The Death of the Republic Revisited – Part III

____________________________________

In The Death of the Republic Revisited, I covered the constitutional loopholes that gave Congress the power to decide the powers of the Supreme Court and the federal court system, and how this lead to the most abusive – and untouchable – of the three branches of our government. In The Death of the Republic Revisited – Part II, I covered the constitutional loopholes that have allowed Congress several means of escaping any real checks by the Judicial Branch or the Executive Branch. Now, I turn my attention to the constitutional loopholes that have allowed the Executive Branch to be become dictatorial.

Aiding the Congress’ ability to make the Judiciary untouchable is the President’s sole power to appoint Supreme Court justices for life. The only check on this ability lies with the Senate, which has the right of review of any appointees. As we’ve seen in recent years, however, collusion between the Senate and the President render this so-called “check” a joke. Again, as I said in my previous articles, the federal government’s three branches work in concert as a single symbiotic entity. In other words, there are no real “checks and balances” at all. If the President and the Senate have a vested interest in a particular appointee to the court, there is no means for the House of Representatives, the states, or the people to stop the appointment and, once made, there is no power in any of the branches – not even the Executive – to remove a justice except by impeachment for criminal offenses. This has rarely happened in the 223 years since the Constitution created the three branches.

As mentioned in Part II, the Congress is empowered to use treaties to make U.S. citizens subject to foreign laws. The President, also, possesses this power, in concert with Congress, and one of the worst recent offenders was President Bill Clinton, who used his treaty-signing powers frequently to cede U.S. sovereignty to the United Nations, the World Bank, the IMF and the World Court. This has been continued by Presidents Bush and Obama.

But, the main loophole in the Constitution – which was deliberately placed there by the Federalists, many of whom desired to make the President a monarch – that gives the President unchecked dictatorial powers is his sole ability to create Executive Orders and “signing statements.”

The power of the President to make Executive Orders is exclusively limited to the Executive Branch, as the term implies. Neither the Judiciary nor the Legislative branches are empowered to rescind or repeal an Executive Order. Effectively, the President may create new law in this manner, in direct violation of the Legislative Branch’s supposed monopoly on law-creation. Once signed by the President, an Executive Order has the full force of law without any approval by Congress.

Furthermore, the President may use his Executive Order power to not only create new law, but to effectively negate existing laws that have been created by Congress. In fact – and this is the most dangerous aspect of Executive Orders – the President may override the Constitution, itself, the very document that gives him these powers, this is all by the Federalists’ design!

The power of the Executive Order can be used for good or ill, depending upon the particular motives and whims of a sitting President. An example of the “good” would be President John F. Kennedy’s Executive Order 11110, which would have effectively abolished the Federal Reserve, thus ending the international banking cartel’s stranglehold upon our government.

The trouble has been that very few Executive Orders have been of the “good” variety and most – especially those created by recent Presidents – have been thoroughly tyrannical. A few cases in point are:

Executive Order 12148: Created FEMA

Executive Order 10990: Allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.

Executive Order 10995: Allows the government to seize and control the communication media.

Executive Order 10997: Allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.

Executive Order 10998: Allows the government to take over all food resources and farms

Executive Order 11000: Allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision

Executive Order 11011: Allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions

Executive Order 11002: Designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons

Executive Order 11003: Allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft

Executive Order 11004: Allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.

Executive Order 11005: Allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities

Executive Order 11051: Specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.

Executive Order 11310: Grants authority to the Department of Justice and enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.

Executive Order 11049: Assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period. allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanism of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in US financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation.

This is only a partial listing of some of the Executive Orders that directly affect the freedoms and liberties of all citizens and which, effectively, make the President a dictator.

FDA pours salt in the Constitution’s wounds

D o w n s i z e r – D i s p a t c h

downsizer-dispatch@downsizedc.orgIt’s bad enough when Congress exercises unconstitutional powers. It’s even worse when unelected bureaucrats do it. The FDA has decided, all on its own, that it has the power to reduce the amount of salt in your diet.

FDA: Failure to produce parity prices voids their authority; and so do unlawful acts of legislative and agency fraud

Although the administrative agencies may seek to derive authority through the Emergencies Powers Act vis- a -vis:  Wickard v. Filburn their failure to procure parity prices voids their authority.

