my comment@Liberty and The 10th Amendment

(comment below)
 
April 20, 2009 - 04:02 PM

I'm glad that others are beginning to seriously discuss the 10th Amendment.  When I was chair of the National Governors Association, it was something I spoke of often as well as during the Presidential campaign.  While we need to be diligent in speaking out against the overreaching of the federal government, to seriously talk of secession is a very different matter. 

Actual advocacy of secession from the union is advocating something that has substantial legal consequences.  Such talk is surely overheated political hyperbole and not serious policy discussion.   To seriously advance such a view is to take a step toward treason.  While our founding fathers did in fact start a revolution and were guilty of treason, albeit justified, against the British government, they thoughtfully engaged in a process that they believed were necessary to preserve their liberty.   While I strongly disagree with many policies of our government, I love my country still and believe that elections still are a more appropriate manner to bring change than to attempt to overthrow our government by force, which is a dangerous suggestion and one not fitting for any elected official, even if in the context of exaggerated political bravado.

 
 
...We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. [b]That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter [/b]or to abolish it, and to institute new government, [b]laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.[/b] Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly [b]all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.[/b]...

Presently, there are at least twenty five States that have the proposed Legislation before them to Affirm the Tenth Amendment as the Law of the Land.  The State of Arizona Legislative House has Passed the same Affirmation as Texas has.  In asking of some Michigan State Legislatures, every one I talked to will vote for it.  What has already shown up is the fear that comes with the same fear we find in the upcoming legislation to demand any rifle with a clip having to be registered and subject to monitoring with a five year penalty of Law.  The tin foil hats are right about the One World Currency as the SDR is about to issue 250 Billion.  The tin foil hats are also warning of Desserts that have been fitted camps capable of housing millions.  The U.S. Army Brigade is placed on homeland soil under the definition of a Contingency Plan.  Obama has made foreign campaigns to be under the same umbrella, contingency to man made disasters.  Out further on the end point of the Foil hat is the witness of Blue Helmets doing exercises.  Does this sound like an extreme view of the information out there?
 
Besides, We have another path to follow.  One Law made simply calling intentional deceit as a crime would solve much. 
 
Law, what is it if you dismiss one part in common thought, what does that do with the rest of the Law?.  The Founders fixed that by providing for the Article Six of the Constitution, that amendments may be presented by either the Congress or the States by a 35 co-sponsor to a convention.  Yet, the Law today is suffice to end the Tyranny we are experiencing in this blind stupor brought on by the Dance provided by the Congress, pretending to play one against the other, while al the time despotizing the powers enumerated.
 
It is a wise Body who decides to meet up when they are all having trouble with the Administration Board, who has decided they know best and has ran over the Laws of the Board of the whole body of States in this particular point in time.
 
Jesus said, "The Truth will set you free".  What he also said without saying it is that lying will bind you into despair.
 
Our Nation is being bankrupt right before our eyes.  They are now saying that there is not any capital in the 5 largest banks.  Once that is verified, the violators of the freedom of information act, the Federal Reserve will have to show us the books.  One wonders what they have done.  Either way, the next two years will produce an budget that will be impossible to feed without more borrowing, if we are not bankrupt now.
 
Simply put, what Governor Perry has done is become the One who took his job seriously and became the Next Sam Houston.  One can find fault in another, no one has perfection.  What makes the difference is when one hears the clarion call and acts, that makes for Providence. 
 
The Federal Government should be shaking in their boots, for the people are stepping up of all, young and old, Pastors to Doctorates, with the disenfranchised hearing that there just might be a reason to vote after all.  The opening salvo of the People came when a Patriot in the moment stood up on the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade, home of the President and declared that enough was enough.  We don't need to do this!  Someone should give that man a job so he can get out of the pit and be a warrior.  Our Second Revolution is not by Blood, but by Spirit.  We don't have time to wait for two years.  We  need to put these congressman under the fire and get their voting done by the line in the Sand stating that if anyone is found to have violated the Constitution of the United States after said date, they shall be prosecuted by the full extent of the Law.!!!
 
Alexander Hamilton was one who pushed for a Nationalist Federal Government, but he also knew a fact as we do of the Bible.  If you can take one part out of it and call it not real, what makes the rest of it worthy of real?  (Thus the Article Six)  Founding Father Hamilton stated of the Good Behavior term as it is to be used in the Supreme Court, in that by the fundamental interpretation of the Law shall a Justice be in good behavior, one rule, one truth and  the Law
 
 
...As to the tenure by which the judges are to hold their places; this chiefly concerns their duration in office; the provisions for their support; the precautions for their responsibility.

According to the plan of the convention, all judges who may be appointed by the United States are to hold their offices during good behavior; which is conformable to the most approved of the State constitutions and among the rest, to that of this State. Its propriety having been drawn into question by the adversaries of that plan, is no light symptom of the rage for objection, which disorders their imaginations and judgments. The standard of good behavior for the continuance in office of the judicial magistracy, is certainly one of the most valuable of the modern improvements in the practice of government. In a monarchy it is an excellent barrier to the despotism of the prince; in a republic it is a no less excellent barrier to the encroachments and oppressions of the representative body. And it is the best expedient which can be devised in any government, to secure a steady, upright, and impartial administration of the laws.

