CHRISTMAS GREETINGS

I would like to wish each and every member of the Northwoods Patriots a blessed Christmas season.

We have much work to do in the days ahead.

I look forward to working together to assure freedom and liberty in our neck of the woods!

Please take the time to keep up with our www.northwoodspatriots.blogspot.com
site where news is posted and you can add to the discussion daily.

Enjoy the beauty and splendor of the weather that God has sent our way.

Reflect on the gifts he has so generously blessed us with everyday, here in America.

Pray that we will be wise enough to hear His wishes and be guided by Him in the days to come.

I am thankful for the friends I made in 2009. New friends, who although we had been living amongst each other for years, did not know what we shared and the similarities of what we hold so dear in our hearts.

I will always remember 2009 as a great and historic time in my life and the in the history of this great nation.

It was a year when God said enough, and millions of Americans heard him speak, loud and clear.
To have a purpose in life is so rewarding.

For me, I am ready to fight for God as He summons us to take back the land that He has shed so many graces upon.
It is such a worthy cause, and it is just and right.

With right on our side, we cannot loose, and by our example it is my prayer that millions more Americans hear His call and turn from whatever association they have that keep them from defending the fundamentals our great nation was founded on.

May tonight be a night of reflection on the greatest gift God ever sent to us, His son Jesus Christ.
May you feel His love and care for you, and may it warm your heart on this beautiful snowy Christmas season.

HEALTH CARE STATISTICS

A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.

Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:
U.S. 65%
England 46%
Canada 42%
Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment within six months:
U.S. 93%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:
U.S. 90%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:
U.S. 77%
England 40%
Canada 43%
Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
U.S. 71
England 14
Canada 18
Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":
U.S. 12%
England 2%
Canada 6%

I don't know about you, but I don't want "Universal Healthcare" comparable to England or Canada .

Moreover, it was Sen. Harry Reid who said,
"Elderly Americans must learn to accept the inconveniences of old age."

SHIP HIS butt TO CANADA OR ENGLAND !

NOTE TO SENATOR BEN NELSON

Dear Senator Nelson;

I strongly urge you to join me in opposing Sen. Reid’s version of health reform. It is not withstanding with our Constitution!

Threats against Senators is close to treason!

Any plan that included an individual mandate or a public option amounts to a government takeover of healthcare and must be opposed!
NO MEDICARE BUYIN OPTIONS AT 55!
Don’t let them try to “buy you off”! Stand your ground!

This appears to be a COMPLETE takeover of our
Republic by a bunch of Socialistic people (CZARS)

And healthcare is just the sheep’s clothing to actually
disguise what their real intention is!
TELL THEM NO!
Defend our Constitution that you swore to uphold and “they”
are trying to work around and destroy!

Please, see what is happening! And stand firm! We are behind you!

Listen to the voice of middle-class Americans who are demanding you REJECT this mad dash toward socialized health care.

STAND YOUR GROUND!!! Thank You!

REPUBLICAN ACTION TO TAKE

http://teapartynewswatch.com/open-call-to-congressional-republicans/

Open Call to Congressional Republicans
Written by admin TEA Party News, What Can We Do? Dec 13, 2009

By JB Williams
It’s official folks, with the Democrats steamrolling over the GOP filibuster intended to stop another TRILLION in wasteful spending yesterday, Republicans in congress have been handed their hat once again.

Do you republicans not know that you are completely irrelevant? Or do you just not have the spine to take a real stand? Democrats are making asses out of all of you!

This is NOT a game! The future of freedom and liberty hang in the balance and most Americans know it! How did you miss it?

Republican congressional votes have NO meaning today. So what, if you are “on-record” voting against the global socialist leap off the leftist cliff? Unless you find a way to derail that speeding locomotive, you will soon burn in a Marxist hell with the rest of us.

When American freedom and liberty are gone and every American is forced into a financial corner where socialism looks better than starvation, it won’t matter who voted against it!

With the loss of the filibuster, Congressional Republicans have only ONE play left to stop the coming train wreck, when Obamunism runs head-on into millions of increasingly angry American patriots in the streets. Only Congressional Republicans can stop that clash!

Congressional Republicans MUST WALK OUT immediately!

You must pack your bags, close your offices, refuse to enter the congressional chambers for one more pretend vote in which the Democrats will hand you your hat once again.

If Republicans want to harness the power of the Tea Party – 912 – and Town Hall patriots across this land, you can do it in three simple steps…

Shut down congress by walking out and refusing to return. Can Democrats even call something to a floor vote without a single republican in the chamber? Would they even dare try it?

Return home and spend time listening to angry patriots in as many town hall meetings as you can schedule. You will earn your pay at a town hall, whereas attending another congressional vote is worse than a waste of time. It’s counter-productive. Go home and listen, don’t talk!

Grow the backbone to walk away from all of your past mistakes, and line up behind the ONLY people who can put you back in power, the American patriots who stand for a constitutional government and against the current steamroller to socialism.

You have only one other option… to keep doing what you’re doing, which amounts to being a big part of the problem, instead of a part of the solution.

WALK OUT TODAY!
GO HOME!

And set up as many town hall meetings in your home districts as you can fit into your schedule. Earn your paycheck by meeting with the people, so that you can once again begin to represent the will of the people. Don’t talk – LISTEN!

Tell Democrats that if they are determined to lead this country into the toilet, they will have to do it all alone without a single republican in the chamber when they do it, one lousy piece of anti-American legislation after another.

Republicans have a very clear choice to make and you had better make it fast! The nation doesn’t need two parties full of leftist losers. Republicans willing to stay in session should be seen not as “RINOs,” but as Democrats… and they will be.

You can take a stand with the 70% of Americans who DO NOT want any form of Cap & Trade, Global Socialized Medicine, a One World Government, the Copenhagen Climate Scam, Amnesty for Illegal’s, or trillion dollar payoffs to leftist organizations and labor unions which only enrich the leftist juggernaut now running roughshod over the nation. Only 25% “strongly approve” of Obamunism as of today… It’s time for you to strike!

Severe situations demand severe action!

We are out of time for any other option. The Tea Party – 912 and Town Hall people will not – I repeat – WILL NOT line up behind Republicans too spineless to put a stop to the hourly destruction of this nation.

Republicans have ONLY one way to regain any form of power, and that is to toss out the politically correct nonsense of the past and line up behind the millions of patriots begging for action across this country!

Republicans either line-up behind the American right in a hurry, or their party is finished, as is this nation.

