Oath to Support and Defend the Constitution

- Cindy Hammond

Each year thousands of people swear to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States, and each year millions of people depend on those same people to do just that. There was a day when Duty, Honor and Liberty meant something to each person of the United States of America, and not just on the Fourth of July, our Independence Day. Listed below are the oaths that thousands of people in our military take each year, our Senators and our Representatives every other year, and our President each year. Many of those same people take this oath to heart and are to be commended to it, because they did everything in their power to defend as much of the Constitution as they could, to the best of their ability, including the 1st and 2nd Amendments.

 Presidential oath of office

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

State Representative

“I, (name of Member), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God” 

Senator's Oath of Office

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."

The Commissioning Oath

"I, _____ , having been appointed an officer in the (Service) of the United States, as indicated above in the grade of _____ do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservations or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office upon which I am about to enter; So help me God." 

The Enlistment Oath

"I, _____, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God." 

These days it's hard to know if the youth of today are gleaning any patriotism from their school, their family, and their church. When I was growing up, each school day in our classroom we stood at our desks with our right hand over our heart, and while facing the flag at the front of the room, we said the Pledge of Allegiance. Now we are seeing the deterioration of our country from within our own government, and also with our citizens, the political climate is hostile, the economy is bleak, and our Commander-In-Chief appears to be siding with the enemies of our country, and his enemies are our country's allies. It's time to put the Pledge of Allegiance back in the schools, complete with the part that mentions God, so that our nation will be truly blessed again. 

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

If it weren't for the patriotism of our citizens, our Senators, Representatives, military and our past presidents, this country would not have lasted for 236 years since our Declaration of Independence. The U.S. Constitution has been the rock that provides our country with the stability that it needed to endure wars, depression, and even huge social changes.

Set aside some time each week to read the U.S. Constitution, and even play the Constitution Game "The Constitution Quest"

Flags at Obama's inauguration made in Belgium?

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - When President Barack Obama was sworn in for his second term on January 21, it's a decent bet that one of the flags fluttering behind him on the U.S. Capitol was made in Belgium.

The Waelkens flag company, based in the small town of Oostrozebeke in Flanders, supplies around 2,000 flags a year to the United States, with clients including the Pentagon and other U.S. government departments as well as the United Nations.

But it's not just the far side of the Atlantic where the company is gaining ground - it also makes flags for NATO, national militaries, the European Union and just about every country in the world, from China to Nigeria.

"We have a lot of know-how about how we have to make flags and a big tradition of embroidery," said Benedikt Waelkens, who runs the company with his brother, David. "There aren't a lot of people in the world who can and are making handmade flags."

Benedikt said clients keep coming back because of the company's unique flag-making knowledge and its faithfulness to tradition. National and institutional flags have extremely precise guidelines about how they must be made - down to the number of stitches per centimeter and specific fabric shades.

What began in 1928 as a family business making embroidered garments for priests is now, four generations later, an international enterprise with a growing reputation.

Nearly half of Waelkens' flags are embroidered - some even by hand - setting the company apart from competitors who produce printed flags. David believes embroidery carries more symbolism and likens it to art, since a handmade flag can take four or five days to complete.

Benedikt said a large, handmade U.S. flag costs about 400 euros ($540). Waelkens has four-year contracts with the EU, NATO and the United Nations - each of which have scores of buildings and hundreds of ceremonial rooms that fly flags.

Benedikt explains the business in terms of hierarchy: the highest-profile EU or UN officials have the nicest flags in their offices - made of silk, embroidered and with fringe. But below the top, there are hundreds if not thousands of other civil servants who also have banners, albeit of lesser quality.

During the financial crisis in 2007, Waelkens moved its screen printing business to Romania, but the brothers say they want to keep most of the company in Belgium for tradition's sake.

Benedikt wouldn't give details on the privately held company's income but said 2012 was its best year. He attributes the success in part to consolidation in the industry as well as to the company's vertically integrated model - it makes, sells and markets its flags and even produces the flagpoles.

But perhaps the key to the business is its personal, family touch - some of the brothers' current employees also worked for their father and with their grandfather.

"Human capital of the company is the most important thing," said Benedickt. "Happiness of your people, you cannot buy that."

CHURCHGOER SHOOTS BACK WHEN TERRORISTS ATTACK

'History and common sense prove that gun-free zones are dangerous'
- Bob Unruh

“In Israel teachers and parents, serving as school aides, are armed at all times on school grounds, with semi-automatic weapons. Since this policy was adopted in the 1970s, attacks by gunmen at schools in Israel have ceased” 

Charl Van Wyk, who carried a gun to a church service, shot back at terrorists bent on mass slaughter and ultimately was credited with saving hundreds of lives, says politicians should rise above the “politically correct” and do what’s right to save the lives of children and teachers.

Weighing in on the current debate in America over the public’s access to self-defense, he told WND that only in a “sheer utopian fantasy” would people expect that “homicidal maniacs” would follow gun laws.

“In Israel teachers and parents, serving as school aides, are armed at all times on school grounds, with semi-automatic weapons. Since this policy was adopted in the 1970s, attacks by gunmen at schools in Israel have ceased,” he said.

“In 2004 Thailand adopted a similar approach for safety of children. It may be politically incorrect, but it does have the advantage of saving the lives of innocent children and teachers. The policy? Encouraging teachers to carry firearms.” he continued.

“On 27 April 2004, the Associated Press reported, ‘Interior Minister Bhokin Bhalakula ordered provincial governors to give teachers licenses to buy guns if they want to even though it would mean bringing firearms into the classrooms when the region’s 925 schools reopen May 17 after two months of summer holiday.’

“Though Thailand’s government is extremely hostile to gun ownership in general, it has recognized that teachers ought to be able to safeguard their students and themselves,” he said.

“Maybe we can learn something from these countries.”

Currently, the Obama administration is offering numerous proposals to ban certain weapons, certain types and generally make the public’s access to firearms more difficult.

Van Wyk’s own story of self-defense – and the defense of the innocent – dates to July 25, 1993 – the day that would become known as the day of the St. James Massacre. That was when terrorists invaded the St. James Church in South Africa with automatic weapons. About a dozen members of the congregation were killed, and dozens more were injured.

