R.I.P. Habeus Corpus 1215-2006

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006
“Military Commissions Act”, waiting for the president to sign away our first nine of 10 “Bill of Rights”. See the link for more info.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_Commissions_Act_of_2006 

The bill has been denounced by critics who assert that its wording authorizes the permanent detention and torture (as defined by the Geneva Conventions) of anyone - including American citizens - based solely on the decision of the President.[10] One has described it as “the legalization of the José Padilla treatment” - referring to the American citizen who was declared an unlawful enemy combatant and then imprisoned for three years before finally being charged with a lesser crime than was originally alleged.[11] A legal brief filed on Padilla’s behalf alleges that during this time he was subjected to sensory deprivation, sleep deprivation, and enforced stress positions.[12]

An editorial in The New York Times described the Act as “a tyrannical law that will be ranked with the low points in American democracy, our generation’s version of the Alien and Sedition Acts.”[13] Amnesty International said that the Act “contravenes human rights principles.”[14]

Another unconstitutional act! The constitution declares ALL PEOPLE have God given rights and not just US citizens. If even a US citizen is declared an “enemy combatant” you lose the Bill of Rights. From the excerpt above, taken from the above link, you see that ONLY the president need declare your status AND with the Patriot Act we ARE NOW VERY close to a Fascist State.
Did you know that the Patriot Act as caught only a couple of terrorists but is used to prosecute US citizens for “normal” crimes. It was said this would never happen.
As more states choose “electronic” voting, the outcome can never be known for sure. But does it matter? The choices to vote for are still controlled by “the powers that be” that have pushed for a “One World Government” for over 100 years.
We the people still have significant power and need to use it FAST. Every elected official took an oath to uphold the constitution and these are clear violations of that sacred oath.
So now, 20 years later, the people that used to be referred to as “the nuts” and what crazy thing have they did lately (as in Wolfowitz, President of the World Bank) are in power. Bush hired about 20 of these Fascist, Leo Straussians, do what it takes to secure power nuts. Strauss’s teaching that “perpetual deception of the citizens by those in power is critical because they need to be led, and they need strong rulers to tell them what’s good for them.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Strauss
In 2004 Adam Curtis produced a three-part documentary for the BBC on the threat from organized terrorism called the Power of Nightmares. This television documentary claimed that Strauss’ teachings, among others, influenced neo-conservative and thus, United States foreign policy, especially following the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Did you know that in the year 2000, a project set up by the men who now surround George W Bush said what America needed was “a new Pearl Harbor.” Its published aims have, alarmingly, come true. Some of the most brilliant Mechanical Engineers and other specialists have said the towers CANNOT collapse at near terminal velocity without a planned implosion.

and other “scientific” web sites concur.
We are being bombarded by a propaganda machine that the father of propaganda, Edward Bernays, never imagined with our new technologies. Look what Goebbells did with Germany and the Nazi Party. Germany, known for well educated and hard working people fell victim.
Look at http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article4433.htm

Propaganda: Did Goebbells Write The Bush Administrations speeches?
From an address to a joint session of the US Congress: President George W. Bush.
“Americans are asking “Why do they hate us?'’  They hate what they see right here in this chamber: a democratically elected government. Their leaders are self-appointed. They hate our freedoms: our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other. ”  George W. Bush,  20 September, 2001

From Goebbels’ New Year address to Germany
They hate our people because it is decent, brave, industrious, hardworking and intelligent. They hate our views, our social policies, and our accomplishments. They hate us as a Reich and as a community. They have forced us into a struggle for life and death. We will defend ourselves accordingly. All is clear between us and our enemies. Goebbels 31 December 1939

IRS CANNOT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT a Federal Court order!

Thursday, October 12th, 2006

Notice: I am not giving anyone advice and not intentionally causing civil disobedience or unrest. I am simply relaying items I have come to know under my 1st Amendment rights to freedom of speech. I do not want the Patriot Act to take me away without any reason for an indefinite period of time.
 

THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT a Federal Court order!

 

I didn’t hear about (after diatribe number 6,324, you’ll see at the end) this in the mainstream media. People still get letters saying the IRS will seize your assets unless you do or pay ‘X’ BUT THEY CAN’T ENFORCE!

 

I haven’t heard that it went to any higher court either. It seems only proper they have to sue and then get a judgment like everyone else.

 

Also, the Supreme Court as ruled 3 times that the 16th Amendment does not grant the Federal Government ANY new powers of taxation. Since the income tax law is based on powers given by the 16th Amendment, any unapportioned tax (like the income tax) is unconstitutional.

 

This does not mean that people who know this have not been convicted in much lower courts such as a recent Judge was quoted as saying “I will not have the Supreme Court in my court” and would not let the jury here the defendants’ constitutional arguments. They were found guilty, of course, a few months ago. Butt they are appealing up the ladder.

 

But more and more people are ignoring citizen’s income taxes and winning in court.

 

Oh! But you might say “now my taxes are going up because someone yahoo is not paying their fair share to keep the Government operating” but did you know that the income tax is to finance the Feral Reserve System. Yes, our tax dollars are mainly to pay the PRIVITE Corporation, The Federal Reserve System, the interest to borrow our OWN MONEY that our Treasury Department prints. This does not include the digital money “printed” at their corporation (most of the US wealth) we pay interest on.

 

Also, corporations still have to pay income tax.

 

The national debt went from 1 trillion when Bush II started to now over 8 trillion. No wonder the Fed can afford such a low Prime Rate! Bankruptcy law as been changed to protect banks who give credit cards to anyone at usury rates.

 

Both of these acts passed on Christmas Eve when most of the 2 Houses where at home in 1913! If we stop the Federal Reserve System, no income taxes are needed. The States do need some money BUT base their income on the Federal system.

 

Illinois and I believe all States use the standard “If you owe Federal Income Tax” so they will need funding another of MANY constitutional ways.

Dramatic Development:
U.S. Court of Appeals Rules IRS
Cannot Apply Force Against A Tax Payer
Without A Court Order
Tax Payers Free To Ignore An IRS Summons
 
Queensbury, NY – On January 25, 2005, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that taxpayers cannot be compelled by the IRS to turn over personal and private property to the IRS, absent a federal court order.

Quoting from the decision (Schulz v. IRS, Case No. 04-0196-cv),
“…absent an effort to seek enforcement through a federal court, IRS summonses apply no force to taxpayers, and no consequence whatever can befall a taxpayer who refuses, ignores, or otherwise does not comply with an IRS summons until that summons is backed by a federal court order…[a taxpayer] cannot be held in contempt, arrested, detained, or otherwise punished for refusing to comply with the original IRS summons, no matter the taxpayer’s reasons, or lack of reasons for so refusing.”
Without declaring those provisions of the Code unconstitutional on their face, the court, in effect, nullified key enforcement provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, stripping the IRS of much of its power to compel compliance with its administrative demands for personal and private property. The court characterized IRS summonses issued under Section 7602 as mere “requests.”

The court went on to say that the federal courts are there to protect taxpayers from an “overreaching” IRS, and that the IRS must go through the federal courts before force can be applied on anyone by the IRS to turn over personal and private property to the IRS.

A search for personal data on ZabaSearch.com — one of the most comprehensive personal-data search engines on the net — tends to elicit one of two reactions from first-timers: terror or curiosity. Which reaction often depends on whether you are searching for someone else’s data, or your own.

ZabaSearch queries return a wealth of info sometimes dating back more than 10 years: residential addresses, phone numbers both listed and unlisted, birth year, even satellite photos of people’s homes. “
