America's Survival, Budget Hawks, ACT for America


America's Survival

"We have obtained information indicating that the Obama Administration may attempt to “fast-track” several controversial sovereignty-destroying treaties. That is, they may attempt to bypass the Constitutional requirement that they need a two-thirds vote in the U.S. Senate to pass them. This is alarming.

You can read my article about this here. The advice for Obama to pursue this dangerous and irresponsible course comes from the Brookings Institution, headed by pro-world government advocate Strobe Talbott."

Blue Skies For Obama

"Media: Katrina crashes into New Orleans, FEMA responds feebly and President Bush is blamed for the loss of life and limb. Winter smacks middle America, killing 55, FEMA's late again, but President Obama gets a pass.



'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.

The column below by John Yoo, which appeared last Thursday in the Wall Street Journal, analyzes some of the decisions President Obama made in his first week as commander-in-chief.

Taken together, these decisions, as Yoo notes, “will seriously handicap our intelligence agencies from preventing future terrorist attacks.”

For instance, interrogators of terrorist suspects will be so restrained in their tactics that they won’t even be able to use “good cop/bad cop” techniques commonly used by police officers. In other words, interrogation tactics which have been legally used on our own citizens are, in Obama’s new world order of fighting terrorism, too extreme to be used on terrorist suspects.

This absurdity would be laughable if it weren’t so dangerous.

For the past few years Democrats assailed President Bush’s foreign policies, arguing that they made us “less safe.” Whatever one thinks of those policies, one incontrovertible fact remains: No terrorist attack was successfully executed in America on the President’s watch after 9/11.

According to intelligence experts one reason is the coercive interrogation techniques used to extract information from terrorist suspects and enemy combatants. With those now effectively jettisoned from our arsenal of self-defense, President Obama has put the nation at greater risk.
