By Texas GOP Vote
If you are not able to make the trip to Texas, the C-SPAN Network, WSB Radio Network and The Neal Boortz Network will offer fully televised and audio live broadcasts of The Cain-Gingrich Debate on November 5th in The Woodlands, TX, which starts at 7pm. It will also receive coverage from major media networks as well as TexasGOPVote.
"We have had tremendous interest in this debate," says Julie Turner, President of the Texas Patriots PAC. "This event fundamentally changes the way 'We the People' make decisions about whom to support. We believe these news and media organizations are a perfect fit for this format. We are committed to provide access to what happens in this historic debate to the most people for the longest period of time, and we will do that after the event using the web."
The one and a half hour debate will be lightly moderated by Rep. Steve King of Iowa and Ben Streusand, Chairman of the Texas Advisory Board of Americans for Prosperity.

Is the Electoral College Outdated?
Friday, November 4, 2011
12:00 PM EDT
Proponents of ending or bypassing the Electoral College say that the Founders' mode of presidential selection is outdated. With the National Popular Vote gaining momentum, the Electoral College is once again under serious attack. What would the success of this movement mean?
Dr. John Fortier, Director of the Democracy Project at the Bipartisan Policy Center, will address this question at Hillsdale College's next First Principles on First Fridays webcast.

Quick Thoughts

National Popular Vote Vs. The Electoral College The Electoral College has fallen on hard times. A new Gallup poll reveals that a majority of Americans-62 percent-would prefer that the candidate who receives the most votes nationwide becomes President, while 35 percent would keep the Electoral College. Since the 2000 U.S. presidential election, there have been many ill-informed calls to abolish the Electoral College. The National Popular Vote (NPV) plan is the latest in a long line of schemes designed to replace the Electoral College. NPV rests on flawed assumptions about the Electoral College, violates the Constitution, and is rife with practical problems. The National Popular Vote is an interstate compact in which participating states agree in advance to disregard the popular vote results in their states and allocate their electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote. This agreement would go into effect if enough states cumulatively possessing 270 electoral votes (the number needed to win an election) join the compact. So far, eight states and the District of Columbia (accounting for 132 electoral votes) have signed on to NPV and promised to ignore their citizens' choice for President. The National Popular Vote wrongly assumes that the Electoral College does not reflect the nation's choice for President. As Tara Ross explains in "The Electoral College: Enlightened Democracy," the Electoral College rewards candidates who build national coalitions and confers a mandate to govern. With the Electoral College, presidential candidates compete in simultaneous elections across 50 states and the District of Columbia. Each state, except Maine and Nebraska, has a "winner-take-all" system, whereby the presidential candidate who wins the state receives all the state's electoral votes (calculated by adding the number of Representatives to the number of Senators in the state). A President is elected when one candidate obtains a majority of the states' electoral votes. The Electoral College ensures that candidates build nationwide coalitions and demonstrate that they will be good representatives for a diverse nation composed of both small and large states. Candidates who focus too narrowly on a handful of states, regions, or metropolitan population centers will not gain enough electoral votes. The Electoral College also magnifies the margin of victory for presidential candidates and, therefore, confers a sense of legitimacy to the new President. By attempting to alter the Constitution through an interstate compact without congressional consent or an amendment, the NPV is unconstitutional. The Compact Clause of the Constitution (Article I, Section 10, Clause 3) prohibits states from entering into any agreement with another state without the consent of Congress. Supporters of the NPV claim that, because Article II of the Constitution gives state legislatures the power to determine how electors are chosen, the NPV is constitutional and requires no approval by Congress. "Because it is politically easier to convince a smaller number of states with the required electoral votes to join the compact than to persuade two-thirds of Congress and three-fourths of the states to amend the Constitution " Hans von Spakovsky explains in his latest paper, "the compact is an expedient way for proponents of the NPV to circumvent the Electoral College without formally amending the Constitution." With the NPV, a candidate does not need to win a majority of the national vote to be President. The NPV awards the presidential election to whichever candidate receives a plurality rather than the majority of the national popular vote. With its plurality requirement, the NPV could encourage the rise of third parties and lead to the election of presidential candidates by unprecedented, small margins. A President elected by only 25 or 35 percent of the American people would not have a mandate to govern, and questions about his legitimacy could pose grave consequences both for the nation and for any actions he took as President. To make matters worse, the NPV would encourage voter fraud and make recounts more problematic. Currently, a fraudulent vote is counted only in the district in which it was cast and therefore can affect the electoral votes only in that particular state. Under the NPV, however, voter fraud in any state would affect the aggregate national vote. Additionally, any suspicions necessitating a recount in even a single district would be an incentive for a national recount. Thus, rather than just forcing a single state with a close vote to go through the painful process of recounting votes by precinct, a recount will effectively challenge the tallies of each the nation's 180,000 precincts. Replacing the Electoral College with the National Popular Vote would be a disaster. For more than two centuries, the Electoral College has proved itself to be both effective in providing orderly elections for President and resilient in allowing a stable transfer of power of the leadership of the world's greatest democracy. And that makes it a constitutional process worth keeping. Keep reading about National Popular Vote and the Electoral College

A Special Invitation To a Two-Day Campaign Training Presented by Pennsylvania Family PAC
Changing the Culture by Winning Campaigns
November 9-10, 2011
Harrisburg, PA
Voters today - perhaps more than at any time in recent history - are yearning for principled candidates committed to standing strong for the timeless values upon which our country was founded and standing stronger against the politics-as-usual establishment working to undermine those values.
- Are you such a candidate - or do you know one running in your area that you'd like to help? or
- Do you wish you had the skills to help elect a good candidate? or
- Have you thought about running for local or state elected office - or know of someone else?
The Winning Campaigns training school shows pro-life, pro-family, principled - candidates, campaign staff, and grassroots activists how to run winning campaigns without compromising their values - with a special emphasis placed on running and winning primaries (even against incumbents).
Who should attend? Local or state candidates, potential candidates, campaign staff, campaign volunteers, grassroots leaders, and concerned citizens - who are committed to advancing pro-life/pro-family principles. This training is perfect for anyone who wishes to learn how to run or assist the local campaigns of those running for elected office.
What's the cost? Nothing; registration is free, but you must register in advance.
More details on the event and an informational brochure are available by request. To get more information or to register, call Dan at 717-545-0600. THIS IS BY INVITATION ONLY. YOU are invited (as a PA Family supporter), but if you know of someone else who could benefit from this training as a candidate or potential candidate or campaign worker, please let them know and have them contact us directly. But hurry, space is limited and reservations should be made by November 4th.

Announcing the National Day of Remembrance
The National Day of Remembrance of Victims of Illegal Aliens is hereby announced for November 6th, 2011. In cooperation with FIRE Coalition and the national crime victims' site, VOIAC and various Congressmen and women, we are pleased to announce a major new memorial day.
Few Americans know that more Americans are killed annually than were killed in all of the Iraq war! Few know that among the tens of thousands of these killings over 25000 arrests of illegal aliens have been made. Few know that, unfortunately, there is no national crime reporting taking place so that we do not know how many of our fellow men, women and children have been murdered, slain, raped, robbed or otherwise hurt by illegal aliens. Many have made estimates of hundreds of thousands.
We urge all true Americans to take a Moment of Silence at around 1 to 3 PM on that day to remember the tens of thousands of slain Americans due to illegal aliens. We urge immigration groups and tea parties to select an appropriate place for such mourning. Such places could include memorial sites, city halls, county courthouses, state capitols, select parks, cemeteries and other solemn places. In as much as this is the first such outing, we feel that even if there are only a few of you to gather, we nonetheless will have contributed to the memory of these victims. We also strongly suggest that we get out press releases. The reason for this should be obvious: Not that we want publicity for ourselves, but we do want publicity for the victims and their families.
Congressional activity: Congressman Steve King of Iowa is introducing at our request a House Resolution naming this day as the National Day of Remembrance of Victims of Illegal Aliens. Further, Congressman Walter Jones of North Carolina is introducing HR3168 which is the The Illegal Alien Crime Reporting Act of 2011. We urge you to contact your Congressman or woman to cosponsor these resolutions and bills.

I urge you to stand with me and co-sponsor my new legislation, "American and Pennsylvania Laws for Pennsylvania Courts." This legislation protects the individual constitutional rights of the people of Pennsylvania from the incursion of foreign laws, in cases in which the application of a foreign law or foreign legal doctrine would violate someone's constitutional rights. Go here to see the full document . . .: Our constitutional rights and founding principles of freedom should not be abridged by any offshore entity, including and especially those who would promote Sharia law. Once before on June 19, we asked that you contact your elected representatives and urge them to co-sponsor a bill to prohibit foreign law from consideration in any and all cases in our state courts. You were very responsive and there are now 21 co-sponsors on the bill! Listed below are the co-sponsors to date. if your rep is not on the list, kindly contact him/her even if it's the second time, by taking the 3 action steps below. The more co-sponsors the bill has the more likely it is that the legislators will vote affirmatively to pass it into law. It is significant what Rep. Swanger's office said when sending us the list of co-sponsors : "I feel a lot of them co-sponsored because of the message that was sent out by you to contact the Reps about this legislation. A lot of district offices & Harrisburg offices called or e-mailed right after that was sent out." Here's the list: Kerry Benninghoff Scott Boyd Dom Costa Tom Creighton George Dunbar Frank Farry Neal Goodman Seth Grove Kate Harper Dick Hess Scott Hutchinson Rob Kauffman Daryl Metcalfe (asked to be listed as a 2nd) Carl Metzgar Scott Perry (asked to be listed 3rd) Rick Saccone Stan Saylor Curt Schroder Jerry Stern Dick Stevenson Will Tallman Here are the action steps: 1. read the attached letter from Rep. Swanger, which went out in early June to all PA House members 2. visit, or call, your representative and ask him/her to call Rep. Swanger's secretary, Lily Horst, 717-787-2686, or email her at lhorst@pahousegop.com to be added to the list of the bill's cosponsors 3. timing: please move quickly, as they may be getting to the next step (obtaining a bill number). Make contact, and gain their commitment, by August 1. Having many co-sponsors on a bill, as you know, will help build momentum in the right direction quickly. Thank you for your efforts. Signed, your Legislative Focus Group American and Pennsylvania Laws for Pennsylvania Courts
Sincerely, Sarah Hart Chapter Leader, ACT! Pittsburgh ACT! for America Chapter |

The General Wayne Tea Party
Serving portions of Montgomery, Chester and Berks County
NEWS RELEASE
The Greatest Scam in American History?
Public Invited to Learn About the Financial Crash and Whodunit on November 1st
King of Prussia, PA (October 25, 2011): It was caused by corrupt legislators that our fellow citizens put in office. It was caused by their partners, the large, immoral financial institutions who were given an open door to wealth. It was caused by regulators who were prevented from regulating.
Tens of millions were made by those in charge; tens of thousands donated to complicit politicians, Hundreds of billions were lost by ordinary Americans. Members of both political parties were involved. All have escaped any consequences.
The November 1st meeting of The General Wayne Tea Party begins to get to the bottom of the crash. Phil Duffy has performed an exhaustive review based on recently published sources, and will present his findings. He names names, explains who did what, and when. The scope of the corruption is almost overpowering, and Phil lays it all out in gory detail. And he'll provide a handout, a single page listing the shameful dealing and double dealing that has nearly brought our country to its knees.
Phil Duffy is a graduate of Rutgers University and majored in International Business and Economics at NYU's Graduate School of Business. After service in the U.S. Army, Duffy spent much of his career in marketing, information systems and management consulting, with such firms as GE, McDonnell-Douglas and Coopers & Lyabrand. While with GE, he analyzed health care legislation, regulation and systems, including the UK's National Health Service.
A resident of West Chester, he currently teaches The Constitution and Bill of Rights for Widener University's lifelong Learning Institute and will teach a course on economics (Whatever Happened to Penny Candy?) for this program in the spring of 2012.
This meeting will be held on November 1st at the Bear Rock Café, 192 W. DeKalb Pike (Route 202), King of Prussia, PA. Meeting begins promptly at 6:00 P.M. and concludes at 8:15 P.M.
The meeting is free, is open to the public, and the press is invited

The Kitchen Table Patriots
are proud to join with
The Philadelphia Loyal Opposition
and Eagle Forum in support of
Al Schmidt (Only) for City Commissioner on Nov. 8th!

