Did Chief Justice Expose ObamaCare?

Yesterday I was fairly pissed off that Chief Justice Roberts basically hung out the conservatives by his vote on ObamaCare. This morning how however, I may have to backup a little. Why you say. I read an article on the American Thinker blog that made some sense, at least for the moment it does.

"John Roberts has handed a remarkable victory to American conservatives by threading the judicial needle with perfect precision."

When I read that I was even for confused, but taking time to read the entire article, it made good sense as to why Roberts may have voted the way he did.

I am going to have to listen up more to see if I buy in to Roberts way of thinking on this.   I will go ahead and post the article this morning,  let me know if you agree or disagree on this extremely important issue.  So sit back drink so coffee and read the article.

Chief Justice John Roberts has handed a remarkable victory to American conservatives by threading the judicial needle with perfect precision.  The initial disappointment collectively felt by Americans who had hoped for a Supreme Court ruling that would overturn Obamacare soon will be replaced, upon further reflection, by the excitement that will come with a fuller appreciation of what the Chief Justice has wrought.

First, almost completely unnoticed, the Chief Justice voted with his four conservative colleagues in drawing an unprecedented red line against Washington wielding the Constitution's Commerce Clause in the future to justify federal intrusion into the personal lives of Americans.  This decision will restrict American Presidents and future Congresses for a generation and more.

Cloward / Piven Strategy – Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis

Cloward / Piven Strategy – Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis
by James Simpson - American Thinker

America waits with bated breath while Washington struggles to bring the U.S. economy back from the brink of disaster. But many of those same politicians caused the crisis, and if left to their own devices will do so again.

Wake Up America

Despite the mass media news blackout, a series of books, talk radio and the blogosphere have managed to expose Barack Obama’s connections to his radical mentors — Weather Underground bombers William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, Communist Party member Frank Marshall Davis and others. David Horowitz and his Discover the Networks.org have also contributed a wealth of information and have noted Obama’s radical connections since the beginning.

Yet, no one to my knowledge has yet connected all the dots between Barack Obama and the Radical Left. When seen together, the influences on Obama’s life comprise a who’s who of the radical leftist movement, and it becomes painfully apparent that not only is Obama a willing participant in that movement, he has spent most of his adult life deeply immersed in it.

But even this doesn’t fully describe the extreme nature of this candidate. He can be tied directly to a malevolent overarching strategy that has motivated many, if not all, of the most destructive radical leftist organizations in the United States since the 1960s.

The Cloward-Piven Strategy of Orchestrated Crisis   

In an earlier post, I noted the liberal record of unmitigated legislative disasters, the latest of which is now being played out in the financial markets before our eyes. Before the 1994 Republican takeover, Democrats had sixty years of virtually unbroken power in Congress – with substantial majorities most of the time. Can a group of smart people, studying issue after issue for years on end, with virtually unlimited resources at their command, not come up with a single policy that works? Why are they chronically incapable?

Why?

Roberts Flips Sides and Supports Obamacare

Roberts Flips Sides and Supports Obamacare

Stabbed In The Back

   

I feel completely off my chair when I heard the SCOTUS ruling on Obamacare this morning. First off we were assured the bill was not presented as a Tax, Chief Justice Roberts said the following,

“Roberts ruled that the Constitution’s Commerce Clause did not allow the insurance mandate, but that it was constitutional under Congress’s power of taxation.”

(The Hill) Republicans expressed shock and deep disappointment on Thursday after Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the majority opinion to uphold President Obama’s healthcare law.

“I’m disappointed in the result,” said Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), a member of the Judiciary Committee who participated in Roberts’s lengthy confirmation hearings. “I think history may record that he was not right. I think he may have made a mistake.”

Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), a Tea Party favorite and member of the Judiciary Committee elected in 2010, said he was “shocked” Roberts found the law’s mandate that people buy insurance to be a tax.
“I disagree with it,” he said, adding that he was disappointed in Roberts.

