Clinton: "Never Waste a Good Crisis"

Today, Hillary Clinton further revealed the Obama Regime's adherence to radical Saul Alinsky's principles by informing "young Europeans" at the European Parliament to "never waste a good crisis". Exposing to the world the Obama Regime's sadistic willingness to grab power on the backs of the miserable and further shedding light on the cultivation of fear being seeded by Obama and his henchman. From Reuters:

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told an audience Friday "never waste a good crisis," and highlighted the opportunity of rebuilding economies in a greener, less energy-intensive way.

Highlighting Europe's unease the day after Russia warned that gas flows via Ukraine might be halted, she also condemned the use of energy as a political lever.

Clinton told young Europeans at the European Parliament that global economic turmoil provided a fresh opening. "Never waste a good crisis ... Don't waste it when it can have a very positive impact on climate change and energy security," she said.

This is the second time a high level Obama regime member has said that a good crisis should not go to waste. Last November, Rahm Emanuel, Obama's Chief of Staff revealed the same diabolical power usurping strategy:

The idea of turning the auto industry’s crisis into a chance to enact changes with energy and environmental benefits is one that Mr. Emanuel has promoted in Congress. But he said that Mr. Obama had yet to settle on his proposals or whether he would announce them before he was sworn in.

“Rule one: Never allow a crisis to go to waste,” Mr. Emanuel said in an interview on Sunday. “They are opportunities to do big things.”

The theory of seizing power during a manufactured crisis comes from Saul Alinsky and his "Rules for Radicals" and the Cloward-Piven strategy. And if you think it's a coincidence that Clinton would utter such words, consider that she wrote her senior thesis about Saul Alinsky. Scary stuff huh?

Emanuel Passed on Names for Senate Consideration to Blago

I told you this is how this would all play out. Obama to release the Emanuel and Blagojevich ties on Christmas Eve. In the hopes that few will notice.

Federal prosecutors investigating alleged corruption by Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich interviewed President-elect Barack Obama and two of his top advisers last week in connection with the case, according to a memo released Tuesday by the Obama transition team.

The five-page memo denies any wrongdoing or improper communication between the transition team and Mr. Blagojevich, who prosecutors allege sought to fill Mr. Obama's vacant Senate seat in exchange for money or a better job. Prosecutors have said no one on the Obama transition team is a suspect.

Mr. Obama had promised shortly after Mr. Blagojevich's Dec. 9 arrest to release an accounting of contacts between his staff and the governor's office. Federal agents had been wiretapping conversations by Mr. Blagojevich in October and November as part of their criminal investigation.

The memo released Tuesday said Mr. Obama's incoming White House chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, contacted Mr. Blagojevich and his staff at least five times after Election Day, and produced a slate of suggested replacements for Mr. Obama's vacated Senate seat. Mr. Emanuel spoke about four times to Blagojevich chief of staff John Harris to discuss the Senate seat.

Obama Report Says Rahm Only Spoke with Blago Once

Of course that's what they say now. They've had weeks to wield their influence and tamper with the evidence. What happened to the "most transparent administration ever"?

Sources tell me that the Obama team's review of contacts with Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich will show that Rahm Emanuel had only one phone conversation with Blagojevich.

The contact, described as a "pro-forma" courtesy call, came as Emanuel was named Chief of Staff for Obama. Most of the discussion concerned Emanuel's Congressional seat (which had previously been held by Blagojevich), with only a "passing reference" to the Senate vacancy, according to these sources. No deal for the Senate vacancy was discussed.

Rahm Emanuel Had 21 Conversations About Obama's Vacant Senate Seat

That's a whole lot of talking. And those are just the one that were recorded.

From the Chicago Sun-Times:

Sneed hears rumbles President-elect Barack Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, is reportedly on 21 different taped conversations by the feds -- dealing with his boss' vacant Senate seat!

A lot of chit-chat?

Hot air?

Or trouble?

• • To date: Rahm's been mum. Stay tuned.

The Bus Driver Cometh: Rahm Emanuel Urged to Resign?

OK, so the Herald Sun issued a report stating that Rahm Emanuel was being urged to resign. Shortly after it's publication, however, the article was edited and re-published with no mention of any resignation by Emanuel. Is this the work of the Obama truth goons, or just a bit of over-zealous reporting from down under?

Here was the original text of the article:

BARACK Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, was under pressure to resign last night after it was revealed he had been captured on wire taps discussing candidates for the US president-elect's Illinios Senate seat.

And here's the article now:

BARACK Obama's chief of staff is under pressure over reported contacts with Illinois's corruption-tainted governor, who faces impeachment proceedings this week.

At least at one time the author thought Emanuel was being urged to resign. Now, the author makes no mention at all of any resignation. Just another example of bad Obama press disappearing from cyberspace.

Ever Wonder What Hope and Change Looks Like?

A very well done video that details the Obama's regime involvement in the Blagojevich scandal.

The best part is where Obama, speaking about his contact with Blago, says: "We were not..er uh...I was not aware of what was happening"...So unquestionably he knew at that time his people had been in contact with Blago. I contend that is a distinction without a difference.