October 2011
Dear Philadelphia Eagle,
You live in a spot where there will be an election this year on Tuesday, November 8 that could affect the national election next year in a big way. You will have the opportunity to vote in a special election that will have implications on every other office in the United States - from your local neighborhood to the White House.
This is the election for Philadelphia City Commissioner. Those are the officials who are in charge of running fair and honest elections in Philadelphia. You and I know that our candidates cannot win unless we have honest elections. For years, we've heard the same complaints about unfair elections, politicking inside the polls, voter intimidation, poll watchers denied access, and much more.
I urge you to vote for Al Schmidt for City Commissioner on Tuesday, November 8 because we know we can count on him to fight for fair and honest elections. Philadelphia has three Commissioners, but no more than two can belong to the same political party. That means two Democrats and one Republican will be elected.
I urge you to vote ONLY for Al Schmidt (Press #119) - even though your ballot instructions will probably say "vote for two." You are absolutely NOT required to "vote for two" - you have a right to vote for only one, and that is the only way to assure that Al Schmidt will be elected. Also, do NOT vote a straight Republican ticket because that will automatically cast your ballot for both Republican candidates, only one of whom can win. If you have any questions, call PA Eagle Forum President Ned Pfeifer, 412-973-0502.
Al Schmidt is eminently qualified to be a Philadelphia City Commissioner. He is a former Senior Analyst for the non-partisan U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) - the investigative arm of Congress. There, he conducted oversight of government agencies, programs, and policies to identify and eliminate waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement anywhere that federal taxpayer dollars are spent. After leaving GAO, Al ran for City Controller and earned a reputation as an outspoken advocate for good government.
Al Schmidt has the skills and commitment to clean up the City Commissioner's Office and give us honest elections in Philadelphia. This can be decisive in how Pennsylvania will go in the important 2012 elections, and maybe even how the U.S. will go.
I urge you to vote on Tuesday, November 8 for Al Schmidt for City Commissioner - and vote ONLY for Al Schmidt for City Commissioner. Press #119. This could be more important than any vote you cast next year.
Faithfully,
Phyllis Schlafly
P.S. Please tell ten of your friends to be sure to vote ONLY for Al Schmidt (Press #119) on Tuesday, November 8. This is a crucial election for Philadelphia, for Pennsylvania, and for America. |

I am reaching out to you in hopes of gaining your support. I have taken the liberty of attaching a PDF recounting a compelling story which I contributed to with the team at the Chester County Hero Fund (501c3).
For the last year, I have been training for the Marine Corps Marathon, which I will run on October the 30th (just shy of my 68th--birthday) in D.C.
I'm running to raise money to build an accessible home for Jay Raffetto a wounded Marine. Jay graduated from Conestoga H.S. with my daughter Jennifer in 2000. I always gave him positive encouragement through his parents about the virtues of military service. Jay became a medic with special operations (Force Recon, USMC) and unfortunately, last August he became a triple amputee-while on patrol in Afghanistan.
I'm asking for a donation to support his cause and I'm asking consideration for a Corporate Sponsorship as well---if possible. I think this is a compelling cause.
Please see attached PDF with instructions on the bottom of the sheet.
100% of your donation will go Jay and his wife Emily, Thanks in advance for your support of Jay, his family and our men and women in the Military.
Also please feel free to use this email and PDF to send to others you Feel might want to support this effort.
P.S. I know I can count on your help!

Welcome to Washington's Headquarters at the Moland House
1641 Old York Road, Hartsville, PA 18974
In the early evening of 10 August 1777, eleven thousand Continental and militia soldiers are marching up York Road towards the Cross Roads with Bristol Road [Hartsville, PA] on their way to Coryell's Ferry [New Hope, PA] to camp four miles across the Delaware River. General George Washington receives a dispatch from John Hancock, President of the Second Continental Congress, placing the 260-vessel British fleet, hauling 17,000 troops under General William Howe, fifty miles south of the Delaware Capes [May & Henelopen] on 7 August. Unsure and wary of Howe's intentions, Washington immediately halts his force to encamp around the bridge over the Little Neshaminy Creek in Warwick Township, Bucks County. Knowing the area and having ridden through only ten days earlier, he selects the substantial stone dwelling of Widow Moland as his Head Quarters on the farm north of the bridge.

Surviving an Economic or Natural Disaster Meeting - Saturday, November 12th 6pm
Speaker: Gordon Smith
Where: P J Ryan's, 231 Bridge Street, Phoenixville - downstairs private dining area. Natural disasters can strike at any time. Economic downturns can wipe out your savings, your retirement and your ability to support yourself. This session focuses on what you should do to protect your family in a financial or economic disaster. Will you have enough food, water and medicines? Can you survive without electricity and urban infrastructure until help arrives? Can you support your family if your job is outsourced or eliminated? This session will help you assess the risk and offers realistic suggestions to ensure you and your family are prepared for the challenges when faced with a physical disaster or economic setback. Gordon Smith retired from his international security firm last year to devote himself to the Tea Party movement. He is dedicated to the restoration of our country and protecting our freedoms. A successful author and lecturer, he specializes in analyzing political issues, separating the truth from the chaff. His direct approach ensures that the message is not muddled with platitudes. Factual, straight forward, articulate and often humorous, Mr. Smith's passion for the issues, makes his presentation well worth attending.

A call to action has been issued! Will or can you attend?
Patriots Union.org and Veteran Defenders.org have issued the call to action.
A DECLARATION TO RESTORE THE CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC
NATIONAL CALL FOR UNITED ACTION
"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, - That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness." - from the U.S. Declaration of Independence
An undisclosed number of American Veterans and former service members have come together to prepare and present this Call-to-Action on behalf of the U.S. Constitution, the Republic, the Rule of Law and equal justice for all freedom loving citizens of the United States of America. Acting together as one, via The Veteran Defenders of America, co-sponsored by civilian patriot group The Unites States Patriots Union, LLC - we issue the following CALL.
- We CALL upon every member of federal, state and local government, legislative, judicial, law enforcement and military, who have taken an oath to protect and defend the Constitutional Republic from all enemies, foreign and domestic, to act upon those oaths for the stated purpose of restoring the Constitutional Republic.
- We CALL upon ALL veterans and veteran organizations in America, who still believe in their oath to protect and defend, to unite with us at once - in this Declaration to Restore the Constitutional Republic.
- We CALL for ALL citizens who still desire freedom and liberty, to stand with us in peaceful protest, and carry our demands to right the wrongs against our nation in the preservation of freedom, liberty, justice and the rule of law.
This is a NATIONWIDE Call-to-Action!
"We are Facing a Battle That Will Decide our Fate as a Nation!" - Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely (Ret.)
The time to unite and fight for the American way of life has arrived... We did not choose this fight, or this time. The fight has come to us in our time and we will not shrink from our responsibility to protect and defend the United States of America, our Constitutional Republic, and the American way of life. We CALL upon ALL freedom loving Americans to JOIN US in this honorable endeavor. We do so on the following basis...
Abuses and Usurpations
Barack Obama's once strong approval rating now stands at only 19%. The approval rating of congress is no better. The people have lost all faith in their government...
The demise of our Constitutional Republic has been underway for nearly a hundred years. As the people placidly accepted intolerable offenses against the republic, the states, and the Constitution for decades, the Central power in Washington D.C. grew ever more powerful, ever more abusive, and ever more disconnected from the very people it was formed to represent.
During the last three years, the current administration has committed the most egregious offenses against the people, the states and the Constitution, since the founding of our country and today, they operate as a virtual dictatorship, against the governed, beyond the scope and authority the people granted them in the Constitution and at odds with the will of the vast majority of American citizens.
The actions of the Obama Administration in total, rise to the level of treason against the United States and its people.
The Democratic Socialists of America are currently running Washington D.C. and they recently issued this statement in a Call-to-Action for their millions of members -
"We are the alternative to the tea party conservatives, the Republicans whose only program is to say no, the Democrats who have forgotten what progressive politics really are and the progressives who think that they can stand apart from the left."
This must not be permitted to stand...
Among other offenses, abuses and usurpations, is the following list of transgressions - (detailed in Appendix A) - altering our constitutional form of government and system of justice without authority...
- Violations against Article I of the U.S. Constitution - Congress
- Violations against Article II of the U.S. Constitution - The office of President
- Violations against Article III of the U.S. Constitution - Judicial Powers

