"Strange Bedfellows"

What constitutes terrorism? What is the most devastating act that one could perpetrate that would cause the most damage to the American way of life? Obviously, 911 had a devastating effect on America; thousands of innocent Americans senselessly murdered by cowardly fanatics will be etched into our minds for generations. All of us have strong feelings about that date. What could be worse than that? Possibly a criminal conspiracy to collapse the American economy in an attempt to totally change the American free enterprise system would qualify as the worst thing that could happen to our people.

Within the last few days, we have seen the evidence of a criminal conspiracy to destroy the American banking system by manipulating the mortgage market by advocating the deliberate non-payment of mortgage debt to the loan holding financial institutions. This is economic terrorism!

Stephen Lerner, a member of note in SEIU, has been recorded saying that current mortgage holders should withhold payment in order to put undue stress on the American banking system, causing it to collapse. This was stated during a progressive conference in New York last week-end. It must also be noted that Mr. Lerner has been a frequent visitor to the Obama White House, being there four times over the last two years. What is that saying about politics makes for "strange bedfellows"?

This revelation has caused Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT.) to send a letter to our esteemed Attorney General, Eric Holder, as to what action our Justice Department will take. Rep. Chaffetz said the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform may, at any time, investigate any matter which could have such a grave impact on the American people.

I strongly urge all of my readers to research Mr. Lerner's statements in regards to this matter; they are both frightening and eye-opening. These statements reflect a callous and calculated plan to destroy the American economy with the purpose of installing a socialist system of redistribution of wealth and property, and the destruction of individual freedoms. Perhaps, I'm a little jaded, but I don't expect Mr. Holder to pursue any prosecution in this matter. Past experience shows that the Justice Department under Eric Holder has a tendency to "pick and choose" the violations it will prosecute. I would also like to hear from our Chief Executive in regards to his involvement with Mr. Lerner and SEIU. How about it Mr. President; what do you think?
