[PenDems (70)] Obama Regional Field Director Invites PenDems

The Pennnington County Democratic Party welcomes the coming primary
campaign as a time to celebrate our values as we back our candidates.
This is true from the precinct level all the way up to the
Presidential race. In that spirit, we are forwarding the following
from the Obama campaign. (Of course, we will also forward Clinton
campaign information when it comes!)

--

My name is Melissa Ness and I am the Regional Field Director for
western South Dakota. I arrived in Rapid City on Sunday and since
then I've begun setting up our office at 1315 Haines Ave. Suite C. We
are thrilled to be able to set up an office in Rapid City and we look
forward to working hard to ensure our victory here in South Dakota on
June 3rd. I wanted to extend a few invitations to you all in regards
to a few events we have going on in the near future.

Wednesday, April 16th at 7PM Organizational Meeting. We'll be meeting
at the office headquarters here in Rapid City to discuss planning for
our office open house this Sunday, overall campaign plan for the next
2 months and also suggestions for outreach opportunities in the area
that the campaign should be a part of. This is a chance for all of
you to help me get to know Rapid as well as to share some of the
things the campaign will be doing.

Sunday, April 20th at 4PM we'll be having our Office Open House. We
need to do a lot beforehand to set up the office (we're desperately in
need of furniture—chairs, desks/tables, couch, etc.) so if you're able
to donate anything until June 3rd we'd greatly appreciate it!

Tuesday, April 22nd at 6PM….Location(s) TBD: Pennsylvania Results
Watching Party. We want to get everyone together to watch as the
results come in from PA on Tuesday. This is going to be a close state
and an exciting one to watch. More details to come once locations are
decided.

Saturday, April 26th at 10 AM and 2 PM we'll be doing a phone bank and
a door-to-door canvass in Rapid City and the surrounding areas. This
is our first time to get out there as a team and register new
democrats! We'll target independents and try to get them to switch
over to be democrats for the primary. Meet up at the office for
supplies to head out on the doors or to join in making phone calls!

As you see we have a lot going on and we're starting at full force!
If you are interested in any of the following events please RSVP to me
at mness@barackobama.com

I look forward to meeting all of you soon!

-Melissa Ness

The April-May PenDem Voice is on the street!
The PenDem Voice newsletter should be arriving in your mailboxes. We are also encouraging folks to sign up by email or blog (to conserve trees, lower the PenDem "carbon footprint," and (of course) save up money for the 2008 election). You can view the newsletter online, on the West River Blue Blog.

Register a new Democratic voter today!
With the Presidential contest and all these great local Dem candidates, this is a great year to recruit independents and young voters into the Democratic fold. Many Independents and thoughtful Republicans are seeing that our Democratic values are what the nation needs right now to get our State and Nation back on the right track. Pennington County Dems will kick off a grassroots organizing effort to register voters before the historic June primary. Especially in Districts with uncontested races, we have a window of opportunity to get many more Democrats registered to vote in the Presidential Primary, so they will be with us in the fall! Watch for news on happenings in your legislative district over the next week.

District 32 Senate Race

Check out the front page story in today's (April 1) Rapid City Journal that describes the matchup between Democratic Senator Tom Katus and former Senator Stan Adelstein. And then vote for Tom in the online poll. http://www.rapidcityjournal.com/

Stan still claims he is not running "against Tom," just "for the seat."

Delegate Selection, Saturday, March 8

The South Dakota Democratic Party and Democratic legislative district parties will host Legislative District Presidential Delegate Selection caucuses across South Dakota on Saturday, March 8.

The 35 legislative district caucuses are the first of a two-tiered caucus system to select 10 delegates and three alternates to the Democratic National Convention in late August at Denver, Colo., Jack Billion, chair of the South Dakota Democratic Party, said. The 35 caucuses on March 8 will select delegates to the statewide caucus in Pierre on March 22, where slates of 10 potential national convention delegates and three alternates are chosen. Those names will appear below the names of Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., and Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., on the June 3 state primary ballot.

“We are working hard to reach out to each and every legislative district to increase the involvement of the people in the Democratic Party,” Billion said. “This is one of the most interesting and compelling elections in the last 50 years, and it has transformed the involvement of ordinary citizens in the political process. We’re seeing interest growing very quickly as our state’s primary election looms nearer.”

Billion said the first step to participating in the district caucus meetings is to complete a form which must be returned to the SDDP office in Sioux Falls before Wednesday. Forms are available from county party leaders and on the state party’s website, www.sddp.org.

Democrats attending the district meetings March 8 will elect slates pledged to either Clinton or Obama, or as uncommitted. The number of delegates assigned to each legislative district is based on an average of the votes from the district for the Democratic presidential candidates in 2000 and 2004.

The popular vote in the June 3 Democratic presidential primary in South Dakota will determine which of the slates of potential delegates and alternates will become delegates to the national convention. It is required that a candidate receives no less than 15 percent of the vote to qualify for candidates.

“If both candidates are still in contention by March 25 when the filing deadline occurs in South Dakota, their names and their slates of delegates will appear on the ballot. The share of delegates and alternates each candidate receives will be based on the percentage of the popular vote they received,” Billion said. “For example, if Clinton receives 60 percent of the vote and Obama receives 40 percent on June 3, then the first six names under Clinton name and first two alternates get to go to Denver, and the first four names under Obama’s name get to be delegates and the first alternate candidate gets to go to Denver.

