FOUR BROKERS OF APOCALYPSE NEED TO STARVE!!

By JACK VENRICK

The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse:
http://www.allposters.com/-sp/Four-Horsemen-of-the-Apocalypse-Posters_i1099834_.htm
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse Should Be Starving To Death - Not The Natural Born Sovereign & Free Citizens
This perspective needs to be repeated over and over until we stop encouraging the continuance of an unnecessary
system of taxing ourselves to death thereby perpetuating an unecessary feudal & barbaric model.
Do not promote ANY FORM of taxes including "REFORM" upon the natural born, sovereign and free.
You may as well promote blood letting using leaches.
We do not want "reform", we want a complete end to this embezzlement
Forced & misapplied & "reformed" taxes of any form are destructive and unnecessary
Forced deceptive taxes are repugnant to & conflict with, the founding & fundamental laws of the land
Forced tax taking of private property including our wages are CRIMES NOT "taxes"
Tax "reform" is ONLY reformed embezzlement
"fair tax", VAT tax, "flat tax", consumption tax are misapplied indirect taxes directly on the people
The organizations promoting this tax taking "reformation" are lining their pockets with millions
by those who have swallowed "tax reform" hook, line and sinker.
"Americans for Fair Taxation" solicits donations using an ex Federal Reserve Board Governor name
That makes it pretty who is behind these cosmetic only reforms
Once again Americans bite the bait when they confuse a few choices to be their only choice
And worse yet, they are duped into thinking these few choices will be FREE CHOICE.
All taxes applied by force and deception are destructive and illegitimate.
These type of taxes are unnecessary, repressive and destructive as well as immoral
Basic contract law requires no coercion and no deception otherwise the contract is void
The myth of direct & indirect taxes applied upon the natural born is maligned
This is more Junk Finance propagated by the Four Brokers of Bankruptcy for their early retirement
AND YOUR EARLY DEATH
These are the Four Horseman of Death
The Bench,
The Bar,
The Bankers and
THEIR political Brokers,
i.e. their governments - Cities, counties, state and fed
TAX 101 (sorry to repeat this endlessly for those who know already)
1. Sales taxes are an indirect tax and must be uniform across the states and cannot be applied to the natural born as an add on till tax.
2. Direct taxes must be apportioned by population to the states.
How the several states pay is their business BUT
They cannot apply any taxes by force, coercion or deception to the natural born
Current property taxes, income taxes and sales taxes upon the natural born are unconstitutional
There are no constitutional direct taxes in the United States for good reason
Even the Federalist well knew the danger of direct taxes
and limited them to emergencies ONLY
1/4 to 2% MAX
and voluntary
This detail was intentionally left out of the Constitution
The Bill of Rights were to be the Supreme Law of Land Not the Constitution
The Bill of Rights were to be Articles NOT Amendments
The Constitution is in conflict with the Bill of Rights
You cannot tax God given rights of a natural born to own property and earn wages
A few good high courts have reaffirmed this in the past
Forced or deceptive taxes conflicts with the Bills of Rights AND the Laws of Nature
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse have taken away the powers of Grand & Trial Juries
The Grand & Trial Juries have all the power to decide the law
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse are to stand down to the will of the final Supreme Judges, the natural born.
The Four Brokers use tyranny to force unjust legal, financial, monetary & scientific fiction over the land
3. The ONLY constitutional sources of income for the government are:
uniform indirect taxes paid by the corporations and businesses
the lease and sale of government owned lands
customs import duties upon foreign countries and business trading in America
the federal printing press which do not have to pay interest to anyone.
THERE IS NO OTHER LEGITMATE SOURCES OF REVENUE FOR THE GOVERNMENT.
So called "Direct taxes" are not only immoral, they are highly destructive and need to be eliminated totally.
Even the Federalist could never get unanimous approval on this clause.
The direct tax clause is highly perverted the original intention of even the pro central Federalist
There was NO unanimous approval.
This is why the Federalist added the last Article 7 of the Constitution, i.e.
i.e. they could not get unanimous approval of the 13 states,
so they settled on 9 states as "sufficient" for ratification.
There are no constitutionally applied "direct taxes" existing today!
There have only been three times in history when the Four Brokers tried to stick this in
It never worked.
It is near impossible to apply.
There are precedence setting, repeated high court rulings, against
property taxes, income taxes and the taxing of any wages.
All sales taxes must be costed into the price of the goods or service by the merchants and then passed on IF the business sees fit when competing with other merchants.
Limited Constitutional Revenue Fences In The Government AND the sovereign states NOT the sovereign Citizens
This was the intension even of the pro big central government Federalist types.
The Anti Federalist were much more prophetic and correct.
Once you allow private property to be breeched, you have destroyed yourself
A central government does not protect the freedom of its people, it is a threat
Never give up your power to someone else to "protect" yourself
This is tantamount to giving up you side arm to a stranger to protect your family
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse are bleeding American's to death.
Bailouts are ether on the same old fires of taking Americans.
We need to put The Four Brokers in a position whereby they have no choice but to starve themselves to death.
Thereby the people will be set free.
Free people and free markets create the wealth.
Government does not create anything BUT WARS, DEBT & PERPETUATION OF ITSELF
Government & Corporate Institutions are both by their nature predatory sharks
We cannot continue to blow up a balloon of debt with the illusion it will protect us.
