"No 'There' There?" It Depends On What The Meaning of "Is" Is.

President Obama says in regard to the Benghazi Scandal, "There's no 'there' there".

It reminds me of Bill Clinton postulating on what the meaning of "is" is.



It is important to note that Clinton was impeached, but not removed from office, for the act of obfuscation, or lying, depending on what you would call it.  The US Congress called it impeachable and voted to impeach, and so Clinton was the first President since Andrew Johnson to be impeached.

Obama is a liar and a clear and present danger to the United States.  Will the US Congress have the will to impeach Obama?  Time will tell.

One thing is certain.  There is a ton of smokescreen going on now to try to push Benghazi out of the public eye.  The Kermit Gosnell trial.  The IRS attack on patriot groups and individual patriots (the latter was something that we experienced on our 2010 Federal tax returns.  We labeled it as incompetence at the time. Turns out we were apparently wrong).

In regard to BenghaziGate, there is something there.  My feeling is that it has to do with weapons that were funneled through Libya to the Syrian rebels.  US weapons.  Weapons paid for by the taxpayers.  Weapons that folks who are hostile to the United States now have in their hands.  Whatever is "there" it is something that Obama wants to hide.  If he could, he would lock it all down like he has done with his university records and writing (something is "there" as well).  Since he can't lock BenghaziGate down, he will lie and obfuscate and rely on his minions in the Marxist Media to bury his guilt.  Count on it.  Will it work?  Well, there allegedly were enough Nanny-State Americans to elect him to a second term, so there must be enough Americans out there who will believe anything as long as they can get their food stamps and government assistance in all of its various forms and who are willing to look the other way.

Oh, let's not forget about the most recent previous Secretary of State.


It is my firm belief that all of the smoke from the other "scandals" of the current day is to obscure BenghaziGate in order to protect Hillary Clinton vis-a-vis a run for the Presidency in 2016.  I'm sure that the Democrat internal polls show her to be a front-runner and if she is brought to justice regarding BenghaziGate then that picture will change to her detriment in regard to a run for the White House.  


We will see what develops.

Benghazi: Obama Administration Says Look At the Smoke and Ignore The Fire

There is some reason that Obama and the rest of the top decision-makers in his administration chose to let the terror attacks of September 11th, 2012 on the United States Embassy in Benghazi, Libya continue unabated after they found out about them.  Obama and Hillary Clinton knew that it would come out that the Ambassador, Chris Stevens, and others had been killed.  They knew also that the False-Flag nature of blaming a nebulous You-Tube video with less than 1000 hits would be exposed.  They knew that even if the true nature of the attacks came out that Mitt Romney was too soft to ever go on the offensive and expose the fact that Al-Qaeda was behind them.  There has to be some reason that Obama and Hillary Clinton allowed these folks to be murdered without doing anything to help them, and indeed even ordering operations and operators that could have possibly changed the outcome to "stand down".  Furthermore, there is some reason that Obama has ordered that the survivors of the attack be made unavailable.  What are they hiding?  There is smoke here, where is the fire?

I submit that there was a gun-running operation supplying arms to opposition forces in Syria that was being facilitated through our embassy in Libya.  In a classic case of "Dead Men Tell No Tales", I submit that Obama and Clinton took no action to help the embassy in Benghazi because they wanted the terrorists who were attacking our embassy to take out Ambassador Stevens  in order to hide the gun-running arms-supplying US-Taxpayer supported operation.

There is more than meets the eye with this whole situation.  The media has been willing to turn a blind-eye to the entire investigation into the situation for the most part.  Even the little bit of attention that has been brought to the public eye has focused on the inaction on the part of Obama with the idea that he was trying to avoid the terrorist-attack narrative in association with Benghazi.  I think there is another layer or more of deception going on here, and I think Obama wants us to focus on the smoke (the debate about terror attack versus You-Tube video rampage, and the lack of response that led to the deaths) and ignore the fire that is behind this whole scenario.

Food Stamps Create Inflation in a SNAP

As prices at the Supermarket spike upward, does the fact that a record number of Americans (and people living in America who are not Americans) that are using food stamps contribute to that?

Well, the price of fuel to transport goods to the retail market has remained steady for about the last year or so, but the prices at the supermarket are climbing rapidly.  I submit that the reason for this is that there is a big pile of US Federal cash that is available to the food retailers who are taking advantage by raising prices.

