The U.S. Constitution

September 2016

On Its 229th Birthday, Our Constitution Hangs by a Thread: On this day in 1787, the founders of this nation finished writing a Constitution that in the intervening 229 years has helped make America the greatest nation on earth. When voters go to the polls on Nov. 8, the American people will decide whether that document will continue to serve as the Supreme Law of the Land. See Washington's Farewell Address, 1796

 Court Strikes down School’s Ban on the Constitution, Bible Tracts: "A federal judge today overturned the punishment of an Everett high school senior who had been suspended for handing out Christian tracts....

     "The rule barred students from distributing copies of the Constitution or the gospel tracts favored by plaintiff Michael Leal. ...the court ordered that Leal’s suspensions be expunged. Meanwhile, the court left in place three other aspects of the school policies that PJI attorneys also challenged." Washington's Farewell Address, 1796

Reid: ‘Border is Secure’: "Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Tuesday asserted the southern border is secure despite the massive surge of illegal minors from Central America that has overwhelmed federal agencies." See Washington's Farewell Address, 1796

 

Resistance Builds: Towns All Over the Country Resist Alien Dumping...: "The ongoing, facilitated-by-government illegal alien invasion continues, but on the bright side, there is growing awareness and more open resistance among ordinary Americans." See The Transformation of America

Freedom of Worship’s Assault on Freedom of Religion: "Until very recently, the West saw religious liberty as a weight-bearing pillar of human freedom. Thus, the very first clause of the First Amendment (1789) states, 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...' Freedom of religion means the right to live according to one’s own faith, that is, to 'manifest' our religion or belief in practice, both 'in public or private,' without interference from the state. ...

     "If the freedom of worship assault against freedom of religion succeeds, creed-motivated philanthropic and service organizations such as the Salvation Army... will be forced to choose between acting contrary to their faith and closing their doors. That would not only make our society far less free, but would materially harm the millions of men, women, and children whose lives are immeasurably benefited by faithful people practicing their religion in the public square." See The Transformation of America

U.S. military insignia no longer allowed on Bibles: "...the military branches have revoked their prior authorization to use the official service emblems on the Soldier's Bible, Sailor's Bible, Marine's Bible and Airman's Bible. King says permission to use the insignia was granted in 2003, but withdrawn last year. ...Mikey Weinstein says his Military Religious Freedom Foundation had threatened to sue over what it regarded as an unconstitutional violation of the separation of church and state." See Francis Schaeffer's explanation of the unconstitutional "separation of Church and state" below:

"Foundations for Faith and Freedom" [by Francis Schaeffer]: "When the First Amendment was passed it only had two purposes... [First] there would be no established, national church for the united thirteen states. ...The second purpose of the First Amendment was the very opposite from what is being made of it today. It states expressly that government should not impede or interfere with the free practice of religion. As Justice Douglas wrote...in 1944: 'The First Amendment has a dual aspect. It not only 'forestalls compulsion by law of the acceptance of any creed or the practice of any form of worship' but also 'safeguards the free exercise of the chosen form of religion.'

     "Today 'the separation of church and state' in America is used to silence the church. When Christians speak out on issues, the hue and cry from the humanist state and media is that Christians, and all religions, are prohibited from speaking since there is a separation of church and state. The way the concept is used today is totally reversed from the original intent. ... The consequence of the acceptance of this [distorted new] doctrine leads to the removal of religion as an influence in civil government." See Purging the Memory of Our Christian Roots

Leftist Law Professor Calls Constitution ‘Imbecilic’: "Professor Levinson believes that our Constitution itself is the source of what he characterizes as the 'dysfunctional, even pathological' American political system. The learned professor would do away with our system of 'separation of powers' and 'checks and balances' altogether."

The Constitution.  Are we going to let them 'Shred the Constitution?'  "...the cover of [Time magazine's] new July 4 issue, which features the U.S. Constitution going through a paper shredder and asks if the document still matters....[On June 19] journalist Fareed Zakaria of CNN and Time magazine stated that 'we could use the ideas of social media that were actually invented in this country to suggest a set of amendments to modernize the constitution....'

