http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/jillsteinblue.jpg

Barack Obama is signing the draconian National Defense Authorization Act. Presidential candidate Jill Stein, on the other hand, supports the vigorous defense of our constitutional rights from the Homeland Security regime of draconian paranoia. This week, the Stein for President campaign released a video strongly criticizing Barack Obama’s decision to support the imprisonment of Americans without trial.

Religion Mixed Much More Into Obama Campaign Than Jill Stein and Rocky Anderson Campaigns

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/obamareligioustool.jpg

In 2012, Barack Obama’s campaign is once again filled with efforts to make American electoral politics a matter of religion. Jill Stein and Rocky Anderson are almost completely leaving religion out of their presidential campaigns.

Obama Is Worse Than Bush On Rule Of Law, Says Rocky Anderson

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/realchangethistime.jpg

Rocky Anderson reminds me that Obama’s troubling disregard for America’s constitutional rights was made quite clear during the 2008 presidential election. We spent a great deal of time here at Irregular Times during the summer and autumn of 2008 discussing Barack Obama’s support for the terrible FISA Amendments Act – a law that gave immunity to telecommunications corporations for breaking federal law by providing government spies with information about millions of Americans’ private communications data.

White House Says No to Over the Counter Plan B Pill. Which White House?

More Americans Arrested In Nationwide Protests Against Obama’s Arbitrary Imprisonment Law

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/ndaawhitehouseprotest.jpg

The protesters outside the White House weren’t being violent. They didn’t attempt to climb over the fence that separates President Obama from the rest of America. They were only arrested for getting “too close”, thrown into jail for daring to engage in a political protest in a public plaza.

Protests Against Obama Policy Of Imprisonment of Americans Without Trial

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/ndaaprotests.jpg

The Director of the Iowa Democratic Party, Norm Sterzenbach, seemed to think that liberal dissent against the Democratic Party, and not the creation of extreme unconstitutional powers of imprisonment, was the problem. Do they really not understand that Democratic voters are leaving the Democratic Party because Obama and the congressional Democrats are repeating the terrible mistakes of George W. Bush?

XL Pipeline Push For 2 Months Unemployment A Terrible Exchange

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/pipelineongreen.jpg

Just two months of unemployment benefits and a temporary lifeline for payroll tax cuts in exchange for a political time bomb planted in the middle of the 2012 Obama re-election campaign is a terrible deal. It’s not a fair exchange in the first place, but more importantly, this temporary deal allows Republicans to practice yet more political extortion in January and February, when payroll tax cuts and unemployment benefits will be up for debate once again.

Jonathan Turley Deceives About Obama’s Support For UN Religious Tolerance Resolution

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/turleydishonest.jpg

There are real instances of religious discrimination. There’s no need for Jonathan Turley to go making up stories about threats to religious freedom. That’s just what he has done, however, with his dishonest and inaccurate article about United Nations Human Rights resolution 16/18.

Occupation Protesters Turn Against Democratic Party After Pepper Spray

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/obamadavisresolution.jpg

It’s not so difficult to predict what will happen when President Obama stands by while his Homeland Security network promotes brutal violence against the very same activists who supported his election in 2008: Those activists are going to turn against Barack Obama, and against the Democratic Party in general.