WALK OUT IMMEDIATELY! – And DO NOT RETURN until you have control of congress next November!

I call upon EVERY Washington DC Republican to walk out NOW!

This is NOT an issue item! This is NOT a circus stunt sideshow. WALK OUT and STAY OUT! Refuse to participate in the rape of this great nation!

If you continue to sit in that chamber and watch the gang rape of this nation, you are NO BETTER than the rapists! GET OUT of that chamber NOW! Let the American people see the rapists clearly!

God help us all if YOU lack the courage to do what must be done to save this nation!

TO OUR REPUBLICAN SENATORS: I OBJECT

http://www.redstate.com/ -- POSTED 12/12/09 12:25 P.M.

This is a great article from http://www.redstate.com/ with some important information on the procedures in the U.S. Senate that can be used to stop any passage of the health care bill and other bad pieces of legislation.
Posted by Erick Erickson (Profile)

“If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

The Founding Fathers created a Republic, but 60 Senators are poised to take it away. With the pending disaster of the passage in the Senate of a bill nationalizing one sixth of the U.S. economy and our entire healthcare system at a cost of over $2.5 trillion, we are faced with a crucial question: are the Republican senators using every means at their disposal to stop this looming, tyrannical abuse of power? Unfortunately, the answer appears to be “no.”

The Senate, unlike the House of Representatives, has parliamentary rules and procedures that give the minority the ability to stall legislation. In fact, unlike the House, the minority have the ability to virtually paralyze the Senate. Doing so is not something we would want or expect for every bad bill that comes through Congress, but the proposed healthcare legislation is probably the worst piece of legislation ever considered by the United States Congress. It is the most intrusive, most damaging, most costly, most dangerous bill to the economic and personal freedom and liberty of individual Americans that Congress has ever considered. If there is any bill that deserves being stopped by shutting down the Senate, it is this one.

There are a whole series of parliamentary maneuvers that could be used by Republican senators to stop this bill. There is a hard backstop to the current process (Christmas). The Republicans’ goal should be to prevent Reid from passing the bill before that time. If he goes past Christmas and is forced to adjourn or recess, the momentum will shift in favor of those opposing the bill.

How could this be done?

To start with, they should stop constantly agreeing to “unanimous consent” requests from the Democrats. Senate Republicans, to date, have allowed Democrats, by unanimous consent, to process 10 amendments. The amendments that have been accepted – Democrat amendments – did not make the over 2000-page atrocity any better. The Republican strategy of trying to pass their own “message” amendments carries no message unless you consider “no strategy to kill the bill” a message.

There are no amendments that could possibly make this bill a palatable piece of legislation – and any amendments the Republicans get passed that supposedly make the bill “better” may just make it easier for the Democrats to get final passage. If the Republicans want the news media to cover what they are doing to educate the American people even further about the atrociousness of this bill, they have to create drama on the floor of the Senate. And the only way to do that is through an all-out fight with no holds barred. They need to look like Braveheart, fighting to the end to save freedom. Because, in fact, it is our very freedom and liberty that is at stake.

The most powerful words in the Senate are “I object.” Senate Republicans should have been shouting those two words on the Senate floor early and often from the moment this bill was considered, instead of the complete silence we have heard – other than to constantly agree to conduct business through unanimous consent. Here are just a few ways those words can (and should) be used in a very effective way:

The rules of the Senate require that a quorum be present to transact business. A quorum is 51 Senators. In most instances, outside of roll call votes, there are no more than 4 Senators on the Senate floor. If a Republican Senator suggested the absence of a quorum, Democrats could not transact business on the bill. It is a common courtesy to allow the quorum call to be dispensed with, without requiring 51 members to show up on the Senate floor (to get 51 Senators to appear without a roll call vote is very time consuming). When the Democrats ask unanimous consent that the quorum call be dispensed with, the Republican should immediately shout “I object.”

In 1988, when the Democrats were attempting to pass campaign finance reform, and Republicans refused to help them make a quorum, it took 53 hours for the quorum call to be dispensed with. If at any moment at least 50 Democrats are not on the floor, a Republican Senator could again suggest the absence of a quorum and start the process over again, causing huge delays in the legislative process being able to move forward.

No amendment can automatically or without substantial delay receive a roll call vote without every member of the Senate agreeing. Again, the Senate generally operates on collegial courtesy, but a $2.5 trillion courtesy is too much. Once an amendment is pending, it only takes one Senator to step in front of this freight train. If a Senator objects to ending debate on the amendment or having the amendment set aside, the majority must file cloture on the amendment. First cloture has to ripen and it cannot ripen until the next day’s session of the Senate, so that kills a day of the majority’s time. Assuming 60 Senators vote in favor of ending debate, the Senate is then required to spend 30 hours of its session time before voting on final passage for the amendment. Suffice it to say, if the Republicans had continuously objected from the start, the ten amendments they allowed the majority to process would have taken more days than Harry Reid has on the Senate calendar.

Senators have an obligation to protect the Constitution and the budget and points of order can be raised on both. Many constitutional scholars have pointed out that numerous bill provisions, particularly the individual mandate, are unconstitutional. Under the Senate’s rules, constitutional points of order are debatable. The Republicans should be constantly bringing up constitutional points of order, one after another, on every questionable provision. Reid would presumably be forced to file cloture on the points of order and another three days could be burned up on each one.

The healthcare bill violates § 425(a)(2) of the Budget Act, which prohibits consideration of any legislation that contains an unfunded intergovernmental mandate in excess of $69 million per year. If the point of order is raised and sustained, a simple majority may vote to waive the point of order. But the waiver is debatable and thus would presumably require 60 votes to cloture the motion to waive. This would require them to produce 60 votes at a time when they do not have their deal wrapped up yet, once again burning up three days.

On every vote, including on constantly raised points of order, the Republicans should be objecting that the vote total is incomplete – the Democratic Chair will rule that it is complete and the Republicans then appeal and once again force a vote, delaying the process again and again.

The Republicans should be offering one amendment after another on all of their favorite issues such as guns, abortion, elimination of the death tax, ending the TARP program, and gay marriage in the District of Columbia. Nothing connotes trench warfare like non-germane amendments on hot-button social issues. When you look back at all of the great filibusters of past decades, they almost always involved non-germane, explosive amendments on contentious social and other issues. Republicans should be offering hundreds of such amendments on every topic and using the rules to force votes on every single one. And the Republicans should be forcing the reading of the bill and every single amendment, not consenting to waiving that requirement.
Some might argue that Republicans should not look “obstructionist.” But they are wrong – the vast majority of Americans don’t like this bill and don’t want it to pass. The Tea Party movement was the upheaval of millions of ordinary Americans who are scared and angry about the out-of-control growth of the federal government, federal spending, and the national debt.