Rep. Michele Bachman (R-Minn.), a leader of the Tea Party movement, blasted Roberts’s opinion as out of step with the Constitution.  “We’re profoundly disappointed in the decision from the court,” Bachmann told CNN while standing on the court steps.
“I urge people to read the dissent that was read from the bench by Justice [Anthony] Kennedy and joined in by Justices [Samuel] Alito and also [Antonin] Scalia because that opinion said very clearly, this was an activist court that you saw today,” she said. “What they did was not just uphold ObamaCare; this Supreme Court rewrote ObamaCare in line with its own design.”

Roberts was nominated to the court by President George W. Bush and received unanimous support from GOP senators, who felt blindsided when he voted to uphold a law they believed was on the verge of unraveling.

Roberts ruled that the Constitution’s Commerce Clause did not allow the insurance mandate, but that it was constitutional under Congress’s power of taxation.
Sessions said that while he did not regret voting for Roberts, he could not understand how the chief justice could reach his conclusion, particularly when the law’s authors argued it was not a tax during the congressional debate. 

“This was sold as a mandate, they called it a mandate, it looked like a mandate and in oral argument [the solicitor general] came in and claimed it was a tax but I’m not sure the chief was right in concluding it was a tax,” Sessions said.

King Demands Answers on Egyptian Radical’s Visit

King Demands Answers on Egyptian Radical’s Visit

Hani Nour Eldin

As my late father would say after hearing about something that just pissed him off….”Jesus H Christ” how in the the HELL did that happen..

The Muslim Brotherhood is a very dangerous organization, they are nothing to laugh at and are to be taken very seriously, and they are meeting with Obama and his senior advisers.  Obama has no business giving these SOB’s the time of day.

“Obama meets with TERRORISTS but refuses to travel to Israel, our biggest ally in the region, and Obama has snubbed them for almost 4 years. Does anyone other than me think this is just a little.  strange?”

That applies here. How did it happen that the United States allow Hani Nour Eldin, a member of the banned Islamic Group (Gamaa Islamiya) to enter the United States.

Does anyone believe for one minute that Janet Napolitano is going to give anyone a straight answer about this. Hell no she will not. Why, because her Boss said…”Tell No One”… I am surprised that Obama did not give this guy a State Dinner”.  At least would could have seen Mrs Obama wearing a formal “Burka” for the dinner.


A senior member of Congress wants Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to explain how an Egyptian tied to a terrorist group secured a visa to visit American officials last week.

The Obama administration granted a visa to a member of a Specially Designated Terrorist Group as part of a visiting Egyptian delegation, reports the Daily Beast’s Eli Lake. Hani Nour Eldin, a self-admitted member of the banned Egyptian Islamic Group (Gamaa Islamiya), lobbied senior American officials as a State Department spokesman denied knowledge of his affiliation with the terrorist group.

Hani Nour Eldin, a member of the banned Islamic Group (Gamaa Islamiya), met with government officials as part of a delegation of Egyptian parliamentarians. Eldin’s presence was first reported last week by the Daily Beast’s Eli Lake, who called it a budding “political fiasco.”

Omar Abdel-Rahman AKA Blind Sheik

The Islamic Group’s spiritual leader is Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, considered the inspiration behind the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, and convicted of conspiring in a subsequent plot to blow up New York landmarks and tunnels.

In a letter dated Sunday, U.S. Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., asked how Eldin received a visa and came to the United States.

“I am aware that there may be legitimate diplomatic reasons to grant a member of a designated foreign terrorist organization a visa to visit the United States, such as for example in furtherance of peace negotiations,” King wrote. “However, the nature of Eldin’s visit suggests an absence of full vetting rather than a policy choice, or perhaps a break-down in the screening missions of and coordination among our Federal agencies.”
He asked for information about the scrutiny Eldin’s visa received, including any consultation with the Department of Homeland Security about Eldin’s Islamic Group ties.

