Dear IRS, I am notifying you that I demand a refund...

Dear IRS and State Financial Folks,

I am writing you to hereby, formally let you know that I am demanding a refund, in full, of the taxes I have paid since... ever. I would also like to inform you that I am no longer going to pay taxes .... ever. My justification for this is sufficiently supported under the United States Constitution, the Declarations of State and Federal Governmental law and the dictates of my rights as an American. Of course, I will no longer be requiring your services, or the few services that have been continuously forced upon me. Instead, I will be directly paying the agencies whose services I do require for their continued support. As for the monies that I am supposedly 'owed' via social security and other such services, I am demanding that you do not use this as your basis for your calculations, but, in fact, that you provide a refund based in full, upon what I have physically paid in. The monies I have paid in are more than 50% gone based on their misappropriations, and so, you will have to return everything to me. Finally, please be informed that I believe your office is rude, crude and a social injustice to the American people. I would just as soon spit on you as see you, and I say that in whole, as a Christian, knowing that God pretty much feels the same way.

So, first off, why I am demanding a refund of everything I have EVER paid in to taxes.

1. You do not represent my interests in war or in the efforts of our troops and you have betrayed my Democratic right to vote on such issues by allowing the Government to send troops to war whenever they want. Besides, the majority of monies I have paid for our troops has not gone to them, but more than 80% of it has gone to 'specialized,' over-priced, black-box projects that resulted in technology that is now boxed up in a warehouse and useless. I agreed to pay for the troops to protect this country, not scientists to build toys.

2. This stimulus package has already multiplied the gross, national debt by an amount so far beyond reason, that it alone, accounts for all the money that I have paid in. And, instead of being used to support the 'people,' where I would have preferred, Congress and the President have acted in direct opposition to the people and have fed the money to financial institutions and insurance companies that do not provide me any services, do not affect my life and quite honestly, it was bad enough that Congress was getting fat and rich off of me, but to know that non-governmental agencies are getting fat and rich off of me is insulting and intolerable.

3. The U.S. Government forgave the rest of the world their debts, running up our own bills, and then used my money to pay off our debts to other countries. Debts, which I might add, have come at an even greater cost to our economy and hurt my job and cost me a healthy paycheck. This includes outsourcing jobs and education which has increased the price of tuition in college, and prevented me from having the right to pursue a positively supporting lifestyle, for the whole of America.

4. A good portion of my money has gone to fund you. While that, in and of itself, is enough said, given your flippant attitudes, your rudeness, your exempt-ness from law, the fact is, I do not enjoy working, to pay you as my employee, so that you can mistreat me, step on me, hurt my friends and loved ones and quite honestly, your services are no longer required, so as your employer: you're fired. Additionally, my money has been used for agencies like CPS that continue to go unmonitored, hurt innocent children and if you dare have the audacity to take this to a court of law, I am going to enjoy, most thoroughly, watching you stand before the World, on camera, and justify why you should be permitted to take my money to hurt innocent children. Choke on that.

5. A good portion of my money is consistently being used to establish fear-mongering and abuse me through increased law enforcement, prosecutions, court rooms and jails that I did NOT approve of. These institutions are not keeping me safe. They are interfering in my life, and quite honestly, they owe me a LOT more than they can afford in all the heartache and fear they've caused throughout the years. When these people make quadruple the amount I do, and yet harass me and treat me like garbage, well - it's like having to pay for YOU. I DO NOT support it.

Just FYI, what I AM going to do with my money is this:

  •    I will join with a group of others in determining what the Fire department's budget is - and contribute.
  •    If the police are willing to get back down to doing what it is they're supposed to, I'll contribute.
  •    I WILL be giving my money directly to the schools, so you don't suck out over 50% for your overhead so they can actually function.
  •    I will be investing my money into areas where I believe it can grow, not the banks, not the insurance companies and sure as heck not the rest of the world, except where trade is openly and freely supported with countries who don't want to see us dead and that we are treating respectfully.
  •    I will be giving my money to certain types of assistance programs such as programs that help the disabled, where these programs are not run by the GOVERNMENT and give people free money because they're "depressed," but give money to those who are ACTUALLY disabled and ACTUALLY in need and working to get a better life. (of course, I’ll prioritize on those being ripped off by the pharmaceuticals…)
  •    I will give my money to the politicians that consider MY vote as important. The politicians who actually CARE what the PEOPLE have to say and represent us will continue to have my support - in fair proportion to the work they do.
  •    I will give my money to those government agencies that compete for my business and can show me how they are properly utilizing the funds to support me, whether it's right now, in the future or at an unpredictable time when I might need them. I will not pay $5000 for toilet seats in government facilities any longer. Believe me, it will be fun to watch them have to answer for all they do. Of course, this last one will include everything ranging from libraries to school programs, and other reasonable services that are designed to help the whole of humanity, not some special interest groups.
  •    I will give my money to prosecutors who bring cases with factual evidence and don't risk sending innocent people to prison.
  •    I will give my money to courthouses that place Constitutional Rights before personal agendas.

And the rest, I'll figure out for myself (i.e. properly investing my social security retirement monies so I actually HAVE some when it comes my time to retire). Because, in truth, you have done nothing but squander, waste and abuse the funds I have entrusted to you. And, while you may only be the 'financial' department for the Government, I hold you just as responsible as I do them for collecting and properly allocating my money, because that is YOUR JOB. It's NOT to harass the people and be jerks. It's to do good bookkeeping. And, by the current state of the economy, as accountants with a current $21 trillion dollar deficit - YOU SUCK.

Of course, I will be taking my check to a REAL accountant to confirm that you have properly refunded EVERYTHING as I have NO reason to trust your accounting skills. Please be advised that I will bill you for any amount that you do not properly provide me at the standard collections interest rate you screw people with of: 3% per DAY. I would thank you for your services over the years, but the truth is, your services have been worthless. Thank you for your time today, and God Bless...

Sincerely,

The livid Americans of this Country

...... wouldn't it be nice....

... on the other hand - if we ALL sent this in this April - wouldn't it be AWESOME - after ALL the money Obama is spending, to see their faces!!! Almost worth it...

ahh... to dream

Is war really coming? Is Afganistan the answer?

 A short while ago I posted my discussion on what I felt were key points in the last 100 years of American History that have brought us to today. I did that because I felt it was important for you folks to be able to see the truth - at least from my perspective - and when mixed with all the other malarkey out there, formulate your own opinions and draw your own conclusions. Of the points I made about World War I, following the sinking of the Lusitania (conspiracy theories aside), was the point where the American people, outraged, cried out for War! They didn't care if it crashed the economy. They specifically said - we don't care if we go bankrupt, if we lose our homes, if we suffer- they wanted revenge.
 
The other evening I heard it from Phil Hendrie (partially paraphrased as I couldn't get it all... sorry)- "Why should Obama have to explain his maneuvers in Afghanistan? I think he does it because he's surrounded himself by liberal cowards and people in Congress whispering in his ears. I'm glad we're there. Let's get those mothers. Let's smoke their rat-asses out. I don't care if it bankrupts us even. I don't care if we can't afford it. So, fine, I can't put a new room on my house or get a loan. As long as we stop those child-killing terrorists."
 
And, I heard it on Dennis Miller (also paraphrased in part), "So what if we kill them. You know what I think? Anyone willing to slap a bomb around a child's waist and send them out to die should be killed, all of them!"
 
And, I cried.
 
I try telling you that history repeats itself. It's one thing for 'conditions' to be similar. It's another thing for them to be EXACT. When the people cry out - kill them - kill them all - go to war - we don't care if it bankrupts us -
 
It's a repeat of what has been. Do I think that it's okay that terrorists kill people? Duhh--- obviously not. I'm against ANY government that hurts its own people - starting with OUR OWN. But, the stage is set. The trends are the same - failing economy, people unemployed, an opportunity for war and to rebuild the country, people driven to support the government going hogwild with taxes and money by seeing their own die - but - there's still one more element missing....
 
An attack on American soil. And, I'm not talking the 9/11 garbage. I'm talking a real one. Sure, losing family members, friends, loved ones - sucks. But, when the circumstances are conspiratal at best, I want justice from the one who actually did it - NOT - who was accused. And, what is happening? The American "experts" on terrorists (how in the hell does that work?) "speculate", from the comfort of their American offices in Washington D.C., that the Taliban and Al Qaeda are gathering in Afghanistan and preparing for an attack on American soil.
 
They speculate...... they're guessing. You see, the trouble I had with America going over seas to get the terrorists who committed the 9/11 atrocities is this: Those terrorists are DEAD. They were ON the plane. They died. Sure, maybe there are people over seas in the same types of militias that encouraged them - but they didn't force them. These people went of their own government-driven/media-driven/secular-driven agendas. They came here to 'weed out' and 'kill the infidels.'
 
Well, what are we doing? We are being told by the government, the media and in many cases even our religions, that these people are bad. We are told this from birth. We are told we have to go over there to 'weed out' and 'kill the infidels.'
 
So - where is the line drawn? What's the distinction? We are doing NOTHING different than them. Your arguments? Don't worry - I know what they are in advance because they're repetitious, old and still as worthless now as they were long ago, so let me address them:
 
They started it. Yeah, and two wrongs make a right, vengeance is better, kill 'em with guns not love, and who cares who gets hurt and stepped on in the middle, right? So what if we force governmental seizure and control of the innocent's homes and houses, institute curfews, put them under martial law, tick off the bad guys and encourage them to kill MORE of their own people, and in the meantime, slaughter a few innocent children ourselves - we're being 'saved,' right? Well, if you're still arguing this one - you win, because quite frankly, there is no way to counter an immature argument made by monkeys, by trying to use logic and reasoning.
 
They kill their own children! Yeah, and America doesn't? Every year thousands - THOUSANDS - of homeless children starve to death (a VERY painful way to die for those who don't know) because the rich get richer and the poor, poorer. We cut back education and put pressure on our children that has them shooting each other. We blast them with sex in media and intolerance in politics. We're SCREWING their financial futures and condemning them. DHS is kidnapping MILLIONS of innocent children every year and is responsible for the rape, murder and abuse of tens of thousands of them every year. Sure - we are SO justified in this. You have no argument.
 
They may come back! Yep - you're right. They may. They may send over terrorists who will get through the federally locked down airports and hijack another plane. They may kidnap people overseas and kill them. They may kill around 100 people by the end of the year. On the other hand, going to war means they WILL kill THOUSANDS of U.S. troops... children (for those of you who don't realize the majority of soldiers on the front line are still under 20 years of age - and to me, that's still someone's baby). They WILL fire missiles and bombs in their own streets in increased numbers. So, on this one, you win. Let's do it YOUR way and increase the death toll - much better.
 
Their people deserve better! YES! You are RIGHT! They deserve schools and education and secular freedoms and clean air and good paying jobs and a strong, people-driven Democracy. Let's have America fix it! Why? Because we're the SHINING example of these things. We have GREAT education... um... oops, sorry - scratch that - no we don't... and the first thing to be cut in this economy crisis wasn't politics or authorities that are sucking up the budget.. it was our children's school. But, we have secular freedom! Wait, oops, my bad - we kicked in the doors of a church and took their children because we didn't approve of what we 'believed' (although we were acting impetuously and hurt innocent lives because we were wrong) they were doing, and of course, secular freedom in schools and the workplace are now gone, and of course, the words 'In God We Trust,' have been removed (and are continuing to be) from most Government buildings. But hey - we have clean air! Um, sorry- my bad. Shouldn't have listed that one. We are paying excessively for 'trying' to have clean air and to fix what we have already done. We have jobs? Um, no... gosh... that's been a HUGE problem with outsourcing and what not. A people driven Democracy? Yeah - that explains the multitudes of bills passing that no longer represent the people (or require our votes or input) and AIG getting my tax money to fund THEIR rich people.
 
So - am I just being defeatist or what?? I'm just trying to make it hard on you, aren't I? There's GOT to be a solution! YES - there is one. Do I know it? No - I'm not the leader of this Country, so even if I had one - it isn't my place to say (although I would encourage those of you who may ever read this to offer up ideas!!). But, I do know one thing for sure. Marching in head first with guns shooting, bullets firing and asking questions later - is NOT the best policy. You see, sometimes, we get SO preoccupied with our OWN agendas, our OWN fears and our OWN frustrations, that we project those onto others. We are so busy trying to figure out an immediate solution, doing what we believed at the time we "could," that we NEVER stopped long enough to consider whether or not we "should."
 
