Where there's this much smoke there's probably a wildfire.  

Most discussions of one the political pronouncements, philosophy or actions listed  below are met with the response, “Oh, so what!”.   






However, taken together,(the Gestalt) the facts paint a very obvious distinct picture of the extreme Socialist direction the Obama administration is trying to take our country.


Detectives say ,"follow the clues". Why aren't the clues below
enough to convince anyone about Obama's  political agenda? How many more do you need??? Every week there are more!!

 
Please Keep reading, or skip to the Economic Collapse Page, then read this Introduction, as well as other pages of this website. We’re fairly confident you’ll want to.

Here we goooo....!: 
 

   
Oh! it’s only an expression that “we need to transform the fundamentals of the government”, Obama. So what!  

Oh! Obama’s Finance Reform Bill will allow an administration official to have the power to control any U.S. business. He will able to fire it’s management, have the government take it over- this all without due process. So what!

Oh! Obama  has not suspended ( as many Presidents have) the Jones Laws which prohibit  non-Americans from working here, thus we are not able to accept the technology and experience in  they have in dealing with oil spills. So what!


Oh! Michelle Obama on Child Nutrition " We can't just leave it up to the parents." What? New Food laws are on the way with associated price increases on products not approved by the new Food Czar. So what!

Oh! By suspending offshore drilling he is A) causing tens of thousands of people to be unemployed, and B) will see a significant rise in gasoline prices. So what!

Oh! The Chief of Staff, the "gatekeeper" to the President of the United States, has recently said the First Amendment to the Constitution is highly overrated.So what!

Oh! It’s just “we need a National force that is as well funded, just a strong and powerful as he Military”, Obama. He said that?
        
Oh! It’s only a Stimulus Bill costing at least a Trillion dollars! So what!
 
Oh! It’s just a Cap and Trade Bill, -based by the way on disputed science-that will cost Trillions of dollars! So what!
 
Oh! It’s A National Health Care System that will cost a Trillion Dollars (remember he pushed for it to passed by August 7, 2009). By the way Senate Majority Leader Reid recently said it will probably cost more like Two Trillion Dollars (accuracy of government financial forecasts-  When Medicare was passed estimates were that it will cost $12 Billion by 1990 - it cost $468 Billion)!!

Oh! In many surverys of Doctors 45% say if the Obamacre becomes law they will quit. Add to this that within 10 years there will more then 30 million new Americans on the rolls, therefore if true, the waiting time to get medical treatment will be absolutely unacceptable! So what!

Oh! The nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation reported that the House version Section 7203 and 7201 of the health care bill specifies that those who don't buy health insurance and do not pay the fine of about 2.5% of their income for failing to do so can face a penalty of up to five years in prison! Nah Can't be!

Oh! It's  only government  control of all the water in the country So what!

Oh! With the passage of the US House of Representatives’ Obamacare package, America has moved closer to the US Marxist (formerly Democrat) Party’s totalitarian control over the American people and 1/6 of our economy. It is all too likely that if this  2700 page behemoth bill  (as well as the 1500 page Stimlus bill and the 2000 page Cap&Trade bill) is passed, by both Houses of Congress, government may soon be in control of 4 out of every 5 dollars Americans are still allowed to “earn!!” So what!
 
Oh! Some of the most egregious parts of Obamacare are:
A) The"iron"grip it will give the government over our lives.
B) At least 20 new different types of taxes. Forget the promise of no new tax for those making under $250,000.
C) Jail -if you do not comply ie. not paying the penalties for not being covered. 
D) "Quality Adjusted Care" -deciding how long one lives and the  quality of life during that time (they already are starting with the "suggestion that women need less Mammograms and PAP Smears!).
E) The general incompetence of the government and it's obvious inability  to run this exceedingly complex program. Put another way: replacing  an imperfect, but pretty good health care system with the ULTIMATE bureaucratic nightmare.
F) The astronomical cost of a Trillion Dollars. This is the government's estimate, and they consistently way understate the reality.
G) Cutting Medicare by $500 Billion (and there will, within ten years be an additional $30 Million more people on Medicare).
H) There are many more. Really- many more!

Oh! "Barack Obama is pushing the limits of executive authority and brazenly changing the political rules of the game!". He is ruling by the Command Control concept. He doesn't seem to be concerned about circumventing  the Constitution. So what! (Newsmax.com)

Oh! If passed we start paying for Obamacare now -for 10 years-, but the program does not begin until 2014. It's like buying a car and making payments for four years then you get the car. Who would do this? As well, the money collected for these four years in theory are saved in a "special fund" just like Social Security.  The funds collected for  Special Social Security aren't and never have been in a "special fund" There is not rational  reason to believe that the same will not be true for Obamacare money. So what!

