The True Obama Agenda

Subject: Cloward-Piven Government

Article from The American Thinker
by James Simpson – February 10, 2010

The TRUE Obama Agenda.
It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact.
In September of last year, American Thinker published my article, Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis. Part of a series, it connected then-presidential candidate Barack Obama to individuals and organizations practicing a malevolent strategy for destroying our economy and our system of government. Since then, the story of that strategy has found its way across the blogosphere, onto the airwaves of radio stations across the country, the Glenn Beck television show, Bill O’Reilly, and now Mark Levin.

The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy, and we can all be grateful to David Horowitz and his ‘Discover the Networks’ for originally exposing and explaining it to us. He describes it as:

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.

Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven were two lifelong members of Democratic Socialists of America who taught sociology at Columbia University (Piven later went on to City University of New York). In a May 1966 Nation magazine article titled “The Weight of the Poor,” they outlined their strategy, proposing to use grassroots radical organizations to push ever more strident demands for public services at all levels of government.

The result, they predicted, would be “a profound financial and political crisis” that would unleash “powerful forces … For major economic reform at the national level.”

They implemented the strategy by creating a succession of radical organizations, most notable among them the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), with the help of veteran organizer Wade Rathke. Their crowning achievement was the “Motor Voter” act, signed into law by Bill Clinton in 1993 with Cloward and Piven standing behind him.

As we now know, ACORN was one of the chief drivers of high-risk mortgage lending that eventually led to the financial crisis. But the Motor Voter law was another component of the strategy. It created vast vulnerabilities in our electoral system, which ACORN then exploited.

ACORN’s vote registration scandals throughout the U. S. are predictable fallout.

The Motor Voter law has also been used to open another vulnerability in the system: the registration of vast numbers of illegal aliens, who then reliably vote Democrat. Herein lies the real reason Democrats are so anxious for open borders, security be damned.

It should be clear to anyone with a mind and two eyes that this president and this Congress do not have our interests at heart. They are implementing this strategy on an unprecedented scale by flooding America with a tidal wave of poisonous initiatives, orders, regulations, and laws. As Rahm Emmanuel said, “A crisis is a terrible thing to waste.”

The real goal of “health care” legislation, the real goal of “cap-and-trade,” and the real goal of the “stimulus” is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control. Do not be deluded by the propaganda. These initiatives are vehicles for change. They are not goals in and of themselves except in their ability to deliver power. They will make matters much worse, for that is their design.

This time, in addition to overwhelming the government with demands for services, Obama and the Democrats are overwhelming political opposition to their plans with a flood of apocalyptic legislation. Their ultimate goal is to leave us so discouraged, demoralized, and exhausted that we throw our hands up in defeat. As Barney Frank said, “the middle class will be too distracted to fight.”

These people are our enemies. They don’t use guns, yet, but they are just as dangerous, determined, and duplicitous as the communists we faced in the Cold War, Korea , Vietnam , and bush wars across the globe, and the Nazis we faced in World War II.

It is time we fully internalized and digested this fact, with all its ugly ramifications. These people have violated countless laws and could be prosecuted, had we the political power. Not only are their policies unconstitutional, but deliberately so — the goal being to make the Constitution irrelevant. Their spending is off the charts and will drive us into hyperinflation, but it could be rescinded, had we the political power. These policies are toxic, but they could be stopped and reversed, had we the political power. Their ideologies are poisonous, but they could be exposed for what they are, with long jail sentences as an object lesson, had we the political power.

Every single citizen who cares about this country should be spending every minute of his or her spare time lobbying, organizing, writing, and planning. Fight every initiative they launch. It is all destructive. If we are to root out this evil, it is critical that in 2010 we elect competent, principled leaders willing to defend our Constitution and our country. Otherwise, the malevolent cabal that occupies the government today will become too entrenched.

After that, all bets are off.