Let's not be impetuous for once, okay? Let's not March on the road whose end we cannot see, blind-folded and unsure of what's on the other side of the hill. Because, for all we know, it could be a cliff and we could be lemmings (conspiracy aside again.. sheesh!) marching to our death. Let's NOT let our political leaders guide us in this path either. Quite frankly, people who have already cheated and stolen to get where they are and have little conscience in hurting others, aren't the best people to follow. And, people - STOP - following the media. PLEASE! If you want to do that, just end it now and save yourselves the painful, long, drawn out trip to self-destruction.
 
Let's use our hearts AND our brains. We don't want to die. We don't want people we know and love to die. And, as a last, little diddy - if somebody says: I HATE you and I'm going to kill you, do we run out, buy a gun and go hunt them down and kill them first? Well, unless we're just un-evolved monkey people who need to be shot anyway, the answer is: no. Sure, we may buy a gun. We may secure our own homes and boundaries. But, there's something else that we do (or at least, we're SUPPOSED to be doing) - we find out WHAT the problem is. We don't KILL the problem, we SOLVE it. (btw - killing it makes it worse - solving it makes it go away). We get input from others like the media who tell us it's all about religion, and we take it in and consider it - in part. We get input from those who are angry and usually don't act rationally. Then, we step back and go - hey - wait a sec - these people are hurt. They are scared. And, their fear and pain has driven them to anger. Because, there's a WHOLE nation over there that believes in the Quran, and THEY don't ALL believe in killing - not just Americans - but ANYONE. That tells me, something is wrong. So, let's start by asking the first question, shall we? Do realize, this means you will have to get off your high horse. You will have to want to be a nation that leads the world by GOOD examples starting at home. You will have to humble yourself and show tolerance, respect and love. And, the first question is:
 
Why are they angry at me and... What is it I HAVE done that needs to change?
 
Now, go get yourself a twix and chew on it for a while :)

How the media drives us with lies - pt1

Sure, I know what you're thinking - "Hey, I came here to learn about the truth of the government, not to hear conspiracy theories about the media!" But, what if.... I mean.... just - "what if" - a good portion of the government's lies and corruption include driving the media and leading us down the primrose path? Well, I mean - that's just insane - right? The media never lies. They never make mistakes. They're ALWAYS fair and balanced, aren't they?

Okay, fine, let's dispense with the idiotic mentality that we don't know that this is happening and get down to brass tacks, shall we? The commercial came on from the government sponsored 'protecting kids' campaign against 'online dangers.' Let me first repeat for you EXACTLY, ver batim, what the commercial states:

"You try to protect them. You want to keep them safe. You monitor what they watch. You set filters to control their content. But, are they really safe? ....... But, the truth is, you can't control your kids' exposure to sex, but you can control how they behave."

For those who MISSED it - let me point out the MAJOR areas of concern:

1. You - the parent, the role model, the guardian, the protector, the guidance counselor, the loved one, the creator, the provider - YOU - have NO control at all - YOU CAN NOT control YOUR CHILDS exposure to SEX because YOU can't stop the media - the ones broadcasting this commercial - from putting sex in front of them. YOU can't stop the abuse of the internet where idiots whose evolutionary basis for sex starts and stops at monkeys will post sex. YOU can't stop the kids at school from talking about it. YOU can't stop your own child's self-driven interest in it (aka their evolutionary development as you are NOT God).

2. But, you can control their behavior.

WHAT? Did I, um, miss something? Let me try this one on you: "Hey little Joey, I want you to say yes and no, sir and ma'am, thank you and please, never talk out of turn, always do your homework, do your chores, listen to every word I say, do as I say not as I do and behave...... But, what happens if they don't? Didn't the TV tell you that you could "control" their behavior? Oh, that's right - because the media is GOING to BLAST sex ALL OVER EVERY show they watch, every commercial they hear and do it so repeatedly that its effectiveness rivals hypnotherapy and subliminal messaging - you CAN'T control them. So, um, why... did the TV... tell me I could?

Because, in the face of Congressional laws coming out such as the "forced" community service, Congress wants to empower you to do as they say. You see - THEY CONTROL YOU. YOU - do not even control yourself. They DON'T need your vote. They DON'T need your approval. What they want - is your OBEDIENCE. But, you argue and say - "no, I'm NOT an idiot, I'm NOT your slave, this is a FREE country and I EXPECT the DEMOCRATIC process to allow me to put in my vote."

Now there's conflict. A resolution is needed. Congress says, "Well, we 'do' represent the desires of the people and we 'should' do what they want, but - naaaahhhhh - why do that? Let's scare them, weaken them, take away their power, screw with their heads - and when they're helpless - let's hit 'em below the belt!" You see, for those of you without children, let me 'splain.... no, wait, let me sum up (what movie? c'mon... you know which one 80's generation.. hahahaha):

We love our kids. We live in fear because we KNOW there are bad people out there, the police and court systems are inneffective and we don't want them hurt. Why? WE WENT THROUGH IT. The parents who are ignorant of what their kids are doing - didn't go through the hardships. WE KNOW. We do NOT want them to grow up. We want something DIFFERENT for them. We want a life of happiness and joy and one that doesn't involve strife and heartache. But, that's not always possible. We know that. And, we know that the media is just getting worse - and worse - and worse. I took my son to see a PG movie - and boy oh boy - what they get away with in PG movies is FAR more than I EVER wanted him to see. Learned my lesson.... And, what does the government do? They ENCOURAGE sex in media. The FCC throws a temper tantrum because Janet Jackson had a 'portion' of her COVERED boob pop out during the super bowl half-time because 'families' were watching - but.... it's okay to them that many of today's cartoons include kissing, sexual scenes, sexual jokes and the music videos that ALL the kids are watching include 'pimpin' the ho's' and the degraded value of idols such as Spears and Lohan.

Right, makes a TON of sense, right? I mean, why not let the SOURCES of the MAJORITY of children's media input include bare butts, skimpy outfits, pimped out sluts, superficial make-up jobs to attract sex, but SLAM down those FAMILY values because... oops... it happened at the Super Bowl in front of everyone? The answer's simple - mom and dad saw. They saw what the FCC was putting in front of their children. Anyone watching this season of South Park knows EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Only when mom and dad become aware does the FCC lay the SMACK down on anyone.

How the media drives us with lies - pt2

 (continued on from "How the media drives us with lies - pt. 1) -
 
Let's examine this in some detail, shall we? Quiznos Subs - their commercial "Dave, put it in me," as the guy looks down at his crotch and says, "Nuh-uh, I burn." Um, maybe in ANY other context, I might have laughed. Sure, I've got the 13 year old mentality that finds fart and sex jokes funny - I'm a guy - EVERY guy (even those who pretend otherwise) - has this mentality by nature. But, it wasn't. Why? For two reasons -
1. IT IS A SUBWAY SANDWHICH COMMERCIAL BROADCAST ON CARTOON NETWORK - THIS is in front of OUR children??? Dammit! My son's not so stupid to have caught the theme of it. They weren't even subtle about it! Sex and subway sandwhiches... gosh.... sex hasn't PERMEATED EVERY SINGLE FACET of hollywood, has it? But - the truth is - not even that was what REALLY peeved me -
2. The OVEN WAS A DUDE. They did NOT use a female voice for the sticking in of the 'torpedo,' sub, into its REAR entry. For anyone who missed it - go look it up yourself, 'cause I'm not gonna encourage it.
 
Is that to say that the subtelty of the absolutely GAY reference was wrong because it was a 'gay' reference? No. In fact, I'm not even sure that the company advertising for Quiznos thought it through. Hell - they STARTED with DEAD hamsters, modifying an existing internet song for their advertising career. What I am peeved about, is that THIS is the VERY issue I FIRST started with - the MEDIA - the people BROADCASTING THIS COMMERCIAL - are the SAME ONES - that told us we 'love our children, and because we do, if we WANT to be GOOD parents, we'll try to keep them away from sexual themes - but..... too bad, we can't.' And, why not? BECAUSE HERE IT IS - on the VERY channel my son watches, right in front of him. Not only is the sexual theme blatant, but the subtle theme is grotesquely exaggerated.
 
Now, in contrast, I absolutely LOVE the Burger King mini-burger commercial because the idea of a horde of hot, playboy-type chicks crowding around me, giving me full attention is actually kind of - cool. Of course, because I'm NOT an idiot and I know that no matter HOW many times I unwrap those mini burgers, women aren't going to flood around me - I try to find the 'subtle' hint - since SEX is the NON-subtle hint. And, survey says: Even overweight, fast-food eating, can't hook up with playboy models because they're not rich and sexy guys can get the rich chicks - they just gotta do what the commercial says. So - what does that do for kids? It LOWERS their standards. And, what's the problem? (and I quote) "You can't control your kids' exposure to sex." Well, not only that - but I am now faced with their lowered standards of what's beautiful, what the easy road promises (but in truth can never produce), and I, the parent - become the liar. SO HOW IS IT I CAN "CONTROL" their behavior?
 
Well - next comes the 'Osbournes' variety hour. No, that's not going to be the full representation of the degraded mentality and unevolved state of humanity, is it? Then what else? Another reality show that relies on the completely 'unrealistic' to survive? Bill Cosby's show in the 80's is considered one of the defining elements of the current troubled condition of the America Family based on media input:
 
The quick fix doesn't work.
 
Mom and dad fight, and in 30 minutes, are they back, kissing and everything is okay? Nope. Billy gets in trouble in school and in 30 minutes is it fixed? Nope. Hell - even today on shows like 'House' (albeit I LOVE that show and will otherwise speak no wrong of it): the people who lived in a way that screwed themselves up, at the end of 1 hour - everything's better. Can the kid's go out, get pregnant and do the same? Nope. Media REALLY took us away from the point of morality. And how, why? Here's something I LOVE - HULU!! I give these guys MAJOR props.
 
What do they offer? Cerebral, gelatinisizing shows.
Can you control them? Nahh... what are you gonna do, shut off your TV AND your computer?
What is their goal? An evil plot to destroy the world.
 
That's it. THAT'S IT! Right there - in black and white. It's not Quiznos or BK's openly sexual content that tries not to say the word, "sex," - it ACTUALLY says what they want. TV rots your brain. TV over the Internet rots your brain. And, what would be the eventual goal? World destruction. Simple. To the point. Heck, if our Government was THIS honest - we'd at least ALL be in a better place!! If we were this honest with ourselves - we'd be in a better place. "Hey, I'd say it's nice to see you today, Bill, but that would just be some empty form of flattery based on socially accepted norms, when in fact, I actually hate the way you treat your family, think your arrogant and stuck up and wish I never saw you."
 
But, will we do that? Nope. Why? FEAR. Yes, I actually sit up at night and wonder if Hulu IS really made up of aliens destroying us. Why? Because - that is WHAT they are broadcasting BECAUSE they KNOW we are SO far down the rabbit hole that we can no longer distinguish reality from fiction. We are the sheep that went to the other side, realized the grass WASN'T greener, and are now wandering around aimlessly. We are a greedy, selfish, "thing"-driven population. We DON'T want the truth. If it's given to us, we REJECT it. And, the point of ALL of this?
 
The government knows this. They feed us what they want us to hear. Obama received 100,000 questions to answer on-line? C'mon - let's NOT be stupid. They filtered out 100 MILLION to only 100,000. And, the majority were about legalizing pot? Yeah - SURE they were. The MAJORITY were questioning his budget policies. And, what did he answer?
 
Four. Four out of 100,000 (out of 100 million). Four questions based on "how will you help lower my tuition?" That is CRAP. Sorry for the foul language - but the truth is - his 'people' chose questions about 'children' to gain public support. It was a media campaign to get the public to like him because 'he cares about the kiddies.'
 
Yeah - but he can't stop their exposure to sex, right? Nope - but he can tell you that you can control their behavior, right? Sure - so long as Congress has a SLEW of pre-determined bills sitting on their desks that they will pass, one at a time, slowly, that will place GREATER control on us. And, they KNOW better than to start with the adults. While the majority of America's made up of the gooey-mush brained television watchers, there are enough people (aka Glenn Beck) who will talk about the truth and raise Cain. So, let's do what the Nazi's did - go after the kids. The kids are easy targets. FORCE parents to believe they're in control - create a RIFT between the kids and the parents - and you have a nation of children willing to turn in their OWN parents to the Nazi regime...
 
Sound stupid? Maybe... in fact... I HOPE and PRAY that you're right and I'm wrong. Because, folks, it's happened before - and it WILL happen again.
That which is, was once before, and that which will come, already has been. Ecclesiastes.

