The Republicans and Democrats play for the same team. It is all window dressing to keep us divided cheering for our ‘Red’ team or our ‘Blue’ team when in reality, they are of the same cloth. There is no change. It is the same basic message only it is now delivered with a new eloquence. If we are to put our wedge issues aside and listen to our conscience to what is just, what is right and if we are to judge a tree by the fruit it bears we can clearly see that our government is rotting on the branch. The players of each team will never enact any accountability on each other. The people of this country must demand it. Subscribe to our videos so that you are notified when ever we make a new video!

War Racket, Please pass it on: tinyurl.com tinyurl.com tinyurl.com tinyurl.com representativepress.blogspot.com (Also see addition quote I added below) “Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended; its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied; and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force, of the people. The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare. Those truths are well established. They are read in every page which records the progression from a less arbitrary to a more arbitrary government, or the transition from a popular government to an aristocracy or a monarchy.” –James Madison, Political Observations, Apr. 20, 1795 representativepress.blogspot.com Also see: “In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive …

December 10, 1993 www.amazon.com Research into the media and violence attempts to determine whether a link between consuming media violence and subsequent aggressive and violent behavior exists. Although some social scientists support this link, methodological and theoretical problems with the existing literature limit interpretation of findings in this area. There is concern among some scholars that media researchers may have exaggerated effects (Ferguson & Kilburn, 2009; Freedman, 2002; Pinker 2002; Savage, 2004). For example, a 2008 editorial in medical journal the Lancet concluded that discussions of media violence effects were exaggerted. There are many explanations of aggressive behavior which do not emphasize the role of the media. For example, some researchers have suggested that the pathway to aggression is largely biological/genetic (see the work of Hare, 1993, Larsson, Andershed, & Lichtenstein, in Press, among others), while others have suggested that aggression can be explained by principles of evolutionary psychology. Complaints about the possible deleterious effects of mass media are nothing new. Plato complained about the effects of plays on youth. Various media/genres, including dime novels, comic books, jazz, rock and roll, role playing/computer games and many others have attracted speculation that consumers of such media may become more aggressive, rebellious or immoral. This has led some scholars to conclude statements made by some researchers merely …

America: Freedom to Fascism (also America: From Freedom to Fascism or (per the title card) America: Freedom to Fascism Volume One) is a 2006 film by Aaron Russo. It was exhibited in theaters in select US cities.[1] This documentary covers many subjects, including: the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the income tax, Federal Reserve System, national ID cards (REAL ID Act), human-implanted RFID tags (Spychips), Diebold electronic voting machines,[2] globalization, Big Brother, taser weapons abuse,[3] and the alleged use of terrorism by government as a means to diminish the citizens’ rights. Some of the premises of the film include: The Federal Reserve System is unconstitutional and has maxed out the national debt and bankrupted the United States government. Federal income taxes were imposed in response to, or as part of, the plan implementing the Federal Reserve System. Federal income taxes are unconstitutional or otherwise legally invalid. The use of the Federal income tax to counter the economic effects of the Federal Reserve System is futile. The film’s claims about the illegality of the income tax in the United States have been critiqued as factually dubious by some reviewers.[4] The film has, however, developed a cult following

The Ron Paul FREEDOM PRINCIPLES * Rights belong to individuals, not groups. * Property should be owned by people, not government. * All voluntary associations should be permissible — economic and social. * The government’s monetary role is to maintain the integrity of the monetary unit, not participate in fraud. * Government exists to protect liberty, not to redistribute wealth or to grant special privileges. * The lives and actions of people are their own responsibility, not the government’s. “Too often we give foreign aid and intervene on behalf of governments that are despised. Then, we become despised. Too often we have supported those who turn on us, like the Kosovars who aid Islamic terrorists, or the Afghan jihadists themselves, and their friend Osama bin Laden. We armed and trained them, and now were paying the price.” www.youtube.com www.campaignforliberty.com

Obama waited until Saturday night to renew the Bill of Rights busting Patriot Act. It was set to expire today. Both the Senate and the House signed off on the extension last week. Instead of tracking terrorists, the bill has been used to track the American people. The Patriot Act allows the government to search and seize Americans papers and effects without probable cause to assist terror investigations. It prevents a right to a speedy and public trial. It discourages freedom of association, freedom of speech, and the right to legal representation. The Patriot Act is being used to bring in a Police State. The act allows the government to abduct citizens and jail them without charge or the ability to confront witnesses against them. It effectively turns America into East Germany or Stalins Russia.

Obama and the Patriot Act: Yes We Can Kill the Bill of Rights Kurt Nimmo www.infowars.com February 28, 2010 Obama waited until Saturday night to renew the Bill of Rights busting Patriot Act. It was set to expire today. Both the Senate and the House signed off on the extension last week. So called privacy protections were dumped when Senate Democrats failed to raise a 60-vote supermajority to pass them. Cast aside were restrictions and greater scrutiny on the governments authority to spy on Americans and seize their records, the Associated Press reports. The Obama administration wanted to extend the measure because of provisions it says are important in tracking suspected terrorists, including roving wiretaps to track multiple communications devices, Reuters reported on Thursday. Disappointingly, the governments dangerously broad authority to conduct roving wiretaps of unspecified or John Doe targets, to secretly wiretap of persons without any connection to terrorists or spies under the so-called lone wolf provision, and to secretly access a wide range of private business records without warrants under PATRIOT Section 215 were all renewed without any new checks and balances to prevent abuse, Kevin Bankston wrote last week after the act sailed through Congress. Instead of tracking terrorists, the bill has been used to track the American people. In 2008, for instance, the Justice Department made 763 requests for sneak-and-peek warrants, but only three of those had to do with …
