Climate Change...Are we even asking the right questions?

Climate Extremes - Argentina Colder than Antarctica - Source Gerry Charlotte Phelps

While Europe, Russia and much of the U.S. are suffering through abnormally hot weather, the southern half of the globe is having unusually cold weather.
The coldest winter in 40 years in Argentina is driving up demand for electricity.  The cold is also causing natural gas shortages severe enough to cause Dow Chemical and producers of steel and aluminum to scale back production.  Shipments of liquefied natural gas are expected to double, while electricity use has soared. 
Temperatures in parts of Argentina fell below those of Antarctica on July 15.  In Mendoza, the wine-producing region in western Argentina, temperatures fell below the temperature registered on July 15 in the Argentine-controlled area of the South Pole, according to a national weather institute report.
What is the explanation for extreme heat and extreme cold on the same globe at the same time - global warming or global cooling?  Or neither?  Both??  Or are we even asking the right climate questions?

The climate change controversy has been going on for many years and this much we do know...

The politic elite that seemingly want to run the world have used climate change as a political tool to convince nations that these changes are anthropogenic and thus can do something about it. To facilitate whatever it is they want to do about it they need funding. When enough people are convinced that the politicians in charge seem to know what they are talking about then the people are willing to give up some of their income (think 'taxes') to prevent these weather related ills from becoming pandemic. Now the politic elite are not necessarily elected officials. They include members of NGO's, private and/or public corporations (think 'TIME') and probably the most successful fear monger of all time, the United Nations (UN). You'll find that many climate change studies are funded by the UN. And all UN studies will have results that further their political interests. Yet none of the UN studies have proven that climate change is caused by man. Oh they'll have all their charts and figures arranged to convinced the easily fooled...which consists of many fools (think maybe it might be you). Remember always that whenever any politician who claims he knows why Mother Nature goes from hot to cold and back again is (number one reason) they're looking for more funding (again, think 'taxes'). And something you should never forget; the UN does not produce revenue, they get all their funding from you and a hundred-ninety-one other countries. ~ Norman E. Hooben

Ahmadinejad Challenges Obama

Iran's Ahmadinejad calls for TV debate with Obama

Source Reuters

By Robin Pomeroy
TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called on U.S. President Barack Obama on Monday to face him in a televised one-on-one debate to see who has the best solutions for the world's problems.
The provocative proposal comes as Iran deals with a new wave of international sanctions -- driven by Washington -- aimed at putting pressure on the Islamic Republic over its nuclear program.
"Toward the end of summer we will hopefully be there for the (U.N.) General Assembly and I will be ready for one-on-one talks with Mr. Obama, in front of the media of course," Ahmadinejad told a conference of Iranian expatriates in Tehran.
"We will offer our solutions for world issues to see whose solutions are better."
Ahmadinejad suggested such a debate last September, which was not taken up by Washington. He said Obama's predecessor, George W. Bush, had declined similar invitations because he was "scared".
Iran, the world's fifth-largest oil producer, says its nuclear program is a peaceful bid to produce electricity.
But its uranium enrichment activities, a process which can have both civilian and military uses, has fed fears in some countries that it is trying to build a nuclear weapon.
In his speech, the president mocked the sanctions and the potential for a military strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, an option that the United States and Israel say they do not rule out.
"Who do you think is going to attack us? The Israeli regime? ... We don't consider the regime in our equations, let alone attacking us," he said.
"They say we'll issue sanctions? Okay, do it. How many resolutions have you issued so far? Four? Make it 4,000," he said to loud applause from the conference.
Both Iran and the United States have indicated willingness to return to nuclear talks which stalled last October, leading to the new sanctions.
Amid the anti-American rhetoric in which he said U.S. policy was based on colonialism and the "law of the jungle", Ahmadinejad said he was ready for talks "based on justice and respect".
"We are ready to hold talks at the highest level," he said. "We have always favored talks, Iranians have never, ever favored war."

Governor Brewer and Attorney General Goddard ...a couple of suggestions here...what do ya think?

It wasn't that long ago that Arizona's Attorney General, Terry Goddard was against the state's new immigration law...I believe he said something to the effect that he wasn't going to enforce the new law.  But along comes the Arizona State Legislature that passes another law which directs the Attorney General to do his job...

 See Keytlaw: "The Arizona legislature passed House Bill 2162 signed into law by Governor Brewer, which law orders the Attorney General to do his job and defend Arizona’s immigration law. "

Goddard then comes up with an attempt to look patriotic and says he will defend Arizona's law because he  remembers his oath of office...

