Welcome To Obamacare Booby
- From: AmericanBorn
-
Description:
In 1972 my mother discovered a lump under her arm. It was breast cancer. She had a radical mastectomy removing the entire breast. A year later it showed up again - and again she found it herself in the other breast - undetected by her every 3 month exams at the doctors office. Another radical mastectomy and follow-up treatments. She lived another 30+ years from these self-tests. They didn't cost anything - and saved - or at least added 30 years to her life and mine.
Mr. Obama's doctors have started the trashing of our great medical system with the most rediculous of statements telling women not to self-examine due to excess concern and false positives. That the expense of testing these false positives is unnecessary. A best friend, recently obtaining her MBA through GSU, found a lump, a very small knot, in one breast - on her own. A lumpectomy later, and some follow-up treatments and she is cancer free for years now. How smart would it have been for her to have waited to be 50 to check for a lump? She's approaching 50 this year - she'd be dead. So for Obamacare, that potential for a false positive wasn't worth much.
So men, black men in particular, I guess we can put off those pesky prostate checks. So much for Dr. Bigfinger asking you to bend over the end of the table. Just wait until you are 80 - if you make it that far - and you will probably have prostate cancer - but under Obamacare you won't need to worry because at anything past 65 you aren't worth putting any dollars into to make life better or extend your expectancy. No knees, no hips, certainly no prostate cancer treatments or penile implants.
We are in the midst of a revolution. To quote someone who was talking about another group, not our President and the leftists of this country, "They have been at war with us and we didn't recognize it as such." Obama and his gaggle of preposterous infidels are destroying everything we know as the Great United States of America. They will only get to push a little bit more and their hopes will be recognized. I firmly and wholly believe it is the intention of this group of gustapo intend to push the folks on the right as far as they need to in order to get a reaction where blood is actually spilled, not just words. I believe they will continue to berate, tax and take away freedoms until they finally get a physical push back - their ultimate opportunity for action.
When it finally happens - Marshall law - or Obama's equivalent - and then the real problems will ensue. The question for you to ask yourself - do you have enough food for your family stored to last for at least 2 months? Do you have enough firearms hidden that are not registered to fend off your neighbors that do not have enough food for 2 months? They will be asking - knocking on your door willling to do what they need to in order to feed their own. Obama intends to put you against your neighbor and destroy us from within. And the media is falling in place to encourage him. Sorros owns them and him - and the Chinese probably own him.
It all starts with taking away what we know as freedoms. Are you willing to let that slip through your fingers? Even you d Blackenstine?

Guantanamo Bay Prisoners!
- From: DrBlackinstien
-
Description:
Last week, the administration announced that it will try five Guantanamo prisoners -- including Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the self-declared mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks -- in federal court in New York. The fate of dozens of other detainees remains in limbo.
President Obama, ambitious fella that he is, knows when certain things are gonna take a bit longer than planned.
Such is the case of Guantanamo Bay, which the president admitted will not be closed by January. From The Washington Post:
"President Obama directly acknowledged for the first time Wednesday that the prison facility at Guantanamo Bay will not close by the January deadline he set, but he said he hoped to still achieve that goal sometime next year. Obama refused, however, to set a new deadline.
Maybe it's because our Government don't know where to put these Murdering Terrorist, who murder in the name of a false god!
In an interview in the Chinese capital with Major Garrett of Fox News , Obama claimed he was "not disappointed" that the Guantanamo deadline had slipped, saying he "knew this was going to be hard."
"People, I think understandably, are fearful after a lot of years where they were told that Guantanamo was critical to keep terrorists out," Obama said. Closing the facility, he added, is "also just technically hard."
Obama came to office pledging to shut a detainee facility that had become a symbol for prisoner abuse at the hands of American officials. He signed orders to shut the military prison by January 2010, but White House officials quickly encountered resistance from members of Congress opposed to moving prisoners to U.S. soil and from other countries they had hoped would accept detainees."
This one I have to disagree with President Obama! Forget the politics and social relationships with other countries.
These are evil people who will not freely give out information that can save lives in this country. So how do we get the information out of them?
For all those who oppose torture to extract life saving information, your dead wrong! You don't be nice with EVIL!