Poking fun at the media

Yes, I know this is off topic of governmental conspiracies, and I apologize for that - but I couldn't resist.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5rejhaYDOI
 
CNN Caption: Obama on Marijuana
 
and:
 
(where in the same speech Obama plans to) Smoke Out Terrorists

What does all this mean?
For a President who has so ADAMANTLY spoken against the legalization of marijuana, if left to himself and the media (and the fallacy of the American language), one *might* assert that Mr. Barrack Obama has a public relations issue that rivals George Bush Jr.
 
So.... the next time our so-called 'responsible' media people, (aka the liberals), rag consistently on Bush for his "mispronunciation" of the American language, they might want to consider Mr. Obama's "misuse" of the American language. Because, quite frankly, I'm not sure what's funnier - a President whose accent gave him trouble with the word 'nuclear,' or a President who is On Marijuana and smoking out terrorists.
 
Silly - yes. Worthwhile... maybe not. But, fun nonetheless!

The trouble with "special" advocacy groups

Is it wrong to advocate for change? Of course it's not! The whole point of free will is that when people are fully educated on a subject (mind you - I'm not talking about the majority of America, but those few who listen to ALL the issues and form their OWN opinions), they can contribute positively toward changes that will help us move toward a better tomorrow. This kind of change involves the whole of humanity, the majority of people - not the special interest groups. Why?
 
Special interest groups serve a 'small' portion of society. They represent a 'small,' portion of society, and their knowledge usually starts and stops there. They are motivated by emotion, not logic. They are out to make a change with the immediate need for self gratification. And, therein lies the trouble..... that which distinguishes us from primates is:
 
Delayed gratification.
 
You see, monkeys operate on primal instincts - aka - pure emotion. If they need food, they go eat. But, maybe, that means that if the monkey next to them has food, they'll just take it. This obviously leads to conflict and thus, we have a clear separator between homo sapien erectus and .... the monkey. The justice system tends to be a slow, poorly oiled and often corrupted machine - on BOTH sides of the fence. This often drives D.A.'s and law enforcement to resort to 'shoot first and ask questions later' style tactics that result in innocent people being injured, for no good or apparent reason. But, there are oft times small groups of people, like those at NoBAC.org, who feel they have been personally harmed through the tragic death or injury of a loved one or friend, and in their immediate need to 'rectify' that pain and undo it, they don't want to rely on the justice system, the law, or even God, they let their emotions get the better of them, and they turn outward, exercising their power through money, law enforcement and politics to push through their 'immediate' gratification.
 
Oh sure, you can go on the website and read the horror stories about how drunk drivers destroyed the lives of innocent men, women and children. And, it will most certainly pull on your heart strings (for those who might actually read this website - refer to my previous post on the D.A. using this same tactic in court rooms instead of facts and evidence). You will feel the same anger, hurt and frustration they do. You will MOST certainly be driven to the emotion of fear. And, folks - that is one of THE most POWERFUL emotions, standing side-by-side, with love.
 
You see, the website's not there because they care about the people they love. The website's there because they are afraid, and they want you to be afraid, too. It may look at first like it's filled with love through 'poetry' and the heart-wrenching tears of those who have lost, but the truth is this: if someone's dead, they're dead. We most certainly don't want to see anyone else suffer, but revenge, hatred, anger - is THAT what your loved one wanted you to go through? Did the person you care about want their death to drive you to fear and hatred? I know that if I lost my own child (Heaven forbid..as it would probably kill me), I would most certainly share many of those same emotions because I'm human. But, it's also my humanity that would say: I have to trust in God. Through God, He will affect the laws that will one day bring about an equality of justice. I will not HATE the person that wrongs my son or myself. I will defend him with my life. I will live for him - I will lay down my life for him. But, what justice would I do my son if I acted in anger and vengeance - ignorant of my human abilty to delay gratification? For, if I did this thing - I would be no different than the drunk driver who, under their immediate need for gratification drank without thought of the consequence. I would have turned into the very thing that killed him, and his death would mean nothing.
 
So, how does this relate to noBAC.org? It's this: they want the BAC contents to not be scaled based on level of intoxication, but have ANY reading count. ANY reading. Did you know, or were you aware, that more than 50% of you, right now, out there in America, will show up at least at a .01%? Your body naturally produces ethanol molecules, and the error rates in the intoxilyzer machines are so high, that the majority of states in the union won't even use them, and those that do, are constantly having to get rid of their 'older' series models and upgrade because of the constantly erroneous readings!! Did you know that if you have acid reflux/gerds, you WILL... not can... you WILL show up at an added several point increase? If you have hypoglycemia or diabetes, in states that require IID's (interlock ignition devices), you don't even have to use them because they know for a FACT that your disorder will cause an unusually high reading!!
 
What does this mean? Should we ignore drunk driving? No. There are FAR better ways to handle the matter (and I've posted it in previous articles - so I'll let you take the time to read). But, let's say a family slams into you, their son dies and you're given a BAC. Guess what? If you had gerd's, you know the fear, pain and emotions you're going through has more likely than not, set it off - and if noBAC were to get their way, you would be charged with drunk driving. If you're a painter, on your way home from work, and you get into a car accident - EVEN IF IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT - you will be charged with drunk driving (as the majority of all paint has high enough levels of ethanol molecules to cause a false reading). And, it's PROVEN, that if you smoke, or EAT certain types of BREAD - you'll get a reading on the BAC and blammo - straight to prison, don't pass go, don't collect $200, and have YOUR life, your CHILD'S life and YOUR family's life - destroyed.
 
But, hey - that's okay. You see, the people... rather monkeys... at noBAC are hungry. And, they're willing to deprive YOU to fulfill their immediate need. Maybe you WERE guilty - and you DID drink and drive - but what right has any group, who simply wants their banana, to hurt innocents in the quest to get to you? Do you see how logic is lost in this? Do you see how emotion has driven people down the wrong path? The punishments for drunk driving are already so severe, that if you haven't witnessed it yet, I can most assuredly give you horror stories that will wrench your stomach. But, it doesn't stop drunk driving, sad to say. The cops are profiting from it big time. And, what's worse, as I've posted in a previous article that the solution comes from taking the money AWAY from law enforcement and put towards actually FIXING the problem, there are a multitude of officers in Oregon, including one whom I happen to personally know is corrupt and a liar, supporting the noBAC move. This will most assuredly convince Congress... to see their proud and noble men and women of law enforcement supporting the bill.
 
But, we know why they are, don't we? What happens to their budget if suddenly, EVERY stop they make can turn into a DUII? Their cash levels go through the ROOF! What? You think they WANT people to stop drinking? HAHAHAHAHA - obviously - you haven't read the other articles on here... but I'll digress for now. No, they support this special rights group, along with the department of justice, because NONE of them care about justice. The monkeys at the bottom want their bananas, and so do the monkeys up high. The bottom monkeys are looking for punishment of everyone so they can feel justified. The monkeys on top are looking for gold so they can improve their bottom line.
 
What's the REAL danger? It's not just instant gratification - no - rather, it's a resort back to a legal system we fled away from. Do you know why "beyond a reasonable doubt" was REALLY put into our justice system? The Salem witch trials. go read on it. The most infamous case was a husband, who, in a fit of jealousy, accused his wife of being a witch. She begged and pleaded to him in the courtroom to tell the people the truth, and the courts relied on him ENTIRELY for the answer (of course, the original bible thumpers of this country forgetting that Christ said that where there are not 2 or 3 witnesses, let no person stand accused). He said she was, just to fulfill his anger. And, she died.
 
But, that's NOT the kicker - amazingly enough. Plenty of people died that way...
 
The husband, by helping with enforcing laws that supported 'instant gratification,' soon found himself at the accusing end of being a witch. And, after a long, drawn out court battle, was crushed to death, slowly, beneath a door, being covered by rocks, his bones slowly cracking, his muscles ripping, his pulse pounding and screaming in pain until he died. (Salem claims that to this day, the Sheriff's of the town are haunted by this man... hee hee).
 
So, what's the REAL problem? It's that the people at noBAC, just like the people at MADD, will soon find themselves at the other end of the very same law enforcement that was supporting their cause. Hmm.... did noBAC learn ANYTHING from MADD? Nope. Instead, they forget their humanity and act upon their primal - and they will suffer. But, not before the innocent masses before them suffer. If one small group, with a specialized interest in their OWN, personal agendas, not the well-being of the masses, can push through laws, then we end up with some very, serious trouble.
 
Anyone remember the group trying to throw out the pledge of allegiance from classrooms?
What about the row v wade group?
What about the anti Parental Alienation Awareness Day group?
What about capitalists who have drug this country into the dirt, pushing their own interests through?
People - what about the laws like the Adam Walsh Act or the Patriot Act that the government is now having to reconsider, having acted in haste, and having seen the repercussions of their actions?
 
It's not a mystery that this type of thing should not be allowed. But, it's incredibly horrifying, that it's happening today...

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 1)

(note: this is the first part in a series of articles examining the blatant abuse of power and authority by the Oregon, District Attorney’s Office)
Let us examine, shall we, the problems facing this so-called "State" of the Union, otherwise known as "Oregon," as it relates to the judicial and legal abuse by those whom we pay out of OUR tax monies. Let us examine a blatant LIE and ABUSE of power with proof, examples and facts:

State of Oregon
District Attorneys Mission Statement

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

(
excerpt from http://www.odaa.state.or.us/mission.htm)

Excerpts from The Constitution of The United States of America, as quoted by the District Attorney's office, to be the FIRST doctrine that they exist to uphold:

Preamble (note - thanks to Steve Mount at http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html for the following, complete list):

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

  • Rewritten into laymen's terms: The American people, not its legislature, government, elected officials, law enforcement or other such members, but the people who work and live in this Country, as legal citizens, represented by the protecting Umbrella of our elected officials, in order to keep everything equaland fair for ourselves and our children, keep a general peace amongst us, avoid falling into the unscrupulous practices of the European countries we fled from by regulating the control and authority of the government, (NOT, the people), UNDER [us] the people, do hereby decree that we DEMAND the following rights:

Pretty straight forward. Not much to say. It's written clearly, in a way, that while it does contain elements that dictate the rights of the people, only insomuch as it regulates our involvement in matters so as to avoid false witness and punishment, the majority of its meaning lies within regulation of the government and their activities.


Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure. (Ratified 12/15/1791.)
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
=========================================================================================
The search and seizure provisions of the Fourth Amendment are all about privacy. To honor this freedom, the Fourth Amendment protects against "unreasonable" searches and seizures by state or federal law enforcement authorities.

The flip side is that the Fourth Amendment does permit searches and seizures that are considered reasonable. In practice, this means that the police may override your privacy concerns and conduct a search of your home, barn, car, boat, office, personal or business documents, bank account records, trash barrel, or whatever, if:
  • the police have probable cause to believe they can find evidence that you committed a crime, and a judge issues a search warrant, or
  • the particular circumstances justify the search without a warrant first being issued.

The Fourth Amendment applies to a search only if a person has a "legitimate expectation of privacy" in the place or thing searched. If not, the Fourth Amendment offers no protection because there are, by definition, no privacy issues. This is not, by its base meaning, a terrible thing by any stretch of the imagination. Courts use a two-part test (fashioned by the U.S. Supreme Court) to determine whether, at the time of the search, a defendant had a legitimate expectation of privacy in the place or things searched:

Did the person actually expect some degree of privacy?
Is the person's expectation objectively reasonable -- that is, one that society is willing to recognize?

The examples to consider are: A bathroom is a private place, but the front seat of your car - is not? I'm not sure about you - but the reason I have LOCKS on my car door, is because I don't consider the contents of my car to be "Public," and I'm sure that the reason that people who "steal" the contents of my car, are guilty because it is theft. How are the authorities exempt from this? Worse - private security guards, like those in shopping malls, have NO privacy requirements on them at all. The contents of your UNDERWEAR are free for them to examine!! So - let's examine the law:

Protection of privacy against unreasonable search or seizures. Hmm... does the law say... protection ONLY from law enforcement? Nope. In fact, there is NO identification of whom may violate this right. In fact, the only identification of anyone, is only that those who violate this right MUST have done so under oath or affirmation in a Court of Law.

If, upon review, a court finds that an unreasonable search occurred, any evidence seized as a result of the search cannot be used as direct evidence against the defendant in a criminal prosecution, state or federal. This rule, established by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1961, has come to be known as the "exclusionary rule." To this day, many commentators criticize it on the ground that it unfairly "lets the criminal go free because the constable has erred." But the rule's supporters argue that excluding illegally seized evidence is necessary to deter police from conducting illegal searches. According to this deterrence argument, the police are NOT SUPPOSED TO conduct improper searches if the resulting evidence can't be used to convict the defendant.

