Obama is Now Closing Private Businesses

Park Rangers blocked the entrance to the Pigsah Inn off the Blue Ridge Parkway, telling prospective customers that it was closed.  The Pigsah Inn is a privately owned establishment.  The Blue Ridge Parkway is a road maintained by the NPS that couldn’t be closed because it is the main artery between cities and is considered a main thoroughfare.
Bruce O’Connell, owner of the inn, received a letter from the National Park Service, telling him to close down until the government shutdown was over.  The idea of closing parks and other government establishments is ostensibly to save money.  Thr Pigsah Inn, which is a private concern and has no NPS personnel working on site, is actually costing the NPA more, since they have assigned two officers to block the entrance and force it’s closure.
After a few days of being closed, O’Connell decided enough was enough and reopened his business on Friday, defying the NPS.  Is an IRS audit far behind?  His in is on private property along a highway which is open.  He is defying the NPS to close the inn, because he simply believes the NPS does not have the authority to close a private business that pays all of it’s own bills.
The Pigsah Inn is not a unique situation as the NPS has also closed City Tavern in Philadelphia, and Nauset Knoll Motor Lodge on Cape Cod.  They have also closed down the Atlantic Ocean, believe it or not.  There is talk in Washington of a major investigation into the actions of the NPS and questions as to is ordering these closures, although it’s unlikely the head of the NPS would do these things without the explicit order or blessing of the oval office.
Michael Litterst, the Park Service’s chief spokesman said:
However, that statement is less than truthful, since the Blue Ridge Parkway is part of the national park system.  However, it’s the main roadway from the tourist areas of the North Carolina Smokey Mountains and the popular Tennessee destinations of Pigeon Forge, Sieverville, and Gatlinburg.  Closing that would bring the ire out from tourists from all over the country.
O’Connell explained his reasoning for reversing his decision and reopening the inn, “The level of intimidation and coercion became such that we backed down. Then after sleeping on it, our own convictions took front and center and we decided to reopen,”
The park ranger’s superintendant did not return calls from the Washington Times for comment.

Putin Recommends Alliance Between Western Nations and East Asia to “Crush the Muslims”

Never before in American history has a Russian President’s stock been as high as current Soviet Premiere Vladimir Putin’s. America, currently in the middle of the first government shut down since the Clinton administration of 1995, is looking for leadership, finding very little to almost non in current U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama.

How do I put this politely? You Americans are dumb. Today, Russia and America are fighting each other over fighting the Muslim radicals. Instead, we should be uniting to crush these violent Islamists, once and for all.

While Obama caters to Muslim radicals, particularly Al Qaeda terrorists in Syria, who were run out of norther Iraq by U.S. forces in the most recent Iraq war, by labeling them “rebels” and arming them and providing them with machinery and money, Russian President Vladimir Putin has taken a more realistic stance toward the modern threat toward the West and all free nations, radical Islam, and recommended in a recent letter to the American people (see more here:http://freepatriot.org/2013/09/08/russia-love-letter-putin-americans/ ) that “Moscow, Washington, London, Paris, Brussels, Jerusalem, Lagos, Addis Ababa, Beijing, New Delhi–come together in a new Holy Alliance, similar to that which kept Europe safe from radicalism in the early 19th century. Let’s join one another to crush the unholy, unruly, jihadi Muslims. The good Muslims will thank us for it. And if they don’t–too bad.”
Meanwhile, while soldiers on American military bases cannot shop for groceries in the PX’s, because they've been closed, Obama continues to play golf at Andrew’s Air Base.

POLL: CRUZ 2016 FRONTRUNNER, NEW GOP LEADER

POLL: CRUZ 2016 FRONTRUNNER, NEW GOP LEADER

cruz reuters 2016
Breitbart is reporting that a new national poll has found that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is not only the 2016 frontrunner but also the politician Republicans view as their new leader in Washington, D.C.
A Public Policy Polling poll of GOP primary voters conducted September 25-26, while Cruz was speaking on the Senate floor for 21 hours in support of defunding Obamacare, found Cruz is the top choice “among Republican primary voters to be their candidate for President in 2016″:
He leads the way with 20% to 17% for Rand Paul, 14% for Chris Christie, 11% for Jeb Bush, 10% each for Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan, 4% for Bobby Jindal, and 3% each for Rick Santorum and Scott Walker.
Cruz received the support of 34% of “very conservative” voters while Paul received 17% and Ryan 12%. Those “very conservative” voters make up the greatest share of the GOP primary electorate at 39%.
The poll also found that “Cruz is now viewed more broadly as the leader of the Republican Party” over Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH):
When asked whether they trust Cruz or GOP leader Mitch McConnell more, Cruz wins out 49/13. When it comes to who’s more trusted between Cruz and Speaker John Boehner, Cruz has a 51/20 advantage. And when it comes to Cruz and 2008 GOP nominee and Senate colleague John McCain, Cruz wins out 52/31. He now has more credibility with the GOP base than the folks who have been leading the party for years.
“Ted Cruz this week established himself as the grassroots hero of the Republican Party,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling, which is left-leaning. “The party base has a lot more faith in him than their more official leaders like Mitch McConnell and John Boehner.”
Cruz has said this week that he is accountable to the grassroots and has blistered Washington’s permanent political class for not listening to Americans outside of the beltway. He hammered that point time and time again while he was on the Senate floor for his quasi-filibuster.
The poll, which surveyed 743 GOP primary voters, has a margin of error is +/- 3.6%.

