Protect And Defend The Constitution

 

By: William P. Frasca

 

 

 

 

Our President Barack Hussein Obama, “The Chosen One” has created a welfare Country with increasing poverty, while our currency is progressively becoming worthless. He has destroyed the American Dream with enhanced entitlements, high unemployment, high inflation and increase financial tax burdens.  Don’t believe the unemployment and inflation statistics, its much higher. Individuals experiencing hardships going from full time to part time employment considerably decreasing their income aren’t in the equation, because they have jobs while gas and food prices aren’t equated into the inflation formula.

 

Mr. Obama doesn’t feel he should honor and respect the Constitution of theUnited States. He placed another executive order on gun control without any approval from the people or Congress. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! He constantly uses his executive order powers to by-passes Congress, and the Constitution at will, enacting them one after another, showing his disregard and respect of our separate but equal braches of government. He does what he wants to do with no consequences or answerability. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen!

 

We accept a substandard quality of life, begging for pittance and handouts from our federal bureaucrats. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! We didn’t want “Obamacare” in which it was rammed down our throats. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! The I.R.S. has literally stepped on our faces, with no apology, remorse, compassion or punishments. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen? The N.S.A. has violated our rights as Americans against the Constitution. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! Congressional subpoenas are being ignored, federal employees taking the fifth, refusing to answer pertinent questions for their action hiding from guilt and lying. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen. Lies concerning the brutal murders at our Embassy in Benghazi. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! Guns illegally sold to the Cartel, by and sanctioned by our government, this deadly program was identified as “Fast and Furious” relating to the death of a U.S. Border Patrol Agent. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! We accept illegal acts and executive orders of gun control violating our right as Americans “To Bear Arms” Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen! The Constitution is constantly being by-passed and disrespected. Our rights are maliciously being violated. Yet “We the People” allowed this to happen!

 

Now he’s thinking of bombing Syria, “who knows” to save his own face because of an imaginary red line he established crossed by the Syrian government on chemical weapons. The Syrians have been killing Syrians in the past; we did nothing, now it’s necessary? Our enemies are killing our enemies, who care, sit back and enjoy the show. The only despicable act in all this is the killing of innocent children.

 

Thomas Jefferson once said “When the people fear the government, that's tyranny; when the government fears the person, that’s freedom.”  How intelligent was our forefathers. Today’s leadership is the complete opposite. We either blame this on the air or the water creating our elected and appointed Officials into mindless. Sub-standard, self serving, power hungry boobs and imbeciles, but we know it much more than that? It a combination of greed, corruption, and power, the triangle of unchained unmerciful destruction! This has annihilated and devastated Great Empires and Societies in the past, wiping out everything in its path, including freedom and liberty. The only antidote to this destructive course is a government that “Fears its People”.

 

The last and final obstacle in our government’s path of total dominance is “Gun Control”. Once the government records and confiscates all our personal weaponry, then they will have nothing to fear. Disarm the populous and they have a free road to complete dominance. This is the only thing a tyrant fears, an uprising. Gun control protects the government from its people; it doesn’t protect the people from their government. If all guns are controlled or eliminated from the hands of the people, then who or what will protect us from our own government? I am not advocating a revolution or any violence, in any way, shape or form, but the second amendment of the Constitution does guarantee our “Right to Bear Arms”.

 

The biggest problem we are facing as a free people and nation is our complacency. We are allowing our Government too much power over our lives. We have created a renegade unanswerable bureaucracy of self serving demigods that does what they want following no rules, laws, regulations or consequences. We have presently a balance of power with our House of Representatives under Republican control. Yet they have proven to be inept cowards, lost in the woods of clueless wonder. They can best be described as the cowardly lion of the Wizard of OZ; “all show” “no courage or action”. Except not even the wizard has enough magic to “grow them a pair”!

 

We must legally and peacefully express our concerns to the President and his administration to be accountable to “We the People” and hold their feet to the fire. This includes the Senate and the House of Representatives. We must take nothing for granted, because our quality of life and our liberties are rapidly diminishing. We must get involved, and become the advocates of American freedom, never relinquishing our God given inalienable rights and of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Well aware this is a difficult task because we have been for so long manipulated and maneuvered by forced compliance and a government deaf dumb and blind to the wishes of the people. We must never give up!

 

The Constitution must be defended and obeyed! Individual States must take back their               sovereignty, not beholding or subservient to the Federal government. States rights must be preserved. The States created this uncontrollable federal bureaucracy; it’s now time to legally diminish its powers of this inflated abomination of dominance.

