True Patriots: Lovers of Liberty

It is not easy to be a true patriot in the United States of America today. The main reason being that the government has written so many laws that violate individual and State's rights, that it will take decades to sift through them all and nullify them all.

One way of handling the problem is at the State level. So my challenge to myself as a patriot is not only to voice my grievances with my elected members of the House and Senate, which alone is a monumental task, but to convince my State representatives in Salem (that is the capital of Oregon for those of you who lack that knowledge) to nullify those federal laws and mandates that go beyond the limitations of the Constitution by the federal government. I will have to vet candidates who also are patriots, demonstrating by how they live their lives and not by their campaign promises and rhetoric.

This is how I choose to express my love of liberty and life. Standing up for principles in the face of social ideology of Utopia that disregards all logic and reason to push their own agenda. Our enemies are those who will take our liberty and property. Be that an extremist faction from a foreign country or a corrupt politician here at home. The causes may be different but for us, the result is the same. A government begins taking from one group to give to another. Problems begin when the number of givers are few when compared to the number of takers. That is a real problem in America that nobody wants to address. 

The Bill of Rights was included in the Constitution at the insistence of the State assemblies to protect their sovereignty and the individual sovereignty of their residents. Think about this: Why do the states have their own constitutions? Wasn't the one we gave the Federal Government sufficient? In fact, for the most part, each state constitution includes the U. S. Constitution within their own, in whole or part. Why?

The Constitution for the united States of America is essentially a contract. We the People, contract and consent to creating a national government with few and limited powers. The Tenth Amendment makes it clear that those powers not reserved for the federal government was reserved for the many States and to the People. The rights of the People are not limited to just those that are clearly defined. The idea that these rights in the Bill of Rights is what We get is erroneous in logic ans commons sense, neither of which was lacking in the founders of this once great nation.

Through indoctrination in the federal mandated and regulated public school system, we now have generations who do not know what the Constitution really is about. They think they get rights from the Constitution. They also think that whatever laws Congress enacts and the President signs, it the law of the land. They really don't know that there are no laws that are valid when they violate the Constitution. Because they don't know that the document is a contract.

Those first ten amendments were for the government to remember that when enacting legislation, the rights of the People and States must always be considered above all else but the very safety of the union itself. The pretense of war and the War Powers Act, the former a treasonous act against the People and the latter an example of unconstitutional acts that are meant to do nothing less than circumvent those very limits of power and the delegation of that power among the three government branches defined in the Constitution.

We also have powers and responsibilities as well. We are the fourth branch of government in a sense. We must protect and defend our rights and property, and that of our neighbors. As more Americans abdicate their power and responsibilities to a government they become enslaved by that government through the corrupt people we elected. 

One of our powers is certainly to replace them through the ballot box, so we must control the elections instead of political parties controlling them. We must protect the vote, assuring that every valid ballot is counted and verified.

It is not the government's job to provide all that it has mandated. Drug laws, gun laws, health care laws are all beyond the limitations placed on government by the People's and State's representatives in the contract we call the Constitution for the united States of America. It was a lawful and binding contract that all parties must adhere to. 

Since the government has obviously not lived up to the contract, We the People must do whatever is required by constitutional means to replace that corruption of government with new representation for the People and States. Further, we must restore integrity to the election system, by wresting control from the parties. What they are doing is unconstitutional and We the People must act now!

2014 elections are too late now to change, but 2016 is far enough away to allow us to make positive changes in the elections.

Discrimination by Congressional Legislation?

Laws that protect a group of individuals from discrimination seemed like a good idea at the time. Save for a minority of representatives who argued against such legislation on grounds of constitutional validity were at the time called racists. We face the same issues today but on a multitude of fronts.

Gay rights, immigration rights, religious rights, every special interest group wants their own rights, and it is at the expense of individual rights. To single out any special interest group with legislated rights is to discriminate against all others.

Our nation was founded on the principles of rights granted by our Creator, and that is why the Constitution for the United States of America did not grant special rights to special interests. It did however single out slaves as being less than equal to all others and that was a mistake. The Fourteenth Article of Amendment (now the Thirteenth by virtue of the hiding of the original Thirteenth Article a.k.a. The Title of Nobility Amendment) was supposed to correct that indiscretion, but it did not. Today, there are prisons where minorities are subjected to a form of slavery sanction by the federal and state governments that rob those incarcerated of must of their constitutional rights while doing nothing to pay restitution to the victims of their crimes. Instead the general public is taxed to pay for the penal systems, most of which are now privately-run businesses, and those incarcerated are treated better than their victims.

There are no Congressional Caucuses outside of the Black Caucus that discriminates against all other groups. And the reason for that is simple: It is believed that blacks are owed something for the many years of slavery they endured up to the enactment of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The truth is hard for most to swallow.

Immigrants from Europe like my ancestors, did not arrive on the Mayflower nor were they early settlers. They did not own slaves here or in their homelands, yet they are forced by law to pay the same taxes as restitution as the rest. That in itself is a violation of individual rights, but nobody is making and noise about that.

I do not feel that any group has the right to discriminate against any other group. Are ancestors came here for freedom and opportunity, many with only the clothes on their back an a desire to make themselves self-sufficient and to provide for their families. Many went without basic needs until they were able to secure employment or to establish themselves as self-employed tradesman or business proprietors.

