Thoughts on Obama's national security force

Posted by David Hardy · 15 November 2008 05:51 PM

Israpundit has thoughts here, and I suspect he's dead on. The purpose is not security, but "re-education" of the participants.

I would have thought that that was obvious to all.

Rahm Emanuel's book, "The Plan," available on Amazon, should have been well studied and discussed by the Republican camp a full two years ago--and also by the RNC within a week of the beginning of the campaigning for the 2008 election, back when the caucuses were first brewing.

It wasn't.

Part II, Chapter 5, page 58 et seqq.

Read it and vomit.

If Obama is really as vacuous as he seems, and if Emanuel is really the conniving, puppeteering Svengali he seems, then the Emanuel Administration's "plan" will go according to "The Plan."

I disagree, it is not about re-education of the participants, but rather oppression of the non-participants.

Via the Black Panther or the Red Guard models!

Isn't the basic purpose of these schemes (this, nationalizing airport screeners, 100K cops on the beat, etc.) to get more people employed by the government instead of the private sector? There will have to be a new layer of bureaucracy to handle this new scheme.

Sorry RKM, don't understand your reference.

Go to the Google Books Preview.

Tarn they won't show page 58 for some reason lol.

It jumps from 54 - 63 seriously it does lol.

You should all check it out.

Then it says that "Pages 56-63" are not
oart of this book review.

This looks scary.

Public (government) schools have been about reeducating and removing the children from the terrible influence of their parents. During the 1980s push for school uniforms one of the major judicial rulings stated that the schools were the best place to inculcate the values society "wants" and so students could be forced into uniforms against the will of the parents and the students.

I'll bet even YOU learned the Pledge of Allegiance in school. The primary purpose of this inculcation was remove the last bits and pieces of state sovereignty by making the people believe we live in a single nation. I'll give $1000.00 to the first person who can show me where the united States is defined as a nation in the Constitution for the united States of America. This lie has permeated the minds of the people because those in power want to destroy state independence.

So why would anyone think anything the government does would be for the benefit of those to whom the act is done?

Dominus providebit!

Of course it is re-education, otherwise the simplest and quickest way to build community service in kids would be to encourage participation in the Boy and Girl Scouts. Or, maybe participation in Jr. ROTC.

Those who would join would already have been re-educated. Their purpose would then be to oppress individuality and its expression of the non-partipants if possible or to eliminate the non-participant if it isn't.

I'm afraid we've seen this too many times in history to mistake it.

Its gonna be the utopia where nobody gets to opt out of anything. We have never been in a better place to resist than the present.

But isn't somewhat edgy to you all
that those pages have been removed
from Emmanuel's book on Google Books
when the book preview goes to Page 121?

Pages 55-62 have been REMOVED.