But the terrorists fled when Van Wyk, who was carrying a handgun with him, returned fire, injuring one terrorist.

Van Wyk was recognized by authorities with a commendation for his actions, which likely saved dozens, if not hundreds, of lives.

Sign Tea Party petition to defund Obamacare now!

Multiple bills to repeal ObamaCare have been passed by the House of Representatives only to die a quick death in the Democrat controlled Senate. Since all budget bills originate in the House, it's time to take a different tack by preventing the law harming everyday Americans by defunding it.

The cornerstone of Barack Obama's legacy so far is his Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or as it's better known: ObamaCare. ObamaCare is nothing but a government takeover of the healthcare industry! It takes funding from Medicare, increases taxes, and contains an unconstitutional individual mandate that requires every American to purchase insurance! Not only will this eventually lead to the rationing of healthcare and long waits for routine treatments, it sets a dangerous precedent that could eventually lead to the federal takeover of other large segments of the economy!

Health care accounts for nearly 20% of the US economy and by 2014, the Federal government will have taken over most of the industry when ObamaCare is fully implemented. We see through the tricks of leaving the worst of the legislation to take affect after the 2012 election and we need to stop it before America "has a chance to see what's in it'. We will not only be able to see it, we will feel it in the worst way.

Sign the petition to tell your member of Congress and two Senators how you feel and that you will not stand for their inaction to prevent the damage to our economy and healthcare system inflicted by a law passed without the support of the people.

Sign The Petition Now!

PARENTS GAIN ACCESS TO SECRET SCHOOL CURRICULUM

Lawmaker confirms immediate changes in controversial operations- John Griffing

AUSTIN, Texas – Parents of school children across Texas now are gaining access to a previously secret public school curriculum, according to an announcement from a state lawmaker.

The CSCOPE program, an online offering that until now has prohibited, under penalty of law, teachers from sharing the lessons with parents, stirred up controversy because of its various lessons – some that were taken offline after the questions arose.

Among those issues were that the curriculum at one point taught the Boston Tea Party was an act of terrorism and Christians were cannibals, and forced students to draw a socialist flag while imagining a new socialist country.

Teachers also would have been exposed to criminal penalties for sharing CSCOPE lesson content with parents, and educators were required to teach strictly from the CSCOPE lesson plan, without additions or changes.

But Sen. Dan Patrick, R-Houston, whose Texas Senate Education Committee held a public hearing last week investigating CSCOPE, said there now have been “significant changes.”

The Texas Education Service Center Curriculum Collaborative, which owns CSCOPE, agreed to the following changes, effectively immediately, he said.

Those include:

• All future meetings of the TESCCC governing board, beginning with the February meeting, will be public with all the respective notice requirements being met.
• The TESCCC will begin a joint review process of all CSCOPE lessons with the SBOE beginning with Social Studies.
• Amendment of all Terms of Use Agreements, signed by both teachers and districts, removing civil or criminal penalties associated with the release of CSCOPE content.
• Clarifying that all teachers and districts may post any and all CSCOPE lessons that they deem necessary.

In addition to these immediate transparency and quality control changes, CSCOPE will also undergo structural, governance, and other changes, including ending the non-profit 501(c)3 arrangement that incorporates CSCOPE, posting lessons online, and creating a standing curriculum review panel comprised of parents, teachers, school administrators, members of the SBOE, and TESCCC board members.

The online courses no longer will be mandatory, either, the senator said.

“CSCOPE is notifying all participating school districts that lessons are not intended to be taught verbatim, and the governing board generally recommends that local districts utilize CSCOPE lessons solely as a resource. Until CSCOPE lessons can be reviewed through a collaborative process with the SBOE and TESCCC, districts are strongly encouraged to review all lessons at the local level, to ensure that lessons are appropriate for their students,” the senator’s announcement said.

VISIONS OF JESUS APPEARING TO MUSLIMS?

Middle East evangelists report nagging dreams leading to conversions- Michael Carl

“Your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions,” asserts the promise of God from the book of Joel.

Yet some of those men reportedly seeing visions and dreams are neither Jews nor Christians … but Muslims.

What’s more, Middle East evangelists report the dreamers are coming to Christianity because of their visions of Jesus.

According to a CBN report, Christian Middle East evangelist Hazem Farraj’s television program “Reflections” is reaching a large Muslim audience. Farraj told CBN that he hears from Muslims who report having dreams or visions of Jesus.

Tom Doyle, an evangelist, pastor and the E3 Partners Ministry director for the Middle East and Central Asia says it’s true: Muslims are coming to Christianity through dreams and visions.

“Great things are happening in the Muslim world,” Doyle said in an email to WND. “It’s all very unexpected.”

Doyle told WND that he is familiar with Farraj’s program and that Jesus is breaking through where missionaries have not succeeded.

“We’ve been seeing this for 15 years now, where Muslims are no longer Muslims but are Jesus followers,” Doyle said. “It’s someone who is a Christian, someone who is willing to die for Jesus.

“It all started with them with a dream,” Doyle said. “They had a Jesus dream, and some of them had many Jesus dreams. They would seek out Christians after a while because the dreams would get so intense that they wanted an answer.”

Doyle explains there is still a difficult process involved for a Muslim to convert to Christianity, even for those who have the dreams.

“Nobody goes to bed a Muslim and wakes up a Christian,” Doyle said. “They have a couple of barriers between them and Jesus. They’ve been told that Christians worship three gods. They’re told that the Bible is corrupted. It’s just what they’ve been told, kind of a party line rhetoric.”

Yet dreams, Doyle says, become a starting point.

“They’re motivated to find a Bible, find a Christian and ask what this means. Ninety-five percent of the Muslims who are now Jesus followers say that they were led to Christ by someone explaining the dream to them,” Doyle said.

Doyle says he wrote a book called “Dreams and Visions,” in which he recorded a series of real stories from Muslims who follow Christ and who did so because they had a dream about Jesus. He adds that the phenomenon is taking place in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt, Syria and on the West Bank.