NRCC Announces Allen West is “On the Radar”

At the REC (Republican Executive Committee) meeting tonight, Chairman Sid Dinerstein reported that the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) had announced LTC Allen West as an “On the Radar” candidate. This is the first step of its Young Guns program. The Young Guns program assist U.S. House candidates during their elections.
A quote from the allenwestforcongress.com website: “The NRCC is committed to working with Allen West as he continues to meet the rigorous goals of the Young Guns program,” said NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions. “With all that Allen West has accomplished in just a few short months, I am confident that he will be successful in his effort to win this seat for Republicans and keep the Democrats accountable for their reckless anti-jobs agenda.”

Allen West was greeted by the REC members with a standing applause. West acknowledged he has been recognized not only by the NRCC and over 2 million hits on YouTube but by the the other side. SEIU and ACORN will be getting involved. It’s time to stop being a cheerleader and to join the fight. LTC Allen quoted Plato, “Those who refuse to engage in politics will ruled by their inferiors.”

RPOF in Turmoil

Under pressure for immediately favoring Gov Crist over Marco Rubio in the US Senate primary race and alleged mismanagement of party finances, on Jan. 5, 2010, Chairman of the Republican Party of FL, Jim Greer announced his resignation effective Feb. 20. On Jan. 8, Vice Chair Allen Cox also resigned from his position.

At tonight’s REC meeting, Sid Dinerstein announced that there are some calling for the Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer to also resign.

Chairman Dinerstein said the RPOF is an embarrassment. RPOF Executive Director Delmar Johnson was receiving $400,000+ salary, three times more than the Governor’s pay. Greer and Johnson had made a secret contract. Not to mention, RPOF chartered a plane to D.C. for Senator LeMieux’s swearing in ceremony at the tune of $15,000.

Next week, at the RPOF executive committee meeting in Orlando, State Committee Woman Sharon Day or State Senator John Thrasher will be voted as a replacement to Jim Greer.

It should be an interesting meeting. If you are interested in attending, please contact Fran Hancock or Peter Feaman.

Joe Budd Endorses Ed Lynch

February, 10 at the REC (Republican Executive Committee) of PBC meeting, former candidate Joe Budd announced that his one mistake during his campaign for US House #19, was saying he would not support Ed Lynch if he won. Budd said he could not support Jim McCormick and therefore would give his support to Lynch.
Lynch thanked the REC for their support and encouraged each member to become involved in the campaign. Chairman Sid Dinerstein announced the Republican Party of PBC will take over the absentee voter follow up. He explained that many voters are unaware if they requested an absentee ballot in 2008, they will receive an absentee ballot for the April 13th election. Charlotte Beasley volunteered to chair this committee. Phone calls, chase mailers and walks will be needed. Please contact Ed Lynch’s campaign to volunteer.

Grassroots training from the Nat’l Teaparty Convention

Many of you may have heard that there was a convention in Nashville this weekend – not trying to form a single Teaparty organization or political party, but bringing together a subset of groups from across the country to discuss and agree on a series of items. Portions of the event were televised on C-SPAN, and are available for viewing online.

This is an opportunity to get some grassroots training – so check it out!

Sarah Palin – Concluding Remarks

CD 19 Results

Ted Deutch is the winner for the Democrats with a 4:1 vote margin over Ben Graber.

In the Republican race, the vote was so close that a recall was expected, but a vote adjustment in Palm Beach County put Ed Lynch over the 0.5% margin and Joe Budd conceded.

The counts provided by the Supervisors of Election in Palm Beach and Broward Counties are as follows:

Turnout for this election was very light. In a district with 344,912 eligible voters, 36,278 people voted – that’s 10.5%. If you compare the parties, Democrats had the edge in turnout with 28,118 voting out of about 234228 or 12%, while 8160 Republicans voted out of about 110684 or 7%. Since a Republican win would need a big percentage of that party’s voters going to the polls, the lack of interest in the primary does not bode well.
