Taking Back America!

Merry Christmas From Obama, Congress, Legalized Martial Law?

At the writing of this post the MSM reports the White House had signaled it won’t veto the National Defense Authorization Act which is expected to make its way out of Congress Wednesday night over to Obama’s desk by Thursday. A bill which, in the words of Congressman Ron Paul,”We have now institutionalized and codified martial law”. A bill which should be a litmus test for all presidential contenders including the President up for reelection. So far, Barack Obama plans on signing the bill into law on Thursday. Ron Paul is vehemently against the bill. Mitt Romney was caught clueless at a New Hampshire Town Hall while, to date, Newt Gingrich,has kept mum on whether he supports this travesty to civil liberties of American citizens, a bill which would allow the military to detain American citizens on American soil, the new McCarthy Era ushered in by Barack Obama as President.

Comment by Debbie Myers on December 21, 2011 at 11:43am: While it was still in the Senate, being fought by Rand Paul, everyone I know was signing petitions & calling their reps. However,

According to reports from the Daily Kos and Russia Today, a company specializing in night raid equipment was awarded a 23 million dollar contract from the Department of Defense and subsequently went on to lobby for the NDAA which has given the government the power to indefinitely detain American citizens.

Sunfire LLC openly lobbed for the House version of the NDAA, a bill many have claimed has effectively ended the Bill of Rights, months after receiving the 23 million dollar contact from the DOD.

Why would this company be receiving a contract which could outfit at least 30,000 troops with new and updated night raid equipment when the U.S. is supposedly pulling troops out of Iraq and, to a smaller extent, Afghanistan?

So what does Surefire make? In a word, night-raid equipment, with a fresh new $23 million contract from the DoD even as we saw troops pulling out of Iraq and they are about to pull out of Afghanistan.

Have they been getting ready for more wars or civil unrest?

Does it seem likely that the night raid gear that will be provided to the DOD under the 23 million dollar contract will be used outside the United States when the company who won the contract is lobbying for a bill that lets the military operate against American citizens inside the country?

Comment by Debbie Myers on December 21, 2011 at 12:01pm: “Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended; its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied; and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force, of the people. The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.” ~ James Madison.