Doyle says he knows of one Muslim who was on a hajj, a pilgrimage to Mecca, and he had a daytime vision of Jesus.

“I met a man yesterday who said he saw a Jesus dream and he didn’t know what to do with it, so he got deeper into his Muslim faith,” Doyle said. “Then he went to Mecca on the hajj, and on the first time around the Kabah, he saw a vision of Jesus standing in front of him.”

Doyle said the man told him Jesus had a message: “You’re on the wrong path; you’re on the wrong road. Leave this place and come follow me.”

“This man is getting baptized in the next few weeks,” Doyle said.

Doyle believes that the phenomenon will continue and that the stories are taking place in countries that the West believes are bad and dangerous places.

Former PLO operative turned Christian and peace activist Walid Shoebat says he believes Jesus is compensating for the weaknesses of the Western Church.

“I had first doubted the countless stories of Muslims becoming Christian as a result of dreams until I met some of them and heard their testimonies,” Shoebat said. “My conclusion to this phenomenon is that Christ succeeds where the church fails.”

Doyle agrees. He says Jesus should get the credit.

State Dept. Recruits Muslim Foreign Service Officers at Jihadist Conf.

The Obama administration is covertly recruiting Muslims to work at the State Department as Foreign Service officers representing the United States in one of 265 American embassies, consulates and diplomatic missions worldwide.

It appears to be part of the administration’s Muslim outreach effort, which includes a variety of controversial moves. Among them Homeland Security meetings with extremist Islamic organizations, sending an America-bashing mosque leader (Feisal Abdul Rauf) who blames U.S. foreign policy for the 9/11 attacks on a Middle Eastern outreach mission and revamping the way federal agents are trained to combat terrorism by eliminating all materials that shed a negative light on Muslims. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton even signed a special order to allow the reentry of two radical Islamic academics whose terrorist ties long banned them from the U.S.

Now comes news of a secretive State Department campaign, discovered in the course of a Judicial Watch investigation, to add Muslims to its roster. Presumably, the new recruits will be deployed around the globe to help the agency fulfill its mission of promoting the country’s international relations. The campaign seems to be headed by Mark Ward, the Deputy Special Coordinator in the State Department’s Office of Middle East Transition.

Ward held a 90-minute seminar at a recent convention sponsored by two groups—Muslim American Society (MAS) and the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA)—with known ties to radical Islam. Both nonprofits are associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, which is known as the parent organization of Hamas and al Qaeda. In fact, the Investigative Project on Terrorism reports that MAS was founded as the U.S. chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood which strives to indoctrinate the world with Islamic Sharia law.

Yet there was a U.S. State Department official, side by side at a radical Islamic powwow in Chicago with a number of speakers who advocate violent jihad. Among them was Kifah Mustapha, a fundraiser at terrorist organization (Holy Land Foundation) convicted of funneling millions to Hamas and Jamal Badawi, a MAS founder who praised the jihad of Gaza terrorists during a speech titled “Understanding Jihad and Martyrdom.”

OBAMA'S COMMERCE PICK IS MAJOR MEDIA MATTERS FUNDER

Presidential campaign bundler chaired failed bank seized by feds
- Aaron Klein

President Obama is close to choosing Chicago businesswoman Penny Pritzker, the finance chair of his 2008 presidential campaign, as his next commerce secretary, according to multiple news media accounts.

WND first exposed that Pritzker is a primary funder of the radical Media Matters for America activist group.

Other questions may be raised about Pritzker’s financial history, primarily her family’s ownership of a bank that was seized and shut down by the feds in 2001 after it was accused of unsound financial activities and predatory lending practices.

Pritzker herself served as chairman of the failed bank, Superior Bank, from 1991-1994.

Last year, Media Matters found itself in hot water after the Daily Caller exposed the group’s purported illicit tactics, including compiling a de facto enemies list; announcing an all-out campaign of “guerrilla warfare and sabotage” aimed at the Fox News Channel; and reportedly seeking to investigate the personal lives of reporters and news personalities.

The information came amid reports White House staffers held regular meetings and even a weekly conference call with Media Matters

Extremist Group Exposed Working With Obama’s Justice Department

- Alex Newman

As if Obama’s politicized Justice Department was not embroiled in enough scandals —Fast and Furious gun-trafficking to Mexican drug cartels, the subsequent coverup and lies, disgraced Attorney General Eric Holder held in criminal contempt of Congress, lawless“legal memos” purporting to justify assassinating U.S. citizens without charge or trial,training police to believe Americans may be terrorists for political activism, and more — there is now yet another travesty to add to the growing list. Documents released recently exposed the department working intimately with one of the most controversial extremist groups in America.  

E-mails released last Tuesday by the non-partisan Judicial Watch group showed that Obama’s increasingly out-of-control Department of Justice was collaborating closely with the ultra-leftist Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). To make matters worse, hate-mongering propaganda issued by the widely criticized organization — ridiculed and blasted by critics as a discredited far-left attack group — was implicated last year in an attempted mass-shooting at the conservative-leaning Family Research Councilheadquarters in Washington, D.C.

After the failed terror attack scheme to murder FRC employees, concerned conservatives and even some homosexual groups all across America expressed increasing alarm over the dangerous rhetoric and propaganda distributed by the SPLC, equating mainstream pro-family and Christian groups with the organizations like KKK, neo-Nazis, and terrorists, for example. The SPLC and its hysterical attacks were immediately thrust into the spotlight — especially after it was revealed that the shooter and would-be terrorist used the organization’s “hate map” propaganda to select his target. 

"Let me be clear that [attempted mass-murderer] Floyd Corkins was responsible for firing the shot yesterday," said FRC President Perkins after the shooting, which injured a security guard who promptly subdued the unhinged individual before he could go on his intended killing spree. "But Corkins was given a license to shoot an unarmed man by organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center that have been reckless in labeling organizations hate groups because they disagree with them on public policy."