“I do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of the State of Arizona, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same and defend them against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge the duties of the office of Attorney General according to the best of my ability, so help me God.”  ...and that he believes in duty, honor & country.

Mr. Goddard, this is where we part company.  You were elected to do a job and refused therefor you should have been fired... and maybe went to prison!  And if it takes special legislation to remind you of where your allegiance is then you are a fake patriot...why don't you move to Mexico and become a real   patriota. ~ Norman E. Hooben

Now for Governor Brewer... Say there Governor Jan Brewer, you don't have to listen to that poor excuse for a judge, Susan Bolton.  In fact she never had jurisdiction in the case to begin with...not according to the following:

In a stunning development that could potentially send the nation into a Constitutional crisis, an astute attorney who is well-versed in Constitutional law states that the ruling against the state of Arizona by Judge Susan Bolton concerning its new immigration law is illegal. 

The attorney in question submitted her assertion in a special article in the Canada Free Press.  Her argument states in part, "Does anyone read the U.S. Constitution these days? American lawyers don’t read it. Federal Judge Susan R. Bolton apparently has never read it. Same goes for our illustrious Attorney General Eric Holder. But this lawyer has read it and she is going to show you something in Our Constitution which is as plain as the nose on your face.

"Article III, Sec. 2, clause 2 says: 

"In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction."

 

In other words, the Judge in the Arizona case has absolutely no Constitutional jurisdiction over the matter upon which she ruled.  As the Constitution makes abundantly clear, only the U.S. Supreme Court can issue rulings that involve a state.

This means that neither Judge Bolton nor the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco, to which the case is being appealed, have any legal standing whatsoever to rule on the issue. 

Thus, U.S. Attorney-General Eric Holder filed the federal government's lawsuit against the state of Arizona in a court that has no authority to hear the case. Source: The Examiner.com  Read full story here

So my best advice to you is simply tell Eric Holder, Susan Bolton, and Barack Obama to go jump in the river...better yet, somebody ought to drop them off somewhere in the middle of the Arizona desert.  Just make sure that its close to the Mexican border so their friends might hear their cries of ¡Ayuda! ~ Norman E. Hooben

Shirley Sherrod...the flip side

"The mistreatment of black workers at NCI under the Sherrods is a matter of record..."

The Story of Annie Hawkins and New Communities, Inc.

The Other Side of Shirley Sherrod

By RON WILKINS

Imagine farm workers doing back breaking labor in the sweltering sun, sprayed with pesticides and paid less than minimum wage. Imagine the United Farm Workers called in to defend these laborers against such exploitation by management. Now imagine that the farm workers are black children and adults and that the managers are Shirley Sherrod, her husband Rev. Charles Sherrod, and a host of others. But it’s no illusion; this is fact.

The swirling controversy over the racist dismissal of Shirley Sherrod from her USDA post has obscured her profoundly oppositional behavior toward black agricultural workers in the 1970s. What most of Mrs. Sherrod’s supporters are not aware of is the elitist and anti-black-labor role that she and fellow managers of New Communities Inc. (NCI) played. These individuals under-paid, mistreated and fired black laborers–many of them less than 16 years of age–in the same fields of southwest Georgia where their ancestors suffered under chattel slavery.

When I first noticed the story of her firing and the association of Shirley Sherrod’s name with the rural black poor and concern for “black land-loss”, I wondered if the person being praised was the same Shirley Sherrod whom I knew. One piece posted on the July 23rd Alternet and captioned “Shirley Sherrod and the black Land Struggle” even claimed that she “devoted her entire life to economic justice”. The mistreatment of black workers at NCI under the Sherrods is a matter of record that contradicts this claim.

If confession is good for the soul, then Mrs. Sherrod took a first step toward her redemption by admitting the error of her ways in her earlier attitudes toward poor white farmers. Mrs. Sherrod says she began to see poverty as more central than race. So, should indigent black child farm laborers warrant less reflection by Mrs. Sherrod? What lessons does she have to share from her tenure as management when she had power over her own people working under deplorable conditions at the same New Communities, Inc.(NCI) identified in the current issue? Shirley Sherrod could have included this chapter of her history in the same confession speech. Justice and integrity require at least as much accountability from Mrs. Sherrod to the poor black farm workers of NCI as to the white farmers she came to befriend. This lack of full disclosure of the whole truth is a “sin of omission” that trivializes the suffering of poor black farm workers and exacerbates the offenses of NCI.

