The first step in the process is to find a suitable place in the animal’s habitat where you can leave food out in the open. Pretty soon, the animals will find the food, eat it and will return again to see if there is more. Within a short period of time, the animals will come to that same location almost every day to eat the free food.

When the animals get used to coming every day, the rancher, farmer or game warden can install a fence down one side of the location where the animals come to eat. When they get used to seeing the fence, the wild animals will return and eat the food that is left for them. At some point, another side to the fence is installed. The animals will eventually get used to the new section of fence and will continue to return again and again to eat the free food. The process is continued until all four sides of the fence have been installed to form a compound, with an open gate installed in the final side.  The wild animals, having become accustomed to getting free food at the location, will go through the open gate and enter the fenced in area to eat the food. 

When the entire herd has come through the gate to eat in the fenced in area, the gate is then slammed shut and the whole herd is captured in the compound.  They have now lost their freedom. At first, some of the animals run around trying to find an escape route, but eventually they tire and return to eating the free food.  They become so used to eating the free food that is left out for them that they either forget, or lose the desire, to forage or hunt for food in the wild. As time goes by, they learn to accept their captivity. 

This is similar to what is happening in America today. Moving ever so slowly towards socialism, our ever expanding and intrusive government bureaucracy is attracting more and more citizens and illegal aliens to the free food banquet at the federal trough, while at the same time adding sections of fences with increased governmental rules and regulations that will eventually take away their individual freedoms. Our so-called elected leaders keep handing out the free food on a regular basis in the form of federal grants, subsidies, affirmative action, supplemental income, rebates, stimulus packages, tax credits, and thousands of special programs designed to help particular groups of people who now see themselves as victims. Eventually, the recipients of these never ending and expanding social programs will come to rely on the federal government for their very existence.

Just like the wild animals mentioned earlier, it appears that a significant number of American citizens and illegal aliens are gradually becoming accustomed to feasting at the trough of big government and the number of people receiving government handouts on a regular basis is growing by millions every year. Unfortunately, it will not take long before a significant percentage of the American population becomes so used to receiving the federal assistance that is left out for them that they will either forget, or lose the desire, to escape the system and enjoy their freedoms and liberties.

The politburo in the new expanded American government will tell the people how much money they can earn, where they can go to school, what sodas they can drink, what foods they can’t eat, what kind of a car they can drive, where they can travel, what national ID card they must carry and it will impose any number of other restrictions on them. If we continue on this road to socialism, the American people will no longer be free. The question is: “Will they learn to accept their captivity at the hands of their new masters?” 

Thomas Jefferson said:  “A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have.” Americans must remember that we cannot fully enjoy our freedoms and liberties in America unless we keep our government limited. As our government grows and becomes more intrusive, as it is today, it is our freedoms and liberties that are becoming limited. Americans must remain vigilant in these trying times as there seems to be many traitorous elected officials in this country who would like to close the gate on our individual freedoms and liberties, as well as our nation’s sovereignty.

Our economy has been brought to its knees because of the disastrous fiscal policies of politicians from both major parties as well as their creation of government created private entities  like ‘Fannie Mae’ and ‘Freddie Mac’ that interfered with our country’s economic system. For decades, Republican and Democratic members of congress have insisted on spending more than they can tax or borrow and the Federal Reserve (a group of private bankers) has conspired with them by printing Trillions of dollars in new “Fiat Money,” which is backed up by absolutely nothing, to make up the difference. 

 

The President and Congressional leaders are calling the current proposed stimulus package “an investment in America's infrastructure” but that is simply not the truth. According to the Congressional Budget Office, only 3 percent, or just $30 billion of this entire package, is dedicated to road and highway spending. The stimulus package will, however, provide additional funding for 150 different federal programs, will create 32 new federal programs, will expand government employment and federal agency budgets, but it's still not clear if it will create any measurable number of new private sector jobs.

While the people of America cut back on their spending and struggle to make ends meet, congress’ new stimulus package will insure that government agencies and selected special interest groups will get more money to spend. This proposed legislation provides enough spending to give every man, woman, and child in America $2,700, or over $6,000 to every individual taxpayer. What did the American taxpayer get for the $ Trillion dollar plus bailout of Wall Street Firms and the Banks?  Absolutely Nothing! Unless you consider that the goal was to help some banks and Wall Street firms buy out other banks and Wall Street firms. To make matters worse, it was just reported that Wall Street execs gave themselves over $18 Billion in bonuses in 2008 as a reward for their failure, all with the taxpayers’ bailout money.

Robert Reich, one of President Obama’s chief economic advisors, spoke before the House Democrat Steering Committee recently and discussed the administration’s proposed new $850 billion plus stimulus package that would include the creation of new construction jobs to upgrade the nation’s roads and bridges. During the course of making his presentation, Mr. Reich said the following, and I quote: “I am concerned, as I’m sure many of you are, that these jobs not simply go to high-skilled people who are already professionals or to white male construction workers. … I have nothing against white male construction workers.” (I’m sure that some of Mr. Reich’s best friends are white male construction workers too!). He continued: “Criteria can be set so that the money does go to others, the long term unemployed minorities, women, people who are not necessarily construction workers or high-skilled professionals.”

Reich was basically telling the House democrats to create some sort of “criteria” in the new economic stimulus legislation that would insure that “white male construction workers” are somehow excluded or severely limited from receiving any of these funds. It is also interesting to note that not one of the members of this congressional committee objected to such obvious proposed racial and gender discrimination. Just imagine what would happen if a new Republican administration economic advisor told members of a congressional committee that they should develop “criteria” to exclude black male construction workers from receiving federal stimulus funds. It would be on the front page of every major newspaper in the country. Have you read about Reich’s racist remarks in any major newspapers or on your evening TV news?

Ever since the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1964 and the creation of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in 1965, the white male has become the unofficial target of the federal government. Over the last 40 plus years, congressional legislation and the federal courts have mandated affirmative action programs, hiring quotas and set-aside business quotas that give women and minorities preference over white males. Over the last 40 plus years, congress and the federal courts have manipulated the laws so much that by 2009 just about every person in America has now become a minority except the heterosexual white male.

Mr. Reich also stated that the new economic stimulus package should have “a high social return.” What the heck does that mean? It means that Reich and his accomplices in the new federal Politburo want to establish an official federal government discrimination policy against white males. They now intend to use official federal government “Racial and Gender Criteria” as a form of social engineering to determine which groups will be lucky enough to receive government money in order to achieve some sort of imaginary “high social return.”

Americans from all racial, gender and ethnic groups are being taxed to pay for this economic stimulus package, (yes: including white males). Therefore, every American should have equal access to the jobs created by this plan and none should be excluded because of their race or gender.

Martin Luther King, Jr., inspired a nation when he voiced his dream for a color-blind nation, a nation in which people would be judged by the content of their characters, "not the color of their skin." The answer to Robert Reich's proposed example of legalized government racism is the concept of Liberty with a limited, constitutional government that is devoted to the protection of individual rights rather than the claims of different racial, ethnic and other special interest groups.

Where Freedom and Liberty are present, individual achievement and competence should be rewarded, not the color of a person's skin, gender, ethnicity or sexual orientation.

At a time when our federal government is reporting record numbers of job losses in all sectors of the economy throughout the United States, I believe it is time for the American government to protect the American citizen workers by slowing the massive importation of foreign workers into the United States.

According to recent government statistics, in November of 2008 alone, 533,000 non-farm jobs were lost in this country, while at the same time, the Department of Homeland Security issued 138,000 new work permits and green cards (not including replacement or renewal documents) to foreign workers.

As millions of American citizens are losing their jobs, their own government keeps importing 138,000 foreign workers a month into the country to compete for jobs with it own citizens. How does this make any sense? If you think the 138,000 monthly figures for foreign workers sounds too high, a recently published Department of Homeland Security report showed that in 2007 alone, the United States government granted 744,531 permanent green cards to working-age adults ages 20-64, and another 912,735 new employment authorization documents to temporary foreign workers. That adds up to an annual rate of 1,657,266 new foreign workers (not counting the millions of illegal workers) added to our economy each year.

