Brandon Raub: Victim of Tyranny in America
The End of Liberty is Near
I find the current situation in our nation both frightening and ironic. The frightening part took a more serious turn a few days ago. On Thursday August 16, 2012, former Marine Corp member Brandon Raub, decorated for valor in both Iraq and Afghanistan, was “detained”; not arrested but “detained”, by federal, state, and local authorities. He was taken from his home in handcuffs, without charge, and is being held indefinitely pending a “mental competency hearing” before a judge (http://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2012/08/brandon-raub-ndaa-arrest-video-2449432.html). And what is his “crime”? Mr. Raub was so bold as to criticize the federal government; Barack Obama, Eric Holder, politicians in both political parties, and bureaucrats who ignore the Constitution and do as they please without the consent of the governed.

The democrats demands or tax return disclosure is a joke. Debbie Wasserman Schultz has already declared that Mitt Romney has paid 14% of his 20 million income. That means that she has admitted that Romney has Paid 2 million 8 hundred thousand dollar in income taxes in one year while Harry Reid declares that he has info that Romney has not paid any income tax for 10 years. Is Wasserman Shultz calling Reid a liar or is Reid calling Waserman Schultz a liar. First their is no 14% tax bracket. The tax brackets are 10, 15, 25,28, 33% and 35 %- The 35% bracket is for all those with taxable incomes over $390,500.
There are 2 types of tax percentages the effective tax % of tax to adjusted gross income and the applied tax % of taxable income after adjustments, exemptions deductions and tax credits, all of which are specified in the tax code.
Since when is $2,800,000 not a fair share. the vast majority of middle and low income taxpayers pay less than 12% of their AGI and the demo adds harp on the fact that Romney has paid 14% of his AGI. What is a fair share?
Well the IRS releases statistics every year on the number of tax returns filed and the income tax generated from those returns. The latest statistics are for the year of 2009. These statistics show the number of returns filed as 104 million 164 thousand, 970 which generated taxes on 5 trillion,091 billion, 769 million,819 thousand of income and generated $953 billion, 411 million, 142 thousand of income tax revenues or a little under of $500 per return average.
Remember all of the tax credits that the more affluent members of society enjoy have been put into place by a large percentage of those elite members of society, ie politicians. So how much of the incentive to serve our country comes from love of country and how much from love of money especially for long term politicians. The argument for term limits has been well established by the financial perks exclusively available to our long term elected officials including the disontinuance of the Social security payroll ax once their earnings from wages bonus's, etc exeed $110,000 per yr and their exorbitant political perks are not subjct at all.
As for foriegn income upon which foriegn income taxes are paid and then credited against US taxes generated, while taxes paid to US states is only allowed as a deductable item reducing taxable ncome, this application is one of the incentives to take money out of the country.
DO NOT GET OUT AND VOTE. WE REPUBLICANS WANT YOUR VOTE I,LL BE HONEST ABOUT THAT, WE NEED YOUR VOTE. OBAMA THE LIER DOSE NOT WANT YOU TO VOTE. IF OBAMA WINS WE WILL NEVER VOTE AGAIN.
FOR IMMEDIATE PRESS RELEASE:
Shut Down Shot Down Sexy- The hottest song in America right now
Maybe its a precursor to come, but all ready Cody Robert Judy knows what its like to be 'shut down and shot down' by the 11 Courts on the eligibility of Barack Obama. There is yet one last Court that will weigh in on what some have called the divining case in the history of America. The United States Supreme Court is really the Court that should weigh in on the eligibility issue and case of our time Judy v. Obama 12-5276, and not use the excuse that 'standing' wasn't achieved for the last four years in order to wave justice good bye.
If this case is given the 'kiss-off' by the highest Court in the land, then there is no telling what the government is going to do to you. If justice won't protect the individual freedom certainly has been lost. The justice of the Republic has always been seen in the strength of the individual to stop the mass from rolling over top of rights and protections well established. Protected by the Constitution, and if that is shucked off by the Court, well it will be only a short time when most of the mass finds out that they are individuals being run over.
Of course, once it's lost, it means the devil to get back. Most media outlets have thought 'why should a smaller campaign be able to constitutionally check a larger campaign?', what gives a smaller campaign that right?
You know one thing for sure, the United States Supreme Court is not going to have to worry about the media telling America about this case before it is adjudicated because there hasn't been a single story written about it by an outside reporter. Yeah, that's anonymity that can't be mistaken. Nope the Supreme Court will rule on this with their own conscience and we all will know it wasn't the demonstrations outside on the lawn that influenced their decision.
