I think Barry and Michele Obama would be great dinner guests.  Our kids could play together and the dogs could sniff each other while we talk of being great citizens over a glass of wine, except that it of course will never happen.  Whatever questions we might ask, surely they would be answered in the same scripted response we have come to expect from The Obama’s.  Perhaps statements like, “I plead the fifth on that issue,” or, “I’ll have to talk to my attorney” would be dominate the conversation while we ate sweet potato pie. 

Having been served with numerous lawsuits regarding his citizenship I find it the epitome of irony that neither Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama https://www.iardc.org/ldetail.asp?id=514560103 nor her husband, Barry Baraq Mohammad Hussein Dunham Sotero Obama, Jr https://www.iardc.org/ldetail.asp?id=318304718 are currently authorized to practice law.    Obama worked nine years at Davis Miner Barnhill & Galland, a 12-lawyer firm that specialized in helping develop low-income housing. The firm’s top partner, Allison S. Davis, was, and is, a member of the Chicago Plan Commission, appointed by Mayor Daley. Davis was also a friend of Tony Rezko. Rezko’s who was found guilty on 16/24 felony counts was denied his appeal for a new trial on Nov. 13, 2008. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chicago/chi-rezko-trial-blotternov13,0,6810451.story 

“The senator, relatively inexperienced in this kind of work, was assigned to tasks appropriate for a junior lawyer,” according to an e-mail from Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs. “These tasks would have included reviewing documents, collecting corporate organizational documents, and drafting corporate resolutions.”  http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/353829,CST-NWS-rez23.article  I suppose that after nine years of secretarial type duties one would certainly be frustrated and pursue a political career instead.  

With cases pending in the Courts seeking to certify his eligibility, they have hired the Washington Law Firm Sandler, Reiff & Young.  One of the lawyers filing motions to dismiss was Joe Sandler, formerly the in-house council at DNC.  Maybe his name rings a bell?  Joe Sandler, esq., is also a legal representative for CAIR- Council for American Islamic Relations.  https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/10/20/sandler-vs-berg-for-obama-citizenship/

Case after case has been dismissed in all jurisdictions against Obama, with few exceptions. Most notably, Berg vs Obama and Martin vs Hawaii.  The lesser known case is Donofrio vs Nina Mitchell Wells, New Jersey Secretary of State asking her to certify Obama’s eligibility on the ballot.  http://origin.www.supremecourtus.gov/docket/08a407.htm

No. 08A407  
Title:
Leo C. Donofrio, Applicant
v.
Nina Mitchell Wells, New Jersey Secretary of State
Docketed:  
Lower Ct: Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division
  Case Nos.: (AM-0153-08T2application)
~~~Date~~~  ~~~~~~~Proceedings  and  Orders~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nov 3 2008 Application (08A407) for stay pending the filing and disposition of a petition for a writ of certiorari, submitted to Justice Souter.
Nov 6 2008 Application (08A407) denied by Justice Souter.

Donofrio claims that SCOTUS clerk, Danny Bickell did not present his Stay Application to Justice Thomas, when it appears that he had every right to do so –“Rule 22(1) clearly states that any application addressed to a particular Justice will be filed with the clerk and transmitted promptly to the Justice in question if that Justice has authority to grant the relief being sought,” Donofrio said. “Now, while I didn’t expect Justice Souter to grant the application, Rule 22(4) states that denial of a stay allows for resubmission to a Justice of your choice, and I was ready to resubmit it to Justice Thomas.”  http://www.americasright.com/2008/11/second-eligibility-related-action.html  Donofrio’s case history and updates can be found at Donofrio’s blog http://www.blogtext.org/naturalborncitizen/topic/8700.html

Lest Attorney Andy Martin be out of the lime light, instead of focusing his energy on his own case and search for Obama’s vaulted birth certificate, has written a letter to the PA Supreme Court Disciplinary Board to to investigate the conduct of attorney Philip J. Berg. http://contrariancommentary.wordpress.com/2008/11/12/anti-obama-attorney-philip-j-berg-faces-disciplinary-complaint/  “There have been a lot of questions, and criticism, swirling around Mr. Berg’s behavior,” Martin stated. So much for mutual respect.

Berg sought to disbar and remove Justices”… on the 1st anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Bush vs. Gore which “anointed” Bush as President writes to three (3) U.S. Supreme Court Justices, Justices O’Connor, Scalia and Thomas requesting that they agree to “Voluntary Disbarment” for failing to “recuse” themselves in said case and other violations. http://www.votermarch.org/BergPet.htm 

Another lawsuits is rumored from Vice presidential Candidate Wiley S. Drake Sr.  asking to de-certify Barack Obama because he has refused to release proof of being a Natural Born Citizen, thereby disqualifying Obama in his bid for the Office http://obambi.wordpress.com/2008/11/03/vice-presidential-candidate-wiley-s-drake-sr-to-file-in-court-asking-to-de-certify-barack-obama-because-he-has-refused-to-release-proof-of-being-a-natural-born-citizen-thereby-disqualifying-obama-i/ but I have yet to see any actual legal proceeding on the net.  

