Founding Father Quote
The American Form of Government
Thursday, October 8, 2009
T R E A S O N
Our federal public servants swear to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. All federal public servants swear to do this. Are they doing it? We the People are supposed to hold these officials accountable to keep their oaths. Are we doing it? Unfortunately, the answer is “No” to both questions.
The federal/national government powers according to the Constitution of the United States are as follows:
“The powers allocated to the national government were highly important but carefully enumerated. The Constitution lists only twenty. These are the powers relating to foreign affairs, war, peace, national security, managing interstate commerce, federal taxes, naturalization, patents, bankruptcy laws, federal lands and property, handling federal finance, coining of money, fixing weights and measures, establishing post offices, setting up federal courts and handling crimes on the high seas or violations of the laws of nations.
“The Founders feared that federal officials and federal agencies would try to invade or control the activities assigned to the states. They therefore included the Tenth Amendment to remind the federal government that it had no authority in any area not specifically described in the Constitution.”[1]
This is the extent of the authority and power granted to the federal government. For more than a generation, We the People have been lax in our responsibility of making sure they did not overstep their boundaries. Today, we see the result. There are 435 members of the US House of Representatives, 100 US Senators, 9 US Supreme Court Justices and 1 US President. These 545 individuals have been allowed to usurp authority from the individual States and chip away at the freedom of every other citizen in the nation. We have watched these public servants change our country, one unconstitutional law at a time and we have done nothing. The result is the current members of the US Congress and the current President of the United States are committing treason against the United States.
Treason is defined as
1) the offense of acting to overthrow one’s government or to harm or kill it’s sovereign.
2) a violation of allegiance to one’s sovereign or to one’s state.
3) the betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith; treachery.
All three of these definitions of treason are actively being pursued and executed by our federal government. Our congress and president are not preserving, protecting or defending the Constitution of the United States – they are shredding it.
Let’s review, shall we? In September 2008, we were told by the former administration that we had to agree to spend $700 billion within a few days or the entire country’s financial system would collapse. The government gave the money to private banks and private financial institutions. The federal government has become a major shareholder in Citigroup, one of the world’s largest banks. Is the federal government given the authority to own, in whole or in part, private banks and financial institutions? No, it is not. This is treason.
Fannie May and Freddie Mac now control 90% of the mortgages in the country. This places the taxpayer at risk for over $5 trillion dollars. Is the federal government given the authority to own, in whole or in part, private property? No, it is not. This is treason.
Within a short time of taking office, President Obama successfully concluded a hostile takeover of General Motors and Chrysler, fired their CEOs and replaced them with political appointees. Is the federal government given the authority to own or control, in whole or in part, any private business or enterprise? No, it is not. This is treason.
The White House has appointed Kenneth Feinberg to tell American businesses how much money they are allowed to pay their CEOs. Is the federal government given the authority to tell private enterprise how much money they are to pay any or all employees? No, it is not. This is treason.
Recently, a bill was passed that will take all student loans out of the private sector and put them squarely in the lap of the federal government. Is the federal government given the authority to become a bank in order to loan money to individual citizens? No, it is not. This is treason.
The Federal Reserve, which is not a government agency but has been given control of our entire monetary system, is printing trillions of dollars and causing our currency to devalue. Because of the reckless spending and monetary policies of our government our currency is soon to be rejected by all nations as the world’s reserve currency. The intentional destruction of our currency and its value is treason.
There are many more actions of this government that are unconstitutional and treasonous but I will end with health care. The federal government is determined to completely take over the entire health care delivery system and the health insurance industry. Once this is accomplished, they will have the ability to take more of our hard earned money to waste however they see fit and they will be able to control our lives in ways we can only imagine at this point.
The President and Congress know We the People do not want this hostile takeover of the health care industry and, yet, instead of listening to We the People their intent is to pass the legislation anyway. Is the federal government given the authority to take over approximately 17% of the US economy and nationalize it? No, it is not. This is treason.
The federal government is given the authority to manage interstate commerce. Therefore, instead of a hostile takeover, they could break down all state barriers and allow all health insurance companies to sell insurance in any or all states of the union. This would be true competition.
Our president has appointed several dozen consultants, so called czars, that not only answer to him alone but a lot of them have contempt for the Constitution of the United States. This only makes it easier to accomplish their destruction of the country because there is no allegiance to our founding document. This is treason.
Instead of questioning our government and its actions, We the People have become lazy and self absorbed. If we don’t stand up now and stop this out of control government, we will soon be living in a Marxist state. This government, Democrats and Republicans, are committing treason, daily. They should be removed from office and face charges. Who will stand up and speak the truth? Who will have the courage to stop this treasonous federal government?

Where are the American Statesmen?
Where are the statesmen in America, today? Where are the men and women who would stand up and say, "I want to do what's best for the people, for the country and not for my party." Where are those people? When did it become the norm to go against the will of the people and to cherish the political party and winning above all else? When did it become the norm to destroy the foundations of our nation?
Here's a quote from a true statesman: "In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. From time to time we've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price."
"We hear much of special interest groups. Well, our concern must be for a special interest group that has been too long neglected. It knows no sectional boundaries or ethnic and racial divisions, and it crosses political party lines. It is made up of men and women who raise our food, patrol our streets, man our mines and factories, teach our children, keep our homes, and heal us when we're sick -- professionals, industrialists, shopkeepers, clerks, cabbies, and truckdrivers. They are, in short, ``We the people,'' this breed called Americans."