Incoming President Obama has proposed a stimulus package that is expected to initially cost anywhere from $700 billion to well over a $1 trillion with a goal of creating 3 million jobs in the next two years. Whether or not you support his plan, if it works, the creation of 3 million new jobs will be a welcome relief to those American citizen families who are now unemployed due to the economy. Unfortunately, there is a major flaw in the overall plan. During the implementation of this two year plan to create three million jobs, our current immigration system is poised to bring in more than 3 million additional foreign workers in the same two year period. This means that the hundreds of billions of American taxpayer dollars spent on new jobs for Americans won’t even create enough jobs to keep pace with the number of foreign workers we will still be importing into our weakened economy. A large portion of the American taxpayers’ money might even be used to keep these foreign workers employed in the USA at the expense of American workers.

Our current immigration system is predicated on the false assumption that there are millions of jobs Americans won’t do at almost every level of the skill ladder. This is not a logical assumption in even the best of economic times. When American citizen workers are already suffering from an economy that is losing jobs at a phenomenal rate, it doesn’t make any sense for our own government to continue a policy of importing large numbers of foreign workers into the country to compete with its own citizens for jobs that are becoming scarcer.

In these tough economic times, when more and more American citizen workers are suffering and losing their jobs, our government needs to take two important steps to protect its own citizens. The first step is to put more emphasis on removing illegal alien workers from our country by actually enforcing our current immigration laws and the second step is to temporarily suspend the importation of millions of foreign workers into the country until the economy can support them.

Definition of a Coup: "noun: a sudden and decisive change of government illegally or by force."

The Supreme Court has been asked again and AGAIN to force Barack Obama to show THE PEOPLE of America his REAL birth certificate which is under lock and key in Hawaii and which will - or will NOT - show THE PEOPLE that he, Barack Obama, is legally and constitutionally qualified, by being a "natural born" citizen, to be President of the United States.

The Supreme Court CONTINOUSLY refuses to force Obama to reveal his real birth certificate. The Governor of Hawaii SAYS that she has seen Barack Obama's birth certificate BUT she refuses to show it to THE PEOPLE of America. Barack Obama has been asked numerous times by THE PEOPLE to show us his true birth certificate and yet, he refuses to do so.

If Barack Obama is a NATURAL BORN citizen of this country then WHAT is he hiding? The only thing that he could be hiding is the fact that he is NOT a "natural born" citizen of this country and as such is NOT ALLOWED to be President.

THUS, what you have is the Supreme Court, the Democrat Party, the Republican Party, the Electoral College, the Federal AND State Judiciaries and others in this country PURPOSELY ignoring the fact that this person, who is going to be sworn in to become the 44th President of these United States MAY NOT BE Constitutionally allowed or Constitutionally qualified to hold this nation's highest office.

What do you call a situation like this? What do you call a situation like this where individuals in government who SHOULD be DEMANDING that this man PROVE his Constitutional qualifications for this nation's highest office remain silent?

The answer is simple, yet no one wants to call it what it is. It's called: A POLITICAL COUP.

When you have different individuals in various branches of government working together to Un-Constitutionally and ILLEGALLY place a person into political office ( the office of The President of The United States ) and all of those individuals and organizations of government KEEP QUIET about what they know to be true then what you have is a Political Coup for all of those who know - or seriously suspect - that Obama is not native born, but who have remained silent, have thus worked together to commit a crime against U.S. Constitution and The People of These United States.

What you are now witnessing in America is THE TAKING OF THE PRESIDENCY, via a Political Coup by a man, Barack Obama, who more than likely is not Constitutionally or Legally allowed to hold that office.

And those who know what is going on but who continue to remain silent?What are they?

TRAITORS TO THIS COUNTRY AND TO THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION!

This writer wonders just how much more of these traitorous actions the American People are going to swallow quietly and without protest like whipped dogs?

This article was submitted by an anonoymous writer.

 

Most Americans are aware of the fraud case involving Bernard Madoff, a Wall Stret financial advisor who is accused of swindling investors out of an estimated $50 billion in what is commonly called a “Ponzi Scheme.” Named after one of America’s greatest swindlers, Charles Ponzi, a “Ponzi Scheme” is a financial ruse that, for a time, appears to generate great returns from an investment when in fact it produces nothing. As the scheme continues to grow and attract new investors, it can appear to be very financially successful and those investors who get in and out early, oftentimes make a lot of money. Eventually, however, when no new victim investors can be found to put new money into the program, the scheme crashes and everyone who is still in it loses everything, as did most of Bernard Madoff’s investors.

Since the scheme made the news, American political leaders have pointed to the Madoff case as an example of what’s wrong with our country’s financial regulatory and oversight system. The politicians, the press and the investors want Madoff prosecuted and sent to jail for his crimes. Members of congress, both Republicans and Democrats, are outraged and are calling for more oversight of the financial industry. They want to know “who dropped the ball?” and how could such a massive fraud occur under the watchful eyes of federal government regulators?

Unfortunately, for decades many of these same political leaders and members of congress have been ignoring the two biggest “Ponzi Schemes” of all time. Schemes that make the Madoff scheme look like child’s play. The two “Ponzi Schemes” that pose the most danger to Americans are the government’s Social Security and Medicare programs. Congress has been routinely using the excess social security tax money that is collected to fund other programs to a point where the Social Security Trust Fund now consists of nothing more than a box of IOU’s and the unfunded Medicare costs continue to grow dramatically every year.

When the mandatory Social Security system was set up in 1935, there were 45-50 workers paying into the system for each retiree. Now there are only 3.4 workers for each retiree and the ratio continues to shrink. If nothing is done and congress fails to take remedial action, the rapidly expanding and underfunded Social Security and Medicare systems will collapse for lack of money just like the “Ponzi Scheme” of Bernard Madoff. Will members of congress demand that those responsible for the collapse of the Social Security and Medicare system be prosecuted and sent to jail? Will they want to know “who dropped the ball?” Of course not, because they will be the ones responsible.

Barack Hussein Obama has prevailed in the 2008 presidential election. Obama not only carried all the "blue" states that John Kerry won in 2004, he also flipped several "red" states, such as Colorado, Nevada, Florida and Virginia, delivering a crushing electoral defeat to John McCain. And the blame falls squarely on the GOP for allowing this Marxist to become president of the United States.

It has been interesting and amusing to read the numerous "post mortems" from conservative and liberal pundits alike. Yet not one of the post mortems has identified the real reason McCain got clobbered. It was not because of Sarah Palin, as many liberals claimed. Palin was the only thing that kept McCain in the game. It was not because middle America suddenly decided they like leftist solutions as opposed to conservative solutions. McCain offered few such solutions himself.

The reason Obama prevailed was because the GOP allowed a false narrative about Obama to stand — a narrative painting BHO as a moderate, reasonable, and competent legislator.

FIRST THINGS FIRST:

John McCain, for all his problems — deep distrust amongst conservatives, an unpopular Bush occupying the White House, an ill timed "fundamentals of the economy are strong" gaffe, and a less than stellar campaign team — could have put himself in a strong position to win with a single, courageous act: opposing the socialist "bailout." What would have been proof of a genuine free market Maverick, willing to stand and fight big spending socialism, instead turned into a Monty Python skit. McCain first ran with his instincts and stated he did not like the idea of a taxpayer bailout, then swiftly reversed himself — deciding it was his golden opportunity to "lead." He declared a phony "suspension" of his campaign and flew back to Washington to loudly promote this boondoggle. By doing so, not only did he look contrived and silly, McCain ended up on the exact same side of the issue as Nancy Pelosi, George Bush, Harry Reid, the GOP leadership and Barack Obama. And by being on the same side as Obama, his subsequent claims of prudent fiscal stewardship versus Obama's "tax and spend" liberalism rang exceedingly hollow.

This episode cost McCain dearly. After chipping away at Obama's lead all summer, after the negative publicity surrounding Obama and Jeremiah Wright, and then introducing Sarah Palin to America during the Republican National Convention, the wind was at McCain's back. Palin hit a home run in her speech, and McCain appeared quite clever for selecting her. The conservative base was starting to mobilize.

