If you have, as I do, liberal friends either in person or through social media, no doubt you, as have I, been on the receiving end of dismissive and at times, curse-laden retorts when you truthfully refer to their party as socialists.
Glenn Beck, for years, has been on the receiving end of such vitriol every time he brings up Cloward and Piven or Saul Alinsky.
I’m about to link it all together for you in one neat and tidy little package.
The “Occupy Wall Street” protests.
Now, lest you think this is the end game of a bunch of people who have no real idea of what they’re doing there, as has been portrayed, think again. They know EXACTLY why they are there and, after reading this article, so too will you.
“Occupy Wall Street” is a test, a trial balloon, a dress rehearsal. Nothing more.
Got that?
NOTHING MORE!!!
David Horiwitz boiled down Cloward’s and Piven’s crisis creation to this; “The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.”
According to Cloward’s and Piven’s hero, Saul Alinsky, “Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules,” Alinsky wrote in his 1989 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system’s failure to “live up” to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist “rule book” with a socialist one.”
Back to Cloward and Piven.
“By crisis, we mean a publicly visible disruption in some institutional sphere. Crisis can occur spontaneously (e.g., riots) or as the intended result of tactics of demonstration and protest which either generate institutional disruption or bring unrecognized disruption to public attention.”
VIOLA!!! “Occupy Wall Street!!!”
Are those ill-behaved nuts on Wall Street, with their signs and chants and their list of goofy demands, as outlined here yesterday in an article by Patriot Rocker, NOT a “visible disruption in some institutional sphere?” Is it NOT a “tactic of disruption and protest?” Is it NOT meant to “generate institutional disruption or bring unrecognized disruption to public attention?”
Yep.
But what of the whole dress rehearsal thing”
Hang on…I’m getting there.
How many times have YOUR liberal friends, when challenged with the socialism aspect of their party, responded with something akin to, “don’t you want paved roads? Isn’t that socialism? What about Social Security, or Medicare? Aren’t those things socialism? You can’t live without socialism.”
Come on…You know those arguments have been used. Reference Alinsky: “When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system’s failure to “live up” to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist “rule book” with a socialist one.”
Hmmm…How about that? It matches those liberal driveling arguments and that last part, about wanting to replace the capitalist rule book with the socialist rule book? Alinsky = Socialist. Cloward and Piven LOVED Alinsky and patterened THEIR agenda on HIS…meaning Cloward and Piven, who can be found at the root of the “Occupy Wall Street” thing, are promoting…SOCIALISM!
Dress rehearsal?
I’m getting there.
Okay, Enter the SEIU. I’ll go WAY out on a limb and guess that you fine conservatives have, at some point, labeled the unions as socialist organizations and been dismissed or cursed at by liberal friends for your efforts. Yes?
Well, what if I could show you that the SIEU, and by the way, that “U” stands for union, is actively employing the above described Cloward and Piven…SOCIALIST…plan to create crisis but before I do, I have one question to ask.
Where is Wall Street? You know…Where the “Occupy Wall Street” DRESS REHEARSAL is taking place.
It’s in New York…right? NOT in Washington D.C. but in New York…Yes?
Okay.
Take a look at THIS video from late September and remember, while you’re watching all 7:31 of it…where exactly Wall Street is located. Ready?
WOW huh?
It is AMAZING!!!
The SEIU…is employing…a SOCIALIST plan to…CREATE a CRISIS…BLOCK BRIDGES…CAUSE DISRUPTIONS…all the things we’ve been watching in the DRESS REHEARSAL on WALL STREET but…BUT…They’re planning it for…WASHINGTON D.C. aren’t they???
The SOCIALISTS are planning…IN THEIR WORDS…ECONOMIC TERROR…and the assembled socialists are CHEERING it.
Now, add to all of this what ELSE is going on right now.
Obama has put forth a “plan,” a jobs bill, which has ZERO chance of passing – and yesterday, in his press conference, he stated the protesters on Wall Street, “are giving voice to a more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works…and that’s going to express itself politically in 2012 and beyond.”
Nancy Pelosi, in HER news briefing with regard to the protesters, actually uttered the words,“God bless their spontaneity.”
Consider that video, complete with the blocking of bridges and then consider the word…”spontaneity” and see just how disingenuous liberals are.
Liberals in the Senate are now proposing an “Envy Tax” – my words not theirs – on millionaires with a 5% surcharge. SOCIALISTS want to punish the rich; and in this manner, they draw a line between those who have and those who don’t…CLASS WARFARE!!!
Obama also said in his presser that, “The American people are positive about the specific aspects of the jobs bill but are apprehensive about Congress’s desire to act.”
In THAT statement, Obama is setting the stage for the people against the Congress (obviously he doesn’t want to run against Congress alone) and has identified CONGRESS as the ENEMY! Remember that part of the video where you first must identify the enemy? Of course you do.
Obama, the SOCIALIST, has spent his entire term blaming Bush while driving the economy deeper and deeper into the hole and at the same time growing our national debt to staggering record highs…CREATING A CRISIS!!!
Are your knees getting weak yet?
