President Obama has sign the NDAA into law today (December 31, 2011). His reasons for signing this legislation after pledging to veto it are given below. He does state:

Moreover, I want to clarify that my  Administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American…

On March 23, 1775, Patrick Henry delivered one of the most important speeches in our country's history.  Attending a meeting of the Second Virginia Convention at St. John's Church in Richmond, Henry intended to present a proposal to organize a militia in every Virginia county. The Convention met at St. John's Church rather than the Capitol in Williamsburg because of opposition from England's Royal Governor Lord Dunmore and his Royal Marines.  Suspicious of…

The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) was approved by the Senate on December  15th (the Bill of Rights Day). This legislation will federalize the National Guard, eliminate posse comitatus and may allow the federal government to suspend US…

This Christmas message from President Reagan in the White House thirty years ago shows us how far our country's leadership has fallen. From a President who believed in God,  Christmas and our children's future to a president who desecrated our national Christmas tree with ornaments of Chairman Mao and himself. We have reaped the consequences of "hope and change" which was actually only "failure and narcissism".…

The Revolutionary War was called the Presbyterian War in England. The clergy in the colonies understood natural laws as given by God and not only supported the revolution, they were on the front lines. The Black Robe Regiment may not be politically correct today but the social justice preached in what passes for most of our churches is a pitiful…

The United States is now acknowledging that we were responsible for the deaths of 24 Pakistani soldiers. This admission will go largely unnoticed by the media in our country while other nations will use this against us. The State Department's motto in this administration under the "leadership" of Hillary Clinton can be summed up succinctly as: "What - Me…

The following information  will not receive wide coverage in the media. How do I know? Yesterday's 337 rise in the Dow was predicated on the number of new housing starts. The background for the "good news" was not…

After what may be the most impressive cyber attack in history, Iran allegedly took control and possession of one of our RQ-170 Sentinel drones. Whether the success of this effort is the reason for increasing their cyber-warfare activities, the one billion dollars that they are allocating is a large program for Iran. The report below states that they will be funding both offensive and defensive capabilities.…

The new spending bill passed by Congress has a provision to defund enforcement of the incandescent light bulb until October 1, 2012. This is being hailed as a victory for the Republican party. As usual, I have some questions concerning this "victory".

1. Since the incandescent light bulb is still illegal as of January 1, 2012, who is going to sell them?
2. Will there be repercussions for vendors who did sell them once funding is put into…

There are two facts in this matter are clear:

1. The drone is completely intact.
2. The president has no idea how to proceed.

The questions are also clear:

1. Did Iran do this on their own?
2. Who will end up with this technology besides Iran?
3. What is being done so that this does not happen again?
4. Is the drone that went down in the Seychelles part of this…

Janet Napolitano has joined Eric Holder's attack on Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona. The press  release below has already convicted Sheriff Arpaio of discrimination. This conviction includes the termination of MCSO's 287(g) agreement. Whether this action is in retaliation for his investigation into Obama's eligibility to be president or a means to dismantle the rule of law, Sheriff Joe is in Obama's crosshairs.

This…

The Obama administration is now voicing concern about Iran's nuclear uranium enrichment program. Where have they been for the past 3 years? So Iran is only weeks away from 20% enriched uranium (weapons usable grade). The article below comes from the Jerusalem Post.

I suppose Israel will be the first "recipient" of any nuclear enrichments and the administration's lack of support for Israel has strained US-Israeli relations.  Here is the US response to a nuclear…

As Obama and Hillary are celebrating the establishment of Democracy in Egypt, the fallout of the new Muslim Brotherhood government is now becoming apparent. The dogs of war in the Middle East are being unleashed as the world is focused on the latest GOP debate and the 15th non-solution to the collapse of the Eurozone and probably the entire European Union. The…

"The federal government is expected to pay for all of the riot gear those officers will be wearing. Police departments protecting the last four conventions received about $50 million in grants."…

Portugal has confiscated $7.5 billion of private pension funds (November 2, 2011) as a last ditch effort to meet deficit targets. This is the European model for introducing "austerity" programs: steal the wealth from the producers. This is not the first time that this type of governmental theft has occurred as Neil Boortz outlined last year. I bolded the last paragraph where he warns us of the Obama administration's study to do the same here:…

A glimpse of the future has played out in Houston but the ramifications should not be overlooked. As written in an earlier article, two pastors were arrested for warning people about the evils of homosexuality. There were other sins outlined on their sign but this Biblical warning against homosexuality is found in both the old and new testaments was the…

The following article from the Hill outlines an attempt by "conservatives" to prevent a bailout of the European Union by the IMF. The United States would be responsible for 17.71% of this bailout under old rules. The new rules by the IMF increase this fivefold now and tenfold in the future.

Two…
