 | Peter DeFazio on The Alex Jones Show_3/19/08"PDD 51" http://www.infowars.com/ President Bush's post-terror attack martial law plan is so shocking that even sitting members of Congress and Homeland Security officials are barred from viewing it, another example of executive über alles and a chilling portent of what is to come as constant reminders of the inevitability of terror attacks reverberate. Congressman Peter DeFazio (D - OR) was asked by his constituents to see what was contained within the classified portion of the White House's plan for operating the government after a terrorist attack. Since DeFazio also sits on the Homeland Security Committee and has clearance to view classified material, the request would have appeared to be routine, but the Congressman was unceremoniously denied all access to view the documents, and the White House wouldn't even give an excuse as to why he was barred. "I just can't believe they're going to deny a member of Congress the right of reviewing how they plan to conduct the government of the United States after a significant terrorist attack," DeFazio told the Oregonian on Friday. "We're talking about the continuity of the government of the United States of America," DeFazio says. "I would think that would be relevant to any member of Congress, let alone a member of the Homeland Security Committee." "Maybe the people who think there's a conspiracy out there are right," DeFazio concluded. The article also quotes Norm Ornstein, a legal scholar who studies government continuity at the conservative American Enterprise Institute, who told the paper he "cannot think of one good reason" to deny access to a member of Congress who serves on the Homeland Security Committee. "I find it inexplicable and probably reflective of the usual, knee-jerk overextension of executive power that we see from this White House," Ornstein said. The only plausible reason DeFazio was barred access to the documents is that the plans for a post-terror attack continuity of government scenario are so abhorrent that to reveal their true nature would cause a public outcry and lead to a major repeal of what is contained in the documents. What we already about Bush's recent spate of executive orders, and in particular PDD 51, is bad enough - the provisions outline preparations for the implementation of open martial law in the event of a declared national emergency. New legislation signed on May 9, 2007, declares that in the event of a "catastrophic event", the President can take total control over the government and the country, bypassing all other levels of government at the state, federal, local, territorial and tribal levels, and thus ensuring total unprecedented dictatorial power. It is important to understand that, although these powers have been on the books for previous presidents, Bush is the first to openly brag of the fact that he will utilize them and officially become the supreme emperor of the United States in the aftermath of a catastrophe that the government itself has said will happen on innumerable occasions. According to columnist and author Jerome Corsi, the power grab assures that "The president can declare to the office of the presidency powers usually assumed by dictators to direct any and all government and business activities until the emergency is declared over." Also in May, it was reported that a high-level group of government and military officials has been quietly preparing an emergency survival program named "The Day After," which would effectively end civil liberties and implement a system of martial law in the event of a catastrophic attack on a U.S. city. Last year we also exposed the existence of a nationwide FEMA program which is training Pastors and other religious representatives to become secret police enforcers who teach their congregations to "obey the government" in preparation for a declaration of martial law, property and firearm seizures, and forced relocation. The documents that Congressman DeFazio was blocked from seeing likely interlock with both these programs and detail the overarching agenda to effectively nullify what's left of the U.S. Constitution and firmly ensconce George W. Bush as a supreme dictator. Only by putting enough pressure on the media and in turn the White House to be transparent about what the secret martial law provisions are can we lead an effort to repeal them before the next terror attack, whether real or manufactured, takes place. |
 | Nation of Aztlan Disturbing video portrays Mecha's agenda and the illegal invasion that is occuring in the U.S. The background visuals on the "Aztlan" video were taken in Los Angeles at the supposedly 500,000 person demonstration on March 25, 2006. But the speeches by Jose Angel Gutierrez, Fabian Nunez, Herman Baca, Armando Navarro, were made in 1995 at a MECHA conference at the University of California, Riverside after the passage of Proposition 187. The remarks on the video by Antonio Villaraigosa, now the Mayor of Los Angeles, were made at a Southwest Voter's Registration Project meeting in June of 1997. At that time Villaraigosa was the California State Assembly Majority Leader. All of the people whose pictures was superimposed on the visuals, attended the Los Angeles Demonstration in 2006. Newspaper reports confirm that Villaraigosa and Fabian Nunez attended the March 2006 demonstration. On that occasion the mayor said, for example, "I welcome you the immigrants, who built this city. God bless you." Fabian Nunez, now the California Assembly Speaker also made a speech. There was also a Latino Forum on January 12, 2006 in San Bernadino, California where Herman Baca, Armando Navarro and others, including a member of Congress, Joe Baca and his son a California Assemblyman, Joe Baca Jr., made speeches. These are the most racist and anti-American speeches imaginable delivered by individuals who are now a mayor, a members of Congress, and the state Assembly, the top leaders in the California state House, the head of the California Democratic Party, Art Torres, and full professor at the University of California. The acronym MEChA stands for "Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan." or "Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan." MEChA is an Hispanic separatist organization that encourages anti-American activities and civil disobedience. The radical members of MEChA who refer to themselves as "Mechistas," romanticize Mexican claims to the "lost Territories" of the Southwestern United