But, do they?

In the Ninth Circuit Blog, are "developments" as they pertain to Search and Seizure law. Developments... developments... ??? Hmm... does that mean... changes? Alterations to the United States Constitution as it is written? Why, yes - it does. Presedence set in Court rooms overrides the Constitution. So - just how is the District Attorney's office upholding the standards set by the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION, when, in fact, they are ARGUING, to override it?

There are two main elements to consider here:

·         The first, is that the matter of unreasonable search and seizure was brought into question before the court. What does this mean?

o    This means - that law enforcement, DID, in fact, commit the act of an illegal search and seizure. They did NOT abide by the base standard set by the US Constitution. That law enforcement, in Oregon, has repeatedly, ABUSED their position, violating the rights of Oregon State's citizens, in their so-called, pursuit of justice.

·         The second is the matter of the District Attorney's Office. Did they, in fact, try to uphold the Constitution of the US?

o    The answer is simply, no. They used the excuse, that in their "mission," they are there to protect the safety of the public, and in doing so, they have argued for the right of an Officer of the law to have violated an individual's right to privacy.

Wait a second.... Doesn't that mean that they did NOT uphold the first doctrine that they have sworn to protect? Doesn't that mean that they have argued "probable cause," and "reasonable right to privacy and expectation," as it would fit THEIR perspective, not the perspective of the individual's CONSTITUTIONALLY protected right? Why... YES! YES it does.

So - the first question answered:

Does the Oregon District Attorney's Office uphold the standard, most base principal of the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution?

No, they do not. They try to circumvent it, abuse it, argue it, debate it and tear it apart, when private citizens choose to exercise their Constitutional rights. This is CLEARLY, a violation of the Constitution, and of the People, that in order to secure the blessing of Liberty, have fought for their privacy, and many times lost, because the agency - not elected - but paid for by and through our hard-earned wages, has chosen to ignore the first doctrine of their "mission."

(as a brief side-note, you may be asking: where are all my “examples,” or “proof?” If you’re asking this, then you haven’t followed the web links offered in here. I could list the thousands of cases for you, but that really wouldn’t be a beneficial use of space, now would it? Rather – I will reference the links. In fact – I won’t even waste the time – for the most part – citing anything specific, because that might be thought to suggest that the references are isolated. My purpose here is not to pick and choose isolated events, but, in the totality of circumstances, present to you, the reader, the overall picture. For, therein lies the fear. Therein lies the concern – that these events are NOT isolated, and these violations continue on, unchecked and unhindered and our freedoms, are quickly being lost). P.S. - sorry for grammar issues, no time for family to review it for me before posting....

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 2)

In this second installment of our examination into the practices of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office, we continue on from where we left off, looking only at specific Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. But, make no mistake, the violations I speak of go way beyond that. I am merely pointing out the largest majority of violations of our rights, by the D.A.’s office – specifically – in contradiction to their claims.

State of Oregon
District Attorneys Mission Statement

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

(
excerpt from http://www.odaa.state.or.us/mission.htm)


Excerpts from The Constitution of The United States of America, as quoted by the District Attorney's office, to be the FIRST doctrine that they exist to uphold:

(note - thanks to Steve Mount at http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html for the Constitutional references):

Amendment 5 - Trial and Punishment, Compensation for Takings. (Ratified 12/15/1791.)

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Let us examine the role of a Grand Jury:

The first instance of a grand jury can be traced back to the Assize of Clarendon, an 1166 act of Henry II of England. In fact, Henry's chief contribution to the development of the English monarchy was to increase the jurisdiction of the royal courts at the expense of the feudal courts. Itinerant justices on regular circuits were sent out once each year to enforce the "King's Peace." To make this system of royal criminal justice more effective, Henry employed the method of inquest used by William the Conqueror in the Domesday Book. In each shire a body of important men were sworn (jure) to report to the sheriff all crimes committed since the last session of the circuit court. Thus originated the modern grand jury that presents information for an indictment. The grand jury was later recognized by King John in the Magna Carta in 1215 on demand of the nobility. (are we recalling the first post, in which I clearly explained that part of the Constitution’s purpose was to no longer follow European traditions?)

Early in U.S. history, the grand jury served to screen out incompetent or malicious prosecutions. The advent of official public prosecutors in the later decades of the 19th century largely displaced private prosecutions, but also led to their capturing grand juries and using them in ways for which they were not originally intended. But, is the practice of a Grand Jury today, still at as much risk for corruption as they were back then? Grand juries are today virtually unknown outside the United States. England abandoned grand juries in 1933 and instead uses a committal procedure, as do all Australian jurisdictions. New Zealand abolished them in 1961 and Canada in the 1970’s.

In fact, only HALF of the States in our Union use Grand Juries. Yes – HALF. What does that mean? That means, that the U.S. is NOT using the fair and equal standard across the Country, meant to Form a MORE PERFECT UNION, as the justice system has slowly come to realize the corrupt and unconstitutional nature of grand juries. – Slowly – As it is, the “other” half of the U.S. relies upon preliminary hearings in which Judges are allowed to be presented with ALL of the evidence, from BOTH sides – to ensure fairness and accuracy of the issues. Where Grand Juries do exist, such as it is in Oregon – the one sided argument – from Law enforcement AND the DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S office (the ever-scrupulous bastions of fairness and hope.. right?), before dragging you into Court – and sometimes – JAILING you – without your even knowing that ANYTHING was going on!!

A grand jury is meant to be part of the system of checks and balances, preventing a case from going to trial on a prosecutor's bare word. A prosecutor must convince the grand jury, as an impartial panel of ordinary citizens that there exists reasonable suspicion, probable cause, or a prima facie case that a crime has been committed. The grand jury can compel witnesses to testify before them. Unlike the trial itself, the grand jury's proceedings are secret; the defendant and his or her counsel are generally not present for other witnesses' testimony. (a special thanks to Wikipedia, for this information – and references YOU can follow up on to find more arguments defining the unconstituionality of the Grand Jury process).

I won’t even waste the time in this argument to discuss the Double Jeopardy clause, except to say this: the TENS OF THOUSANDS of arguments, in our Judicial system against this practice, is reminiscent of what I said in regards to the Fourth Amendment violations by the District Attorneys- they are NOT upholding the principals of the Constitution as they claim – but are fighting them to their own benefit (see Findlaw for even more, detailed explanations).

''It is now the settled doctrine of this Court that the Due Process Clause embodies a system of rights based on moral principles so deeply imbedded in the traditions and feelings of our people as to be deemed fundamental to a civilized society as conceived by our whole history. Due Process is that which comports with the deepest notions of what is fair and right and just.'' (Justice Frankfurter)

Standing by itself, the phrase ''due process'' would seem to refer solely and simply to procedure, to process in court, and therefore to be so limited that ''due process of law'' would be what the legislative branch enacted it to be. But that is not the interpretation which has been placed on the term. ''It is manifest that it was not left to the legislative power to enact any process which might be devised. The article is a restraint on the legislative as well as on the executive and judicial powers of the government, and cannot be so construed as to leave congress free to make any process 'due process of law' by its mere will.'' (Lessee v. Hoboken) Let us begin by examining the more recent, “Adam Wash Act.”

On December 7, 2006, in U.S. v. Crowell, Magistrate Judge Leslie G. Foschio held that the Adam Walsh Act's requirement that specific pretrial release conditions be imposed on all defendants accused of certain crimes violates the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause, the Eighth Amendment's Excessive Bail Clause, and separation of powers. So, the question presents itself – is the District Attorney’s (and Judge’s) right to impose “pretrial” conditions on an individual’s release, a direct violation of the Constitution? Here’s where the Grand Jury indictments come in – for no person shall be deprived of life OR liberty, without the due process of law. But, in a grand jury indictment, for the few states that still choose to against the WORLD WIDE accepted standard and use this unconstitutional and outdated method, that IS due process. Yes – you are guilty. I define that by: the imposing of legal restrictions, as would be imposed on an individual found guilty of a crime in a court of law. You are guilty, because they impose limitations on you: curfews; use of the internet; the ability to drive; to go to a public bar; to go into certain locations; to possess legal and lawful items; and so on. You are guilty, and these impositions will continue to be placed upon you until such time as you can be proven innocent. Otherwise, if you are found guilty, then these impositions are increased and you are PUNISHED TWICE.

That’s…. real…. Constitutional.. isn’t it?

Finally comes the matter of personal property being taken for public use. Let me put this to you in the most clear and simple matter possible: search and seizure. The taking of your belongings, for examination by law enforcement, use as evidence in grand jury indictments (and court hearings), is a direct counterpart to the Fourth Amendment’s protection of privacy. Perhaps some of you might be thinking: “Well, this means they can’t take your T.V. to watch it for themselves.” Why? That would deprive you of the item’s: 1) ownership, 2) use, 3) freedom of liberty and 4) your Constitutional rights as they apply here.

But, what’s the difference? Whether the State’s taking your belongings to “build a case,” in which they are committing all four infringements listed in the previous paragraph, or to “use it for their own, personal reasons,” – it’s the same thing! Your items are in their possession for their use. Your items will now “profit” them. Not only will YOUR possessions be used against you – but they will be used for THEIR profit. If we were talking something as simple as unlawfully downloaded music, which you cannot legally possess, then, that would be something that could possibly be debated. But, if that music was on your computer, where you also kept your personal files, your letters, your email, your taxes and whatnot – then they are DIRECTLY violating the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution by keeping those items – WITHOUT just compensation.

Let me give you an example: Your computer’s taken under the false pretense of an accusation. But, in Oregon, false pretenses count as probable cause in the eyes of the law (somehow – that too – is believed to be “Constitutional??”). Your tax records are on there and you have them nowhere else. The IRS or Dept. of Revenue come knocking at your door, claiming you made a mistake in your tax filings seven years ago and owe them $50,000.00. The only proof you have is on your computer – but the State, without just compensation (which would mean equal and fair – not of value – of content – clearly stating that ALL of your information could be duplicated and returned to you immediately so you were NOT deprived of your belongings without said compensation), is preventing you from presenting your case. Now, the IRS/DOR, garnish your wages. You lose your home, your vehicle, can’t afford your meds and lose your health.

THIS IS EXACTLY why the Fifth Amendment exists. To overcome such dangerous situations that not only infringe upon your liberty – but YOUR LIFE!! However, the Oregon District Attorney’s Office, even in light of precedence set by the State Courts and multiple other States, will hold onto your valuables and abuse their power and privileges over you. Why? If you simply plead guilty or no contest -  your items are returned. You take the penalty, pay the fines (probably only around $3,000 or so – just losing your car, not your home or health), they get PAID for doing this to you, and the Constitution – well – it means NOTHING.

Does the Oregon D.A.’s office uphold the Constitution, as per their mission statement, the first Doctrine, as it pertains to the Fifth Amendment?

No. They argue and fight and spend OUR taxpayer dollars, to circumvent the Fifth Amendment. Once again – we have DIRECT EVIDENCE, that their office is lying, violating our Constitutional rights, and doing so without any manner of checks or balances. Of course, Oregon believes in Grand Juries – the “once upon a time” check and balance to prosecutions, and, in that corruption, has more prosecutions, per capita, than almost EVERY other State in the Union, justifying the taking of children and offering them up to rape, death and abuse; the imprisoning of innocent people, even before trial; and the continued abuse of power that remains unchecked.

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 3)

In this third installment of our examination into the practices of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office, we continue on from where we left off, looking only at specific Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. But, make no mistake, the violations I speak of go way beyond that. I am merely pointing out the largest majority of violations of our rights, by the D.A.’s office – specifically – in contradiction to their claims.

State of Oregon
District Attorneys Mission Statement

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

(
excerpt from http://www.odaa.state.or.us/mission.htm)


Excerpts from The Constitution of The United States of America, as quoted by the District Attorney's office, to be the FIRST doctrine that they exist to uphold:

(note - thanks to Steve Mount at http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html for the Constitutional references):

Amendment 6 - Right to Speedy Trial, Confrontation of Witnesses. (Ratified 12/15/1791.)

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.