Shirley Sherrod was New Communities Inc. store manager during the 1970s. As such, Mrs. Sherrod was a key member of the NCI administrative team, which exploited and abused the workforce in the field. The 6,000 acre New Communities Inc. in Lee County promoted itself during the latter part of the 1960s and throughout the 70s as a land trust committed to improving the lives of the rural black poor. Underneath this facade, the young and old worked long hours with few breaks, the pay averaged sixty-seven cents an hour, fieldwork behind equipment spraying pesticides was commonplace and workers expressing dissatisfaction were fired without recourse.

The unfortunate story of Mrs. Annie Hawkins and her family in particular is instructive. Persuaded by NCI that their lot would be improved, the Hawkins family stole away from the Georgia plantation that they had called home. After suffering abuse meted out to them and others at NCI, Mrs. Hawkins sadly stated that, “We stole away from one plantation, but just ended up on another.” For her courageous role in demonstrations against the Sherrods and NCI management, Annie Hawkins and her family were fired and kicked out of the house that they were promised. My last encounter with an ailing Mrs. Hawkins took place several years ago in a nursing home where she resided.

Worker protest at New Communities eventually garnered some assistance from the United Farm Workers Union in nearby Florida in the person of one of its most formidable organizers, black State Director, the late Mack Lyons. The September 28, 1974 UFW newspaper El Malcriado, page two, reported on the worker’s strike (“Children Farm Workers Strike Black Co-op” www.farmworkermovement.org/ufwarchives) and the UFW stepped in to protect black farm workers from exploitation by NCI. Fearful of both UFW efforts to unionize NCI’s labor force and scrutiny by the Georgia State Wage and Hour Division, the Sherrods and NCI management hastily issued checks in varying amounts to strikers to makeup ostensibly for minimum wage differentials. It is bitter irony that the Sherrods have succeeded in being awarded $300,000 following a discrimination lawsuit, while Mrs. Hawkins and other impoverished NCI black laborers whom NCI exploited were never adequately compensated for their “pain and suffering”.

While it is true that loan discrimination and relentless creditors can be cited for the eventual demise of New Communities Inc. in 1985, NCI’s unfair labor practices and poor leadership, were equally, if not more, to blame. Ask Shirley Sherrod about this part of her history. I know this story well, for I was one of those workers at NCI.

Ron Wilkins is a former organizer in the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. In 1974, under an assumed name, he hired-on at New Communities Inc. The Emergency Land Fund, an Atlanta-based black land retention organization, which shared oversight responsibility for NCI’s progress, wanted to know the basis for NCI’s continued poor performance. The author’s secondary purpose was to develop agricultural skills. For his role in organizing NCI’s workers, management eventually fired him from his $40 per week position, evicted him from the rent-free shack on NCI property and orchestrated his arrest, on bogus charges, by FBI agents and Lee County, Georgia Sheriff’s deputies in the midst of an NCI labor protest. The charges were later dropped. Presently he is an Africana Studies professor at California State University, Dominguez Hills. He can be reached at: rwilkins@csudh.edu

Harry 'The Weasel" Reid Tries to Cover-up Kagan's Criminal Past

Source: RenewAmerica

Keyes files complaint against Kagan for 'conspiracy to defraud Supreme Court'

August 4, 2010
RenewAmerica staff

Dear Friend of RenewAmerica,

Recently, we received the following message from Alan Keyes' national pro-life organization — Declaration Alliance — appealing for support of a criminal complaint filed by DA and Larry Klayman of Freedom Watch alleging that Elena Kagan defrauded the Supreme Court by altering a scientific report on partial-birth abortion when she was an attorney for President Bill Clinton.

The complaint, which Declaration Alliance and Freedom Watch filed July 28 before the Supreme Court, demonstrates from court records that Kagan altered a scientific analysis — inserting her own words — and passed off the analysis before the Supreme Court as official scientific opinion, fraudulently influencing the court to overturn Nebraska's partial-birth abortion ban in 2000.

The complaint seeks to have Kagan disbarred from practicing before the Supreme Court, as well as investigated for obstruction of justice.

Please read the appeal from Alan Keyes below and give this praiseworthy legal action your support.

Reid-Forced Vote Covers Up Kagan Conspiracy

Ben Nelson (D-Neb) is the first Democrat to oppose Kagan: "... I have heard concerns from Nebraskans.... Therefore, I will not vote to confirm Ms. Kagan's nomination."

