This quote from Tax Cheat Charlie Rangel illuminates the destruction of our republic from within. See if you catch it.
Charlie Rangel of New York said that the “action was necessary because there is a possibility that a handful of Senate Republicans could choose to engage in partisan tactics to stall this important health reform bill,” quoted by FoxNews.
Did you catch it? Our government was designed the way it is to ensure that minority opinions and agendas weren’t being forced down the nation’s throats. The “filibuster proof” majority is necessary to ensure that YOU are being protected. The democrats, who have gone off the deep end of communist totalitarianism, will with a stroke of the pen destroy the government that was put in place by our founding fathers to SERVE its citizens. With little more than a whimper from the spineless republicans the democrats will improperly implement the process of reconciliation which was meant for BUDGET impasses. They are using it merely to overcome ideological differences.
Are you listening, America? This is totalitarianism. This is communism. When your government allows you no say, and takes all that you have to give to those who don’t deserve it, you have communism. When your property and wealth that you have earned and legally own, is taken from you to “benefit the state,” you have communism.
If our voices aren’t loud enough to stop these people now, I fear it will take something much louder and more violent to right this wrong.
I can’t afford this governments good will.

Media reports suggest Democrats in Congress are preparing to invoke special rules that require only a simple majority vote to push through upcoming education and healthcare reform bills.
According to TheHill.com, Democratic Senator Robert Harkin of Iowa, chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, is planning to use the reconciliation procedure to go around a possible Republican obstruction when presenting legislation that would end the Federal Family Education Loan program, which offers subsidies to student loan companies.
Democratic lawmakers also paved the way for the use of the special procedure to vote on the comprehensive healthcare reform bill when the Ways and Means Committee approved the measure last week.
Committee chairman Charlie Rangel of New York said that the “action was necessary because there is a possibility that a handful of Senate Republicans could choose to engage in partisan tactics to stall this important health reform bill,” quoted by FoxNews.
Reconciliation is a legislative process intended to allow a contentious budget bill to be considered without being subject to filibuster. Under its rules, only the simple majority of 51 votes, rather than 60, is required for the bill to pass.

I faxed this to every senator with a published fax number, and went through the pain of filling out the e-mail form and e-mailing this to each senator on the finance committee. If you don’t like what Washington is doing, what are you doing about it?
In spite of these efforts, and the efforts of millions of you out there who have voiced your opposition to government run healthcare, I feel confident that the senate this morning will give us the middle finger and say “Screw you, peasants!”
Screw us? No, screw them! My family and I pray for all of them daily to make wise decisions, but I feel as if that may not be enough to change the outcome of this issue. I fear that the American people are going to have to take more drastic measures to save themselves and this country from ruin.

To: All United States Senators
Subject: Vote NO on Healthcare Reform
Dear Senators:
I urge you to vote “NO” on the pending vote on Sen. Baucus’ proposal for healthcare “reform.” Many of the provisions in this “bill” that isn’t yet a bill are anti-capitalist, anti-American, and unconstitutional. At the very least it will tie up the legal system with challenges to its constitutionality, and at worst will cause open rebellion and economic chaos when all of the hidden fees and taxes are imposed and can’t be paid.
Government by definition can’t create wealth, and can only create jobs that are paid for by redistributing other people’s wealth. Government (i.e. you) should be focusing on removing the restraints from the economic system that has generated the most wealth and the highest standard of living in the history of the world. Just get out of the way.
In encourage you to remember your place. You work for us, not the other way around. When our founding fathers broke away from the oppressive government of England to establish the American government, they turned to God for guidance and inspiration. The Declaration of Independence was a result of that inspiration. An important passage of that document is presented here.
“…We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. … “
My family and I pray for you all daily. We pray for wisdom for you, and grace and mercy for our country. Please consider carefully the actions you are about to take, for if taken lightly they may destroy the very nation that has given you the freedom to take those actions.
Sincerely,
///SIGNED///

Are you KIDDING me? Are you @#$%&*! KIDDING me?!?! The Nobel Peace Prize? For WHAT? The only thing Comrade Chairman Maobama has done is run around the world telling everyone how bad America is. We have finally stripped away any pretense of what it actually takes to win the prize these days. It was questionable when Jimmuh Cahtuh won it. It was an absolute joke when Al Gore won it for presenting a scientific HOAX. Now you have an American president doing nothing but playing into the hands of the America-haters around the world. As the second article indicates, not everyone is thrilled about Obama’s “peace” prize. Obama’s buddies, the Taliban, were expecting “hope and change.” They’re not too thrilled with Obama’s resemblance to G.W. Bush when it comes to Afghanistan. I’m sure Obama is more upset over the disapproval of the Taliban than he is over the prospect of Iran nuking Israel off the map.
Alfred Nobel is turning over in his grave at how his legacy has been distorted.

