Soros's CAP gives Obama his marching orders to subvert the will of the people
The American Thinker ^ | November 17, 2010 | Ed Lasky

Posted on 11/17/2010 6:11:25 PM PST by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

George Soros funds the Center for American Progress, which has been characterized as Barack Obama's Ideas Factory. John Podesta, its head, led the transition team when Barack Obama became President. The Center has also become a hiring hall for the Obama team, filling its positions with former employees (among these was controversial Van Jones -- who now is back at the Center).

Apparently, George Soros and his Center are upset that the American people placed a roadblock in their plans when we rose up and painted the nation red. The Center now is providing a blueprint of ways Barack Obama can do an end run around the people's will by resorting to methods that will strike many of us as being improper-to say the least. Relying on executive orders, interpretation of regulations, rule -making and the like they are collectively a recipe for even more power being assumed by President Obama.

From Tuesday's Politico Playbook:

[The] Center for American Progress today is releasing a report, "Power of the President," proposing 30 executive actions the president can take to advance progressive change in the areas of energy, the economy, health care, education, foreign policy, and national security. "The following authorities can be used to ensure progress on key issues facing the country today: Executive orders, Rulemaking, Agency management, Convening and creating public-private partnerships , Commanding the armed forces, Diplomacy.
The New York Times fleshes out these proposals with some suggestions about policy changes across the board. The ideology of George Soros shines through the Center's report as it justifies this forceful approach to circumvent Congress when it states that:

[The] legislative battles that Mr. Obama waged during his first two years - notably on health care and financial regulatory reform - have created a weariness among the general public with the process of making laws. And it hints it has not helped Mr. Obama politically in the process.

In other words, when Congress passed a variety of laws Americans became dismayed by the horse-trading and bribes that were resorted to by Democrats to impose these policies on us. Instead of compromise and listening to the American people, Soros counsels that more forceful measures should be used to override the will of the American people.

And this is the man the Democratic Party has as their sugar daddy and who various Democratic leaders over the years have defended and praised (for example, as shown by this letter from 11 Democratic lawmakers).

He is certainly a dictatorial daddy.

S0r0$ and Zer0 are RED. We painted the country blue or green or orange, just not RED.

Don't let the MSM define the words and arguments.

What in the Sam Hill is “Create a virtual U.S. statistical agency” ??????

Soros wants to track the luggage and art pieces sent to Neuchwanstein again, along with the “contents” of the ‘white’ boxcars?

Nothing new, here. zero has been doing that since 1/20/09/

However, if zero keeps pursuing $oroS' agenda, it will either pave the way for his impeachment or a revolution. Either way, it will not be good for America and will be worse for $oro$ who should be in prison for his efforts to control our political system!!

Thats a particularly coy way of putting it.

Obama is a puppet. He is a cardboard cutout of a president.

He doesn't spend much time governing because he doesn't govern. He gets bored being president because he isn't president.

The RED/BLUE color switch was done intentionally by the MSN.

They knew what they were doing. Obviously, the Dems should be RED.

Just a curious question...did a Soros foundation pay for Obama’s education at Harvard?

That is true. The media has been at this cause of defeating liberty for a very long time. It is like calling pro-life activists, anti-abortion and calling the pro abortion activists, pro choice.

I can not beleive how sick our country is.

I have no doubt Obama is going to do this. He has no ability to work with any non-communist - he hates America.

So, what can we do to stop him? We learned from the birth certificate mess, he owns all the judges, lawyers and politicans. None would protect the constitution. So who is going to be able to stop him from carrying out Soros’ commands?

Democrats used to be red, Republicans blue. Started that way back when the majority of Americans had black-and-white TVs. Blue showed up darker than red on the monochrome screens. Hence, for most viewers, Democrat states were "bright," Republican states were "dim."

During Bush 41, the MSM realized that most people now had color TVs, and that "red" looked like "commie" and blue looked "cool." Uh-oh! We're giving the Republicans a subliminal advantage!

So for Clinton, for whom they were pulling out all the stops (well, as many as they could back then, for Obama they really pulled out all the stops), the colors were given the big switcheroo. Overnight, Republicans became Red, Democrats Blue. If the Devil was associated with the color teal, the Republicans would have be the teal party.

Repubs should switch to using orange maybe. Of course that would prolly lead to red AND yellow jokes. Green isn’t good either. Neither is purple. Ummmmm.....geez. I need a box of Crayons for some help. Turquoise? Aqua? Magenta? Gold and/or silver. Hmmmmmm.

The list goes on for thousands of ‘newspeak’ definitions.

A good example is how they name their groups with purposeful deception.

The People for the American way, is a hard Communist group.

The ACLU constantly fight to shut down ‘civil liberties’.

With the Left, everything is upside down and reverse. Good is bad, perversion is better than morality, Christians are dangerous murders but muslims are peaceful.

Everything they stand for is in direct contention with reality, common sense, and G-D.

The change of colors was assigned by the MSM and eagerly accepted by conservatives. Traditionally Red is the color of the left and especially Communists. Blue is the color of traditionalists and conservatives. Black is the color of anarchists. Because of that Red has had bad connotations to most people and MSM tried to switch the colors as well as the feelings they engendered. It was disconcerting how instantly the Right accepted the MSM’s color decree. Conservatives tend to accept the Left as the arbiter of language and the right loses a lot of arguments because the left changes definitions on in mid discussion AND CONSERVATIVES ACCEPT IT!

No. A Saudi Arabian Prince paid for Obama’s education at Harvard.