First, let me point out the emphasis I maid above on: accused. That means: not guilty of, not yet determined to be guilty of, and only by mere “accusation,” has been brought forth for trial (refer to 5th Amendment post on pretrial punishments). But, Congress HAS instituted laws that directly and blatantly violate the premises upon which the Sixth Amendment rests:

On January 28, 2008, in U.S. v. Winslow, Judge Smith, D. Alaska, found that the government's conditions for the defense's review of the computer hard-drive seized in the case violated the defendant's due process, fair trial and Sixth Amendment rights. As a result, the court ordered the government to provide the defense attorney with a copy of the hard drive, under specified conditions. Is this isolated? No. And, I’ve been trying to avoid ‘specifics,’ to avoid the unnecessary argument as to whether these violations are limited. The fact is, that Oregon has been putting more people in prison, for a violation of the Adam Walsh Act and associated laws, without a trial or hearing, because the Defense Attorneys, even those who are paid, are recommending that their clients automatically say “no contest,” because the Attorneys KNOW, they cannot adequately provide for their client’s defense. You can go to the State of Oregon’s, Public Defender website and read the numerous articles on this FACT, for yourself.

What’s really at the heart of the matter here though, is the violation of the Constitutional Right to confront the witnesses and the evidence. The Oregon D.A.’s office PREVENTS any “accused” individual from confronting their offender, in a court room, for many types of crimes, including sex offense. You cannot force the Courts to have to listen to the possibility that someone is lying, or that the ACCUSORS DON’T EVEN EXIST!! Yes – you cannot even prove that they are NOT REAL!! This has given way to the Oregon D.A.’s office blatantly abusing their power by trying cases solely upon “Circumstantial Evidence.”

In such cases where ONLY circumstantial evidence exists, the idea is to convince the trier of fact (a Judge or Jury), that you are probably MORE guilty, than not. And, in cases of internet pornography, murder, theft, and other such cases, the D.A. will present the so-called “evidence” to the trier of fact to help establish their disgust or anger against you. Do you need to see a picture of a nude child to determine that they are a nude child? Do you need to see the picture of a dead body to determine the individual is actually dead? Isn’t that what evidentiary hearings are for? To prove whether or not the evidence is real?

Here’s the catch. The Sixth Amendment does NOT say you are entitled to ‘competent’ or ‘effective’ counsel. It does not guarantee you protection against attorney’s who just want to take the money and run. Individual States are supposed to do that. And, where the D.A.’s office claims that part of its “mission,” is to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity, the question is whether or not, their trying a case against you where you are not provided with effective or adequate counsel, is within the boundaries of “skill, honor and integrity?” I would argue that clearly, it’s not.

But, how do you even get a “fair” trial in front of a so-called, “jury of your peers?” The mere definition is an oxymoron. A Jury of my peers, that represents the peoples’ choice in this matter, is not 13 people sitting on a witness stand. It’s half a million people, it’s the entire nation. In fact, it goes so far as to be: NONE of the above. The truth is, that Jury, without any factual evidence such as “Witnesses to the crime,” are only being presented with evidence. And, in many cases, it is NOT EVEN evidence that a crime occurred! Ah, there lies the rub that makes calamity of so long life….

In Internet crimes, where the content of an individual’s computer contains contraband, the State and Federal laws BOTH, clearly state, that the crime is not in the mere possession of the evidence, in a digital format (as such would violate an individual’s free right to legally copy music they own and would most CERTAINLY violate the 4th Amendment right to be secure in your personal and private belongings), but in the knowing downloading, accessing, storing and use (and distribution in certain instances) of that material. If I show you a hard disk with music on it that I believe the defendant had accessed off the Internet, I did not show you their ‘knowing’ download, just my opinion that it “more likely than not, beyond a ‘reasonable,’ doubt, occurred.” But, what is the reasonable doubt? Who determines what’s reasonable? A Jury of 13 people that don’t know me, anything about my values and morals, anything about my history or life or even what actually happened at the time this supposed ‘download’ occurred? Maybe a jury of technically incompetent individuals who don’t know enough to understand the whole entire “hacking/identity theft” industry? And, that’s where the D.A. comes in…

You see, the D.A. is permitted to be involved in the jury selection process. Why? Is that to ensure fairness to you? Of course not, they want to ensure there’s no bias against them, right? What bias is there – when YOU are the accused, YOU are the one being falsely accused of committing terrible and horrific acts against the welfare of those 13 people judging you. The only purpose the D.A. has, and you can read this on the NATIONAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S WEBSITE, under the area of articles, where they list a specific article pertaining to the Jury Selection Process in digital crimes. It specifically states that: “Most jurors have an 8th grade intellect…” it goes on to say that it is imperative that the D.A. see to it that technically savvy individuals NOT be chosen for the jury, because they could identify the holes in the D.A.’s case, where it’s actually impossible to prove an individual was in front of their computer. It also states that: Completely unsavvy people should not be selected either, because their lack of computer knowledge will make it too difficult for you to explain to them that someone is guilty when you can’t actually prove that guilt. Instead, an individual of bare-minimum computer skills must be chosen, as they will be able to only understand that computers contain data, good or bad, but not understand the principals of how you actually “identify WHO” was on the computer and “who” committed the crime.

Okay – unconstitutional?

"....by an impartial jury...."

How much MORE UNCONSTITUTIONAL would you like to make this? What about the TV and media CONSTANTLY blasting horror stories about these types of crimes, creating an ENTIRE SOCIETY that is driven to be pre-determinately against the Defendant? If this is not an absolute violation by the D.A.’s office, ESPECIALLY in Oregon, I don’t know what is:

"….Pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity,"

How much MORE against the D.A.’s so-called, “mission,” could this be? In fact – it gets worse. The State of Oregon has had it argued, with the help of the D.A.’s office, to reduce payment for Defense counsel and reduce the amount of financial aid provided by the Oregon Public Defender’s Financial Assistance office, making it virtually impossible for the Defense to adequately mount a case!! Folks – you can go online and read all this for yourself. I, sadly, cannot. As I write this, I do so with a pen and paper, using notes provided for me by my brother, because of some of the very issues that exist in this one, exact violation of the Constitution, and amongst others.

How many more INNOCENT people will have to be released from prison before someone realizes, that the inability to hold the D.A.’s office accountable to their “mission” statement, is perpetuating the violation of our rights?

Has the D.A. upheld the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution?

No, they haven’t. They have abused their authority to help select bias juries, to falsely and wrongly influence them, in the MIDDLE OF A TRIAL, without punishment for doing so, to prevent the Defense from proving his innocence – and for what? The “pursuit of justice?” When is it a pursuit of “justice,” when you blockade the “accused,” from proving their innocence? When is it a “pursuit of justice,” when you present so-called ‘evidence,’ to a legally unknowledgeable jury, falsely making them ‘believe,’ it’s evidence of a crime? When is it justice when you work to make the jury ‘hate’ the defendant, rather than rely upon facts?

When is it the pursuit of justice with SKILL, HONOR and INTEGRITY, when you try people based on the possibility they committed the crime, not the facts? Is this protecting us? Did this actually protect the crime victims’ rights (that is – going after the wrong person and possibly letting the guilty one free to do it again)? Is this supporting the Constitution of the United States, as claimed by the Oregon’s D.A. office?

The corruption of the Oregon District Attorney’s Office (pt 4)

 

Folks, in the past three articles, I have only presented a “small,” portion of the big picture. I could get into the State laws and Constitutions constantly being violated by the District Attorney’s office, but the truth is, the Constitution is the first and foremost Doctrine to be upheld, with authority over all the others. And, if I were to cover ALL of the areas that the Oregon D.A. violates the Constitution – there wouldn’t be enough time in a year left over to do anything else!! Sure, across this entire nation there are arguments every day about how the Constitution is being cheated. There’s corruption in every State of the Union and every District Attorney’s office. But, I came before today, to only present the facts as they are about this State’s D.A.’s office. I have, for the most part, presented fairly generic issues with specific internet links you can go and find yourself, on topics that would also be as easy for you to find yourselves. The truth is, you have to educate yourself. You have to verify sources of information. You have to know the truth. Why? Ignorance is not bliss – it’s the very essence of shock value that the media uses to hit you in the face with daily. It’s the very force that drives the corruption in this Country.

The question was – or the article as it was addressed – is that the Oregon District Attorney’s Office is engaging in unconstitutional, rights-violating acts that threaten the integrity of this Country. It threatens us when, the people who are supposed to pursue justice, cannot do so based on the Constitution. Otherwise, our Constitution, means nothing. It threatens us when the people who chase down the bad guys, have to lie and cheat to get the bad guys, for two reasons: First, if our justice system has to rely on lying and cheating now, what’s to stop them from continuing in that practice? Second, if the D.A. continues to pursue the innocent, the guilty ones – the REAL bad guys – will continue to walk the streets, threatening the peace, that we have so eagerly sought to ensure through the Constitution:

….establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare…

I worry for those future generations, whose general well-being our Constitution also sought to ensure, when it is already as corrupt as it is now.

The arguments are this: If the D.A. has to do what they have to do, right or wrong, to get the bad guy, should we stop them? Yes, yes we should. The O.J. Simpson case, only one of MILLIONS like it, involved the police, the forensics experts and the District Attorney (the “prosecutor”), lying to incriminate the man. Did he do it? I don’t know. There weren’t ANY witnesses to the crime. What did O.J. have to do to preserve his innocence? He had to spend millions and millions of dollars to afford an attorney.

And, there’s the REAL catch. The rest of us, the ones without money, cannot afford to spend anything. We are given counsel that does not have the time or the resources to assist us, and we are left with the D.A. further limiting our ability to prove our innocence by forcing the evidence to be hidden away, helping to chose a bias jury, and presenting false evidence to help ‘presume,’ our guilt.

I’m not saying that the guilty should go free. I’m asking you to look around. Is crime being contained? Are people actually avoiding crimes? Nope. In fact, as I wrote in a prior article, crime is even more rampant than it is today, with a larger police force and larger judicial group, than it was only 10 years ago!! And, thus, my argument comes full circle:

The D.A.’s, for such a long time, have been putting the innocent behind bars, wasting our taxpayer money to pursue issues that are not theirs to pursue, chasing ghosts and demons that the people left on the streets include the ones who were never chased down. Out Federal and State Constitutions have been violated. Our personal rights have been violated. No one can hold the D.A.’s office accountable for these matters. Most Courtrooms no longer bother with it, leaving the matter for appeal. What’s worse, is in States like Oregon, where the D.A. can be proven, repeatedly, time and time again, to violate their own mission statement and act against the public’s well-being, the Courts are required to find in favor of State’s evidence, where equal evidence exists. That means – they have to err on the side of those who have proven their CONSISTENT violation of the Constitution and law!!??? Is this REALLY what the justice system is all about?

No money to fight your case – you’re screwed. The jails are overwhelmed. The prisons are overwhelmed. The State’s budget for law enforcement and justice just keeps going up and up – exceeding the BILLIONS range, for a state with only 3 million people!!?? So, who do you go to? Who do you turn to? Occasionally, the press will help, but only AFTER you’ve been falsely thrown in jail or prison. Sometimes, the innocence rights groups will step in (except in Oregon where the Innocence project was shut down…..), but also, usually only AFTER the fact. And – even worse than this – WE PAY FOR IT. We put out our hard-earned cash, for the Government to do what? Permit a corrupted District Attorney’s office, state-wide, to hurt us? What about putting the money into the Defense budget, and requiring the D.A.’s office to take a financial hit and begin working under the same pretense the defense attorneys do – because they think it’s the right thing to do!

You think $2k for a criminal case is sufficient? Most “paid” attorneys get around $25+, depending. You think $500 bucks for a misdemeanor is a sure-fire way to guarantee a lawyer’s avid interest in pursuing that case? Try looking through the case files – reading the whole thing – and speaking with the attorneys; I think you’ll be sick and disgusted. What about the $55k starting salary of the prosecutors, and the bonuses they get for trying a certain number of cases and winning? Did I agree to spend my money on that? Most certainly not. In fact, I expected those people, to be higher paid, because they WERE ensuring justice. But, as you can see by these articles, they are doing the opposite. They are in their positions for one reason – to line their pockets. Our Justice System has transformed into a “legal” system, whereby lady justice’s scales tip in favor of those with the most gold. And, he who has the gold – makes the rules. It’s too bad, that it happens to be the grotesquely corrupt.

Perhaps, this wouldn’t be SUCH an issue, if the D.A. didn’t openly state:

The mission of the Oregon District Attorney is to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution and laws of the State of Oregon, to preserve the safety of the public, to protect the rights of crime victims and to pursue justice for all citizens with skill, honor and integrity.