“What is being attempted here is the creation of a fiction of law which the FDA will attempt to enforce under the color of law, all the while knowing they have neither legal nor statutory authority to do so.  The assumption is of course, the public is totally unaware that this is an unlawful action and will simply comply out of ignorance of their rights.”

This is the opening volley by the government whose intent it is to totally bypass S.510 and HR 2749 and implement what these attorney’s listed below must know to be a legal fraud on the American public. The stage show that has been ongoing regarding the passage of these two fake food safety bills and numerous others has been conducted to divert attention away from the actual project being finalized under the Obama “Food Safety Working Group”.  This group is in no way concerned with food safety, but rather with attempting to create a crisis where none exists then to exploit it for corporate profiteers.

FDA Authority to Regulate On-Farm Activity

Vanessa K. Burrows

Legislative Attorney

American Law Division

Summary

http://www.producesafetyproject.org/admin/assets/files/0022.pdf

Summary Recent concerns regarding fresh produce contaminated with E. coli or Salmonella have brought attention to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s regulatory authority. Some advocates have requested new FDA food safety regulations, including rules that would regulate activity on farms. One question is whether the FDA has the authority to regulate on-farm activities. H.R. 1108 and S. 625, which would authorize the FDA to regulate tobacco products, would limit the FDA’s authority to regulate activities on certain tobacco farms. However, it appears that the FDA has the authority to regulate at least some on-farm activities related to other food products under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and the Public Health Services Act.  In 2004, the FDA issued a proposed rule governing safety procedures for shell eggs, which would be its first comprehensive on-farm regulation. Legislative proposals, including H.R. 912, H.R. 3624, H.R. 5620, H.R. 5904, H.R. 6581, S. 2077, and S. 3385, also address the FDA’s role on farms._____________________________________

What was omitted from the above summary, was that the FDA did not at any time ever possess the Constitutional authority to interfere with or to regulate private agricultural commerce and trade, and does not, even now, possess such authority.  Furthermore, any enabling statute must conform to Constitutional authority and provisions to be valid. 

The FDA, and the O’Neil Institute for National and Global Health Law, along with numerous other titled and compensated professionals, working group partners and special interests, assembled by the Obama administration assumed there were none to few of us out here, aware of this lack of lawful authority; we are aware. 

The Death of the Republic Revisited – Part II

___________________________________

In my previous article, The Death of the Republic Revisited, I addressed the loopholes deliberately placed in the Constitution to enable Congress to give the Supreme Court and the federal court system whatever powers it chose to, and how it took full advantage of this to create a third branch of the federal government – the Judiciary – that can do whatever it pleases without any interference from the states or the people and with very few controls by the President or the Congress that created its powers.

In this installment, I will point out the Constitution’s loopholes that leave Congress unrestrained, thus putting the lie to the concept of “checks and balances.”

In addition to Congress’ powers to define the limits of the Supreme Court and federal courts, Congress is empowered to also create tribunals without juries. For examples of this, think of tax court, OSHA hearings, hearings of the EPA and other federal agencies. Similarly, the states, which have all modeled their constitutions after the Federalists’ Constitution, have done the same and one of the best examples of this are the “family courts” in each state, which, without a jury or trial, can remove children from their parents on the flimsiest evidence without any recourse left to the parents.

_________________________________________

In my article, How the American Republic Died at Philadelphia in 1787 I showed, with quotes from the Federalists and Anti-Federalists, alike, how our original constitution, the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union (1781) was illegally scrapped and replaced with a new Constitution (1787), which formed a wholly new government – one which was deliberately designed to grow into the fascistic behemoth we see today. Here, I will go into the various ingenious ways in which the Federalists designed the Constitution to achieve that end, all while making it appear as though our liberties were safeguarded.

First, though, I think it is necessary to point out exactly how and why this subterfuge was illegal, in the first place. The best way of doing so is to simply examine the wording of Article VIII, Section 1 of the Articles of Confederation, which says:

“And the Articles of this Confederation shall be inviolably observed by every state, and the union shall be perpetual; nor shall any alteration at any time hereafter be made in any of them; unless such alteration be agreed to in a Congress of the United States, and be afterwards confirmed by the legislatures of every state.”