Is Gun Confiscation Just the Beginning?

ca gun control flag
The gun-grabbing Sacramento politicians aren’t content with the number of guns they’re confiscating.
Earlier this week, the California State Assembly voted for a draconian new expansion to the so-called “assault weapons” ban that outlaws any semi-automatic rifle that can accept a magazine with a capacity of more than 10 rounds!
You and I know that means they’re coming after virtually every semi-automatic rifle.
Worse, chances to stop this terrible bill are running out.
Now, the Senate does have to pass the bill one last time so that the Senate version matches the Assembly version.
That means there is no time left for delay.
Please, call your State Senator and insist they kill SB-374 right now.
Click here to find your Senator.
Time is running out. Please act today.

Subject: Is gun confiscation just the beginning?
NAGR Banner
Fellow Patriot,
It’s started in California.
19 years ago Senator Dianne Feinstein told us that she wanted to take every gun from every citizen in the country.
Mr. and Mrs. America, turn ‘em all in,” she exclaimed.
Now, armed with $24 million in newly allocated taxpayer funds, the California Department of Justice is expanding it’s gun confiscation task force.

They’re literally going door-to-door to confiscate legally purchased guns. 


Reports indicate they’re seizing up to 40 guns each night, many from law-abiding gun owners without probable cause or without due process
.
All because your State Legislature gave them the money to do it earlier this year.
Now, you might be thinking, “This doesn’t affect me. I’m not a felon. I’m not crazy. My gun’s legal.”
%First%, I hope you don’t make that mistake.
If the gun grabbers have it their way, EVERY gun in California would be labeled an “illegal gun.”
And just because they are seizing other people’s firearms now, doesn’t mean they won’t come after yours next.
In fact, lawmakers are coming back to Sacramento next week and more gun control is on the top of their list of things to do.
If they move forward with the dozen or so anti-gun bills they have in store, it will result in:
*** MORE legal guns being outlawed in the Golden State;
*** MORE otherwise law-abiding citizens being labeled “prohibited persons;” and ultimately,
*** MORE gun confiscation.
If California’s war on the Second Amendment hasn’t impacted you yet, it’s only a matter of time.
On Monday, August 12, the Senate Appropriations Committee will be addressing several anti-gun bills.
Then on Tuesday, August 13 Assembly Public Safety Committee will be taking up even more.
Here’s just a few of their new ideas to strip you of your constitutional rights: 
*** AB-48, Magazine Ban Expansion and Ammo Snitch Act:
This bill would require the California DOJ to report you to local police if you buy too much ammunition. It also would put you in jail for up to a year for possessing a so-called “high-capacity” magazine.
*** AB-1131, The Therapy Criminalization Act:
This bill increases the amount of time you could be barred from owning a gun because of something you tell a therapist in confidence. The time period would be increased from six months to FIVE YEARS!
*** SB-396, The Michael Bloomberg SAFE Act:
This bill would limit your magazine to 10 rounds. There is no grandfather clause in this bill, so if you already have one that holds more, you’d be a criminal.
Also on the agenda are:
*** Increased gun storage requirements (AB-231);
*** A waiting period increase for private sales that would force an FFL to cease your gun while you’re waiting to sell it (AB-500); and,
*** Banning firearms that use a release mechanism specially designed to make semi-automatic firearms compliant with current California law (SB-47).
And, if Sen. Mark DeSaulnier (D-Concord) has his way, no firearm model would ever be allowed in California ever again without James Bond-style biometric scanners or palm print readers.
And this is only the tip of the iceberg.
Steve, your lawmakers need to hear from you today.
Without your activism, they’re almost certain to move full speed ahead.
Will you help me stop the gun-grabbers in Sacramento?

THE LAP DOG BITES IT'S MASTER

Obama is completely out of line and out of control.He’s losing his liberal base. His popularity is plummeting. Even Democrats are turning on him.
Even the usually corrupt and establishment-oriented media complex is starting to have enough, with media members from every major news organization openly questioning what on earth Obama is thinking about Syria. For example, ABC’s John Carl point-blank asked, “Why should members of Congress go against the will of their constituents and support your decision on this? And I still haven’t heard a direct response to Brianna’s question.”
Obama tried to laugh it off by saying “you won’t get a direct answer”, but the response was only a few awkward chuckles. Watch the exchange above.
We need the media to wake up and start challenging politicians like this — every time. That’s what the media is for. Please help encourage good journalism by spreading this story on Facebook and Twitter.

THE SIMPLE TRUTH

More and more proof is coming out it was NOT Syria but the terrorist who did the gas attacks. Don't rush to aid those seeking to cut off your head in the name of their god. Use your head for more than a door stop and think for a moment. Are you being played for a fool by Obama, his lapdog media, and those eager for another war to enrich themselves? Seems the answer is clearly YES.