Breaking News: Reid planned a vote THIS WEEK on Kagan's confirmation just days after Declaration Alliance retained noted corruption watchdog attorney Larry Klayman to file an ethics complaint seeking to have Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan disbarred from practicing before the court she aspires to join — and possibly subjected to criminal prosecution — for her role in an escalating scandal.

Please SELECT HERE to HELP US KEEP THE SUPREME COURT FREE OF CORRUPTION. Your special DONATION will assist the Declaration Alliance and STOP KAGAN in court, as well as defend America against the willful deception of the highest court in the land by those who desire to control it!

The Declaration Alliance complaint has put REID INTO A POLITICAL CRISIS, the pressure is getting to him and he is afraid to allow the debate of Kagan's record to be widely exposed to American voters. Democrats are wavering: Bennet, Boxer, Murray, Feingold, Lincoln, Tester, Begich, Webb, Baucus, Landrieu, Burris, Bayh, Dodd, and Specter — PLUS RINOs Lugar, Graham, Collins, and Snowe — are still being heavily lobbied to act like the CONSTITUTION STILL MATTERS, and your donations will be used to turn up the pressure.

The Cover Up Vote by Reid is a transparent attempt to hide the fact from Americans that Kagan conspired to fraudulently alter an official scientific report used as evidence by the Supreme Court. This report persuaded the justices to overturn bans on partial-birth abortion — and then, Kagan recently lied about her actions under oath during her SCOTUS confirmation hearings! Senator Jeff Sessions told The Hill that Reid's bum's rush "may be an attempt to compact the nomination so the American people aren't as able to be attuned to what's occurring. The nominee isn't particularly popular with the American people. So maybe they want to force it through. It's not good."

Ethics — Criminal Complaints Filed To Disbar Kagan

'She should not be a justice when she's defrauded the Supreme Court'

Kagan's political maneuvers while an attorney for President Bill Clinton led to language authored by her becoming fraudulently accepted as "official findings" of a medical "expert panel."

Kagan's inserted language misled the federal courts, including the Supreme Court, into upholding for nearly a decade legal protections for the heinous practice known as partial-birth abortion that 30 states had attempted to ban. Klayman, founder of the Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch USA public interest law groups, is bringing the complaint at the behest of Declaration Alliance, the national pro-life social welfare organization I founded in 1996.

Please SELECT HERE to HELP US KEEP THE SUPREME COURT FREE OF CORRUPTION. Your special DONATION will assist the Declaration Alliance and STOP KAGAN in court, as well as defend America against the willful deception of the highest court in the land by those who desire to control it!

The complaint alleges Kagan fraudulently altered an official scientific report used as evidence by the Supreme Court to persuade the justices to overturn bans on partial-birth abortion — and then recently lied about her actions under oath.

Select Here To Read The Entire Complaint
Dozens of pro-life organizations are already calling for a Senate investigation of Kagan's 1997 alterations to an American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) expert report, which was then relied upon by the Supreme Court as medical, scientific justification for overturning Nebraska's partial-birth abortion ban in 2000.

In her confirmation hearings, Kagan may have perjured herself during the course of Justice Committee questioning about her actions in having altered the report. She defended her participation in political meetings and editing of the report by stating, "My only dealings with ACOG were about talking with them about how to ensure that their statement expressed their views."

In light of detailed review and analysis by Americans United for Life Action and other groups of Kagan's contemporaneous documentation on these matters, there can be no doubt that this testimony is false and misleading. Kagan's amended language to the ACOG report was politically negotiated and strategized, and it dramatically changed the meaning of the ACOG statement. Court records show the ACOG report as altered by Kagan was passed off to the Supreme Court as official scientific opinion, even though the ACOG's panel of scientists never reviewed or approved Kagan's wording.

Declaration Alliance believes Kagan's behind-the-scenes work constitutes "conspiracy to defraud the Supreme Court," and in the public interest is urgently taking the evidence that has been compiled by pro-life groups and exposed in Kagan's confirmation hearings to file a complaint before the clerk's office of the U.S. Supreme Court, seeking to have Kagan disbarred as a practicing lawyer in front of the Supreme Court.

And on advice of counsel, Declaration Alliance will not stop there.

States Klayman, "Then I'm going to ask the Supreme Court to refer the matter to the Justice Department for criminal investigation and possibly prosecution of obstruction of justice, because it was reasonably foreseeable that her altering that [ACOG] report would ultimately be used in court proceedings, including but not limited to the Supreme Court."

