Just a Quick Note

My apologies to those who follow my blog for the dearth of posts in the last few weeks. Life has filled my schedule with holiday preparations, celebrations and illness.

I have also signed up with Verify the Recall to do my duty as a citizen to ensure that the recall efforts are clean. (And you do not have to live in WI to help with this effort.)Given my conservative leanings, I'm sure that some would be surprised by such a move. Part of conservatism, true conservatism is supporting clean and honest elections. This will keep me busy for a few more weeks, but in the meantime, please feel free to listen to my BTR radio show.(Link in the sidebar)

There are so many items to call to attention.
The possible release of Guantanamo Bay inmates for the privilege of negotiating with terrorists. This shocks me as during my youth, I heard repeatedly that "the USA does NOT negotiate with terrorists" and now here we are. Sounds like giving aid and comfort(AGAIN) to the enemy by this administration to me.
There were a few articles that indicated that the release of a US POW-possibly Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl- might be a part of these talks, but so far that seems to be just a rumor. As I note in my BTR show (Negotiating with Terrorists), the disappearance of Sgt. Bergdahl is not without questions. But the bottom line is that this young man needs to be found and returned to America before those questions can be addressed properly.

The upcoming vote on SOPA and PIPA, legislation that will allow the government to censor web content without due process. Just for the information of my readers, as I note on the sidebar, you may use any of my posts as long as you note from whence they come. I tend to prefer to write my own rather than reposting someone else's articles. That said, there are a few posts that were generously shared with me and I would ask my readers to respect those. If SOPA and/or PIPA should pass, and blogger gets shut down for any reason, I will do my best to be moving this blog to www.iratetirelessminority.com within a reasonable span of time. I will do my best to keep posting.



Then there is the Enemy Expatriation Act. For those who were reassured by the exception for American citizens in that egregious additions to the NDAA(section 1021 and 1022), be alarmed, be very alarmed. The EEA has the potential to strip groups of Americans of their citizenship without due process. Of course, you can appeal, but that assumes that you haven't been picked up under the measures in the NDAA. This bill was sponsored in the House as H.R. 3166 by Rep. Charles dent of PA. And sponsored in the Senate as S by Sen. Lieberman of New Jersey. Although Senator Lieberman contends that "an expatriating act must be committed with the intent of relinquishing citizenship status for loss of citizenship to occur.", I view this addition to the existing law as a slippery slope down which America does not need to go.

I think, that with the links supplied, this should give my readers enough to ponder on for a bit. :)

"A Black Day for Austria"

"A Black Day for Austria"

Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff has been convicted of "denigrating a religion" because she commented that muhammad "had a thing for little girls". The fact that the man married a 6 year old and consummated that marriage when the girl was 9, apparently doesn't justify the utterance by Mrs. S-W of such an "excess of opinion" according to the judge. This is because the pedophile also had other wives that were not children. I am appalled.
If you would care to donate towards her legal costs, you may do so here.

Austria, by this ruling, seems to me to be giving the Islamic religion a form of legitimacy for its most unsavory and immoral elements. May God bring them to their senses quickly, because this is a very bad precedent for a civilized nation. There are some things that richly deserve to be denigrated, whether part of a religion or not. Shame on them.

"Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to fulfil the statutes and judgments which the LORD charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed." ~ 1Chron 22:13

Exercise: It Does a Republic Good.

A little bit ago, my family and I successfully completed the NRA's basic pistol shooting course. We did this because, well, because I insisted that, now that we have a concealed carry law in WI, it was our duty, even though all of us have had a modicum of training in the past, to become more knowledgeable about firearms. Those who choose not to carry should take such a class as well because it is a duty consistent with the right to bear arms to know how to use a firearm should you be put in a bad situation. Even though all the classes I had seen on-line in our area were full, a friend told us about some openings in his class, so off we went.


I'm so proud of my boy.

In addition to being a lot of fun, the class struck me as a picture of our larger rights and responsibilities as American citizens. We have self evident God given rights, yes, but they come with an equally self evident duty attached to them. That duty is to exercise those rights appropriately and responsibly. This is something that people tend to understand immediately when speaking about firearms, but not so much when it comes to our other self-evident rights. One of the most important duties that is required to maintain our rights is to exercise them appropriately at every opportunity.