After the shooting at the pro-family organization by the deranged homosexual activist, Judicial Watch decided to find out how much influence the SPLC had on government agencies. So, it filed a request under the Freedom of Information Act to find out. The correspondence it received between the discredited organization and Obama’s DOJ revealed several controversies. Among them: “questionable behavior by agency personnel” during negotiations to have disgraced SPLC co-founder Morris Dees speak at a mandatory “diversity training event” for high-ranking federal officials, the public interest watchdog explained.

“The Southern Poverty Law Center has, in the past few years, taken to labeling organizations with conservative views on social issues as ‘hate groups,’” explained Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, citing widely held concerns among Americans over the SPLC’s oftentimes slanderous attacks on mainstream and popular groups with which it disagrees. “Given these fawning e-mails, one would have thought that a head of state was visiting the Justice Department.” 

The almost two-dozen pages of e-mails revealed that SPLC co-founder Morris Dees, who has come under heavy criticism fromacross the political spectrum as a con-artist, fraud, hate monger, and more, was supposed to have his speech at the DOJ “simulcast to everyone’s PC throughout the Department.” DOJ officials working with the SPLC, as is evident throughout the chain of correspondence, regard the controversial figure as an “inspiration” — even for young children.  

To Judicial Watch and numerous other organizations, however, such treatment is highly inappropriate considering the “civil rights” group’s inflammatory propaganda. “The SPLC is an attack group, and it is disturbing that it has premier access to our Department of Justice, which is charged with protecting the First Amendment rights of all Americans,” noted JW chief Fitton. “And these emails further confirm that politically correct ‘mandatory’ diversity training programs are a waste of taxpayer money.”      

Conservative, Christian, and libertarian activists and organizations have long been alarmed by the SPLC’s shameful attacks on loyal Americans and the group’s efforts to spread potentially dangerous disinformation among the law-enforcement community. In fact, The New American has spent considerable space in its magazine exposing the SPLC, especially to educate law-enforcement officials about the false and misleading propaganda the organization disseminates. But liberty-minded and socially conservative forces are not the only ones suspicious of the far-left group and its co-founder.

PIERS MORGAN: L.A. MURDER SPREE HAS 'NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS'

- John Nolte

Funny thing about this new policy of Pier Morgan's--I mean his not wanting to bring politics into America's latest mass-murder spree. Because in the past, whenever the CNN host was able to exploit dead innocents and sanctimoniously demand the government restrict our Second Amendment civil rights, he has done so without shame or conscience.

And yet, here's Morgan less than an hour ago:

The LA cop-killer murder spree has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with deranged criminality. I hope they catch him asap.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan February 7, 2013

So if I understand Morgan, this particular murder spree is not about "the gun" or "access to guns" or "wild West America," but about "deranged criminality." And, this particular murder spree, unlike all the others since Morgan crossed the pond, "has nothing to do with politics."

I wonder what makes this particular murder spree earn a special Piers Morgan exemption?

Could it be because what's being reported as the alleged murderer's manifesto not only mentions Piers Morgan by name, but says, "Mr. Morgan … I want you to know that I agree with you 100% on enacting stricter firearm laws[.]"

Apparently, when the suspected mass-murderer is a Piers Morgan fan, his crimes win a Piers Morgan exemption.

You know, the idea of bringing politics into a tragedy used to sicken me. But ever since Arizona, Obama's mercenary media have helped me to see the light.

Veterans Association Slams Obama’s Drone Policy

- Western Journalism

National Vietnam and Gulf War Veterans Coalition

Position Paper on Drones targeting American citizens:

Ever since “UBL died” and “Obama lied”, this administration has had a record of smoke and mirrors unrivaled in the annals of American political history. The latest is the “wise” and “legal” and “ethical” drone strikes on Americans and others associated with Al Qaeda and its “associates.”
The Coalition has examined the sixteen page document “leaked” to NBC News justifying these drone strikes and finds several problems with this “document.” First, it found justification for the much maligned operation(s) into Cambodia during the Vietnam era. Second, it found justification for enhanced interrogation, also much maligned. Third, but not finally, it found justification for the much maligned operation into Iraq. All justifications made by the very same political forces that maligned these operations in their different time frames.

To a degree, it also found justification for drone strikes against Al Qaeda and its allies. They were justifications for normal counterinsurgency operations using these advanced weapons. However, missing was justification for going outside Executive Order 12333 banning assassinations as a national policy, outside the normal bounds of the rules of land warfare. The so-called justifications showed that the Obama Administration is either contemplating or justifying a national policy of assassination against the terrorist network that the administration has belatedly acknowledged we are at war with.

Previously, most notably in Vietnam through the Phoenix Program, the legally accepted way to operate against a “terrorist” organization was to identify first the positions that were to be “targeted” (regardless of who held those positions) and previously made illegal by whatever appropriate means. Once the prior illegality had been established and decision made to dismantle the organization, priorities were set.


First would be recruit in place. Second would be to cause the target to defect to the legitimate side. Third would be to run an operation to capture the target. Fourth would be to run an operation; and due to circumstances of the operation, the target is killed. The other priorities will not be discussed because of the nature of the new threat and the probability they have no relevance today.

The document “leaked” shows none of these backgrounds and legalities. The bulk of the document deals with details not relevant to operations against American citizens in a terrorist organization. It lacks in details making these operations “legal” under the rules of land warfare. It stretches the outer boundaries of the rules of land warfare, almost to extinction. For example, “National Self Defense” (page 15) appears to be a huge stretch, if not an outright violation of Executive Order 12333.

Obama Murdered 16-year-old U.S. Citizen

- Western Journalism

"The Left, as we have seen in the last few days, are coming to realize what conservatives have known for some time: We have a dictator in the Oval Office."

On February 4, a secret White House memo was leaked, entitled “Lawfulness of a Lethal Operation Directed Against a U.S. Citizen who is a Senior Operational Leader of Al Qa’ida or An Associated Force.” The memo in effect states that the President has the authority to kill any American citizen at anytime for any reason without proof, without due process, and with absolutely no oversight.


No one blinked an eye when American-born al-Qaeda-linked terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki was vaporized with a drone strike in September of 2011. But when his sixteen-year-old son, Abdulrahman, an American citizen born in Denver, Colorado, was vaporized in the same manner two weeks later without any proof that he had any connection to al-Qaeda, both the Left and Right cried foul.

