Now Fact: All Aspects ObamaGov Completely Corrupt/Criminal

No, folks.  The Obama syndicate was never incompetent.  It was and is, however, the most corrupt, criminal and openly tyrannical US government, which is now openly attacking the USA and its people, that has existed in US history.  It has also, until recently, been able to keep all aspects of its tyranny under wraps…with the assistance and collaboration of the equally corrupt US media.  Even today, many media outlets are still working for Obama, in order to minimize his visible complicity in the assassinations of US citizens in Benghazi, his illegal spying on and record-seizing of news agencies and their reporters (to date the AP and Fox News), his illegal and Gestapo-like usage of one of the most powerful and suppressive agencies ever to exist…the IRS…to threaten and intimidate US citizens (aka conservatives) who do not agree with his Hitlerian and Stalinistic programs and policies with their own and their families’ personal destruction; along with Obama’s continuing active destruction of virtually every aspect of what was once the United States of America.

The ObamaGov is unabashedly a criminal syndicate that has been getting away with its criminalities via stonewalling Congress (which recently finally decided to actually fight back) during committee investigation questioning, providing the answer “I don’t know” to virtually everything asked of them (on Benghazi Hillary consistently said “I don’t know” and “what difference does it make” and regarding his DOJ Holder says he “knows nothing” about what‘s going on in his department if he is implicated in its ongoing criminalities).  And now, a top IRS official (who has been rewarded by Obama for her criminal behaviors with her new position of “Head Enforcer of ObamaCare“) Lois Lerner has invoked the Fifth Amendment against self-incrimination during today’s House Oversight Committee.  Sitting there with her stone-faced “you can’t touch me” demeanor, Lerner repeatedly told Chairman Darrell Issa ‘I refuse to answer any questions on the subject posed by the committee today’.   BTW, if you didn’t already know it, this scandal (and others around the country) was perpetrated by Lerner’s IRS lackeys who affected the let’s-go-after-all-Conservatives-and-Constitutionalist-and-get-’em-good programs.

Guys and gals, this is what I and other have been writing about for years.  I have repeatedly written that we are living under tyranny since 2009 when Obama began seizing power from both Congress and SCOTUS…with few to no “peeps” from either of those bodies.   Almost every day now, some new Obama scandal seems to be developing.   We certainly must wonder how long the dyed in the wool pro-Obama leftists and their media will continue to fall on swords and/or continue to support and protect this far-worse-than-Nixon illegal POTUS.  Are the media also supporting the criminalization and end of the USA?  Sure seems so…doesn’t it?

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places”
–Ephesians 6:12

Don’t be afraid to call evil by its name

http://bostonherald.com/print/news_opinion/columnists/joe_fitzgerald/2013/05/don_t_be_afraid_to_call_evil_by_its_name

What would help a lot right now, as the chilling reality of savagery engulfs us, would be a cultural green light to begin calling evil what it is, to begin calling it by its name, to stop dancing around demographics because of the fear someone, somewhere will take offense.

There is always someone, somewhere looking for a reason to be offended. Jesse Jackson has fashioned a lucrative career out of being perpetually peeved. It works if you know how to play the game.

And one of the reasons it works is that too many people who ought to know better allow themselves to be characterized as racists, xenophobes, homophobes, anti-Semites; it’s a long list.

It’s getting to a point where, even when you know there’s no hatred in your heart, you find yourself picking words the way a shopper picks tomatoes, looking for just the right ones, casting questionable ones aside.

This has been going on a long time.

Back in 1979, when the late Darryl Williams, then 15, was sentenced to live as a quadriplegic by a lowlife who shot him on the sidelines of a football game in Charlestown, this city refused to declare it a hate crime, evidence notwithstanding, fearful of possible ramifications in those turbulent days of anti-busing frenzy.

Misguided sensitivity trumped common sense, which it’s still doing today as civilized society tries to find ways to acknowledge we face a menacing foe while giving no offense to anyone wearing a burqa, hijab or turban.

It shouldn’t have to be pointed out that entire groups are not responsible for barbarians in their midst, but it also should not be uncomfortable to call those barbarians by their names, whether it’s in response to placing bombs at the feet of unsuspecting innocents, or the beheading of a young British soldier in broad daylight on a London street.

With their hands covered in that soldier’s blood, those self-proclaimed jihadists displayed their weapons to horrified onlookers, as one of them was heard to vow, “We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you. You people will never be safe.”

