Stephen D. Foster, Jr. has the story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Congress is considering HR 3166 and S. 1698 also known as the Enemy Expatriation Act, sponsored by Joe Lieberman (I-CT) and Charles Dent (R-PA). This bill would give the US government the power to strip Americans of their citizenship without being convicted of being ‘hostile’ against the United States. In other words, you can be stripped of your nationality for ‘engaging in, or purposefully and materially supporting, hostilities against the United States.’ Legally, the term ‘hostilities’ means any conflict subject to the laws of war but considering the fact that the War on Terror is a little ambiguous and encompassing, any action could be labeled as supporting terrorism.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foster goes on to say, “I hope I’m wrong, but it sounds to me like this is a loophole for indefinitely detaining Americans. Once again, you just have to be accused of supporting hostilities which could be defined any way the government sees fit. Then the government can strip your citizenship and apply the indefinite detention section of the NDAA without the benefit of a trial&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See complete article at:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/home/?p=4405"&gt;Chuck Baldwin live&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-7008436582021857040?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/7008436582021857040/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2012/01/first-ndaa-now-enemy-expatriation-act.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7008436582021857040'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7008436582021857040'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2012/01/first-ndaa-now-enemy-expatriation-act.html' title='First NDAA; Now Enemy Expatriation Act'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-5108399809331684661</id><published>2011-08-04T14:55:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-08-04T15:07:43.593-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Raising The Debt; Lowering The Boom</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;If one has eyes to see let them see.

Did this really surprise anyone? Despite  millions of pieces of communication from their constituents to the  contrary, congressmen and senators voted by substantial margins to  increase the debt ceiling by up to $2.4 trillion. The House vote was 269  to 161. The Senate vote was 74 to 26.

As the allied supreme commander from World War II who supervised sometimes fractious generals from different nations and later NATO commander who faced a far more hostile Soviet Union, Eisenhowever obviously was no wimp. Whatever one thinks of his administration's policies, he understood his duties as president--promoting peace, believing in civilian rule, and emphasizing congressional authority over the decision to go to war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Three days before leaving office, he spoke to the American people. He feared the potential influence of the war lobby:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence-economic, political, even spiritual--is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Unfortunately, we seem to have lost that "alert and knowledgeable citizenry" holding the military-industrial complex in check. But we still have time. Indeed, accountability in government is one of the basic missions of Campaign for Liberty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Full article&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.campaignforliberty.com/index.php#40279"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-956981137120217230?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/956981137120217230/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2011/01/remember-dwight-eisenhower.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/956981137120217230'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/956981137120217230'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2011/01/remember-dwight-eisenhower.html' title='Remember Dwight Eisenhower'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-3688804399598605313</id><published>2011-01-06T18:43:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2011-01-06T18:53:03.109-06:00</updated><title type='text'>A Nation Of Truth-Rejecters</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Truth is not always in the Majority and this is straight talk form Chuck.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;By Chuck Baldwin January 6, 2011&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bedrock principle of Natural Law (the Law upon which WesternCivilization rests) is the primacy of truth. Without a desire for, and appreciation of, truth, society cannot sustain itself. Lies, deceit,duplicity, etc., are more than moral evils; they are the bane offreedom and liberty. Take away truth, and one is left without honor,justice, or decency. Truth is the cement that holds the bricks andstones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former andthe latter will crumble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Years ago, a great, old preacher-warrior told my former churchcongregation, “People today love being lied to.” How right he was!For the most part, even professing Christian people today love beinglied to. It would seem that many people find deceit easier to digestthan truth. Maybe it’s because these people lack the aforementionedvirtues of honesty and courage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truth demands the virtue of honesty, because honesty requires thatinformation be objectively analyzed and studied; it requires that personal prejudices and proclivities be set aside; it requires that humility replace pride, which allows one’s opinions and conduct tochange in the face of truth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truth also demands courage, as courage is the active response tohonesty. To know what is right to do is great (many people do not evenknow this much), but to act upon what one knows to be right is evengreater--and also harder! Courage gives men the fortitude andconviction to suffer personal loss in order to be faithful to their own honesty. Courage places more value on honesty and truth than onpersonal prosperity or aggrandizement. Courage propelled Daniel intothe lion’s den; it drove Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego into theburning fiery furnace; it placed a youthful David onto the battlefieldalone against a fierce and ferocious adversary; it gathered PastorJonas Clark’s congregants (mostly farmers and merchants) ontoLexington Green to face Britain’s highly trained, professionalsoldiers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, where are the virtues of honesty and courage in the desire fortruth today? Threaten the average pastor and church leader with someobscure IRS tax code and they will quickly turn their backs uponvirtually every principle of truth and honor that they once professedto believe. The mere threat of potential financial loss sends men(excuse me, males) scurrying for cover.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this regard, when then-Senator Lyndon Johnson created the heinous501(c)3 IRS tax-exempt status for churches, he very cleverly (withassistance from Hades, I might add) planted the seeds that would growup to intimidate the vast majority of America’s pastors and churchleaders into becoming silent slaves of the state. In fact, if one hasan opportunity to ever bore deeply into the matter, he or she willdiscover that most pastors and church leaders today do not even regardthe Church as the institution of the living God, bound only to thelaws and principles of God’s Holy Word; they perceive it as acreature of the state, bound to the subjective machinations of IRSbureaucrats and their toadies in the law profession. And should achoice ever have to be made between the two, God, His Word, and HisChurch will be thrown under the bus in preference to the state-ownedcorporation. So much for truth--or honesty, or courage, for thatmatter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The rejection of truth seems ubiquitous in America today. When did itstart? Maybe when Abraham Lincoln turned the Constitution on its headand--at bayonet point--turned republicanism into nationalism; maybewhen Woodrow Wilson rejected thousands of years of human history andturned America’s sound money system over to the corrupt andillegitimate Federal Reserve; maybe when Wilson created the monstrousInternal Revenue Service; maybe when the 17th Amendment was adopted;maybe when the American media convinced people that Lee Harvey Oswaldacted alone in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy; maybewhen the American people (including the vast majority of pastors andChristians) turned their backs (and their hearts) to the BranchDavidians, who were murdered by federal agents outside Waco, Texas;maybe when so-called “conservative” Senate Republicansdeliberately chose to cover up President Bill Clinton’s criminalconduct; maybe when the powers that be began demonizing anyone whodared to question the “official” story regarding the events on9/11/01; maybe when a vast majority of Christians and conservativesblindly followed and actively supported the unconstitutional,un-American policies of President George W. Bush. They supported Bushwhen he threw off Western Civilization’s time-tested Just Wardoctrine (and replaced it with an unconscionable Preemptive Warpolicy), and, again, when he officially began turning America into apolice state by creating the Department of Homeland Security,implementing the Military Commissions Act, introducing the PatriotAct, and dismantling Habeus Corpus and Posse Comitatus. Whenever itstarted, the sad reality is, America has largely become a nation oftruth-rejecters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a passage of Scripture that I simply must interject here:“Because they received not the love of the truth . . . God shallsend them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.” (IIThess. 2:10,11 KJV)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is one of God’s universal principles: when people deliberatelyreject truth, God will allow them to believe lies, which always leadsto ultimate destruction. I submit that is exactly where America istoday. As a nation, we have rejected truth, and God is giving us overto deceit and falsehood. And what is interesting to me is the way inwhich many unbelievers seem to have a thirst for truth that farsurpasses that of many professing Christians. This leads to an amazingparadox.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think of it: when God is moving within a nation with His plan oftruth and justice (which He is always doing), then it stands to reasonthat the evil one is, likewise, resisting and countering God’s planthrough deceit and falsehood. This means that those unbelievers whoseek truth are allying themselves with God (maybe even unwittingly),while those professing Christians who have rejected truth are allyingthemselves against God (again, maybe even unwittingly). Remember, Godcalled the heathen king, Cyrus, “my shepherd.” (Isa. 44:28) Butone thing is constant: truth is like a magnet: one is always beingpulled toward it or away from it, depending upon the polarity ofone’s heart and mind. People who embrace truth tend to embrace itfurther, while people who reject truth tend to be continually hardenedagainst it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think of the conflicts of world and American history where brothersfought against brothers. Many of these brethren died at the hands ofbrethren fighting for truth, while other brethren died fightingagainst truth. And though men may be unable to discern the difference,God suffers from no such malady. He knows those who enable truth andthose who disable it. And many of those today that are resisting anddisabling truth call themselves Christians. There is anotherappropriate Scripture: “By their fruits ye shall know them.”(Matt. 7:20 KJV)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, the desire for truth is a bedrock principle of a free andindependent society. We must desire truth, first, in our own hearts.We must be willing to objectively analyze our motives and actionsbased upon this fundamental principle. How can so many people(including professing Christians) behave so dishonestly? How can theyact so cowardly? How is it that truth is only precious when itdoesn’t cost us anything? How can people be so unconcerned abouttruth and so spiteful toward those who seek it? How can those whoclaim as their Savior the One is “the way, the truth, and thelife” be so calloused against truth? How can those who claim to readthe word of truth (the Bible) be so ignorant of truth?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look around you: our society is breaking apart due to a lack ofappreciation for truth. Small businesses are being put out of businessdue to a lack of truth. Families are being torn apart due to a lack oftruth. Churches are filled with bitterness, carnality, envy, deceit,duplicity, false accusation, greed, and cowardice due to a lack oftruth. Our political institutions mock the principles of decency andhonor due to a lack of truth. The national media loves to distorttruth; the federal judiciary loves to twist truth; and there is nosuch thing as truth to Big Business--only bottom line profits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we enter a new year in search of Heaven’s blessing andprotection, let us remind ourselves that God always judges people whoreject truth. Always! If we truly want Heaven’s blessing andprotection upon our land, we will start--each of us--by being willingto seek and embrace truth, even if doing so costs us something;because, in reality, people who reject truth lose a whole lot morethan whatever they had hoped to gain. Eventually, they lose, not onlytheir own lives, but also the life of their country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-3688804399598605313?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/3688804399598605313/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2011/01/nation-of-truth-rejecters.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/3688804399598605313'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/3688804399598605313'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2011/01/nation-of-truth-rejecters.html' title='A Nation Of Truth-Rejecters'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-6810506583477236744</id><published>2010-11-10T15:15:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-11-10T15:23:37.756-06:00</updated><title type='text'>America’s Bread And Circus Society</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By Chuck Baldwin November 10, 2010&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Roman poet Juvenal (circa 100 A.D.) wrote regarding the waylatter-day Roman emperors retained power and control over the massesthat were seemingly more than happy to obsess themselves withtrivialities and self-indulgences while their once-great-and-powerfulempire collapsed before their very eyes. He wrote:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the Peoplehave abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handedout military command, high civil office, legions--everything, nowrestrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread andcircuses.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; I submit that a good many in America are, like Rome of old,carelessly frittering away their God-given liberties, foolishlyclamoring for nothing more than government handouts and never-endingentertainment. Millions and millions of Americans (especially males)are literally intoxicated with sports. Sports are no longer a greatAmerican pastime; they are now a great American obsession.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mind you, this writer has been a sports fan all of his life. I beganplaying organized basketball in the fifth grade; I was on the highschool wrestling team; I played football in high school and college;and I ran track. Still today, I enjoy watching a good NFL game (yes,I’m still a Green Bay Packers fan), a good college game when theGators are playing, a good NCAA men’s basketball game (especiallyduring the tournament--even more so when the Hoosiers are in it), andany NBA championship series between the Celtics and Lakers (I root forBoston). And I even like to watch a round of professional golf once ina while (it helps me go to sleep when I’m trying to take a nap). Butnone of the above will interfere with anything that is important, andI am not going to plan my whole universe around any of it. If it isconvenient, I will watch. If it’s not, I will read about it in thesports section of the newspaper. And I’m certainly not going tospend my hard-earned money following any sports team (even those Ilike) all over the country like some rock band groupie.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I am not talking about sports in general; I am talking about the waymany American men have allowed sports to control and dominate theirlives. With many, sports are not just a hobby; they are a religion. Icannot count the number of conversations between men that I overhearin restaurants, airplanes, boardrooms, and, yes, even church houses,in which every man in the circle is literally consumed with all sortsof sports facts, information, and opinions. In many such discussions,these men will talk about nothing else. To these men, there isabsolutely nothing in the world more important than the latest sportsscore, announcement, or trade. NOTHING!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;And there is also a very real psychological pitfall associated with aman’s intoxication with sports. I submit that an obsession withsports gives men a false sense of masculinity and actually serves tosteal true manhood from them.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For example, it used to be when men stripped their shirts off andpainted their faces, they were heading to the battlefield to kill thetyrant’s troops. Now they are headed off to the sports coliseum towatch a football game. A man’s ego and machismo was once used toprotect his family and freedom; now it’s used to tout battingaverages and box scores. The fact is, if we could get the averageAmerican male to get as exercised and energized about defending thehistoric principles upon which liberty and Western Civilization arebuilt as he is in defending his favorite quarterback or NASCAR driver,our country would not be in the shape it is in today.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The sad reality is that much of today’s masculinity is experiencedonly vicariously through a variety of sports teams and personalities.Instead of personally flexing our muscles for God and country, freedomand liberty, or home and hearth, we punch the air and beat our chestsover touchdowns and home runs (even though we had absolutely nothingwhatsoever to do with them ourselves). Instead of getting in the faceof these would-be tyrants in Washington, D.C., who are doingeverything they can to steal the American dream, we get in the face ofthe poor umpire who makes a bad call or the Little League coach whodoesn’t play my son enough. Our happiness, well-being, and mood arenot determined by anything personally achieved (or lost), but by whatothers accomplished (or didn’t accomplish) at the ball park. Whetherour children inherit a land of liberty and freedom does not seemnearly as important as whether they make the starting lineup on thefootball team.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Add to an epidemic obsession with sports the demand for more and morehandouts from Big Brother and the outlook for liberty is not good.Everywhere we turn, we seem to hear people clamoring for government togive them more and more. They expect government to supply their everyneed and meet their every demand. They then have the gall to turnaround and say, “God bless America: land of the free”? &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ladies and gentlemen, one cannot have it both ways. If we expectgovernment to be our supplier, we cannot expect that it will notbecome our master. Always remember this: government has nothing togive except that it first takes it from someone else. Every dollar andevery job that government gives is first taken from someone else.Furthermore, every job given to government is another freedom--andanother dollar--taken from the citizenry. Every government job bringswith it a restriction, a prohibition, a regulation, an inspection, afee, a tax, an assessment, etc. As government grows, freedom shrinks.As government spends, wealth shrinks. And as government hires,opportunity shrinks. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Most historians agree with Juvenal that the mighty Roman Empirecollapsed from within due to a morally reckless, selfish,pleasure-crazed, sports-obsessed, bread and circus society thatwillingly surrendered the principles of self-government to aninsatiable central government that, through perpetual wars andincessant handouts, destroyed a once-great republic. By all appearances, the bread and circus society has reared its uglyhead in America. And make no mistake about it: if the people of theUnited States do not quickly repent of this madness, the consequenceswill be just as destructive for our once-great republic as it was for Rome.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-6810506583477236744?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/6810506583477236744/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/11/americas-bread-and-circus-society.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/6810506583477236744'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/6810506583477236744'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/11/americas-bread-and-circus-society.html' title='America’s Bread And Circus Society'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-7705792422415728701</id><published>2010-10-19T16:26:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-10-19T16:39:26.964-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Establishment Republicans Poised to Take Control of House from Establishment Democrats</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;For the most part this headline is true, but their is some non-establishment Republicans poised to win.

Then it should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party, which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Full article &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/establishment-republicans-poised-to-take-control-of-house-from-establishment-democrats/"&gt;HERE.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-7705792422415728701?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/7705792422415728701/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/10/establishment-republicans-poised-to.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7705792422415728701'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7705792422415728701'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/10/establishment-republicans-poised-to.html' title='Establishment Republicans Poised to Take Control of House from Establishment Democrats'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-5760272565765649729</id><published>2010-09-29T12:08:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-09-29T12:17:53.632-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Seeks Sweeping Power for Internet, Cell Phone Wiretaps</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;My honest conclusion is that they are already doing this and they includes the former republican administration. The point is that they are just trying to make legal what they have been doing for years. Just because legislatures pass a bill does not make it a lawful law or Constitutional. But I guess tyranny is okay as long as it comes from your little tyrant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Report: US Would Make Internet Wiretaps Easier&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WASHINGTON — Broad new regulations being drafted by the Obama administration would make it easier for law enforcement and national security officials to eavesdrop on Internet and e-mail communications like social networking Web sites and BlackBerries, The New York Times reported Monday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The newspaper said the White House plans to submit a bill next year that would require all online services that enable communications to be technically equipped to comply with a wiretap order. That would include providers of encrypted e-mail, such as BlackBerry, networking sites like Facebook and direct communication services like Skype.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Federal law enforcement and national security officials say new the regulations are needed because terrorists and criminals are increasingly giving up their phones to communicate online.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We're talking about lawfully authorized intercepts," said FBI lawyer Valerie E. Caproni. "We're not talking about expanding authority. We're talking about preserving our ability to execute our existing authority in order to protect the public safety and national security."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The White House plans to submit the proposed legislation to Congress next year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The new regulations would raise new questions about protecting people's privacy while balancing national security concerns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;James Dempsey, the vice president of the Center for Democracy and Technology, an Internet policy group, said the new regulations would have "huge implications."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"They basically want to turn back the clock and make Internet services function the way that the telephone system used to function," he told the Times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Times said the Obama proposal would likely include several requires:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Any service that provides encrypted messages must be capable of unscrambling them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Any foreign communications providers that do business in the U.S. would have to have an office in the United States that's capable of providing intercepts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Software developers of peer-to-peer communications services would be required to redesign their products to allow interception.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Times said that some privacy and technology advocates say the regulations would create weaknesses in the technology that hackers could more easily exploit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;© Copyright 2010 The Associated Press.

