Does anyone know anything about the new movie, "2016"? http://2016themovie.com from the website: 2016 Obama's America takes audiences on a gripping visual journey into the heart of the world’s most powerful office to reveal the struggle of whether one man's past will redefine America over the next four years. The film examines the question, "If Obama wins a second term, where will we be in 2016?" Across the globe and in America, people in 2008 hungered for a leader who would unite and lift us from economic turmoil and war. True to America’s ideals, they invested their hope in a new kind of president, Barack Obama. What they didn't know is that Obama is a man with a past, and in powerful ways that past defines him--who he is, how he thinks, and where he intends to take America and the world. Love him or hate him, you don’t know him. About the film maker: Dinesh D’Souza Author, Speaker, President of King’s College in NY City Born in Mumbai, India, Dinesh D’Souza came to the U.S. as an exchange student and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Dartmouth College in 1983. From there he went on to work in the Reagan White House as a policy analyst. In 2010 he released The Roots of Obama’s Rage which is the basis for the film 2016  bama’s America. It has been described as the most influential political book of 2010 and has proven to be yet another best seller. In the same year, he was named the president of The King’s College, in New York City. Dinesh brought a distinguished 25-year career as a writer, scholar, and public intellectual to The King’s College. Prior to this appointment, Dinesh also served as John M. Olin Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, and the Robert and Karen Rishwain Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. Called one of the “top young public-policy makers in the country” by Investor’s Business Daily, Dinesh quickly became known as a major influencer on public policy through his writings. His first book, Illiberal Education (1991), publicized the phenomenon of political correctness in America’s colleges and universities and became a New York Times bestseller for 15 weeks. It has been listed as one of the most influential books of the 1990s. | ||

Aesquire has pondered the possibility of a Reichstag fire being set by the 0 administration sometime between now and the election. In my internet travels I've also seen the term "October surprise" used in much the same context, I think. 0's chances of getting reelected don't look very good from where I sit. He certainly can't campaign on his record, hence all the incessant smearing going on by the left towards the right: It burns up news cycles, all this chaff, keeping the American public's attention focused on stuff other than the economy. Back to a possible Reichstag fire/October surprise: Syria?? A good war can be good business for the White House... | ||

If he looses the election, and refuses to vacate - you can bet there will be some capital carnage. I also see if he looses the same kind of thing from the Rodney King verdict (yep - we havent grown one wit as a nation since then) or he 'wins' because he paid off the firm that is counting the votes.... and then he should stay away from drop top Lincolns and Theaters in any case - stupidity is on the horizon. PS NOvember 7 is actually the conversion date of the Communist Revolution; adjusting for the Calender; the symbolism is too much sometimes. | ||

City now you know why the Secret Service Agents had a Prostitute issue. in South America! That move has Axlerod written all over it. Now obama has his hand picked SS agents that will back him on 1-20-2013. The regular agents would have him packed and on a plane to Chi town on the 20th. Time will tell. I have worked standby service for 3 presidents the SS doesnt play around they don't have time. | ||

C'mon, get serious. Obama is not evil incarnate, just incompetent and supremely unqualified for the job. He will leave the White House with the movers next January if he loses in November. Hell, I'll drive the van. | ||

C'mon, get serious. I am. Obama is not evil incarnate... Strongly disagree. ...just incompetent... Partially agree, depending on what his actual goals as president are. ...and supremely unqualified for the job. Again, depends on what his true mission is. Is he qualified to be President, to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic? Not a chance. Is he qualified to fundamentally transform the United States of America? Well, his record, such as it is, speaks for itself: Yes. He will leave the White House with the movers next January if he loses in November. We'll see. Fingers crossed. Hell, I'll drive the van. I'll buy the gas. | ||

We'll all buy the gas. I'm not worried about Barack not leaving if he loses. We have a strong tradition of peaceful transfer of power.