     "Whether it is Time magazine trying to chip away at our most revered principles, embodied in our timeless document, or Mr. GPS suggesting a backdoor encroachment to give legitimacy to the 'living Constitution' agenda, or the president and Congress ignoring their constitutional limits of power, they are all undermining the rule of law in the U.S. They want you to buy into the idea that our founding document is just a 'very old' list of suggestions and that everything is on the table." See Purging the Memory of Our Christian Roots

Fourth of July? Is Democracy Viable? "While the convention that was writing the Constitution of the United States was still in session, a lady asked Benjamin Franklin what the delegation was creating. 'A republic, madam,' he said, 'if you can keep it.'

     "In the middle of the next century, Abraham Lincoln still posed it as a question whether 'government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth.' Years earlier, Lincoln had warned of the dangers to a free society from its own designing power-seekers -- and how only the vigilance, wisdom and dedication of the public could preserve their freedom. But, today, few people seem to see such dangers....

     "The ease with which people with wealth can ship it overseas electronically, or put it in tax shelters at home, means that raising the tax rate on wealthy people is not going to bring in the kind of tax revenue that would enable wealth redistribution to provide the bonanza that some people are expecting."

George Soros assault on U.S. Constitution: "At least three White House advisers and officials, including President Obama's regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein, have ties to an effort funded by billionaire George Soros to push for a new, 'progressive' U.S. Constitution....

     "...in April 2005, Sunstein opened up a conference at Yale Law School entitled, 'The Constitution in 2020,' which sought to change the nature and interpretation of the Constitution by that year. That event was sponsored by Soros' Open Society Institute as well as by the Center for American Progress, which is led by John Podesta....Podesta's Center is said to be highly influential in helping to craft White House policy." See We the People

 

"One World Government Obama" by Ben Stein (March 22, 2011) "...wasn't that The Constitution of the United States of America that we just laid to rest this weekend? It was buried in a private ceremony by Mr. Barack Obama of Chicago as he silently signed America on to the One World Government some of us have been worried about for decades.
     "Look at it this way: Where did Mr. Obama get the authority to commit United States forces to war in Libya? There was no declaration of war. There was no authorizing resolution by Congress allowing money to be spent on a war against Col. Gaddafi. As far as I know, there was no meeting of Mr. Obama and top leaders of Congress to discuss the subject in even rough form, let alone detail. There was no lengthy buildup in which the Congress was "allowed" to express the people's opinion on whether we want to be in a third concurrent war.
     "There was just a vote by the United Nations Security Council, a very far from unanimous vote, and suddenly, the President's Secretary of State, Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton, solemnly announced that we were at war.
     "But, when did we amend the Constitution to declare that the United Nations had control over our military? When did we abolish the part of the Constitution that said Congress had the right to declare war? Now, I well know that in recent postwar conflicts, we don't have declarations of war. But we have Congressional debates. We have funding votes. We have a sense of the Congress or some kind of resolution.
     "This time, zip. ... Just France and the U.K. and Norway saying that it's time to go to war.... And off Mr. and Mrs. Obama go to a South American "fact finding" trip for the POTUS and a fun sightseeing junket for the Obama girls.
     "Libya and Col. Gaddafi were and are no threat to the United States. It is sad and cruel that the Gaddafi regime was murdering its own civilians, but so do many governments all across the world, including North Korea, Iran....
     "Are we willing to toss overboard the Constitution for the writ of the United Nations? I guess so. Sad days."

 

Pew Forum study shows growing number of Americans say Obama is a Muslim, not a Christian as he claimed: "A new national survey by the Pew Research Center finds that nearly one-in-five Americans (18%) now say Obama is a Muslim, up from 11% in March 2009. Only about one-third of adults (34%) say Obama is a Christian, down sharply from 48% in 2009." See Obama's Shifting Faith and Loyalties

Obama Leads SEIU Chant After Vowing to Paint the Nation Purple [Obama speech on video]: "Do they have a track record of voting the RIGHT way -- but also helping you organize to build more and more power?...

