Why is Obama Purging Our Best Generals and Admirals?

      Here is a thought that you will have difficulty finding anywhere else.  It is the result of hours of dedicated research and conclusions drawn from that research.  I take credit for all of the conclusions derived in the posting.
      I'm certain that all of you are aware that the civilian commander-in-chief of our military, has nothing but contempt for our brave soldiers and sailors.  We are also well aware that he refuses to accept even constructive criticism or advice that goes against his radical political philosophy that involves turning America into a third world country, reducing its influence all over the world.  Not only does he need to destroy our economy with Obamacare and out of control government spending, but by the systematic degrading our military.  The military is only useful if it can be used for his own political ends as he has demonstrated by waiting till and election year to get Bin Laden and then taking all the credit.
      Let's look at some of the firings, resignations, and "retirements"of senior military during his regime.  First on the list is Four Star General Stanley McChrystal. who replaced General David Kieman, who did not see eye to eye with the cic  McChrystal  one of our most capable generals, was allegedly fired because Obama was not happy with his performance in Afghanistan.  In reality, he and Obama were at odds over  policy and especially civilian appointees and elected officials with whom he was required to work.  In particular Vice President Joe Biden whom McChrystal considered an incompetent idiot.  To my knowledge Joe's title is Vice President.  The is no vice commander in chief.  In order to cover the McChrystal firing, Obama appointed the very popular General David Petraeus  for whom he had future plans.  Petraeus was hated by the far left as he was always successful.  You recall Pelosi and her "betray us comments and despicable Harry Reed and his "war is lost" soliloquy. It would be very difficult to remove him over differences in strategy or strategic planning without raising eyebrows because of his previous successes.  Instead a plan was hatched to make him CIA head.  This would bring him back to Washington, DC and available for scandal.  Even as a general an affair would not have ended a career, but as head of the CIA it could and did.  Whether he was set up by Paula Broadwell and or Jill Kelley, we may never know.  It should amaze me, but understanding the mainstream media and it cozy relationship with the regime, that reporters were able to gather so much personal information about Petraeus and McChrystal without being feed leaked info from private government files.  I'm certain that the regime and its spying on Americans included high ranking generals who held unfavorable impressions of the CIC and his regime.
      But these great generals are not the only ones that are gone.  General George Allen, second in command at Cencom to Petraeus was also sacked as part of the evolving Jill Kelley scandal.  Although no one in the corrupt Clinton State Department lost there jobs over Benghazi,  General Carter Ham and Admiral Adam Gaudette did.   Both Ham and Gaudette wanted to defy the Obama order to stand down and try to help Ambassador Stevens and those American embattled at the consulate in Benghazi.  Not ever serving in the military and only feeling contempt for the brave men that do, meant that Obama was willing to sacrifice them despite the military's desire to do otherwise (no man left behind).  Instead the Obama's spin was that the decision to stand down was the military's.  The whole Benghazi affair has been feverishly covered up from the start by the regime with lie after lie and denial to Congress and the American public in order to save an election that he was attempting to fix.  When all of this budget crap ends, Congress must continue to get to the truth about Benghazi,including the real reason that Ambassador Stevens was targeted, it goes much deeper then just that he was the ambassador.
      The revamping of the military continues. This year Marine General Boyd Roberts was replaced at Ft. Jackson, the largest military training center, where most combat training is provided before deployment in a combat zone. More recently, within days of each other, Admiral Timothy Giardino and General Michael Carey were both relieved of duty.  Is it no coincidence that Giardino was in charge of the naval nuclear arsenal and Carey the air force's.  Obama has continued to degrade of nuclear deterrent as a means of weakening America.  Other general and admirals have "retired" being eased out by the regime.
     There are other reasons why Obama is weakening our military and why it is so dangerous.  Prior to WWII Stalin, afraid of a military coup, purged and executed most of the senior officers, seriously degrading the leadership of the Russian Army. The Russian people paid the price, as the Nazis, destroying everything in their path (everything that they didn't destroy, the Russians destroyed as scorched earth was the only military tactic available at the time) came within a few miles of capturing Moscow as the Russian Army lacked sufficient leadership early in the war.  Fortunately for Russia and Stalin, he did not execute Zhukov, who brilliantly pushed back the Germans after they had been stopped in their tracks by the harsh Russian winter. Still, fearing a rival, Stalin held Zhukov back and replaced him so that the ultimate prize, Berlin, was given to another general.