Looking For Fashion Watches
- From: juanxincai
-
Description:Shopping for items has always been popular. In the past, people bought things go through a life cycle. Things were totally worn out. Some goods wear out much quicker than others. For instance, a pair of football boots can only last for so many games while a television or a watch is most likely to last for a long time. People like shopping. Many people genuinely enjoy shopping. They view it as a pleasant day out. Whether people go shopping alone, or enjoy shopping with the family at their local shopping centre. No matter how, shopping is probably one of the favorite pastimes in people's daily lives. People can really enjoy a day out at saturday afternoon.
One brand that has been very popular in recent years is that of Emporio Armani. Emporio Armani is a sub-branch of Armani, arguably the biggest fashion brand in the world. Emporio Armani offer more specific products and one of these products is REplica Breitling Watches. Watches are extremely popular in the UK and have been for a very long time. This is because people both need a watch and also want a nice watch as it is a great fashion accessory helping people look the part. As mentioned before, REplica Cartier Watches are likely to last longer than the average product. That said,REplica Omega Watches are fast becoming a great fashion item and more and more people are going to the shops to purchase one.
Watches really are a great fashion item. This is because watch manufacturers such as Emporio Armani understand their customers' wants and needs and know that there is a big market for fashion REplica Panerai Watches and designer watches in the UK. The number of people that demand these fashion watches has grown enormously over the past few years as people all want to have their own unique personality.
Buying a watch can be a long process. This is because there are so many watches to choose from that people can spend a whole lot of time making their decision. One brand that is always popular is Emporio Armani. This is because Emporio Armani are one of the best fashion brands in the UK and they therefore offer customers some of the best fashion REplica Patek Philippe Watches available on the market.
Customers have a large selection of watches to compare. It's quite easy to make the right watch purchase decision. In other words, you just need to focus on Emporio Armani watch range. You can certainly find the best fashion REplica Tag Heuer Watches. Emporio Armani watches have been very popular for many years. Emporio Armani is a brand for style sense and fashion which it shows in his range of fashion REplica Rolex Watches. Emporio Armani even offer customers a unique opportunity to win a day. There's a chance that it will be popular for the many years to come. - Blog post

911 Trial!!!
- From: DrBlackinstien
-
Description:
A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows that some people think that feds should be able to try 9/11 conspirators in New York while others think military tribunals.
When the question was posed; "Would you rather have suspects accused of involvement in the September 11 terrorist attacks put on trial in the federal court system in the United States, or in a military tribunal set up for that purpose"?
Washington Post-ABC News poll conducted Nov. 12-15 among a random national sample of 1,001 adults. The results have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points.
In a new Washington Post-ABC News poll, 47 percent say suspects accused of involvement in the 9/11 terrorist attacks should be tried in the U.S. federal court system, while as many, 48 percent, say they prefer military tribunals set up for that purpose.
Also typical is the evident partisan split on the matter: 61 percent of Democrats would rather see trials in civilian courts, with 58 percent of Republicans preferring the military route. Independents tilt 53-42 toward military tribunals.
In previously released data, 53 percent of Americans approve of the job President Obama is doing handling the threat of terrorism; 41 percent disapprove. Approval of the way he is dealing with the issue peaks among Democrats at 77 percent, slides to 46 percent among independents and 33 percent among Republicans."
This should be a no brainer! it was a Federal crime, so it should be in Federal Court!
The Verdict should not be any question. GUILTY!!!!!!