Abdulrahman, along with several other teenagers, was engaged in the “terrorist” act of taking part in an outdoor barbecue.

According to the Abdulrahman’s grandfather:

To kill a teenager is just unbelievable, really, and they claim that he is an al-Qaeda militant. It’s nonsense,” said Nasser al-Awlaki, a former Yemeni agriculture minister who was Anwar al-Awlaki’s father and the boy’s grandfather.

In fact, if we look at the key passage in Obama’s secret kill list memo, its legal justification does not simply require connection to al-Qaeda, but that he be deemed an “operational leader”:

The condition that an operational leader present an ‘imminent’ threat of violent attack against the United States does not require the United States to have clear evidence that a specific attack on U.S. persons and interests will take place in the immediate future.

But whether Abdulrahman was a leader of al-Qaeda or not is really not the point. The point of the secret memo that has everyone up in arms is that Obama not only does not have to grant American citizens abroad due process, but that there is no oversight to the kill list; that Obama does not have to prove to any entity, including his own Administration, that the person killed presents a threat to the United States.

Of course, the next question becomes: If Obama can suspend due process and murder American citizens abroad, does he then have the authority to do the same thing on American soil?

This was the question asked and ignored on the day after the secret memo was released, whereby Obama abruptly left the press conference, leaving White House spokesman Jay Carney flapping in the wind. Carney called Obama’s unchecked power of “surgical drone strikes” “legal, ethical, and wise,” which sounded very pithy, but never answered the question.

Of course, we already know the answer to this question, as Obama’s legal justification as stated in the memo does not distinguish whether the American citizen is living in the United States or abroad.

The Left, as we have seen in the last few days, are coming to realize what conservatives have known for some time: We have a dictator in the Oval Office.

Catholic bishops reject revised ObamaCare contraceptive rule

Catholic bishops have rejected the Obama administration's latest proposal on mandatory contraceptive coverage, vowing to continue to fight for changes before the policy becomes final.

After reviewing the administration's proposal unveiled last week, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said it stands by its earlier concerns.

"Because the stakes are so high, we will not cease from our effort to assure that healthcare for all does not mean freedom for few," New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan, president of the bishops' conference, said in a statement.

Under the federal health care overhaul, the administration has pressed to require most employers to provide access to free contraceptive coverage.

The rule exempts houses of worship and creates an "accommodation" for religious-affiliated employers like schools and hospitals -- at which employees could obtain contraceptive coverage through a separate policy.

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, though, said a bigger buffer is needed between religious charities and any third party arranging contraceptive coverage. Bishops also want a clearer statement that faith-affiliated hospitals and other nonprofits are religious ministries. And church leaders continue pressing for an exemption for owners of for-profit business who say the requirement forces them to violate their religious beliefs.

LATE-TERM ABORTIONIST 'IGNORES' DYING PATIENT

Source describes 'medical procedure' gone wrong

Officials for Operation Rescue, one of the cutting edge pro-life organizations in the U.S. ever since it bought an abortion clinic to shut it down and convert the building into its pro-life headquarters in Wichita, are reporting the death of a woman in Maryland after her “medical procedure” went wrong and the abortionist couldn’t be reached.

The name of the victim, who was 33 weeks pregnant, was as yet unavailable, but Cheryl Sullenger, senior policy adviser for OR, said trusted sources had described the death of the 29-year-old woman after Leroy Carhart, who does late-term abortions out of the Germantown Reproductive Health Services, started the procedure and then was unreachable when there were complications.

The woman ultimately died at a local hospital, Sullenger’s source confirmed.

The 29-year-old apparently was undergoing a multi-day procedure used by late-term abortionists, Sullenger said.

“Sidewalk counselors saw her every day from Sunday to Wednesday. She appeared, later in the week, to be pale and weak,” Sullenger told WND today.

Early Thursday, there were complications, including chest pain and other discomfort, and the woman tried to reach Carhart but he was unavailable, the source reported. The woman then was transported to a local emergency room by her family where emergency workers also tried to reach Carhart, unsuccessfully.

The complication, apparently bleeding into the abdominal cavity, got worse, and she “coded,” or had her heart stop, six times, Sullenger’s source confirmed.

Emergency room doctors ultimately were unsuccessful at reviving her.

The source, who insisted on anonymity, reported an investigation into the death has been launched.

“We believe this incident supports our belief that this is a dangerous abortion procedure,” Sullenger told WND. She said it involves a shot that kills the unborn baby, and then the abortionist leaves the mothers unmonitored.

THE NO. 1 FAITH MOVIE FOR 40 WEEKS!

'Isaiah 9:10 Judgment' still on top of the sales charts
WASHINGTON – “The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment,” a two-hour documentary released last March that illustrates the striking parallels between ancient Israel’s fall and the decline of America since 9/11 – remains the No. 1 faith movie in the country for an unprecedented 40 weeks.

It has also been ranked near the top 10 of all documentaries in that time period.

Producer Joseph Farah said he is immensely pleased with the performance of the movie, which is a documentary treatment of the message found in the best-selling book “The Harbinger” by Jonathan Cahn, which has been on the top-10 New York Times list every week since last year when it was released in January.

“We put our money into the production of what we saw as a very worthwhile movie and couldn’t budget any more for marketing – but this film appears to be marketing itself,” he said.

In January, “The Harbinger,” by Cahn, a messianic rabbi from New Jersey, exploded onto the publishing scene, immediately becoming a surprise New York Times bestseller, already read by hundreds of thousands nationwide.

See the new teaching series released by “Harbinger” author Jonathan Cahn.

One week after “The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment” was released last March it rocketed to the No. 1 position, only dropping down to as low as No. 3 for a brief time during the Christmas season, replaced by movies about the birth of Jesus.

“A number of years ago, as I was standing at the edge of Ground Zero in New York City, I came across the first puzzle piece of an ancient biblical mystery and a prophetic message known as ‘The Harbinger’ that concerns the future of America,” explains Cahn, who helped write the two-hour documentary “The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment” and narrates it.