 I am proud of these Americans who continue to question President Elect Obama’s citizenship and protect our Constitution. It reminds me of Michelle Obama proclaiming that for “the first time” in her adult life,” she was proud of America, as she spoke during a rally to support her husband’s presidential bid.  http://www.bostonherald.com/news/national/politics/2008/view.bg? and http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/02/20/maybe-they-dont-want-to-change/?ex=1361250000&en=9d564dff2b7ab130&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss  Stan Hewitts Town Hall has the audio here http://hughhewitt.townhall.com/MediaPlayer/AudioPlayer.aspx?ContentGuid=9e3a08aa-ad84-46cf-8492-6aff289bca42 

How proud both Michelle and Barry as former attorney’s must be, to be so entrenched in Court proceedings through out the land.  In her thesis she wrote how she is determined to “utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit [the black] community first and foremost.”   http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/221458,CST-NWS-mich21.article.

Her thesis “Princeton Educated Blacks and The Black Community” is available courtesy of  http://obamaprincetonthesis.wordpress.com/

It’s too bad the Barack family is not using all of its resources to give benefit to all Americans.  Obama himself could end the charades in showing us his official, vaulted, original birth certificate before the family, Obama’s mother-in-law, and the new dog move into the White House and he takes the Oath of Office.  Obama is not going to show anyone anything unless a court of law demands it and as I mentioned in a previous post, he can just take the fifth and not incriminate himself.  https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/11/12/obama-could-plead-the-5th-amendment-on-citizenship/

I wonder if any one will question the citizenship of the dog?

Lest anyone need reminding, “We are a government of the people, by the people, for the people.”   Abraham Lincoln in his Gettysburg Address, 1863.

I do not wear tinfoil on my head and I voted for That (Other) One.  I will have to swallow my pride and support the office when he puts his hand on the Bible [and it better not be the Koran] when taking the Oath of Presidency but, I need to know now, that I am standing behind man and a country that is being led by an honest to God, American citizen that meets the qualifications of the office regarding his citizenship status – and the U.S. Supreme Court has asked the same.  

At  http://myiq2xu.wordpress.com/2008/10/11/who-gives-a-fuck-about-obamas-birth-certificate/ the author asks, ” Who gives a f^^k about Obama’s birth certificate?” and says in the post “in regards to his birth certificate, it is not relevant to Barack Obama’s qualifications for President.”  and that “accurate answers to the questions are still none of our business.” 

It is my business and it better be everyone’s business to know the citizenship of our Presidency, I after all have standing and want accurate answers.  I fail to see how circumventing the U.S. Constitution’s clear indicators of qualification for the Office is an acceptable reason to have voted for him or support him and until such proof is offered that, beyond any reasonable doubt, in a court of law, and specifically the US Supreme Court of Law, that he is a U.S. Citizen. 

…..directly under Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 of the Constitution—to require that anyone standing for “the Office of President” must verify his eligibility for that position, at least when serious allegations have been put forward that he is not eligible, and he has otherwise refused to refute those allegations with evidence that should be readily available if he is eligible. That “Case[ ]” is one the Constitution itself defines. And the Constitution must be enforceable in such a “Case[ ]” in a timely manner, by anyone who cares to seek enforcement, because of the horrendous consequences that will ensue if it is flouted.  http://www.newswithviews.com/Vieira/edwin84.htm Edwin Viera, Jr. 

Acceptance of web pages like factcheck as providing factual information are suspect at best, especially when there Obama has ties to the Annenberg political Group with long standing ties to William Ayers.  http://www.factcheck.org/  I can write it here on the web and make official notification to the world that I am the King of my back 50, but that doesn’t make it so -although my children think it to be true.  Obama’s own web site displays his COLB- certificate of live birth but that doesn’t make it so either.  In a court of law, only physical evidence is admitted.  Thanks again to Al Gore for inventing the Internet.  rofl.

A week after the election and the silence of MSM- Main Stream Media in regard to Obama’s citizenship lawsuits is beyond reprehensible and leads one to ask, is there really freedom of the press?  In the media’s defense, if they tick off the President Elect, they will not have any more questions to ask or scoops on the Obama Administration.  At That One’s first press conference, he called on numerous media groups but failed to call on a reporter from Fox News.  Imagine that.  http://current.com/items/89510124/fox_news_snubbed_at_obama_s_first_press_conference.htm 

Neither Berg or Martin have made many headlines, let alone the case of Dr. T.B Bradley, Psy, D.,  who formally applied to the Court for leave to intervene in Case 2:08-cv-04083-RBS Document 16 filed October 7, 2008 http://nationalwriterssyndicate.com/index2.php?option=com_content&do_pdf=1&id=767  or the suit by Leo Donofrio against the New Jersey Secretary of State who “assumed” Omaba as qualified.   http://www.blogtext.org/naturalborncitizen/ It claims “To be a naturally born citizen, this is the issue.  You are either “born” one or you are not, and if not, you can’t be President.  The 14th Amendment can make one a “citizen” but not a “natural born citizen”.  This is the backbone of my case.  Had the US legislature, and the States who ratified the 14th Amendment, sought to bestow “natural born citizen” status, then the 14th Amendment would say so, but it does not.  It confers “citizen” status, and only if the person is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. ” Find more in the UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT Docket #: 08A407. and at http://www.democratic-disaster.com//index.php?topic=286.0  He references the Movant Papers which are based on a Constitutional issue, that it is proper for the US Supreme Court to review the case http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2129827/posts and it all may end up on Justice Clarence Thomas’ lap.

