Statism: The Bankrupt Ideology
2008-05-12 03:08:00 "Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government."--James MadisonOf course, that is exactly what has happened in this country, we have allowed a certain political ideology, composed of members of both the left and the right, to infect it with particular brand of Statism that is little more than a hybrid of Fascism and Socialism.So, what happened to the Constitutional Republic, why, as Statist claim, didn't the Constitution remain viable and continue to work if it were such a sublime document as touted by those, like myself, as the ultimate political form for the advancement of society and the individuals who make it up?What Statist fail, utterly fail to realize or admit, is that this country and its government has fallen to the Statist.

Rights Retained By The People
2008-05-12 03:07:00 "All Power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are no other sources. All delegated power is trust, all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." Thomas PaineAs Thomas Paine said, time does not alter either the nature or the quality of the principles behind power. Either that power is delegated from a superior source of Sovereignty or it is assumed and therefore usurped. Now, the question of Sovereignty is perhaps one of the most important questions concerning the degree and quality of Liberty within this country. Only a Sovereign Source can delegate power and authority; likewise, only a Subordinate Source can receive those delegated powers and authority to act upon them.It then becomes quite obvious in the following words within the Declaration of Independence where all Sovereignty emanates: "That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just po...

Freedom Contingent Upon Compliance Is Not Freedom!
2008-05-12 03:05:00 It is imperative to understand that this country is formed solely upon the Sovereignty of the People themselves and that in that Sovereignty, they have, out of both necessity and desire, come together to form communities of governments to act both on their behalf and upon their Consent. This Sovereignty finds its expression, and has done so, in the governments of the Several States, which in turn, have reflected their Will in the formation of a federation of States called the United States.The Several States, in the purist expression of the People's Sovereignty have formed, established and delegated the government federal. The Rights of the People are embedded in the Rights of the States, you cannot have one without the other, nor can you have a delegation of authority and power without such Rights, both Reserved and Delegated. It is the Delegated Trust, from the People through the medium of their Respective States to the federal government, which pronounced and delineates the Sove... More About: Freedom , Compliance
The Death Nel Rings For The Federal Reserve
2008-05-12 03:04:00 Though not apparent at the moment, the ringing of the Death Nel is getting louder each day for the Federal Reserve and its Fiat Monetary Debacle. In fact, there are few that have even heard it's ringing, but soon it will toll louder and louder. As more and more of the People of this country awaken to the devious functions of the Federal Reserve and its partner in crime, the government and its pandering politicians, the time is close at hand when they will no longer allow such reckless and illegal shenanigans. Along with the welcomed death of this hideous quasi-governmental monstrosity called the Federal Reserve, will come the end of our government, as we know it. When enough People realize what has actually taken place and what the government, along with their banking partners have done to this country then they really will be up in arms.There is one incredibly fantastic trait inherent within all Fiat Monetary Systems and that is that they are mathematically impossible to sustain i...

The Federal Breach Of Trust
2008-05-12 03:03:00 The People of this country formed a social compact; that compact was contained and detailed within the written Constitution giving the exact extent of powers they deemed necessary to the government. As you note, these were powers that were delegated to the government by the People, not relinquished. There has never been a single power relinquished by the People, any power within the function of the government is isolated through the action of Delegated Trust based upon the Sovereignty of the People.This was to ensure that the People themselves enjoyed a very qualified Liberty of Action, Freedom from unnecessary restraints, unnecessary requisitions or extractions from the government. Of those limitations, the People in their Sovereignty gave their limited Consent to the government to function within a very, very narrow frame of action primarily for the sole purpose of the defense of the Liberty and the Rights for which they formed the government in the first place.Any measures incons...

Sovereignty Is The Highest Degree Of Political Power
2008-05-12 03:03:00 "Sovereignty is the highest degree of political power, and the establishment of a form of government, the highest proof which can be given of its existence. The states could have not reserved any rights by articles of their union, if they had not been sovereign, because they could have no rights, unless they flowed from that source. In the creation of the federal government, the states exercised the highest act of sovereignty, and they may, if they please, repeat the proof of their sovereignty, by its annihilation. But the union possesses no innate sovereignty, like the states; it was not self-constituted; it is conventional, and of course subordinate to the sovereignties by which it was formed." -John Taylor of Caroline.~The attempt to unify the Executive and Judicial powers by this Administration as others also have in the past, and to basically nullify the powers of Congress, will ultimately subject the People to no permanent security in their Rights, their Liberty, or their Free...

