o'illegal - California's Penal Code: Section 834b (immigration law)

From: burd Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2010 Subject: PC section 834b - California immigration law
reference: 
http://www.americanpatrol.com/REFERENCE/PENALCODE/834b-CA_PC.html  
Voter approved California law aimed at dealing with illegal aliens
Ever read California Penal Code 834b?  If not, educate yourself! 

PC§ 834b. INS Arrests

(a) Every law enforcement agency in California shall fully cooperate with the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service regarding any person who is arrested if he or she is suspected of being present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws.
(b) With respect to any such person who is arrested, and suspected of being present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws, every law enforcement agency shall do the following:
(1) Attempt to verify the legal status of such person as a citizen of the United States, an alien lawfully admitted as a permanent resident, an alien lawfully admitted for a temporary period of time or as an alien who is present in the United States in violation of immigration laws. The verification process may include, but shall not be limited to, questioning the person regarding his or her date and place of birth, and entry into the United States, and demanding documentation to indicate his or her legal status.
(2) Notify the person of his or her apparent status as an alien who is present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws and inform him or her that, apart from any criminal justice proceedings, he or she must either obtain legal status or leave the United States.
(3) Notify the Attorney General of California and the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service of the apparent illegal status and provide any additional information that may be requested by any other public entity.
(c) Any legislative, administrative, or other action by a city, county, or other legally authorized local governmental entity with jurisdictional boundaries, or by a law enforcement agency, to prevent or limit the cooperation required by subdivision (a) is expressly prohibited. 
 
So, why is the Obama administration suing Arizona today when CA has tougher laws on illegal immigration? And CA takes it a step further by prohibiting sanctuary cities (like SF and LA) from interfering with the enforcement of immigration laws as well (3c). Is the Obama administration going to sue Calif, Rhode Island, Missouri and all the other states with existing laws or just the states that enforce
 them?

Looming threat from illegals: terror
By BRIGITTE GABRIEL

Last Updated: 10:01 AM, July 30, 2010, Posted at the New York Post on July 30, 2010

article source: http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/looming_threat_from_illegals_terror
_fxLo773X6OkZJXUCLXVIXJ


Arizonans will be grateful for some extra help from the National Guard, starting Sunday, in protecting the border and fighting drug violence -- especially now that a federal judge has blocked key parts of their recent illegal-immigration law.  But there's a more pressing border issue that goes beyond Arizona: the alliance between drug cartels and groups that aim to smuggle terrorists into our country through the Mexican border.


Last week's detonation along the Texas-Mexico border of an Improvised Explosive Device similar to those used in Iraq and Afghanistan strongly suggests that Hezbollah is working with the drug cartels -- and that America is unsafe.  Law-enforcement officials and intelligence analysts believe that terrorist groups like al Qaeda have been working with such gangs as the ruthless MS-13 to smuggle terrorists into America.

Intel briefings and other sources suggest that al Qaeda spends as much as $50,000 to smuggle in a single terrorist, while Hezbollah, funded by Iran, pays as much as $10,000.

Indeed, some analysts estimate that thousands of terrorists have already been smuggled into the United States through the Mexican border since 9/11.  Last year, a worker at the Mexican embassy in Beirut was caught selling visas to enter Mexico for $3,000 apiece.  Hezbollah terrorists know that once they get to Mexico they can make their way here through our southern border.

A congressional report on homeland security acknowledges this threat.  The report, "A Line in the Sand: Confronting the Threat at the Southwest Border," addresses the alarming rate at which the number of aliens referred to as "other than Mexican," or OTMs, are crossing the border.  Many OTMs are nationals and terrorists from countries such as Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Chechnya, Afghanistan and Iraq.

Our biggest threat is that a nuclear, dirty or biological bomb could be smuggled by OTMs into America soon.

Hezbollah, the most sophisticated terrorist organization today, trains al Qaeda members in centers in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley before they leave for terror destinations via Syria, my sources there report.  The organization manufactures IEDs in Lebanon and has perfected their use since the 1980s.

An alliance between the drug cartels and Hezbollah is a symbiotic, win-win situation for both parties.  Hezbollah can share its expertise in tunnel-engineering and bomb-making with the drug cartels.  The cartels can then smuggle dealers and drugs through these tunnels, several of which have been discovered in recent years, while Hezbollah smuggles terrorists and munitions to be used in terror missions in America.

