Last week while the horrific fires were burning up Southern California and every major news network, including cable were providing non-stop coverage, a very dangerous bill to liberty and freedom was passed by 404 members of the U.S. House of Representatives. Called the 'Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007', this bill is perfectly summed up here:

"First let's take a look at the definitions of violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism as defined in Section 899A of the bill. The definition of violent radicalization uses vague language to define this term of promoting any belief system that the government considers to be an extremist agenda. Since the bill doesn't specifically define what an extremist belief system is, it is entirely up to the interpretation of the government. Considering how much the government has done to destroy the Constitution they could even define Ron Paul supporters as promoting an extremist belief system. Literally, the government according to this definition can define whatever they want as an extremist belief system. Essentially they have defined violent radicalization as thought crime."

Why was this bill passed now? Besides yours truly, thousands of economists and constitutional activists have been warning for decades what will happen if treaties like NAFTA were shoved down our throats destroying our most important, productive job sectors along with the continued fleecing of the people's purse. Let's look at some current data to bring things into perspective and it's not pretty:

Foreclosures, default notices soar locally and across the state. October 26, 2007: "Home loan defaults and foreclosures spiked again sharply in July, August and September throughout California and the capital region, setting records and adding more stress to an already-slumping housing market." Billions in housing wealth at risk as foreclosures soar. October 26, 2007: "More than $23.6 billion in California housing wealth will evaporate if real estate prices continue to decline and foreclosures on subprime home loans soar, according to a new congressional report that indicates the fallout from the national mortgage crisis is worsening." Cash-strapped Americans raiding their 401(k)s. October 14, 2007: "Despite potential tax and investment problems, more investors have been borrowing from their 401(k) plans or taking hardship withdrawals in recent months, some retirement plan providers say. Many in the field expect more borrowing in 2008, as consumers struggle with tighter credit and potentially higher mortgage payments."

2 Million Americans Face Losing Their Home. October 26, 2007: "An influential congressional committee warned yesterday that 2 million US families face losing their homes in a "tidal wave" of repossessions with an estimated cost of $71bn." US loan default problems widen. October 21 2007: " Poor quarterly results from banks across the US over the past two weeks suggest credit problems once confined to high-risk mortgage borrowers are spreading across the consumer landscape, posing new risks to the economy and weighing heavily on the markets. US banks have raised reserves for loan losses by at least $6bn over the second quarter and by even larger amounts from last year, indicating financial executives believe consumers will be increasingly unable to make payments on a variety of loans. " Goodbye dollar, hello inflation. October 24, 2007: "In summary, expect continued deterioration in the dollar's purchasing power and increases in inflation over the longer term. Inflation will not be confined to the US; it has appeared and will continue to appear in countries across the globe. Every government will try their damnedest to paper over their monetary inflation with ridiculous explanations and reconfigured price indexes which purport to show "low inflation". Still, worldwide inflation is here and it is only a question of which fiat currency will depreciate at the fastest rate against relatively hard currencies and gold."

When people have no money to spend except for food and shelter, it kills the local economy. Retailers are already anticipating a dismal Christmas season. Dr. Edwin Vieira has warned for decades this banking crisis was coming. He pointed out in a column, March 17, 2005, that a monetary and banking crisis was on its way. In his March 21, 2005, column, Edwin said: "Pointing out these stories to a New Hampshire State Legislator, I explained the logical connection among them: first, that this country is on the verge of an inevitable financial melt-down; second, that politicians are intent on making things even worse; and third, that when the Ponzi pyramid collapses, the same politicians whose irresponsibility caused the situation will impose draconian restrictions on common Americans by means of police forces amply provided with weapons and heavy equipment suitable for house-to-house fighting in Stalingrad."

