DICTATOR N CHIEF?
There is no question investors didn’t like the bill encompassing debt extension, nor the perceived cuts to be made. That was followed by a long awaited fall-in the debt rating of the US by the S&P. At the same time the financial and economic conditions in Europe worsen with Italy officially joining the ranks of near insolvency. These "Events" were accompanied by calls for the president to bypass the Constitution or to use the 14th Amendment to bring about the debt extension. Under a façade of political wrangling as a cover the real impetus for the standoff became obvious. The whole exercise was not only about debt extension that could have been settled in 15 minutes, but about cutting individually paid
for plans, such as Social Security and Medicare, which will eventually lead to a corporatist fascist dictatorship. This super-Congress is very reminiscent of the 13th century “Star Chamber”, the Soviet Politburo, or Adolph Hitler’s 1933 “Enabling Act.” The International Forecaster

OBAMAJOB
Hi, Bob:
I trust you've noticed that the Patriot Act was extended and the extension immediately signed into law while the president was partying in France. The signature was done by an auto signer. This is a flagrant violation of the Constitution and of the president's official duties.
Now here's something you may be interested to know but may not want to print. You must have noticed that things are becoming progressively weirder in DC. My source says that there is a reason. We've had a coup, my source explained. The government is now being run by NORTHCOM and a cabal of bankers centered on Tim Geithner. The legal and organizational structure was created by the Continuity of Government legislation. It enables a very small number of people to run the federal government.
The legislation was passed as a contingency measure in case some disaster took out a large proportion of the Congress or made it impossible for them to get to Washington. However it appears such a situation is not actually required for the law to come into force. The legislation was triggered by the Gulf oil spill, which is how Admiral Thad Allen of the Coast Guard was able to make laws by decree in the affected region. Presumably CoG was activated by a secret executive order.
Only a few lawmakers have been briefed on the situation. The briefing was done in small groups so each little group may think they are they only ones who know. They are told which bills to push and which bills must not pass. They are told to help the nation in her hour of need by taking orders and not talking about it.
President Obama has been seen exchanging pieces of paper with high ranking generals. This bypasses the highly secure comm system that was installed after 911. No record is made of these communications. My source has not seen them but believes that they concern some threat against the United States that is considered imminent and so serious that references to it must be treated with the most extreme secrecy. It's a con. The president apparently does not realize that private exchanges on a subject of this importance enable the generals to lie to him without fear of being contradicted by other officers. He's being played. It's a coup within a coup.
While relatively few people know what has occurred, it is still a fair number and the secret can't be kept for long. A major terrorist attack inside the United States could be used to retroactively justify the invocation of CoG. Should such an event occur, it will be a false flag incident.
I hope this darker possibility is not realized, but it is the logical follow up to the invocation of Continuity of Government.
We are sailing in uncharted waters. Here There Be Dragons.
Warm regards,

EASY RIDER WANTS TOP JOB
Sarah Palin rumbled through Washington on the back of a Harley as she and her family began an East Coast tour Sunday that renewed speculation the former Alaska governor would join the still unsettled Republican presidential contest.
Wearing a black leather jacket and surrounded by a throng of cheering fans, Palin and family members jumped on bikes and joined thousands of other motorcyclists on the Memorial Day weekend ride from the Pentagon to the Vietnam Veterans' memorial. Palin didn't mention politics as she visited with participants, but she smiled broadly when many in the crowd urged her to run.
"How do you wear all this leather and stay cool?" she asked one woman as Palin took off a leather jacket and worked her way through a crush of fans, photographers and reporters.
Palin remains one of the biggest questions for Republicans, who have not yet settled on a frontrunner to challenge President Barack Obama's re-election. While many of Palin's likely rivals have worked to build campaign organizations in early nominating states such as Iowa or New Hampshire, Palin has taken no concrete steps to begin a presidential campaign.
Given Palin's star power, she might be able to wait longer than others. But clock is ticking, the establishment isn't happy with its options and one of the earliest tests of campaign infrastructure, the straw poll in Ames, Iowa, is scheduled for August.
CHINA GETS SECRET EMINENT DOMAIN TREATY
Sources at the United States Embassy in Beijing China have just CONFIRMED to me that the United States of America has tendered to China a written agreement which grants to the People's Republic of China, an option to exercise Eminent Domain within the USA, as collateral for China's continued purchase of US Treasury Notes and existing US Currency reserves!
The written agreement was brought to Beijing by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and was formalized and agreed-to during her recent trip to China.
This means that in the event the US Government defaults on its financial obligations to China, the Communist Government of China would be permitted to physically take inside the USA land, buildings, factories, perhaps even entire cities to satisfy the financial obligations of the US government.
Put simply, the feds have now actually mortgaged the physical land and property of all citizens and businesses in the United States. They have given to a foreign power, their Constitutional power to "take" all of our property, as actual collateral for continued Chinese funding of US deficit spending and the continued carrying of US national debt.
This is an unimaginable betrayal of every man, woman and child in the USA. An outrage worthy of violent overthrow.
I am endeavoring to obtain images or copies of the actual document but in the interim, several different sources both in the US and in China have CONFIRMED this to me.