When they arrived at Ellis Island they did not get food stamps, medical benefits, or grants for educations. They did not get housing whether it was subsidized or fully paid for. They worked until they could afford it. Some had relatives that helped and others had ethic or religious groups that helped a little. Their were no government programs whatsoever. And they succeeded in making a life for  themselves here in America, and instilled that same ethic and motivation in their children.

With the New Deal and other legislation since FDR was President, Americans paid into Social Security as a government administered retirement account and then When LBJ was President they began paying into Medicare for their health care when they retired.  Many employed workers received benefits for health care from their employers while they remained employed and some even had their own health care coverage in addition to whet their employers provided.

The point being, they were not entitled to anything from the government. When laws were passed to give special interests "rights" above and beyond the rights of all people, more and more special interests wanted special rights as well. It was a bad idea from the start and it still is a bad idea.

It may seem like a cold and harsh view to many, but I make no apologies. I worked for the best part of forty four years, paying taxes every year and contributing to Social Security and Medicare. When I became disabled and could not secure employment to remain self reliant, I applied for disability "benefits" which is part of the Social Security Act and therefore this benefit is not an entitlement per se, but more of an early retirement.

I did not have a Congressional Black, White, Italian, Jewish, or any other caucus through which I could claim my "rights" to benefits. In fact it took over a year and three denial notices before I was finally granted a hearing to present my case before an administrative law judge. I was finally awarded my disability although I will probably not receive any funds until after the first of the new year. As a result, I will remain homeless and in a shelter that provides beds for over three hundred people.

To have any group singled out and granted rights above all others in not only unconstitutional, it is discrimination against the rest. If only more Americans understood the real issue here, I think there will be more calls for repeals of these laws or at the very least, nullification legislation passed by the States' Assemblies.

Now if you want to do something about real discrimination, repeal the unconstitutional drug laws, especially those that make cannabis a crime. How can a plant be outlawed when it was a crop that helped build this nation into one of greatness through economic prosperity?

Neither This Jackass Nor This Elephant Is Fit To Be Ridden Or Walked In The Park, They Leave Stuff Behind Them

As Democrats and Republicans concerns intensify over Willard Mittington Romney's experience and just what it could mean for the Nation if he becomes the Republican candidate, they seem to have completely forgotten the facts and instead rely on opinion polls which contrast him against someone who is a known Socialist and Marxist agitator and has stated that he hates America, listen to what his wife has to say. One of his mentors, Bill Ayers, who contributed to his Harvard education fund, stated too many times to count that he wanted to see the complete distruction of America. He and his followers wanted to replace it with a Marxist/communist government. Suprise! Please read the earlier NDRP article "Busy Bees Make Shiny New Hive...," you will not see a Constitution, legislature, or judiciary mentioned anywhere, just a dictator and his minions.

As a Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Willard Mittington Romney, has stated that he felt pressured by the liberal legislature, as if the Commonwealth was the pressure cooker and the U.S. Legislature (Congress) is a simmering cup of tea.

Romney's signature Health Care plan is the model on which Obamacare is based. Social programs do not belong in our form of governance. They do nothing regarding the operation of our government. Retirement, Pension, and Medical plans are the provenance of insurance and HMO companies. When enacted at the national level, these types of social programs provide untapped revenue streams. Why do you think the Social Security Insurance Program fund is bankrupt every year; because, it continues to be borrowed from and not repaid and in addition mismanaged to the point that it cannot fulfill its purpose. For more information on Romney's experience, see the articles, 'Erosion And Death Follows,' and 'So... You Want Which Fox To Guard The Hen house?'

All surveys or polls are based on the questions asked, and in addition the answers, on which analysis is based, are opinions, not facts. Take this type of tool and place it in the hands of the privately-owned major media, all of which are biased and controlled, Google/see Project Mockingbird, and you can generate any outcome you want and present it for public consumption: can anyone spell P-R-O-P-A-G-A-N-D-A? 

Obama's record is abysmal EVEN at its zenith, but then again, he wants to replace the The Unanimous Declaration of Independence and The U.S. Constitution with something similar to or worse than the NDRP which he signed into law, avoiding all the complicated procedures stated in the Constitution 'like the legislative branch of governance which is subject to judicial review of the other branch of governance,' and simply made the NDRP an Executive Order, fait accompli.

When considering such important areas of governance (the ways in which our government works), artificial contraceptives, abortion, and sterilization have absolutely no importance or place, as does gay marriage rights. These, if taken up by some non-governmental organization, are social and religious matters. Then again, there is that pesky Constitution and its purpose of day-to-day operation of the nation and the protection of the citizens to which it belongs. I suppose someone could appoint someone, like the excommunicated catholic Kathleen Sebelius as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to write regulations into law. After all she had quite a bit of experience in helping to write Obamacare. Now 41 Catholic Dioceses and Organizational groups have named HHS Secretary Sebelius, Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and their departments as defendants in federal courts around the country for violating their freedom of religion, which is guaranteed by the First Amendment to the US Constitution.

CFR Member Willard Mittington Romney has already subscribed to the policies of Bush and Obama, See 'Bigger Sharper Teeth...': his voting record proves it and the policies of the CFR are a matter of public record:  the destruction of the United States as a sovergn Nation comprised of sovereign individuals in favor of One World Government (NWO). Is there any wonder why Bush Jr. has publicly endorsed and is now supporting Willard Mittington Romney.

Neither the Obama Jackass nor the Romney Elephant is fit to be ridden or walked in the park.
