Money, Middle America, & Clear and Present Danger

Posted by Brian Peters on Thursday, July 09, 2009 2:40:59 PM

So far, I've had just about every working person say or ask me....where is that Two Trillion dollars and why hasn't it made a difference in my life? In the past four weeks, I've had so many people just stop in the place I work at (I wish B.E.V was a full time job) and ask if we have any job openings. "No, I'm sorry but we nothing." Then I tell them the truth, "I don't know of anyone hiring". But I can't say that after today because West Corp is hiring 100 people to work at their call center. I'm sure a bunch of burly, out of work construction guys/gals would just 'flourish' at a job like that....being stuck in a cubicle, being nice and polite on the phone. I recall during the campaign of '08, Barack Obama making huge promises of MILLIONS of jobs. Where they at? Oh, that's right, they're overseas in China..... Those 'green' jobs? Where are they? Must be the States that contributed to Barack Obama during the campaign that have received more than 2/3rds more money than State's that did not support Barack Obama..........no DISCRIMINATION there???!!!! So, with all of these 'social weflare' programs the U.S. Federal Government is going to have to take on.....where is the money going to come from? No one in the United States is producing/getting money...no work, no workers, no money, no spending. That's the way the circle works. So there is no way, the system Obama is promising will be able to work. We will become like China with troops in the streets beating down, arresting, shooting fellow Americans who are protesting for their basic rights. As long as the Socialist keep hoarding, stealing, taking all the money in the United States, the closer to anarchy we get.

Now with that segway, I was listening to so far two National radio talk shows, the kind that Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, George Soros, want to eliminate, I heard 'middle class' Americans talking. What I heard, is not alarming to me, but should be a wake up call for our Nation. One male caller talked about being in a national chain book store and overheard a group of males sitting at a table, talking about how could they really change the direction this Nation is taking. A female caller talked about her own fear of our Government and it's usurping of the Constiution and direction they in power are taking this Nation.

Function: noun
: a risk or threat to safety or other public interests that is serious and imminent; especially : one that justifies limitation of a right (as freedom of speech or press) by the legislative or executive branch of government clear and present danger
n : a standard for judging when freedom of speech can be abridged; "no one has a right to shout `fire' in a
crowded theater when there is no fire because such an action would pose a clear and present danger to public
safety"

With those definitions in mind:

WASHINGTON -- House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday she expects Democrats to pursue further claims by the CIA Director Leon Panetta that the spy agency repeatedly misled Congress.

Democrats say Panetta told Congress last month that senior CIA officials have concealed significant actions and misled lawmakers many times since 2001.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes and six other of the 13 Democrats on the panel sent Panetta a letter on June 26 demanding he retract a May 15 statement that it is not CIA "policy or practice to mislead Congress."

So dear reader, do you now understand 'why'.....Barack Obama put Leon Panetta as head of the CIA? It was not to lead the CIA in the continuing fight of everlasting vigiliance against our enemies, it was soley so Obama could have a "lawyer" inside the CIA so Obama can destory the CIA and make it into a 'big brother' institution to be used against Obama/Soros enemies...namely, the average American and Patriotic American.

Obama has used President Lincoln as a reference to himself and his political life....well, Obama just may repeat history in being the one in the White House during an American Civil War, one he was instrumental in creating.

THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION: JUNE 2009

Nonfarm payroll employment continued to decline in June (-467,000),
and the unemployment rate was little changed at 9.5 percent, the Bureau
of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today.
Job losses were widespread across the major industry sectors, with
large declines occurring in manufacturing, professional and business
services, and construction.

Added by B.E.V. 3:15pm CST: This is something that has happend only under and since the Barack H. Obama Presidency, over 42 years, the Air Force did fly overs.....

An Idaho community had secured an Air Force flyover for its local festival every year for more than 40 years, organizers say, but this year, the Air Force turned the request down over the festival's religious focus.

The God and Country Family Festival in Nampa, Idaho, applied to the Pentagon for the flyover but was denied in an e-mail, board member Patti Syme told KTBV. Syme said the e-mail from a defense official informed her the Pentagon prohibited support of special interest groups.

"I called him immediately and just said, you know hey we've been doing this for 42 years, we've had flyovers, what is the problem?" Syme told KTBV. "And he said, well we have looked up your Web site and everything on your Web site seemed to focus on Christianity, ministry booths. And he said, in fact, ma'am it sounds like it focuses on Christianity. And he said, in fact, it would be great to go to, in fact, if I personally, could come I would, but we can't endorse such an endeavor, so they couldn't do the flyover."

A defense department official told FOX News the Air Force denied the request because it violates a Pentagon policy against supporting any event "that provides a selective benefit to any individual, group, or organization, including any religious or sectarian organization, ideological movement, political campaign or organization, or commercial enterprise, to include a shopping mall or motion picture promotion."

The Air Force was in charge of the decision-making process, meaning neither the secretary of defense nor President Obama weighed in directly, the official said. (B.E.V. note: if you believe this...I have a tropical island in Lake Michigan to sell you...for dirt cheap!)

And although the Air Force wouldn't dispute the festival board's claim of longtime military participation, the military doesn't keep records on this type of event, the official told FOX News.

Capt. Tom Wenz from Air Force public affairs told FOX News that past participation was due to the fact that the event was described only as a "patriotic tribute," and the Air Force wasn't aware until now of the apparent focus on Christianity, despite the festival's name.
