WND's Farah Just Can't Stop Lying About 'Civilian National Security Force'
Topic: WorldNetDaily

WorldNetDaily editor Joseph Farah is a congenital liar, and one of the things he and WND have lied about is President Obama's statement about a "civilian national security force." Farah does so again in his Feb. 3 WND column:

Is the U.S. government getting ready for a war we don’t know about?

And, if that’s why Washington is stockpiling massive amounts of ammunition (hollow points, by the way), why is Homeland Security doing the buying instead of the Defense Department?

I have some theories.

Many of you will remember a story I broke a long time ago – about presidential candidate Barack Obama’s little-noticed announcement that, if elected in 2008, he wanted to create a “civilian national security force” as big, as strong and as well-funded as the Defense Department.

Here’s what he actually said at a campaign stop in Colorado July 2, 2008: “We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”

Could what we see happening now in the Department of Homeland Security be the beginning of Obama’s dream and our constitutional nightmare?

[...]

These words – “civilian national security force” – have haunted me ever since I first read them.

Obama has never explained what he meant.

He’s never been called to account for that remark.

Doesn’t this sound like police-state talk to you?

As we've repeatedly documented, Obama has explained what he meant by a "civilian national security force" -- expansion of the foreign service.

Farah has been telling this lie for more than four years. Either he's too stupid to do any basic research to find out the truth, or he's such a craven liar that he'lll continue to push the falsehood because it's good for his bottom line.