This is an oxymoron.
Bailouts are the symptom of the problem NOT the cure.
The problem is the current system which has been created by and revolves around These Four Brokers of Death.
The solution is simple, though hard to believe for some
Get rid of all forms of forced direct and indirect taxes upon the natural born
Get rid of all interest charges upon the natural born
Interest and taxes are fictional creations by the Four Brokers for legal fiction entities ONLY
Financial fiction cannot be applied upon natural born state Citizens
Give the natural born allodial title to their property, i.e. the title of kings
Then set US free
Once people are secure from The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse
to own their homes, land and vehicles in allodial title without predatory takings
they are free to recreate themselves
"If there is righteousness in the heart
There will be beauty in the character;
If there is beauty in the character
There will be harmony in the home;
When there is harmony in the home
There will be order in the nation;
When there is order in the nation
There will be peace in the world."
-Sai Baba
Taxes and interest upon private property, create and perpetuate endless boom bust destruction upon our lives and the sanctity of our homes, land and property.
These two weasel words ("taxes & interest") were cleverly crafted masking the terminal nature of their venom.
Taxes and interest are equivalent to the profits of money changers as well as other deceptions, e.g. the monetizing of debt into a worthless currency,
evolution of legal fiction "progressive positivism", junk science fictions, e.g. "alternative energy", "man caused global warming", "man caused endangered species", etc.There is little to no need for interest as the money is freely printed at no cost Low to NO interest loans plus closing costs are economically viable
The sovereign states and their sovereign and free Citizens have been taken by stealth, deception and subversion while corporate media and the Four Brokers of the Apocalypse spin these superstitions into colored laws.
The federal government was intentionally restricted to a 10 square mile sand box around D.C.
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse breeched this sand box long ago
by morphing the old concepts of a limited trade and a 5% import tax into
a global municipal corporation enjoined with national and global businesses.
They have amassed a virtual fortune beyond anyone's ability to visualize the scam.
There is no law requiring anyone to pay a so called "income" tax.
The high court has ruled on this several times so saying.
Income is profit or gain NOT wages.
Wages is your labor and is NOT profit or a gain
We live on the surface of a balloon intentionally over and under inflating.
This whip saw sends shock waves through the lives of Americans generation after generation
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse intentionally continue this game for their profit and power Centuries of this "bull whipping" of the natural born and our private property ultimately uproot our lives and traditions.
Thereby, The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse more easily take anything they want, any time they want.
The great depression was orchestrated, as well as the Civil War, WWI and most of the wars.
The bailouts are the symptom NOT the solution
The solution is to overturn the money taking boards and tables creating these takings
The enormity of the takings against private property owners ....
Over the last 233 years, is unimaginable, indescribable, unbelievable and staggering.
"The founding lawyers regarded inferior courts as a vital link to the Supreme Court
for maintaining federal supremacy." The Constitution That Never Was.
The US Attorney Office as well as the US Attorney General office is not authorized by the Constitution
There is NO separation of power
The bench and the bar all work for the same boss
The Grand and Trial Juries meant to be the ultimate judicial check are strangled by judicial tyranny
The current tax system upon the natural born in American is feudal
People are killing themselves and their families because of the repressive nature of this apocalyptic system
Six families in California recently pulled the trigger on each other BECAUSE OF THE SYSTEM.
They are being pressured unjustly out of their homes
All because of the creation of phony myths of scarcity, of usurious interest diluted titles, promoted by the bench, bar, bankers & government brokers
whereby they your homes, land, vehicles, wages, family estate, etc.
The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse have destroyed everything we have fought and died for 92% of Americans do not even know it
There are no founding laws sanctioning any of these illegitimate takings of private property.
There are high court rulings via precedence cases against much of this
All being ignored by the lower bench, bar and banks & Brokers of CONgress
In addition to legal, financial & junk science fiction created hourly to legitimatize further embezzlement of our private property and traditional way of life.
The game board is rigged to wring out blood money to The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse
The apocalypse is created one tax crime at a time.
The taxing takes many forms, visible and invisible.
A recent federal court ruling in Washington State declared King County land restrictions an illegitimate tax
One of the speakers at the last GoodNeighborLaw Forum said it best, I thought.
We must nip these takings in the heel of the basic assumptions.
This is how ALL our private and public property are taken.
Every piece of "legislation" coming out of the several states in the corporate "united states" takes away from our free will and free choice, directly and indirectly generation after generation
The thief comes in the night when we are sleeping.
The solution is simple, turn on your lights and arm yourself with the hard truth.
Once you are able to see clearly who is taking your property
Sound the alarm throughout the land
"The Four Brokers of the Apocalypse are coming"
"The Bench are coming"
"The Bar are coming"
"The Bankers are coming"
"The Political Party Brokers are coming"
"The Tax Reform Brokers are coming"
Let the virtual Bell Towers signal the truth again
YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO

IRONY

By Jim Beers

i-ro-ny (I' re ni), n., 3. simulated ignorance in discussion (Socratic irony), 4. (in tragedy) the quality or effect of speeches understood by the audience but not grasped by the actors on the stage (tragic irony).
Let us begin with today's GW (global warming) update. Last night, 4 February 2009, the predicted low temperature in Jacksonville, Florida was 22 degrees: tonight the predicted low is 21 degrees.
Now I know, per the "experts", that GW isn't "warming" but the cause of "all variances of hot and cold and extremes of weather". I certainly would be the last to say, "Aha, if it is so cold in Florida; how can anyone say that the "globe" is "warming?" Rather I think we should consider the children of Florida. The young Floridian munchkins are bombarded with teachers, a President and Congress, television worthies, books, and assorted "guest speakers" preaching all manner of doomsday effects from GW if we don't shut down energy use, power development, livestock operations, and grant the central and even the much-needed "world government" complete control of our lives. If their parents are skeptical, they should be either converted by the children or ignored since that is like racism per one ex-Vice President. If they are not successful in this campaign, plant life will surely disappear along with animal species and there will be flooding of coastal
cities as exemplified by how drinks with melting ice cubes (overflow?); this last one probably strikes a chord with Jacksonville kids that play on beaches. What must these innocents think it was like years ago? Was Florida weather once like Minnesota before the evil capitalist white Europeans spoiled everything and "warmed" it up? If "they" (the "scientists and politicians) are going to cool down the "globe", what will summer on the beaches be like? If a "cooled" earth means lower ocean levels, where will the "beach" part of the desert between Jacksonville and the ocean be? How far will they have to go through sand dunes to reach it? Shouldn't a "cooler" Florida be less hospitable to the boa constrictors and piranhas and alligators and poisonous snakes that make Florida living perilous for children not under the "care" of the bureaucrats that hold them captive each day? This scenario might be considered an example of tragic irony.
Then we have yesterday's White House pronouncement that henceforth any (private?) enterprise taking any of the proffered Billions (one is reminded of the M-44 coyote getter, a scented ball that encourages a coyote to pull on it with his mouth thereby firing a poison cartridge into his mouth and killing him) may not pay any executives more than $500 thousand per year. "Hooray" we all say, "yeah if 'they are going to take 'our' money, they should dance to our tune"; the egalitarian fairness boggles the mind.
Then there were the news items accompanying this socialist dream mandate:
- The President's nominee to "Direct" the Central Intelligence Agency (a former Congressman and White House Chief of Staff) made $700 thousand last year giving "speeches" to whomever. As one who dabbles in that pursuit, I know how hard it would be to make such a sum! Be that as it may, why is it bad for an executive of a large (private??) enterprise to make whatever the enterprise will pay if they take the federal "dole" but it is of no moment when a retired and pensioned politician collects $700 thousand per annum for hobnobbing? If the companies go broke, unlike the Secretary of the Treasury job that can "only" be done by the incumbent so be it, however the (free?) enterprise system assures that they can replace the "over-paid executives" or else other companies will "out-compete" them and take their place with more efficient operations. This whole government takeover and precedent
seems to be an example of Socratic irony.
- Speaking of the CIA Director nominee, if as has been discovered he has received emoluments (money) from organizations and corporations that do business with federal intelligence agencies, wouldn't that disqualify him from holding such a powerful office that controls Billions of dollars of such business? I guess not if we accept this as an example of tragic irony.
- If the former (as of yesterday) nominee for the Secretary of Health and Human Services "position" that collected $5 Million plus a car and driver over the past two years (does that make him a "bad" person?) from medical and pharmaceutical firms, since he lost reelection (will miracles never cease?) as a US Senator can still be supported by the President and his former colleagues in the US Senate well, such business connections must be viewed as "advantageous" in spite of his "understandable mistake" of not paying $150 thousand or so ( without penalties) worth of taxes. Aside from this bit of cynicism there is the additional assertion by the President and his staff that this former HHS Secretary nominee was NOT a lobbyist since he did not "register" as a lobbyist. Maybe, like the other two tax cheat nominees one of who is now Secretary of the Treasury and the other one that
also withdrew yesterday, he didn't "realize" he had to register. The fact
that his wife that was a "registered" lobbyist, making more, no doubt, than the currently mandated "$500 thousand per annum for executives" while he was a US Senator and that so she remains today, should not indicate a person that we should expect would know about "registering" as a lobbyist. Therefore he was "what?" A "fixer?" A "front man?" A "behind-the-scenes-guy?" Such questions reflect a suspicion of Socratic irony in the matter.
- Then there is the Congresswoman nominated as Secretary of Labor. She likewise was "regulatory-requirements challenged". She never told anyone or much less "registered" as required by law (this must be a funny law that applies to Congressmen and not like other laws intended only for the rest of us) that she was a Treasurer for a Fabian Socialist Union organization while she was serving in Congress. She, like her tax-cheat cohorts simply made an "understandable mistake". Like all the others, she will not be prosecuted, fined, pay any penalties, or even be described as anything but smart and worthy of a child's role model. Tragic irony abounds here.