Geneva Conventions Redefined – Part 1: The New U.S Department of War

By Lt. Eric N. Shine, USNR – USMMRR/ USMMA KP

Most people are unaware of a larger picture developing over the course of the past seven or eight decades, or somehow they are willingly choosing to ignore it. This still-developing image portrays matters requiring a greater knowledge of world history, a higher degree of self-education and a more global perspective to recognize and decipher.

Probably the most remarkable change occurring and still underway is a complete militarization of everything in the United States, if not around the world. The most disturbing sign of this breach of civilian commons today by the military, comes in the form of or the creation, or should I say recreation, as it had once been known up and until 1946, of a new or at least reinvigorated Department of War, which is no longer a “Department of Defense,” to ward off foreign invasion.

DOWNSIZER DISPATCH downsizer-dispatch@downsizedc.org

Quote of the Day: “Courage is grace under pressure.” — Ernest Hemingway

* The C.I.A.’s 1953 overthrow of the democratic government of Iran that led to all the problems we have with that country today 
* The Gulf of Tonkin fraud that Lyndon Johnson used to entrench America in Vietnam 
* Support for groups in Afghanistan who went on to become the Taliban and Al Qaeda”

Well, we as a nation weren’t very graceful after 9-11. Our reaction led us to . . .

* Trash our Constitution and our Bill of Rights
* A bungled invasion of Afghanistan
* And a completely unnecessary war and occupation in Iraq

Sadly, this kind of thing has happened many times before. For instance . . .

Way back in 1898 the Battleship Maine exploded in Havana Harbor. Decades later the Navy determined that the explosion had been an accident, but . . . 

The hysterical way Americans reacted at the time led to a pointless war with Spain, followed by an evil war of colonial conquest in the Philippines.

In other words . . .

Hysteria led to an overreaction that resulted in a disaster, just like after 9-11.

Something similar happened during World War I. Our politicians loudly claimed neutrality, but they were not neutral. Instead . . .

National ID: Who Will Resist?

National ID: Who Will Resist?

by Timothy Baldwin, Esq.

“By resisting, I mean the state representatives passing laws, the governor entering orders and the courts rendering judgments, preventing the federal government from attempting to tax their people for that federal power and from implementing their procedures upon the people of that state. I mean actually and physically resisting the federal government from occupying the state’s territory to execute those unlawful actions.”

U.S. Senators Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) and Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) introduced a bill which would require all persons in the United States

(“U.S.”) seeking to be employed to obtain a government-issued biometric National Identification card.(FN1) Not so surprisingly, this measure has come in the name of “protecting America” against illegal immigrants working in the U.S. unlawfully. Thus, “[t]o ensure that only people legally in the U.S. can work here, the bill will propose a biometric I.D. for EVERY AMERICAN before anybody can get a job.” (FN2) This is yet another method by which the federal government continually institutes practices and principles contrary to what a Free Confederated Republic should be and contrary to principles of limited government, self-government, natural rights, and true constitutional intent and meaning. Judge Andrew Napolitano rightfully calls this legislation a “monstrosity” and predicts that this bill will not pass. (FN3) Perhaps Judge Napolitano is correct, but we should consider what the people of the U.S. once rejected but now embrace.

Landmark Legal Foundation to File Suit to Stop President’s Health Plan if ‘Slaughter Rule’ is Used

(LEESBURG, VA, MARCH 17, 2010)…Mark R. Levin, president of Landmark Legal Foundation, today issued a warning to the leadership of the U.S. House of Representatives about the possible use of the so-called “deem and pass,” “self-executing,” or “Slaughter Rule” to enact H.R. 3590, the legislative version of President Obama’s healthcare proposal that has been previously approved by the Senate. If this tactic is employed, Landmark will immediately sue the President, Attorney General Eric Holder and other relevant cabinet members to prevent them from instituting this unconstitutional contrivance.

CONGRESS MIGHT PASS THE HEALTH BILL WITHOUT VOTING ON IT: A STEP CLOSER TO TYRANNY

Live Link:  Liberty News Online

John Wallace john@teapartyrep.com

There was a time when I wouldn’t believe that members of congress would be so out of touch with the American people that they would have to resort to underhanded tactics to thwart the will of the people.