That above statement could not be farther from the truth. As the D.A. represents the corrupted DHS/CPS, they help contribute to the rapes, beatings, deaths and abuse of thousands of children every year. As the D.A. does so, they also force more plea bargains, for “no contest,” cases daily, filling up jails and prisons, working to boost the State’s income through fines and penalties, claiming “justice” for their forcing people to give in rather than face a lifetime in prison because the “accused,” doesn’t get cart blanche to lie like the D.A. does and get away with it.

Will it change?

There’s ALWAYS hope…. I just pray that our Governor, Legislatures, Judges and others see this and DEMAND the change now - not after it's too late for those already suffering...

Justice - Out of Bounds

The whistle blows and the ref calls the game to a halt. Justice has boundaries. Justice is about stopping those who break the law. Justice is about bringing those who break the law, to a point of responsibility for their actions. But, when is the law, too much? When is the law, wrong? When does the law exceed its authority or "community" caretaking function? The Bernie Madoff investment "scam" is a perfect example of this.
 
Breaking and entering is an offense punishable by the law, because it involves endangering a large portion of the people. Someone who breaks into a home or takes items out of it, faces punishment by the justice system because they are bringing fear to the masses and can strike anyone, anywhere and at anytime. But, in the Madoff case, the investors HANDED him their money. They WANTED to take the "RISK" of getting rich, quickly. So - first off -
 
A fool and his money are soon parted.
 
I walk up to you and say, "Hey, you don't really know me, my background, or anything about me, but - give me $10,000 and I'll turn it into a million in a year or two." Did you hand me your money yet? No? Why not? Aren't you absolutely convinced that a 10:1 odds ratio is awesome? How can you question that kind of return - don't you just outright 'trust' me with your life savings because I seem to be a pretty, okay guy? Okay - setting aside the blatantly obvious, the next thing to look at is the keyword: "Risk." Aren't investments, by their sheer nature, a "risk?" Isn't the phrase: There is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch? When IBM went under many, many, moons ago, did their investors get to put everyone in the Corporation in jail? Did they get to imprison the stoke brokers that recommended the investment? The answer is: No. Not even on a high-risk investment (as computers were a high-risk opportunity back then), did those who lost hundreds of millions, get to put anyone in jail.
 
So, using this rationale, by what right does the law get to jail Madoff? This should have been a civil case, settled as a lawsuit - pure and simple. But, I truly blame the investors. Rather than taking this to the Courts for a lawsuit (where they probably would have lost anyway when the Judge heard Madoff's sales pitch and found out the investors were trying to get in on 'get-rich-quick schemes), they ran to the authorities and cried 'foul play.' The authorities, too interested in their own profits, their own benefits, and themselves, tried Madoff and threw him in jail, where he'll get 3 square meals a day, shelter and the other stuff (make no mistake - jail - prison - SUCK), and are planning on seizing his assets. Will the investors ever see these assets? HAHAHAHAHA - yeah right. When pigs fly. When has the government, let alone the IRS, ever been effecient, on top of things or very quick to give anything back to the people?
 
Bernie Madoff did not steal. He was given money. He may not have upheld a contractual obligation, but that is NOT theft. Unfortunately, as much as many people would like to pretend that in their self-righteousness, they can abuse the law that way whenever they want - they can't; or at least, they shouldn't. Now the investors get nothing back. If I was an investor - I'd be ROYALLY upset! I would be suing the Federal government and the other investors for making it almost impossible (or at least, rather difficult) to reclaim my monies in a lawsuit. I would have stood up in the beginning, told Uncle Sam to get the heck out of my way and gone after him on my own!! The amount a lawyer could have made from a class action would have been so outrageously high - there aren't ANY lawyers who wouldn't have jumped on this one!!
 
So, did the law overstep it's boundaries? I say, yes. I say, that in many, many instances, the law oversteps its boundaries. But, I love when things like the Madoff case present themselves, so I can provide you facts and truth to back these claims up!! Don't be fooled - don't think this shouldn't matter to you! It DOES. What's to stop a mortgage company that claims you missed your last payment, from putting you in jail? Hey - it's THEIR property! You're in possession of it, not them. They're not getting the return on their investment. Forget foreclosure; eviction or repossession - now it's about putting you in jail!! The problem is, when the ref doesn't call a time-out - we ALL lose. And, right now, no time out is being called, Congress is trying to circumvent fixing their mistakes with AIG and look good (although - illogically so), by creating special interest taxation that nowhere NEAR fixes the problem, and you can't see how this could come back on you?
 
Good luck then.....

Who watches the watchmen?

No - not the movie. If you came for that - go home. I'm talking about one of the government's REAL watchmen... one of their most dangerous watchment.... The department of human services - child protective services.

Oh.. but they save us... they help all the poor, abused children.

Sure they do. Kind of like bleach will clean your intenstinal track of any impurities (NOTE - DISCLAIMER - DON'T DRINK BLEACH OR YOU'RE A FRAKING IDIOT WHO NEEDED TO BE WORKED OUT OF THE BREEDING CHAIN ANYWAY BECAUSE IT WILL KILL YOU - This is a METAPHOR - for those of you too STUPID - to know the difference). Sure... bleach cleans out every last poison, toxin and impurity your body has. This includes most of your intestines, your stomach and heck, it will even get rid of YOU! Why? Because it WILL kill you. Not "May" or "Could" - it "Will."

Just like DHS/CPS WILL happen to you. Don't think that you're going to be free much longer. (and by much,  I don't mean minutes... just years... duhh!). You see, they are supposedly the "watchmen," who watch over our children, our future and keep us safe. But, when one agency has the authority of the attorney general, the district attorney, default laws that presume guilt and enforce punishment, the authority to order and control the police, and violate every facet of the Constitution - this begs the question - who watches the watchmen? Perhaps, it's the little known, "Office of the Ombudsman?' Yeah - try putting it to the test to see what happens. But, I've decided in this post, rather than waste my time writing endlessly to a mindless crowd (since no one reads.. heee heeee).... I'll let you see it for yourself:
http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrobase/Issue/story?oid=oid:666600   http://www.dhs.state.or.us/caf/safety_model/faq/comp_safety_assessment.html (see the titled Question:   Can a new case be opened when the only identified safety threat is #16?) http://educate-yourself.org/cn/susandetlefsenupdatesonemilylake20agu05.shtml
 
Would you like to see the full list? It would take approximately 2 days to read all the names - of just the websites validting the ever-growing concern!!
 
And, my case is even worse, because no one will help me. No one will listen, because I'm not a woman, and the suffering hasn't grown severe enough yet to warrant the attention. Media's not interested in the simplified concept of preventative care. Special interest groups don't care about stopping the abuse before it begins - and so - the cycle continues. We are still being crushed and hurt and abused by the watchmen, because no one is watching, only complaining after the fact.
 
I love you my son - always and forever, eternity and beyond - no matter what they do to me - I will always be in your heart!

Why CAN'T the economy be fixed? (and a solution!)

The answer starts at the bottom end - with the people. No - not the work ethics or morality (although, that plays a HUGE part in it - and I 100% blame.. TOTALLY hold accountable, the media for setting the trends, status symbols and selfish standards that govern our world today). What governs our lives at the bottom end, through governmental injection into our daily lives, controlled by Capitalist demands on Democracy -
 
Equifax, Transunion, Experian, Check Systems, CLUE, et. al.
 
Ooohh... I'm just a person with bad credit who's complaining, right? No need for you to read on, right? So go - go away. Stop reading - now! I mean it! You'll just be poisoned by some whiner like me, won't you? What's that... you are at least 'interested' in what I have to say? Could that have something to do with the fact that the totalitarian authority of agencies like the ones I listed above, concern you, too? Even, if only, on an unconscious level? The truth is - that's why, you're still reading. Not because you're whining about a credit score (heck, maybe you're one of the lucky few with a HUGELY AWESOME credit score); but because you have come to understand that certain agencies, supposedly 'not' in governmental control, have had laws passed, without the vote of the people, allowing these agencies to govern our everyday lives. How is that possible? How can it be that private enterprise was allowed to take hold of our lives? These reports are used to not only control our eligibility for obtaining loans, but rental contracts, employment opportunities, car insurance, military eligibility, legal representation and a myriad of other, daily elements of our lives are CONTROLLED, by what's on the reports kept by these agencies.
 
Worse - it's already a well known and somehow, ACCEPTED, fact of life that the majority of these agencies have WRONG information, and it costs us, dearly! It's already an ACCEPTED fact, that we live in such FEAR of identity theft, and how it will affect our CREDIT scores, that a whole new industry, profitting from us and taking our hard earned money, is designed to keep bad guys from getting bad things on our credit reports. But wait.... here's the REAL KICK IN THE BUTTOCKS: It's the crediting companies, that have given good people such BAD scores that they can't qualify for loans, or to shop or to live... that has FORCED the identity theft industry!!!!!
 
Hold on!!??? Wait a second? Let me get this straight.... the CAR MECHANIC, supposedly, who was given the total control over OUR vehicle, at OUR cost, has intentionally yanked out the spark plugs so the car won't work, so that he can charge US MORE MONEY, to fix the car?
 
Yup, that's what it is. Try complaining.. go ahead. Did it work? Haven't tried yet... I'll wait. Any luck? Nope. Don't worry - I already knew you wouldn't get anywhere. You see, the authority by which these agencies have been given control, is through Capitalists urging Congress to forcibly pass bills, without our being aware these bills were even on the table, and then allowing the Capitalists to run wild with it. ....... This has been another fine example of Democracy in its most corrupted and polluted form... brought to you by... your Political representatives, who YOU voted in and trusted... living to make your life (well.. actually THEIRS'), a better place.
 
But, it doesn't stop there. The 'credit' scoring method (which I won't try to explain in here since it's so dang convoluted, corrupted and based, primarily, upon the rich vs. the wealthy.. but I digress.. go look it up for yourselves), not only governs our loans, it tells landlords who is 'rent' worthy and who is a 'risk.' It tells mortgage lenders who to trust and not trust. No - not YOU, not YOUR character, YOUR personality, YOUR dedication to having a better life - YOUR money is what defines you.  And, not by how much you have.. make no mistake.. by how much you spend, how much interest you're willing to incur, how quickly/well you pay it back, and thusly - how much money THEY will make off of you. Yes... that is the ACTUAL definition of revolving credit (in my humble opinion only). If you have TONS of credit.. you're a risk 'cause you might go out and spend it and incur more debt than you can pay. If you have NO credit, you're a risk because nobody knows how you'll spend your money. If you have too much debt, you're a risk because you may not be able to pay it all back. If you have an equal amount of debts, spending and expenses and an equal amount of credit.. then... you're okay. Hey - you're a GREAT person! Because each debt you have is interest that someone is making off of you!! Lenders think that's awesome - being able to determine who's eligible based upon who will profit them the most.... neat, huh?!!!
 
We do NOT live in a society where cash means anything. Why do you think this identity crisis thing is out of control? Because it really is? Yeah right - just look at the news and what they're telling you is happening - and maybe you'll see between the lines.. maybe not. But, they WANT you off of cash. They WANT you in a bank. But, be warned... if you screw up... even once... even slightly... you WILL suffer. Your employer can look at your credit report... and determine if you're a thief or unreliable. Car rental companies look at your credit report to determine if the 4 hour car you want to rent, that you pay for the insurance on, that you paid for in full, is a worthwhile 'risk' to them. Car insurance companies judge whether or not you're a safe driver by what your credit report says. No - NOT you. NOT your DRIVING record! Heaven forbid that we judge people's driving based on their driving records!!! It's all about the money. The cash. The dough. The greenbacks. The almighty, all powerful, uncontained.... AMERICAN CURRENCY!
 
Without it - you're nothing. Got TONS of money in the banks and are extremely wealthy? Doesn't matter.. what does your credit report say? (thus.. the fear instilled in you about identity theft... ooooo.... guess what?.... all your money means NOTHING). What about courts or law? They look at your credit reports... so do the police. Maybe Joe Blow down the street stole your credit card, or you dropped it and they picked it up and used it... and now YOU'RE responsible. No... NOT the money.. don't be SILLY! You can PROVE you were off on your yacht, sailing the world, not in Nevada, buying up millions in property. But - the law will still hold you responsible - because it WILL stay on your credit report. In England, the child pornography sting that sent hundreds of people to jail, included a report from the AMERICAN FBI, about credit card purchases for the unlawful materials... that were STOLEN cards. And out of the hundreds who were in danger or who went to jail, that didn't know what to do - DOZENS!! killed themselves. But, hey.. that's England, right?
 