Even if Kagan is confirmed by a vote in the Senate, Declaration Alliance will not give up the fight. "If she is ultimately confirmed — and we can hope that she will not be — then we will go to phase two, which will be impeachment," stated Klayman.

Klayman concludes, "Elena Kagan should not be a justice of the Supreme Court when she's defrauded the Supreme Court. In fact, she shouldn't even be allowed to practice in front of the Supreme Court under these circumstances."

Declaration Alliance will pursue all recourse under law to ensure that justice prevails against Kagan's abuse of the public trust. Any pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution civic organization also desiring to uphold the ethical standards of American justice by aggressive pursuit of sanctions against Elena Kagan is invited to join in this effort.

Missouri Rejects Communist Insurance Policy...or should that be, "policies"

We, The People Of Missouri Rebuke The Communist’s Revolution, 71% Vote To Prohibit Obama From Requiring Them To Have Health Insurance

August 4th, 2010 Posted By Pat Dollard.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Missouri voters on Tuesday overwhelmingly rejected a key provision of President Barack Obama’s health care law, sending a clear message of discontent to Washington and Democrats less than 100 days before the midterm elections.
About 71 percent of Missouri voters backed a ballot measure, Proposition C, that would prohibit the government from requiring people to have health insurance or from penalizing them for not having it.
The Missouri law conflicts with a federal requirement that most people have health insurance or face penalties starting in 2014.  ...Full story here

Sri Lankan Terrorists Coming Your Way ...from the comment section, "Sink them in international waters." Not a bad idea!

Washington Post Staff Writer - Wednesday, August 4, 2010

An estimated 200 asylum seekers from Sri Lanka, including some believed to be members of a group the United States has labeled a terrorist organization, are aboard a ship in the Pacific Ocean heading toward North America, according to U.S. government officials and other sources.

The MV Sun Sea had been destined for Australia but changed course after its captain determined that Australia's navy and coast guard would prevent it from landing. Its current destination is believed to be the west coast of Canada, and it is expected to make landfall mid-month.
"We are aware of the vessel and are monitoring its progress," said Matthew Chandler, a Department of Homeland Security spokesman. "Should an emergency arise, the United States will respond appropriately."
The passengers are believed to include members of the separatist group the Tamil Tigers... Read full story here

Obamaland: The Welfare State and the Road to Serfdom

The working and poor and the non-workers get rich off the backs of the producers. Disgusting.

  Things are getting out of hand! This letter came from a doctor in Danville, IL. 


  Dear Mr. Limbaugh,


  I was speaking to an emergency room physician this morning. He told me that a woman in her 20’s came to the ER with her 8th pregnancy. She stated “my momma told me that I am the breadwinner for the family.” He asked her to explain. She said that she can make babies and babies get money for the family. The scam goes like this: The grandma calls the Department of Child and Family Services and states that the unemployed daughter is not capable of caring for these children. DCFS agrees and states that the child or children will need to go to foster care. The grandma then volunteers to be the foster parent, and thus receives a check for $1500 per child per month in Illinois. Total yearly income: $144,000 tax-free, not to mention free healthcare (Medicaid) plus a monthly “Linx” card entitling her to free groceries, etc, and a voucher for 250 free cell phone minutes per month. This does not even include Wick and other welfare programs. Indeed, grandma was correct in that her fertile daughter is the “breadwinner” in the family.


  I hope you share this story with your listeners so that they know how the ruling class spends their tax dollars.


  Also, many thanks for the fine service you provide in educating people about the merits of conservative thinking.


  Cheers,

How much time is there left before we are LOST? ...also Agenda 21, its coming your way! (Don't dismiss this one, IT WILL AFFECT YOU !)