Well, Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, is thinking of doing just that. Representative Louise Slaughter (D-NY) came up with what is now known as the “Slaughter Solution” or “Deem and Pass” that will let the House of Representatives deem the Senate Health Bill as passed in the House without any representative voting on it. Once they use this outrageous procedure, the house leadership can then have additional language inserted into the bill that will satisfy those House Democrats who oppose the bill in its original form.

Meanwhile, in order for Senate Democrats to be able to use the Reconciliation procedure – a procedure that circumvents the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster – the House must pass the Senate Bill ‘as is’, with the exact same wording, before changes can be made.

What is Communitarian Law?

live link: AxXiom for Liberty

March 16, 2010

Communitarian Law is the new legal system used by regional and local governments affiliated with the emerging global government. This new law circumvents national law via a program of “balancing,” often implemented by a small group of self-appointed elites who achieve consensus (not voting). For Americans, the adoption of these evolving principles transports us from a constitutional system where we expect clearly defined basic rights (like due process and legal searches) to a more moral way of enforcing “social justice” that only a few upper level academics can define.

Communitarian law is the precedent that requires the courts to rule in favor of the self-defined “community” against individuals protected by constitutional law. It limits the property rights of individuals in all member nations. The most obvious current communitarian decision handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court is Kelo v. The City of New London, a land rights case that balanced property rights against comunitarian development goals. The least obvious communitarian decision handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court is Hiibel v. The State of Nevada, a privacy rights case that balanced private individual’s right to annonymity. In all U.S. communitarian legislation and criminal code, the stated purpose is to balance individual rights against community responsibilities. It’s called Reinventing Government. Based on the consensus reached by globalist do-gooders, all nations are now required to adjust their national systems. The world is in an ongoing process of internal re-inventions of national political and legal infrastructures.

The Dick Act of 1902 can’t be repealed…gun control forbidden

The National Expositor

American News – The Dick Act of 1902 also known as the Efficiency of Militia Bill H.R. 11654, of June 28, 1902 invalidates all so-called gun-control laws. It also divides the militia into three distinct and separate entities.

The three classes H.R. 11654 provides for are the organized militia, henceforth known as the National Guard of the State, Territory and District of Columbia, the unorganized militia and the regular army. The militia encompasses every able-bodied male between the ages of 18 and 45. All members of the unorganized militia have the absolute personal right and 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms of any type, and as many as they can afford to buy.

The Dick Act of 1902 cannot be repealed; to do so would violate bills of attainder and ex post facto laws which would be yet another gross violation of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The President of the United States has zero authority without violating the Constitution to call the National Guard to serve outside of their State borders.

The National Guard Militia can only be required by the National Government for limited purposes specified in the Constitution (to uphold the laws of the Union; to suppress insurrection and repel invasion). These are the only purposes for which the General Government can call upon the National Guard.

The American public: Supporting unconstitutional actions?

Quotes to remember:

Excerpted from Anthony Gregory / Independence and Liberty

“Constitutions alone cannot limit government,” writes Anthony Gregory. “The overwhelming bulk of what the federal government is engaged in, from imperial wars to drug prohibition, from Social Security to Medicare, is unauthorized by the Constitution, and yet they persist. What matters ultimately is the Constitution in the hearts and minds of the people. So long as the American public supports unconstitutional actions, such actions will commence. Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, as Jefferson noted. The Constitution spells out great limits on the government, but without the support of the people, the document loses its teeth.”

In the beginning we were British. Washington and our other founders liked a lot of British things, but they didn’t trust the autocracy. For this reason they began a search for something better. They tried a polyglot system called the Articles of Confederation. When that failed, they tried our current Federal Government. The denominator, between these two systems, is fear of autocracy. Our founders didn’t want a king or a tyrant.

Move forward 2 1/2 centuries. Mr. Obama has asked the Congress to deliver a Health Care bill for him to sign. The operative points here are:

• The President asked them to do it
• They are doing it
• He will approve whatever it is, when they get it to his desk. This badly violates the Constitution.

Michigan:“Firearms Freedom Act” (HB-5232)

National Expositor

Tenth Amendment Center – Introduced in the Michigan House on August 11, 2009, the “Firearms Freedom Act” (HB-5232) seeks “to make certain findings regarding intrastate commerce; to prohibit federal regulation of firearms, firearms accessories, and ammunition involved purely in intrastate commerce in [the State of Michigan]; to provide for certain exceptions to federal regulation; and to establish certain manufacturing requirements.”