     "I come from an organizing background.... I've been working with SEIU before I was elected to anything... When I was a community organizer...SEIU local 880 and myself we organized people to make sure that home care workers had basic rights to organize. ... we organized voting registration drives. That's how we built political power on the south side of Chicago... and now the time has come for us to do it all across this country.... We are going to point the nation purple with SEIU.... SEIU, I'm glad you are with me. Let's together change the country!"

The State of the Nation: I am afraid: (By John W. Whitehead) "Governmental tentacles now invade virtually every facet of our lives, with agents of the government listening in on our telephone calls and reading our emails....Fusion centers--data collecting agencies spread throughout the country, aided by the National Security Agency--constantly monitor our communications, everything from our internet activity and web searches to text messages, phone calls and emails....

     "Our national debt is more than $12 trillion (which translates to more than $110,000 per taxpayer), and is expected to nearly double to $20 trillion by 2015....America's place in the world is also undergoing a drastic shift, with China slated to emerge as the top economy over the next decade....
     "As national borders dissolve in the face of spreading globalization, the likelihood increases that our Constitution, which is the supreme law of America, will be subverted in favor of international laws. ...we no longer have a sense of right and wrong..." See God's Warnings for our Times

Stunner! Supremes to give eligibility case another look: "In a stunning move, the U.S. Supreme Court has scheduled another 'conference' on a legal challenge to Barack Obama's eligibility to occupy the Oval Office, but officials there are not answering questions about whether two justices given their jobs by Obama will participate....

    "'The real question here is one of getting members of the judiciary to take seriously the oath that they swore to protect and preserve the Constitution,' Hemenway wrote in his petition for rehearing. 'To continue to avoid the issue will destroy the constitutional rule of law basis of our legal system..." See Video: Not Natural Born

Hawaii official now swears: No Obama birth certificate: "Former Hawaii elections clerk Tim Adams has now signed an affidavit swearing he was told by his supervisors in Hawaii that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Barack Obama Jr. in Hawaii and that neither Queens Medical Center nor Kapi'olani Medical Center in Honolulu had any record of Obama having been born in their medical facilities." See Video: Not Natural Born

Obama‘s ’Equity, Human Dignity, Fairness, and Distributive Impacts’ Exec. Order: "The op-ed announced a new executive order that would root out 'dumb' and 'outdated' regulations that 'stifle job creation and make our economy less competitive.' But what if the order was riddled with social justice language?

     "It is. What many don’t know, is that the order now allows agencies, in weighing costs and benefits for example, to consider 'equity, human dignity, fairness and distributive impacts,' and each agency must 'select, in choosing among alternative regulatory approaches, those approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety, and other advantages; distributive impacts; and equity).'[

      "Translation: Reexamine regulations and choose replacements that adhere to, as much as possible, social justice principles such as 'distribution' and 'equity."'  See Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals

Radical-in-Chief [Quoting Stanley Kurtz, a Senior Fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center]: "The reason few understand the truth about Obama’s socialism is that the community organizers who trained Obama and sponsored his political career intentionally keep their socialism secret.... Obama’s organizing models and mentors–some of the most influential socialists in the country–intentionally adopted a strategy of stealth....Obama has mastered their techniques....

     "I traveled across the country, searching for archives preserving the papers of the community organizations and socialist groups to which Obama was connected. ... Various socialist groups maintained semi-public/semi-private publications called 'discussion bulletins,' in which they would air their disagreements and reveal their strategies....

      "Obama was a socialist even before he reached Columbia. But it was in April of 1983, in his senior year, that Obama walked into an off-campus Socialist Scholars Conference. That conference changed the future president’s life and gave him a program he’s been following for his entire political career.... It was in the early eighties that American socialists turned in force to community organizing as a long-term strategy for transforming American society."

Michelle Obama: "...prayer circles...keeping the spirits clean around us": "I think we're all proud of Barak and his accomplishment.... It means all the world to us to know that there are prayer circles out there and people who are keeping the spirits clean around us." See Obama's Shifting Faith

          Note: What does Michelle Obama mean by "keeping the spirits clean around us"? Such mystical power fits into spiritism or even Santeria, but not Christianity.