Hezbollah is Iran's proxy army and is trained by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.  As Iran and America head into a confrontation over Iran's nuclear program, Iran must ensure it has sufficient operatives in America to retaliate when the time comes, and this alliance provides the means to get them here.  That time is coming faster than we think.

Intelligence analysts think Hezbollah has at least 11 cells in America, including one in New York City.  If provoked, perhaps via an Israeli strike, it is likely Iran will retaliate not only against Israel but against its strongest ally.

Our border-security crisis extends beyond illegal workers and employers looking for cheap labor.  A suitcase bomb or biological bomb detonated in any major city in America would kill untold numbers of civilians and wreak havoc on our economy.  Health care, prison housing and other costs for illegal immigrants would ultimately pale in comparison to such devastation.

Terrorists now have operational centers all over South AmericaThey're learning Spanish and obtaining fake Spanish papers in case they're caught crossing over the Mexican border.  The Tri-Border region of Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay in South America has become a haven for international Islamic extremists.  A State Department report notes that Hezbollah and other terrorist groups were using bases in Latin America to "raise millions of dollars annually via criminal enterprises."

Americans must put politics aside and act now to secure the Mexican border.  Arizona families are in need of protection from the drug violence, but we must protect the millions of Americans living in major cities who are threatened by a suitcase bomb or the like smuggled through the Mexican border.

The time for bickering is over.

Bombshell Video: Wikileaks contacted Obama Admin. before release of documents but got no response
By Floyd Brown, Western Journalism


Obama is downplaying the importance of the leak of thousands of classified documents. But he won?t be able to laugh off the latest allegations. We have now learned that with quick action he and his White House Staff may have been able to limit the damage, but they were too incompetent to act.

The video interview below blows this scandal wide open.

When asked by Judge Andrew Napolitano of Fox News why he should not be held responsible for potential deaths caused by the leak, Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, answered that he contacted the White House about the leaks before they were released and asked them to review them. The White House?s response?

Nada.

They were too busy golfing, partying with Paul McCartney and spending the summer vacationing. In subsequent email conversations Assange?s people clarified that they sought this response through the New York Times.

Obama's Wikileaks Scandal and Coverup

 



COURT: STUDENT CAN BE EXPELLED FOR CHRISTIAN BELIEFS

Fox News Radio


A federal judge ruled in favor of a public university who removed a Christian student over her belief that homosexuality is morally wrong. The decision, according to Julea Ward?s attorneys, could result in Christian students across the country being expelled from public university for similar views.

?It?s a very dangerous precedent,? Jeremy Tedesco, legal counsel for the conservative Alliance Defense Fund told FOX News Radio. ?The ruling doesn?t say that explicitly, but that?s what is going to happen.?

U.S. District Judge George Caram Steeh dismissed Ward?s lawsuit against Eastern Michigan University. She was removed from the school?s counseling program because she refused to counsel homosexual clients.

The university contended she violated school policy and the American Counseling Association code of ethics.

?Christian students shouldn?t be expelled for holding to and abiding by their beliefs,? said ADF senior counsel David French. ?To reach its decision, the court had to do something that?s never been done in federal court: uphold an extremely broad and vague university speech code.?

OMB nominee got $900,000 after Citigroup bailout
By Jim McElhatton, The Washington Times

President Obama's choice to be the government's chief budget officer received a bonus of more than $900,000 from Citigroup Inc. last year -- after the Wall Street firm for which he worked received a massive taxpayer bailout.

The money was paid to Jacob Lew in January 2009, about two weeks before he joined the State Department as deputy secretary of state, according to a newly filed ethics form. The payout came on top of the already hefty $1.1 million Citigroup compensation package for 2008 that he reported last year.

Administration officials and members of Congress last year expressed outrage that executives at other bailed-out firms, such as American International Group Inc., awarded bonuses to top executives. State Department officials at the time steadfastly refused to say if Mr. Lew received a post-bailout bonus from Citigroup in response to inquiries from The Washington Times.

But Mr. Lew's latest financial disclosure report, provided by the State Department on Wednesday, makes clear that he did receive a significant windfall.