Whoever attentively considers the different departments of power must perceive, that, in a government in which they are separated from each other, the judiciary, from the nature of its functions, will always be the least dangerous to the political rights of the Constitution; because it will be least in a capacity to annoy or injure them. The Executive not only dispenses the honors, but holds the sword of the community. The legislature not only commands the purse, but prescribes the rules by which the duties and rights of every citizen are to be regulated. The judiciary, on the contrary, has no influence over either the sword or the purse; no direction either of the strength or of the wealth of the society; and can take no active resolution whatever. It may truly be said to have neither FORCE nor WILL, but merely judgment; and must ultimately depend upon the aid of the executive arm even for the efficacy of its judgments.

This simple view of the matter suggests several important consequences. It proves incontestably, that the judiciary is beyond comparison the weakest of the three departments of power1; that it can never attack with success either of the other two; and that all possible care is requisite to enable it to defend itself against their attacks. It equally proves, that though individual oppression may now and then proceed from the courts of justice, the general liberty of the people can never be endangered from that quarter; I mean so long as the judiciary remains truly distinct from both the legislature and the Executive. For I agree, that "there is no liberty, if the power of judging be not separated from the legislative and executive powers."2 And it proves, in the last place, that as liberty can have nothing to fear from the judiciary alone, but would have every thing to fear from its union with either of the other departments; that as all the effects of such a union must ensue from a dependence of the former on the latter, notwithstanding a nominal and apparent separation; that as, from the natural feebleness of the judiciary, it is in continual jeopardy of being overpowered, awed, or influenced by its co-ordinate branches; and that as nothing can contribute so much to its firmness and independence as permanency in office, this quality may therefore be justly regarded as an indispensable ingredient in its constitution, and, in a great measure, as the citadel of the public justice and the public security....

The mindset of the Founding Fathers is one of the highest Intellect, for by the Providence of the Document did the Blessings overflow.  So to we face becoming the book that Obama pointed to as he shook hands with, Cortez is it?  His Counter is Sarah Palin.  Who do we Prefer for a oil tycoon.  Speaking of which, Teddy Roosevelt made the Federal Government owners of property in the States, a violation of the Constitution.  Each State is soul proprietors of the Land and the Resources, to include oil, intra-trade, Common Law.  (case law is your enemy, if not second)  Drill here, Drill now South Dakota, Montana. 

 

Now back to the tin foil hat, I heard that oil is not a fossil fuel.  Wow, that might explain how it got a thousand feet underground.  Where does it come from?  God knows.  Oh my, so does a cell.

If everyone knew everything there is to know they would not do half of the things they do, including myself, therefore I have to forgive them, including myself. 

When there is not time to wait for another vote, a Fourth of July Picnic at the Washington Capital, tents and all, would be a great event to behold.  (/12/2009 is serious, much like 9/12-2001)

Love you Governor Huckabee, keep us under the Law.  Do the socialism under the Board of Governors and give us the Fair Tax with Constitutional spending!!!

That reminded me, for the etiquette of not allowing the Congress to challenge Law in Court, that is understandable as is a free sign on an ice cream cart, but if someone takes the cart, I would hope that etiquette kicks in!  At the very Least, when the Federal Government challenges a State who decides that a law is unconstitutional and ignores it by drilling for oil anyway, said State can take it to the Supreme Court, who are by the decree of the affirmation of the tenth Amendment, under the Good Behavior Clause of the Constitution.  If the upcoming violation of the Constitution which does not authorize the Federal Government any say so in the affairs of the States pertaining to the Right of Individual Arms (Mexico would be better off armed)  happens, Every State in the Union may co-sponsor a complaint in a Court of their Choosing.  Our Federal Government is no different then the Security Department, other then they have all the money(that is insane).  Time to get behind what Governor Perry has endorsed, one and all.  What say you Huck?  You are the Vanguard

Don't allow President Obama to remove America's most basic freedoms

Contact Congress today about proposed "hate crimes" legislation - before it's too late!

April 20, 2009

Dear Friend,

America's most basic freedoms of speech, conscience and the free exercise of religion are under attack and the time to act is now. If President Obama succeeds with his priority of passing the Hate Crimes law, H.R. 1913 - the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, it could lead to the criminalization of the Biblical view of homosexuality in sermons and elsewhere. An offended homosexual could accuse a pastor, Sunday School teacher of broadcaster of causing emotional injury simply by expressing the Biblical view that homosexuality is sinful.

H.R. 1913 is one more step in the campaign to legitimize homosexuality in our culture by treating it as a protected class along with race, gender, and religion. The long term goal is to create one more platform from which to eradicate wrong thinking about homosexuality. H.R. 1913 will undoubtedly pave the way to legislation that will make thinking Biblically about homosexuality a "hate crime."

We believe prosecutors and anti-Christian groups will use loop holes in the proposed legislation to muzzle the church from speaking out on Biblical standards of morality which are shared by most Americans. Unnecessary lawsuits will bring a chilling effect to the free speech and religious liberty of our churches and of our members.