 

Our elected official must yield to the will of the people. They and we are forgetting they are not royalty or monarchs. They are elected by the people and the people are their employers. They could and must be fired, at will, if they disobey. We have lost our way because we are going against all that is sacred, selling our souls, following like sheep to slaughter, fearful of our government, sadly relinquishing our liberties, while they disobey and step on the people and the Constitution.

 

This must change, for the good of all!! This must change for the survival of our Great Nation! We must at all cost peacefully protect a government, founded by our forefathers created Of, By, and For the People! Our free Republic must be saved!

 

So help us God!

Wikileak Memo: Obama Refused DEA Permission to Assassinate Chapo Posted: 31 Aug 2013 02:51 PM PDT BorderlandBeat.Com Posted on Forum by Siskiyou Kid   Stratfor Memos Leaked By WikiLeaks Show US DEA Was Refused White House Permission To Kill Drug Kingpin Joaquín Guzmán Loera By David Iaconangelo,  If one high-ranking employee with the global intelligence firm Stratfor is to be believed, not only did the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) once know the whereabouts of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán - the Sinaloa drug cartel kingpin and fugitive from justice in Mexico - but the agency even asked the White House to go into Mexico to kill him.     Among the 5 million "Stratfor memos" published by WikiLeaks in 2012 are several messages from Fred Burton, vice president of intelligence and top expert on Mexican drug cartels for Stratfor, describing classified interactions from 2007 to 2011 between Mexican and US intelligence and even President Barack Obama's response to the 2010 DEA query.  Guzmán, one of the most powerful of Mexico's cartel capos, was sentenced to over 20 years in prison in 1993 on drug trafficking charges but escaped by bribing a prison guard.  He remains a fugitive from justice.  The first of the messages from Burton came on November 2, 2007.  "If the DEA can specifically locate the Sinaloa boss El Chapo, he will be assassinated," Burton wrote.  "A decision memo has been authorized to take him out, as a national security threat."  WhoWhatWhy, an investigative journalism website, writes that the "decision memo" could refer to a decision within the DEA pending approval from the National Security Council, or a memo indicating the Bush administration - still in office at that time - could have approved the plan.  Whatever the case was, a DEA operation was never carried out.  But Burton later says, in a February 2010 email, that the DEA "had a window of opportunity to render El Chapo" but the White House "would not let them do it", quipping, "God forbid we upset our lovely MX neighbors".  In a July 2010 email, he expounds a bit on what happened, writing, "DEA Special Ops submitted a finding to go into MX to whack El Chapo. Obviously, the decision came back as no. Never made it past the deputies committee."  The intelligence VP ends the email striking a pose of nonchalance toward the Obama administration's apparent rejection of the DEA request in that message.  "As Gomer Pyle would say, 'Surprise, surprise'" he writes.  That attitude might be explained by the last of the memos on El Chapo, coming in April 2011, when Burton says, "Obama won't approve a finding for covert action inside MX based on 'moral ground'", adding that then-Mexican President Felipe Calderón "has told a few that violence has reached a point that he would turn a blind eye to unilateral CIA or DEA actions, if they wanted to go down that path, as long as he has 'plausible deniability.'"  Close cooperation between US and Mexican intelligence agencies has been a politically sensitive one in Mexico.  Under the Calderón administration, the agencies were known to have collaborated to an unprecedented degree - though perhaps not to the extent that the Stratfor memos suggest.  But the administration of current president Enrique Peña Nieto, who came into office in December 2012, has tried to wedge out old space.  And the opposition on the Mexican leftdenounces such collaboration as an incursion on Mexican sovereignty, a claim which Obama dismissed in a May trip to Mexico as "a distortion".  Burton also details ways in which the DEA might have gone about killing the Mexican drug lord. "One of the scenarios discussed to kill El Chapo or other Zeta HVT's [high-value targets] was a 1000 yard head shot by a U.S. shooter, to plant the seed of paranoia in the minds of the narcos as to who pulled the trigger.  "CIA 'Ground Branch' assets and/or DEA SO [Special Operations] have stated they have the ability and intelligence to pull it off without getting caught."   WIKILEAKS:   Re: INSIGHT - Mexico/Guatemala - cartel activity Released on 2013-02-13 00:00 GMT Email-ID 1135481 Date 2010-02-24 15:27:59 From burton@stratfor.com To reva.bhalla@stratfor.com,secure@stratfor.com Very good report. DEA also believes El Chapo is in the same area, so that could be "circular information". DEA had a window of opportunity to render El Chapo but the WH would not let them do it. God forbid we upset our lovely MX neighbors. I've never seen the wife of the Guat Prez alleged links to the Zetas. I can verify that if desired?