Leslie Deak. In addition to serving on the group's board of advisors since its founding in 2004 by Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, Deak was its principal funder, donating $98,000 to the nonprofit between 2006 and 2008. This figure appears to represent organization's total operating budget—though, oddly, the group reported receipts of just a third of that total during the same time period.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deak describes himself as a "Practicing Muslim with background in Christianity and Judaism, [with] in-depth personal and business experiences in the Middle East, living and working six months per year in Egypt." Born into a Christian home, Deak became an Orthodox Jew and married a Jewish woman before converting to Islam when he married his current wife, Moshira Soliman, with whom he now lives in Rye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Leslie Deak's resume also notes his role as "business consultant" for Patriot Defense Group, LLC, a private defense contractor with offices in Winter Park, Florida, and in Tucson. The only names listed on the firm's website are those of its three "strategic advisers." These include retired four-star General Bryan "Doug" Brown, commander of the U.S. Special Operations Command until 2007, where he headed "all special operations forces, both active duty and reserve, leading the Global War On Terrorism," and James Pavitt, former deputy director for operations at the Central Intelligence Agency, where he "managed the CIA's globally deployed personnel and nearly half of its multi-billion dollar budget" and "served as head of America's Clandestine Service, the CIA's operational response to the attacks of September 11, 2001."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Besides Pavitt, Brown and a third advisor, banker Alexander Cappello, the Patriot Defense Group is so secretive it doesn't even name its management team, instead describing its anonymous CEO as a former Special Forces and State Department veteran, the group's managing director as a former CIA officer experienced in counter-terrorism in hostile environments and the group's corporate intelligence head as a "23-year veteran of the U.S. Secret Service who worked on the personal security details of former Presidents Bush and Clinton."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But meanwhile, links between the group behind the controversial mosque, the CIA and U.S. military establishment have gone unacknowledged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Patriot Defense Group's primary business involves leveraging its government connections and know-how. The firm is divided into two divisions: one that "focuses exclusively on the needs of the U.S. military and law enforcement communities as well as the requirements of friendly foreign governments," and a corporate division, which "provides business intelligence and specialized security services to corporate clients and high net-worth family enterprises."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, to recap: From 2006 to 2008, R. Leslie Deak worked as a "business consultant" to this super-secretive security contractor with ties to the CIA and counterterrorism forces, and in those same three years he also donated nearly $100,000 in seed money to the foundation now advocating the construction of the so-called Ground Zero Mosque.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly, during the same three-year period during which the Deak Family Foundation was financing the Cordoba Initiative, Deak also donated a total of $101,247 to something called the National Defense University Foundation. The National Defense University is a network of war and strategy colleges and research centers (including the National War College) funded by the Pentagon, designed to train specialists in military strategy. The organization recently announced a November 5 dinner gala in honor of Defense Secretary and former CIA chief Robert Gates. Sponsors include Northrup Grumman, Boeing, Lockheed Martin and...the Patriot Defense Group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deak also sits on the NDUF's board of directors, the chairman of which is Mark Treanor, the former general counsel for Wachovia bank from 1998 through its collapse in 2008 and a major bundler of campaign donations for the McCain-Palin ticket in 2008. Wachovia, now owned by Wells Fargo, was recently fined $160 million for laundering "at least $110 million" in Mexican drug money between 2003 and 2008, while Treanor was Wachovia's general counsel, though the figure is likely higher since Wachovia admitted it didn't put any controls on at least $420 billion—that's billion—in cash moved through its network of Mexico currency exchanges.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which leads to another odd coincidence: Laundering money for drug lords is what brought down Deak &amp;amp; Co., the company run by Leslie Deak's father, Nicholas Deak, years ago. The elder Deak, a former top intelligence commander during World War II for the OSS (the forerunner of the CIA), was the founder of Deak-Perera, which became for a time one of the world's biggest foreign currency and gold dealers. But in 1984, a Presidential Commission on Organized Crime accused the firm of acting as a money laundering operation for Columbia drug cartels, who reportedly brought sacks of cash containing tens of millions of dollars into Deak's Manhattan offices. By the end of 1984, Deak &amp;amp; Co. had declared bankruptcy, and a year later, Nicholas Deak was murdered in the company's headquarters at 29 Broadway by a deranged homeless woman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the firm went bankrupt and Leslie Deak was left on his own, the corporation was broken up and sold off in pieces. One company that traces its beginnings to the defunct Deak empire is Goldline International, a business concern well known to fans of Glenn Beck as well as California investigators. Goldline is to Glenn Beck what General Electric was to Ronald Reagan: The company sponsors Beck's TV and radio shows as well as his touring act, and Beck is its public face. The Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, along with the Santa Monica City Attorney's office, are currently investigating Goldline for defrauding customers by railroading gullible customers into buying their most debased products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of Glenn Beck, it has been reported that Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, the second-largest shareholder in News Corp., the parent company Fox News, which airs Beck's program, is also a major funder of Imam Rauf's projects, as Jon Stewart viewers heard all about last week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coincidences happen, of course. (For instance, Pamela Geller, the blogger who's become the leading voice denouncing the mosque project was once, bizarrely enough, associate publisher of The New York Observer.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But add to this array of unexpected connections the work of Imam Rauf on behalf of the U.S. government—which includes serving as an FBI "consultant" and being recruited as a spokesperson by longtime George W. Bush confidante Karen Hughes, who headed up the administration's propaganda efforts in the Muslim world—and a compelling picture begins to emerge. Bush's favorite Imam, with backing from a funder with connections to the CIA, the Pentagon and the currency trading company that now sponsors rightwing firebrand Glenn Beck, proposes to build a mosque around the corner from the site of the most devastating terrorist attack ever visited on America. In the name of "[cultivating] understanding among all religions and cultures," he puts forth a project that offends a majority of Americans and deals a significant setback to the broader acceptance of Muslim-Americans. It's a little like Billy "White Shoes" Johnson claiming the only reason he moonwalks after scoring a touchdown is to lower tensions on the football field and raise the other team's spirits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whether the Cordoba Initiative ever gets its way with the Ground Zero Mosque, it may well have a lasting legacy at odds with its stated intention: By damaging the very moderates and progressives who actually view New York, and the nation as a whole, as a tolerant melting pot, and strengthening the position demagogues on both sides, it will almost certainly deal a setback to interfaith relations. It will also help to hobble the Democratic party. Which just might have been the point all along.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Either that, or it's merely a coincidence that this controversy has erupted now, during crucial mid-term elections. In which case we can all go back to what we were doing before—either denouncing the Park51 Mosque as an affront to Americans, or championing it as a symbol of our fundamental rights-playing our accustomed roles in a drama that seems too perfect, somehow, to believe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-5639072364080507916?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/5639072364080507916/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/09/conspiracy-fact-or-conspiracy-theory.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5639072364080507916'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5639072364080507916'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/09/conspiracy-fact-or-conspiracy-theory.html' title='Conspiracy Fact or Conspiracy Theory'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-2892579950411208407</id><published>2010-08-31T15:31:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-08-31T15:46:43.797-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Iraq: An End or an Escalation?</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;First, I am glad that some of our troops are coming home from Iraq. Second, their is no such thing as non-combat troops. I was in the U. S. Army and all of the soldiers have weapons. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Dr. Pual makes some very great points in his article. Here is some highlights: &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;"50,000 US troops remain in Iraq, and they are still receiving combat pay.One soldier was killed in Basra just last Sunday, after the supposed end of combat operations...Their mission will be anything but desk duty. Among other things they will accompany the Iraqi military on dangerous patrols, continue to be involved in the hunt for terrorists, and provide air support for the Iraqi military. They should be receiving combat pay, because they will be serving a combat role!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By Ron Paul&lt;br /&gt;Amid much fanfare last week, the last supposed "combat" troops left Iraq as the administration touted the beginning of the end of the Iraq War and a change in the role of the United States in that country. Considering the continued public frustration with the war effort, and with the growing laundry list of broken promises, this was merely another one of the administration’s operations in political maneuvering and semantics in order to convince an increasingly war-weary public that the Iraq War is at last ending. However, military officials confirm that we are committed to intervention in that country for years to come, and our operations have in fact, changed minimally, if really at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After eight long draining years, I have to wonder if our government even understands what it is to end a war anymore. The end of a war, to most people, means all the troops come home, out of harm’s way. It means we stop killing people and getting killed. It means we stop sending troops and armed personnel over and draining our treasury for military operations in that foreign land. But much like the infamous "mission accomplished" moment of the last administration, this "end" of the war also means none of those things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;50,000 US troops remain in Iraq, and they are still receiving combat pay. One soldier was killed in Basra just last Sunday, after the supposed end of combat operations, and the same day 5,000 men and women of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment at Fort Hood were deployed to Iraq. Their mission will be anything but desk duty. Among other things they will accompany the Iraqi military on dangerous patrols, continue to be involved in the hunt for terrorists, and provide air support for the Iraqi military. They should be receiving combat pay, because they will be serving a combat role!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course the number of private contractors -- who perform many of the same roles as troops, but for a lot more money -- is expected to double. So this is a funny way of ending combat operations in Iraq. We are still meddling in their affairs and we are still putting our men and women in danger, and we are still spending money we don’t have. This looks more like an escalation than a draw-down to me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ongoing war in Iraq takes place against a backdrop of economic crisis at home, as fresh numbers indicate that our economic situation is as bad as ever, and getting worse! Our foreign policy is based on an illusion: that we are actually paying for it. What we are doing is borrowing and printing the money to maintain our presence overseas. Americans are seeing the cost of this irresponsible approach as our economic decline continues. Unemployed Americans have been questioning a policy that ships hundreds of billions of dollars overseas while their own communities crumble and their frustration is growing. An end to this type of foreign policy is way overdue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A return to the traditional American foreign policy of active private engagement and non-interventionism is the only alternative that can restore our moral and fiscal health&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-2892579950411208407?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/2892579950411208407/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/08/iraq-end-or-escalation.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2892579950411208407'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2892579950411208407'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/08/iraq-end-or-escalation.html' title='Iraq: An End or an Escalation?'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-6118091322119214419</id><published>2010-08-23T13:58:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-08-23T14:05:59.211-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Will Republicans Save Us?</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;I highly doubt it but we shall see. We must remain extremely vigilant upon the success of the Republicans taking control of the Federal Government. We must not turn a blind eye to Liberty killing legislation (like the USA Patriot Act. and FISA Act.) no matter whether they have D or an R in front of their names. We The People must remain nipping on the heals of our elected public servants no matter what party we identify with. If we don't, then we will continue the down hill slide toward total tyranny.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Will Republicans Save Us?&lt;br /&gt;By Walter E. Williams (Archive) · Wednesday, August 18, 2010&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Democrat control of the White House, House of Representatives and the Senate has produced an unprecedented level of political brazenness and contempt for the limitations placed on the federal government by the U.S. Constitution. As such, it has raised a level of constitutional interest and anger against Washington's interference in our lives that has been dormant for far too long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of this heightened interest and anger is seen in the strength of the tea party movement around the nation. Another is the angry reception that many congressmen receive when they return to their districts and at town hall meetings. According to the most recent Gallup poll, only 20 percent of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing, but that's up from a March 2010 low of 16 percent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The smart money suggests that there will be a Republican takeover of the House of Representatives and possibly the Senate. The question is what can liberty-minded Americans expect from a Republican majority? Maybe a good starting point for an answer might be to examine how Republicans have handled their majority in the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Democrat President Lyndon Johnson's term of office saw massive increases in federal spending. When Johnson was elected into office in 1964, federal spending was $118 billion. When he left office in 1968, federal spending was $178 billion, a 66 percent increase. Worse than the massive increase in federal spending, his administration and Democratically controlled Congress saddled us with two programs that have helped fuel today's fiscal disaster -- Medicare and Medicaid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 1994 elections gave Republican control of both the House and Senate. They held a majority for a decade. The 2000 election of George W. Bush as president gave Republicans what the Democrats have now, total control of the legislative and executive branches of government. When Bush came to office, federal spending was $1.788 trillion. When he left office, federal spending was $2.982 trillion. That's a 60 percent increase in federal spending, closely matching the profligacy of Lyndon Johnson's presidency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the Republican control, the nation was saddled with massive federal interference in education through No Child Left Behind. Prescription drug handouts became a part of the Republican-controlled Congress' legacy. And it was during this interval that Congress accelerated its interference, assisted by the Federal Reserve Bank, in the housing market in the name of homeownership that produced much of the financial meltdown that the nation suffered in 2008.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the last two years, Democrats have amassed unprecedented growth of federal government power in the forms of bailouts, corporate takeovers, favors to their political allies and nationalization of our health care system. My question is how likely is it for Republicans to behave differently if they gain control? Their past behavior doesn't make one confident that they will behave much differently, but I could be wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Republicans win the House of Representatives, there are measures they should take in their first month of office, and that is to undo most of what the Democratically controlled Congress has done. If they don't win a veto-proof Senate, they can't undo Obamacare but the House alone can refuse to fund any part of it. There are numerous blocking tactics that a Republican-controlled House can take against those hell-bent on trampling on our Constitution. The question is whether they will have guts and principle to do it. After all, many Americans, including those who are Republicans, have a stake in big government control, special privileges and handouts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ultimately, we Americans must act to ensure that our liberty does not depend on personalities in Washington. Our founders tried to do that with our Constitution. Thomas Jefferson offered us a solution when he said, "The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;COPYRIGHT 2010 CREATORS.COM &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-6118091322119214419?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/6118091322119214419/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/08/will-republicans-save-us.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/6118091322119214419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/6118091322119214419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/08/will-republicans-save-us.html' title='Will Republicans Save Us?'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-7196181300232530265</id><published>2010-08-12T15:29:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-08-12T15:40:15.098-05:00</updated><title type='text'>TARP Billions Shipped Overseas Can't Halt Global Slowdown</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Nothing surprises me anymore. It should be obvious now if it hasn't already, that the TARP was for the banks not "We The People." Yet again through a crisis the fat cats get fatter and the rest of us foot the bill. There should be Grand Juries convened over this, but I bet you they won't. Why, because in Dick Durbins own words, "The banks own the place."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By: David A. Patten&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Economists and conservatives reacted sharply Thursday to reports that tens of billions in TARP bailout money flowed out of the United States and into the coffers of big banks in France, Germany, and other nations during the government rescue of the U.S. financial system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That news came as the U.S. economic picture continued to worsen, with rising unemployment claims and a surge in U.S. homes lost to foreclosure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CATO Institute budget analyst Tad DeHaven tells Newsmax: “The economy has become increasingly global, so it’s not shocking that TARP bailout money ended up at foreign financial institutions. Nonetheless, bailing out U.S. financial firms was bad enough — that foreign institutions also benefitted from the largesse just adds insult to injury.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;J.D. Foster, senior economics fellow at The Heritage Foundation, said: "The overwhelming force slowing the economy down now is a lack of confidence among American businesses and consumers. The primary reason for that lack of confidence is the policies out of Washington seem completely out of touch with that reality."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That reaction follows Thursday's report from the Congressional Oversight Panel report that, when the United States injected hundreds of billions of TARP money to stabilize the U.S. financial system in September 2008, it also bailed out more than 40 major institutions based overseas that had invested in collateralized debt obligations and mortgage-backed securities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"There were no data about where this money was going," Elizabeth Warren, head of the panel investigating the bank bailout, explained in a conference call with reporters on Wednesday. "The American people have a right to know where the money went."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The TARP money flowed to overseas banks largely because of their investment in AIG, which received about $182 billion in federal bailout funds. Roughly half of the 87 banks and investment firms who would have lost billions without the AIG bailout were headquartered overseas, the Oversight Panel reports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The major foreign beneficiaries included the French bank Societe Generale ($11.9 billion in AIG money), the French bank BNP Paribas ($4.9 billion in AIG funds), and Germany's Deutsche Bank ($11.8 billion), according to The Associated Press. Banks in Canada, Switzerland, and Britain cashed in on the AIG rescue as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many economists credit TARP with staving off a worse financial crisis. But TARP, and the subsequent $862 billion stimulus, also failed to lift the economy out of chronic, massive joblessness and spiraling federal debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"TARP was a waste of money and should never have been implemented," Diana Furchtgott-Roth, director of the Center for Employment Policy for the Hudson Institute, tells Newsmax. "Rather, the funds should have been spent on tax cuts to stimulate the economy."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The news that foreign as well as U.S. firms were bailed out by TARP, a program already unpopular with voters, is expected to add intensity to the recent Republican mantra of House Minority Leader Rep. John Boehner and RNC Chairman Michael Steele, who continue to demand, "Where are the jobs?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Oversight Panel offered the veiled criticism that U.S. leaders should have asked the countries whose banks received the most benefit from TARP to share in its cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One criticism of the global bailout is that the United States contributed more, via is action to salvage AIG and other institutions, than foreign governments spent on their entire bailout plans. France spent $35 billion on its financial rescue plan, for example. Germany spent $133 billion. The Oversight Report states the TARP bailout probably helped overseas banks more than their own nations' financial rescue packages did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reports on the economy issued Thursday, meanwhile, indicate the nation's economic problems continue to worsen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The RealtyTrac organization reported that July marked the 17th consecutive month when foreclosure activity exceeded 300,000 homes. The company reported "near-record levels of bank repossessions," which have increased for eight months in a row.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One a brighter note, total foreclosure filings dropped down 9.7 percent compared to July 2009. That marks the second straight month of year-to-year declines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adding to the overall sense of economic malaise, the Labor Department released weekly jobless numbers that show an uptick in first-time claims for unemployment benefits, which reached 484,000 last week. That's a seasonally adjusted increase of 2,000 from the week before. Those claims have increased three of the past four weeks. The Dow Jones Industrial average reacted to the economic news by dropping over 70 points before rebounding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thursday's economic news also indicates the global economy now appears to be softening, making it unlikely that economic growth in China or India can stimulate business in America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Derek Scissors, the Heritage Foundation's international economic analyst, tells Newsmax that the notion that strong economic growth overseas, in China for example, could be relied upon to boost the U.S. economy was always suspect and based on "misinformation."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"China's economy is slowing," Scissors confirms. "We continue to be an engine for the world economy, and China continues to benefit from that. It doesn't work the other way, and it's not going to work the other way this year, or next year, or for the foreseeable future."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adds Scissors: "All of this is very easy to anticipate. You have this massive government stimulus, and it automatically works for a while because they're injecting money into the country, then it doesn't work as well. That happened in the U.S. and it happened in China and it happened everywhere where government stimulus was relied upon as the savior.

He already has that authority in Article 1 section 9 first paragraph of the United States Constitution. Which has made illegal immigration illegal since 1808. Since Sheriff Arpaio has taken an Oath to uphold and defend the United States Constitution. All the authority to enforce illegal immigration rest with all law enforcement officers, because they all have taken an Oath to the Constitution. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Article Six of the United States Constitution mandates by law that all of our elected, judicial and executive (law enforcement) take an Oath to the Constitution. So, that means that Congress, the Senate, and the Administration is not upholding their oath and the Constitution. Is this not treason?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;By: Jim Meyers&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the controversial top cop in Maricopa County, Ariz., tells Newsmax he will jail any protesters who attempt to block his jail on Thursday when provisions of his state’s tough new immigration law take effect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arpaio also says it’s “great” if undocumented aliens react to the new law and his strict anti-illegal immigration agenda by moving back to Mexico or to the “sanctuary state” of California, and challenges President Barack Obama to invite him to the White House for a “wine summit” to discuss illegal immigration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arpaio, whose county includes most of the Phoenix metropolitan area, promotes himself as “America’s toughest sheriff.” He has limited county inmates to two meals a day, banned “sexually explicit material” in prison, reinstituted chain gangs, and set up a “tent city” as an extension of the Maricopa County Jail. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br

Yes it is true that Obama has removed troops from Iraq but has inserted Black Water and other mercenaries in their place (They take no oath to the Constitution.)

It seems to never end. We must stay vigilant and resist any and all attempts at expanding tyranny.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kurt Nimmo&lt;br /&gt;Infowars.com&lt;br /&gt;June 2, 2010&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outrage is rising over a Michigan lawmaker’s plan to introduce a bill to license bloggers and internet-based journalists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“State Sen. Bruce Patterson is introducing legislation that will regulate reporters much as the state regulates hairdressers, auto mechanics and plumbers. Patterson, who also practices constitutional law, says the general public is being overwhelmed by an increasing number of media outlets — traditional, online and citizen generated — and an even greater amount of misinformation,” Fox News reported on May 28. “Legitimate media sources are critically important to our government,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The establishment idea that “legitimate” media sources “are critically important to our government” is hardly a new idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obama’s man at the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Cass Sunstein, is on record as advocating holding blogs and alternative internet news media “responsible” for the information they publish. Sunstein penned a book entitled “On Rumors: How Falsehoods Spread, Why We Believe Them, What Can Be Done.” Sunstein’s book is essentially a blueprint for imposing online censorship. Kyle Smith, writing for the New York Post, notes that Sunstein would force bloggers and others not connected to the corporate media to prove criticism of the government and government officials.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The litigation expense would be daunting,” writes Smith, “the time necessary to defend a posting (or an article) would work to the benefit of the public figure being criticized since the delay would probably allow the figure to win an election before the truth ‘won out’. The mere threat of retaliatory actions would be enough to dissuade many commentators from daring to issue a word of criticism or skepticism” and would result in self-censorship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to enforce the government world view and its demands for political correctness, Sunstein has suggested infiltration of the blogosphere and dispatching covert agents into “chat rooms, online social networks, or even real-space groups.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunstein’s program would target those advocating false “conspiracy theories,” in other words “an attempt to explain an event or practice by reference to the machinations of powerful people, who have also managed to conceal their role.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Sunstein’s closeness to the President, as well as the highly influential position he occupies, merits an examination of the mentality behind what he wrote,” writes Glenn Greenwald.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Elena Kagan, also shares the mentality calling for government imposed censorship, specifically as it relates to the government assuming authority to prohibit corporations from engaging in political speech such as publishing pamphlets that advocate the election or defeat of a candidate for federal office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In March, Infowars.com reported on Rutgers University law professor Ellen Goodman, who is a “distinguished” visiting scholar with the FCC’s Future of Media Project. Goodman submitted a proposal for a government takeover plan targeted at the internet called the National Broadband Plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Commissar Goodman said the government needs to provide “narrative content necessary to involve the entire population in democratic decision making or to foster widespread economic and social flourishing.” She said there are “information gaps” in the investigative journalism arena, especially in regard to “undeserved, minority, and poor populations.” Goodman wants to “transcend” the “legacy public broadcasting system” in order to “correct these deficits,” including a government takeover of commercial television.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This “narrative,” of course, would be dictated by the government and the corporate and banking elite that controls and steers it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Goodman is not alone. FCC Commissioner Michael Copps has also come out in favor of government control of internet journalism. Coops told PBS’ Bill Moyers that the government has an interest in how the internet is used to “serve the American people.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The government and especially the corporate media have pushed the idea that “citizen journalism” is dangerous and should be licensed and regulated if not eliminated altogether.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2007, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution published a column suggesting citizen journalism “isn’t journalism at all, and it opens up information flow to the strong probability of fraud and abuse.” David Hazinski said the corporate media must act to ensure its monopoly on news by advocating the regulation of bloggers and alternative journalists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It can be argued that the corporate media engages in fraud and abuse continually, although this does not seem to be a concern for Mr. Hazinski. Case in point: the patently false claims made by neocons ensconced in the Bush administration and the Pentagon in order to provide a pretext for the invasion of Iraq. One culprit in particular, Judith Miller of the New York Times, was not punished for engaging in fraud and abuse. She is now a regular fixture on the neocon television network Fox News.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Corporate media is not about journalistic standards, objectivity, and an unbiased search for the truth, as Hazinski would have us believe. It is about propaganda in the name of the state. As Walter Lippman noted, corporate media is concerned with “the manufacture of consent,” not truth. Lippman argued that the people are incapable of accurately understanding the complex “unseen environment” of public affairs and the modern state without a professional and “specialized class” of technocrat-journalists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Internet journalism has displaced this “specialized class” and has up-ended the once taken for granted primacy of the corporate media. This is why we are experiencing increasing calls by bureaucrats and the mandarins of the corporate media for a concerted effort to regulate bloggers and alternative journalists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manufactured consent for endless war, world government, and engineered control schemes such as climate change and deceptive economic palliatives designed to benefit bankers and the elite will not be successful if alternative media is allowed to question these policies and directives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-1060727405453266151?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/1060727405453266151/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/06/calls-increase-for-government-to.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/1060727405453266151'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/1060727405453266151'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/06/calls-increase-for-government-to.html' title='Calls Increase for Government to Regulate Internet Journalists and Bloggers'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-366770093199781263</id><published>2010-05-29T07:37:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-05-29T07:44:22.431-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Dollar to be Replaced with IMF’s SDR as Reserve Currency?</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;We will see. IMO it is not a matter of if but of when&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jim O’Neill, who did not make any friends within the bear community earlier today, has written an interesting paper on the IMF’s Special Drawing Rights, and whether this hypernational currency can ever become a reserve currency as is, and/or with the CNY as a constituent member. While O’Neill as usual focuses on the angle of the “next paradigm” BRICs, and how they will increasingly dominate global economics, he does pose an important question: with the dollar likely to suffer the side effects of either hyperdeflation, hyperinflation, or hyperstagflation, will the next reserve currency be a diluted melange of other flawed fiat constructs (i.e., the SDR), or the currency of the one country, which for all its flaws, still has the cleanest balance sheet backing its own fiat construct. On the other hand, the question of whether this analysis is moot to begin with, and the world will revert to the gold standard as the ongoing crisis of confidence in all paper money flares up, is not raised even once… We wonder (not really) what Jim O’Neill would have to say on that particular issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are the main bullets:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;— The issue of the ‘international reserve currency’ and the possible role of the IMF’s Special Drawing Rights (SDR) has moved from obscurity to the centre of discussions about the future.&lt;br /&gt;— Given China’s importance in terms of its share of world trade, the CNY should now be part of the SDR. The case for including it can only become more obvious as this decade progresses.&lt;br /&gt;— However, actually including the CNY as a constituent of the SDR is likely to remain a challenge without the CNY becoming more widely used internationally, including as a reserve asset.&lt;br /&gt;— The case for including other BRIC currencies in the SDR, especially the RUB, is also likely to become stronger over the coming decade.&lt;br /&gt;— Although the Dollar will probably not be as dominant in 2020 as it is today, it is far from clear that it needs to be replaced by the SDR—or by anything else—as the main reserve currency.&lt;br /&gt;— For the SDR to be attractive to private users, it will need to include the CNY and possibly other BRIC currencies. However, this alone would not guarantee that the SDR would be more attractive to private investors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The paper is a critical follow up to anyone who found Albert Edward’s earlier analysis of collapsing global FX reserves relevant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Full story&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/GS%20SDR%20Currencies.pdf"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-366770093199781263?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/366770093199781263/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/05/dollar-to-be-replaced-with-imfs-sdr-as.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/366770093199781263'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/366770093199781263'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/05/dollar-to-be-replaced-with-imfs-sdr-as.html' title='Dollar to be Replaced with IMF’s SDR as Reserve Currency?'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-2063995608671863680</id><published>2010-05-20T14:21:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T14:26:21.612-05:00</updated><title type='text'>State Pensions Now Federal Issue as Bailouts May Top $1 Trillion</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IMO, the feds may end up taking all of our pensions, 401k's, IRA's, and dump them into social security.