I just purchased the recent copy of Newsweak with the "Hit the Road, Barack" cover. Great and true story. I encourage all Badwebers to buycott Newsweek to send a message to reporters and journalists that it is OK to hold alternative viewpoints. There is a conscious and subconscious Leftist bias in the media today and that is why journalists and reporters are overwhelmingly Leftists. They know if they do no hold that ideological viewpoint, then they will lose their job. Ask Juan Williams. Please buy this week's Newsweek magazine. Interesting anecdote. A young, black woman was working the checkout aisle where I purchased Newsweek. I politely told her that I had to go to several stores to find this issue, and that I hadn't purchased Newsweek in twenty years. Once she saw the cover, she ceased to be friendly and appeared to be silently fuming. (Message edited by reindog on August 22, 2012) | ||

Mike, great link, thanks for sharing. Court, they've got nothing to stand on. 0's presidency has been, to be kind, an epic (and deliberate?) failure. It'll get a lot uglier from here on out; 0 and his puppeteers have been plotting for a long time. They know full well it may take decades to come this close again.

^^^ I have as yet to have a policy debate with a single individual that has read the bill; and these include administrators, lawyers, and exchange owners that are IN CHARGE of implementing it. The mantra seems to be - we will get our orders and guidelines from CMS/HHS - we will not read it ourselves ; because it could CHANGE in implementation from the FED ..... Anybody that 'likes' this bill - hasn't read it, was paid off by it, or doesn't understand history/insurance/economics ; or the trifecta - all three. If he get ousted out of office, and it is repealed and revoked - his presidency will have meant nothing ; except the escalation of debt. | ||

"Economist Mike Kimel notes that the five former Democratic Presidents (Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Lyndon B. Johnson, John F. Kennedy, and Harry S. Truman) all reduced public debt as a share of GDP, while the last four Republican Presidents (George W. Bush, George H. W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, and Gerald Ford) all oversaw an increase in the country's indebtedness." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_United _States_public_debt "In America, the most familiar Hegelian Dialectic is the Republican and Democratic parties. On the right we have the Corporatist, Fascist, Republicans that are pro debt, pro war and pro corporation. On the left, we have the Socialist, Communist, Democrats that are pro tax, pro social issues and pro labor. Both of these two fight back and forth every year in a contrived scripted drama known as Washington politics. The synthesis, of these two seemingly opposite ideas, is this middle of the road “lesser of two evils” mess we have now. When you understand that the Elite are collectivists seeking to destroy individuality and freedom, the picture is easier to see. The proper scale is not the false left/right paradigm, it is total government power or total freedom. If you are a freedom lover, it does not matter if your government is Fascist or Socialist, you lose. The synthesis of these two is that we get more power and money taken from us to fund every special interest in the world. There is always a ‘freedom choice’ in any of these Hegelian Dialectics that the Elite don’t even want us to consider. That is the kind of “out of the box thinking” that threatens their paradigm of power. Instead of the Fascist or Socialist false choice, you can choose the Constitutional choice that limits the power of the centralized Elite. The collectivists want to abolish property rights and the American Revolution and Constitution are about protecting property rights. The Elite will never give you that choice, because it does not serve their interests." http://www.ronpaul2012.com/the-issues/end-the-fed/ Romney and Ryan are not campaigning to offer an alternative to the Federal Reserve, just to cut spending. Whoope do. Austerity measures here we come. So can one of you please tell me how anything will really change for the better in the U S of A? It won't, it can't. If every dollar in existence went back to the Fed today you'd still owe them the interest, which has never been created and issued for you to pay back. All money in existence today is issued as debt. Ryan hasn't done any real math at all. He can't. Any 'money' in your savings bank, in your wallet, under the bed, is debt money owed to the Fed, and while you have it some other sucker can't pay his debt. To kick start the economy you'll have to borrow from the Fed. anyway, so how does that fix anything? Tell me if you are able, so I can advise our Dickhead government how to fix the same problem we have. Smoke and mirrors. Divide and Rule. Big game, same puppet masters. I too would like to see Buellinmke and Rocco speak up, if for no other reason than to see Rocco pi** so many people off with so few words. Sometimes I see more generosity and kindness given to dogs in the Dog Threads than is given to some fellow Americans. A decent society looks after its own. What has happened?