What gives any individual the right to stand up against the government if the government decides to "take" your microphone? Or take your house? Or take your Car? Or take your children?
You might have the chance to use your 'individual' right at this time, thinking that being part of the mass in rolling over Cody Robert Judy's Campaign is 'good riddance', but hold that thought while you ask yourself, "Do you really want the Constitution to perish, and your rights as an individual to perish along with Cody's?"
Well, we're not "all" serous here at the Campaign Headquarters and while we take time to comment on issues we also take time to sing and to celebrate the little bit of 'rebel' in everyone of us in America. We are you know? Rebels.
That's right and never has a Nation of rebels come so far. Sometimes it is good to remember where you came from. It wasn't all 'prim and proper', so let's celebrate our rebel a little with this song because America has a reputation to protect, and we sure as hell have a Constitution to protect last I checked that every politician in Washington DC had sworn an oath to.
Let's hope the United States Supreme Court remembers that oath, and remembers that the qualifications for the office of President didn't include producing birth certificates, draft registrations, and social security cards that represent forgery more then legitimacy and fraudulent actions more then honest ones, as well as hiding every college transcript that might confirm Obama's transplant status as a foreign student in a sovereign nation under God.

“ When Is Lying Ever Allowed ? ”
“ When Is Lying Ever Allowed ? ”
No doubt for many centuries now, men and women have been looking for the answer to that very question---- “When Is Lying Ever Allowed ?” Whether out of fear, taking advantage of someone, hatred, scamming someone, taking revenge, or for any myriad of reasons, people have been looking to justify and make any excuse possible for making not having to tell the truth whether in part, or in whole. My experience as a Bible believing Christian and pastor as well as after reading the “Good Book” itself ,over and over r the same 20-plus years, I can tell you that not once does the Bible ever speak to us in justifying lying. In fact, right away Numbers 23;19 comes to mind where the Bible tells us the very nature of God is “truth” and that “ God is not a man, that he should lie...” The Word of God in which most people my age or older, were taught not to lie from the teaching of the 9th Commandment of the Ten Commandments. Do you remember or know what God states in that Commandment? Well whether you remember, are aware or not, here it is for you; “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” I am keenly aware that some of you reading this article may not believe or follow any of the Ten Commandments, but I want to make it quite clear that the not believing or desire in following the 10 Commandments does not negate the great impact they have had and still have upon most Western nations today. In fact, as folks may make their way looking to wiggle out of following any one of the Commandments, we can also find perhaps some of the largest culprits of “wiggling” from following God, and she/he is like the “lawyer” of yester-year and even that of modern times. All one needs to do to see this attitude from past to even to present is in reading Luke 10:29, we can read that it was a lawyer “.... wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, 'And who is my neighbor? “ Looking at people's hearts today as well as our government and judicial system, nothing hearts and minds still look for reason and excuse to lie whenever possible. Indeed, even from the time before Jesus, nothing has changed, the lawyers, judges and the whole host of government and police agencies that support have in all sorts of excuses in their making and justifying lies.

Donna Haslinger-Lying
Lawyer
We are all aware, I am sure that matters of lying goes on everyday in court rooms and as well in hearts all across our nation. Staying focused on the professionals who engage in lying as part of their we just to see how two opposing lawyers in a court room operate. They both tell their side of their story, but neither story matches with the other- how can this be ? Most people have come to accept that when a lawyer lies in court, that is justifiable because she/he is representing their client. Likewise, judges may make awful and prejudicial rulings against anyone they want at anytime. There is no recourse against this sort of lie other than to go to a higher court on appeal and hope to get the bad judges prejudicial ruling overturned. Nothing “bad” will ever happen to the judge for she/he has absolute immunity when ruling from the bench. Judges lie all the time, especially in Family Courts despite their being a code of conduct for judges(lawyers also) but because of the attitude of their sticking together in their “Ol' boy's club” attitude amongst those in the local and or state Bar Association, very, very times will you ever hear of a judge or lawyer getting in trouble for lying. Matters and decisions of the law are always justified in the courtroom, even to the degree of lying.

Corrupt Genesee County, NY Judge Robert Noonan
Of course if lawyers and judges can “legally” lie, so can those who protect the judges and lawyers in and outside the courtroom; that is, the police. The Supreme Court of The United States of America has repeatedly made in it's decisions that the police may lie to you at any extent in getting or manipulating a person to admit guilt in a crime. Despite Perjury Laws that prevent people in making false statements to police, testifying under oath in the courtroom, police are allowed to lie to you at anytime if they have reasonable suspicion that you have been involved in the act of committing a crime. Apparently...police, judges and lawyers are all exempt through immunity from what the rest of our society is not allowed to practice.