The doctor, the president and the birth certificate: "What's wrong with the following picture? A decorated Army flight surgeon, after 18 years of service including year-long tours in Honduras, Bosnia and Afghanistan, now risks his career and faces almost certain court-martial and imprisonment. Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin claims there's a serious conflict between adhering to his military oath and obeying deployment orders coming down the existing chain of command with Barack Obama at the top – since the president's constitutional eligibility to be commander in chief has never been documented....

      "Lakin is acting 'exactly' as 'proper training dictates,' confirms retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Thomas G. McInerney....

      "...like Lakin, 3 out of 5 Americans ... are not convinced Barack Obama was born in Hawaii as he has long claimed. The Constitution requires in Article 2 Section 1 that every president be a 'natural born citizen.'

      "So, now this veteran Army doctor...is respectfully telling the military tribunal judging him that he needs for Obama or his representatives to prove that the president is occupying his office constitutionally. In simple terms, Col. Lakin wants to see Obama's birth certificate....Not the computer-generated summary document that almost everyone in the media mindlessly and ignorantly refers to as 'Obama's birth certificate,' but the actual document... showing the hospital of birth (to date, no hospital on earth officially claims Obama was born there), the attending physician or midwife....

      "For Obama... to produce the documentation proving his eligibility to be commander in chief is critical not just to Lakin's defense, said McInerney, but to the preservation of the nation itself."

 [Supreme Court] get case against 'putative' President Obama Petition: "A new court filing that returns the issue of Barack Obama's eligibility to the U.S. Supreme Court warns that unless the judiciary makes a definitive decision in the dispute, it will be the same as allowing the political interests in the United States to amend the U.S. Constitution at will.... Named as defendants are Barack Hussein Obama II, the U.S., Congress, the Senate, the House of Representatives, former Vice President Dick Cheney and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi....

     "Justice Clarence Thomas, in an appearance before Congress, previously said the court has been 'evading' the Obama eligibility issue."

 Obama makes four recess appointments: "The most contentious of the appointments is Maria del Carmen Aponte, the administration's pick for ambassador to El Salvador. Senate Republicans questioned her... about a former romantic relationship with a Cuban national connected to Cuban intelligence....

     "Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) and other Republicans later placed a hold on Aponte's nomination as they sought additional information about her background. 'The White House continued to deny senators information...' Aponte... previously ran the Puerto Rican Federal Affairs Administration; and sat on the boards of the National Council of La Raza..."

Obama’s Radical Guests: "...the guest list [at last week’s White House Ramadan dinner] gives some insight into what Obama really believes. ...two 'community' leaders with a radical Islamic agenda stand out. The first was Dr. Ingrid Mattson, president of the Islamic Society of North America....The second radical Islamic... guest was Salam Al-Marayati, a co-founder and director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council. ...he said that: When Patrick Henry said, ‘Give me liberty or give me death,’ that statement epitomized jihad [Islamic holy war].....Al-Marayati’s Muslim Public Affairs Council has issued policy papers which argue for the removal of Hezbollah and Hamas from U.S. terrorist designations." Media-made "Foes" and Deceptive "Friends"

Obama vs. the States: "...there’s another battle brewing, one that we haven’t seen the likes of for one hundred and fifty years: the fight for states’ rights....As states like Texas continue to flex their rediscovered muscle, it will be harder and harder to dismiss opposition to the Obama agenda as a fringe reaction by few extremist, racist and probably violent right-wing nuts...."

Guess what part of the Constitution goes next! "Democrats have found yet another way to circumvent the U.S. Constitution: Bypass the Electoral College and elect a president by popular vote without first passing an amendment to the founding document...'If the National Public Vote movement succeeds...the president might be chosen by the popular vote winner in 10 or 11 of the most populous states.'"

     In these times of voter fraud and double-counting, a popular vote could easily be manipulated. Delaying military votes is only one of many ways to corrupt the results. See Unalienable Rights?

Look whose votes won't be counted ... Obama's Justice Department allegedly ignoring new laws designed to safeguard ballot accuracy: "In the wake of the Department of Justice's New Black Panther Party scandal, a second former DOJ attorney has now come forward, blasting the department for failing to protect American soldiers' right to vote. ..the DOJ's Voting Section is ignoring the new laws and may allow thousands of ballots to slip through the cracks uncounted in November."

