This Is Starting to Look Like a Pattern of Political Moves and Prosecutions
PJ MEDIA ^ | January 24, 2014 | Bryan Preston

Posted on 01/24/2014 11:45:01 PM PST by Jonah Vark

1. IRS Targets Conservative groups - IRS auditor reaffirms that conservatives, not liberals, were targeted

2. IRS Scandal – FBI Closes Case - Obama FBI Closed Case on IRS Targeting Scandal Before Interviewing Single One of 292 Targeted Groups (Video)

3. IRS Harassed Sarah Palin’s Dad - Revealed: Obama’s IRS Harassed Sarah Palin’s Dad Six Times Since 2008

4. Federal Court Indicts Director of Anti-Obama Film – It Begins… Director of Anti-Obama Film “2016: Obama’s America” Indicted by Federal Court

5. New York Governor’s Dept of Labor Subpoenas James O’Keefe, Project Veritas - NY Governor Cuomo Subpoenas Conservative Activist James O’Keefe

6. IRS Harasses Secret Hollywood Conservative Group – Demands List of Members

7. Latina Actress Fired After Appearing in Ad for Tea Party Candidate (Video)

8. Silencing the Tea Party With New IRS Rules

9. IRS Targets Veterans, Demands Private Records Of American Legion

10. VIDEO>>> Chuck Schumer Calls on IRS to Target Tea Party Activities

11. Obama Blames FOX News, Rush Limbaugh for His Failures …(Too Much Free Speech)

12. NYC Mayor De Blasio Agrees With Cuomo: Conservatives Need to Get Out (Audio)

This is starting to make Nixon look like a walk in the park…

A pattern indeed, that stretches back to 2010 and the IRS abuse, or 2009 if you include Obama’s joke that he would use the IRS against his opponents.

Here is one more fact. In 2012, Obama’s campaign deliberately disabled safeguards on its website, allowing it to collect illegal foreign donations. It did accept illegal foreign donations; to what extent is unknown. Those donations, and the campaign staff who disabled the safeguards, were never investigated or prosecuted. The media never showed much interest in investigating, either.

I do not think He is very happy with us, and if you know your Bible, there's not much reason to think mercy is in the cards.

I think only a major revival can save the nation. Since I do not think there will be one, I think God's divine judgement will rain down on America. I heard my pastor say once, if God does not judge the country, He will have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah. I think the Obungler and his minions are the first part of the judgment. I think it will get really, really ugly out there, before it gets better. With all the garbage that these slime bags have already gotten away with, I think physical persecution of Christians will happen before too long. I just wonder if people will fight back physically, or get on their knees and go quietly into the night?

Who says the US is still a truly-democratic country? Sure, the people go through the motions of elections every two years, but how effective is that, really?

As someone once said, if voting actually changed anything, it’d be made illegal.

Fer sure. If the people don't vote for conservatives, our freedoms are doomed. That means our natural rights, privileges are subject to majoritarianism, to entirely democratic decisions unencumbered by enumerated powers.

Our republic was set up to deliver the legitimate functions of a national government, (defense, pay national debts, provide a common currency, encourage/regulate commerce, etc) subject to the consent of the people, while simultaneously protecting the property and rights of minorities.

With the 17th Amendment of 1913, we overnight went from being a federal republic and became a democratic republic. The framers knew that democratic republics were inevitably doomed to eventual tyranny, and never remotely considered a popularly derived congress.

Until the states are returned to the senate, our totalitarian fate is sealed.

Lois Lerner should be tried convicted and executed for her crimes disrupting a fair election. Her crimes exceed murder and rape in harm to the people

Bingo!

A government that allows none of its ruled to run their own lives certainly isn’t going to allow those same fools to actually choose who will run the government.

This list needs to add that Dr. Ben Carson was investigated by the IRS after speaking at the prayer breakfast that took Obama to task.

It's always seems to be a Democrat administration

. . . the purpose of the Great Sedition Trial of 1944 was to destroy Roosevelt's pre-war critics as attention turned to post-war matters particularly about relations with communists. IMO.

The Great Sedition Trial of 1944

Once again I say the left is moving rapidly to initiate a Great Sedition Trial of 2014 that matches what FDR tried to do to opponents with the Great Sedition Trial of 1944. FDR started with small fry and planned to move up the chain of opposition.

FDR failed. Obama might succeed, the Establishment today is arguably aging 1960s New Left Marxist-Alinsky radical, campus psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue. The Establishment in FDR's days were Americans who eventually stopped:

". . . one of the blackest marks on the record of American jurisprudence. In the legal world, none can recall a case where so many Americans were brought to trial for political persecution and were so arrogantly denied the rights [guaranteed] an American citizen under the Constitution.”

Sedition has become opposing Obama.

Wot? Nixon did it?

If he did it why was the word endeavoured used five times in the nine articles of impeachment?

  1. endeavoured to obtain
  2. endeavoured to impede and frustrate lawful inquiries by duly constituted executive, judicial and legislative entities
  3. endeavouring to interfere with the conduct of investigations
  4. endeavouring to misuse the Central Intelligence Agency
  5. endeavouring to cause prospective defendants . . . .

Admitted to crimes, Holder/Obama dropped prosecution.

Prosecuted by Holder/Obama.

I will be praying for Dinesh.

Dinesh D'Souza explains salvation in debate conclusion

Dinesh believes in Jesus Christ. He has defended God in countless debates.

Yes, he shared a hotel room with his fiancé and his first marriage divorce had not gone through. He resigned his college position because of it, and it was a Christian brother who privately confronted him. And, we don't even know if they committed fornication, but the appearance was enough for Dinesh to repent.

For that sin, God forgives.

But now we have the left, who not only is prosecuting and persecuting Dinesh, and on top of that they are throwing his forgiven sins in his face in the hopes of attacking him further. The same people who engage and defend homosexuality and abortion.

Perhaps God will intervene, and this will prove to be Obama's Waterloo.

It could happen. God is not to be trifled with, and Obama and the left have clearly spit in His face.

We shall see.
