Hitler didn’t really purge (the military) until they tried to kill him. I am no fan of Hitler—but I think his purge made sense in his mind. Stalin, he was just paranoid.

Unfortunately, I don’t see anybody on the horizon preparing to outflank our Santa Anna due to our sacrifice. I just see more of Santa Anna’s minions.

Hope I’m wrong.

...Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.” Who is the Chairman now? Is this something that can really be done?
********************
Don’t recall his name, but have seen him testifying in Congress. He’s basically a mealy-mouthed hand puppet that repeats the admin lies and refuses to stand up for our military, while Obama and Hagel continue to cut our military budget to the point where it will be useless in any major conflicts.

In 1991 with the R King video the Weather Underground came climbing up out of the sewer and declared war against the US.

In stead of using domestic terrorist like was done before, they decided to use foreign terrorist.

The terrorist attacks since the 1st WTC bombing in 1993 have followed the Weather Underground playbook.

Find an incident, a spark to ignite the flame, ratchet it up to a raging inferno.

In other words orchestrate civil unrest follow with terrorist attack.

On 9/11/2001 the NY Times had a picture of Bill Ayers standing on the American flag.

We were told it was just a coincidence.

It wasn’t.

It was an in your face message to Bush “we’re back stop us if you can”.

There is an al Qaida doc recovered in Afghanistan.

It’s a letter from OBl to Mullah Omar listed as doc# AFGP-2002-600321 in what was the CTC at West Points Harmony Database.

Take the info from that doc and you will find OBl himself makes it clear the terrorist attacks follow the Weather Underground playbook.

You will also find out the person responsible for making the “preparations” for the attacks, that would be the civil unrest, is one Hillary Clinton.

Notice with Benghazi there was civil unrest followed with terrorist attack and we were told the civil unrest wasn’t planned it was “spontaneous” and the terrorist attack wasn’t planned the terrorist simply picked up on the civil unrest and “spontaneously’ carried out the attack.

Weather Underground playbook.

From the 1st WTC bombing which we were told was a “spontaneous” response to bush sending troops into Somalia, to Benghazi which we were told was a “spontaneous” response to a protest over a video, the pattern to the attack are virtually all the same, orchestrate civil unrest follow with terrorist attack.

The jug eared clown in the WH wasn’t anywhere around when the terrorist attacks were started using the Weather Underground playbook, Hillary was.

You can’t cure stupid, but a .22 in the ear will stop it from being spread.

I think it is more probable that he will ask Congress to pass, in effect, an enabling act and that Congress will do it.

In effect, we've had a series of enabling acts of limited scope. The ACA is such a complex mess that "the Secretary" is empowered to do make all sorts of arbitrary decisions that normally would require legislation. The EPA makes all manner of outrageous decisions, pushing a couple of unfortunate SJC decisions beyond their bounds. Regulating the pollutant CO2; or ditches that may eventually drain to navigable

Awaters; or their recently withdrawn assertion that they could levy outrageous fines without any due process. And don't get me started about the NLRB...

A general enabling act would be unlikely to pass. But, an enabling act with an immigration scope might get buried inside some complex immigration bill when the House and Senate conference. And then, the monster would emerge.

Is Barack Obama Plotting a Coup?

Sure looks that way from here, more or less daily since the election campaign of 2008.

That's like asking: "Is it expensive?" If you have to ask...

Bank on it—Obama has no choice. If he leaves office the dam will break on his scandals and he will go to prison-— He must stay in power—or have his puppet replace him. He has discovered Hillary will not play that game—maybe Holder? Biden? As long as he’s in office he can use his power to keep the truth from being known—but, lacking that power he is doomed—along with many of his cohorts and cronies. He will cancel the next election due to some crisis—just watch.

America not only turned away from Him, America did exactly what He told the Israelites not to do before they went into the Promised Land, sacrifice their children. Invasion and national destruction is a consequence. Oh, and it was the only time in the Old Testament that God said He would NOT forgive.

“However, the LORD did not turn from the fierceness of His great wrath with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked Him. And the LORD said, “I will remove Judah also from My sight, as I have removed Israel. And I will cast off Jerusalem, this city which I have chosen, and the temple (house) of which I said, ‘My name shall be there’.”
“Surely at the command (mouth) of the LORD it came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, and also for the innocent blood which he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; AND THE LORD WOULD NOT FORGIVE.” (All caps mine) 2 Kings 23: 26 & 27 and 24: 3 & 4

How many nations are now practicing child sacrifice legally? Have any Islamic nations legalized abortion? Did you know that Israel was invaded the first time by the Babylonians?

Very good. I agree completely.

Re: Perhaps a coup has been averted...

No. The coup has already occurred. Obama is an illegal alien Usurper. He continues to demonstrate that he is an enemy of the United States by his every action under color of the Presidency. Many more instances will occur.

It's that simple.


Beat me to it.

At this point the coup is a fait accompli.

There was that ‘Night of the Long Knives’ thing from 1934, under the guise of “nipping treason in the bud”. Not that such action would EVER be considered by our current regime, but I bet they’d love to be able to get away with it...

Actually I like using the word Coup. Obama is accusing Republicans of planning to Impeach him (I wish), to gin up votes/campaign cash, stirring up fears among the idiots.

We need to fight back with the same hyperbole, and scare the idiots into voting Republican with the word: Coup.
