Is it already too late? Excellent letter

  From: John  Porter
To: Americans  everywhere
 
I was sitting at my  keyboard halfway through my writing a letter to  you about how Barack Obama was fulfilling his  pledge to "Transform America" by "Changing the  fundamentals of America", so that our government  would become the plantation, he the owner, and  we the slaves, when this article by Steve McCann  appeared in my in box. After checking it for  accuracy, and finding it so, I put my writing on  hold and here present it to you, for I could not  say it better.
 
    
Obama's  Second Term Transformation Plans  

       

The 2012  election has often been described as the most  pivotal since 1860. This  statement is not  hyperbole. If Barack  Obama is re-elected the United States will never  be the same, nor will it be able to re-capture  its once lofty status as the most dominant  nation in the history of mankind.  

The  overwhelming majority of Americans do not  understand that Obama's first term was  dedicated to putting in place executive  power to enable him and the administration  to fulfill the campaign promise of "transforming  America " in his second term regardless of which  political party controls Congress. That is  why his re-election team is virtually ignoring  the plight of incumbent or prospective  Democratic Party office holders.  

The most significant  accomplishment of Obama's first term is to make  Congress irrelevant. Under the myopic and  blindly loyal leadership of Harry Reid and Nancy  Pelosi, the Democrats have succeeded in creating  an imperial and, in a second term, a potential  dictatorial presidency.  

During  the first two years of the Obama administration  when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both  Houses of Congres s and the media was in an Obama  worshipping stupor, a myriad of laws were  passed and actions taken which transferred  virtually unlimited power to the executive  branch 

The birth  of multi-thousand page laws was not an  aberration.This  tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled  by Obama appointees would have sole discretion  in interpreting vaguely written laws and  enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they  and not Congress would subsequently  write.   

For example, in the 2,700 pages of  
ObamaCare  there are more than 2,500 references to the  Secretary of Health and Human  Services.There are  more than 700 instances when he or she is  instructed that they "shall" do something and  more than 200 times when they "may" take at  their sole discretion some form of regulatory  action. On 139 occasions, the law mentions that  the "Secretary determines." In essence one  person, appointed by and reporting to the  president, will be in charge of the health care  of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully  operational in 2014. 

The  
same is  true in the 2,319 pages of the Dodd-Frank  Financial Reform Act which  confers nearly unlimited power on various  agencies to control by fiat the nation's  financial, banking and investment sectors.  The bill  also creates new agencies, such as the Consumer  Financial Protection Bureau, not subject to any  oversight by Congress.This  overall < span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: purple; font-size: 14pt; ">process  was repeated numerous times with other  legislation all with the intent of granting  unfettered power to the executive  branch  controlled Barack Obama and his radical  associates. 

Additionally, the Obama  administration has, through its unilaterally  determined rule making and regulatory powers,  created laws out of whole cloth. The  Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily  basis issues new regulations clearly out of  their purview in order to modify and change&n bsp; environmental laws previously passed and to  impose a radical green agenda never approved by  Congress. The same is true of the Energy and  Interior Departments among many others.   

None of  these extra-constitutional actions have been  challenged by Congress. The left in America   knows this usurpation of power is nearly  impossible to reverse unless stopped in its  early stages.  

It is clearly the mindset of this  administration and its appointees that Congress  is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after  they were able to take full advantage of the  useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House  and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate  in the current Congress.   

Additionally, Barack  Obama knows after his re-election a Republican  controlled House and Senate will not be able to  enact any legislation to roll back the power  previously granted to the Executive Branch or  usurped by them. His veto will not be overridden  as there will always be at least 145 Democratic  members of the House or 34 in the Senate in  agreement with or intimidated by an  administration more than willing to use Chicago   style political tact ics.  

The  stalemate between the Executive and Legislative  Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack  Obama and his fellow leftists. 

The  most significant power Congress has is the  control of the purse-strings
 as all  spending must be approved by them. However,  once  re-elected, Barack Obama, as  confirmed by his willingness to do or say  anything and his unscrupulous re-election  tactics, would not  only threaten government shutdowns but  would deliberately withhold payments to those  dependent on government support as a means of  intimidating and forcing a Republican controlled  Congress to surrender to his demands,  thus  neutering their ability to control the  administration through spending  constraints.  

Further,  this administration has shown contempt for the  courts by ignoring various court  orders, e.g. the  Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium,  as well  as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by  Congress. The Eric  Holder Justice Department has become the epitome  of corruption as part of the most dishonest and  deceitful administration in American history. In  a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and  his minions will become more b latant as he will  not have to be concerned with re-election.   

Who will be there to enforce the  rule of law, a Supreme Court ruling or the  Constitution? No one. Barack Obama and his  fellow-travelers will be unchallenged as they  run roughshod over the American people.  

Many  Republicans and conservatives  dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as  the nominee for president are instead  focused  on re-taking the House and Senate.  That  goal, while worthy and necessary, is meaningless  unless Barack Obama is defeated. The nation  is not dealing with a person of character and  integrity but someone of single-minded purpose  and overwhelming narcissism.Judging  by his actions, words and deeds during his first  term, he does not intend to work with  Congress either  Republican or Democrat in his second term  but  rather to force his radical agenda on the  American people through  the power he has usurped or been granted.  

The  governmental structure of the United States was  set up by the founders in the  hope that over the years only those people of  high moral character and integrity would assume  the reins of power. However, knowing that was  not always possible, they dispersed power over  three distinct and independent branches as a  check on each other. 

What they  could not imagine is the surrender and  abdication of its constitutional duty by the  preeminent governmental branch, the Congress, to  a chief executive devoid of  any character or integrity coupled with a  judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the  law when the chief executive ignores them  

Conservatives,  Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt  Romney must come to grips with this moment in  time and their historical role in denying Barack  Obama and his minions their ultimate goal. All  resources must be directed at that end-game and  not merely controlling Congress and the various  committee chairmanships.

I would  add but 6 words to those above mentioned,  Conservatives, Libertarians, the Republican  Party and Mitt Romney, to say "and we the  American people also", must come to grips with  this moment in time and our role in denying  Barack Obama his life long goal of  "transforming" us into his slaves working on his  government plantation.

Please forward  this to all you can, maybe together we can save  America for ourselves and those who will follow  a fter us. 

May God bless America .

They only have the illusion of power, it's all on paper, it's not real. All the people have to do is stay at home and do nothing, don't pay taxes, only buy what you need to survive, don't buy gas, just stay at home and look after each other. Without the peoples support they can not survive. The people who run the world are sociopaths, they have no empathy and they just don't care about anyone but themselves, in the end they will fight each other to get to be top dog, bet on it, that is their nature.

Yes, we know Obama's agenda.

Being a thief who is backed by the new world order Bush family, I wonder what Romney's agenda will be. Can he fit all of America's money into those offshore accounts ?

Forget the offshore accounts! They're legal. I'd have one, too, if I had any money, and I'll bet you'd also have one. Why pay the bankers to CHARGE YOU for keeping your money? The offshore accounts are nothing but a diversion to keep you from focusing on the real, important issues, like having a criminal Marxist and all his minions in the WH. THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE ABOUT REPUBLICANS, DEMS, OR LIBERTARIANS. THIS IS A MATTER OF SURVIVAL AS A NATION. DO YOU GET IT????? WAKE UP!!!!!
