......continued .....This has apparently become the new liberal tactic to deal with the
intense frustration being expressed around the country by citizens:
Downplay. Belittle. Disparage. Name-call. The liberals are frightened by
the anger and frustration unleashed in Flyover Country.
I interviewed a lot of people at the tea party and asked why they came.
Standard answers included:
a.. "I'm sick and tired of working my tail off, then having my money given
away to a bunch of crooks. If you think taxation without representation was
bad, well look at it with representation."
b.. "I'm mad as hell. I don't like this administration. They're not
reading bills, they're lying -- but hey, it's OK because they 'misspoke.'"
c.. "I'm here to show support for the Constitution the way it was written,
and move away from the socialist direction this nation is going. It's not
even socialism; it's fascism when the government takes over private
enterprise and gives the appearance of a free market while they have the
ability to control that market. Those are exactly the tactics taken in Nazi
Germany in 1928."
d.. "I'm here because my husband grew up in a country that headed toward
socialism [Germany]. I want to make sure we stay a republic and stay a free
country."
e.. "I'm here to protest spending money we don't have to purchase things
we don't want."
f.. "I'm here because I'm paying for so much in taxes. I would like
somebody to listen to us. I'm originally from Spain. I'm an American
citizen now, but I know what socialism does to a country because Spain is a
socialist country, and it's somewhere I wouldn't want America to go -- where
people get penalized for success."
g.. "I'm tired of being lied to and being overtaxed, of promises made and
not kept. I'm worried that capitalism is being taken away from us, and I
don't want to live in a socialist society."
Remember, these are people who have never protested before. They've
been too busy working and providing for their families to have the time or
interest to protest. Until now. It remains to be seen whether tea party
attendees -- having done their "duty" -- will go home and forget everything
they saw and heard and felt. Will they continue to agitate, or will they
grow apathetic? Will they be vigilant, or will they come home after work
and slump down in front of the TV?
The government is watching us. Closely. And this is exactly, precisely
what the government hopes we'll do -- that we'll forget all about these cute
little tea parties and let them get on with the business of ruining our
country.
It's been said that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. We let
our vigilance slip and look where it's gotten us.
So what do we do? We continue to protest. We monitor. We stay
vigilant. We contact our representatives (consistently and frequently, some
might say annoyingly) and let them know we're watching them. Senators and
representatives get daily updates on how many people contact their offices
and where those people stand on the issues. Let's let them know where we
stand.
In the words of one of our tea party speakers, the weight of a million
individual fingers can add up to tremendous pressure. Let's add some more
weight.

TEA FOR 2 . . MILLION?
By Patrice Lewis for WorldNet Daily Posted: April 18, 2009
Well, they tried. The mainstream media honestly tried to ignore the
April 15 tea parties around the country. When the sheer quantity became
irrefutable, the media joined government spokesmen in dismissing rallyers as
pathetic cigarette smokers upset because, geez, just a little extra taxes on
ciggies, what's yer problem?
Talk about scared.
I went to a tea party on April 15 in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. At least a
thousand people attended.
Coeur d'Alene, let it be known, is a charming small city of 35,000 and
is not particularly conservative. Many people were with us in spirit but
couldn't attend because they were working (a trucker passing by honked
enthusiastically and raised a cheer from the crowd). If a town the size of
Coeur d'Alene can cough up at least a thousand frustrated, disgruntled
protesters, how big were the tea parties in larger cities?
Remember, there were at least a thousand tea parties being held. I'm
guessing over a million people gathered around the country. Picking some
random cities, Houston had about 10,000 attendees, Kansas City had at least
4,000, Concord, N.H., had 500, Cincinnati had around 4,500, Sacramento had
at least 10,000, Indianapolis had more than 12,000, Tulsa had 7,000, Olympia
had 5,000. Even terminally liberal Seattle mustered 1,200.
Tired of keeping quiet about increasing government control? Express
yourself with the magnetic message: "No Hope in Socialism".
But the best the Associated Press could admit to is "tens of thousands"
attended across the whole country. Tens of thousands. That's it. C'mon,
AP. Nashville alone had around 10,000 people. Atlanta had about 20,000.
See how the media is downplaying the sheer number as vehemently as possible?
Of course, the reason the media claim to be unaware of how many people
attended is because they weren't there. Sure, some local TV stations had
their rigs, but the big guys? No way. I guess they think if they don't
cover tea parties, it means they don't exist or something.
That seems to be the government's best defense right now. Marginalize.
Trivialize. Aww, isn't it cute that the peasants are having tea. Now that
the big day is over, everyone should toddle home like good little sheeple
and be quiet.
You see, the media, and by extension the government, is in full panic
mode.
That's why they're making absurd remarks. They're calling tea parties
"despicable and shameful." They claim tea parties are sponsored by
corporations rather than being grass-roots efforts. They claim we're just
disgruntled because we lost the election. My husband even heard a CNN
reporter on the radio who said (I kid you not), "A surprising number of
children were being forced to hold propaganda." Oh great, now parents are
abusing their children by involving them in politics. And the media claim
they aren't biased?.......

While states like Texas are moving to assert SOVEREIGNTY to disconnect from FED tentacles.
EVERY STATE IN OUR UNION should CLEAN their HOUSE of ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS! Beginning umm hmmm TODAY.

