It was back in mid August, around the 17th or 18th, that Obama, no doubt arrogant over his calls for Mubarak and Gadaffi to leave 
their respective offices, stated that Syria’s Assad must go.
“The future of Syria must be determined by its people, but President Bashar al-Assad is standing in their way. For the sake of the Syrian people, the time has come for President Assad to step aside.”
This has clearly become the Obama doctrine and the point at the end of Obama’s stick is NATO.
A good deal has happened with this whole Eric Holder possible perjury situation since The National Patriot published our original article, “Holder, at the Bottom of a Deep Hole, Keeps Digging” and as such, the saga deserves a breaking update.
Just hours after publication this morning, Republican Congressman Lamar Smith sent a letter to Obama instructing the DOJ to appoint a special council in the case to get to the bottom of Holder’s possible perjury stemming from his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on May 3rd, 2011.
You can read that letter by clicking here.
For a case in which a special council is called for, that council does not report back to the Attorney General but, under the current law, it is the Attorney General, in this case, Eric Holder, who appoints that council. This is why Rep. Smith has asked Obama to do so since Holder is the subject of the investigation.
Here’s one question which needs to be asked:
Just who DOES the special council report to?
Am I the only one who thinks, the more we hear from Rick Perry…The LESS we’re GOING to be hearing from Rick Perry? It’s because
we’re learning more and more about candidate Perry and we’re learning it from HIM and this guy, every time he speaks, seems to be taking direct aim at his own foot.
Perry’s demise is going to come at the hands of his own policies and chief among them, his stance on illegal aliens.
Perry stands WITH the idea of allowing those in our country, specifically in Texas, to receive in-state tuition breaks and that is a direct salvo fired at a very stout Tea Party tenant. Perry can’t back away from this issue, even though now, I’m sure he would like to. Perry made this a law in Texas – and now, he’s stood firmly behind his policy on the debate stage. He went so far as to state that anyone against such a policy is heartless.
Ok, I am the new dog on the block, but I have known the contributors to this blog for some time now. With much arm twisting, they 
FINALLY got me to come along and contribute my words to this great blog. I do not pretend to be an expert in anything, though I am versed on a lot. I may not come across to eloquently at times, but I promise I will answer your questions. I welcome constructive criticism but negativity is not tolerated. I do not subscribe to any political ideology except that of the Constitution, battered and bruised as she may be. I have given my time to this country doing many things I can’t talk about, ever. I held my hand up nearly 20 years ago and swore: I, Shadow Patriot, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.
I will piss you off. I will make you laugh. I will give you something to think about. I may even make you like me. But what I won’t ever do is candy coat anything. I call it like I see it…I always have.
In light of the killing of Awlaki in Yemen yesterday, an American citizen, there are some who are pointing to the Constitution’s 5th 
Amendment and crying foul. Certainly this must be considered and to do so, we must first look AT that amendment.
“No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”
No doubt, many conservatives on Facebook have seen this posted – and many, while thinking “nothing surprises me,” probably also 
wondered if it was true or not. Your posts are showing up on Obama’s FB page in “friends” comments. Really? What?
Conservatives have for months been grousing about how their groups were getting shut down by FB without any notice. I know this to be true as several groups of which I belonged or started, received that very treatment.
For months now, conservatives have had FB posts and or comments simply vanish.
Yesterday, I wrote an article regarding the need to stop Obamacare – not just through the court system but by repeal. The Obama administration has passed on the opportunity to delay things in an Alabama court which will take the Obamacare case directly to the Supreme Court with a decision expected early next summer.
I stated that even LOSING in court, Obama would know his precious socialized healthcare program wouldn’t be dead…just on life support. That is why conservatives MUST take the Senate in 2012 so that repeal will finally pull the plug.
Okay, a friend, a liberal friend, shot off an email and of course, his viewpoint is a great deal different than mine.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…and again…and again. If you want to know what liberals are doing, just pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing. Oh, I have liberals, every day, tell me I wrong and, most of the time, they punctuate it with a few 
choice names – but much more often than not, liberals confirm it at every turn.
According to liberals, the Tea Party is a bunch of racists. We’ve heard it nearly from the genesis of the Tea Party movement. We’re racists. That’s what they tell us.
Oh really?
Well, meet the new face of the Tea Party…Mr. Herman Cain. Of course it’s possible for a black person to be a racist as racism isn’t in and of itself…racist. I mean by that that racism isn’t confined to the “white’s only” bench.
I have been listening to Mr. Cain for some time now and have yet heard him utter anything near a racist comment. For that matter, I have yet to notice any racism in his actions either.
Obamacare is on its way to the U.S. Supreme Court. The administration has passed on an opportunity to ask an Alabama court for further review after the court agreed with 26 states that the bill was unconstitutional.
That means, when the Supreme Court goes into session in October, Obamacare will be on the docket and chances are the case will be heard before the end of this year with a decision coming probably next summer in the heat of the 2012 presidential campaign.
That’s NOT the big news surrounding Obamacare however.
This is one of those good news/bad news things – and before we get to the bad news, the really disturbing news, we should look at the ramifications of the decision at hand.
I remember a time, it wasn’t so long ago, when a touchdown was scored, back patting, helmet slapping, jumping up and down and high fives were expected. Yes, even in high school. It was a score and it was exciting and the players were elated.
A while back, in a high school game, a player scored, dropped to one knee and pointed toward the night sky. He was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct and his team assessed a 15-yard penalty on the kickoff.
Unsportsmanlike conduct for recognizing God. I’m not sure when taking a knee in the end zone and pointing to the heavens became unsportsmanlike but I do know this…
We were Americans once.