Many times I have reminded Americans that back in 1984, Lt. Col. Oliver North, directly helped draft a plan in 1984 at the direction of Ronald Reagan to impose martial law in the United States in the event of an emergency. This secret plan would suspend the U.S. Constitution and turn over control of the government to the little known agency at that time: FEMA. This plan would appoint military commanders to run state and local governments - remember Katrina? Implementation of this plan would have been triggered by violent and wide spread internal dissent, disagreement with government policy or national opposition to any U.S. military invasion abroad. Essentially, it amounted to a complete and total suspension of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Many times I have reminded Americans about a 1997 essay in the Sacramento Bee titled: Our Civilian-Military Face off, which also carried a sub headline: Bill of Rights No Obstacle for the [Marine] Corps. This piece exposed the mindset way back then that at some point due to: "...the rising potential for civil disobedience within the inner cities it is 'inevitable' the U.S. military will be employed more often within American borders." In my March 10, 2005 column, I said that at some point, it was a given that posse comitatus is likely to be thrown out the window. WACO was the test case in violation of posse comitatus which resulted in our military burning and gassing to death 74 Americans, 17 of them children. For the most part, America was silent and sickeningly, large numbers felt the outcome was "necessary." Well, it came to pass and NWVs columnist, Greg Evensen, former Kansas State Trooper, summed it up quit succinctly:

"In addition to this “group think” concerning the police “mission” of enforcing the law—regardless of whether or not the law is righteous or constitutional---is the recent historic change in federal law. I am referring to Public Law 109-364, or the “John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007” (HR5122) (2), was signed by President Bush on October 17, 2006...It allows the President to declare a “public emergency” and station troops anywhere in America. Further, Section 1076 of this Act, entitled “Use of the Armed Forces in Major Public Emergencies and Section 333 Major Public Emergencies--interference with State and Federal Law, says that the President may use these forces when HE determines that domestic violence has occurred to such an extent that a State is incapable of (read that “refuse or fail” in) maintaining public order, “in order to suppress, in any State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination thereof or conspiracy to commit these acts against the United States. This “repeal” of the Posse Comitatus Act (PCA) is a deadly blow on this historic prevention of US army units intervening in local disputes. The 1878 Act, protected local jurisdictions and even states from the willful intervention of corrupted or dictatorial executive branch orders being forced upon the locals by Army units in a law enforcement capacity."

Back in 1999, the International Association of Undercover Officers held a conference and put out a manual titled 'Homegrown Extremists.' This manual will shock you, i.e,. the Fully Informed Jury Association which teaches people about their serious responsibilities as a juror is blasted as an extremist organization. This is the kind of propaganda that was being jammed down the throats of law enforcement almost a decade ago. Most certainly there are dangerous groups in this country, but through toxic organizations like the Southern "Poverty" Law Center, this type of propaganda is now standard fare for law enforcement. Constitutionalists are deliberately lumped in with the KKK and wacky cults. Pg 52 begins "Know your enemy" and they are white, educated Christians. The full manual is scanned here.

The timing of the passage of H.R. 1955 was no accident; see roll call of votes here. The fact that 404 members of the U.S. House of Representatives voted for it tells me this collective body of dangerous individuals that have taken this country, with the blessing of every past president since Roosevelt, to the brink of financial ruin are now very afraid of what's going to happen when the peasants (that's us) find themselves left with nothing. Additionally, the push for a new, unbiased investigation into 911 is turning into an unmanageable situation for the shadow government.

Tens of millions of Americans do NOT want Bush to unconstitutionally invade and bomb Iran, a non threatening country and should the peasants, commonly referred to as the "working man", refuse to support this insanity, a new draconian law will be in place to crush we the people. Many now realize it's too late to stop exactly what Lou Dobbs so courageously railed about on his show, October 26, 2007:

"And the leadership, of course, emanating from Washington is brilliant dealing with the issue of $92-a-barrel crude oil, a Middle East policy that is a joke, an energy policy for this country that is nonexistent. This administration and the previous absolutely derelict...And I love, I love these jackasses in this administration, particularly in their -- the treasury secretary, Henry Paulson, the commerce secretary, this president, all of them talk coming together to create a super-fund for the money center banks, investment banks in this country to put together maybe about $100 billion fund, so that they won't have to suffer losses as a result of their bad credit market investments and risk taken in their portfolios, particularly in subprime mortgage. But we have got millions of people facing foreclosures, the resets that you're talking about on those mortgages, ARMs that were designed for the convenience of the industry. And this administration and this Congress is not moving to deal with a way to relieve that debt and that incredible pressure that it's going to put on middle- class families."