The Left and Its Talking Points
By Russell Cook, American Thinker

The Journolist story demonstrates active, covert collaboration among leftists to plant political themes in the media. Long-time listeners of conservative talk radio are aware of audio montages where old-line media talking heads repeat verbatim a set of words that can't be anything other than shared talking points. A perfect example was the 2000-era Dick Cheney "gravitas" showcased by Rush Limbaugh.

It's one thing to ask how proper reporting of Obama might have changed the outcome of the election. I'll ask a bigger question: Did old-line media journalists share talking points to prop up the global warming issue?

In his August 2007 American Thinker article "Global Warming Propaganda Factory," Christopher Alleva described the coordinated efforts of the Society of Environmental Journalists:

I have often wondered how the media are in such lock step on Global Warming. Well, I wonder no more. Recently, I came across a website for the Society of Environmental Journalists (SEJ). This website is veritable tool box for any budding reporter assigned to the global warming beat. If you're an editor at the Palookaville Post, all you have to do is send your cub reporters to this site and they'll have everything they need to write an article that fits the template and action line perfectly.

o'overwhelm - Columbia Plan (OBAMA's College Mate's Explanation)

From: hh Sent: Friday, July 30, 2010 (emphasis added -- rfh)


WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: Overwhelm the system!


WAYNE ALLYN ROOT

Barack Obama is no fool.  He is not incompetent.  To the contrary, he is brilliant.  He knows exactly what he's doing.  He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within. 

Barack Obama is my college classmate ( Columbia University , class of '83).   As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University.  They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands.  Add up the clues below.  Taken individually they're alarming.  Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government.  Why not?  They have no responsibility to pay for it.

-- Universal health care.  The health care bill had very little to do with health care.  It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions.)   Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt.  What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government.  Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?

-- Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming.  It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors.  Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants.  They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power.  The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around."

-- Make Puerto Rico a state.  Why?  Who's asking for a 51st state?  Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression?  Certainly not American taxpayers.  But this has been Obama's plan all along.  His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.

-- Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants.  Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America.  But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government.  Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.

-- Stimulus and bailouts.  Where did all that money go?  It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country.  It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues.   It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions.)   A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues.)  All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America. 


The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful.  The ends justify the means.


-- Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators.  Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama.)  Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government.  Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.

With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.

Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Obama using the Cloward and Piven Plan.

o'humor - Teacher Arrested - shocking revelation

Math Teacher Arrested

A public school teacher was arrested today at Washington International International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a calculator. At a morning press conference the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement.


He did not identify the man who has been charged by the Federal Police with carrying weapons of maths instruction. 'Al-gebra is a problem for us' the Attorney General said. 'They desire solutions by means and extremes and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns' but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country.


As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say "There are 3 sides to every triangle." When asked to comment on the arrest President Obama said 'If God had wanted us to have better Weapons of Maths Instruction he would have given us more fingers and toes.'


Union leaders told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by a Democratic President.

o'scamcare - Are the Elderly and Disabled Expendable?

From: hh Sent: Friday, July 30, 2010
 

Dear Policy Patriots -

The War on Seniors. If you're on Medicare or if you soon will be, the future doesn't look great. You and 46 million Americans just like you are going to shoulder more than half the cost of health reform through reductions to Medicare spending. And you will bear additional burdens through indirect taxes on everything from drugs to wheelchairs and crutches.

If you are one of the 11.5 million members of Medicare Advantage plans, you may have already noticed the changes. According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, "across the country, dozens of private insurers...are preparing to pare dental, vision and certain prescription-drug coverage starting next year."

The chart below shows how cuts in spending will affect seniors in conventional Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans. It shows a little bit of pain at first, ratcheting even higher through time. It's as though politicians think seniors are like the proverbial frog in the sauce pan. If you turn the heat up slowly, the frog gets boiled before he realizes he's in trouble.

Sources: National Center for Policy Analysis and
the Congressional Budget Office

Redistributing from Old to Young. Since the enactment of Social Security in the 1930s and Medicare in the 1960s, Americans have lived by a simple compact: younger generations will pay the taxes necessary to support older generations, and, when they're old, the young will provide for them. If ObamaCare is permitted to go forward, there will be a reverse redistribution of health care resources from the elderly to the young. As a Senior Fellow from the left-leaning Brookings Institution has explained, "We badly need to...reallocate resources from the elderly to younger families."

