CAIR condemns Sheriff Hammonds remarks demanding US DOJ investigate civil rights violations

CAIR condemns Sheriff Hammonds remarks demanding US DOJ investigate civil rights violations

As sure as the sun is set to rise every morning in Chattanooga Tennessee, so was the expected response by the Muslim Brotherhood front group, Hamas tied, designated Terrorist Group CAIR demanding extra protection for Muslims after Tennessee sheriff calls for enhanced monitoring of potential Muslim terrorists in Tennessee.

CAIR today said it will call on the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate the civil rights implications of “raw anti-Muslim bigotry” expressed by a Hamilton County  Sheriff, Jim Hammond, who  recently said that Islam is communism with a god and is a huge threat to constitutional government.

Considering the most recent terrorist attack by Mohammed Youseff  Abdullahzeez that killed 5 US Service members in downtown Chattanooga, this is a very smart move by the Sheriff to protect the citizens of his city.

According to Nooga.com, the hate group, CAIR, Council on American-Islamic Relations is asking public officials to protect the civil rights of Tennessee Muslims after recent remarks from Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Hammond.

“They want Tennessee,” Hammond said. “They’re building mosques as fast as they can in Tennessee. For us to sit back and do nothing is wrong.”

Speaking at a Pachyderm luncheon Monday, Hammond urged other Tennessee sheriffs to monitor Muslims throughout the state for illegal and questionable activity.

He said Islam is a “state, wrapped in a religion so they can get the tax breaks, so they cannot have government intrusion into their mosques. They are able to use our own system against us.”

Hammonds continued with his verbal assault against Islam extremists stating “Islam is very good at what they do. They have built a structure to take over this country. And many of the pieces are in place.”

CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper said in a statement to the Chattanooga Times Free Press,

“Given Sheriff Hammond’s extremist views and his stated plan to act on and spread those views, it is incumbent on state and federal officials to take appropriate action to protect the civil and legal rights of the state’s Muslim population.” 

Hammond also said Muhammad Abdulazeez was motivated by jihad in fatally shooting five service members July 16 in Chattanooga. Coincidentally Abdullahzeez was a “regular” worshipper at the local mosque, ISGC, Islamic Society of Greater Chattanooga with known financial ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

“I can stand up here and tell you, as your sheriff, I’m convinced that this was Islamic terrorism,” he said.

Hammond went on to defend his position by saying he was not against all Muslims just the extreme radical ones, not the entire religion.

Rapid firing back against CAIRs accusations Hammond said that he is against anyone, Muslim, Buddhist or Christian who want to replace constitutional government with religious laws (Sharia Law)

He concluded his defense by stating that “Law abiding Muslims have nothing to worry about.”

Ibrahim Hooper quipped back and said be would like to see some kind of formal condemnation of such attitudes by state and federal officials, further stating we shouldn’t have to ask for these things but we do.

In light of the current trend of violence or Jihad against Americans, Christians and people abroad it is high time that we take Sheriff Hammonds advice and closely monitor the activities of radical Islam and collectively ask for  closer monitoring of their activities. Just as they have destroyed the culture in Europe, they will also in Chattanooga Tennessee and the US.

Fellow Tennesseans, Sheriff Hammonds comments are a shot across the bow warning Chattanooga and the state of Tennessee that Hijra (Conquest by immigration) and Jihad (Holy War) are upon us and the city is becoming inundated with violent extremism. According to local sources radical Islamists are flocking to our city in droves as the Jihadist influence is spreading. 

The call to stop this must be heeded before it is to late.

Please contact your legislators and elected local officials and demand that they take Sheriff Hammonds warnings literally as a man on the front lines, demanding this one sided war against Christians and all Americans stop.

Remember your silence is your consent.

My preferred weapon is information and my belief is to have a revolution we must share information and encourage all to act responsibly and precisely.

Common Core: 6th grade Arkansas class asked to revise and edit the outdated Bill of Rights

Common Core: 6th grade Arkansas class asked to revise and edit the outdated Bill of Rights

A 6th grade in Arkansas has been asked to complete a task.

The task is to form a special committee and bring the “outdated” Bill of Rights up to the 21st century.

The class was asked to form an ad hoc committee to change the Bill of Rights, the first 10 amendments to the Constitution, into a shell of what it used to be, dismantling it at your convenience, to update the outdated piece of paper.

To study the document and tell us what needs to come out, what needs to stay and add a few if you choose.