- As we talk about lobbyist spouses, registration requirements, and the integrity of government how can we ignore the newly appointed Secretary of State? Not only does her spouse collect millions of dollars per year from foreign governments for?? Not only are the records of past collections by this spouse, much like the list of the donors that contributed the record amounts of cash to the current President's campaign, unavailable to the public: this spouse has just held a one-hour meeting with the (Prime Minister/President/Dictator?) Putin of Russia as the Russians are muscling us out of the only and vital Afghanistan operations-support airbase in one
of their (former?) satellite states. Who allows such American citizen diplomacy? What was said? What real or implied authority does the husband of the Secretary of State or an ex-President exert? Why not just let Jimmy Carter "handle" North Korea and Israel while the current President and his "Cabinet" handle Argentina and Australia? This is classic Socratic irony.
Something that has long puzzled me was way in which British voters kicked out the Churchill government as soon as WWII was over. It had always seemed to me that he was an inspiring leader and had done a creditable job in very trying circumstances. A couple of nights ago, the reason for that abrupt governmental change became clear to me as I read Fabian Freeway by Rose L. Martin. That change, both the reasons for it and the results of it, is very important to understand in the USA today.
During and after WWI and through the 20's and 30's Europe was convulsed by radical movements and social turbulence. Communist savagery in Russia, Nazism in Germany, Socialism in Italy and all manner of revolutionaries in other European nations. During this period in England a mixture of every European revolutionary movement existed and amongst them was a flock of rich nobles and writers like Shaw and Wells et al that envisioned a Nirvana of social equality and universal welfare. During the late 1930's this group of "intellectual" activists began destroying the Liberal party to bring its' members into a Labour Party that they were redesigning with unions and an array of social and anti-colonial activists. Sound familiar regarding "smart people", "experts", and "scientists" since the 1960's in the US?
During WWII there was an agreement amongst British political parties to suspend political rivalries while fighting the war. Labour Party leaders secretly disregarded the agreement and worked up a program (actually a "study" and "proposal") of social welfare and security for all English citizens that they announced halfway through the war. Obtaining the support of the US Ambassador who was very sympathetic to socialism on the heels of the US Depression, British citizens from soldiers and sailors to factory workers and farmers tired of restrictions and hardships learned of the proposed "heaven-on-earth" that Labour would establish. Sound like a recent election?
When the war ended everyone was spent from fighting, rationing, and wartime mandates. The promised "Nirvana" was not only jumped at, it was embraced with all the fervor of honeymooners. Labour won a landslide victory and kept an iron grip on absolute power for six years. Although socialists blamed the war recovery at first, prices shot up, people did not seek work since the government "promised help", private housing g was discouraged and "public" housing was slow and generated ever-greater waiting lists, government nationalized almost half of the economy and businesses dwindled, government mandates and regulations and prosecutions proliferated steadily, things like a ration of one and a half eggs per person per week became common, and taxes went up and up as businesses went down and down. British working class tourists taking a ferry to Ireland received sympathy and
charity from Irish working class persons that felt sorry for their condition, especially for the children: an ironic turn-around if ever there was one. Britain was changed irreparably and shows the wounds to this day. President Bush, Iraq, Guantanamo, government takeover, economic downturn, asking for the "support" never given the previous guy, and promises of "heaven-on-earth" anyone?)
Does any of this sound familiar? Social turbulence? A populace tired of war? Radical claims and ideas? Economic "emergencies"? Central government control and intervention for every concern? Central government authority and planning for everything? Denigration of the former leadership? A promise of solutions to all problems if government can get and spend more? Government housing control? Government spending of unheard of amounts that can only be fed by more taxes? Disincentives for work as government "takes from the rich" thereby discouraging investment and "gives to the poor" thereby encouraging workers to only work when employers offer "enough"? Concomitant losses of rights as government authority encompasses all things? Elimination of culture and traditions? Charismatic leaders painting a future that is neither achievable nor respectful of human dignity?
Put this all together and in the context of the USA in 2009 and it adds up to irony of the highest order. We believe in and remind others to support corrupt leaders that lie to us and ignore the rules of civil order. We tell everyone that we "must want our leaders to succeed" (Bill O'Reilly et al) even though their goals are inimical to freedom and hostile to the principles and words of the US Constitution. Call me cynical but I anticipate an ironic tragedy, minus the irony based on the way things are heading. Jim Beers 5 February 2009

