Add these up one by one and you get a score that points to the fact that Barrack Hussein Obama is determined to turn America into a Marxist-Socialist society. All of the items in the preceding paragraphs have been put into place. All can be documented very easily. Before you disavow this do an Internet search. The last paragraph alone is not yet cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph.
Will it read as above or will it be a happier ending for most of America?
Don't just belittle the opposition. Search for the truth. We all need to pull together or watch the demise of a free democratic society. We need to seek the truth and take action for it will keep us FREE. Our biggest enemy is not China, Russia, North Korea or Iran. Our biggest enemy is our complacent selves. The government will not help, so we need to do it ourselves.

Mark Levin's Liberty Amendments
1) Term Limits: He proposes limiting service in both the House and Senate to 12 years. Yes, we’ve heard all the arguments about elections being the best limit. But the past 100 year has proven that to be false. As someone who works day and night to throw the bums out, I can tell you that is nearly impossible to throw them out with the amount of money they raise – precisely for their abuses of power. Levin also proves that limiting time in office was a highly regarded proposal during the Constitutional Congress.
2) Repealing the 17th Amendment: Levin proposes repealing the 17th amendment and vesting state legislators with the power to elect senators so that the power of states is not diluted, as originally feared by the framers of the Constitution.
3) Restoring the Judiciary to its proper role: The Judiciary was never meant to be an all-powerful institution in which five men in robes have the final say over every major policy battle in the country. In order to end judicial tyranny, Levin proposes limiting service to one 12-year term, and granting both Congress and the state legislatures the authority to overturn court decisions with the vote of three-fifths of both houses of Congress or state legislative bodies.
4) Limiting Taxation and Spending: Levin proposes a balanced budget amendment, limiting spending to 17.5% of GDP and requiring a three-fifths vote to raise the debt ceiling. He also proposes limiting the power to tax to 15% of an individual’s income, prohibiting other forms of taxation, and placing the deadline to file one’s taxes one day before the next federal election.
5) Limiting bureaucracy: He proposes an amendment to limit and sunset federal regulations and subject the existence of all federal departments to stand-alone reauthorization bills every three years.
6) Defining the Commerce Clause: Levin writes an amendment that, while technically unnecessary, is practically an imperative to restoring the original intent of the Commerce Clause. The amendment would make it clear that the commerce clause grants not power to actively regulate and control activity; rather to prevent states from impeding commerce among other states, as Madison originally intended.
7) Limiting Federal power to take private property
Allowing State Legislature to Amend the Constitution: Although the Framers intentionally made it difficult to amend the Constitution, they did so to preserve the Republic they created. However, the progressives have illegally altered our Republic through a silent and gradual coup without using the amendment process. If we are going to successfully push the aforementioned amendments, we will need an easier mechanism to force them through. The proposed amendment allows states to bypass Congress and propose an amendment with support of just two-thirds of the states (instead of three-fourths) and without convening a convention.
9) State Authority to Override Congress: A proposed amendment to allow states to override federal statutes by majority vote in two-thirds of state legislatures. The last two proposals are rooted in the idea that the states only agreed to the Constitution on condition that their power would not be diluted and that all federal power is derived from the states.
10) Protecting the Vote: A proposal to require photo ID for all federal elections and limit early voting.

Obamacare - Some Facts
Under ObamaCare, “seniors have been singled out and forced to bear a disproportionate share of the cost of a new entitlement for young people.”
(Chris Conover, “98 Percent of Individual Health Plans Flunk Obamacare Standards,” Forbes, 3/11/2013)
In 2012, a survey found that 74% of doctors would stop accepting Medicare patients or will leave Medicare entirely because of Obamacare.
(Marc Siegel, “How ObamaCare Hurts Seniors,” New York Daily News, 8/22/2012)
The American Medical Association opposed the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) created under ObamaCare which is authorized to make “arbitrary across-the-board cuts to physicians and other providers.”
(American Medical Association Web site, accessed 3/13/2013)
More than 20 percent of primary care doctors will not accept new Medicare patients due to low reimbursements for the care they provide. Under ObamaCare, by 2019 reimbursements to doctors for Medicare services will be below those for Medicaid, the healthcare program for the poor, which almost 50 percent of doctors refuse to accept.
(Scott W. Atlas, “IPAB: President Obama’s NICE Way To Ration Care To Seniors,” Forbes, 10/21/2012)
Starting in 2014 under ObamaCare, the unelected members of IPAB are required every year to make specific recommendations for cutting spending in Medicare. If an alternative to these recommendations is not passed by Congress and signed into law by the president, the unelected HHS Secretary is authorized to unilaterally make these cuts.
(Scott W. Atlas, “IPAB: President Obama’s NICE Way To Ration Care To Seniors,” Forbes, 10/21/2012)
Under ObamaCare, the nature of IPAB will keep it focused on short-term cuts because it has to make recommendations every year instead of focusing on long-term improvements to the quality of Medicare.
(Douglas Holtz-Eakin, “The Independent Payment Advisory Board and Access to Health Care,” American Action Forum, 10/23/2013)
Baa Baa Ba-rack
Baa Baa Ba-rack,
Have you any will?
"No sir, no sir;
I don't have the skill".
You've ruined our e-co-no-my,
And jobs have left for good;
You've turned your back on pointless crimes
By gangstas in the 'hood.
Our allies are afraid of you;
They don't trust what you say.
Your words embolden all our foes
With their plans to play and fray.
Your conscience should be laden
With embarrassment and guilt;
You're destroying a great nation
Our forefathers proudly built.
So, please go back from whence you came -
Chicago thinks you're wiser;
But better yet, Kenya could use
A community organizer!

Obamacare Blues

'Twas The Night Before Shutdown
‘Twas the night before shutdown
And all through the House,
A revised bill was written
For Harry Reid, that old louse.
The votes were all cast
By the congressmen there,
In hopes that the senators
Would accept this new dare.
But the Senate chimed in
Under Harry Reid’s voice;
Saying, “We won’t accept-
And there’s no other choice!”
Reid blamed the conservatives
For this disastrous mess;
But the people now have spoken,
And it's this, he won't address.
They exempted one another
From their tawdry health care “plan”;
Tho’ they know it puts the people
In the “fire, from the pan”.
Back and forth, all through the night
Both sides tossed the ball,
But the Senate wouldn’t budge an inch
‘Cause old Reid would always stall.
It’s all about the politics,
The arrogance and power;
Their hot air blew while the wall clock drew
The last bewitching hour.
“Cross the aisle“! “Compromise!”
The sordid words were heard.
With midnight fast approaching,
Their priorities were blurred.
They created lots of drama,
Afraid to do what was correct;
But they set the stage for the people’s rage
When it’s time to re-elect.
With pointed fingers, blame was placed
As the new day slowly dawns;
It’s WE THE PEOPLE who hold the bag,
And get treated like the pawns.