It is bone chilling at the casual leisurely pace and rhythm the standards lull our children into thinking that this could be the best way in the near future to make changes.

It completely undermines the constitution and its attached rights as Americans and weakens our republic. 

It reinforces to me that there are people and forces out there dead set on destroying the backbone of our country and will utilize your/our children to attain that goal.

Below in parentheses is the lesson plan using the Common Core standards as it’s guide….the scenario.

“The government of the United States is currently revisiting the Bill of Rights. They have determined that it is outdated and may not remain in it’s current form any longer.”

“Their aim is to ensure that our personal civil liberties and the pursuit of happiness remains guarded into the 21st Century.”
The government has asked for input from experts on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.”

“You have been selected to work on a National Revised Bill of Rights Task Force. You have been charged with the task of revising and  editing the Bill of Rights.”

“More specifically you will need to prioritize, prune, and add amendments and turn your ideas into a revised Bill of Rights.”

“Your teams proposal will be submitted in it’s final form as a persuasive presentation to Mrs Knight and Associates.”

What you just read is not a speech made at the United Nations. It was not a speech written by Hitler,  it was not a Muslim Brotherhood cohort plotting to destroy the US from the inside. Nor was it a Bill Ayers mantra  in Chicago directing his weather underground clones to blow up another building.

What you just read was a “lesson plan” to a 6th grade Arkansas elementary school inside the Bryant School District.

Lela Spears, 6th grader mother of the child involved said “the lesson plan” asked the students to revise, omit two, and add two amendments to the outdated Bill of Rights. And when her daughter came home and didn’t exactly feel right about what was being taught, the attentive caring mother alerted the press to these happenings but still has many questions.

Why would any public school be questioning whether the Bill of Rights is a viable part of the Constitution or not. 

Why would they have to do this to a bunch of 6th graders, who may not even know fully what the Bill of Rights stands for?  It’s called conditioning! Influencing tiny minds a little at a time till they are conditioned to think this way and make future decisions as adults on the input they learned as a youth. 

The Constitution is the law of the land and is solely the document that has kept us free and on the course of liberty for 250 plus years. Of what value does presenting anything other that the aforementioned statement have on the education of an American child?

This is the foundation of our country that is being whittled away a little at a time. This is a covert diversion from the path intended to continued greatness for our country, a far cry from the direction our forefathers intended.

 Why is there no discussion of the way to change or amend the Constitution via Congressional action with perhaps a constitutional convention, a majority vote of lawmakers after a lengthy debate? 

Nope, all we have to do is form a committee, empowered by the government because we tire of the way we have done things or because it doesn’t fit into a certain political agenda.

Outdated and may not remain in it’s current form? Really? This is planting the seed of our country’s demise.

This is enabling the thought that tyranny and a monarchy can rule a country and if you can form a governmental committee then you change the structure of what made our country great in one fatal swoop.

It promotes disloyalty and sets up a pattern of thought that if this country and it’s inalienable rights do not fit into your social calendar you can simply form a committee and you can change it.

We are playing a very dangerous game in our country by allowing Common Core into our schools.

Our children, without parent uproar will unknowingly be shifted into the world of “globalists” and “Socialists” where every opportunity to negatively influence our infrastructure will be done with hardly a blink because of the indoctrination throughout out children’s formidable years.

One day our children will be called upon to replace us and take the reigns of leading this country. The country will be saturated with those willing and able to manipulate and destroy the precious documents their forefathers held dearly trivializing it to an outdated document needing a revision.

Our countries demise is being mapped out and the training ground and the tools to accomplish such a task is happening as we speak….in our schools…..by some very sinister individuals….with a definitive plan…….Common Core!

Speak up now and speak up loudly. The doors are closing to never open again as our countries greatness and those born to lead are being softened into politically correct marshmallows, spineless and in much  need  of a teet on which to suckle!

God bless us.

Governor Bill Haslams deliberate attempt to make Tennessee Sharia compliant- The Timeline

Governor Bill Haslams deliberate attempt to make Tennessee Sharia compliant- The Timeline 

Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam has made it clear by his repeated actions that he will pursue a policy that promotes the interest of Islamist and their radical ideology as long as he is governor.

The attempted takeover of our great state by the left, the progressive or the communist was expected. What was not expected was the underhanded approach by Governor Bill Haslam to dismantle our sovereignty one step at a time, methodically, making our state Sharia compliant with his policies.