In America... the land of the free and the home of the brave, where individuals were captured and placed in jail and tried in courts for purchasing child pornography with their credit cards (why? Because.. the FBI created a "crisis" and passed another law, without WE the people... and continues to use the media to make us believe we are being attacked on our own soil - playing on our fears an issue that is NOT out of control - bad, and must be dealt with - but in a legal and controlled way - not the way it is now), were later determined to be INNOCENT because their identities were stolen with their credit cards!! Unfortunately, that didn't matter for many, because the marks were on their credit scores and they had permanent arrest records/rap sheepts - and killed themselves. Go read about Mr. America, the U.S. Marine who served ALL OF US with DUTY and HONOR and COURAGE, who put a gun to his head during Mardi Gras because of the same, identical situation of identity theft I just described. Yeah - that's justice for you. He defended you - kept YOU and YOUR children safe, STOPPED terrorism, and had to go out with a gun to his OWN head, leaving behind those HE loved and would never get to see again because YOU people (well, some of you) are TOO ignorant to do something or say something about this. (sorry for the tangent - but HAD to be said)
 
What does it all mean? It's the credit bureaus that put us on alert for the use of credit cards. It's the credit bureaus that act WITHOUT regulation and can put false information on our reports and destroy our lives, that answer to the IRS EVERY TIME they SCREW UP (and they DO - ALOT!!!!!!!!!! AND WE PAY FOR IT!!!), that is our unConstitutionally, unDemocratically, accepted standard for judging us as people, that CAUSED this in the FIRST PLACE! It's the capitalists that are banking off of this system that are laughing at us in these hard, economic times. And, WHY, can't the economy be repaired?
 
The banks were told: here's the money - go lend. And they said, okay! All better, right? Homes saved. Jobs kept. Businesses still running, right? Nope. All gone. Why? BECAUSE - the credit bureaus, check systems, even CLUE, all have us - without our knowledge, our permission, our signing off on anything - without our being informed - EVER - in THEIR systems. And, if we DON'T meet the credit scoring standards - we DON'T get the financial help. So, what did the banks do with it all?
 
HAHAHAHA - they POCKETED it! And, thusly, they needed MORE MONEY to bail them out! AIG - TONS of money, right? All gone in corporate loans? Nope - it's in their banks to spend and play with, because they agreed to hand out insurance to everyone... WHO QUALIFIES. Have you NOT read the stories.. the TENS OF THOUSANDS... not hundreds...not thousands... TENS OF THOUSANDS of stories, in the past 5 YEARS ALONE (that's 4000+ stories every year for those of you keeping score), of people who thought they were doing great, went for their loans, went to refinance, went to get a mortgage, went out to do business as usual, but found themselves suddenly at the losing end of the battle because of the CREDIT BUREAUS, "lending index?" If you haven't - then you're BLIND. If you're ignorant to the subject - then it's time NOT TO BE ANYMORE!! These tens of thousands of people included individuals ranging from the middle class (as the poor usually don't waste their time.. think about it people), to the filthy rich. And, what happened? BILLIONS OF DOLLARS were lost. Taxes couldn't be paid. Businesses hit the dirt.. and guess what?
 
Here we are today. Sure - spend $785 BILLION... hey, why not spend 140 QUADRILLION? It won't matter. The money is NOT trickling down to the people, because Capitalism sank its claws into the people, THROUGH the government, and because of the GOVERNMENT, we are screwed. And, who's going to fix all this? The GOVERNMENT? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... no wait, sorry about that... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... no really, it's not funny... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - okay, okay - yes it is. It's HILARIOUS!!! Why? Because - the government's NOT STUPID. And, don't you believe for one second that they are. Don't you be fooled. Don't be hornswaggled by the media. The Government knows EXACTLY what they are doing. Even as I write this, Obama is meeting with "small business leaders" (which of course, means a few of the wealthiest... since small business is the WHOLE country and big business are the few who can meet in one meeting...), to discuss a bailout portion for them, to stimulate the economy through incentives for their hiring people.
 
Wait... won't the businesses CONTINUE to rely upon credit reports, check systems, CLUE, etc.? YES!! They will! Won't the monies that are being offered to them.. THROUGH THE BANKS... be dependent on their credit scores? YES, it will!!! So, how are the businesses that are struggling and don't have high enough credit scores going to profit? How are the people who have lost out from this economy going to be hired when their credit scores are too low?
 
Wait.. that's STUPID. It DOES NOT WORK! YES!! And, Uncle Obama, KNOWS it. So, why is he doing it? The equation, while I don't have it totally down, is, in its basic form, pretty straight forward: the politics of 'looking good,' keep the people stupid, is what it's all about. It keeps us from realizing the underlying truth of what's killing us financially, morally and ethically - governmental injection of capitalism and control into our very lives. It keeps people having 'hope,' where NONE is to be found. And, when .. NOT IF... WHEN... it fails, the government will be able to sink their OWN fangs in deeper. The only real IRONY, of ALL of this, is that when the government DOES... they'll turn on those creditors who use and instituted the credit bureau lending/renting/living score systems, TEAR them apart (and then they will have to realize the effects of their greed and selfishness WAY too late...includign the gvt. placing the blame on them totally and accepting no responsibility for their own actions), and then take control of the scoring system databases - and our lives - with ALL of our information - right OR wrong - and of course, we all know just how well kept government databases are, accuracy wise, that is. I pray I'm wrong - but I know I'm not.
 
The solution - simple: equal out everyone's credit scores to zero. Equal out Check Systems to zero. Equal out Clue to nothing. END clue, END check systems and limit the 3 credit bureaus to reporting of lending, not credit cards, change the scoring system to include income, give higher presidence to good than bad, remove all other reporting methods, withhold the ability of any lender to report anything for 1 year, then set a new standard that bases lending scores upon good credit to mean people who are maintaining their finances, not people who are out borrowing and making others rich through exorbitant interest rates. (btw - for those of you arguing against this - credit bureaus don't help lenders reclaim their money.. they are.. in truth.. the only known "legal" method that creditors have to THREATEN you to get back their money by "threatening" to ruin your lives with your credit reports [and thus, the truth in all that I've said thus far] .. and they DO this... IF they want their money, they can go to small claims court and get it back through a solid paper trail.. NOT threat or FEAR tactics). Base it upon a person's life, not the almighty, dollar bill. In fact.. take it a step further - and remove it altogether!! Now, everyone qualifies for a loan based on: do they make enough money to pay for the loan? See? Isn't that simple? Isn't that easy? If a person defaults on a mortgage, what does the bank do? They repo the house, then resell it, and make MORE money than if the person had paid it all themselves. I don't see anyone being hurt except the people who couldn't pay for their house? And, it wasn't because they were lied to or jerked around with interest rates, it was based on: do you make enough money now, and will it be enough in the future, to continue to pay for this loan? Why is that SO HARD? Hell, I couldn't get a loan until I get back to work - but as soon as I did, I could get enough of a one to quit paying $10k a year in rent (I know- I get lucky with such low rent), and pay $10k a year on a home. A standard 20-year loan - $150k home, that's it (the other $50k in the outrageous interest rates that HAVE to drop.. sheesh!). Simple. My car insurance - NOT inflated because of my credit score. Why? I would be judged based upon a GREAT driving history - not how much MONEY I make. Otherwise, the insurance companies.. hey.. JUST like AIG, get to be rich by helping to SCREW the American economy, and violate our rights, in States where insurance is legally required, to be given insurance without bias of age, income, race, religion, etc.! Let's fix it, shall we? Even poorer folks, like myself, can qualify for rentals without living in fear! Maybe, we can EVEN get jobs. And, this time, if we screw up - IF - it is no longer a matter of 'risk' - which is to say: WE ARE CURRENTLY BEING ASSUMED GUILTY FROM THE BEGINNING AND HAVE TO PROVE OUR INNOCENCE REPEATEDLY TO EVERYONE AND ARE BEING PUNISHED FOR SIMPLY "LIVING" IN THIS SO-CALLED 'FREE' AND 'GREAT' COUNTRY; but we can be held accountable IF we screw up, and have a chance to succeed - JUST LIKE our FOREFATHERS INTENDED. And, that system, hurt Nobody except those who couldn't pay their debts, for a VERY long time in this country; and it WORKED. There was no reason for the credit bureau change EXCEPT to support corporate greed and wealth. It's simple, folks... see? Not that hard, is it? Even the stimulus - would suddenly work, because the banks would FINALLY make the loans demanded of them and [unfortunately] continue to charge their outrageous interest (that they never pay back to their investors..... you know... the people... oddly enough... for those of you with a checking or so-called 'savings' account.. you understand what I'm saying), and people can afford to live, the economy can prosper, and hey - we'd all be in a better place financially than we are now!! Think about it...
 
There is a terrible storm coming... will you build your house from bricks.. or continue to live in straw huts?

We don't need Mary Poppins - we NEED the TRUTH (pt 2)

Continuing on... you see... one of the very, most precious gifts that the Lord has seen fit to bestow upon me is: vision. You can call it prophecy, strangeness, illusions, delusions, dreams, whatever. Personally, I don't care what you call it. When you read the following, perhaps you'll see what I mean:
 
You see, I saw this army. They were slothful and fat. They were dumb and lazy. They fought amongst themselves, hurting each other. They stayed in their armor, dirty, smelly, constantly stuffing their faces, falling asleep in between everything they had to do and so on. Why? Because, the government that commanded them, that ordered them to kill and commit corruption and help them get away with anything they wanted, that government knew, that the BEST way to control these people was to keep them happy - all the time. Keep the wool over their eyes. If these people weren't fat and eating themselves to death, they were tired and asleep. If they weren't doing either of those, they were doing what the government told them. If one of them got injured and complained (as I saw two of them fight, the bigger one cutting off the smaller ones' arm and the smaller one running around for help), nobody listened. Nobody responded. They let him bleed to death and die. Everybody was too preoccupied with themselves to care. They wore their 'armor' like it was some kind of security blanket. They believed their personal power and authority to be absolute because they were given whatever they wanted.
 
Meanwhile - the people suffered. That food did not come for free. It came from the starving homes of children. They were fed sweets and candies and all sorts of "goodies", that were, in reality, very, very bad for them. Their sense of 'justice,' hurting the innocent, even one another, without consideration for morality, lef them to self-indulgance. Their constantly falling asleep simply kept them busy and out of the way. Whenever someone cried out for help, there may have been a spark.. an inkling of interest... but it soon faded. How does this relate to our current society?
 
Simple: we have been lead into self-indulgance, greed and desensitization by the very authorities we trusted to be the shepards. Think I'm being an 'extremist?' Maybe you haven't noticed the cars on the road - the people who pass by the starving and homeless, desensitized to the fact that there REALLY ARE quite a few people out there in need, even if they appear not to be, and instead, pay CASH to 'beautify' the hunk of INANIMATE steel that they call their vehicles - as it's their status symbol. Maybe you haven't noticed your dependence on radio and television. Maybe you haven't noticed that when a news story comes up and we all get excited, it disappears and switches to the next topic before it's ever done and we don't even remember what the last one was! Still don't believe me? How many of you remember who Terri Schiavo is? C'mon - how many? What was the case about? Hey - doesn't matter that the media should have stayed the hell out of it and the law was wrong to intervene in the way they did - but the truth is - who remembers? Who knew about the thousands and thousands of OTHERS who are in hospitals, at the same time Shiavo was, suffering from the same fate? Or, about the millions who have been suffering that fate for the past 30+ years?
 
Here's the one truth above all others I can COMPLETELY assure you of:
 
You don't want to know the truth.
 
I mean that. Not as a 'warning,' but as a 'matter-of-fact' statement. You, personally, would rather NOT know the world is ending, NOT know the economy is failing, NOT know that bad things are going to happen. And, the media KNOWS it! They've been training you, at the order of the shepards (government), for countless years now. They've been masterfully convincing you that death, gangs, violence and such factors are not really, "that big of a deal." Well, that is, unless the Feds suddenly 'want' it to be, and suddenly, there's a "crisis!" Remember the 80's? Remember the stories that made people live in fear in big cities, that you would be carjacked, at gunpoint, at every intersection? You don't? Either you're too young... and it's time you realize that you NEED to be educated for YOURSELF... or you were trained to ignore it and move on. How many of you remember the "AIDS" epidemic? Where did that go? The "Killer bees?" The "Bird flu".... people.. "ANTHRAX?" Where have these things gone? Go ahead - take a sealed, manilla envelope to a courthouse, with documentation to turn in, stand in line and try to open it up in front of the court clerk. Know what he/she's going to tell you? GO OUTSIDE and do that. They're not allowed to let you open the envelopes in the courthouse because of the Anthrax concern. You can't bring sealed documents into a courthouse for that reason!! But... where'd the story go? Since when did we ALL become the terrorists?
 
