Election Season 2014

And it has brought us to this trainwreck called ObamaCare and we have bankrupted our kids and grandkids!

We are now headed into the 2014 Election Season and common sense and conservatism are on the rise. Please stand-up and be counted!

Obama Can Shut Down Internet For 4-Months Under New Emergency Powers – (S.3480)

This should scare the Hell out of you!!  This is what they do in countries like Iran, Cuba, Venezuela etc etc.  Wake-up America. All they need to do is create a crisis, turn off the Internet, and steal the election(s)

Barack Hussein Obama is now one step closer to seizing control of the Internet, which is a far bigger prize than the reinstitution of the Fairness Doctrine. In fact, if the the Obama Regime gains this power, then they'll be able to follow suit with Talk Radio, and then have the same sort of iron-fisted control of media networks the Communist Chinese have. Just imagine an America where the Internet, which was invented here, were nothing more than a propaganda tool for the Obama regime!? Sadly, that became much more likely yesterday.

The so-called "Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act," which was approved by a U.S. Senate Committee this week, is nothing more than a "kill switch" for opposing viewpoints on the Internet. It paves the way for the nightmare scenarios which are currently just conspiracy theories to most. But if they have total control of the Internet, and they got it legally (in the eyes of most Americans, and let's face it, we are growing, but we aren't even close to a majority yet), via an act of Congress (however unconstitutionally, and yes, I realize this sort of executive power grab is absolutely, inherently unconstitutional), the Obama Regime (and the puppet masters behind it) will have the same sort of power that Woodrow Wilson had, but none of his relative restraint.

Without the Internet to express our views, and to communicate, network, and collaborate, we instantly become many fractured local movements, only as large as we have time to make phone calls and have money to send out snail mail (paper letters). It would mean that the Obama regime has all of the technology that was enabled by freedom and property rights, and the forces of freedom would be blown back into the pre-Internet era. Talk about a paradigm shift!
WE MUST NOT ALLOW THIS! Here's the excerpt from TechWorld:

Obama Internet kill switch plan approved by US Senate
President could get power to turn off Internet

‘Kill switch’ bill approved, moves to Senate floor

Obama Can Shut Down Internet For 4 Months Under New Emergency Powers 250610top2

President Obama will be handed the power to shut down the Internet for at least four months without Congressional oversight if the Senate votes for the infamous Internet ‘kill switch’ bill, which was approved by a key Senate committee yesterday and now moves to the floor.

The Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act, which is being pushed hard by Senator Joe Lieberman, would hand absolute power to the federal government to close down networks, and block incoming Internet traffic from certain countries under a declared national emergency.

Despite the Center for Democracy and Technology and 23 other privacy and technology organizations sending letters to Lieberman and other backers of the bill expressing concerns that the legislation could be used to stifle free speech, the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee passed in the bill in advance of a vote on the Senate floor.

In response to widespread criticism of the bill, language was added that would force the government to seek congressional approval to extend emergency measures beyond 120 days. Still, this would hand Obama the authority to shut down the Internet on a whim without Congressional oversight or approval for a period of no less than four months.

The Senators pushing the bill rejected the claim that the bill was a ‘kill switch’ for the Internet, not by denying that Obama would be given the authority to shut down the Internet as part of this legislation, but by arguing that he already had the power to do so.

They argued “That the President already had authority under the Communications Act to “cause the closing of any facility or station for wire communication” when there is a “state or threat of war”, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.

Fears that the legislation is aimed at bringing the Internet under the regulatory power of the U.S. government in an offensive against free speech were heightened further on Sunday, when Lieberman revealed that the plan was to mimic China’s policies of policing the web with censorship and coercion.

“Right now China, the government, can disconnect parts of its Internet in case of war and we need to have that here too,” Lieberman told CNN’s Candy Crowley.

While media and public attention is overwhelmingly focused on the BP oil spill, the establishment is quietly preparing the framework that will allow Obama, or indeed any President who follows him, to bring down a technological iron curtain that will give the government a foot in the door on seizing complete control over the Internet.

As we have illustrated, fears surrounding cybersecurity have been hyped to mask the real agenda behind the bill, which is to strangle the runaway growth of alternative and independent media outlets which are exposing government atrocities, cover-ups and cronyism like never before.