Republican In Name Only Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam has done all within his power to provide the venue for our demise. 

Governor Bill Haslam is undeniably preparing our state to be Sharia compliant utilizing a very powerful political Islamic machine that is hell bent on overriding our Constitution for the demands of a few while injecting their own beliefs on the majority demanding that the Constitution be upheld! 

Governor Haslams intent must be questioned. His seemingly purposeful  yielding to political Islam must be countered.

Governor Haslam, big Oil Billionaire,  big coal investor has positioned himself to be a middle eastern darling of CAIR, AMAC, ACO, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood and by his actions is doing all within his power to promote a nutrient rich environment for Islam/Sharia to flourish. The naiveté and neckbreak speed he is moving forward is detestable. 

The timeline below puts his efforts into a chronological order of which he can’t deny. 

His meaningful steps to turn our state into a sharia compliant state while pacifying political Islam is obvious when you look at the steps that he and those around him have taken to get us there chronologically.

From his liberal “Mayors against Guns” days to the Muslim Diversity class given by Islamic extremists with a healthy assist from the DOJ, AMAC and the FBI is proof that this mans agenda does not include keeping our state sovereign and all our rights on equal footing.

He, whether he acknowledges it or not is paving the way, purposefully, and it should be stopped immediately. His actions are louder than his words.

The duality inside the political Islamic machine must be understood before our own Governor Bill Haslam sees his errant ways and to date he shows no signs of repentance.

Some Americans are expressing we honor their rights while expecting others to give up others inalienable God given rights does not seem like fair play prime for negotiation.  

Changing the laws to make others political wishes dominant is not a way to gain acceptance of your way of life or acceptance of your religious beliefs.

For Governor Bill Haslam to seemingly have the ability to make this happen with a wave of his wand sounds less than desirable inside a constitutional republic that is begging for sound leadership.

The visual timeline of the Haslam deception cannot be denied. The items were compiled and although not all inclusive sheds light on the methodical dismantling of our state by one man dead set on placating to political Islam while ignoring the rights and beliefs of the remaining 99 percent throughout the state.

I would just say that on that issue I don’t agree with Rick.”

Obama, Clinton grant UN “poll watchers” diplomatic immunity, Texas AG says “bring it”

BCN Note- A showdown between Lone Star Texans Attorney General Abbott, Governor Rick Perry and Communist, Marxist and Socialist Barrack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton is quickly heating up over UN Monitors from the OSCE observing our elections.

As attention to this battle intensifies the fangs are coming out and the real reasons the United Nations are in our back yard is starting to come to light!

Obama granting this OSCE “poll watching” group “full diplomatic immunity”, meaning they are above the law and not required to follow our state election laws speaks volumes of why they are in our country.

When groups like ACORN (True Vote) although defunct are still very active under another name, ACLU, NAACP, SEIU, Al Sharpton you know there is an agenda. It seems this UN/OSCE delegation which has now grown to 150 or so has turned from apolitical to partisan. Recent research has revealed that the constitutional voter ID laws are the fuel that is igniting their increased presence in Tennessee and the US.

It is evident that their continued and increasing presence at polling places all over the US is going to fan a possible revolution if Obama loses that will be preceeded with a massive deluge of lawsuits challenging our elections and they will have the strength of an international body at their backs. Mark my word it’s clear as crystal.

Please read the article below and visit the New American website for many more outstanding articles. It was so informative I wanted to keep my rants short.

Obama Backs UN-linked Election Monitors, but Texas Stands Firm
Written by  Alex Newman

http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/item/13415-obama-backs-un-linked-election-monitors-but-texas-stands-firm

As the national scandal over United Nations-linked “elections monitors” in the United States continues to grow after Texas threatened potential prosecutions, the international outfit deploying “observers” demanded that the Obama administration come to its aid. The U.S. State Department promptly claimed that the UN-affiliated monitors would have “full” diplomatic immunity. But in the Lone Star State, officials fired back and upped the ante: Don’t mess with Texas.

On October 23, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott sent a strongly worded letter to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) warning that its representatives could be prosecuted if they violate state law or are found within 100 feet of a polling place. Among the most serious concerns was the fact that the UN partner organization was working with discredited far-left radical groups to supposedly seek out conservative “voter suppression” schemes — mostly state laws aimed at preventing election fraud.