They want to see the Republicans obstructing passage of this bill and if they think the Republicans are not fighting with every tool they have at their disposal, then any advantage that the Republicans think they will get in next year’s elections from such a bill being passed will evaporate. Conservatives will mount challenges to what they see as weak Republicans, just like what happened in New York’s special congressional race, helping Democrats eek out wins. And other conservative will stay home (like they did in 2008) rather than support GOP incumbents who did not fight.

The view coming out of the Senate of the Republicans has the appearance of business-as-usual – colloquies, speeches, and unanimous consent agreements. It does not convey the sense of urgency that should come with an issue of this magnitude and it does not provide any assurance to the public, including most especially the conservative base that is the heart of the Republican Party, that Republican Senators are willing to do everything it takes to stop this bill. If they don’t starting acting forcefully quickly and immediately, not only will they allow the country’s future to be unalterably damaged, they will be hastening the end to their own careers in the elections coming down the road faster than they can imagine.
Finally, I often hear that Senators express frustration when we dare to tell them how to fight, and that their frequent refrain is “you just don’t understand how the Senate works.” Actually some of us understand better than they do how it should work (whether they agree with every particular parliamentary tactic described or not), and the current frustration they feel with us will be nothing like what they may feel if they don’t stop this bill at all costs and act to preserve our Republic.

“A Republic, if you can keep it.”— Benjamin Franklin

CLIMATE GATE

ClimateGate is just the beginning of public release of what has been known for years:

Now that the veracity of the UK's Hadley Climate Research Unit (CRU) data on AGW has been debunked as a fraud, the alarmists are saying that the IPCC has another pure and pristine source of climate data, NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, (GISS.)

Guess what? The GISS data appears to suffer the same kind of problems that were found in the CRU data: missing data, artificially "cooked" data, "homogenized" data creating reversed temperature trends.

Read and study this:http://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/12/11/giss-raw-station-data-before-and-after/

That whole Copenhagen event is becoming more farcical everyday. One could just laugh it off, were it not for the economical devastation that could result.

CAP AND TRADE EXTORTION

Steel makers in Europe just have to threaten to move their jobs to India to receive free carbon credits. Middle class workers may lose their jobs as companies relocate.

This web article uses the words extortion and hostage.

FAX TO CONGRESS

THAT IS THE SOUND OF CONGRESS FLUSHING OUR TAX MONEY DOWN THE TOILET! STOP PULLING THE HANDLE OF THE MONEY CLOSET!

YOU ARE HEARBY NOT AUTHORIZED IT INCREASE THE DEBT LIMIT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

AND DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT BACKLOADING IT ON THE SPENDING BILL FOR OUR TROOPS!

CHRISTMAS IDEAS

It has come to my attention that many of you are upset that folks are taking My name out of the season. I don't care what you call the day. If you want to celebrate My birth, just GET ALONG AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER.

Now, having said that let Me go on. If it bothers you that the town in which you live doesn't allow a scene depicting My birth, then just get rid of a couple of Santas and snowmen and put in a small Nativity scene on your own front lawn If all My followers did that there wouldn't be any need for such a scene on the town square because there would be many of them all around town.

Stop worrying about the fact that people are calling the tree a holiday tree, instead of a Christmas tree. It was I who made all trees. You can remember Me anytime you see any tree. Decorate a grape vine if you wish: I actually spoke of that one in a teaching, explaining who I am in relation to you and what each of our tasks were. If you have forgotten that one, look up John 15: 1 - 8.

If you want to give Me a present in remembrance of My birth here is my wish list. Choose something from it:

1. Instead of writing protest letters objecting to the way My birthday is being celebrated, write letters of love and hope to soldiers away from home. They are terribly afraid and lonely this time of year. I know, they tell Me all the time.

2. Visit someone in a nursing home. You don't have to know them personally. They just need to know that someone cares about them.

3. Instead of writing the President complaining about the wording on the cards his staff sent out this year, why don't you write and tell him that you'll be praying for him and his family this year. Then follow up... It will be nice hearing from you again.

4. Instead of giving your children a lot of gifts you can't afford and they don't need, spend time with them. Tell them the story of My birth, and why I came to live with you down here. Hold them in your arms and remind them that I love them.

5. Pick someone that has hurt you in the past and forgive him or her.

6. Did you know that someone in your town will attempt to take their own life this season because they feel so alone and hopeless? Since you don't know who that person is, try giving everyone you meet a warm smile; it could make the difference.

7. Instead of nit picking about what the retailer in your town calls the holiday, be patient with the people who work there. Give them a warm smile and a kind word. Even if they aren't allowed to wish you a " Merry Christmas" that doesn't keep you from wishing them one. Then stop shopping there on Sunday. If the store didn't make so much money on that day they'd close and let their employees spend the day at home with their families.

8. If you really want to make a difference, support a missionary-- especially one who takes My love and Good News to those who have never heard My name.

9. Here's a good one. There are individuals and whole families in your town who not only will have no "Christmas" tree, but neither will they have any presents to give or receive. If you don't know them, buy some food and a few gifts and give them to the Salvation Army or some other charity which believes in Me and they will make the delivery for you.

10. Finally, if you want to make a statement about your belief in and loyalty to Me, then behave like a Christian. Don't do things in secret that you wouldn't do in My presence. Let people know by your actions that you are one of mine.

Don't worry about Me,, Our Father looks out for Me,, as He Looks out for You. Just love Me and do what I have told you to do. I'll take care of all the rest. Check out the list above and get to work; time is short. I'll help you, but the ball is now in your court. And do have a most blessed Christmas with all those whom you love and remember:
WE LOVE YOU,
JESUS

SENATE VOTES ON ABORTION

http://www.aclj.org/OnTheTv/?aP=198b2b13-031e-41c2-a590-94767077e014&mmType=4&email=bk951@verizon.net&guid=E0A8FF71-D1B3-49EC-8EAD-D413E4705BEF

12/9/09

Please read the following from the ACLJ--AMERICAN CENTER FOR LAW AND JUSTICE

Breaking news out of Washington: The Senate has voted down (54-45) the amendment prohibiting the federal funding - your tax dollars - of abortion within health care reform legislation. View my latest video report immediately!