Six additional delegates and one more alternate will be chosen by the Democratic State Central Committee at the S.D. Democratic State Convention on June 28. Another class of delegates, who are chosen by their position in the state party, are the “super-delegates,” the state party’s chair, vice chair, Democratic National Committeeman, Democratic National Committeewoman, Sen. Tim Johnson, Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin and former Sen. Tom Daschle. The total size of South Dakota’s convention delegation is 23 delegates and four alternates.

The following is a list of district caucus meetings on March 8, the times and locations and the number of delegates to the state caucus allowed to each campaign at the district caucuses.

Legislative District 1 – 10 a.m.
10 delegates, three alternates
Dakota Diner, Webster, S.D.

Legislative Districts 2 and 3 – 10 a.m.
Nine delegates, two alternates for District 2
Eight delegates, two alternates for District 3

Russians Behind Wildfires, Explosions in Michigan, Treason In America

The following eyewitness reports paint a sobering picture of what is going in America.

 

July 23, 2012  (stevequayle website)

 

Steve,

 

There have been numerous events around Colorado in the current weeks. Recently, here in my area. A good friend was at a shooting range on 7-21-12. He was there only a short time, and called me. He said there were 3 very "buffed" men at one end of the range, and that they were speaking both perfect English and Russian at the same time! (As I understand it, from talking to a gentleman who knows, you would have to start a child at 5 yrs. old to accomplish that.)

 

My friend spent quite a bit of time with them. Asked them what they were doing in the States. Said they were"mechanical engineers" . My friend, former military and and an armorer, said he had never seen pistol shooting like that. 2 and 3 inch groups at 25 yards, rapid fire. He said, "You guys shoot pretty darn good for "mechanical engineers"! The younger of the 3 asked my friend if he would like to shoot his rifle. He said, "Sure"! After picking up the piece, he said he noticed it had a Red Star on the scope! He told the 'ENGINEER", "Hey! This is Russian military!" The Man said," Really?" He also told me the ammo was not sold in the States. It WAS Russian military issue. He said the reticle was as good as he had ever seen. He then said, "You guys sure you aren't Russian military!" At this point they got somewhat upset. He asked where they had been, The told him they been up in Canada, the younger of the 2, that is. They shot a little more, then left. Headed for the range office to check out.

 

Upon arrival at the range office, told the young lady in the office, "That was kinda weird, shooting with Russian guys with military gear. She said, "Oh, there's lots of them!" My friend being stunned, said "What!' She said, "Oh Yeah, there's alot of them that shoot here!"

 

Having said that, it appears we have a "Spetnatz Nest" in No. Colo. Very rural and isolated at this range. Not much out there.

 

Upon making some contact calls, appears I might have a possible place for where they are placed. Will do a little "road trip" soon.

 

Also, a longtime friend has been doing some "vacation time" in SW Colo. Spotted Russian troops, In Uniform down in Creed Co. 12 with European style motorbikes. Spotted a local Deputy, walked over to him. Said, "What are these "Foreign troops doin' here?!".  The Deputy just rolled his eyes and walked off! My friend walked over to them and said, "Things are a little different here than in Mother Russia" They looked at him and just walked away.

 

A couple of days later, he was down by Wolf Creek, going to see the falls there. This was along Highway 149 going to Pagosa Springs.  There about 3 mins., a Russian helo flew over their heads at treetop level, moving fast. We have seen 4 different Russian helos here in No. Colo.

 

Also, during the "Exercise" at Ft. Carson, a friend of 20 yrs. who is a documentary maker called live from the base. Said, "Guess what I'm Looking at" I said, "What?". He said, "Black C-130's with Red stars on the tails, doin' touch and go's"

 

Thats all for now, Steve. Will send more.

 

Keep The Good Work!!
God Bless,
"Mini-V"

 

May 13, 2012  (stevequayle website)

 

A week ago I was at Fort Carson on business picking up surplus equipment for the town I represent under a government program that gives surplus military equipment to local law enforcement agencies.

 

We're going into what is commonly referred to as a boneyard as a group of soldiers were coming out through a small gate. I accidentally bumped into one of the soldiers and he turned and apologized in Russian, I took a quick look at his uniform and noticed that there were no insignias of any type or name tags.

 

Being that he told me he was sorry in Russian I responded no problem in German and received a very dirty look. At that time a man that looked like a 1950s KGB agent walked up to him grabbing him by the collar and shook him as he screamed at him.   "English, you idiot, English."

 

By the time he finished yelling at him we were out of range and I couldn't tell what else was said but this was a platoon size unit of young man that seem to be very fit and I would not doubt that there are members of the Russian special forces. I have a little experience in spotting soldiers as I was in the Army as a military police officer for 10 years.

 

Will return to the administration building I ran into someone I met after Hurricane Katrina and we began speaking as I congratulated him about his promotion "whose name and rank I will not divulge" he tried me to his office and we spoke for about 20 min. while our chief law enforcement officer was signing out the vehicles.

 

The conversation turns in the past and present as he was surprised to see me in the uniform I was wearing and I asked him about the Russian troops. He started to stammer and he said what Russian troops? And my reply was the one I bumped into that study excuse me in Russian and his KGB handler who start raising hell with him.

 

He broke in to remind me that KGB no longer exist, on my reply was that, yes the KGB's gone, but they're using another name now and they are still in business.

