Democracy Denied: How Obama is Ignoring You and Bypassing Congress to Radically Transform America – and How to Stop Him

GET IT NOW!

“This is a must-read for everyone who values our nation’s bedrock principles. What Obama is trying to unilaterally impose on the American people is nothing short of regulatory tyranny. Phil Kerpen breaks down the Obama administration’s regulatory onslaught and shows those of us who love the Constitution what we can do about it.”
—Mark Levin, bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio host

“Phil Kerpen offers both a warning and a lesson about a radical minority and its concerted efforts to control the lives and voices of all Americans. Democracy Denied is a literal guidebook on the progressive game plan—now it’s up to us to heed the warning.” Glenn Beck, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“Democracy Denied demonstrates how President Obama is packing federal agencies with handpicked liberal activists who are rewarding campaign allies, punishing opponents, and pushing the failed Keynesian fiscal policies Americans rejected at the ballot box in 2010. Phil Kerpen’s must-read book provides much-needed solutions to the unaccountable bureaucrats who seek to control what cars we drive, the foods we eat, and even the lights we use.” —U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina)

“Obama is on a mission—to conceal his socialist record behind a veil of moderation. Phil Kerpen pierces that veil and shows the Obama beneath. He has broken the Obama code.” —Dick Morris, Fox News contributor

“President Obama has sought from day one to bypass elected representatives in Congress and impose his liberal agenda by regulatory fiat. This unchecked regulatory assault is draining the lifeblood from our economy and eroding our liberties. Phil Kerpen’s book is an excellent tool for anyone seeking to understand the consequences of regulatory tyranny and the story of the REINS Act—the most important reform that, if passed, will restore accountability and balance to the regulatory process.” —U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky)

“You know Team Obama is up to no good, but you don’t even know the half of it. Phil Kerpen takes you inside all the back rooms and back doors that these left-wing power-grabbers have used to subvert the will of the people—and trample the rule of law. Democracy Denied exposes you to the true size and scope of the Obama regulatory Leviathan. Kerpen’s comprehensive research will make your blood boil and stir you to action.”
—Michelle Malkin, Fox News contributor and bestselling author of Culture of Corruption

“The American people are the most innovative in the world, but they are being held back by the Obama administration’s extreme regulatory agenda. Phil Kerpen cuts to the heart of this problem and shows us the path forward.” —U.S. Representative Mike Pence (R-Indiana)

“Federal regulations have the slippery tentacles of an octopus strangling businesses, families, and workers. Democracy Denied exposes the threats to economic freedom from Barack Obama’s gang of unelected regulatory zealots.” —Stephen Moore, senior economics writer and editorial board member at The Wall Street Journal

“The Obama socialist juggernaut is attempting to ride roughshod over the will of the people, skirt existing laws, and sideswipe the Constitution. In Democracy Denied, Phil Kerpen masterfully articulates the challenges we face, and, most importantly, provides common sense solutions and strategies you need to know.” —Jerry Doyle, nationally syndicated radio host

“As an elected city official, I have seen firsthand how the federal regulatory racket hurts local governments, citizens, and businesses. Phil Kerpen does an excellent job exposing abuses and offering constructive solutions to rein in the autocracy of unelected regulators.” —Erick Erickson, Editor of RedState.com

“Phil Kerpen has accomplished the impossible: he’s given us a rousing polemic against President Barack Obama without being polemical. He exposes Obama’s hidden agendas with take-no-prisoners investigative spadework instead of conspiracy-theory guesswork. And he shows us from the forefront of the battle how to stop Obama with no-nonsense legislative and political strategies that any citizen can help with.”
—Ron Arnold, Executive Vice President of the Center for the Defense of Free Enterprise, and bestselling author of EcoTerror

Warner Todd Huston interviews Neil Cavuto- is Neil the true ‘compassionate’ conservative?

Freedomist Curator October 4, 2011

Warner Todd Huston’s unique perspective interview with Neil Cavuto is making the rounds in the blogosphere today. In this interview, Warner shows a different side of Neil Cavuto, the side that has beat stage 4 cancer and is daily overcoming Multiple Sclerosis. Who says conservatives lack ‘compassion’? Certainly, after you read Warner Todd Huston’s interview, you can’t say Neil Cavuto does:

from http://www.publiusforum.com/2011/10/04/fox-news-15th-anniversary-mr-fox-neil-cavuto-hits-chicago/

A quintessential survivor Mr. Cavuto is a survivor of stage 4 cancer not to mention fighting Muscular Sclerosis for the last decade. So when it come to being embattled, Cavuto is no stranger to the concept.

The pressure he faces in his personal medical battles are naturally more pressing than the full-on, left-wing attack that he and his cable networks face on a daily basis, of course, but when ever one thinks of Fox News, one is inexorably drawn to those attacks by Fox’ enemies. I asked Neil if, after all these years, the vehemence of these attacks on Fox News surprised him any?