The bill was authored by Rep. Phillip Pavlov and currently has 44 co-sponsors.

While the HB5232’s title focuses on federal gun regulations, it has far more to do with the 10th Amendment’s limit on the power of the federal government.  It specifically states:

The regulation of intrastate commerce is vested in the states under amendments IX and X of the constitution of the United States, particularly if not expressly preempted by federal law. Congress has not expressly preempted state regulation of intrastate commerce pertaining to the manufacture on an intrastate basis of firearms, firearms accessories, and ammunition.

Wyoming Bill Seeks to Combat Federal Distortions of Commerce Clause, 2nd Amendment – Includes Penalties of up to Two Years in Prison for Federal Agents Violating the Law.

Michael Boldin [send him email] is the founder of the Tenth Amendment Center

“When a state ‘nullifies’ a federal law, it is proclaiming that the law in question is void and inoperative, or ‘non-effective,’ within the boundaries of that state; or, in other words, not a law as far as the state is concerned.”

____________________________________________

10th Amendment Center – Wyoming State Representative Allen Jaggi has introduced a “Firearms Freedom Act” (FFA) for the state – it’s filed as House Bill 95 (HB95).

While the FFA’s title focuses on gun regulations, it has far more to do with the federal violations of the commerce clause, which D.C. has used as an excuse to prohibit and regulate everything from wheat, to marijuana to guns.

If passed, the bill would provide “that specified firearms that are manufactured, sold, purchased, possessed and used exclusively within Wyoming shall be exempt from federal regulation, including registration requirements”

Some supporters of the legislation say that a successful application of such a state-law would set a strong precedent and open the door for states to take their own positions on a wide range of other activities that they see as not being authorized to the Federal Government by the Constitution.

Wyoming joins 21 other states considering similar legislation – including New Hampshire, Virginia and Missouri.

As an American, I refuse to buy mandatory health insurance that supports corrupt conventional medicine

NaturalNews – Mike Adams on 05 January, 2010

 Even if Obama’s health care reform bill becomes law, mandating that all Americans buy health insurance policies for a failed system of “sick care”, I will refuse to comply. I’ve read the U.S. Constitution and its Bill of Rights, and nowhere in that document do I find that the federal government has the power to force consumers to purchase for-profit insurance products from private companies.

The very basis of the health care reform bill is, at its core, unconstitutional. If this mandate is allowed to stand, it sets a dangerous precedent for the U.S. government to require us to purchase other products and services from whatever industries it chooses to support. What’s next? Will the government pass a law forcing us to buy pharmaceuticals at thousands of dollars a year? Will it force us to purchase U.S.-made automobiles in order to boost the automobile industry? Is our economic free choice now centrally planned by our own government operating like Communist China?

Rob Taylor’s Senate Campaign picking up Momentum in Wisconsin U.S. Senate Race.

Senate Candidate Rob Taylor brings the Constitution Revolution to Sheboygan.

http://www.RobTaylorForSenate.com

FEB. 6^th, 2010, a cold and blustery Saturday in Sheboygan was the latest stop for Rob Taylor’s Campaign for U.S. Senate.   That morning lake effect snow was falling and the wind was blowing and the chill in the air was about to be thawed because one thousand brave Patriots were about to rally for the Constitution.

The momentum from his speech at the Racine Tea Party followed Rob to Sheboygan as one couple said they clearly remember it.  Rob’s name recognition is now becoming fixture with Tea Party Patriots as many had already had heard of him and wanted to meet Rob in person.    Rob then fielded their questions on topics such as the U.N., the Federal Governments role in education, taxes, and can non-Christians hold office.  He being a true Constitutional Champion answered them decisively and succinctly and in accordance with the founding principles and intent set forth under the Constitution. 

His answer was:

When government fears its own people

By: Marti Oakley (c) 2010 All Rights Reserved

It seems patriot groups are springing up all over the place, each of them hoping to be the catalyst for change and all of them lamenting the loss of freedom and the downward spiral of our sovereign nation into one of a dictatorial police state. 