Blind Sheik

In addition, King asked Napolitano for its position about “any potential custodial transfer, or release, of Omar Abdel Rahman,” which is something several Egyptians have expressed as a goal. Eldin’s admission into the country is the latest in a series of questionable actions by the administration when it comes to hosting Egyptian Islamists. 

Does any of this surprise you, now that the Muslim Brotherhood’s candidate is now President of Egypt. nothing surprises me any longer.

In April, the Investigative Project on Terrorism reported on extraordinary measures taken to allow members of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party to glide through border security.

The State Department ordered that no secondary inspection be done on the group, despite their ties to a radical organization.
In addition, one member of the group had been implicated in a child pornography investigation when he lived in the United States.  But due to bureaucratic interference, his laptop computer and other personal items were not searched for illicit material.

Who are the Muslim Brotherhood, they are not your friendly next door Fuller-Brush man, that is a fact.  Have you read the Muslim Brotherhood Manifesto? I have and you need to read it. Why, Because YOUR PRESIDENT rubs elbows with these clowns. Why would the Obama Administration even consider giving a visa to ANYONE who is connected with this organization is beyond belief. That said, anything Obama says or does is beyond belief.

 "Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our leader; the Quran is our law; Jihad is our way; dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope."   The Motto of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Obama Telephones Egypt's New President

Obama Telephones Egypt's New Terrorist President

The United States during past 30 some odd years have had a strong ally with the past President,  Hosni Mubarak.  Since the ousting of Mubarak, there has been a jousting contest on who would be the next Egyptian President.

Well after days of waiting we now know who will be President. The Terrorist organization Muslim Brotherhood candidate Mohammed Morsi announced as the winner.  An organization with clear ties to the terror group Hamas will take over the presidency.

To put it in context of what the Muslim Brotherhood stands for, go no further that their very own Mission Statement, or in simple terms, what the Muslim Brotherhood stands for. Here it is their mission statement:

“The Ikhwan must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.” 

The country's last four presidents over the past six decades have all came from the ranks of the military. This is the first time modern Egypt will be headed by an Islamist and by a freely elected civilian. The outcome will not put an end to the main power struggle in the country now between Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood and the military. Morsi has already indicated that he wants to normalize relations with Iran...How sweet that will be. Israel has to be sick over these new revelations.

President Obama telephoned the new Egyptian President and offered the support of the United States. After skewering Hosni Mubarak, what else was left for Obama to do.
Obama did little if anything to assist Mubarak during the uprising.  Mubarak however, was a strong supporter of the United States, no longer will the United States be able to count on Egypt's assistance in the area. Also at risk is the fragile peace accord between Israel and Egypt.

"We look forward to working together with President-elect Morsi and the government he forms, on the basis of mutual respect, to advance the many shared interests between Egypt and the United States," the White House said in a statement. "We believe that it is important for President-elect Morsi to take steps at this historic time to advance national unity by reaching out to all parties and constituencies in consultations about the formation of a new government."  "Barack Obama"

The way the Muslim Brotherhood is attractive to Obama, became clear when the American President during his speech to the Ummah asked the Muslim Brothers to sit in the front row in a hall in Cairo. That was in 2009. Deliberately or unconscious of it, important politically active Muslims, many of them with secret ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, were employed by the American government.

The Muslim Brothers started there 'club' at the beginning of last century out of frustration over the ending of the Caliphate by Atatürk. During World War II they collaborated with the Nazi's. Later on they would give birth to their "child" Hamas, and with the exit of Al-Zawahiri also Al Qaida was born. The Muslim Brothers and Iran can be viewed as the biggest opponents of the West and Israel in the Middle-East.

What did Obama do when the Mubarak regime in Egypt got into trouble? He actually supported the Muslim Brothers in all ways by letting Mubarak down. As I previously said, Mubarak may not have been the sharpest knife in the drawer, but he supported the United States when we needed it, either with intelligence, airspace, or being an ally in Gulf War I. that's all gone right now.
Personally, I held out hope that the election would go the other way, but it did not happen. Now the Egyptians who elected this Morsi will have to live with him. Chances are we have not seen the last uprising.

