John McCain keeps up Libya push
Politico ^ | 2011-06-15 | Meredith Shiner

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Tuesday that a resolution he’s spent months crafting on Libya will likely call on the White House to increase its communication with Congress, an addition that could help pick up support for the stalled measure.

Last week the Foreign Relations Committee postponed a mark up of McCain’s resolution, written in partnership with Foreign Relations Chairman John Kerry (D-Mass.), fearing the measure would not get enough votes.

“I think as the situation has evolved in Libya, and frankly the lack of consultation and reporting to Congress has gone on, then we will be working on more specific language about requiring some consultation and reporting to Congress,” McCain told reporters Tuesday.

McCain was adamant, though, that the thrust of the resolution will not change. The resolution backs President Barack Obama’s use of force in the region.

“But fundamentally, I don’t envision us changing it,” McCain said of the overall resolution. “It will be done in a bipartisan fashion.”

” Why do you refer to the “New World Order” as a scam? I view it as a well thought out plan to control the world’s economy and population.”

Perhaps I chose the word poorly, but to a patriotic, thinking person, it is a scam.

” Handpicked by the Mainstream Media...originally to allow Hillary Clinton to ascend to the presidency.

Then the perfect storm happened and an even more Marxist and PC candidate appeared from the shadows and pushed her aside.

Didn’t matter though. McCain remained the willing dupe regardless of the opposition. “

Correct

To a patriotic, thinking person, it is a hanging offense, TREASON.

Being politically correct and calling treason a scam doesn’t do anyone any good. They went to college to become attorneys and they know damn well what comprises treason, so there’s no excuse in my mind. Let ‘em swing in the morning sun!

McLame is disgusting and the reason we lost in 2008.

Will Mc Queeg just not GO AWAY???

(Most of) The Tea Party tried to rid the Senate of him last fall. Anything less than 100% effort was a result of poor judgement and misguided intentions.

“Will we be seeing a McCain/Kerry ticket?”

If we do see that ticket you will see Barry winning a second term. Many Conservatives will just stay home.

I seem to recall that “New World Order” was first talked up during BUsh senior’s administration. Did it start out as a scam, or has it gradually morphed into one by default or design? Here is a recent Libya article indicating that the Russians and Turks have now joined the efforts to encourage Gaddafi to leave.

You are correct concerning Bush I and the New World Order.

To answer your question, I am of this opinion, LBJ always spoke
in terms of Great Society and War on Poverty, to which we then
after Nixon, Carter, Ronald Reagan, then Bush I came the phrase
New World Order. I believe America has witnessed a continuance
of to where we have the present and zer0.

Was the whole situation planned? Honestly, I wish I knew.

It was indeed Bush Sr. who first mentioned the goal of the “New World Order” At first, I thought he was just using “UN Speak” but it turned out it was much more specific.....and insideous.

UN speak ... I too thought it may possibly be such at the initiation of the phrase by Bush I. I still wonder if it all was preplanned, and though Ronald Reagan may have tried to stop them (all of them), yet possibly Former President Reagan was overwhelmed by those who looked to destroy America, after Former President Reagan destroyed the Berlin Wall, and defeated the Soviet Union.

I had a long telephone conversation with a long time FReeper on this. Neither of us can name all of those who wish to turn the country into socialist hellhole. We have mutual suspects, but no concrete proof. Personally, I believe there is a well thought out agenda by a group of international bankers and certain politicians to turn us into serfs. (I have an international banking background)

maybe one day the pieces of the puzzle will all fall into place and then the truth will be so obvious there will be none able to deny. Here is to that day!