Report: Rahm Emanuel Gave Blagojevich Names of Acceptable Senate Replacements

These are the ones we've been waiting for. This was Barack Obama yesterday:

"I have never spoken to the governor on this subject. I'm confident that no representatives of mine would have any part of any deals related to this seat,"

And this is a report from The Telegraph today:

Sources close to the investigation said Rahm Emanuel, the new chief of staff, had conversations about the issue with Rod Blagojevich and John Harris, the governor's chief aide who is also facing corruption charges.

It is claimed that at one point he even gave them a list of acceptable candidates to take over the vacant seat.

Suspicion has grown that Mr Emanuel is the unnamed "Washington based adviser" mentioned in the 76-page prosecutors' affidavit that Mr Blagojevich ordered his chief of staff to contact.

Mr Obama, who takes office on Jan 20, has vehemently denied any of his staff were involved in deal-making and has promised to reveal any contact between members of his team and the governor's office.

Rahm Dummies Up: Plays the "I'm a Father Card"

Rahm Emanuel is refusing to answer questions about his relationship with Blagojevich. Just like Obama's website. Most corrupt administration ever. And they're not even in office yet.

Can you appreciate the irony of Emanuel playing the father card after the left attacked Sarah Palin's ability to serve and care for her children? To her credit, Palin stood fast and admitted she was capable of pulling double duty. Emanuel, on the hand, folded like a Chinaman in a Shanghai laundromat, admitting he was incapable of fulfilling his duties and being a father.

President-elect Barack Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, refused to take questions from reporters this morning about whether he was the Obama “advisor” named in the criminal complaint against Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

The complaint states Blagojevich wanted a promise of a high-level appointment or some other reward for Blagojevich in exchange for Blagojevich naming Obama’s friend Valerie Jarrett to replace him in the U.S. Senate.

Emanuel was uncharacteristically absent from Obama’s news conference this morning. He was spotted two hours later in the lobby of Chicago’s City Hall. He was there to listen to his two children performing in a concert with their school, Anshe Emet.

A Sun-Times reporter pressed him to comment about whether he was the emissary named in the criminal complaint.

“You’re wasting your time,” Emanuel said. “I’m not going to say a word to you. I’m going to do this with my children. Dont do that. I’m a father. I have two kids. I’m not going to do it.”

Asked, “Can’t you do both?” Emanuel replied, “I’m not as capable as you. I’m going to be a father. I’m allowed to be a father,” and he pushed the reporter’s digital recorder away.

Russia's Communists Sound Like Rahm Emanuel

This is what the Russian Communists are saying:

Russia's Communists expect the global financial crisis will cause social unrest and help them challenge for power, the party's leader said on Saturday. Gennady Zyuganov told the party's annual congress the Communists should make maximum use of the growing public discontent caused by the economic downturn to try to restore their political strength.

And this is what Rahm Emanuel, Obama's Chief of Staff said 11 days ago:

He stressed that the new administration would "throw long and deep," taking advantage of the economic crisis to push wholesale changes in health care, taxes, financial re-regulation and energy.

Emanuel Lets the Cat of the Bag: Obama will Use Economic Crisis to Push Agenda -- Threatens a Revolt and Mandatory Collective Solutions

What can I tell you? Just read and reflect. You guys are smart. You'll know the score.

President-elect Barack Obama's incoming White House chief of staff challenged chief executives and other business leaders Tuesday night to join the new administration in a push for universal health care, saying incremental increases in coverage won't be acceptable.

"When it gets rough out there, a lot of business leaders get out of the car and say, 'We're OK with minor reform.' I'm challenging you today, we're going to have to do big, serious things," Rahm Emanuel said, speaking to The Wall Street Journal's CEO Council, a conference convened to elicit corporate opinion on the challenges facing the new president.

He said business leaders should help find solutions to the middle-class squeeze or face a revolt. "We need a strategy as a country to make sure they have an opportunity to move up that ladder," he said.

Mr. Emanuel promised that a major economic stimulus would be "the first order of business" for Mr. Obama when he takes office Jan. 20. The focus of spending will be on infrastructure, specifically "green infrastructure," which he said would include mass transit, upgraded electricity transmission lines, "smart" electrical meters that allow consumers to save money by using electricity at off-peak hours, and universal broadband Internet access, which he said would encourage telecommuting.

He stressed that the new administration would "throw long and deep," taking advantage of the economic crisis to push wholesale changes in health care, taxes, financial re-regulation and energy. "The American people in two successive elections have voted for change, and change cannot be allowed to die on the doorsteps of Washington," Mr. Emanuel said.

SHOCKING DISCOVERY: 2006 Audio of Rahm Emanuel Proposing Mandatory Civil Service Plan

In a 2006 interview with Ben Smith of the NY Daily News, Rahm Emanuel, who will be Barack Obama's White House chief of staff, laughed at a reporter's concerns about how far-reaching Obama's mandatory civil-service plan would be.

"There can be nothing wrong with all Americans having a joint similar experience of civil...what we call civil defense training or civil service...some sense of service to country in preparation, which will give people a sense of what it means to be an American."



How is this funny Rahm? Oh sure, the Germans laughed about the Hitler Youth too, but we see how that worked out.

You might remember Obama suggesting this same plan.



You might also recall Obama being busted changing his youth corps "requirement" to a "goal". You should, it was just last week. That change was made only after conservative bloggers raised hell about Obama's stated goal on his website. Then and only then did they restate their intentions. Emanuel's and Obama's statements, however, reveal their true intentions. Hold your children close to your bosom. Do not surrender them to the State.