Then President Bush and Treasury Secretary Paulson announced a financial "crisis" to the world; and McCain (and the GOP leaders) crumpled like a cheap suit. Granted, there were other footprints on his John Thomas, such as the Spanish language ads touting his amnesty plan, his foolish call for the feds to usurp individual mortgages, and his cringe producing knocks against "big oil"; all which helped erode conservative enthusiasm. But the "bailout" debacle was the big one. McCain not only missed the opportunity to side with the people (70% strongly opposed), but he tied himself closer to Bush at a time when Bush's approval rating slumped from bad to worse. Within 10 days, the polls dramatically shifted from McCain up from 2 to 8 points, to an Obama lead, which was never relinquished.

That was John McCain's main contribution to his loss (other than being John McCain), but the entire GOP, including the RNC, McCain's advisors, the NRCC, the NRSC, and other various Republican organs failed as well. They not only failed to win, but more importantly, they failed to prevent a dyed in the wool, radical Marxist from ascending to the presidency. How? By not telling America that Barack Hussein Obama IS a dyed in the wool, radical Marxist!!! It is a nearly unforgivable crime to have failed to "put country first" and do everything in their power to keep this slippery and dangerous subversive from winning.

Had they exposed Barack Obama for who he really is, instead of bowing to the winds of political correctness and decorum, Obama and his democrat allies would have been beaten like ugly, red-headed stepchildren. Instead, they allowed Obama to dictate the narrative of his own life, knowing full well that the MSM was going to support him 100%. The ads that the GOP did run mentioning Bill Ayers were sporadic, and mostly ineffectual, because they never followed up on why it mattered. They never explained to the public that Bill Ayers is STILL a radical Marxist in every sense of the word, and was such when Obama "palled" around with him. They never explained that Obama and Ayers pushed anti-American, radical education "reform" together. They never wove it into the larger story line of Obama's entire life — a life full of radical associations, and his own Marxist activities. And they failed to clearly demonstrate how that radicalism is setting Obama's agenda this very day. It was an EPIC FAILURE on the part of the GOP!

THE REAL STORY:

Talk Radio has a massive audience, but it is a self selecting audience. Apolitical and swing voters generally do not tune in, and most liberals don't either. The only way for Obama's real narrative to have reached the masses who don't hang onto Rush's every word, and who don't spend their time reading Red State and Free Republic, was for the GOP hierarchy (including McCain) to raise hell about it. It was the only way the MSM was going to mention it. Instead we witnessed the spectacle of the RNC and McCain campaign scolding those in the Republican Party who tried to run such ads. And when a very brave congressman, Michelle Bachmann (R-MN), appeared on Chris Matthews' program and declared her suspicion that Obama may hold anti-American views, the NRCC pulled her funding and she was treated like a pariah in the party. Not one GOP leader rushed to her defense. It was a prime opportunity for Republicans to tell the world WHY Obama's views should be considered un-American. Instead, they cut and ran, just like they did from every Obama controversy.

No matter how many uppercuts talkers such as Mark Levin, Rush, Hugh Hewitt, and Savage delivered to Obama's chin, and no matter how much dirt the rightwing blogosphere uncovered, the powers that be in the Republican Party refused to join the fray, leaving the MSM to counter and gloss over anything negative about Obama that seeped into the national dialogue.

The Republicans have lost their nerve. Worse, they have lost their revulsion to socialism and Marxism and have devolved into politically correct, overfed capons. No other explanation suffices to illustrate their frightened, AWOL status on the following subjects:

Obama's mentor for roughly 10 years in Hawaii before he moved off to college was a man named Frank Marshall Davis. Obama reveals "Frank" as his respected mentor and adviser in Dreams of My Father, and recalls him fondly — nights of reading poetry together, drinking booze, and learning about the plight of blacks in America. Frank Marshall Davis was a radical Marxist and racist — and a pedophile. (Read all about Frank on Wikipedia here and in more detail from American Thinker here.)

Obama, in his first book Dreams, bluntly stated that once in college he actively sought out radicals as his friends. Quote: "To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists." How many of these radical and Marxist friends did the MSM seek out for interviews? Absolutely ZERO. (Read "Obama's Socialist Roots Run Deep" here.)

Obama was a member of the New Party in the early to mid 1990s. The New Party was a group of radical leftists founded in order to unite the Communists, the Socialist Workers Party, Community Organizers, and other various fringe groups into a more effective political party. There are photographs of Obama proudly standing with its leaders and articles in their publications celebrating his state Senate victory, and his membership in the NP. (More at Newsbusters here and Human Events here.)

Obama's African father, Barack Hussein Obama Sr. was a card carrying Marxist. Though as a child Barack did not know his father, once older he began serious correspondence with him. And he subsequently dedicated his first book to this man in 1995. Obama Sr., amongst other things, advocated the "communal ownership of land and the forced confiscation of privately controlled land," nationalizing foreign owned properties in his native Kenya, and "no limit to taxation if the benefits derived from public services by society measure up to the cost in taxation which they have to pay." Pure Marxism, and a heavy influence on Obama Jr. (PrestoPundit has a good primer on Sr.'s marxism here.)

Obama's very own mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was also a dedicated leftist her entire life. Obama credits her with having the most influence on his young life, saying "the dominant figure in my formative years... The values she taught me continue to be my touchstone when it comes to how I go about the world of politics." She has been described by her friends as a "fellow traveler" — code word for communist. (Townhall.com has more here.)

Obama married Michelle Robinson. While Michelle can certainly be charming, she had to learn on the campaign trail to not portray America as a greatly flawed and depressing country — which of course only her husband could fix. Twice she stated she was "for the first time proud of my country" before such nonsense reached the media and she was forced to backpedal and whitewash. Her admonition for women to reject careers in "corporate America" in favor of "community service" reeks of class warfare. Her Princeton college thesis is pathetic race victim pablum sprinkled with hackneyed socialism. (Slate dissects it brutally here.)

For twenty plus years Obama (later joined by wife and kids) sat in the pews of Trinity United Christian Church, home of his "great friend and mentor," Pastor Jeremiah Wright. Everyone is familiar with Wright's racist and anti-American rants that received some media coverage back in June. However, the larger story is that Rev. Wright and his "church" are devoted adherents to Black Liberation Theology. Black Liberation Theology is a particularly noxious and ardently Marxist worldview. And Barack chose this institution willfully and continues to heap praise on it, despite being forced to finally toss the good Reverend under the bus during his campaign. (Much more on BLT here and here.)

Barack Obama traveled to Kenya in 2006 as a sitting U.S. Senator and campaigned (illegally so) for socialist presidential candidate, Raila Odinga. Odinga was defeated, but due to his post election agitation, riots ensued and more than 1500 Kenyan citizens were murdered. Kofi Annan brokered a power sharing agreement to stop the violence and Odinga was appointed Prime Minister. This is a man who was so enamored with Fidel Castro that he named his first born son Fidel in his honor. (Newsweek's sanitized essay on Odinga here, and the real Obama/Odinga story here from the Washington Times.)

Obama, as we have found out from the unrepentant terrorist himself since the election, was much more than just "neighbors" with Bill Ayers. According to Bill, they are "family friends." That Obama was blatantly lying about the extent of their relationship is inarguable. But even the relationship that was "on record," as political allies in Chicago politics, and allies in getting their education "agenda" realized through the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, was highly exploitable. For starters, Ayers may have quit advocating bombings, but he never once stopped advocating Marxist dogma, especially as it applied to education in America. And Obama was in lockstep, going so far to give a glowing review of Ayers' 1997 book, A Kind and Just Parent, praising the Marxist gibberish as "a searing and timely account of the juvenile court system." It has also been shown that there is a very real possibility that Ayers either edited or co-wrote Obama's Dreams book. (NR's Stanley Kurtz has more on the Obama/Ayers working relationship.)

Obama has an ongoing relationship with Code Pink, the Marxist, anti-war outfit most famous for protesting outside of Walter Reed military hospital and at military recruitment offices. Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans was a principle Obama "bundler" during the campaign, raising tens of thousands of dollars, and arranging events for Obama. Even after Evans stormed the stage at a Palin speech and was arrested, the MSM refused to report on the links and friendship with Barack Hussein Obama. (FreeRepublic covered this topic best, here, here, and here.)

