Congress Ignores Obama’s Overt Exec Order and Coup Against US Citizens

After his effective coup against the United States Congress, in which he, his bought-and-paid-for “General” Dempsey and Communist Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta commanded that said Congress was now subservient to the United Nations, NATO and/or any other foreign power he decides on, Obama has now turned his sights back on the American people.
On Friday 16 March 2012, Dictator-in-Chief Obama signed his latest illegal Executive Order (only appearing to matter to US Constitutionalists whom his criminal syndicate calls “terrorists”), which he calls “National Defense Resources Preparedness.” This EO gives the Obama Syndicate the “right” to steal anything and everything from the American people they desire. These include, but are not limited to, food, energy, water, health, all civil transportation and all other materials, services and facilities. It also allows Obama’s now completely criminal government—whom neither Congress nor the courts have tried to stop in any way whatsoever—to nullify any contract (including what’s left of the now heavily-shredded US Constitution) made between the US government and any private company and/or the American people. It gives the Obama Syndicate total control of the US Government and total control of ALL resources—including everything formerly owned by you and me—of and in the USA. Read more…

The Obama administration now wants to advance its amnesty-loving ways through its FY 2013 budget proposal.
As every Washington insider knows, policy measures mean something, but the best way to accomplish things is with money. Allocating more dollars or fewer dollars, beefing up funds for one program and cutting spending on something else. That’s how Washington really works.
True to form, Obama’s budget for next year would curb immigration enforcement. It would further disarm our vulnerable border. It would effectively accomplish de facto amnesty for many more foreigners. Read more…

(CNSNews.com) – Accusing U.S. states of passing laws that will “disproportionately block members of minority groups from voting,” National Association for the Advancement of Colored People President Benjamin Todd Jealous appealed to the U.N. Human Rights Council Wednesday to take up the issue.
In a brief presentation to the Geneva-based council, Jealous charged that 25 laws passed in 14 states last year “together make it harder for more than five million citizens to vote.”
“These voter-suppression laws include so-called strict voter ID laws, cutting of Sunday voting, early voting and same-day voter registration, and the re-imposing of notoriously racist bans on formerly-incarcerated people voting,” he said.
“Each of these types of laws – often framed as vote security measures – have one thing in common: they will disproportionately block members of minority groups from voting.”
Among his listeners were representatives of several countries whose citizens have no right to vote freely for their governments, including one-party states Cuba and China; and Saudi Arabia, where women have been barred from voting in even those limited elections that are held. (From 2015, women will be allowed to vote in municipal elections. But even then neither they, nor Saudi men, will be able to elect their rulers.) Read more…

AP–The Obama administration has once more gone too far in its “overreach,” Texas Gov. Rick Perry said Monday, after the Justice Department objected to the state’s new voter photo ID law, saying Texas failed to demonstrate that the law is not discriminatory by design against Hispanic voters.
“Texas has a responsibility to ensure elections are fair, beyond reproach and accurately reflect the will of voters. The DOJ has no valid reason for rejecting this important law, which requires nothing more extensive than the type of photo identification necessary to receive a library card or board an airplane. Their denial is yet another example of the Obama administration’s continuing and pervasive federal overreach,” Perry said. Read more…

When it comes to taxes, Washington, D.C., is now experiencing the quiet before the storm of the century. But, starting in early2013, American families and small employers will face a list of tax increases so large that they cannot be ignored in this election season. Adding together data from the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO), it’s reasonable to say that these combined tax hikes will total $6 trillion to $7 trillion over the next decade.
Trickle-down taxation
There’s much talk about the “expiration of the Bush tax cuts,” but that’s a misnomer. The 2001 and 2003 tax relief has been extended by Congresses controlled by both parties, and extensions signed into law by presidents of both parties—notably including President Obama himself. This list encompasses more than just that basket of potential tax hikes, however. There are plenty more in ObamaCare and Social Security.
President Obama talks a lot about raising taxes on “millionaires and billionaires,” but most of the tax hikes mentioned below fall on households making $250,000 per year or less. Even raising the very top rate, something Obama has been pushing during his entire public life, would be a tax increase on small employers and families with taxable income of around $400,000 in 2013. This is trickle-down taxation at work, and it’s coming to a middle income family near you.
President Barack Obama will have to go on record: Is he for this tsunami of tax hikes, or is he against them? Read more…