- Abuse of Judicial power
At this late date, the individually itemized list of abuses and usurpations would require an encyclopedia of unconstitutional offenses to the Republic and there is no evidence to suggest that there remains even one legitimate honest courtroom in the country to which all evidence could be presented.
There is no Article or Amendment of the U.S. Constitution which the current leadership in Washington D.C. has not abused and/or usurped over the last three years.
As a result, the normal courses of action for redress may not be adequate to solve the problem today, as all three branches of the federal government are currently acting as one, all of them beyond the scope and power granted them by the Constitution, against the principles of freedom, liberty and self-governance, and at odds with the vast majority of citizens.
Yet the Constitutional Representative Republic must be restored, no matter the means or the cost.
It is on this foundation that we morally and rightfully call for all good people to rise up, stand together, move to restore the Constitutional Republic, and hold those who have and would stand against the people, fully accountable.
WE THE PEOPLE
On behalf of the Veterans and former Service Members of America, who fought and died for freedom and liberty here and abroad, and all good and decent American citizens from sea to shining sea, we the people of the United States of America hereby demand the immediate restoration of our Constitutional Republic and an end to the Democratic Socialist abuses and usurpations which have become commonplace in the daily corruption of our governmental offices. As the true American people sit idle, the enemy grows in number and strength.
No longer will we sit idly by and tolerate the utter destruction of our country, at the hands of anti-American elitists in Washington D.C. who have mistaken the people's peaceful tolerance for acceptance of their ill-advised behaviors. The time for all good and decent Americans to stand together, in defense of the Constitution, the Republic, freedom and liberty, has arrived. The Rule of Constitutional Law must prevail. We call upon all who have taken an oath to protect and defend, to take appropriate measures now.
We the people hereby demand
- The immediate and unconditional orderly resignation of Barack Hussein Obama, II
- The immediate and unconditional orderly resignation of Joseph R. Biden
In addition to the known fact that the Obama/Biden ticket was advanced by way of fraudulent representations concerning the constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama II, under Article II requirements for the office of President, the Obama/Biden has committed countless crimes against the U.S. Constitution, our Republican form of government and the American people while in control of the Executive Branch.
They are not able to do this alone, but with the help and cover of many anti-American players, who have also acted at odds with their oaths to protect and defend the Constitution, our Republic and the people of the United States. As a result, these players must be removed from office and held accountable for their actions as well.
This group includes, but is not limited to the following individuals -
- The immediate and unconditional orderly resignation of the entire Obama Cabinet, including but not limited to;
- the White House staff and unelected Czar's
- Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
- Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner
- Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta
- Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr.
- Interior Secretary Kenneth L. Salazar
- Acting Commerce Secretary Dr. Rebecca M. Blank
- Labor Secretary Hilda L. Solis
- Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
- Energy Secretary Steven Chu
- Education Secretary Arne Duncan
- Homeland Security Secretary Janet A. Napolitano
- EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson
- Office of Management & Budget Director Jacob J. Lew
- UN Ambassador Susan Rice, the entire Council of Economic Advisers
- Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan
- Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor
- · House Speaker John Boehner
- · House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi
- · Senate Leader Harry Reid
- Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell - all of whom have committed treasonous acts against the people, the states and the U.S. Constitution.
Further, to reinstate the rule of law and the Law of this Land, the U.S. Constitution and our constitutional republic -
- In compliance with Article II - Section I of the U.S. Constitution for the Removal of the President from Office, or of his Death, Resignation, or Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of the said Office, the Same shall devolve on the Vice President, -- the Congress may by Law provide for the Case of Removal, Death, Resignation or Inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what Officer shall then act as President, and such Officer shall act accordingly, until the Disability be removed, or a President shall be elected.
- That every verifiable member of The Communist Party USA, The Socialist Party USA and The Democratic Socialists of America be immediately publicly identified and removed from office for overtly acting against freedom, liberty and the Constitutional Republic.
- That in the event that these individuals refuse to immediately resign in an orderly fashion designed to serve the best interests of the United States, we demand that the 66 members of the people's House who voted against the recent raising of the nation's debt ceiling, to immediately begin impeachment proceedings against every member of the Obama administration.
- That the seven remaining members of the U.S. Supreme Court place an immediate stay on all Executive and Legislative actions taken under the term of the unconstitutional administration beginning January 20, 2009.
- That remaining members of the House and Senate immediately act to name new majority and minority leaders of congress, and work with the U.S. Supreme Court in the assigning of new temporary Executive Branch members, acting on behalf of the people and the will of the American majority until such time that the citizens of the United States can elect their new representatives in 2012.
- The immediate and unconditional dissolution of all special interest congressional caucuses, including but not limited to The Progressive Caucus, The Black Caucus. In addition, the immediate closure of any and all congressional committees which have been given unconstitutional powers, including the Debt Committee of twelve just formed. Individuals are elected by the people to represent ALL of the people, not special interest groups.
- That each state government immediately act to enforce its 10th Amendment right to protect and defend the people of their state against a tyrannical central power in Washington D.C., by recalling all State Guard troops home to protect the sovereignty and security of their respective citizens, as well as state resources and governments.
- That each state government act immediately to cut itself off from federal funding, and take the necessary actions to balance their own state and local budgets immediately.
These are our initial demands and nothing less than complete compliance with each of these demands is acceptable to the people of the United States. These demands have been published for public support and delivered to all members of Congress.
Further, it is our position that the normal constitutional line of succession to the presidency does not apply in this circumstance, due to the widespread complicity by members of congress, regarding both the original fraud that placed this administration in power and the ongoing effort to cover up the greatest fraud ever perpetrated on the American citizens.
The abuse and usurpation of the U.S. Constitution will not be allowed to stand. It is on this basis that We the People make these demands, in full compliance with the law of this land, the Constitution of the United States of America.
It is our sincere desire to affect these immediate and unconditional changes to the people's government through peaceful processes, causing a minimum degree of disruption to the vital ongoing business of the people and their representative government.
The individuals named in our demand for immediate and unconditional resignations have acted directly and overtly against the people, the states and the Constitution and they must be held fully accountable for their actions.
Call for the People to ACT Now
We are openly
for the American people to draw a final line in the sand and take a moral and righteous stand for the Constitutional Republic, the rule of law and the future of freedom and liberty.
The time to be tolerant and silent has passed and the time for serious action has arrived. Only the people can restore the Constitution as the Supreme Law of this Land. We must do it peacefully if at all possible and our Founders provided all the tools necessary for peaceful corrections of a ship set off course by internal enemies.
We are calling for the following specific actions, by every active and former service member and every patriotic citizen, no matter their political stripe...
- We call upon all members of the U.S. Military, the U.S. Supreme Court, Federal, State, County, Local Law Enforcement, and all Intelligence agencies, to direct all assets of the people of the United States towards the restoration of the Constitutional Republic and stand with the American citizens in compliance with their oath to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution and the people of the United States.
- We call upon ALL American citizens to provide necessary pressure on all law enforcement, judicial, intelligence and military agencies, until those who have sworn to protect and defend the Constitution begin to act upon those oaths.
- The current administration has done all it can to whip racial tensions and class warfare into full-blown riots and civil war, including scheduling a "U.S. Day of Rage" for communists, labor union socialists, illegal immigrants, Muslims and blacks across the country. Their "Day of Rage" was scheduled for Constitution Day, September 17, 2011, and although it was a total flop, they will continue to rage against America. It is an open assault on free-market capitalism, waged by modern day Marxists who must be stripped of their entitlement mentality. The LEFT is also planning a "Cairo style occupation of Washington in October, on the ground on Wall Street now and headed towards Washington D.C." These events are being run by the Obama White House, via a number of left-wing front organizations.
- We The Veteran Defenders of America and The United States Patriots Union call for a "unified march" from ALL fifty (50) states to Washington D.C. on Friday November 11, 2011, Veterans Day - led by American veterans and former service members with a clear purpose - to demand the immediate restoration of the U.S. Constitution, the removal and prosecution all of the individuals named herein, by voluntary resignation or articles of impeachment, and the end to Sharia Law on American soil. The Veterans March on D.C. Day - In defense of freedom, liberty and justice.
- We call for all Americans who truly do support our troops to march on D.C. with our veterans. We call upon ALL independent truckers, independent contractors, all non-union workers, all independent business owners, agents and investors, all who support free-market capitalism and the right to work, earn and own, to march together with our veterans and former service members on November 11, 2011 - Veterans Day!
- To be prepared to act as citizens to protect and preserve the Constitutional Republic, in the event that our public servants, who have sworn an oath to the Constitutional Republic, refuse for any reason, to act upon those oaths.
- To act peacefully, but prepared for a violent reaction from our nation's enemies. To avoid if possible, the RACE WAR being incited by the Obama Administration and the Black and Progressive Caucus's.
- Locally, to confront all anti-American infringements upon our Natural Rights with boots on the ground whenever and wherever local, state or federal officials act beyond their scope of authority, or at odds with the Constitutional Rights of the people.
- To begin to openly identify and address government corruption at the local, county and state levels, too often found in both governmental and law enforcement offices, also sworn to protect and serve the people of the United States.
- To be ready and willing to end the taxation without real representation by refusing to fund the anti-American regime currently in control of Washington D.C., until such time as the taxpayers of this nation are once again properly represented.
- To make the necessary provisions to secure and protect your families and neighborhoods in the event of economic instability and social chaos, similar to events already witnessed abroad, by stocking up on cash, food and water supplies, as well as personal protection items.
- In the event that the current administration or its thug supporters attempt to use government or civilian force and violence to silence the people, as in the cases of Syria, Libya, Yemen, China's Tiananmen Square, the Bonus Army of 1932 in the United States, or the UK presently wrestling with black and Muslim violence, the people must be prepared to defend themselves against such tyrannical tactics. We cannot expect that the federal government will act in the best interest of American veterans or citizens.
This CALL FOR ACTION is being issued as a joint initiative, by the leaders and members of The Veteran Defenders of America, The United States Patriots Union. All citizens who want to see the Constitutional Republic restored immediately are encouraged to immediately join one of these unified organizations and become directly engaged in our joint missions to restore America to that shining city on a hill, and beacon of freedom and liberty around the world. We the People are the solution!
Volunteer leaders across the country must join one of these organizations to take part in leading in their local areas. All supporters who do not wish to join these organizations but who do support the initiative can keep up with information concerning the action here.
Foundation for Our United Action
Our Declaration of 1776 establishes the principles upon which The United States of America was founded. On September 17, 1787, our nation's Founders ratified The United States Constitution, forming a Constitutional Representative Republic as our system of self-governance. From that day forward, the American people are guaranteed a Constitutional Representative Republic of, by and for the people, which was to at all times, operate within the confines of the limited authority provided the government by the people and their respective states.
For decades, our federal government has been operating beyond its constitutional authority, infringing upon the Natural Rights of every American citizen and every American enterprise, until our government has indeed become destructive of the common cause of freedom and liberty.
In its usurpations of the Constitution, it has committed atrocities against the people for which it was designed to protect and serve, until the people are forced to rise up in the name of freedom and liberty, casting off the shackles of soft tyranny and it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
When a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Our United Mission
We are finished with changing America to suit every anti-American whim... This time, the change is coming to Washington D.C.
It is not our intent to separate from any foreign King, nor to abolish or alter our Constitutional Representative Republic, but rather to restore it, as the Supreme law of this land, under which both the government and the governed must live.
Our united mission is to end the march of democratic socialism, which has become the most dangerous modern threat to American peace, prosperity, freedom and liberty and reinstate the republican form of self-governance guaranteed every citizen in the U.S. Constitution.
To accomplish this objective, the people responsible for the usurpation of the Constitution must be immediately removed from office and held fully accountable for their actions, setting an example for future generations, who must also be forever vigilant in the common defense of freedom and liberty.
The long train of abuses and usurpations must be brought to a swift end and the Constitutional Republic must prevail, or the United States of America will soon cease to exist.
Our mission is just - it is moral - it is legal and constitutional and it is necessary...
This is not a call to overthrow our entire institutions of government, or subvert the Law of the Land, but rather to restore those institutions to their honorable constitutional forms. As such, and under their oaths to the Constitution and the people whom they are sworn to protect and defend against all enemies, foreign and domestic, it is incumbent upon every citizen, veteran, soldier, officer and agent to use the tools of the people to protect the people and return our government to a Constitutional Republic of, by and for the people.
Let Freedom Ring! May the Creator, who endowed each of us with certain unalienable rights, among them the right to Life, Liberty and the individual Pursuit of Happiness free from government tyranny, bless this mission of, by and for the people of the United States, and may the Lord let freedom ring in America, once again.
We demand an end to government corruption, an end to despotic leadership in D.C., an end to the current assault on all decent and honest American taxpayers, businesses and honorable public servants of the people.
We demand the peaceful return of the people's government, and we will remain resolute in the defense of the Constitution and the United States of America until the people can once again, feel secure in their nation and government.
IN GOD WE TRUST!

