Came to me as an e-mail. We all know it but others have to see how their vote works also to KEEP SOMEONE FROM BEING PRESIDENT as brought out in Stone’s post. This would scare everyone but the liberals because you can’t scare blind sheep!. Be sure to read below the fold because it is long.

Obama’s Second Term Transformation Plans  
 
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 
1860.This statement is not hyperbole. If Barack Obama is re-elected the 
United States will never be the same, nor will it be able to re-capture 
its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of 
mankind. 
 
The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obama’s 
first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable 
him and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of 
“transforming America ” in his second term regardless of which 
political party controls Congress. That is why his re-election team is 
virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic 
Party office holders. 
 
The most significant accomplishment of Obama’s first term is to make 
Congress irrelevant. Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of 
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, the Democrats have succeeded in creating 
an imperial and, in a second term, a potential dictatorial presidency. 
 
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the 
Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media 
was in an Obama worshipping stupor, a myriad of laws were passed and 
actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the 
executive branch. 
 
The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration. This 
tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees 
would have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and 
enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would 
subsequently write.  
 
For example, in the 2,700 pages of ObamaCare there are more than 2,500 
references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services. There are 
more than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they “shall” 
do something and more than 200 times when they “may” take at their sole 
discretion some form of regulatory action. On 139 occasions, the law 
mentions that the “Secretary determines.” In essence one person, 
appointed by and reporting to the president, will be in charge of the 
health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully 
operational in 2014. 
 
The same is true in the 2,319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform 
Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control 
by fiat the nation’s financial, banking and investment sectors. The 
bill also creates new agencies, such as the Consumer Financial 
Protection Bureau, not subject to any oversight by Congress. This 
overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all 
with the intent of granting unfettered power to the executive 
branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates. 
 
Additionally, the Obama administration has, through its unilaterally 
determined rule making and regulatory powers, created laws out of whole 
cloth. The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues 
new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and 
change environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical 
green agenda never approved by Congress. The same is true of the Energy 
and Interior Departments among many others..  
 
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by 
Congress. The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly 
impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages. 
 
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees 
that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were 
able to take full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat 
controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the 
current Congress.  
 
Additionally, Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican 
controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation 
to roll back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or 
usurped by them. His veto will not be overridden as there will always 
be at least 145 Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in 
agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to 
use Chicago style political tactics. 
 
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure 
to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists. 
 
The most significant power Congress has is the control of the 
purse-stringsas all spending must be approved by them. However, once 
re-elected, Barack Obama, as confirmed by his willingness to do or say 
anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics, would not only 
threaten government shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments 
to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and 
forcing a Republican controlled Congress to surrender to his 
demands, thus neutering their ability to control the administration 
through spending constraints.  
 
Further, this administration has shown contempt for the courts by 
ignoring various court orders, e.g. the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling 
moratorium, as well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by 
Congress. The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of 
corruption as part of the most dishonest and deceitful administration 
in American history. In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and 
his minions will become more blatant as he will not have to be 
concerned with re-election.  
 
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law, a Supreme Court ruling or 
the Constitution? No one. Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be 
unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people. 
 
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of 
Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on 
re-taking the House and Senate. That goal, while worthy and necessary, 
is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated. The nation is not 
dealing with a person of character and integrity but someone of 
single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism. Judging by his 
actions, words and deeds during his first term, he does not intend to 
work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but 
rather to force his radical agenda on the American people through the 
power he has usurped or been granted. 
 
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the 
foundersin the hope that over the years only those people of high moral 
character and integrity would assume the reins of power. However, 
knowing that was not always possible, they dispersed power over three 
distinct and independent branches as a check on each other. 
 
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its 
constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch, the 
Congress, to a chief executive devoid of any character or integrity 
coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when 
the chief executive ignores them 

Conservatives, Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must 
come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in 
denying Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal. All resources 
must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress 
and the various committee chairmanships.