You people? Yes. Us, or the “infidels” as these madmen prefer to call anyone who doesn’t subscribe to the insanity of their toxic faith.

Remember, the last words of the hijackers who flew into the World Trade Center were, “All praise to Allah!”

Political correctness? Please.

If ever there was a time to deal with facts, not feelings, it’s now.

No offense to Allah, but God help us if we don’t wake up

Personality Types Theory and Application  (Wrap Up)

AND

Examining the Dynamics Behind the Destruction of Civilizations

We will have our final look at the Keirsey Temperament Sorter and the Myers Briggs Personality Type Indicator. 

We will also take a brief look at the NPP.  The inventory was developed by John M. Oldham, MD, MS - Senior Vice President and Chief of Staff, The Menninger Clinic.  Dr.  Oldham wrote the personality disorder section of the Diagnostic Service Manual IV and the DSM V.  This inventory is based on decades of scientific data and has a built in validation profile to prevent manipulation of the results.  This type of personality inventory is vitally important for any business.  People with personality disorders often seem like the “golden boy” or “Wonder Woman” and easily slip through the Human Resources department screening, later becoming a significant problem, which can do severe damage to a corporation.  We recommend that all employees and associates complete this inventory.

This inventory scans for pathological traits in all fourteen personality disorders.    These indicators also register the traits associated with personality tendencies that  are advantageous in an employment situation. 

Sam Sewell, Director of Best Self USA, a counseling clinic will present his research on these kinds of personality type indicators.

Then we will begin our examination of the demographic dynamics and value systems are present in the history of declining civilizations and how to avoid the same fate for American or Western civilization.  This discussion will be led by William Hutchins, MD

Please be prepared to suggest topics for future meetings.

RSVP is required, (limited seating.) Give Sam a call at 239-591-4565, or email: sams@bestselfusa.com

Refreshments & snacks are not provided; participants are encouraged to bring enough to share.

There is no fee to attend. Contributions to the Southwest Florida MENSA scholarship fund for gifted youth are encouraged.

The IRS: Destroying Liberty Since before You Were Born

By Todd Keister

In the fallout from the recent revelations about the Internal Revenue Service systematically persecuting conservative political groups and other enemies of President Obama, the establishment is putting on a good show of being shocked by the behavior.  The reality is that the IRS is and always has been a tool of oppression and is routinely used by those in power to destroy their opponents.

Once the income tax expanded to include nearly every wage-earner and company in the country, it was immediately seized upon as a potent weapon by the worst tyrants in American history.  Franklin Roosevelt loved the IRS and used it well to silence his opponents.  When he wasn't illegally wiretapping members of Congress or other enemies, he was dispatching revenue agents to trump up charges against anyone who dared to oppose him.  Roosevelt's own son, Elliot, said of his father, "[He] may have been the originator of the concept of employing the IRS as a weapon of political retribution."  Roosevelt sent his minions to destroy Senator Huey Long, radio commentator Boake Carter, Congressman Hamilton Fish, Former Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon, newspaper publishers William Randolph Hearst and Moses Annenberg, and dozens of others.  FDR also intervened to derail IRS investigations into corrupt Jersey City Democrat Frank Hague and then-Congressman Lyndon Johnson.

Mississippi newspaper publisher Hodding Carter was audited repeatedly during the 1950s when he made the unpopular decision to support the Supreme Court's desegregation rulings.  Likewise, Dr. Martin Luther King and several lawyers at his Southern Christian Leadership Conference were audited in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

John Kennedy and his little brother Bobby found the IRS valuable for intimidation, launching a massive tax probe of steel company executives who refused to set their prices at levels acceptable to Jack and Bobby.  As Robert Kennedy himself later said, "[w]e looked over all of them as individuals ... we were going for broke ... their expense accounts and where they'd been and what they were doing[.] ... I picked up all their records[.] ... All of them were subpoenaed for their personal records." 

In the mid-1960s, Missouri Senator Edward Long held hearings on the widespread corruption within the IRS.  In retaliation, the IRS leaked information to an editor at Life magazine about Long's ties to infamous union boss Jimmy Hoffa.  The result was Long's defeat in the 1968 Democratic primary.  The editor at Life, William Lambert, said that after Senator Long was defeated, he received a personal phone call from IRS Commissioner Sheldon Cohen offering congratulations.