Class warfare, mass protests being planned for Washington D.C., economic terrorism, a growing economic crisis, high unemployment bolstered by never ending unemployment compensation, more people on food stamps than at any other time in history…good LORD…what ELSE???
How about Jimmy Hoffa Jr. just a short while back and his call for violence?
Hoffa said, on Labor Day, that unions need to fight a “war” against Tea Partiers and Congressional Republicans. “‘President Obama, this is your army,’ Hoffa said. ‘We are ready to march. Let’s take these sons of bitches out and take America back to where we belong.'”
Is your head starting to spin?
Well, how about the whole rekindling of the Tea Party is nothing but a bunch of racists deal? Morgan Freeman, Samuel L. Jackson, Andre Carson, Maxine Waters and on and on and on calling the Tea Party racists…It doesn’t take much imagination to see the seeds of RACE RIOTS being planted…Does it?
Remember that video…”It doesn’t happen in a day…does it?”
Now, keep this in mind as I wrap this up…Obama’s poll numbers are falling and he’s even losing his base. His chances of reelection are getting slimmer by the day.
This last part does, I admit, fall into the conspiracy theory category; but, considering all the evidence, I ask you, is it a far-flung stretch?
What happens if all of this comes together just one year from right now? Race Riots, mass demonstrations in our nation’s capitol, economic terror coupled with a new depression brought about by failed policies, high unemployment and all the rest…one year from right now.
How does a president deal with mass violence across the country?
Marshal Law?
In that case…What happens to the 2012 elections?
Remember…It was just last week that the Governor of North Carolina, Bev Perdue, who by the way is a liberal said, “I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won’t hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover.”
Was she floating a trial balloon?
Does the Constitution allow for the President to do such a thing? To an extent, yes. Here are the rules found in the Insurrection Act of 1807.
§ 331. Federal aid for State governments
Whenever there is an insurrections in any State against its government, the President may, upon the request of its legislature or of its governor if the legislature cannot be convened, call into Federal service such of the militia of the other States, in the number requested by that State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to suppress the insurrection.
§ 332. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority
Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State or Territory by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.
§ 333. Interference with State and Federal law
The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means, shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it—
- (1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or
- (2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.
§ 334. Proclamation to disperse
Whenever the President considers it necessary to use the militia or the armed forces under this chapter, he shall, by proclamation, immediately order the insurgents to disperse and retire peaceably to their abodes within a limited time.
While Obama’s powers would be limited, can anyone but me see him overstepping his authority?
Obama, remember, decided unilaterally to cease any defense of the defense of Marriage Act. Does the Constitution give a president the authority to decide what laws will and won’t be upheld?
No; but, Obama instructed the DOJ NOT to defend a law that was clearly on the books. He overstepped his authority and he got away with it.
What about the internet? Well, it really can’t be shut down; but, as was done in Egypt, it CAN be blocked and technically, that COULD be done HERE. By the way…have any conservatives out there noticed, let’s say in the last year or so, anything odd happening with…Facebook? What do you suppose the dinner conversation was when Obama sat down with Zuckerburg and other cyber giants?
The “Occupy Wall Street” thing is NOTHING but a DRESS REHEARSAL – and to believe otherwise, is a dangerous gamble.
Let the liberal gnashing of teeth and inevitable wadding of panties begin.
Craig, I do agree with much of what you say, and have always had a fear that this would happen (as you well know). I didn’t think about it as more of a dress rehearsal, but now that you bring it up… And I think what we are seeing is and was inevitable. Humanity always seems to lean towards socialism, until someone breaks away and fixes things for a while. We as a race want things handed to us…hard work is, well, hard. This is also the result of the “rich” being painted as evil. Hell, if it weren’t for the rich we wouldn’t have the nation we have!
At any rate, I just wanted to point out that even though in times of martial law the President assumes greater powers, they are still limited by the fact that the military is very much human, and American. Imagine the difficulty in commanding a military to act against the community it came from. Basically, most of us believe in our oath. It is going to take a military from outside the US to enact martial law…and that would only be possible if the active duty were otherwise engaged in a few more wars.
Oh, and if martial law were ever declared, every guy with a gun would hit the hills. Red Dawn would seem like a training video at that point. So, until the pesky gun problem can be dealt with, the elitists are going to do nothing more than cause chaos in America.
Long before Hussein Obama’s advent on the scene, the push has been on to force a socialist/secular progressive/Humanist/world community belief system on Americans.
When you consider human hearts and motives, it makes sense that all people do is based on some firmly held belief.
And yes, Craig, when I share this with liberal people I too get attacked. Never had one person say, ‘Thank You! Now I understand how I have been manipulated!’
But I keep telling it anyway.

Everything we see happening is part of a conscious effort to ‘Fundamentally Transform’ America into a pale version of European Socialism, and to place us under a global, ruling, Humanist elite.
Craig, to me, you have connected the dots EXACTLY right. Obama and his minions will stop at nothing to retain their power. This has been a gnawing fear for me ever since he was put in place to lead the destruction of America. Destruction of America is this man’s one and ultimate goal. Get ready to choose which side you stand on, America!