 

He acknowledged that there were Russian troops on the base by head nod and asked him are they training with the 10th Mountain division again all I had for an answer was a head nod, then I asked why in the hell are we training the Russians with our best troops and he whispered that we are not training them, wer'e training with them. At that point he said he was busy and had to get back to work, it was nice seeing me and get the hell out.

 

Former State Trooper Greg Evenson has posted corroborating intel at  theheartlandusa.com  the following is excerpted from his post.

 

By Dr. Greg Evensen ? July 19, 2012

 

Most recently, I have received information from a retired senior commanderl who is in a network of "old school" senior officers evaluating the known intelligence concerning a two front combat theater of operations. To keep as much information available to an involved cadre of military and law enforcement agents/agencies, this unofficial, undirected, yet highly qualified working group, has arrived at the conclusion point as I will describe it here.

 

The overall engagement strategy here is to entice the American military into pledging huge naval assets in the gulf region. The Straits of Hormuz is the "choke point" for all things challenging to Iran. It is here that the Iranian Navy and Air Force will have their greatest chance to inflict REAL damage on our (homosexually celebrated) armed forces. This is a real point of smack down for the Muslims to bring utter destruction on the American military, the American armed forces, and the American people (infidel society). The Russians and Chinese do NOT have the immediate design or permission from the luciferians to openly face the Americans, however; they will be in the command and control loop that manages the combat theater, once operations begin. This entire scheme is part of a feint to also run interference at Diego Garcia, the staging area for material' and air support. Russian, Chinese and North Korean subs are stationed there with surface ship support. It is clear that events are moving toward an engagement of historic proportions and cataclysmic repercussions on a Biblical scale. The Pentagon is operating on bluster and ineptitude on a staggering scale. Homosexuality has reached the highest levels of the Pentagon as well. The former officers who have seen this coming have disowned many of their complicit former colleagues, while watching in dismay as they move ahead with stupefyingly poor planning surrounding the commitment of at least two and possibly three Naval Carrier Task Force groups now in great harms way. (I add with emphasis the FEAR of these former officers who despise the surrender to politically correct forces in the White House and ladder climbers in the Pentagon who have set up our military for an incredibly disastrous defeat because they recognize God will not allow a "victory" by sodomite Generals on the field of battle. Their view and mine as well).

 

The "second" front is America itself. Combat troops from Russia and 14 nations, air assets, armor and artillery, fighter suppression through anti-aircraft batteries on movable platforms that can respond to changing air response grids as well as logistics, hardened communications and transportation hubs, compliment a training contingent that has masqueraded as "friendly forces." The apparent use of some type of advanced accelerant in the massive western fires defies understanding or previous experience by firefighters in that region. "Almost nuclear" in its ability to spread fire and not be quenched by normal fire suppression methods suggests, but cannot yet be confirmed by scientific testing in labs, that intentional human complicity in the fires is virtually certain. Specific battle plans in war call for the destruction of natural and man made infrastructure by fire, specifically calling for great monetary, human and technological assets to be used fighting the fires as both a distraction and a planned reduction of the area involved to produce or exist on a "normal" basis.

 

Add to all of this the ongoing destruction of the US currency, the pending imposition of the UN Small Arms Treaty, the 50% per year for five years additional/compounded levels of door to door urban warfare-shoot to kill-to enforce gun confiscation training by US police and military, the published records of civilian firearms suppression training by all levels of police agencies in America, the acquisition of tactical equipment and automatic weapons issuance to street police is unprecedented and overwhelming in its scope and design. The obvious implication is that these forces are anticipating widespread resistance and engagement with the American citizenry at a point to be determined after the "trip wire" events occur that will "justify" the intervention of such heavily equipped domestic police and military guard units and foreign troops. (end excerpt)

 

( dailysheeple com )  Arizona says July 1 2012 at 11;39 pm :  

 

I live in colorado and talk to these firefighters and I keep hearing RUSSIAN military are setting these fires,one fire fighter told me they caught russians setting off explosives six different times and the police would not arrest them so they came back home and said they ain't fighting no more fires,well I guest they found something to keep all the russian troops busy in denver, SETTING FIRES……

 

May 24th 2012,  (stevequayle website)

 

I am a U.S. Air Force veteran of the cold and vietnam war. I guarded nuclear weapons and uploaded nuclear B-52 bombers at two Strategic Air cCommand locations in the U.S. during the early 70's. I was trained to recognize various types and configurations of enemy and friendly aircraft from that era I said this in order to qualify myself to you as to what I observed in Denver Colorado on May 8th. I had taken a business trip to Denver for a week and spent a week there in the Aurora section of Denver. On May 8th I entered a large park to walk my dog in Aurora at approximately 10 a.m. I noticed a large solid white aircraft fly over the park at approximately 500 ft and it was traveling about as slowly as a jet aircraft could fly without stalling. It banked right and turned to the side and I stood there watching it and trying to figure out not only what it was doing but exactly what type of military aircraft that it was. When it completed banking right I was shocked because I was now looking at a large clear cock-pit for at least two men and a nose confirguration that was uniquely Russian. I then realized that I was looking at a Russian Back-Fire Bomber that was painted completely white with no markings whatsoever. It seemed to be circling over the city either to observe Denver or even to be observed almost as if it were showing off. It then left the area and I never observed it again. I am still unsettled about what I observed on May 8th and I still possess an ominous feeling about it.