Cahn says he has found nine harbingers that tie the problems America has experienced beginning Sept. 11, 2001, with parallels that led to the destruction of ancient Israel.

What’s behind the punishment for fake guns in schools?

- Jon Rappoport

In the latest episode of Ban Fake Guns, we have a boy suspended from school in Florence, Arizona, for carrying, yes, a picture of a gun on his computer. Screen saver. This is surely a sign of complete mental breakdown by school officials. And yet one more reason to home school.

Steve Watson, writing at infowars, runs down the recent litany of fake gun crimes at schools across America, resulting in student suspensions, suspension hearings, and actual school lockdowns:

Transparent toy gun. South Carolina.

Gun built from Lego bricks. Massachusetts.

Two kids talking about a Nerf gun. New York.

An actual Nerf gun. New York.

A pink bubble gun. Pennsylvania.

A paper gun. Pennsylvania.

Pointing a finger and saying “pow.” Maryland.

Playing cops and robbers with fingers. Maryland.

Making a gun “hand gesture.” Oklahoma.

Should we assume that because cops and school officials can’t stop real crimes, they’re settling for stopping fake crimes?

Can you hear the typical response to these school suspensions and lockdowns? “Well, everybody in the community is on edge these days, after Sandy Hook.”

That remark garners a “Mmm, well, sure.”

Then, the follow-up: “It’s unfortunate that school officials and police MAY HAVE overreacted. Suspension from school is PROBABLY too much. These kids need some form of LESSER DISCIPLINE, and, of course, EDUCATION about the dangers of guns.”

And there you have it. It’s a sleight-of-hand trick. Go completely overboard with an officially certified insane action (suspension, lockdown), and people will ask for something slightly less insane instead.

"Well, shooting old Bob in the leg and blowing up his car because he was sitting on his back porch cleaning his rifle was probably a bit much. A few days in jail would have taught him the right lesson.”

In schools, the slightly less insane (but still quite insane) solution to fake guns might go something like this:

“Today, class, we’re going to learn about how dangerous it is to have a picture of a gun.”

“You see, Jimmy, when you build a gun out of lego, you think it’s all right because you don’t know any better. But some other child might be terrified when she sees the gun. And that’s why we’re here. To protect everybody from bad feelings.”

Jimmy scratches his five-year-old head and wonders what world he was born into. He’s just been introduced to “greatest good for the greatest number,” “you have no freedom,” and “least bad for the lowest number,” all in five seconds.

What we’re seeing here is a mandate to change the culture. Teach these kids that any reference to, symbol of, or thought about guns is wrong.

Welcome to operant conditioning.

Maxine Waters Admits That Big Brother Is Watching

Maxine Waters: ‘Obama Has Put In Place’ Secret Database With ‘Everything On Everyone’

"The President has put in place an  organization with the kind of database that no one has ever seen before  in life," Representative Maxine Waters told Roland Martin on Monday.  "That's going to be very, very powerful," Waters said. "That database will have information about everything on every individual on ways that it's never been done before and whoever runs for President on the Democratic ticket has to deal with that. They're going to go down with that database and the concerns of those people because they can't get around it. And he's [President Obama] been very smart. It's very powerful what he's leaving in place."

SURPRISE INVESTIGATIONS AIMED AT HOMESCHOOLERS

Connecticut cites need for 'confidential behavioral health assessment'- Michael F. Havluck

In what critics are seeing as an ultimate power grab, state officials in Connecticut are pushing forward a bill to require state investigations of children like never before – calling for a “confidential behavioral health assessment” of every public school student in grades 6, 8, 10 and 12, and every homeschool student at ages 12, 14 and 17.

The proposed Bill 374 is being described as the ultimate home invasion.

“It’s outrageous that state officials could come into private homes and potentially remove children if they are assessed as a threat as a result of the investigation,” Home School Legal Defense Association Senior Counsel Dee Black told WND in an interview.

“Regardless of what state officials claim, I don’t believe the results [of the investigations] will be held confidential.”

Black, who provides legal assistance and advice for HSLDA members in what is ironically nicknamed the “Constitution State,” sees this proposed measure as anything but constitutional.

And when asked if the psychological tests given by the social services hands the state too much unchecked power – enabling government officials to seize and tag children as mentally unfit or maladjusted – Black answered definitively.

“No question about it,” asserted the Memphis State University School of Law graduate. “I don’t think people who live in a free society should be forced to give into mental evaluations of their children.”

Napolitano: Obama Gives Himself Permission To Kill

- Andrew P. Napolitano

"Unless Obama knows that an attack from Yemen on our shores is imminent, he'd be hard-pressed to argue that a guy in a car in the desert 10,000 miles from here -- no matter his intentions -- poses a threat so imminent to the U.S. that he needs to be killed on the spot in order to save the lives of Americans who would surely die during the time it would take to declare war on the country that harbors him, or during the time it would take to arrest him. Under no lawful circumstances may he use CIA agents for killing. Surely, CIA agents can use deadly force defensively to protect themselves and their assets, but they may not use it offensively. Federal laws against murder apply to the president and to all federal agents and personnel in their official capacities, wherever they go on the planet." -Judge Napolitano

After stonewalling for more than a year federal judges and ordinary citizens who sought the revelation of its secret legal research justifying the presidential use of drones to kill persons overseas -- even Americans -- claiming the research was so sensitive and so secret that it could not be revealed without serious consequences, the government sent a summary of its legal memos to an NBC newsroom earlier this week.


This revelation will come as a great surprise, and not a little annoyance, to U.S. District Court Judge Colleen McMahon, who heard many hours of oral argument during which the government predicted gloom and doom if its legal research were subjected to public scrutiny. She very reluctantly agreed with the feds, but told them she felt caught in "a veritable Catch-22," because the feds have created "a thicket of laws and precedents that effectively allow the executive branch of our government to proclaim as perfectly lawful certain actions that seem on their face incompatible with our Constitution and laws, while keeping the reasons for their conclusion a secret."

She was writing about President Obama killing Americans and refusing to divulge the legal basis for claiming the right to do so. Now we know that basis.