Truth or Fiction? Joe Wilson K
- From: thedutchman
-
Description:It seems to be coming more clear as each day passes, that the much maligned Joe Wilson, from South Carolina, was more correct that anyone could possibly know.As the Obama Administration continues to make statements of "Fact" about Health Care Reform and disclose "Jobs Saved or Created Figures":Jobs "created" in Congressional Districts that don't even exist. Jobs saved when only pay increases were given. Where's the Truth?"No medical care plan coverage for immigrants - no we'll just give them a "pass" toward citizenship. No problem! Remember, the end justifies the means.President HAS SAID:"Will not accept Health Care Reform that adds one dime to the the deficit!" All Bills INCREASE the Deficit! Increases the size of government, Increases cost of Medical Care!"If we don't sign Stimulus Bill right now "unemployment will increase above 10%" - Congress Rushed Stimulus and now UNEMPLOYMENT RISES TO 10.2% REALLY 17% Is someone blindly throwing darts to determine what happens next?"Will not raise taxes on incomes less than $250,000 - all incomes will suffer because of tax increases on Medical Devices, and other government mandated programs being forced on everyone."Cap and Trade legislation will Increase the cost of energy, of all kinds, significantly". - This may have been his only "Truthful Statement"Has promised a change to "Transparency in Government" - Just the opposite has occurred at unprecedented levels.Has said we Need to win the war in Afghanistan - "this is America's War" - Now, he will not follow the request of his appointed Generals.It appears, so far, the elected officials in power today are truly intent on destroying the private enterprise form of business, that has produced the wealth of the world for decades, in favor of a government dominated structure which employs as many people as possible to supervise the rest of the citizens. The government workers would be Union Represented, as a pay back to the SEIU and other unions supporting the Democrats. Think of the potential power this represents in future elections.The Big Multi-National Corporations are caving to the administration and regulators of their industries, or face the onslaught of threats by Congress, tax investigations, organizer marches, fear of added regulations, loss of future government contracts or down right "take over", if executives Refuse to Go Along.Where do we find any TRUTH OR TRUST in the current administration and the Progressive Democrats that make up the majority in the Senate and House of Representatives. Each majority in both Houses seems intent to "stuff" Progressive legislation in the form so-called Health Care Reform and Cap and Trade down the "We Don't Want It Throats" of the the voters.All of this turmoil just to increase the size of the Federal Government and provide more Union Jobs for political purposes. All of this to seize more individual liberty from the American Citizen. All of this so that the Federal Government will exercise more control over every single individual from the cradle to the grave. When the government can regulate your education, your job, your health care, your medication, your method of transportation, your retirement, what you watch on Television, what you listen to on the radio, where you can drill for oil and gas, dig a hole or cut a tree - if the government has taken those decision from us, what's next?Why has the small business owner of America been neglected in favor of large Wall Street Corporation and the "Fat Cats" that have cut special deals with the Executive Branch of the Obama Administration. Big Salaries, Big Bonuses, Big Takeovers and Big Corruption all have been the order of the day. Small business has been "hug-out-to-dry" and, all but ignored, as the administration has pronounced that the Stimulus would be the infusion needed to create the needed jobs. Where did the Stimulus go? Most of what was spent seems to have gone to state and municipal governments to shore up balance sheets and take care of short term projects. A very small amount, if any, was allocated to long term capital expenditures for creating new or improved "widgets" that build jobs and creates future wealth for ten of thousands.What you we done?If the above were not bad enough think about this:I am becoming more concerned with the USA continuing to allow more immigration from potential radical groups. Think what could happen if groups of radical Muslims, and others that have not been educated and truly believe in the Founding Fathers view of America joined forces, as voting citizens. Eventually, a group such as this could affect federal elections for Congress and then the President. I would suggest that anyone reading this, look up (Google) and read about Shariah Law. Their goal is to take over the world, no holds barred!Why do we have Labor Unions representing employees of the federal government? This does not make sense to me.Why do we have Term Limits on the President and not on members of Congress? Points out the need for Term Limits on CongressWhy do we have a Tax System that basically applies only to 50% of the population?Did you know 10% of the population pays 70% of the taxes? Illustrates need for larger base and a fair system - Thus the Fair TaxWhy do we not use the Rights of the States to call for Constitutional Conventions to overturn legislation passed by Congress that may be Unconstitutional.Why do we allow our State Rights to be stripped from us and our tax dollars to be used as pork and waste to feed the reelection of members of Congress in other States like CA, PA, MD, MA, NY, NJ, CT, MI, IL, WA and OR.Why do we allow Congress to pass legislation that mandates how we educate our children, how we pray, how we celebrate holidays, how we eat, how we save for health care, what kind of health care we purchase, and possibly which physician we select to keep us healthy. They've gone wild in Washington.We Must Do Better - We Must Begin to Change the Game Now!With our cell phones, it cost only pennies, if anything, to make calls to members of Congress. If you need a number let me know and I'll get it for you. Most members of Congress have an email address on their web site. I suggest we all make it a habit to change from a passive attitude, toward our elected officials. It is time to start letting them hear from us. That means every elected member of Congress, not just those in your state. I promise you, you'll feel better after you make your opinion known.Do Something!As always, it's my humble opinion