Indeed, China uses similar rhetoric about the need to maintain “security” and combating cyber warfare by regulating the web, when in reality their entire program is focused around silencing anyone who criticizes the state.

The real agenda behind government control of the Internet has always been to strangle and suffocate independent media outlets who are now competing with and even displacing establishment press organs, with websites like the Drudge Report now attracting more traffic than many large newspapers combined. As part of this war against independent media, the FTC recently proposing a “Drudge Tax” that would force independent media organizations to pay fees that would be used to fund mainstream newspapers.

Kill Switch Would Kill The Internet

It’s always a comforting feeling when the fascists tell you to relax. And that’s what Senator Joe Leiberman (I-Conn.) told everyone to do Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union with Candy Crowley.

Crowley asked about the Kill Switch bill Leiberman co-sponsors with Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine) that would allow the President to shut down the Internet in a time of emergency.

The President will never take over the Internet, Leiberman—with a warm smile—assured the audience. The government shouldn’t take over the internet. The president would only do that in catastrophic times. Not going to do it every day. It’s only for national security. Relax.

“Right now China—the government—can disconnect parts of its Internet in a case of war. We need to have the ability to do that, too,” Leiberman said.

Of course, in China the government runs over its people with tanks. It drags them off to prisons without trial for practicing Christianity or saying something government doesn’t like, where they disappear forever—probably with a bullet in the brain. I wonder if Lieberman thinks our government should have those abilities as well.

China also censors the Internet—every day—to stifle the free flow of information… because it can.

The worry for Leiberman and his fascist buddies—the elected elitists who march to the orders of the New World Order—is not what would happen to America if some outside entity launched a cyber attack on the United States.

The worry is that the Internet has opened up a treasure trove of information and an ability to share ideas with freedom-loving people all over the world. No longer is the main stream media the sole purveyor of information.

So that information can no longer be controlled. More and more people are learning the truth about government and the secret machinations that go one behind the scenes. They are learning about the corporatists that pull the strings. They are learning about the Bilderbergers and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and the Trilateral Commission. They are waking up.

CFR member and Bilderberger Zbigniew Brzezinski recently lamented that people are becoming more aware of what’s going on in the world than ever before, and this awareness is harming their agenda.

So the U.S. government is gearing up for a crackdown on the information flow—or at least to have that ability when needed. Ignorant people, after all, are easier to control.

You may remember the protests in Iran a few months ago. The government there shut down the press. There was a complete information blackout throughout traditional media.

But we saw the atrocities that were taking place there—the shootings, the beatings, the imprisonments of the opposition—because of Facebook and Twitter. Despite the government’s best efforts to control the information coming out of Iran, the world knew the truth because of the Internet.

And protestors were able to organize large crowds in central locations and avoid the state police forces because they were able to communicate via the internet after other communications were shut down.

Not ready to think your government might be no better that Iran’s? Then surely you’ll consider that such a bill allowing control of the Internet would be used to monitor your Internet usage so it can be taxed… so web sites opposing the Big Government’s message can be better monitored and shut down.

The Federal Trade Commission recently proposed a plan—called a Drudge Tax—to tax websites and electronic devices in order to bail out failing newspapers—the propaganda rags of the ruling class. And since that didn’t fly with the masses the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) now says it wants to control prices and set rules for what traffic Internet Service Providers (ISPs) must carry.

Censor the Internet? That would never happen here, would it Senator Leiberman?

No, he smiles and chuckles at the foolishness of the little people. Relax. National security and all.

Think Amateur Radio is dying out???
On June 18 there were already 16,937 new people that had become licensed (US) hams in 2010.  That's 600 more than became hams in ALL of 2005. (It's also 3,000 new people ahead of this point last year - and last year was a record-setter!)

U.S. Government on Twitter

Congressman Cantor said earlier this week that the DISCLOSE Act is a Blatant Attempt To Sway the November Election…  If that is the case this the act could be the final death nail in stealing that election as well as what is left of our freedoms.   Wake-up America! When do we say this is enough? 

I watched half of the John Adams mini-series tonight and found tears running down my face through most of it… like you do when you attend a memorial service.  Please make sure you rent or buy it and sit down and watch it with your kids or grandkids (explaining things between the 7-episodes) on or before the 4th of July.  I kept thinking what would they have said and done… you can bet not just sit here and let it happen!!
