Anyone who watches cop dramas on television knows about the 'good cop' 'bad cop' technique used in interrogations. The bad cop conducts a brutal questioning of a suspect and then the good cop steps in and says a few nice things to win the suspects friendship and get the answers. Right now, Obama has all the aspects of a really bad cop/politician. He is as corrupt as any that has been vomited from the bowels of Chicago politics. He has looted the U.S. Treasury to fill the pockets of his supporters and virtually bankrupted America in the process. His popularity ratings are almost as low as that of Congress itself. In other words, Obama is in desperate need of an image makeover.
While Obama is as far left as anyone who has ever occupied the White House, he is being portrayed by his leftist supporters in the news media as something akin to middle of the road Democrat. But that isn't enough to sway the voters. So he needed something concrete to boost his image. Those asshole Republicans who we gave control of the House of Representatives to in the 2010 elections joined in supporting some Orwellian measures attached to the National Defense Authorization Act and HR 1540 was passed by 95 Democrats and 227 Republicans. Later on, the Senate passed their version of S.1867 with 48 Democrats and 44 Republicans.
Now of course, appropriating money for the National Defense is a popular thing among conservatives and so is fighting terrorism but I wonder how many read the amendments that were tacked on to the bill and considered how a would be tyrant could use them. The Orwellian proposal contained in Section 1031, now passed by Congress to allow the U.S. military to violate the Posse Comitatus Act,
a United States federal law prohibiting members of the military from
exercising powers that maintain "law and order" on non-federal property and arrest and detain, without rights, any U.S. citizen whom the government has suspected of being enemies of the United States.
SEC. 1031. of National Defense Authorization Act reads AFFIRMATION OF AUTHORITY OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE UNITED
STATES TO DETAIN COVERED PERSONS PURSUANT TO THE AUTHORIZATION FOR USE
OF MILITARY FORCE. None other than the ACLU has described this as: "The worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial provision is
in S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill..."
Now the questionable section of this bill has portrayed the U.S. government as being on the verge of a Police State. So who comes to our rescue riding high on his white horse? None other that the most leftist anti-American politician in Washington, Barack Hussein Obama. And in today's news as reported by ABC affiliate WCPO in Cincinnati,
Obama makes push to change terror bill
By DONNA CASSATA Associated Press
WASHINGTON
- President Barack Obama and his national security team are appealing
to lawmakers for last-minute changes to a sweeping defense bill that
mandates military custody for terrorism suspects linked to al-Qaida,
including those captured within the U.S.
The legislation is
caught in an escalating dispute between the White House and Congress
over the politically charged issue of whether to treat suspected
terrorists as prisoners of war or criminals.

There it is. Obama the good cop. Obama, friend of Muslims worldwide, friend of the New Black Panther Party, friend of domestic terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, now opposes this bill to allow the apprehension of American citizens and deny them their Constitutional Rights. This works well for Obama both ways. First, conservatives and independents are afraid that since Homeland Security has already classified Pro-Life, 2nd Amendment supporters and returning military veterans as possible domestic terrorists (while ignoring the followers of radical Islamic fundamentalism who comprise 99.9% of all the terrorists apprehended in America) it would or could be those conservatives who are against Obama who would be rounded up and put in a concentration camp. Second, the actual Islamic terrorists now won't have to worry that they will be rounded up and sent to those real concentration camps after Obama has the bill changed.
Read my blog from Friday, December 2, 2011 for more info on that last part: Who are the enemies of America and what does the government plan to do with them?
So wait and see the leftist news media make a really big deal when their hero Barack Hussein Obama convinces Congress to remove Section 1031 from the National Defense Authorization Act and saves America from the Gulag. Not too surprising since he is trying to improve his image and get reelected next year.