Laws already exist in all 50 states to punish violent crime, making this legislation unnecessary, unfair, indefinable, un-American and constitutionally suspect.

Laws in civilized nations have always been designed to punish conduct, not thought. H.R. 1913 is not designed to aid in crime fighting. Punishing wrong beliefs about homosexuality is the sole aim of H.R. 1913 - the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act.

Take Action!

Contact your members of Congress today. Ask him or her to oppose H.R. 1913 - the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, or any other federal "hate crimes" bill that could lay the groundwork for censorship of America's most basic freedoms of speech, conscience and religion.

Please forward this alert to all of your friends and family members.

WORTH SENDING AROUND AGAIN.

 

 


INTERESTING...maybe the country should favor bailing them out to some degree with a LOAN.

Nothing needs to be said... Ford, Chrysler and GM's contributions after 9/11

An interesting commentary...You might find this of interest:

'CNN Headline News did a short news listing regarding Ford and GM's
contributions to the relief and recovery efforts in New York and Washington.

The findings are as follows.....

1. Ford- $10 million to American Red Cross matching employee contributions
of the same number plus 10 Excursions to NY Fire Dept. The company also
offered ER response ! team services and office space to displaced government employees.

2. GM- $10 million to American Red Cross matching employee contributions
of the same number and a fleet of Vans, SUV's, and Trucks.

3. Daimler Chrysler-$10 million to support of the children and victims
of the Sept. 11 attack.

 4. Harley Davidson motorcycles- $1 million and 30 new
motorcycles to the New York Police Dept.

5. Volkswagen-Employees and management created a Sept 11 Foundation,
funded initial with $2 million, for the assistance of the children and victims of the WTC.

6. Hyundai- $300,000 to the American Red Cross.

7. Audi- see V W

8. BMW - Nothing.

9. Daewoo - Nothing.

10. Fiat - Nothing.

11. Honda - Nothing despite boasting of second best sales month ever in August 2001

12. Isuzu - Nothing.

13. Mitsubishi - Nothing.

14. Nissan - Nothing.

15. Porsche - Nothing. Press release with condolences via the Porsche website.

16. Subaru - Nothing.

17. Suzuki - Nothing.

18. Toyota - Nothing despite claims of high sales in July and August 2001.
Condolences posted on the website .

Whenever the time may be for you to purchase or lease a new vehicle,
keep this information in mind. You might want to give more consideration
to a car manufactured by an American-owned and / or American based
company. Apart from Hyundai and Volkswagen, the foreign car companies
contributed nothing at all to the citizens of the United States ... It's OK
for these companies to take money out of this country, but it is apparently
not acceptable to return some in a time of crisis. I believe we should not
forget things like this. Say thank you in a way that gets their attention..

Leaked Bank Stress Tests= hold on to your old shoes folks, you may need them

LEAKED! Bank Stress Test Results !

The Turner Radio Network has obtained "stress test" results for the top 19 Banks in the USA. (Corrections/clarifications below in orange)

The stress tests were conducted to determine how well, if at all, the top 19 banks in the USA could withstand further or future economic hardship.

When the tests were completed, regulators within the Treasury and inside the Federal Reserve began bickering with each other as to whether or not the test results should be made public. That bickering continues to this very day as evidenced by this "main stream media" report.

The Turner Radio Network has obtained the stress test results. They are very bad. The most salient points from the stress tests appear below.

1) Of the top nineteen (19) banks in the nation, sixteen (16) are already technically insolvent. (Based upon the "alternative more adverse" scenario which had a 3.3 percent contraction of the U.S. Economy in 2009, accompanied by 8.9 percent unemployment, followed by 0.5 percent growth of the U.S. Economy but a 10.3 percent jobless in 2010.)

2) Of the 16 banks that are already technically insolvent, not even one can withstand any disruption of cash flow at all or any further deterioration in non-paying loans. (Without further government injections of cash)

3) If any two of the 16 insolvent banks go under, they will totally wipe out all remaining FDIC insurance funding.

4) Of the top 19 banks in the nation, the top five (5) largest banks are under capitalized so dangerously, there is serious doubt about their ability to continue as ongoing businesses.

5) Five large U.S. banks have credit exposure related to their derivatives trading that exceeds their capital, with four in particular - JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, HSBC Bank America and Citibank - taking especially large risks.

6) Bank of America`s total credit exposure to derivatives was 179 percent of its risk-based capital; Citibank`s was 278 percent; JPMorgan Chase`s, 382 percent; and HSBC America`s, 550 percent. It gets even worse: Goldman Sachs began reporting as a commercial bank, revealing an alarming total credit exposure of 1,056 percent, or more than ten times its capital! (HSBC is NOT in the top 19 banks undergoing a stress test, but is mentioned in the report as an aside because of its risk capital exposure to derivatives)

7) Not only are there serious questions about whether or not JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs,Citibank, Wells Fargo, Sun Trust Bank, HSBC Bank USA, can continue in business, more than 1,800 regional and smaller institutions are at risk of failure despite government bailouts!