In a statement, the OSCE also said it would monitor “compliance” with unspecified “international obligations” supposedly applicable to the United States. The controversial organization, which includes as members the governments and dictators ruling Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, and other nations, responded to Texas with its own letter to the U.S. State Department warning against any efforts to “restrain” its personnel.

“The threat of criminal sanctions against OSCE/ODIHR observers is unacceptable,” complained Janez Lenarcic, chief of the OSCE’s Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) monitoring operations. “The United States, like all countries in the OSCE, has an obligation to invite ODIHR observers to observe its elections.” (Emphasis added.)  

The Obama administration responded to the controversy by purporting to offer the international “elections monitors” supposed “diplomatic immunity” — essentially claiming that they were above the law, even in Texas. The two monitors for Texas, scheduled to be deployed in Austin, are Conny Jensen from Denmark and Melanie Leathers from the United Kingdom, documents show. In an October 26 press conference, State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland claimed that “in general, we give them protected status.”

The spokesperson also claimed there were “no sovereignty issues” involved, emphasizing, as Texas’s attorney general did, that the OSCE obviously has no authority over the states it chooses to monitor. “They have said that they do not intend to violate any laws while in the United States,” Nuland claimed. “So we are going to let the conversations go forward between the OSCE and Texas and see how that goes.”

In the Lone Star State, however, officials did not take kindly to the international whining or the Obama administration’s response. “No UN monitors/inspectors will be part of any TX election process,” tweeted Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a Republican, in support of his chief law-enforcement officer. GOP U.S. Senate candidate Ted Cruz, a popular conservative who made opposition to UN schemes a key part of his campaign, also saluted Abbot for standing up to the scandal-plagued international outfit.  

The Texas attorney general, meanwhile, remained defiant despite State Department pronouncements and OSCE complaining. “UN-related vote monitors warn Texas: Don’t mess with us. My response: BRING IT,” Abbott tweeted in response. He also quoted Sam Houston saying: “Texas has yet to learn submission to any oppression, come from what source it may.” Following the tweets, Abbot also sent an official letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton laying down the law. 

“It appears that OSCE is under the misimpression that the State Department can somehow help its representatives circumvent the Texas Election Code. Texas law prohibits unauthorized persons from entering a polling place — or loitering within 100 feet of a polling place’s entrance — on Election Day,” the attorney general explained to Clinton. “OSCE monitors are expected to follow that law like everyone else.”

Of course, as Clinton already knows, Texas election laws govern anyone and everyone who wishes to participate in elections held in the Lone Star State, Abbott said. “The fact that representatives of the United States joined the U.S.S.R, Yugoslavia, Romania, and other OSCE member-nations in signing a document at a 1989 conference in Copenhagen has absolutely no bearing on the administration of elections or laws governing elections in the State of Texas,” he warned.

If the OSCE wants to visit Texas during the election, Abbott said the state would welcome the opportunity to educate its representatives about state elections — perhaps it could be useful to OSCE member regimes like the brutal communist tyrant ruling over Belarus. “But OSCE is not above the law and its representatives must at all times comply with Texas law when they are present in this state,” he added.

The 1990 OSCE governing document signed by the representatives of the U.S. government and cited by the international group in its pleas with the Obama administration is “legally irrelevant” in Texas and “will have no impact” on the way the state administers its election, Abbott pointed out. However, the attorney general still added that, even according to that agreement, observers are required to follow applicable law. In other words, the OSCE is making “false” claims.

In addition to misconstruing its own governing documents, in its letter to the Obama administration, the OSCE promised only to follow all “national” laws and regulations. “This statement may simply reveal that the OSCE is unfamiliar with our nation’s federalist system,” Abbott observed in his letter to Clinton. “On the other hand, it may reveal that the OSCE does not consider itself restrained by state law.”

In either case, Texas needs assurances from the OSCE that it intends to strictly comply with all state laws. So far, Abbott said, those assurances have not been forthcoming. There are other problems, too, however.  

“In addition to my desire to defend and enforce Texas election laws, I am also concerned that an unnecessary political agenda may have infected OSCE’s election monitoring activities,” the state’s top law enforcement officer explained, citing the international outfit’s objections to efforts aimed at preventing registration fraud as well as state laws requiring voter ID. “The OSCE may object to photo identification laws and prohibitions on felons voting — but our nation’s Supreme Court has upheld both laws as entirely consistent with the U.S. Constitution.”