But state retirement systems could become a national concern, the Times reported, citing new research.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joshua Rauh, associate professor of finance at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University said that, without reform, some state pensions might run out within the decade, the Times reported.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By 2030, as many as 31 states may not have the money to pay pensions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, if these funds exhaust their assets, the size of payments for the benefits they have promised will be too large to cover through taxes, putting pressure on the federal government for a bailout that could potentially cost more than $1 trillion, he says.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“It is more than a local problem,” Rauh told the Times. “The federal government could be on the hook.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robert Megna, New York’s budget director, said his state had had to make “tough choices” to keep funding its pensions despite budget shortfalls over the past few years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On March 31, the state made a nearly $1 billion payment for the last fiscal year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We had to make cuts: education, healthcare, local government support and not-for-profit providers,” Megna said of the last year’s budget process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This year, a dozen states have enacted pension reforms more substantial than the minor ones of the past, stateline.org reports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Among these are Illinois, which raised its retirement age to 67 from 62 for new hires, Wyoming, which began asking current state workers to contribute to their retirement, and Utah, which closed its defined benefit plan to new workers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;© Moneynews.

dollars, Congressman Ron Paul warns that the constant monetization of debt, allied with taxpayer-funded bailouts, will inevitably lead to runaway inflation and the collapse of paper currencies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the terms of the Federal Reserve’s credit swap deal with the EU – in addition to an additional IMF bailout of which U.S. taxpayers will be picking up 20 per cent ($57 billion dollars) of the tab, Paul pointed out that not just taxpayers but “anybody that buys anything” will be funding the European bailout because of the attendant inflationary consequences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The prices are going up already, producer prices are going up, the cost of living will go up so everyone in American will suffer and eventually the whole world will suffer because we cannot carry the whole world with our dollar,” Paul told Fox Business, adding that eventually people will lose confidence in the dollar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Congressman agreed with the host that the bailouts would lead to the crash of paper currencies, noting that last week’s stock market turmoil was accompanied by gold acting as a currency rather than just reacting to the value of the dollar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Gold has been money for 6,000 years and it will remain that way and it will rule the roost,” said Paul, adding that the dollar was weak in comparison with the strength of gold.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“All paper currencies are under attack and this cannot be sustained,” said the Congressman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul then explained how the ECB has completely reversed its promise that it wouldn’t monetize debt and how Bernanke had also gone back on his word that U.S. dollars would be use for this purpose. “When I talked to Bernanke last time in the Committee he said they had no intention of bailing out Greece but they are, through the IMF as well as opening up these swap lines to all the central banks, so it is on the shoulders on the burden of the American taxpayer and our dollar so all we’re doing is perpetuating a very very bad system and this is not a solution at all,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul agreed with the host that the bailout was merely a stunt to buy time while failing to address the underlying problem of European socialism and the entitlement culture, which is fast running out of money with which to keep itself ticking over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'

type='text'>The True POWER And The RIGHT of The JURY</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Judge Fogleman needs to be voted out of office&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I am doing this for two reasons. First it is my duty to inform my fellow citizens of the truth. Second this is to inform the voters of Arkansas of an Arkansas Supreme Court Candidate who doesn't believe the truth about Jury Nulification. That man is Judge John N. Fogleman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a discussion with Mr. Fogleman in Clinton Arkansas on March 13th 2010 over Jury Nullification. I asked the Judge if he believed in Jury Nullification and he said no he does not, because they are only to judge the facts of the case, (not the validity of the law).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I challenged him over the issue because our founding fathers have said the Jury has the right to judge both the law and the facts. The Judge challenged me back with his version of the facts and that Mr. Thomas Paine is a founder that would support his view. I responded with some other founding fathers to support my view. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTE: Not all the founding father agreed on all the issues. Jury nullification was decided by consensus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We ended the discussion with an agreement to research the matter: "The Power and the Right of the Jury to judge both the law and the facts is the issue that will be decided." I just hope that Mr. Fogleman has done his own research to double check himself. I also hope that upon the facts I have found that he would change his position. If he changes his position then a citizen should consider voting for him. However, if he does not amend his erroneous view, then a citizen should not vote for him because that would be re-installing a judge who does not uphold the Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may be asking why are you doing this? I am doing this because the truth needs a crusade and I am a firm believer that the "Truth is not always in the majority." Just because the majority says so does not always make it right or the truth. Also this has to do with tyranny and liberty. His position is one of tyranny (It may not be purposeful but his viewpoint could be one of ignorance.) My position is one of freedom, liberty, and the American way and these liberties are in jeopardy in direct proportion to the deviation from the Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have collected the quotes from several sources to keep from being accused of cherry picking. The founding Fathers, Supreme Court Justices, Court Rulings, news articles, and The JURY HANDBOOK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First here is some quotes from some founding fathers and etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The jury has a right to judge both the law as well as the fact in controversy."&lt;br /&gt;John Jay, 1st Chief Justice U. S. Supreme Court, 1789.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The jury has the right to determine both the law and the facts."&lt;br /&gt;Samuel Chase, U. S. supreme Court Justice, 1796, Signer of The unanimous Declaration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The jury has the power to bring a verdict in the teeth of both law and fact."&lt;br /&gt;Oliver Wendell Holmes, U. S. supreme Court Justice, 1902.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The law itself is on trial quite as much as the cause which is to be decided."&lt;br /&gt;Harlon F. Stone, 12th Chief Justice U. S. Supreme Court, 1941.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The pages of history shine on instances of the jury's exercise of its prerogative to disregard instructions of the judge..."&lt;br /&gt;U. S. vs. Dougherty, 473 F 2nd 1113, 1139, (1972)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Why do we love this trial by jury? Because it prevents the hand of oppression from cutting you off... This gives me comfort-that, as long as I have existence, my neighbors will protect me."&lt;br /&gt;Patrick Henry (Elliot, 3:545, 546).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Links for verification: &lt;a href="http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quotes/jury"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.personal.psu.edu/jph13/JuryNullification.html"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.newswithviews.com/guest_opinion/guest34.htm"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/john-jay"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.fija.org/docs/JG_Jurors_Handbook.pdf"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You see it is you the jury that have the final say. Our founding fathers put the power in to the people’s hands. Why? To keep us safe from bad law and tyranny of the government. It was also to protect us from corrupt judges, prosecutors, city councils, city boards, county boards, county quorum court, state legislatures, and federal legislatures.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-949584360320842800?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/949584360320842800/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/05/true-power-and-right-of-jury.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/949584360320842800'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/949584360320842800'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/05/true-power-and-right-of-jury.html' title='The True POWER And The RIGHT of The JURY'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-2850449111514385417</id><published>2010-04-20T09:09:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-04-20T09:43:23.400-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Army Report Says Christians Threaten US Foreign Policy</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Another message and warning from Chuck Baldwin&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Last Friday, I told readers of this column that I had come across a very disturbing government report and that I would be exposing that report during my Sunday address this past Sunday morning. I did exactly that, and anyone wishing to see an archived video of that address can do so by using this link (the video should be uploaded by this weekend):&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Video message by Chuck Baldwin&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/sermonvideo.php"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The report’s header reads, “Strategic Implications of American Millennialism, A Monograph by MAJOR Brian L.

Approved by: Timothy Challans, Ph.D., Monograph Director; Robert Taylor, COL, MI, Monograph Reader; Stefan J. Banach, COL, IN, Director, School of Advanced Military Studies; Robert F.

Before analyzing this report, here are some questions to ponder. Whose brainchild was this report? Did the major select the topic himself or did a superior assign it to him? To whom exactly was the report distributed? How was the report used? What are the interconnections between this report and the MIAC and Department of Homeland Security reports that draw similar conclusions? And perhaps the biggest question is, What does this report portend for government action in the future?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Major Stuckert speaks of millennialism, he is referring to the Biblical doctrine of Eschatology–specifically, the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to the earth to institute a 1,000-year (millennial) reign. He recognizes some of the nuances of this doctrine in his study, most notably post-millennialism and pre-millennialism. His report is heavily focused on pre-millennialism, however.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point, I feel it is necessary to make this observation: whether one is a post-millennialist or a pre-millennialist, the fact that we Christians believe in the literal return of Jesus Christ to the earth to establish His Kingdom puts us in the same boat, as far as the ramifications of Major Stuckert’s report–and similar reports–are concerned. We Christians need to recognize that, as far as the Stuckerts of this world are concerned, because we believe the Bible and we believe in the literal return of Christ, we are considered an enemy. We can disagree with one another all we want to about whether there is a Rapture (and if there is one, when it will occur), whether Christ will return before or after a millennial kingdom takes place, and scores of other theological differences, but none of that is important to the events at hand: there is a growing sense among many governmental and military leaders in America that Bible-believing Christians are an enemy that must be marginalized, warned about, watched, and even controlled. And it does not matter to a tinker’s dam to these Machiavellians whether one is a post-millennialist or a pre-millennialist. If we believe the Bible and believe that Jesus is coming again, they consider us “dangerous.” And we Christians better wake up to this stark reality, stop fighting each other, and focus on working together to preserve our liberties!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And one more early observation: there is an eerie and uncanny connection between the verbiage and spirit of Stuckert’s report and the now-infamous MIAC and Homeland Security reports. The timing, too, is significant. The MIAC and Homeland Security reports were produced shortly after Major Stuckert’s report was produced. A coincidence? Not on your life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some excerpts from Stuckert’s report:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Millennialism has great explanatory value, significant policy implications, and creates potential vulnerabilities that adversaries may exploit.” (Abstract, page iii.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“These factors [results of millennial belief] can be problematic for any military leader or planner attempting to achieve U.S. Government policy objectives through strategy, operations and programs.” (Abstract, page iv.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Notice that from the very outset of this report, Stuckert asserts that Christians who believe in the Second Coming create circumstances or conditions that might be “problematic” for America’s military leaders. We Christians also create “potential vulnerabilities” that America’s enemies may “exploit,” according to Stuckert. Furthermore, Stuckert laments that we Christians may even interfere with “U.S. Government policy objectives.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pray tell, exactly what are those “U.S. Government policy objectives” that Christians might prove to be “problematic” for? And is Major Stuckert suggesting that those Christian military officers currently serving in the US armed forces are somehow “problematic” to “U.S. Government policy objectives”? And do these same Christian officers make America “vulnerable” to our enemies? Is he suggesting that military officers in the US armed forces who believe in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ be expunged from military service, because of their beliefs?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As one will observe when reading the 61-page treatise, Major Stuckert, with a broad brush, paints millennialist Christians as being serious problems for America’s foreign policy and for “U.S. Government policy objectives,” and that we must be dealt with; but he offers no details on what, exactly, should be done. Or if he did, that part of his treatise is not a matter of public record.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More quotes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The impact of American millennial religious ideas on U.S. Government policy will add to strategic hubris, compel increasingly reckless international action, and continue to over-commit the military in ways the Nation cannot afford.” (Page 1)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, notice that Christians who believe in Christ’s return add to pride, recklessness, and war. Good grief! I suppose that we Christians are also responsible for the escalating price of gas and oil too–and maybe even global warming!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stuckert continues:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“First, millennial thought and its policy implications may create strategic transparency that affords adversaries an advantage in decision-making. Second, an understanding of American millennial thinking may provide adversaries with the means to manipulate American policy and subsequent action. Third, the enemy may exploit American millennialism to increase the fragility of and even disrupt coalitions. Fourth, adversaries may exploit American millennialism to demoralize or TERRORIZE joint forces and the American people. By recognizing these potential vulnerabilities, military leaders and planners may TAKE ACTION NOW to mitigate the effects.” (Page 2. Emphasis added.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear reader, is the hair standing up on the back of your neck yet? If not, it should be!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Major Stuckert, the belief in Christ’s Second Coming makes us vulnerable to America’s adversaries. In fact, these adversaries (are they foreign or domestic? He doesn’t specify) might even exploit this belief to “TERRORIZE . . . the American people.” (Emphasis added.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There’s that “T” word again! Do you now see the connection to the MIAC and Homeland Security reports? Is it all starting to make sense now? Because we believe in the literal return of Christ to the earth, do people such as Major Stuckert consider us to be potential terrorists?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And just what does Stuckert mean by the statement, “Military leaders and planners may take action now to mitigate the effects”? Does he propose that we Christians be rounded up and put in all these FEMA camps (that don’t exist)? Just how does he plan for the US military to “mitigate” the effects of us Christians? This statement is downright chilling!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this report, Major Stuckert specifically mentions the holiness and Pentecostal churches; as well as the Assemblies of God; non-denominational churches; and Independent and Southern Baptists. Again, anyone who believes in the Second Coming of Christ is targeted in this report. According to Stuckert, “Millennialism actually refers to any system of belief or interpretation that employs a literal thousand years, or chiliad, in reading and applying Revelation 20:1-7.” (Page 9)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stuckert even went so far as to say that Christian “mission work, especially overseas, [has] significant implications for U.S. foreign policy.” (Page 27)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I bet that when you folks make that financial donation to your church’s foreign missions program you have no idea that you are causing significant (negative) implications for US foreign policy. Well, Stuckert thinks you are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stuckert also berates Millennialists for “[driving] the U.S. further from the U.N. in the near future since many pre-millennialists have to come to view that body as a platform for the Anti-Christ.” He went on to say, “American pre-millennialists will also feel increasingly threatened by the E.U. in coming years.” And, “Pre-millennial interpretations of biblical prophecy that predict the emergence of a one-world government led by an anti-Christ causes distrust and even antagonism toward organizations like the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, the European Union, NAFTA and OPEC.” (Page 52)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other words, folks, Stuckert is greatly chagrined that we Christians do not, and will not, accept the push toward global government being orchestrated by institutions such as the UN, the EU, et al. He feels that because we oppose NAFTA, GATT, the WTO, the FTAA, and the overall NEW WORLD ORDER agenda, we are “problematic” and must be “mitigated.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stuckert goes on to blame Christians for “problems for relations between the U.S. and Russia” (Page 53), problems in the Middle East and China (Page 56), as well as coming “global disaster.” (Page 55)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Major Stuckert then makes an incredible admission on page 58. He said, “War is primarily about politics. While geography and technology play a role, in order to be successful military leaders must be able to see the political goals as clearly as possible. Because of the influence of pre-millennialism, it can be difficult for military leaders to see themselves and their government accurately and state policy goals objectively.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What did he say? “War is primarily about politics”? I thought war was about defending the people and territory of the United States. I thought war was about protecting freedom and liberty. War is about politics? So that’s why our young men are fighting and dying in Iraq and Afghanistan? It’s all about politics? If so, whose politics? Major Stuckert’s? Barack Obama’s? George W. Bush’s? The CFR’s? The UN’s? Exactly whose politics is sending our sons and daughters to fight and die? The good major doesn’t say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But did you catch that last sentence? “Because of the influence of pre-millennialism [and he could just as easily have said post-millennialism], it can be difficult for military leaders to see themselves and their government accurately and state policy goals objectively.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Holy cow! Belief in the Second Coming blinds military leaders? They cannot see themselves or their government accurately? What the heck does this mean? Is Stuckert saying that because a military officer believes the Bible–believes in the return of Christ to the earth–he or she cannot see themselves and cannot “see” their government properly? Exactly what is it about his or her government that cannot be accurately seen? Maybe Stuckert means that because a Christian military officer believes in God, he or she cannot recognize government to be his or her god. Is that it, Major Stuckert? You want us all to see the US federal government as god?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On page 59, Stuckert accuses belief in millennialism of producing “pessimism and paranoia.” On the same page, he accuses people who believe in millennialism of causing a “predisposition toward pessimism in world affairs and a general worsening of international relations.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah! That’s right, Major! You devote 61 pages (and untold hours producing them) accusing Christians of bringing “global disaster” to the world, but we are the ones who are paranoid? If that isn’t the pot calling the kettle black, I don’t know what is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On page 60, Stuckert blames Christians for having a “proclivity for clear differentiations between good, evil, right, and wrong [which] do not always serve us well in foreign relations or security policy.” Oh! Really?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is Stuckert saying that there is no right and wrong in regard to America’s policies with foreign nations? Is he saying that there is no such thing as right and wrong in regard to security policies? Is Stuckert saying the US government should be able to do whatever it likes, regardless of right and wrong? Is he saying that anything done in the name of “security” is right, regardless of what it is? Is it right to lie to the American people, Mr. Stuckert? Is it right to violate the US Constitution? Is it right to murder? If there is no such thing as right and wrong, moral and immoral, in regard to the waging of war and other security matters, pray tell, what were those Nuremberg trials all about?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In researching this column, I found a World Net Daily report written by Bob Unruh on December 19, 2009. In his report, Unruh said that an Army spokesman “could not say whether any other writings ever had attacked a religious belief as Stuckert’s work.” That’s a good point. Where is the Army report that singles out people who embrace Islam, Judaism, Catholicism, or liberal Protestantism as being “problematic” to America’s foreign policy? Why is it that only people who embrace conservative Christianity, or fundamentalism/millennialism were singled out?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unruh’s report also notes that “no study or article refuting” Stuckert’s report has been discovered. Therefore, absent a counterpoint, it might be accurate to conclude that Stuckert’s report has become de facto US government policy. It certainly does appear that the particulars of Stuckert’s report made their way to both the MIAC and DHS reports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See Bob Unruh’s report at:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.printable&amp;amp;pageId=119315"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;See Major Stuckert’s report at:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tinyurl.com/am-millennialism-pdf"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My Sunday address exposing Major Stuckert’s report will be uploaded to my web site later this week.

Kitco Metals Roundup: Gold Higher as U.S. Dollar Index Weakens, Crude Oil Rallies&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By Jim Wyckoff&lt;br /&gt;14 April 2010, 8:23 a.m.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A weaker U.S. dollar index and higher crude oil prices are supporting fresh buying interest in Comex gold futures Wednesday morning. June gold was last traded up $5.70 an ounce at $1,159.10. Traders viewed Tuesday's price setback as a buying opportunity as the overall technical picture for gold remains fully bullish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Underlying support for gold continues to come from Greece's sovereign debt situation and the efforts of the European Union to deal with it. While more steps were taken this week to offer financing to Greece, many gold traders remain very skeptical that Greece can ultimately get out from under its huge debt burden without further economic and financial harm to the EU. That is leading to further buying interest in gold as a hedge against European currencies...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Just be prepared because we are next.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Read full article &lt;a href="http://www.kitco.com/reports/KitcoNews20100414.html"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Also check out this article &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/imf-prepares-for-global-cataclysm/"&gt;"IMF Prepares For Global Cataclysm" &lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-1390864241094313699?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/1390864241094313699/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/04/am-kitco-metals-roundup-gold-higher-as.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/1390864241094313699'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/1390864241094313699'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/04/am-kitco-metals-roundup-gold-higher-as.html' title='A.M.

I just thought you all might enjoy this little bit on the Gospel of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior and the connection with Genesis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Hidden Message:&lt;br /&gt;The Gospel in Genesis&lt;br /&gt;by Chuck Missler&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RESOURCES&lt;br /&gt;Cosmic Codes - Now In Paperback&lt;br /&gt;Genesis&lt;br /&gt;Flood of Noah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ARTICLES&lt;br /&gt;Meanings Of The Names In Genesis 5&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We frequently use the familiar term, gospel, or good news. Where is the first place it appears in the Bible? The answer may surprise you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Integrated Message&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The great discovery is that the Bible is a message system: it's not simply 66 books penned by 40 authors over thousands of years, the Bible is an integrated whole which bears evidence of supernatural engineering in every detail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Jewish rabbis have a quaint way of expressing this very idea: they say that they will not understand the Scriptures until the Messiah comes. But when He comes, He will not only interpret each of the passages for us, He will interpret the very words; He will even interpret the very letters themselves; in fact, He will even interpret the spaces between the letters!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I first heard this, I simply dismissed this as a colorful exaggeration. Until I reread Matthew 5:17 and 18:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Think not that I have come to destroy the Torah and the prophets; I have not come to destroy but to fulfill.&lt;br /&gt;For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."&lt;br /&gt;(A jot and tittle are the Hebrew equivalent of our dotting an i and the crossing of a t.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Example&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A remarkable example of this can be glimpsed in Genesis Chapter 5, where we have the genealogy of Adam through Noah. This is one of those chapters which we often tend to skim over quickly as we pass through Genesis it's simply a genealogy from Adam to Noah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But God always rewards the diligent student. Let's examine this chapter more closely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In our Bible, we read the Hebrew names. What do these names mean in English?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Study of Original Roots&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The meaning of proper names can be a difficult pursuit since a direct translation is often not readily available. Even a conventional Hebrew lexicon can prove disappointing. A study of the original roots, however, can yield some fascinating insights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(A caveat: many study aids, such as a conventional lexicon, can prove rather superficial when dealing with proper nouns. Furthermore, views concerning the meanings of original roots are not free of controversy and variant readings.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's take an example.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Flood Judgment&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Methuselah comes from muth, a root that means "death";1 and from shalach, which means to bring, or to send forth. The name Methuselah means, "his death shall bring".2&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Methuselah's father was given a prophecy of the coming Great Flood, and was apparently told that as long as his son was alive, the judgment of the flood would be withheld; but as soon as he died, the flood would be brought or sent forth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Can you imagine raising a kid like that? Every time the boy caught a cold, the entire neighborhood must have panicked!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, indeed, the year that Methuselah died, the flood came.3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is interesting that Methuselah's life, in effect, was a symbol of God's mercy in forestalling the coming judgment of the flood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, it is fitting that his lifetime is the oldest in the Bible, speaking of the extensiveness of God's mercy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Other Names&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there is such significance in Methuselah's name, let's examine the other names to see what may lie behind them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adam's name means man. As the first man, that seems straight forward enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seth&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adam's son was named Seth, which means appointed. Eve said, "For God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew."4&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enosh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seth's son was called Enosh, which means mortal, frail, or miserable. It is from the root anash, to be incurable, used of a wound, grief, woe, sickness, or wickedness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was in the days of Enosh that men began to defile the name of the Living God.5&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kenan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enosh's son was named Kenan, which can mean sorrow, dirge, or elegy. (The precise denotation is somewhat elusive; some study aids unfortunately presume that Kenan is synonymous with Cainan.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Balaam, looking down from the heights of Moab, uses a pun upon the name of the Kenites when he prophesies their destruction.6&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have no real idea as to why these names were chosen for their children. Often they may have referred to circumstances at birth, and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahalalel&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kenan's son was Mahalalel, from Mahalal which means blessed or praise; and El, the name for God. Thus, Mahalalel means the Blessed God. Often Hebrew names include El, the name of God, as Dan-i-el, "God is my Judge", etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jared&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahalalel's son was named Jared, from the verb yaradh, meaning shall come down.7&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enoch&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jared's son was named Enoch, which means teaching, or commencement. He was the first of four generations of preachers. In fact, the earliest recorded prophecy was by Enoch, which amazingly enough deals with the Second Coming of Christ (although it is quoted in the Book of Jude in the New Testament):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, "Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against."&lt;br /&gt;Jude 14, 15&lt;br /&gt;Methuselah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enoch was the father of Methuselah, who we have already mentioned. Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah.8 Apparently, Enoch received the prophecy of the Great Flood, and was told that as long as his son was alive, the judgment of the flood would be withheld. The year that Methuselah died, the flood came.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enoch, of course, never died: he was translated 9 (or, if you'll excuse the expression, raptured ). That's how Methuselah can be the oldest man in the Bible, yet he died before his father!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lamech&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Methuselah's son was named Lamech, a root still evident today in our own English word, lament or lamentation. Lamech suggests despairing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(This name is also linked to the Lamech in Cain's line who inadvertently killed his son Tubal-Cain in a hunting incident.10)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lamech, of course, is the father of Noah, which is derived from nacham, to bring relief or comfort, as Lamech himself explains in Genesis 5:29.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Composite List&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now let's put it all together:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hebrew English&lt;br /&gt;Adam Man&lt;br /&gt;Seth Appointed&lt;br /&gt;Enosh Mortal&lt;br /&gt;Kenan Sorrow;&lt;br /&gt;Mahalalel The Blessed God&lt;br /&gt;Jared Shall come down&lt;br /&gt;Enoch Teaching&lt;br /&gt;Methuselah His death shall bring&lt;br /&gt;Lamech The Despairing&lt;br /&gt;Noah Rest, or comfort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's rather remarkable:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man (is) appointed mortal sorrow; (but) the Blessed God shall come down teaching (that) His death shall bring (the) despairing rest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the Gospel hidden within a genealogy in Genesis!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(You will never convince me that a group of Jewish rabbis conspired to hide the Christian Gospel right here in a genealogy within their venerated Torah!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evidence of Design&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The implications of this discovery are more wide spread than is evident at first glance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It demonstrates that in the earliest chapters of the Book of Genesis, God had already laid out His plan of redemption for the predicament of mankind. It is a love story, written in blood on a wooden cross which was erected in Judea almost 2,000 years ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bible is an integrated message system, the product of supernatural engineering. Every number, every place name, every detail every jot and tittle is there for our learning, our discovery, and our amazement. Truly, our God is an awesome God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is astonishing to discover how many Biblical controversies seem to evaporate if one simply recognized the unity the integrity of these 66 books, penned by 40 authors over thousands of years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is remarkable how many subtle discoveries lie behind the little details of the text. Some of these become immediately obvious with a little study; some are more technical and require special helps.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of these discoveries are described in our Audio Book, Beyond Coincidence. Several are also highlighted in our Audio Book, The Creator Beyond Time and Space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look behind every detail: there's a discovery to be made! God always rewards the diligent student. What other messages lay hidden behind the names in the Bible? Check it out. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;**NOTES**&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.Muth, death, occurs 125 times in the Old Testament.&lt;br /&gt;2.See Pink, Jones, and Stedman in the bibliography.&lt;br /&gt;3.Methuselah was 187 when he had Lamech, and lived 782 years more. Lamech had Noah when he was 182 (Genesis 5:25-28). The Flood came in Noah's 600th year (Genesis 7:6, 11). 600 + 182 = 782nd year of Lamech, the year Methuselah died.&lt;br /&gt;4.Genesis 4:25.&lt;br /&gt;5.Genesis 4:26 is often mistranslated. Targum of Onkelos: ...desisted from praying in the name ; Targum of Jonathan: surnamed their idols in the name... ; Kimchi, Rashi, and other ancient Jewish commentators agree. Jerome indicated that this was the opinion of many Jews of his day. Maimonides, Commentary on the Mishna (a constituent part of the Talmud), a.d. 1168, ascribes the origin of idolatry to the days of Enosh.&lt;br /&gt;6.Numbers 24:21, 23.&lt;br /&gt;7.Some authorities suggest that this might be an allusion to the Sons of God who came down to corrupt the daughters of men, resulting in the Nephilim (Fallen Ones) of Genesis 6. These were discussed in our article last month (January 1996), and are also reviewed in our audio book, The Flood of Noah.&lt;br /&gt;8.Genesis 5:21, 24.&lt;br /&gt;9.Genesis 5:24.&lt;br /&gt;10.Genesis 4:19-25; rabbinical sources, re: Kaplan, et al.&lt;br /&gt;Bibliography:&lt;br /&gt;1.Eastman, Mark, and Missler, Chuck, The Creator Beyond Time and Space, The Word for Today, Costa Mesa CA, 1995.&lt;br /&gt;2.Jones, Alfred, Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names, Kregel Publications, Grand Rapids MI, 1990.&lt;br /&gt;3.Kaplan, Rabbi Aryeh, The Living Torah, Maznaim Publishing Corporation, Jerusalem, 1981.&lt;br /&gt;4.Pink, Arthur W., Gleanings in Genesis, Moody Bible Institute, Chicago IL, 1922.&lt;br /&gt;5.Missler, Chuck, Beyond Coincidence (audio book with notes), Koinonia House, Coeur d Alene ID, 83816, 1994.&lt;br /&gt;6.Rosenbaum, M., and Silbermann, A., Pentateuch with Onkelos's Translation (into Aramaic) and Rashi s Commentary, Silbermann Family Publishers, Jerusalem, 1973.&lt;br /&gt;7.Stedman, Ray C., The Beginnings, Word Books, Waco TX, 1978. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You can see more at &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.khouse.org/topical_bible_study/biblecodes/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;KHOUSE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-6893255002274156607?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/6893255002274156607/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/04/gospel-in-genesis.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/6893255002274156607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/6893255002274156607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/04/gospel-in-genesis.html' title='The Gospel in Genesis'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-5038834408987122764</id><published>2010-03-27T18:37:00.008-05:00</published><updated>2010-05-09T20:49:19.180-05:00</updated><title type='text'>The True POWER And The RIGHT of The JURY</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Judge Fogleman needs to be voted out of office&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I am doing this for two reasons. First it is my duty to inform my fellow citizens of the truth. Second this is to inform the voters of Arkansas of an Arkansas Supreme Court Candidate who doesn't believe the truth about Jury Nulification. That man is Judge John N. Fogleman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a discussion with Mr. Fogleman in Clinton Arkansas on March 13th 2010 over Jury Nullification. I asked the Judge if he believed in Jury Nullification and he said no he does not, because they are only to judge the facts of the case, (not the validity of the law).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I challenged him over the issue because our founding fathers have said the Jury has the right to judge both the law and the facts. The Judge challenged me back with his version of the facts and that Mr. Thomas Paine is a founder that would support his view. I responded with some other founding fathers to support my view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NOTE: Not all the founding fathers agreed on all the issues. Jury nullification was decided by consensus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We ended the discussion with an agreement to research the matter: "The Power and the Right of the Jury to judge both the law and the facts is the issue that will be decided." I just hope that Mr. Fogleman has done his own research to double check himself. I also hope that upon the facts I have found that he would change his position. If he changes his position then a citizen should consider voting for him. However, if he does not amend his erroneous view, then a citizen should not vote for him because that would be re-installing a judge who does not uphold the Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may be asking why are you doing this? I am doing this because the truth needs a crusade and I am a firm believer that the "Truth is not always in the majority." Just because the majority says so does not always make it right or the truth. Also this has to do with tyranny and liberty. His position is one of tyranny (It may not be purposeful but his viewpoint could be one of ignorance.) My position is one of freedom, liberty, and the American way and these liberties are in jeopardy in direct proportion to the deviation from the Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have collected the quotes from several sources to keep from being accused of cherry picking. The founding Fathers, Supreme Court Justices, Court Rulings, news articles, and The JURY HANDBOOK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First here is some quotes from some founding fathers and etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The jury has a right to judge both the law as well as the fact in controversy."&lt;br /&gt;John Jay, 1st Chief Justice U. S. Supreme Court, 1789.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The jury has the right to determine both the law and the facts."&lt;br /&gt;Samuel Chase, U. S. supreme Court Justice, 1796, Signer of The unanimous Declaration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The jury has the power to bring a verdict in the teeth of both law and fact."&lt;br /&gt;Oliver Wendell Holmes, U. S. supreme Court Justice, 1902.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The law itself is on trial quite as much as the cause which is to be decided."&lt;br /&gt;Harlon F. Stone, 12th Chief Justice U. S. Supreme Court, 1941.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The pages of history shine on instances of the jury's exercise of its prerogative to disregard instructions of the judge..."&lt;br /&gt;U. S. vs. Dougherty, 473 F 2nd 1113, 1139, (1972)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Why do we love this trial by jury? Because it prevents the had of oppression from cutting you off... This gives me comfort-that, as long as I have existence, my neighbors will protect me."&lt;br /&gt;Patrick Henry (Elliot, 3:545, 546).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Links for verification: &lt;a href="http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quotes/jury"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.personal.psu.edu/jph13/JuryNullification.html"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.newswithviews.com/guest_opinion/guest34.htm"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/john-jay"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.fija.org/docs/JG_Jurors_Handbook.pdf"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;You see it is you the jury that have the final say. Our founding fathers put the power in to the peoples hands. Why? Because to keep us safe from bad law and tyranny of the government. Also to protect us from corrupt judges, prosecutors, city councils, city boards, county boards, county quorum court, state legislatures, and federal legislatures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-5038834408987122764?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/5038834408987122764/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/03/true-power-and-right-of-jury.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5038834408987122764'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5038834408987122764'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/03/true-power-and-right-of-jury.html' title='The True POWER And The RIGHT of The JURY'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-7601668965299684769</id><published>2010-03-26T21:07:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-03-26T21:25:46.846-05:00</updated><title type='text'>More from the Judge</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;A couple of videos that are jammed packed with important information that we all need.

