  John Boehner Is Ordering Republicans To Fund ObamaCare!

 Boehner has thrown down the gauntlet and now that John Boehner has 
played his 
hand, we - the American people - must play ours.

 Our elected officials must make a choice, and they need to make it 
now. Let 
them know that they can either do what Mr. Boehner wants, or they can do what 
the American 
people want and DEFUND OBAMACARE.

  Is The Federal Government Really Hiring "An Army Of ObamaCare Detectives."


 You've already heard the news that government agents will be given 
the 
authority under ObamaCare to barge into your home, and you already know about 
the "ObamaCare 
Navigators," ... the Obama-bots and so-called "Community Organizers" (and 
potentially even 
people with criminal records) who will be given access to your most private 
financial 
information.

 But now the Daily Mail UK is reporting that the "Feds are building 
a detective 
squad to target consumers and companies that don't follow Obamacare's rules."

 Their words, not ours...

 The Daily Mail goes on to say: "More than 1,600 new employees 
hired by the U.S. 
Department of Health and Human Resources in the aftermath of ObamaCare's 
passage include 
just two described as 'consumer safety' officers, but 86 tasked with 'criminal 
investigating' – indicating that the agency is building an army of detectives 
to sleuth 
out violations of a law that many in Congress who supported it still find 
confusing."

 John Boehner's political schemes be damned. If he believes that 
keeping 
ObamaCare around, so he can pretend to fight it, is "good politics," then our 
elected 
officials must be disabused of that idiotic notion here and now.

 The insanity must end today. Simply put, unless we stop ObamaCare 
in the next 
30 days, it will likely be here to stay and all of the nightmares that they 
told you could 
never happen will come true in short order.

  More Shoes Are Dropping. Medicaid For Everyone Is Just Around The Corner.


 Not only have health insurance premiums risen, on average, by more 
than 
$3600.00 since 2008, but major employers like UPS, the University of Virginia, 
and a number 
of local governments have just announced that they'll be dropping coverage. 
They aren't the 
first, they won't be the last... and millions of people will be forced into the 
socialist 
single-payer pool.

 Conservative icon Gary Bauer summed up what is going on: "This 
growing trend 
highlights another of the perverse incentives in ObamaCare: it encourages 
companies to end 
health care coverage entirely and dump entire families into ObamaCare's 
exchange programs. 
This shouldn't surprise anyone."

 "Barack Obama has spoken openly about his support for a socialist 
single-payer 
system, adding, 'But I don't think we're going to be able to eliminate employer 
coverage 
immediately. There's going to be potentially some transition process.'"

 "ObamaCare is that 'transition process' of 'eliminating employer 
coverage,' one 
giant step in the 'fundamental transformation' of America into a 
European-style, socialist 
welfare state."

 But our fight to maintain the American way of live is winnable. 
Senator Ted 
Cruz recently said: "Republicans have the votes to make defunding possible," 
and he's right. 
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. If Republicans didn't have the votes, 
Boehner wouldn't 
be throwing down the gauntlet.

 Boehner has made his move and now we must make ours. Win, lose or 
draw, we must 
make it clear to our elected officials that they must now make a choice. They 
can either 
side with John Boehner and Barack Obama, and fund ObamaCare, or they can side 
with the 
American people and defund it.

 They have the votes... they can do it... it's that simple.

[APFN] War Power and Military Establishment Clauses

War Power and Military Establishment Clauses – Article I Section 8, 
Clauses 11, 12, 13 and 14 of the Constitution


The United States Constitution

The War and Military Establishment Clauses are among Congress’ 
enumerated powers found in the Constitution of the United States, 
Article. I. Section. 8 
., 
clauses 11, 12, 13, and 14:
FULL REPORT:/VIDEO>> 



(Clause 11 – War power)

[The Congress shall have Power] To declare War, grant Letters of Marque 
and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;


(Clause 12 – Army)

[The Congress shall have Power] To raise and support Armies, but no 
Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two 
Years;


(Clause 13 – Navy)

[The Congress shall have Power] To provide and maintain a Navy;

(Clause 14 – Military establishment)

[The Congress shall have Power] To make Rules for the Government and 
Regulation of the land and naval Forces;


From the U.S. Senate web site: 



The “war powers” are defined here and in Article 2, Section 2 
. 
Congress declares war, while the president wages war. However, 
presidents have committed U.S. forces leading to conflict without 
congressional declaration of war in Korea, Vietnam, and other places, 
provoking national argument over the meaning of these powers. Congress’ 
control of funding the military provides another check on the executive 
branch.


Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no 
armaments industry. American makers of plowshares could, with time and 
as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk 
emergency improvisation of national defense; we have been compelled to 
create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions. Added to 
this, three and a half million men and women are directly engaged in the 
defense establishment. We annually spend on military security more than 
the net income of all United States corporations.


This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms 
industry is new in the American experience. The total influence — 
economic, political, even spiritual — is felt in every city, every State 
house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the 
imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend 
its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all 
involved; so is the very structure of our society.


In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of 
unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military 
industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced 
power exists and will persist.


We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties 
or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an 
alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the 
huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful 
methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.


Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our 
industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution 
during recent decades.


In this revolution, research has become central; it also becomes more 
formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is 
conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government.


Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been 
overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing 
fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the 
fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a 
revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs 
involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for 
intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds 
of new electronic computers.


The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal 
employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present 
and is gravely to be regarded