Ironically, Abbott added, the OSCE’s U.S. election monitoring boss, diplomat Daan Everts, hails from the Netherlands, which requires that all voters present identification to help combat fraud. “Why the OSCE appears to now question voter identification laws in the United States is beyond reason. Perhaps it is just politics,” the letter stated. “Regardless, the OSCE’s perspective on Voter ID is legally irrelevant in the United States.”

Meanwhile, the attorney general also took the opportunity to blast the OSCE yet again for meeting with “plainly partisan” U.S. organizations. Among the American groups working with the OSCE are the NAACP, the ACLU, and assorted splinter groups like “Project Vote” formed after the taxpayer-funded, Obama-linked organization ACORN collapsed in disgrace amid charges of massive voting fraud.

In letters and meetings with the international monitors, those groups warned of alleged efforts by conservatives to “disenfranchise” minority voters. The OSCE promised to follow up on the half-baked accusations, drawing widespread criticism and ridicule across the country.

“This appears to reflect a concerted effort to politicize an initiative that was previously perceived as an international information exchange program,” Abbot wrote. “While Texas may welcome visitors from any nation or international organization who wish to learn more about the steps the State has taken to protect the integrity of state elections, we need not open our doors and accommodate an international effort affiliated with partisan organizations in the United States that wish to suppress electoral integrity.”

Of particular concern, Abbot said, was an organization known as Project Vote, which recently boasted that it was helping to advise the OSCE on what issues and jurisdictions to “monitor” this election. “In light of Project Vote’s history of voter registration fraud and its more recent failed attempt to enjoin Texas election laws that were enacted to prevent fraud, no legitimate international body would affiliate with Project Vote,” the attorney general wrote. “Consequently, OSCE’s affiliation with this dubious organization necessarily undermines its credibility and the independence of its election monitors.”

Abbott also took the opportunity to provide some constitutional education for Clinton and Washington, D.C., which seemingly view Texas and other sovereign U.S. states as mere provinces subject to the whims and dictates of the federal government. In the Lone Star State, at least, officials apparently know that the United States was founded under a system in which the central government has limited and specifically enumerated powers. 

“The United States Constitution authorizes the States to regulate the conduct of state and federal elections within their borders,” Abbott’s letter continues. “Unlike the unelected bureaucrats at the OSCE, our State’s leaders and decision-makers were duly elected by Texas voters. Elected members of the Texas Legislature enacted the Texas Election Code to ensure our State’s elections are free, fair, open, and reliable.”

Finally, the attorney general emphasized again, Texas’ election laws do not authorize OSCE representatives to enter polling places. If they do, there will be consequences. Nothing in any OSCE governing documents has any impact — legal or otherwise — on how elections are conducted in Texas, Abbott warned.

“If the OSCE does not wish to follow the laws that govern everyone else present in the State of Texas, including the voters who elect our State’s leaders, then perhaps it should dispatch its representatives to another state,” Abbot concluded. “In closing, I have a simple request: Please work with the OSCE to ensure they agree to comply with Texas law. If they refuse to do so, OSCE’s representatives may be subject to legal consequences associated with any violations of state law.”

Analysts and activists across the country promptly showered praise on the state of Texas and its officials for standing up to the controversial international scheme while protecting state sovereignty, constitutional values, and the rule of law. However, more than a few experts also warned that the UN and its affiliates were becoming increasingly threatening. If America hopes to maintain its freedom and sovereignty, it must continue to resist any and all efforts to impose or even legitimize purported international “authority” over the American people.

US Arms Trade Treaty: UN appoints Iran to key role in negotiating away your 2nd Amendment rights

BCNews note: Iran? Are you for real? Iran, with their lifelong stellar record on human rights has been put in charge of treaty enforcement that could eventually lead to us losing our guns and right to own them? Really? Is this the same UN that the Chamber of Commerce created several years ago? I’m sitting here with my tounge hanging out wandering what in the heck is going on? Why is the UN anywhere near our border with this bull?

Then I think again and it astounds me that we still give the Chamber of Commerce so much credibility in light of their Frankenstein type creation! Did anyone, even the Chamber think that they could create such an animal with such fangs. Then I think well everything the Chamber of Commerce does somehow points right back to the United Nations as if by design, as if they were trying to take over the world and replace her with some type of alternative plan. A plan so deviant even our neighbors couldn’t blame on the Chamber!

Where does it stop? When does someone say enough is enough? When does some brave soul say the UN has no right in our country so get the hades out!