Corrupt Erie County, NY Judge Tracey Bannister
Of course lawyers and judges are obviously not only the only group of people who justify lying; religious people lie also. Perhaps you are familiar with the word “Taqiyya” where by both Shi'a and Sunni Muslims utilize their teachings from their Qur’an to lie to others either for reason for protection or to take advantage of an “infidel”(non Muslim believer). If you haven't noticed, there is absolutely no shortage of Islamists in our nation and their numbers are growing daily here in America. Even Mormons/latter Day Saints are allowed to lie in their religion in which they apparently call “Lying For The lord” http://www.mormonwiki.org/Lying_for_the_Lord . There have been also Roman Catholic theologians who have justified lying in the past also http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/09469a.htm. Seems to me, an awful lot of religious people justify lying. I'm glad I'm not religious, Jesus of the Bible declared lying wrong and as a matter of fact, it was my Jesus of the Bible who called out the Jewish religious leaders of his time in John 8:44 saying; “ You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father the devil, and the desires your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

Indeed, people will lie for any reason really. Inevitably, most people lie to gain control over someone or something. In America and all across the world really, many people have wrongfully accepted lying as an acceptable practice. Barack Obama lies, Mitt Romney lies, the vast majority of politicians lie whether through an out right lie or through omission ( http://blackroberegimentpastor.blogspot.com/2011/12/sin-of-omission.html). Interestingly I see that although the vast majority of the electorate are aware that these politicians lie, hose very same people will still vote for the lying politicians anyway ! Think about that for a minute would you?... What can be said about any culture or people group where people knowingly vote to elect liars ? So many people these days lie to one another, it has become and epidemic and so many people these days lie as becoming natural to them just as eating a meal or like riding a bicycle. In fact, so many people purposely lie these days, it is difficult to know when people are telling the truth.
I have people contact me all the time for one reason or another but, what I am learning about the great degree of lying occurring in our world is that these days I need to be very cautious when communicating with so many of people because until I really get to know them, I never know if what they are sharing with me is truth. There are so many people these days with spiritual, mental health, emotional issues and or devious motives it is getting more and more difficult to know whom to trust. Perhaps the most watched for lie that I look for are those who tell half-truths, that is to say that people will not tell an entire lie but tell me or someone else truth mixed with a lie. In other words, truth and lies are mixed, and to me, that is the most dangerous sort of lie because truth is enmeshed with a lie as well. The Bible warns all of us to be aware of such half-truths in 2Corinthians 11:14 “and for no wonder, even satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” The devil is always active in people and half-truths are the lies he uses the most to do his dirty work.
As I have been already victimized by a Filipina Migration Marriage Scammer who used already corrupted judges, lawyers to help defraud me and even to use a City of Batavia, NY cop to threaten to murder me and deny and violate my Natural, God given and US Constitutional rights as a Bible believing Christian the lesson here hopefully learned for all in this article is this; we ought not ever to lie ( http://www.corruptgenesee.com )
. There is never a time lying is allowed by God of the Bible. Those who do engage in lying need to repent to Jesus for their act. Being there is no excuse for lying and those who are put in charge of leadership of any nation should be the first to repent to set a Godly example for the rest. I do as the Bible so declares, that If those leaders who engage in lying or any other ungodly act will not repent, they should simply be removed. There is no place in any society for unrepentant liars or for any other unrepentant sinister act as a matter of fact. Let's all get our hearts right before Almighty God, not just in the area of lying.

Now we come to the last of our “special seven” series. Like those before it, it contains many inside players and funding from various “stimulus” government programs. While Lewis Hay (the CEO of NextEra Energy) with his White House involvement and friendship with former Florida Governor Charlie Crist make for some juicy details in the NextEra story, we’ll begin with a brief background that will help put this next piece of the green-energy crony-corruption scandal in perspective.
NextEra Energy, Inc. is one of the oldest, third largest, and arguably one of the most solid power companies in the world, with “2011 revenues [that] totaled more than $15.3 billion.” It is estimated by Forbes, that CEO “Hay earns nearly $10 million in total compensation from NextEra.”
NextEra Energy Inc. has two primary subsidiaries:
Money With its wealth and widespread influence, the DOE gave this huge energy conglomerate nearly $2 billion of taxpayer money, which includes the two risky projects listed below, plus hundreds of millions more in various stimulus grants.