Citizens should be REPORTING AND EXITING ILLEGALS as a PRIORITY. OPERATION: YOU"RE NOT A CITIZEN - We're KICKING YOU OUT TODAY and NO I do not have to learn how to say that in spanish!
LETS ESCORT YOU OUT BY THE BUS LOAD. Goal by December 31. 2009: All illegals are GONE DADDY GONE

I had read some things awhile back of people who also wanted to do this......
with regard to CC debt.
Re:
A US LEGAL citizen who defaults on their CC bill: (your credit report will actually say WRITE OFF!
the bank WRITES IT OFF, THEN sells it on the market for PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR to Law firms and collection agencies (no longer the holder of the debt), who then CLAIM TO BE REPRESENTING THE PLAINTIFF (the bank), who no longer OWNS THE DEBT BECAUSE they have taken the TAX WRITE OFF. The collection firms then add legal fees to the ORIGINAL DEBT BALANCE and the COURT never asks them to PROVE WHO OWNS THE DEBT and forces compliance on the ORIGINAL DEBT AMOUNT plus LEGAL fees!~
Kick them all OUT!

I am still having considerable difficulty with ILLEGAL ALIENS bearing CHILDREN IN THE US and the CHILDREN BEING CONSIDERED US CITIZENS!!!! As well as ILLEGAL ALIENS being given MORTGAGES!.........vent vent vent vent vent......suggestions on where I can put my vent to purposeful use....send links....I have already vented to politixz...

Veterans a Focus of FBI Extremist Probe

By CAM SIMPSON and GARY FIELDS

WASHINGTON -- The Federal Bureau of Investigation earlier this year launched a nationwide operation targeting white supremacists and "militia/sovereign-citizen extremist groups," including a focus on veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan, according to memos sent from bureau headquarters to field offices.

The initiative, dubbed Operation Vigilant Eagle, was outlined in February, two months before a memo giving a similar warning was issued on April 7 by the Department of Homeland Security.

Disclosure of the DHS memo this week has sparked controversy among some conservatives and veterans groups. Appearing on television talk shows Thursday, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano defended the assessment, but apologized to veterans who saw it as an accusation.

"This is an assessment of things just to be wary of, not to infringe on constitutional rights, certainly not to malign our veterans," she said on NBC's Today Show.

The documents outlining Operation Vigilant Eagle cite a surge in activity by such groups. The memos say the FBI's focus on veterans began as far back as December, during the final weeks of the Bush administration, when the bureau's domestic counterterrorism division formed a special joint working group with the Defense Department.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, pictured this month in Mexico, defended the assessment Thursday but apologized to veterans.

A Feb. 23 draft memo from FBI domestic counterterrorism leaders, obtained by The Wall Street Journal, cited an "increase in recruitment, threatening communications and weapons procurement by white supremacy extremist and militia/sovereign-citizen extremist groups."

The FBI said in the memo that its conclusion about a surge in such activities was based on confidential sources, undercover operations, reporting from other law-enforcement agencies and publicly available information. The memo said the main goal of the multipronged operation was to get a better handle on "the scope of this emerging threat." The operation also seeks to identify gaps in intelligence efforts surrounding these groups and their leaders.

The aim of the FBI's effort with the Defense Department, which was rolled into the Vigilant Eagle program, is to "share information regarding Iraqi and Afghanistan war veterans whose involvement in white supremacy and/or militia sovereign citizen extremist groups poses a domestic terrorism threat," according to the Feb. 23 FBI memo.

Michael Ward, FBI deputy assistant director for counterterrorism, said in an interview Thursday that the portion of the operation focusing on the military related only to veterans who draw the attention of Defense Department officials for joining white-supremacist or other extremist groups.

"We're not doing an investigation into the military, we're not looking at former military members," he said. "It would have to be something they were concerned about, or someone they're concerned is involved" with extremist groups.

Mr. Ward said that the FBI's general counsel reviewed the operation before it began, "to make sure any tripwires we set do not violate any civil liberties."

Some Republican lawmakers, talk-show hosts and veterans groups complained this week after the internal DHS assessment cited the potential for the same extremists groups to target returning combat veterans for recruitment. The Democratic chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, also echoed the concerns.

The separate DHS assessment, leaked this week after being sent to law-enforcement agencies, said the "willingness of a small percentage of military personnel to join extremist groups during the 1990s because they were disgruntled, disillusioned or suffering from the psychological effects of war is being replicated today." Veterans could draw special attention, the report said, because of their advanced training.

Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, the House Republican leader, said Wednesday he was offended that veterans were characterized as potential domestic terrorists.

Amy Kudwa, a DHS spokeswoman, said Thursday the report was issued before an objection about one part of the document raised by the agency's civil-rights division was resolved. She called it a "breakdown of an internal process" that would be fixed.

The FBI documents show the bureau was working with investigators inside the nation's uniformed services "in an effort to identify those current or former soldiers who pose a domestic terrorism threat." The other agencies working with the FBI are the U.S. Army Criminal Investigative Division, the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.

Documents detailing the operation are unclassified, but were meant for internal distribution only.