Should Obama make the Presidential “Oath or Affirmation” of office in full knowledge that he is not a natural born Citizen he will have committed a crime of perjury for being ineligible for the Office -Article II, Section 1, Clause 8) since he cannot “faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States.”  “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_Two_of_the_United_States_Constitution#Clause_6:_Vacancy_and_Disability

Besides having committed perjury it may very well be proved that he usurped the Office of Presidency which would be a criminal act under Title 18, United States Code, Section 242.  http://www.fbi.gov/hq/cid/civilrights/statutes.htm#section242  http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/crim/242fin.php  thus having deprived citizens the right to vote for whom, at the time of the election, constituencies assumed Obama had met the qualification to become President that is secured and protected by the Constitution and laws of the U.S.   Did Obama deprive me of my guaranteed right?  The Courts will tell.

Where is his birth certificate?  Here we have a President Elect that lays claim that he is going to share as much information as he can with the American people and yet, he can not share his simple birth certificate with out being forced by a court of law.  Taking it all the way to The Supreme Court, Justice Davis Souter has requested that Obama provide unmitigated proof of citizenship to the court by December 1, 2008, in the case Berg v Obama.  

So as not to incriminate himself, or the DNC who have propped him up as their candidate and in an effort to hide behind laws, I wonder if President Elect Obama will plead the 5th in a refusal to testify against himself  http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Plead+the+Fifth and defy the U.S. Supreme Court and people like you and me who actually do “give a f^^k”.

09 NOVEMBER 2008: Supreme Court Of The United States (SCOTUS) Supreme Court Justice David Souter has agreed that a review of the federal lawsuit filed by attorney Phil Berg against Barack Hussein Obama II, et al., which was subsequently dismissed for lack of standing is warranted. SCOTUS Docket No. 08-570..  Berg’s petition for an injunction to stay the November 4th election was denied, but the Clerk also required the defendants to respond to the Writ of Certiorari, which I believe, requires the concurrence of four justices, by December 1, 2008. 

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that people like me and the others who want to know the origins of Barack Obama’s citizenship are not stupid, and the Court it appears to want to see Obama’s birth certificate too.  There is nothing in the main stream media about Berg vs Obama or Martin vs Hawaii and until it is, we have remained on the fringe until being vindicated, at least a little bit.  It seems when talking about Obama’s citizenship that people don’t know a thing, they believe it is a lie or they are following the pursuits of justice to determine his eligibility.  For millions of voters, any citizenship questions they may have had were laid to rest long ago but to others, questions still remain and poignantly is, why President Elect Obama will not just show us his vaulted birth certificate? 

Groups like fact check have show us what is called a ‘re-issued’ certificate, often called by the states a certificate of live birth or a COLB.  A COLB normally passes for a birth certificate and is just as good unless questions arise. A comparison between the two documents can be found here. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_R-l1iejogZw/SQLJZbuSVXI/AAAAAAAABKM/9B2p–yZzDw/s1600-h/Obama+COLB.jpg

Berg’s web site headlines “U. S. SUPREME COURT AWAITS RESPONSE TO BERG’S WRIT OF CERTIORARI FROM OBAMA, DNC and Co-DEFENDANTS For   For Immediate Release: – 11/07/08 http://www.obamacrimes.com/  “I look forward to receiving defendant Obama’s response to the writ and am hopeful the U. S. Supreme Court will review Berg v. Obama. I believe Mr. Obama is not a constitutionally-qualified natural-born citizen and is ineligible to assume the office of President of the United States.”

Rule 11 as noted by the Supreme Court seems to make it clear that Justice Souter’s granting of a review on the Writ of Certiorari is not a right entitled to citizen Phil Berg, but rather is a matter of judicial discretion based upon a compelling reason. The compelling reason is the Constitutional requirement that no person except a natural born citizen shall be eligible to the office of President.

As I understand it, what this means is that on or before December 1, 2008 Barack Hussein Obama must respond to the writ of certiorari.  The Berg v Obama case really is really about a whole list of 56 questions regarding Obama’s place of birth. http://quipster.wordpress.com/2008/10/11/56-questions-obama-refuses-to-answer-about-citizenship/

The Rule of 11 http://www.law.cornell.edu/rules/frcp/Rule11.htm (4) the denials of factual contentions are warranted on the evidence or, if specifically so identified, are reasonably based on belief or a lack of information.  I can not imagine that as a Harvard Law Graduate and as President Elect that Obama would ignore such a request from the Justices of the Supreme Court and he will be compelled to provide a vault copy his original birth certificate.  In what is called a writ of mandamus to do so, they have absolutely no legal basis to refuse an order of the Supreme Court of the United States.

If Obama fails to do present his birth certificate, surely the Justices would be remiss in being defied.  They will then have to decide what to do about a President-elect who refuses to prove his natural-born citizenship.  Will Obama be held in contempt of court?  The Court may in fact, accept his COLB and in the long run issue a dismissal, citing that the responsibility of eligibility lies in Congress. We have already seen claims by The Federal Election Committee that it is not responsible for proof of eligibility

http://fightthesmears.com/articles/5/birthcertificate  posts his COLB but even that doesn’t’t prove even that is real, only that there is no credible evidence that it is a fake.  The raised seal and authoritative signature needed to validate the document cannot be seen on the scan http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Politics/12939.htm.  His campaign has a burden of proving otherwise and his website says that, “Smears claiming Barack Obama doesn’t have a birth certificate aren’t actually about that piece of paper — they’re about manipulating people into thinking Barack is not an American citizen.” Without that that little piece of paper, my friend- the fringe will not be convoluted into believing Obama is an American Citizen and that our Constitution will remain in crisis.  