Desert Sunlight: $1.2 billion In September 2011, the DOE approved a $1.2 billion loan guarantee for the junk-rated Desert Sunlight project in California. A day after the loan was approved, First Solar, the project developer/owner sold Desert Sunlight to NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, the competitive energy subsidiary of NextEra Energy, Inc. and GE Energy Financial Services. Both CEO's are on President Obama's Job Council: Lewis Hay of NextEra Energy and Jeffrey Immelt of GE. NOTE (and correction from the Townhal.com column): GE is another top Obama donor, donating $529,855 to his 2008 campaign, while they have raked in more than $3 billion of stimulus money, and counting.
Genesis Solar Project: $681.6 million But as we reported in the beginning of this series, the Desert Sunlight Project is not the only large DOE “risky” loan that NextEra secured. NextEra Energy Resources also received $681.6 million from the DOE for its Genesis Solar project in Blythe, California. This was one of the few DOE 1705 loans that were not considered junk rated, as S&P placed it at a “lower medium grade.”
Environment
Remember that the common denominator of these “special seven” projects was a “fast-tracked DOI approval?” The policy has come back to bite the projects.
According to the Los Angeles Times (LAT), “The $1-billion Genesis Solar Energy Project has been expedited by state and federal regulatory agencies that are eager to demonstrate that the nation can build solar plants quickly to ease dependence on fossil fuels and curb global warming. Instead, the project is providing a cautionary example of how the rush to harness solar power in the desert can go wrong—possibly costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars and dealing an embarrassing blow to the Obama administration's solar initiative.”
The problem is the “expedited” process may endanger the whole project. The House Committee on Government Oversight and Reform’s March 20, 2012 report says, “To expedite site approval, NextEra opted for a less thorough process.” As a result, the site “encroached on the habitat of the endangered kit foxes.” NextEra had to move the foxes prior to grading the site. “Ultimately, seven foxes died from NextEra’s removal process.”
Additionally, there have been concerns of desert tortoises and a “prehistoric human settlement.”
But warring factions within the environmental movement also plague the NextEra Genesis Solar project.
A small environmental group, the Wildlands Conservancy, raised $45 million to preserve 600,000 acres of the Mojave Desert—with the intent that it would be protected forever. The LAT reports, the Wildlands Conservancy bought the land and deeded it to the federal government only to have 50,000 acres of that bequest opened up for solar development. April Sall, the organization’s conservation director says, the group is “watching this big conservation legacy practically go under a bulldozer.” Sall’s group and others are feeling “burned by the rush to build solar projects.”
The small environmental groups are trying to fight utility-scale solar projects while the big national groups, such as the Sierra Club, have “scolded” some of the local chapters for opposing the projects. A national office directive instructed local chapters to “fall in line.”
Michael O'Sullivan, senior vice president of development for NextEra Energy Resources, says that “the problems threaten the entire project” and “the project could become uneconomical.”
If that were to happen, the LAT explains, “80% of the project's outstanding loans would be covered by the federal government, and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management would begin shopping for another renewable energy company that was interested in leasing the property. If there were no takers, the scarred land would be restored with reclamation bond funds.”
Smart-Grid and Wind Energy Grants
In October 2009, Florida Power & Light (FLP) was awarded the maximum grant amount of $200 milllion for Energy Smart Florida. Interestingly, this is connected to Silver Spring Networks, one of Kleiner Perkins shining green companies, where John Doerr (another jobs council member that was influential in what went into the energy-sector of the 2009-stimulus) and Al Gore are partners, of which their 2008 $75 million investment had scored over $700 million.
The DOE started dishing out billions from the Smart Grid Investment Grant Program (part of the stimulus plan) in August 2009 and awarded select utility companies for particular smart-grid projects––close to sixty percent of Silver Spring “customers” were winners.
In fact, Florida Power and Light, Silver Spring, General Electric, and a few others have joined forces on a Smart Grid Miami project, which was announced in 2009.
(Note: if you are not familiar with the Smart Grid, Brian Sussman’s book Eco-Tyranny offers an overview which includes this: “President Obama cleverly sold it like this: ‘We want to invest in the next-generation of high-speed wireless coverage for 98 percent of Americans. This isn’t just about a faster Internet or being able to friend someone on Facebook. It’s about connecting every corner of America to the digital age.’ The digital age Obama spoke of is the age of Big Brother monitoring your carbon footprint. The Smart Grid’s interactive broadband capability will enable your home’s PCT, HAN, and smart meter to be connected and communicating with your utility provider. Once complete, the utility company will be your government-sponsored Big Brother, constantly monitoring and regulating your carbon footprint. With a bureaucratic keystroke any electrical device in your home could be selectively turned off—or on—without your approval.”)
