Texas Official: Obama Plotting with Terrorists

AUSTIN (AP) - State Board of Education member Cynthia Dunbar isn't backing down from her claim that Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is plotting with terrorists to attack the U.S.
The Texas Freedom Network, a watchdog group that monitors the board, released a public statement Monday asking Dunbar to retract the statement.
"I don't have anything in there that would be retractable," said Dunbar, R-Richmond. "Those are my personal opinions and I don't think the language is questionable."
In a column posted on the Christian Worldview Network Web site, Dunbar wrote that a terrorist attack on America during the first six months of an Obama administration "will be a planned effort by those with whom Obama truly sympathizes to take down the America that is threat to tyranny."
She also suggests Obama would seek to expand his power by declaring martial law throughout the country.
"No matter who you support for president, we should all be able to agree that Ms. Dunbar's disgusting attack is a shocking example of the extremism that has infected the state board," TFN President Kathy Miller said.
"It's stunning that a board member who helps decide what Texas children learn in their public schools would say something so disgusting and reprehensible. She should be taking refresher courses in civics and good citizenship, not deciding what Texas kids learn."
The State Board of Education will begin revising public school social studies curriculum standards after adopting standards for science next year. Those standards will determine the content in new public school textbooks.
"Right now, we're still in America and we still have freedom of speech," Dunbar said. "And unless that's changed, I'm not aware of it."

It is true, she is free to be as stupid as she pleases
As long as her cons uents agree with her stances, she is free to hold those beliefs.
If they dont, she gets voted out. Simple.
sounds very wild cobraesque
Who are her cons uents? Anyone know? I mean what part of Texas, and when does her election come?
Not altogether suprising, considering it's already been established that 23% of Texans are abysmally ignorant.
I have family that lives up there, so I may need to change my address.
She's a truther for an attack that hasn't happened yet. There's a WHOLE BUNCH of people who believe Bush did this, after all.
Anyone surprised to hear idiocy like this from those who run education in Texas?![]()
SBOE districts don't align with congressional districts. There are 32 congressional districts but only 15 SBOE districts.
Whoever her cons uents are need to vote her ass out of office.
Don't think that her words won't come back to haunt her, if not in this election, then in the next one.
The Bachmann Effect.

Can we truly even imagine an America under an Obama Administration? I sincerely believe that an Obama Administration would ultimately mean one thing…the end of America as we know her. First, I cannot understand how we can potentially elect a man who most likely has violated the Cons ution in his very attempt to serve as Commander and Chief. “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Cons ution, shall be eligible to the Office of President;” U.S. Cons ution, Article II, Section I
If Obama were a natural born citizen who never lost his citizenship through his adoption while living in Indonesia, then why does he obstinately refuse to present valid do entation? The fact that a Federal Court Judge did nothing should not surprise any of us. After all, we know all too well the attack this great Country undergoes on a daily basis from our own militant leftist Judicial Branch. Can you imagine how much worse this will get with Obama appointees?
There is one glimmer of hope in all of this. There is a difference between a voidable contract and one that is simply void. A voidable contract is able to be ratified whereas a void contract is void at its inception and cannot be cured at any point. If in fact Obama is not cons utionally eligible to be President, this is not something he can ever cure. His election, his swearing in and oath of office, his service of 3 days, 3 months, 3 years does not ever truly convey to him the authority of President of the United States. It is void at its inception and, as such, is open to a valid legal attack at any time.
So we can imagine the blatant disregard for our Cons ution, but what other threats does an Obama administration pose? We have been clearly warned by his running mate, Joe Biden, that America will suffer some form of attack within the first 6 months of Obama’s administration. However, unlike Joe, I do not believe this “attack” will be a test of Obama’s mettle. Rather, I perceive it will be a planned effort by those with whom Obama truly sympathizes to take down the America that is threat to tyranny. What nobody seems to be discussing is the fact that if such an attack takes place, what about Martial Law? What happens to expand executive power when a state of civil disorder is declared?
Supreme Court Justice Holmes in the unanimous decision of Moyer v. Peabody, stated the following:
“…[I]t is familiar that what is due process of law depends on cir stances. It varies with the subject matter and the necessities of the situation.... In such a situation we must assume that he had a right under the … cons ution and laws to call out troops.... That means that he shall make the ordinary use of the soldiers to that end; that he may kill persons who resist and, of course, that he may use the milder measure of seizing the bodies of those whom he considers to stand in the way of restoring peace. Such arrests are not necessarily for punishment, but are by way of precaution to prevent the exercise of hostile power. So long as such arrests are made in good faith and in the honest belief that they are needed in order to head the insurrection off, the [Executive] is the final judge and cannot be subjected to an action after he is out of office on the ground for his belief. . . When it comes to a decision by the head of the State upon a matter involving its life, the ordinary rights of individuals must yield to what he deems the necessities of the moment. Public danger warrants the subs ution of executive process for judicial process.”
Granted, this is not the same position that was taken by the Court in ex parte Milligan (71 US 2 [1866]). That Court resoundingly said, "Martial law ... destroys every guarantee of the Cons ution." Reminding Americans of similar actions that had been taken by the King of Great Britain, which in turn were part of the basis for the Revolution, the courts stated, "Civil liberty and this kind of martial law cannot endure together; the antagonism is irreconcilable; and, in the conflict, one or the other must perish."
Factually, such militaristic rule is to be established by the Legislative Branch. “The Congress shall have Power To … provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;” U.S. Cons ution Article 1, Section 8 However, the Cons ution further states that the President, “…shall from time to time give to the Congress Information on the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient;” Article II, Section 3 Should the Senate and the House be under Democratic control and Obama comes to them advising of a threat to our Nation, is there any doubt that Obama will have his way? Additionally, since we’ve clearly seen that Obama appears to have no respect for the Cons ution itself, why should we expect that if elected, all of a sudden he will try to comply with its restraints?
I fear for our great nation and her potential demise should we as Americans elect Sen. Obama. I shall take no joy in saying “I told you so” if Obama gets elected. But just for the record, remember, “I told you so.”

She is not up for election this cycle.
Good. That gives us Democrats some time to find someone to defeat her when she comes up for re-election.
My kinda district and rep!
Damn, my bad. I just went to the site, I should have figured it was a national district.

I love the refrain: we’ve clearly seen that Obama appears to have no respect for the Cons ution itself. I guess she's not convinced of the authenticity of Obama's birth certificate.

Man she gets scarier the more you find out about her.
I have no problem with someone being Christian, but this chick looks like some kind of fundie ideologue bent on a theocracy.
On the State Board of Ed, she very probably has input to contents of public school textbooks and curricula.
IIRC, national textbook publishers skew their textbooks for the national market so they will be acceptable to TX's flaming assholes like Dunbar.
it makes for a great movie. Maybe a 24 sequel