I think the Judge is one who calls it all like it is and he sees through the false left-right paradigm. The Judge looks at all of this stuff from the position of the Constitution and this is what makes him distinct from most News commentators. Also this health care bill reaches into just about every facet of our lives and both Mr. Jones and the Judge discuss this and other very important issues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Also my Friend Peter Schiff has also posted the interview. So here is some of his blogged comments and the link to his blog. Go check out his site because Mr. Schiff is full of great information also. "Judge Napolitano we do not have a two party system we have one party , the big Government party."

Consider the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. The Social Safety Net did not exist for the most part prior to the last Great Depression. It wasn't necessary because the family, Church and community took care of their own. Three generations often resided under one roof and homeopathic medicine was the primary treatment for most maladies. Prior to 1929, half of Americans lived on the farm and half in the cities. People took care of their own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Today, 97% of Americans live in an urbanized setting. We no longer grow our own food. The nuclear family, let alone the extended family, no longer exists in most cases. Most of our Churches have become dysfunctional and our communities have grown morally bankrupt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. FDR passed Social Security Legislation as part of his "New Deal" legislation in the 1930s. Originally, it only paid out retirement benefits when an individual lived longer than the life expectancy of most Americans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"When Social Security was launched 70 years ago Sunday, it was meant to be a supplement for retirees, not a full pension. But today, 10.6 million people, or 22% of the 48 million who will receive Social Security benefits this year, live on that check alone, the Social Security Administration says...AARP, the senior advocacy group, says 25% of retired women, including 46% of unmarried Hispanic women, have no income beyond Social Security. AARP also says 33% of retired African-Americans live on Social Security alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those numbers could grow as the baby boom generation enters retirement. Currently, 53% of people in the workforce have no pension, and 32% have no savings set aside for retirement. The number of traditional pension plans — the kind that guarantee a set amount of money for life and that have propped up many of the pre-boomer generation — has fallen to 29,651 in 2004 from 112,208 in 1985...The average Social Security payout is $955 a month, $11,460 annually." (source)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Social Security is grossly underfunded without any reserves. Contrary to what most people think, all current Social Security obligations are paid for with borrowed money an current tax obligations. Employers pay 7.65% of the employees payroll up to $102,000 (6.2% for Social Security and 1.45% for Medicare). The employee pays the other half for a total of 15.3% of an employees gross income. The self-employed pay a simular tax, called the self-employment tax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, in essence, 15.3% of most peoples income goes into Social Security. Because of using that money for other obligations and not investing it, the program is for all intents and purposes, bankrupt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not being helped by illegal aliens receiving Social Security benefits, or the current 20% real unemployment rate. NAFTA, GATT and multi-national corporations can produce goods and services in third-world countries without the cost of producing them in the US and Europe. In other words, it is not going to get any better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add to this the average male and female now live into their 80s and will receive benefits for 20-25 years and you begin to see the mess the politicians and their co-conspirators have gotten us into.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, think about this. There are an estimated 1,000 Trillion dollars in unpaid derivatives contracts out there. The trillions in bail-out money hasn't even scratched the surface. The global economy is only 35 trillion dollars, so that gives you a small taste of the magnitude of the real problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This "health reform" law is nothing more than a political distraction, designed to take our focus off of the fact that:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. The Federal Reserve Banking System has robbed us blind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. The national debt, most of which is owed to the Fed for using their worthless paper currency, has robbed us of our future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. One thousand trillion dollars in derivatives contracts will lead to a major debt default with hyper-inflation. Our creditors will use this as a pretext for war. Don't believe me? Just ask Argentina what happened when they defaulted on foreign debts. They lost the Faulklands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Illegal immigration, with little enforcement, has made our labor force even less attractive to many employers. We cost money. They cost little.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will discuss this in more detail in our next article.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;It seems Paul A Drockton has about covered it all in this article.

Just read it all and think about what has gone on of late.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Since the establishment media is convinced that tea party members, 9/11 truthers, libertarians, Ron Paul supporters, and basically anyone with a dissenting political opinion is a likely domestic terrorist, they should be celebrating the fact that a new bill would allow the government to detain such people as “enemy belligerents” indefinitely and without trial based on their “suspected activity”.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The “Enemy Belligerent, Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010,” introduced by Senators John McCain and Joseph Lieberman on Thursday with little fanfare, “sets out a comprehensive policy for the detention, interrogation and trial of suspected enemy belligerents who are believed to have engaged in hostilities against the United States by requiring these individuals to be held in military custody, interrogated for their intelligence value and not provided with a Miranda warning,”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2010/03/a-detention-bill-you-ought-to-read-more-carefully/37116"&gt;The Atlantic&lt;/a&gt; "&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Detention Bill You Ought to Read More Carefully"...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The bill does not distinguish between U.S. citizens and non-citizens, and states that “suspected belligerents” who are “considered a “high-value detainee” shall not be provided with a Miranda warning.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A person is considered a “high value detainee” if they fulfil one of the following criteria.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;(1) poses a threat of an attack on civilians or civilian facilities within the U.S. or U.S. facilities abroad; (2) poses a threat to U.S. military personnel or U.S. military facilities; (3) potential intelligence value; (4) is a member of al Qaeda or a terrorist group affiliated with al Qaeda or&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;(5) such other matters as the President considers appropriate...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Pay specific attention to the powers given to the President in part 5. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;I talked and warned about this back last spring when the MIAC report and the Homeland security reports came out.

In this article the author is trying to put us into these different camps. He takes the different tragedies of late and tries to put these people into the group of right wing extremists. There is only one problem these people have a wide range of views that cross ideological lines. Again the msm tries to divide and conquer us. All of this is to keep us from having a united front. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;The full Washington Post article &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/05/AR2010030504438.html"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By Joby Warrick and Spencer S.

But John Patrick Bedell's violent rampage Thursday made him only the latest in the growing ranks of the disaffected and disturbed to take aim at a symbol of official Washington&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The shooting contained jarring echoes of other recent attacks, from last month's plane crash at an IRS building in Texas to the shooting last June of a museum guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in the District. Although the circumstances differ greatly, all were acts of rage by men who blamed their personal misfortunes on what they perceived to be sinister forces within the government&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All three also appear to have drawn ideological nourishment from the same well: online communities of like-minded people who validate and amplify extreme views. Today, more than in recent years, such communities are tapping into a broad undercurrent of anti-government discontent fueled by economic recession, joblessness and concern over the growing federal deficit, according to experts who have studied the phenomenon&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For Bedell and others like him, Washington and its institutions are an irresistible target -- the "ultimate symbol of power for the powerless," said Jerrold Post, a professor of political psychology at George Washington University.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We've always had individuals who strike out at the giant 'system' when they're feeling a sense of powerlessness and insignificance," said Post, author of "Political Paranoia: The Psychopolitics of Hatred," a book on extremist movements. "Now we see an alarming tendency in which these same individuals can find substantiation online for almost any point of view."...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Get ready for the msm attack machine to go into high gear. They will use every trick in the book to get you to think that the other guy is a radical. This is a sure sign that the establishment is in fear of loosing the power they have had for more than sixty years. Don't underestimate these people, they are ruthless, and will do whatever it takes to maintain their control. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-7240624541638354723?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/7240624541638354723/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/03/miss-labeling-of-labels.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7240624541638354723'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7240624541638354723'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/03/miss-labeling-of-labels.html' title='The miss Labeling of Labels'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-2453766244253787208</id><published>2010-03-04T13:33:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-03-04T13:57:49.542-06:00</updated><title type='text'>It is Time to Stop Being and Start Being</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Calling all Americans.

I will explain why before I go into how. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;For way to long we have been divided in this country. We have been divided between liberal-conservative, left-right, and Democrat-Republican. You see the establishment and the controlled msm keep us in these camps. The left commentators blame everything on the evil right and the right blames everything on the left. This is how they keep us divided. We spend more time fighting with one another and in reality we have more in common than we do not. Jesus said a house divided cannot stand. The old divide and conquer strategy and it is working masterfully. You see if they can keep us fighting over the little things then the elite can get those politicians to pass bills that really matter to them. Granted that their has been some bills defeated but that is cause we have come together and stood as good Americans.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;This how we stand together. We look at the issues that really matter and that we agree on. We stick to the Constitution (all parts of it) and demand our elected officials follow it ( cause they take an Oath to the Constitution.) Once the federal government has been rolled back into the boundaries of the Constitution. Then we at the state and local level can have a legitimate debate and action on how we execute the solutions to the differences and problems. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;I know that this is contrary to most of our political philosophy. I know that this will take a lot of swallowing of pride. I know that it will be a long hard process and not a overnight solution. But we didn't arrive here in this situation over night.

It is called “Cyber Shockwave” and it posits a cyber attack on the United States...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Folks I watched part of this special on CNN and I could not believe some of the things these people said.

I really hope not but we shall see. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;...From the NewsonNews website:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CNN will air a two-hour production, We Were Warned: Cyber Shockwave, based upon exclusive television access to a national security cyber “war game” scenario. The simulated event was developed by The Bipartisan Policy Center and will debut Saturday, Feb. 20 and Sunday, Feb. 21 at 8pm, 11pm and 2am ET on CNN. The scenario was created by Fmr. CIA Director, General Michael Hayden (ret.) as well as the co-chairs of the 9/11 Commission, Fmr. Rep. Lee Hamilton (D-IN) and Fmr. Gov. Thomas Kean (R-NJ).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The simulation includes the usual government insiders acting as government officials (no acting required — they are all former government officials) who have gathered in the “situation room” to confront a cyber attack shutting down telecommunications and the power grid on the east coast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additional participants who served various roles for the scenario are: Fmr. U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff, Fmr. Director of National Intelligence John Negroponte, Fmr. White House Homeland Security Advisor and CNN contributor Fran Townsend, Fmr. Director of Central Intelligence John McLaughlin, Fmr. U.S. Senator Bennett Johnston, Jr. (D-LA), Fmr. National Economic Council Director Stephen Friedman, Fmr. U.S. Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick, Fmr. White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart, Fmr. National Security Agency General Counsel Stewart Baker, and Gen. Charles Wald, USAF (Ret.), former Deputy Commander of the United States European Command.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How should the government deal with the threat? Federalize the National Guard to deal with unruly mobs freaking out over the loss of electricity. Nationalize utility companies so the NSA and the government get electricity. The participants also recommended new powers be granted to the president. Not surprisingly, they declared the president has the authority to take unprecedented action against the states and the private sector under the Constitution&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JxYR-v0_jPE&amp;amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JxYR-v0_jPE&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CNN and the participants agreed the slick propaganda presentation is aimed at the American people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;For full story by Kurt Nimmo &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/cnn-broadcasts-major-cyber-war-game-propaganda/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8793665479012347164?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8793665479012347164/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/cnn-broadcasts-major-cyber-war-game.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8793665479012347164'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8793665479012347164'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/cnn-broadcasts-major-cyber-war-game.html' title='CNN Broadcasts Major Cyber War Game Propaganda'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-5899879217547254743</id><published>2010-02-19T11:43:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-02-19T12:06:05.474-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Glenn Beck Associates Tea Parties With Austin Bomber, Asks If Austin Bomber Is “Radical Constitutionalist”</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;It is amazing to me that the establishment will do to stay in control.

He went into a scripted screed about how the tea parties need to get away from anyone calling for a revolution, “whether it’s a Tea Party revolution or a communist one.” He knows full well the Tea party movement is about a restoration of our constitution and bill of rights, no one has ever suggested a violent revolution involving flying planes into buildings and for him to even suggest that there is any connection shows his true colors...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Come and check out the rest of this article, videos and links. &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/glenn-beck-associates-tea-parties-with-austin-bomber-asks-if-austin-bomber-is-radical-constitutionalist/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-5899879217547254743?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/5899879217547254743/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/glenn-beck-associates-tea-parties-with.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5899879217547254743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5899879217547254743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/glenn-beck-associates-tea-parties-with.html' title='Glenn Beck Associates Tea Parties With Austin Bomber, Asks If Austin Bomber Is “Radical Constitutionalist”'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-4652492760541024559</id><published>2010-02-12T21:17:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-02-12T21:41:56.063-06:00</updated><title type='text'>A Warning To The Tea Party Nation</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Straight from the Chuck Wagon, Mr. Baldwin peals back the layers of slime and tells us the truth. This is the reason why, unless we ask God for discernment, and truly scrutinize our representatives, and the grass root movements. If we don't then it will be business as usual in Washington D. C. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;A Warning To The Tea Party NationBy Chuck BaldwinFebruary 12, 2010&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As far as grassroots activism goes, the surge in Tea Parties across Americais one of the more encouraging developments to recently take place. Itreminds me of the "Conservative Revolution" of 1994, when the GOP reclaimedboth the US Senate and House of Representatives. At that time, it had beenover 40 years since the Republican Party controlled both the US House andSenate. And, between the two, the House victories were the most significant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spurred mostly by the election of Bill Clinton in 1992, a host of young,energetic freshman Republicans marched into Washington, D.C., determined toreturn a burgeoning and out-of-control federal leviathan to theconstitutional precepts of limited government. I'm talking aboutthen-freshman House members such as Helen Chenoweth, Steve Largent, BobBarr, Joe Scarborough, Sonny Bono, John Shadegg, J.C. Watts, etc. Theseyoung conservatives went to Washington, D.C., determined to reduce thegrowth and size of the federal government&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The vehicle used to transport these young conservatives from grassrootsactivism to US House and Senate seats was the highly touted "Contract withAmerica" (CWA), which was orchestrated by House Speaker-to-be, NewtGingrich. The CWA included a promise to the American people that if theywould give the GOP a majority in Congress, they would eliminate up to 5federal departments--such as the Departments of Energy and Education--andmany federal agencies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obviously, not only did the GOP-controlled Congress not eliminate a singlefederal department or agency--or even shrink the size of the federalgovernment at all--it expanded the size and scope of the federal governmentat every level. And there is one reason for it: Big Government neoconsposing as champions of conservatism co-opted and destroyed the ConservativeRevolution of 1994.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If one wants to put names to these treasonous wretches (and I do), I'mtalking about charlatans such as Newt Gingrich and Trent Lott. Anyone whothinks that Newt Gingrich is a real conservative or that he will do anythingto reduce the size and scope of the federal government needs to speak withany of those Republican members of the freshman class of 1994. (Sadly, too,some of the members of that great freshman class went on to become BigGovernment toadies themselves. Such is the power of that Putrid Province bythe Potomac.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Tea Parties of 2010 remind me very much of the Conservative Revolutionof 1994. And if the Tea Party Nation is not very careful, they will succumbto the same fate. The signs of a silent takeover of the movement are alreadyappearing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First of all, the Tea Parties were actually born during the Presidentialcampaign of Congressman Ron Paul of Texas in 2007 and 2008. For all intentsand purposes, the Tea Parties and the Ron Paul Revolution were one and thesame. These were (mostly) young people, who were sick and tired of the sameold establishment Republican Party. They were tired of establishmentRepublicans selling out the principles of limited government; they weretired of the US Constitution being ignored and trampled by both Republicansand Democrats; they were tired of an incessant interventionist US foreignpolicy that keeps sending US forces overseas to advance a burgeoning NewWorld Order (NWO); they were tired of perpetual war; they were tired of thebank bailouts; they were tired of the Federal Reserve; etc&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know this because I met--and spoke before--the Tea Party Nation in Stateafter State as I campaigned for Dr. Paul during the Republican primariesback in 2008. And I met them again all over America, as I was running as anIndependent candidate for President--with Ron Paul's endorsement, no less. Iwas with them in scores of meetings (big and small) from Washington, D.C.,to Spokane, Washington, and all points in between.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But now many of the Tea Parties are distancing themselves from Dr. Paul andembracing establishment players such as Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck. EvenNewt Gingrich is being courted. Watch out, Tea Party Nation: you're indanger of losing your soul! Newt Gingrich is not one of you. He is not yourfriend. He is an imposter. He will destroy you just like he almostsingle-handedly destroyed the Conservative Revolution of 1994&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plus, be careful about Sarah Palin and other establishment Republicans.Palin is currently playing both sides. She is promoting Big Governmentneocons such as John McCain on the one hand, and sincereconservative-libertarians such as Rand Paul on the other hand. But if onewants a real barometer of Palin's true colors, look no further than herendorsement of Rick Perry in Texas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perry is the quintessential establishment Republican. Perry has been inoffice for some 9 years, and what has he done to thwart the NWO in Texas?Nothing! Perry is even a Bilderberg Group attendee. What has he done forState sovereignty in Texas? Nothing! In fact, he supports the North AmericanUnion and the NAFTA superhighway. What has he done to resist Obama'suniversal health care proposals? Nothing! What has he done to protect thecitizens of Texas against an emerging Police State? Nothing! What has hedone to fight illegal immigration? Nothing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a result of both Rick Perry's establishment business-as-usual politics inTexas and the proliferating grassroots Tea Party movement, counterattackingestablishment politics, a Tea Partier herself has entered the race for Texasgovernor. Her name is Debra Medina. As the Tea Party Nation in Texas alreadyknows, Medina is one of you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medina is committed to preserving Texas' independence and sovereignty. Sheis opposed to the Patriot Act. She will secure the Texas border. She willgive Texas Vermont-style open carry freedoms for gun owners. She wants toget rid of unconstitutional property taxes in Texas. She will stop the NAFTAsuperhighway. Medina is the real deal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what did Sarah Palin do? She went to Texas and endorsed Rick Perry! I'msorry, ladies and gentlemen, playing political games in order to rake inhundreds of thousands of dollars on the speaking and book-signing circuitsis not what the Tea Parties are all about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tea Parties are supposed to be about putting principle over politics,supporting and defending the US Constitution, supporting limited governmentand personal liberty, getting rid of the Federal Reserve, abolishing theIRS, ending preemptive and pervasive wars, and putting truth and integrityback into government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't get me wrong; there are things about Sarah Palin that I like. Iespecially appreciate her pro-life and pro-Second Amendment stands. I alsoappreciate her signing the Alaska State sovereignty resolution while she wasgovernor. By all indications, she did a good job as Alaska's chiefexecutive. At the national level, however, she favors the Patriot Act--andeven wants to expand it. She supported the banker bailouts. And when itcomes to foreign policy issues, Palin is just another neocon. Plus, as withmost Republicans at the national level, I think she is clueless about theNWO. And please remember, it was Mr. New World Order himself, HenryKissinger, who vetted Palin on behalf of McCain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Tea Party Nation should expect better!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Nation also needs to be careful about Glenn Beck. He says many of theright things. He is likeable and charismatic; but he's also dead wrong on anumber of issues--issues that are critical to the Tea Party Nation. He'sdead wrong when he attempts to disparage and impugn Congressman Ron Paul,saying Dr. Paul is a "crazy, kooky guy." He's dead wrong in supporting thebanker bailouts. He's dead wrong when he supports raising taxes (which hehas done on several occasions). He was dead wrong when he supported thePatriot Act. He is dead wrong when he viciously attacks the 9/11 victims'families who demand further information about what happened to their lovedones on that fateful day. And he is dead wrong when he mocks people such asAlan Keyes and Joe Farah for demanding that Barack Obama release his birthcertificate--if he indeed has one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now I hear that there are some self-professed members of the Tea PartyNation who are actually running for Congressman Paul's US House seat inTexas. If this is not a sign that establishment Republicans are hijackingthe Tea Party movement, I don't know what is. Remember, the Tea Partymovement began as a support base for the Ron Paul Revolution back in 2007.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I strongly encourage the Tea Party faithful to read Jane Hamsher's recentcolumn on this subject:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jane-hamsher/will-palin-and-the-neocon_b_456824.html"&gt;Important article from Jane Hamsher&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;I say again, be careful, Tea Party Nation. You are being infiltrated. Youare being compromised. You are being neutered. Stick to your principles.Stick with the Constitution. Keep opposing unconstitutional, preemptivewars. Keep calling for the abolition of the Federal Reserve. Keep fightingfor less taxes, reduced federal spending, and states' rights. Keep opposingthe Patriot Act and the New World Order. Don't abandon Ron Paul. Be wary ofpeople such as Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck. You don't need "big name"celebrities to give you credibility. As Samson's strength depended onkeeping his hair uncut, your strength lies in keeping your principlesintact. And unless you want to wind up like the Republican freshmen in 1994,avoid Newt Gingrich like the plague!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-4652492760541024559?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/4652492760541024559/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/warning-to-tea-party-nation.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4652492760541024559'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4652492760541024559'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/warning-to-tea-party-nation.html' title='A Warning To The Tea Party Nation'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-4373024807325369166</id><published>2010-02-10T07:08:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-02-10T07:27:11.216-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Alex Jones on Sarah Palin and the illusion of change</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Some of you won't like this but as it stands now this country won't get any better if Republicans take back the government. Both parties are controlled by the elite and they are taking over the tea parties. We had better get ourselves out of this false left-right paradigm and really investigate who we support for our elected officials. Unless we do that, we will continue the tyrannical policies already in place, and they will expand.

