"We had better get urgent in our presentation and do it fast, so the public gets that this is NO joke."

I predict the people will finally get it when Agenda 21 and all the other UN -American NEW WORLD ORDER SOCIALISTIC crappola is in full swing. Than the people will start in with comments like, 'why didn't somebody do something' or 'how come we never heard of this stuff before', bla bla bla.

It never ceases to amaze me at how our forefathers with no telephones, radios, internet, televisions, etc. etc. etc. were able to get the messages out to the masses and call forth the rallying cry to liberty.

I guess the difference with them back than and with us now is that they lived under the tyranny and that it was in your face out in the open. Whereas the people of this country (in modern times) have been way too complacent within their gilded cages for so long they could care less whether they actually have liberty or not. They (blindly) take it for granted as they go to the DMV to get their travel permits (aka drivers license). Pay their yearly tribute (aka, property taxes) to the STATE for allowing them to live in what they perceive is their home, and all the other UN -Constitutional licenses and permits they believe is necessary in order to carry out their lives in the land of the once free.

One of the main problems we have is the media and the courts.

"There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history, in America as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print.
I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty- four hours my occupation would be gone.

The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press?

We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes.

We are jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."


John Swinton, former Chief of staff for the New York Times. Called by his peers “The Dean of His profession.” He stated the above when He was asked to give a toast before the New York Press Club in 1953.

"The great object of my fear is the federal judiciary. That body, like gravity, ever acting, with noiseless foot, and unalarming advance, gaining ground step by step, and holding what it gains, is engulfing insidiously the special governments into the jaws of that which feeds them. ... It has long, however, been my opinion, and I have never shrunk from its expression...that the germ of dissolution of our federal government is in the constitution of the federal Judiciary; ...working like gravity by night and by day, gaining a little today and a little tomorrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief, over the field of jurisdiction, until all shall be usurped. ... The judiciary of the United States is the subtle corps of sappers and miners constantly working under ground to undermine the foundations of our confederated fabric. They are construing our Constitution from a coordination of a general and special government to a general and supreme one alone."

--Thomas Jefferson

Herein is where I believe the people will finally wake up. When they can't afford their big screen tv's, new cars, etc. Than they'll wake up but, by than it'll be to late.

"The Constitution will never be restored by appeals to Idealism or Patriotism. It might only be restored IF the people believe it is to their personal economic advantage to do so.”

-- Mark Felton, political philospher and activist