I would venture to say, it will not be long before you see Egypt go by the way of just another Islamic State, I will hold out hope this does not occur, but with the Muslim Brotherhood in charge who really knows what is going to happen.

The Egyptian Military will maintain the control of their military, which is a BIG plus for the United States and allies. However, Politics in the Middle East can change over night, ie, Hosni Mubarak ouster, so as I said, here today gone tomorrow.

Egypt's New Leader Stresses Necessity for Revising Camp David Accord

TEHRAN (FNA)- Egypt's first democratically-elected President Mohammed Mursi underlined the importance of materializing the rights of the Palestinian people, and stressed the necessity for revising the Camp David Accord with Israel.

I am not quite sure what Mursi means by the statement that their policy towards Israel will be a policy based of equality? Equal to what? Is he referring to nuclear capabilities? That would be difficult, as Israel does not have nuclear weapons, (Wink Wink). Or in plain English, they do not and will NOT declare if they (Israel)  posse any nuclear weapons.
Additional Nuclear Information Here:

The election of Mursi means one thing for Israel, they will now have to pay extremely close attention to Egypt. not that they didn't in the past but in the past, Hosni Mubarak did not belong to the Muslim Brotherhood.  And if you have not been asleep for the past 50 years or so, you know that the Palestinians and Iran want to turn Israel into a glass parking lot. The election of Mursi changes the everything in the Middle east.

"Our policy towards Israel will be a policy based on equality since we are not weaker than them in any field and we will discuss the issue of the Palestinians' rights with the related sides since this is highly important," Mursi told Fars News Agency on Sunday, hours before the official announcement of presidential election results.

"We will revise the Camp David treaty," he said, adding that all of these issues should be implemented by governmental bodies and the cabinet "since I will take no decision by myself".
Asked about the Constitution Amendment which merely permits the military council to take decisions about how to respond to enemy's military attack against Egypt and the media reports that the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) has given necessary guarantees to Israel on the issue, he said, "If you mean an attack at present, I believe that it is unlikely anyway."

"The media are trying to exaggerate the issue which is aimed at daunting people of my presidency but declaring war is not the product of a decision of one single person anyway and the Majlis al-Sha'b should agree with it; at present the military council's agreement for the decision of war is necessary and there is no problem in it since they are aware of the Army's situation better (than others)," Mursi said.

"Of course, this doesn't mean that I agree with the Constitution Amendment but anyway I don't take decisions by myself and I have stressed many times that I have no difference with the Egyptian Army since the Army defends the nation's soil and I don't like to speak about the guarantees that the SCAF has given to Israel since we do not suspect anybody's patriotism and I believe that despite its mistakes, the SCAF has not announced a bid for our homeland," Mursi concluded.

Many Egyptian leaders believe that the Camp David Accord has damaged Egypt's honor and dignity, and called for its revision. Earlier, former Egyptian Ambassador to the Palestinian territories Gamal Mazloum had also told FNA that Egypt should take action to boost its forces in the Sinai Desert and make a formal request to correct and modify the Camp David Accord.

It will not be long, my friends before we see radical changes from our former middle east ally.  It is going to be a very interesting situation.  Just click on the link that is at the bottom of this post, it is an article from the Washington Post, it was written on January 31, 2011. It is a very good article and sheds a lot of light on the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Muslim Brotherhood Is The Enemy 

Obama Is Fast and Furiously Covering Up Fast and Furious!

Fast and Furious continues now down a very slippery slope. F&F may very well at some point take down the Obama administration, we can only pray that it does.

The White House is now implicated in Fast and Furious, period. What has happened in my opinion is this; By Holders letter to Obama requesting and being granted executive privilege, the letter is a smoke signal to Barack Obama telling him, that Holder will not go down alone. Oh what a pleasant thought.