We've been engaged in this issue from the very start, as you know - and simply put, this rejection of such a critical pro-life measure is a callous disregard for the protection of innocent human life. Just a few weeks ago, the House passed the Stupak-Pitts Amendment - calling for a prohibition of abortion funding. But now, in the Senate, by a handful of votes, a similar amendment brought by Senators Ben Nelson and Orrin Hatch has failed.

The ACLJ's Government Affairs team, as always, is right in the middle of the fight to preserve life ... and that battle continues. The next step? We'll have one more chance to defeat abortion funding in health care legislation during what's called the ''Joint Reconciliation'' process.

For details, be sure to watch my brand-new online video report now. For all the latest, tune in daily to Jay Sekulow Live! and read our press release about this and other key issues.Thanks for all you do - your prayers and your support - to keep us advancing life and liberty on your behalf.

HEALTH CARE RATIONING

Link to National Right to Life--The health care bill in the Senate faces elimination and will not permit seniors to use their own funds / resources to pay for additioanl health care.

Effectively this takes away their right to spend their own money to save their own lives.

Take My Son!

Take my Son!

A wealthy man and his son loved to collect rare works of art. They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael. They would often sit together and admire the great works of art..When the Vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war. He was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was notified and grieved deeply for his only son.

About a month later, just before Christmas, there was a knock at the door. A young man stood at the door with a large package in his hands..He said, 'Sir, you don't know me, but I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and he died instantly... He often talked about you, and your love for art.' The young man held out this package. 'I know this isn't much. I'm not really a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this.

'The father opened the package. It was a portrait of his son, painted by the young man.

He stared in awe at the way the soldier had captured the personality of his son in the painting. The father was so drawn to the eyes that his own eyes welled up with tears. He thanked the young man and offered to pay him for the picture... 'Oh, no sir, I could never repay what your son did for me.It's a gift.'

The father hung the portrait over his mantle. Every time visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected.

The man died a few months later. There was to be a great auction of his paintings. Many influential people gathered, excited over seeing the great paintings and having an opportunity to purchase one for their collection.On the platform sat the painting of the son. The auctioneer pounded his gavel. 'We will start the bidding with this picture of the son. Who will bid for this picture?

'There was silence..Then a voice in the back of the room shouted, 'We want to see the famous paintings.. Skip this one.

'But the auctioneer persisted.. 'Will somebody bid for this painting? Who will start the bidding? $100, $200?'Another voice angrily. 'We didn't come to see this painting. We came to see the Van Gogh's, the Rembrandts. Get on with the Real bids!

'But still the auctioneer continued. 'The son! The son! Who'll take the son?'Finally, a voice came from the very back of the room. It was the longtime gardener of the man and his son. 'I'll give $10 for the painting..' Being a poor man, it was all he could afford.'We have $10, who will bid $20?'

'Give it to him for $10. Let's see the masters.

'The crowd was becoming angry.. They didn't want the picture of the son. They wanted the more worthy investments for their collections. The auctioneer pounded the gavel. 'Going once, twice, SOLD for $10!

'A man sitting on the second row shouted, 'Now let's get on with the collection! 'The auctioneer laid down his gavel. 'I'm sorry, the auction is over.' 'What about the paintings?'' I am sorry. When I was called to conduct this auction, I was told of a secret stipulation in the will.... I was not allowed to reveal that stipulation until this time. Only the painting of the son would be auctioned. Whoever bought that painting would inherit the entire estate, including the paintings. The man who took the son gets everything! 'God gave His son 2,000 years ago to die on the cross. Much like the auctioneer, His message today is: 'The son, the son, who'll take the son?'

Because, you see, whoever takes the Son gets everything.

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, WHO SO EVER BELIEVETH, SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE...THAT'S LOVE.

GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTH CARE

TEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT HARRY REID'S PLAN FOR GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE:

CAP & TRADE SECTION 304

http://www.americanissuesproject.org/blogs/aip/archive/2009/07/08/if-you-don-t-hate-the-cap-and-trade-bill-let-me-show-you-section-304.aspx

Check out the link above. This informs you about potential EPA regulations should the Senate pass the House version of Cap and Trade.

11/20/09
We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that has passed the House of Representatives and being considered by the Senate. We are ready to join the next march on Washington! This Congress and whoever on their staffs that write this junk are truly out to destroy the middle class of the USA ....

A License required for your house...no longer just for cars and mobile homes....

Thinking about selling your house - A look at H.R. 2454 (Cap and trade bill) This is unbelievable! Only the beginning from this administration! Home owners take note & tell your friends and relatives who are home owners!

Beginning one year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this Act. H.R. 2454, the "Cap & Trade" bill passed by the House of Representatives, if also passed by the Senate, will be the largest tax increase any of us has ever experienced.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that in just a few years the average cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per year. No one is excluded. However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in their wallets, you can be sure these voters get a tax refund (even if they pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost.

Thus, you Mr. and Mrs. Middle Class America will have to pay even more since additional tax dollars will be needed to bail out everyone else.

But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read) has many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year from now you won't be able to sell your house. Yes, you read that right. The caveat is (there always is a caveat) that if you have enough money to make required major upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if not, then forget it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are included.

In effect, this bill prevents you from selling your home without the permission of the EPA administrator. To get this permission, you will have to have the energy efficiency of your home measured. Then the government will tell you what your new energy efficiency requirement is and you will be forced to make modifications to your home under the retrofit provisions of this Act to comply with the new energy and water efficiency requirements.

Then you will have to get your home measured again and get a license (called a "label" in the Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your efficiency rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label on your refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough rating, you can't sell.

And, the EPA administrator is authorized to raise the standards every year, even above the automatic energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The EPA administrator, appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade program (AKA the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is authorized to make any future changes to the regulations and standards he alone determines to be in the government's best interest. Requirements are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress; then the Administrator can set much tougher new standards every year.

The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency for private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 Building Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to increase the energy efficiency of all existing homes across America.

Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this Act. You had better sell soon, because the standards will be raised each year and will be really hard (i.e., ex$pen$ive) to meet in a few years.

The Act allows the government to give you a grant of several thousand dollars to comply with the retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain energy efficiency levels. But, wait, the State can set additional requirements on who qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect requirements such as "can't have an income of more than $50K per year", "home selling price can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target the upper middle class (and that's YOU) and prevent them from qualifying for the grants.