A Warning
Daniel Webster (1782-1852) was the son of a farmer. He became a lawyer, a congressman, a Senator and Secretary of State in two separate administrations. He was a champion for America, the constitution and the liberty enjoyed by its citizens.
Read carefully what he said, above. He passionately states that no matter what calamity befalls America, we can recover from them all accept the loss of our form of government and the loss of our liberty.
We are in the process of losing them both. The federal government has ventured into areas it was never intended to be in. It has intruded into the financial sector and is dictating how much money financial firms will be allowed to pay their employees. It now has ownership of at least 90% of the mortgages in this country. It has intruded into the automotive sector, fired its CEO and taken ownership of a private company. Just a few days ago, the U.S. House voted to eliminate all banks and financial firms from the student loan market so that only the federal government will be allowed to give loans to students. And, of course, it is desperately trying to take over the entire health care system and, thereby, giving them complete control over every aspect of our lives.
What has happened to our nation? When did we stop using the Constitution of the United States to guide our decisions in governing?
Read Daniel Webster’s quote, again. "Who shall frame together the skillful architecture which unites national sovereignty with the States rights, individual security, and public prosperity? No, if these columns fall, they will be raised not again." We are dangerously close to allowing these columns to fall.
We are under attack from our own federal government. These men and women swore an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” The size, scope and power of the federal government are quickly becoming our enemy. We must get off of our couches and get involved before we are devolved into a third world nation.
What shall we do? Get involved politically in your local community. Pay attention to what is going on in our nation’s capital. Pay attention to how your Representatives and Senators are voting on each piece of legislation. Call and write to your representatives letting them know how you want them to vote on issues they consider and, finally, vote. In 2010, all 435 members of the U.S. House and one third of the U.S. Senate will be up for election. Choose wisely. Our future and our precious freedom depend on We the People.

George Washington's Farewell Address
The Father of our Country spoke his farewell address to the nation on this date 213 years ago. He served two terms as President and then willingly went home instead of running for a third term. He set an example that would be copied by every President after him until FDR decided he wanted to be President for life. Our Constitution had to be amended to stop men from serving more than two terms because of FDR's refusal to step down.
I believe term limits should be imposed on every member of Congress, as well. Our government was set up with the idea that all men would serve for a short time, go home and give another citizen the chance to serve in the government.
Where are these statesmen today? Where are the selfless men and women who put their country first and go to Washington, D.C. for one or two terms and then go home to live under the laws they created? Where are the citizen legislators?
We the People have no one to blame but ourselves. We stopped electing honest, God fearing men and put dishonest men in office who want nothing more than to live off the People and enrich themselves at the expense of destroying our nation.
God, have mercy on us all!

Anniversary of our Constitution
On September 17, 1787 the Constitution of the United States was signed by the Founding Fathers of our nation. These men put their fortunes, their honor and their lives in jeopardy in order to form a more perfect union.
They formed the most unique nation in history comprised of several individual sovereign nation states. They also created a limited central government and expected future generations to treasure and keep what they had fought so hard to create.
We have failed them all. We have allowed the federal government to step outside of it's Constitutional authority for over a generation and now they threaten to control every aspect of our lives. We the People must reclaim the authority given to us by our founding documents and tell the federal government they have gone too far. They must operate within the boundaries set forth 222 years ago today.

Fred Thompson: Health Care Info
Page 425 of Health Care Bill - Listen to
this interview Fred Thompson's Radio Show interviewing Betsy
McCaughey (pronounced Mc Coy). Or look it up on
www.fredthompsonshow.com, under interviews.
On page 425 it says in black and white that EVERYONE on Social
Security, (will include all Senior Citizens and SSI people) will
go to MANDATORY counseling every 5 years to learn and to choose
from ways to end your suffering. Health care will be denied based
on age.
500 Billion will be cut from Seniors healthcare. The only way
for that to happen is to drastically cut health care, the oldest
and the
sickest will be cut first. Paying for your own care will not be
an
option.
Now, CALL YOUR PEOPLE IN WASHINGTON! Tell them to read page 425
if they don't read anything else. Surely some of them have
parents.
"ON PAGE 425 OF OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE BILL,
the Federal Government will require EVERYONE who is on Social
Security to undergo a counseling session every 5 years with the
objective being that they will explain to them just how to end
their own life earlier.
Yes...They are going to push SUICIDE to cut medicare spending!"

The Federalist
The Founding Fathers left a road map of what our government was supposed to look like and what the powers of our government were to be. The most important part of the foundation of this government was and still is, the people. It was our responsibility to elect honest, wise men that would be certain to keep the central government in its place and not let it override its authority granted by us.
As we read these articles today, known as The Federalist, has our nation adhered to the principles set forth by Publius (better known as Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay) or have We the People allowed the central government to grow into a behemoth that threatens to choke the last gasps of freedom from our lives and our land?