Jihad Target By Dick Turbin
- From: AmericanBorn
-
Description:
With all the problems of unemployment - maybe as high as 25% in some areas of Illinois - Senator Dick Turbin (durbin) has decided to make Illinois the next best target for jihad attacks - and offered up a target for the jihadists, the Sears Tower. Because he, Dick, was able to finagle hundreds of millions of dollars to build the high security prison in Illinois, and even though it has never been close to full currently housing somewhat close to 1/4 of low security risk prisoners today, he wants to "employ his people" regardless of the risk to the rest of the world.
Gitmo is where it is for a lot of reasons - one good one is there is no way to threaten civilian populations any where near the prison. If jihadists want to try to blow up a car bomb outside the prison - go for it if they can make it across the mine field leading up to the place. If someone wants to shoot a rocket at it - well they will be in the open ocean to do so - and in plain sight. But none of this means a thing to Dick. He could care less - he want credit for bringing jobs to Illinois - no, that isn't it either.
What Dick Turbin wants is favor of the Osama, I mean the Obama administration (or both I guess). This is every bit as bad as bringing the mastermind of 911 to New York City for prosecution. When will Obama get over trying to put down the Bush administration. We went 7 years without any attacks on the US by muslim extremists under Bush - we didn't make it a year under Obama and 13 people are dead on one of our own military bases. Bringing the muslim extremists to New York to be tried in civilian courts will open up the world to their propaganda on a daily basis. How did the "mastermind" know, when he was captured, that he would be tried in New York City, what he said when he was arrested.
How bad is it going to get with the Obama administration? He just bowed to the Emperor of Japan, he got his liberal ass chewed by the Chinese, he is in a September 10 mindset regarding islamic jihadists and the radical muslim community. He wants us to use the Federal Courts to try the 911 suspects, and just think, there is no lock on which judge may judge this case.

Remember Joe Wilson? The Republican that became famous for lying?

Come to find out while arguing on the floor for and against legislation many of the speeches were word for word alike. Come to find out they were written by lobbyist. I pick Joe Wilson because of his high profile but the blame goes to both parties.

Lindsey Graham Slams Birthers
- From: KevinA
-
Description:
Sen. Lindsey Graham, (R-S.C.) offered unusually blunt assessments of the fringe elements of his party and conservative media on Thursday, calling the popular and bombastic Fox News host Glenn Beck a "cynic" whose show was antithetical to American values.
"Only in America can you make that much money crying," Graham said of Beck. "Glenn Beck is not aligned with any party. He is aligned with cynicism and there has always been a market for cynics. But we became a great nation not because we are a nation of cynics. We became a great nation because we are a nation of believers."
Appearing before a crowd of Washington's elite power players and opinion-makers, Graham spoke largely without filter, offering acidic takes on subject well beyond Beck. The Senator called the birther community that questions the president's U.S. citizenship "crazy" and implored them to "knock this crap off" so the country could get on to more important matters.
"I'm here to tell you that those who think the president was not born in Hawaii are crazy," said Graham, who went on to dispel another myth: that Obama is a closet Muslim.
Say it ain't so Lindsey. But what about your party. A third of the south believes that stuff.

