“FOR THE PEOPLE, FROM THE PEOPLE.”
In the recent days that have passed I have come to further conclusion that our elected officials have sold this country out. In one fatal sweep the Democratic led congress pushed their 60 votes through to further the debate on ‘Universal Healthcare,’ or as realists refer to as socialized health care, rationed care.
Even though that a vast majority of congressmen/ women are attorneys by trade they cannot seem to accept the one troubling issue with social medicine… It violates that one minor, insignificant piece of paper that somehow has kept this nation in check up until the last thirty years; Our Constitution. This assault on our constitution continues as 51% of Americans disagree with the current bill. It continues as the CBO office has stated that the bills will be more expensive than our current system. The same office has also reported that each working American’s federal taxes will increase to 45%.
Simply and uniformly put; redistribution of wealth. Barry was quoted from a phone interview in the last 1990’s that he feelt that the 1960’s civil rights movement did not do enough for ‘social justice.’ His definition was explained further as wealth redistribution. It is evident that he and his cronies have infiltrated our government and that his agenda is far more radical than even some on the left care to admit.
Healthcare rationing has already begun. Last week the health department announced that women do not need to have yearly monograms nor do they need to start having them until they are in their mid 40’s and the young girls do not need testing for cervical cancer until their mid twenties.
This plan is not voluntary in any shape or form. We were also told that over 24 million Americans will not be covered under this plan, unless you are illegal (undocumented persons for the PC sensitive). The House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi’s has implemented a plan that will include criminal charges for those who refuse to pay fines or participate in the socialized, unconstitutional, debauchery of a plan.
My pure unbridled anger with this mediocre, sideshow of an administration is the recent announcement of the decision to bring the self admitted terrorists to trial as civilians in New York.
I am not a lawyer but I have seen enough episodes of Law and Order to know that this is merely a show trial. After all, both Attorney General Eric Holder and The Commander in Chief, Barry Obama are Ivy League attorneys at law, one of which is a PROFESSOR of the constitution. I can only conclude two things at this point.
1. These two graduates are completely incompetent and prove that affirmative action indeed does not always work for college acceptance as the aforementioned obviously did not retain the basic lessons of first year law school. OR…
2. Eric holder and Barry are working against us as sympathizers of radical Islam.
While people have time to pick their lower jaws off the keyboard, I submit these common facts and ideas that have the simplicity of a ‘Where’s Waldo game.’ Both The most powerful man in this country and the Attorney General stated on national television that the 911 terrorist would be convicted and given the death penalty.
Hmm, I am envisioning a young ACLU attorney submitting motions on the first day of the trial for a dismissal of all charges, on the grounds that there is no way that the defendants will ever get a fair trial since the entire nation as a jury pool is now tainted by Barry and Holder’s announcement of a conviction and a death sentence. If that does not fly, like it wouldn’t, here are two of the many other grounds.
1. The defendants where never advised of their rights (not that they had any as they are not citizens).
2. All evidence is inadmissible due to the fruit’s of the poison tree, they were tortured.
It is even clearer that this is a direct assault on our intelligence agencies. Prosecuting attorneys will have to bring these agencies on trail have them reveal their tactics, methods and means show of how they gather vital, key information that has saved and is saving thousands of American lives. These thugs are not on trial, or agencies are as well as the past administration.
If you are not fuming at this point one more piece of information just came onto my radar and was worth mentioning, AG Eric Holders Law firm, Covington & Burling represented 18 GITMO Detainees to give them free legal assistance.
The firm represents 17 Yemeni nationals and one Pakistani citizen held at Guantánamo Bay. The Supreme Court will soon review the D.C. Circuit’s ruling that ordered the dismissal of a number of habeas petitions filed by Guantánamo detainees; some of our clients are petitioners in the Supreme Court case. We expect to play a substantial role in the briefing. We also plan to petition the Supreme Court to hear our Pakistani client’s appeal from the D.C. Circuit’s order dismissing his case. Further, we are pursuing relief in the D.C. Circuit under the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 for all of our clients. On a separate front, we filed amicus briefs and coordinated the amicus effort in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld in which the Supreme Court in the summer of 2006 invalidated President Bush’s military commissions and in which we have obtained favorable rulings that our clients have rights under the Fifth Amendment and the Geneva Conventions.
Covington & Burling’s Gitmo bar roster has included some of the most radical detainee advocates; see David Remes, who peeled down to his underwear at a press conference in Yemen to draw attention to his clients’ plight and Marc Falkoff, who published a book of detainee poetry and who, in the book’s intro, compared their heroic struggle to the Jews held in concentration camps and Japanese Americans held in internment camps during WWII. [One of Falkoff's "gentle, thoughtful" young poets--a Kuwaiti "cleared for release" and repatriated in 2005--blew himself up in a truck bomb in Mosul last March, killing 13 Iraqi army soldiers and wounding 42 others.]
The fact that Mr. Holder, while Deputy Attorney General, pushed for the release of 16 violent FALN terrorists against the advice of the FBI, the US Attorneys who prosecuted them and the NYPD officers who were maimed by them, suggests that he was perfectly willing to put politics before the national security interests of the country. He is not suited for the job of attorney general, which is central to the issues surrounding the disposition of war on terror detainees. – Michele Malkin
I do not drink the Kool-Aid, my heart and head are clear and I see the truth… Our soldier’s swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States. Our constitution is under attack and being systematically dismantled at an alarming rate. This administration and the left wing liberals read the constitution as how they 'THINK,' it should read as opposed to how it reads. If there was not a time for is to act, there will never be one.