WOW! I live near Ft Carson/Denver and have noticed some very strange things lately, to see this blows my mind! For the past few weeks I have seen more military marked vehicles that have sattelite dishes and all sorts of electronics on them, sometimes in large convoys and sometimes alone. I have seen some with Airforce markings and some with DOD seals on the doors. This last sunday my wife and I were having a picnic in the woods west of Ft Carson and had a C-130 flying tree top level for a few hours, touch and goes I suspect. Being an exparatrooper, and knowing the C130 is a paratrooper favorite, I wonder if they weren't practicing for their visitors. I've been here 12 yrs and never saw ANY activity with the unmarked, non military looking high tech vehicles, and certainly not in such huge numbers. It was creeping me out before I learned of this "exercise", now I'm really creeped out. To be clear, these weren't your average, HUMVE and support vehicles, these were highly modified GMC trucks, they look much like ambulances in shape. There was a time when I wouldn't post such things, but we can't trust our own people anymore and the citizens need to know. Very strange and I don't like it.

 

The Russian special forces are also responsible for the multiple underground explosions that occurred in Michigan on June 6, 2012, one of which was a mini nuke that set off radiation detectors in multiple states. The explosions were an attempt to set off the New Madrid Fault. When the attacks failed to achieve the objective the attacks were immediately covered up after initially being reported by local news media.      google...  natural news multiple explosions in Michigan  
 
 
 
A Message From Our Saviour ( June 9, 2012)
 
 "Treason from within: the Russian attacks on America!"
 

My Blessed Child, I am your Father Yahweh, yea Jehovah, Most High  God!  My Blessed Child, the alarm bells are sounding for this nation!  Very great alarm bells! And, you, as a nation, are sleeping!  For, a Trojan Horse has entered into this nation!  You have widely opened your gates, and the Trojan Horse has entered in!

While you, as a nation slept, they worked; and still you are in the dark about their works.  What is this Trojan Horse, and who are these, who have entered into your gates, whose works will have remained hidden?

I tell you that this Trojan Horse is the Russian Operation in your nation.  Their true intents and purposes have remained hidden from you, the masses!   And, their works have been in the dark; and sadly for you as a nation, the leader of this nation bowed to them!  He broke to their demands and he opened wide the doors of your nation to these infiltrators.

Do not be naïve!  The Russians, who supposedly came in for joint, military exercises, have not left; and their joint experiences have all been terminated, except for some very few.

Now, their experiences are known primarily to themselves and to a very few at the highest levels of your government. For, their collaborative efforts are to keep in power the one, who is in power over this nation. And, their combined schemes are to destroy this nation and to put it totally into the hands of your enemies.  Do not believe that the Russian troops have left!  They have only gone underground.

You will see more underground nuclear explosions, like the underground explosion, which was reported in and around the Indiana/Michigan area. You have also seen that this nuclear explosion and its radioactivity were immediately covered up. For, when the Russians came, they brought nuclear devices.

Why would the Russians need to bring war planes into this nation; and why would you, as a nation, allow even one of their war planes to come into your nation?

When the Russians came, they brought nuclear devices. They brought explosive devices; and they intend to set off the New Madrid fault.  They are viciously attacking the New Madrid fault zone with both nuclear devices and with their terrible weapons, which are known to cause earthquakes. They have also been busy setting fires and they plan to blow up nuclear power plants and to destroy dams.

They have been allowed into this nation for the sole purposes of destabilizing this nation!  You will not recognize these Russian infiltrators. Their mannerisms and their training have been perfected so that they will neither be recognized, nor suspected as foreign. They are on your streets, in your tunnels, in your cities, in your subways, and in your countryside;  and they have been brought in, brought into your nation by a few at the very top of this nation, particularly by your President.  For, he will use their instabilities to get his iron grip on your nation.  And, he will use their money to keep his place. Soon, devastating explosions will rip this nation from one end to the other.
 
You opened up and you allowed these troops and these many explosions to be brought in through Russian aircraft and vehicles.  The plot is from within and the great treason is from within this nation.

I am showing you their works.  I am not just telling you their plans; for their plans will come to pass in great measure.  I am showing you their works: fires in New Mexico; fires in Colorado, nuclear explosions and various kinds of attacks on the New Madrid Fault lines. But, among their plans are planned attacks on your nuclear power plants, planned attacks on your dams and bridges, fires, fires all across this nation, many fires and explosions, and the planned release of poisonous gases!  Yes, they plan to release the poisonous gases, and soon!  ( The booms/explosions returned to Clintonville Wisconson again in July. Google.. the mysterious booms are back! July 24, 2012


Now, you see!  Now, you know!  There is a president in this nation, who is a true Russian intelligence agent!  He is one among them; and he has been one among them for most of his adult life.

Will one change the feathers of a bird?  And, will this bird easily give up his power?  He will not, for his controllers will not. And, his controllers are not just the Russians, but, as you know, his controllers also control the world's wealth.  Therefore, he will do as he is told to do; for he is Satan's frontrunner, who controls the military and who will also bring this nation to its knees through the violence of this Trojan Horse; and also through the violence of the international banking cartel.

I tell you these important truths! For, soon, very soon, the poisonous gases will fill the skies and fires of all sorts will erupt all over this nation, fires and explosions, and a very great destabilization of the New Madrid Fault will take place.