Can you not see that by turning a blind eye to unconstitutional government by your side, and then complaining about it when the other (so called side) side is in charge changes nothing, and we are still in this mess. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-pLGlp5cRZc&amp;amp;rel=0&amp;amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-pLGlp5cRZc&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-4373024807325369166?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/4373024807325369166/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/alex-jones-on-sarah-palin-and-illusion.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4373024807325369166'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4373024807325369166'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/02/alex-jones-on-sarah-palin-and-illusion.html' title='Alex Jones on Sarah Palin and the illusion of change'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-2270740118743847797</id><published>2010-02-06T13:10:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-02-06T13:24:14.806-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Ron Paul Warns of Social Unrest and Martial Law and how the American Citizen Becomes a Terrorist part 3</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Congressman Paul simply breaks down how "We The People" become the enemy of a out of control government.

Now on the flip side of the coin comes a new executive order from Obama and a TSA head man who admits he wants to target Christians. You see all of this police state creation is not set up to protect but to enslave you. We have been on a incremental pace to a complete hard core tyrannical controlled society that best can be described as slavery. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Most of us are too caught up into everyday affairs to notice. One day we will wake up and say how did this happen. I am sorry to offend you but this is a short and blunt reason why: Because we have become soft, lazy, selfish, and have no guts to stand up, and demand our rights, and hold our elected officials accountable, and to know what the constitution actually says. It is our fault. We have let revisionists rewrite American History and that is what our children are taught. The constitution is just a document that they use to do anything they want. They use excuses to make it mean what ever they want, like it is a living document. But when someone opposite of them use the same tactic they contradict themselves and say it means what it says. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Here is some articles and links that hits home. We should listen and then consider what have we become as a nation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#003300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Obama Expands Federal Power Over the States with Executive Order&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Obama has issued another executive order, this time establishing a so-called “Council of Governors.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The order, signed on January 11, further diminishes the sovereignty of the states and builds on a framework for possible martial law. The executive order was completely ignored by the corporate media.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 1822 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-181), and in order to strengthen further the partnership between the Federal Government and State governments to protect our Nation and its people and property,” the order reads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Council shall meet at the call of the Secretary of Defense or the Co-Chairs of the Council to exchange views, information, or advice with the Secretary of Defense; the Secretary of Homeland Security; the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism; the Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement; the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas’ Security Affairs; the Commander, United States Northern Command; the Chief, National Guard Bureau; the Commandant of the Coast Guard; and other appropriate officials of the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense, and appropriate officials of other executive departments or agencies as may be designated by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of Homeland Security.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other words, the Pentagon and Homeland Security will give hand-picked governors their marching orders under the guise of “synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States,” a direct violation of Posse Comitatus. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Full story &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/obama-expands-federal-power-over-the-states-with-executive-order/"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#006600;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Obama’s TSA Nominee Targets Anti-Government Christians&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;President Obama’s nominee to head the TSA and boss the naked body scanners now being installed at airports across the country says that white Christian “anti-government” types will be the primary target of suspicion for authorities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Former FBI agent Erroll Southers has been under scrutiny following Republican efforts to block his confirmation after it emerged Southers had abused his power to run a database check on his ex-wife’s new boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back in October, Southers told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee, both of whom voted on his confirmation, that he carried out the search because he was concerned for his wife and son. However, after the committees had approved him, Southers admitted that he had lied under oath by failing to reveal that he had personally conducted the search and had done so on more than one occasion, as well as sharing the information with the police (so they could harass the target of the search, according to the Ace of Spades blog).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Full story here &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/obamas-tsa-nominee-targets-anti-government-christians/"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8213588486307380269?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8213588486307380269/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/01/obama-executive-orders-tsa-homeland.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8213588486307380269'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8213588486307380269'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2010/01/obama-executive-orders-tsa-homeland.html' title='Obama, Executive Orders, TSA, Homeland Security: How Americans Become Terrorists Part II'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-1343665239245290825</id><published>2010-01-03T09:05:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-03T09:47:00.346-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Interpool and Secton 802 of the PATRIOT ACT: How the American Citizen becomes a Terrorist part 1</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;More and more troubling events coming out of the UN, and the Obama administration.

Now for the Interpol article.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The UN and Interpol How the UN will gain power&lt;br /&gt;By Barry Napier Wednesday, December 30, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is interesting that the man who cast aside the US Constitution like a rag, and imposes his own laws without consent, has agreed to allow an international police authority to overrule the US government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barack Obama signed an Executive Order giving express permission for Interpol to supersede the laws and police authorities of the USA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some have seen this as heralding loss of sovereignty. The truth is, the USA already lost it when it voted for Obama. Before the election he promised to hand over sovereignty to the UN, and this will indeed occur if the people allow him to carry on implementing his own Executive Orders without the consent of Congress or the people!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interpol&lt;br /&gt;Interpol operates with the consent of 188 member countries (so far). Its aim is to combat international crime and seek cross-country police cooperation. This is based on the “limits of existing laws in different countries and in the spirit of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights” (which has itself caused more mayhem than it is worth). Its constitution prohibits being involved in political, military, religious or racial conflict. Tell that to the fairies!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2005, Interpol briefed members of the UN’s Security Council Counter Terrorism Committee on its work to combat terrorism and its “growing cooperation with the UN in a range of anti-crime areas”. But, what is considered to be ‘crime’? Whatever the UN decides it will be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interpol has an office in the UN’s New York building. The links between Interpol and the UN are very strong, if not interwoven. Interpol spokesmen say that Interpol can give “teeth and real impact to Security Council Resolutions”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Interpol’s Article 2, Interpol is looking for “new opportunities” to expand its operations within the UN. In other words, Interpol is to be the police eyes and ears of the UN worldwide. Doesn’t this sound rather familiar? (If it doesn’t, read up on Soviet KGB operations). Remember, too, that anti-environmentalism is being called ‘terrorism’.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interpol has a worldwide anti-terrorism network. Yet, Obama is nestling up to terrorist organisations and countries. This means that the central theme of ‘terrorism’ will change dramatically under Obama. Also, Obama is planning to make the owning of small arms illegal, effectively making US people defenceless, not just before criminals but also before government. Interpol will be used to discover and arrest those who own small arms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another aim of Interpol is to provide support for UN peacekeeping missions. Anyone who knows the truth recognises that these UN peacekeeping missions are anything but! They are killing sprees, with UN troops at the helm, making sure Marxist regimes stay in power, or gain power. How can Interpol claim neutrality when it assists UN troops in murderous ‘peacekeeping’?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is of prime importance when Interpol says that another area of crime it wishes to obliterate is “Genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity”. Yet, the UN Charter includes the notion of genocide, its troops are guilty of war crimes, and the UN says that anti-greens are acting against humanity!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anti-Greens are ‘Criminals’&lt;br /&gt;According to Interpol, “Environmental crime is a serious and growing international problem… it is not limited to criminals polluting the air, water and land and pushing commercially valuable wildlife species closer to extinction; it can also include crimes which speed up climate change… and exhaust essential natural resources.” What did Interpol say about not being involved in politics?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Very clearly, Interpol is working behind the scenes to identify ‘criminals’ who oppose climate change plans by the UN! Can’t you see what is going on? Can’t you see that we are seeing the creation of a Marxist regime far greater than the Soviets could have dreamt of? Far greater than the one now existing in China?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interpol speaks of these ‘crimes’ as being harmful to the economy and security… blatant political propaganda dressed up in police uniforms! What has a police organisation got to do with the economy? The economy is to do with politics!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The organisation says that organised crime is behind anti-green activities. This tells us which way Obama and the UN are moving to silence their foes. “In this way we can contribute to the ongoing conservation of the world’s environment, biodiversity and natural resources.” This is nothing but police being used as the strong-arm men of the UN to silence anti-green activity. What has a police organisation to do with ‘conservation’ and ‘natural resources’? Nothing! But, under the UN, Interpol will make very sure people like me are eliminated. (Of course, before that, they will ensure that our names are ridiculed and our protests are muffled, which works just as well).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One must ask Interpol why it doesn’t investigate the CRU at East Anglia University, or other scientists about their fraud, or Greenpeace about its sabotage… or Obama and Brown taxing the people fraudulently.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Corruption undermines political, social and economic stability”. In which case, why isn’t Interpol investigating every country involved in the recent Copenhagen Summit, or that imposes tax based on fraudulent green claims? It is evident that Interpol is not genuine!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;UN and ‘Natural partners’ (un.org 11th October, 2009)&lt;br /&gt;The UN already has its own police force (UNPOL) – did you know that? But, Interpol will take precedence. The UN’s Secretary General says that the “only way to succeed is to join forces.” Succeed at what? The UN has no place in the world, but it acts anyway! Wherever it goes it creates, not reduces, conflict, often to the point of murder, rape and pillage… and I am taking here about UN troops.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The UN Security Council, supposed to look after peace and reduce tensions, is dominated by Islamic countries that hate Israel. Every meeting starts with hateful statements against Israel. Every meeting begins with demands to sanction Israel. Therefore, Interpol is part of this hate campaign against the Israeli nation, by siding with Islamic extremist governments who make their own ‘laws’ against Israel! What you think of Israel is not the issue. The real issue is that if the UN gets away with this, the next one to suffer could easily be YOU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Singapore Summit&lt;br /&gt;On 11th October, 2009, Interpol’s Secretary General met with the UN’s Secretary General in Singapore. In the meeting praise was given to police forces joining together to fight organised crimes worldwide. This is fine. But, they don’t need the UN for this! The UN is a Marxist organisation, corrupt and trouble-making.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The opening speech spoke of a new era when Interpol will work with the UN by “entering into a strategic partnership to promote state stability, and, in turn, global law and order.” Police forces can do this on their own – they don’t need the sticky fingers of the UN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Law officers are seconded to Interpol for particular operations, so, in theory, there are no actual ‘Interpol officers’. But, with the USA being handed over to the UN by Obama, it makes no real difference – the UN will control what local officers, FBI, etc., do. UN Dispatch.com (23rd December) says that all this is just ‘fear mongering’. Is it? Given Obama’s lamentable record in his first year of office (assuming he is there legitimately, of course), we have every right to be concerned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Norwegian UN mission (Norway-un.org 16th April 2009) states: “the role of the police is considered pivotal in consolidating peace and building sustainable security.” Perhaps Norway should go back a few years and remember how this worked when Hitler decided to make his land-grab! In every country Hitler took, the ‘pivotal’ force was the national and local police forces. They made sure Nazi plans were adhered to, and arrested anyone who didn’t make the grade, often leading to their deaths. Fear mongering?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No, it is a step closer to “common goals of global security and peace”. The best peace we can have is to retain national borders and national policing. The worst move is to bring in the UN and its notion of Marxist world government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secretary General of Secrecy&lt;br /&gt;It is no coincidence that this joining of the UN and Interpol should come under the Secretary-Generalship of Ronald K Noble. He is a tenured professor of law at New York University, and previously worked as the US Dept of Treasury as First Undersecretary for Enforcement. He has held many law-related positions in the US and has Obama’s right hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This man is complicit in the aim of Obama to keep documents from the sight of Americans, by claiming protection for Interpol officers who are now able to work with diplomatic immunity. Thus, any documents Obama wants hidden can simply be given to Interpol! In this way Obama jumps over the head of the Constitution, and Interpol are not held to the Freedom of Information Act. This is all going on underneath your noses! I wonder if this is where Obama’s birth certificate will be going?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During Hitler’s time, Interpol was under the command of the SS. (Freedomswings.wordpress.com). The FBI sought membership of Interpol in 1938, despite it being riddled with, and ruled by, the SS. Thus, today, only the type of socialism has changed… Interpol is now under Marxist rule. The continued membership of the USA in Interpol, and the new status of Interpol as diplomatic, with immunity, means that Obama can operate under the radar as much as he likes, by placing documents with Interpol. And Interpol can be used as the bully-boys of state, with no come-backs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interpol will work alongside the UN’s stormtroopers, as enforcers of UN laws and whims. It has immunity in the USA – no doubt it will gain immunity in many more countries as they mimic Obama’s duplicity. They will investigate and arrest any who dare to oppose UN policies, whether social, criminal or economic, including anti-greens.

He knows that our First Amendment rights have become a joke, that habeas corpus no longer exists and that we torture, not only in black sites such as those at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan or at Guantánamo Bay, but also at the federal Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in Lower Manhattan. Hashmi is a U.S. citizen of Muslim descent imprisoned on two counts of providing and conspiring to provide material support and two counts of making and conspiring to make a contribution of goods or services to al-Qaida. As his case prepares for trial, his plight illustrates that the gravest threat we face is not from Islamic extremists, but the codification of draconian procedures that deny Americans basic civil liberties and due process. Hashmi would be a better person to tell you this, but he is not allowed to speak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is my attempted to jar you out of your programing. We should be on guard. Our government has done this before using situations to erode our freedoms. It is called problem, reaction, solution. It also spells trouble for freedom and liberty. Get ready for freedom robbing legislation coming from Congress, and the Administration. If you fall for this trick then you will get what you asked for but the problem is I will be there with you. If this is not staged then this is being used against us freedom loving Americans. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8814016785333318788?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8814016785333318788/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/12/recent-terror-attack-fits-mold-of.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8814016785333318788'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8814016785333318788'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/12/recent-terror-attack-fits-mold-of.html' title='Recent Terror Attack fits the mold of staged event for more control'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-8182461306758515559</id><published>2009-12-28T16:24:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-28T16:52:06.939-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Those who give up Liberty for Security Deserve Neither</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Prophetic words from a founding father of these United States of America.

Sounds and looks kinda fishy to me my friends. This does two things. 1. it takes the heat off congress and the senate forging the two versions of health care bill into one (that the American people don't want anyway.) 2. Another excuse by the federal government to erode our freedoms and rights as United States Citizens. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;So get ready for the scare tactics and more so-called solutions to get you and I to give up our freedoms for so-called security. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;What am I saying. I am saying that this is a staged event. The terrorist was even turned in by his father. They used this terrorist for their (the globalists elite) political and tyrannical gain. Their is no way that with all the security precautions in place that this should have happened. Their is only one answer, it was allowed to happen to scare and manipulate the American People. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Here are some articles that back up my claims:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/terror-and-tyranny-the-tnt-approach-for-2010/"&gt;Terror and Tyranny: the TNT Approach for 2010&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/bathroom-visits-now-considered-potential-terrorism/"&gt;Bathroom Visits Now Considered Potential Terrorism &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/man-videotaped-underwear-bomber-on-flight-253/"&gt;Man Videotaped Underwear Bomber On Flight 253 &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/napolitano-sheepishly-acknowledges-security-system-failed/"&gt;Napolitano Sheepishly Acknowledges Security System Failed &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/al-cia-duh-claims-responsibility-for-fudged-underwear-bombing/"&gt;Al-CIA-Duh Claims Responsibility for Fudged Underwear Bombing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8182461306758515559?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8182461306758515559/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/12/those-who-give-up-liberty-for-security.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8182461306758515559'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8182461306758515559'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/12/those-who-give-up-liberty-for-security.html' title='Those who give up Liberty for Security Deserve Neither'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-6654560909350026804</id><published>2009-12-23T12:42:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-23T13:16:13.279-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Health Care Bill Is A Huge Tax Heist</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;This sums it up. We who don't want it are going to get it and those who are drinking to kool-aid are being sold a bill of goods. No, not a bill of goods, but a mother load of new taxes on top of the existing taxes on the American people. I smell something in the air and it is not a good smell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Boston Globe analysis identifies at least 19 new taxes in Obamacare legislation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul Joseph Watson&lt;br /&gt;Prison Planet.com&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday, December 22, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Boston Globe analysis of the health care bill which Democrats are trying to ram through before Christmas illustrates how the legislation is a gigantic tax heist which will further economically cripple Americans already laboring under the worst financial crisis since the great depression.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;H.R. 3590 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which is set to be voted on by the Senate on Christmas Eve, contains a raft of pork barrel and tax hikes. The legislation has not even been read in full by many of the representatives eager to make it the law, including fervent advocate John Kerry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“While it would take days to read the entire bill, my cursory review of the legislation identified at least 19 tax increases,” writes the Globe’s Jamie Downey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chief amongst those tax hikes is the one outlined in Section 1501 – Requirement to maintain minimum essential coverage. Individuals who don’t maintain mandatory health insurance will face an annual tax penalty of $750, an amount set to escalate even higher in future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Section 9013 reduces the amount that can be deducted as expenses for people incurring significant health costs. This will directly impact the living standards of individuals already struggling under the burden of long-term illnesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With income taxes already on the increase to pay for the mass looting of the American taxpayer in the form of the multi-trillion dollar bailout, with the highest rate already increasing by 3.6 percent, a further tax on Medicare will be imposed on individuals making in excess of $200,000 and married couples making over $250,000 under Section 9015.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Had enough yet? But wait there is more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The government will also collect a new 5 percent tax on voluntary cosmetic procedures under Section 9017. Since in other state-run health care systems, such as Canada, “voluntary procedures” is a term also applied to people with life-threatening conditions who sometimes have to wait 18 months to get treatment, the eventual scope of this new tax can only be imagined.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the new taxes on individuals are bad enough, the penalties imposed on pharmaceutical corporations, health insurers and employers are perhaps worse because the tax hikes will undoubtedly passed on to the general public in the form of higher costs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Section 9008 imposes an annual fee on branded prescription pharmaceutical manufacturers and importers, which equates to a a $2.3 billion excise tax on the pharmaceutical industry based on market share starting immediately. Prescription drugs, which will not be free for Americans under “free” health care, will soar in cost as a result of this new tax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Section 9009 imposes a $2 billion excise tax on the medical device industry. This will increase the cost of life-saving technology and equipment, meaning hospitals will buy fewer devices, meaning longer waiting lists for vital treatment and more deaths as a result of these delays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An annual excise tax of $6.7 billion on health insurance providers under Section 9010 will also jack up prices.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“How can the imposition of $11 billion in excise taxes (section 9008, 9009 and 9010) on the health care industry reduce costs to consumers?

