Although it could all be a matter of semantics.


I agree, Baldimo.



Okay let's take it a step further, corporations don't pledge allegiance to ANYTHING except their own greed... Is that better?

Oath of office
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oath_of_office#Federal_Executive_and_Legislative_Branch_Oaths

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

I don't seen anything specifically about the flag or the republic in that oath... And we all know how the Republicans hate the U.S. flag anyway. (not cynical)

And what oath do corporations swear to? (please answer this question)

Who do you trust?

The government or corporations?

Federal Judiciary Oaths
I, (name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as (office) under the Constitution and laws of the United States. [So help me God.]

Comment:
I wonder how many Republican judges have sold out to corporation "persons" and broken this oath? (many)

State and local
I solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of the State of New York, (and the Charter of the City of New York, e.g.), and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of the office of (mayor of the City of New York, e.g.) to the best of my ability.

Nowhere in this oath does it say I will accept bribes from corporations and look the other way...

Once again I don't see any mention of the flag or the republic.

It is the U.S. Constitution that rests the rule of this country squarely in the hands of WE THE PEOPLE... Through our oath sworn elected public servants.

How to create a social state – The Cloward-Piven Strategy:

There are eight levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a social state.

The first is the most important.



Healthcare- Control healthcare and you control the people.
Poverty – Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
Debt – Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.
Gun Control – Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state
Welfare – Take control of every aspect of their lives. (Food, Housing, and Income)
Education – Take control of what people read and listen to us“ take control of what children learn in school.
Religion – Remove the belief in the God from the Government and schools.
Class Warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.


What do you see? Or all you all Socialists?

Exactly what Obama is not doing. He has broken that oath. He is not my president anymore. He is just a lying asshole that needs to be impeached, arrested and prosecuted.

@RexRed,
Rex it has been mentioned on here more than once, that is, you make a claim you have to back it up. You don't get to make a claim and then have others look it up for you, that pure laziness and dishonesty.

@RexRed,
Your links on the oath of office by our government officials is a farce. They swear to uphold the Constitution, then don't follow through, but any citizen who lies to law enforcement or any government department can be charged with a felony.

Our country has stupid embargos against Cuba that only harms the people of Cuba, but our government is hell bent to make it a crime to visit Cuba without 'government authorization.'

They don't want Americans spending US dollars, but now allow US travel companies to visit Cuba on a "people to people" VISA.

Of coarse, none of those Americans are spending US dollars to travel to Cuba; that would be a crime.

Obama: treacherous or incompetent?

Quote:
The damage wrought through the implementation of his absurd and impractical liberal “solutions” to national problems is readily evident.

When Barack Obama was inaugurated on January 20, 2009 the national debt of the United States was $10,626,877,048,913. As of Jun 26, 2014, the debt was $17,512,592,730,102.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), in 2007 on the eve of the recession, there were 146.6 million Americans working. Today, after six years of the Obama Administration, there are 145.8 million Americans in jobs, 800,000 below the previous peak. Since Obama came into office in 2009, 7.2 million people have left the workforce, making the true unemployment rate 8.3 percent, not 6.1 percent. Median household income is down almost $2,300 from what it was when Obama took office. Real wages are lower than they were in 1999. Growth in the first quarter of this year was a negative 2.9%, the biggest downward revision from the agency’s second GDP estimate since records began in 1976.


Quote:
A Benghazi cover-up may have also prevented a thorough examination of the possible passivity or complicity of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood government in the attacks in Cairo and Benghazi and the potentially dangerous consequences of arming Islamic factions in Syria over which the US has little control, where the weapons we supplied may someday be used against us.

It should be obvious that Obama lied about Benghazi, he lied about Obamacare, the IRS, the VA scandal and in countless other instances.

@coldjoint,
Hey, ice brain. The deficit was increased by congress, not the president. That's only part of it. The biggest portion of the increased deficit came from GW Bush's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that he never paid for, and his tax cuts for the wealthy. Another small portion of the current deficit was to save our country's economy from GW Bush's Great Recession that impacted the whole world's economies.

Finally, the current deficit is 'smaller' as a percentage of our GNP compared to 2007. I'm sure that goes way over your tiny brain.

America to Sarah Palin: Enough!
politicalmugshot
Posted by
CNN Political Unit

(CNN) - A majority of voters say they've heard enough from Sarah Palin, according to a new national poll.

http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/140308203004-17-cpac-0308-story-top.jpg

The NBC/Wall Street Journal/Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania survey indicates that 54% of voters say they've heard enough from Palin and would prefer that the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate be less outspoken in political discourse. That includes nearly two-thirds of Democrats, a majority of independents, and nearly four in 10 Republicans.

Follow @politicaltickerFollow @psteinhausercnn

The poll's release came just a couple of days after Palin made national headlines by calling for the impeachment of President Barack Obama.

Palin, a Fox News Channel contributor, remains popular and influential with tea party activists and other grassroots conservatives.

Palin applauds Hillary Clinton's 'boldness' in memoir

Sen. John McCain, who tapped Palin as his running mate in the 2008 presidential election, said while he "respect(s) always Sarah Palin's views," her comments might hurt Republican chances of taking control of the Senate in 2014.

Asked by reporters on Thursday if its a mistake for the GOP to pursue impeachment, McCain said "yes."

"Because the real answer is to get control of the United States Senate. Then we can enact legislation which will curb exactly what Sarah Palin and others are saying they want to impeach him for. And you are never going to get 67 votes in the United States Senate either," he said.

McCain isn't the only high profile Republican dismissing Palin's call for Obama's impeachment. On Wednesday, House Speaker John Boehner also split with the former Alaska governor on the issue.

What other former politicians would voters like to keep quiet?

Fifty-one percent of those questioned said they've heard enough from former Democratic presidential candidate and civil rights leader Jesse Jackson. Forty-five percent said the same thing about former Vice President Dick Cheney, who's been a vocal critic of President Barack Obama.

The poll indicates that 43% said they've heard enough from former House speaker and 2012 GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich, a co-host of CNN's "Crossfire," with four in 10 saying the same thing about former Vice President Al Gore, and 32% saying they've heard enough from Gore's old boss Bill Clinton.

The NBC News/Annenberg poll was conducted June 30-July 3 and July 5-7, with 1,137 registered voters nationwide questioned by telephone. The survey's overall sampling error is plus or minus 3.4 percentage points.

Who's missing from the list? Make your nominations in the comments below.
