THE WHITE HOUSE

Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release September 10, 2009

NOTICE
- – – – – – -
CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT

TO CERTAIN TERRORIST ATTACKS

Consistent with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act, 50 U.S.C. 1622(d), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.

Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2009. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency the former President declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

BARACK OBAMA

THE WHITE HOUSE,
September 10, 2009.

Because, through the National Emergencies act, The executive can claim extraordinary powers and get away with crap like threatening Congress with Martial Law if they don't pass banker bailouts.

Also because it shows he's really no different than Bush, other than smarts and charisma.

Both the democrats and the Republicans do NOT represent the real America .

The solution is to A: Continue to expose the lies, the tyranny, the corruption carried out in collusion by both sides of the left wing and right wing of the predatory bird we call a government.

B: To open the eyes up of the american people to the fact that there are other candidates, to have them pull their collective heads out of the quagmire created by the MSM, that presents this idea that only certain people are electable and start voting for the best person for the job, not the lesser of 2 evils.

C: Expose the fact that the socalled "Mainstream" Dems and Reps are owned, part and parcel, by the very bankers, the very Federal Reserve cartel, that they protect and bailout with our money.

D: Convince those coming in behind the scumbags that we will eventually wise up to and throw out of office, that the policies of empire (Intervention around the world, occupation, nation building, military bases everywhere we go) only leads to resentment and hatred for our Country and it makes us far less safe, due to the possibility of blowback.

There are many more things that can be done as well, but the key is to remove the power from the bankers that own this country, the Federal Reserve Board, then and only then, will we have a chance at fair elections, Constitutional rule of Law and a opportunity to live our lives the way we seem fit, as long as we aren't harming anyone else.