AN ENCOURAGING THOUGHT

By Jim Beers

This morning my parish priest mentioned a paradox worth pondering: "When it is easy to be a Christian, it is hard to be a Christian; when it is hard to be a Christian, it is easy to be a Christian". That wise observation about human nature has application for all of us facing a government that threatens our freedom, our culture, our traditions, and our Constitutional Republic. To paraphrase, "When there is no threat to your (property rights, guns, animal ownership, public lands, rural lifestyle, transportation, children's moral values, etc. - you fill in your own concerns), it is hard to remain vigilant about defending your rights; when your (as above) are threatened, it is easy to enunciate and defend those rights".
There is no doubt in my mind that at no other time in my 6+ decades of life were the threats to property, hunting, fishing, trapping, animal ownership, animal use, public lands, state government, local community autonomy, timber management, wildlife management, ranching, farming, outdoor recreation, transportation, pet ownership, children's environment, families, human dignity, and all of the Rights specifically enumerated in The Bill of Rights as threatened with destruction as they are today.
Eighty years of federal growth resulting from two Constitutional Amendments authorizing a federal income tax and the popular election of US Senators has fed a federal behemoth that has grown out of all proportion to the good of a Constitutional Republic.
Forty years of social turbulence and radical movements that have attached themselves to the federal "beanstalk" have given us animal "rights", "Wilderness" closure of public lands and unimaginable fires, "endangered species" confidence games that take property and impede economic development, sexual license of every imaginable stripe, replacement of parental authority with government authority, "environmental" laws that are 70 to 80 percent unnecessary yet give radical groups legal vetoes over human welfare, and incredible scams like global warming claims that threaten
government authority over every aspect of our lives and expose the ignorance of an increasingly ill-educated populace.
All of this terminates in the acceptance of more and more federal power for every aspect of our lives as best exemplified in the current "Bailout/Stimulus" fraud wherein Billions are appropriated overnight for "emergency" bailout of banks but then goes to other things. The current Trillion being rushed to authorization as an "emergency" to help the unemployed and to "stimulate" the economy will go to everything from Congressmen's favored institutions (extending federal controls and paying political debts) or to criminal enterprises like ACORN as well as to condoms
(eliminating children) and Billions and Billions for other Fabian-Socialist causes like dictating company salaries and business operations like what cars to build that are altogether like replacing the propellers on the engines of the American socialist movement bi-plane with jet engines. This "emergency" cover scheme has been an historic ruse for establishment of all manner of dictatorships and oligarchies that have come and gone throughout history. One need look no further today than Venezuela and Zimbabwe to observe the same scenario; elected governments that use "emergencies" and central government authority to cement themselves into "unreplaceable" dictatorships to the great distress of their citizenry and the national welfare.
It is a fact that The White House is now bursting with radicals that have and intend to achieve these Fabian-Socialist ends from gun control to "rights" for animals and the control of all property, businesses, and human activities by an "unchallegeable" federal government. The House of Representatives is controlled by a majority and by a "Speaker" that not only support these same goals and this White House; even more do they strive to accelerate and enlarge on these Fabian-Socialist goals before they might lose this sympathetic White House and an overwhelmingly sympathetic US Senate. What is true of the House of Representatives is identically true of the current US Senate. This "troika" amounts to one-party government and will almost certainly be able to soon place sympathetic Justices on the Supreme Court that will rule from their political sympathies and not from the Constitution to assure that the coming federal laws and treaties and regulations and bureaucratic actions are all affirmed. Add to this an overwhelmingly socialist-oriented federal workforce plus state governments, state agencies, and Universities that are all increasingly similarly oriented and increasingly dependent on the federal "dole" of "grants",
"cost-sharing", "partnerships", and now "stimulus" money with all the attendant "strings" and you have a very gloomy outlook to say the least.
Yet, there may be "hope". If it is true that being a good Christian is easiest when it is hardest: then today being a strong defender of rights should be easy in today's atmosphere. There is no doubt that the threats were never greater: the only question is how many of us will stand up for freedom in the face of these threats? Each of us has certain strengths and capitalizing on our strengths is where we are most effective. Community dialogues, talking to friends and acquaintances, writing, contacting those that might benefit from truth, coming together with like-minded people, and not buckling to intimidation are but a few of the things for each of us to consider. Our American freedoms are too precious to lose by cowardice; once
lost, their replacement is next to impossible. Not only our current families and communities, but also our descendants are depending on us.Jim Beers 4 February 2009

