The Patriot Act

Endless Power

The Tea Party movement, birthed out of the 2008 Presidential campaign of U. S. Representative Ron Paul, is not specifically known for what they believe in rather what they are against. One issue the group is unified against, and has developed conflict with the Republican Party leadership in congress over is the Patriot Act.

On Thursday May 26, 2011 Congress, with the support and backing of the Republican legislators passed a 4 year extension of specified sections set to expire within the Patriot Act. This legislation has violated multiple aspects of our Constitution, Bill of Rights, original intent and the founding principles of America's Republic. The Patriot Act, in collusion with other passed legislation over the years allows units of government unprecedented powers, against real and perceived threats including American citizens. In addition, many aspects of the Patriot Act have no relationship to preserving American's liberty, rather a myriad of other unconstitutional usurpations of power and nation building around the world; for an example read the post "We the People's" Government, in this newsletter.

Definitions within the Patriot Act allow for a broad brush of defining combatants including people or groups who support 3^rd party candidates, gun rights supporters, people who advance the concept of a Constitution just to name a few; specifically targeting "Lone Wolf" terrorists, individuals who are looking to reverse the existing makeup of the national government. Under these definitions and interpretations of such definitions allows our national government agencies unknown limits over people.

Our elected leaders have Constitutional mandates, and much of the Patriot Act fails to meet the "smell test". Last week Minnesota had 4 Republicans in the United States House voted to extend the Patriot Act for 4 more years. They are Kline, Bachmann, Paulson and Cravaack of which Bachmann and Cravaack ran on the liberty message during their 2010 campaign. As "We the People" continue re-electing public officials not willing to comply with original intent, the supreme rule of law in our founding documents and their only oath to defend our Constitution, our liberty will disappear with the next sunset; regardless of party affiliation, speeches or campaign promises.

We live in the 11^th hour of liberty in America and need REAL patriots willing to act, not spin their voting records, and stand on principle.

The American Revolution

Do We Care

I supported Ron Paul for president in 2008 when forces in the media, political arena and the Republican Party felt otherwise; for 2012 I am further committed to a 2012 President Ron Paul.

As I watch the presidential campaign process unfolding within the Republican Party and other national political parties I notice a greater acceptance and interest in a Ron Paul for president campaign among the media, and general population. Polls are placing Ron Paul in 2 and 3 place among likely primary Republican voters; including a CNN poll two weeks ago showing Ron Paul the best possible Republican candidate to beat Obama in 2012 trailing by just 7%.

Even if the general population would chose to elect Ron Paul for president over Obama in 2012, Ron Paul has to navigate the fickle Republican delegates and party bureaucracy first. To that end, I am providing this video link of Ron Paul's statement on the United States House of Representatives last week. Ron Paul has principles, is incredibly intelligent, ready to serve his country as president, wise beyond so many others running for office. If the American Revolution happens, a revolution returning our national legislature, executive, and judiciary branches to original intent of our founding fathers under a Constitutional Representative Republic, then President Ron Paul is our choice for the times.

Finally I admit Ron Paul is not perfect, is human, and 74 years old, but I remind you Moses was 80, Noah was 500, along with many of our founding fathers being "ripe" in age; besides age really does not matter when you jog 4 miles a day and have a sharp mind.

Disaster Media Coverage

Lacking From USA

A 1986 the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster occurred in the Soviet Republic of the Ukraine affecting the northern hemisphere with varying levels of radiation, causing from 20,000 to 500,000 long term deaths depending on the source. 30 years later the environment still has hundreds of square miles of land under quarantine, prohibiting human habitation. The radiation is resurfacing from the abandoned plant and a 500 foot carcofagious costing over $1,500,000,000.00 is under construction.

In 2011 a disaster, by some accounts a thousand times deadlier and catastrophic than Chernobyl is occurring in the North East coast of Japan. The location has 6 nuclear plants, 4 in various stages of catastrophic failure. 3 of the reactors have experienced full fuel rod meltdown, are in varied levels uncontrolled radiation emission with no real solutions for containment.

The groundwater, air, ocean, and land are totally exposed to unprecedented radiation levels, requiring decades of cleanup whenever containment and control is solidified. Radiation contamination has spread across the "ocean Blue" thru atmospheric wind patterns, polluting water, food supplies and plant life from Hawaii to Europe. The Pacific Ocean around the power plant location is experiencing extremely high levels of radiation contamination and untold migrating sea life continues passing through the radiation cloud, picking up the radiated seawater.

This entire catastrophe continues with no media coverage in America and reduced or eliminated radiation level reporting by the EPA or NRC.

"We the People's" Government

No Longer

For your enjoyment, here are just a couple pages of a portion of the renewed Patriot Act passed last week. The section provided below is part of 235 page section of the multi section renewed Patriot Act that is packed with this type of content. Remember this text is just the outline and public law allowing government agencies to spend, plan, implement and take action based on these parameters. As an example the Obama Care universal health care bill of 2010 was just over 1,000 pages and when the various departments finished writing the related rules the bill is well past 16,000 pages of Bureaucracy.