APPENDIX "A"
As a preface to APPENDIX "A", the following items only scratch the surface. The blatant abrogation of the United States Constitution, trampling the boundaries of law-based authority, deceit, bribery, aiding and abetting our sworn enemies, illegal manipulation of our election process and subverting election laws, and hundreds of other affronts and assaults to our liberties and freedoms, all fall under the category of "high crimes and misdemeanors."
1. Obama is a National Security threat since he definitely has questionable allegiance to the United States, not to mention his refusal to complete and release full, frank and truthful answers as to who he is. Obama has demonstrated a blatant disregard for the public safety and security.
2. Obama and his handlers released an obvious forged birth certificate after release at least two fraudulent COLBs (Certifications of Live Birth).
3. Obama and his incompetent advisors have wreaked economic tyranny on the American people, all the while calling for the rest of us to endure economic sacrifice.
4. Obama has destroyed accepted administrative process by creating 32 Czars who only report to him, bypassing the Congress and Cabinet. *
5. In one year, Obama and his minions doubled our national debt, which took 200 years to accumulate.
6. Obama and his Justice Department sided with a foreign government (Mexico) when they sued the State of Arizona in order to force the continuation of illegal immigration. *
7. Obama and his henchmen proposed a 1% tax on all bank transactions (HR4646) to be implemented after the November 2012 elections.
8. Obama signed HB1388 to use $20 million in taxpayer money to immigrate Hamas refugees to USA, and other migration assistance to Palestinian refugees.
9. Obama passed "Dream Act" by Executive Order which aide's illegal aliens through
"prosecutorial discretion" all to garner votes for his election. The Heritage Foundation has provided extensive proof that illegal aliens and immigrants with green cards are committing rampant voter fraud. *
10. Obama's socialist, radical, dictatorial Moratorium on drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, for thirty years a major source of energy for America, and which a Federal Court ruled was unconstitutional, continues to prevent drilling, all under the pretense to protect the environment and the fraudulent notion of global warming. He is indifferent to the loss of 10,000 jobs and 87,000 workers destroyed. Perfect excuse to push "Cap and Trade" with environmental regulations, and to push for governmental control of energy industries, i.e. General Motors, banking and healthcare.
11. Obama and his Czars want to tax church contributions and replace charities with government welfare. *
12. This administrations massive expansion of the federal government (350,000 employees) through agencies and Czars, whose goal is to "fundamentally transform America."
13. Obama's own Federal Elections Commission documented that he got at least $33.8 million from disallowed foreign contributions, including 520 contributions from interests in Iran, and $30,000 from Hamas-controlled Gaza area. *
14. Obama said, "We must reward our friends and punish our enemies." 70 individuals who raised $50,000 or more for him "have been rewarded with ambassadorships or high Ranking jobs."
15. Obama and the cabal's National Security Strategy released in May, allows for the targeted assassination of US citizens including "homegrown terrorists" without due process. *
16. Obama dhimmitude given Ramadan and Iftar dinners in the White House, while he cancels the National Day of Prayer without one word of objection from the Congress.
17. Obama and his Muslim buddies agree and defend a 15 story mosque, bankrolled by terrorist sympathizers and anti-American Muslim groups, to be erected feet from the hallowed ground of the World Trade Center.
18. Obama and his Justice Department's refusal to support, defend and enforce US law, i.e. Defense of Marriage Act, stating it was unconstitutional, thereby circumventing established law and the rulings of the courts. *
19. Obama and his warmongers attack Libya without any authority from Congress. *
20. ObamaCare ruled unconstitutional and ordered stopped by the Federal Court...it was implemented regardless of the Federal Court. *
21. Congress said Cap and Trade was unconstitutional and refused to pass the same. Obama ordered the EPA to enact the provisions regardless of the Congressional ruling. *
22. Obama's use of taxpayer money to pay for Democrat propaganda including $15 million for The American Reinvestment and Recovery Act road signs and $18 million for the continually misleading recovery.gov website. *
23. $770 million of taxpayer funds given to Egypt and Cyprus for the restoration of mosques through USAID. *
24. Obama has disgraced the United States by bowing to foreign potentates, while at the same time snubbed our longtime allies, Great Britain and Israel. Obama and his friends have deliberately fostered hate against the Jews and Israel by promoting a Palestinian State.
25. Obama's Department of Justice refusing to prosecute Black Panthers in Philadelphia caught on tape brandishing weapons in front of a voting site to intimidate voters. Further the stated intentions of political appointees of Obama who said they would ignore voter crimes committed by blacks, Latinos and other minorities. *
26. Obama and his Cabinet intentionally refusing to secure our nation's borders is in direct violation of Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution. This is an effort to blackmail Republican support for comprehensive immigration reform. They are in essence holding the Border States and residents as political hostages during a time when they live in fear and danger. *
27. Obama and his handlers continually ignore Congress's constitutional obligation to vet presidential appointees, as none of his 32 Czars was vetted by Congress, and his appointment of the head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services was appointed during Congress recess. *
28. Department of Homeland Security now investigating to determine the political association for those making Freedom of Information Act Requests. If you are a Republican you request will be delayed and even ignored altogether.
29. Obama's Justice Department refusing to sue sanctuary cities for violating US immigration law. *
30. Obama's executive order which allows Interpol to operate in the US with no restraints, and without any oversight from Congress, courts, FBI or local law enforcement. *
31. Obama's administration and Justice Department discourage whistleblowers and prosecute them.
32. Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton's ongoing effort to create international small arms accords that will subvert the Second Amendment rights of US citizens.
33. Obama and his State Department has failed to treat as an Act of War the takeover of sovereign land belonging to Arizona by the Mexican drug cartel.
34. The State Department used $23 million in taxpayer money to transform Kenya into a constitutionally communist country where freedom of speech is limited and property rights are based on social justice. Don't forget the Kenyan constitution allows for Sharia Law in some regions, which means women will not have basic human rights. *
35. As part of the auto industry bailout and forced closings, shut down an unbelievable disproportionate number of dealerships in rural areas that did not vote for Obama.
36. Obama's refusal to have a press conference and answer the difficult questions as is expected by every US President. And as is usual with his total lack of respect for anyone but himself...he is always late for everything.
37. Obama and his minions have downgraded the value of human life with their opposition to his signing "Born Alive Infants Protection Act"; however they lifted the ban on overseas abortion funding using US taxpayer's money.
38. Obama's State Department foreign policy continually will do anything to insult our allies, embarrass the United States, all the while elevating and promoting third world Muslim countries. *
39. Obama and his environmentalist henchmen are prohibiting US industries from taking advantage of our own natural resources including coal, oil, uranium and timber. *
40. Despite all the political rhetoric about the historical downgrade of our nation's credit rating, the devaluation was a mere shadow of the colossal degradation Obama and his socialist cadres have inflicted on our Country since January 20, 2009. More significant than our nation's credit, our nation's credibility as a constitutional republic has suffered relentless and ruthless damage and offense. *
41. Obama deployed 1200 National Guard troops to Border States, where they will, under no circumstances, be used to stop the flow of illegal aliens and drug traffickers.
42. Despite a court's ruling and Congress's opposition, Obama's FCC continues to try to gain control over the Internet, by reclassifying internet companies as telecommunications providers, thereby making them subject to FCC regulation. *
43. A slick move no one noticed moving the Census Bureau out of the Commerce Department directly into the White House and under the control and management of Rahm Emmanuel, Chief of Staff.
44. Obama attempts to run this Country with Executive Orders.
45. Under the cover of secrecy and without any input from Congress, state or local officials and current land owners, the Department of the Interior plans to take control of millions of public and private lands in Western states by designating them national monuments.
46. Obama through Eric Holder has handcuffed and taken over the CIA, which has been the most critical, independent information gathering resource safe-guarding our national security. Obama has revealed, ridiculed and condemned CIA interrogation methods which were previously approved by Congress and cleared through the Justice Department. He has demonstrated to our enemies (terrorists) that they need not fear us. *
47. Obama's known history is replete with symbiotic associations and participation with admitted anti-American radicals, many of which/who advocate the destruction of American imperialism and capitalism, even though violent means. Consider William Ayers, Khalid Al Mansour, Rhashid Khalidi, Jeremiah Wright, Sol Alinsky, James Cone, Mike Klonsky, as well as organizations such as the Weather Underground, STORM, Chicago Annenberg Challenge, Woods Foundation, ACORN, which have all received major tax payer funded support. Obama has never denied or even argued about his nefarious involvement with these people and organizations.
48. At the expense of the American taxpayer to the tune of $6 Billion, Obama and his handlers have established their own Civilian Paramilitary Security Force made up with the likes of SEIU, STORM, ACORN, RUCKUS, The Apollo Project (Soros), AmeriCorps, Color of Change, Drummond Pike/Project and others who choose to remain anonymous. *
49. Loss of free speech to the tune of half a billion dollars of taxpayer money, given to Obama appointee Mark Lloyd "FCC Diversity Officer", and avowed pro-Chavez radical, ordered by Obama to rein in free speech on the airwaves by reorganizing the FCC and placing a tax equal to annual operating costs on local radio stations, which they either pay or lose their license to a new minority owner. *
50. Historic and unprecedented move by Obama's cabal to indoctrinate our children in socialist, humanist garbage, sent a video to all schools, and naturally this scheme was promoted by the NEA, with the children taking a pledge, "...to be a servant to our president and to all mankind", and then they chant over and over "together we can." He is asking our children to choose him and his agenda, over anything you might teach at home. *
51. Obama's appointment of Safe Schools Czar, Kevin Jennings, founder of Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network, has determined required reading material for our schools which promotes pornography, not to mention homosexuality.
52. Obama protected union interests over those of GM and Chrysler bond holders during bankruptcy proceedings, forcing investors to accept millions in losses, funds which they were legally entitled to. *
53. In a time when Americans are asked to sacrifice, I guess this does not apply to Michelle Obama, since she has 22 personal assistants, which does not include a markup artist and hair stylist, at the cost to the American taxpayer of $6,364,000 for 4 years. These assistants' sole duties are to facilitate her social life. She must be a lot more incompetent than first thought, since as First Ladies Hillary Clinton only had 3 assistants, Jacqueline Kennedy had 1 assistant, and Laura Bush had 1 assistant.
54. On June 9, 2011, Obama signed Executive Order 13575 establishing the "White House Rural Council" which establishes unchecked federal control into rural America in education, food supply, land use, water use, recreation, property, energy, and the lives of 16% of the US population. No Congressional or local government oversight or input. *
55. Obama's handler's establishment of the "Super Committee" is the final nail in our republic's coffin, and the establishment of a Marxist dictatorship. Congress has always had committees which meet and return to the main body with ideas and suggestions, which is then amended, debated, rewritten, and finally voted on. Not this Super Committee, their determinations are presented to the Congress who are not allowed to discuss debate, modify, rewrite. The Congress is limited to a straight up or down vote.
56. Obama forced British Petroleum to set up $20 billion slush fund supposedly to compensate Gulf coast residents and businesses, and sets up an Obama appointee to administer funds with no judicial or congressional oversight. *
57. Obama's cabal canceled 77 oil field development contracts already certified as proper by the Bush administration. This deliberate affront by Obama's Interior Secretary prevents the extraction of 3 trillion gallons of oil in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and North Dakota, which is more than enough to end our dependence on foreign oil. *
58. Obama signed the Russian-American START treaty which hampers US missile defense development and makes it difficult for us to modernize our rapidly aging nuclear weapons arsenal. It represents unilateral disarmament by the US in return for nothing more than Russian good will. What a joke.
59. Perhaps one of Obama's most pathetic stunts was his chair of the UN Security Council, never done by a US sitting President. He was in the right place sitting as chair over an organization ruled by tyrants, and showing his true dual loyalties.
60. We need to look at Obama's character, or in this case, his lack thereof. Obama is a total incognito with zero accomplishments. No experience, no education, no business sense or experience (only 8% of his entire administration has ever held a real job or run a business, other than being on the government dole), no military experience, a dangerous and treacherous narcissist, arrogant, incompetent, no class, serial liar, no humility, juvenile, no dignity, no genuine empathy, his personal narcissism and arrogance veiled by his hollow spoken empathy, quite ignorant, racist, Muslim, bereft of conscience, unable to determine between his fantasy and reality, incapable of genuine caring or con
concern, artificial, blames everyone else for his failure, and most of all Obama is a puppet, owned by his handlers, who maneuvered and manufactured his pathetic life.
61. Misuse of federal power and money in illegal international gun and drug running, the mis-distribution of taxpayer funds and manipulation of foreign governments, racketeering and smuggling, such as Project Gun Runner, resulting in the murder of U.S. agents.
A Message from Col. Harry Riley, USA, Ret.:
A day-long muster/rally at 0600 hours on 11-11-11 at the Washington Monument.
Our natons rudder is broken patriots...we're sending Libyan rebels to Germany for treatment in US Military hospitals and you wonder who pays? Guess what....we do!. At the same time Senator McCain is agreeing to rape military TRICARE health benefits to save funds. Just lost 12 or 13 warriors in Afghanistan today thanks to a anti-American commander-in-chief that undermines our military at every turn. This doesn't even touch government selling guns to Mexican drug dealers; millions to failed energy company; CZARS side-stepping Congress; on and on. What are we doing? Obama is the enemy and people are snoozing, wondering if he will get reelected? We must stop this traitor, betrayer of the US Constitution. This is what 11-11-11 Declaration Rally/muster in D.C. is all about...bringing to a screaming crescendo the failures and outright criminal behavior of the Obama Administration and his supporting Congress critters.
We all need to pitch in so it won't be so hard on any of us...Obama and his cohorts are slowly, like a cancer, eating away at our strength...soon we will be weakened to point of no alternative. Be part of the fight, help with funding and lock arms and stand shoulder to shoulder together in D.C. on 11-11-11. Our freedom and liberty is at stake...you tell me what's more important.
Col. Harry Riley, USA, Retired