Holders Letter to President Hussein Obama requesting Executive Privilege

The President
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President,

I am writing to request that you assert executive privilege with respect to confidential Department of Justice (“Department”) documents that are responsive to the subpoena issued by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform of the United States House of Representatives (“Committee”) on October 25, 2011. The subpoena relates to the Committee’s investigation into Operation Fast and Furious, a law enforcement operation conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (“ATF”) and the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona to stem the illegal flow of firearms from the United States to drug cartels in Mexico (“Fast and Furious”). The Committee has scheduled a meeting for June 20, 2012, to vote on a resolution holding me in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with the subpoena. (Read Complete letter Here:)

Well America,  The whole ugly truth about Fast and Furious has just hit us square in the face. The truth is President Hussein Obama has known the about F & F before its inception. Obama leaves no doubt that he had knowledge about this failed operation which took the life of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. It further reveals that Obama and his corrupt Attorney General have absolutely no respect for Agent Terry's family nor does he have any respect for any Border Patrol Agent, Police Officer, or Deputy Sheriff.

The Blood Is On My Hands..Oh No..Barack Barack!

Agent Terry served his country with honor and distinction,  and gave in his life in the service of his country, WAS MURDERED; and was Murdered by a gun that was given to the Mexican Drug smuggling cartels by SOMEONE  in the Department of Justice. Those are the true facts, however, it appears that the Who What and Why will never be answered by this administration. That is until a new administration is elected and reveals the truths of this horror.
Obama and Holder will continue the evasion from Justice by not providing the documents which have been requested by Rep. Darrell Issa of California, head of the Congressional Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

These are the Officers and Agents who are charged with the security of our borders, and Obama has literally spit in their face. His action goes to prove Obama has no regard for the United States congress and or the laws of our nation.  All of the involved individuals, including Eric Holder and his henchman are free to do as the please, as they know Obama will cover up any illegal activity, ie, Fast and Furious. Rep. Issa met with Attorney General Holder on Tuesday in hopes of negotiating a compromise. After the meeting, he released the following statement:

"I had hoped that after this evening’s meeting I would be able to tell you that the Department had delivered documents that would justify the postponement of tomorrow’s vote on contempt.  The Department told the Committee on Thursday that it had documents it could produce that would answer our questions. Today, the Attorney General informed us that the Department would not be producing those documents. The only offer they made involved us ending our investigation

“While I still hope the Department will reconsider its decision so tomorrow’s vote can be postponed, after this meeting I cannot say that I am optimistic.  At this point, we simply do not have the documents we have repeatedly said we need to justify the postponement of a contempt vote in committee.”

Minnesota City Rejects Islamic Center On Zoning Ask Holder For Help!

Mutt & Jeff

Most of all  sane people knows exactly on what side of the fence Obama Administration stands for, and it is not Christianity.  So it comes as no surprise at all when the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is on bended knees asking for brother Hussein Obamas intervention.

CAIR is pissed off when a duly elected city council members rejected the plans on a mosque because it violated the communities zoning regulations. I must obey the building codes which are in place.  If I want to build anything, I must adhere to these regulations, if not I will not be allowed to build, period. But, the Muslims do not want to go by the rules, they want to be special and not go by the rules.

St. Anthony's rejection of a proposed Islamic center marks the first time in seven years that a new Muslim house of worship has been blocked by a local government in Minnesota.
City leaders said the decision was solely a land-use issue, but Muslim leaders expressed fears that Minnesota may be joining the ranks of other states where proposed mosques and Islamic centers have been blocked by government amid anti-Islamic rhetoric and intense community resistance.
"This is the first one [in Minnesota] where we're seeing so much anti-Muslim hate involved," said Lori Saroya, president of the Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.  Source