We often don't think of exercising our freedom of speech, or our freedom of religion or our freedom from unreasonable search and seizure and all the rest as duties. We are usually all too happy to give them up at the drop of a hat when challenged. Just as it is an uneasy feeling to carry a firearm around with you, it is just as uneasy to exercise any of our other rights in the face of opposition or authority. Just look at how many people have tamely submitted to the TSA's unconstitutional searches. This is to say nothing of exercising our other self evident, but unnamed Constitutional rights, like the right of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children.


He's a good shot, too.

Think about that. We have a whole slew of other unnamed, yet self evident rights, to which we often do not lay claim, due to the fact that they are not named. Not only that, but we often give up our named rights out of ...what? Is it a wish to be nice? Is it a wish to be perceived as cooperative? Is it sheer ignorance of how those rights are to be appropriately exercised? Or is it cowardice?
I tend to think it is a combination of all those reasons and more. Whatever it is, we need to stop it. We are at, and possibly past, a tipping point, beyond which America no longer exists as the land of the free. We need to be exercising our rights. All of them. Every time it is appropriate to do so. What's more, we need to help each other stand up for those rights as well.


As you can see, those who exercise their rights, understand their responsibilities.

At first it will be scary, but, as you become more familiar with the process and the likely results, you will come to understand what the phrase "We The People" really means in the Constitution. Far from being a hindrance to the exercise of freedom, acceptance of that responsibility is what gives us the power to remain free. I know we've come a long way from the days of our founders, but I think we can still handle the risks and responsibilities that go along with the power to direct our own lives, don't you? Try it, you never know, it may be fun.


Even though he grumbled about it at first, if you enlarge the photo, you'll see that "Dad" enjoyed the class too.

"And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough" ~ Luke 22:35-38

"The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,

Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.

And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.

For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, even my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them:

And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the LORD.

But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity of Elam, saith the LORD." ~ Jer 49:34-39

Voting is an Act of Faith

Voting is a concrete demonstration of faith. Faith in our form of government and faith in our fellow man. It is a necessary demonstration of that faith because freedom isn't safe. Our fellows may do with their freedom that which we would rather they not do. That's the biggest danger of freedom. To vote to keep all of our freedoms intact is a vote that says "I trust my friends and neighbors to do that which is right, rather than that which is expedient for them or easy."

The two party system is killing us. Literally. It is nothing less than an easy button which the msm and the major parties have used to hijack the system. It is a lie and the most insidious of lies because it plays on the wish we all have to be winners.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to be a winner. There is something terribly wrong with allowing that wish to degrade your character. The truth is that there are over 200 presidential candidates registered with the FEC. How many of their names do you know? Have you heard of Samm Tittle? How about Gary Johnson or Phillip G. Pflughaupt? Have you done your due diligence to find the BEST candidate without regard to the one that the msm or either party declares is the only one that has a chance of winning? (Of course, if you believe them they will turn out to be right because you will vote how they tell you to, R or D, instead of voting for the best candidate.)

How faithless are we that we allow ourselves time after time after time to be deceived by this lie? This is the most concrete demonstration of our lack of faith in God, as a nation, that we could possibly make. Will people make fun of you for voting for an other than mainstream media candidate? Yes. Will they blame you for the wrong person being elected due to their own lack of faith, because you didn't join them in their comfortable lie? Yes. Are we the "Home of the Brave" or the Home of Timid"? Are we the "Land of the Free" or the "Land of the Lazy"? If we continue to use the two party system to direct our votes, then we are timid and lazy and we deserve the government we get.

I think we deserve better. Have faith that God, having given us such an exceptional nation, wants us to keep it. Do your part to keep it and restore it. The same God who told Noah to build the ark gave us this nation. We have the same choice as Noah, do the necessary work, or be destroyed along with the rest of the world.
Your choice.



"But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment."~ Matt 12:36

Taking Back Our Republic

Just an update. I have not added content to this page recently, not because there isn't anything worth adding or because I am busy or ill, but rather because I happen to think that this declaration is more important than anything else I could post at this point in history. See for yourself. Read it, Sign it, Share it and then Do it. Make sure your state's governor has a copy. Make sure they read it and give you feedback. This is our nation. It has been usurped and we must restore it. This, in my opinion is the last chance for We the People to do so peacefully.