And, you shall hear! Chicago is fallen! Chicago is fallen!  Chicago is fallen, and so great are the numbers of the dead!  For, Chicago is fallen and the city is broken, clean broken down! For, a very great earthquake will rip through Chicago!

Hear Me in this!  The plans of their great works are to rupture the Great Lakes! See their evil works! See what they do!  For, in this way, Chicago shall fall!

I am your Father, Yahweh, yea Jehovah, Most High God!

The Lord gave me yet another dream last night but this one was different it felt more like a warning. Anyways this is what I was shown. I was fallowing a military convoy when a portion of the road we were on gave way and one of there trucks got stuck so I stoped my car and got out to help them. After I had helped them to get their truck moving again one of their people came and helped me back up and asked me if I would fallow them back to base because her commander would like to thank me personaly. So I did and after I was finished with the commander the soldier that I had spoken with earlier found me and started to speak with me. I asked her what the convoy was for and she told me that she couldn't say so I asked her point blank if it was for population control and marshal law and with a sigh she pulled me aside and said yes. So I asked her if that meant that the NDAA was going to be enforced and the prison camps would be activated and again she told me yes and that its not just the american military that will be active and that half of that convoy was russian. And then I asked her when it would happen and she said that she didnt know but that it would be soon and that I need to get my family ready to flee because it is going to happen fast. My final question to her was did she know that when they are done with us that they would kill them next, but she didnt answer she simply turned and walked away. Steve I am not exactly positive about what the Lord is telling me other than watch and pray so that we may hear him when he tells us to flee. And as always I am praying for you and this nation so that people will wake up. God I pray that they do before its too late. J.

    Have been reporting on convoys of white (UN?) 1 tons to 5 tons with highly sophisticated built in communications systems on the move here in Northern California. Saw another three today out running errands.

    Looks like the UN is moving in.

    Let's keep talking folks, 'Communication' is a huge part of warfare.

    Thank You for the excellent report Shepard! Learned some things that Watson did not cover today.

    Good Luck Patriots! Every American Counts!

      Repeatedly, just north of Los Angeles, we keep seeing very high luxury looking Motorhomes pulling white dual axle trailers, usually used for hauling atv's. Except, these are not regular motorhomes. Typically rv's of this size will have up to 365¢each a/c units and one satellite tv domes. These units have as many as 8the a/c units and 3one satellite domes. These are clearly unmarked military vehicles. The only thing needing that many a/c units are computer servers, . Todays military communications are extremely dependent on computer servers and satellite radio systems. It's funny ironic, not funny haha, these rv's come in all different colors but the trailers being pulled are always plain white, no markings at all, probably so any rv can pull any trailer. Usually folks that can afford these rv's, also have matching trailers. Would love to hear if anyone else has seen units like this. Keep an eye on how many a/c units are on top!

       
  • Jeff Martin says: April 27, 2012 at 10:58 pm

    I live in Missoula, Montana. On April 25, 2012, I saw a train load of camoed military vehicles on that train heading East. Maybe 100 or more. I spent 9 years in the military and I can't say what these vehicles were. Most were the same and small, maybe in the 3/4 or 1 ton class. Small and highly mobile looking.?

     
     

excerpted from the prophecies org

 

Nov 20, 2008

 

Just know, My Little One, that his roots go deep, that his roots are dark, and that they stretch wide in Communist/Marxist teachings and doctrines, even as I have shown you in a previous vision! For, these words and visions of our Father are also My words and visions to you! Obama has been brought through the ranks and has been deeply indoctrinated and trained in subversive techniques. And, he has been groomed and prepared for this time of world communism and Satanism; for nothing of such a magnitude happens in Satan's kingdom by chance! But, even so, am I not in all of this?

 

You, Oh, My People in this nation have refused Me! You have refused our Father! You have forsaken righteousness, preferring instead to follow after the world, and to trust in the arm of the flesh, and to believe in men and their powers! Yes, indeed, to trust in a wicked government to rescue you, to fix your problems and to provide for you!

 

Now comes the very antichrist into your midst and you see it not! For, you are looking for someone to SAVE you from your own downfall! You are looking to a man to fix the world situation! You are looking to a man to save you from war, to save your houses, to save your jobs and to save your families! Yes, you are looking to a man and I have given you a man, who will lie to you! He will tell you every smooth tale! He will con you with every smooth plan, even as he leads this nation off a cliff, to a point of no return. Even as he sets up death camps in your midst and even as he executes your families and even as he ravages your land with war and destruction, he will tell you that this if for your own good! Even as he beheads and kills you by the hundreds of thousands, oh yes, he will tell you that the terrorists and the dissidents must be purged.

 

Oh, yes he will do these things! He will cast you into a third world war and quickly so, to cause you to be attacked and to be annihilated and/or carried away by the foreign soldiers. But, he will not be satisfied with only bringing this nation to its knees. He will look to the whole world, and wish to conquer the whole world; and to bring to its knees the whole economic system in the world.

 

For, he would have all in the world to bend a knee to him and to worship him. And, many, many will bow and serve him and many, many will worship him and many, many will take the mark of the beast. But, the tried and true will not! My Faithful will not, yet these things shall be; for they are now upon you!

