Obama’s Council of Ten Governators Takes Shape 2/2010

The creation of a CG should be of serious concern to all liberty loving Americans. The mistaken belief that the American people have nothing to fear from an overreaching federal government is pure folly! We have far more to fear from Washington, DC than from Iran, Iraq, North Korea, or any other potential terrorist state. It is Washington, DC alone that has the power, opportunity, and propensity to squash our freedom and sell us into tyranny.

As Kurt Nimmo reports, “…with the stroke of a pen, Obama significantly increased the ongoing effort to federalize the states and take control of the National Guard in violation of the now more or less moribund Posse Comitatus Act. Posse Comitatus was effectively annulled by the 2006 John Warner National Defense Authorization Act. The act provides the president with power to declare martial law under revisions to the Insurrection Act and take charge of United States National Guard troops without state governor authorization. Parts of the act were repealed in 2008.” (1)

Most Americans fail to realize (thanks to the national propaganda press corps of America’s ruling class) is that the subdivision of the United States into a 10-region country (thereby negating the sovereignty and authority of the 50 independent and autonomous states) goes back to the Richard Nixon administration.

In response to pressure from the United Nations, President Nixon issued Executive Order #11647 on February 10, 1972, which carved up the United States into 10 “standard Federal regions.” (2) CuttingEdge.org director David Bay commented at the time, “This regional system is also apparently a military structure.”

The Council of Governors, as it coincides with the respective 10 regions, has two basic criteria: a) the location of necessary government infrastructure, facilities, personnel, etc., combined with b) the compliant attitude and overall disposition of the governor selected. Here is how it looks.