I was raised in a devout, churchgoing Christian home. I have been in Gospel ministry all of my adult life (I am 57 years old). I have attended or have degrees and/or diplomas from 4 fundamentalist/evangelical colleges or Bible schools. I have been the Senior Pastor of a local Independent Baptist congregation for 34 years and counting. I have spoken in churches and Christian gatherings all over the country. I say all of that simply to provide my Christian credentials (in much the same way that the Apostle Paul provided his Jewish credentials in Philippians 3:5,6). As such, I believe I know something about the attitudes, conduct, philosophy, mindset, etc., of America's Christians. I am not an outsider; I speak as one within the conservative/fundamentalist Christian camp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As it relates to the rightful understanding of following Christ's instruction that we are to be "salt" and "light" (and what that means for us Americans), and properly rendering to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's (and knowing the difference), there are basically 2 groups: those who sincerely want to help America maintain its foundational principles and those who, frankly, are too preoccupied (or cowardly) to give much thought to it one way or another. I would say that the first group is slightly larger than the second group. The problem is, among the first group, there is a vast void of understanding regarding exactly how we are to implement and carry forth the principles of Christian liberty--which are the principles upon which America was built, of course.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I see it, there are two glaring obstacles that keep today's Christians from being truly effectual and influential in helping to restore America's freedoms and founding principles. And let's be honest enough to admit that, for the most part, today's Christians (including our pastors) are ineffective and irrelevant in providing any meaningful solutions to America's many problems. Sadly, more often than not, we are little more than gullible pawns, which wily and wicked politicians use to advance their own nefarious agendas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obstacle Number One: America's current generation of Christians has allowed itself to become pathetically ignorant as to the Biblical, Natural Law principles of liberty and government. And when it comes to America's historical principles of self-government and federalism, the ignorance quotient goes up even further.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is really sad: we Christians (including our Christian pastors) know virtually nothing of real American history, law, government, etc. For example, I'm not sure that we can begin to remotely understand what Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence if we have not read John Locke's Second Treatise of Government. I'm not sure we can begin to comprehend the American philosophy of government if we have not read George Washington's Farewell Address. Without reading The Federalist Papers, one cannot begin to properly appreciate the US Constitution and the principles upon which it was predicated. Without reading Pastor Jonas Clark, one cannot understand what really happened at Lexington Green and Concord Bridge. Without reading Alexander Stephens' History of the United States, it is doubtful that one can truly understand or appreciate the principles of federalism and State sovereignty. And how many of us have read even one of the above? And this does not even scratch the surface of necessary knowledge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's admit it: today's Christians, for the most part, are operating in a vacuum of truth and understanding. Without a firm grasp of necessary truth, how can we know what to do, who to believe, or how to act?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Accordingly, smooth-talking "conservative" politicians who know how to use religious clichés and terminology to gain our support and votes easily dupe the vast majority of sincere Christians. But it is actually worse than that. We Christians are, for the most part, unwitting contributors to the demise of freedom and rise of oppression in our land.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example, Americans--including Christian Americans--lost more freedoms under former President George W. Bush than under any President since Lyndon Johnson, or maybe since Franklin Roosevelt. Yet, even today, most evangelical Christians continue to hold Bush in high esteem. They seem to be totally oblivious to the fact that Bush set the table and provided the opportunities for virtually everything that President Barack Obama is currently doing to advance socialism and globalism in our country. For the most part, Christians seemed to never notice that President Bush did almost nothing to change the course and direction set by his predecessor, President Bill Clinton. And liberals are just now beginning to wake up to the reality that, at the executive level, Obama is doing precious little to change the course set by George Bush--including escalating Bush's war (now Obama's war) in the Middle East. Will the American people never awaken to the fact that, for the most part, the only difference between these two parties at the national level is one of degrees, not direction?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the national level, Democrats want to expand Big Government for the benefit of advancing the Welfare State, while Republicans want to expand Big Government for the benefit of advancing the Warfare State, but both want to expand Big Government. Make no mistake about it: neither major party in Washington, D.C., has any intention of returning America to the constitutional principles of limited government and federalism. But do Christians see this? No, they do not!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the most part, today's Christians seem to have the attitude that G.O.P. stands for God's Own Party. That the Republican Party in Washington, D.C., is equally culpable for the destruction of liberty and constitutional government never seems to once enter their minds. The sum total of their patriotism seems to be voting Republican, watching Fox News, and paying taxes. The shallowness of today's pastors and Christians is a major obstacle preventing us from doing much of anything that would actually contribute to good government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obstacle Number Two: Today's Christians are not willing to support the principles they profess to believe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could not count the number of times that a sincere Christian brother or sister has asked me, "What is wrong with my pastor? Why does he refuse to take a stand?" or questions to that effect. Dear Christian Friend, as kindly as I know how to say it, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I ask you, Why should your pastor "take a stand"? Why should he "get involved"? You and all the others of his congregation are more than willing to support his ministry the way it is. You sit under his preaching. You follow his leadership in the church. You give your tithes and offerings to support his vision for God's work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look around you. What do you see? You see the Joel Osteen-type churches bulging out at the seams. Churches--where pastors are unwilling to get involved in anything "controversial," where pastors are content to stay completely disengaged from anything that might be deemed "political," and where pastors refuse to even hear the truth of what is really going on--are filled every Sunday. They have the largest crowds, biggest offerings, and most ornate buildings. Why, in the name of common sense, would you expect your pastor to "take a stand" or "get involved"? Why should he? You have--by your support, attendance, and offerings--clearly told him that you like him just the way he is!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet, throughout history, it has been pastors and preachers that have led the great civil movements and revolutions--including our own American Revolution. It is no hyperbole to say that without the leadership, courage, and resolve of Colonial America's clergymen, we would still be a Crown colony of England, with no Declaration of Independence, no US Constitution, no Bill of Rights, and little freedom. And, it's not like we do not have the same kind of lionhearted preachers today as we did in days of old, because we do. All across America, there are hundreds of Bible preaching men from virtually every Christian denomination who are more than willing to "take a stand" and "get involved." As an example, go to my Black Regiment list and see the names of over 200 pastors who are out front in the fight for right. The problem is, the vast majority of America's Christians today will not support these stalwart spiritual statesmen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See the Black Regiment list at:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.chuckbaldwinlive.com/blackregiment.php&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, Christian friend, why do you continue to worship under the leadership of a pastor who has no intention of standing in the gap for our country's freedom? Why do you continue to give your tithes and offerings to such a church? It is time for Christians who know and care about what is going on to GET OUT of these spineless churches! If you really believe the principles you profess, how can you continue to deny those principles by staying in a church that has no intention of teaching those principles?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you cannot find a patriot-pastor of your denomination, look for one outside your denomination. I would rather worship with a man with whom I disagree on secondary doctrines (but who is firm on the fundamentals, of course), but who is willing to stand for truth and freedom, than worship with a man of my preferred denomination, but who will do nothing to confront the evils that are currently destroying our republic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good grief! We have thousands of evangelical pastors who are willing to follow a man such as Rick Warren; a man who has become a partner with one of the most devilish and sinister organizations in the world--an organization that is actively working against the principles of freedom and independence, and in support of the principles of globalism and universalism: the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, it was Rear Admiral Chester Ward, former Judge Advocate General of the Navy, who rightly said, "The main purpose of the Council on Foreign Relations is promoting the disarmament of U.S. sovereignty and national independence and submergence into an all-powerful, one world government." Most Christians readily discern any attempt at global government to be "of the devil." Yet, Rick Warren is now an active member of the one organization whose major claim to fame is its incessant promotion of globalism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can any sincere Christian who is even remotely aware of what is going on--and who truly cares about the preservation of freedom--follow any pastor who follows someone such as Rick Warren? Yet, the Warren-type churches are flourishing all over America; and, at the same time, many of those congregants complain that their pastor is not "taking a stand."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, why don't YOU take a stand by GETTING OUT of these soft, straddling, sugary, superficial, shallow, saltless churches?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is infinitely more important that you be in a church that preaches the truth and takes a stand than that your teens attend "the most exciting youth program," or that your kids are in one of these glorified playgrounds (called "children's ministries") so they can play games and stay entertained, or that your church has a softball team, or that it has the prettiest buildings, or that it has music you think is "just right," or that it is the "premier church in town" for social gatherings or business contacts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you live near Phoenix, Arizona, why not attend Pastor Coleman's church, 35th Avenue Baptist Church? If you live near Three Rivers, California, why not attend The Church of Kaweah, which is pastored by Warren Mark Campbell? If you live near Fort Myers, Florida, why not support Pastor James Riddle at Morningstar Baptist Church? If you live near Savannah, Georgia, why not support Pastor John Weaver's Dominion Ministry? If you live near Ocean Springs, Mississippi, why not help Pastor John Mayfield's Chapel of Faith? If you live near Kalispell, Montana, why not support Pastor Jim Huff and Bible Presbyterian Church? If you live near Omaha, Nebraska, why not support Pastor Phillip Kayser and Dominion Covenant Church? If you live in the Oklahoma City area why not help Pastor Jason Murphy at New Life Church in Collinsville, or Pastor Paul Blair at Fairview Baptist Church in Edmond, or Dr. Steve Kern and Olivet Baptist Church in Oklahoma City? If you live near Greenville, South Carolina, why not help Pastor Tony Romo at South Pointe Baptist Church in Pelzer, or Pastor Mark Dibler at Bible Baptist Church in Pickens. If you live near Madisonville/Athens/Etowah, Tennessee, why not support Pastor Jim Headings at the Piney Grove Community Church in Englewood? Daniel New has a home church in Hamilton County, Texas. Clell Drumheller pastors Truth in Love Ministries in northwest Houston. Why not support Pastor Brandon Teague at Faith Baptist Church in Paris, Texas? Pastor Butch Paugh is a patriot-pastor in Nettie, West Virginia. Pastor Wayne Sedlak is a patriot-pastor who ministers at Reformation Hope Church in West Bend, Wisconsin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are only a handful of the hundreds of dynamic patriot-pastors across America who are truly "taking a stand." Ask yourself, what could the Church do if, instead of Rick Warren and Joel Osteen, men like those listed above pastored churches that numbered in the tens of thousands? Imagine what could happen if Black Regiment-type churches were the largest churches in a majority of the great metropolises throughout America?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I say again (as kindly as I know how): if you stay in, support, attend, and give your offerings to these churches that are pastored by men who will not take a stand, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And though I would prefer that everyone have a local church they could support in good conscience, there are hundreds of people across America who, because they cannot find such a church, worship online with me and my church every Sunday morning, as we Livestream our service. We do this specifically for those who cannot find a church that will take a stand in their area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To tune in to our Livestreamed service each Sunday morning at approximately 10:30am (CST), go to:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://crossroadbaptist.net/live.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Christians today are to regain any semblance of relevancy in preserving America's liberties, they must do two things: (1) immediately become acquainted with the foundational principles that created this country, and (2) get serious about supporting only those churches and ministries that truly know what's going on and are willing to courageously stand in the gap. Anything short of this is pious-sounding rhetoric. And rhetoric will do nothing to help us--not now, anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.

We must think critically about the way our country has been going over the last two decades. He breaks it down for us so get out of your false left-right paradigm and consider what is written here and what has been rolling on in our country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#006600;"&gt;Homeland Security or Homeland Enslavement&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#006600;"&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#006600;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By Chuck Baldwin&lt;br /&gt;Published 12/02/09&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By now, most readers are familiar with the story of how a Virginia couple, Michaele and Tareq Salahi, crashed the White House State Dinner last Tuesday evening. President and Mrs. Obama were entertaining Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in the first official State Dinner of the new administration. The Salahis were not on the invited guest list, but were still allowed to walk right into the White House. They even had face-to-face conversations with both President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden. Photographs of the Salahis with the President and Vice President have been published in numerous newspapers and on hundreds of web sites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if the American people are thinking this episode through? Think of it: in the post-9/11 world, a world that has invented the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), body scanners, retina readers, the Patriot Act, hundreds of laws and regulations restricting the freedoms and liberties of the American people, thousands of cameras photographing our public movements, and satellite spy devices, a couple can walk right into the White House and meet the President and Vice President without being invited!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is there something wrong with this picture, or what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I well remember what I had to go through when I was an invited guest of then-Vice President George H. W. Bush at the White House. My wife and I joined several others for a luncheon with Vice President Bush and his wife, Barbara. Later that day, we were in a crowd of several hundred who got to meet President Ronald Reagan. Needless to say, security was tight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Upon arriving, we had to show the proper credentials to White House security, along with a photo ID and the personal invitation that had been sent to us ahead of time. I remember how some of the folks who had actually received invitations were denied entrance due to bureaucratic mix-ups or unintentional lapses in proper protocols. And these were people who really did have an invitation to be there. I can tell you this: there was absolutely no way that an uninvited person could have gained access to the White House that day. And remember: that was nearly two decades BEFORE 9/11!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That an uninvited couple could be granted access to the President and Vice President in this day and time is more than a "fluke." It betrays something much deeper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the last 8 years, the American people have been told they must sacrifice certain liberties in order that the federal government might protect them. And for the most part, the American people have been happy to accommodate this incessant intrusion into their personal liberties. They know the feds are monitoring their emails, personal phone conversations, and even their personal letters when received from overseas. They have sat silently as their banking institutions have monitored and reported virtually any and all financial transactions to the federal government. In today's super-security world, one cannot even cash a check without showing the bank teller his or her driver's license, which is recorded and made available to the feds. Sometimes, we are even required to provide our thumbprints. Beyond that, even certain service personnel that must come into our homes to provide in-home repair services, home inspections, or general services are often required to report what they see to various law enforcement authorities. All of this is done in the name of "national security."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the while, America's federal buildings today more resemble castles of ancient Europe than they do buildings that house the people's servants. Concrete barriers along with super-reinforced, "bomb proof" structures remind one of castles of old, with their guard towers and crocodile-filled moats. Today, people must walk through metal-detectors and surrender their pocketknives to even visit their local supervisor of elections office (or just about any other public office, for that matter). Again, this is all done under the rubric of "homeland security."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the name of "national security," veterans who have been accused of some kind of domestic disturbance or who have affirmatively answered an ambiguous question on a VA form regarding whether they have feelings of "anger" or "depression" are having their right to keep and bear arms stripped away. That's right, in the name of "homeland security," some of the very men who were entrusted with lethal weapons to fight America's wars are now being told they are not fit to purchase or possess their own firearms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet, in spite of all of the above, an uninvited couple is allowed to calmly walk right past Secret Service personnel and have personal audiences with the President and Vice President of the United States in what is ostensibly the most heavily-guarded, tightly secured building in the country: the White House.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Furthermore, this story comes on the heels of the mass shooting on what one would think would be a rather secure location: the US Army base at Fort Hood, Texas. And, have we forgotten the fellow who brought a gun into the Capitol Building (the home of the US Congress) in Washington, D.C., a few years ago and killed two police officers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Reader, ask yourself this question, Do you really think those schmucks in Washington, D.C., actually believe that protecting you and me is more important than protecting American soldiers, US congressmen, and especially the President of the United States? "Are you serious?" (To quote Nancy Pelosi.) The truth is, to the elites in DC, you and I are expendable commodities. In fact, to some of the soulless creatures running things, you and I are worth more dead than alive (but that's a topic better discussed at a later date).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The point is, all this talk about "national security" is simply a ruse for Big Government elitists to steal our liberties and make slaves out of us. They don't care about security; all they care about is POWER.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the next time you are required to be strip-searched by an airport screener, or to surrender your pocketknife at your local county commissioner's office, or to show your driver's license to your bank teller, or to submit to a random police checkpoint; the next time you make a phone call that you know is monitored by a federal agent (and they all are), or drive under a video camera, or visit these castle-esque federal buildings, remember Michaele and Tareq Salahi. And, if you are old enough, remember the time in America when we really were the "land of the free." And also remember that it's not security they seek--it's the abolition of our liberty. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8406701619907569796?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8406701619907569796/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/12/homeland-security-or-homeland.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8406701619907569796'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8406701619907569796'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/12/homeland-security-or-homeland.html' title='Homeland Security or Homeland Enslavement?'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-3384562980510859140</id><published>2009-12-01T20:46:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-02T10:15:48.826-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Bombshell UN Documents Outline Plan To Use Climategate Crooks In “End Run” Around National Sovereignty</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;In this article by Mr. Watson sums up the agenda behind "Global Warming."

Warnings from one of the insiders in this article from &lt;a href="http://www.moneynews.com/streettalk/soros_economy/2009/11/25/291090.html?s=al&amp;amp;promo_code=923A-1"&gt;Newsmax&lt;/a&gt;. Pay attention to what Mr. Soros says. Here is some examples:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;“In commercial real estate and leveraged buyouts, the bloodletting is yet to come,” Soros said in a speech in Europe, reported by Bloomberg News&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;"These factors will continue to weigh on the American economy, and the American consumer will no longer be able to serve as the motor for the world economy.” &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Soros reckons that, given these facts, the global economic recovery is “liable to run out of steam” and that a “double-dip” recession may emerge in 2011. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;So all of that jobless recovery talk is just pure nonsense. We had all better be prepared we are in for some hard times. Look for the commercial real estate bubble to burst soon. The American worker won't be able to be the engine of the economy because all of our industrial and manufacturing jobs are being kicked over seas. Mr. Soros knows another dip is coming because he is in the know and I will leave you to ponder about that one until more happens. It is no mistake that he is saying these things.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Wednesday, November 25, 2009 5:10 PM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By: Gene J. Koprowski Article Font Size&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Billionaire George Soros believes a “bloodletting” may be in the offing for leveraged buyout firms (LBOs) and commercial real estate investors amid the worst economy in seven decades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“In commercial real estate and leveraged buyouts, the bloodletting is yet to come,” Soros said in a speech in Europe, reported by Bloomberg News.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“These factors will continue to weigh on the American economy, and the American consumer will no longer be able to serve as the motor for the world economy.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bankers across the globe have accounted for $1.66 trillion of write downs and write-offs on bad loans since the start of the credit crisis in 2007.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moody’s Investors Service reports that the global speculative default rate will peak at 12.5 percent this quarter as the U.S. and European economies struggle. The rate rose to 12 percent in the third quarter, up from 2.8 percent a year earlier, Moody’s reports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s nearly 10 percent in just 12 months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soros reckons that, given these facts, the global economic recovery is “liable to run out of steam” and that a “double-dip” recession may emerge in 2011.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Others agree that a double-dip recession may hit soon, but for other reasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, a Nobel Prize winner, says that the double-digit unemployment rate is undermining confidence, and not just in the financial industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With more suffering likely, the poor economic leadership of the world’s largest countries may cause a collapse of confidence among ordinary workers and businesses worldwide&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8304207277417149645?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8304207277417149645/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/soros-major-bloodletting-ahead.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8304207277417149645'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8304207277417149645'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/soros-major-bloodletting-ahead.html' title='Soros: Major Bloodletting Ahead'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-8142757376803832902</id><published>2009-11-29T20:54:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-29T21:01:51.397-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Turning Point: Couric Rips Obama</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Newsmax reports of Katie Couric attacking Obama. She slams him for no new ideas; that is because he is just a continuance of Bush. There should be little doubt that a agenda has been pushed upon the American people for several decades. Why they are beginning to attack Obama and allow the Republicans to say I told you so may be a planned event. Only then the Republicans can take control with conservative cover and accomplish things that the populace would not allow Obama to do. Think about that and ponder.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Katie Couric may be best known for her unflattering interview with Sarah Palin. But her nightly news broadcast this past Monday night may be an indicator that the big liberal media are now turning their guns on Obama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Couric said on “CBS Evening News” that Americans are growing “disenchanted” with Obama and are openly questioning his credibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Is the honeymoon over?” anchor Couric said at the beginning of her correspondent’s report.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Although President Obama has been in office less than a year, many Americans are growing disenchanted with his handling of the enormous problems he and the country are facing, from healthcare to unemployment to Afghanistan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“His poll numbers are sliding, and at least one poll shows his job approval rating has fallen, for the first time, below 50 percent.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Correspondent Chris Reid chimed in: “The president is getting battered on everything from the economy to foreign policy. Some polls show Americans are increasingly questioning his credibility.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The report asserted that while Obama talks about dealing with unemployment, which is over 10 percent and expected to rise, he has developed “no new ideas” for dealing with the problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CBS also cited a poll showing that only 14 percent of Americans believe Obama’s claim that healthcare reform won’t add to the budget deficit, and only 7 percent believe that the stimulus has created any jobs at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The report also criticized the president for being “indecisive” on Afghanistan, and for returning from his recent Asian trip “with little to show for it.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An expert was quoted as describing his trip as the “amateur hour,” as he did not line up agreements with foreign countries before venturing abroad. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8142757376803832902?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8142757376803832902/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/turning-point-couric-rips-obama.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8142757376803832902'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8142757376803832902'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/turning-point-couric-rips-obama.html' title='Turning Point: Couric Rips Obama'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-5219442190756885963</id><published>2009-11-27T21:28:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-27T21:43:06.878-06:00</updated><title type='text'>IMF Chief: Banks Hiding Half of Their Losses</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Some fear mongering for the banks to receive another bailout and loot the American people on more time is rearing its ugly head.

It cut its forecast for total global bank writedowns by 15 percent to $3.4 trillion in September, thanks to easing credit conditions and economic recovery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The IMF said then that U.S. banks have owned up to 60 percent of their losses, beating the 40 percent total in the Eurozone and the United Kingdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Probably a little more has been disclosed in the U.S. and a little less in Europe, but it’s almost half and half,” Strauss-Kahn said. “So, we still have a long way to go.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Independent bank analyst Meredith Whitney sees plenty of trouble ahead for banks. “The banks are still grossly overvalued,” she told Bloomberg.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“People are expecting something great to happen in 2010, and I think they are going to be severely disappointed.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;© 2009 Newsmax.

Who is the image of God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Food For Thought From The Chuckwagon&lt;br /&gt;My Thanksgiving Prayer&lt;br /&gt;By Chuck Baldwin November 24, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That first Thanksgiving in the fall of 1621 saw about 50 Mayflower Pilgrims and 100 native Indians come together for a celebration feast consisting of a variety of homegrown vegetables--including corn, squash, beans, barley, and peas--along with wild turkey and venison. The precise date is not known, but it is believed to have taken place in late October or early November. Historians record that the Massachusetts weather was crisp, but not cold--and the fall foliage dazzled America's newcomers with a cornucopia of color.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These Pilgrims were mostly "Separatists," who had left Europe to seek a land of liberty, where men could be free to worship God according to the dictates of their own conscience--not according to the demands of a State church or an oppressive government. They made their intentions and motivations clear when they signed America's first covenant, a document called The Mayflower Compact:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We whose names are underwritten . . . Having undertaken, for the Glory of God and advancement of the Christian faith . . ."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This undertaking had prompted them to leave their homes, livelihoods, families, friends, and way of life, and face a dangerous voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. Many became ill and some did not survive to see the new world. But they all believed that they were doing God's will and that He would honor their faith. And He certainly did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although the original Pilgrims had a few confrontations with the American Indians--some were even violent--for the most part, the Indians were friendly and accommodating. They taught the Pilgrims what crops to grow and how best to grow them. They helped them understand American agriculture and the ways of the wild game endemic to that part of North America. And by the time they held their first Thanksgiving banquet, the relationship between those original Pilgrims and Massasoit and his small tribe of Indians was one of genuine trust and friendship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God had, indeed, smiled upon the small band of Pilgrims. They had survived a long, treacherous journey across the ocean, had written the immortal Mayflower Compact, had built their homes and community, had established a civil body-politic, had successfully planted and harvested enough food to keep them through the winter, and had established peaceful relations with the native Indians.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Pilgrim Thanksgiving may have been the first such celebration, but it was far from the last.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not long after becoming America's first (and greatest) President, George Washington issued our country's first Thanksgiving Proclamation on October 3, 1789. In the proclamation, Washington wrote:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor . . .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be--That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks--for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation--for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war--for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed--for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted--for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions--to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually--to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed--to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord--To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us--and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Presidents ever since have likewise issued proclamations of thanksgiving exhorting the American people to humbly acknowledge the protection and blessing of Heaven upon our land. It is particularly appropriate that they would do this. After all, we Americans--of all people--have sufficient reason to give corporate thanks to Almighty God, as our Christian forebears founded this land for the express purpose of seeking religious liberty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The history of the world's nations is largely the story of one despot being replaced with another. Throughout the annals of human history, the story of human government is that of the rise and fall of one empire after another; one king or potentate after another. One dictatorship being replaced with another dictatorship. One form of monarchy replacing another form of monarchy. Some were kinder than others. Some were benevolent. Some were harsh. And some were downright cruel. But until July 4, 1776, there was no such thing as a nation founded on self-government, federalism, and religious liberty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the first time in world history, Christian people were granted a land of blessing and hope. In the human sense, America became to Christians what Canaan was to Old Testament Israel. In America, believers could live at peace with both their society and their government. They no longer had to choose between obeying their God and obeying their king. In America, there was no king, but King Jesus. In America, men could truly render unto God that which was God's, as Caesar did not demand for himself that which was God's alone. (In fact, in America, we have no Caesar.) Men no longer had to violate their conscience in order to stay out of jail. Believers were no longer required to worship at the altar of the State or the State Church. In America, men could live free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I repeat: if anyone has a reason to give corporate thanksgiving unto God, it is the people of the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The common attitudes being displayed by many Christians--along with their spiritual leaders and pastors--today, however, are truly disgusting: apathy, indifference, and lethargy seem to rule the day. I constantly hear things like: "God hasn't called me to get involved in politics," or "I am only called to preach the Gospel," or "Maybe we need to go into persecution," or "It's not my responsibility to save America." All of which exposes their personal cowardice and utter contempt for the sacrifices rendered by their brave ancestors--sacrifices which procured the very blessings of liberty that they now hoggishly wallow in without appreciation or afterthought. And now, when faced with the imminent threat of the loss of the very liberties that they have taken for granted, they glibly reject any personal responsibility to maintain said liberties for their posterity--and pharisaically excuse their miserable conduct with pious-sounding clichés. They even have the wicked audacity to attempt to use the Scripture as an unholy closet in which they might hide--the same Scripture that their forefathers claimed as an illuminating beacon that was used to conquer the darkness of oppression.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I pray that this Thanksgiving season may be a time of both rejoicing and reflection, as well as a time of feasting and fellowship. But may it also be a time of rededication and renewal; a time of determination and decision, that we will each give our whole heart, mind, and strength to the restoration of the principles of freedom and federalism upon which our republic was built. Let us renew the Spirit of '76 in America once more. In the face of whatever danger and challenge that may oppose us, I pray that we will be the ones that will rise up to reclaim the blessings of liberty for our children and our children's children. So help us, Almighty God! &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-7746277381646614907?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/7746277381646614907/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/happy-thanksgiving-holiday-thanking.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7746277381646614907'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7746277381646614907'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/happy-thanksgiving-holiday-thanking.html' title='Happy Thanksgiving a Holiday Thanking the Creator for our provisions'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-473191475489410166</id><published>2009-11-24T20:39:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-24T20:49:24.928-06:00</updated><title type='text'>This is why America is being eroded</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Judge and Mr. Rockwell hit the nail on the head it is the Federal Reserve and the Political bodied system with two heads that act as one.

This is the formula of a tyrant. A tyrant that cannot back up their assertions with the truth and the facts. That is what a tyrant does when the truth is not on their side they force the issue in EVIL ways. I say evil because at its core that is what is going on. Only this tyrant is an untold amount of people and government agencies world wide including the United States Government.