Vlad's Bad Gas Economically Asphyxiates, Silences and Chills Europeans, But They Continue to Tolerate It!,

Europe’s dependence on Russian natural gas is considerable. Countries in Central Europe, such as Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Germany and Austria, are extremely dependent on Russian natural gas imports, as is Turkey. Germany receives 43 percent of all the natural gas it consumes from Russia; Turkey receives 66 percent of its natural gas from Russia. At the moment, the Soviet infrastructure links the Russian Tyumen, Timan-Pechora and Ob Basin fields with European consumers, as well as the natural gas fields in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.

Letter From The Only Person Who Filed Suit Against Center For Biodiversity - and WON!

Jim Chilton was one of the guest speakers at the Good Neighbor Forum `07. He actually WON a suit against the Center for Biodiversity. To learn more, please go to www.GoodNeighborLaw.com

Jim Chilton, Chairman, Federal Lands Committee
Arizona Cattle Growers’ Association
Box 423, 17691 W. Chilton Ranch Road
Arivaca, Arizona 85601


To: Director, Judicial Watch, Inc.
Dear Mr. Fitton, January 13, 2009

It is time to declare victory. As you and I agreed at our meeting in 2005, citizens are subject to tyranny when a Federal Officer does not follow the laws, rules, regulations and handbooks of his or her Agency. When individual federal employees are allowed without consequence to impose their own personal environmental agendas through use of the federal regulatory process, we are no longer a nation of laws.
One of my goals as Federal Lands Chairman of the Arizona Cattle Growers’ Association was to get the United States Forest Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Bureau of Land Management to issue new ethics guidelines regarding conflicts of interest for their employees. Thanks to Judicial Watch and our tenacious lawyer Dennis Parker, I am pleased to announce that the new ethics documents have been issued by these three agencies. Hopefully, this multi-year effort will give ranchers and other citizens a more effective way to challenge unethical behavior practiced by anti-ranching activists within these federal agencies.
Your team, led by Mr. Christopher J. Farrell, was instrumental in successfully identifying gross conflicts of interest and unethical behavior within the United States Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Fish and Wildlife Service. I believe the identification of the abuses, together with a series of letters to Agency officials, caused the aforementioned Agencies to promulgate the attached Code of Ethics for each Agency. I sincerely hope the Obama Administration enforces the new Code of Ethics.
In closing, thank you again for your, your staff’s, Mr. Farrell’s and Judicial Watch’s diligent efforts to protect United States citizens. The American cattle and sheep ranchers of the West, along with the Arizona Cattle Growers’ Association and the National Public Lands Council, certainly appreciate your work.
Sincerely, Jim Chilton

THE ROAD AHEAD

By Jim Beers

First a GW Update - 2 February 2009, London: "Snow brings Britain to a screeching halt." "A fierce winter snowstorm crippled London's roads, subways, and buses and all but shut down many parts of Britain on Monday." "Britain's worst snowstorm in 18 years", "3,000 schools across England and Wales were closed". "The (British) Automobile Association said drivers would be flirting with hypothermia". "Three people were killed by the cold and torrential rains in Italy". "Airports were closed or beset by delays." "The Federation of Small Businesses predicted the storm would cost the (British) economy several billion dollars."
Conclusion. If you believe in Global Warming as:
1. A manmade phenomenon due to "too many people living their lives" and too much "carbon dioxide" being generated by human activities,

