Tea Parties

[Caligastia Lanonandek]

I watched the Glenn Beck party at the Alamo with Ted Nugent and also the Hannity Party in Georgia. I was heartened to see a mix of races in the crowds also as well as a large number (thousands) of like minded souls.

The 10th Amendment Resolution in Oklahoma has gone to the democrat governor. He's billed as a person who is a go along to get along type - but we'll see.

Also noteworthy is that the tea parties weren't just republican affairs - there were democrats there too.

Unfortunately, I don't think they will result in anything positive.
The code says Obama divides the nation. This has already occurred. I've commented that when conservatives take to the streets - real trouble isn't far behind. Yet, more than anything else, congress is populated by a corruption of spirit that just doesn't care.

Hannity and crowd are functioning under the theory that they'll take congress back by the next election 20 months away. By that time, the damage will have been done and it'll be too late.

I'm working under the Jeffersonian theory that when the first amendment fails, the second amendment becomes operational.

Predictably, the communist media is trying to ignore the tea parties and those that aren't are spinning it to right wing nuts.
We should note that they did successfully create Obama's nomination and enough to get him into office. So they shouldn't be ignored. This corrupted voice has influence with those who refuse to think for themselves.

Tea parties were covered in the communist media by Jon Stewart on "The Daily Show" tonight.

I saw a tea party outside of the Krispy Kreme on my way to work, and initially wondered whether Krispy Kreme even served tea...

An Obama spokesman returned His comment on the tea parties - HE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THEM in about 100 cities.

Translation = 1 finger salute.

[Caligastia Lanonandek]

the numbers for the national tea parties is now being given at hundreds of thousands
of thousands

Pelosi says they were orchestrated by rich right wingers who don't want to pay higher taxes.
Pure BS. But this comes from a woman funded by the billionaire commie Soros

So the single finger is flipping out

About four years ago, my nephew gave a single tea bag of his favorite tea. For some reason I kept putting off consuming this tea. I wanted to wait for a special occasion. Well last night in the last four minutes before midnight, after I got to the house, I finally did it, celebrating by myself, while watching Glen Beck & Ted Nugent.

The word 'secession' is now in play. It's the obvious conclusion for the 10th Amendment Resolutions in State Legislatures. Congress will not obey the Constitution and is set upon the course of enslavement for the United States. Lacking that willingness to obey the law, secession and/or civil war are the obvious conclusions.

The next issue is force of arms and whether the military will obey the black messiah when he sends whites out to kill other whites. Those who believe there won't be a race element in this are naive.

As could be expected, some have decried the use of the word secession. More noteworthy though are the massive sounds of silence from Congress.

The Communists are spinning this to be about people not wanting to pay taxes. The true side of it is out of control spending from self aggrandizing non representatives and their ambitions for absolute power. Taxes result from this.

Cal, you were right - again.

FBI Spied on TEA Party Americans: homelandsecurityus.com/?p=2659

The latest estimates I have seen say there were Tea Parties in over 800 cities, with over 300,000 people attending.

The link is to NEIN (NorthEast Intelligence Network) although the url name is homelandsecurityus.com it is NOT the DHS Dept of Homeland Security. This article was exclusive to NEIN and Canada Free Press. They state that the article information is from a current FBI agent who is very concerned for America. The information was to be gathered covertly.

From the article:

"Even as average Americans were planning to get out in towns and cities to demonstrate against Big Government and Big Taxes, Federal Bureau of Intelligence Investigation (FBI) surveillance was being unleashed upon them. In fact, unsuspecting Tax Day TEA Party participants were being closely watched during the demonstration planning stages in a covert operation that began on or about March 23, 2009."

...

“Listen to what I am saying,” stated the source during an interview with Doug Hagmann, founder (NEIN). “The Department of Homeland Security Intelligence Assessment that is receiving so much attention is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, and the true patriotic citizens of this country are on the Titanic. This is what bothers me. But is goes far beyond that assessment. There have been very significant changes made over the last few years that redirect the focus and assets of the intelligence community internally. These changes have greatly accelerated under this administration, and the threats have been redefined to include those who used to be patriots. It’s not only chilling but absolutely insulting to God-fearing Americans.”

Apparently, the info gathered was placed on a database that only 2 of the 14 intelligence networks have access to.

I forgot to add this part.

"The source stated this correspondence termed the TEA parties “political demonstrations,” and added that the dissemination of the directive was very tightly controlled. “Not all agents were privy to this correspondence,” stated the source, who compared the dissemination to an older “Do Not File” classification."


You should read the entire article.

The Washington Times has a great editorial on this.

Politicizing Intelligence: www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/apr/21/politicizing-intelligence-the-government-is-target/

At the end of the article it says:

"This abuse of power goes far beyond any of the charges leveled at the Bush administration, but civil liberties groups that were quick to castigate former President George W. Bush have been deafeningly silent as Americans' First Amendment freedoms of speech and association come under assault. That legitimate political differences can become the justification for official action is the type of thing we would expect to see in Iran or North Korea, not the United States."

Oklahoma Governor Brad Henry vetoed the sovereignty resolution saying it was bad for OK:

…In a statement released today, Henry said that “there is no need to spend valuable legislative time on a resolution expressing support for any particular amendment or constitutional right”

Here is the full veto message:

“Without question, the state of Oklahoma and its leaders support the U.S. Constitution and the rights it guarantees to the states and their citizens, and there is no need to spend valuable legislative time on a resolution expressing support for any particular amendment or constitutional right. Furthermore, HJR 1003 alleges, without offering any evidence or explanation, that past and current U.S. leaders may have violated the Constitution and committed crimes against the states and the country. HJR 1003 also implies that the state should reject federal tax dollars paid to Washington, DC, by Oklahoma citizens, an act that would prevent our tax dollars from being used in Oklahoma to address critical needs in transportation, education, health care, law enforcement, veterans programs and many other vital services beneficial to our state. In short, HJR 1003 could be detrimental to Oklahoma and does not serve the state or its citizens in any positive manner.”

Had the governor signed the resolution, it would have been distributed to the President, the U.S. Congress and other federal offices as an official statement from the state of Oklahoma.

Henry is a Democrat. The whole 'tax dollars' issue is a red herring. There is no reason it has to be detrimental to Oklahoma if they're smart about it. Colorado found a way of dealing with this back in the 90s. The bill never went anywhere, but it solves this 'problem'.

www.gmu.edu/departments/economics/wew/articles/95/states-R.htm

Colorado State Senator Charles Duke, one of the authors of Colorado's Tenth Amendment Resolution, has introduced a bill titled "State Sovereignty Act." If it passes the legislature, it would require all persons liable for any federal tax, that's a component of the highway users fund, to remit those taxes directly to the Colorado State Department of Revenue. The money would be deposited in an escrow account called the "Federal Tax Fund" and remitted monthly to the IRS along with a list of payees and respective amounts paid.

If the federal government imposes sanctions on Colorado for failing to carry out an unconstitutional mandate, and penalizes the state by withholding funds due, say for highway construction, the State Sovereignty Act prohibits the State Treasurer from remitting any funds in the escrow account to the IRS. Instead, Colorado would impose a surcharge on the account to continue the highway construction.

Any chance there are enough votes to override the veto?

It seems doubtful Rob. The republican's barely have a majority in the senate and the democrats are already bought out by Obama

Contrast and compare the peaceful "right wing" TEA Parties with the union workers and left wing demonstrations for May Day:

May Day turns violent in Turkey, Germany, Greece

And the DHS is warning law enforcement to be on the lookout for ... who
oh, yeah, peaceful law-abiding citizens who disagree with the left's thirst for power over said citizens.
