The House of Representatives passed the National Defense Authorization Act (HB 1540) by a vote of 283-136. The Senate is expected to pass it tomorrow and the president will quickly sign off on this legislation. The threat of a veto by the president was never seriously considered to be anything more than a smokescreen since this legislation will give him power to make anyone “disappear” at his slightest whim. The Obama Rapture will be the ultimate display of both the abuse of power by our government against the people and the last vestige of any pretext that the American people are free.
The only thing that we are free to do is cower in fear. I have already been “notified” that people do not want to be overtly associated with me for fear of being put on the government’s list if this passes. Well it has passed for all intents and purposes and we only have ourselves to blame for voting “R’s” and “D’s” instead of voting for principles and leaders.
Jon Corzine has “lost” $1.2 billion in the collapse of MF Global.
