What Motivates Obama?

Yes, I know that all politicians do it, speaking out of both sides of their mouth. Obama makes John Kerry look like a rank amateur as a “flipper”.

  • He campaigned on closing GITMO, thankfully he saw the light and is leaving it open for now
  • He voted against going to Iraq as a Senator, said we needn’t be there, yet we’re still there.
  • Took over ninety days to authorize the Afghanistan “surge” and announced our withdrawal date to the whole world at the same time
  • Killed the second installation of  our “Star Wars” missile defense system in eastern Europe, in the direct flight path of Iran
  • Killed all future NASA manned space programs, redirecting their focus on “climate-change”
  • Began military actions in Somalia, Libya, and Yemen without Congressional authorization

Compromises and Acts that led to The Civil War

This installment will cover the events and compromises that led to armed conflict and the secession of the southern states.

This country was founded upon the Articles of Confederation which were  designed to bring the states together and repel any threat of invasion by foreign powers.  If your state was threatened then all would join in the effort to repel the invaders.  The Revolutionary War was fought under this authority.  When our Founding Fathers gathered in 1787 to write the Constitution the most divisive issue was slavery.  The first compromise came when the Northwest Ordinance was adopted.  The future states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Michigan were the northwest territory at that time.  The agreement was that this area would be slave free, and in the southern states, slavery would remain legal.  The Mission Statement of the Constitution was to “form a more perfect Union” however, the Constitution failed to address the 17% of the population who were slaves and would remain less than equal by law.