Congress Becomes Lobby
- From: KevinA

Description:
'Round and 'Round They Go: Lawmakers Leave Congress for Lobbying Posts
The physical distance between Capitol Hill and K Street is only about a mile. But armed with the knowledge that walking that path can be lucrative, many lawmakers decide to make the trek -- and stay put. Some even do so regardless of whether their congressional terms are over.
Sen. Mel Martinez (R-Fla.) is the most recent example. Within two weeks of announcing his early resignation from Congress last month, Martinez had landed a job at lobbying firm DLA Piper. Under federal law, Martinez will have to wait two years before he can lobby his former colleagues, but in the meantime, he'll be advising the firm's clients based on the inside knowledge he gained after five years on the job.
At least 44 lawmakers have left their congressional seats mid-term since 1990, and at least 16 of them went on to work at lobbying firms or at companies that hired lobbyists, the Center for Responsive Politics has found. Of these 16, three are former senators and 10 are Republicans. Here, we take a closer look at a few of these individuals, examining which industries and clients they're now representing. We also explore the campaign cash they received while in Congress from the industries and organizations they now represent.Both parties are in the control of big business.

Oil Lease Auction
- From: KevinA
-
Description:
Annual offshore drilling auction to be held March 17
The Minerals Management Service announced plans on Friday to hold its annual auction of drilling tracts in the central Gulf of Mexico on March 17.
The sale will offer 6,800 blocks covering more than 35.9 million acres off the coasts of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. Development of the tracts - which are located in water depths of between 10 feet and more than 11,200 feet - could produce as much as 1.3 billion barrels of oil and 5.4 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, according to the MMS.
Just the latest offering in Federal leases to drill on. The problem is the oil companies will not drill unless prices are high. The normal republican talking point is drill here drill now. Then they allow the oil companies to not drill even though they could. They are more concerned with controlling the market - and your pocket book.

Lottery Gone Bad

Description:
Lottery staff gets bigger bonuses
More than 200,000 teachers and state employees are being furloughed and seeing smaller paychecks this year, but the Georgia Lottery did well enough to hand out $2.75 million in bonuses to its staffers.
That’s up more than 8 percent from fiscal 2008, according to figures the Lottery Corp. provided to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Lottery CEO Margaret DeFrancisco received a $204,034 bonus, up from $150,000 in 2008. That’s on top of a $286,000 salary, which was unchanged from 2008.
Lottery officials say the bonuses, which they call incentive payments, are commonly used in private industry to help retain top staffers.
The idea of the lottery was to buy books for schools and provide scholarships to students. The big business mentality of a red state. Give me a break. Meanwhile GA leads the nation in failed banks. Yep the government has to buy them out.