I warned you back in July of 2009 that this was coming (see Obama's Ultimate Sell Out...you!) and on numerous other occasions before Obama came into the picture.  This is not a 'Democrat only' agenda.  President George W. Bush tried to get LOST ratified back in 2006 with the help of some prominent Democrats, John Kerry and Ted Kennedy (see http://www.usasurvival.org/docs/lost.bush.kennedy.pdf).  (Side note to the 2006 attempt at ratification: You may recall that then President Bush sent a letter to Senator Lugar which basically said, "Get this thing ratified!" and it was then people like myself called the White House and put a stop to this sell-out treaty.  My message to the president at that time was among other words, "The blood bath will be on your hands!")  Meanwhile I knew something had to be going on behind closed doors with the Obama administration because of their global agenda but the only thing that I was aware of until this (see National Ocean Council below) came out was Senator Kerry's mention of LOST earlier this year.  Because I put a lot of effort into the prevention of ratification of the Law Of The Sea Treaty to include numerous emails to friends, family, and strangers and with very little feedback all that is left to say regarding this matter is that any of you that have dismissed my warnings belong to Eric Holder's nation of cowards.  Too strong a statement you say...not hardly!  Not strong enough!  For I will live, I will fight and I will die for God and country in that order and no-one will stand in my way...Amen!  Now get off your duff and stop this back door passage of the Law Of The Sea Treaty or you can be rest assured that your country will be LOST! ~ Norman E.

National Ocean Council

By Cassandra Anderson
July 28, 2010

Thirty states will be encroached upon by Obama's Executive Order establishing the National Ocean Council for control over America's oceans, coastlines and the Great Lakes. Under this new council, states' coastal jurisdictions will be subject to the United Nations' Law Of Sea Treaty (LOST) in this UN Agenda 21 program. America'a oceans and coastlines will be broken into 9 regions that include the North East, Mid-Atlantic, South Atlantic, the Gulf Coast, West Coast, the Great Lakes, Alaska, the Pacific Islands (including Hawaii) and the Caribbean.

Because of the decades of difficulty that the collectivists have had trying to ratify the Law Of Sea Treaty (LOST), Obama is sneaking it in through the back door, by way of this Executive Order establishing the Council. Because LOST is a treaty, Obama's Executive Order is not Constitutional as treaty ratification requires 2/3 approval from the Senate. Michael Shaw said that the Agenda 21 Convention on Biodiversity treaty of 1992 failed to pass Congress so it was executed through soft law and administratively on local levels, and Obama's Executive Order is a similar soft law tactic to enact the LOST treaty.

In fact, our Constitutional form of government is being completely destroyed because buried in the CLEAR Act (HR 3534) there is a provision for a new council to oversee the outer continental shelf- it appears that this Regional Outer Shelf Council will be part of the National Ocean Council. This means that if Congress makes the CLEAR Act into law, then the implementation of the UN Law Of Sea Treaty, as part of the National Ocean Council's agenda, will be "ratified" in a convoluted and stealth manner, in full opposition to the Constitution and its intent.

The excuse for this extreme action is because of the emergency in the Gulf of Mexico. Obama and Congress have always had the legal and military power to force BP Oil to take all necessary action to stop the gusher and clean the oil spew. While there is evidence that the problems in the Gulf have been a result of collusion and planned incompetence, it begs the question, why in world should America's oceans and resources be controlled by Obama appointees?

NATIONAL OCEAN COUNCIL MEMBERS:

John Holdren, Obama's science and technology advisor, is the co-chairman of this new council. He is also a depopulation enthusiast and advocates sterilization by way of using infertility drugs in water and food as well as forced abortions which he describes in his book "Ecoscience".

Ken Salazar, Secretary of the Department of Interior, and its subagency, MMS (Minerals Management Service) has authority over offshore drilling and responsibility for enforcing spill prevention measures. The Department of Interior's BLM (Bureau of Land Management) is the entity that controls federally managed land extending across 30% of America in 11 western states. Last week, Congressman Louie Gohmert said that Ken Salazar personally prevented drilling on land in Utah, Wyoming and Colorado, thereby also preventing energy independence. In addition, the federal lands have been grossly mismanaged and present fire dangers. The federal government is $3.7 billion in arrears for maintenance of the federally managed lands.

US Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, by way of the US Forestry Service and US Fish & Wildlife Service, has been complicit in the decline of our country's food independence. For example, US Fish & Wildlife (along with the Department of Commerce) shut the water off in California using Endangered Species Act; it was later proven that partially treated sewage was the primary culprit in killing the salmon and delta smelt that was previously blamed on farmers. This is phony environmentalism. The US Forestry Service has also misused the Endangered Species Act to limit farmers and ranchers. Remember that the USDA co-owns the Terminator Gene patent with Monsanto that makes seeds sterile.

Lisa Jackson is the EPA administrator who has threatened to impose 18,000 pages of new regulations to curb global warming which is based on lies, claiming that carbon dioxide is a danger to human health.