“Well it does, Warner,” Cavuto said, “because in the beginning, there was a time when we could have filled in hours with expletives and no one would have paid attention. I remember in the first four years no one was watching. It was like I was in the witness protection program and it took a while… I guess I’m surprised sometimes, Warner, with the vehemence with these remarks but I take it in stride. I try to focus on what I do. You know I bored people with this story many times but I repeat it for a reason. I’m not conservative or liberal, I’m not red or blue, I’m just green, I’m the nerd that follows the money; where it’s going where it’s not.”

While conservative ideals absolutely serve as Cavuto’s core, he told me that he was not bought and paid for by the far right. It really is all about the math.

“I was an intern for Jimmy Carter, I was critical of the bailouts when they began with George Bush, critical since… I guess I’m a cheapskate,” He admitted. “I don’t like money going out the door and not being held accountable. So, that’s my gig and people can take from it what ever they wish. But I have no agenda there, my only agenda is the money and where it’s going or more to the point not going.”

Trade War With China?

W R Collier Jr October 3, 2011

Senator Chuck Schumer To Introduce Tough Trade Sanctions Against China This Week? – William R. Collier Jr.

Sources on the Hill have revealed that Senator Charles Schumer is going to unveil a plan this week that is the equivalent of “a declaration of trade war” against China. The bill’s details are known beyond the general outline, which is to sanction China for what are deemed “unfair trade practices.”

Another source, who is familiar with the story and who is an expert in international finance, noted that, “what’s likely to happen is that this bill, if it is introduced and passed, will result in China taking the US to the WTO, where the US will likely lose and be forced to pay damages.” According to this source, “the amount of money involved in the dispute is less than a rounding error when compared to our GDP.”

This proposal, if it comes forth, could be calculated to inspire the Democrat base, represented by the radical leftists who are staging a small but disruptive protest on Wall Street. “Occupy Wall Sttreet” is a protest that is being financed by George Soros and other progressive elites and that is being organized by pro-Obama organizations, including labor unions, various Progressive radical groups, and the Communist Party of the USA, which endorsed Obama in 2008 and is callinfg for his re-election. The protestors are calling for, among other things, an end to capitalism, the use of force, if necessary, against “the rich” to compel them to give up their wealth, and the re-election of President Obama.

Unions have long criticized China’s trade policies, blaming “shipping jobs overseas” for much of the nation’s woes.

It is not uncommon for unpopular governments to gin up tensions overseas and blame foreign powers for the present domestic situation, however Schumer’s possible motivations are not known.

China’s trade policies have long been considered to be unfair and both Tea Party activists and leftists have tended to agree, in principle, that the Chinese are generally bad for business. Among the complaints are dumping of Chinese goods to decimate domestic producers, artificially suppressing the value of the Chinese currency, stealing copyrighted content and patented technologies, and “massive industrial espionage.”

Free traders will doubtless balk at such a bill if its is brought to the floor, but the protectionist/isolationist sentiment is rather popular and, some guess, whether or not Schumer gets a bill passed, merely trying to pass such a bill could put a new shine the Democrat’s tarnished image.

It is also possible, according to our sources, that another Senator might propose the bill or jointly add their name to it with Schumer. Asked if Schumer could delay or cancel his plan, especially if it is exposed in advance and the sources agreed that Schumer could be forced to back down, at least temporarily, but that “he definitely WANTS to push this.”

A HINT of what is to come was referred to just today in THIS piece about Schumer where he is talking about New York losing 160,000 jobs to China.

Social Security Ponzi Scheme- Senior Citizens On The Progressive Plantation

W R Collier Jr October 1, 2011

obamacare1 — AARP Supported Obamacare and senior citizens made it possible- all in the name of "benefits"

Will today’s senior citizens put their benefits ahead of their children’s future? William R. Collier Jr.

The Progressive slave machine is in high gear defending the social security Ponzi scheme at a time when it is becoming obvious that giving people MORE than they actually put in to the system ensures bankruptcy for today’s youngest workers.

The system is one big lie and, until this nation started killing off its own future through abortion, there was enough coming in to pay the obligations even while the political elites skimmed off the top, middle, and bottom of the fund to finance their vote-buying programs. The fact that millions of people were paid doesn’t prove that the system was efficient or even just- it is neither.

We know there are better alternatives, but to even talk about them gets the “seniors”, led by the AARP, angry and frightened into believing that THEY will not get as much as they get now (regardless of what they actually paid into the system).

So far the response amongst reformists is to try to assure the seniors that their benefits won’t change. It is an argument that can’t seem to get past AARP’s filter. Seniors don’t seem to realize that the AARP is nothing more than a progressive plantation for senior citizens who depend on government for income and benefits- they don’t even get it that their benefits are costing them their freedom and empowering freedom takers in general.

Senior citizens have become takers, all they seem to worry about is how much they are going to get, even if getting it will ensure that future generations never have an equal chance to the same quality of life they enjoyed. For the first time in our history, it appears that future generations will lose ground and have less economic opportunity than those who came before them.

The current generation of senior citizens, especially the baby boomers, has enjoyed a way of life that will be unobtainable for their children and grandchildren.

Let’s assume, therefore, that social security has over-promised and, under the current economic circumstances (partly created by abortion and other socialist policies seniors allowed to occur by voting for their own benefit instead of the nation’s) cannot possibly met its obligations without literally bankrupting the country.

