By The People

There are fundamental flaws in how American government operates today,
contrary to the Constitution and the vision of a representative republican form of governance.
I intend doing something about it: by educating and informing others who
are not even aware of the dangers.

In Denial: The Wrong Message


The truths in the election results are not being told by the privately-owned major media. None of them are. There is a huge Republican Party victory by candidates of the conservative movement in many States, but here in Oregon it is progressive socialism still sailing on albeit on rough seas. Evidently there are more people in the metropolitan areas that want a government nanny instead of being responsible for themselves. The problem is they don't consider that those who are being responsible are being punished by the nanny-state politicians who are once again elected by the 'Gimmes'.

The results of the national mid-terms indicate that most Americans are fed up with what is happening in Washington, D.C., a District of Criminals. The total disregard for the sea of messages the People have sent is typical of the level of self-importance exhibited by the person occupying the White House.  While his own party is jumping Ship of State, he continues to believe his shipload of policies will sail on calm seas. And if they don't, like hardtack, he will shove them down the throats of Americans whether we like it or not.

First there is the fact that this turn in events will not go into effect until after the newly elected officials are sworn in next year. Obama has promised to take executive action if the current Congress won't give him what he wants. He has threatened so much and disregards the messages the election sent to Washington.

There are some places who either remained liberal or elected a few Democrats because of opposition to legislation the People wanted, but the Governor or Assembly refused to pass.

Pennsylvania's current Republican Governor lost as he had opposed a medical marijuana bill and promised to veto it. The Governor elect will sign it when it passes both State Houses.

Here in Oregon, the Republican challenger lost to the incumbent Democrat who also like the person who occasionally visits the Oval Office between golf and basketball games, and fundraising, Dr. Kitzhaber has also used his position for alleged personal and political gain, and for the profit of his mistress and political favors for his supporters. There are allegations of other improprieties however no investigations have been initiated or undertaken.  Just like the person occupying the White House has managed to avoid prosecution with an entourage of spin doctors deflecting the public's attention onto phony issues like the war on women. Even the race card didn't trump the natural cards:  Mia Love in Utah and Tim Scott in South Carolina. A woman and both African-American Republicans. I'll bet that has Debbie Wasserman-Schultz seething.

There were many victories that were based on the candidates constitutional doctrines. There were a few because of the opposition's view that was not aligned with the voters. But by and large, the message sent by the results is plain and simple:  STOP OBAMA!

Broke and Broken!

We all know we are not only broke, but that we are in multi-trillion dollar debt. What is being made public (finally!) by the privately-owned major media is how  bad our government is broken.

We have not operated under a true constitutional government for many decades. We are no longer a representative republic, having our electoral system totally corrupted by those who control the puppets in Washington. 

Now we discover that those who were appointed by the President to the highest offices in government, have used their positions for personal or political gain or both. And the list of acts of corruption and deceit grows daily.


We are now discovering that the Obama Administration and the Republican Party do little to protect the American People, in fact to the contrary, they have colluded to destroy America from the inside out.

It is difficult for any logic or reason to conclude that incompetence is the problem. No group collectively can be this incompetent. And to call it mistakes made and then covered up is like peeing on my leg and trying to convince me that it is raining. Trust me, I live in the Pacific Northwest and know a thing to two about rain and pee.

In my way of seeing things, an order to a rescue team to stand down when American lives are at stake is murder. In this case the weapon used was either a pen or a phone. The lying about the cause of the attack to the world when it has become obvious that many in the government knew exactly what was happening demonstrates how little regard this administration has for rights or rule of law.
 
The Narcissist-in-Chief surrounded himself with enablers, who bow to his every wish and whim, regardless of consequences. Comparisons have been made to the Iran Contra affair where Col. Oliver North testified that he himself protected the President by lying or withholding information from him. The cutesy term, 'plausible deniability' is used to define it. This current administration has taken it to new heights. The entire government under Barack Obama knows less than Sgt. Schultz of Hogan's Heroes fame.