Most of us won't get a dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the retrofit out of our own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you can believe in." Sect. 204 Building Energy Performance Labeling Program establishes a labeling program that for each individual residence will identify the achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent of the residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act."
This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S. must be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each year to enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department of Energy will get an additional $20M each year to help enforce the labeling program. Some of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher standards each year.

Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be required to post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and will not be allowed to sell your home without having this label. And, just like your car license, you will probably be required to get a new label every so often - maybe every year. But, the government estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency of your home should only cost about $200 each time.
Remember what they said about the auto smog inspections when they first
started: that in California it would only cost $15. That was when the program started. Now the cost is about $50 for the inspection and certificate; a 333% increase. Expect the same from the home labeling program.

Sect. 304 Greater Energy Efficiency in Building Codes establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the National Building Code and mandates at 304(d) that 1 year after enactment of this Act, all state and local jurisdictions must adopt the National Building Code energy efficiency provisions or must obtain a certification from the federal government that their state and/or local codes have been brought into full compliance with the National Building Code energy efficiency standards.

CONGRESSIONAL HEALTH CARE

Earlier this year the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a two-page amendment courtesy of Republican Tom Coburn that would require all Members and their staffs to enroll in any new government-run health plan.

Three cheers for Congressman John Fleming of Louisiana!
Congressman John Fleming ( Louisiana physician) has proposed anamendment that would require congressmen and senators to take the same healthcare plan they force on us (under proposed legislation they are curiously exempt). Congressman Fleming is encouraging people to go on his Website andsign his petition (very simple - just first, last and email).

It takes than a minute to sign up to require our congressmen and senators to drink at the same trough!

You may do just that at:

http://fleming.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=55&sectiontree=29,55

Please urge as many people as you can to do the same!

If Congress forces this on the American people, the Congressmen should have to accept the same level of health care for themselves and theirfamilies. To do otherwise is the height of hypocrisy!
Please pass this on!!

TEA PARTY -- DOCUMENTARY FILM

As a fellow believer in limited government, I am excited to tell you about an opportunity to be a part of history and be one of the few in the country to see an exclusive webcast sneak preview of an amazing movie tracking what has been a historic year for the conservative movement:
TEA PARTY: The Documentary Film.

As you know, April 15 saw over 1,000,000 Americans attend over 1,000 tea parties. On July 4 and July 17th there were hundreds more. August, 2009 will be known forever as the Summer of Protest.

And on September 12, 2009, hundreds of thousands of grassroots Americans marched in bold defiance of an overreaching government. The sea of people -- composed of freedom-loving citizens from every state and every background -- flooded Pennsylvania Ave. As Washington's "finest" lobbyists, bureaucrats and politicians watched, the American public boldly told them, "No more." No more bailouts of failed businesses; no more burdensome taxes; no more job killing regulations; no more intrusion into the lives of individuals.

On November 5th, on just 4 days notice, tens of thousands Americans again came to Washington to be heard...and the movement continues to grow.

But how did this movement begin? What propelled it from a few dozen local Tea Parties to hundreds of thousands of activists marching on the Capitol?

Now you can experience the story of the movement that's driving our national dialogue against big government spending and a Constitution under assault.

On Monday, November 23, at 2 pm select Americans -- hopefully including you -- will gather in front of their computer screens to watch the captivating 28 minute special webcast Sneak Preview of TEA PARTY: The Documentary Film. This exhilarating documentary captures the mood and intensity of the Tea Party movement. It follows the struggles of five individuals and their transformation from hometown rally goers and rally organizers to national activists taking part in the 9/12 Taxpayer March on Washington.

In the process, it uncovers the core principles that unite members of the movement: constitutionally limited government, personal responsibility, and fiscal restraint at all levels of government.If you abide by similar values and if you want to see America return to a government run by "WE THE PEOPLE," you won't want to miss the special Sneak Peek look at TEA PARTY: The Documentary Film. The exclusive webcast preview will begin with an introduction from 9/12 Organizer and FreedomWorks President Matt Kibbe, Editor of Red State Erick Erickson, TEA PARTY Documentary Producer Luke Livingston, and me, Dick Armey, Former House Majority Leader and FreedomWorks Chairman.

Be sure to stay tuned after the preview for a live question and answer session with four of the most influential members of the Tea Party movement. During the post-preview segment you will actually be able to ask the four panelists questions in real time.Do not miss the event that members of the Tea Party movement will be talking about for weeks.

In fact, the Sneak Peek offers a great opportunity to come together with local Tea Party activists. Celebrate the online preview of TEA PARTY: The Documentary Film by hosting a house party for the airing of the 28 minute Sneak Peek on Monday, November 23 at 2 pm. Or watch at work if you can. Whatever you do, do not miss this Sneak Peek. The future of the Tea Party movement is here.

Will you join us? To sign up to take part in this exclusive sneak peek webcast, click HERE. To find out more about the movie, click HERE.This is your chance to see the preview of this historic movie more than a week before its Washington, DC premier at the Ronald Reagan Center on December 2!

RULES FOR RADICALS -- SAUL ALINSKY

Meet Saul Alinsky – 1960s Chicago Radical
· Saul Alinsky is the Father of Community Organizing.
· Born in Chicago in 1909.
· Alinsky and Ed Chambers founded the Industrial Areas Foundation.
· IAF trains community organizers, like Barack Obama.
· Alinsky and Chambers specially target churches and seminaries – primarily Catholic.
· One of Alinsky’s students, Wade Rathke, founded ACORN in 1970.
· Hillary Clinton wrote a college thesis on Alinsky, “There is Only the Fight….”: An Analysis of the Alinsky Model.”
· Alinsky wrote the book Rules for Radicals in 1971.
· Organizing for POWER was an all-encompassing mission for him.
· Alinsky’s goal was an “Organization of Organizations,” comprised of labor
unions, youth groups, churches, etc., a lot like The Apollo Alliance that got Obama elected.
· In the preface of the book, Rules for Radicals, Alinsky gives special mention to:
“the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and
did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom --- Lucifer.”

Alinsky’s Rules for Effective Tactics
website: www.itvs.org/democraticpromis/legacy1.html

1) POWER is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
2) Never go outside the experience of your people. It may result in confusion, fear and retreat.
3) Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear and retreat.
4) Make the enemy live up to his/her own book of rules.
5) Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
6) A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
7) A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag
8) Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and actions and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.
9) The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
10) The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11) If you push a negative hard and deep enough, it will break through into its counterside.
12) The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
13) Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it.

