Emperor Obama Orders His Cabinet To Come Up With List Of Executive Orders

(This A$$hole really does think he's a dictator)

(Reuters) – President Barack Obama told his Cabinet on Tuesday to look for areas where he might be able to govern by executive action given gridlock in Congress that is hampering his agenda.

In a White House meeting, Obama brought together the top officials in his government a day after conceding that a deadlocked Congress will prompt him to act on his own authority where he can on an immigration overhaul.

Obama said he wants to work with Congress where possible, "but if Congress is unable to do it," then he said his Cabinet officials and agency heads should look for areas where executive actions can "show some real progress."

"The people who sent us here, they just don't feel as if anybody is fighting for them or working them. We're not always going to be able to get things through Congress ... but we sure as heck can make sure that the folks back home know that we are pushing their agenda and that we're working hard on their behalf," Obama said.

BREAKING: Obuma Considering Executive Action On Contraception Mandate After Hobby Lobby Ruling

(So now the bastard is thinking of  going to unilaterally override the Supreme Court?  What a TURD!)

Obama weighs executive hammer – The Hill


President Obama is weighing executive actions after the Supreme Court ruled against ObamaCare's contraception mandate.

The White House swiftly called on Congress to enact a legislative fix but realistically knows lawmakers aren't about to act.

Obama has come under criticism from Republicans for his use of executive actions. Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) has announced the House will vote this month on approving a lawsuit against Obama over actions Boehner says are an abuse of power.

But the GOP criticism and threat seem unlikely to act as a brake on Obama, who separately on Monday said he would move forward with administrative actions on immigration reform in the face of what he described as GOP obstructionism.

"As we assess the impact of this decision, we'll consider whether or not there is a range of other options that may be available that don't require legislative action," White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters.

Democrats signaled in the hours after the high court's decision that they think the issue could boost their turnout in the fall by highlighting GOP opposition to abortion rights. That makes it even more likely that Obama will not fear taking executive steps.

Same thing for our West Elk School Board that may continue to bully  the taxpayers about building a new gymnasium. They will most likely have to raise our property taxes for the next couple, three years maybe more to pay for a new roof on the building. Why you may ask? Because of poor planning.

I do believe the School District has already eaten up our property tax breaks from the County.

We need new board members that are more conservative and have the ability to communicate with each other during board meetings. And are willing to be more transparent. And unlike the Elk Konnected School Board Members we now have. Be sure to vote this next April to replace at least 4 of the 5 seats that come up for voting. Vote Em Out !

Who's idea was it to crown the football field for $7000.00 without a contract and did not stipulate topsoil for the crown. The college degreed elite, that's who ! What did they get tons and tons of dirt heavily ladened with clay and boulders and big roots. Is this the kind of School Board you want over seeing your childrens education?  Yes, it is the School Board of Education ----- Not the School Board of Construction !



Fair Warning !           Above and Below!        Fair Warning !          Above and Below!        Fair Warning !          Above and Below!        Fair Warning !          Above and Below!

If you want to continue the Elk County property tax breaks
keep Ritz in as County Commissioner.
Vote in November for Ritz
or
prepare to pay the Taxman more property taxes !
I do not live in his district so I can not vote for him,
but you sure can.
If you live District 1 !

Just my opinion and suggestion --- do what you will !

HHS Report:
1,295,571 Obamacare Enrollees
May or May Not Be Legal Citizens

A devastating new Health and Human Services (HHS) Inspector General report released on Tuesday reveals that the Obama administration has yet to determine whether 1,295,571 of the over 8 million Obamacare enrollees are U.S. citizens lawfully in the country.

The finding, located on page 11 of the report, states that 44% of the remaining 2,611,780 application "inconsistencies" are related to verifying "Citizenship/national status/lawful presence." Another 960,492 application inconsistencies were related to verifying whether subsidy applicants provided accurate income information.

Moreover, the Inspector General report only covered the federal Obamacare exchanges to determine how the Obama administration resolved verification problems through December 2013. As for the 15 state-run Obamacare exchanges, the report says four--Oregon, Nevada, Vermont, and Massachusetts--are simply "unable to resolve inconsistencies."

As the Washington Post reported in May, as many as one million Obamacare enrollees may be receiving incorrect taxpayer-funded subsidies due to Obamacare's continued technical failures and inability to properly verify income and citizenship eligibility.

One year ago, conservatives warned that the Obama administration's decision to use the so-called "honor system" for income eligibility was merely a backdoor way to get as many individuals on the public dole as possible.

The Office of Inspector General determined that "the federal marketplace was generally incapable of resolving most inconsistencies."   

Obamacare will cost U.S. taxpayers $2.6 trillion over the next ten years.

Law of the Land Comix
 
Based upon "Will Insurers Ever Say Enough's Enough To Obamacare?"