Republicans in the House have done little to expedite this issue, and instead, passed yet another piece of unconstitutional legislation (remember CISPA?) while most of America is distracted with ACA, AG, AP, Fox News, IRS, Departments of Justice and State, oh, and let's not forget unconstitutional and dictatorial executive orders that are justified by other unconstitutional acts passed by Congress.

Just recently, I have heard on the news (probably Fox) that we need to preserve the two party system because it works. Yeah right! What we need to do is redo the entire electoral system, and take away the control from the twp party system. We need to resort to simple paper ballots and public counting. I wrote about this in Protecting the Vote but obviously not many people are paying attention.

Principles, Not Ideology


What have we become as a nation? Our country was founded upon principles. Even though there were no prohibitions to slavery, drugs, guns, or rock and roll, there were always principles that led most people to do the right thing.

Slavery was not practiced by all, and it was the founding principles that did not interfere with the choice that people made regarding it. Just as we can choose not to patronize corporate brands who employ low wage workers in foreign lands, the free market system will always prevail to bring the best ethics from the providers of goods and services so long as the consumer is ethical also.


We are losing our liberty as we decline in wealth. We are declining as a nation as we lose our ethics and morals. And yet those who we elect to represent us have sold themselves to unethical special interests and corporations that place profits above the ethics and the law. Our representatives have legislated in favor of these corrupt corporations, elevating their rights above that of the individual.

The President and the liberal left do not possess a monopoly on legislation that is contrary to the principles of constitutional government. Many on  the right have supported legislation that is anything but constitutional. The Patriot Act and NDAA are two such examples. The rights of the individual are now secondary to the perceived belief that we are safer with  these laws.


The safest people are those who have the means to protect themselves, for they are the ones that the criminals fear and will avoid confronting. Car-jackers will think twice when enough media reports display would-be-victims taking responsibility for their own safety and use personal arms to protect themselves from these predators.

Lately I have heard arguments against gun bans from the so-called conservative party, that claims that federal weapons bans on such things as nuclear weapons and armored tanks are the only types of restrictions that can be permissible. I disagree.



If you have the wealth to purchase an Abrams Tank or a cruise missile, you have  the right to do so. The 2nd Amendment does not give you the right to bear and keep arms, that is written for the purpose of explicitly putting the federal government on notice that they cannot infringe on the right of the People to protect themselves. Just because the government is given the responsibility to protect all the States and all the People from enemies crossing our border and coming in from the seas, does not exclude the People or the States from protecting themselves. The first part of that Second Article of Amendment makes it clear that the States have explicit right to form their own militias, made up of the well armed and trained residents of the State.

All those laws that have been written since the Constitution was ratified, that clearly violate the limitations of the federal government and or restrict or prohibit the People from exercising their own rights, are not valid as law. We do not need the Supreme Court to offer an interpretation of the Constitution in order for the Constitution to be upheld.

It is with certainty that the complexity of law which is U.S. Code and Uniform Commerce Code, far exceed the constitutional limits on the federal government. Simply put, it is not for the majority of Americans to learn those complex laws, rather learn the Constitution and stick to it. Allow no exceptions in law that bends or breaks the purpose of the Constitution regardless of how socially expedient and necessary it may seem.

More laws do nothing to end the problem. Perhaps the punishment for breaking the law needs to be addressed. Starting with the 535 criminals who hold the entire country in slavery from their mahogany-paneled offices built with the taxes they stole from the States and the People.

Eliminate Newt Gingrich

There is no denying that Newt Gingrich is articulate and well read, and that he is a formidable debate opponent. A Lincoln-Douglas debate would certainly be an advantage for the former Speaker of the House. With no teleprompter to aid him, Obama would not stand a chance in a head-to-head match with the Newt.


That does not mean that I want him as my President. He divorced his first wife soon after her bout with cancer and surgery. He cheated on his second wife with a House staff worker, 23 years his junior, and he also changed his faith from Lutheran to Southern Baptist and now he claims to be a devote Catholic.