Romney and Ryan are not campaigning to offer an alternative to the Federal Reserve, just to cut spending. Whoope do. Austerity measures here we come. I've posted just within the last few days that R&R support an audit of the Fed. You have to start somewhere, but first...they have to get elected. They are focusing their campaign on the economy and 0's failed record, and rightly so. Getting after the Fed will come in due time. Austerity measures? Call it that if you will, and certainly there will be some. I, on the other hand, would be more inclined to call it a long overdue financial reality check; our present course CANNOT be sustained for much longer. So can one of you please tell me how anything will really change for the better in the U S of A? It won't, it can't. If every dollar in existence went back to the Fed today you'd still owe them the interest, which has never been created and issued for you to pay back. All money in existence today is issued as debt. Ryan hasn't done any real math at all. He can't. Sigh. Any 'money' in your savings bank, in your wallet, under the bed, is debt money owed to the Fed, and while you have it some other sucker can't pay his debt. Sigh. To kick start the economy you'll have to borrow from the Fed. anyway, so how does that fix anything? Sigh. Tell me if you are able, so I can advise our Dickhead government how to fix the same problem we have. If you - or I - have a dickhead government, you're pretty much screwed, one way or another, either short term, or long term, or both. The trick is to NOT have a dickhead government. We - the USA - have two dickheads in the top spots right now. R&R appear NOT to be dickheads; how refreshing - it's been a while for US. I made the statement a couple of days ago "it all starts at the top," i.e. an organization will, in due time, take on the character of the folks at the top. The cure for our particular stench is a cleansing of the White House, which is just a few short months away. THEN we will begin to heal, reunite and prosper, financially and morally. Smoke and mirrors. Divide and Rule. Big game, same puppet masters. Disagree. R&R are, IMO, the real deal. I too would like to see Buellinmke and Rocco speak up, if for no other reason than to see Rocco pi** so many people off with so few words. Is that all it takes to be "relevant"? Geez, I could be really, REALLY relevant if I tried.  Sometimes I see more generosity and kindness given to dogs in the Dog Threads than is given to some fellow Americans. Is this just an American problem, amigo? A decent society looks after its own. What has happened? Assignment for you: Collate all the posts over the years from the two folks you mention above, post them up here, and make your case. Not everyone can be a clever twat, not everyone cares to be 'rich'. I'm neither. I AM a patriotic American, though, longing for a return to our Constitutional values. I see much hope in R&R. I see (and have documented) dismal failure with three and a half years of Rope and Chains. A Constitutional Republic doesn't even need useless political parties to exist.

Abbott and Costello explain Obama's Accounting System. COSTELLO: I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America. ABBOTT: Good Subject. Terrible Times. It's 8.4%. COSTELLO: That many people are out of work? ABBOTT: No, that's 16%. COSTELLO: You just said 8.4%. ABBOTT: 8.4% Unemployed. COSTELLO: Right 8.4% out of work. ABBOTT: No, that's 16%. COSTELLO: Okay, so it's 16% unemployed. ABBOTT: No, that's 8.4%... COSTELLO: WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 8.4% or 16%? ABBOTT: 8.4% are unemployed. 16% are out of work. COSTELLO: IF you are out of work you are unemployed. ABBOTT: No, you can't count the "Out of Work" as the unemployed. You have to look for work to be unemployed. COSTELLO: BUT THEY ARE OUT OF WORK!!! ABBOTT: No, you miss my point. COSTELLO: What point? ABBOTT: Someone who doesn't look for work, can't be counted with those who look for work. It wouldn't be fair. COSTELLO: To whom? ABBOTT: The unemployed. COSTELLO: But they are ALL out of work. ABBOTT: No, the unemployed are actively looking for work. Those who are out of work stopped looking. They gave up. And, if you give up, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed. COSTELLO: So if you're off the unemployment roles, that would count as less unemployment? ABBOTT: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely! COSTELLO: The unemployment just goes down because you don't look for work? ABBOTT: Absolutely it goes down. That's how you get to 8.4%. Otherwise it would be 16%. You don't want to read about 16% unemployment, do ya? COSTELLO: That would be frightening. ABBOTT: Absolutely. COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means there are two ways to bring down the unemployment number? ABBOTT: Two ways is correct. COSTELLO: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job? ABBOTT: Correct. COSTELLO: And unemployment can also go down if you stop looking for a job? ABBOTT: Bingo. COSTELLO: So there are two ways to bring unemployment down, and the easier of the two is to just stop looking for work. ABBOTT: Now you're thinking like a democrat economist. COSTELLO: I don't even know what the hell I just said! ABBOTT: Now you're thinking like a liberal politician. | ||