(CNSNews.com) – Senators Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Mike Lee (R.-Utah) and Jim DeMint (R.-S.C.) introduced a budget plan on Thursday that would balance the budget in five years and pay down $2 trillion of the national debt in 10 years.
The plan includes spending cuts, entitlement reforms and tax reforms.
Paul said that the “Platform to Revitalize America” is the only plan consistent with the balanced budget amendment Republican advanced in the U.S. Senate because that amendment requires that Congress balance the budget in five years.
The plan eliminates the Department of Commerce, the Department of Education, Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Department of Energy.
“By eliminating departments we don’t have to make as significant of cuts in other areas,” Paul said. Read more…

(CNSNews.com) – Mitt Romney squeezed a narrow victory in Ohio’s Republican presidential primary overnight and won five other Super Tuesday states, but Rick Santorum’s strong showing in the Buckeye state and three victories elsewhere deprived the former Massachusetts governor of the type of decisive sweep his campaign may have been hoping for.
A nail-biting count in the important battleground state ended with Romney edging out Santorum by one percentage point, 38-37 percent, a margin amounting to some 12,000 votes. Newt Gingrich came a distant third, with 14.6 percent, and Ron Paul took 9.3 percent.
Romney won a comfortable vote in his home state, Massachusetts, and also won primaries in Vermont and Virginia – where only he and Paul were on the ballot – as well as the caucuses in Idaho and Alaska. Read more…
Netanyahu to Obama: ‘Israel Must Have the Ability to Defend Itself’
By Fred Lucas
(CNSNews.com) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made it clear at the White House Monday that Israel was ready to go it alone in defending against the threat of a nuclear Iran, saying that “my supreme responsibility as prime minister of Israel is to ensure that Israel remains the master of its fate.”
Netanyahu and President Barack Obama spoke to a small gathering of media in the Oval Office before further meeting throughout the day. They did not take questions. The two leaders are said to have a chilled relationship for a number of reasons, one being that the Obama administration is seeking restraint in dealing with Iran, while Israel considers a pre-emptive strike against their nuclear sites.
Netanyahu talked of the close bond between Israel and the United States, but said his country has the right to self defense. Read more…

OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanded Friday that Iran abandon its uranium enrichment program and dismantle its underground nuclear facility, and he warned the international community not to fall into the “trap” of renewed nuclear talks.
Netanyahu also said he not would set down “red lines” for Israeli or U.S. action – a reference to reports in Israel that the country intended to press the United States to set such demands.
In comments after a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Netanyahu said Iran could try to evade pressure by entering talks and pursue and exploit the talks, as it has done in the past.
Netanyahu also will meet with President Barack Obama on Monday, and Iran will be a major concern. Obama is expected to try to persuade Netanyahu to postpone any plans his government may have to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities in coming months. Read more…
Resolution Calling on Iran to Release Death Row Pastor Draws Huge Support
(CNSNews.com) – The House of Representatives on Thursday passed a resolution calling on Iran to free a Christian pastor sentenced to death for “apostasy.” Youcef Nadarkhani has resisted multiple attempts by Iranian authorities to persuade him to renounce his faith.
The measure passed unanimously, although the voting record appears as 417-1. (Rep. Lois Capps (D-Calif.) voted “no,” but said she did so by mistake and corrected the Congressional Record on the floor after the vote, her spokesperson Ashley Schapitl confirmed.)
GOP presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) was among 10 lawmakers who did not vote.
The resolution, sponsored by Rep. Joe Pitts (R-Pa.) with support from Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), condemns Tehran for the “state-sponsored persecution of religious minorities” in violation of international treaties. Read more…