Obamacare isn't the law of the land.  It's an ever-evolving set of lawless dictates from bureaucrats and other miscreants in Washington.

It must be destroyed, defunded, repealed or otherwise nuked from orbit.  It's the only way to be sure.

And any so-called Republican who refuses to commit to such a course of action should be expelled from consideration as a serious candidate!

New studies:
'Conspiracy theorists' sane,
while government dupes
are crazy and hostile

21st Century Wire says...

These four different university studies listed below reveal a lot about the psychology of official story 'gatekeepers' and how irrational and emotionally unstable they become when challenged with an alternative view...

****

Recent studies by psychologists and social scientists in the US and UK suggest that contrary to mainstream media stereotypes, those labeled "conspiracy theorists" appear to be saner than those who accept the official versions of contested events.

The most recent study was published on July 8th by psychologists Michael J. Wood and Karen M. Douglas of the University of Kent (UK). Entitled "What about Building 7? A social psychological study of online discussion of 9/11 conspiracy theories," the study compared "conspiracist" (pro-conspiracy theory) and "conventionalist" (anti-conspiracy) comments at news websites.

The authors were surprised to discover that it is now more conventional to leave so-called conspiracist comments than conventionalist ones: "Of the 2174 comments collected, 1459 were coded as conspiracist and 715 as conventionalist." In other words, among people who comment on news articles, those who disbelieve government accounts of such events as 9/11 and the JFK assassination outnumber believers by more than two to one. That means it is the pro-conspiracy commenters who are expressing what is now the conventional wisdom, while the anti-conspiracy commenters are becoming a small, beleaguered minority.

Perhaps because their supposedly mainstream views no longer represent the majority, the anti-conspiracy commenters often displayed anger and hostility: "The research... showed that people who favoured the official account of 9/11 were generally more hostile when trying to persuade their rivals."

Additionally, it turned out that the anti-conspiracy people were not only hostile, but fanatically attached to their own conspiracy theories as well. According to them, their own theory of 9/11 – a conspiracy theory holding that 19 Arabs, none of whom could fly planes with any proficiency, pulled off the crime of the century under the direction of a guy on dialysis in a cave in Afghanistan – was indisputably true. The so-called conspiracists, on the other hand, did not pretend to have a theory that completely explained the events of 9/11: "For people who think 9/11 was a government conspiracy, the focus is not on promoting a specific rival theory, but in trying to debunk the official account."

In short, the new study by Wood and Douglas suggests that the negative stereotype of the conspiracy theorist – a hostile fanatic wedded to the truth of his own fringe theory – accurately describes the people who defend the official account of 9/11, not those who dispute it.

IMAGE: Few are willing ask why over 1000 car were fried up to a mile from the WTC on 911.

Additionally, the study found that so-called conspiracists discuss historical context (such as viewing the JFK assassination as a precedent for 9/11) more than anti-conspiracists. It also found that the so-called conspiracists to not like to be called "conspiracists" or "conspiracy theorists."

Both of these findings are amplified in the new book Conspiracy Theory in America by political scientist Lance deHaven-Smith, published earlier this year by the University of Texas Press. Professor deHaven-Smith explains why people don't like being called "conspiracy theorists": The term was invented and put into wide circulation by the CIA to smear and defame people questioning the JFK assassination! "The CIA's campaign to popularize the term 'conspiracy theory' and make conspiracy belief a target of ridicule and hostility must be credited, unfortunately, with being one of the most successful propaganda initiatives of all time."

In other words, people who use the terms "conspiracy theory" and "conspiracy theorist" as an insult are doing so as the result of a well-documented, undisputed, historically-real conspiracy by the CIA to cover up the JFK assassination. That campaign, by the way, was completely illegal, and the CIA officers involved were criminals; the CIA is barred from all domestic activities, yet routinely breaks the law to conduct domestic operations ranging from propaganda to assassinations.

DeHaven-Smith also explains why those who doubt official explanations of high crimes are eager to discuss historical context. He points out that a very large number of conspiracy claims have turned out to be true, and that there appear to be strong relationships between many as-yet-unsolved "state crimes against democracy." An obvious example is the link between the JFK and RFK assassinations, which both paved the way for presidencies that continued the Vietnam War. According to DeHaven-Smith, we should always discuss the "Kennedy assassinations" in the plural, because the two killings appear to have been aspects of the same larger crime.

Psychologist Laurie Manwell of the University of Guelph agrees that the CIA-designed "conspiracy theory" label impedes cognitive function. She points out, in an article published in American Behavioral Scientist (2010), that anti-conspiracy people are unable to think clearly about such apparent state crimes against democracy as 9/11 due to their inability to process information that conflicts with pre-existing belief.

In the same issue of ABS, University of Buffalo professor Steven Hoffman adds that anti-conspiracy people are typically prey to strong "confirmation bias" – that is, they seek out information that confirms their pre-existing beliefs, while using irrational mechanisms (such as the "conspiracy theory" label) to avoid conflicting information.