Our country deserves better
- From: dlindberg102
-
Description:
Am I so out of step with the majority in this country? Why is it that every time I turn on the TV or pick up a newspaper I find myself getting angry? This week I couldn’t believe that our illustrious Attorney General, Eric Holder was there on Television telling us that they were bringing our sworn enemies to New York for a civilian trial. Where in our Constitution does it say we have to give our legal rights to our enemies? In my mind I am asking who benefits from this stupidity, the families of the victims, the fire fighters who lost their brethren, the police and port authority who still hear the screams of the dying in their sleep. How about us, the general public who witnessed planes full of everyday people crashing into the buildings, or the bodies of innocent office workers hurling themselves out of the twin towers to keep from burning alive. None of the above is the answer in case you wondered. There is one answer that comes to mind but I can’t even fathom anyone could be so callous, It’s been stated that Attorney General Holders former law firm, the one that he will surely return to when this country finally regains its senses, represents several terrorists already. Could this be a motive? Are they that arrogant that they would even consider this?
Are we so intimidated by European opinion that it is really necessary that we close Gitmo? We have been so smothered in political correctness that it is affecting our ability to survive as a world power. Who has earned the right to judge our system of government? What part of Europe didn’t we save from tyranny? What would China be today if we hadn’t stopped the Japanese in WWII? How have our enemies treated our captives, from WWII through Korea, Viet Nam, or in The Middle East? The people held in Guantanamo have it better than they did in their own countries. I call them people only because I am so influenced by political correctness that I find it hard to call them what they really are. In our history we have always been the savior of the world not the bad guy. This administration seems to be of the belief that we have a lot to apologize for. Even though I didn’t vote for him I actually thought that after Obama was sworn in, he would see the world for what it really is and temper his agenda for the good of America. I was wrong, his agenda seems to be to destroy the America we grew up in and remake it into a socialist society. To accomplish this goal he has to break the spirit of our people and render them impotent to his will. He has surrounded himself with a group of people who actually despise our country. Socialist, Communist and some of the loudest voices against American freedom are entrenched in his cabinet and his army of Czars.
In history we learn what is in our future, if you bother to read the history of Germany and the Soviet Union you will see where we are headed. When the President goes to Copenhagen and signs the treaty on Global Warming, we as a sovereign nation will cease to exist. When we give others the right to make and enforce our laws we will have fought all wars, and left all our battle fields littered with our dead for nothing. America will no longer be the shinning city on the hill that so many have held in reverence. The United States that has been the benefactor to the world deserves better. Shout and shout loud, make these egotistical, narcissists hear your demands. Let them know that this is our land, and we’ll defend it with all we have. - Blog post

Obama blog, 7 months ago.
- From: Gus
-
Description:
My brother in St.Louis posted this there today:
*** I posted the following blog 7 months ago, and it remains appropriate today, excluding the location of the speech:
''Made a serious effort this morning to watch and listen carefully to Obama's speech in Strassbourg, France. Wanted to give the guy a break, even though I was not one of his supporters, and not at all interested in 'charismatic' talent. But it was very disappointing. The honeymoon with world-wide admirers will likely end after the normal lag between here and there, leaving everyone in an unknown territory. I now wonder even more than before if he is extremely naive, very stupid, or purposely leading this country into a radically idealogical hole. I hope I am wrong and that he fully succeeds in realistically guiding us out of our difficulties. But my doubts are growing stronger with each passing day.''
We have heard enough times now that he 'inherited' all these problems from the Bush administration. Only partially true, the war in Iraq being the only major issue. The financial bubble began and reached it's peak during the Clinton administration, with Democrats such as Frank and Dodd leading the way, notwithstanding the Republicans part of that phony 'great' economy then and during the following eight years. But consider the degree of damage to the economy and to personal freedoms, and then, if you can be honest with yourself, please explain who is hurting us most.
Partisan politics is no longer the answer. Removal of the arrogant elite from office is a beginning to the best answer. And to the one that said ''There is no intelligent life beyond the beltway'', I have a message. This country has survived more than 200 years inspite of Washington, D.C., not because of it.***
There are few words left to describe what Obama and his administration have done and are trying to do. His constant appearances are themselves a form of indoctrination. I'm flabbergasted that his popularity ratings are still so high. What a nightmare ! Stephen King, are you getting all this ?