The 17th Amendment and the Nationalized Senate
2008-04-01 23:58:00 It is interesting that the goal of tyranny is clearly stated in an early 1880 news editorial that relates to the election of Garfield. In it you will notice the last word in all caps: REXThe Sentinel said it best: “Garfield’s rule will be the transitory period between State Sovereignty and National Sovereignty. The United States Senate will give way to a National Senate. State Constitutions and the United States Senate are relics of State Sovereignty and implements of treason. Garfield’s Presidency will be the Regency of Stalwartism; after that-REX.”As is evident in this paragraph, the need to affect a National Senate was seen as essential in the conquest of State Sovereignty and reigning in what can only be considered as a Monarchist government, or a Monarchist Oligarchy. Indeed, James Garfield himself said it very clear when he proclaimed the following words:“The influence of Jefferson’s Democratic principles is rapidly waning, while the principles of Hamilton are rapi...

The Bloodline of Tyranny
2008-03-31 15:06:00 The Bloodline of Tyranny can be traced back in this country to a mentality that formed within the circles of power that began to consolidate during the Constitutional Convention. Within those debates the desire for a federal oligarchy was planted, pruned back, yet the roots of that desire remained, living deep within the soil, ready to sprout and spread its vile contempt for the Liberty of the People. This seed of Tyrannical Oligarchy can be easily traced through various political policies and actions from the beginning until this present time.There were several distinctions between the two groups, the two mind-sets; it is no different today as this struggle continues for our Liberty. The mind-set of oligarchy has not changed, nor have those who support such mentalities, nor has the battle that began during those formative years of our Republic. It became evident that there were two very different rationales at work; one quickly became represented by the Federalist Party on one side...
The 1952 Republican Platform Reaches From The Past To Condemn the Bush Admi
2007-12-16 18:15:00 Over the years, the Republican Party has been gradually transformed into a Party that promotes a Neo-Conservative Agenda that is far removed from not only the historic stance of the Republican Party, but also from the historic stance of this Constitutional Republic. The Neo-Con pedigree stems from a leftist agenda that includes followers of Leo Strauss and Leon Trotsky; they’re about as far to the left as you can get without taking the label of a Marxist/Leninist. These Neo-Cons are the people that have been in charge of the leadership of this government and the Republican Party for the last seven years.So, to understand how much the Republican Party has been distorted by these professional political agents of this Leftist Philosophy you need not go any further than the Republican Platform of 1952 for comparison. I have made a very few minor changes in the platform, such as replacing the word “democrat” with the “republican” and the word “Korea” with the word “Iraq... More About: Bush , Past , The Bush
Dangerous Consequences
2007-12-02 02:06:00 For over 109 years this country has pursued a policy of intervention around the globe and if you honestly research the outcome of such intervention you will quickly see that it did very little to actually provide security for this nation. Most of the intervention was prompted by special interests, such as Sugar Magnates and Mercantilists during the Spanish-American War. This War opened the door to a massive drive toward global intervention by the United States government.Along with the resources and markets of the Far East, Southeast Asia and Central America were also prime targets of the new expansive policies of the United States during this period of the later part of the 19th Century. The intent was to exploit our growing military might around the world while securing potential markets and natural resources. The United States came to the rescue as the “savior” of the oppressed colonial peoples under the rule of Spain, from the Philippines to Cuba a particular brand of libert...

When Our Money Was Our Property!
2007-11-26 00:21:00 There was a time in our country when our money was our property. It was more than just a medium of exchange or an economic instrument; it was, in a very real sense, property. When a man labored he received compensation in value equal to his work, his produce or his creativity; the money he earned was his property, just as anything else he owned. He could be assured that his money was a store of real value, he could spend it as he pleased, he could store in a bank, stuff it in his mattress or bury it in a mason jar in his back yard and it was no ones business but his own. He could be confident in the value of his money, that he could dig that mason jar from the ground years later and still have money that kept an equivalent value as when he buried it, it was real money, sound money and it was his private property. He could be assured that his government could not confiscate it, track it or regulate it once it was in his hands; it was real property, his property. He need not worry a...

The Dangers of Machiavellian Jingoism
2007-11-08 04:46:00 While we have been conditioned that it is patriotic to accept a history that portrays our country in the best light possible, the real patriotism is looking at our history honestly and even critically, thereby learning from such lessons both the successes and the failures it provides. It is shameful, and perhaps even dangerous when we allow our history to be colored, misrepresented or manipulated to support ideologies, agendas, or causes. It is an absolute mistake to use patriotism as a factor in convincing the American People to choose a spirit of aggression and intolerance in policy making over than the traditional values found within our Constitution and the Founding Documents. If we are to profit from the errors of the last century in particular, the we would come away from our history lesson with a very clear understanding that the United States has strayed extremely far from its foundation and it has costs us dearly.In viewing the history of the Twentieth Century, we can quick...