States -- a Chicano country called Aztlan. In its national constitution, MEChA calls for self-determination by its members to liberate Aztlan. MEChA's national constitution starts out: "Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlán must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for the self-determination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán." These anti-American "Mechistas" live with the false illusion that they are being racially discriminated against because they are Latinos while totally dismissing the idea that maybe it is their ideology that is being discriminated against. At the MEChA National Conference on March 15 - 18, 2001, the official "MEChA Philosophy" was ratified. An excerpt from the document states: "as Mechistas, we vow to work for the liberation of Aztlan." The MEChA Clubs on each of the Santa Barbara High School campuses are not the only ones. MEChA groups exist on 90 percent of the public high school, college and university campuses in the Southwestern United States. |
 | Roy Blunt: Charlie Rangel Equal To All GOP Corruption On C-SPAN's Newsmakers Mary Ann Akers asks Roy Blunt about telling Republican members of Congress that it's okay to run against the Republican brand, and about members like Rick Renzi, John Doolittle, Jerry Weller and Ted Stevens who are all potentially in a lot of trouble and why they haven't been censured by the Ethics Committee. Blunt responds with saying that basically voters are too stupid to really understand all those crazy specifics of the Republican corruption and they've said they're innocent so of course they must be, he's happy voters are buying into their latest talking point on Off-shore drilling instead of paying attention how corrupt so many of them are, and now that they've got one more corrupt Democrat besides Jefferson in Charlie Rangel to go after he uses that as an excuse to ignore responding to what the members of the GOP did that the reporter was asking about. Any member of Congress that's been there too long is probably corrupt in some way shape or form, but the level of corruption with the GOP that Blunt is giving a pass on, and comparing the scandals that Stevens and others are accused of to Rangel getting a discount on an apartment is really laughable. All of it needs to stop but using the second lousy Democrat they could find to hammer on compared to the dozens and dozens of extremely corrupt GOP Congressman they cover for daily is ridiculous. |

 | More Phony Lies (and quotes) From Rush Limbaugh.. UPDATE: Tell Congress to Dump Rush http://ga4.org/campaign/dumprush Today, General Wes Clark is asking you to join 34,118 other Americans and email Congress urging them to take Rush Limbaugh off Armed Forces Radio. Last week, Rush Limbaugh labeled American servicemembers who support an end to the war in Iraq "phony soldiers." We're going directly to Congress to take him off the Armed Forces Radio airwaves. Elected officials in Congress have the power to prevent Limbaugh from using taxpayers' money to disrespect and censure the voices of our soldiers. http://ga4.org/campaign/dumprush Join us and hold Rush Limbaugh accountable for his offensive and outrageous comments -- tell your member of Congress to Dump Rush From Armed Forces Radio today! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why I do not like Rush Limbaugh. He's a racist... racist n. 1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. He's a bigot... bigot n. One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ He's a demagogue... demagogue 1. A leader who obtains power by means of impassioned appeals to the emotions and prejudices of the populace. SOME OF RUSH LIMBAUGH'S BIGOTRY, RACISM AND DEMAGOGUERY AT WORK VIA HIS QUOTES: ON AIDS "And one of the things that -- that the -- the AIDS activists said regularly back then was, oh, this is only a matter of time before it spreads to the heterosexual community. It's only a matter of time. And they used that as -- as one of the weapons to try to get people like Reagan to start talking about it from their standpoint. And of course it -- it hasn't. It -- it didn't, and it hasn't, other than in Africa, and in Africa it is -- it is being spread not just by -- it -- it -- it's promiscuity that -- that -- that spreads this, if you want to know the truth. It's promiscuity. ON BLACKS: "Why should Blacks be heard? They're 12% of the population. Who the hell cares." -Rush Limbaugh 'take that bone out of your nose and call me back.' Rush Limbaugh ON DRUG ABUSE: "And we have laws against selling drugs, pushing drugs, using drugs, importing drugs. And the laws are good because we know what happens to people in societies and neighborhoods which become consumed by them. And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up." "When you strip it all away, Jerry Garcia (former Grateful Dead guitarist) destroyed his life on drugs. And yet he's being honored, like some godlike figure. Our priorities are out of whack, folks." (well ditto heads? I bet you still love this drug addicted, law-breaking drug freek. Ever hear of 'just say no' or how by buying drugs you are supporting Osama?) ON FEMINISM: "Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society." ON IRAQI PRISON ABUSE: Exactly. Exactly my point! This is no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation and we're going to ruin people's lives over it and we're going to hamper our military effort, and then we are going to really hammer them because they had a good time. You know, these people are being fired at every day. I'm talking about people having a good time, these people, you ever heard of emotional release? You of heard of need to blow some steam off? On Jesse Jackson... 'have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson? - Rush Limbaugh On Mexicans... If we are going to start rewarding no skills and stupid people-- I'm serious, let the unskilled jobs that take absolutely no knowledge whatsoever to do--let the stupid and unskilled Mexicans do that work." On Michael J. Fox (Parkinson's disease) "He is exaggerating the effects of the disease. He's moving all around and shaking and it's purely an act. . . . This is really shameless of Michael J. Fox. Either he didn't take his medication or he's acting. This is the only time I've ever seen Michael J. Fox portray any of the symptoms of the disease he has. He can barely control himself." - Rush Limbaugh Source: Rush's Radio Show 10-24-06 AND SO MANY MORE, TOO NUMEROUS TO ADD HERE. |