Department of Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano: it is unclear how these two federal appointees will enhance environmental 'sustainability' over oceans and coasts. Traditionally, national security threats (like the War on Terror) have been used by the federal government to take control of resources. For example, many years ago when the interstate highway systems were first being built, the Feds got in on the action by claiming that they were building a defense highway system, and they encroached into an area that belonged to the states. Interestingly, there were no overhead structures on highways originally because of the Feds' claim that large missiles would be transported on these "defense" highway systems.

Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, a leading globalist, is likely to plunge our country into international entanglements and subjugation, based on her past performance; an example is her support of the UN Small Arms Treaty, which is contrary to the Constitution.

Department of Energy Secretary Steven Chu and Department of Commerce Secretary Gary Locke are logical choices for this destructive council as some of the planned funding for this program will come from permits and leases (oil drilling leases, for example). These agencies will limit America's energy independence.

THE SMOKING GUN:

Agenda 21 Sustainable Development is the overarching blueprint for depopulationa and total control, and the National Ocean Council is clearly an Agenda 21 program:

The National Ocean Council is headed by John Holdren, an avowed eugenicist which is selective breeding through brutal means like forced abortion.

The National Ocean Counci's own report (Coastal and Marine Spatial Planning, pg. 8) incorporates a section of the 1992 Rio Declaration which is an original UN Agenda 21 document!

In fact, the report says that it will be guided by the Rio Declaration in cases "Where there are threats of serious or irreversible damage, lack of full scientific certainty shall not be used as a reason for postponing cost-effective measures to prevent environmental degradation." (pg. 8) This means that regulations will be imposed even if the science is not understood or if the science is based on global warming manipulated data.


The 3 primary tools of Agenda 21's phony environmentalism are global warming, water shortages and the Endangered Species Act; the National Ocean Council intends to exploit all of these tools to their full extent.

The National Ocean Council's main objective is to sink American sovereignty through the United Nations Law Of Sea Treaty (LOST) with the intended result of domination by the UN over our coasts and the Great Lakes. LOST originated in the 1970s as a wealth redistribution plan to benefit Third World countries. LOST sets rules for commercial activity beneath the high seas and establishes new international bureaucracies and a tribunal to interpret and apply rules to sea activity. And LOST can proceed with those rules, even against US objections! LOST threatens to complicate deep sea mining. LOST sets a precedent that US rights are dependent upon the approval of international entities. LOST also extends to ocean flowing rivers.

REGIONALISM:

Michael Shaw pointed out that non-elected councils are increasingly expanding their jurisdiction through air quality boards, water quality boards, sewer systems, transportation districts, metropolitan planning, etc. to gain control over resources. Often, large corporations and financial interests form Public- Private Partnerships with the government within these councils.

Breaking areas into regions and placing authority with non-elected councils is a Communist trick used to hijack resources, thereby usurping local and state power by re-zoning the areas that do have Constitutional authority. Appointed bureaucrats are untouchable because their jobs are not dependent upon serving the voting population. And they are usually inaccessible to the public and do not have to face those who are affected by their "insider" decisions. When state and local governments become corrupt, the public is able to confront them eye to eye, but distant bureaucrats can avoid accountability. Regionalism is used as a psychological tactic to intimidate state legislatures into creating the system for a new political and economic order.

Obama's Executive Order that has created the 9 new regions amounts to re-zoning, and his appointed bureaucrats are answerable only to him. In David Horton's testimony in 1978 on regionalism, he said that the State of Indiana made this declaration, "Neither the states nor Congress have ever granted authority to any branch or agency of the federal government to exercise regional control over the states." Horton further stated that Congress holds all legislative power that is granted in the Constitution, as opposed to Executive Orders that are not legislative. Therefore, Obama's Executive Order for re-zoning and appointing a governing body to usurp state and local power is Constitutionally invalid.

The public must become aware of state sovereignty and the Tenth Amendment to demand that state and local governments assert these Constitutional laws and principles.

COASTAL AND MARINE SPATIAL PLANNING REPORT:

This is a general overview of the new National Ocean Council's goals based on its 32-page report that uses indirect language and acronyms in order to confuse the public and local lawmakers. Depopulation advocates, globalists and collectivists, like John Holdren, faced opposition a few decades ago when they clearly expressed their objectives, so now documents are written in complicated and clouded language to fool those they wish to control.

This report states that the Council's jurisdiction will extend from the continental shelf to the coast AND additional inland areas will be involved. The National Ocean Council identifies "partners" as members of each regional planning body that will include federal, state, local and tribal authorities, with a top-down hierarchy of control.

