Self-appointed savior


The end of our country as we know it has now begun. One must ask how an American president can force the CEO of a private business to quit? How can this same "self-appointed savior" force another private company to merge with an Italian company? And where does the almighty O see in the Constitution that he is allowed to force a company to reorganize how the government wants it to? It has begun my friends. The takeover of America.

If you have children in school or college, you have much more to be worried about. The Senate and House have passed the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, also called the CARE Act. Please read house bill HR 1388 for a real fright. While reading this, keep in mind how quiet the creation of this bill has been, hidden by the government's "emergency financial crisis."

If you read it in depth, you'll also see the beginning of the takeover of the education system, where "service to the state" will be mandated to be taught at all educational levels. The "Obama youth movement."

So, protect your children and call you senators and representatives and tell them that they can have your children when they can pry them from your cold, dead hands. Yes, it's that serious.

And we have "the best minds in the country" advising the almighty O? If that is the case, we should elect some mid-class citizens who can read, balance a budget and are patriotic to run our country. There are some 8 and 9-year-olds who can do better than the almighty O and his minions.

The total disregard of the Constitution, the law and our loss of America. Amazing what a socialist president and his minions can do. He learned well in Chicago.