While the entire country reels from the onslaught of unconstitutional regulations and codes that are contrary to our Constitutional rights and liberties we are none-the-less regularly assaulted both in print and video by those who see these efforts as a threat to what I can only assume is their own perceived benefit from maintaining the status quo.

While I do not agree with all that each of the patriot groups propose or advocate, I do, however, support their right to express their grievances; even if it does irritate the powers that be.  And, the only conclusion I can come to as to why these groups should present such a problem and elicit such a barrage of threatening and flaming commentary is because they are actually citing the problems and fighting back.

Wisconsins Constitution Party candidate, Rob Taylor: A Letter to Glenn Beck

Rob Taylor for Senate  www.robtaylorforsenate.com

Hi Glenn,

I am Rob Taylor, and I am the Constitution Party candidate for the US Senate seat here in Wisconsin.  I have written you many times and I realize that thousands of others do the same.  So I understand why you don’t acknowledge my letters.

I have been promoting the “Bring The Politicians Home” platform now for over the last several months.

This is my ad on my website

Congress:How many of you could honestly say, “We pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor”? None? One? Two?

 

Many of us witnessed the arrogance of Barbara Boxer on June 18, 2009 as she admonished Brigadier General Michael Walsh because he addressed her as “ma’am” and not “Senator” before a Senate hearing.

This letter is from a National Guard aviator and Captain for Alaska Airlines named Jim Hill.  I wonder what he would have said if he were really angry. Long fly Alaska !!!!!

 

From: Jim hill 

Babs:

 

 

You were so right on when you scolded the general on TV for using the term, “ma’am,” instead of “Senator”.  After all, in the military, “ma’am” is a term of respect when addressing a female of superior rank or position.  The general was totally wrong. You are not a person of superior rank or position.. You are a member of one of the world’s most corrupt organizations, the U.S. Senate, equaled only by the U.S. House of Representatives.

Executive Orders: The Hallmarks Of Fascist Tyranny.

Forwarded to PPJ by: James Harvey

Article By: J. Speer-Williams 1-17-10

The Executive Branch of our federal government has become a 500 pound tick that’s being fed by a 50 pound dog (the American people) due to presidential Executive Orders (EOs). EOs – not to be confused with Eos, the supernaturally beautiful goddess of Greek mythology – have become an ugly fact of American life, ever since our terrible conflagration known as the American Civil War.

An Executive Order (EO) is an order made by a president that has the full force and effect of any laws constitutionally passed by congress, and signed by the president. In a representative democracy, laws are made by duly elected representatives, not by a head of state, by mere edict, with no debate, or samplings of public opinion, such as EOs are made into law: The former is known as “rule by law,” the latter as “rule by men.” READ MORE

Tennessee Supreme Court Twice Censures “Psychic” Judge

From Courthouse News Service Man Says Judge Arrested Him ‘On a Hunch’

In May 2009

“A judge in Dickson County, Tenn., had officers pull a spectator out of his courtroom “on a hunch,” held him in custody and made him submit to a urinalysis for drugs, the man claims in Federal Court. Benjamin Marchant claims that General Sessions Judge Durwood Moore admitted that he “routinely drug-screens ‘spectators’ in his courtroom if he ‘thinks’ they may be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.” Moore allegedly called it the “routine policy of the court.”

In January 2010

“Moore acknowledged he had violated Marchant’s rights and was censured by the Tennessee Supreme Court’s Judiciary Court on May 1, 2009, the highest form of punishment short of seeking a judge’s removal from the bench, according to the complaint. The court ordered Moore to “never violate a person’s constitutional rights as he did to the Plaintiff,” the complaint states”

One wonders what is wrong with this Nations Legal System. Violate Constitutional Rights, admit it, be “censured” instead of fired, and say you’ll never do it again….

A constitutional look at the healthcare bill…you’re not going to like this.

  

 

“However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface.  In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable health care choices.  Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated.”

Well, I have done it!  I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009.  I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law.  I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional.  What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected. 

To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying.  The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession. 

The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business, and put everyone into a government run system.  All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats, and most of them will not be health care professionals.  Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled by the government. 

However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface.

The New “Cult” – Amish?

There comes a pivot point in our society. A moment that is frozen in time, cradled in the hands of history when no longer as a society we operate as a unit of common sense. When opponents meet upon a battlefield and decide whom will be the victor. As we look back en-masse the realization that we have gone too far descends upon us : at that moment each individual must look into their very souls and ask “What have we done?”