      Why would Obama want to so degrade our military.  The utter contempt for it is obvious, but there is a more serious and far more subtle reason.  As economies fail and the value of the money rapidly falls, the cost of essential goods and services will rise out of the range of many.  Around the world we have seen that when this occurs, social unrest breaks out with mass protests against the government. Greece, Syria, Egypt are all recent examples.  It is to the Constitution.  Obama knows, that if his plan to destroy capitalism and replace the Constitution is successful (his "hope and change" and "radical transformation of America")' that when the economy collapses, insurrection may break out as prices rise and times get tough, a real Obama created depression.  It may be necessary to call out the Army to quell the violence and he wants to make sure the Army would remain loyal to him.  The military oath that all member of the military are required to take does not swear allegiance to the President, it swears allegiance to the Constitution. Strong conservative military leaders are well aware of this and may decided to defend the Constitution rather than a president set on destroying it.  Outspoken retired Col. Allen West is wonderful example of how most officers feel.  Despite arming with assault weapons using large clips and hollow point bullets a private army within the Department of Homeland Security may not be large or effective enough to defend the president.  Having and army of "brown shirts" in the form of ACORN,  Organizing for American (ACORN's successor), and SEIU thugs that are sworn to do his bidding, may also help, but Obama needs the Army to help or at least stay away.  Putting his men in command may do just that.  He has learned well from the Clintons who disparaged and embarrassed otherwise persons favored by the press or American people to replace them with their friends (the theft by Hillary's buddy of the petty cash file brought on the false charges against the White House Travel Office staff).
     I sincerely hope that this doesn't happen, but every step the regime has taken in respect to our economy has attempted to destroy it and replace it with a dictatorship. The conclusions drawn and the scenario described above certainly are possible so that control of the military is absolutely necessary.  Preventing Obama from fixing the 2014 midterm elections is critical.  If we get to 2016 with America intact, we cannot allow Moochelle to become president or vice president (the president would either die or be assassinated).
      One of the more popular parts of my blog is the "you just can't make this stuff up segment".  So I'm going to end with a few of these related to the government shut down.
      This weekend in Miami is the traditional Columbus Day Regatta, a huge party consisting of thousands of boat owners anchoring in Biscayne Bay to celebrate which by all accounts is a bawdy fun event.  Biscayne Bay is open water, but includes National Park Water.  The public has been warned that Park Rangers in government speed boats will be out in force to harass and discourage boaters in the area, freedom of the seas be damned.  You just can't make this stuff up.
     As part of his treasonous policy to inflict pain on the American people, Obama has closed many National Parks and Monuments including the National Mall in Washington, DC which houses the National Museum, the Smithsonian Institute, the Holocaust Memorial, the National Postal Museum, the Air and Apace Museum, and other venues own by the American people.  The Mall access has been closed by barricades backed up by armed rangers to Americans, but this week the barricades were removed so that an immigration  rally of thousands of illegal aliens could take place.  Nancy Pelosis, also in favor of inflicting pain on the American people , was a featured speaker.  You just can't make this stuff up.
      American and foreign tourists visiting Yellowstone National Park last week were forced by armed rangers to stay on their buses as barricades had been placed around Old Faithful.  They were told that they were not even allowed to take photographs as that would be considered "recreating".  Some of the foreign tourists who didn't speak much English, thought that they were under arrest.  Now state and city governments have offered and opted to pay the expenses of keeping these sites open for tourists as they contribute to the local economy.  You just can't make this stuff up.
      During the shut down governmental agencies were to furlough nonessential employees.  The Department of Education did not fully comply as it only furloughed 95% of its employees.  What about the other 5%?  HUD furloughed the largest percentage, 99%.  What its says about some of the Departments is that they are vastly over staffed and over funded and there ver continued existence should be called into question.
      I will end with one last comment.  Those of you that know me, know that I am no fan of Rap or Rappers.  Its only Hard Rock and Heavy Metal for me, but I have to give St. Louis rapper Nellie some props as he made an excellent point about the government shut down.  He said, "if the government is shut down, do I still need to pay taxes."
      Please comment and pass on.  Get the word out.