2. Something that can be affected by reducing carbon dioxide.

3. Something that only would create harmful effects and not merely change things in both positive and negative ways.

4. An excuse to sign the US into the UN/Kyoto Protocols aimed at giving the US government a mandate to "control" and regulate every imaginable human activity from farming and energy production to transportation and where and how you can live.
(FYI, I don't believe any of the above.) Ask yourself if you believe that Britain wouldn't benefit from a warmer winter? If Britain increased its' "carbon footprint" by things like burning more fossil fuel or feeding beans to livestock (thereby increasing the pharting of methane that is eventually oxidized in the atmosphere, producing carbon dioxide and water) would that moderate the climate and warm the British Isles? I submit that weather is primarily the result of activity on the surface of the sun and such things as oceanic hydraulics and the assumption that we can affect it significantly on a global or long-term scale is the height of human hubris. I am confounded by the naiveté (or is it purposeful disingenuousness?) of the promise of the new President of the United States to disadvantage us in World Trade by signing the Kyoto "TREATY" (thereby trumping, per Article VI, the Constitution of the US that make such "TREATIES" "the supreme Law of the Land") to establish an all-powerful central government control of American Society to "to stop global warming". This proposed "Law of the Land" authority for the central government of the US over something like carbon dioxide is akin to Soviet occupational authority over Eastern Europe in 1946 or Rome's authority over Israel in 73 AD after the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem and the fall of Masada: that is to say absolute regarding everything. The fact that his newly appointed White House "Climate Czarina", Carol Browner, spent the last eight years actively incubating in Socialist International should alert all Americans to the magnitude of hidden agendas involved here that are NOT in our best interests.
Speaking of the new President, now beginning Week 3 of his Administration, the shape of the emerging White House staff should send chills down the spines of all Americans. Both because of the clear intent of this Administration to "run things" from a more powerful White House and the backgrounds of the appointees moving into these powerful position; an honest examination of the White House staff is of more than passing interest to all of us and not just political pundits. Keep in mind that I am ignoring the top Departmental appointees like the gun control/tax cheat pardon enabler that is now Attorney General or the tax cheat nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services (News alert! Daschle withdrew 2/3/09) that once led the fight against banning partial birth abortion or the tax cheat that is now Secretary of the Treasury. I am also ignoring the urban tax cheat US Representative that chairs the House Ways and Means Committee that writes tax legislation or the Chairman of the House Banking Committee that earmarks banks in his District in "Stimulus Legislation" and used to fix parking tickets on Capitol Hill for his
roommate that ran a male prostitution service out of his townhouse. They are both servants of and allies to The White House policies and programs planned for your future. While the ethical and historical records of these individuals are important, what I want to focus on is the emerging White House staff and the historical activism and agendas they represent. This as clear an indication that is available about what can be expected to from this dominant White House.
Regarding Gun Control it is sufficient to state that the new President and his Chief of Staff, former Chicago Congressman Rahm Emmanuel, have a long and unflinching record of gun control activism in Chicago, Illinois, and in the US Congress.
Regarding Animal "Rights", the newly appointed Director of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Cass Sunstein, is as extreme an animal "rights" radical as they come. Not only does he work to destroy the concept of animals as property, he opposes all manner of animal use from farming and hunting and fishing to eating animals or using their parts in any way. He is one of those that everyone smirks about when they hear about court cases or ads by PETA; don't smirk, he and they are deadly serious.
Regarding abortion, the government might just as well have paid the movers to move the Planned Parenthood and Emily's List head offices into the White House basement: abortion activists abound, to say the least.
- Melody Barnes, a former Planned Parenthood Board Member, left the very liberal Center for American Progress to be Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council.
-Ellen Moran, the Executive Director of Emily's List an abortion advocacy political action committee, will head the White House Communications Team.
-Jackie Norris, a former Planned Parenthood Board Member, will be the First lady's Chief of Staff.
- Although I promised to only mention White House staff, there is one other that begs for attention. NARAL's (the biggest feminist abortion lobby group) former Legal Director will be Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel.
These three things; gun control, animal "rights", and abortion are all I
(and your attention) have space for, but they are key to understanding what our future holds. You must take my word about the following. Over the past 15 years I have been up against the anti-natural resource management, anti-animal use, anti-property, anti-gun, anti-freedom, and anti-Constitutional groups. When you go to an Animal Rights Conference, not only are all the environmental extremist groups and animal rights radical groups represented, NARAL is actively engaged by loaning money and people to things like "The Great Ape Project" that is a succubus of the animal rights fringe to take a "great ape" into the "right" court at the "right" time to
get the "right" judge to affirm that Alfred the Ape or Ollie the Orangutan is entitled to "all the rights of any American citizen" (much like those terrorists at Guantanamo one must presume today). ALL of these groups support gun confiscation as a means to ally themselves with other socialist groups and as a means to eliminate hunting and animal control and rural lifestyles and the sort of free men envisioned by Our Founding Fathers.
So as they (the White House and their allies running Congress) attack a Constitutional Right, "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms", specifically guaranteed in the Constitution and specifically protected as to "not be infringed": what chance do you think we have regarding "certain unalienable Rights" "endowed by their Creator" "among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness" that are mentioned in The Declaration of Independence but are not held as binding in a court of US law? If you hunt, fish, farm, log, have a pet, ranch, trap, own guns, use guns, value your children's understanding of your moral sense, live in rural America, or want your descendants to enjoy the freedoms, culture, and traditions that made this country great: you are fooling yourself if you are not in fear of
what these new rulers intend for you and our nation. What they intend, believe me, you do not want.
Finally, if you have not been keeping abreast of the incremental creep of, for instance, animal ownership, management, and use; remember how we abandoned any management of whales (because they are what?) and then the management of seals (because they are what?) and then the management of sharks and wolves and cougars and grizzly bears: while today we point to "overfishing" and "dams" as causing fishery declines, and the deaths of campers and hunters and small children by predators as due to "improper behavior", and the disappearance of ranches and rural towns as due to "misuse of the land"? If you still doubt incremental creep, remember the Roe v. Wade cry of "only the first three months", then six, then nine, then partial birth abortion, and finally Princeton professors proposing "six months old" for those with a "poor quality of life" (like the cleft palate that my grandfather had as he raised his family and then me during WWII!)?
One final and current example of "creeping evil" is the confirmation process of the current Secretary of the Treasury and his cohort the Secretary of Health and Human Services nominee. When the Treasury guy (who now runs the IRS) was confirmed after being exposed for not paying $38 thousand in taxes from the two years before he was made to pay the same taxes for the following two years; and after he was given money by his employer to specifically pay those taxes; and paid them just as he was nominated for this post; and finally to not be charged penalties like you and me: a
standard was dropped and an ethical concept was abandoned. Enter the revelation that the Health and Human Services nominee, a former US Senator that made $5 Million in the two years after being defeated for reelection, failed to pay $138 thousand in taxes due years ago and that he was employed as a lobbyists for the medical industry, a major player in Health and Human Services as we all know. So when is tax evasion (cheating) an impediment to powerful government posts? If not at $38 thousand and then not at $138 thousand; if not at two years and not at four years: I can only assume it is like US Senator Webb's loaded handgun violation on Capitol Hill, that is to say "insufficient evidence" for powerful persons to be held accountable while not being an impediment for incarcerating those of us like the
starving citizens that Marie Antoinette once recommended should "eat cake".
Given the radical officials now in charge and the radical agendas they
represent; two years of incremental creep is a lifetime, four years is an eternity. The mix of radical agendas, majority rule, double standards, and the abandonment of ethics is as great a threat to our society today as it ever was for numberless other societies that disappeared into the sands of time.

