My mother and father both commented on the dangers of one nation wielding so much influence. One joker like this could upset everything. Sometimes we take the wisdom of our parents for granted, but I have definitely been reminded about what they said there. Tim
Rulers will no longer see it as their duty to promote spirituality, or to protect their subjects: they will become a danger to the world.

The Democrats are doing everything they can to block it, but people are pissed off royal in this country. The only good thing about it is if Obama is on the verge of being impeached, which does seem to be Issa's goal, a civil war will be avoided. For now. I can't speak for the future, because Obama worked hard at one thing. Dividing the nation further yet. Have you noticed that? Tim

He had best keep a very large Secret Service contingency with him at all times. Tim I was going to abbreviate secret service but thought better of it.

I have told you about his rift with the armed forces, and here is one prime example. This is what theorists cannot get. In America we are fortunate enough to have a military whose duty includes protecting us from the executive branch if necessary. But they do receive orders from there as well. So when somebody of high rank, or former high rank acts like it is time? Not a good sign. Tim

ForexTV.com (New York) by Timothy Kelly (revision 2: adds extented text transcripts [not included in White House transcript accompanying video http://www.whitehouse.gov/photos-and-video/video/2012/09/12/president-obama-speaks-attack-benghazi#transcript] and adds 2nd paragraph correcting veracity of Mr. obama's statement) BREAKING: MAY 13, 2013 - OBAMA CONTINUES TO MISLEAD ON "ACT OF TERRORISM" REMARKS In tonight's presidential debate President Obama maintains that he called the attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi a "act of terror", which turns out to be accurate. However, the President is using a play on words. The full transcript below supports that assertion, which the moderator, Candy Crowley vehemently confirmed the President did do. However, the legal term of "act of terrorism" is never used. Furthermore, the President clearly implies the attack was a result of the reaction to an anti-Muslim film released on YouTube in the transcript the Whitehouse released with the video below.

The difference between he and Obama is that Obama believes: 1. the New Deal did not go far enough 2. the Constitution is an archaic 18th Century document that needs done away with (his words) 3. The Supreme Court cannot be trusted and should be scrapped 4. that everybody needs to pay more taxes. A lot more. 5. Those who paid in should receive less services 6. everybody is an American 7. That the American people are so dumb that he will be able to convince them that all of the above are true. Does that explain it thoroughly enough? Everything I listed is based upon his words and/or actions. Tim

"On Tuesday I raised the question of why none of the Benghazi survivors, whether State Department, CIA, or private security contract employees have testified publicly before Congress," said Wolf. "According to trusted sources that have contacted my office, many if not all of the survivors of the Benghazi attacks along with others at the Department of Defense, the CIA have been asked or directed to sign additional non-disclosure agreements about their involvement in the Benghazi attacks. Some of these new NDAs, as they call them, I have been told were signed as recently as this summer." Wolf continued: "It is worth noting that the Marine Corps Times yesterday reported that the Marine colonel whose task force was responsible for special operations in northern and western Africa at the time of the attack is still on active duty despite claims that he retired. And therefore could not be forced to testify before Congress. "If these reports are accurate, this would be a stunning revelation to any member of Congress, any member of Congress that finds this out and also more importantly to the American people. It also raises serious concerns about the priority of the administration's efforts to silence those with knowledge of the Benghazi attack in response.