By Nicholas Kristof
So what do you think of President Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize? I’m nonplussed — I admire his efforts toward Middle East peace, but the prize still seems very premature. What has he done?
Obama’s work on the Middle East, mostly through Senator Mitchell’s efforts, are sensible but haven’t produced any results yet. They certainly don’t match the intensive efforts that Bill Clinton made with his Middle East peace negotiations in the fall of 2000. Likewise, Obama’s efforts on nuclear non-proliferation are important, but they are purely an aspiration. All the hard work is yet to come — and trying to renegotiate the NPT will be very hard indeed.
In other areas, Obama has done little. He’s been largely absent on Sudan, Congo, Burma and global poverty and health issues, and doesn’t even have a USAID administrator. I think he has the right instincts on these issues and expect him to get engaged, but shouldn’t the Nobel Peace Prize have a higher bar than high expectations? Especially when there are so many people who have worked for years and years on the front lines, often in dangerous situations, to make a difference to the most voiceless people of the world? I think of Dr. Denis Mukwege at the Panzi Hospital in eastern Congo, or Jo and Lyn Lusi at the Heal Africa Hospital also in eastern Congo, or Greg Mortenson traipsing all over Pakistan and Afghanistan to build schools, or Dr. Catherine Hamlin working for half a century to fight obstetric fistula and maternal mortality in Ethiopia, or so many others. In the light of that competition, it seems to me that it might have made sense to wait and give Obama the Nobel Peace Prize in his eighth year in office, after he has actually made peace somewhere.
In any case, I do hope that the Prize gives Obama a bit more political capital in his Middle East peace efforts, and a bit more confidence and willingness to bang heads there when necessary.
What do you think of Obama getting the Nobel Peace Prize, and who would have been your choice?

By Waheedullah Massoud (AFP) – 1 hour ago
KABUL — The Taliban Friday condemned Barack Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize, saying rather than bring peace to Afghanistan he had boosted troop numbers and continued the aggressive policies of his predecessor.
“We have seen no change in his strategy for peace. He has done nothing for peace in Afghanistan,” Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told AFP.
“We condemn the award of the Nobel Peace Prize for Obama,” he said by telephone from an undisclosed location.
“When Obama was elected president, we were hopeful he would keep his promise to bring change. But he brought no change, he has continued the same old strategy as (President George W.) Bush.
“He reinforces the war in Afghanistan, he sent more troops to Afghanistan and is considering sending yet more. He has shed Afghan blood and he continues to bleed Afghans and to boost the war here,” he said.
Obama won the award less than a year after he took office with the jury hailing his “extraordinary” diplomatic efforts. … (Complete article HERE)