While Martin has a case that is on the docket in Hawaii for November 18, 2008, there is a million dollar reward for anyone who can provide Obama’s birth certificate https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/11/09/obamas-birth-certificate-one-million-dollar-reward/ and a petition- Stop the Obama Constitutional Crisis with a reported 80,000+ signatures –the site got those signatures with out the help of ACORN!.   http://www.rallycongress.com/constitutional-qualification/1244/stop-obama-constitutional-crisis/ 

“I can see a unanimous Court (en banc) decertifying the election if Obama refuses to produce his birth certificate,” says Raymond S. Kraft, an attorney and writer. “They cannot do otherwise without abandoning all credibility as guardians of the Constitution. Even the most liberal justices, however loathe they may to do this, still consider themselves guardians of the Constitution. The Court is very jealous of its power – even over presidents, even over presidents-elect.”  Kraft is a contributor to http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.1614/pub_detail.asp

Most citizens, including myself will support the office and pray that should Obama pass through the Electoral collage and take the Oath of Presidency that his decisions yield the best four our future.  With more than a month and a half until Obama takes that Oath, we need a rational conclusion to make a rational judgment that he is in fact eligible.  The final judgment could be be influenced by any chaos that could result from de-certifying and voiding the election.  Found wrong or right, Berg and the American people could loose, even if he is right. 

What could be so hard about that, unless you have no birth certificate to present.

$1 MM Reward 4 Obama Long-Form Birth Certificate / Video

One Million Dollar Reward Offered For Certified Obama Long-Form Birth Certificate.  Secret of the Rosary Films is offering a one million dollar reward for the certified long-form birth certificate of Barack Obama.

The long-form birth certificate must be certified by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Long form birth certificates are exact photocopies of the original birth record that was prepared by the hospital or attending physician at the time of the child’s birth.

The long form usually includes parents’ information such as address of residence, race, birth place, date of birth — and additional information on the child’s birthplace, and information on the doctors that assisted in the birth of the child. The long form also usually includes the signature of the doctor involved and at least one of the parents.

When Hawaii became a state in 1959, there were many people who resided there who did not have a birth certificate. From 1911 to 1972, in Hawaii a person — over the age of one — whose birth was not registered — could apply for a short form birth certificate in Hawaii.

Obama’s Kenyan grandmother stated he was born in Kenya. However, Obama’s mother or grandmother probably filed an affidavit stating that Obama was born in Hawaii and the state of Hawaii issued the kind of short form certificate posted on the Obama’s Web site.

This is the reason why Obama has not released a long form Hawaiian birth certificate to the courts it does not exist. “

With a one million dollar reward out there, Obama himself should present the birth certificate to the Supreme Court and claim the reward.  He could buy his children the new puppy he promised them with the reward money and it would offset the cost of caring for the dogs and their own security detail.  Of course, he would then have to pay taxes on the million, but still have enough money left for a cat for Michelle if she wanted one.  Might as well get Joe Biden a parrot too.

Russian Sub Put Together Like Humpty Dumpty

Over 20 people have been killed after a firefighting system went off during sea trials on board the Nerpa, a nuclear submarine in Russia’s Pacific Fleet. The sub was on a test run in the Sea of Japan with 208 people aboard 81 of whom were servicemen. Submariners and ship builders were killed, the AP reports.

It appears that Russia was leasing Akula II class boats to India recently and I believe it might be this one http://en.rian.ru/russia/20081027/117976941.html provided by the Russian News Agency, RAI Novosti. 

“The construction of the Akula II class Nerpa nuclear attack submarine started in 1991 but has been suspended for over a decade due to lack of funding. Akula II class vessels are considered the quietest and deadliest of Russian nuclear-powered attack submarines. The submarine, built under a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry, has been moved from the shipyard in Komsomolsk-on-Amur to a maintenance facility in the Primorye Territory and fitted with all necessary equipment. At present it is undergoing sea trials,” a spokesman for the shipyard told RIA Novosti. Indian media have reported on various occasions that the construction of the submarine was partially financed by the Indian government. India has reportedly paid $650 million for a 10-year lease of the 12,000-ton submarine.  Nerpa is expected to join the Indian navy under the designation INS Chakra in the second half of 2009.”

Construction on this hunk of steel was halted for 16 years for lack of funding and then put back together again like Humpty Dumpty.  http://en.rian.ru/russia/20081027/117976941.html  I am reminded of, why did the Kursk sink? http://www.wps.ru/en/pp/kursk/2002/03/19/1.html The three torpedoes aboard the Kursk had a storage time of which, at the depot had elapsed and detonated early.  Sound Familiar? 