Coming Soon: A Two Tiered Health Care System. As Joe Newhouse argued in Health Affairs recently, to follow its mandate the agency responsible for constraining Medicare costs will have to cause Medicare fees to fall further and further behind what private insurers pay. This means that seniors and the disabled would look increasingly less attractive to providers than higher paying private sector patients. In the worst case, Medicare enrollees could find that their access and quality of care is no better than the Medicaid enrollees who are compelled to rely on community health centers and safety net hospitals for their care.

The Spin from Washington. The Obama Administration has alleged that cutting Medicare benefits now will strengthen Medicare in the future. Said Nancy-Ann DeParle, head of the White House's Office of Health Reform, "I'm sure that some of those additional benefits have been nice, but I think what we have to look at here is what's fair and what's important for the strength of the Medicare program long term."

That's a nice story, but it's not the truth. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that health care reform will cut Medicare spending by more than $523 billion. These Medicare cuts aren't going to shore up Medicare's future; they are going to create a new entitlement program - taxpayer-funded health insurance for young Americans. The numbers tell the truth: during the next ten years, ObamaCare will spend $938 billion to expand health care for low-income Americans. To pay for it, ObamaCare will cut $523 billion from Medicare and, hardest hit, approximately $200 billion from Medicare Advantage. ObamaCare will also levy new taxes, including higher Medicare taxes.

Good Advice from Snopes

The man that sent this information is a computer tech.  He spends a lot of time clearing the junk off computers for people and listens to complaints about speed.  All forwards are not bad, just some. Be sure to read the very last paragraph!

Please read :
By now, I suspect everyone is familiar with
www.snopes.com and/or www.truthorfiction.com for determining whether information received via email is just that:  true/false or fact/fiction.  Both are excellent sites.

Advice from Snopes.com   Very important!

1) Any time you see an E-Mail that says forward this on to ' 10 ' (or however many) of your friends, sign this petition, or you'll get bad luck, good luck, you'll see something funny on your screen after you send it, or whatever, it almost always has an E-Mail tracker program attached that tracks the cookies and E-Mails of those folks you forward to.

The host sender is getting a copy each time it gets forwarded and then is able to get lists of 'active ' E-Mail addresses to use in SPAM E-Mails, or sell to other Spammers.  Even when you get emails that demand you send the email on if you' re not ashamed of God/Jesus .....that ' s E-mail tracking and they' re playing on our conscience.  These people don' t care how they get your email addresses - just as long as they get them.  Also, emails that talk about a missing child or a child with an incurable disease  "how would you feel if that was your child"....E-mail Tracking!!!  Ignore them and don't participate!

2) Almost all E-Mails that ask you to
add your name and forward on to others are similar to that mass letter years ago that asked people to send business cards to the little kid in   Florida who wanted to break the Guinness Book of Records for the most cards. All it was, and all any of this type of E-Mail is, is a way to get names and 'cookie ' tracking information for telemarketers and Spammers - - to validate active E-Mail accounts for their own profitable purposes.

You can do your Friends and Family members a GREAT favor by sending this information to them; you will be providing a service to your Friends, and will be rewarded by not getting thousands of spam E-Mails in the future!

Do yourself a favor and STOP adding your name(s) to those types of listings regardless how inviting they might sound!...or make you feel guilty if you

Don t!...it ' s all about getting email addresses - nothing more!


You may think you are supporting a GREAT cause, but you are NOT!  Instead, you will be getting tons of junk mail later and very possibly a virus attached! Plus, we are helping the Spammers get rich! Let's not make it easy for them!

Also: E-Mail petitions are NOT acceptable to Congress or any other organization - I.e. Social security, etc.
To be acceptable, petitions must have a signed signature and full address of the person signing the petition, so this is a waste of time and you're just helping the Email trackers.

Supreme Court Ruling Victory for Second Amendment

On June 28, 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of gun rights in the landmark case of McDonald v. City of Chicago. 

Recognizing the major implications of the ruling for the legality of restrictive gun laws not only in Chicago, but also in other cities all across America, Congressman Hunter actively supported an amicus curiae (friend of the court) brief in 2009.  The brief was in support of upholding the Second Amendment as a fundamental individual right applicable to the states and local governments. 