 

Be not troubled, My Little One, for even so, all of these things must be! I tell you now that Barack Hussein Obama is the antichrist and that the false prophet is also already known and is standing in the shadows. For, now is the time that the world knows, even as I have told you, that Barack Hussein is the antichrist and he will rise over this wicked nation! And, know that our Father has placed him here and many, many of you have believed a great lie! Yes, you have first loved a lie!

 

I have called and sent My prophets throughout this nation to warn you to repent of your wicked ways, and you would not! You would not receive My warnings of correction, but have overwhelmingly scoffed at My warnings to repent, or perish. Therefore, your hour is at hand, wherein I will raise up the antichrist over this land, and you will drink of the bitter cup of your own sins! For, oh so wicked you are, Oh Nation of America!  (end excerpt)

During the period of roughly February 1992 to mid 1994, I was making frequent trips to Moscow, Russia, in the process of starting a software development joint-venture company with some people from the Russian scientific community. One of the men in charge on the Russian side was named V. M.; he had a wife named T.M.  V. was a level-headed scientist while his wife was rather deeply committed to the losing Communist cause - a cause she obviously was not abandoning.

 

One evening, during a trip early in 1992, the American half of our venture were invited to V. & T.'s Moscow flat as we were about to return to the States. The party went well and we had the normal dinner discussions. As the evening wore on, T. developed a decidedly rough anti-American edge - one her husband tried to quietly rein in. The bottom line of the tirade she started against the United States went something like this:

 

"You Americans always like to think that you have the perfect government and your people are always so perfect. Well then, why haven't you had a woman president by now? You had a chance to vote for a woman vice-president and you didn't do it."

 

The general response went something along the lines that you don't vote for someone just because of their sex. Besides, you don't vote for vice-president, but the president and vice-president as a ticket. "Well, I think you are going to be surprised when you get a black president very soon."

 

The consensus we expressed was that we didn't think there was anything innately barring that. The right person at the right time and sure, America would try to vote for the right person, be he or she black or not.

 

"What if I told you that you will have a black president very soon and he will be a Communist?" The out-of-the-blue remark was met by our stares. She continued, "Well, you will; and he will be a Communist." It was then that the husband unsuccessfully tried to change the subject; but she was on a roll and would have nothing of it. One of us asked, "It sounds like you know something we don't know."

 

"Yes, it is true. This is not some idle talk. He is already born and he is educated and being groomed to be president right now. You will be impressed to know that he has gone to the best schools of Presidents. He is what you call "Ivy League". You don't believe me, but he is real and I even know his name. His name is Barack. His mother is white and American and his father is black from Africa. That's right, a chocolate baby! And he's going to be your President."

 

She became more and more smug as she presented her stream of detailed knowledge and predictions so matter-of-factly - as though all were foregone conclusions. "It's all been thought out. His father is not an American black so he won't have that social slave stigma. He is intelligent and he is half white and has been raised from the cradle to be an atheist and a Communist. He's gone to the finest schools. He is being guided every step of the way and he will be irresistible to America."


We sat there not knowing what to say. She was obviously very happy that the Communists were doing this and that it would somehow be a thumbing of their collective noses at America: they would give us a black president and he'd be a Communist to boot. She made it quite obvious that she thought that this was going to breathe new life into world Communism. From this and other conversations with her, she always asserted that Communism was far from dead.

 

She was full of little details about him that she was eager to relate. I thought that maybe she was trying to show off that this truly was a real person and not just hot air. She rattled off a complete litany. He was from Hawaii. He went to school in California. He lived in Chicago. He was soon to be elected to the legislature. "Have no doubt: he is one of us, a Soviet."

 

At one point, she related some sort of San Francisco connection, but I didn't understand what the point was and don't recall much about that. I was just left with the notion that she considered the city to be some sort of a center for their activity here.


Since I had dabbled in languages, I knew a smattering of Arabic. I made a comment: "If I remember correctly, 'Barack' comes from the Arabic word for 'Blessing.' That seems to be an odd name for an American." She replied quickly, "Yes. It is 'African'", she insisted, "and he will be a blessing for world Communism. We will regain our strength and become the number one power in the world."

 

She continued with something to the effect that America was at the same time the great hope and the great obstacle for Communism. America would have to be converted to Communism and Barack was going to pave the way.
So, what does this conversation from 1992 prove?

 

Well, it's definitely anecdotal. It doesn't prove that Obama has had Soviet Communist training nor that he was groomed to be the first black American president, but it does show one thing that I think is very important. It shows that Soviet Russian Communists knew of Barack from a very early date. It also shows that they truly believed among themselves that he was raised and groomed Communist to pave the way for their future. This report on Barack came personally to me from one of them long before America knew he existed.

 

Although I had never before heard of him, at the time of this conversation Obama was 30+ years old and was obviously tested enough that he was their anticipated rising star.

 

 

"The Third Great Judgement!"

The Great Methane Bubble beneath the Gulf of Mexico is melting;

And its' terrible gases are rolling forth!

Repent, oh you people!

June 30, 2012

 

My Blessed Child, I am your Father Yahweh, yea Jehovah, Most High God, yes Jesus, Lord of Lords and King of Kings! I tell you again, that I am One and the Same!  I am your Saviour! I am your Redeemer; and I am Most High God; and besides Me, there is none! But, there come those, who wish to quibble, who wish to find fault and who wish to dispute the truth of who I am! And some say, "She speaks to another Jesus! She hears from another God!"  But, I tell you, My Blessed Child, that among these very mockers are those, who speak to another god. They speak to another jesus! For, I am not found among them; and these include some of your biggest critics, who control the churches, and who mock these works.