In 2003, eleven people died on a Russian sub being taken out of service sank in the Barents Sea. Even with this new failure, Russia has seen success. From SEVEROMORSK, October 11 (RIA Novosti) – A Russian submarine has for the first time test launched the Sineva ballistic missile to its maximum range from the Barents Sea to an equatorial part of the Pacific Ocean.  The exercise drills involved more than 5,000 military personnel, eight surface ships and five submarines.  “The RSM-54 Sineva (NATO designation SS-N-23 Skiff) is a third-generation liquid-propellant intercontinental ballistic missile that entered service with the Russian Navy in July 2007. It has a maximum range of 8,300 km (5,200 miles) and can carry four or 10 nuclear warheads. http://en.rian.ru/russia/20081011/117682147.html

This serious naval accident and other SNAFUs like this, only remind us how unstable nuclear warhead missiles are in the hands of the Russians.  Had the explosion resulted in the launch of a nuclear torpedo, millions of people could be dead, accidentally.   This “mishap” comes as Russia is trying to restore it’s reputation and demonstrate it’s over all military prowess while Americans have elected a President Obama who projects a decrease in military spending.  https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/10/22/obama-demilitarizes-while-russia-modernizes-missiles/

Russia has been holding joint naval exercises with close U.S. neighbor Venezuela, snubbing America’s Monroe Doctrine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monroe_Doctrine  that was used symbolically when the Soviet Union began building missile launch sites in Cuba.

“Russia displayed its military strength in the Mediterranean yesterday after warships heading to Venezuela passed through the Strait of Gibraltar in the second deployment of Russian naval vessels in the waterway since the Cold War. The nuclear-powered missile cruiser Peter the Great, accompanied by the Admiral Chabanenko, an anti-submarine destroyer, as well as a reconnaissance vessel and a support ship, are destined for a maritime exercise with the Venezuelan navy.” Russia has also moved to intensify contacts with Venezuela, Cuba and other Latin American countries and has signed weapons contracts worth more than $4 billion with Venezuela since 2005 to supply fighter jets, helicopters and 100,000 Kalashnikov AK47 assault rifles. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article4887728.ece

http://www.mnweekly.ru/news/20080926/55348681.html Moscow News outlines Russia’s display of its naval might at America’s doorstep, but notes that the ” Russian Navy’s state will not improve as a result of Moscow’s modified policies. Hopefully, the government will soon start restoring and rearming the Navy because any show of strength will otherwise prove ineffective.” 

No one will accuse President Obama of overbearing American supremacy while he reduces America’s might and increases his proposed “civilian national security force.”  Obama pledged: “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”  Obama’s selection of Emanuel, in his book, The Plan: Big Ideas for America, sketches out the same idea on how to “fight against the spread of evil and totalitarianism.” … by expanding the U.S. army by 100,000 more troops,” Emanuel suggests “we must protect our homeland and civil liberties by creating a new domestic counter terrorism force like Britain’s MI5.”

Charles Rangel’s National Service Act,   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_National_Service_Act which is languishing before Congress, provides for a universal draft with two years of service for virtually all persons aged 18-42, with no deferment for college. The purpose of Rangel’s bill is seems to reflect Obama’s desires:

“To require all persons in the United States between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform national service, either as a member of the uniformed services or in civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security . . . .”

Civilian service described in the bill (sec 102(b)):

a civilian capacity that, as determined by the President, promotes the national defense, including national or community service and service related to homeland security.

 

In more anti-military, environmental whacko, tree hugging jurisprudence, comes this article from http://www.ibdeditorials.com/IBDArticles.aspx?id=284688883235757 ,  A federal court has restricted the Navy’s use of sonar to defend America. Never mind that missiles fired from enemy submarines will harm the environment more than the sonar used to detect them. The Chinese are adding 2.5 new subs each year to their fleet, and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld says the Chinese may have more subs than we do within a decade.

In the National 3:00 am call that we heard about from Hillary Clinton and others during the pre-election banter, comes this portrayal from the Department of Defense:

“This is the National Military Command Center.  We have detected the launches of two ballistic missiles out of Iran with projected impact in New York in less than 25 minutes.  Iranian President says he did not order this, it was done by a small radical group which explains our very limited indications and warning.  Iranian strategic and regional missile forces have now been ordered to full alert in anticipation of U.S. retaliation.  We have notified state and local authorities and are notifying allied governments. 

Mr. President, what are your instructions?”

Obama has about two months to get up to speed for his “on the job training” to comprehend the full range of capabilities deployed by the United States. Barring any unforeseen challenges to his citizenship from Berg vs Obama or Martin vs the State of Hawaii, he will take office on January 20 and faces enormous security challenges here and abroad.  Director of National Intelligence Mike McConnell gave the President-elect the first national security briefings, which details not only threat perceptions but responses, including special operations that are currently under way in different parts of the world- conflicts and resolutions.