ILLUSIONS vs. REALITY

By Jim Beers

Thirteen years ago today (2 February 1996), the coldest temperature ever recorded in the State of Minnesota - 60 degrees below zero - was recorded in Tower, Minnesota. "Musta been" before "carbon footprints" and while ex- Vice President Gore and his allies were busy with other things "environmental".
This morning's news on the TV featured a Doctor from a clinic in Georgia, billed as an expert on "in vitro fertilization", explaining the ethics and policies that govern episodes like the recent singular birth of eight artificially implanted embryos. The "Georgia" Doctor sported a very noticeable British accent. Why is a Doctor from Britain practicing medicine in the US? Could it be because he makes and keeps more money here and therefore leads a freer life? I wonder if there are any or many Doctors in Britain that sport a USA accent? Could it be because only "missionary" doctors and nurses from the US choose to practice in poor countries in Africa or Asia or South America and only a miniscule number, if any, choose to practice where medicine is "nationalized"? Why is that? If the "socialized medicine" of Europe and Canada and Australia is so desirable that it is a campaign promise of the current President, why don't American doctors go there? Since they do not go there, could it be that this "universal" (AKA "socialized") medicine neither produces nor maintains the high quality Doctors Americans enjoy today? If we "socialize" medicine like Britain and the rest of Europe and Canada and as our new President promises, will we have their long "waiting lists"; will we have their bureaucratic decisions about "you're too old for care" or "that child is imperfect and therefore should be aborted (AKA "killed") or "the ONLY specialist left (since 'specialties' no longer pay enough to justify all the additional study, time, and debt) that can treat XXXX is across the country and is not available for 3 years; and will all of our Doctors eventually be 3rd world natives and 3rd world medical school graduates like the two British Health care Doctors of (Pakistani?) descent that recently tried to blow up or burn down that airport in Scotland?
I am repeatedly reminded that there is a "national economic crisis". If that is so, why are the President and Congress obsessed with spending Billions on birth control, gun control, more Wilderness (both from a non-use and management aspect as well as the catastrophic fire aspect), and giving Billions to law-breaking and socialist-oriented urban groups like ACORN? Why are they considering the unbelievable long-range expenses of "national" health care when Social Security is going broke and the national deficit mortgages our future and risks national "foreclosure"?
While the central government spends money like drunken sailors, the heretofore hidden and growing subservience of State governments to an increasingly all-powerful central government can no longer be denied. For instance, here in Minnesota a popularly described "fiscally conservative" Governor is attacked for the slightest attempt to bring state spending in line with state revenues. The teachers and parents moan that he hates children when he proposes school funding cuts. The urban Doctors and Hospital staffs publicly proclaim that he hates the poor and the delivery of medical services (presumably to everyone but himself) because he "dares" to propose cuts in medical subsidies and assistance. The "Conservation, arts advocates cry foul over proposed cuts" because the Governor proposes a 2.2 percent cut in such funding after our recent election where Minnesotans voted to earmark increased sales taxes for such work (of course everyone conveniently forgets that it was several weeks AFTER the vote for something "we all loved" that the state announced the Billions of dollars of deficits forecast for the next few years). So our Governor is denounced as a bum for attempting to "cut" spending and the President and Congress are lauded for increasing spending. Everyone is confidently "looking to Washington" for "help" that will keep things just as they were. What "crisis", if all we need are more federal largesse, power, and intervention to make everything better?
So the Governors, including Governor Palin of Alaska, are supporting the national "Bailout" or "Stimulus" proposals to sprinkle a TRILLION or so of our children's tax dollars across the "fruited plain". In this they join urban Democrat politicians in jockeying at the trough for the greatest share possible of these "federal" dollars. Like 12 puppies going after 10 teats, urban mayors and Governors of both parties vie for the promise of federal funding. The fact is that all the large cities are constantly on the verge of bankruptcy because of the promises made by their entrenched Democrat "machines" for the votes to keep them in power. State governments have likewise spent and spent and spent as the "good times (i.e. 'tax collections') rolled". State bureaucrats will now be evaluated by their bosses and receive bonuses based on "how much" and "how quickly" they get "every dime available from the federal piggy bank" just like state highway personnel and
state fish and wildlife agency and state education bureaucrats have been for some time. Forget about "strings": if Robert Reich and Congressional Committee Chairman Wrangel (another national urban politician tax evader) get the legislation to say (as they have discussed in Congressional testimony) "NO FUNDING FOR WHITE MALES OR SKILLED WORKERS" so be it, the Governors will just take the money and run.
Like the bankers that lent to unqualified homebuyers to gain political capital with mostly Democrat national and urban politicians, the states have built a house of cards that cannot withstand the inevitable downturns in all free economies. Like wars and crime, such economic downturns are the inescapable results of human nature and man's constant surrender to the temptation of figuring ways to take property and money from others for their own use by circumventing the current rules and practices be they banking policies, governmental structures, political elections or international boundaries. The parallels between what is happening in the US today
("emergencies", proposed massive road improvements and job promises from central planners, bugaboos like "white men", financing extremist support groups, gun and ammunition control, elimination of local governments much like elected Governors were recently replaced by appointees in Russia and elected Gaulieters were eliminated in favor of appointees in 1930's Germany, and national desperation combined with a charismatic leadership justifying the destruction of any impediment to "quick passage" of extremist legislation, etc.) and other recent Socialist and Communist government takeovers from Lenin and Ho Chi Minh to Castro and Chavez are stunning.
Thus the illusions are front and center in our news and dialogue as we welcome diversion after concluding inwardly that we are helpless and we cannot do anything about what is happening.
We smile as we see Putin and Medvedev attend a funeral in a Moscow Church for the deceased Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox. Why they are nice men, just like us.
We nod our heads as the President offers "olive branches" and meets with the "partisan" opposition that seems to not want to put "partisan politics" behind them much like the President and his supporters did with the previous President. We cannot understand why they cannot "compromise" so that everyone can, to quote the infamous Rodney King, "just get along"?
We agree that we should have neighborhood meetings, like Soviet-style gatherings, where support for the President's policies can be generated or at least where those opposed can be identified and marginalized.
We cheer as The President meets with "Liberal" Church "leaders" and asks us all to ask why the "Churches" are not supporting his abortion and non-discrimination hiring policies as a price for accepting federal funds?
The fact that the "Liberal" Church "leaders" represent only an eclectic mixture of personal beliefs and not universally held truths is of no moment just as the results of forcing Jewish organizations to hire Moslems or Catholic organizations like schools and hospitals to hire Abortion Activists and perform abortions is welcomed by those Americans bent on eliminating all religious belief from public life.
We wrinkle our brows as Speaker Pelosi and Vice President Biden explain how no one knows when life begins including their own Church or how killing unborn children "saves money". Psst, the dirty little secret is that the poor and minority unborn (in those neighborhoods where the vast majority of Abortion Clinics of Planned Parenthood are located) are the ones we "save money" by aborting: the well-to-do and eventually well educated unborn will grow up to pay taxes and "innovate" and hire others and support "us" and our Social Security in our old age through government programs according to these "leaders". But not to worry, the same politicians are promising the same poor and minorities "national" health care for those that manage to avoid the Planned Parenthood Clinics.
I will not insult your intelligence by asking you to write one of these politicians. I won't apologize for mentioning the similarities between our current leadership and present and past oligarchies and dictatorships. I don't have a "magic bullet". (NOTE: I used to encourage hunters to come together, and loggers to make alliances with fishermen, and for dog owners to work with cockfighters, and for rural residents to work with the urban residents that recreated in the rural places, all for their mutual best interests but I was either laughed at or attacked by all sorts of "nice people" from veterinarians to biologists. At a recent Conference of Gamefowl Breeders (people whose families have raised and fought chickens for centuries all over the world) a very distinguished man asked me to suggest groups they could make alliances with and I said I would get back to him. I
never did because I could no longer think of any that might welcome working together with any others to defend their rights and the use of their private property (i.e. the chickens) where local laws would and should be able to regulate such activities with the consent of the local community.)
I will apologize for not having anything concrete and positive to recommend. Let it suffice to say that things are bad and getting worse. This disturbing trend is enabled by allowing ourselves to be diverted to all these illusions: we are literally taking our eye off the pea and watching the hands of the carnival swindler as he asks, "under which shell is the pea?" Like the "rube" about to be fleeced, rural Americans and others concerned with freedom must understand that caution is the order of the day.
The first step is to stop succumbing to all these illusions: the second step is to clearly observe and understand what is happening. Then ask yourself, "Why is it happening?" Last but not least ask yourself, "What can I do about it?" When you answer that last question and if you either conclude there is nothing you can do, or you'll be darned if you will help fellow animal owners like cockfighters or trappers or loggers or ranchers or farmers or private property defenders, or the "other" party, or handgun owners, etc.: then you might as well forget about freedom. If, on the other hand, you see all these groups as fellow Americans with families and
concerns like yours; and you can envision a Constitutional Republic where we tolerate and help each other and live and work together for the benefit of all: then you have just signed up and like the "Few Good Men" of the Marine Corps you have just joined an elite group that deals with reality and not illusions.