The Hamas-linked Islamic supremacist hate group known as the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is bent on forcing St. Anthony City Council to accept this mosque, even though it violates zoning laws. And they're asking the DoJ to investigate the "hate" that supposedly got it rejected, in yet another attempt to strong arm the American people into being passive and submissive in the face of Islamic supremacism.
An update on this story. "Minn. City Rejects Islamic Center — and Now CAIR Wants the DOJ to Investigate," from The Blaze, June 14 (thanks to all who sent this in):

The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is calling on the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate a possible “anti-Muslim” hate crime after St. Anthony City Council almost unanimously rejected plans for a new Islamic center due to zoning concerns.On Tuesday, St. Anthony City Council voted 4-1 against providing a conditional use permit for the “Abu-Huraira Islamic Center” after tabling the item for months, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. It is reportedly the first time in seven years that an Islamic place of worship has been blocked by local government in Minnesota.
“This is the first one [in Minnesota] where we’re seeing so much anti-Muslim hate involved,” said Lori Saroya, president of the Minnesota chapter of CAIR.
The imam of the Islamic center, Sheik Ahmed Burale, said his congregation, which consists of roughly 200 people, still wants the St. Anthony location and may take the council to court over its decision, according to the Star Tribune.
There were reportedly “several residents” who criticized Islam and at least one called the religion “evil” and one that condones violence.

Where's The Outrage!

By Judge Andrew P. Napolitano
Published June 07, 2012

ince this particular piece didn’t get that much coverage, I hope the good Judge and FOX News will have no objections to this being used, in full, with full accreditation back to FOX News and Judge Andrew P. Napolitano. This is a piece that needs to be seen by ALL Americans. TexasFred


For the past few weeks, I have been writing in this column about the government's use of drones and challenging their constitutionality on Fox News Channel where I work. I once asked on air what Thomas Jefferson would have done if -- had drones existed at the time -- King George III had sent drones to peer inside the bedroom windows of Monticello.

I suspect that Jefferson and his household would have trained their muskets on the drones and taken them down. I offer this historical anachronism as a hypothetical only, not as one who is urging the use of violence against the government.

Nevertheless, what Jeffersonians are among us today? When drones take pictures of us on our private property and in our homes, and the government uses the photos as it wishes, what will we do about it? Jefferson understood that when the government assaults our privacy and dignity, it is the moral equivalent of violence against us.

The folks who hear about this, who either laugh or groan, cannot find it humorous or boring that their every move will be monitored and photographed by the government.
Don't believe me that this is coming? The photos that the drones will take may be retained and used or even distributed to others in the government so long as the "recipient is reasonably perceived to have a specific, lawful governmental function” in requiring them. And for the first time since the Civil War, the federal government will deploy military personnel inside the United States and publicly acknowledge that it is deploying them "to collect information about U.S. persons.”

It gets worse. If the military personnel see something of interest from a drone, they may apply to a military judge or "military commander” for permission to conduct a physical search of the private property that intrigues them. And, any "incidentally acquired information” can be retained or turned over to local law enforcement.

Mexico Cracks Down On Illegal Aliens...Again!

Now is that something, Mexico is cracking down on the illegals in their country, funny thing, when the United States or independent States ie, Arizona crack down, Mexico is the first to scream that we discriminating against the Hispanics. 

However, when Mexico cracks down, all is well, A-Ok.  Where is all the screaming and protest against Mexico for tossing out the illegal Alien in their Country.  I do not even hear a whimper.

The Mexican Senate has approved a new immigration measure that seeks protections of unauthorized migrants within its borders, as well as more services for them.  The bill also cracks down on undocumented immigrants in Mexico, allowing federal police to check immigration documents of people they encounter during their work, and imposing fines on employers who hire people who are illegally there.

The immigration reform measure, passed 84-to-15 by the Mexican senate, comes amid mounting international pressure for Mexico to address what many Central Americans who illegally pass through there  usually en route to the United States -- long have complained is abusive treatment by Mexican authorities.