 "As an outdoorsman and gun owner myself, I believe the rights of law-abiding citizens to defend themselves should be protected," said Hunter. "At long last, the Supreme Court has upheld the constitutional right to keep and bear arms for all Americans."

The Supreme Court's decision requires a federal appeals court to reconsider their 2009 ruling upholding Chicago's handgun ban.  While the appeals court is not required to change their decision, it is highly expected they will.

     

Keep Public Access to Miramar Gun Range

"Both the Marine Corps and the community stand to benefit from reopening the range, and I will continue making every effort to ensure it remains accessible to the public." - Rep. Hunter

In the FY2011 Defense Authorization Act, Congressman Hunter was successful in offering an amendment that would require the Marine Corps to finish its environmental review of the gun range at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar no later than the end of this year.  The range was closed two years ago after lead shot was discovered beyond range boundaries.

The amendment also requires the Marine Corps to consider reopening the range while the assessment is being conducted.  "San Diego area families have enjoyed recreational shooting and received quality firearm instruction at the Miramar shooting range," said Hunter.  "Its indefinite closure has denied these families and our Marines one of the few locations available for trap and skeet shooting, as well as recreational marksmanship." 

The FY2011 Defense Authorization Act, which includes the amendment, is awaiting consideration by the Senate.


    A strong supporter of 2nd Amendment rights, Congressman Hunter has cosponsored the following legislation:

H.R.197 - Requires the states to recognize each others' carry permits;

H.R. 1074 - Revises outdated restrictions on interstate firearm business, including restrictions on out-of-state purchases;

 H.R. 2193 - Ensures the Department of Defense does not unnecessarily restrict ammunition shell casings sales;

H.R. ___ - Permits bankruptcy debtors to exempt firearms used primarily for personal use from the claims of creditors.

Big Brother - "Top Secret America": The Rest Of The Story by Chuck Baldwin, July 27, 2010

"Top Secret America": The Rest Of The Story
By Chuck Baldwin, July 27, 2010

This column is archived at http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/home/?p=1926

The Monday, July 19, 2010, edition of The Washington Post featured an investigative report entitled "Top Secret America," with the subtitle, "A hidden world, growing beyond control." The report begins, "The top-secret world the government created in response to the terrorist attacks of Sept.11, 2001, has become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work.
 
"These are some of the findings of a two-year investigation by The Washington Post that discovered what amounts to an alternative geography of the United States, a Top Secret America hidden from public view and lacking in thorough oversight. After nine years of unprecedented spending and growth, the result is that the system put in place to keep the United States safe is so massive that its effectiveness is impossible to determine.
 
"The investigation's other findings include:
 
*Some 1,271 government organizations and 1,931 private companies work on programs related to counterterrorism, homeland security and intelligence in about 10,000 locations across the United States.
 
*An estimated 854,000 people, nearly 1.5 times as many people as live in Washington, D.C., hold top-secret security clearances.
 
*In Washington and the surrounding area, 33 building complexes for top-secret intelligence work are under construction or have been built since September 2001. Together they occupy the equivalent of almost three Pentagons or 22 U.S. Capitol buildings--about 17 million square feet of space.
 
*Many security and intelligence agencies do the same work, creating redundancy and waste. For example, 51 federal organizations and military commands, operating in 15 U.S. cities, track the flow of money to and from terrorist networks.
 
*Analysts who make sense of documents and conversations obtained by foreign and domestic spying share their judgment by publishing 50,000 intelligence reports each year--a volume so large that many are routinely ignored."
 
On the surface, the Post report appears to be a valiant effort by a major mainstream newspaper (second in influence to only the New York Times) to expose widespread government abuse and chicanery. But don't get too excited yet.
 
In Joel Skousen's World Affairs Brief (July 23, 2010), Skousen writes, "The [Post] series has just enough tantalizing information to sell a lot of papers, but almost nothing that exposes the illicit side of US operations--a large portion of which is involved in recruiting, training, and running covert agents--only a small portion of which are spying on real enemies. A lot of spying targets our allies and patriotic Americans who the government worries could someday provide a source of rebellion against the growing totalitarian state."
 
Skousen further charges that there is a "dark side" to "each agency of [federal] law enforcement." This "dark side" involves "a lot of compartmentalization, front activities, hidden budgets and false stories in order to keep honest government employees and agents from knowing what's going on behind their backs."
 
