The Joke on President's Day

A friend of mine sent me this link to an article entitled Bad Week for Freedom

Unfortunantley it came when we are celebrating President'sDay - a day to honor not only our founding fathers who gave us this great Nation and the Constitution, but to also honor all President's past and present. Yes, that is supposed to mean even honoring men we have placed in the Oval Office who have neglected the Constitution and have even damaged our country. We can only hope that the people recognize the damage done and can see the direction the current Administration is taking this country then vote this clown act out of office. We can hope that the excessive regulation, high unemployment rate, off the charts national debt, incredibly high (and climbing higher) gasoline prices will be the price we pay to get this country back,....because if we don't change direction, another four years of this will destroy our country,...it will destroy us economically and destroy the very fabric this country is wrapped in,...freedom.

Key Points from the article referenced above - please go read it in it's entirety.

With each passing week it seems this country spirals further into the depths of a frightening dystopian fantasy reminiscent of Huxley and Orwell’s dark world of isolation, fear and government brutality portrayed in their masterpieces Brave New World and 1984. I keep speculating whether it’s me that’s crazy and not the things I’m witnessing on a daily basis. The President signs the National Defense Authorization Act, passed by an overwhelming majority of Congress, which allows the government to imprison American citizens indefinitely without charge. And there is barely a squeak from the docile masses as they are soothed by Obama promising to never use that part of the law. I bet you $10,000 a President will invoke that portion of the NDAA in the very near future.

Jon Corzine, a card carrying member of the ruling elite .01%, remains free to roam one of his five palatial estates after stealing $1.6 billion from the accounts of farmers, widows, and thousands of other
“clients” of MF Global. In his spare time he raises money for Obama’s re-election campaign.

The Wall Street banks that committed the largest financial crime in history, including: fraud in the inducement, forgery, fabricating documents, bribing rating agencies to rate toxic mortgages as AAA, selling fraudulent derivatives to customers, shorting the derivatives they sold to their customers, throwing millions of Americans out of their homes, charging inflated and bogus fees during the foreclosure process, and conducting a colossal cover-up, were slapped on the wrist and made to pay a miniscule $5 billion to the millions of victims of their crimes. Not one banker has been prosecuted. Not one person has gone to jail. Justice in this country is a putrid joke. There has been no outrage from the general public.

“Free” Healthcare. While this travesty of justice was playing out, we were treated to a glimpse into the future of healthcare in America administered by politicians and bureaucrats based upon vote count expediency. The government drones at Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) mandated from on high that every woman in America would receive “free” contraceptives from their employers.

Obama had made this decision and instructed his minions to implement his visionary dictate. The outrage and anger from religious groups and employers was instantaneous. Obama saw the 2012 election slipping away and reversed course within a day. He is quite the man of principle. His
“solution” was to force insurance companies to provide “free” contraception to any employee of a religious employer that didn’t provide that coverage in their insurance plan.

Oh, and speaking of fraud: Remember Obama’s assertion about his government takeover of healthcare: “As a consequence of the Affordable Care Act, premiums are going to be lower than they would be otherwise; health care costs overall are going to be lower than they would be otherwise.”

“In our age there is no such thing as ‘keeping out of politics.’ All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia. The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world. Lies will pass into history.” – George Orwell
