KING GEORGE CREATING EAST-BLOCK AMERIKA By Chuck Baldwin July 19, 2002 NewsWithViews.com It should be obvious to everyone by now that, wittingly or not, George W. Bush is in the process of creating a communist-style form of government in the United States. As details emerge regarding his new Department of Homeland Security, we discover that Bush and his band of belligerent brothers have begun the process of turning the federal government into a gargantuan police state not seen since Hitler's Third Reich and Stalin's Soviet Union. According to press reports, Bush plans to do the following: 1. Merge 22 federal police and emergency agencies into his new Department of Homeland Security. (Say hello to the new SS Corps.) 2. Create standardized biometric travel documents ("Show me your papers or your iris. Sieg Heil.") 3. Develop "screening tools to predict human behavior, such as 'hostile intent.'" (Hello Dept. of Pre-Crimes.) 4. Allow federal police to search and seize at will. (Goodbye 4th Amendment.) 5. Allow federal police to incarcerate and indefinitely hold suspects without arrest or warrant and with no legal recourse by the person seized. (Goodbye 5th Amendment. Hello Gestapo.) 6. Implement a national driver's license. (Hello National ID.) 7. Allow the U.S. military to conduct lethal operations on U.S. soil. (Goodbye Posse Comitatus.) 8. Allow the President to unilaterally procure taxpayer dollars without the consent of Congress. (Goodbye U.S. Constitution.) 9. Allow the federal government to act in secret. (Hello East German Secret Police, Stasi. Goodbye Freedom of Information Act.) 10. Create a "Domestic Informant" program whereby millions of Americans are authorized to spy on their fellow citizens on behalf of the federal government. (Hello Communist Amerika.) According to the Sydney Morning Herald and other news outlets, Bush plans to enlist 1 in 24 Americans into a new citizen-spy department. This number dwarfs the number of citizen spies used by former East-Bloc countries. The Justice Department is scheduled to launch a pilot program next month in 10 cities using 1 million informants. The SMH rightly stated, "Historically, informant systems have been the tools of non- democratic states." It would seem that a "non-democratic" state is exactly what Bush is creating. In Nazi Germany, churches, pastors, and conservatives assisted the creation of tyrannical government. That is exactly what is happening right now in the United States. What we thought we needed to fear from liberals, we find being championed by conservatives. Right now, George Bush and his fellow travelers compose the greatest threat to freedom and constitutional government that exists. Instead of fighting terrorism, they are actually destroying the very principles of liberty that they claim to be protecting. America survived the attacks on September 11. It may not survive the Bush administration. |

Seems to me that the worst-possible-case interpretation is uniformly applied to each instance cited.
While I agree with you that some, if not all, of these proposals are problematic, we ought to keep in mind that they are [b]proposals[/b] which will be reviewed before being enacted. No doubt numerous Constitutional Rights and Civil Rights organizations will have their input, and appropriate safeguards and sunset provisions will be included in the final legislation. I understand your dislike of such proposals, and share them to an extent. However, in the absence of the above proposals, what would be your alternatives? Please don't suggest that we withdraw into Fortress America, as, regardless of the merits of such an idea, it is a bit late to do that now. More importantly, since the Terrs may be motivated by a variant of their religion that is inherently antagonistic to our Western culture, such withdrawal may well be ineffective in placating the Terrs, and possibly counterproductive. Again, [b]your[/b] specific proposals, please. |

These proposals trouble me as well. I think the problem is when they are in place for the next Klinton. Why can't we get over this PC BS and look to the source of the problem, muslims in our country? If they are citizens in good standing, fine, but quit letting them in the country!!! Obviously, the perps of 9-11 were all allowed in for no good reason. Round em up and get em out! Oh, and leave us red blooded Americans alone! Quit strip searching little old ladies at the airport while arabs walk by unmolested. We're to stupid for our own good! If these measures are put into place, the tangos have won without even a fight. Sad that some can't see it. One more time, QUIT LETTING THEM IN!!! SEARCH THEIR SHIPS AT SEA BEFORE THEY PORT!!!

[b]Bush Continues Clinton Agenda By Chuck Baldwin June 21, 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Referring to President G. W. Bush's new Homeland Security department, former President Bill Clinton told a gathering of Council on Foreign Relations members last week, "We have been building this for a long time." For once, Clinton told the truth. What he began constructing following the Oklahoma City bombing, Bush has succeeded in bringing to fruition. America is about to have its very own Gestapo. If Al Gore were president today, Republicans in Congress would no doubt rise in righteous indignation to quickly kill such a plan. However, with a fellow Republican in the White House, all such opposition has vanished. The bottom line is Bush is pursuing Clinton's agenda and getting a free pass. Consider this: Bush has already issued 57 executive orders and has already created 47 new federal agencies. His Justice Department has declared that U.S. citizens, whom it declares to be "Enemy Combatants," have no constitutional rights - none. Such people do not even have the fundamental right of legal representation. Georgetown University law professor David Cole rightly said, "This is really an astounding assertion of authority. It's not just that you have no right to a lawyer, it's that you have no right to even have a hearing. If this is true, then there is really no limit to the President's power to label U.S. citizens as bad people and then have them held in military custody indefinitely." Furthermore, Bush now says he has the right to initiate first strike attacks on any nation or people at (his) will. Imagine how future history will record America launching its own versions of Pearl Harbor. Bill Clinton received more good news from the Bush White House. Just yesterday, he learned that Attorney General John Ashcroft is ready to permanently close the government's investigations into Clinton's criminal activities. In other words, President Bush has declared that Bill and Hillary Clinton are above the law. Beyond that, Bush's support for liberal policies on things such as the federalization of airport security, proposed amnesty for illegal aliens, a boost in funding for Clinton's AmeriCorps program, a worst-ever education bill, and a constitutionally-challenged campaign finance reform bill simply reveal Bush's perpetual propensity to continue Clinton-style government. In spite of Bush's dismal record, he continues to receive the support and approbation of conservatives, pastors, and Republicans throughout the country. If Clinton would have known that a Bush administration would be this successful in promoting his policies and programs, he would have supported Bush and not Gore in the 2000 election. Maybe he did.[/b] [url]http://www.chuckbaldwinlive.com/bush21jun02.html[/url] |

Holy smokes guys ! Wouldn't it just be easier to convince Congress & Bush that we don't need any of this crap ? Instead we should just NUKE THE FUCK OUT OF THE SHITHOLE KNOWN AS THE MIDDLE EAST !

