On March 16th, President Obama signed a new Executive Order which expands upon a prior order issued in 1950 for Disaster Preparedness, and gives the office of the President complete control over all the resources in the United States in times of war or emergency.
The National Defense Resources Preparedness order gives the Executive Branch the power to control and allocate energy, production, transportation, food, and even water resources by decree under the auspices of national defense and national security. The order is not limited to wartime implementation, as one of the order's functions includes the command and control of resources in peacetime determinations.
Additionally, each cabinet under the Executive Branch has been given specific powers when the order is executed, and include the absolute control over food, water, and other resource distributions.
The Obama administration appears to be preparing for a long drawn out war in the Middle East, or at the very least, an expected crisis that will require the need to override Constitutional authority and claim dominion over all resources in the United States under the guise of national defense. With the rise in Disaster Preparedness growing for both individuals and states leading up to yesterday's Executive Order, the mood of the nation points strongly towards some event or disaster that will require massive preparations on a national as well as local scale.

If I am wrong, please, someone out there with the knowledge, please clarify it for us.
I wish it were not so.I wish as a nation we would turn our face back to God and seek His healing,but I fear it is not to be.
Enabling act.
Please check out 110 upthread. A poster postulates from earlier thread.
Are they worried about Mutiny among the deployed soldiers? And among those who are still here? With Panetta saying that the Administration answers to NATO and the UN and not the US Constitution, they are one matchstick away from Mutiny. But I tend to have a vivid imagination, so I doubt this is what they’re thinking.
And you wish everybody knew this four years ago
I wish at least half the people in this country knew this today.
After four years of the regime it,repeal bad laws, will have to be done at every level of govt.to retake the Republic.
After eight years....I don’t know.
You’re full of $h!t bonehead!
I served with plenty of “lifers” in the Corps and know plenty who have retired and done well. When I left the Corps and became an AF “lifer” I have also done extremely well as have most all I served with.
It sounds like the only one who couldn’t hack it was you. Were you a draftee? That would explain a lot of the attitude.
Thanks Rita......
Sadly, a lot of elitists knew this about Obama when they shilled for him. They want a dictatorship. They have decided they have “progressed” beyond the red neck’s constitution. Truly evil and stupid people in very high and middle places.
The real question is what is going on behind the scenes that would even cause him to think of such a thing? Maybe this is coming from somewhere else!
Your heart is worth more than your personal fortune!

DISASTER PREPAREDNESS | February 27, 2012
States begin to prepare for economic collapse in the US
Kenneth Schortgen Jr
Finance Examiner
On Friday, February 24th, legislators in the state of Wyoming began passage of a bill that will launch a study to determine how the state would deal with a complete economic or political collapse in the US. The state of Wyoming is just one of several states across the country seeking ways to deal with the very real potential of an economic collapse as debt and dollar devaluation threatens the monetary fabric of American society.
House Bill 85 passed on first reading by a voice vote. It would create a state-run government continuity task force, which would study and prepare Wyoming for potential catastrophes, from disruptions in food and energy supplies to a complete meltdown of the federal government.
The task force would look at the feasibility of:
Wyoming issuing its own alternative currency, if needed. And House members approved an amendment Friday by state Rep. Kermit Brown, R-Laramie, to have the task force also examine conditions under which Wyoming would need to implement its own military draft, raise a standing army… - Trib.com

While the state of Wyoming is in the early stages of determining a course of action in the case of economic collapse, three other states in 2011 have debated and passed legislation to legalize the use of gold and silver as currency in intra-state transactions. Utah, Virginia, and North Carolina have proposed or are implementing these programs right now, and as dollar devaluation from the Federal Reserve increases, many other states could join in on the discussion.
Besides state legislatures, individuals are recognizing the growing potential for a national or global collapse of economic and political stability. Since November of last year, background checks for gun purchases have increased over the past several years, and disaster preparedness gear made up a large portion of items bought during the Christmas holiday shopping season.
The threat of local and national economic collapse is no longer a conspiracy, as just last week, Stockton, California became the third major city, along with Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and Jefferson County, Alabama to prepare for, and declare bankruptcy. This does not include the decline of cities such as Detroit and Baltimore who are pulling back city services in large portions of their municipalities, and leaving large areas open to crime and urban decay.
Western states such as Wyoming and Utah carry a self-reliant spirit that is often not found in major cities East of the Mississippi which rely heavily on government benefits and welfare for sustainability. And as the potential for economic collapse increases four years after the credit crash of 2008, some states are choosing to prepare for that collapse in the face of a national government unable and unwilling to support citizens over corporate and bank bailouts.

If enough people refuse to cooperate, he’ll have a hard time doing this. I don’t care if I am the only one. I am not obeying any order of this treasonous government. They can send a swat team in to murder me.
Yes, and there are plenty of freepers whinning that the examiner is a “blog” and they don’t want it posting on FR!
Sadly a lot of people voted for him out of racism.
What’s a Redneck Constitution?
Yes, there are a lot of evil people.
What’s your point?
Why do you use that term? This post is the Examiner.com's reaction to the EO. It's completely different from the other threads.
At the time I posted this, the Examiner.com article was the only article I could find about this topic.
And if that doesn't work, he'll make it so it's the last election ever.