Empty bellies make for angry mobs. How much do you have in your savings account to keep emptying the ocean with a teaspoon? Are you one of the above borrowing from your 401(k)? What will be left at "retirement" time to see to your needs in your golden years? Crude closed at $92/per barrel last Friday; when Bush took office it was $18/barrel. This winter, our fellow Americans in states like Pennsylvania, Ohio and the New England States will have to face staying warm vs eating and/or dropping their health care premiums because there's no money left in the till to pay another increase in heating fuel oil. While Marxists like Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi eat off gold plated china, Bush will continue to blow $10 BILLION dollars a month on his insane wars and since there's no money in the treasury, that $10 BILLION will have to be borrowed and squeezed from we the people who have nothing left to give. And, these buzzards in Congress just keep writing hot checks:

Here piggie, piggie! Billions in fed trough. "Millions earmarked for La Raza radicals: $3.74 million for research into the Formosan Subterranean Termite, requested by Reps. Rodney Alexander and Richard Baker of Louisiana; $1.7 million for the Centers for Disease Control to fund a Hollywood liaison to advise doctor dramas." While you're trying to figure out how to provide health care insurance for your family, get them needed dental work, buy shoes and little dresses, this is what these damnable crooks in Congress are blowing money on when the treasury is empty.

The worst is now staring all of us in the face and I respectfully recommend every American do several things as soon as you can:

(1) Diversify a good portion of your assets into gold. I'm not a gold dealer, but my friends at El Dorado Gold know this issue inside and out and they will tell you that right now that stock market is on the same path as 1929. October 18, 2007: Dow drops over 366 on anniversary of Black Friday. This was a warning people had better take seriously. Call Eric in the Florida office at 623.643.8785 or, if you prefer closer to the West Coast, call Harvey at 602.228.8203. Congress is staring at double-digit TRILLIONS needed next year when that first wave of baby boomers retire. There's no money in the treasury and all the BS pouring out of Barack Hussein Obama or Hillary's mouth, or pie in the sky promises from Rudy Julie Annie, Huckabee or Romney isn't going to stop what is already underway.

(2) Get your affairs in order which means paperwork like wills, trusts, etc. DON'T put off this important task for a baseball game, round of golf or tv program.

(3) Disaster can happen at any time, so everyone should make sure they have at least a few weeks of food supplies, along with vitamins and medical necessities stored. If there's any disruption with our road warriors (truckers) being able to get to your area, your family will starve and there won't be any running down to China (Wal) Mart for a prescription refill that could mean life or death.

(4) Of paramount importance: Exercise your Second Amendment right to own and bear arms for the protection of you and yours. The federal government is knowingly protecting Muslim terrorist cells in this country. Patrick Briley and others have been attempting to get members of the Oklahoma State Legislature to demand answers from the feds as to why they aren't rounding up these terrorists in that state and I'm telling you flat out: we're all at risk. I've known Patrick for almost ten years and his research is 100% solid; see here.

Please get on the phone to your House member this week and tell them: Bush simply cannot invade or bomb Iran like some banana republic dictator. A formal declaration of war is REQUIRED under the U.S. Constitution by Congress and we the people do NOT want any military aggression against a non threatening country like Iran. Stop this lunacy or find another job next November. Demand they vote yes NOW on the bills below because they are critical in beginning the rebuilding process:

H.R. 2755: Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act. To abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal reserve banks, to repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and for other purposes.

H. Con. Res. 40: The United States should not engage in the construction of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Superhighway System or enter into a North American Union with Mexico and Canada.

H.R. 3835: The American Freedom Agenda Act of 2007 which will restore habeas corpus by repealing the Military Commissions Act of 2006.

H. Con. Res. 22: The President should provide notice of withdrawal of the United States from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

H.R.4855: Get rid of the unnecessary withholding taxing scheme. This bill was introduced by Congressman Ron Paul, July 27, 2000 and we the people demand a new bill get introduced and passed as well as abolish the IRS.