Liberty, my point is we need to quit focusing on people who aren't the problem, Americans. Our freedoms are going down the toilet and the tangos are, no doubt, happy about it. We need to get over our PC mindset and get to the root of this problem. We should have never changed a thing about our lifestyle. Instead, we should have NUKED the top 6 capitols of terror supporting arab countries on 9-12-01!!!!! I think they would have been impressed more by that response.

I know. We agree on alot. It's a sad state of affairs. Hopefully opposition will form from all corners (left and right) of our society to stop this before it happens. I shudder to think what freedoms we would lose if another attack takes place.

Liberty86, you sure your name aint Duke Nuke'Em.
You wrote: "Instead, we should have NUKED the top 6 capitols of terror supporting arab countries on 9-12-01!!!!! I think they would have been impressed more by that response" Well this would be an interesting idea but that would be taking out aggression upon innocents and non-combatants and make us worse than the 'Sand People'. Curious though, what top 6 capitols do you you refer to: Tripoli, Kabul, Ryadh, Baghdad, and of course Tel Aviv right. After all Israel is waist deep in complicity and foreknowledge of 9/11, and had hundreds of its operative picked up by the Feds after 9/11. Did you know even Mexico picked up a bunch. The reason I defend the 'Sand People' is, when I hear you characters throw the blame around, and be entirely unfair, you make me so sick I try to defend the undefendable. And yes, Baldwin is right, it is only a matter of time when we start going into camps, 'for our own safety' etc. In a way, history unfolds before us. THIS IS HISTORY.

Just to clarify my position. I believe Bush is a respectable guy. I thank God that Gwhore isn't president. I do think changes made that restrict our freedom in the name of fighting terror are miss guided. It's a win for the terrorists. There is much potential for misuse of this newfound govt power in the future. Instead we should make it understood to these "people" who commit terror that their behavior is unacceptable. They understand one thing, unmerciful violence, and nothing else. It's our way of life on the line. I say give them what they understand and put a stop to this now. They will only get WMD for their future terror action. The time is now!

RAF,
I think what Lib86 is suggesting is that you take the contents of his statements and just apply a logical, linear and intelligent thought to them. The conclusions and methodology to reach them, thought surely differing in high detail, are not that difficult ot grasp. Asking him to 'explain' them, particularly in these forums, is wholly unrealistic. You know what he means and you are fully capable of recognizing his course. It seems to me that rather than do that you simply choose to offer up a 'prove it' retort and just ignore all the obvious intentions and meanings of this statements. Sure, his positions may be weak, or even wrong. I am not saying they are or aren't but your replies are just filled with 'prove it' and 'explain it' one liners. adn that us a cheap way to nullify ones points. 2 bits. Zaz |

Sure, we need to get back to the Constitution. The measures that are being taken now are what happens when you allow the liberals to force their "don't offend anyone" agenda on the masses. The 1st Amendment gives me the right to free speech. So me which amendment gives you the right to not be offended. I also say deport all these Arabs on student visas. If they aren't citizens get them out of America. Let them bomb their own countries up.

A few things:
First, who would you rather have as president? I mean, we had 2 viable choices in 2000, Gore or Bush. And you can't possibly believe that Gore would be more light-handed in terms of expanding federal power - 'big central govt' is the central tenet of modern liberalisim. Bush has been very anti-internationalist, unilateral, and pro-US-sovereignty since he took office. He avoids international treaties whenever possible (and royally (no pun intended) pisses off the Euros by doing so), won't support the ICC (12 months to come home might as well be immunity, as no other government is going to get away with abducting US citizens (much less US military personell) from within our borders), and has even backed out of some more useless treaties (ABM). And as for national IDs and law enforcement, we ALLREADY have 2 de-facto national ID systems: Inter-state drive-license and background check systems (ex NICS), and Social Security cards. We also have a plethora of interlockibng and overlaping federal LE agencies (BATF, FBI, Secret Service, Customs, INS, US Attorney/US Marshals, Even the EPA and Agriculture have their own (armed) law-enforcement bodies). Having a single national police agency makes sense (Dept of HS, however, as envisioned, is just another level of 'crat factor. That won't work), since you can fire a whole lot of pencil pushers and eliminate duplication of effort. You'll also can the inter-agency pissing matches that can make a difference between catching crooks (or terrorists) and catching air. Consolidate. Fire all the 'effort duplicating' administrators. Make sure their mandate is narrrow-as-possible. And use the money saved to add further enforcement, not more 'crats. The only thing that really *IS* scary, is what Slick Hilly might do with this new federal power if she gets in. And the simplest way to hand the Dems the white house is to pull support from Bush over these issues. GWB is better than Al, or Hillary, or whoever... So faced with the fact that either a Dem or Rep will be president (Sorry, but we just don't have any viable 3rd parties), take the best of the two. |
