A member of the president’s National Security Council who shares Noam Chomsky’s foreign-policy goals? An influential presidential adviser whom 1960s revolutionary Tom Hayden treats as a fellow radical? ... Samantha Power, senior director of multilateral affairs for the National Security Council and perhaps the principal architect of our current intervention in Libya, is all of these things. These scary-sounding tidbits might be dismissed as isolated “gotchas.” Unfortunately, when we view these radical outcroppings in the full sweep of her life’s work, Samantha Power emerges as a patriot’s nightmare — a woman determined to subordinate America’s national sovereignty to an international order largely controlled by leftist bureaucrats.
Knowing what Samantha Power wants reveals a great deal about Barack Obama’s own ideological commitments....Power’s thinking represents a bridge between Obama’s domestic- and foreign-policy aspirations...Both Obama and Power are skilled at placing their ultimate ideological goals just out of sight, behind a screen of practical problem-solving....
From the standpoint of traditional calculations of national interest, this war is something akin to madness. Yet without fully articulating it (and that reticence is intentional), Obama and Power are attempting to accustom us to a whole new way of thinking about war, and about America’s place in the world...
The evident tension here is between Power’s desire to act, and to be seen to act, on strictly disinterested humanitarian grounds, and her need to sell humanitarian intervention to the public on grounds of national interest, conventionally defined....
Nowhere is this pattern of disguise and contradiction more evident than on the topic of “American exceptionalism.”...

The sharmuta is a big anti-Semite also and fiercely anti-israel.
She is one evil bitch, and that is an understatement.
The wife of the most dangerous man in America!
A foreign communist Godless destructor as president.
An Irish (l)ass as our Secretary of State.
Who would have thought our final days would come to this insult?
What a terrible advisor...
We have to get these Trotskyites out of the WH. Question is, who will be the best to defeat them?

When we review her appointments and influence plus Bill Ayres, Eric Holder, Rahm Emmanuel, Jeremiah Wright, we get a frightening picture of our alledged President.
Yet only we are frightened. So many so called Americans still back this fraud of a Presidency, this man of dubious religious beliefs, this man who goes to a war he pretends to hate at the drop of a hat when spurred on by 3 women. Powers,Rice and Clinton.
This man who has indebted us to the point of no return and is still doing it.
This man who travels around the world with no0 thought of what it is costing us, the American people who have to pay his bills.
What will become of America if ,God save us, he is elected again.
We have to get these Trotskyites out of the WH. Question is, who will be the best to defeat them?
Whoever comes out an tells it exactly like it is. Whoever can SHOCK America. America is going to get a very unpleasant wake up call.
Trump?
The next step is for the U.S. to lead a UN coalition The precedent has been set.
to invade Israel for "crimes against humanity ".
I.E. Gaza
Trump? Maybe. But he would be perceived as “just a rich guy protecting his interests” by many of the dumbed down idiots out there.
But Trump might get things rolling. It looks like he will run. I hope he doesn’t pull a Ross Perot.
Thats what it has come to.. A people that don't even know what the word citizen means.. or socialist or communist or even fascist..
Jay Lenos "Jaywalking" segment has far reaching implications..
When a people has been generally dumbed down that far.. rational thought is a daydream..
Most now think "permissions" by gov't are "rights".. Whatever the government permits is a "right"..
I saw an interview of her on YouTube and she strongly suggested just that.

will come against Israel.
That is right. That is exactly where she and Obama are taking us. However, they live in a parallel universe and have NO IDEA what kind of blow-back they would get from that.
Samantha Power is just one more demonstration of why liberals should never be allowed to wield power.

Translation, please.
You are right about the USA in the End Times.
You are correct. I’ve been reading her book about genocide, called “A Problem From Hell”. She seems to (at the time of the book’s writing) be a naive leftist who believes that the U.S. military should only be used in a humanitarian crisis. But unlike many on the left, she does advocate using force. She is very critical of the dovish-left. In a sense, this makes her even more dangerous.
Perhaps she really believed there was a humanitarian crisis in Libya, and nagged BO to do something. Being the panty-waste that he is, he demurred. Unfortunately, he opened his mouth about Gaddafi, necessitating that action be taken to back it up, lest Iran and the rest of the world see how empty U.S. threats are.
Over the objections of Gates and the NSA, who warned that there was no definable U.S. national interest for intervening in Libya, Obama sided with France, the UN, and his troika of Valkyries, and the bombing commenced.
Power is not fit to be part of the White House.
Translation, please.
May you know Peace through the Holy NAME of Jesus the Messiah.