The above close associations are only a partial list, for brevity's sake. But there are many others, including radical islamist and former black panther Khalid al-Mansour, a man identified by civil rights leader (and Obama supporter) Percy Sutton as "sponsoring" Obama during his Harvard days. Obama denies knowing him, yet al-Mansour and Sutton told the media the opposite. Also, "close friend" Rashid al Khalidi, Black Liberation soulmate and anti-semite Louis Farrakhan, his self described "spiritual advisers" such as the Marxist priest Father Pfleger and Reverend James "house niggers" Meeks, official campaign artist and Marxist propagandist Shepard Fairey, and Communist Party USA board member Tim Wheeler, who was honored by Obama with his own blog on the official Obama/Biden campaign website; all remained virtual unknowns. It goes on and on.

So what prevented the GOP and the McCain campaign from exploiting the history of Barack Obama and telling the true story about his politics and worldview? Shouldn't the urge to prevent such a radical from gaining the presidency of this blessed nation have outweighed any fear of being labeled racists and fear mongers by Obama's cheering section in the MSM? Only a fool or a leftist could have been comforted by Obama's attempts to sound notes of moderation during the general election.

There was a reason that Obama received endorsements from North Korea's official news outlet, Cuba's Fidel Castro, Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, the Communist Party in the U.S. (CPUSA), France's Socialist Party, The New Black Panther Party, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the radical Palestinian party Hamas, British communist MP George Galloway, Libyan dictator Momar Kadafi, Calyspo Louie's Nation of Islam, Nicaraguan communist Daniel Ortega, and virtually every radical, leftist, socialist, and Marxist organization in existence.

Yet the GOP leaders watched in silence as conservatives in the blogosphere and talk radio documented these endorsements and associations and tied them to his voting record and his current policies. Policies that include radical gun control, giving out welfare and calling it tax cuts, pushing for surrender to the islamists in Iraq, lifting all restrictions on abortion, pushing an education policy right out of Bill Ayers' handbook, using Marxist Saul Alinsky's tactics for polluting the election process, threatening U.S. sovereignty with global UN tax proposals and unfettered illegal immigration, his call for a powerful "Civilian National Defense Force," his promises to gut missile defenses and many other high tech military systems, a radical energy agenda aimed at curbing fictitious "global warming," and his proposal for nationalizing health care.

Fellow conservatives, next time you find yourself enraged about a far reaching, socialist Obama policy which erodes and undermines our military capabilities, our free market economy, our sovereignty, or our Christian heritage, be sure to thank the leaders in the Republican Party. When it was time to stand and fight with us and expose the Marxist candidate to the American people, they chose the poisonous "safety" of political correctness instead; to their eternal shame and to our nation's catastrophic detriment.

Governor Paterson’s proposal to balance next year’s budget by adding a whole new group of taxes and fees on individuals, families and small businesses, is outrageous. At the same time, he is also proposing cutting TAP tuition grants for middle class college students and eliminating STAR real estate tax rebates for homeowners.If these proposed increases in taxes and fees are passed, New York’s taxpayers and homeowners will have to cut back on their spending because the new taxes will mean anywhere from $1,500 to $4,000 less money in their pockets.

To make matters worse, while the Governor plans on taking this money out of the pockets of hard working taxpaying New Yorkers, he has proposed giving a raise to welfare recipients so they will have more money in their pockets to spend.

How do these new taxes and fees make economic sense? The average New York State homeowner and taxpayer is paying more and more in taxes and fees every year. In some cases, real estate taxes (even with the STAR program) have been rising at a rate of between 10% and 15% a year, or more. Now the Governor intends to keep expanding state government and spending more money by raising taxes on almost everything, including non-diet soda. The governor’s proposal to eliminate the middle-class STAR rebate without also enacting a tax cap will increase the burden already borne by overtaxed New York homeowners.

I realize that New York State is in financial trouble and that Gov. Paterson is looking for new revenue sources, but looking at selective sources to raise revenues, including a tax on non-diet soft drinks, is not the answer. The Governor is using the possible health connection between non-diet soda and obesity, but I believe he’s just looking for additional revenues in any way he can get it. If that is the case, then why stop at non-diet soda? Why not tax cookies or Big Mac’s? Maybe people should have an annual weigh-in at the DMV office and be taxed if they are over a certain weight. How about taxing people who exercise a lot because they use more oxygen than the rest of us? How about taxing the Governor, State Senators and members of the Assembly when they fail to pass a balanced budget on time?

Less get realistic. In the tough economic times we face, it would make more sense to cut spending, improve accountability measures to ensure our tax dollars are spent wisely. Our elected officials at the federal, state and local levels must be made to understand that the taxpayers’ money is not unlimited. Giving welfare recipients a raise, while taxing the heck out of the rest of us is also not the answer.

I think it’s time for Governor Patterson and State lawmakers to start doing what the rest of us have to do. Live within your means and don’t spend more than you take in.

In 1726, Jonathan Swift wrote “Gulliver’s Travels” which was a story of an English surgeon, named Lemuel Gulliver, who takes to the high seas when his business in England fails. Gulliver's multiple adventures begin in a place called Lilliput when he awakens on a beach after a shipwreck only to find himself immobilized and tied down by thousands of tiny threads woven around him by the very tiny Lilliputians. If Gulliver had been awake, he could easily have snapped these threads individually or in small numbers and the Lilliputians would never have succeeded in taking control of Gulliver and making him their prisoner. Those tiny threads were multiplied and woven hundreds and thousands of times by the Lilliputians while Gulliver was sleeping. By the time Gulliver finally did wake up, it was too late. He was totally incapacitated and unable to do anything. He was at the mercy of his new masters, the Lilliputians.

Just like Gulliver, the American people appear to be either asleep or unaware of the growing danger of being incapacitated by America’s own version of the Lilliputians, who are nothing more than well financed traitors to this great country. Do not underestimate the danger. There is a network of prominent individuals and organizations, led by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), who are very much like the Lilliputians in Gulliver’s Travels. Pushing the globalist agenda of their masters, these individuals and organizations are extremely well financed by large international banking and corporate foundations and they currently pose more of a danger to America’s freedoms, liberties and sovereignty than any foreign enemy.

After World War II, this same network of individuals and organizations were instrumental in the founding of the United Nations, which was specifically designed to be used as an instrument in the creation of the New World Order. The American delegation to the San Francisco meeting that drafted the charter of the United Nations in 1949 included many CFR members such as Nelson Rockefeller, John Foster Dulles, John Mc Cloy and the Secretary-General of the conference, Alger Hiss, who was later arrested as a communist spy for Russia, as were several other prominent CFR members.

This growing network of individuals and non-governmental organizations (NGO’s) have been instrumental in using our country’s membership in the United Nations and other international organizations to circumvent the US Constitution by gradually expanding the role and power of these international organizations in an effort to diminish our own sovereignty. They advocate giving a wide variety of international organizations ever increasing powers at the expense of the sovereignty of individual nations. They also advocate for the consolidation of international finances and money creating powers into the hands of a few private international banks. All of this is proposed for the benefit of all mankind, of course, and they always push for global organizations to solve global issues.

The individual “threads of change” that America’s own traitorous Lilliputians use against their fellow Americans are varied and if examined individually would not appear to pose to any big danger to our way of life in America. But added together, these individual “threads of change” are placing American’s freedoms, liberties and sovereignty at risk. This is one reason that many Americans today feel that the American way of life is being attacked and challenged every single day from a hundred different directions and they are right.

