"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Against Ukraine War? Obama May Seize Your Assets
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Sun, 2014-03-16 01:00
"Do you, like 56 percent of the US population, believe that the US should "not get too involved" in the Ukraine situation? Do you think that the US administration putting us on a war footing with Russia is a bad idea? Are you concerned that the new, US-backed leaders of Ukraine -- not being elected -- might lack democratic legitimacy? Are you tempted to speak out against US policy in Ukraine; are you tempted to criticize the new Ukrainian regime? Be careful what you say. Be careful what you write. President Obama has just given himself the authority to seize your assets."

Well, if we've ever paid a federal income tax, he's already seized some assets. Anyway he's already given himself permission to kill anybody he pleases. I guess I am not going to worry too much about this. I won't keep my trap shut about any damn war either.