Oh! The  figures being branded about the cost of Obamacare go from about $900 billion to $2.5 Thousand Billion ($2.5 Trillion) dollars. However, I have not heard anyone adding the inflation factor to this! So what!

Oh! the same folks that had great difficulty getting a  proper vote in the 08 primaries- one of-the simplest of political processes,and are extremely late in getting the Swine flu vaccine generally available have the ego or simply not care are that the chances of them running the amazingly complex Obamacare program are in my opinion are about o.oooo6 . This is the best estimate.
So what!
      
Oh! He’s raising taxes by “indirect” methods, a few dozen in the Obamacare bill alone, this despite what he promised. So what!
 
Oh! The Speaker Nancy Pelosi-  is talking about a Value Added Tax (V.A.T. a tax on everything on top of all other taxes). So what!

Oh! Presidential Cabinet Members from the private sector from Teddy Roosevelt to George Bush have averaged about 40% of Cabinet posts.
President Eisenhower hired the most at 58%. - FDR 50%.  Overall Democrats averaged about 38%. The lowest, yes, you guessed it, is Obama with only 7% of his Cabinet coming from the private sector. Yet shocking as it is, his goal is to overhaul the  very business structure of America  with Cabinet members, few of which have had no, or very little actual business experience in the private sector ! Put another way, they as a group have never had “real” jobs! So what!
 
Oh! They are most likely going to legalize 12 million illegal immigrants. So what!

Oh! At the rate we are going, it probably will come to this. In London they have 2000 cameras in rubbish pails to measure waste disposal. If they have them in rubbish pails they probably have them. in..... other places  Think about it! So what!
 
Oh! The White House criticism of Fox News. So what!
 
Oh! Obama has suggested a youth (Brown Shirts? It can’t happen here) movement directed by the government (serve.org?). So what!

Oh! The “ Stimulus money” - Only a small percentage of it has been spent. The balance is in a “slush fund” to essentially be used at the President’s discretion. Most of the allocated money (your money) has gone to Democratic districts thus giving the constitutes of those districts a “reason” to vote for a Democrat in 2010 (the chance for more political power). The only real hiring has been in government hiring, at least 190,000, a gain of 9.8%. Any “evidence” of the Stimulus money helping lower private sector unemployment is that- it hasn’t. So what!
 
Oh! It’s only a takeover of the auto industry. So What!
 
Oh! It’s only a takeover of he insurance industry- through Obamacare. So what!
 
Oh! It’s only a control of major investment firms. So what!
 
Oh! It’s only taking over student loans. So what!

Oh! Bank takeovers. So what!

Oh! The use of Eminent Domain to take private property.
The original intent was only to use this power for the public good - ,i.e., as to build a freeway. Now it is being used to take property for commercial use ,i.e., to build a shopping center. In other words they can take your house for whatever. So what!

Oh! It's only government  control of 1/6 the of the country's economy. So what!
 
Oh! Obama supports giving the Unions more and more power, making it  easier for unions to convert non- union shops to union.
Andy Stern President of SEIU the fastest growing union (international) in America has visited the President an unprecedented 22 times in the last eight months, some of the meetings were private (Stern and Obama).  Could this be the fact that the unions having spent in excess of a $60 million for Obama's campaign are calling in their "marker" to get  the Card Check bill passed. This bill in part will:
end the secret ballot vote for workers on unionization. "Open votes" disregard a cornerstone of American basic rights- the secret ballot.
This will force millions of new workers to pay dues or be fired. [ Funny way of showing support for the working class.]
 He will very likely "Pack" federal agencies and courts with union stooges. So what!

Oh!  FCC’s Grassley wants to “stifle” Talk Radio. So what!
 
Oh! Obama is criticizing individual citizens- Rush Limbaugh  Glen Beck, Sean Hannity et al. So what!
 
Oh! The administrative branch wants to Control Census taking. So what!
 
Oh!  Senate Bill 773 allows, Barack Obama to silence his dissenters directly -- by ordering a shutdown of all Americans’ access to the Internet. Further, a White House-declared "emergency "mandates that private-sector networks only be managed by government-licensed "cybersecurity professionals". Note the quote marks.
 [And you all were concerned about the Patriot Act  allowing invasion of our privacy].So what!
 
Oh!  The President has over 31 Czars at last count,  who have vaguely defined power, and who are accountable only to the President, most of the Czars, have not been confirmed by the Senate, nor do they need to be. So what!
 
Oh! Obama consistently “bad mouths” his country especially when he is overseas and when he spoke at the U.N. He praises our enemies and disrespects our allies. He bows to the Saudi King and the Japanese Emperor. So what!

Oh! Have you noticed that all Obamas's official and most unofficial photographs are with the his chin up, gazing upward as if he is a conquering hero. No ego this man! Check out the photo of Mussolini at the bottom of the Introduction page. Notice Mussolini's  favorite pose.Ok, in this case really, So what ( Yeah, but you know, it still makes you wonder.)
 
