When The Law Is Eric Holder

Exactly right, Corlyss! This is all part and parcel of the ‘politics of personal intimidation’. That’s why there are no ‘good’ Muslims around. They’re afraid they will be singled out; their neighbors and families harassed.

The emphasis has shifted away from polls and is now firmly entrenched in virtual power. It’s long been the case on the nation’s college campuses; in the media; in the arts; on the cocktail circuit. Never let your conservative sentiments slip. You’ll find yourself disgraced; ridiculed; excluded. I’ve noticed it myself, buried in my bunker as I am. “I’m no longer your friend,” says one. “You’re just plain crazy,” says another. “I think you should see about getting some help,” a third suggests.

A few years back, I thought I might be able to further my career by writing liberal stuff. I tried. I just couldn’t do it. Yet, there are some out there doing it and collecting salaries.

Loved the ‘Arcade Fire’ tune though. I think I’ll post it on my own blog later. Oh, I know they’re all lefties - but, then again, they couldn’t all be that mindless. Most are just putting on an act to stay alive.

With these latest tactics, it only takes a relatively few - enough to fill a camera angle. Everything else drops off the frame. After that, you can say anything you want and have it be everywhere. It’s like these watchdog groups that consist of three people and a fax machine - the ones that caution against treading on cryptobiotic soil. I guess now it’s even gone beyond that.

In India, computer usage is strictly monitored. When you go into a cyber café to check your e-mails, you’re required to sign in and show your ID or passport. “There’d been threats against the Chief Minister,” they say.

It’s about to happen here as well. The government will control the internet in the name of ‘National Security’ and only the ‘right’ people will have full access. It’ll only take one mishap traced to some loony tunes in some basement garage to initiate a crackdown and make it permanent.

The freedom to assemble was included in the United Nations’ ‘Universal Declaration of Human Rights’ in 1948. The fact that it had to be an enumerated right in the first place meant that some countries viewed it as a threat and did not allow it.

Conventional wisdom had it that relatively small gatherings can never be a threat to the enormity of a state. They never envisioned virtual assemblies on Facebook.

Still, a treat is a threat. It might be overt or implied. It’s a matter for the law to handle. It gets a bit trickier when the law is Eric Holder.

Crashing Poll Numbers

Politically speaking, Obama is in exactly the same position Bush was in. He is set to lose his base. True believers will not now suddenly say that war is right simply because a Democrat says so without having to admit to a double standard.

For some, little this president can say or do will seriously diminish him. They are known to fall into one of two categories: one, those who happily acknowledge and submit to the perceived higher power of the Obama brand; and, two, those who have placed their bets on Obama, the man, and are counting on him to sweep them to the winning side of history. The latter have already started to re-think their positions. It is they who account for Obama's crashing poll numbers.

There is no upside for the Obama administration in any of this. The country is so polarized, it is impossible for him to draw converts from the Conservative/Republican side, even if it should occur to him to adopt all their positions. The popularity contest is lost; the campaign is over. Obama is now free to do whatever he wants within that sliver of time he has been afforded.

Perhaps the single most astounding indicator of Barack Hussein Obama's decline is a recent poll that states that a whopping 44% would now rather have George W. Bush back to run the country.

Raining Stones

American public opinion moves at a glacial pace, especially in relation to the frantic speed at which the Obama administration is working to remake America. Larry Kudlow has always been a good egg. I was disappointed early on when I heard him applauding Obama’s lip service support of capitalism. But Larry too has come around, now stating categorically that Obama’s economic plan will not work.

This is where most American opinion resides at the moment. Americans seem to be okay with that. They are resigned to the waiting for the opportunity to change the political landscape in the next couple of election cycles.

What most Americans are still failing to grasp is that what they see as a failure of policy since Obama’s been in office is DELIBERATE! Kudlow continues to hold out hope that the Obama administration, seeing the error of its ways, will re-tool and try some pro-growth policies, like tax cuts. When I hear Kudlow saying this, I want to just reach in through the radio, grab him by the shoulders, shake him awake and shout, “It’s deliberate; you fool! Obama’s aim is precisely this. He wants to implode the economy; he wants to crush the dollar. He’s a Marxist! The people around him are Marxists. They were picked by Obama because they are Marxists. This is not a smear; it’s not mud-slinging. It’s the way it is. They are Marxists. And their aim is to destroy America’s economy, all during Obama’s first term. Everybody knows it now on some level. They know it in Maine; they know it in Oregon, and everywhere in between. Even the Marxists among us are having second thoughts for they are about to achieve what they have always thought was merely a pipe dream."

The strength of a nation can be directly linked to its people. Destroying the economy of any nation automatically plunges it in to civil strife. This is the starting point for the Marxist societal re-ordering which Obama envisions.

Obama is obviously not the only one determined to bring this about. He has many very smart and patient supporters. It might be said that Obama is only the figurehead – the mouthpiece – for all those who have been planning for this moment for generations. They’ve been meticulous in their preparation. They’ve undermined our educational system; they’ve re-written our history; they’ve taken control every institution that would have held them in check: the media, academe, entertainment, etc. They’ve effectively neutralized any challenge to themselves from a corrupt political class. All that remains is to ignite the people to anarchy.

Right now, it resembles a Japanese Kabuki play where all the action happens at the end. Nothing has happened yet, but the fuse has been lit. As I see it, when the time comes for Obama to run for re-election, the polls will show the opponent way ahead. The markets always predict the future. They will be encouraged by Obama’s poor showing in the polls. Consumers will spring to life, as will investors. A turn-around? No. A trigger!

By that time, the money supply will have been flooded with so much worthless paper; inflation will set in big time. This will grind the entire economy to a halt – like sawdust in the crankshaft of a car. Civil strife ensues. Martial Law is declared. We go from there.

I’m not saying that it’ll work. But that is plan A. I am convinced of it. Public option, this or that, is merely a distraction, designed to overwhelm the system; to deflect; distract - to once again get us to scratch our heads, when it starts raining stones, and ask, "How the hell did this happen?"