Is Obama Guilty of Treason







      If it wasn't apparent before, i.e. you had your head up your ass, its obvious now, that Obama is the most political president since Woodrow Wilson.  Yes, the president is the head of his political party, but he also has to represent all Americans, even those who didn't vote for him.  That is called leadership, and Obama has shown very little of it.  From the beginning of the partial government shutdown, it was Obama who issued the order to make life as difficult as possible for the American people.  The media would always blame it on Republicans.  Americans, even low information voters, are beginning to see that the shutdown is really Obama and the Democrats fault.   It is interesting to observe that the National Parks and Monuments are closed, but Obamacare websites and registration are open (the web site has been closed down several times, but not due to the shutdown, but due to monumental glitches in the system, a system that is not ready).We can't pay death benefits to the families of our soldiers who were killed in action, but Obamacare registration is still open.  Everglades National Park is closed and brimming with armed rangers, whereas one rarely saw a ranger before the shutdown.  Similarly tourists can no longer get off the tour bus to take pictures of Old Faithful at Yellowstone without being threatened by armed rangers, more than are usually present before the shutdown, but Obamacare registration is still open.  The National Mall, a large open air venue that fronts numerous monument and museums, was barricaded and off limits to visitors with one exception. It was opened to allow an immigration rally for illegal aliens at which Democratic witch Nancy Pelosi was a featured speaker.  Go figure. Ironically the Nation Parks and Monuments often make money selling food, lodging, and souvenirs.  Now that they are closed they are loosing money.  And yes, dead beats are still getting EBT cards and Obamaphones, but families can't get death benefits for their relative killed in action.
      The abandonment of out fallen heroes by the commander-in-chief has finally drawn the ire of all but the most far left Americans.  Obama's job rating has fallen to 37%, his lowest ever, and this is turning into a real scandal (what else is new) Blocking veterans from the D-day Memorial in France or the WWII Veterans Memorial, both open air venues, was bad enough, but not paying for relatives to collect the remains of a fallen hero or for their burial is just plain brutal.  I can just picture the military hating president and his political advisors gleefully plotting this one out ringing their hands like the witches in the opening act of Macbeth, knowing it will show their contempt for the military and knowing full well what a demoralizing effect this will have on our men and women in uniform.   But this has backfired badly on these anti-Americans.  Obama was naturally trying to distance himself saying that he wasn't aware until today what was going on, throwing Secretary of Defense Hagel under the bus.  Hagel must resign, his career is over.  If he didn't know of this policy, then he is too stupid to have such an important job. If he knew about it and did nothing that is bad, and worst of all, if he was advised either directly through Obama to institute this policy or advise Obama (the unlikely scenario) that he was beginning this policy shows that he is either too incompetent, too dumb, or too loyal to Obama and not the military, he must resign.  Ultimately the Republicans will want to know how this could happen and Hagel, if he  is still around, will try to blame it on a movie or some disgruntled low level Pentagon employee,
      Ironically President Assad of Syria has been inflicting pain on his people for years and Obama even considered bombing him for crimes against his own people.  I hope Syria doesn't decide to bomb us for Obamas nefarious policy of inflicting pain on the American people in oder to achieve an destructive political goal.
      Speaking of Obamacare, the online web site has not been doing well.  After all it only cost 634 million dollars to construct more than six times the 96 million dollars it was originally  said to have cost.  The high level of traffic was said to be the blamed.  Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, all web sites with daily high traffic levels have never cost anywhere near that, nor have they ever had so many glitches.  That's the difference between the public and private sector.  For those that could get through, the most common question was "what will it cost me if I don't sign up".  For those that want to sign up, and this comes from the state run exchanges that did have the glitches, sticker shock has been the rule of the day.  Huge increases and in many cases with less cases and much higher deductibles has forced many to consider paying the penalty (is it a tax or not). The IRS is supposed to enforce Obamacare, and I am certain you will be happy to know, that Sarah Ingram is in charge.  It has come out that Ms. Ingram has supplied Obama with private tax payers personal tax information.  She should be in prison rather than be in a high paying job,  I am certain you are worried that your private healthcare information won't be shared with others.  If you are sick, it may be more important what political party you support than whether there is treatment available.  Maybe if you have asthma and wind up in the emergency room, the doctor will be advised by Obama to give you a breathalyzer instead of a respirator if you belong to or support the Tea Party.  I recently informed my 94 year old mother, that Obama considers her a terrorist as she supports the Tea Party.  She wants to know if he is going to send her to Guantanamo.
      I can't tell you how disgusted I am.  Obama is clearly supposed to protect the American people.  That's his job, but clearly he only wants to inflict pain on the people rich and poor who go to work everyday, who pay the taxes that allow he and Moochelle to live their extravagant life style (1 million dollar golf outing and a hundred million for vacations). He has clearly got things mixed up.  He is supposed to work for us, we pay his salary and he should show some respect for that.

Whose to Blame

      Blame for the current government shutdown is all over the place.  Even the Tea Party has been accused of causing it.  In this post, I am going to shed light on who is really to blame and accuse the mainstream media again of not doing its homework.