The intentions of the Council are stated on page 8 of the report that include implementing LOST and other international treaties.  The report also states that the Counci's plans shall be implemented by Executive Orders, in addition to federal and state laws.  This section mentions 'global climate change' which is a new term used as a substitute for 'man made global warming' after manipulated data and lies were exposed in numerous global warming scandals.  'Climate change' is blamed for sea level rise and acidification of oceans; evidence exists that these are more global warming deceptions.

The stated goals of the Council include regulating investments, collaborating with unidentified international agencies, controlling public access to oceans and "protecting" ecosystems. This means that commerce and trade will be controlled by the Council, the UN will gain power over American oceans and the Great Lakes through UN subagencies, public access will be limited and the Endangered Species Act will be unleashed, with heavy regulations. Incidentally, the Endangered Species Act is based on 5 international treaties. It has never had a successful result: of the 60 species that have been de-listed, not a single species was saved as a result of any restrictions stemming from the Endangered Species Act!

The targeted areas for Endangered Species Act regulations are the the Great Lakes, the Gulf Coast, Chesapeake Bay, Puget Sound, South Florida and the San Francisco Bay (the Bay Delta is where the irrigation water for farmers was was cut off using the Endangered Species Act, causing food shortages, an increase in food imports and massive economic devastation).

While this report does not clearly outline how the National Ocean Council's schemes will be financed, regulatory permits for all activity on the water and mining (oil) leases will play a part, along with tax increases. The report does indicate that grants and assistance programs will be available so that state, local and tribal authorities will support the Council's "efforts". In other words, the Council will try to buy off the state and local governments to "collectively use" them for a base of support and influence. (pg. 28) Strings are always attached to federal money. The federal government and the Council are reliant on state and local governments for implementation through state and local legal authority, which means that state and local authorities hold the power to implement or refuse the Council's directives, especially under the Tenth Amendment.

However, the report does state that disputes will be settled by consensus, if consensus fails, then the decisions will ultimately be made by the President. He is Commander in Chief of the Navy and has the power of the military behind him. Further, the report indicates that legislative changes and more Executive Orders may be necessary to achieve control.

An important point is made on page 5, which states, "Strong partnerships among Federal, State, tribal and local authorities, and regional governance structures would be essential to a truly forward-looking, comprehensive CMSP effort." This means that the states, local governments and tribes have power. Our collectivist government needs the consent of the state, local and tribal authorities, to implement this scheme, otherwise, the feds wouldn't bother to include these Constitutional authorities. If the state, local and tribal authorities are aware of, and willing to act on their Constitutional authority, then they can limit this federal power grab through the Tenth Amendment.

The report further states that signing onto the Council's plan would be an "express commitment by the partners to act in accordance with the plan..." (pg. 20) Therefore, it is imperative that all of the states be aware of the Council's intended usurpation and carefully protect their Constitutional jurisdictions and sovereignty. There are 30 states that will be affected by this new council. (pg. 12)

The Council's strategy plan will go into effect immediately, fully developing Agenda 21 objectives and undue UN influence within 5 years. Interestingly, one article said that if state, local and tribal authorities choose not to participate in in writing the plans, the plans would be written without them. Therefore, it bears repeating that state and local governments must protect their Constitutional authority when dealing with the Council. The Constitutional authority that states and local governments have can only be taken if the power is given away. 

SAVING OUR COUNTRY:

If your freedom is important to you, the most effective action that you can take is to e-mail this article and Michael Shaw's "Understanding Agenda 21 Sustainable Development" booklet to all of your State Legislators, County Commissioners/ Superintendents and City Council members.

Tell all of your friends, co-workers and neighbors about Agenda 21 Sustainable Development and how it is destroying our country. The National Ocean Council is detrimental on so many levels and the time to act is now. If state and local officials refuse to stand up against this federal incursion, they must be thrown out of office in favor of representatives who support the Constitution and the Tenth Amendment.

Be sure to check back with www.MorphCity.com on July 30th to watch a special video presentation about how a local official stood up against encroachment by the federal government.

Food & Depopulation: Scams and Solutions

(Part 4 of 4)
By Cassandra Anderson
June 23, 2010

The Food & Depopulation series of articles has been written for people who think that conspiracies are mere theories, that the American government is working in our best interest and that the United Nations is benevolent. Nothing could be further from the truth; irrefutable proof of this is explained in the previous three articles. Sharing the truth about food is an exceptionally effective way to wake people up because all people have a personal relationship with food every day. Here are the important points to remember:
