"And why does he want this?"

I'll take a WAG and say it's so he can fabricate a "crisis" by which he can deploy the bulk of our armed forces overseas so there will be less military resistance when the SHTF as he imposes martial law using his "civilian security force."

Of course he fails to take into consideration millions of armed civilians, many of whom have had prior military service and have never forgotten their oaths, myself included.

Why do I suddenly get an image of America as a porcupine with the quills pointing inwards?

And lawmakers seemed happy to comply.

Therein lies the money quote. Time to hit the phones, guys. I'm sick of these imbeciles giving O whatever the hell he wants with zero consideration for the people. Let them know we're watching them!

“Where are the code pink protests?”

Code Pink was air-kissing Bigfoot Obama/Soetero in `Frisco last week.
Libya, Egypt, Sudan, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq ...
Barry could bomb Ghiardeli Square and the pinkos would still give him a pass.

This could serve various aspects of his Marxist agenda. I doubt if it has anything to do with the benefit of America’s national defense — more like his own defense.

Only a minority of Americans are still naive enough to trust the motives of this person. Every move he makes lends more POWER TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT over domestic forces primarily. Again, I doubt if he really cares about foreign matters at all.