The Judge interviews Rep. Clyburn and he states that most of what congress does is unconstitutional. What a novel idea. Our Rep. are intentionally ignoring the Constitution. Is this not treason? Only a depraved minded public would put up with this. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;All of this so called help for the less unfortunate is nothing but hog wash. Jefferson said "Those who trade safety for security deserve neither." Well, guess what you will get neither because these clowns running the show don't care about you and I. You can have your delusions that they do but only at your own destruction. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;And on the one trillion plus price tag the CBO has said this would cost is huge. But as we all know anything the government gets its hands on the price tag always is far short of what the true costs will be by at least three times (and that is being conservative). The biggest loss will be in our freedoms with the government encroaching on us at every turn. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;All those bleeding harts that want this criminal, evil, socialized medical program will get it. And because of your selfishness you have caused this great country untold problems. Which will result in the loss of untold liberties, wealth, and security. Thank you for helping in the Fall of the Republic.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;by Andrew Napolitano&lt;br /&gt;- FOXNews.com&lt;br /&gt;- November 06, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a 2,000 page bill to give the federal government the power to micromanage the health care of every single American. The bill will no doubt pass. It will raise your taxes, steal your freedom, invade your privacy, and ration your health care. Even the Republicans have introduced their version of Obamacare Lite. It, too, if passed, will compel employers to provide coverage, bribe the states to change their court rules, and tell insurance companies whom to insure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We do not have two political parties in this country, America. We have one party; called the Big Government Party. The Republican wing likes deficits, war, and assaults on civil liberties. The Democratic wing likes wealth transfer, taxes, and assaults on commercial liberties. Both parties like power; and neither is interested in your freedoms. Think about it. Government is the negation of freedom. Freedom is your power and ability to follow your own free will and your own conscience. The government wants you to follow the will of some faceless bureaucrat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I recently asked Congressman James Clyburn, the third ranking Democrat in the House, to tell me "Where in the Constitution the federal government is authorized to regulate everyone's healthcare--, he replied that most of what Congress does is not authorized by the Constitution, but they do it anyway. There you have it. Congress recognizes no limits on its power. It doesn't care about the Constitution, it doesn't care about your inalienable rights, it doesn't care about the liberties protected by the Bill of Rights, it doesn't even read the laws it writes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;America, this is not an academic issue. If this health care bill becomes law, life as you have known it, freedom as you have exercised it, privacy as you have enjoyed it, will cease to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Congress takes away our freedoms, they will be gone forever. What will you do to prevent this from happening?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Judge Andrew Napolitano is Fox News Channel's senior judicial analyst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Link to article &lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2009/11/06/judge-andrew-napolitano-health-care-freedom-congress/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-7282213296845333694?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/7282213296845333694/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/kiss-your-freedoms-goodbye-if-health.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7282213296845333694'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/7282213296845333694'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/11/kiss-your-freedoms-goodbye-if-health.html' title='Kiss Your Freedoms Goodbye If Health Care Passes'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-5861725833958903328</id><published>2009-11-04T15:00:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-04T15:23:18.613-06:00</updated><title type='text'>CFR Recording Suggests Creating False Scarcity To Drive Up Demand For H1N1 Vaccine</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is not a shock to me but I invite you to check out the links in the article (articles and video links are included).

It is not a mistake that the information is given here. Point one is that this virus is descendant from the 1918 flu. Think about that one for a minute. A reporter asks why pregnant women and children are mostly effected. Think about that one also. In the flu insert that comes with the vaccine is warnings of GBS, and dangers to pregnant women. Also that it has not been tested in the field of infertility.

Come and check out my conclusion. I have just stated the obvious. Check out the following article, the link, and you will see what I am talking about.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Full article and links &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/ny-times-afghan-opium-kingpin-on-cia-payroll/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Paul Joseph Watson&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Prison Planet.com&lt;br /&gt;Wednesday, October 28, 2009 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;A bombshell article in today’s edition of the New York Times lifts the lid on how the brother of Afghan President Hamid Karzai, a suspected kingpin of the country’s booming opium trade, has been on the CIA payroll for the past eight years. However, the article serves as little more than a whitewash because it fails to address the fact that one of the primary reasons behind the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan was the agenda to reinstate the Golden Crescent drug trade... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;The following headlines from the New York Times says it all&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Brother of Afghan Leader Said to Be Paid by C.I.A.

I guess it would impair their shipment of drugs into our communities and cut the government out of huge profits. Is that not a novel idea, ship drugs into our communities to destroy families, and the government gets no telling how much money of the laundering of money.

Schwiesow, Ret.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;October 21, 2009&lt;br /&gt;NewsWithViews.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear.” Revelation 13:7-9&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The people of this country, and in fact of the entire world, are witnessing the concluding constituents of an ancient and diabolical plan, an infernal contrivance that is as evil and fiendish as the spirit behind it, Satan the god of this world. It is the quest for world conquest through the institution and insinuation of fear, which is a mystery only to those who lack the illuminating power of God’s Spirit. It is a demonic - formerly clandestine and now forthright - sinister weaving together of finance religion and politics by the Order of the Illuminati an order that envelopes and encompasses the earthly sons of Satan. These are no less wicked and evil than their demonic counterparts of the dark and dirty Mephistophelean spirit world that guide them, lead them, and possess them in spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A HISTORY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Order of the Illuminati born of Satan and implemented by his manservant Adam Weishaupt in Bavaria on May 1st of 1776, is a self-perpetuating order of men by which the Luciferian torch for a new world order has been passed on seamlessly to succeeding generations by the many previous constituents that have returned to the dust from whence they came, and from which they will be resurrected to everlasting condemnation and shame before a righteous and everlasting God. It is not without reason that socialists and communists annually celebrate May 1st the day of the birth of this Faustian pact with the Devil; it is their guiding light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From its inception the members of this occultist order cunningly and surreptitiously accessed the policy-making agencies and offices of European governments, and by their inclusion in such they did, as contributing members, enable the international financial fiats that moved them to a controlling dominance over every national government in the world today. Like virulent microbes they have invaded and infected the social and governmental entities of every nation on this globe including those of the United States, our nation is now totally - and irrevocably - controlled and in the grasp of the infernal democratic tyrants that carry out the agenda for the implementation of a worldwide demonic kingdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The strategic contrivances of our now totalitarian government and of the Marxist indoctrination agents of the media and learning institutions - in tandem with the criminal machinations of our corporate, industrial, and financial magnates - have brought this nation to a now imminent abolition of sovereignty, a termination of the constitutional right to private property and inheritance, and the destruction of family and religion. The first of these will become an absolute reality when Comrade Obama signs the United Nations Climate Change Treaty in Copenhagen in December; the second of these has putatively been accomplished by the Supreme Court’s destruction of imminent domain, and the third is already a state of being, the family structure and religion have been effectively destroyed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SATAN AND MEN HATE GOD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One cannot read of, or study, the French Revolution without a shuddering revulsion in regard to its deep wickedness and inhumanity. It brought with it a sickness of spirit and a reign of terror that threatened to destroy all of Europe, and this was only the first of many such European occurrences that were produced by the behind the scenes maneuvering of the Order of the Illuminati. Hitler’s Third Reich, Mussolini’s Fascist Dictatorship and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, as well as a host of other European and world tyrannical movements, were all brought to fruition by, and as a consequence of, the godless, occultist, humanistic and demonist maneuverings of the Illuminati –now a worldwide satanic endeavor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Socialism is a means to an end, the mechanism by which a worldwide satanic kingdom will be realized. It is a planned methodology that suppresses human dignity, robs men of their God-given spirit and reduces the human species to an animalistic nature. It is a way for Satan to blaspheme Almighty God and to demean men, both of whom he hates. What better way to blaspheme God than to reduce man, who was created in the image of God to an animalistic nature? It was Satan who worked through his servant Charles Darwin to propagate the lie of evolution, and it was Satan who, through his children of the Illuminati, brought this monumental and monstrous lie to ascendancy, in the hearts and minds of men, over the truths of the Bible. I am often ashamed to be numbered among men, what a perverse lot we are, is it any wonder that God has at times repented in word of His creation of mankind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A PROPOGATER OF ALL THAT IS EVIL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1847 the Illuminati formed the Communist League, and it was the Illuminati that commissioned, a year later, Karl Marx to write the Communist Manifesto. Likewise it was the Illuminati that financed Lenin’s viciously cruel 1917 October Revolution a movement that very nearly brought them to world domination, and it was dear folk the Illuminati that financed the election campaign of the itinerant Kenyon born Marxist usurper that sits in the office of presidency of the United States of America. Via the internet untold millions of dollars of mysterious, illegal and undocumented contributions rolled into his campaign coffers from unidentified corporate and financial Illuminati magnates from the four corners of the world. Socialism is merely the false face of the Marxist Communism that will very shortly conquer the world. In the United States the last vestige of opposition to this satanic system has been swept away. In the plaintive parlance of the backseat child’s question, “Are we there yet?” The answer is, “Yes we are!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United States was – notice I have written was – the last bastion of freedom in the world. The Federalists instigated a civil war that provided the gateway into the country that the internationalists had been seeking. During the nineteenth century these had consolidated their control of the central banks throughout Europe, nationalism in Europe was as a matter of reality already dead, a thing of the past. Though Hitler would have denied it he was in fact owned body and soul by the Illuminati and completely under their control, the order was absolutely and entirely responsible for his massive crimes against humanity. The central banks in Europe, being firmly under the control of the Illuminati, used their finance of the monumental war debt of the American Civil War to export their socialistic-communistic control to the new land. They forced congress to pass the “National Banking Act” of 1863, and from that time forth the wealth of the nation has been steadily gathered into the hands of the wealthy few internationalists that now completely control the nation’s economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The crowning achievement by the Illuminati, that cinched the delivery of the people of the United States into the hands of the agents for a new world order, came with the founding of the American Federal Reserve System in 1913. The nation’s fiscal future was now in the hands of a privately controlled central bank not controlled by the government, but rather endorsed as the supreme controller of our currency by congressional politicians in a treacherous and traitorous sellout of the people’s sovereignty. With this move the Illuminati now held complete sway over the people’s destiny. Charles Lindberg, Sr. addressed the perfidy of congress with these words: “When the president signs this bill the invisible government of the monetary power will be legalized…the worst crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency bill.” These are words with which I most heartily concur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Notice that the recessive economy, that is being currently experienced, has affected only the common people. These have been forced out of the markets, their savings and retirement accounts have been depleted, their homes have been re-possessed, and their jobs have been terminated. Their losses were reflected only briefly by a downturn in the markets into which they had been lured by their own greed and by the tempters of the financial world who offered them wealth without honest endeavor. In truth the moneyed internationalist investors have at a rock bottom prices acquired their assets causing the markets to rebound, but the jobs, homes, savings and tangibles were not regained. That wealth has been transferred from the many unto the few who control their destinies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a manufactured and manipulated crash in every sense of the word, remember control is gained through crisis and fear and absolute control is gained by ever escalating crisis and fear. It is fear that makes people receptive to the intimations of false saviors, be reminded of that when the world seems to be crashing down around your ears and all hell is breaking out, the devil and his minions, both man and spirit, haven’t finished with us just yet, more crisis await and more pseudo saviors stand ready take advantage of your fears.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The politicians who prevail of course should have thwarted all of this and the media moguls that report on the state of being of the nation should have kept us duly informed, either these were monumentally stupid or they are an integral part of the conspiracy, I am firmly in the camp of those who opt for the latter, but do admit that I also endorse the former.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;COUNTING DOWN TO THE END&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Club of Rome, founded by the Illuminati in 1968, has divided the world into ten political/economic regions: North America (The United States, Mexico and Canada), Europe, Japan, Australia, Russia, South America, North Africa and the Middle East, Central and Southern Africa, and India and Malaysia/China. This tells me that we are in the very late stages of Biblical prophecy. In Satan’s new world order these regions will be amalgamated into the whole of a world government under the dragon’s iron control.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even now we are rapidly progressing through the final stages of the end of the age, the world, as we have known it, is dissipating into a new age that will be more terrifying than any other age in the history of mankind. The passing through stage must necessarily be so frightening as to compel a thoroughly terrified people to accept a world government - under Satan, and they will. Before that comes to pass we can expect civil strife, race wars, disease and pestilence, hunger and starvation, and economic conditions so severe as to require worldwide rationing and a control of commerce that will precede the taking of a mark in order to buy or sell, all of which will usher in a third world war that will end with the re-established ascendancy of Europe and the demise of the United States as a world power. This war is not to be confused with the war of all wars that will come at the end of Satan’s reign, a war that unless Christ return to establish His control no flesh would be saved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our faith calls us, as believers and followers of Christ, to yield to Him in every way and to carry out his great commission to bring the message of the Gospel to a lost world so that those who believe upon the only Son of God should have eternal life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not of works, lest any man should boast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;© 2009 - Jim R.

He accused Rhodes and the Oath Keepers of stockpiling weapons to be used in a plot to attack the federal government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rhodes emphatically stated that the Oath Keepers are not organizing people to engage in armed rebellion against the government. Oath Keepers are asking police officers and military personnel to disobey orders that violate the Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Matthews accused Rhodes and the Oath Keepers of harboring paranoid fantasies about foreign troops on U.S. soil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, foreign troops have conducted training exercises and other functions with the U.S. government within the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Full article by Kurt Nimmo with links to all the valuable material &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/matthews-splc-propaganda-minister-gang-up-on-oath-keepers/"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-1003241177175918628?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/1003241177175918628/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/10/matthews-splc-propaganda-minister-gang.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/1003241177175918628'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/1003241177175918628'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/10/matthews-splc-propaganda-minister-gang.html' title='Matthews, SPLC Propaganda Minister Gang Up On Oath Keepers'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-4134165543011425895</id><published>2009-10-22T10:39:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-22T10:56:43.927-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Our Republic May End With The Stroke of a Pen</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;I am driving this home because the Unites States Constitution, our Republic, Bill of Rights, That guarantee our freedoms is in sever danger, and Liberty in general is being squeezed out world wide. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;There is a long war against God, and these global warming alarmist are trying to play god. It is foolish to think that we have the power to control the climate. I know there are those who have said it in articles and interviews. Now they may succeed on short term basis, but God will not be mocked, and I think he knows a thing or two that those arrogant proclaimers don't. Watch out world cause you are calling destruction upon yourselves by challenging God. Just as &lt;a href="http://xtnyoda.blogspot.com/2009/10/ok.html#links"&gt;Xtnyoda&lt;/a&gt; posted on his blog, watch out when a stupid arrogant human challenges God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Elmer Beauregard&lt;br /&gt;Minnesotans For Global Warming&lt;br /&gt;October 20, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On July 4, 1776, with the stroke of a pen, our Republic was founded when the Declaration of Independence was signed. On December 7, 2009, with another stroke of the pen, our Republic might come to end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lord Christopher Monckton recently spoke at an event put on by the Minnesota Free Market Institute, he SHREDDED the whole “Global Warming” theory, he was great! But it was his closing statement that shocked me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I started Minnesotan’s For Global Warming, I knew the whole Global Warming theory was a joke. It was easy to make fun of the whole thing, especially with a cooling planet, and to portray Al Gore as a buffoon. Little did I realize that the “Global Warming” theory would be the excuse needed to set up a One World Communistic Government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Monckton’s Closing Remarks&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, this December, weeks away, a treaty will be signed. Your president will sign it. Most of the third world countries will sign it, because they think they’re going to get money out of it. Most of the left-wing regime from the European Union will rubber stamp it. Virtually nobody won’t sign it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I read that treaty. And what it says is this, that a world government is going to be created. The word “government” actually appears as the first of three purposes of the new entity. The second purpose is the transfer of wealth from the countries of the West to third world countries, in satisfaction of what is called, coyly, “climate debt” – because we’ve been burning CO2 and they haven’t. We’ve been screwing up the climate and they haven’t. And the third purpose of this new entity, this government, is enforcement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many of you think that the word “election” or “democracy” or “vote” or “ballot” occurs anywhere in the 200 pages of that treaty? Quite right, it doesn’t appear once. So, at last, the communists who piled out of the Berlin Wall and into the environmental movement, who took over Greenpeace so that my friends who funded it left within a year, because [the communists] captured it – Now the apotheosis as at hand. They are about to impose a communist world government on the world. You have a president who has very strong sympathies with that point of view. He’s going to sign it. He’ll sign anything. He’s a Nobel Peace Prize [winner]; of course he’ll sign it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the trouble is this; if that treaty is signed, if your Constitution says that it takes precedence over your Constitution (sic), and you can’t resign from that treaty unless you get agreement from all the other state parties – And because you’ll be the biggest paying country, they’re not going to let you out of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, thank you, America. You were the beacon of freedom to the world. It is a privilege merely to stand on this soil of freedom while it is still free. But, in the next few weeks, unless you stop it, your president will sign your freedom, your democracy, and your humanity away forever. And neither you nor any subsequent government you may elect will have any power whatsoever to take it back. That is how serious it is. I’ve read the treaty. I’ve seen this stuff about [world] government and climate debt and enforcement. They are going to do this to you whether you like it or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I think it is here, here in your great nation, which I so love and I so admire – it is here that perhaps, at this eleventh hour, at the fifty-ninth minute and fifty-ninth second, you will rise up and you will stop your president from signing that dreadful treaty, that purposeless treaty. For there is no problem with climate and, even if there were, an economic treaty does nothing to [help] it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I end by saying to you the words that Winston Churchill addressed to your president in the darkest hour before the dawn of freedom in the Second World War. He quoted from your great poet Longfellow:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sail on, O Ship of State!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sail on, O Union, strong and great!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Humanity with all its fears,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With all the hopes of future years,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is hanging breathless on thy fate!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the 3 points of the treaty that Mr. Monckton was speaking of:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;38. The scheme for the new institutional arrangement under the Convention will be based on three basic pillars: government; facilitative mechanism; and financial mechanism, and the basic organization of which will include the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;World Government (heading added)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(a) The government will be ruled by the COP with the support of a new subsidiary body on adaptation, and of an Executive Board responsible for the management of the new funds and the related facilitative processes and bodies. The current Convention secretariat will operate as such, as appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To Redistribute Wealth (heading added)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;b) The Convention’s financial mechanism will include a multilateral climate change fund including five windows: (a) an Adaptation window, (b) a Compensation window, to address loss and damage from climate change impacts [read: the "climate debt" Monckton refers to], including insurance, rehabilitation and compensatory components, © a Technology window; (d) a Mitigation window; and (e) a REDD window, to support a multi-phases process for positive forest incentives relating to REDD actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Enforcement Authority (heading added)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;c) The Convention’s facilitative mechanism will include: (a) work programmes for adaptation and mitigation; (b) a long-term REDD process; © a short-term technology action plan; (d) an expert group on adaptation established by the subsidiary body on adaptation, and expert groups on mitigation, technologies and on monitoring, reporting and verification; and (e) an international registry for the monitoring, reporting and verification of compliance of emission reduction commitments, and the transfer of technical and financial resources from developed countries to developing countries. The secretariat will provide technical and administrative support, including a new centre for information exchange [read; enforcement].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BEZszGJHbK4&amp;amp;rel=0&amp;amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BEZszGJHbK4&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-4134165543011425895?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/4134165543011425895/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/10/our-republic-may-end-with-stroke-of-pen.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4134165543011425895'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4134165543011425895'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/10/our-republic-may-end-with-stroke-of-pen.html' title='Our Republic May End With The Stroke of a Pen'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-9056503746932077112</id><published>2009-10-18T20:34:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-18T21:16:33.642-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Will Surrender America To World Government</title><content type='html'>&lt;a title="Permanent Link to Obama Will Surrender America To World Government" href="http://www.infowars.com/obama-will-surrender-america-to-world-government/" rel="bookmark"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#000000;"&gt;Obama Will Surrender America To World Government &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;It has been building for years and now our chickens are coming home to roost.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PMe5dOgbu40&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PMe5dOgbu40&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SISUIhprOa8&amp;amp;rel=0&amp;amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SISUIhprOa8&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;This is serious buisness folks and if you think that all will be okay, I feel very sorry for you.

type='text'>These Are Not Negotiable</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Another article of incite from Pastor, Patriot, and former Presidential Candidate Chuck Baldwin. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Do you care about your freedom? Do you cherish liberty? Do you like you rights guaranteed to you in the bill of rights and the Constitution? If you do you should read this article, if you don't run down to Washington D. C. to Pennsylvania Ave.  and fall at the feet of the New World Order. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;by Chuck Baldwin&lt;br /&gt;October 13, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson wrote, "Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, 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. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would argue that we, like our patriot forebears, have also endured "patient sufferance." For at least a half-century, we have patiently endured the erosion and abridgment of our freedoms and liberties. We have watched the federal government become an overbearing and meddlesome Nanny State that pokes its nose and sticks its fingers in virtually everything we do. We cannot drive a car, buy a gun, or even flush a toilet without Big Brother's permission. We are taxed, regulated, and snooped-on from the time we are born to the day we die. And then after we are dead, we are taxed again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the same way that Jefferson and Company patiently suffered up until that shot was fired that was heard around the world, we who love freedom today are likewise patiently suffering "a long train of abuses and usurpations." In fact, I would even dare say that these States United have become a boiling caldron of justifiable frustration and even anger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Accordingly, it is incumbent upon us to very seriously and thoughtfully examine those principles that we absolutely will never cede or surrender. We have already surrendered much of the freedom that was bequeathed to us by our forefathers. We are now to the point that we must define those principles that form our "line in the sand" and that we will not surrender under any circumstance. Either that, or we must admit to ourselves that there is nothing--no principle, no freedom, no matter how sacred--that we will not surrender to Big Government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here, then, are those principles that, to me, must never be surrendered. To surrender these liberties to Big Government would mean to commit idolatry. It would be sacrilege. It would reduce us to slavery. It would destroy our humanity. To surrender these freedoms would mean "absolute Despotism" and would provide moral justification to the proposition that such tyranny be "thrown off."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Right to Keep and Bear Arms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Men without guns are not free men; they are slaves. Men without guns are not citizens; they are subjects. Men without guns have lost the right of self-defense. They have lost the power to defend their families and protect their properties. Men without guns are reduced to the animal kingdom, becoming prey to the Machiavellians among them who would kill them for sport or for their own personal pursuits. As King Jesus plainly ordered, "He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one." (Luke 22:36) This we will do--at all costs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Right to Own Private Property&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like the right of self-defense, the private ownership of property is a God-given right that is rooted in the Sacred Text. As God told Moses, "Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of old time have set in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it." (Deut. 19:14)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, the history of Western Civilization is replete with the examples of free men who were determined (even at the cost of their very lives) to defend the right to own property. Without private property rights, men are reduced to serfs and servants. Like chattel, they feed themselves by another's leave. This we will not do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Right to Train and Educate Our Children&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Education has never been the responsibility of the State. From time immemorial, education has been the right and responsibility of the family. This, too, has its foundation in the Sacred Volume. "And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." (Eph. 6:4)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, the absolute right of homeshooling or private/parochial/Christian schooling must never be surrendered. Homeschooling, especially, is fundamental to freedom. It is not a coincidence that throughout history, most totalitarian governments forbade parents homeschooling their children. Any government--federal, State, or local--that forbids, or even restricts, the right of parents to homeschool their children has taken upon itself the uniform of a tyrant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Freedom of Speech and Worship&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speech and worship are matters of the heart and conscience (Luke 6:45; John 4:24). Only tyrants seek authority over matters of the heart. But, of course, that is what tyrants do: they seek to control men's thoughts and beliefs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hence, the alternative media is essential to liberty: the Internet, short wave radio, as well as independent magazines and periodicals. It is almost superfluous to say that there is no such thing as a free and independent press among the mainstream news media today. In fact, the major media more resembles a propaganda machine than it does a free press.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The same can be said for most of the mainstream churches in America today. They more resemble havens for politically correct, Big-Government ideology than they do bastions of Bible truth. Therefore, home-churches and non-establishment churches are increasingly requisite to a free people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Right to Determine One's Own Healthcare&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The marriage of Big Government and Big Medicine has created a healthcare monster. Already, the dispensing of medical treatment is micromanaged by Big Brother in a way that has resulted in skyrocketing costs and inferior care (and in some cases, even death). President Obama's universal health care initiatives that are sure to come (in one form or another) will only exacerbate an already untenable situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Free men and women absolutely have the right to refuse vaccinations for themselves and their children. Forced vaccinations (of any kind) are an assault against the very foundation of freedom. Free men have the right to choose their own physicians, their own hospitals, their own insurance programs, etc. They also have the right to refuse any and all of the above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God is Creator. He is also Healer (Exodus 15:26). Therefore, how men choose to seek God's healing is a private matter between them and God. Alternative medicine is a right. Already, our military personnel are used as human guinea pigs to test a variety of drugs and chemicals. Public schools also require forced vaccinations. And now the push is on to force the general population to take the Swine Flu vaccine. At the current pace, it won't be long until all alternative medicines and treatments will be illegal and the federal government will be America's doctor. This is not acceptable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Right to Life&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2000 years of Western Civilization have perpetually reconfirmed that life is a gift of God. Both Biblical and American history repeatedly honor God as the Source and Sustainer of man's existence. Therefore, evils such as abortion, infanticide, and euthanasia must be vehemently resisted. It is bad enough that any government (especially one such as ours) would legalize abortion, but the concept of FORCED abortion, infanticide, or euthanasia could only be regarded as a despotic attack on life and liberty of the gravest proportion. In fact, under Natural Law, such an attack would remove said government from the protection of Heaven and would place it in a state of war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*The Right to Live as a Free and Independent People&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God separated the Nations (Genesis 11). Therefore, it is absolutely necessary that we Americans maintain our independence and national sovereignty. We simply cannot (and will not) allow ourselves to become part of any hemispheric or global union.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There they are: seven freedom-principles that are not negotiable. As Jefferson said, we are "disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable."

