Obama's Second Term Transformation
Plans
The
2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860.This
statement is not hyperbole. If Barack Obama is re-elected the United States will
never be the same, nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as
the most dominant nation in the history of mankind.
The overwhelming
majority of Americans do not understand that Obama's first term was
dedicated to putting in place executive
power to enable him and the administration to fulfill the
campaign promise of "transforming America " in his second term regardless of
which political party controls Congress. That is why his re-election team is
virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party
office holders.
The
most significant accomplishment of Obama's first term was to make Congress
irrelevant. Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry Reid and
Nancy Pelosi, the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and, in a
second term, a potential dictatorial presidency.
During the first two
years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled
both Houses of Congress and the media was in an Obama worshipping stupor, a
myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which
transferred virtually unlimited power
to the executive branch.
The birth of
multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration. This
tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would have
sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of
pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently write.
For example, in the
2,700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2,500 references to the Secretary
of Health and Human Services. There are more than 700 instances when he or she
is instructed that they "shall" do something and more than 200 times when they
"may" take at their sole discretion some form of regulatory action. On 139
occasions, the law mentions that the "Secretary determines." In essence one
person, appointed by and reporting to the president, will be in charge of the
health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in
2014.
The same is true in
the 2,319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly
unlimited power on various agencies to control by fiat the nation's financial,
banking and investment sectors. The bill also creates new agencies, such as the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, not subject to any oversight by Congress.
This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with
the intent of granting unfettered power to the executive branch controlled by
Barack Obama and his radical associates.
Additionally, the Obama administration has, through
its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers, created laws out
of whole cloth. The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues
new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change
environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never
approved by Congress. The same is true of the Energy and Interior Departments
among many others.
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been
challenged by Congress. The left in America
knows this usurpation of power is nearly impossible to
reverse unless stopped in its early stages.
It is clearly the
mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a
nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take full advantage of the
useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the
Democrat Senate in the current Congress.
Additionally, Barack Obama knows after his
re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact
any legislation to roll back the power previously granted to the Executive
Branch or usurped by them. His veto will not be overridden as there will always
be at least 145 Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement
with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style
political tactics.
The
stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the
benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists.
The most significant
power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings as all spending must be
approved by them. However, once re-elected, Barack Obama, as confirmed by his
willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics,
would not only threaten government
shutdowns but would deliberately
withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of
intimidating and forcing a Republican controlled Congress to surrender to his
demands, thus neutering their ability to control the administration through
spending constraints.
Further, this administration has shown contempt for
the courts by ignoring various court orders, e.g. the Gulf of Mexico oil
drilling moratorium, as well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by
Congress. The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of
corruption as part of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in
American history. In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions
will become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election.
Who will be there to
enforce the rule of law, a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution? No one.
Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be unchallenged as they run roughshod
over the American people.
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with
the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on
re-taking the House and Senate. That goal, while worthy
and necessary, is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated
. The nation is not dealing with a person of character
and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism.
Judging by his actions, words and deeds during his first term, he does not
intend to work with Congress, either Republican or Democrat in his second term
but rather to force his radical agenda on the American people through the power
he has usurped or been granted.
The
governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the
hope that over the years only those people of high moral character and integrity
would assume the reins of power. However, knowing that was not always possible,
they dispersed power over three distinct and independent branches as a check on
each other.
What they could not
imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the
preeminent governmental branch, the Congress, to a chief executive devoid of any
character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce
the law when the chief executive ignores them.
Conservatives,
Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this
moment in time and their historical role in denying Barack Obama and his minions
their ultimate goal. All resources must be directed at that end-game and not
merely controlling Congress and the various committee chairmanships.

The Liberal Media's Attack on Mitt Romney
The Liberal
Media’s Attack on Mitt Romney
There is no such
thing as unbiased journalism anymore among the liberal media. And there hasn’t been for a long, long
time. This bias among the liberal left has never been more clear than in the last
couple of days as evidenced by their incessant attacks on Gov. Mitt
Romney. Gov. Romney criticized the
American Embassy in Cairo for their placating statement to the Muslims for
attacking the embassy. Gov. Romney also
criticized the President for such a statement of weakness. And instead of covering the murders of our
American citizens and the blatant attacks by these radical Muslim extremists,
the media has been fixated for the last 48 hours on Mitt Romney and his
statement. Even the Democratic pundits
are blasting the media for not covering the attacks on our American
embassies.
Appearing on Fox News's
America Live on Thursday, Daily Beast columnist and Democratic pundit Kirsten
Powers ripped the liberal media for expressing more outrage over Mitt Romney's
reaction to Tuesday's embassy attacks, than toward the attackers themselves: "I
mean, it is just absolutely utterly insane the way that they have elevated
this.” Acknowledging the Democratic
perspective, Powers explained: "...let's just stipulate that, for the sake
of argument, that Romney shouldn't have done it [criticized Obama] – I don't
agree with that – it still would not explain the obsession with Romney's
statement over these horrific events that are unfolding in front of us."
Later in the
discussion, host Megyn Kelly asked Powers: "You always have to look back
at, you know, when detecting media – you know, potential media bias, you look
back at what would the media have done if this had happened on George Bush's watch?"
Powers denounced the double standard:
Powers denounced the double standard:
Yeah. It would
have been completely radically different. Look, like I said, even if you agree
that Mitt Romney did something wrong, okay, look at that, but let's also look
at the Obama administration. It was just radio silence....why didn't they know
that these attacks were coming? Was Obama getting his intelligence briefings? I
mean these are the issues that should be being asked and would be being asked
if this had happened on George Bush's watch.
Now
there is a statement from an unbiased journalist. I can listen to someone like that even though
they are a Democrat.
To win this
election on November 6, 2012 Gov. Romney will not only have to defeat Barack
Hussein Obama, he will also have to defeat the liberal media who are in Obama’s
coat pocket.