Thomas Jefferson: "Whensoever the general government assumes undelegated powers....a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy."
But what IS nullification? How does it happen and work? Since September 2010, the Tenth Amendment Center has been hosting a national tour to educate and activate people on this topic. People are learning the constitutional basis, when it's been used in history, and how it is happening around the country and how YOU can stop DC right in your own state.

Help Prevent Voter Fraud ! !
Judical Watch is Demanding Answers Earlier this month, Judicial Watch, a government/judicial watchdog group based out of Washington, DC, hosted a Voter Fraud panel discussion featuring John Fund, Christian Adams, and King Street/True the Vote leader Catherine Engelbrecht. Here's video from a portion of the event:
 | "The Voter Fraud Threat to Free and Fair Elections" - Part 2 |
But wait, there's more! The really exciting thing Judicial Watch is doing happened just last week when they filed a FOIA lawsuit against the DOJ to obtain records of communications between the Department of Justice and Project Vote Official/former ACORN attorney Estelle Rogers. You can read more about it here. Bottom line..."Judicial Watch is convinced that Project Vote's activities remain a threat to the integrity of our elections. The fact that Project Vote is bullying states to attack election security reforms in order to register Obama's 'Food Stamp Army' comes as no surprise. But it appears that the Obama Justice Department is using the same playbook as Project Vote - to the detriment of clean elections. The American people deserve to know if the nation's highest law enforcement agency has become nothing more than a political tool to help this scandalous ACORN-front group re-elect Barack Obama. Again, this Justice Department can't seem to be bothered to comply with basic open records FOIA law," stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
Be assured, we will be closely watching for any new developments in this case....but in the meantime, if you haven't already volunteered to help uphold free and fair elections by working at the polls WE NEED YOU! There is a critical shortage of polling place workers. We wonder why Project Vote and ACORN get away with their flagrant abuses of our system...it's because we as citizens are allowing it to happen. WE MUST ENGAGE IN THE PROCESS OF OUR ELECTIONS. One way you can engage is by volunteering to work as a poll watcher on Election Day. Please, it is going to take all of us to uphold the integrity of our elections in the days ahead. Get involved now.
We need TTV volunteers for poll watching - Free and fair elections do not happen without citizen involvement. Want to stand up and take action? True the Vote will provide training and support - you just need to take the first step. For more information email info@truethevote.org or go HERE to sign up now! |

I'm excited about the Nov. 22 presidential debate on foreign policy that The Heritage Foundation is co-sponsoring with the American Enterprise Institute and CNN.
We're expecting all the major GOP presidential candidates to appear on stage. And to accommodate their schedules and make sure everyone can attend, we moved the debate from its original date.
Nothing is more important to the future of our nation than how we approach national security and foreign policy.
But unfortunately, these issues have often fallen by the wayside as candidates debate other critical issues like jobs, taxes, federal spending and the growth of big government.
Our goal with this debate isn't just to ensure the candidates are paying attention to national security and foreign policy. We're also trying to educate the American people--and particularly those Americans who aren't already convinced of conservative principles.
That's why we decided to partner with CNN to air this debate.
One recent debate on CNN reached 5.5 million Americans, and I can guarantee you that most of them were not conservatives. These are exactly the people we conservatives need to reach.
This debate is an important opportunity both for Heritage and for the conservative movement. In fact, this is the first time that we've ever sponsored a presidential debate.
We're setting the table for some lively family discussions at Thanksgiving. I hope you'll tune in on Tuesday, Nov. 22.
Thank you as always for your dedication to the conservative cause.
Sincerely, Edwin J. Feulner, Ph.D. President The Heritage Foundation
P.S. As more information about the Nov. 22 debate on CNN becomes available, I will be sure to let you know.

RedState Morning Briefing
For November 2, 2011
1. FBI arrests 8 in Florida for absentee ballot fraud
I have been writing up a storm about absentee ballot fraud in various places around the country. Today, the FBI arrested eight people in Florida who appear to have committed some pretty severe fraud in a 2010 School Board election in Madison,. The violations are pretty straight-forward, but also pretty brazen.
2. While Left Tells Assaulted Women Hush Up, SC Sheriff Empowers Saying 'Ladies, Arm Yourselves'
The Sheriff of Spartanburg County in South Carolina gave a news conference yesterday wherein he offered reason number 7,283 why I am a Conservative. You see, while the 'Occupy Wall Street' movement is making those pesky women who've been sexually assaulted and raped 'hush up'(they aren't good for The Cause ™), Sheriff Chuck Wright is walking the talk of true empowerment by encouraging women to arm themselves to prevent being violently assaulted.
3. Republicans Must Oppose Reid's Minibus Bill
Last week, we noted that Harry Reid, with the help of Republican leadership, is attempting to come late to the 2012 budget game and commandeer the entire process through a series of 'minibus' bills. They are using House-passed appropriations bills as vehicles to tack on at least two additional disparate spending bills. Such a maneuver will allow the Senate to force a conference committee vote on spending measures and policies that the House never amended. Although the topline discretionary spending figure is already set, Reid is wagering that his fast track minibus strategy will allow him to override House-passed policies, while inserting his own policies into the bills. Thus far, he has been successful.

Agree that JFK was one of our greatest presidents, part two.
Ask your liberal friend which part of JFK's agenda he liked most: JFK's pledge to increase defense spending to close the "missile gap" with the Soviets, his supply-side tax cuts, his commitment to halt communism in Indochina, or his rousing anti-welfarist line, "Ask not what your country can do for you-ask what you can do for your country."
Pick a fight with a liberal on:
LIBERAL DOUBLE STANDARDS. As Ann Coulter says, funny, isn't it, how liberals want everything they dis-approve of banned (smoking, guns, practicing Christianity, ROTC, the Pledge of Allegiance) and whatever they approve of (abortion-on- demand, gay marriage, pornography, condom distribution in public schools, screenings of An Inconvenient Truth) made mandatory.

U.N. Investigators Find 'New Signs' of Syrian Nuclear Efforts
November 01, 2011
WASHINGTON - U.N. investigators have identified a previously unknown complex in Syria that bolsters suspicions that the Syrian government worked with A.Q. Khan, the father of Pakistan's atomic bomb, to acquire technology that could be used to make nuclear arms.
The buildings in northwest Syria closely match the design of a uranium enrichment plant provided to Libya when Muammar Qaddafii was trying to build nuclear weapons under Khan's guidance, officials told The Associated Press.
The U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency also has obtained correspondence between Khan and a Syrian government official, Muhidin Issa, who proposed scientific cooperation and a visit to Khan's laboratories following Pakistan's successful nuclear test in 1998.

Tuesday, November 1, 2011 To: Friends & Supporters From: Gary L. Bauer Obama Continues Assault On Values As part of its continuing assault on traditional values, the Obama Administration has put out a not-so-subtle message when it comes to who qualifies for government grants: "Catholics Need Not Apply." Today's Washington Post reports on the ongoing feud between the Obama Administration and the Catholic Church. As we previously reported, Archbishop Timothy Dolan has criticized the Obama Administration for undermining traditional marriage, thereby setting the stage for a "national conflict between Church and State of enormous proportions." Now the church hierarchy is fighting back against Obama's aggressive promotion of abortion. Two recent rulings from the Department of Health and Human Services are clearly biased against the Church. The first came in an August mandate that insurers must now provide free contraceptives, including abortion-inducing "emergency contraceptives," in all policies. Now comes news that HHS has denied a grant to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to help victims of human trafficking. According to the Post report, the Catholic Church had been awarded this grant every year since 2006, but was turned down this year after political appointees intervened. Consider this excerpt:
"On the trafficking contract, senior political appointees at HHS awarded the new grants to the bishops' competitors despite a recommendation from career staffers that the bishops be funded based on scores by an independent review board... That prompted a protest from some HHS staffers, who said the process was unfair and politicized... Their concerns have been reported to the HHS inspector general's office. Under HHS policies, career officials usually oversee grant competitions, and priority consideration is given to the review board's judgment."
Moreover, in defending previous grants against a lawsuit filed by the ACLU, the Post reports that Justice Department lawyers argued that "the bishops had been 'resoundingly successful in increasing assistance to victims of human trafficking.'" So an independent review board recommended that the grant to the Catholic Church be renewed due to its "resoundingly successful" work, but Obama's appointees overruled the board and career staffers. Why? Abortion. Because the Catholic Church would not refer trafficking victims for abortions, Obama is no longer interested its help. That this administration would have a pro-abortion litmus test in order to receive funding to help victims of human trafficking is a disturbing example of Obama's extremism. And it also exposes the lie that ObamaCare won't fund abortions with your tax dollars. ACTION ITEM: Our friends at Catholic Advocate are calling on Obama to live up to his promises to seek common ground and cooperation on values issues. Click here to sign their petition. The U.N.'s Anti-Israel Bias The United Nation's anti-Israel bias is nothing new. But here's the latest example. In an interview last week, Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas was asked about the status of negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Here was his response:
"First of all, let me make something clear about the story of the 'Jewish state.' They started talking to me about the 'Jewish state' only two years ago, discussing it with me at every opportunity, every forum I went to -- Jewish or non-Jewish -- asking: 'What do you think about the 'Jewish state'?' I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I will never recognize the Jewishness of the state, or a 'Jewish state.'"
So, once again, the Palestinian leadership is denying the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state while demanding the creation of yet another radical Islamic state. Let's not fool ourselves. Were "Palestine" to come into existence tomorrow, it will not be a model of tolerance and democracy. It will devolve into "Hamastan" in no time at all -- just as the mullahs control Iran, as the Muslim Brotherhood is about to control Egypt and as the Islamists are promising Sharia law in Libya. And what was the response at the United Nations to Abbas' rejection of Israel's right to exist? Yesterday it rewarded him by granting "Palestine" membership in the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The vote was overwhelming -- 107-to-14 with 52 abstentions. Ironically, UNESCO says its mission is to "contribute to the building of peace" based upon the observance of "human rights" and "mutual respect." For the past two years, the Obama Administration has repeatedly lectured us about the importance of these international organizations and working with the "world community." Fortunately for Israel, we are almost one year away from the elections. Under pressure, the Administration cut off funding for UNESCO, which gets 22% of its budget from the U.S. More OWS Extremism If you needed more evidence of the nuttiness that is running rampant within the Occupy Wall Street movement, our friends at The Weekly Standard have it. They have posted a video of OWS protestors blaming Israel for 9/11. It didn't take long before chants of "Free Palestine" could be heard along with "Occupy Wall Street." These extremists have turned reality on its head. To them the Jews are the enemy, the Islamists are the victims, socialism is good and capitalism and America are evil. And this is the movement that Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and so many Democrats rushed to embrace.