Just not too certain with wanting Newt Gingrich as a neighbor, because no telling whether he will be a friend or foe. I guess it would depend on how much profit he can get out of the relationship. He is founder or chair of American Solutions for Winning the FutureCenter for Health Transformation, Gingrich Productions and Renewing American Leadership

He was sanctioned by the House Ethics Committee and paid $300,000.00 due to allegations and charges of "check kiting" and tax violations. Nancy Pelosi was on that ethics panel, the same Nancy Pelosi that shared a  couch with Mr. Gingrich when he was lobbying for legislation on global warming. I bet he would like that to go away now that he is looking to be President.

There is nothing that can be uncovered that would be any less damning than that which is already widely known about Newt Gingrich. While the privately-owned and controlled major media still pushes the party favorites, pitting Gingrich and Romney as the "front-runners" and even blaming the Tea Party Movement as the reason that there is so much division in the GOP, it is evident by the straw polls and the other polls that neither Gingrich nor Romney are gaining any ground except on one another.

Gingrich favored the individual mandate in 2005 when then First Lady Hillary Clinton was pitching a national health care agenda. Now he don't think that is a good idea. Well Mr. Gingrich, fellow House Republican Ron Paul said back then that it was unconstitutional but nobody paid much attention.


We the People are paying attention to Ron Paul and many more are joining to support Dr. Paul as our next President. And I don't care what Hannity and O'Reilly think, or any other "thumper" for the party faves.

Process of Elimination: Newt Gingrich

It should not be a surprise to anyone that Mitt Romney is no longer the top pick of the GOP. His third-place finish behind John McCain in 2008 indicates that he wasn't the  party favorite then either. So now they, along with the privately-owned major media are pushing former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich as the one to beat Obama in 2012. But I question his integrity and so should you.

Infidelity with his first wife, asking her for a divorce while she was recuperating from surgery, and he was living with his third wife (Callista Bisek) in his apartment in DC at the time, and not paying bills for his wife and children. Can he be trusted to be faithful to We the People? I don't think so.

Gingrich also has to answer for his book deals with Rupert Murdoch's Harper Collins publishing company. Was it a $2.5 million or $4.5 million deal? Seems that Murdoch offered multi-million dollar book deals to other politicians in China and Great Britain, where he needed legislative support. Newt Gingrich is among that group that includes former British Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. Seems that NBC complained about FOX TV being owned by a foreign national which is against US law. Newt also was criticized by his GOP peers and he dropped the lucrative $4.5 million advance in favor of a still quite generous royalty arrangement.

Gingrich claims to be a "hawk" regarding the US military, but he did not serve in the armed forces, instead obtained deferments to avoid the draft and service during the Vietnam War era. Remember that his current rival Ron Paul served as a Flight Surgeon in the United States Air Force, and Paul is opposed to much of the militarism that Gingrich supports.

And let us not forget those ads with Nancy Pelosi about global warming. As President, will he reduce taxes on profits only to add taxes to carbon emissions? I am not willing to elect him to find out.  Having a bit of "handicapping" experience, it serves the best interests of all concerned to pass on Gingrich, and look at why Ron Paul will make the best President for all Americans.

A Process of Elimination: Rick Perry

There are many reasons why Rick Perry needs to be eliminated as a candidate, the HPV innoculations, approval of free education for illegal immigrants, but the most damning is his involvement with the Bilderberg Group.



Selling off public lands and roads to foreign investors to further the creation of the North American Union and the end of the United States as a sovereign nation. He accepted generous contributions from Merck Pharmaceuticals, who just happens to manufacture Gardisil, the HPV antivirus drug.

After listening to him speak at so many of the televised debates, I noticed that he has been picking up on points made by fellow Texan, Ron Paul, who does not think much of his Governor, claiming that since Perry's tenure, he has been paying more in taxes.

Next: Mitt Romney: Mr. Flip-flop