It's simple. Mary Poppins... isn't real. Sorry. Hate to spoil it for you, but she's only the representation of the good within each and everyone of us if we ever chose to look for it. Her umbrella is love. Her smile is charity. Her gift was not profit, for in truth, it came with a price. If we want things to be better in our lives, we have to WORK for it. No, I'm NOT talking about the daily, grinding, boring, unrewarding and unrelenting job you have simply so you can pay off some debts and continue to incur others, hoping against hope to stay in that "comfort" zone; I'm talking about yourselves, your friends, and your family.
 
This isn't a 'cheery,' lovey, make you feel all warm-hearted turn around. It's the truth. In the vision I was given, the one person who watched all of this pain could sit by no longer. They began to fight back. Sure, the guards... the people... who had been kept in limbo, were gong to suffer and be hurt. They were going to find themselves at the ends of boots and fistacuffs, not out of anger, but out of love. Something HAD to break their routine. Unfortunately, in the world we're in, there's only one 'wake up' call that can be severe enough to aid the vast majority now:
 
War. Not even natural disasters work anymore. Look at South west America. What happened to the south? What happened to the people? Do you even know? A tsunami SO powerful, that it flooded multiple CITIES, wiped out homes and destroyed lives... but... the media, who capitalized on it when it happened, quickly buried it to keep you from caring. What about the flood that hit asia and killed over 100,000 people? The orphaned children? Have you heard about them? It profitted the media... and then *poof*, just like magic, it went away. You see, when the media tries to be "mary poppins," they swoop in, make everything look good, take their money and then leave. But, unlike Mary Poppins, they don't actually fix anything. In fact, just the opposite. They end up making things worse because we never had time to deal with the original problems that were there and are suddenly encountering newer, even more devastating problems! Be afraid folks.. be very afraid. And if you aren't now.. you will be ... you will be. (no... I'm not paying Lucasfilms for that either.... nor am I getting paid, so we can call it even).
 
We need the truth. we need to know everything sucks. This isn't because we 'need' a downer. We're ALREADY in a depressed state. This is the most depressed nation of people in the UNIVERSE.. at any given time in all of HISTORY! But, when a person's down, what do you do? Do you sit in there and tell a manic depressive, "hey bud, it's gonna be okay,"? Do you look in at the person sitting in the bath tub, getting ready to slice their wrists open or drop a hair dryer in the water with them and say, "Don't look so glum, buddy, things are gonna work out!"? YOUR positivity makes people MORE depressed. Maybe things WILL work out. Maybe they'll just work out for YOU. But, by pretending everything's beautiful - we are only MASKING the truth. By ignoring the problem, we are only letting it GET WORSE. You have to step up to the people, you have to take 'em by the hand and say, "HEY - YEAH - things SUCK - things are BAD - and probably, they are going to get WORSE! AND, I can't promise you I can fix them, or they'll EVER get fixed, but sitting here sulking, sitting here getting ready to give up... even sitting here PRETENDING that your house is NOT on fire will ONLY BURN YOU."
 
What is it the President said that the news jumped all over? (now remember... I'm NOT an Obama supporter... but here's the truth): He said: People, the economy's bad. Things don't look good. We need change NOW. We need to do something immediately or we're all going to fail.
 
So, why did the government (aka controllers of and via the media), slap down the request for positivity. People WERE listening to the President and WERE trying to get prepared for the worst. They WERE watching the news and saying, "hey - we're all being cheated and lead like lambs to the slaughter - we NEED change." But, it wasn't the change the President wanted. The government didn't want us involved. Instead, they realized their mistake. Rather than us just accepting their totalitarian authority, we were going to rebel, and in order to appease the masses, they are filling our plates with "goodies," they are shrouding us in "armor," and they are trying to quietly separate themselves from us. The results?
 
Those "goodies," these "incentives", the "stimulus package," and other factors... are actually NOT good for us at all, and we will suffer for indulging in them.
The "armore," the 'protective blanket,' that tells people to spend, spend, spend, people to be okay with the idea their nest egg will return, people not taking action against AIG, believing the government is doing it for them, will wake up from their slumber only to find their armor was cheap ol' plastic and aluminum, and when the sword comes down, we will be hurt... badly.
And, their separation... well... you've read George Orwell's, 1984, haven't you? What about Ayn Rand's, When Atlas Shrugged? (1984 is on video for those of you lazy people.. like me :)... don't know if atlas shrugged is.. you can look it up if you want). If you have.. then you've been warned.. you're just ignoring it. If you haven't... then you're the ones who are going to suffer doubly, unaware that the tsunami will hit.
 
It takes one person, folks. A guy from Texas told the IRS - "I'm not paying taxes. You can't make our elected officials do it.. who are NOT above the law... you can't make me do it." Another gentleman followed after a senator and caught up with him in the white house, on camera, and video tapped his attempts at forcing the Senator to answer the question, "Why are YOU not being held responsible for your actions and how can YOU represent the people if you're cheating them?"
 
But, do you hear about them now? Nope. The news doesn't want you to hear that 'negativity.'?????
 
Finally... let's not forget one, important point. Mary Poppins - the REAL story of Mary Poppins - wasn't the kind nanny who 'shielded' anyone from the truth. She was adamant that the solution to the problem can only come when we face the REAL problem. She didn't tell the children the banks were corrupt or deceiptful. She didn't tell them their father was just another corrupted bureaucrat. She told him the truth about the world around him. The little old lady who feeds the birds really COULD use their support. THAT was a worthy cause. She didn't diss on the banks. She didn't tear into "father." She let them destroy themselves, but cound only do so by EDUCATING the children with the truth. You cannot defend yourself if you are not equipped. You need the truth. You need to believe in what's right. You need to stand up. You need to not let the few who have tried be the only ones. No one rose up after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. fell, and because of it, his dream was corrupted (referring back to the post regarding the boondocks and segregation). The impoverished CAN'T do it alone. YOU - ALL of you - must fight. Think you're going to risk what you have? What have you got? Really... what is it? What is so valuable to you that you don't believe in freedom? Your stuff? ... too sad for me to comment on.... Your family? Sure.. till they get hit with the 200 - 400% tax increase, and money will tear everything apart.. war will tear it apart....
 
Maybe your wealth? What you profit from today, will have to be taken away tomorrow - when you'll need it the most - to pay for everything you were given today. Your life? What life? What are you here for? What are you working for? What are you doing? Don't be afraid to be the one. It has to be a chain.. it has to continue.. and only when our voices raise.. only when one.. after another.. after another.. fight.. die and care MORE about the future then themselves.. does change happen.
 
Just look at Christ. If it was good enough for the Son of GOD, to die as a mortal, to save the people; and His disciples to do the same, then should we not quit inflating our egoes and also stand up?..... think about it... not today.. not tomorrow.. but soon....

We don't need Mary Poppins - we NEED the TRUTH (pt 1)

It's all over the news; the media has been having a feeding frenzy on the issue: positivity. Barrack Obama needs to be more 'positive' in his speeches. The media needs to be more 'positive'. There are articles being published, calling for the media and press to start reporting 'good times,' not negativity.
 
But, does trying to transform the President and the media into a virtual 'Mary Poppins,' come with a price?
 
The answer is: yes; a very, very steep price. Here's the truth:
  • The economy has failed.
  • Democracy has failed.
  • Capitalism has failed.
  • Greed has led us down the poophole.
  • Churches have quit offering the truth.
  • The government's level of corruption is at an all-time high.
  • Government spending is out of control.
  • Our future generations are about to be totally screwed.
  • We NEED change NOW - not tomorrow or in a few years, NOW.
  • IF change doesn't happen, all of us alive today, WILL feel the terrible effects before it's over - and we WILL suffer too.
 
Sound very positive? No? Let me "Mary Poppinize" it for you in the way the media would like to see it:
  • Hey, the economy will get better, don't worry.. spend, spend, spend!
  • The Government's not responsible... past government's were, and this is a brand new day and age of honesty and integrity!
  • Don't blame corporate America, corporate greed is a good thing, it stimulates fair growth for small businesses and all of us.
  • You have every RIGHT to DEMAND MORE money... and we SHOULD spend more.. it's a good thing...
  • Separation of Church and State is an 'old school' philosophy, we need to do it Rome's way, where the government commands religion and policies exist to FORCE specific variations in faith...
  • Our politicians are there for US! They love us and care! They won't do ANYTHING that we wouldn't want them to do!
  • Don't worry about the 'free' money, we'll print more. After all, if you still have checks in your checkbook, are you REALLY broke?
  • The future generations don't know what's good for them. We do. We'll fix it.. just wait it out and see.. and if it's too late to fix it later, well, then we can all look back and laugh at this, right?
  • Change will come, just keep trudging away in your lives, and you'll see... aren't things getting better right now?
  • It's our job today, to care about tomorrow, and we can make the difference, we'll just add the taxation later on... and of course, there's no need to concern ourselves with a 400% tax increase on future generations... they'll have TONS of money, won't they?
Hmmm.... well, I don't know about you, but I feel SO much better! Whew! What a relief! Things are looking GREAT! I'm not gonna worry about unemployment, failing small businesses or HUGE government spending bills. I'm not gonna let AIG or the banks get me down! I'm going forward now! I'm preparing for my future! I'm... what's that? What do you mean I didn't have the money to spend? What do you mean the stock prices are still falling and I've lost everything? What do you mean I have nowhere to live? What do I do now?
 
What do you mean you have no answers because we wiped ourselves out? Didn't Mary Poppins save us? Didn't her umbrella of protection against the storms bring us new hopes? Didn't the bank hire back the family head that they fired so brutally and unjustifiably (as he finally stood against their greed), and give him a raise and higher rank and position? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE MOVIES AREN'T REAL???
 
Folks, it's called the primrose path:
Do not, as some ungracious pastors do,
Show me the steep and thorny way to heaven,
Whiles, like a puff'd and reckless libertine,
Himself the primrose path of dalliance treads
And recks not his own rede.
 
Hypocrisy. It's pure and simple. The doctor is dedicated to healing people... which is to say, 'he cares about people,' .... but only those who can afford it, which is, in contrast, to say, 'he doesn't care for people.' The politician is dedicated to representing the interests and needs of the people who elect him, which is to say, 'he is there to serve the people,' .... but passes bills without them, generates money for the government and his own raises, which is, in contrast, to say, 'he serves himself.' The police officer is dedicated to enforcing laws against lawbreaking citizens, which is to say, 'he serves the interests of justice for the safety of the people,'.... but instead, matlock isn't real, the detectives constantly attack and berate innocent people, shoot innocent people, imprison innocent people, stalk the people assuming their guilt and constantly lie because they don't care about hurting the innocent majority to get a few bad guys to get their money raises and exert/show off their power, which is, in contrast, to say, 'they serve their personal agendas.' This list goes on...
 
Congress just announced that they are going to, "end this foolish, automatic, cost of living increase, which, in these hard economic times, is ridiculous and unfair to the people." [They are now going to require a vote to pass cost of living increases]...
 
.... okay... stay with me on this one... (trying not to laugh out loud here)....
 
Congress did NOT, just announce, that they are going to stop giving "themselves" continuous raises, but rather, they are going to stop seeing to it that the American public, the PEOPLE, stop getting cost of living wage increases unless it is voted upon. Wait a second.. wasn't it... "we the people," who voted in to have the cost of living increases? Who remembers this? C'mon --- I know YOU do! YOU remember that YOU WANTED your employers to be forced to adjust their minimum wage levels for cost of living increases!! But, it doesn't MATTER what YOU want. YOU'RE JUST the PEON voter who means NOTHING in a Democracy. Now, Congress will vote on it.. FOR YOU. In fact, the cost of living increase vote also helped limit the old, Congress-giving-themselves-automatic-raises-whenever  the heck they wanted to, procedure. But, now, Congress will get to reinstate that. Fix the "old" Bush ways that were so screwed up.. you know... the ones that said the people's wages have to be adjusted for the cost of living increases? Remember that now?
 
When we are LIED to - when we are lead to believe that everything's 'beautiful,' we are NOT dealing with the Mary Poppins' of the world.. oh no... we are dealing with the Bernie Madoffs. We are dealing with the Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's. We are dealing with the CORRUPTED, GREEDY, SELFISH people that are trying to get their OWN agendas by you by "snow-jobbing" you. Why do they want you to be happy? Well... let me 'splain.... in part 2.. hee hee hee