The undated and unsigned 16-page document leaked to NBC refers to itself as a Department of Justice white paper. Its logic is flawed, its premises are bereft of any appreciation for the values of the Declaration of Independence and the supremacy of the Constitution, and its rationale could be used to justify any breaking of any law by any "informed, high-level official of the U.S. government."

NUGENT SMACKS 'GANGSTERS IN THE WHITE HOUSE'

Obama says he respects 2nd Amendment? 'And I'm a gay pirate'


Rock music legend Ted Nugent, one of the strongest voices in defense of the Second Amendment, is making his voice heard loud and clear as the latest debate over proposed gun-control legislation plays out.

Earlier in the week, Nugent engaged in a feisty debate with CNN host and gun-control advocate Piers Morgan. Despite the push for more restrictions on gun rights in Washington and in states around the country, Nugent fired back with a vigorous defense of what he says is the overwhelming majority of gun owners.

“99.99 percent of the gun owners of America are wonderful people that you are hanging around with here today, perfectly safe, perfectly harmless, wonderful, loving, giving, generous caring people. Would you leave us the hell alone?” demanded Nugent. “Go after the nut jobs. Go after the murderers, because I don’t know any.”

Nugent, who is also a National Rifle Association board member and now a WND columnist, was typically straight-talking with us as he assessed his confrontation with Morgan.

“I am convinced that Piers Morgan was sent by God to represent everything that doesn’t agree with Ted Nugent, because you’ve got to be the devil’s advocate or the devil to argue with me,” Nugent told WND. “I’m a simple man. I’m 64 years clean and sober. I never went to college because I was too busy learning stuff. …

“In fact, I’m saving money on dog food this week because I’m just letting my three Labradors lick the shrapnel from Piers’s skull out of my boot cleats,” he said.

Nugent then explained why he believes history and practice prove that taking away guns never mean greater safety for the people.

“If you try to argue that the Chicago, Mexico, Washington, D.C., Rwanda gun-free zone is somehow desirable, then you are either as equally evil as the murderers that slaughter innocent people in those gun-free zones or you are opening the door and rolling out the red carpet, that is red because it’s saturated with the blood of innocent victims that are piled higher in gun-free zones than anywhere in the world,” Nugent said.

“Anybody that dares debate me about what the Second Amendment means and whether free Americans have the right to keep and bear arms as a gift from God, a right from God as guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution, I will do to you what I did to Piers. I will embarrass you, and I will make you look like some subservient sheep from England,” he said.

The very first thing Nugent does in his new column is attack the premise that some firearms can be restricted because no one supposedly needs them.

“Common-sense people know it’s not the Bill of Needs. Common-sense people know you don’t need two homes and you don’t need more than one TV. Common-sense people know that quality of life and freedom has absolutely nothing to do with needs,” said Nugent. “Then when you scrutinize the self-evident truth of God-given individual rights, the Founding Fathers wrote it down, not because they got together and had a good idea. They knew that the king denied these self-evident truths and these God-given individual rights.

“So we wrote down the self-evident, truth-based, God-given rights that we the people in this new land, free of kings, free of emperors, free of tyrants, free of slave drivers, that we will exercise our God-given, instinctual, self-evident, truth-based right to self-defense from any evil force that threatens our gift of life from God and especially power-abusing monsters in government.”

Nugent said he also doesn’t buy President Obama’s claim that he’s proposing “common-sense” gun restrictions or Obama’s claim that he is a great respecter of the Second Amendment.

“I say sure you are, Mr. President, and I’m a gay pirate,” mused Nugent. “One just has to study Barack Obama’s voting record.

Crowd Shows Up In Defense of 2nd Amendment

- Freedom First

Three weeks ago the Oak Harbor city council convened to discuss whether public areas such as city parks, marinas, and council chambers, should be gun free zones in an effort to protect the public. City council member Rick Almberg first asked the mayor to inquire whether one of the attendees, Lucas Yonkman, had a weapon, then made an attempt at a motion to have attendees "check their weapon with the police chief or to leave the premise." which was then voted on. The motion did not pass. Almberg excused himself and left. Mayor Scott Dudley apologized to Yonkman, and commented on the oath of office, theU.S. Constitution and the Constitution of the State of Washington.

The council met again this past Tuesday, and this time there were 160 people in the crowd, many of whom were openly carrying holstered handguns, and rifles in defense of the 2nd Amendment and to show support for wounded Afghanistan veteran, Lucas Yonkman, whom Mr Almberg tried to have removed at the previous meeting. One attendee, Joe Hawkins, addressed Mr Almberg saying "Mr. Almberg, I just want you to know that I have a concealed ham sandwich right here. I don't want you to get up and walk away," and chuckled.

Many of the attendees were there to oppose the unconstitutional gun ban in city parks and the marina. Many spoke out in defense of the 2nd Amendment, and that gun free zones are killing zones, and that "more guns in public places make more people dead." The Second Amendment Foundation had threatened to sue if the ordinance wasn't overturned.

William Frail had an M-1 rifle on his shoulder as he testified. "Sir, my mother was Jew," he said. "My family went to the chambers. I will not go into the night quietly while these two ask me to board the train."

Lucas Yonkman addressed the council as well  "I come to you tonight with a heavy heart," Yonkman said. "I see a beautiful country divided and conflicted. I see a constitution being eroded, and the rights so many have fought and died for totally lost. I see men and woman who are elected leaders pushing personal agendas."

Yonkman believes the answer to mass shootings and community violence will be found in treating those with mental illness, instead of taking guns away.

A few people called for the resignation of fellow city council member, Almberg. The city council eventually voted to overturn the ban, which the interim city attorney, Grant Weed, had told the members was unconstitutional.  After the meeting, he said he hopes the city can move past this and get onto more important business. 

Crowd Packs Heat, Oak Harbor Backs Down

Patriotic Mayor Upholds 2nd Amendment

- Freedom First

On January 15, 2013 a mayor stood up for the 2nd Amendment, Mayor Scott Dudley. It wouldn't be so surprising, except that in this political climate, with people like Professor Seidman urging Americans to give up on the U.S. Constitution, any show of patriotism is a heroic endeavor.

