President Obama is set to appoint Jeh Johnson to head DHS. Napolitano was a bumbling idiot but this guy is trouble and has already shown his colors working for the DOD. We need an experienced law enforcement officer who has a proven record that has risen thru the ranks or has lead a large law enforcement organization, not some Obama wild card. Quote: Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., criticized Obama for nominating a "loyalist and fundraiser" to lead what he called a "mismanaged" department.
"This is deeply concerning," Sessions said. "This huge department must have a proven manager with strong relevant law enforcement experience, recognized independence and integrity, who can restore this department to its full capability."

Johnson, who left his Pentagon post in 2012, also provided legal guidance in the use of unmanned drones against terrorism suspects overseas, and in the use of military commissions - rather than civilian courts - to try suspects.

During a speech at Britain's Oxford University last year, Johnson said that the nation's war on terrorism should not be endless, and the focus should shift to law enforcement and intelligence operations.

After this past week with the rino's caving AGAIN! The only thing that can save this country is an act of God.
All one can really do is continue prepping, serve God and take care of family.

 

[Piratesailor]

Yeah, I agree. Another top notch Obama appointee. Not.

I tell you sometimes I just feel like just voting with the other side. Especially after the rinos turned on us again. You know the saying watch what you wish for you just may get it.

PS: I read where more people signed up for a one way ticket to Mars then signed up for Obamacare.

I'm not overly religious but to those of you that are waiting for God to come down and save us all just remember, he allowed us the "tools" to do what needs to be done when all else fails, now we just have to get some back bone and do what it takes. We will not vote ourselves out of this mess and those in government sure aren't going to give up their golden positions or do the right thing for the people or the country. If the shtf is coming and we are prepping for that outcome, shouldn't "we the people" be the ones to say when and at least have some control over the crap coming at us at light speed and not let the government ruin things anymore than they have. Does anyone here think the government isn't preparing for bad times, on our dime. How many here think there won't be another "war" / "police action" to keep our troops from coming back home for a reason, and it's not to save the world. Iraq and Afganistan<sp? are a loss in all but words and yet they still drag on and American soldiers die, for what? Hell, the government is trying to sell American military equipment rather than bring it back home, whom is buying it, could it be our enemies? The GOP just sold out the right again, so who are we to vote for anyhow. Oh well, maybe nobama will play nice after the big screwing the people just got!

Another choice on OIlikadingdong's part to help bring the fall of America to me.

The only time it can't get any worse is when you are pushing up dasies. Other than that it can always be worse.

This is an excellent affirmative action pick. Try and find a photo of his wife. Her name is/was Susan M. DiMarco.

Welcome to the third party - soon to be the first.

Libertarians for the USA!

(I'm Libertarian because it would be against the law to blow up DC - and I have neither the knowledge nor equipment it would take)




I see you peaking! you should know that this is a funny post and should not be considered a threat of any kind!

 

[retired guard]

Let's see pretend it's not a war so you can divert funding to subsidized sloth. Let's impute the rights of citizens to enemy combatants. Let's see how long it takes before Gays require affirmative action programs in the military(To overcome past discrimination) Did I miss anything?

Today I joined the Libertarian Party. It many not win many if any elections but I have to vote for someone, and I can't stomach voting for these posers that are in office now.

Do you have a link if enough people join at least the Republican party will know we are tired of them turning on us.

 

[PaulS]

The thing about the Libertarian party is that it is composed of both ex-Democrats and ex-Republicans because it simply takes the federal government out of personal and local issues.
Those issues are for the voters to decide locally leaving the federal government to do what it was originally supposed to do - constitutionally.

Not to mention open borders.

My preference would be to join the tea party if it was a true party it is more of an ideal and not very well organized at this time. I been to one of their meets and wouldn't mind going to more but I never hear where or when they are being held until after they are over.
Tea Party Core Beliefs

According to the Tea Party here are their 15 non-negotiable Core Beliefs.

Illegal aliens are here illegally.
Pro-domestic employment is indispensable.
A strong military is essential.
Special interests must be eliminated.
Gun ownership is sacred.
Government must be downsized.
The national budget must be balanced.
Deficit spending must end.
Bailout and stimulus plans are illegal.
Reducing personal income taxes is a must.
Reducing business income taxes is mandatory.
Political offices must be available to average citizens.
Intrusive government must be stopped.
English as our core language is required.
Traditional family values are encouraged.

Anything else the media says the Tea Party believes is BS

 

[rice paddy daddy]

My first thought when I read about the appointment was "another communist just like the others." And I know nothing about the man, but given Obammy's track record and political philosophy that is exactly what I thought.
And it is a sad thing that thought would even enter my mind.

I have heard other things espoused as Tea Party values by people claiming to be members this I could go for. But how does it relate to shutting down government theatrics we just saw?

Because they are the only republicans that tried to hold the line on spending and the debt ceiling were Tea Party republicans, the rest always just gives in and they will be the only ones that just wont give in to Obama's or the Democrats wishes when it comes to illegals and the open boarder.

 

[Southern Dad]

The Senate should not waste time fighting the confirmation of this or pretty much any other Obama Appointee. Let him have the cabinet that he wants, after all he has to live with them. No matter what he is a lame duck President. He is on his way out. The Republican Party needs to focus on winning elections. In 2014 our concentration needs to be on keeping the House and strengthening our position in the Senate. President Obama has proven that he cannot lead. His first two years in office, the Democrats had control of the House and Senate. They spent all their time shoving a health care bill up our butts. They never thought that they would lose control. In hindsight, do you think they wouldn't have done away with the Debt Ceiling, if they had any idea that they would lose the House?

Those of us prepared can ride this out.

You do know the Libertarian Party does not practice true Libertarian philosophy, right? Any form of government requires some force against the will of someone. Libertarian philosophy is against all such force used against anyone. Therefor libertarians are against drug laws, immigration laws, abortion laws, and a standing military or police force. Libertarians are against prisons, fines and any rules except those by contract and willing compliance.

This post sounds like the typical liberal response to anything they dis agree with!