America has one US President at a time and Obama might need to bite his tongue when it comes to Iran, or his policies as expressed, may develop into unmitigated disaster.  The ideology of characters like Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, and Frank Davis, and yesterday’s selection of Rahm Emanuel to Chief of Staff, combined make the hairs on my back stand up.  Illinois Democrat Emanuel served under Clinton and as Paul Joseph Watson notes this morning on his pick, “it is disturbing in light of the fact he is a staunch supporter of reactionary forces in Israel and his father was an Irgun terrorist.”  http://www.infowars.com/?p=5781&cp=6  Exit polls conducted nationwide show that about 78 percent of the Jewish vote was for Obama and I wonder if they are reassured that Obama’s values are similar to theirs?  I also wonder if anyone will note that Emanuel was appointed to the board of Freddie Mac?  http://hotair.com/archives/2008/11/07/emanuel-tied-to-freddie-mac-collapse/

“Barack Obama has criticized Bush for “not talking to the enemy,” particularly in Iran. So, the world would expect Obama to obey all the diplomatic traffic rules and follow all the procedures to try to persuade President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the Iranian authorities to abandon their project to build a nuclear bomb. But when Iran refuses to give up its bomb despite the eloquent entreaties of the new American president, Obama would be forced to act. So, after talking with Iran, he would likely end up at the same spot where Bush is. That wouldn’t’t make him very popular in Iran or with others who oppose America’s use of its military might.”  said, Ayann Hirsi Ali. http://www.arabtimesonline.com/kuwaitnews/faqdetails.asp?faid=1218&faqid=9.  She also articulates that by America’s with drawl of the Middle East, we will be opening the whole area to energy hungry Chinese and to Russia to whom democracy, borders, boundaries and civil rights have little meaning. 

Iran’s naval chief Adm. Habibollah Sayyari told state radio Tuesday, Oct,.28, that their new base could be used to block the entry of any “enemy” into the Persian Gulf. Iran has warned it would close the narrow Strait of Hormuz, through which 40 percent of the world’s oil passes, if the US attacked its nuclear installations. Sources note the additional advantages of its location for Tehran are quick access to the Red Sea, Indian Ocean and Horn of Africa and support for three objectives:

1. A naval presence opposite the Gulfs of Oman and Aden, where Israeli maintains Dolphin submarines. For Tehran their presence is part of Israel’s belligerent posture opposite Iran.

2. Intensified military involvement in Sudan on the Red Sea.

3. As a counterweight for the US, NATO and Russian naval might building up off the pirate-ridden Somali coast. From Tehran, this build-up looks like a potential threat to its maritime supply lanes and oil export routes.  http://www.debka.com/headline.php?hid=5681First,

Obama must realize that negotiating with Iran will not stop its nuclear weapons program. He said he will speak with rogue state leaders like Ahmadinejad “without preconditions,” implying this is a new idea. In fact, Britain, France and Germany (“the EU-3″) have been doing exactly that for over five years. Throughout, they have been surrogates for America, and yet Iran has shown no inclination to terminate its nuclear program.  John Bolton http://www.nydailynews.com/opinions/2008/09/25/2008-09-25_a_wakeup_call_on_irans_nukes.html———-3

Buried on the back pages of the news, The Israel Insider is reporting a seismic event in southern Iran, may in fact have been a massive underground nuclear bomb test.  The USGS measured a tremor 5.0 on the Richter scale on October 25, just north of Hormuz and opposite Abu Hhabi.  A 4.8 Richter scale event happened on October 21 just 3 miles of the event on the 25th. Foreign sources have long speculated that Iran already is possession of ready nuclear bombs and are being funded by China and North Korea.  Who do you think Iran would like to bomb first?  Israel, maybe or the US?

I trust that Obama’s security briefing didn’t leave out the fact that North Korea threatened to turn South Korea into debris unless Seoul stops what it described as a policy of confrontation.  “The puppet authorities had better bear in mind that the advanced preemptive strike of our own style will reduce everything … to debris, not just setting them on fire,” the North’s military said in a statement.  “It will turn out to be a just war… to build an independent reunified state on it, http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,24565063-2703,00.html.

Rand Corporation http://www.rand.org/pubs/testimonies/2008/RAND_CT304.pdf  gave testimony presented before the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs on April 15, 2008 the impact of a nuclear target hit in Long Beach, California.  “The area of radiation contamination (approximately 500 square km) that will require long-term relocation of people and businesses is home to an estimated two million people. These people must be moved within a few days and will not be able to take most of their possessions because of the threat of contamination. Prevention efforts would benefit the country not only in the extreme case of nuclear terrorism, but would also be broadly applicable to the preparation for and response to other catastrophes such as major earthquakes and floods that could require mass evacuations for months or even years of contaminate regions.

http://www.rand.org/pubs/testimonies/2008/RAND_CT304.pdf”  Where do you think the people might be moved to?  My money is Alaska.  Who is going to move 2 million people?  The 1st Army Brigade? 

The short, 12 page document in so little words goes over what would be needed in a nuclear event or disaster hitting a city and basically says what most Americans know, we’d be screwed.  Maybe the Rex 84 Program http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rex_84 is making a comeback in 2008 under a new name, The Conflict and Revolution Document or C & R Document in preparation for a U.S. financial or nuclear demise.  The Madison Report claimed the C&R Document exists and it is circulating among Congress warning of a bleak future for America. http://www.knowthelies.com/?q=node/1307  Just maybe, C & R is what the President receives daily.

Let’s hope, That One has those big ears open and his mouth shut while he under goes the same daily briefings as The President. If the message of a C & R Document isn’t in print and doesn’t really exist, we can all see the writing on the wall anyways.

