ALL ABOUT EVE (1950)--"Fasten your seat belts. It's going to be a bumpy night!" Bette Davis couldn't have said it better about our current Obama train wreck.
Listening to the recent White House press conferences, Obama proves he has not taken a Business 101 Basics course. Obama was highly critical while calling on the banks to loan more money to get the jobs created to jump-start the economy to grow. The bankers retorted back, "But, no one is presently asking for any loans."
What Obama dismisses, as a radical socialist, is the business basics rule that companies do not borrow money to hire employees or to push for expansion in a down economy with no significant consumer demand and the pending uncertainty of looming Federal Big Government regulations and taxes.
Obama needs no criticism from anyone, he is failing by his own measure. Just when Obama said his TARP money created jobs, Robert Gibbs, his spokeshole, now states that a 9.5% unemployment rate will linger throughout all of 2010. Obama's Federal spending programs portend our future, an upcoming big "double dip" depression cycle with big Federal Government regulations and higher taxes.

The Cloward-Piven Strategy
I believe I have "The Answer" to "My Question" that is on everyone's mind: "Why does it now seem like our Executive Branch of the Federal Government is running rampant in an all out panic to pass these huge spending bills with no details before any prudent Legislative reviews or oversights and with no regard to the concerns of the voters"?
I found a very interesting piece by Richard Poe entitled “The Cloward-Piven Strategy” that I thought might be worthy for "The Answer".
The Cloward-Piven Strategy may be old hat to the liberal intelligentsia, but I had never heard of it. All I do know is that it all sounded and looked so familiar as I read about the strategy. Scary! It will be interesting to read what others know about this topic.
Richard Andres Cloward and Frances Fox Piven - two Columbia University sociologists - first proposed this strategy in 1966 as a means to bring about the collapse of the capitalist state by bankrupting it. They reasoned that the number of Americans on the welfare rolls probably represented only a small fraction of those eligible for welfare. If enough people could be persuaded to demand what was "owed" them, the system would simply be overwhelmed, precipitating a "profound financial and political crisis."
Poe places the Cloward-Piven Strategy in the context of so-called "Trojan Horse movements":
- mass movements whose outward purpose seems to be providing material help to the downtrodden, but whose real objective is to draft people into service as revolutionary foot soldiers; to mobilize poor people en masse to overwhelm government agencies with a flood of demands beyond the capacity of those agencies to meet. The flood of demands was calculated to break the budget, jam the bureaucratic gears into gridlock, and bring the system crashing down. Fear, turmoil, violence and economic collapse would accompany such a breakdown -- providing perfect conditions for fostering radical change. That was the theory.
The "Voting Rights Movement" is another Trojan Horse, according to Poe. Organizations like Project VOTE, ACORN, and Human SERVE lobbied for the Motor-Voter law signed into law by Clinton in 1993. According to Poe, the Motor-Voter bill has swamped the voter rolls with "dead wood" - invalid registrations signed in the name of deceased, ineligible or non-existent people -- thus opening the door to the unprecedented levels of voter fraud and "voter disenfranchisement" claims that followed in subsequent elections.
Mass voter registration drives combined with the systematic intimidation of election officials (frivolous lawsuits, unfounded charges of racism and disenfranchisement, violent street protests) "have introduced a level of fear, tension and foreboding to U.S. elections heretofore encountered mainly in Third World countries."
Another Trojan Horse movement is the "Immigration Reform Movement" which resulted in massive protests throughout the United States. Protesters claimed that proponents of legislation that would make it a felony to be in the U.S. illegally, impose new penalties on employers who hire illegal aliens, and build a physical barrier to impede the flow of illegals across our southern border were hate-mongering racist xenophobes who sought to deprive them of their "right" to live and work in this country.
If it walks, quacks and looks like a duck, it looks like the largest Liberal Socialist Government takeover ever in United States history! Conservatives must unify behind a Conservative Leader with Conservative beliefs and retake the Party leadership and values. Let's get out to the polls and retake our country in 2010!

A Train Wreck Ready to Happen
We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe. This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West. The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, is facing an Islamic Europe.
I feel like I am slowly watching a train wreck happening to our world's society. One fully loaded inbound freight train is jam filled with Muslim Jihadists, the other is an outbound light passenger train of Christian and Infidels.
At the USA train station, I am standing next to the tracks watching those passenger train cars going by me in such a fast blur as they race on ahead into the fog of night and to their final destination ahead, a speeding incoming freight train. The passengers on the train won't even know what hit them until it is too late.
The only chance is to switch tracks, but the inexperienced conductor, asleep at the switch himself, snoozes as the train steams down the tracks chugging, "Yes we can!"; "Yes we can!"; "Yes we can!"; "Yes we can!" as the whistle blows loudly into the night, Obammmah!, Obammmah!, Obammmah!.............
