AMERICA UNDER ATTACK - A DIRE WARNING

September 11, 2000 was the least of our worries. The greatest threat to our nation, to our freedoms, to our very Constitution is not coming from foreign enemies, it is coming from our own government.

Following the September 11, attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, American citizens came under attack from our own government through the passage of the "Patriot Act", which became law on October 26, 2000 after being rushed through Congress with lightening speed. the 342 page bill was shoved through Congress with absolutely no debate in committee, no public hearings and little if any floor debate, and in the House, a special procedure was invoked to ban any amendments to the bill (are you seeing a pattern here?). Folks, the fix was in. To put it bluntly, this Act sacrificed our rights and freedoms all in the name of national security, and very few members of Congress even read the contents of the bill.

The Patriot Act went far beyond any common sense provisions of protecting the country from terrorist attacks. While posing a threat to our civil liberties, the Patriot Act had no obvious effect on those who helped perpetrate the 9/11 attacks. The so-called measures that were supposedly aimed to prevent terrorist attacks struck only at our Constitution, and before any one starts blaming G.W. Bush, let me remind you that ALL of the elements that make up the Patriot Act, had already been developed by the Clinton administration and were just waiting for the right moment, the right set of circumstances to be implemented, and that moment came on the morning of September 11, 2000. If you really want to be honest, if you really want to face the truth, the whole Patriot Act and Department of Homeland Security has far less to do with keeping America safe as it does with controlling the American people.

How often in my blog posts have I tried to educate the public that it made no difference what-so-ever which political party controlled the White House or the Congress, because both parties have been complicit in the slow shredding of the Constitution and trampling on our rights and freedoms, and it has been going on since 1913 under the administration of Woodrow Wilson, and it has continued under each succeeding administration, but it really started to escalate under the Clinton administration, and it snowballed under the G.W. Bush administration (has anyone ever wondered why it is that George H. Bush and Bill Clinton are so chummy?). Now with Obama in the White House, it is going lightening fast. The Patriot Act unconstitutionally consolidated vast amounts of power in the executive branch of the government, in essence making the president a supreme leader, and we let it happen. We slept as our Constitutional Republic was stolen from us, right under our noses.

People, think long and hard about what I am saying. Everything that you see happening today was planned years ago, and that makes every president, every member of Congress and every Supreme Court Justice complicit in acts of TREASON.

The Patriot Act is a direct infringement on our First Amendment Rights of freedom of speech, freedom of religion. It infringes on our Second Amendment Right to keep and bear arms, and as I am writing this, the Obama administration is in the process of drawing up even more draconian and unconstitutional gun control legislation that will prevent millions of law abiding Americans from ever owning a fire arm. And this Act also infringes on our Fourth Amendment Right to privacy.

The Patriot Act has created a whole new federal crime, called "domestic terrorism" which gives law enforcement broad discretion as to what constitutes "acts dangerous to human life." Such vagueness could and has led many federal officials to feel justified in treating citizens engaged in legitimate political dissent as criminals. Don't think for one minute that what is taking place in Iran, the beatings and killings of peaceful protesters, can't or won't happen here (Remember Kent State?). Don't forget that memo that came out of the Department of Homeland Security that advised law enforcement as to who to watch out for as possible terrorists. That memo was no mistake.

Also, the 2010 census will be coming up real soon and there are questions on it that are none of the governments business and have nothing to do with the census, but the federal government says that if we don't answer them we will face a $5,000.00 fine. Remember also that Obama ordered the census be taken over by the White House, and encase you may not know it, in the 1940's, the federal government illegally used census information to "round up" innocent Japaneses/American citizens and inter them in concentration camps.

There are too many brain dead Americans who have absolutely no concern about the government's illegal and unconstitutional expansion of power to curtail our liberties, saying, "As long as I am not a terrorist, I have nothing to worry about." How wrong they are because the Patriot Act is a threat to every law-abiding American citizen, and I believe that we are being set up to undergo the full horrors of this Act, which is why I believe Obama is in a mad rush to push through every single one of his programs by the end of his first year in office. The Obama administration's blatant powers grab is in it self frightening enough, but couple it with the vast amount of anti-terrorism tools that the Patriot Act puts at his disposal, is an omen of wholesale suspension of our civil liberties and Constitutional rights that will go far beyond those who are truly terrorists.

People, please, for God's sake, WAKE UP! OPEN YOUR EYES! We are being set up for a real horror show, and we had better do something NOW before it is too late!

CONSIDER YOURSELVES WARNED!
