About end times and 'the last days'. Political perfection is what is being sold today: Getting back to the utopian garden the world's way without God. There is a new movie out, Avatar. I heard that there is a high incidence of anxiety among youth after watching this film because of the perfect world that is displayed. Also heard of the same of astronauts returning from the peacefulness of space having depression issues. Political perfection is the the thing that Jesus' disciples thought Je... [ More ]

Adding one minute to the 'doomsday' clock should not comfort us. If you take the opposite of what they say as the truth (which is how it works), it does not bode well for us. If I was setting the clock it would read 11:59.

Thanx Rick. Did you see Jesse Ventura Conspiracy Theory TV show last night on TruTV? It was about 2012, that the gov knows big earth catsrophy coming and they have been building underground housing all over the country for the elites. Another way they are buying off those "civil servants" is to promise them a ticket to an underground hide out in 2012. If you missed any of the 6 episodes of Jesse great TV show they are posted on Youtube by several ppl, just do a search.

This looks like an attempt to stem the threat of a 50-state secession. The governors will be selected from the most populous states. Their "hands will be tied" when the people of their own states demand secession from this rogue govt. They will betray their own states in their lust to be part of the "Inner Party". Gun rights will be the first thing to go. The military has no business policing its own citizens. They won't be carrying Tasers and pepper spray, it will be M-16... [ More ]

Thanks for posting this, all I do is radio and some internet for news. Things sure are stacking up and not just here, Canada, England, Australia. Some same things going on all over. I really do not think there is a right or left, at least at the higher tiers. It is a designed conflict to keep us in division. Every major conflict for hundreds of years was a designed conflict, not a 'happening'. The fact that we as a nation are less united is no accident, no more than the concentration of wealth or power or world dominion was an accident. We are the nation to bring an old dream come true, it's on the back of our lowest denomination paper currency. The objecive is the placing of the capstone or to 'topoff'. Two names given to drills run in this country under the guise of some kind of attack. Our country is the vehicle to this old dream that spans generations and centuries; our nightmare to the few who are awakened today. Only one thing prevents the ultimate plan: Romans 10: 9 & 10. When that rule no longer applies, this world will be in utter darkness and nothing will impede the guy behind the curtain of secrecy. Relax, this is just a bump in the road.... [ More ]

It's like Kathryn Austin Fitz said today, it's like they are all stoned and drunk at a party and nobody has the will to say Hey Wait Just A Darn Minute, Stop Breaking The Law!!!

Obama Extends Power over Governors

As Kurt Nimmo wrote in his article Obama Expands Federal Power Over the States with Executive Order, The order, signed on January 11 2010, further diminishes the sovereignty of the states and builds on a framework for possible martial law. The executive order was completely ignored by the corporate media.

Ten Governors are required to meet whenever called. What if they refuse?

As the executive orders mandates, The Council shall meet at the call of the Secretary of Defense or the Co-Chairs

This authorizes the federal government, whenever they wish, to round up ten Governors. What if they refuse? Will they be arrested or taken by force?

An abuse of power

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and all the Founding Fathers would be furious past the boiling point over this Unconstitutional, self-authorizing expansion of executive power.

Given too much power, the Founding Fathers knew an abusive President would turn against the citizens and their states, so they granted specific, limited powers to the Executive Branch and established barriers to halt unauthorized expansions of power.

Ten Governors to be outnumbered and outgunned

Once assembled, Governors are no longer protected by their bodyguards, executive protection or state militia. They are subject to intimidation, interrogation, bullying, and personal threats. Would anyone exclude torture?

Under the false pretense of meeting to exchange views, information, or advice, ten Governors will be forced to meet with top military commanders including:

The Secretary of Defense; the Secretary of Homeland Security; the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counter terrorism; the Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement; the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas Security Affairs; the Commander, United States Northern Command; the Chief, National Guard Bureau; the Commandant of the Coast Guard; and other appropriate officials of the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense, and appropriate officials of other executive departments or agencies as may be designated by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of Homeland Security

Governors You will do as commanded

The Founding Fathers knew that freedom and liberty is always destroyed from domestic enemies, and during the final stages of converting a republic to fascism, an attack is pretended and enemies or terrorists are blamed.

This Council of Governors, like Hitler s staff, may be told it is their duty to impose martial law to quell rebellions or arrest terrorists, who are just Constitution-loving citizens on the government s massive terrorist list, and they may be compelled to carry out such orders.

What if Governors are commanded to disregard the Bill of Rights, arrest innocent citizens and take them to FEMA detention camps?

The President serves the people; the people do not serve the President

The President serves the people and states, and must stand accountable. It is the duty of the Governors, Congress and Supreme Court to check his every act against the Constitution and Bill of Rights, to thwart the Executive Branch from amassing tyrannical powers, and to nullify any bills, executive orders or presidential signings their states do not support.

State governments are not extensions of the federal government. Governors do not serve the Executive Branch. This executive order is completely wrong, is exactly what the Constitution was established to prevent, and must not be accepted.

Council of Governors can be used to bully other Governors

Will acts against these Governors be used an example for non-compliance of federal mandates? Will Governors be persuaded to declare that state sovereignty is irrelevant?

If Governors are bullied, who will protect the people?

Citizens are protected by their states, each led by a state Governor. Governors have the power to organize and assemble militias to defend citizens against domestic and foreign enemies, including despots, dictators, the President, and totalitarian government.

Now the President can conveniently demand meetings at all the wrong times

What if Governors had scheduled a meeting to nullify executive powers, dissolve the Executive Branch or plan succession? The Founding Fathers established separate branches of government to balance power representing citizens and states. The Constitution was designed to protect citizens against an all-powerful President who grants himself sweeping powers over Governors and the citizens they are sworn to defend.

If Governors decide to protect their states against a run-away Executive Branch, they must not be kept from their duties.

The Constitution and Bill of Rights are roadblocks against tyranny, not Hallmark Greeting Cards

The Founding Fathers studied history and the rise and fall of nations. They knew that whenever an abusive King, President or Executive Branch gets too much authority, they practice unrighteous and unlawful dominion, so they created a Constitution to protect people against their government, not to protect government against the people. By controlling Governors by their earlobes, the Executive Branch is seizing unprecedented state control under the disguise of exchanging, views, information, or advice.

While some say this is just the formation of an advisory council, this unlawful presidential executive order is another attack against freedom and liberty. Governors may be our last defense against executive abuse, and states nullifying Unconstitutional bills our last hope. Those who seek to complete the overthrow of the United States of America know this very well.

Tyranny and abuse always begin with what first seems to be harmless acts of legislation. Phone your state Governors today and demand your voice be heard.
