Excerpted from BIG GOVERNMENT: Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was “closed” due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean. Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown.
The Park Service will also have rangers on duty to police the ban… of access to an ocean. The government will probably use more personnel and spend more resources to attempt to close the ocean, than it would in its normal course of business.
This is governing by temper-tantrum. It is on par with the government’s ham-fisted attempts to close the DC WWII Memorial, an open-air public monument that is normally accessible 24 hours a day. By accessible I mean, you walk up to it. When you have finished reflecting, you then walk away from it.
At least that Memorial is an actual structure, with some kind of perimeter that can be fenced off. Florida Bay is the ocean. How, pray tell, do you “close” 1,100 square miles of ocean? Why would one even need to do so?
Apparently, according to an anonymous Park Service ranger, “We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. It’s disgusting.”
Centuries ago, King Canute famously failed to command the ocean tide to stop. His display was actually a means to educate his subjects on the limits of royal power. Today, however, our President actually believes he has the power to control the oceans.

In 2008 when TV was switched to digital the once outlawed subliminal messages became rampant. There is no telling what has been fed into the subconscious of the Amerikan people. A poll was taken to see who the Amerikan people trusted and what came out was that 7 of the top trusted people were movie stars and what was even more horrifying was that number 7 was Bill Gates a known murderer of the children of the world.
Yep. Turn off the MSM and the trance will be broken.
Byron,
You are no doubt exactly right.
I sometimes wonder if the Cabal is not testing us to see how many people are waking up and how many can be measured with the sheeple meter, that way they can calculate their next move. We still need to shut down the controlled media.
His agenda is showing, Keith. The entire economy collapse is making it as painful as possible. It shows his contempt for Americans. It shows he is not American. It shows there is an enemy in the WH.
Byron,
He can get some mental evaluation during incarceration. All the more reason to get him to some help as soon as possible.
And why do people keep calling O the president?
This is certainly not presidential behavior.
More like an involuntary commitment. It costs more to try to close it than to leave it open. No, Obama is waging war with the American people.
O thinks he is a God, it is time for a mental evaluation.