Here are a few of the “threads of change” currently being woven around America’s freedoms, liberties and sovereignty by these traitorous enemies within out own country:

a. Millions of dollars in “legal” special interest bribes to our politicians every year;
b. 12-20 million illegal aliens allowed to remain in the country costing the American taxpayers billions of dollars;
c. Election fraud through the use of new electronic voting machines without paper trails;
d. Downplaying of the importance of English as our official language;
e. Destroying our manufacturing jobs through unfair trade agreements like NAFTA that benefit corporations over American workers;
f. Growing influence of private, non-governmental organizations (NGO’s) like the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission on our government’s political leaders and policies;
g. Failed social engineering programs in housing, education, finance, employment, etc.
h. Expansion of underfunded entitlement programs;
i. Ever increasing taxation of the people at every level of government;
j. Frequent attacks on the Second Amendment rights of American citizens from every level of government;
k. Creation of one financial crises after another that are designed to allow the federal government and the Federal Reserve to assume a larger role in controlling the economy even though the federal government’s own actions, policies and legislation caused the crises in the first place;
l. Federal government’s use of the threat of terrorism as an excuse to become more intrusive into our everyday lives and thereby place more and more limitations on our personal freedoms and liberties;
m. Increasing use of prescription drugs to alter the behavior of more and more Americans. For example: At the present time, there are 6 million children under the age of 18 in the USA who have been prescribed mind-altering psychotropic drugs like Ritalin;
n. Deliberate “dumbing down” of the American education system through revised teaching methods and the re-writing of textbooks to include politically correct and globalist agendas;
o. Deliberate and frequent attacks on mainstream organized religions (particularly Jewish and Christian);
p. Surrender of our government’s constitutional power to create money to a group of private international bankers (the Federal Reserve) who answer to no one and who are slowly and deliberately bankrupting this country through the use of “fiat’ money;
q. Manipulated and biased news stories from the mainstream media that are too often designed to support the political agendas of their owners, international bankers and corporations, special interest groups and even their favorite political candidates.
r. Politicization and manipulation of science by special interest groups for political gain through the use of legal and/or economic pressure to influence the findings of scientific research and then using their own media outlets to control the way it is disseminated, reported or interpreted. Global Warming is a prime example of this process;
s. The endless cycle of war that has occurred since America became a member of the United Nations. The UN charter has allowed our politicians to send American troops into combat on foreign soil without formal Declarations of War;
t. The step by step surrender of our nation’s sovereignty to an ever expanding and un-elected United Nations bureaucracy in order to promote the need for a “New World Order” and “One World Government” under the guise of fighting common global threats against all the people of the earth including the pollution of the oceans, the aids epidemic, third world poverty, terrorism and global warming;

Unfortunately, the previous list is only a small fraction of the “threads of change” that are being woven around and through American society today by America’s enemy within. Although this traitorous network of individuals and organizations is relatively small, they have an unlimited amount of money at their disposal to use to pursue their globalist agenda.

They advance their agenda by:

1. Using their own group members currently in high government positions,
2. Using individuals and research groups financed by their own non-profit foundations, and
3. Using the media companies they own to bring pressure on government officials from several different directions at once.

The long term plan of America’s Lilliputians has been to use a small “step by step” process, or “thread by thread” change process that is designed to slowly but steadily advance their goals while at the same time going virtually unnoticed by the majority of Americans. Unfortunately, their success in implementing their goals will gradually convert the USA from a sovereign nation into a subservient position in the new world order run by non-elected, appointed bureaucrats selected by the international bankers.

The sheer numbers of these individual globalist “threads of change” that threaten America’s freedoms, liberties and sovereignty have been increasing dramatically in the last few decades. As these “threads of change” are very carefully woven deeper and deeper into the fabric of American society by the enemy within and are combined with other “threads of change,” they are steadily becoming stronger and more difficult to break.

If America fails to awaken soon to the danger that these traitorous American Lilliputians pose to this country, we too, like Lemuel Gulliver, will find ourselves totally incapacitated, without individual freedoms and liberties and unable to do anything about it. The grip of these international criminals must be broken and the threats against our liberties, freedoms and our nation’s sovereignty must be eliminated before it is too late.

If the plan of the international bankers is ultimately successful, the US constitution will gradually be superseded by international laws, rules, regulations and legal decisions of the International World Court.

If we do nothing and the traitorous Lilliputian international bankers are successful in fully implementing their globalist agenda for America, we will all be destined to be poor, overtaxed, unarmed, bound by the chains and shackles of servitude and at the mercy of our new masters.

TRIBUNE AD CREATES STIR: BIRTH CERTIFICATE ISSUE REFUSES TO GO AWAY

By John P. Connolly, The Bulletin (Philadelphia) 12/04/2008

Despite the lack of media coverage and the derision of President-elect Barack Obama's supporters, a newspaper ad signaled that the controversy surrounding Mr. Obama's citizenship is not going away.

The We The People Foundation, an organization designed to increase understanding of the Constitution, took out two full-page ads in the Chicago Tribune calling on Mr. Obama to release his proof of natural birth and U.S. citizenship.

"Representing thousands of responsible American citizens who have also taken an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States of America, I am duty bound to call on you to remedy an apparent violation of the Constitution," read the open letter from Robert L. Schulz, the chairman of We The People.

Questions about Mr. Obama's citizenship, and by extension, his eligibility to be president, have focused around Mr. Obama's unwillingness to release his original birth certificate. The lack of evidence in the controversy was cited by the letter as the root of concern from citizens over the fate of the presidency.

"In consideration of the escalating constitutional crisis brought on by the total lack of evidence needed to conclusively establish your eligibility, I am compelled to serve you with this First Amendment Petition for a redress of this violation of the Constitution," stated the ad. "With all due respect, I ask that you immediately direct the appropriate Hawaiian officials to allow access to the vault copy of your birth certificate by our forensic scientists on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 5, 6 and 7, 2008."

The ads were met with derision by the Chicago Sun-Times columnist Mary Mitchell, who cited a document put on the Internet by the Obama campaign in the summer as proof for why Mr. Obama is a natural born U.S. citizen.

The document that was put on Mr. Obama's "Fight the Smears" Web site was not a birth certificate, but a birth certification, which is a computer generated print-off of information taken from a normal birth certificate. Further, critics assert that there is evidence that puts the low-quality scan in question.

A meeting of Supreme Court justices will decide on Dec. 5 whether or not to hear one of multiple cases over the release of Mr. Obama's birth certificate. The lawsuit filed by Leo C. Donofrio against the Secretary of State of New Jersey is scheduled for a meeting of the justices, and should four of them vote in favor of the case, hearings would be scheduled. Mr. Donofrio also wants a similar case from a Connecticut court heard by the Supreme Court at the same time.Mr.

Donofrio applied to the Supreme Court after the Supreme Court of New Jersey dismissed his case. His first application was to Justice David Souter, who denied the application. Mr. Donofrio then applied to Justice Clarence Thomas, who scheduled Friday's meeting.

According to the U.S. Constitution, "no person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of president."

In Pennsylvania, attorney Philip J. Berg filed a suit against Mr. Obama and the Democratic National Committee in August, in the hopes that Mr. Obama would produce his original birth certificate. Mr. Berg says he believes Mr. Obama was born in Kenya.The case was thrown out of the Third Circuit Court in November because the judge ruled Mr. Berg had no standing to enforce the presidential requirements of the Constitution. Mr. Berg has since filed a writ requesting the Supreme Court hear his case, and Mr. Obama waived his right to respond to the writ.

The Court has not yet decided whether or not it will hear Mr. Berg's case.

I know you are busy setting up your new administration as the President elect of the greatest country in the world, but there are a couple of things about your background and qualifications for the office that concern me and many of my fellow Americans. Never before has a Presidential candidate failed to fully disclose routine information about their background.

It seems that many records concerning your background have either been sealed or are temporarily unavailable for review. I know that any honest person like yourself, who is about to assume the highest office in the land, would never overtly want to keep such information from public review.

Here's a partial list:

1. College records from Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard -- Not available and secured by college administrators.
2. Columbia Thesis paper -- not available, secured by college administrators
3. Certified Copy of original Birth certificate - Not released (sealed?)
4. Certified Copy of Certification of Live Birth -- Not released (sealed?)

I believe items #3 and 4 are the most critical and they concern two issues that are very important to the American people:

1. Are Are you a Natural Born Citizen of the U.S.? and
2. Are you legally qualified to hold the Office of President?

There have been several lawsuits filed, or currently being filed, in 7 or 8 states with various state Boards of Elections, claiming you are ineligible to be on their ballots because you have not produced proof that you are a natural born citizen of the United States.


As you may recall, there was a Cetificate of Live Birth (COLB) for you posted on your campaign website in the past that was reported as an original, but which was later found to be only an abstract of a computer record having no connection to the original 1961 COLB document. The abstract copy was later taken down.

In an election of a President, where being a "Natural Born Citizen" is a requirement for the position, I believe that the American people have a right to know if you are a natural born citizen.

What does the actual original document say about the birth? What hospital were you born in? Who was the attending physician? What was the date and time? What names are listed on the COLB? I think the question of your birth is a very important constitutional issue and the issue should be publicly put to rest one way or the other.