The War On Terror & Our Center Of Gravity
2007-10-13 20:02:00 Eventually, it will become apparent that the ignorance of rage that characterizes our “War on Terror ”, will betray this government, this nation and its people. We have thrown our natural rage into the game of war with those we consider “terrorists” and an immediate threat to our future however, in that rage we have overlooked several very important and perhaps critical issues that will affect our futures in ways that we are yet unaware. In all the rhetoric, the hatred that we believe our enemies deserve and the reaction to their attacks we have, it seems, willingly played into their plans while pursuing our quest for revenge and “defense”. It is commonly stated that the devil is in the details, in this case that is absolutely correct. We have been confronted with an enemy that is not bound by convention, by international boundaries, by nationalities nor even by the values that we have long considered familiar in terms of Western or traditional warfare.

The Ease of Power
2007-08-13 05:26:00 "Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government."--James Madison Indeed, that is exactly what we have seen in this country is a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government. Because of the use of such arbitrary interpretation and therefore application, I think we should not be surprised when someone like Bush overtly trespasses against the Constitution. The Constitution’s standing in this country has been neutralized by a variety of political philosophies, the least of these are those who advocate original intent based upon a Christianized view of the founding of this country. Others have simply sought to render it so flexible that it no longer retains the viability of protection that they claim to support. These factions fail to see the meanings behind the principles, those both philosophical and practical. The principles, u... More About: Power , Ease
The Voluntary Act Of A Reflective Union Of States
2007-07-30 05:48:00 Once again I want to bring up the superior system of the Republic in respects to the equal application of the Rights of all Citizens. The erosion of this extremely important principle from the governance of this country has been devastating to the cause of the individual, no matter what race, creed or gender. Those who seek majoritarian rule have transformed us into a national society and that fact has, in essence, crippled the proper and equitable functions of the Republic. The Constitution was not given by the assent of individuals that composed a nation, but as individuals that composed the independent and very distinct States in which they held citizenship. The States, based upon the authority of the People, then assented to the ratification of the Constitution as being federal in nature and not national. There is a very distinct and important difference that directly effects the not only the legislative process, but the application of law relating to the Right of the People and...

The State Desires Divisions
2007-07-22 16:46:00 We must all come to understand that as long as anyone depends on their minority status to determine their rights then the majority will only recognize a degree of rights based solely upon a specified set of what the majority considers allowable and therefore, contingent freedoms. In other words, the majority will always restrict the rights of the minority unless the minority can base their rights upon something other than the specific attributes and or definitions of that minority. The government is not inclined to, nor does it obligate itself to ensure the Rights of any person in this country although it was created to protect the Rights of every individual. It is up to the individual to combatively insist and aggressively pursue his or her Rights before the government. It is People, first and foremost, that form the State Republics through acting on a cooperative and voluntary basis, but with an extreme prejudice toward their Rights.

They prefer Our Silence to Our Consent
2007-07-04 19:19:00 When we submit our ideas and inner thoughts to the judgment of others, we stake ourselves upon both the common passions and therefore the criticisms of those who consider our opinions, be they right or wrong.Thus, in my opinion, the present disposition of this government toward the People, in matters of their ability to both determine and maintain their own lives within the confidence of Liberty, is that of complete and abject opposition. Under the disease of widespread complacency, We have surrendered our combative Right of Dissent and indeed the Right of Defense against any and all onslaughts of Our Freedom by the very institution designed and pledged to protect such Freedom.We have, to Our own demise and degradation, provided allowance after allowance to those, whose primary purpose is to govern solely at Our Pleasure and by Our Consent, and they have taken full advantage of Our lack of the Spirit of Opposition to fundamentally change the manner in which they govern this federati...

