Posted on January 24, 2011 at 6:19pmObama must have thought that highly of himself not to even speak to his cabinet members, you would think he would have at least invited them in from time to time to kiss his ring, or bow before him. But this should be no surprise as we herd he did not speak with his General in charge of the Afganistan war for at least a year. The more one thinks about it the more scary it gets, who’s advising him on China and Russia?

Posted on January 24, 2011 at 6:10pmWhy would he need to talk to anyone in his administration, or anyone at all? All that is needed are agencies to regulate from cradle to grave. No need for that pesky congress or the people’s voice, too much work there, so why bother talking to anyone when we can be nudged or taxed where we need to go. If you cant legislate, regulate.

Posted on January 24, 2011 at 6:56pm@ hulagu,
Andy Stern has been named “head” of a newly created governmental agency to create new drugs for “the People”. So far, the Obama Admin. has taken over health insurance; banks and investment companies; student loans; auto manufacturers; the lame stream media; and is doing it’s best to control content over the internet. This has been done without any meaningful contact with the official Cabinet – probably because the cabinet has to be responsible to “the People”.
I hope that “the People” have wise-up by now, and won’t re-elect Obama in 2012.

Posted on January 24, 2011 at 6:20pmIt is getting to the point where I am not even shocked anymore by the unpresidential behavior of our current president.

The whole group is a bunch of bad players.

Posted on January 24, 2011 at 6:22pmI love the way that MSNBD trys to sugar-coat and spin this fact. I wish I could have been in the room when Obama sat down with his buddies to try to figure out what they didn’t get right the past two years. I think the conversation might go something like this, ” Well, Mr. President, perhaps it would be a good idea to have made contact at least once in the last two years with cabinet members”. And Obama replies, “I didn’t know that cabinetmakers had there own union?….. I thought they were just part of the Carpenter’s union. That’s great…I sure will contact them……. see if they can give me some money for my campaign in 2012…yeah that’s a great idea!”. Oh yeah!

Posted on January 24, 2011 at 8:07pmWhy? Becaus ethey mean nothing and are only figureheads as far as Obama is concerned. He has his shadow Govt in place and ready to take power. All he need is an incident. He already has Sustiene writing regulations to controll every thing. almost daily there are thousand of regulations coming from Sustines office to all departments of Gov’t. By 2012 Obama will have enough regulations in place to control every thing. How many know that all they have to do is post them in the federal Registry and if not challanged in 60 days they become the law of the land. Yes, I said law. They are just as enforcable as any law congress passes. Again I say shadoe Gov’t. Congress is irrelevent. Regulators now set law in this country. This is what happens when the balance of power was destroyed by the 17th Amendment. The states no longer have any say in Gov’t. All represnetatives are elected by the same people, House, senat, POTUS. All represent the same group. The voter. Not the way of a republic.

Posted on January 27, 2011 at 1:01pmThe State of the Union message may well have been an example of a classic communist brainwashing by applying a technique called ideological subversion. The first step is demoralization by confusing the facts to the point that one does not care to follow the truth. Second step is destabilization by actions counter to common sense. Third step is creating a crisis in which to apply certain policies and ideals. Fourth step is normalization, where people refuse to accept fact, logic or reason when it is presented to them–in other words, they accept the manifesto before them. Ideological subversion is designed to make people come to no sensible conclusions to defend themselves or their country.
Demoralization. The president said in his State of the Union address: “With their votes, they’ve determined that governing will now be a shared responsibility between parties… We will move forward together, or not at all…” In reality, the 2010 election was a total rejection of the socialist-trending policies of big government, not a mandate of sharing in these policies. Then he threatened moving forward with the president’s agenda–or not at all. He said the Soviet Union beat us, but that the space program resulted in this generation’s “Sputnik” moment. He said America had fallen behind China and India, and to sustain the American dream, we must “sacrifice, and struggle, and meet the demands of a new age.”
Destabilization. Throughout the message, the president talked of new expensive programs while at the same time saying the budget must be cut–these are opposite actions that belie common sense. Again, he said that Russia, Europe and China were moving ahead of our nation in infrastructure and that we must rebuild America in order to prosper. And he continued in class warfare by saying that the richest Americans should pay for bigger government. Crisis. He continued to use financial crisis to forward the concept of big government, more taxes (as couched with the word “invest”), more government intervention rather than relying on “the whims of the stock market.”
Normalization. He spoke proudly of welcoming homosexuals to the military, integrating illegal aliens into American society, and big government programs as forged by “principled compromise.” These are all smooth words, but they are promoting a rebellion against the laws of God. They are bringing the masses into a mental state where good is evil and evil is good. Isaiah 30 begins with “Woe to the rebellious children, says the LORD…” And verse 10 says, “Which say to the seers, see not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits.” We must repent from our trust in oppression and perverseness and hold these leaders and one another accountable lest we perish.