 

But, now, My Blessed Child, I come to you and I tell you a very important thing!  And, this very important word is about to accelerate all of My judgements in the earth! Yes, people will look here and they will look there and they will say, "Oh, look at these Satanists! Oh, look what they do!" But, I tell you this! Hear Me in this! For, I am empowering the Satanists over you! 

 

Just as I raised up Nebuchadnezzar and I empowered Nebuchadnezzar to come forward and to overrun and defeat My people, who did evil and who would not heed the warnings of My prophets, I have now raised up another in your midst!  Indeed, he is Satan's choice and Satan has put him over you through his secret organizations. But, I tell you now that I control Satan!  He does what I allow and what I command!

 

I wrote the Book of Revelation; and I have spoken through My prophets down through the ages, for this is what My people chose. And, I have honored their choices!

 

The antichrist in our midst!

 

But now, hear Me in this!  Make no mistake about it!  Barack Obama is the antichrist!  Whine all you want! Be in denial all that you want, but you will not change who he is; and you will not change the fact that I put him over you!

 

He is your worst nightmare, oh America; for he will burn you down and laugh as he sees you burning!  He has no allegiance to America; for his allegiance is to Satan; and this man's heart is set upon his rule of the whole world!

 

"The Time of the Burning!"

 

You, oh America, are but fodder for his fires, you wicked and adulterous peoples of America!  And, burn you will!  Yes, you will burn; and the fires will spread all across this nation, even before the nukes come!  Yes, you will burn, oh America!  For, you will not repent!  And, because you will not repent; and I have called out to you for many years to repent of your evil ways, and you will not hear My cries, I tell you that you will burn! (The Lord warned the prophet, Dumitru Duduman, that America will burn. We have now come to that time!)

 

Terrible Droughts and Famines!

 

And, the famines, great famines, will begin to rip across this land, from one city to another and from one part of this land to another! In years past, I warned you through My words, which I gave to My servant, Linda Newkirk. I told you that if you would not repent that I would dry up your corn fields, that I would bring famines; and you would not hear! You would not believe!

 

Now come the famines, and you can see it at your door! For, the droughts are so great!  And, now the great fires come, yet few of you can see them, and these fires continue on! Now comes also the time when your antichrist president will wallow in his victories! For, now comes also the time when he is coming into his power!

 

The Fall of America!

 

What will you do, oh you decadent nation of America?  You will fall! America will fall!  Yes, America will fall, and all over the world, the people will shudder!  They will panic!  They will fear with a great fear! For, they shall soon say, "America is fallen!" Yes, the whore of the world is fallen! That old wicked woman, who made the world to drink of the cup of her perversions, has fallen! 

 

Yet, not all will fear, but only those nations, who have depended upon you, will fear!  Many will rejoice!  Many will be joyful! They will be glad; for you, oh decadent nation of America have terrorized many nations!

 

Terrors From the South!

 

Now comes the time, and it is at your door, when many nations shall terrorize you, oh nation of America! For, as you have sown, so shall you reap!

 

The wind is coming! Yes, a very great wind from the South is coming!  A very great Southerly wind will come upon this nation and this wind from the South will greatly trouble you! 

 

Yes, the King of the South will rise up and he will collect his own nations; and they shall rise up to defeat and to overthrow this nation, not through war, not yet through war, but soon through war! However, at this time, they shall rise up; and soon, en masse, they will rise up to overthrow the dollar!  And, this wind will blow hot!  This wind will blow upon you with a great force and this great wind will cause you to suffer an irreparable crack in the economy of this nation. And, the rumbles of this great wind shall crash and crack and beat and dissolve, beat and dissolve, pound and pummel the very economic structure of this nation!

 

The Works of the Antichrist!

 

But, do not be alarmed when you see your president bow to them all; for he is not after your approval. He is after their glory!  He is after their support! He is after their admiration; for he champions their causes! He is their man and he is your great enemy, oh America!

 

Yes, America, your president is the antichrist! He came out of Europe! In Europe, he was conceived and through the European Satanic elite, he was born!  But, he is truly a man without a country; and because he is a man without a country, he is loyal to no country!  His eyes are on the prize of world governance; for while he bows today to ingratiate himself to foreign rulers, tomorrow he will require that they all bow to him. 

 

The Fulfillment of Our Saviour's words!

 

Yes, Barack Obama is a man with a great plan; but remember: I wrote the plan! I put him over you, oh America; for I am going to use him to break your pride! I am going to use him to break your haughtiness. I am going to use him to break your economy! I am going to use him to fill up your concentration camps! I am going to use him to haul you off as slaves, oh you rebellious house!  I am going to use him to further pollute you, oh Nation of America; for he hates you, oh wicked nation; and I will drive his hate towards you until he sees you in flames from one end of this nation to the other, from north to south and from east to west!

 

The Price of Rebellion

 

You will not repent, oh you wicked nation of America!  You will not heed My calls to repent, or perish!  You will not bow a knee to Me, to the Creator of All Things, but you will bow a knee to him!  And, many of you will take his mark and will worship him, just to have food on your tables.  For, you will not honor Me and My word! You will not repent!  Therefore, you will worship him and you will lose your souls!  For, you have loved evil! You have no regard for what is right! You love a lie!  You love every perverted thing; and you will perish in your wicked ways!

