As we are researching him, we, also, are becoming more aware of more attacks that are being made on the U.S. Constitution. <br /><br />It is a matter of priority when choosing what to fight at any given time and right now fighting Mr. Obama's "in your face" behavior has top priority.<br /><br />In case you didn't get it, we'll get back to Bush later. In the meantime, why don't you take some kind of action showing that you are willing to do more than discuss Bush. This country could use people like you, who are passionate, to help save this country. <br /><br />Nothing happens until somebody DOES something.Orly Taitz, DDS Esq.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09032528086295633238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958992492864100930.post-56946454171125584222008-12-22T12:38:00.000-08:002008-12-22T12:38:00.000-08:00So, Ruth, if there is alarm at what Bush has done,...So, Ruth, if there is alarm at what Bush has done, why isn't it fair game to talk about it.

As of this date all acts regarding the Posse Cometus Act and the Insurrection Act of 1807 have reverted back to their original text.<BR/><BR/>Where do you find they have been reverted. Can you provide a link.<BR/><BR/>On October 17, 2006 George Bush took another step toward ending constitutional rule by signing into law two more repressive acts making that day one that will live in even greater infamy than the earlier one on December 7 we're never allowed to forget. He signed into law the Military Commissions Act, known as the "torture authorization act," that does far more damage than that. With little public awareness of what happened in a White House signing ceremony, this act alone ends constitutional and Bill of Rights protections allowing the chief executive the extraordinary right to designate anyone an enemy of the state on his say alone based on no evidence beyond his word that's now the law of the land. It means anyone can be charged with "terrorism" for what Orwell called a "thoughtcrime" making us all "enemy combatants, unsafe from the reach of "Big Brother" residing in the White House with the power of life and death over everyone everywhere in the world.<BR/><BR/>This new law allows the chief executive the right to order anyone arrested, interrogated, tortured and incarcerated in a secret prison anywhere in the world, subject to the justice of a harsh military tribunal with no competent counsel or right of appeal. It goes even further annulling the habeas rights of "everyone" including innocent US citizens falsely accused of terrorism, charged under this law and prosecuted under its provisions as harshly as a verifiable bomb-thrower caught in the act.<BR/><BR/>October 17 was doubly heinous as George Bush also quietly and privately signed into law a revision to the 1807 Insurrection Act. It was hidden in Sections 1076 and 333 of the John Warner Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007. Two hundred years of tradition along with the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act prohibit using federal and National Guard troops for law enforcement inside the country except as allowed by the Constitution or authorized by Congress in times of a national emergency like an insurrection. Under the new law, the chief executive can claim a public emergency, effectively declare martial law and send federal and National Guard troops to the nation's streets to suppress whatever he calls public disorder that may include peaceful demonstrations against wars of aggression and rightful demands for restoration of our constitutional rights now abandoned.<BR/><BR/>The new law authorizes a direct role for the Pentagon including use and transfer of state-of-the-art crowd control weapons and technology to state and local responders. It's intended to militarize them and blur the distinction between those from the Pentagon and local law enforcement agencies - very ominous and clear police state tactical readiness only needing a trigger, sure to come, to make them operational.<BR/><BR/>The Pentagon's Power to Arrest, Torture, and Execute Americans<BR/>The Late, Great American Nation Military Commissions Act of 2006 or 'Our Grandchildren are Going to Hate us!'<BR/><BR/>Breaking News:<BR/>In a stealth maneuver, President Bush has signed into law a provision which, according to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law (1). It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a set of laws that limits the President's ability to deploy troops within the United States. The Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C.331 -335) has historically, along with the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C.1385), helped to enforce strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic law enforcement. With one cloaked swipe of his pen, Bush has neutered those prohibitions.<BR/><BR/>Public Law 109-364, or the "John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007" (H.R.5122) (2), which was signed by the commander in chief on October 17th, 2006, in a private Oval Office ceremony, allows the President to declare a "public emergency" and station troops anywhere in America and take control of state-based National Guard units, which have always been under the purview of the state governors, without the consent of the governor or local authorities, in order to "suppress public disorder."<BR/><BR/>"Section 1076 of the massive Authorization Act, which grants the Pentagon another $500-plus-billion for its ill-advised adventures, is entitled, "Use of the Armed Forces in Major Public Emergencies." Section 333, "Major public emergencies; interference with State and Federal law" states that "the President may employ the armed forces, including the National Guard in Federal service, to restore public order and enforce the laws of the United States when, as a result of a natural disaster, epidemic, or other serious public health emergency, terrorist attack or incident, or other condition in any State or possession of the United States, the President determines that domestic violence has occurred to such an extent that the constituted authorities of the State or possession are incapable of ("refuse" or "fail" in) maintaining public order, "in order to suppress, in any State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy."<BR/><BR/>Bush now has absolute power over all armed troops within the country, a state of affairs which the constitution purposely tried to prevent. The administration’s dream of militarizing the country under the sole authority of the executive has now been achieved although the public still has no idea that a coup that has taken place. Prison planet is not coming, it is Now setup and Here.<BR/><BR/>http://www.netctr.com/milcommact.html<BR/><BR/><BR/>Give proof please of where it was reverted so people can relax a little.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958992492864100930.post-43656165893514425162008-12-21T07:40:00.000-08:002008-12-21T07:40:00.000-08:00As Shakespeare wrote for his Henry IV, Part II (15...As Shakespeare wrote for his Henry IV, Part II (1597): "Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown" (of a tyrant), reference: footnotes #8 + 9 over at wikipedia for The Sword of Damocles, just mentioned by the woman with Moe Howard's pie hanging over her head from the ceiling in The Three Stooges' "Half-Wits Holiday" (1947) that I just saw on TV again this morning on Ch. 38 (cable Channel 12 here) WSBK-TV Boston @ 9:47 AM.MrTidemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01940564039740281541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958992492864100930.post-15394724493542558932008-12-21T04:02:00.000-08:002008-12-21T04:02:00.000-08:00wow !!!!!!!!!!! see how they make a distinction :n...wow !!!!!!!!!!! see how they make a distinction :<BR/>natural born Citizen [or a Citizen of the United States] <BR/><BR/>The Constitution of the Confederate States of America.<BR/><BR/>In framing the Constitution of the Confederate States, the authors adopted, with numerous elisions and additions, the language of the Constitution of the United States, and followed the same order of arrangement of articles and sections.
