Disrupt the Process – Revolt with Your Vote

It is no longer the Democrats and Republicans. It is the haves and have-nots. The American people make up the ranks of the have-nots. Your party has betrayed you by overwhelmingly passing things like the Thought Control Bill, free trade agreements, the Patriot Act, and other bills that chip away at your freedom and economic prosperity. Your party has refused to stop the Iraq war which is what they were put in charge of Congress to do. Obviously, it makes no difference which party is in charge.

Dianne Feinstein provides us with proof of this. She has helped Bush author the Patriot Act and illegally enriched herself while in office. Feinstein was chairperson and ranking member of Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee. For six years, during which time she had a conflict of interest due to her husband Richard C. Blum's ownership of two major defense contractors, who were awarded billions of dollars for military construction projects approved by Feinstein. As MILCON leader, She went on trips to military bases around the world to inspect construction projects, some of which were contracted to her husband's companies, Perini Corp. and URS Corp. She resigned from MILCON as her ethical problems were surfacing in the media, and as it was becoming clear that she left wounded veterans uncared for as she profited from the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan. Her husband cashed out selling his interest in the companies her actions had benefited. Let’s see, a wife and husband with different last names working together to become rich at the expense of the American people. Talk about thievery. Talk about war profiteering.

Because she supports Bush in his efforts, she has not been investigated or prosecuted and remains in office. She screams at the top of her lungs that immigration laws are broken when she is one of the ones, having been in office sine the early nineties, who did not enforce our current laws. She is currently pushing her agJOBS bill, which is the illegal immigration Amnesty Bill with a different name. She recently sent me a letter justifying the agJOBS Bill by saying that crops were rotting in the ground because Americans don’t want to do agricultural work. It’s strange how this crop rotting has not been in the news. Only 10% of illegal aliens do agricultural work but her stated purpose is to “provide a path for all illegal aliens to come out of the shadows”. By calling it the agJOBS Bill, it’s very clear that she thinks that Americans won’t object to “letting the Mexicans do the agricultural work”. With the American economy headed towards disaster, she recently voted to approve free trade agreements that will remove more jobs from American soil.

It’s long past time that this betraying criminal left office. If you Google, there are many articles about Feinstein’s war profiteering. Here is one - Thief

While the Congress goes on and on about their public fight to end the Iraq genocide, they overwhelmingly have passed bills, under the radar, that allow Bush to search your home, classify you as a traitor, and imprison you. Bush can now mobilize the National Guard and declare martial law in any state for any reason. The Secret Service admitted that the National Guard’s confiscation of guns in a law abiding, middle class white neighborhood in New Orleans after Katrina was a trial run. If you missed it, the Guard pulled up to people’s homes, removed them from their home, and made them sit on the curb while their homes were searched for weapons. At least one National Guardsman was seen on TV saying, “We don’t want to think too much about what we’re doing today”.

Starting in 2008, you will be required to carry a barcoded Federal ID card. An FID chip will be added to the cards soon aftewards. If you don't get a Federal ID card, don't worry. FIDs are already in new passports being issued and will soon be added to your drivers license. The Feds will be able to track your every movement and if you misbehave, just turn your chip off.

Don’t be fooled by the resent passage of legislation that is supposed to give homeowners relief from rising payments from ARMs and saving them. This is about providing this country’s illegal Federal Reserve System relief. If a financial institution is holding a mortgage and they know that the interest rate is going to rise to the point where the homeowner can no longer afford the payment, a government backed fixed rate loan can be substituted. If the homeowner then defaults, the government will pay the financial institution. Since the government doesn’t have the money to pay off the loan, it will be borrowed from the Fed. The Fed then gets paid the interest that it would have made on the loan. Your taxes are used to pay the interest. This legislation not only insures the Fed against loss, it insures their profit.

So, with your government run amuck and depriving you of your freedom and economic solvency on a daily basis, what can be done? Rather than be appalled by what the Republican party did to Cynthia McKinney, we can take a lesson. If you are not familiar with the McKinney saga, the Republican party, knowing that a Democrat was going to be elected in her district, decided to get their own Democrat elected. They did this by calling Republicans in the district and urging them to vote Democratic for the Democratic candidate of the Republican Party’s choice. Through this process, called cross-over voting, they were able to defeat McKinney who asked the tough questions and did not go along with the status quo. You can view a documentary on this here - Blackout The McKinney story is right after the voting fraud in Florida.

With this in mind and viewing the current batch of Democratic candidates, who represent more of the same, the best way to save your country may be to get the Republican candidate of your choice elected. Believing in “know your enemy” concept, I have followed the Republican debates. Like the Democratic candidates, the Republican choice is about deciding which one is lying the least.

Watching the Republican debate, I turned it off believing that all of the candidates are, in bigger and smaller ways, for reducing government spending, reducing the size of government, states rights, reclaiming jobs for the country, ending illegal immigration, ending the Iraq genocide, getting rid of the FRB’s/big business enslavement process, reducing American dependence on foreign energy sources, developing alternative fuel sources, lowering or eliminating taxes, pro-life, improving education, establishing better trade agreements, the 2nd Amendment, and everything else that everyone seems to want. The only debate was about who had done the most to try to achieve these things previously. It makes you wonder how all of these things came to be through so many Republican administrations. The only one who seemed to really believe what he was saying was Ron Paul.

Even though I favor Paul, it is not my intent to promote him. My intent is to encourage Democrats to send a clear message to their party by not voting for any incumbent and, in many cases, using cross-over voting to get the Republican candidate of your choice elected. This may be one of the last times your vote can make a difference. Revote with your vote and let the government know that the country belongs to the people. The government does not give us freedom or rights. We are born with them. The government is supposed to protect them.