Skousen continues: "What few do get a glimpse into government's dark side are warned off with threats, some subtle and some lethal--threats which send a chilling message to others to not 'ask too many questions.'" Skousen then quotes the Post report as saying that since 9/11, the NSA (National Security Agency) has grown to where it now consumes "1.7 billion pieces of intercepted communications every 24 hours: emails, bulletin board postings, instant messages, IP addresses, phone numbers, telephone calls and cellular conversations."
 
Concerning all those government organizations and private companies working on counterterrorism projects that the Post report refers to, Skousen writes, "Once again, the series tells us nothing about the substance of what they do, much of which is unsavory and illegal."
 
Skousen goes on to say, "What [the Post report] won't tell you is that almost a third of these [NSA] operations are dedicated to black operations against Americans and other Western governments who need to be surveilled in order to control them and keep them from resisting the agenda of the New World Order. Much expense is allocated to spying on the unsavory private behavior of Congressmen, and even State officials--building compromising dossiers on people who influence the political process so they can be coerced into compliance when necessary."
 
Skousen also chides the Post report for failing "to show how connected certain companies are to the mercenary contractor explosion that is growing into a force that will eventually be used to threaten individual liberties at home. The Powers That Be don't need to hire foreign armies to clamp down on American dissidents. They are training hundreds of thousands of mercenary Americans to do it and using foreign wars to sort out who is ruthless enough or unprincipled enough to take orders without questions--similar to the way the Nazis sorted and selected those who would form the Brownshirt and SS brigades."

In short, while claiming to expose the federal government's "hidden world," the Post report actually does little to uncover the illegal and dark activities that Washington employs against the US citizenry, and by so doing serves more to cover up this sinister activity. Even so, do you not find it more than a little interesting just how few media sources did anything to pick up the Post report? Did you read any of this in your local paper? Did you see anything of this on CNN or Fox News? Come on, folks! You are aware that most of the media outlets (including network television) in this country obtain the vast majority of their "news" from The New York Times and The Washington Post, are you not? So, how convenient is it that this report (such as it is) was virtually ignored?
 
As I've said in speaking engagements--both large and small--all over America, We have more to fear from Washington, D.C., than from Tehran or Baghdad, or from any other foreign entity. America's founders understood this and tried to warn the American people accordingly. For example, Daniel Webster warned, "There is no nation on earth powerful enough to accomplish our overthrow. Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence. I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men and become the instruments of their own undoing."
 
The protection of the people from the totalitarian tendencies of their own central government in Washington, D.C., is why the framers of the Constitution included the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights. The Second Amendment was never about duck hunting or target shooting; it was all about the American citizenry being prepared to defend itself against its own federal government. The founders' distrust of the central government is why they attempted to divide the power and authority of government into three separate branches. They expected the three branches to compete against each other and to hold each other in check and balance against governmental abuse. And this is also why the individual states each maintained their own sovereignty and independence when creating the central government in 1787, because, at the end of the day, it is going to be the states that form the final fortress for freedom.
 
For all intents and purposes, the three branches of the federal government have done nothing to prevent the massive expansion of unconstitutional governance by Washington, D.C. The passage of the Seventeenth Amendment was the beginning of the end, as far as separated power was concerned. Neither has it made much difference which political party was in power in DC. The unlawful expansion of federal power has continued under both. This means that there are only two remaining protections against absolute federal tyranny: 1) strong, independent, and defiant State governments, and, 2) a determined and fully armed citizenry.
 
The Washington Post report (for all its failures) should serve to remind the American people of just how vulnerable we are (and have always been) to totalitarian government, how fragile liberty and freedom are, and how necessary it is that we remain eternally vigilant to resist the machinations of power-mad Machiavellians in Washington, D.C.

o'illegal - Hasta La Vista (letter to LA Times)

From: gg Sent: Saturday, July 24, 2010
      Not a happy California Camper, you can feel Mr. Edwards anger 'Amp-up' as he vents.  He speaks well for the majority of Americans.  I live with the minority Anglo population in So. Cal./Baja Norte where the line dividing Mexico and California is marked by a steel fence but blurred by politics.  Many of our civic leaders cow to the Hispanic majority whether it is good for the community or not.  The result is the highest unemployment rate in the country.  Arizona is not far behind in border area.  AZ SB 1070 should be a wake-up call for all states along the border, North & South.  The Federal government is in the 'dumper' and is making every effort to drag every state down with it. -- GG
 
 
The following was a letter to the editor of the LA Times.