Hmmm, just read an article on Fighter Planes. http://www.flightjournal.com/blog/2012/07/16/the-p erfect-fighter/ When Clinton took the US armed forces and radically reduced them, ( claiming to "shrink government" ) we found ourselves at the beginning of the Iraq War with a smaller Army than we Had Deployed in Desert Storm, the Kuwait war. Yet we won. Still the baddest gorilla in town. Yeah! But the Occupation of a couple of countries has hurt us a great deal, and despite my arguing that we must not abandon people we freed from dictators, it's pretty obvious that: While we can free a country from dictators, we can't make some one free. Being free is up to them. So I'm not big on "occupation" as a tactic unless we are going to go straight Hobbesian Economics and Become a Fracking Empire. ( since I'm not thinking that's a good idea, lets just NOT do that, Ok? ) But...... to the point. The military budget goes down after each war, and the military gets cut, past the bone, so that we always have to play catch up when the next war comes. And it does. This cycle on the roller coaster has us with a very few modern fighter planes, and a bunch of really good, 70's planes, but not a whole lot of them... and a few 50's planes we've never got around to replacing. We've scrapped the rest. Now it's invisible airplanes that are an issue, the modern ones, which in US inventory is the F-22, the B-2, and somewhat, the B1. That's it. The F35 is slow to come and the process of developing these expensive weapons systems is slow, expensive and messed up. ( that's bipartisan mess, too ) Now in the next war, you just may need invisible airplanes, if you want to have any at all. We only built 187 stealth fighters, and we've lost some. There won't be any more. If the enemy has stealth, all non stealth fighters are baby harp seals. The side that has air superiority wins. So I'm concerned about us shrinking our bloated, overdeveloped, corrupt, military Industrial Complex, lest someone else's ruin my day. Kinda sucks. | ||

From the article you linked, emphasis mine:
Food for thought, eh? That's OK, if the current Prez follows through on his promise of more "flexibility" if reelected, I'm sure everything will be just fine... | ||

