The dictator's Executive Orders; Occupying Tampa; Blood on Obama's hands; Overthrowing capitalism is Occupy's goal; Unelected bureaucrats will make health care decisions; Russia warns the West; Romney outraising Obama; Rhode Island to register voters at a ballpark; Muslims crucifying opponents in Egypt; Ancient Chinese proverb; America to "closely monitor" birth statistics in Israel; Coal miners for Romney; Striking scandalous details from Big Sis's lawsuit; Sure, Obamacare won't raise your taxes; The aim all along was to unionize 21 million health care workers

*The great Thomas Sowell writes about Executive Orders: For example, the merits or demerits of President Obama's recent executive order, suspending legal liability for young people who are here illegally, presumably as a result of being brought here as children by their parents, can be debated pro and con. But such a debate overlooks the much more fundamental undermining of the whole American system of constitutional government.
The separation of powers into legislative, executive and judicial branches of government is at the heart of the Constitution of the United States — and the Constitution is at the heart of freedom for Americans.
No president of the United States is authorized to repeal parts of legislation passed by Congress. He may veto the whole legislation, but then Congress can override his veto if they have enough votes. Nevertheless, every president takes an oath to faithfully execute the laws that have been passed and sustained — not just the ones he happens to agree with.
If laws passed by the elected representatives of the people can be simply over-ruled unilaterally by whoever is in the White House, then we are no longer a free people, choosing what laws we want to live under. http://news.investors.com/article/622823/201208201809/president-obama-ignores-constitution-rules-executive-order.htm

Soros-funded marxists to occupy the RNC: Republican delegates arriving in Tampa for the convention this week will likely find one thing more oppressive than the humidity: hordes of motley Occupiers, political puppeteers, Teamsters, Code Pink activists dressed as giant female body parts, open-borders extremists, vegan Marxists, and tattooed anarchists, all assembling for their quadrennial temper tantrum.
One major target is the Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, and anything ever associated with him. Plans include a tent city called “Romneyville” and protests against any companies assisted by Romney’s old firm, Bain Capital.

[protesters] and their ACLU lawyers have been “in negotiation” with Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn and the city council for several months, demanding permits, demanding special restraints on the police, and threatening lawsuits if they don’t get their way. http://www.aim.org/special-report/soros-funded-marxists-to-occupy-the-rnc/

Blood Of Afghan Betrayal On Obama's Hands It's now clear why so many U.S. troops have fallen prey to Afghan insider attacks: The administration disarmed them while arming their Afghan trainees, making them sitting ducks.

With U.S. and NATO troop deaths from so-called green-on-blue attacks climbing past 100, military brass last week reversed a standing order requiring troops to remove their magazines from their weapons while quartered inside bases with their "trusted Afghan partners."
Rogue Afghan soldiers or police have easily gotten the jump on their trainers, shooting them in cold blood with the rifles and ammunition issued by the U.S. Ten of our troops have died this way in just the past two weeks. http://news.investors.com/article/622865/201208201902/obama-exposed-troops-to-afghan-insider-attacks.htm

Former Amalgamated Transit Union local 689 president Mike Golash, now an “Occupy” movement organizer, was caught on tape Sunday revealing his political goals: overthrowing capitalism in the United States and instituting a communist government.
“Progressive labor is a revolutionary communist organization,” Golash said during an Occupy DC “People’s Assembly” on August 19.
“Its objective,” he added, “is to make revolution in the United States, overthrow the capitalist system and build communism.”
Golash said he and his comrades are “trying to learn something from the historical revolutions of the past: the Russian revolution, the Chinese revolution, the revolutions in Cuba and Eastern Europe.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Does President Obama’s health care law empower an “unelected, unaccountable” panel of bureaucrats to make decisions that will cause people to lose access to health care? “Yes,” according to the man who spoke for the president when Democrats passed the law.
Fox News Sunday’s Chris Wallace asked former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs about the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB), a 15-person panel designed to control health care costs by cutting payments to doctors.
“Medicare patients, millions of them, will lose access to Medicare benefits,” Wallace said to Gibbs, citing a Medicare actuary report. Gibbs tried to argue that Obamacare will lower costs by encouraging health care providers to prevent illnesses rather than simply treat them, but Wallace countered that “if the providers don’t do it, then what happens is, under your plan, this unelected board, 15 bureaucrats, come in and they decide, what — you are laughing at it, but that is it.”
Gibbs accepted Wallace’s observation that IPAB will cause people to lose access to health care.  “I guess I’m laughing at your characterization of [IPAB],” he said. “They are medical professionals. They are people that we trust to make medical decisions.” http://washingtonexaminer.com/gibbs-confirms-central-part-of-romney-ryan-attack-on-obamacares-ipab/article/2505316#.UDJ67KPcDpI

 Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warned the West on Tuesday against any unilateral action on Syria after President Barack Obama said U.S. forces could act if the Syrian leader deployed chemical weapons against rebels trying to topple him. Russia and China have opposed military intervention in Syria throughout 17 months of bloodshed and have vetoed three U.N. Security Council resolutions backed by Western and Arab states that would have raised pressure on Damascus to end violence. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/russia-china-warn-west-syria-064452353.html

Mr. Obama and the Democrats raised a combined $75 million during July, according to Federal Election Commission reports filed Monday, compared with $101 million for Mr. Romney and the Republicans. The Democrats had about $124 million in cash on hand, most of it in Mr. Obama’s campaign account, while the Republicans had $186 million. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/21/us/politics/romney-racks-up-huge-cash-advantage-over-obama.html?_r=2&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1345514420-L2q8L3B8JQV4zqe47DcZ6A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rhode Island election officials will be registering voters and handing out free voter IDs at Pawtucket’s minor league ballpark.
Secretary of State Ralph Mollis’ office says a registration center will open about an hour before the Pawtucket Red Sox [team stats] take on the Red Wings of Rochester, Minn. Tuesday night at McCoy Stadium.
A new state law asks voters to show government-issued identification at the polls.
The state is providing free IDs to voters who lack a driver’s license, U.S. passport, military ID, bus pass or other government-issued identification. http://www.bostonherald.com/news/national/northeast/view/20120821rhode_island_to_hand_out_voter_ids_at_ballgame/srvc=home&position=recent

The Arab Spring takeover of Egypt by the Muslim Brotherhood has run amok, with reports from several different media agencies that the radical Muslims have begun crucifying opponents of newly installed President Mohammed Morsi.
Middle East media confirm that during a recent rampage, Muslim Brotherhood operatives “crucified those opposing Egyptian President Muhammad Morsi naked on trees in front of the presidential palace while abusing others.”  [Islam - the religion of peace.]  http://www.wnd.com/2012/08/arab-spring-run-amok-brotherhood-starts-crucifixions/

Proverb

Original Chinese Proverb:
“Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish… and you feed him for a lifetime.”

Latest Chinese Proverb Import:
“Give a man a welfare check, a cell phone, cash for his clunker, food stamps, section 8 housing, Medicaid, 100 weeks of unemployment checks, a 40-ounce malt liquor, needles, drugs, contraceptives, and designer Air Jordan shoes… and he will vote Democrat for a lifetime.”

-So now we’re told by George Mitchell, Middle East envoy to Obama, that America will be ‘closely monitoring’ Israeli birth statistics…  So much for Obama ‘not meddling’ in what other nations do.Mitchell has apparently suggested that Jewish births in Judea and Samaria would be violations of Obama’s prohibition on ‘natural growth’. Let’s translate, shall we? If any Jewish parents dare to have more Jewish children in Judea and Samaria, Obama will be angry.
Since when is it acceptable for America to mandate how many children parents living in a sovereign nation can have…?
And why isn’t Obama cracking down on the truly illegal Palestinian Arab settlements in east Jerusalem…? You know – the ones built on land purchased fairly and owned legally by Israelis…? http://ajewwithaview.wordpress.com/2009/07/01/obama-administration-no-more-jews-allowed-to-be-born-in-judea-and-samaria/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Bealesville, OHIO, coal miners line up to shake hands with Mitt Romney. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The feds have asked a judge to strike from the public record the most “scandalous” details of a bombshell sexual-discrimination lawsuit against Janet Napolitano and the Department of Homeland Security that refer to oral sex and an odd bathroom prank.
The lewd details are included in senior law-enforcement official James Hayes’ suit claiming retaliation anti-guy bias.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A provision of President Obama’s health care law imposes a second Medicare tax on investment income for Americans classified as wealthy, effectively raising taxes on investment income and taxing investors twice. The provision, a little-known part of ObamaCare, levies a 3.8 percent Medicare tax on investment income for couples making more than $250,000 or individuals making more than $200,000 a year. The tax is scheduled to go into effect on January 1, 2013.
Currently, the government levies a 2.9 percent Medicare payroll tax on all wages, with half (1.45%) paid by the individual and half by the employer.
Beginning in 2013, couples making more than $250,000 (or individuals making $200,000) will have to pay an additional 3.8 percent Medicare tax on any investment income (unearned income) they might have. http://cnsnews.com/news/article/under-obamacare-medicare-double-taxation-begins-2013

In a book set for publication Tuesday, a politics and government professor at The Citadel claims President Obama’s 2009 health care reform law was, in part, a union-driven effort to organize 21 million health care workers.
In ”Shadowbosses: Government Unions Control America and Rob Taxpayers Blind,” Mallory Factor describes a December 9, 2008 memo from Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Healthcare president Dennis Rivera to the Obama-Biden transition team.
That memo outlined a legislative proposal calling for “increasing the capacity of the health care workforce” as part of a larger health care reform initiative.