Mr Obama, it seems that you are creating needless confusion when you could easily avoid all of this doubt simply by asking for release of your original 1961 document and let it be examined. Why haven't you done this? and why have you fought against every attempt to produce the document?

Mr. Obama, if you are truly and honorable man and a "Natural Born Citizen of the United States" you can clear up this issue very quickly. Just sign a release to have the full document examined and made available for public scrutiny.

Your continued avoidance of the issue and your subsequent failure to provide proof that you are a "Natural Born Citizen of the United States" is very suspicious and raises a very important constitutional issue that must be addressed before you take office. I am asking you to stop using legal technicalities, record sealing and courtroom maneuvers to avoid the issue. The American people have every constitutional right to know whether or not you are a "Natural Born Citizen" and they will eventually find out.

Let's put this issue to rest once and for all so we can get on with the American people's business.

When I was growing up in the Inwood section of upper Manhattan, I remember when I was about 12 or 13 years old I had my first contact with discovering what a “front” was for another business. It was called Tack’s Tackle Shop. When it first opened, it looked like just another business. The guy in the store, Tack, was selling fishing rods, live bait and an array of fishing equipment. It didn’t take long before the kids in the neighborhood figured out that perhaps there was something else going on. The live bait in the window wasn’t alive anymore and local hoods and gangster type people seemed to be going in and out, particularly in the evenings and none of them looked like fishermen. It wasn’t long before the place was raided by the NYCPD and my friends and I all watched from across the street on Sherman Avenue as “Tack” came out in handcuffs along with a bunch of other men. We were later told that Tack’s Tackle Shop had actually been a front for an illegal gambling operation.

 A “front group” can be any entity that is set up to appear to be a legitimate independent organization, like Tack’s Tackle Shop, when it is actually controlled from behind the scenes by another organization or group of individuals. These front groups are often legitimate businesses, social or political organizations, professional groups, advocacy groups, research organizations, etc. Organized crime has used legitimate front organizations for many decades to launder their income from various illegal activities. Pharmaceutical companies have used front organizations to advocate for the drugs they manufacture. International terrorist organizations have their front groups here in the United States and as the evidence clearly shows, so do the international bankers.

After researching the formation and activities of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) it appears that it may be a very sophisticated version of “Tack’s Tackle Shop.” The CFR was specifically set up to carry out the goals and objectives of  international bankers so that the public positions taken by the CFR would appear to be independent positions that could not be directly connected to the international bankers who personally control and fund the CFR.

The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) was founded in 1921 by a very select group of international bankers, Wall Street lawyers and wealthy “old money” families sometimes called the Establishment or the Elites. Among the CFR’s founders were JP Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, “Colonel” Edward House (Marxist. globalist and close advisor to President Wilson), Paul Warburg (international banker), Otto Kahn and Jacob Schiff (both international investment bankers). The CFR’s stated purpose at that time was to improve the understanding of US foreign policy and international affairs through the exchange of ideas. The select membership has been gradually expanded over the years,   now totaling around 3,800 and includes various professionals, corporate CEO’s, college presidents, media owners and reporters, high-ranking government officials and even high ranking US military officers.

These same international bankers that started the CFR were instrumental in getting President Woodrow Wilson to sign the Federal Reserve Act into existence in 1913 that basically gave these international bankers the power to print money and control our entire economy. To show you the mind set of this core group, one of the founding CFR members, Edward House, authored a book in 1912 entitled “Philip Dru: Administrator” in which he laid out a fictionalized plan for the conquest of America. In the book, he told of a conspiracy by which a group of wealthy businessmen would gain control of both the Democratic and Republican parties and use them as instruments for the creation of a socialist world government. 

After signing the Federal Reserve Act into law, President Woodrow Wilson later admitted, "I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country….(America is) no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men." He was, of course, talking about the international bankers and the creation of the first great nationwide “front organization” called the Federal Reserve that was designed to directly benefit the international bankers at the expense of the American taxpayers.

The late Carroll Quigley (mentor and advisor to President Clinton) who was a long term  member of the CFR, wrote in his book “Tragedy & Hope”: "The CFR is the American Branch of a society….which believes that national boundaries should be obliterated, and a one-world rule established."

Rear Admiral Chester Ward, a former member of the CFR for 16 years, sounded the alarm about the real intent of the CFR and pointed out that there was two separate cliques within the CFR:

1.      The first and most powerful clique wants to bring about the surrender of the sovereignty and national independence of the United States.

2.      The second clique of international members is comprised of Wall Street international bankers and their key agents who want to receive a world banking monopoly from whatever power ends up in control of global government.

Congressman John Rarick, a recipient of the Bronze Star and Purple Heart in World War II and a Democrat from Louisiana who once argued with his party over its increasing liberalism, said, "The CFR, dedicated to one-world government, financed by a number of the largest tax-exempt foundations, and wielding such power and influence over our lives in the areas of finance, business, labor, military, education, and mass communication-media, should be familiar to every American concerned with good government, and with preserving and defending the U.S. Constitution and our free-enterprise system. Yet, the nation’s right-to-know machinery, the news media, usually so aggressive in exposures to inform our people, remain conspicuously silent when it comes to the CFR, its members and their activities.”

By using the CFR as a front organization to push their globalist agenda for America and the world, the “Establishment Elites and International Bankers” have managed to gain significant influence and power in key decision-making positions at the highest levels of our government. They can not only advocate their new world order ideas from within the government by using their CFR members in high government positions, but they can also use individual CFR members and research groups financed by their non-profit foundations to bring pressure from another direction. The international bankers use this process to implement the step by step decisions that will gradually convert the US from a sovereign nation to a subservient position in the new world order run by appointed bureaucrats selected by the international bankers. The CFR is being used much in the same manner as “Tack’s Tackle Shop” was used by an organized criminal group. The international bankers behind the CFR want to give the public the outward appearance of legitimacy in order that they can slowly accomplish their illegal objectives to usurp the US Constitution and the sovereignty of this country.

Many of the most influential international bankers, Wall Street CEOs, politicians, academics and media owners and TV personalities are members of the CFR. They join the CFR for the same reasons that other people join similar business organizations: to make political or business contacts, to enjoy the prestige of being in the organization or to simply use their connections to make more money. The CFR in turn, uses the broad influence of these people and their organizations to slowly infiltrate their globalist ‘New World Order’ plans into American life. CFR members and their ghost writers author scholarly articles that are designed to specifically affect public opinion and future government decision making. These authors and researchers are oftentimes funded directly by one or more of the international bankers’ non-profit foundations. The CFR’s well paid academics expound on the wisdom of a united world and the CFR media members disseminate the message.

In the 1940’s, President Roosevelt began bringing CFR members into the State Department and they have dominated it ever since. CFR members were instrumental in the creation of the United Nations. The American delegation to the San Francisco meeting that drafted the charter of the United Nations in 1949 included CFR members Nelson Rockefeller, John Foster Dulles, John Mc Cloy and the Secretary-General of the conference, Alger Hiss, who was later arrested as a spy for Russia. In all, the CFR sent at least forty-seven of its members in the United States delegation, effectively controlling the outcome.

These same CFR members were also instrumental in using our country’s new membership in the United Nations to create the concepts of “limited wars” and “police actions” that were designed to circumvent the US Constitution and permit an administration to send our troops to war without a formal Declaration of War. It should also be pointed out that these two concepts benefit the international bankers and large corporations most because they allow these entities to make huge profits by providing financing and/or equipment and products to the enemies of our country during the conflict. It definitely did not benefit the US military men and women who were wounded or died in these conflicts. If a Declaration of War was declared, these same bankers and corporation CEO’s would be charged with treason for aiding the enemy during a time of war.

James Warburg, a CFR member and son of CFR founder Paul Warburg testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on February 17, 1950, defiantly telling the Senators that: “We shall have world government, whether or not you like it – by conquest or consent.”

On November 25, 1959, the Council on Foreign Relations published “Study No. 7”, which openly declared its true purpose to bring about a New World Order through the manipulation of U.S. foreign policy and through international economic interdependence:

·         "...building a New International Order [which] must be responsive to world aspirations for peace, [and] for social and economic change...an international order [code for world government]...including states labeling themselves as 'Socialist.'"

