Obama Spokesman Says 'Obama Ready to RULE on Day 1'
Newsbusters ^ | November 10, 2008 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 11/10/2008 3:07:26 AM PST by clifcrds

The co-chair of Barack Obama's Transition Team, Valerie Jarrett, appeared on Meet the Press this weekend and used, shall we say, an interesting word to described what she thinks Barack Obama will be doing in January when he's officially sworn into office. She told Tom Brokaw that Obama will be ready to "rule" on day one. It's a word that reflects the worst fears that people have for Obama the "arrogant," the "messiah," that imagines he's here to "rule" instead of govern.

No, this is no innocent slip up. Reading what "The One" has laid out for us on his web site I do believe that he will rule and not govern! But then again having a "ruler" instead of a "president" is change . . . isn't it?

Oh dear Lord, they aren’t even trying to watch their words.

Govern?

Lead?

But rule?

God help us.

Is it too late to organize a barricade around the White House on January 19? This guy shouldn’t be anywhere near Washington D.C.

My, my...shouldn’t that be “serve”??? Even “lead” would be better than “rule.” A huge stink should follow that telling remark, just to let BO know that we don’t need a ruler in the White House.
We fought a revolutionary war about that issue, and George Washington quashed the idea when his admirers wanted him to be king. And Barack, you are no George Washington.

These people have a fundamental misunderstanding of the relationship between the American people and the American government.

Unfortunately, an awful lot of our fellow citizens share the same fundamental misunderstanding. If you tell them that granting Barack Obama the power of a medieval king will mean the price of gas will stay at $2.00/gallon and they won't have to pay for it when they go to the dentist, they'll give an enthusiastic “thumbs up”!

They have been telling us exactly what they are going to do, we’re in just such denial it is happening we can’t hear them.

Rule (Executive Order)
Manufactured Crisis (Directives NSPD-51, and HSPD-20)
Jan. 21st (Powell gave us the date!)
Youth Corp, Health Corp, Energy Corp
Civilian Corp just as strong as our military
Seizure of Retirement funds (Billions of dollars)

We are shortly going to witness abuses of power not seen before in the former USA.

Everyone should have seen this for the megalomania it is when That One gave his speech in front of the rented set from "Julius Caesar".