The Apollo Alliance - For folks who watch Glenn Beck’s Show, you may have heard him refer to The Apollo Alliance . This is the hierarchy of organizations including “Social Justice” groups, organized Labor, and the Green Movement that worked endlessly for Obama’s election.

THANKS TO OUR TROOPS

XEROX IS STILL DOING SOMETHING COOL at this web site:

www.LetsSayThanks.com

You can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services.

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! It is FREE and it only takes a second. Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them. This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you.

Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do. We can never say enough thank you's. Thanks for taking to time to support our men and women over there even if you don't support the reason they are there!

This has been going on for several years, I hope the troops enjoy it.

ALABAMA JUDGE ROY MOORE

Some of you may be wondering what Judge Roy Moore has been doing since he was removed from the bench for refusing to remove the Ten Commandments from his courtroom wall. Please read the poem he wrote below.

Judge Moore was sued by the ACLU for displaying the Ten Commandments in his courtroom foyer. He has been stripped of his judgeship and now they are trying to strip his right to practice law in Alabama! The judge's poem sums it up quite well.

America the beautiful,
or so you used to be.
Land of the Pilgrims' pride;
I'm glad they'll never see.

Babies piled in dumpsters,
Abortion on demand,
Oh, sweet land of liberty;
your house is on the sand.

Our children wander aimlessly
poisoned by cocaine
choosing to indulge their lusts,
when God has said abstain

From sea to shining sea,
our Nation turns away
From the teaching of God's love
and a need to always pray

We've kept God in our
temples, how callous we have grown.
When earth is but His footstool,
and Heaven is His throne.

We've voted in a government
that's rotting at the core,
Appointing Godless Judges;
who throw reason out the door,

Too soft to place a killer
in a well deserved tomb,
But brave enough to kill a baby
before he leaves the womb.

You think that God's not
angry, that our land's a moral slum?
How much longer will He wait
before His judgment comes?

How are we to face our God,
from Whom we cannot hide?
What then is left for us to do,
but stem this evil tide?

If we who are His children,
will humbly turn and pray;
Seek His holy face
and mend our evil way:

Then God will hear from Heaven;
and forgive us of our sins,
He'll heal our sickly land
and those who live within.

But, America the Beautiful,
If you don't - then you will see,
A sad but Holy God
withdraw His hand from Thee.

~~Judge Roy Moore~~

IN GOD WE TRUST!

SENATE VOTES TO CONFIRM JUDGE DAVID HAMILTON

Sen. Harry Reid Clears Path for Anti-Jesus Pro-Allah Judge:

Vote Monday 11/16/09 – Please read the forwarded e-mail below,
or check out the Human Event.com link below.

http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=34337&keywords=david+hamilton

Make the 17 phone calls listed below, today, to these key "undecided" Senators.Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said in a floor statement Monday that he will likely file a procedural motion to clear the nomination of David Hamilton, an Indiana native nominated to serve on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. Hamilton is the Judge who ruled it's illegal to pray "in Jesus name" but totally legal to pray to Allah on the floor of the Indiana Legislature. His foolish ruling in Hinrichs v. Bosma was overturned (thanks in part to our legal aid to the Indiana Attorney General). He also ruled to hasten the abortion of unborn children, but that bad ruling was also overturned. Now Obama wants to reward Hamilton's anti-life anti-Jesus prejudice with promotion to the same appeals court that overruled him.

Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) wrote a letter to all Republicans on 30 Oct, asking for help in opposing Hamilton, who the Seventh Circuit Court rebuked for repeatedly "abusing his discretion," and for a speech Hamilton gave saying the judge's primary job is "write footnotes in the Constitution" for his own activist causes. To support Sessions and Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) who called for a filibuster, back in April & May 2009 nearly 700,000 fax petitions were sent to the full Senate against Hamilton.

All Republicans were persuaded to unite against Hamilton, earning all 7 minority votes to block him in the Judiciary Committee. But the committee majority Democrats voted to forward Hamilton to the full Senate, where his nomination sat quietly without action for seven months, until now...Judge Hamilton will face the full Senate, and the threat of filibuster by the pro-faith, pro-family Senator James Inhofe (R-OK).

To stop Hamilton, we need 40 strong Senate votes to stand with Senator Inhofe, to uphold his filibuster. If we fail, Hamilton will be promoted to the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, the same court that overruled his aggressive, anti-life, anti-liberty decisions for years. 17 key undecided Senators have been identified, from which we need just 7 votes to successfully defeat Hamilton's nomination, (see list below). To support Senators Inhofe and Sessions, and stop Hamilton, we first 40 solid votes by any good conservatives or moderates, so please call both of YOUR STATE Senators, whom you might call to ask him to OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER Judge David Hamilton, at 202-225-3121.

PLEASE TAKE ACTION TODAY: PLEASE MAKE 17 PHONE CALLS TODAY to each of the undecided Senate votes here, asking to oppose and filibuster Judge David Hamilton, because he ruled it's illegal to pray in Jesus name, but legal to pray to Allah:

x Ben Nelson, D-NE 202-224-6551 y George Voinovich, R-OH 202-224-3353
x Bill Nelson, D-FL 202-224-5274 y Judd Gregg, R-NH 202-224-3324
x Kay Hagan, D-NC 202-224-6342 y Richard Lugar, R-IN 202-224-4814
x Mark Pryor, D-AR 202-224-2353 y Olympia Snowe, R-ME 202-224-5344
xz Blanche Lincoln, D-AR 202-224-4843 y Susan Collins, R-ME 202-224-2523
z Chris Dodd, D-CT 202-224-2823 xy Kit Bond, R-MO 202-224-5721
z Barbara Boxer, D-CA 202-224-3553
z Kirsten Gillibrand, D-NY 202-224-4451 z Michael Bennet, D-CO 202-224-5852
z Roland Burris, D-IL 202-224-2854 z Byron Dorgan, D-ND 202-224-2551
(x = Lives in the South. y = Voted for Sebelius. z = Facing re-election in 2010.)

But remember, 100 emails = 10 phone calls = 1 fax in political capital, since the Senate staffers must handle each paper and usually write a reply. Please forward this email to your friends in the states with Senators listed above, and to all pastors in all 50 states. Judge Hamilton wrote: "The injunction orders the Speaker...that the prayers should not use Christ's name or title or any other denominational appeal...