 

The Great Judgements of our God against Louisiana and this nation!

 

Get ready, people of Louisiana! Get ready! Get ready for one of the greatest catastrophes that you will ever see!  I have sent you warnings through the great devastation of Hurricane Katrina! This was My first great warning to you, oh people of Louisiana: my warning to repent, or perish.  Yet, you have made yourselves busy in re-buiding that great decadent city of New Orleans, but you have not repented!

 

Then, I sent you even greater warnings through the Gulf of Mexico oil disaster!  Great is this calamity and great have been your losses through this great calamity! But, still you have not repented!

 

These are My judgments, oh you blind, who lead the blind; but you would not see My handiwork in the midst of these great calamities. You would not see My judgments through these great catastrophes!

 

The Third Great Judgement Against Louisiana,

 and the people of this nation!

 

Now, you do not see again what is happening to you!  For, the great frozen methane lake, which is beneath the Gulf of Mexico, is quickly melting!  The heat of the seeping oil, which is pouring into the frozen lake, is melting this great lake of frozen methane!

 

Yes, you watch in amazement as these methane bubbles come to the surface and some of you are surprised at the shifting of your homes. But, hear Me! For, you have seen nothing yet! This gas is finding its own exits! 

 

A great volume of methane gas is pushing upwards and is seeking to find its own vents!  As more of this gas pushes its way to the surface, there will come a shifting in the subterranean land masses. There shall come a subsequent shifting in the lands, both beneath the Gulf of Mexico, and even for some distance from the Gulf of Mexico!

 

Some of these land displacements will be great with ensuing earthquakes.  But, the earthquakes will not compare to the unexpected explosions, and in many areas, unparalleled deaths of humans, animals and aquatic life and yes, even birds and other life forms!

 

Oh, you people of Louisiana, you would not listen!  I have sent you two very great calamities and now comes a third. So great shall be your suffering! The stench, the stink of the dying shall be so great!  And, many will say, "Who is going to Louisiana?"  For, the explosions and the dying shall be so great among you!

 

And, when you see these terrible things hit Louisiana, know that this is My third, great judgment against this wicked state. It is a haughty state! It is full of idol worship and witchcrafts; and those in the churches will not obey Me. They will not walk in humility before Me. For, their song is, "How great I am!"

 

But, I tell you, oh state of Louisiana, you are a cancer!  You are a grievous sore in My face!  You are a great blot upon the face of the whole earth; and I will erase you! 

 

I will continue in My judgments against you; and I will continue to plead with you to repent through My great judgements, until I erase your very existence! For, you are rotten, oh state of Louisiana! You are rotten to the core and I will no longer allow this evil before My face!

 

I tell you now; and hear Me well! The great methane bubble, which lies beneath the Gulf of Mexico, is beginning to rupture!  As this great bubble ruptures, it will push out! It will begin to push out with great force!  It will erupt beneath the ocean!  It will erupt all along the Gulf Coast! 

 

The great rupture of this methane gas will hit Florida! It will hit Texas!  It will hit inland and move up beneath the Mississippi River! It will go south towards Cuba. It will go towards Mexico!  It will spew forth, sometimes with small eruptions, but at other times, the eruptions of these gases will be so great that they will easily sink ships! And, there will come a time when travel in the Gulf of Mexico will be extremely hazardous!

 

Most often, the presence of these terrible gases will go undetected, but the effects of these gases will be deadly!  Whole areas will come under attack, and there will be many "unexplained" deaths and sicknesses!  This great gas explosion will be seen as the "silent killer."

 

The time is at hand, oh America!  You have come to the time of your great judgements; and this bowl is now full and overflowing!

 

I am your Father, Yahweh, yea Jehovah, Most High God.

 

As witnessed, dictated and recorded this 30th day of June, 2012,   Linda Newkirk 

 

( I can not tell you if the following is true or not. The troop number seems to be very high, the rumour circulating has been 90.000 troops, but certainly an erroneous troop figure is not reason enough to discard what may actually be the truth about the Alaskan giveaway.)

 

July 31, 2012

Hi Steve,

I read the article about Odumbo supposedly giving away 7 Alaskan islands to the Russians back in February. A high up inside source says the leak for those 7 islands are payment for the 350,000 Russian troops here that will disarm and kill Americans when the collapse comes! It includes their training, wages, guns, ammo, tanks, assault weapons and housing in underground bunkers. So in reality Odumbo, gave away our land as payment to kill most of us, while all our troops are overseas and wouldn't dare attack the American people! Back in February the deal was made just like the article says about the giving away of the 7 islands. So they say no money in the article was given because there wasn't no US dollars paid! Instead they made a deal for the slaughter of our blood and lives for the rich oil based islands, and will let their Russian troops do the dirty work! Besides, how could they afford to pay the Russian troops you ask to attack the American people? They can't! We are already 16 trillion in debt. In reality it is over 200 trillion! They don't want our soon to be useless dollars anyways. So payment was made with the oil rich 7 islands for the Russian troops. It all fits the puzzle and the mystery behind what the payoff was. You may post or do what you want with this information. Pass this along to everyone you know……..

Keep up your great Watchman work and God bless,