Have you been waiting for a "Call to Arms" to restore and defend our republic? This is the call to action that we, the silent majority, have been awaiting. Our veterans defended us, now is the time to stand shoulder to shoulder with them and take our country back.

Find this Declaration at http://www.veterandefenders.org/DECLARATION-RESTORE-THE-CONSTITUTIONAL-REPUBLIC.pdf
Print it off and share it with any veterans you may know, your county sheriff, local, state and federal legislators and your clergy.
Then pressure your state legislators to collect federal taxes at the state level to use to restrain this sort of behavior by Washington now and in the future.
Pressure them to get the state's financial house in order and stop taking money from the federal government.
Get yourself and your neighbors prepared to take care of yourelves and each other in the event of civil unrest/ breakdown of services.

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 for peaceful disobedience.

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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
 Violations against Article IV of the U.S. Constitution - The State
 Violations against Article V of the U.S. Constitution - The Amendment Process
 Violations against Article VI of the U.S. Constitution - Oath to the Constitution
 Violations against the 1st Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 2nd Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 3rd Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 4th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 5th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 6th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 7th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 8th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 9th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Violations against the 10th Amendment of the Bill of Rights
 Unlawful use of Military force, here and abroad
 Violations of International Treaties and Laws
 Numerous violations of the public trust
 Misuse of the people’s resources
 The bankrupting of the nation, the states and the people
 Taxation without representation
 Confiscation and Redistribution of the people’s earned assets
 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

1. The immediate and unconditional orderly resignation of Barack Hussein Obama, II

2. 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 -

3. 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 -

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. 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 calling 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 fullblown
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!

"We shall never be abandoned by Heaven while we act worthy of its aid and protection."~ Samuel adams

"If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth." ~ Num 30:2

Another Country Heard From

Yes, the people in India have weighed in on the Gibson Guitar Raids.

"India's Timber Exporters' Association members say they will seek the intervention of Department of Foreign Trade and Chemical and Allied Export Promotion Council of India (CAPEXIL) to settle the issue. Association members are also planning to take up the issue with the Indian Embassy in the US."

Indian wood exporters see these raids as the work of disgruntled European Luthiers who sell inferior quality ebony and rosewood from other countries. That may be so, but it is American authorities who continue to have a problem with Gibson.

Upon reading the case file for the suit to regain possession of the wood that was seized in the first raid, I have to say that it looks to me like there is something else going on and that the government is behaving in a punitive fashion towards Gibson. For what reason, I am not as sure. Upon reading (at least the parts of the records that weren't sealed) it seems as though the government is trying to make Gibson "an offer they can't refuse".

Before the records on the case were sealed, it was made apparent that the government wished to retain possession of the wood as evidence in another long running case that they have been investigating. It looks very much to me as though there was to be an informal type of meeting to discuss that possibility when the government decided to raid Gibson again in August.
If that were not enough, now the Government is demanding that Gibson hand over yet more of the wood to them. If I were Mr. Juszkiewicz, I would cease to be very cooperative at that point.

That bare facts of the matter are that the government has seized two shipments of wood that was certified under the forest stewardship council. The government of India as well as India's Timber Exporters' Association say that the wood is legally a finished product under their laws and that the American government misinterpreted their laws and now the government wants Gibson to give up more of this legally finished, exported and purchased wood without having charged Gibson Guitars with any crime.

Now, I'm not saying that Gibson is pure as the driven snow, but in order for the law to be effective, it must be clear. The Lacey act is neither clear, nor set up for ease of compliance.

Doesn't sound like America to me. Okay, maybe a little like Chicago.If you would like to keep informed on this issue, check out these two facebook pages:Support for Gibson Guitars against DOJ intimidation and Musicians For Gibson Guitars And if you're in the Nashville area next weekend check out the Gibson Guitar rally

The reason I am so intent on this case is because it is demonstrating how we are losing our freedoms incrementally across the board. What can't be done with over criminalization and over regulation will be accomplished with intimidation. It behooves us all to keep an eye on this one. Perhaps I am overstating the case here, but a goodly part of the government's effectiveness depends upon the trust of the people. How much do you trust the government these days?

"I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;" ~ 1 Tim 2:1-3