If those offering prayers in the Indiana House of Representatives choose to use the Arabic 'Allah'...the court sees little risk that the choice of language would advance a particular religion or disparage others."In other words, Judge Hamilton ruled the words "Jesus" or "Christ" or "Savior" are illegal words, prohibited for public speech, banned by the First Amendment, which somehow prohibits freedom of religious expression, and makes Christian prayers ILLEGAL, but prayers to Allah are TOTALLY LEGAL in a public forum.

Human Events took action in 2007 and provided legal arguments to the Indiana Attorney General who appealed to the 7th Circuit Court and WON a 2-1 decision overruling Hamilton, restoring the right to pray "in Jesus name" in Indiana. But if President Obama succeeds in promoting Hamilton to the same court that overruled him, that good reversal will be in jeopardy. They're now the leading national voice against Hamilton, and getting traction toward a successful Senate filibuster that can stop Hamilton's confirmation,

Judge Hamilton is the worst of Obama's 15 new liberal appeals court appointees. The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals covers Wisconsin, Indiana and Illinois. Since most cases never reach the Supreme Court, the federal appellate circuits often provide the last word on cases affecting life and liberty. READ THE FACTS: The Judicial Confirmation Network quickly opposed Hamilton's nomination, stating that "President Obama's first nominee to the federal appeals courts -- specifically the appeals court based in Chicago -- is an ultra-liberal named David Hamilton who is a former fundraiser for ACORN and former leader of the Indiana chapter of the ACLU. He was nominated to the district court bench by President Clinton even though he had no judicial experience and was rated as 'not qualified' by the American Bar Association."

Now newly promoted Judiciary Committee ranking minority Member Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL), agrees with pro-faith Senator James Inhofe (R-OK), that we should oppose and filibuster Hamilton's nomination to the 7th Circuit. Thanks in part to our public pressure, the Republicans and Sessions have twice succeeded in delaying Hamilton's committee votes, saying "This a complex area of the law, I'll admit, but it's time for the federal court to get their heads straight on proper separation of church and state issues."

ANTI-LIFE BUT PRO-ABORTION?

In 2003, Judge Hamilton struck down part of an Indiana law on abortion. The reasonable law had required abortion clinics to simply give women information about alternatives to abortion in the presence of a physician or nurse, 18 hours before the procedure, until Hamilton ruled to hasten abortions. But thank God, the 7th Circuit Court also reversed Hamilton's bad decision in that case. If confirmed now Hamilton will sit on that 7th Circuit Court (the same court that frequently overruled him) with tyrannical power to rule the heartland of Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin with his anti-life, anti-liberty, anti-Christian agenda.

On April 1st and again on April 29th, Senator Orrin Hatch led all Republicans to walk out of the Senate Judiciary Committee, in protest against the Democrat "rush job" to confirm Judge Hamilton. Senator Jeff Sessions said he was troubled by Hamilton's ruling against a sectarian prayer to open the Indiana House of Representatives. Even Senator Arlen Specter expressed concern about Hamilton while serving as a Republican, but after switching parties he broke his promise to not become a "rubber stamp" for the Obama Administration, and voted to confirm Hamilton anyway. But will any Democrats oppose the anti-Jesus Hamilton

Then forward this link around to others so they may determine how their rep voted.

Our Rep for the Northwoods Patriots, Steve Kagan, voted yes, and we are targeting him for removal from office in November 2010.
Those reps who voted No should be thanked by their constituents.

All reps should be aware of the standards expected of them for re-election.
Each member took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States.
All candidates and incumbents must be warned that a direction toward liberalism, socialism, or violation to the Constitution would not garner support.
If they lie to get into office, a pledge to begin a recall will take place.
We must take control of our representation to the fullest extent and we must be empowered by engaging in the power that belongs to the people, because the Tenth Amendment delegates powers to the states, not to the U. S. Government.

HEALTH CARE SYMPOSIUM -- 11/16/09 -- REVISION

Northwoods Patriots and the Vilas County Republican Party
Host
Innovative Eagle River Health Care Forum

Monday, November 16, 2009
Wild Eagle Lodge
Eagle River, WI
6:00 pm
Socializing, Meeting Forum Speakers, Prepare Questions
7:00
The Forum Begins

Health Care Reform is an issue that will touch every American life. Everyone agrees that some type of reform is needed and there is much debate regarding what facets of our current health care system should be overhauled or modified. To help area citizens understand the complexity of this issue, and give voice to their concerns and ideas, the Northwoods Patriots and Vilas County Republicans are hosting a two-hour Health Care Forum. We will have a question-and-answer format, with moderator and panel of individuals representing all aspects of health care: an insured person, an insurance representative, a physician, a hospital administrator, and an economics expert.

Moderator for the event is John “Skip” McCaughn, a Deacon for Howard Young Hospital and St. Theresa's Church in Three Lakes, and former EMT for Eagle River and Conover.

Gary Fawcett, Eagle River’s “2009 Man of the Year” will represent the insured at the forum. Fawcett has a unique insight from both sides of the issue, since he also worked in finance for the Green Bay office of Aid Association for Lutherans for 15 years.

Oliver Burrows, an adjunct professor of Economics, ordained minister, and founder of www.EconomicTruth.org , a website dedicated to teaching people the truth about economics, will address the economic impact of proposed changes to the health care system.

Surgeon Dr. Pamela Galloway will represent a medical professional's viewpoint on the panel. Dr. Galloway has practiced at St. Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield, and St. Mary's Hospital in Rhinelander. She is currently a Senatorial Candidate for Wisconsin's 29th District, running against incumbent Russ Decker.

Tim Nerenz, Ph.D., Executive Vice President of Oldenburg Group, Inc. will represent a large employer's interests and concerns in the panel discussions. The Oldenburg Group, headquartered in Milwaukee, WI, with a plant in Rhinelander, is a global manufacturer of engineered products used in lighting, defense, mining and nuclear industries. Nerenz has also recently declared his candidacy as a 2010 Libertarian Candidate for the US House of Representatives from Wisconsin's 2nd District, running against incumbent Tammy Baldwin.

A local Health Care Insurance agent will complete the panel to provide yet another viewpoint on the whole health care reform issue.

All area residents are invited to come to this non-partisan forum and bring their questions with them. This is a unique opportunity to voice your concerns, get answers to your questions, and receive input on your ideas from all sides of the health care industry.

Please invite your friends and neighbors—we’re all effected by health care reform.