America has spoken.  The 2008 Presidential Election is over.  Barry Baraq Mohammad Hussein Dunham Stereo Obama, Jr., That One- Barack Obama is going to be the 44th President. http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/stateupdates/gGx3Kc

What struck me in the news coverage of The Election, were the tears of joy streaming from Jessie Jackson’s eyes.  In the words of many black voters, the dream has been at least partially realized.

While America celebrated, Russia was busy.  President Dmitry Medvedev sent congratulations via a telegram http://en.rian.ru/world/20081105/118142101.html .  While addressing the Federal Assemble Medvedev said, “We have no problems with the American nation, we have no inbred anti-Americanism. We hope our partners, the new United States administration, will make a choice in favor of full-fledged relations with Russia,”  Simultaneously he issued a direct threat with an announcement that he would deploy Iskander missiles to Russia’s Kaliningrad region, as a military response to U.S. plans to deploy missile-defense facilities in Poland and the Czech Republic, former Soviet satellites that are now NATO members.  He did not say if they would have nuclear warheads.  http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122588962209001415.html and updated at http://www.air-attack.com/news/news_article/3422.

Obama has promised to cut US defense spending and demilitarize while Russia is modernizing it’s fleet of missiles.  https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/10/22/obama-demilitarizes-while-russia-modernizes-missiles/  Only last Friday, A ground-based missile successfully intercepted a target missile in a test of the nation’s defense system. http://www.mda.mil/mdalink/html/mdalink.html An intercontinental ballistic missile interceptor blasted out of an underground silo at Vandenberg Air Force Base shortly after 1:15 p.m., and tracked a target missile that had lifted off from the Kodiak Launch Complex in Alaska. Two operational interceptor missiles are currently based at Vandenberg and there are 11 deployed at Fort Greely, Alaska.  Obama may want to play nicer with Sarah Palin from Alaska.  http://www.ocregister.com/news/missile-defense-interceptor-1854447-target-air

Russia is not alone in the quest for missile leadership. http://missilethreat.com/missilesoftheworld/ Accuracy of missiles like the Al Hussein, Project 1728, Al Hijara a Road Mobile SRBM- is such that it can only be effectively used against extremely large targets, as it can land as far as two miles away from the intended target. As such, it is useful to strike population centers, large military staging areas and oil fields, but little else.

In Iran, with whom Obama has pledged to sit down with no preconditions, the The Shahab-3 is a medium-range, liquid-propellant, road-mobile ballistic missile.  Nuclear, HE, chemical, or sub munitions, it is ready and operational in Iran.   Its range is sufficient to target Israel, Turkey, the Indian subcontinent, and US forces stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Persian Gulf. The missile’s low accuracy means the missile would probably only be usable to attack civilian populations and has no military application other than simply holding enemy populations hostage.

Obama said, ” If we can responsibly deploy missile defenses that would protect us and our allies we should – but only when the system works. ” http://campaignspot.nationalreview.com/post/?q=NDgzZTk5YjBjYmNkNDQ2NDhhOGFlNmJhYzJhYmFmODM= President Obama must understand that while not perfect, they are working and others are in development.  One is the Kinetic Energy Interceptor, an agile, high-acceleration system that can get close to launch sites because of its mobility. Another is the Airborne Laser, which will be able to strike lofting missiles above the clouds at the speed of light using a laser from hundreds of miles away. A third program is the Network Centric Airborne Defense Element, an inexpensive modification of the main air-to-air missile carried on U.S. fighters that could be ready to intercept enemy missiles by the end of the next president’s first term in office.  http://www.spacewar.com/reports/Thompson_Files_Missile_defense_realities_999.html

Also on the Election Day, The Bahraini Air Force conducted a joint exercise in missile defense with units from the US Central Command, Bahrain’s official BNA news agency reported on Tuesday.  http://www.spacewar.com/missiledefense.html

Israel celebrated the election by bombing the Gaza Strip. “A four-month ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian militants in Gaza was in jeopardy today after Israeli troops killed six Hamas gunmen in a raid into the territory.  Hamas responded by firing a wave of rockets into southern Israel.  http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/nov/05/israelandthepalestinians

In the Congo, http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/congo Rebels led by the renegade Tutsi general Laurent Nkunda clashed with pro-government Mai Mai militia today, threatening a fragile ceasefire around the provincial capital, Goma. The renewed fighting prompted aid groups to suspend efforts to reach ten of thousands of people displaced and starving by previous violence. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/nov/05/congo-aid

What could be worse than Proposition 4, 8, 10,12 or 14?  What is worse than the financial bailouts?  What is worse than reform or taxes?  What could be worse than war?  A nuclear war and  nuclear disaster. 

President George Washington has summed it up, “The foundations of our national policy will be laid in the pure and immutable principles of private morality, and the preeminence of free government be exemplified by all the attributes which can win the affections of its citizens, and command the respect of the world.”

Joe Biden and Joe The Plumber can agree on one thing.  President Obama will be, and is being tested even before his inauguration.

The campaign for President is winding down but the media’s news campaign for the results of the election are running full steam ahead.

Americans are tuning in to Main Stream Media and the Internet like never before to follow election results and see where our country is headed in the next four years.  It is incredible really, the amount of information that one has access to in America, and that the access and reporting is in real time.  It becomes unimaginable that there are places in the world like Russia and China where the government censures the media at it’s convenience.  Freedom of speech and of the press are often taken for granted in America.  Whatever the outcome, our Election Day coverage in the media displays to the entire world that democracy works.  There is no amount of advertising dollars that could ever be spent that indicates just how powerful freedom is.

