Former presidential candidate Alan Keyes has given perhaps his most dire warning yet, saying that the Obama administration is preparing to stage terror attacks, declare martial law and cancel the 2012 elections, which is why they are demonizing their political enemies as criminals and terrorists.
Keyes is best known for his performance during the 2000 Republican presidential debates, when he was accredited by many media outlets as being the clear winner during a series of debates with George W. Bush and John McCain.
“It’s obvious that they will stop at nothing,” Keyes told attendees of a reception in Fort Wayne, adding, “We may wake up one day and there’s a series of terrorist attacks, the economy is paralysed….martial law will be declared everywhere in the United States and it won’t end until the crisis ends.”

‘Please tell me Keyes did not really say these things.’
I know. I believe this idiot President has a few socialist tricks up his sleeve, but all of this Black Helicopter stuff gets on my nerves. A bunch of people screaming ‘a few attacks, martial law, then we’re screwed’. Just like that. Sorry, not buying it...
Sometime I think Allen Keys and Bill Cosby are long lost twin brothers. They have some many wise things to say and every third blue they are just off the scale crazy.
Isn’t this almost exactly the same garbage that paranoid liberals said that Bush was going to do? And we laughed at them?
It’s alarmist garbage.
There’s a universal truth in government: Nothing is secret. Any conspiracy falls apart in short time, because government workers can’t keep secrets. So if there were staged terrorist attacks, it’d be outted in a short time, likely accompanied by audio/video of the principles involved.
It’s why 9/11 conspiracy idiots fail always, along with the Moon Landing Was Staged crowd. It is impossible for these secrets to continue without it being spilled.
Little things, no one cares about? Oh, sure, the ‘secret’ might be kept, mostly because the reporters that hear this babbling just don’t think it important enough to publish.
Trust me, the boy marxist couldn’t impose martial law with any hope of success.
Does anybody in their right mind really think the US military would support a power group takeover by Obama opposing and oppressing the American People?
If push came to shove, I am not too worried about where the battle lines will be drawn and who will be where, and how it will all turn out.
They had just read a few pages from the stories of Salvador Allende and Mel Zelaya, these idiots--there are limits, SERIOUS limits, to their power grabs. Even Hugo Chavez is perilously on the verge of being strung up by his feet one of these days in the Plaza Bolivar to the cheers of millions of freed Venezuelans. History cannot prove me wrong on this.
Get a grip. This is over the top!!!
Common sense and wisdom are needed, not knee-jerk prognostications lacking substantiation.
Would the military cooperate?
I also remember that Clinton was going to do this in 2000. At least NewsMax and WND would have had you believe that.
It’s alarmist garbage.
BING BING BING! We have a winner!
15 years ago, I would have agreed with you. Then came OKC and TWA 800.
And yet...
I’ve been thinking that a guy who knows what Bill Ayers did, and that Bill Ayers feels he didn’t do enough... and still hung around the guy.
What would that guy do if someone DID try to take down the US?
Not necessarily; a small group “in the know” whose members were in powerful positions AND who kept the secret could get pretty far along before they were discovered.
Also, even if they were ‘discovered’ by one or two people they could act indifferent/as-if-he-were-a-nutball and thereby “keep the lid” on the plan.
I’ve read these type of posts since FR started..
It’s pure bullsh!t.
But if it happens...we’re ready.
Has Ed Dames ever been right about anything?
Romanian term limits comes to mind...
Turn off coast to coast and read a good book