The extreme irrationality of those who attack "conspiracy theories" has been ably exposed by Communications professors Ginna Husting and Martin Orr of Boise State University. In a 2007 peer-reviewed article entitled "Dangerous Machinery: 'Conspiracy Theorist' as a Transpersonal Strategy of Exclusion," they wrote:

"If I call you a conspiracy theorist, it matters little whether you have actually claimed that a conspiracy exists or whether you have simply raised an issue that I would rather avoid... By labeling you, I strategically exclude you from the sphere where public speech, debate, and conflict occur."
But now, thanks to the internet, people who doubt official stories are no longer excluded from public conversation; the CIA's 44-year-old campaign to stifle debate using the "conspiracy theory" smear is nearly worn-out. In academic studies, as in comments on news articles, pro-conspiracy voices are now more numerous – and more rational – than anti-conspiracy ones.

No wonder the anti-conspiracy people are sounding more and more like a bunch of hostile, paranoid cranks.

Obama grants wind industry permit to kill eagles,
ruffling more than feathers

On Eagles' wings: Solomon, a 14-year-old golden eagle, is unable to fly or survive in the wild because his wing was severed by a wind turbine. Despite a 1940 protection act, a California wind energy generator will not be penalized for killing a limited number of eagles.

The Washington Times

Wednesday, July 2, 2014

By sacrificing a few bald eagles, the Obama administration may have opened a can of worms.

In a bid to give alternative energy sources a boost, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has quietly granted a California wind energy farm a permit to kill a limited number of endangered bald and golden eagles that get sliced up in its giant turbines. But last week's free pass is sparking anger from wildlife advocates and from free market advocates who ask why they don't qualify for the same dispensation.

The American Bird Conservancy filed a lawsuit last week against the 6-month-old federal rule expanding permits for killing bald and golden eagles from a maximum of five to 30 years, charging the Interior Department with "multiple violations of federal law."

Conservancy spokesman Bob Johns said the organization is on board with green energy but the Obama administration has gone too far with incentives for the wind industry. The incentives include optional guidelines on environmental rules and production tax credits.

"We know we need renewables, and that's fine. We're not saying shut them down, we're just saying, 'Hey, enough's enough, bring them into the same ballpark that everyone else is in,'" said Mr. Johns. "Give them regulations, tell them where they need to site these things, where they shouldn't site them. Don't give them a set of, 'Gee, it would be nice if you did this, but if you don't, it's OK.'"

Last week, the Fish and Wildlife Service ruffled feathers by issuing what officials called a first-of-its-kind permit that allows a 50-turbine Northern California wind farm to kill up to five golden eagles over five years. In exchange, the developer agreed to retrofit 133 utility poles to reduce eagle deaths by electrocution.

"We can't solve the problem of eagle mortality at wind farms overnight," Fish and Wildlife Service Director Daniel Ashe said in a statement. "But this common-sense solution merits the support of all who advocate for the long-term conservation of eagles."

"This is not a program to kill eagles," John Anderson, director of siting policy at the American Wind Energy Association, told The Associated Press late last year. "This permit program is about conservation."

Among those stunned by the agency's move were residents of King Cove, Alaska. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell ruled in December that those in the remote fishing village could not build an 11-mile gravel road to a nearby airport because it would affect eelgrass that serves as a way-stop meal for migratory birds.

"We'd have much less impact on the birds with our road than these wind farms have on the eagles," said Della Trumble, a spokeswoman for the King Cove Corp. and the Agdaagux tribe. "It's another slap in the face. It doesn't make sense."

The administration's preferential treatment is designed to help boost the wind energy industry as part of a strategy to reduce fossil fuel use, which President Obama has described as a necessary step in combating climate change.


"The changes in this permitting program will help the renewable energy industry and others develop projects that can operate in the longer term while ensuring bald and golden eagles continue to thrive for future generations," Ms. Jewell said in a December statement.

But free market advocates argue that the Obama administration is playing favorites by letting the wind industry bypass regulations that hold back other energy providers. The Bureau of Land Management decided last week to cordon off 400,000 acres from energy development in Utah and Colorado in anticipation of a listing to preserve the numbers of the Gunnison sage-grouse.

Michael Sandoval, an energy analyst with the Independence Institute in Denver, said there is inevitably enormous outrage when sea gulls or ducks are coated with oil after a spill, but much less concern over wind turbines that chop eagles in half or cause bats to explode.

"Preferred energy policy favoring wind produces double standards. Think of the rancor if oil and gas companies were allowed such a government dispensation," said Mr. Sandoval. "Thirty years represents not only the theoretical life cycle of the turbines themselves, but an eternity in public policy. No other industry is allowed 'takings' permits that last an entire generation."