1948 CARTOON

Click on 1948 Cartoon below -
This cartoon is timeless and is just as true today as it was when made at Harding College in 1948 !
After viewing this cartoon, you’ll be shocked to notice how close it is to what is happening today.

It’s been over 60 years and that "ISM" problem is still with us.

HEALTH CARE -- UNCONSTITUTIONAL

You can skim this in about 3-5 minutes. In a nut shell, Michael Connelly, Retired U.S. Constitutional Attorney, confirms that Obamacare is totally unconstitutional and any Congressman voting for it can be held accountable, if they are notified. When held accountable, it would potentially open the flood gates of law suits against them by Republican and Conservative lawyers.

If you believe that government is way too big and this is an infringement on your rights as a citizen, email your Congressman and Senators and put them on notice that if they vote for this, it will end up in a class action suite of the people against them personally for violating the Constitution of the United States and the financial damages to them as well as losing their job will be everlasting.

Even if a minority of people think Obamacare is what they want, it's still unconstitutional and it will be challenged in a case against them.

The reason for forwarding this is that we need Public Outrage to help stop this proposal from becoming law. We also need to tell our representatives and senators that if they vote to approve this proposed law, it would be illegal and unconstitutional for them to do so. This would provide for all Americans the grounds for having them removed from office. They must know this and if they wish to gamble with their futures, and possible imprisonment if they vote, well knowing it would be not only unlawful, but unconstitutional to do so, they may think twice about doing so and reject this proposed law. They must know this to be proven guilty in a court of law, likely the Supreme Court. It may also be our only hope of defeating this legislation and having Obama impeached for backing an unconstitutional proposal of law.

If we sit back and hope for the best, it will be passed and having something repealed is a far greater feat that stopping it before it becomes law. To repeal a federal law takes 2/3 or 66% of Congress, to pass legislation takes only a majority or 51%. A BIG difference with something as controversial as this seems to be.

I believe we can stop it all from happening! Writing letters is easy. So is sending e-mail messages. We have everything to gain for ourselves and our families. We have everything to lose by not doing this. It's up to each of us to decide. Read the letter below if that will help you decide. God Bless Us All.

The Truth About the Health Care Bills -
Michael Connelly, Ret.
Constitutional Attorney 08.24.09
http://michaelconnelly.viviti.com

Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill
3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009.
I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law.

I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. In addition, what I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.

To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession.

The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business and put everyone into a government run system. All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats and most of them will not be health care professionals. Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled under this law.

However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface. In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable health care choices.

Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated. If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been forever destroyed.

The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government.

The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration authority in a number of different areas over the lives of the American people and the businesses they own.

The irony is that the Congress doesn't have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with.

I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate health care.

This legislation also provides for access by the appointees of the Obama administration of all of your personal healthcare information, your personal financial information, and the information of your employer, physician, and hospital.

All of this is a direct violation of the specific provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures. You can also forget about the right to privacy. That will have been legislated into oblivion regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments may provide.

If you decide not to have healthcare insurance or if you have private insurance that is not deemed "acceptable" to the "Health Choices Administrator" appointed by Obama there will be a tax imposed on you. It is called a "tax" instead of a fine because of the intent to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. However, that doesn't work because since there is nothing in the law that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax, it is definitely depriving someone of property without the "due process of law."

So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hate so much out the original ten in the Bill of Rights that are effectively nullified by this law. It doesn't stop there though.

The 9th Amendment that provides: "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people;"

The 10th Amendment states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are preserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

Under the provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork neither the people nor the states are going to have any rights or powers at all in many areas that once were theirs to control.

This is not about health care; it is truly about seizing power and limiting people's rights.

Article 6 of the Constitution requires the members of both houses of Congress to "be bound by oath or affirmation" to support the Constitution.

If I was a member of Congress I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything like it without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or affirmation. If I voted for it anyway I would hope the American people would hold me accountable.

For those who might doubt the nature of this threat I suggest they consult the source. Here is a link to the Constitution:

http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_transcript.html

And another to the Bill of Rights:
http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/bill_of_rights_transcript.html

There you can see exactly what we are about to have taken from us.

U.S. MANUFACTURING JOBS LOST

MANUFACTURING JOBS DROP TO LOWEST LEVEL SINCE 1941

http://www.infowars.com/manufacturing-jobs-drop-to-lowest-level-since-1941/

Manufacturing employment in the U.S. peaked in June 1979 with 19,553,000 jobs (data here), and by July of this year manufacturing employment had fallen to 11,817,000, the lowest level of manufacturing jobs since April 1941 (see chart above).

As a percent of the total labor force, manufacturing employment fell below 9% in July (see chart below), the lowest level in BLS history (back to 1939).

OBAMA FILES

This was forwarded from another Patriot Group:

THE OBAMA FILES are a complete list of Obama's ties to Communism and Marxism. It outlines his background, his training and education that makes him far more than far left.

Go to this link:

http://newzeal.blogspot.com/

Look to the left hand side column entitled “The Obama Files.” The so called main media had this information in 2008, but refused to cover it. Oddly, so did FOX News, but also did not expose this information. Still more oddly, neither need the Republican Party. This can lead one to believe that even the Republican Party has been too far infiltrated with people that do not want the Constitution to be the controlling document of Federal Government. Scary is an understatement. The only hope for American is Americans that remain faithful to Freedom and the Constitution that make that possible. We must get this information out to every Patriot of American.


I would like you to see the LINK TO #49 BELOW. The entire outline would take a month to read. The article clearly demonstrates how Socialists and Communists can and do take control of a party and a candidate to push their agenda. I had no idea that union bosses/presidents were avowed members of communist and socialist parties. Wow! By now, we all know how Obama has and is paying back the favor to labor unions. The reason I want to alert you to this is to make your group of patriots know the tactics used to steal America away from conservatives and enslave Americans. It's a valuable lesson to take heed and to prepare to fight against. You can be sure the same methods will be used to keep socialists in office under the Democratic ticket.

Here's one more note. The women in NY (Dede S.) that was supported and given $1million by the RNC and dropped out of the race is now backing the Democratic candidate and I would assume with her million bucks from the Republicans. All the more reason to be careful of the Republican Party controllers. Obviously, they will not win races with poor candidates and then give money to them to be used against them. Ironic, eh? No different than Washington collecting our tax dollars and then using them to put cronies in office on the Democratic ticket. Conservatives and so called Republicans have to be smarter since we do not have the money flowing in our court.