There was a city council meeting in Oak Harbor, WA, to discuss whether or not public places like city parks, or council chambers should be gun free zones. Wounded military Lucas Yonkman spoke out against it, saying that one of the reasons he carries is to protect himself and the ones around him should the need arise, after which City Councilman Rick Almberg asked Mayor Dudley to ask if Yonkman was "armed right now". Mayor Dudley replied "Would it matter?", then asked the city attorney if "we have to ask". The city attorney answered that "this is the time set aside for the council to accept citizen comments. I'm not sure that there's anything in your council rules or procedures that invite the council to ask questions in return but if the individual is willing to answer the question that's fine but this is the time for citizens to address the council, not the other way around." Mr. Yonkman replied that he was "fully comfortable answering that question. Yes I have a conceal carry permit and I am conceal carrying at this moment. I would hope that people felt comfortable with that due to the fact that I am a trained professional with a weapon and that I served my country for over five years in Afghanistan and sustained wounds in protection of those rights and if there was an issue I would protect any person whether I knew them or not with my own life so I hope you feel comfortable with that."

At which time Almberg made a motion to ask them to check their weapon with the police chief or leave the premises. The motion was seconded and voted on, Almberg and another councilman voted "aye" and four councilman voted against it. Almberg then excused himself and left the chambers.

Mayor Scott Dudley then asked interim city attorney, Grant Weed, about the legality of Almberg's motion. He said that "because of the pre-emption in state law as I think I may have alluded to earlier tonight such an action would be invalid and unforceable and likely would not be a lawful directive in the event a police chief or others were asked to enforce such action, but since such action was not taken it essentially becomes moot."

The next thing that happened was something that in the past would have been commonplace, routine, a city mayor referred the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and defended it. There are those, like Almberg, who side with our tyrannical government, who are making continual attempts to undermine the U.S. Constitution, do away with the Rule of Law and create "feel good" laws that do nothing but undermine what our Founding Fathers stood for, in an effort to create a new society. Mayor Dudley should be applauded for his outstanding comments made after the failed motion to create a gun free zone in the council chambers.

Here's what he said: "That's exactly what seems to be the understanding, I apologize to....  Mr. Yonkman for the situation where in this case we have a couple council member and these were the same council members that also tried to dictate whether you could wear a hat in council chambers now are trying to take your right to bear arms away. They're stating that whether it's their fearful or uncomfortable because of your attendance. I on the other hand feel safer that you're here. If we were to play out hypotheticals in reference to an elected official being concerned about somebody harming it's not going to be coming from the likes of you. So, I appreciate your attendance this evening I think it definitely opens the eyes of the public in reference to how some elected officials are choosing to go up and beyond the scope of their elected position to take away your rights. As a council member," he then held up his framed oath of office, "we end up having to take an oath. This was my oath when I was on the city council. We as council members have to solemnly swear that we would support the Constitution of the United States and the constitution and laws of the State of Washington that we would faithfully and impartially perform and discharge the duties of the office of council member of the city of Oak Harbor. We have to swear to that, that we take that oath. This evening we had a couple council members that were doing just the opposite. And so I apologize for that possible action. I'm glad that we didn't get to that point but once again I apologize for you having to go through that, you took that in great stride. You didn't have to answer the questions by some council members, you still chose to do that, that being said. We need to remember the oath that we took whether it's as a mayor, whether it's as city council members that we are not able to, no matter how much you want to, infringe on the rights of others. That's not our job you're not able to do that."



There are many people like Mayor Dudley, willing to speak out in defense of the U.S. Constitution, there need to be more.

MICHELLE MALKIN TEARS INTO CELEBRITIES: OBAMA AIN’T YOUR DADDY, BOYFRIEND OR GOD

- Jason Howerton

Conservative columnist and Fox News contributor Michelle Malkin, like many Americans, were shocked when actor Chris Rock referred to President Barack Obama as “our boss” and the “dad of the country” on Wednesday. In reality, the president of the United States is an elected official who represents the American people — so they are actually the president’s boss.

“That was a bizarre little appearance there,” Malkin said. “It looked like a hostage video to me.”

She went on: “Maybe it’s dawning on him in some sector of his brain that this is not good for his career…I don’t know a dad who wears mom jeans. So America’s dad wears mom jeans.” Malkin was referring to Obama’s fashion sense, which conservatives have sometimes mocked.

Communists Fear Conservative Racial Unity

- CapBlack

Demo-crack dealers in office and the private sector feel they’re at the threshold of breaking the traditional American identity, which ironically arose from the inter-play of her Black and White populations.

Social program-addiction, Amnesty, gay marriage, demonizing religion, and other destructive innovations have reached a high water mark not seen since the Sickening Sixties.

Obama gives this White communist agenda a Black face whose hue is a force field against criticism, let alone inquiry.

In the cultural crossfire are America’s shrinking White minority and her equally diminishing majority minority, American Blacks.

Back when these two central groups essentially were the American baseline, historic problems existed to be sure.

Resolving them took generations; but at days end, these Americans realized they had something better here than what their African and European ancestors enjoyed overseas.


There was also a shared culture and values each generation de-bugged of bias until these central groups could finally become sisters and brothers, instead of eternal ethnic antagonists.

An older friend of mine summed it up perfectly years ago. He said, “We (American Blacks and Whites) are about to be the minority.”

The illegal Latino influx, courted by amnesty-pushing Republi-con men and Demo-crack dealers, will soon wash America’s Black/White baseline away.

In its place will be a clear majority whose homeland is South of the Border, while native born Blacks and Whites who aren’t wealthy are pushed to society’s margins.

White communists, crony capitalists, and latter-day sharecroppers salivate at a majority-Brown America with Third World orientation.

Gone will be pesky patriots inspired by the Revolutionary War, Abolitionists, the War Between The States, and the 20th Century Civil Rights Movement.

In their place will be “citizens” whose creed is open borders, displacing working-class Blacks and Whites at discount rates and furthering an anti-Western imperialism as ambitious as anything pursued by the former Soviet Union.

Working and middle class Americans in the Black and White communities who cherish traditional values and a national identity resembling them had better unite.