Health Reform and the U.S. Con
- From: ThomasPaine

Description:
Our Imperial Congress now pretends to the authority to force Americans to buy Health Insurance, whether they want it or not.
The House of Representatives passed the measure - the full 1,990 page bill the Speaker sponsored (one can't say "presented", as no one was afforded the time to examine the bill in detail) - in a rare Saturday night session this past weekend, with 220 Ayes - 3 key swing votes, including one Republican, being the deciding factor.
To their credit, some in the media have begun to ask the central question of this totalitarian scheme: how does Congress pretend to such unconstitutional authority?
CNS News reports the following exchange with Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson:
CNSNews.com: “Specifically, where in the Constitution does Congress get its authority to mandate that individuals purchase health, health insurance?”
Sen. Ben Nelson (D.-Neb.): “Well, you know, I don’t know that I’m a constitutional scholar. So, I, I’m not going to be able to answer that question.”
Nelson then deftly moved to the next reporter's question. This can be termed evasion at best, arrogance perhaps not worst. Perhaps more experienced politicians are more thoughtful on the topic, as CNS offers the following on a conversation with Utah's Senator Orrin Hatch:
In a recent interview with CNSNews.com, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R.-Utah), a longtime member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said that it was “not constitutionally sound” for Congress to mandate that individuals buy health insurance.
“But here would be the first time where our [federal] government would demand that people buy something that they may or may not want,” said Hatch. “And, you know, if that’s the case, then we didn’t need a 'Cash for Clunkers,' all we had to do is have the federal government say you all got to buy new cars, no matter how tough it is on you. You know, they could require you to buy anything. And that isn’t America. That’s not freedom. That’s not constitutionally sound.”
Hatch said that if we let the federal government begin forcing us to buy things we may not want to buy without having a clear constitutional justification for doing so “we’ve lost our freedoms, and that means the federal government can do anything it wants to do to us.”And so it seems. One can only wonder what could be next. A commenter on the CNS story had this to offer, quoting from a 1935 case at the high court:
“The catalogue of means and actions which might be imposed upon an employer in any business, tending to the satisfaction and comfort of his employees, seems endless. Provision for free medical assistance, nursing, clothing, food, housing, and education of children, and a hundred other matters might with equal propriety be proposed as tending to relieve the employee of mental strain and worry. Can it fairly be said that the power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce extends to the prescription of any or all of these things? Is it not apparent that they are really and essentially related solely to the social welfare of the worker and therefore remote from any regulation of commerce as such? We think the answer is plain. These matters obviously lie outside the orbit of congressional power.” (Railroad Retirement Board v. Alton Railroad Co, 295 U.S. 330 (1935))
One might expect the President, a former constitutional lawyer by his own account, to solicit the high court's opinion on a matter of such Constitutional weight.
Don't hold your breath.

