We have been going down a socialist road in a police state. If people don't realize that... then they are totally asleep. Even those who have stood behind Obama, need to wake up and see where this country is headed. I will say, I voted for Obama. I bought all that "Hope and Change and Yes We Can"! I believed we would get back to the free country we once were. I was sadly wrong, and somehow I knew that instinctively at his inauguration. I have never watched an Obama speech etc. since.
We have gone down a road of losing most of our freedoms. If people still think we are free, they need to take a closer look at the policies enacted the last couple of years and all the bills the Congress and Senate have passed. Also look at the things they have not done, including any federal budget for 2011. Has one MSM outlet taken the government to task on us carrying on without a Federal budget? NO! It has not been discussed. Why? It is our constitution that keeps being trampled on. In fact is there much left of the constitution lived by, from this government?
Free Speech? Well, no.... people get arrested now for rallying in Washington D.C. all the time now. They don't have a permit to rally or other such things. We have to have permission to demonstrate on the streets of the U.S. now, otherwise we are arrested. Besides that, all who demonstrate and rally for a cause, their pictures are taken and their information is submitted to a fusion center. They are then put on a list of "possible terrorist", simply for voicing their peaceful opinions of a cause.
Do we have a right not to be spied on by our government anymore? Well, no.... people's credit card purchases and purchases using value cards at stores, are tracked by the government.
Do we have a right of freedom of movement? Well, no..... Everyone is considered a suspect and is molested or naked body scans are done, if traveling on a plane. Also our roads have police check points at times. Cars are inspected and people are searched, without warrants or provocation.
Do we have freedom of our own home privacy? Well, no.... especially if you have a child, the government is allowed to come in and inspect your home, for the least of reasons.
Do we have a justice system that works for the citizens? Well, no.... We have a justice system which works for banks and corporations. Look at the foreclosure fraud. Judges know the banks don't have a right to foreclose, yet they still let them, with fraudulent paperwork. Also, due to the Patriot act any citizen of the U.S. can be considered a "terrorist" for speaking out and they can be taken by the government and held with out a trial or even acknowledgment from the government they are being held.
Will we be able to even grow our own food or have a choice of what food we eat? No.... not when S 510 bill takes affect. We will have lost our freedom of choice in what we put in our bodies and where we get our food from.
The list goes on and on.. of our losing of our freedoms. It did not start with Obama, it started many many years ago, but Obama and the elected officials in Washington, have taken it to the extreme.
When will people truly wake up to the fact we are not living in a Free country anymore? When will they stop accepting how the MSM spins all the clamp downs are good things? When will people wake up, to the fact they have lost their rights in every way? Will they realize it, when the military are patrolling our streets?
Here is Olbermann and his blasting Obama - saying "You are not the President we elected" basically.