The plan for the New World Order and the ultimate control of America by the international bankers, was clearly outlined once again in the April 1974 issue of “Foreign Affairs” the Council of Foreign Relations’ own publication, when CFR member and former Secretary of State Richard N. Gardner, wrote an article entitled “The Hard Road to World Order” in which he stated:

·         “In short, the house of world order will have to be built from the bottom up rather than from the top down. An end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old fashioned assault…” one way to garner public support for new international treaties would be to propagandize world wide predicaments. If people are scared of terrorism, financial chaos or global warming, they will be willing to cede their national sovereignty, freedom and liberties for global authority.”

Since the FDR administration, all transition teams and administrations have been full of CFR members. It didn’t matter whether they were liberal or conservative, Democrat or Republican. The Nixon administration had over 115 CFR members all in key Executive branch positions, most of who continued into the Ford years. Ronald Reagan wasn’t a CFR member, but his Vice President George HW Bush was a CFR member, and so were 28 members of his transition team alone. The Clinton administration had over 150 CFR members in key executive positions. George W. Bush is not a CFR member either, but his father and uncle are, his Vice President Dick Cheney is, and his administration is swarming with CFR members. The incoming Obama administration’s transition team is packed with CFR members and he is already looking to staff many of its administration’s key executive branch positions with CFR members.

Did you vote for change in the 2008 Election? If you did, here’s a partial list of Mr. Obama’s transition team:

Susan E. Rice – (CFR) former State Department Asst Secretary for African Affairs; Anthony Lake (CFR) – Bill Clinton’s first national Security advisor; Zbigniew Brzezinski – (CFR) and Trilateral Commission - Brzezinski is widely seen as the man who created Al Qaeda, and was involved in the Carter Administration plan to give arms, funding and training to the Mujahideen in Afghanistan; Richard Clarke (CFR) - Former chief counter-terrorism adviser on the U.S. National Security Council under Bush; Robert W. Kagan (CFR) argues that interventionism is a bipartisan affair that should be undertaken with the approval of our democratic allies; Dennis B. Ross (CFR) and Trilateral Commission - Served as the director for policy planning in the State Department under President George H. W. Bush and special Middle East coordinator under President Bill Clinton; Lawrence J. Korb (CFR)  - Director of National Security Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. Has criticized manor of the invasion of Iraq but has detailed plans to increase the manpower of the United States Army to fight the war on terror and to "spread liberal democratic values throughout the Middle East"; Bruce Reidel (CFR) - Former CIA analyst who wishes to expand the war on terror to fight Al Qaeda across the globe. Considered to be the reason behind Barack Obama’s Hawkish views on Pakistan and his Pro India leanings on Kashmir; Stephen E. Flynn (CFR) - Has been attributed with the idea for Obama’s much vaunted "Civilian Security Force". Flynn has written: "The United States should roughly replicate the Federal Reserve model by creating a Federal Security Reserve System (FSRS) with a national board of governors, 10 regional Homeland Security Districts, and 92 local branches called Metropolitan Anti-Terrorism Committees”; and Madeline Albright (CFR) and Brookings - Currently serves on the Council on Foreign Relations Board of directors and was Former Secretary of State and US Ambassador to the United Nations under Clinton.

Here’s the list of possible cabinet positions in the new administration: James B. Steinberg – CFR and the Trilateral Commission; Chuck Hagel (R) – (CFR); Robert M Gates – (CFR), Hillary Clinton – Husband Bill is a CFR member; Bill Richardson (CFR); Sen John Kerry (D) (CFR); Susan Rice (CFR); Robert Rubin (CFR); Lawrence Summers (CFR); Timothy Geithner (CFR); Paul A. Volcker (CFR); David L. Boren (CFR); Thomas H. Kean (CFR); Gary Hart (CFR), and Jane Harman (CFR) – Defense Department Special Counsel (1979).

At time of writing of this article, President-elect Barack Obama's has apparently selected Arizona Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano as secretary of Homeland Security; Timothy Geithner, the current New York Federal Reserve head, as the Secretary of the Treasury; and Texas Democratic Gov. William Richardson as the Secretary of Commerce.  Guess what? They are all members of the Council on Foreign Relations.  So much for change!

What do Dan Rather, Barbara Walters, Jim Lehrer, Marvin Kalb, Diane Sawyer, Andrea Mitchell and Tom Brokaw have in common? Answer: They are all members of the CFR.

What does the NY Times, Washington Post, Wall Street journal, LA Times, Boston Globe, Baltomor Sun, Chicage Sun-Times, Houston Post, Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Arkansas Gazette, DesMoine Register and Tribune, Louisville Courier, the AP, UPI, Reuters, the Gannett Co, Walt Disney, ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox Networks, Clear Channel have in common: Answer: They are all members of the CFR.

Freedom of the press has always been vital to the preservation of our American Republic. Ever since the early years of our country, it was the American “free press” that stood tall between us and the crooked international bankers, industrialists and corrupt government officials. While some of the major newspapers in the big cities were controlled by establishment types like William Randolph Hearst, who definitely influenced the content, most of the newspaper owners and reporters were independent and honorable people who chose to keep their integrity by pursuing the truth. Most local newspapers, radio stations, and later on TV stations, were owned locally.

As they grow larger and eliminate their competition, major media corporations and international bankers are choosing what you will see on the nightly news while trying to  trick you into believing it is unbiased reporting.  The very news stories that you are fed by the mainstream media are manipulated to mirror the public relations campaigns of corporations, international bankers and even their favorite presidential candidates. If this is not the case then why, during the course of the 2008 election, was there no mention of the issues that were important to Americans: the threat by big government to our freedoms, liberties and sovereignty; the actions of the Federal Reserve and the issuance fiat money; the drugging of 6 million of our nation’s youth; or amnesty for illegal aliens. Popular candidates like Ron Paul were either ignored by the media, excluded from most of the TV debates, or asked fewer questions than their CFR candidate counterparts.   Of the top twenty media corporations in the U.S, 18 are members of the CFR.

The CFR's strategy is to use their members in the media to promote the need for world government in order to fight international threats like global warming. Both Obama and McCain made the environment a major issue in the campaign, but avoided mentioning the immigration issue. The CFR has long identified the worldwide environmental movement as a means to advance its agenda and has even suggested a global tax on all developed nations, payable to the United Nations of course. Most of the major media companies are now controlled by individuals or organizations that are members of the CFR, including the international bankers. One of the techniques used by the CFR and its membership has been to manipulate the news in such as way as to push their internationalist views on the rest of us.

As the big media corporations keep merging into larger and more powerful companies, they will be able to control public opinion as never before. With their friends in congress and in key government agencies, all the international bankers and their CFR members need to do is advocate bringing back the “Fairness Doctrine” and regulating the internet and their control of the media will be complete.

The average American might find the CFR’s powerful influence over America's government very difficult to understand or believe, but never forget that the CFR was founded by international bankers for the express purpose of bringing about socialism and world government. It is the deliberate plan of these international bankers, who hide in the shadows and pull the strings of their marionettes, to gradually increase their influence and domination over America’s domestic and foreign affairs. CFR members have been in control of our government since the 1940’s. If CFR members are supposedly to be the nation’s best and brightest in running the federal government and overseeing foreign affairs, why is the country in such a mess under their eighty year watch? The answer is: That’s the plan.

The international bankers behind the Federal Reserve and the CFR are deliberately trying to usurp the US Constitution and gradually destroy our freedoms, liberties and sovereignty in the process. They are using the Federal Reserve System to bankrupt the country so we will be at their mercy. The deeper in debt our country goes, the richer and more powerful these international bankers become. If action is not taken to take back control of our nation’s currency from the criminals in the private international banking cartel and if the CFR’s influence over the highest levels of our federal government isn't soon broken, America will be reduced to a third world nation controlled by a socialistic world government where our freedoms and liberties would have disappeared and our national sovereignty is but a fond memory.

Many Americans believe that we may have reached a point where it no longer matters which party or candidate wins the election, because both candidates are already beholden to special interest groups and the winner will most like staff the high level executive positions with CFR members. 

The activities of the international bankers behind the Council on Foreign Relations and the Federal Reserve should be thoroughly investigated by an independent prosecutor. If criminal activities are uncovered, then those involved should be prosecuted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) as an ongoing criminal conspiracy. The American people must not give up their liberties for the false sense of security offered by the international bankers and their CFR puppets. The grip of these international criminals must be broken and the threats against our liberties, freedoms and our nation’s sovereignty must be eliminated. It can only be accomplished by a demand for action by a determined and educated American citizenry, as well as by an honest and thorough federal criminal investigation.