It will be interesting to note not only the variances in the graphic designs but the uncertainty of predictions.  In 2004, polling numbers, predictions and maps were cast aside as our Judaical system ruled in the end that George Bush won.  Statistics and graphs can misrepresent the truth and be manipulated into reflecting opinion, rather than fact.  Will Fox News, that typically leans toward Republican candidates, show graphs that reflect a bias toward McCain?  Will CNN, that is stereotypically pro Democrat, yield information that indicates Obama the winner?  Time will tell in the final outcome which media outlet is the most reliable, fair and balanced in reporting the results and activities of Election 2008.  My prediction and hope is that voters put country first and that in the end all the maps- no matter the source, confirm John S. McCain as the next President of The United States of America. 

One University of Michigan physics professor and his team applied mathematics, geography, and visualization to show us that those blocky red states and blue states are actually a lovely, purpley, swirly, fishy looking thing. The above image comes from http://www-personal.umich.edu/~mejn/election/.

This Google link page lets you see state-by-state breakdowns, with vote totals within each state, and also county-by-county breakdowns, if you click on the state, then click on “County Map” in the upper right-hand corner of the pop up window.  http://maps.google.com/help/maps/elections/#2008_election Google also has a map http://myfairelection.com/ where we can follow events at the polls as reported by citizens like you and me.  We are only a few hours into the election and already people are posting and logging in to identify problems and successes at the voting booths across America.

While it is early on Election Day, all reports show a calm America as we go about our duty to vote freely without duress of martial law, riots, civil disorder, or the Enforcement of Laws to Restore Public Order.  https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/11/03/riot-police-ready-for-civil-unrest-on-election-night/ 

It is also notable that any pending litigation from Andy Martin, Philip Berg http://dockets.justia.com/docket/court-paedce/case_no-2:2008cv04083/case_id-281573/  or John Q. Citizen that demanded that the election be delayed or that Obama shows the world his authentic, vaulted birth certificate have not been successful. https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2008/10/31/obamas-citizenship-goes-to-supreme-court/ Both Martin and Berg have court dates after the elections regarding Obama’s citizenship and qualifications to become President under the natural born citizen clause, Article II, Section 1, of the U.S. Constitution.   The electoral college process takes place after the election and is outlined here http://www.archives.gov/federal-register/electoral-college/faq.html  These are the key dates:

  • November 4, 2008 – General Election: The voters in each State choose electors to serve in the Electoral College. As soon as election results are final, the States prepare seven or nine original “Certificates of Ascertainment” of the electors chosen, and send one original along with two certified copies (or three originals, if nine were prepared) to the Archivist of the United States.
  • December 15, 2008 – Meeting of Electors: The electors in each State meet to select the President and Vice President of the United States. The electors record their votes on six “Certificates of Vote,” which are paired with the six remaining original “Certificates of Ascertainment.” The electors sign, seal and certify the packages of electoral votes and immediately send them to the President of the Senate, the Archivist of the United States and other designated Federal and State officials.
  • December 24, 2008 – Deadline for Receipt of Electoral Votes: The President of the Senate, the Archivist of the United States, and other designated Federal and State officials must have the electoral votes in hand.
  • January 6, 2009 – Counting Electoral Votes in Congress: The Congress meets in joint session to count the electoral votes (unless Congress passes a law to change the date).
  • God Bless America, her citizens, and especially today, The Voter.

    New ad for McCain. 

    WASHINGTONThe Republican National Committee (RNC) today launched a new Web video, titled “Stooges.”  The video highlights the antics we can expect in Washington from the unbalanced liberal trifecta of Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and, if elected, Barack Obama.  The Democrats’ unbalanced government would lead to higher taxes and spreading the wealth around, and there’s nothing funny about that.

    This from Melanie Phillips, October 14, 2008.  http://www.spectator.co.uk/melaniephillips/2293196/pinch-yourself.thtml The Spectator,
    You have to pinch yourself – a Marxisant radical who all his life has been mentored by, sat at the feet of, worshiped with, befriended, endorsed the philosophy of, funded and been in turn funded, politically promoted and supported by a nexus comprising black power anti-white racists, Jew-haters, revolutionary Marxists, unrepentant former terrorists and Chicago mobsters, is on the verge of becoming President of the United States. And apparently it’s considered impolite to say so.”
    Race Course Against White Supremacy is the new book from William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn scheduled for release on Amazon next June.  http://www.amazon.com/Race-Course-Against-White-Supremacy/dp/088378291X/ref=cm_sw_em_r_dp_title_featured?ie=UTF8&tag=tellafriend-20 
    White supremacy and its troubling endurance in American life is debated in these personal essays by two veteran political activists. Arguing that white supremacy has been the dominant political system in the United States since its earliest days—and that it is still very much with us—the discussion points to unexamined bigotry in the criminal justice system, election processes, war policy, and education. The book draws upon the authors’ own confrontations with authorities during the Vietnam era, reasserts their belief that racism and war are interwoven issues, and offers personal stories about their lives today as parents, teachers, and reformers.”
    Amazon doesn’t say if the book mentions Obama or to whom the book is dedicated to. 
    Birds of a feather flock together.