As "Tyler Durden" at Zerohedge reports:
Record Dow Jones, record US debt ($16,701,846,937,879.74), and now, once more, record number of Americans on foodstamps. According to the USDA, an all time high of 47,791,966 Americans closed 2012 in possession of the highly desired Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, managed by who else but JPMorgan. And with a civilian non-institutional population of 244.4 million in December, this means that a record 19.56% of eligible Americans are on Foodstamps.


This unprecedented level of government dependence allows several things to happen.  First off, people who would not be able to support their current lifestyle can still afford to make ends meet courtesy of the US taxpayer, if they are so inclined.  Next, it allows the Obama government to pump more cash into the money supply, which contributes to inflationary pressure, resulting in the higher food prices noted by all of us who shop for food.  

So if Americans are not able to feed themselves without the help of their government, does that mean that the Stock Market is tanking as well?  No, no it doesn't.  There are a lot of American Dollars available for the Stock Market minions to play with as well.  Just like with the SNAP program, the US government is pumping the Stock market up with lots of cash from something called Quantitative Easing.  This also allows the Obama government to pump more money into the money supply while keeping those who can play the market happy. 

"Durden" summarizes it thusly:
Record wealth effect for the 1%, foodstamps for the poorest 20%, and a middle class on the verge of extinction. How is this possible and what happens next?



Indeed, the question is, "what happens next?"

As the money that is being pumped into circulation takes effect and gains velocity, we can expect inflation to greatly increase just from that very increase in the money supply and the speed at which the money is being circulated.  Both record amounts of SNAP participants and Quantitative Easing adding cash for the Wall Street folks to play with will facilitate this,

When ObamaCare kicks in, the costs associated with that will add to the burden on every American - no, ObamaCare will not reduce your health care costs, it will increase them, a lot.  In addition, the cost of ObamaCare for every merchant will add to their cost of doing business, a lot  - and the consumer is the only way that they have of recovering the cost of doing business, so these costs will be passed on.  

Further, EPA regulations will institute a de facto tax on the air (at least the carbon dioxide portion of it) that Obama was not able to ram through Congress in a legal way.

As food prices spike up (and spike is the correct word, especially since the start of 2013), not due to normal  free-market supply and demand) it will hurt everyone on a basic level, that is, the need to eat.

So the government controls the health system, the air, and the food costs by their Marxist Cloward-Piven style policies.  

What happens next?  Indeed, that is the question.

Quantitative Easing = Monetizing the Federal Debt

HT Zero Hedge

Quantitative Easing is basically the United States using taxpayer dollars to buy United States bonds, which is essentially the United States buying its own debt using money that it has printed.  

The simple law of supply and demand means that this practice will reduce the value of every dollar just because there are more of them in circulation.  Once these extra dollars pick up velocity then the process of inflation becomes more troublesome.  

For the short term, this makes things seem to be improving economically.  

For the long term, this sets up the economy for hyperinflation.  

Overall, it is a great plan if the goal is to collapse the economy and create a class of dependent citizens which encompasses about 99% of all citizens, with the remainder being the "Ruling Class".  

Sorry this post is not detailed or complicated.  I wish it wasn't accurate as well.

So What of This Tyranny That We in The United States Now Live Under?



So what of this tyranny that we in the United States now live under?  


The churches and synagogues are silent and submit to the bonds that the United States government places on their 1st Amendment rights through the Internal Revenue Service 501.c.3 designation.  


The mosques are complicit with and protected by the United States government.  


Does anyone besides me see the similarity to the imposition of control that happened in Nazi Germany less than 100 years ago?  


Now, President Obama will be using the Internal Revenue Service to impose control on the lives of ALL citizens EXCEPT those who are exempt from ObamaTax a.k.a. "The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act".

Dave Daubenmire -- Get Off of Your Butt - While You Still Can

Dave Daubenmire -- Get Off of Your Butt - While You Still Can

Coach Dave Daubenmire has a long history of standing up for what he believes in.  In 2012 he ran for US Congress in the Republican primary in Ohio CD-18, but the Establishment GOP ran a targeted campaign against him and he was defeated in this race.  Here is a video from that campaign:





Now Coach Dave is putting together Boot Camp training to prepare men for the dark days that look to be just ahead in our nation.  Here is a quote from the article linked above:


"Pastors are the best fire-fighters. I can’t tell you how many times I have seen them hoist their leg and squirt all over some “wild-fire” that was beginning to heat-up. If it wasn’t “their idea,” or if there was a possibility that they couldn’t control it, they would have no trouble emptying their bladder all over another man’s calling."