 Sen. John “Jay” Rockefeller, D-W.V. |
A pair of bills introduced in the U.S. Senate would grant the White House sweeping new powers to access private online data, regulate the cybersecurity industry and even shut down Internet traffic during a declared “cyber emergency.”
Senate bills No. 773 and 778, introduced by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.V., are both part of what’s being called the Cybersecurity Act of 2009, which would create a new Office of the National Cybersecurity Advisor, reportable directly to the president and charged with defending the country from cyber attack. (What ever happened to the idea of SMALLER government? That baby got thrown out with the fiscal restraint bath water)
A working draft of the legislation obtained by an Internet privacy group also spells out plans to grant the Secretary of Commerce access to all privately owned information networks deemed to be critical to the nation’s infrastructure “without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule or policy restricting such access.” (NOTHING you do online will be private, not that it really is now. But your government will have unrestrained access to ANYTHING you do online. George Orwell was a prophet. His predictions were just 25 years ahead of their time.)
Privacy advocates and Internet experts have been quick to sound the alarm over the act’s broadly drawn government powers.
“The cybersecurity threat is real,” says Leslie Harris, president of the Center for Democracy and Technology, which obtained the draft of S.773, “but such a drastic federal intervention in private communications technology and networks could harm both security and privacy.”
“The whole thing smells bad to me,” writes Larry Seltzer in eWeek, an Internet and print news source on technology issues. “I don’t like the chances of the government improving this situation by taking it over generally, and I definitely don’t like the idea of politicizing this authority by putting it in the direct control of the president.“
According to a Senate document explaining the bill, the legislation “addresses our country’s unacceptable vulnerability to massive cyber crime, global cyber espionage and cyber attacks that could cripple our critical infrastructure.”
In a statement explaining the bill’s introduction, Sen. Rockefeller said, “We must protect our critical infrastructure at all costs – from our water to our electricity, to banking, traffic lights and electronic health records – the list goes on.” (It’s the “at all cost” liberal laundry service again. Scare, tax, spend, repeat.)
Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, who is co-sponsoring the bill, added, “If we fail to take swift action, we, regrettably, risk a cyber-Katrina.” (Olympia Snowe is NOT a republican. She is a RINO, and a liberal. She must go.)
Critics, however, have pointed to three actions Rockefeller and Snowe propose that may violate both privacy concerns and even constitutional bounds:
First, the White House, through the national cybersecurity advisor, shall have the authority to disconnect “critical infrastructure” networks from the Internet – including private citizens’ banks and health records, if Rockefeller’s examples are accurate – if they are found to be at risk of cyber attack. The working copy of the bill, however, does not define what constitutes a cybersecurity emergency, and apparently leaves the question to the discretion of the president. (Once again, the Obama power grab rears its ugly head. In Obama’s America, he or his people will CONTROL EVERYTHING. You will have no rights, privacy, security, personal property, wealth, or anything you associate with freedom and prosperity. Mr. Hussein Obama will start by deciding that conservative blogs and news sights are a “threat” to America (“threat to America” defined as “could potentially reveal the truth about Obama and his actions) and he will shut them down. Anything else on the internet that doesn’t dovetail with his agenda will soon be declared to be a “cybersecurity threat,” and will be shut down. It’s coming, People. Unless enough of us wake up and do what is necessary to stop it.)
Second, the bill establishes the Department of Commerce as “the clearinghouse of cybersecurity threat and vulnerability information,” including the monitoring of private information networks deemed a part of the “critical infrastructure.”
Third, the legislation proposes implementation of a professional licensing program for certifying who can serve as a cybersecurity professional.
And while the critics concede the need for increased security, they object to what is perceived as a dangerous and intrusive expansion of government power. (Are you seeing this? This is just a small piece of what adds up to marxist, totalitarian control. Don’t doubt me on this…)
“There are some problems that we face which need the weight of government behind them,” writes Seltzer in eWeek. “This is not the same as creating a new federal bureaucracy setting rules over what computer security has to be and who can do it.” (Uh, what? It sounds like you’re saying there is no BLACK and WHITE, just white and melanin impaired.)
“It’s an incredibly broad authority,” CDT senior counsel Greg Nojeim told the Mother Jones news website, troubled that existing privacy laws “could fall to this authority.”
Jennifer Granick, civil liberties director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, told Mother Jones the bill is “contrary to what the Constitution promises us.” (The U.S. Constitution be damned if you’re a liberal or B. Hussein Obama. They have already discarded the constitution and no one is doing a D@#$ thing about it.)
According to Granick, granting the Department of Commerce oversight of the “critical” networks, such as banking records, would grant the government access to potentially incriminating information obtained without cause or warrant, a violation of the Constitution’s prohibition against unlawful search and seizure. (Duh. That’s exactly what they want. Big Brother. BIG BROTHER.)
“What are the critical infrastructure networks? The examples provided are ‘banking, utilities, air/rail/auto traffic control, telecommunications.’ Let’s think about this,” writes Seltzer. “I’m especially curious as to how you take the telecommunications networks off of the Internet when they are, in large part, what the Internet is comprised of. And if my bank were taken offline, I would think about going into my branch and asking for all of my deposits in cash.”
S. 778, which would establish the Office of the National Security Advisor, and S. 773, which provides for developing a cadre of governmental cybersecurity specialists and procedures, have both been read twice and referred to committee in the Senate.

The Wide Awake Patriot 
HR 1388 GIVE Act Aimed at “Re-Educating” and Indoctrinating Your Children
I started reading (yes, actually reading) the WHOLE bill last night. I’ve gotten about half way through it so far, and what I’ve seen so far SCARES THE LIVING CRAP OUT OF ME!
Here are some of things that scare me about what I’ve read so far:
The only way they’ll take my kids to these camps is over my cold, dead body.
I’m uncovering more and more bad stuff in this bill. Please read as much of this, and every other bill, as you have the opportunity to read. Expose what our corrupt politicians are trying to keep in the dark.