Oh!! Began developing an“enemies list” (the Whitehouse "fishy talk" e-mail attempting this only 5 months after his inauguration ). So what!
       
Oh! Obamacare will allow government to withdraw  money from our  personal bank accounts. So what!

Oh! .Obamacare will not only allow, but in many cases require  government  officials to evaluate how children are being brought up.
Referring to section 1904 of the House bill (edited), which provides grants to States to support "voluntary, evidence-based government home visitation programs for pregnant women and for families with pre-school age children. The "reason" for this provision is to improve the "well-being, health and development their children.”. Really!

Oh!  There are schoolchildren being taught songs of praise about Obama.So what!
 
Oh!  It seems our government is “easing up on punishment and treatment for Terrorists.  So what!
 
Oh! The ramifications of Obamacare will very likely be irrevocable and incompatible with our present government and thereby our way of life. Nah -really!
 
Oh! Excessive government hiring is already over 9%  (200,000). So what!
 
Oh! Democrats want to, and in fact do conduct meetings about various important bills in “secret” – no loyal opposition( or Blue Dog Democrats) allowed- Government opaqueness not transparency as promised So what!
 
Oh! At the recent G-20 meeting he basically started the erosion of our Declaration of Independence by actions contradicting the very name of the document by giving foreign governments a measure of control over our economic policies. Really!
 
Oh! Obamas’s policies and political direction are incredibly close to being a close version of the Communist Manifesto- read it, it’s on the Economic Collapse page. Really? Go on, Read It!
 
Oh! Obama has already spent, or is planning to spend more then of all our Administrations (43) combined since George Washington. So what!
 
Oh! Serious consideration of our changing the dollar for a global currency. In fact, at the meeting about Climate Control a serious proposal on the table would have required many concessions from the United States, the most egregious is our being required to give 2% of our GNP to "poorer" countries. Can he?

Oh! Considering agreeing to Transnationalism whereby an American can be charged and prosecuted for a crime committed in another country by a third country. He can’t do that –Can he?
 
Oh! While he was growing up in Hawaii his mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, was a strict Communist. So what!
 
Oh!  Obama hired and/or tried to get appointed many candidates that have questionable ethics. In fact many of them are now in important government positions. Of course almost all are Leftists. It sure seems like being  a Leftist  is one of the many qualifiers to be an "inner circle" guy.  These are the people making American policy. So what!
 
Oh! Every five weeks our government of Democrats-  the controlling party-spends over $100,000,000! So what!
 
Oh! Having us pay an Global tax. Won’t happen. [Really?]
 
Oh!  He “accepted", despite his promise during the campaign the over 8 billion dollars of “pork”- that's about 115 per Congressman-in the Stimulus Bill (another little stress on the economy) So what!    
 
Oh! We do not have government transparency, what we do have is government opaqueness. Not only are all Republicans and many Democrats excluded form important decision making meetings, but the request for the public to be privy to a bill 72 hours before a vote was vetoed. So what! Oh did I mention this fact before so let me say ,so what!
      
Oh! The China Investment Corporation (CIC) has been welcomed to buy $300,000,000,000 worth of U. S. trophy real estate. So what!
 
Oh! Obama wants to amend or eliminate the Patriot Act, but he wants to be able to shut down the Internet at his discretion. So what!
 
Oh! Bernanke of the Federal Reserve will enact a policy whereby banks would monitor and report any increase in salaries ( I assume of major players?). So what!
 
Oh!  Obama  broke our deal and ended our Missile Defense Program with Poland and Czechoslovakia. So what!
 
Oh! That Obama is waiting until 2010 to spent the bulk of the Stimulus Money, about $620 Billion. Could it be to give the economy a boost on an election year?  (A Tip of The Hat to Rush L.). So what! [ Note: It didn't work]
 
Oh!  It’s Ok that a Leftist organization (Tides) essentially wrote the exorbitant Stimulus Bill, and  adding insult to injury to this egregious  behavior few of our “Representatives” read before it’s Passage. So our  "Representatives"are not only not reading the laws they vote on, but do not necessarily write them. Think about it! Is there any meaning to the oath to which they swear.?  So what!
 
Oh!  It’s OK  that almost all who surround him – Secretaries . Czars, Department Heads, his closest advisers etc. are Left wing or Hard Left Wing, with a with a smattering  of Centrists. No kidding!
 
Oh! His friends and mentors and generally all his associates and associations from childhood until the present ( with a brief hiatus during the Primaries) have  been and are  politically Left or Hard Left. So what!
 