I close this article with a quote from David Rockefeller, the former Chairman and the current Honorary Chairman of the Council on Foreign Relation and ask you to consider the implications of what he has said:

"We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years... It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries."

My fellow citizens, the greatest threats to your freedoms and liberties are not coming from outside our country. They are coming from inside our country. While there are numerous anti-American groups and organizations located within America that would love to see our nation fail, Americans are also facing a federal government that is no longer listening to them.

With its unconstitutional expansion and intrusion into every facet of our lives, it is our own government, not some foreign power, which has become the biggest threat to our individual freedoms and liberties.

Special Interest donors are giving huge amounts of money to candidates of both major political parties and these donors no longer care who wins the election, because they have already paid off all of the candidates. Regardless of the outcomes of elections, it is the Special Interest Groups that are usually the big winners and it is the American people who are usually the losers.

In his Gettysburg address in 1863, President Abraham Lincoln described the nation as "a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. I'm afraid that is no longer true. Although it has happened gradually over many, many years of corruption and bribery, America has now become a government of the special interest groups, by the special interests groups, and for the special interest groups. It can now be said with confidence, that America truly has the best government that money can buy.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM from the hundreds of millions of Special Interest dollars that are buying votes and elections. Why is it still legal for a politician to take a bribe simply by calling it a contribution, when every other public official who takes this kind of money commits the crime of bribery? Do you think it's because politicians make the laws? Of course it is. In 1776, our Founders stood up, put their lives and fortunes on the line and declared their freedom and independence from the chains and shackles of the King of England. In 2008, Americans must also be willing to stand up and publicly declare their Freedom and Independence, not from the King of England, but from the chains and shackles of special interest money. America needs legislation that defines the receipt of any special interest money by elected officials and candidates, at all levels of government, as Bribery and therefore illegal and a crime.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM from the invasion of Illegal Aliens that threatens our country's sovereignty and costs us over $350 billion dollars a year. The government must stop this invasion by securing our borders, by enforcing our current immigration laws, by cutting off the honey pot of financial assistance that attracts illegal aliens, by not issuing them drivers' licenses and by deporting all illegal alien criminals when they are released from prison.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM ELECTION FRAUD. Computerized voting systems that are easily hacked and designed by companies that make big donations to elected officials are definitely not 100% reliable as we have seen in the recent primaries and elections. We need an honest and verifiable election process that mandates a permanent, verifiable paper record of the peoples' votes.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM A MULTI-LINGUAL SOCIETY. We need legislation designating English as the official language of the United States; for it is our common language that unifies us and will preserve us as one nation.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM DESTRUCTIVE INTERNATIONAL TRADE AGREEMENTS. Free and Fair Trade between nations is a good thing, however some trade agreements like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and other similar agreements are a threat to our sovereignty and independence as a nation. Many of these international agreements transfer power from the U.S. government and its people to un-elected international bureaucrats. These agreements help no one but the international corporations that exploit cheap foreign labor and they are costing millions of Americans their jobs.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM EXCESSIVE TAXATION. In addition to a drastic reduction in spending that includes the abolition of programs and agencies that are unconstitutional, ineffective or no longer needed, the government must reduce the tax burden on the American people by substantially reducing or eliminating the income tax on individuals and any other taxes that punish individual investment and savings. We must also eliminate taxes on Social Security benefits and eliminate the Tax on the estates of hard working Americans who have died and already paid their taxes on these assets.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM ATTACKS ON OUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS. Our country's founders designed a formal system of checks and balances for our government, but they were also concerned that the system could fail and that we might someday face a new tyranny, not from a foreign government, but from our own government. They knew that a government facing an armed citizenry was less likely to take away our rights, while a disarmed population wouldn't have much hope. Law abiding American citizens have a right to keep and bear arms. It is a fundamental, individual Constitutional right that we have a sacred duty to defend.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM ATTACKS ON THEIR PRIVACY AND FROM A NATIONAL ID CARD. Protecting the country from Illegal Aliens and Terrorists attacks are necessary in today's world. Making it very hard for these individuals to obtain driver's licenses and other legal documents is a good thing. But imbedding American citizen's driver's licenses with radio frequency identification chips, in the name of security, that allows the government to remotely access their personal information and determine their location and travel habits is a violation of the people's freedoms and liberties. We must support legislation to get rid of the RFID chip requirements on our citizens' licenses.

AMERICAN CHILDREN NEED FREEDOM FROM BEING DRUGGED BY GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS. Approximately 6 million children, including 10% of all 6-18 year old boys in the United States are on psychotropic drugs like Ritalin for attention deficit hyperactivity disorders. These numbers are increasing despite the fact that there is no independent, scientifically accepted valid test for ADHD. Could the millions of dollars in campaign contributions to members of congress and the funding of professional and academic institutions by the Pharmaceutical industry have something to do with this continued expansion? Of course it does.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM A FAILING FEDERAL EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. Before the creation of The Federal Department of Education in 1979, America had the finest education system in the world. With help from the National Education Association, federal programs are now specifically designed to de-emphasize academic knowledge and dumb-down America's children. Why is it that more and more of our children can't read, write or understand math at grade level? How come many of our high school students can't find the United States on a map of the world, but know how to put a condom on a cucumber? It's because our once great educational system has been hijacked, corrupted and deliberately Dumbed-Down by socialist, politically correct bureaucrats in Washington.

Not only has the federal Department of Education been a colossal failure, it is also unconstitutional. Nowhere in the US Constitution, is the federal government given the power to legislate or mandate educational policy for the states. This very important power was retained by the states and for a very good reason. Parents, along with their respective State and local governments, are the people best situated to educate their children, not federal government and union bureaucrats in Washington trying to push their political and social agenda on us. The Federal Department of Education deserves a failing grade of "F" and should be abolished.

AMERICANS NEED FREEDOM FROM THE PRIVATE CONTROL OF OUR NATION'S MONEY. In the U.S. Constitution, the people of the United States granted Congress the power to coin Money and regulate its Value. The people never gave congress the constitutional power to delegate this money-creating and regulating responsibility to any private group of bankers. Yet this is exactly what the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 did. As long as this cartel of private banking executives, who make up the Federal Reserve Board, have control over our nation's money, they will continue to encourage our government to spend more than it takes in. For the deeper in debt the country goes, the more money these private bankers make.

When their own private banking investments fail, they always find a way to get the American taxpayers to bail them out with guaranteed loans and the issuance of new printed fiat money that is backed by nothing. The recent federal bailout scheme will cost American taxpayers trillions of dollars before it is over. The member banks of the Federal Reserve will make hundreds of billions of dollars at our expense.

The big banks and Wall Street firms take no risk and the taxpayers foot the bill. How does this system benefit the American people? The answer is that It's doesn't. It's just a clever criminal scheme that fuels inflation, devalues our dollar and benefits the big commercial banks. The Federal Reserve Board should be abolished.

FORTUNATELY, THERE ARE ALSO NO LIMITS TO WHAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CAN DO: Largely as a result of the Ron Paul Revolution, the Internet and conservative radio, the American people are becoming more aware of the corruption, unconstitutional expansion and intrusive power of our federal government and there are some hopeful signs.

When the US Senate tried to quickly pass an Amnesty bill for Illegal Aliens last year, we saw the power of the American people. Because they were so outraged by the actions of the Senate, the people rose up in great numbers, shut down the Senate's switchboard and the politicians quaked in their boots in the face of this massive display of citizen power.

The time has come for Americans to exert that citizen power again. Let's put aside all of our minor differences that have separated us and unite as one strong political force. We must be united by our major common goals and not divided by our minor differences. We must become active in politics and all levels of government and support only those candidates that are honest, ethical, of good moral character, who take no special interest money and who support smaller, less intrusive federal, state and local governments.

Together, let us begin the journey that will leave future generations of Americans a legacy of individual freedom and liberty, a first class education system, a clean environment, a strong and sovereign America with an honest, limited government that will offer unlimited opportunities for their future. If we stand together, we can give it to them.

For Freedom, Liberty and Sovereignty,
