So, where do we go from here? After watching and reading this, do any of you who still resisted, until today, the movement by 65% of Americans to repeal Obamacare, remain entrenched in that position? If so, do you realize what you are subjecting future generations to? Maybe it won't be your child, or your grandchild. But the door has now been opened for severe abuse of power by the President of the United States at some point in history, somewhere, sometime. God help the world if freedom and liberty should truly and completely fall from the face and culture of America.
Remember when Obama said he wanted a national security force? Not the national guard, but a civilian one that has not sworn to uphold the Constitution? On July 2, 2008 in a speech in Colorado Springs, Barack Obama called for a police state.
Obama just got his private army...

How many of you, dear readers, were aware of the fact that the health care bill created another army?
Stand With God, Stand For Liberty, Prepare To Fight For Both!
Ben was on to something. Guy usually was.
ReplyDeleteFrom a non-political standpoint, a more personal take on that quote.
Our CFO, COO and CEO met with The Board about 3 years ago. They got a vote to give themselves a 15% raise.
They then had an "unforeseen disastrous quarter" and everyone in the company took a 10% decrease in pay. They made us feel better by saying, "We're taking that same 10%, too".
However, that 15% they took a month or so prior left them %5 ahead.
But, more to your point. O.B.A.M.A.'s Corps is scary...Hitler Youthish even.
Yeah, there were some pretty wise men 300 years ago. What happened?