Hector,

I can't believe that a major metropolitan paper like the LA Times would publish drivel like your distortion-laden column I had the misfortune to read today.  The citizens of Arizona passed a law that makes it necessary to prove you are in their state LEGALLY.  They are tired of paying TWO BILLION taxpayer dollars a year in medical and  educational  benefits to people in their state ILLEGALLY.  They are  tired of the Mexican drug traffickers, kidnappings (389 last year), traffic accidents, and crime caused by ILLEGAL immigrants in their state.  They are tired of citizens of a foreign country overcrowding and  bankrupting their emergency rooms and schools.  They have the ABSOLUTE RIGHT to defend their state when the federal government fails to do so so just like I have the right to put three hollow-points in the chest of the guy who's trying to kick in my front door when the cops don't show up.

It has been the law in this country since 1940 that foreign nationals be able to produce proof that they are here LEGALLY by way of visa, green card, etc. This "Produce your papers" and the allusions to Nazi Germany is a bunch of dishonest claptrap.  If you took time to read the Arizona law (assuming you can read English) you would see that police officers may only inquire as to an individual's immigration status in  the course of a "legal contact."   The problem with you and Mexicans like you is the fact that you have this sense of entitlement that you can enter OUR COUNTRY as you please.  You come from a culture and a country with no respect for the law or the rule of law.  The United States is a sovereign nation with the ABSOLUTE RIGHT to decide who does and does not enter our country.

What amuses me the most is the fact that if our illegal immigration problem was due to the influx of SWEDES, you wouldn't have written ONE WORD in the defense of their rights?  It is only because they are Hispanics like you that you leap to their defense.  I find it ironic that you are truer to your Hispanic roots than you are to your American citizenship, especially since the Hispanic culture is a broke- ----, busted- ---, ignorant- ---, uneducated, going-nowhere culture and has been for the last 500 years, and in all likelihood, will be for the NEXT 500 years.

When I moved to California in 1969, Los Angeles was a clean prosperous city.  Now it's broke under the weight of massive entitlements.  Now we need concertina wire to protect our freeway signs from Hispano-moron graffiti "artists."  What an enlightened culture you come from that believes that vandalizing another's property is an art form.   Over 400 California families have lost loved ones to ILLEGAL immigrant  murderers.   40% of the criminals incarcerated in our prisons at CALIFORNIA TAXPAYER EXPENSE, are ILLEGAL immigrants.   Thank you so much for our overcrowded ERs, schools and freeways.   Thanks also for the gangs and the drive-by shootings.

If I want to enter Mexico, France, England, Germany or ANY country on this earth, I need to produce a passport to do so.   It's THEIR COUNTRY and I need to ask permission to do so.   HOW DARE you and your brethren think  that they have some God-given right to flout our laws and come into our country of their own accord?   You and people like you are the textbook example of why the fewer Mexicans we have in our country, the better our country will be.   We manage to produce a steady supply of  home-grown idiots on our own, thank very much (Exhibit A - Obama) good luck with your boycotts and our protests.   Just remember amigo, 70% of the people in Arizona and 65% of Americans LOVE this law.   Every time you put together thousands of protesters, you p--- off MILLIONS of people like me.

Hasta la vista, baby
Tom Edwards

values - NC legislature may ban Jesus

BREAKING:  YOU made N.C.'s largest paper:
'Jesus' guideline decried  (Raleigh News & Observer)

Raleigh, N.C. (Friday) -- Some lawmakers' offices have received faxed petitions asking members to reverse what critics call a ban on "the forbidden name of 'Jesus'" during prayers in the state House.

Earlier this week, House Speaker Joe Hackney named a committee of legislators to review the guidelines for prayer in the House chamber after a guest chaplain complained he was asked not to refer to Jesus.

The Rev. Ron Baity of Berean Baptist Church in Winston-Salem said he declined to give a nonsectarian prayer at the opening of a House session in late May. He gave the prayer he intended to give, but was then told his services were no longer needed, Baity told media outlets.