In the past, the Church has been co-opted by the government.  It has happened in other countries and it has been present in the USA since the late 1950s.  The time is coming, soon, when someone in the communities across our nation will have to stand up and be counted.  Coach Dave and I both believe that toward this end it is time for the men who call themselves Christians to be first in line. In most cases, your pastor is afraid to do anything, so don't look to your pastor, look to yourself instead, and then find other guys in your community to stand alongside.

Justice Kennedy Agrees with Obama - It Is About "Fundamental Change"


















Remember when Barack H. Obama was a candidate and just before the election of 2008 he promised to "fundamentally transform" America?  If you've forgotten, here is the video of his remark:


It seems that Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy agrees with The President, that ObamaCare does "fundamentally change" the relationship between citizens and the Federal Government.  Here's the audio of the comment made during the ObamaCare case presentation currently going on before the SCOTUS:


(The comment in question is in the last 10 seconds of the clip, with context material for the first 1:23)

Barack H. Obama promised to "fundamentally transform" America.  Obama, who is a Marxist at heart, meant that he was going to transform America from a Constitutional Republic into something else.  Obama has already done a lot, A LOT, of damage to our future, and ObamaCare is only a potential part of that damage.  It is important to remember that most of ObamaCare has not taken affect yet - that some of it was set up to take effect after the election of 2012, and much of it even after the election of 2014.  This was done to give cover for all those who voted for ObamaCare to have a chance to get re-elected, and of course for Barack H. Obama to get re-elected in 2012 as well, before we "find out what's in it" as Nancy Pelosi infamously stated.

 Even if we would change our entire group of elected officials today and replace them all with those who would adhere to the Constitutional basis of our Federal government and the Law of The Land, we would still be years in repairing the damage already done.    Of course, this sort of wholesale replacement will not happen.  Even in the best-case scenario it would be a long, long time to clean up the damage.  

At least Justice Anthony Kennedy recognizes that there is "fundamental change" here, a change that moves us away from the Constitutional basis of law in these United States, and away from Constitutional self-government.

Michigan Primary 2012: Santorum and Romney Split Delegates Evenly

The Marxist Media want and need Mitt Romney as the GOP candidate, the same way that they wanted and needed John McCain as a candidate for POTUS in 2008. Simply put, they need a True-RINO that they know will not appeal to most Americans (even though he appeals to the Establishment GOP). That is why the news was of a "Romney victory in Michigan".  This is Romney's home state, folks, even though he was Governor of Massachusetts.  

Can anyone logically think that the Founder of RomneyCare will actually do anything but uphold ObamaCare?  Barack H. Obama has stated that RomneyCare was a source for the principles in ObamaCare, and the similarities are clear between the two government power grabs that are RomneyCare and ObamaCare


The following text is from an email sent on the day after the Michigan Primary from the Santorum Campaign:
"Make no mistake: Yesterday Mitt Romney struggled to win in his home state and if you were watching the news last night, you only got 1/2 of the real story. Most people turned their televisions off with news of a Romney victory but the vote counters kept going and this morning the Associated Press is saying out of the 30 delegates awarded so far each campaign has picked up 15 delegates.

We were outspent 6 to 1 in Romney's home state and he had a campaign infrastructure in place for half a decade, yet we won half the delegates."

JFK's Speech Threw the Political History of the United States Down the Drain

Much is being made of comments that Rick Santorum made in regard to a speech by John F. Kennedy from 1960. In the speech, Kennedy delivered a message that answered the concerns of a nation that The Pope would somehow direct US affairs through him if he were elected President.  JFK also extended that message in such a way that refuted the traditional role of the Christian Church in the affairs of America.  


The truth is that from the Founding of the United States until the 1950s that there was a thing called an "Election Day Sermon" and even an "Election Sermon" given after newly elected officials were sworn in.   


In the case of the Election Day Sermon, pastors spoke to their people about voting.  Why?  Because there was a general recognition of the fact that all authority comes from God, and in the case of the United States, that Godly authority was given to The People who then delegated it to their elected officials.  The Pastors knew that God attached responsibility to His authority when he granted it, and so they preached to their people about their responsibility to vote according to how God's Word applied to the candidates and issues.  This was accepted and common practice from the time of the Founders up until Senator Lyndon B. Johnson in 1954 attached the stipulation that any IRS 501.c.3 organization (including churches) could not take any position politically either for or against a candidate. 


When Senator Rick Santorum states that JFK's speech made him upset, I understand what he is saying.  America was once a nation based on Moral principles that came from the Judeo-Christian foundation of the Bible.  American was also once a great nation.  Since the 1950's we have been on a steady slide away from that foundation, a slide that has picked up speed recently, so much speed that it is bound to make anyone who understands what is going on a little bit queasy.