Obama Ignores Terror Threat at
- From: Zcat
-
Description:
November 09, 2009
Obama Ignores Terror Threat at His Own PerilCommunism is gone but Islamic radicalism and jihadism are with us. President Obama will have to find an effective way to deal with this new threat or the American people will find someone else who can.
In the wake of “11/5,” the attack at Fort Hood, Barack Obama faces a tough choice--like it or not.
The 44th president must choose to confront an unpleasant reality, head on--or else it will run him over. The issue is the threat of terrorist violence, here on the homefront.
Terrorism, and the debate over how to respond to terrorism, was the defining issue of the 43rd presidency. And now it’s apparent that Obama, too, will spend the bulk of his presidency confronting terror, from Afghanistan to new battlezones, such as central Texas.
Obama and fellow Democrats would rather, of course, talk about health care. But over the next few years, the Fort Hood shooting is going to be a bigger story, since it is connected to our relations, good and bad, with the entire Islamic world, including nuclear Pakistan and almost- nuclear Iran.
For his sake, and for ours, Obama needs to understand that sometimes even presidents don’t get to decide the agenda -- the agenda is decided for him. In such a situation, the question is whether or not the president can adapt to the new era and its new challenges.
So this president needs to launch an aggressive investigation, digging into every aspect of Thursday’s shooting rampage that left 13 dead and dozens injured. How did it happen? Who bears responsibility? And, most importantly, what must we change now? Otherwise, if Obama simply talks about health care and “cap-and-trade” and “don’t ask, don’t tell” and all the other staples of his 2008 agenda, he will be left in the dust by the cyclonic events of 2009 and beyond. And in the wake of the 11/5 shootings, his presidency could be blown away by a whirlwind of damaging leaks, embarrasing reports, and well-justified fears.
Obama will always have his base of support, of course, especially in the media. Taking their cues, as ever, from the siren song of secular liberalism, the Mainstream Media would rather talk about health care, with an occasional digression into gay marriage. As documented by the Media Research Center, MSM reporters are mostly loathe to draw anything outher than politically correct conclusions about the religious and ethnic dimensions of the Fort Hood mass murder.
Thus the MSM is likely to be left in the dust by more fearless, more energetic media. Columnists Dick Morris and Eileen McGann were blunt in their e-mail headline: “Ft. Hood Attack Was Terrorism.” And also on Sunday morning, the top dozen headlines at WorldNetDaily, a popular conservative Web site, dealt forcefully with Fort Hood. So while the MSM is bemoaning “stress,” “PTSD,” and “over-extension,” WorldNetDaily is offering an entirely different narrative, featuring headlines such as “Muslims: ‘America’s chickens have come to roost,’ U.S. Islamic street preachers declare Fort Hood victims got just desserts,” and “Shooter advised Obama Transition: Fort Hood triggerman aided team on Homeland Security task force,” and “Military jihadists fill ‘every branch’: Ultimate 5th column penetration, warns best-selling ‘Muslim Mafia’ [author]” One additional piece was penned by Joseph Farah, the Arab-American editor of WND, whose headline blared, “PC sickness killed our soldiers.” How will the commander-in-chief react to that?
Having bungled his first public remarks after the news of the killings at Fort Hood, Obama is already on the defensive. So, most likely, he and his staff will seek to change the subject as quickly as possible.
But if they try doing that, getting back to, say, “the public option,” they will fail. Because the issue isn’t going away. As Georgetown University terrorism expert Bruce Hoffman said over the weekend:
“I’m not saying it’s part of an organized campaign or a systematic strategy, but we're seeing a sea change when we have once a month a plot that is related somehow to Afghanistan, Iraq or what these people see is a war against Islam. It's too easy to dismiss them as unstable individuals when they have expressed strong religious beliefs with politics. That's the essence of the radicalization we're facing.”
In other words, Fort Hood was not a random event; it was part of a pattern.
The irony is that Obama could dominate the counter-terrorism issue, if he wanted to. The president has the governing tools that might really make a difference; he oversees the entire Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Justice Department -- including the FBI. If he uses his vast authority to force a thorough, let-the-chips-fall-where-they-may investigation, demanding full accountability while chasing down every last lead and angle, the American people, most of them, will feel reassured.
But if he allows the bureaucracy to cover its own collective posterior, if he fails to force meaningful reform on the system, if he accepts a “lone gunman” thesis, then America will be convulsed with mistrust, even paranoia. Unfortunately, Obama, whose resume includes no executive experience before becoming president, seems singularly ill-equipped to ride herd over a sprawling bureaucracy.
And if the bureaucrats mislead Obama, and if he passes along their misleading conclusions to the American people -- it will be Obama who gets blamed. The buck stops with him. He won’t be able to hide behind his TelePrompter.
Meanwhile, others, more determined to find answers, and less worried about upsetting the apple cart, will be pressing ahead. One such person who is already leading the charge is Sen. Joe Lieberman, chairman of the Homeland Security Committee. He has already announced that he will be launching his own investigation. Lieberman, a former Democrat and now an independent, endorsed John McCain in the election last year, in large measure because he mistrusted Obama on national security. And for their part, the Obamans probably dislike Lieberman more than any politician this side of Joe Wilson. So expect a rancorous inquiry.
But to the American people, the issue isn’t Lieberman, or any politico. The huge looming issue is security for America. We went through a period similar to this in the 1940s, when Americans started to fear that the establishment, led by a Democratic president, was not being sufficiently vigilant about the threat posed by communism. Those concerns, rational and irrational, soon cost the Democrats the presidency; indeed, they vexed American politics for the next four decades.
Now communism is gone, but Islamic radicalism and jihadism are with us. Obama will have to find an effective way to deal with this new threat or the American people will find someone else who can.