      The checks and balances in the Constitution were put there for a purpose, to not allow our government to be ruled by tyranny of one branch or another.  The means of how to fund the government (i.e. taxes and/or user fees) and where to and how to direct those funds lies clearly with Congress.  The President can veto the Congressional  spending bill, sending Congress back to the drawing board, or Congress can override the Presidential veto by a 3/4 majority vote.  The President can still show his disapproval by allowing the bill to become law without his signature.
      Most bills that originate in the House of Representatives vary some from the version that gets passed in the Senate as parts of the House bill are stripped away and new amendments added.  The bill is  then sent back to the House where it is either approved in the revised form or further revision is carried out and the bill sent back to the Senate.  The usual way of getting through this time consuming back and forth is for House and Senate leaders to meet and work out an agreement with give and take from both sides.  Failure to meet, may draw out the process causing unnecessary delay.  After all, that is what politics is all about.
      The current impasse is primarily about funding Obamacare (the Affordable Care Act  ACA).  Not a single Republican voted for the ACA and debate was very limited with all Republican attempts at amending it were met with defeat.  In other words the Democrats legitimately used their power to pass the bill the President and the Center for American Progress, the author of the bill, wanted.   As the President says, "elections have consequences" and the Republicans lawfully using their new found power after having been swept into office in the congressional elections, have done just that  One of the major issues that was responsible for a stunning and overwhelming victory was the ACA and bill that was never even read by the people that voted for it.  As Nancy Pelosi,  Democrat Speaker of the House at the time, said "you have to pass the bill so you can read it."  The bill was not read for two reasons, first it was 2700 pages long and would take weeks and even months to get through and secondly, and more importantly, many Democrats would have wanted to amend all or parts of the bill not only delaying or preventing its passage, but the more time it took to pass the bill the more the public outrage.
      The main concern, although there are very many, is the individual mandate which requires individuals who are not covered by another insurance plan, to purchase health insurance or pay a fine.  Minimal plan coverage is  required or a "penalty" will need to be paid.  In selling the plan to the public, Obama termed this a penalty vehemently denying that it was a tax, though the penalty would be collected by what we have now learned is a corrupt and highly politicized IRS.  The Supreme Court by a 5-4 vote upheld much of the ACA including the dreaded individual mandate by calling the mandate a tax.  If that is the case, then the ACA was sold to the public under very false pretenses in regard to the mandate. (it was also sold to the public on a huge number of other false premises.)  There is also an employer mandate that requires employers to provide a certain level of health insurance benefits or pay a penalty (tax).  This was conveniently delayed a year from January 1, 2014 to January 1. 2015, conveniently after the November midterm elections.  The reason why the individual mandate is so importan to the ACA is that Obama and the Democrats are looking for the individual mandate to fund the ACA. Young healthy individuals, who rarely use health insurance, will now have to pay a premium.   Since Obamacare forces insurance companies to sell policies to those with preexisting and on going medical conditions at a favorable rate, rates to the young and healthy will be very high. If the young and healthy decided to pay the tax ("penalty") rather than purchase much more expensive insurance, insurance companies will drop out of the programs and the ACA will collapse as it will become economically unsustainable.   To Obama, this may not be a bad thing and I am certain that this is what his real long term goal is all along.  He will heroically step in and demand a single payer government run system to provide healthcare for all.  This will be called a tax just like the Medicare Tax and employers will be required to collect by withholding it from paychecks.  Those who make more will of course pay more. Wealth redistribution is always a part of any program he champions.
      So far the Republicans are the only ones that have budged.  They have gone from defunding the ACA to requesting the cancellations of some of the taxes associated with it and delaying the individual mandate a year, just like he has done with the employer mandate.  They have very rightly wanted Obamacare to apply to everyone in government as well, which seems very fair.  Still Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader, has refused a conference and President Obama has been unwilling to talk to Republicans as well, but continues to mouth off to the press and American people, playing his usual blame game, never accepting responsibility for anything that has gone wrong.  His current mantra often repeated by the mainstream media is the Tea Party is responsible.
      So who is to blame.  Obamacare is to blame and all of those who voted for it before reading and debating it.  I know for certain that President Obama didn't read before or after he signed it.  His pals at the Center for American Progress directed him to go ahead. For failing to compromise on a very flawed law, Harry Reid and Obama are to blame.   The Republicans have offered a variety of compromises including funding all of the government except the ACA so that a proper debate can be held on it.  After all, it has been delayed for some time whats a few more months or even a year going to hurt?  Republican continue to support the Constitution,  Obama and the Democrats continue to ignore it, both in spirit and substance.