DealWith MuslimsTwo Black Americans were elected to congress this cycle, and both are Republican. Col. West is from southern Florida. He won in a walk. This new Congressman was an extremely popular commander in Iraq. He was forced to retire because during an intense combat action a few of his men were captured. At the same time his men captured one of the guys who were with the Iraqis who captured his men. Knowing that time was crucial and his interrogators were not getting anywhere with the prisoner, Col. West took matters into his own hands. He burst into the room and demanded thru an interpreter that the prisoner tell him where his men were being taken. The prisoner refused so Col. West took out his pistol and placed it into the prisoner's crotch and fired. Then the Col. told the prisoner that the next shot would not miss. So the prisoner said he would show where the American service members were being taken. The Americans were rescued. Someone filed a report on incorrect handling of prisoners. Col. West was forced to retire. Col. West was just elected in November 2010 to Congress from Florida. During the elections he was part of a panel on how to handle or how to relate to Muslims. You will see his answer here explaining in just over a minute the truth about Islam. Please watch and if you agree, please forward it to your friends; if you disagree, you're an idiot.

Case Study: How Mainstream Media Whitewash Terror
US headlines on Gaza missile attacks Saturday often made it appear that "militants" simply are responding to Israeli defensive measures.
By Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu
10/30/2011
U.S. headlines on Gaza missile attacks Saturday often made it appear that "militants" simply are responding to Israeli defensive measures. The violence began last Wednesday with a missile attack on southern Israel, but most American media implied that Israel's counterterrorist retaliation was a provocation for Saturday's multiple terrorist attacks on major urban centers.
One of the most blatant biased versions was printed in the Denver Post, which headlined, "Israel launches Gaza airstrikes; Palestinians Reply with Rockets." If the reader went past the headline, he then could discover that an Israeli spokesman "said the first attack specifically targeted a cell responsible for a Wednesday rocket attack that exploded deep inside Israel."
The New York Times, which takes one of the most extreme positions against Israel, headlined Saturday, "Israeli Drone Strike Kills Militants in Southern Gaza." The headline offered no hint that the IDF was responding to Wednesday's missile attack.

Flying proudly over the birthplace of Libya's revolution, the flag of Al Qaeda
By Sam Greenhill
1st November 2011
The black flag of Al Qaeda was hoisted in Libya yesterday as Nato formally ended its military campaign. The standard fluttered from the roof of the courthouse in Benghazi, where the country's new rulers have imposed sharia law since seizing power. Seen as the seat of the revolution, the judicial building was used by rebel forces to establish their provisional government and media centre.

By Ted Belman
Ronni Shaked is a veteran Israeli Journalist presently working for Yedioth Aronoth. He knows all the leading players in Israeli politics and in Hamas and Fatah. Today he gave a talk to international journalists at Media Central. I was there and the topic was Shalit, Hamas and Fatah.
My best take away was that Israel has no interest in trying to reach a deal and is merely playing the game. Of course many think the game is fraught with peril and that Israel should abandon Oslo and annex all or part of J&S. The GOI has a different view. They like the status quo of no state and no occupation. Its something in between. By no occupation, I mean, the Palestinians have full autonomy. They are our biggest trading partner and cooperate with us on security. Also if Oslo was abrogated, thereby ending the peace process, Israel would become an occupier and be responsible for picking up the tab for the Palestinian welfare. Presently the US and the EU are contributing $1 billion per year. Meanwhile Israel keep building her economy and her presence in J&S and Jerusalem. As it happens, this suits Abbas just fine. The security cooperation keeps him alive. The money is flowing and the economy is growing. He is strutting the world's stage and is feted everywhere. The only people who don't like him are his own people. But the polls indicate that the people like the status quo also. Most Arabs in Jerusalem don't want it divided and like the better standard of living they are experiencing. If Abbas were to sign a peace deal he would be signing his own death warrant.
Israel is also supporting Hamas by not killing their leaders or invading. She is also allowing construction materials to enter so that the conditions improve. Contrary to the propaganda, Arabs are better off in Gaza than they are in Egypt or Turkey. They don't have to worry about medical care or starvation like the others do.
Israel's strategy is to divide and grow.
Hamas has branded themselves as leaders of the resistance and rejection. They continue to fire rockets to protect this mantle. Israel doesn't really retaliate because she doesn't want to hurt their infrastructure and instead, fires missiles at an empty airfield to make some noise. Of course she kills terrorists when she can. But she doesn't assassinate their leaders.
Hamas and Fatah are at logger heads and a unification agreement is nowhere in sight. Israel wants to keep it that way.
Prisoners
Israel treats her convicted terrorists, like political prisoners. That means they all have radio and television, prepare their own food, wear their own clothes rather than prison garb, and have visitors. Up until recently they were allowed to enroll in university and many matriculated and even earned PhD's. In addition they are not put to work as other prisoners in Israeli jails are. Israeli treatment of them compares favourably with anywhere else in the world.
These prisoners are very organized. Their prison leaders require them to pray when appropriate and exercise in recess. They are allowed to watch television for only two hours a day. The rest of the time they are expected to take part in study groups or other educational activities. They learn languages or terrorism or both or anything else they want. Though life is good in Israeli prison, they still find time to go on strike to demand whole chickens today and something else tomorrow. Must not lose sight of the resistance.

- In this article, published in the leading liberal pan Arab "Elaph", Egyptian liberal writer Dr. Essam Abdallah exposes the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood within the Obama Administration and the campaign led by CAIR and its allies against Middle East Christians, US experts and American Muslim reformers. Abdallah's article is powerful evidence to a reckless policy of backing Islamists, perpetrated by the Obama Administration and its advisors on Islamic affairs. The Editors.

These reports reveal the depth of the below-the-surface coordination between the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iranian regime and the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Syria, Tunisia, Libya and Jordan.

By Victor Sharpe, Family Security Matters No, the terror will continue so long as Israel and the IDF merely retaliates against each and every separate Muslim Arab crime against the Jewish state's civilian population. As one person, commenting on a blog, stated: "Israel's taking out a few rocket launchers is like giving aspirin for cancer. It's only a band aid - not a cure." These last few days, Israeli cities and villages have been bombarded with dozens of Grad and other missiles from Gaza; lethal weapons, many brought in from Libya. Last Wednesday, October 26, 2011, a Grad rocket brought into Gaza from one of Gaddafi's looted weapons stockpiles, was fired into an Israeli town. This began a relentless daily barrage. There was no Israeli response until the following Saturday when a gang of Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists were spotted preparing to launch several more Grad missiles at Israeli civilian targets.

It should not be the business of the European Union to determine that another Arab state carved out of former Mandated Palestine is a sine qua non for Israel in order to achieve a so-called peace with the Arab world.

http://www.cyprus-mail.com/jewish-detention-camps/jewish-detention-camps-cyprus-remembered/20111026 The University of Cyprus is dueto host a hotly-anticipated lecture by Professor Emanuel Gutmann entitled, The Jewish Detention Camps in Cyprus (1946-1949): the Memories of a Contemporary Witness. In the second half of the 1940s Cyprus become the temporary refuge for tens of thousands of Jews. These events have been well documented in Israeli history but relatively untold in the history of Cyprus. The camps played a role in both the independence movement of Cyprus and the creation of the state of Israel. In this light, the testimony of Prof Gutmann is of great interest in understanding the history of the detention camps. Fleeing post-war Europe, survivors of the Holocaust found themselves barred from entering Palestine due to British quotas.

Muslims begin moving to non-Muslim countries in increasing numbers and the beginning of cultural conflicts are visible, though often subtle.
- First migration wave to non-Muslim "host" country.
- Appeal for humanitarian tolerance from the host society.

- High Muslim birth rate in host country increase Muslim population.
- Mosques used to spread Islam and dislike of host country & culture.
- Calls to criminalize "Islamophobia" as a hate crime.
- Threatened legal action for perceived discrimination.
- Offers of "interfaith dialogue" to indoctrinate non-Muslims.

SCHOOL CHOICE ISSUE
NO VOUCHERS FOR YOU
As you are aware, the Senate passed the school voucher bill (SB1) last week with 60 pages of amendments. Although the bill has three main parts; vouchers for low-income students, charter school reforms and an Educational Improvement Tax Credit increase, our focus right now is the inequity in the voucher program. It is being touted that school choice saves lives , yet only low-income families' lives will be saved under SB1. It is unconscionable that our Senators would claim that SB1 would rescue all children from failing schools, when thousands of children will be left behind simply because of their income.
For example, Duquesne Consolidated School students who are low-income would qualify for a $13,905 voucher yet the "working poor" and "middle income families" will be left to fend for themselves in violent failing schools. $13,905 dollars? Why are we subsidizing failing schools, making life or death decisions based soley on income AND handing out $13 thousand dollar checks. If our legislators truly cared about rescuing students from the bottom 5% labeled persistently failing schools, they would rescue all students who are at risk. SB1 is an atrocity. What is even more disheartening is the fact that the "working poor" and the "middle income" families believe that they are included in SB1. It is highly unlikely that they will ever be included in any choice bill. The government is taking clear advantage of those families who have been able to make that financial sacrifice to send their children to private school. For those families that cannot afford to do so, you are being sentenced to attend a failing school where violence is inevitable.
The Coalition for Real School Choice, a group of 22 grassroots organizations has been focused on rescuing all students from failing schools. We have come to terms with the "voucher" concept simply because our legislators are married to the idea of vouchers and they are incapable of thinking outside the "school choice" box. At this point, the only viable option for rescuing all students from failing schools has been the voucher program. It is our intent to push the envelope and start a new dialogue of Educational Savings Accounts once this debate is settled. We have a lot of work to do this month.
From Carlo Grilletto:
My comments: If Corbett is playing a political game to satisfy inner city popularity, then I would expect the Tea Parties to reject this and support equal opportunity for all, in a similar manner that they oppose Progressive redistribution of wealth. I don't see why any Tea Partier or any conservative would support a redistribution of wealth issue. SB1 appears to be more in line with Occupy Wall Street thinking. UNITEPA UPDATE: VOUCHER BILL ATROCITY: This will cost the commonwealth $250 million per year starting in year 4. SB1 supporters only mention the initial, lower ramp up costs. Also, it creates NEW bureaucratic positions in Harrisburg costing us $1mm per year plus expenses. This bill is well intentioned by those supporting it. However, if you got into the grassroots to constrain government and reduce government, this is not the approach. Consider reaching out to your representative and spread the word to others.