Also, you'll be “blown away” by the billions ($4.4) of “wind energy grants” that blew out of the stimulus package back in February 2010. General Electric is connected to at least 26% of these wind energy grants as the “Turbine Manufacturer.” NextEra is the “project owner” and the recipient of a $99.9 million grant for a wind project in Colorado.
Politics
So, NextEra Energy, a multi-billion dollar company with a CEO who’s paid multi-millions, gets government grants and loan guarantees worth billions for risky projects that you and I wouldn’t have voluntarily invested in that even the environmentalists can’t agree on.
Despite the fact that NextEra CEO Hay was actually a “major political contributor to Sen. John McCain,” Hay quickly learned which side his bread was buttered on. (FPL employees and PACs have been known to give generously to both sides including $18,800 to Obama’s 2008 Presidential campaign.) On October 8, 2009, Hay dined at the White House in an intimate lunch “with President Barack Obama and a handful of other Fortune 500 executives.” Hay reportedly “boasted to the president about FPL Group’s environmental achievements and Florida Power & Light’s plans to open the nation’s largest solar power plant.” He also “discussed his belief that forward-looking, clean-energy policies are vital to America’s economic recovery and FPL Group’s strong support for legislation to combat global warming and strengthen America’s energy security.”
The opportunity to grandstand obviously worked. Later, in the same month, Hay’s FPL’s DeSoto Next Generation Solar Energy Center in Aracadia, Florida, provided Obama with the perfect backdrop for his announcement about the “nation’s biggest investment in clean energy.” The press release from the White House said: “President Barack Obama today announced the largest single energy grid modernization investment in U.S. history, funding a broad range of technologies that will spur the nation’s transition to a smarter, stronger, more efficient and reliable electric system. … The $3.4 billion in Smart Grid Investment Grant awards are part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act.”
While the announcement regarding the smart-grid grant disbursement was like “Christmas morning” for the 100 recipients, FPL received the maximum $200 million grant, as previously addressed, “to buy 2.6 million new smart utility meters to be placed in homes over the next two years and invest in other technology aimed at cutting energy costs.” And those risky loan guarantees issued to NextEra for the Desert Sunlight and Genesis Solar projects were approved after Obama’s “stimulus PR swing” appearance at FPL’s DeSoto Next Generation Solar Energy Center.
Hay and FPL have a long history of political contributions and have a “cozy relationship” with career politician former Governor Charlie Crist—Republican turned Independent to run against Marco Rubio in 2010, only to lose. In June 2009, FPL and its executives donated more than $36,000 to Crist’s Senate campaign, and Hay was an invited guest at Crist’s December 2008 wedding. While, we don’t know if Hay actually attended the Crist wedding, we do know that he donated to Marco Rubio’s 2010 campaign––what a difference two years make.
Thomas Saporito, an energy consultant and former FPL employee is quoted as saying: “It certainly appears to me that Gov. Crist and certain PSC Commissioners have a very cozy relationship with FPL at a time when FPL is seeking an unprecedented $1.3-billion dollar rate increase.” Crist announced his opposition to FPL's rate hike but objections were limited to a press release and a few comments to reporters.
President Obama's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness
Keeping with the “cozy relationship” model of doing business, Hay joined wealthy Democratic donors on Obama’s Jobs Council in 2011—of which at least five members have direct ties (two indirect) to firms that were awarded billions of clean-energy stimulus money and four are confirmed Obama donors.
A Jobs Council by the way –– those advising President Obama on how to create jobs and grow the economy –– "is full of deep-pocket Democratic donors and high-profile financiers of Obama’s re-election campaign," as reported by ABC News in October 2011.
Since the creation of the President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, the members have pushed for renewable energy subsidies. In October 2011, these Obama advisors who’ve financially benefited from green energy projects—such as Hay—issued a report calling for among other things, “a new federal financing program to attract private investment for clean energy projects via loan guarantees and other tools.”
Hay is just one of the many Council members with green energy connections. Citigroup’s Richard Parsons with ties to SolarReserve, as well as Penny Pritker, who wears many liberal hats, including those close to the president. Pritker brings along her relationship to the $465 million DOE ATVM loan that went to Telsa Motors, which also has quite a few other interesting ties, like Steve Westly, Obama bundler and DOE Advisor. We also find GE’s Jeffrey Immelt and its $3 billion of green-government subsidies, as well as John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins, who has Al Gore as a partner –– where as of 2010 we find that more than fifty percent of its Greentech Portfolio had received money from the energy-sector of the stimulus package and through other government programs approved by the Obama administration.
These Jobs Council members, also known for their “job outsourcing” –– and others like DOE Insiders and the Stimulus Authors –– who’ve benefited from the deal making, deserve a more thorough (forthcoming) exposé. We’ll call it “Spreading the Wealth to Obama’s Wealthy Jobs Council Members.”