Its purpose is to accomplish a social democracy to transform societies and governments not through revolution but gradually. It is the foundation of the British Labor Party and subsequently it forced the decolonized of the British Empire. The Fabians favored gradual incremental change. The name was taken from the Roman Republic General Fabius Maximus or Quintus Fabius Maximus the “Cunctator.” The meaning of which is “The Delayer.” His, as indeed is the Fabian winning strategy … harassment and war of attrition rather than head on battles against his enemy, Carthage, whose defender was Hannibal Barca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fabians favored nationalism of land, believing that rents collected by landowners were unearned. The founders of the Fabian Society were Sidney and Beatrice Webb (founders of the London School of Economics). Together, they wrote studies on co-operative economics applied to ownership of capital as well as land. The meat of their message was a minimum wage, creation of socialized medicine, and the abolition of hereditary peers. They favored a British Empire imperialist foreign policy as a conduit for Liberal Internationalism and reform and a welfare state modeled on the Otto von Bismarck Social Legislation and a national education system where its classrooms are the future battlefields of the Empire in which commercial prosperity are to be fought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Famous Fabians: H.G. Wells, George Bernard Shaw Leonard and Virginia Woolf, Ramsay MacDonald, Jawaharial Nehru, writers Harold Laski and H. Tawney, G.D.H. Cole, Bertrand Russell who resigned because he believed the Socialists (Fabians) in the leadership government role against Germany would lead to war. These are just a few names of the past. The more recent rolls are composed of 5,810 individual registered members (2004).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is more than apparent that the model of United States public education was taken out of the Fabian textbooks and from the designer of U.S. public education, Fabian Socialist John Dewey’s MATRIX for public education. It’s the same as the British counterpart, the Bismarck model, where children are really property of the state and trained to serve the state, but never to be provided an education meant for men of letters, their betters. The result of this socialist mantra is educational failure, dooming down students to the levels of uselessness within a modern society. The Bush Administration, knowingly or not knowing, greatly assisted the Fabians through the underfunded “No Child Left Behind” directive centered on the concept of minimalism based on tests set to meet universal standards and nothing more. Numerous tests are administered to determine improvement of the child, but in reality the children are taught to pass the tests and not necessarily understand the concepts behind the questions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dropout rate of high school students averages 50%. The United States has become the dumping ground for illegal alien families who speak only a foreign language, are mainly hard working peasants who fill jobs as laborers and displace legal Americans because they work for less, ask no questions, have no benefits and are afraid to report abuse by their employers. A large number of these children attend the public schools destined to be failures within the system. Blacks also are reflected in great numbers because of environmental, cultural and financial reasons. Past history of segregation centered them in closely tied poorer neighborhoods that had high crime rates and as a consequence resulted in pathetic, neighborhood schools. The MS-13 gang, the Crips and the Bloods are spreading nationwide. They recruit the dropouts, thus a whole new army of criminals are being nurtured on welfare, theft, murder and as distributors of illegal drugs. Our prison population has tripled without space to house them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A famous quote is: “Fabianism feeds on Capitalism, but excretes Communism.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Based on what has transpired since Barrack Hussein Obama’s taking the oath of office (which he flubbed on his initial try and had to have the oath of office administered a second time), the Fabian philosophy is daily being exhibited by his advocacy for progressive legislation based on equality, yet favoring those in the lower working classes vs. those of highly productive manufactures of goods and services, the investors and risk takers who create businesses and employment. In other words, the engine that made the United States the envy of the world, until globalism entered the economy and nationhood became a four letter word. Soon, the socialists and neo-Con’s greed took over the government and Wall Street. His victory in congress to pass the stimulus law makes our children’s children’s children financial slaves to the tax man. In the most perverse way, President Obama also added a litany of presidential directives to embellish abortion rights, homosexual unions and benefits; harsh hate speech laws and penalties, so-called fairness in broadcasting that destroys conservative outlets by means of implementing equal time for the liberal viewpoint. He is known by his voting record for denying private ownership of guns. New gun legislation is being prepared as this article is being written that will make it near impossible to own a gun with severe penalties for those who do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His cabinet appointments are in the who’s who of the far left of left liberals, tax dodgers, following the example the Chairman of the House Banking Committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But even more alarming is the number of Democrats who in lockstep approve of Barack’s nonsensical, contradictive snake oil sales pitch. This is ample proof that the pot-smoking radicals of the sixties generation are now in charge of the United States. How can this be, one may ask? The answer lies in the public education system, the textbook publishers and the major media controllers who follow not just the Fabian ideology, but use it for an even more sinister purpose. There is more than a very strong theory that the international corporations, the central bankers are/were linked to the Soviets and international communism and Hitler’s National Socialist Party. Prescott Bush, grandfather of George H.W. Bush and great grandfather of George W. Bush along with Averill Harriman’s bank connections worked both side of the ideological fence before and during WW II.&lt;br /&gt;Their banks financed Hitler and the Soviets. Averill Harriman, the financier and international banker, in WWII became the single most effective friend of the Soviets as Ambassador to the Soviet Union. Averill set up the first cement company for Stalin in the 30s. Throughout WWII the United States was infiltrated by communist spies, sympathizers and traitors located in the most sensitive areas of intelligence, in the military, in all areas of entertainment, in major media, radio, print publications, in the nation’s atomic science projects and at the highest political, diplomatic and cabinet levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There were congressional investigations and a list of communist sympathizers, some went to prison and others were just expelled from the Actors Guild. Senator Joseph McCarthy’s accusations brought out in the Army vs. McCarthy hearings pounded away on claims of massive infestation by Soviet agents, but McCarthy was blocked at every attempt to obtain their FBI listing. Joseph Welch finally made the statement “Senator, have you no shame? McCarthy made the statement that Welch had a Communist on his staff. President Eisenhower (CFR) squashed the entire show that had the attention of the world. As quickly as it was brought out in the open, just as quickly it died ignominiously. Later, it was found that Senator McCarthy’s suspects were actually a “Third Column” of Communists working with the Soviet Union. It was too late for McCarthy to be vindicated; he died long before the truth was revealed. The Fabian Socialists and the Communists still retained in the federal government key positions were instrumental in saving their fellow travelers, their comrades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The influence of the central bankers and their investments in axis powers throughout the war had a lot to do with saving the Farben Corporation and plans to finance reconstruction of Europe. I.G. Farbeninindustrie AG is an outgrowth of the Nazi’s major industry for weapon development, sophisticated munitions; Sarin poison gas; a substitute for rubber with a butyl styrene substitute; and a substitute gasoline using coal for public transportation. Farben used slave labor in its weapons factories and chemical plants. None of Farben’s holdings were bombed throughout WWII for a reason. The Soviets planned to seize Farben after the war. There is no doubt that the central bank connections during and after the war were vital in protecting the central banker’s interests in financing the rebirth of Europe as well as funding the Soviet’s massive requirements. Insuring Farben’s survival, its facilities and its expertise was an added bonus to be used by our government in its plans to use the German scientific knowhow of Farben executives, engineers and scientists … human critical assets for United States defense, even hiring those who were tried at Nuremburg for war crimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The rest of the article with links &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.newswithviews.com/Kress/joe137.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HERE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-2810289237279040867?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/2810289237279040867/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/10/fabian-socialists-gone-wild.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2810289237279040867'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2810289237279040867'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/10/fabian-socialists-gone-wild.html' title='FABIAN SOCIALISTS GONE WILD'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-3533992234760734686</id><published>2009-10-06T18:14:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-06T18:33:00.795-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Doctors Concerned FluMist Vaccine Could Spread Live H1N1 Virus</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;This post if for all my brothers and sisters here in America and around the world.

Now it’s the organiser for the international stimulus package which has been sold as a stimulus package for poor countries.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The IMF may have catapulted to a more exalted status than that. According to Jim Rickards, director of market intelligence for scientific consulting firm Omnis, the unannounced purpose of last week’s G20 Summit in Pittsburgh was that “the IMF is being anointed as the global central bank.” Rickards said in a CNBC interview on September 25 that the plan is for the IMF to issue a global reserve currency that can replace the dollar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“They’ve issued debt for the first time in history,” said Rickards. “They’re issuing SDRs. The last SDRs came out around 1980 or ‘81, $30 billion. Now they’re issuing $300 billion.

That is right an unconstitutional security force is harassing this Montana town. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;I personally called the local Sheriff to confirm the Montana News 8 report. Well, it went like this is News 8 a real station? "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Yes". Is this security force acting as police in Hardin? "The town of Hardin is dealing with them." Have you done anything about these people acting as police officers in your county? "No, the town of Hardin is dealing with them." I inquired further and basically got that is all the info I can give ( all I know). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Ladies and Gentlemen, If this doesn't get you upset then I don't know what will. This is absolutely wrong for this to be going on in America. This American Police Force is shady at best. They take no oath to the Constitution and they are a private firm. This smells of hired mercenaries. Why is hired mercenaries being placed here in America, when almost every police department across America has increased in size since the 90's. There is no need for these private firms and it is against the law.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Calling all Patriots and Oath Keepers to stand guard. We have to stay vigilant against tyranny. Freedom is hard Tyranny is easy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;"The only thing for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Here is the articles for you to review. Be prepared for your jaw to hit the floor.&lt;br /&gt;Here is an article by &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/hardin-montana-under-siege/"&gt;Michael Hollingsworth&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is an article by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2009/09/30/whats-happening-in-hardin-montana/"&gt;Michelle Malkin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Here is an article by&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/09/29/crimesider/entry5351491.shtml"&gt;CBS News&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Here is an article by the&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://billingsgazette.com/news/state-and-regional/montana/article_ee552180-aac1-11de-b6ed-001cc4c03286.html"&gt;Billings Gazette&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Oh and by the way Hardin Montana is in the poorest county in Montana (per news broadcast report). The detention center is on a Indian Reservation, which technically is like another country according to some people in our government. Remember President Obama's famous words " We cannot rely on our military for our security needs. We need a civilian security force just as powerful, just as strong, and funded as our military." If you don't believe me google it and watch it for yourself. There is more; taking a look at the APF is like looking into a dark room without any light. What I am saying is that the organization "APF" is front for somebody due to the research I have done leads into dead ends. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-4017285175937668579?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/4017285175937668579/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/hardin-montana-under-siege.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4017285175937668579'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4017285175937668579'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/hardin-montana-under-siege.html' title='Hardin, Montana under siege!'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-2720866036190484101</id><published>2009-09-29T09:41:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T09:43:53.902-05:00</updated><title type='text'>SHERIFF MACK Forced Vaccine Prevention and The Power of The Sheriff</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/jHBYljH2Q-E&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/jHBYljH2Q-E&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QiBcC8_goVg&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QiBcC8_goVg&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-2720866036190484101?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/2720866036190484101/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/sheriff-mack-forced-vaccine-prevention.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2720866036190484101'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2720866036190484101'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/sheriff-mack-forced-vaccine-prevention.html' title='SHERIFF MACK Forced Vaccine Prevention and The Power of The Sheriff'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-8375741817299283332</id><published>2009-09-28T14:17:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-28T14:29:53.871-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE DESTROYERS WHO CONTROL CONGRESS, THE WHITE HOUSE &amp; MEDIA</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Another Article from Devvy Kidd.

As a matter of fact, he used that term 162 times while he was president. [1] Those of us who tried to explain the planned destruction of America were called the usual names: wackos, anti-government this or that. The same year, Joe Biden, traitor to this republic, openly on the senate floor outlined the 'Wilsonian Vision' for a new world order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One world government. New World Order. Just code words for anti-government, "disenfranchised" kooks writing all those books because they hate President Clinton. No, make that Bush, Jr. No, make that Marxist Obama/Soetoro. Millions like me have given up precious time with our family, fun is a word of the past and forget any paychecks - just because we don't have have anything better to do! What I learned in the first year of my research scared the hell out of me and that took care of the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. There was a job to do and that was try and reach every American who would listen. Back then, there were few. Now, we are on the brink and the destroyers no longer hide their intentions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Full article at this &lt;a href="http://www.newswithviews.com/Devvy/kidd471.htm"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8375741817299283332?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8375741817299283332/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/destroyers-who-control-congress-white.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8375741817299283332'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8375741817299283332'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/destroyers-who-control-congress-white.html' title='THE DESTROYERS WHO CONTROL CONGRESS, THE WHITE HOUSE &amp; MEDIA'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-4998896194585135603</id><published>2009-09-25T12:01:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-25T12:19:38.332-05:00</updated><title type='text'>SNAP ANALYSIS: New world economic order takes shape at G20</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Out in the open and in your face the G 20 announces World Government and a convergence of world economy. If you think these people have our best interest at hart think again.

What you have been witnessing the last several years especially lately is the complete dismantling of our Constitution and YOUR RIGHTS. In Pittsburgh at the G 20 the police and military are not only shut down protests without permits but ones with also. Our Constitution does not mean anything anymore and we should not have to have a permit to protest our government (it is un American to have to get permission to protest.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;All I can say for all those who think they are free bend over and grab your ankles cause you have a surprise coming to you.

Currently, the split in voting power is 57 percent for industrialized countries and 43 percent for developing countries. The shift would make the split nearly 50-50.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The G20 was formed in 1999 for finance ministers and central bank chiefs following the Asian financial crisis. The idea was to help the G7 -- the United States, Germany, Britain, France, Italy, Canada and Japan -- talk with the wider world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Following are some of the implications of the decisions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* The shifts reflect a recognition by the United States and Europe of a new global economic reality in which emerging market economies play a bigger role, especially in the aftermath of the global financial crisis that hurt developed economies more than developing ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* By making the G20 the new global economic coordinator, countries are committing to maintaining cooperation even after the global financial upheaval and recession recede. The G20 was upgraded from a ministerial to a leaders-level forum only last year as the crisis deepened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Adopting the G20 as the new economic steering committee raises questions over the whether or not the Group of Eight, which makes up the world's industrial countries, will eventually be faded out. Diplomats said the G8 would continue to function but would focus on non-economic issues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* The agreements are big wins for U.S. President Barack Obama, hosting his first international summit. Since his election last year, he has pushed for changes in the global financial architecture to recognize the increasing economic clout of China and other emerging markets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The agreement to overhaul the IMF's voting structure is especially big for the new Obama administration, given that the United States proposed the 5 percentage point shift. The speed with which the G20 agreed to the change -- if the draft communique is eventually adopted -- is surprising because of the politically sensitive nature of the issue for Europe, which will see the biggest dilution in its voting power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Giving developing nations more say at the IMF and a bigger say in global economic affairs could help Obama succeed in his push to get big exporters like China to increase domestic demand, helping slower-growing economies like the United States to find new markets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* The shift of at least 5 percentage points in voting power is the largest increase ever seen in the IMF's voting structure and is likely to see China overtake old European powers Britain and France which have long resisted the move.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* The G20 decision on IMF voting reform will give momentum to a 2011 deadline for overhauling IMF governance which will then be voted on by the IMF's 186 member countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* The G20 also agreed the head of the IMF should be selected based on qualifications and not nationality, according to the draft communique obtained by Reuters. The decision is significant because the head of the IMF has always been a European, while the president of the World Bank has always been an American.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-4998896194585135603?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/4998896194585135603/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/snap-analysis-new-world-economic-order.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4998896194585135603'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/4998896194585135603'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/snap-analysis-new-world-economic-order.html' title='SNAP ANALYSIS: New world economic order takes shape at G20'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-8295589770039555558</id><published>2009-09-23T17:37:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-23T18:00:33.213-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Vaccines -

This country has changed drastically since I was a kid. The one thing that amazes me is the totally disregard for the law of the land the United States Constitution. We have two major parties in our government and no matter who is in charge they both strip away the Constitution. The only ones that cares are the Patriotic Americans that relay care about this country and the opposing party who is not in power. The opposing party that opposes the in power party is all talk and no action. They decry the law, and the Constitution, and when they assume the power to blank with the Constitution. They both make up any excuse to get us to go along with their plans of enslavement (for the lack of a better term). When and how all this comes about I don't know but I do know we are on the verge of a national crisis. How do I know? Just by keeping up with the daily news, and it is all over the news you just have to pay attention. All those who think I am just babbling get your head out of the idiot tube (the TV) and start reading the news and wake up. Get to know your Constitution&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the pretext of “helping” local communities short of police in difficult economic times, as well as preparations for a potential swine flu pandemic, U.S. troops are now occupying America as the country sinks into a state of de facto martial law.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have been inundated with reports over the last few weeks of uniformed soldiers and National Guardsmen running internal checkpoints all over the country as a frightening “Red Dawn” scenario unfolds not with a bang but with a whimper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The military are now being called upon to undertake roles normally designated to police as Americans are incrementally acclimated to accept the presence of troops on the streets as an everyday occurrence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The latest example occurred in Newport Kentucky earlier this month when military checkpoints suddenly appeared downtown on September 6. Military Police from the U.S. Army National as well as Marines were purportedly conducting “traffic control” because the city was strapped for funds and did not have enough police to do the job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Members of the WeAreChange Ohio group interviewed some of the troops, who when asked if they would be prepared to “confiscate guns, shoot resisters in the back of the head, or throw people into ovens to incinerate bodies,” refused to categorically deny that they would follow such orders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch the video below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/yAtN58fxidQ&amp;amp;rel=0&amp;amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/yAtN58fxidQ&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, this was by no means the first time that troops have been used to fulfil roles normally ascribed to police in Kentucky...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...In a You Tube video, a woman describing herself as a soldier explains how she was part of a drill in California centered around setting up roadblocks and checkpoints so authorities could check who has received the swine flu vaccine. Those who have had the shots will be fitted with an RFID bracelet so they can be tracked. Those who have not taken the shot will be offered it there and then and if they still refuse, will be carted off to an internment camp, according to the woman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rvALDJu9yDU&amp;amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rvALDJu9yDU&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As CNN reported back in July, the military will assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant swine flu outbreak in the U.S. this fall, stoking fears that the pandemic, which has claimed relatively few lives so far, will be used as an excuse to implement martial law and a mandatory vaccination program...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Complete article by Paul Joseph Watson at this &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/maximum-alert-u-s-troops-now-occupying-america/"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-2348947524144656352?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/2348947524144656352/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/maximum-alert-us-troops-now-occupying.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2348947524144656352'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/2348947524144656352'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/maximum-alert-us-troops-now-occupying.html' title='Maximum Alert: U.S. Troops Now Occupying America'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-4186347124150873594</id><published>2009-09-22T11:36:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-22T11:47:16.585-05:00</updated><title type='text'>It Is Going To Be A Rocky Road</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Here is some prophetic words from Pastor, Patriot, Presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin. Take notice folks and heed the warnings. We are being plunged into unprecedented times especially for all of us who never been on true hard times. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;PLEASE HEED THE WARNINGS!!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;There is enough information out there that if you are not at least prepared for three days of no food or water then shame on you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chuck Baldwin&lt;br /&gt;September 22, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s face it: most Americans live in a world of false security. This is somewhat understandable, given the fact that the majority of the U.S. population was born after 1945. Few remember the dangers and hardships of World War II; fewer still remember the Great Depression. Few Americans know what it’s like to not have some sort of “supercenter” nearby with shelves stocked with every kind of food imaginable, twenty-four hours a day. Few know what life was like before there were restaurants of all sizes and types on virtually every street corner in America. And only a handful remembers when most roads were unpaved, or when sports were truly a pastime and not a megabuck obsession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Modern living within the world’s only “superpower” has created a giant unsuspecting, soft, lackadaisical, and lethargic society. We expect the government to keep our streets safe, our roads paved, our stores stocked, our jobs secure, and our enemies at bay. However, in the desire to make government the panacea for all our problems, we have sold not only our independence, but also our virtue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where the federal government was contracted (via the U.S. Constitution) to accept limited power for the overall good of both states and people, it has become a monster of gargantuan proportions, claiming authority over virtually every liberty and right known to man. And in the process, it decided it didn’t need God, either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is no hyperbole to say that the U.S. federal government has been on a “Ban God” bandwagon for the past 50 years. Whether it kicks prayer and Bible reading out of school, bars military chaplains from praying in Jesus’ name, burns Bibles in Iraq, removes state supreme court chief justices from their positions for posting the Ten Commandments, or threatens high school principals with jail for asking the blessing, the federal government has invoked the judgment of Heaven upon our country as surely as did Old Testament Israel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Full article &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/it-is-going-to-be-a-rocky-road/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and it is a must

type='text'>Push For Globalism Continues</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Food For Thought From The Chuckwagon by Chuck Baldwin September 15, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When George W. Bush was President, he greatly advanced the prospect of integrating the United States with a North American Union (NAU). With no thanks to most Christian conservatives or the mainstream news media, hundreds of thousands of patriotic Americans rallied against this proposal and--at least temporarily--seriously stymied Bush's draconian dream. But if you thought President Barack Obama would be content to let the NAU die a natural death, think again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reporting for World Net Daily, author/researcher Jerome Corsi recently reported, "President Obama is continuing President George W. Bush's effort to advance North American integration with a public-relations makeover calculated to place the program under the radar of public opinion and to deflect concerns about border security and national sovereignty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The Obama administration has 'rebranded' and 'refocused' the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America, or SPP, to advance the Bush administration's agenda of North American integration under the rubric of the "North American Leaders Summit,' a less controversial banner, according to confidential sources in the U.S. Department of Commerce and State Department who agreed to speak with WND only if their comments were kept off the record."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As further evidence of President Obama's determination to continue the Bush policy of a commercial union between countries (or "League of Democracies" as John McCain called it), Corsi also reported, "President Obama has actively backtracked on his campaign promises to renegotiate NAFTA to get provisions more favorable to American workers." &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Complete Article at this &lt;a href="http://www.chuckbaldwinlive.com/chuckwagon.php"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-8165617851211385236?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/8165617851211385236/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/push-for-globalism-continues.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8165617851211385236'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/8165617851211385236'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/push-for-globalism-continues.html' title='Push For Globalism Continues'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-6036444406444228541</id><published>2009-09-16T19:44:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-16T20:05:02.126-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Big News Cong.

Never in the history of the United Nations has a U.S. President taken the chairmanship of the powerful UN Security Council. Perhaps it is because of what could arguably be a Constitutional prohibition against doing so. To wit: Section 9 of the Constitution says:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Full article &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/in-violation-of-the-constitution-obama-takes-on-chairmanship-of-un-security-council/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729235978242770866-5517655229532529041?l=jbgwatney.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/feeds/5517655229532529041/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/in-violation-of-constitution-obama.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5517655229532529041'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4729235978242770866/posts/default/5517655229532529041'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbgwatney.blogspot.com/2009/09/in-violation-of-constitution-obama.html' title='In Violation of the Constitution: Obama Takes On Chairmanship of UN Security Council'/><author><name>Brian Gwatney</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01492352655077358107</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729235978242770866.post-27779384567964875</id><published>2009-09-14T19:21:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-14T19:25:44.138-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Pushes Banker Takeover Plan at Federal Hall</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aWlDnv5oYdg&amp;amp;rel=0&amp;amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aWlDnv5oYdg&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="325" height="244"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Is it stupidity, ignorance, or arrogance?