Fb1, your response to my post was much tamer than I was expecting. In fact I was expecting to be ignored :-). I'm not sure what 'Sigh' as an answer to some of my questions means though. Silly questions? Irrelevant questions? You can't give me an answer because you don't know? It doesn't matter anyway. "...dismal failure with three and a half years of Rope and Chains." Over the years I've found Peter Schiff fairly accurate with his predictions. I don't think he's a fool. http://schiffradio.com/b/Republicans-Hope,-but-Don t-Change/-388984124519056208.html Another sign that I'm getting older is that the man running for Vice Presidency hadn't been born when Kennedy was eliminated. Hell, the world of his childhood was already on the slippery slopes. Paul Ryan is very good at speaking in a way that pushes the emotions button, but he doesn't really say much. "...longing for a return to our Constitutional values. I see much hope in R&R." Which Constitution do R&R represent? Hint, it's not the first one. The United States exists in two forms: 1. The original United States that was in operation until 1860; a collection of sovereign Republics in the union. Under the original Constitution the States controlled the Federal Government; the Federal Government did not control the States and had very little authority. 2. The original United States has been usurped by a separate and different UNITED STATES formed in 1871, which only controls the District of Columbia and it’s territories, and which is actually a corporation (the UNITED STATES CORPORATION) that acts as our current government. The United States Corporation operates under Corporate/Commercial/Public Law rather than Common/Private Law. The original Constitution was never removed; it has simply been dormant since 1871. It is still intact to this day. This fact was made clear by Supreme Court Justice Marshall Harlan (Downes v. Bidwell, 182, U.S. 244 1901) by giving the following dissenting opinion: “Two national governments exist; one to be maintained under the Constitution, with all its restrictions; the other to be maintained by Congress outside and Independently of that Instrument.” Where in the original Constitution for The Republic does it mention democracy? "The practice of listening to opposing views is essential for effective citizenship. It is essential for our democracy." - Barack Obama's remarks at University of Michigan on May 1, 2010. "Democracy is ... the only path to national success and dignity." — George W. Bush "We must revitalize our democracy." — Bill Clinton "The world must be made safe for democracy." — Woodrow Wilson Do these quotes sound relevant to a Constitutional Republican form of government? They don't to me. "I've posted just within the last few days that R&R support an audit of the Fed. You have to start somewhere, but first...they have to get elected." If elected, they'll be led into the smokey room, shown the JFK film footage, and read their agenda. Like they all are. Because they will have been 'elected' on the Corporate Ticket. They represent the US Corporation. They will never get an audit of the Fed either. What is Capitalism? Capitalism is an ECONOMIC System - NOT a form of Government like a "Constitutional Republic" or a "democracy". Do NOT conflate the issues! Capital is merely the "means of production". The USA is a FREE-Market with FREE-Enterprise ECONOMIC System. All economic scales involve CAPITAL (the means of production) - so the term "Capitalism" is again very deliberately confusing. It is WHO CONTROLS the capital that defines the difference between each different economic system. Hint. The Federal Reserve, a private corporation operating under Corporate/Admiralty Law (UCC) controls your capital by its sole right to issue currency to the Corporate United States Government. So, they operate as a Democracy, which is maybe why the above quotes from previous presidents? "Admiralty/Maritime Law/International Law – The King’s law. Deals with criminal acts that only apply to international contracts. Under this law, the people are no longer sovereign. The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) that the United States practices is based on Admiralty Law. Under the UCC, contracts do not have to be entered into knowingly. Simple agreements can be binding, and as long as you exercise the benefits of that "agreement," you must meet the obligations associated with those benefits. If you accept the benefit offered by the government, then you MUST follow, to the letter, each and every statute involved with that benefit. That “benefit” is the Federal Reserve Notes (U.S. dollars). By paying for things with U.S. dollars you are unknowingly giving up all of your Constitutional rights and are legally obligated to follow all of the UCC statues. But you were NEVER told this." A true Government of the People under the Original Constitution would issue its own currency, without debt. U.S. Citizen/Subject – A corporate fictitious entity that merely represents the real person. It acts as a “strawman.” [To call oneself a “sovereign citizen” or “sovereign subject” is an oxymoron, since “sovereign” and “citizen/subject” are mutually exclusive of each other.] When asked if you are a “U.S. Citizen” on corporate legal documents, if you check “yes,” you agree to the terms of Corporate Law and unknowingly relinquish your sovereign status and transfer all of your rights to the UNITED STATES CORPORATION since you are now under contract. In 1933, 48 Stat 1, of the TWEA was amended to include the United States Person because they wanted to take our gold away. Executive Order 6102 was created to make it illegal for a U.S. Citizen to own gold. In order for the Government to take our gold away and violate our Constitutional rights, we were reclassified as ENEMY COMBATANTS.” So you Fb1, are an enemy of Washington DC. In 1933, there was a second United States bankruptcy. In the first bankruptcy the United States collateralized all public lands. In the 1933 bankruptcy, the U.S. government collateralized the private lands of the people (a lien) – they borrowed money against our private lands. They were then mortgaged. That is why we pay property taxes. From a speech in Congress in The Bankruptcy of the United States Congressional Record, March 17, 1993, Vol. 33, page H-1303, Speaker Representative James Trafficant Jr. (Ohio) addressing the House states: “...It is an established fact that the United States Federal Government has been dissolved by the Emergency Banking Act, March 9, 1933, 48 Stat. 1, Public Law 89-719; declared by President Roosevelt, being bankrupt and insolvent. H.J.R. 192, 73rd Congress m session June 5, 1933 - Joint Resolution To Suspend The Gold Standard and Abrogate The Gold Clause dissolved the Sovereign Authority of the United States and the official capacities of all United States Governmental Offices, Officers, and Departments and is further evidence that the United States Federal Government exists today in name only. By the way, Canada, Australia and New Zealand are also operating in bankruptcy. "Please elaborate. Who "manages" the country in your scenario? CFR. UN. CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION. VATICAN. TRILATERAL COMMISSION. AIPAC. FABIAN SOCIETY. FEDERAL RESERVE,IMF,BIS. The people of America, not so much. In fact, not at all, because you are citizens, artificial entities. Enemies of the state. "I AM a patriotic American, though, longing for a return to our Constitutional values." Of that I have no doubt. Income tax unconstitutional Do you believe Paul Ryan does not know this about Income Tax? If he doesn't, in my opinion he is not qualified to speak of tax matters. If he does, in my opinion he is not truthful. Is he a 'patriotic American'? What does our Constitution say about war? Our Founders divided war into two separate powers: Congress was given the power to declare war and the president was given the power to wage war. What that means is that under our system of government, the president cannot legally wage war against another nation in the absence of a declaration of war against that nation from Congress. Article I of the Constitution clearly gives Congress, not the president, the “power… to declare War.” The Founding Fathers sought to avoid a situation where one man had the power to commit the nation to war on his own initiative. 'America's wars' are being authorised by the United Nations. Truth is, they are not your wars, but you the people are paying. You are paying the bill, and your people are paying with their lives. Whenever you see the yellow fringe flag, know that you are under US Corporate jurisdiction, UCC Maritime Law. How can you be happy about that? Forget everything you think you know Fb1, and 'go down the rabbit hole'. Discover the truth and expose the lie. You owe it to your country. One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors. Plato "Our ideal society is like a bee-hive. Above the workers we have drones". Plato from 'The Republic'. How appropriate. I'm on your side Fb1. But lift the green curtain and expose the illusion. R&R may, if you are lucky, give you another 4 years breathing space. Personally, I don't need a 'Leader', or someone to re-present me. I want a civil servant to do what I ask 'it' to do, nothing else.