ALERT ! We can't Allow This ! http://liberty.com/content/breaking-news-fmr-marine-arrested-fbi-patriotic contact your congressman and senators !

Howdy all! Quick share. Today I had a conversation with a Marine who finished his tours a few years ago and was back home and working. I knew he has PTSD. The conversation turned to his past when he saw the company of my car’s maker – KIA. He said he could never rid in that car or any other made by KIA. Not because he doesn’t like the cars, but the name is a bad memory for him: KIA or K.I.A. He could never ride with a moniker that means Killed In Action. He saw too much of that. I asked him if he minded talking about it. He not only agreed he was thankful I asked. You see for him, the only way he could accept what has happened in his life was to talk freely about it. Without the ability to vent, he would have problems. He is even in a group of other vets who have the same need to talk. And he counsels many other vets who can’t talk, and are having many problems. So, if you have the opportunity to speak to a vet, do so. Be sensitive to them, since it still may be hard for them to open up. But they are our heroes, and our sons and daughters. They need us now in their time of trouble, just as we needed them in our time of trouble.
And so,..
Jesus told her, I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. ~ John 11:25
An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, a power to destroy; because there is a limit beyond which no institution and no property can bear taxation. ~ John Marshall, McCullough v. Maryland, 1819
It’s amazingly obvious that throughout our nation’s entire existence, the trouble caused by overtaxing was well understood. John Marshall was spot on then, just as his words are spot on right now. There is no secret formula to understand. People only have so much. There is a limit to what taxpayers can give without losing everything they have. But when you hear the government speak of needing more and more taxes, there is way to interpret that except they want to control us, and to destroy the country we have. What was the phrase we all learned in school about why the revolution happened? “Taxation without representation.” TAXATION. Tax, tax, tax. There is a limit beyond which no institution and no property can bear taxation.
So, our duty to us and each other is to ensure our government; our federally (AND statewide) elected employees understand the charge We the People have given them. They do NOT rule us. It is the rule of law – republic – which rules us all with no color, creed or religious slant to blind us. Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying.” Follow me and you will live forever in my kingdom. This is His offer to us. He never says he rules over us. Our king, our savior; does not rule over us. He asks us to follow. We should teach our federally elected employees this lesson. They certainly need it.
Take care, God bless and especially at this time in history,
STAND WITH ISRAEL!!!

CHAINCHAINCHAIN!
RACIST MAHER BUYS BLACK PRESIDENT FOR $1 MIL...CHAINCHAINCHAIN...
Lord-Could this be true? Let's pray that it is!
Posted on The Post & Email-By Sharon Rondeau-On August 17, 2012:
“(Aug. 17, 2012) — Fred Brownbill of The Save America Foundation claims that 80 countries have signed a criminal complaint against Barack Hussein Obama and filed it in the World Court. Brownbill states that the complaint is one of four matters which will cause Obama to resign.
The Post & Email interviewed the founder of the Save America Foundation, John Chambers, on May 10 of last year. Brownbill does not mention “if” Obama will resign, but rather, “when.” However, we could find no substantiation for the criminal complaint claim at this time.
Brownbill’s piece is reposted at The White Hats Report without attribution. Who are the “White Hat Reporters?”
Brownbill believes that Obama is seeking a nation which will give him sanctuary and states that the Save America Foundation “has the answer” as to when Obama leaves and for what reason. Brownbill compares Obama’s current situation to that of the Watergate investigation which prompted President Richard M. Nixon to resign the presidency on August 8, 1974. Some members of Congress believe that the Fast & Furious gunwalking scandal rises to or exceeds the level of malfeasance in Watergate and will yield the same results.
Two years ago, some citizens were calling for Obama to resign, predicting that calls for his birth records and college records would break through the mainstream media blockade imposed on anyone who asked for information on the secretive man who had gained access to the White House.
Fox News Pundit Sean Hannity is now asking Obama to release his college transcripts following Donald Trump’s demand that Obama do so last month. Four years ago, Obama’s background was not discussed, including questions about his birthplace and life story.
Despite reports that Joe Biden will be removed from the ticket and replaced with New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the White House has stated that is not the case. Brownbill believes that Hillary Clinton will ultimately replace Biden and possibly even Obama. The rumor about Cuomo began in July of last year.
Biden is known for his tactlessness in public situations.
Several others have predicted that Obama will not be on the ballot in November, despite his aggressive campaigning. When he is not campaigning, the White House schedule lists meetings he is allegedly attending which are closed to the press or simply “No public schedule.”
While Obama’s campaign manager has stated that Romney’s release of “five years” of tax returns would satisfy them, Obama continues to hide behind a birth certificate deemed fraudulent by an official law enforcement investigation, a Connecticut-issued social security number, a Selective Service registration card also labeled fraudulent, unrevealed school, medical and university records and transcripts, withheld documents on the Fast & Furious operation, and unanswered complaints for treason on the part of several thousand citizens.
One U.S. representative wants Congress to vote to repeal everything Obama has signed during his four years in the White House. In early 2009, the same congressman had mailed to this writer copies of alleged birth announcements from two Hawaii newspapers as “proof” that he claimed he had found of Obama’s birth in Hawaii and alleged constitutional eligibility to serve.
The Daily Pen, which appears to have inside information about Barack Hussein Obama and began its reporting in January 2009, contends that the birth announcements do not prove that Obama is a “natural born Citizen” because they were not “medically verified as occurring at a Hawaiian hospital.”
Obama’s actions have been described as “bizarre.” A journalist embedded with Obama during his return flight to the U.S. from Portugal reported that Obama had joked about stopping to see socialist dictator Hugo Chavez before returning home. Earlier this year, Obama was late in appearing for a campaign event in California. A psychotherapist questioned Obama’s “odd mannerisms” two years ago, and foreign heads of state reportedly saw him as “detached from reality.”
What is the reality of Obama’s identity? Is his name “Barack Hussein Obama II,” or has he hidden that, also? If he has another identity, will its discovery usher in a new, more devastating Watergate?
Does Obama have an identity crisis? Writer Edward Klein says that Obama “doesn’t know who he is.”
Do the American people?

Does anyone have any type of connections to get some help to a Veteran that lives in Lake Park Ga. here's his story.
LAKE PARK, GA -
A retired Moody air force base staff sergeant may have only a few weeks left to live after a six year battle with cancer.
Jack Mester's home has deteriorated during his illness, and he's worried about the condition in which he'll leave it for his wife and daughter who are also dealing with serious illnesses.
Jack Mester is a man with an inspirational career. His service for our country exceeds 20 years of duty. He retired from Moody after taking part in Desert Storm as an F-16 crew chief and many other operations.
"I don't consider my self a hero or a person who should be looked up and admired to, I'm just a common man and I'm just trying to do my best," said Mester.
Mester has been fighting esophageal caner for six years and it's about to take his life. His wife suffers from diabetes and lupus and his daughter has epilepsy. The medical bills keep piling up.
"Living on a limited budget, that really hurts because I pay my bills with what SSI gives me and the little money that I have from retirement doesn't go very far," says Mester.
From being sick for so many years his home has been seriously neglected.
After the family's central air condition unit went out, they had to resort to window units, because they couldn't afford to replace it.
The White House re-election campaign wants to make a deal. In exchange for GOP presidential challenger Mitt Romney releasing five years of tax returns, they will stop criticizing him for not releasing more. While hiding behind the skirt of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the White House campaign alleges there may be as many as ten years when Romney evaded paying income taxes.
Romney says that over the past decade he has paid at least 13 percent in federal income taxes. According to the Joint Committee on Taxation, a non-partisan group, middle income families average paying 12.8 percent in federal income tax.
http://news.yahoo.com/obama-campaign-offers-romney-5-tax-disclosure-114057169.html
Critics complain that Romney pays too few taxes. At his income level, Romney pays plenty of taxes. Romney made every penny he has. Hence every dime he uses to make investments has already been taxed at wage income rates. Romney pays a lower tax rate than wage earners because a majority of his income comes from investments, which are taxed at a lower rate than wages. Investment income is taxed at a lower rate because, unlike wages, investments are at risk.
If Romney was guilty of income tax evasion, the IRS would already be after him and his campaign for the White House would long be over. The IRS falls within the Department of Treasury. At the behest of the White House, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and the IRS would be all over Romney like a ravenous pack of hyenas.
Romney has released his 2010 tax records and vowed to release his 2011 returns. That matches the number of returns released in 2008 by Senator John McCain when he was the GOP candidate. The number of tax returns released by McCain was never an issue.
This is not Let’s Make A Deal, and David Axelrod is not Monty Hall. For Mitt Romney only a booby prize or worse waits behind curtain number three.
This bait and switch by the White House and their “progressive” co-conspirators is more than simply a distraction from the issues.
Throughout a shadowy, veiled, mystery shrouded political career where his own past has been intentionally concealed, obtaining confidential information about political opponents and distorting that information to smear them has been the signature move of this candidate.
Remember, the current Oval Office occupier is the same clandestine, shadowy figure caught in an open-mic moment with then Russian president Dmitry Medvedev saying that after his re-election he would have “more flexibility”.
Flexibility for…?
Three members of a Russian punk band were found guilty and sentenced to two years in jail for protesting against Russian president Vladamir Putin. The band members were arrested on March 3rd and charged with “hooliganism”. Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, 22, Maria Alyokhina, 24, and Yekaterina Samutsevich, 30 have been in jail ever since.
What kind of flexibility is this secretive, anti-business, hostile to constitutionally protected individual Liberty White House promising to a Russian president who imprisons people for free speech?
Is this flexibility related to the Department of Homeland Security, the Social Security Administration, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Education, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Internal Revenue Service each purchasing multi-thousands of rounds of hollow point bullets?
Could this flexibility include plans to tighten the iron grip of power by imposing Martial Law and suspending elections to ensure he can finish the “fundamental transformation” of America through the imposition of a form of government completely foreign to every principle espoused by its Founding Fathers?
By agreeing to release any additional tax returns, Mitt Romney would be making a crucial mistake. Let the White House re-election campaign go into grand mal seizure. Let them scream like banshees and howl at the moon. Let them cry like babies. Let them wet themselves. Let them posture, threaten, intimidate and bully. You can bet your underwater sub-prime mortgage they will do anything, be it lie, cheat and steal to win this election.
To borrow a phrase from another popular television game show: No deal.
Even though the media portrays it differently, most of us in the Occupy movement are in basic agreement with the Tea Party on a number of items. We believe this is one we can agree on - and ask for your support in Helping to Take back our Country. The Plea Bargain System - An Evil Destroying America? http://youtu.be/VSZZXgevT7k
Politically speaking, Navy SEALs aren’t the safest targets to rail against in a presidential race, but the Obama campaign isn’t hesitating to take down a group of former SEALs who’ve criticized the president’s national security decisions.
On Thursday morning, campaign officials waged a full court press against the Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund, a group of former U.S. Special Forces and intelligence officials accusing President Obama of leaking vital national security secrets and taking too much credit for the killing of Osama bin Laden. When the group launched its anti-Obama media campaign Wednesday, consisting of TV ads and a 22-minute film, it wasn’t clear if Obama officials would avoid a potentially messy confrontation or refute the military veterans publicly. But now the campaign has made clear it views the attacks in the same light as the 2004 John Kerry “Swift Boat” attack ads, which, however misleading, were painfully effective.
“The Republicans are resorting to ‘Swift Boat’ tactics because when it comes to foreign policy and national security, Mitt Romney has offered nothing but reckless rhetoric,” Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt told Reuters’ Mark Hosenball last night. Taking a direct shot at the leaders of OPSEC, an Obama campaign official lambasted the group’s accusations about national security leaks this morning. “No one in this group is in a position to speak with any authority on these issues and on what impact these leaks might have,” said the official, speaking on background, “and it’s clear they’ve resorted to making things up for purely political reasons.”

US president Barack Obama and his wife Michelle paid tribute to Jenny and her colleagues who are credited with saving the lives of some of those injured in the massacre.
PHD student James Holmes has been charged in relation to the shootings which left 12 people dead.
However, her family has now been plunged into a sense of grief of their own. Jenny was out swimming in a lake close to her home when she is believed to have drowned.
Her husband Greg Pinson and five-year-old son Jack are struggling to come to terms with the loss of a "wonderful mother".
Heartbroken
Her mother Brigid, who was unable to fly to Denver for the funeral, added: "I am heartbroken, it is just terrible, terrible. She was such a wonderful person who was just so full of life and a wonderful mother who loved Jack so much," she said.
"I will miss her so much. Her brothers and sisters went over for the funeral and we had a little mass for her here. She could light up a room when she walked into it."
Jenny studied to be a nurse in Denver in the nineties and decided to settle there.
She was a GAA fanatic and founded the Denver Gaels ladies football club.
The club posted an emotional tribute on its website, describing Jenny as a "loving and devoted mother" and a "proud Meath woman".
"Every team has its ups and downs, its wins and losses ... the Pinson and Gallagher families, the Gaels and our Irish community suffered a great loss. Jennifer Gallagher passed on, leaving a wake of sorrow, sadness and loving memories.
"When you met Jenny she brightened up your day and wanted to know how you were doing. Others always came first in the most natural and sincere way.
"In her vocation as a nurse, she cared for those with most acute needs in the burn unit, the ER and most recently was recognized for her work with the Aurora shooting victims by President Obama. We were all very proud of her"
A special memorial mass is due to take place in Duleek on August 26.