CURL: The very angry first lady Michelle Obama
By Joseph Curl
-
The Washington Times
Sunday, October 30, 2011
Michelle's back, and she's madder than ever. She was already pretty angry, seemingly unhappy with just about everything. As her husband wrapped up the Democratic nomination in 2008, she let fly her real feelings: "For the first time in my adult lifetime, I'm really proud of my country." A few months into her job as first lady, her French counterpart asked how she liked the gig: "Don't ask!" she reportedly spat. "It's hell. I can't stand it!"
She even seems to be mad at her silver-tongued husband. When the two were to set off on a luxurious 10-day vacation to Martha's Vineyard, she left early - four hours early - and flew up alone. And those private vacations. She's traveled to some of the world's most plush resorts, taking 42 days off in the past year - that'd be eight weeks of vacay time if she held down a normal job.
Now, she is ready to spew her bilious disgust with America on the campaign trail. A dignified, transcendent first lady? No chance. Michelle is going to break with a hundred years of tradition and play the role of attack dog, heaping derision on her husband's political opponents like no other first lady before her.

Flip through enough of the 99 percent signs and you realize that the majority of that demographic aren't complaining about the lack of financial regulation or income inequalities, so much as they're upset that they took on loans to pay for college degrees to get jobs that don't actually exist. The fault here isn't Wall Street's, it's a policymaking apparatus that decided the way to deal with the loss of manufacturing jobs was to get as many college graduates out there as possible to create the industries of tomorrow. This was Clinton's platform and it's Obama's "Winning the Future" platform, pump enough money into education and the jobs will create themselves. The Dot Com boom in the nineties seemed to back up that policy with entirely new companies springing to life with valuations in the hundreds of millions and twenty somethings at the helm. But a good deal of those companies were nothing more than the foam on another bubble-- and more problematically the cream of the tech companies were created by college dropouts. Even more problematically, the tech companies liked to save money by importing Chinese and Pakistani employees on H1-B visas as cheap labor, while their lobbies insisted that this would protect "American" innovation. But the real problem was that swapping manufacturing for college degree jobs solved nothing. American companies that manufacture anything become the tip of an outsourced iceberg. All the companies with the shiny logos depend on Chinese manufacturing and raw materials. They can't create anything that the People's Republic of China can't take away from them when the time is right. American companies aren't outsourcing labor to China, China is outsourcing design and marketing to them and allowing them to serve as middlemen between Chinese manufacturers and American consumers, until a Chinese company decides to buy their product unit or its reverse engineered copies of their products are good enough that they invest the money in a marketing campaign to establish their own trusted brand.

Illinois to Shut Down Religious Adoption Agencies Over Politics, Not Quality of Care
Earlier this year, the state of Illinois moved to force religious-based children's services to break their religious principles and give children in their charge to homosexual couples. Organizations such as Catholic Charities have been told by the state that they either break their religious principles or face being shut down by the state. So, pursuant to that agenda, the state has determined that all children currently in the hands of religious adoption agencies need to be removed immediately.
Representing Catholic Charities of three Illinois Roman Catholic Dioceses, the Thomas Moore Society filed an emergency motion to prevent the state from removing all the children in its care. Unfortunately, an Illinois appellate court refused to overturn the trial court's decision to remove the children during the appeal process in which lawyers are now engaged (filings here and here).
Still, other motions made in the emergency motion were granted. Thomas Moore informs that the matter "is now on an expedited schedule for briefing in the Appellate Court." The fate of the children remains unknown at this point.
So what was so bad that the State of Illinois felt it necessary to take all children away from religious-based organizations? Have there been cases of abuse? Perhaps children's services from religious-based groups have been rated lowly? Have adopting parents complained?

Our prize is finding America's soul again
Nov 01, 2011 06:13 am | Coach Collins
By Emma K. Emmett, staff writer
Political payoffs, public bribery, whipping up racial and class hatred, planning and actually encouraging civil unrest, rewarding sloth, irresponsibility and lawlessness while punishing producers and the law-abiding, demonizing political enemies as terrorists while aiding and abetting real terrorists and bowing down to foreign powers.
Have I left anything out? Plenty. Forcing radical and unpopular policies into law by executive order as a means to circumvent elected lawmakers and the Constitution, publicly announcing which laws will and will not be enforced; feigning dedication to a country which has entrusted him with enormous power while taking real and measurable actions to weaken the economy and the defenses of that country.
This and more has been hiding in plain view. Does it chill your spine to think about what has been happenin' in these United States behind the scenes?

The Scariest Thing About This Halloween
By Colin Hanna
October 31, 2011 | FoxNews.com
Today is Halloween, the day that millions of Americans will pretend that they are scaring one another. Yet this Halloween could actually turn out to be truly scary, because on or about this day, a genuinely frightening economic milestone will be reached: our national debt will equal the size of the U.S. economy.
Yes, our debt, which has passed $15 trillion and continues to mount, now equals 100% of gross domestic product (GDP), or the sum of everything we produce annually.
This marks a tipping point for America.
When an individual's debt is too high, they either default or claim bankruptcy, as millions of Americans have done in the past two years during the economic slowdown.
The United States of America, unlike its European counterparts, has no one to bail us out.

Morning Bell: The Truth About Public School Teacher Pay
Mike Brownfield
November 1, 2011
Last winter, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie (R) traveled his state, holding a series of townhalls in which he touted a significant but politically unpopular plan: asking public school teachers to accept a pay freeze and begin contributing 1.5 percent of their salaries toward their health care plans, whereas before they paid nothing. It's a battle that pitted Christie against powerful teachers unions, and it's a fight that has brought the issue of teacher pay to the center of the public square.
That battle has played itself out across the country. Earlier this year in Wisconsin, Governor Scott Walker (R) faced a $3 billion structural deficit and the fourth-highest tax burden in the country. Among the reforms he enacted were limits to collective bargaining power and reform of public employee benefit plans, which included asking public-sector employees (including teachers) to make a 5.8 percent contribution into their pension plans and pick up the tab for 12 percent of their health care benefits, whereas before they paid nothing. Walker's actions led to unionized education employees leaving schools in protest and Democratic lawmakers fleeing the state in order to prevent the plan from passing the legislature.
Today, Governor John Kasich of Ohio (R) faces a similar fight. Earlier this year, the state legislature enacted reforms of public sector union benefits, but now the issue is up for repeal in a statewide ballot initiative.

Public school teachers make more than private sector workers
By: Examiner Editorial | 10/31/11
We can already hear the anguished, angry protests of the National Education Association and American Federation of Teachers. But our headline captures the essence of an important new study being released today by Jason Richwine of the Heritage Foundation's Center for Data Analysis and American Enterprise Institute's Andrew Biggs. Richwine and Biggs found that when public school teachers and private sector workers are compared objectively on the basis of cognitive skills -- rather than years of service or educational attainment -- the educators enjoy higher compensation -- contrary to the claims of union officials in public debate and in negotiations with school boards.
This is seen most dramatically when workers switch from non-teaching jobs to teaching jobs. Such a move typically results in a wage increase of approximately nine percent. "Teachers who change to non-teaching jobs, on the other hand, see their wages decrease by roughly 3 percent. This is the opposite of what one would expect if teachers were underpaid," Richwine and Biggs said.

Reject a Super Committee Tax Hike
|
The so-called "super committee" was created to solve our nation's dire fiscal problems. One look at Europe and the stakes are clear: massive unemployment, social unrest and waning influence throughout the world. We cannot allow that to be America's future, which is why conservatives should want the "super committee" to succeed in enacting real reforms.
Unfortunately, the "super committee" is veering off course and the odds are growing that massive tax hikes will be part of a final deal. Even worse, not all Republicans are willing to take massive tax hikes off the table. According to news reports, more than 100 House members - Republicans and Democrats alike - sent a letter to the "super committee" urging a "big, grand bargain - taking nothing off the table." In Washington, that is code for a tax increase.
>> Weigh in on our site: discuss how conservatives can reject tax hikes.
Here are the criteria conservatives should use to judge whether the "super committee" is serious:
· Real spending cuts, to both discretionary and mandatory spending
· No tax increases, period
>> Learn more: Find out what else is at stake with the Super Committee.
Together, conservatives can fight to save the American Dream from the Washington Establishment and big government special interests, which are entrenched on both sides of the partisan aisle.

Self-reported gun ownership in U.S. is highest since 1993
Even Dems are buying guns
Forty-seven percent of American adults currently report that they have a gun in their home or elsewhere on their property. This is up from 41% a year ago and is the highest Gallup has recorded since 1993, albeit marginally above the 44% and 45% highs seen during that period.
The new result comes from Gallup's Oct. 6-9 Crime poll, which also finds public support for personal gun rights at a high-water mark. Given this, the latest increase in self-reported gun ownership could reflect a change in Americans' comfort with publicly stating that they have a gun as much as it reflects a real uptick in gun ownership.

The proponents of the "Religion of Peace" tried to silence us and their efforts backfired... massively. As you may already know, due to "supposed threats" from Islamic groups, Amerimar Enterprises, the owner of The Hutton Hotel cancelled their contract to host the Preserving Freedom Conference.
But when God closes one door, he always opens another. The Preserving Freedom Conference has changed venues and will now take place on November 11, 2011 at the Cornerstone Church on 726 West Old Hickory in Madison, Tennessee.
And the publicity generated by the egregious actions of The Hutton Hotel and the proponents of Sharia is turning what was going to be an event attended by hundreds of conservative activists across the country into an event that may be attended by a thousand or more. Yes, their attempts to silence us failed and demonstrate more clearly than ever why this conference is required. It is required not only to educate American citizens, but to strategically plan ways that will prevent the implementation of Sharia Law in the United States.
You still have time to register for this pivotal event at a reduced price of $20.00. For more information, go to http://shariafreeusa.ettend.com/ . We hope to see you there.

|

Tuesday, November 1, 2011 To: Friends & Supporters From: Gary L. Bauer [This is a special follow-up report on the allegations against Herman Cain. Our regular "End of Day" will arrive later this afternoon.] The "High-Tech Lynching" Of Herman Cain Back in May, Herman Cain told Byron York, "I'm ready for the same high-tech lynching that [Clarence Thomas] went through -- for the good of this country." That day has come. Just like Clarence Thomas, the media have dredged up unproven, decades-old allegations of sexual harassment in a desperate attempt to derail his campaign. It was amazing to see how quickly Big Media made this the most important issue confronting the country. CBS led its evening news broadcast with a story about Cain. The front page of today's New York Times features a rehash of the Politico report. Unbelievably, the Times dedicated seven reporters to the story! Contrast how the media handles allegations against a conservative versus real infidelity by a liberal. Big Media looked the other way and did its best to ignore the John Edwards cheating scandal. In fact, it was left to a tabloid to expose the truth! To keep the Cain story going today, some media outlets are focusing on inconsistencies in Cain's statements. Yesterday morning Cain said he had no knowledge of any settlements. Later, speaking with Greta Van Susteren on Fox News, Cain described a conversation with his general counsel at the National Restaurant Association about a settlement. Cain said:
"My general counsel said this started out where she and her lawyer were demanding a huge financial settlement... I don't remember a number... But then he said because there was no basis for this, we ended up settling for what would have been a termination settlement. Maybe three months salary. I don't remember. It might have been two months. I do remember my general counsel saying we didn't pay all of the money they demanded."
But on the most important issue Cain continues to categorically deny harassing anyone. Now former colleagues are stepping up to defend him. Sibby Wolfson, Cain's executive assistant for seven years, told The Weekly Standard, "It's just not Herman." Asked if she had ever seen Cain exhibit any inappropriate behavior, Wolfson said, "Nothing. Absolutely nothing. In fact, I think Herman was careful to act in the opposite way." Matt Carrothers, who worked for Cain for three and a half years, said, "Never once have I ever seen anything but professional behavior. I find [the allegations] extremely hard to believe. This is a man of incredible character. He has nothing but respect for women." What Do You Think? When I polled readers of this daily report several weeks ago, Herman Cain was the clear favorite. The Des Moines Register, which recently found Cain narrowly leading among likely Iowa caucus goers, called back more than 20 Cain supporters and found none were wavering so far. What about you? If you are a Cain supporter, does this story worry you? Do you think it is a smear? Do Cain's varying responses regarding his knowledge of settlements give you second thoughts? And if things get worse for Cain, who is your second choice? Please use this link to respond.

Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac executives get big housing bonuses
$12M in bonuses
The Obama administration's efforts to fix the housing crisis may have fallen well short of helping millions of distressed mortgage holders, but they have led to seven-figure paydays for some top executives at troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The Federal Housing Finance Agency, the government regulator for Fannie and Freddie, approved $12.79 million in bonus pay after 10 executives from the two government-sponsored corporations last year met modest performance targets tied to modifying mortgages in jeopardy of foreclosure.

Public broadcasting: How viewers' money is spent
Execs getting big money
When Georgia Public Broadcasting and Public Broadcasting Atlanta were tirelessly seeking your support during fall pledge drives this week, they were also asking you to support six-figure salaries for several executives.
PBA's longtime chief executive, Milton Clipper, for example, recently got a raise from his board and will receive $280,000 this year in salary and bonus. A review by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution shows that seven other people at PBA, which operates WABE-FM and PBA30 television, earned six-figure compensation during the fiscal year that ended in June 2010, the latest year for which records are available.

Poll: For economy fix, Americans pick Reagan over Roosevelt
People know FDR was full of it
Ronald Reagan beat out Franklin Delano Roosevelt as the former president Americans would like to see in the White House during these trying economic times, a new 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll finds.
Thirty-six percent of those polled said they wanted the Gipper to lead America out of the economic crisis, while 29 percent picked Roosevelt. Thomas Jefferson came in third place with the support of 14 percent of those polled, followed by Roosevelt's successor Harry Truman at 8 percent. William Henry Harrison, who was inaugurated in March 1841 and died one month later, came in last with 1 percent support.

Supporting Cain, GOP base evokes Thomas hearing
National Org. of Women already dissing Cain
Conservatives rallied around Herman Cain as he battles sexual harassment allegations, likening the attacks on the Republican presidential contender to what they describe as the "high-tech lynching" of another prominent black Republican: Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
The forceful early reaction to the Cain firestorm - fueled by racially charged rhetoric - suggests the Georgia businessman's attempt to cast himself as a victim of the media and liberals is, so far, paying dividends among his conservative Republican base, who will hold considerable sway in selecting the party's nominee. But the accusations against Cain, an untested newcomer on the political scene, may give more moderate GOP voters pause and could cause would-be donors to shy away even as Cain works to capitalize on his rising poll numbers.

Lil Wayne drops deep message in 'How to Love' video
Very pro-life
If fans already thought that Lil Wayne put his emotions on display on "How to Love," off Tha Carter IV, wait until they get a load of the video, which premieres online on Wednesday (August 24). The Chris Robinson-directed clip is filled with drama and social commentary, telling the story of a beautiful young woman who stumbles into every imaginable pitfall.
The video opens in an abortion clinic, where a woman lies in a gown on the operating table. Suddenly she changes her mind and flies off the table and through the clinic's hall, choosing to keep her child. Shortly after that, the song's acoustic guitar licks drop in and we see a shirtless Wayne alone in a dimly lit hallway, singing, "You had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart, never really had luck, could never figure out how to love."

Guide for the Perplexed
by Dr. Yasser Dasmabebi | Oct 26th, 2011
I have come to realize just how difficult it may be to decipher news about the Middle East, Islam, Israel, the Arab World, and all these powerful and explosive issues of our times for those who rely on such media stalwarts as The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the major television networks, cable news, etc. for their information. For example, how is a person to ascertain whether the slayer of a family is a terrorist or a militant or a gunman or an assailant or an activist or a freedom-fighter? So, purely as a public service, I have organized the following glossary of the most pertinent terms and expressions, as typically used in the above-mentioned news sources. I hope, insha'allah, the reader will find it helpful to unravel the Gordian Knot of language that is today's (and yesterday's and tomorrow's) Middle East!

House State Government Committee Advances Legislation to Criminalize Human Smuggling and Protect PA Jobs
HARRISBURG -Pennsylvania House State Government Committee Majority Chairman Representative Daryl Metcalfe (R-Butler) commended the decisive majority of committee members who voted with him today in bipartisan fashion to advance two more essential reforms from the National Security Begins at Home package (House Bill 856 and Senate Bill 637) to the House floor for consideration.
House Bill 856 would establish a third-degree felony against any individual who knowingly engages in human smuggling. Previously adopted in the state Senate, Senate Bill 637 would require that all contractors and subcontractors performing work on taxpayer-funded projects verify their employees' eligibility to work in Pennsylvania through the federal government's free E-verify system.
"Shutting down Pennsylvania's illegal alien invasion involves shutting off the economic faucets of jobs and public benefits that are enticing illegal aliens to infiltrate our borders in the first place," said Metcalfe. "Both of the commonsense reforms advanced to the House floor today and those in previous weeks are specifically focused on protecting the lives, liberty, property and jobs of Pennsylvania citizens against foreign invasion. Once these economic attractions are severed at the source, Pennsylvania's estimated 140,000 illegal alien invaders will have no other option but to self-deport, as is occurring in several other states that have taken similar legislative action, including as Arizona, Georgia and Alabama."
Additional National Security Begins at Home legislation approved by the House State Government Committee and currently awaiting consideration on the House floor includes:
- House Bill 439, scheduled for second consideration on the House floor Wednesday, would terminate the professional license of any employer who knowingly hires an illegal alien.
- House Bill 865 would establish legal and economic sanctions against any illegal alien "sanctuary city."
- House Bill 798 would require the Pennsylvania State Police to maintain criminal history records of previously detained illegal aliens.
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) confirms that final passage of the National Security Begins at Home package could save Pennsylvania taxpayers $1.4 billion annually.
"Whether they invade Pennsylvania to smuggle drugs, steal jobs or to leech off the Commonwealth's over-generous public welfare system, each and every illegal alien's first step across our border is a criminal violation of our nation's immigration laws," said Metcalfe. "Since the federal government remains AWOL in fulfilling its constitutional obligation to defend the states against foreign invasion, Pennsylvania state lawmakers have no choice but to stand together to advance the National Security Begins at Home package."

Obama's TSA Ignored Cancer Risks from TSA Scanners By Ben Johnson, The White House Watch
Last year, this author reported that the TSA had minimized the risk new X-ray scanners posed to travelers. Today, ProPublica has an in-depth article detailing precisely how the government, in a fit of crony capitalism, ran roughshod over public health concerns to place the invasive technology in 250 airports - and cause an estimated six to 100 cases of cancer in travelers each year.
It begins by noting the deception involved in a September 23, 1998, meeting in Maryland to evaluate the Rapiscan Secure 1000 -- the "porn scanners" now ubiquitous in American airports manned by the fearless functionaries of the TSA. At the time, there were only 20 such machines in the nation. Its inventor, Steven W. Smith, assured panelists....

Enlightened Liberals Spread Vicious Anti-Black Stereotypes Against Herman Cain By Floyd and Mary Beth Brown, FloydReports.com
Herman Cain, as a conservative black man, faces unprecedented bigotry from a liberal media that constantly applauds itself for enlightened attitudes.
One of the ugliest of racial stereotypes is that black men have large and uncontrollable sexual impulses. Many a hanging tree across America silently testifies to the unproven allegations that a black man made unwanted advances to a local white girl. Alleged rape or unwanted sexual contact was a constantly used tool by Southern elites to unburden their communities of black men they didn't like or feared.
Now, the liberal elite in the media have decided the Cain Train has gotten too long....

Tonight on GBTV: The 'Occupy' movement's rape problem, and how the 'collective' mindset will only make it worse. How much worse? Find out tonight at 5pm only on GBTV! Watch Glenn's preview commentary HERE.
Will allegations derail Herman Cain?
Herman Cain interviewed with Greta Van Susteren last night and admitted that he did indeed know about one of the so-called sexual harassment cases against him back in the 1990s. Cain maintains his innocence and says he didn't do anything wrong. So why'd he settle? Glenn, Pat & Stu debate whether the allegations against Cain have any merit and if Cain's response will help or make it worse. WATCH
Coca-Cola's ridiculous Polar Bear campaign
One of America's favorite soft drinks has partnered with an alarmist eco-group to try and help save the polar bear from supposed extinction. There are a few problems with this campaign. First of all, it's not even correct that polar bears are in decline - they've increased population five fold in the past several years. Secondly, how does it affect anyone's life in any way if polar bears go away? Isn't this a good thing for all the cute seals? Glenn, Pat & Stu put this campaign in its place on radio today. WATCH

Imus to Beck: "I want you to cry for us" during The Snow Angel interview
Glenn appeared on the older-than-he-looks Don Imus program and Imus was very upset at Glenn.

TRIVIA: Does Occupy Wall Street have more protesters or perverts?
If you said perverts -- you're probably right! There's no way to prove that, of course, but rapes and sexual assaults seem rampant at Occupy encampments. With each passing day there seem to be more reports of assaults - one OWS protester even declared it was unsafe for women to be there. And there's yet another new case of assault - this time a deaf man was supposedly raped. To make matters worse the OWS crowd has decided to handle these cases internally. Translation: they will be ignored. Get the details HERE.

Beck: Third Great Awakening is HERE

A lesson for the Obama Administration: How do you create jobs? You actually go out and produce something people want! Glenn is doing just that with his 1791 clothing line as the manufacturer has recently had to expand its staff to deal with the demand. The Blaze has the story HERE. New 1791 items were just released today - check them out HERE.

Whoops! Obama breaks promise to not hire lobbyists
If you remember way back to the 2008 campaign one of President Obama's main talking points was that he wouldn't hire any lobbyists and that he was going to end corruption yadda yadda yadda. It all sounded nice in theory, but not surprisingly Obama proved to be like every other politician before him. Full of crap. Yup, that promise has gone down in a blaze of glory. Find out how HERE.