On track to more debt that every President before him. Combined. Recession continues, and unemployment has risen since Obama was elected US Senator. Becoming Prez just meant he gets to lie about what the rate really is. ( 16%.... over 25% for black youth, and getting worse... ) The beginning of a takeover of the Health care system, with death panels meetings to determine rationing plans. Hope your children get really good pay, since they will have to live on what they make from August to December. All the rest goes to taxes. It has too. Foreign policy issues here, too. The Food into fuel program has led to riots worldwide as food prices climb. Egypt has gone to the Muslim Brotherhood after the Obama supported a coup. War with Israel is on the way. The Obama has deposed the dictator of Libya, so the Europeans can have the oil. ( where are the cries of "no blood for oil"?? ) http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/314685/syri a-why-al-qaeda-winning-ed-husain The Obama has called for the Asad regime in Syria to "reform". Since Asad is an Alawite, the Islamist forces are joining together to conquer Syria, while we watch. Since Syria has the best army, the most modern gear, ( other than the Saudi's ) and most important, the most modern air defense system in the entire region, ( and possibly the planet. Until Iran gets more of the latest Russian missiles and radars smuggled in in violation of sanctions ) It's not a country I would want as a neighbor, were I Israeli. I'd enjoy it even less if Asad was gone and the madmen who replace him have Killing me as a higher priority than staying in power. Let's see..... are there any more countries that The Obama can turn over to radical terrorist groups? ( yes, yes, Iraq and Afghanistan, but that's already a done deal. ) | ||