Oh! To get the necessary pressure  to "inspire" the Congress  to pass Obamacare the President essentially "bribed" three major organizations - AARP , AMA  and the drug industry with very generous financial incentives. Just two of the various  downsides  (where we get screwed) to the public will be the continuing  high cost of drugs and the increased cost and diminished  service to seniors  concerning "gap" health insurance. Therefore the Administration is taking away benefits from seniors to give it back. This only makes sense if you understand the whole health thing is not about health, it is about power. So what?
 
Oh!  Obama's communications Director Anita Dune (now gone) extolled the virtues of Mother Teresa (fine) then extolled, a “great” leader of the 20th Century who only  murdered about 30 million people-Mao tse Tung. Yes, “Virginia” I got  your point, but how about using, say George Washington as a wee bit better example. So what!

Oh!  It’s really OK that the government in the person of our” Pay Czar”, is not only not allowing the CEO of Bank of America to be paid  in the coming year, but wants him to return what he was paid this year.
Further, Massachusetts Congressmen Barney Frank, the Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee (which oversees the entire financial services industry including the securities, insurance banking, and housing industries) has said that maybe we should be able to limit all  salaries whether or not the company that pays them has,or is taking government money. He can't do that can he? It looks like he will. [Again we  do have those  pesky 9th &10th Amendments that should prevent this.]
 
Oh! He won the Nobel Peace Prize not withstanding the fact he was only  President for ten days when the deadline for applications closed. So what! (this is a legitimate  "So what")

 Oh! Obama's major procrastination on deciding whether to send more troops to Afghanistan. Either he is indecisive or it's  the politics having to do with the Nov 09 election. Either way our troops are dying!  Please don't say that he needs 4 months to think about it. Remember he was the one who took about "8 seconds" to call for a vote on the Stimulus Bill, and...and wanted the National Health Care Plan passed by August 7, 2009! Don't know what to say!

Oh! the Obama Administration had been trying to "excommunicate"  Fox News from the world of news organizations. Got to hand it to him, the man has serious serious hubris. Wow!
 
Oh! the "Cap" in the Cap & Trade Bill (a Bill based on hysterical questionable science) if passed, "the Cap" will be decided by unelected governments officials. This can, and will have a major impact on industry and "a significant increase in energy  costs", Obama. Just a bit more government control. These guys are crafty. So what!

Oh! The Obama administration in the person of  Surveillance Czar Nalpolitano is currently trying to resurrect the failed REAL ID Act.” named "Dangerous ID".  The Act passed in 2005, establishes a de facto National Identification System, and opens the doors for Federal biometric tracking of every American citizen (the medical chip?). The states have not complied, so of course Obama and his belief in traditional freedom will try to correct that ,i.e., “ram it down our throats”

 Stop Wait!… there’s more, the reality might be much worse -- an INTERNATIONAL Identification System. Say what!! Nah.

Oh! Now the Piece' de Resistance (actually there are a lot of them). This truly falls in the incomprehensible category even for Barack Hussein Obama. In a 1977 book co-authored by Obama's Science Czar John Holdren, the man now firmly in control of science policy in this country,he wrote that:
• Women could be forced to abort their pregnancies, whether they wanted to or not;
• The population at large could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into the nation's drinking water or in food;
• Single mothers and teen mothers should have their babies seized from them against their will and given away to other couples to raise;
• People who "contribute to social deterioration" (i.e. undesirables) "can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility" -- in other words, be compelled to have abortions or be sterilized.
• A transnational "Planetary Regime" should assume control of the global economy and also dictate the most intimate details of Americans' lives -- using an armed international police force.
Holdren has recently said that our Constitution does not give us the right to have as many children as we choose.
He obviously chooses to ignore the fact that the Constitution does not give us any rights . It's sole purpose is to protect our rights from being taken away by people exactly like him!!
Think about the fact that our President hired this insane despicable person to be one of his key advisers.  I think we can reasonably assume that Obama shares at least some of Holdren's beliefs. Think about it, and the fact that Obama has over 30 more Czars, many of them Far Left believers.

Think about what you've just read; even just this last paragraph!! Really Think About It!

This page describes the "Political Reasons" for a Left takeover, read page 1984 which describes the "Tools" that have and can be use to achieve the same purpose.

=================================================  
Considering the above, I’m not sure the expression “where’s there’s smoke there’s fire”, even comes close to covering our opinion that  the Obama  Administration's agenda is a Far Left Socialist Government.     

There are ONLY about 50 “items”,so what’s the sweat?  Paraphrasing O’Reilly, there’s growing evidence that the Left and even the “Far” Left have the Presidents “ear”.
                           YOU THINK??

I’d say, they have both “ears”, and what’s in between- probably from the time he was a child with avowed Communist Frank Marshall Davis as his Mentor.

        Political Reckless, not Political Correctness
       
        The Ego Trio= Obama, Pelosi and Reid
       
         The Opium factor. Morphine is to Opium as

          more. The development of Morphine was necessary 
          for the syntheses of Heroin. Yes,as bad as