The Responsibility of Liberty
2007-05-19 04:23:00 In viewing the last 50 years or so, one must come to the conclusion that the U.S. Government is taking the same domestic policy as it does its foreign policy: interventionism. The ills of the world and indeed the ills of individuals or even classes of people will never be solved by the intervention of the government and that fact has been proven time and time again with failed wars, failed policies, and failed programs.The State Apparatus is incapable of sustaining itself as the ultimate support group for the world or for that matter, its own citizens because it was never intended to do either. The only valid utility our government has is limited to defending our own borders and protecting the Rights, Freedom and Liberty of the individual. The government does not have the responsibility to make decisions for each individual any more than it has the responsibility for any other nation or group of nations around the world. Its scope of responsibility is extremely limited and yet it h...
The Inclinations of Men in Power
2007-05-19 04:03:00 We live in perilous times, of that there is no doubt, but the peril comes from within our government, more so than from a foreign threat. The Founding Fathers were well aware of the inclination of men in power to seek that power without restraint or limitation, for it is indeed the nature of power to corrupt the hearts and minds of men.Because of this, the Founding Fathers were keenly aware of the safeguards necessary to define restrictions upon all branches of our government. No one branch would be allowed to become independent of the other in order to fulfill its duties to the Citizens of this Nation. In addition to these restrictions, the Founding Fathers also depended on the outcry of the People to restrict such abbreviations as might occur when those in power stepped outside the boundaries of Constitutional Order. Unfortunately, there are always those in power who seek to subvert the limitations placed upon them by the use of various means from subtle legislation to Executive O... More About: Power
Lest We Forget
2007-05-19 04:02:00 When we try to understand the proper role that government plays within this Republic then we should also gain knowledge about how government deviates from the Constitutional line of authority in it’s usurpations, and the effects deviations have upon this Nation. When a government seeks to usurp power, it normally does so through a myriad of bureaucratic appointments, contrary to Constitutional Order. Within the bureaucratic labyrinth it can twist the law in a number of ways which will always follow a certain path of base confusion and within that confusion it relies upon one thing to achieve its goals of sovereignty over the People and that is the complacency of the People. Bureaucracy’s intent is to always create a system that can be used to confound the People, one in which there is a “law” for every crime and that law is usually arbitrary, vague and complicated. The “law” becomes relative, hard and cold, without equality or justice, it becomes divisive to society and ... More About: Forge
The Ultimate Guardian of The Constitution
2007-05-18 03:34:00 The government endlessly promotes itself as the “protector” and ultimate guardian of Our Constitution and the Rights guaranteed by that document; it is, of course, not true. The cloak, behind which it hides, is wearing thin as it continually expands its interest and authority over the People while ignoring the Law of the Land.The government, in its self-promotion, has done all it can to ensure that the People remain under the belief that their Rights remain safe and secure under its false stewardship. Under the constant guise of government respect for the enduring principles of the Constitution, it unfortunately uses the Peoples conditioned trust to subvert and nullify the very document it is employed to uphold.The stance of the People, under the Law, has always been that of an Adversary to the government’s ability to usurp authority.

2006-12-03 16:40:00 During the period that the Federal Reserve Act was passed, so to was the 16th and 17th Amendment to the Constitution. Of course, many people tend to realize that the 16th Amendment (Progressive Income Tax) and the Federal Reserve Act have not been in the best interest of the People, but few realize that the 17th Amendment has caused major damage to this former Constitutional Republic. It is strange that the same politicians didn’t attempt to amend the Constitution to include the Federal Reserve Act and deny Congress the authority to coin money; perhaps they thought themselves lucky to “ratify” the 16th and 17th Amendments.Section 3 of the Constitution states:"The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each state, chosen by the legislature thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote.Immediately after they shall be assembled in consequence of the first election, they shall be divided as equally as may be into three classes.

The Difference Between Now and the 1930s
2006-11-27 00:04:00 There are a great many similarities between the economic indicators today and those of the late 1920s, but there are differences that are even more important than the similarities.The parallels are more or less obvious, but it is the differences that should actually concern us regarding any comparisons between what we face today as opposed to what we faced in the Crash of 29 and the Great Depression of the 30s.One of the biggest and perhaps one of the most potentially devastating is the U.S. Trade Deficit. Once again, while the similarities pose a serious problem, the differences pose a grave threat that the people who endured the Great Depression never had to worry about. Actually, the U.S. and the People of that day were much more “prepared”, if you can call it that, then we are now in 2006.

Taxation-Government Tool For Control and Tyranny
2006-11-11 05:51:00 I have to wonder just how long we will continue to allow this government to maintain its Social Ruse on the People? The subject is Income Tax, Social Security and Medicare Tax and it’s usage. We are told that it is to provide the government with much needed revenue to operate and keep our nation strong and safe, to provide the needed services and benefits. It is a very useful tool in the hands of politicians and bureaucrats, but its purpose is not that which is publicized or promoted. You see, these taxes form a very powerful system of social compliance, but little else. It all starts with the monetary system that has been imposed upon this country: The Federal Reserve Bank and its Fiat Currency System. In reality, what the banks do with mortgages and loans is very similar to what the government does. Banks lend you and I money that doesn’t exist until the moment you sign the mortgage or loan note.In the Federal Reserve publication "I Bet You Thought" states: "Printed Federal Re...

Peace, The Enemy of The State
2006-10-07 15:53:00 Tyranny is the logical conclusion of every people who lose the sense of their Natural Rights, and it appears that is, for most Americans, the case. As with every threat, the governments response to that threat determines the extent our Rights are affected. Although I am sure that there are very real threats in the world, the “War on Terror” is just another in a long line of threats that has been effectively used by government “Statists” over the last two centuries, used to their advantage over the People. We can see this trend, as it began, when John Adams implemented the Aliens and Sedition Act of 1798, then again in the War between the Several State s, which had little to do with the slavery issue and more to do with a Federal power grab.

It is well known that people are not naturally inclined toward revolution or disobedience; it is normally thrust upon them due to times of tyrannical distress and overt misery. The point should be to divert the possibility that such a time will ever come to this Nation. It is becoming obvious that the ability of the People to redress their grievances has been, for all intents and purposes, all but nullified by the government.