Hackney's office received a 180-page faxed petition Tuesday filled with signatures of people who say a prohibition on prayers "in Jesus name" is unconstitutional.  [Chaps note: Nearly 1,000 comments were included.]

"Jesus is not an illegal word, the Bible is not a banned book and evangelistic speech is not a crime," said the letter, signed by Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt of The Pray In Jesus Name Project, a Colorado-based group.

Hackney spokesman Bill Holmes said at least one other House member had also received the fax.  [Chaps note: all 170 members will soon.]

The eight-member bipartisan committee will review guidelines for prayers in the chamber. Each day's session typically begins with a nonsectarian prayer from an invited House member or volunteer member of the clergy.  [Original story here.]

o'illegal - profiling: All European Life Died in Auschwitz

From: kd Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2010
The following is a copy of an article written by  Spanish writer Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez and published in a Spanish newspaper on Jan. 15 2008.  It doesn't take much imagination to extrapolate the message to the rest of  Europe - and possibly to the rest of the world. 
=====================================================

REMEMBER AS YOU READ -- IT WAS IN A SPANISH PAPER, Date:  Tue. 15 January 2008 14:30 

ALL EUROPEAN LIFE DIED IN AUSCHWITZ By Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez 

I walked down the street in Barcelona , and suddenly discovered a terrible truth - Europe died in Auschwitz ... We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims.  In  Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent.  We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world. 

The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world. These are the people we burned. 

And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty, due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride. 

They have blown up our trains and turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime. 

Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts. 

And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition. 

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs. 

What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe!! 
 
A  lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves.

   b.  Grandma Moses
   c.  Michael Jordan
   d.  Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40 

 10. In 1998, the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by:

11.  On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked; two were used as missiles to take out the World Trade Centre and of the remaining two, one crashed into the US Pentagon and the other was diverted and crashed by the passengers.  Thousands of people were killed by:

   a:  You guessed it - A Muslim male extremist between the age of 17 and 40

No, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, 
do you?  So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people.  They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honour winner and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling.

What were you doing in the last hour while the U.S. Gov't spent $188 Million Dollars of our money!  (Every Hour, Every Day!) (Apr11)   In 8 years, President Bush added $5 trillion to the national debt; President Obama, according to a revised Dec11 GAO report, added $4T+ to the U.S. deficit in 2011 alone!  The GAO estimates the deficit, including o'scamcare & mandates, may grow from $15T+ to over $26T+!  UPDATE: A little-noticed event occurred at approximately midnight on Monday, October 31, 2011.  The National Debt exceeded the GDP!  Imagine what these numbers are going to be now that Obama is reelected!

A trillion seconds pass in 31,688 years.  At $1/sec it would take 41,194 years just to pay off o'tax'n spend's new Feb12-Feb13 added debt - 538,696 years to pay only the national debt or 4,404,632 years to settle the debt+unfunded liabilities!

"Over the last four years our national debt has risen nearly $6 trillion, and just last week the debt topped an astounding $16 trillion.  To put that in perspective, $16 trillion is enough money to fund the US military, along with the military of every NATO country combined… for the next sixteen years!  Government spending is projected to hit $3.8 trillion this year alone.  Even after every tax dollar paid by Americans has been counted, the government will still overspend by another $1.13 trillion.  Every single second of the day our government spends over $12,000.  So in the time it takes you to read this article, roughly five minutes, our government has spent $3.6 million.  It take four seconds for the government to spend what the average American earns in an entire year."  (source: by Tim Phillips 17Sep12 at TownHall.com)
    "Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself.  They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence … From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, and tendencies prove that to insure peace, security and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable . . . the very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that is good." -- George Washington

Thousands of Deadly Islamic Terror Attacks Since 9/11
     It has been suggested that o'who?, the clown, and 'those who surround him' are not the bumbling fools they appear to be.  Nor are they one of the 'Three Stooges' but rather are shrewd implementation/drivers and fellow-travelers of policies designed to disarm the citizenry & collapse the American economy.  Why?  o'nocchio's grandiose scheme to "fundamentally transform America" is more than simple campaign rhetoric as can be seen by his use of "enabling acts" to circumvent the Constitution of the United States.  As Ollie used to say, "Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into."