A moment such as the many that span the written history of the Human race is now unfolding in Wisconsin. The opponents are defined such as David and Goliath. Powerful, strong, large and undefeatable versus the meek and humble, inexperienced in battle. The arrogance and sneering Goliath in this situation is none other than Clark County District Attorney Darwin Zwieg. Our David is Mr. Emanual Miller, an Old Order Amish.

Mr. Zwieg, not content to respect the religious rights, as set forth in the Wisconsin Constitution and cited here:

The Enumerated Powers Act

 This latest dispatch from DownsizeDC should be read by every one.  Understand, congress does not have the authority to pass most of the legislation they then call “laws” and that these so-called “laws” are not enforceable. ___________

D o w n s i z e r – D i s p a t c h

The Enumerated Powers Act (EPA) requires that every bill must specify its source of Constitutional authority. This would prove very embarrassing to Congress, because there is no Constitutional authority for most of what they pass.

Good news!

Two more House members have co-sponored EPA over the past month, bringing the toal to 56. Sadly, the Senate is still stuck at 22 co-sponsors. You can find . . .

* The House co-sponsors here:  * And the Senate co-sponsors here:

Let’s flood Congress with letters demanding that every member co-sponsor the Enumerated Powers Act.

Articles of Freedom: Report on the Continental Congress

By:  John WallaceTo All Freedom Loving Americans,  From the moment I stood in the lobby of the Pheasant Run Hotel and Conference Center in St. Charles Illinois on the morning of November 11, 2009, I knew that this would be an important gathering of American citizens. By the end of the day, more than one hundred and twenty delegates from 48 states had arrived and we began the deliberations of Continental Congress 2009 that would last 11 days. All of the delegates had high hopes that something good would come from this effort; something that would help the America people find their way at this crucial time in our history. No one could have predicted the things that took place over those eleven days and no one who attended would ever be the same. American citizens from 48 of these united States, from all walks of life, had come together in a people’s congress to devise a plan to return America to Constitutional government. Working long into the night, every night, we huddled together in small and large groups, talking about the Constitution, discussing the Constitution, trying to find the way back to constitutional government for this great country. From this historic gathering, a document entitled the ‘Articles of Freedom,’ was prepared for the Free People of America, written by the delegates themselves who made up a cross section of the American people. This document doesn’t pretend to have all the answers, nor do we expect all Americans to agree to each and every part. We do hope, however, that the Articles of Freedom, will serve as a wake-up call for our elected officials and the free people of America. The document represents a strategic plan that can be used by the people to turn America around and restore our Republic.

Controlled opposition: How the private dairy industry is being coached to self destruct

“In my considered opinion: Anyone telling you to sit down and shut up; anyone telling you they are “negotiating” your God-given right to conduct a lawful business: anyone using access to funds as leverage in an effort to control your response to these assaults, should be carefully considered.  You need to be asking yourself; “Who are these people really working for?”

A recent email I received from a gentleman in Wisconsin spoke of having to choose his alliances carefully.  Seems he had been admonished by someone in a group he was part of, to steer clear of other groups who might have the same goals in mind, but a different methodology of getting there.  Those who differed with his groups’ methodology should be avoided at all costs!  My new correspondent was taking this advice into consideration as he also considered the fact the person giving it was holding the purse strings on the account used to pay the lobbyist who supposedly was working on behalf of the group he belongs to. 

During this back and forth I was asked what I thought of selecting only a few individuals to go in front of the December 17^th meeting on the two pending dietary licensing bills in Madison: SB115 AND AB440   as opposed to mobilizing a state wide effort and showing up en masse to confront the DATCP board so intent on stripping away their rights. 

My response was:

The greatest and scariest conspiracy ever!

As the first year of the Obama Administration comes to a close, many questions remain about the mysteries of the so-called “dark side” of the “war on terror”.  No investigation by this administration of the Bush/Cheney administration exists, even though during his campaign the investigation was promised by Obama. Therefore some of the most serious questions to face this nation remain unsolved. Some wonder if some sort of a deal was struck by Bush and Obama in the Oval Office of the White House during the transition. Al Qaeda’s 9/11 terror attacks, after all, were on the Bush/Cheney watch the day everything changed, and began the trillion dollar war on terror.