President Richard Nixon knew the awesome power of the IRS to instill fear and silence opposition.  As Nixon once said about his choice to head the agency, "I want to be sure he is a ruthless son of a b****, that he will do what he's told, that every income-tax return I want to see I see, that he will go after our enemies and not our friends.  Now, it's as simple as that.  If he isn't, he doesn't get the job."
In 1996, Senator William Roth initiated the first comprehensive investigation and oversight hearings in 70 years on the tactics of the Internal Revenue Service.  In his 1999 book¹ detailing what the Senate Finance Committee discovered, he lays out a shocking tale of arrogance, corruption, mismanagement, malfeasance, harassment, and criminal activity.  Senator Roth describes law-abiding citizens, hounded for years by rouge IRS agents, ultimately being driven to suicide, and their relatives continuing to be harassed and publicly embarrassed long after burying their loved ones.

Not only does the virtually limitless power of the IRS make it an irresistible weapon for authoritarian presidents, but its boundless authority to snoop, harass, and destroy lives inevitably corrupts its personnel.  It is a universally recognized maxim that power corrupts -- and the IRS has more of it than any other entity in our country.  The agency employ three times as many personnel as the FBI and has detailed files on every taxpayer in the nation -- including your Social Security number and those of your children, every place you work, how much you make, what you invest in, with whom you do business, the cost of your mortgage, and your financial account numbers.  And the IRS answers to no one.

The arrogance of power was on full display as far back as 1925, when Senator James Couzens of Michigan was trying to conduct an investigation² into corruption within the Bureau of Internal Revenue (As the IRS was previously known).  During one hearing, Senator Couzens was called away from the committee proceedings by none other than Internal Revenue Commissioner David Blair, who brazenly served him with charges that he owed $11 million in back taxes.  After a costly and protracted legal fight, it was eventually determined that Senator Couzens was in fact owed a million-dollar refund.

That arrogance and abuse of power is only to be expected from an organization that has the authority to accuse anyone of criminal activity without any requirement of proof; if they accuse you of a crime, you bear the burden of proving yourself innocent.

A review of the Treasury Department's own Inspector General Reports for the past two years reveals the widespread nature of criminal activity at the IRS.  During that period alone, there were more than 17,000 complaints made to the inspector general's office involving IRS agents engaging in "bribery, theft, impersonation, taxpayer abuses, and false statements."

What this latest scandal -- and indeed, the entire history of the IRS -- clearly demonstrates is the fact that the income tax is wholly incompatible with a free society.   The notion that the government is entitled to a certain portion of your wages before you even receive your paycheck is a direct contradiction of the most basic tenet of liberty: private property.  It is no exaggeration to say that once Congress was granted the power to levy an unlimited tax upon incomes, its members assumed the power to render every American under absolute tyranny.  The 16^th Amendment imposes no limits on the income tax; quite literally, the Congress could vote tomorrow that Americans must pay all of their income directly to the government, and it would be legal and constitutional for them to do so.

The practical effect of all this has been the total abrogation of private property rights in America.  If the income of every American is essentially state property, by what means can a person obtain any other private property?  The income tax has made every wage-earner a slave to the federal government; the extent of his freedom is entirely dependent upon the whim of the Congress.

In 1871, on the eve of the repeal of Abraham Lincoln's Civil War income tax measure, the commissioner of internal revenue described the income tax as "the one of all others most obnoxious to the genius of our people, being inquisitorial in its nature, and dragging into public view an exposition of the most private pecuniary affairs of the citizen."  This is a very apt description; a person's income is a very private matter, which the government now exercises constant surveillance over.  Your employer reports to the government every cent you make.  Your bank and broker, under threat of fines or imprisonment, report every penny of interest or profit you accrue.  Likewise, you are required under penalty of law to file a tax return each year to reconcile your debt to the government.  As former treasury secretary Albert Gallatin is reported to have said about consumption taxes, "a severe inquisition must take place ... and extraordinary and dangerous powers must be given to the collectors."

Unless and until the income tax amendment is repealed and the IRS's 98,000 henchmen are sent packing, the abuses will continue, as they have for nearly a century.  Only when the government is no longer entitled to maintain constant surveillance over every citizen's personal financial affairs can we begin to restore the freedom Americans once enjoyed.  Like all men in all ages, those given extraordinary and dangerous power will use it to tyrannize others, and as such, this particular power has no place in a free land.