Ruined By Red Tape: "Rules, rules, and more rules. President Obama’s fiscal year 2011 budget calls for a $59 billion regulatory explosion...with a federal phalanx of almost 284,000 regulators....This regulatory chokehold will likely bind the economy with red tape for decades to come." See From Freedom to Servitude - Part 3: Deceit, Delusion and the Destruction of America

Obama Wants to Jail Americans with New Law: "Sparking the concern of Russian diplomats over the growing totalitarian bent of the Obama government is the planned reintroduction of what these reports call one of the most draconian laws ever introduced in a free society that is titled “The Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act.” First introduced in the US Congress in 2007... this new law passed the US House of Representatives by a secretive voice vote, but failed to pass the US Senate... [It] was embraced by Obama who became the first American President to name his own citizens as a threat to his Nations security....[It supposedly] makes the problem of home-grown terrorists a top priority because an increasing number of individuals in the US have become 'captivated by extremist ideology or causes.'

      "The Times of London is further reporting that Obama’s new National Security Strategy 'officially' ends America’s 'War on Terror' in what they call 'a sweeping repudiation of the Bush doctrine of pre-emptive military strikes.'” 

Video: Obama has criminal ties to Kenya? Indirectly Responsible for Kenyan deaths?  [Obama has] "undermined US relationships with a strong anti-terrorism ally in an African region where Al Quada operates. In 2006...

Hawaii elections clerk: Obama not born here -- Official who oversaw ballots in 2008 race says hospital birth certificate non-existent: "A college instructor who worked as a senior elections clerk for the city and county of Honolulu in 2008 is making the stunning claim Barack Obama was definitely not born in Hawaii as the White House maintains, and that a long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Obama does not even exist.... 'I was informed by my boss that we did not have a birth record [for Obama].'... At the time, there were conflicting reports that Obama had been born at the Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu, as well as the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children across town. So Adams says his office checked with both facilities."  Election 2008

FBI destroyed file on Obama's grandfather: "In response to a Freedom of Information Act request, the FBI has formally acknowledged a file existed on President Barack Obama's grandfather, Stanley Armour Dunham, that was destroyed May 1, 1997. The FBI previously released some 600 pages of the FBI file of Frank Marshall Davis, the Chicago-based journalist and poet who as a member of the Communist Party USA retired in Hawaii and befriended Dunham. Obama frequently sought advice from Davis during the future president's elementary and high school years." See Rules for Radicals

U.S. Will Pay $2.6 Million to Train Chinese Prostitutes to Drink Responsibly on the Job: "The National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAA), a part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will pay $2.6 million in U.S. tax dollars to train Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly on the job. The grant, made last November, refers to prostitutes as 'female sex workers'--or FSW--and their handlers as 'gatekeepers.'" See Moral Corruption

No wonder America has become a global borrower rather than a global lender:

America's suicide attempt: "'Civilizations die from suicide, not murder,' said the great historian Arnold Toynbee. Under President Obama, America is losing its superpower status..... Once the world's largest creditor, we have become the greatest debtor nation." God's Warnings for our Times

"....You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. ...if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God.
    “But... if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God.... the Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies.... The Lord will strike you... with tumors, with the scab, and with the itch.... The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower.... He shall lend to you, but you shall not lend to him..." Deuteronomy 28:1-63

Obama adviser: Amnesty to ensure 'progressive' rule -- 'Imagine 8 million new voters who care about our issues?' "Granting citizenship to millions of illegal immigrants would expand the 'progressive' electorate and help ensure a 'progressive' governing coalition for the long term, declared a recent adviser to President Obama whose union group is among the most frequent visitors to the White House. 'We reform the immigration laws, it puts 12 million people on the path to citizenship and eventually voters,' stated Eliseo Medina, international executive vice-president of Service Employees International Union, or SEIU....

     "Medina said that during the presidential election in November 2008, Latinos and immigrants 'voted overwhelmingly for progressive candidates.'... 'We will be creating a governing coalition for the long term, not just for an election cycle.'... The SEIU is closely linked to the controversial Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN."
