August 17, 2009 – Barack Obama’s approval ratings are now in the high 40s.  I predict that by this time next year, they will be in the low 40s or maybe even the high 30s.

A confluence of forces, among them the long anticipated retirement of the Baby Boomers and their consequent burdens on both Social Security & Medicare, the second round of foreclosures from ARMs, commercial real estate foreclosures which are just beginning, the coming and underpublicized Sally Mae defaults, the continued shortfall of tax revenues, the consequent monetization of the deficit and national debt and numerous other problems, will combine to swamp the federal government’s abilities to meet its obligations.

In reaction, the Republicans will win a veto proof majority in Congress but I don’t think they will do what is necessary to correct the insanity.  Besides which, unless the Republicans fight for the complete reestablishment of constitutional principles and terminate about 95% of Washington, D.C., it will all just happen again.

Rioting will break out sometime in 2011 partially due to that and the cooperation of Barack Obama’s goons in A.C.O.R.N., SEIU, AFCSCME, etc.  Obama will declare martial law and move to seize gold, weapons and other private property. Many on Janet Napolitanos’ infamous security risk list will be arrested.  Congress may be suspended as will national elections in 2012.

Martial law will be the Rubicon.  State and local police will cooperate almost without exception.  Few have any concept of the Constitution and generally despise it anyway.  The big question will be whether military leaders choose to obey the reputed Commander-in-Chief or their duty  to the Constitution.  My guess is that there will be a split, leading to true civil war.

This e-mail is going out to an eclectic group, including Democrats, Republicans, libertarians and socialists.  I am sure that there are some who are cluck-clucking about ‘right wing paranoia’.  Of course, there is never any such thing as left wing paranoia or danger from it, since neither Ted Kascynski nor Bernardine Dohrn nor for that matter, Josip Stalin and Mao Zedong, posed any danger whatsoever.  And, of course, Hillary Clinton warned about a vast left wing conspiracy against her husband.

However, assume for the moment that Obama, Janet Napolitano or Eric Holder issues a clearly unconstitutional order to round up dissidents.  Does anyone think that there is no one in the federal or local governments who will carry it out?  My bet is that at least 60% of them will cooperate.

I have been predicting this scenario for about five years now and as the deadline approaches, I am more convinced than ever that it will happen.  It is safe to assume the entire scenario has been discussed at the highest levels of government for years which is why the feds have trained S.W.A.T. teams and also why there is now a Northern Command for the military in violation of Posses Comitatus.  Ruby Ridge and Waco were trial runs.  There will be more in the next 24 months.

No lie can continue forever.  It dies.  Whether it’s with a bang, like National Socialist Germany or a thud like Soviet style socialism, it dies.

The United States of America has lived a Big Lie and it is unraveling before our eyes.  It began with in 1912 when the collectivists scored a Trifecta with the Sixteenth Amendment which permitted the income tax and Seventeenth Amendment which ended direct representation of the states in Congress and the Federal Reserve.  It became the fully institutionalized with Franklin D. Roosevelt.  It expanded in various ways with Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon.  It stalled for a while and has now take accelerated again with the presidencies of William  Clinton, George W. Bush and now with the liar to end all liars, Barack Obama.  It is important to realize that no president has done anything to reverse this trend.

Make no mistake about it, Barack Obama’s philosophy is straight out of Karl Marx’s Manifesto (see below).  His economic principles are Marxist with tinges of the fascism that arose from the first part of #7.  It was that section that provided the basis for Benito Mussolini’s Fascism and Adolf Hitler’s National Socialism.  But there is also not a single provision in the list that he does not endorse nor for that matter does  any Democrat of any standing not endorse, from Ted Kennedy to Nancy Pelosi.

Unless these principles are rejected, lock, stock and barrel and called what they are, communist,  this country is doomed.  It would take courage, the one quality that is sadly lacking among our political leaders.

I urge every reader of this posting to read and absorb each and every one of these provisions and contemplate how outright and insidiously they have become part and parcel of our lives.

The Republicans have one final chance to turn this all around with the sweep that will occur in 2010.  I just don’t think that they will.

From Karl Marx’s Manifesto:
Nevertheless, in most advanced countries, the following will be pretty generally applicable.

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralisation of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralisation of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal liability of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labour in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc, etc.