Would today’s seniors demand these benefits even though future generations will be left paying a bill that will cripple them? I fear that, come what may, today’s seniors don’t care about their children or grandchildren, they just want their benefits.

They might rationalize this selfishness by saying that getting all they “deserve” won’t bankrupt America or by the myth that they put in AS MUCH as they are getting back, but, in the end, debt is strangling America and all these benefits we give out, regardless of what has been paid in, are more than we can bear.

The writing is on the wall- the Federal Government is bankrupting America. Our present economic woes are almost totally a result of government programs, policies, and regulations that take resources away, put a lid on the creation of new wealth, and pour out public money at a higher rate than it can be replenished.

What is the response from the senior citizen lobby? “We don’t care, just make sure that we don’t have to suffer at all, even though we elected these officials who made these policies that will bankrupt America AFTER we are gone.”

The Bible says that parents should lay up treasure for their children and not vice-versa. Today’s senior citizen lobby, led by the socialist AARP, seems to believe otherwise.

Of course, reforming social security to a model that is more just to ALL, more efficient, and more in keeping with economic reality doesn’t HAVE TO cause any real pain or loss to today’s beneficiaries. That’s not the point. The point is that many of today’s senior citizens, the ones who vote for Democrats to preserve their benefits at all cost, wouldn’t even consider giving up ANY of their benefits for the good of future generations- and therein lies the real reason why this nation could be headed for collapse.

Herman Cain And The Progressive Plantation- Herman Cain

W R Collier Jr October 1, 2011

How Long Before The Black Community Gets Off The Progressive Plantation?- By William R. Collier Jr.

Herman Cain’s comments about the Black community being brainwashed by the liberal elite has sparked “outrage” by leftist black commentators who have even gone so far as to call him “racist.”

The plain truth is that Black unemployment is over 18 percent and most of the socio-economic indicators for the Black community are extremely negative. While it can, and must, be said that racism continues to hinder individuals for the Black community, it is also true that the Black community itself is large enough and has enough inherent human potential to become self-sustaining.

As to the racism issue, things are not as bad as they once were, but there truly is a lot of racism in people’s hearts, and increasingly we are seeing three kinds of racism emerge.

First, there is the typical racial superiority where primarily white people think they are superior to others.

Second, there is racial separatism where people from all of the racial groups think they should not “mix” with other groups.

Finally, there is racialism where people, primarily from the Black community, think that people of another race (mostly white) are inherently evil and racist and incapable of change.

These forms of racism are self-perpetuating. Every time a Black person experiences a white racist, for instance, their own racialism is reinforced against ALL white people. Every time a white person confronts racialism against them by a Black person, they are tempted to embrace racism, at least as a self-defense measure.

There is no legitimate excuse for racial supremacy, racial separatism, or racialism at all: we should deal with people solely on the basis of the content of their character. In God’s eyes there is NO such thing as “race.” People can have diverse cultures and ethnic identities, but these differences cannot be the basis of division against other people.

That all being said, however, the Black community has been sold the liberal lie that its economic and cultural existence depends on eliminating racism, while, of course, denying the negative impact of racialism. While it may indeed be more difficult for a lone individual to overcome racism in all of its forms, it is much easier for groups of individuals, linking arms, to overcome racism together by, first, mutually supporting one another.

When I lived in a virtually all-Black community I dealt with racialism that was directed at me. I was told “your ancestors owned my ancestors” as if I had to pay for their sins. The irony is that my father’s family on his father’s side were German immigrants in the 18th century who were likely “indentured servants”, white slaves!

My reaction to this was to gather a group of people from all the “races” who were determined to reject all forms of racism. Because the group was centered on a Tae Kwon Do class we called ourselves the Tae Kwon Do Elite.

I paid a price for my rejection of racism: I was jumped by three white guys because I had a black girlfriend and to this day have pain where an accidental womb to my right index finger was re-injured.

Eventually, because I was part of a group that was willing and able to defend its members, I was not impacted directly by any racism. Racism did not go away, it just didn’t control my life and I refused to define myself on the basis of race one way or another.

The Black community is being asked by liberals to be defined by white racism, to embrace racialism, and to wait around for the government to “fix” the problem through political correctness, wealth redistribution schemes, and entitlement programs. This is, plain and simple, brain-washing, and it is reinforced by constant peer pressure, which starts with the so-called “leaders” of the Black community (whom some have likened to privileged house slaves on the liberal plantation), and which attacks anyone in that community who denies the liberal orthodoxy.

The shrill attacks by the liberal elites against Herman Cain for daring, as a Black man, to carry the banner of conservatism are absolute proof that what he is saying is true. Calling him a racist is racialism, the assumption that anyone who does not believe in the liberal orthodoxy is therefore racist. While Cain is himself a Black man, the fact that he is not a liberal causes the liberal elites who rule the Black community absolutely to question his very identity as a Black man!

The Black community has two choices- stay on the path of liberalism and victimhood to get off of the progressive plantation or embrace and agenda of self-sustainability internally that rejects all forms of racism, either against itself or against others.