Whereas, Patrick Henry said:

“The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government.”  James Madison wrote: “It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man who knows what the law is today can guess what it will be tomorrow.  For far too many decades, government, at all levels, operating almost virtually unrestrained by the constitution and lobbied by socialists, radical environmentalists, corporations, bankers, unions and foreigners, has far exceeded its constitutional authority and has continuously assaulted or taken away our constitutional, individual rights as regards the ownership of our land, as well as many other of our freedoms and liberties, as guaranteed and protected by the U.

Are Federal Health Insurance Mandates Constitutional?

Link

by Rob Natelson

There have been some on-line discussions recently of whether a federal mandate that individuals obtain health insurance would violate the U.S. Constitution. This issue is distinct from the issue of whether other sorts of government health programs – such as single-payer – would be constitutional.

It is also distinct from whether states can impose insurance mandates. They can: States have general governmental powers. But the federal government has only the powers enumerated (listed) by the Constitution.

Let us be clear at the outset that federal involvement in health care (except in a few isolated instances, such as federal employee benefits) certainly violates the Constitution as that document was originally understood.

I have now spent nearly twenty-years of my life researching and publishing scholarly studies on the Founding-Era record, and I have found no significant evidence that those who wrote and ratified the Constitution thought federal power would extend to health care. Quite the contrary: When the Constitution was being promoted to the public, one of the big selling points was that regulation of all such matters would remain exclusively with the states.  Continue Reading 

Obey’s “Share our Sacrifice Act”: “Let those who worship the god of war, tithe to that god out of their own pockets”.

 

By: Marti Oakley  ALL RIGHTS RESERVED (c) copyright 2009

“Maybe congress and most especially Rep. Obey should submit a “get a conscience; honor your oath of office; honor the Constitution and serve the people who elected your sorry behind ” bill.”

SHARE OUR SACRIFICE?  HR 4130

I would start here by asking who the “our” is in this bill’s title?  Is he referring to the corporate US government?  I want to know what it is those included in the word “our”, are sacrificing? 

I would suggest that Rep. Obey and every other elected official who voted for funding, continued funding, continuing the misuse of our military for corporate benefit, do the right thing:  SHARE OUR SACRIFICE…….please, refuse any further congressional pay and, return all increases in wages and wages paid from the start of these wars you condoned in direct violation of the Constitution, with the full knowledge you were sending our troops to conduct a war on behalf of multi-national oil cartels.

Please forgo any perks associated with your position: limo services, private staff, golden fleece insurance and most especially the “retirement” payments you have supplied yourself even if you are convicted of a felony.  These few “sacrifices” on your part could save the country hundreds of millions of dollars each year and could be used to help offset the borrowing done using the land assets of everyday Americans.  After all, this seems a minor sacrifice compared to our military families having to bury their dead as they come home.  Its not as if any one of you actually represents the sovereign states or their citizens.  I see no reason to continue to pay you for “no services rendered”.    

Do you have weapons that are not locked up in your home?

by: Marti Oakley (c) 2009  All rights reserved

 

A PPJ reader asked us to share this with all of you:

Been to the doctor recently?  I just went for my check up and what a surprise!

The questionaire I was asked to fill out prior to seeing the doctor has now expanded to twelve (12) pages.  On page ten (10) appeared this question:

“Do you have guns in your home that are not locked up?”  My answer was: “None of your damn business”.

The questions that comprised the rest of the questionaire were on family history (not applicable). 

Do I smoke? How much? How often? (Not Applicable)

Do I drink? How much? How often?  (Not applicable)

This was page after page of data mining that had no bearing on the cause for me to be there to which I responded: NOT APPLICABLE. 

Why didn’t they ask me if I had been forced to consume gmo contaminated food?

Why didn’t they asked if I was forced to drink fluoridated water?

Why didn’t they ask if I had been previously poisoned by lethal pharmaceuticals?

The doctor asked me how I expected him to treat me effectively if I wouldn’t supply all this non-relevant information? I responded:

“I guess you’re going to have to actually pay attention to me and actually try to practice medicine”.

I was told to find a new doctor if I wasn’t going to cooperate.  I think I would be better off staying away from them altogether.