Do we hand our guns over to a foreign entity at the behest of the Chamber that is in every community in the US and seemingly and well disguised as red white and blue as apple pie? Some are saying even if our senate repels this treaty our “gun info” will still be in the hands of the UN for global monitoring! Folks, better wake up! I have been told many times by many people “by golly if they come after my guns, then I’m gonna get mad” well, they are after your guns and will be real close to getting them as soon a July 27th, 2012.

Our two Senators in Tennessee Alexander and Corker cant seem to give anyone a straight answer when asked if they are going to vote on it or not! Senators this is a no brainer! This is the gem in the crown that keeps our nation and it’s people free! This is our second amendment rights! Please! What is so difficult about this.

A United Nations treaty on the trade of conventional arms could give enemies of the U.S. access to the records of American gun owners, say critics. (AP)
UNITED NATIONS –  A treaty being hammered out this month at the United Nations — with Iran playing a key role — could expose the records of America’s gun owners to foreign governments — and, critics warn, eventually put the Second Amendment on global trial.

International talks in New York are going on throughout July on the final wording of the so-called Arms Trade Treaty, which supporters such as Amnesty International USA say would rein in unregulated weapons that kill an estimated 1,500 people daily around the world. But critics, including the National Rifle Association’s Wayne LaPierre, warn the treaty would mark a major step toward the eventual erosion of the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment gun-ownership rights.

Americans “just don’t want the UN to be acting as a global nanny with a global permission slip stating whether they can own a gun or not,” LaPierre said. “It cheapens our rights as American citizens, and weakens our sovereignty,” he warned in an exclusive interview with FoxNews.com from the halls of the UN negotiating chambers.

The world body has already been criticized for appointing Iran to a key role in the talks, even as Tehran stands accused by the UN of arming Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s bloody crackdown on rebels. The Obama administration in 2009 reversed Bush administration policy by agreeing to take part in the talks. But in another exclusive interview with FoxNews.com, the top government official on the issue under President Bush says he’s seen nothing new to convince him the U.S. should be at the table today.

While the treaty’s details are still under discussion, the document could straitjacket U.S. foreign policy to the point where Washington could be restricted from helping arm friends such as Taiwan and Israel, said Greg Suchan, Deputy Assistant Secretary in the State Department’s Bureau of Political-Military Affairs from 2000 to 2007.

Suchan also highlighted ongoing concern that the treaty may end up giving foreigners access to U.S. gun-ownership records.

On that score, LaPierre, who serves as NRA executive vice president, warns that the “UN’s refusal” to remove civilian firearms and ammunition from the scope of the treaty amounts to a declaration that only governments should be gun owners.

But he revealed he was set Wednesday to tell the UN gathering that 58 U.S. senators had signed a letter saying that they would refuse to ratify any treaty that includes controls over civilian guns or ammunition.

Ratification by two-thirds of the Senate is necessary before an international treaty negotiated by the executive branch can become U.S. law. But the treaty could still go into effect elsewhere once 65 countries ratify it. Such a development could change the pattern of world arms transfers and reduce the U.S. share, which stands at about 40 percent of up to $60 billion in global deals.

The Bush administration opposed a 2006 UN General Assembly resolution launching the treaty process, but President Obama decided the U.S. would take part on condition the final agreement be reached by consensus — thereby giving any of the 193 participating states an effective veto.

The safeguard is insufficient for opponents of the U.S. participation, not least because UN talks invariably involve compromise.

“The administration swears they have a whole bunch of red lines, and they will block consensus if anyone crosses them,” said Suchan, now a government relations consultant as senior associate with the Commonwealth Consulting Corporation in Arlington, Va.

“But the dynamics of international negotiations are that once you get 90 percent of what you seek, you say, ‘Maybe there is a way we can finesse the final 10 percent.’”

A clause permitting arms transfers solely between UN member states would allow UN member China to object to U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, a non-UN member that China considers to be a renegade province.

This would be highly problematic for the U.S. at a time when Beijing is engaged in an unprecedented arms buildup.

Another fear is that Arab or other states critical of Israel may use any treaty language on human rights standards to argue against U.S. arms transfers to the Israeli government – much in the same way they currently use the UN Human Rights Council to repeatedly condemn Israel.

Suchan said U.S. arms trade law is seen as the global “gold standard” for regulating arms transfers, but doubted many countries would be willing to raise the bar that high. Instead, the treaty that emerges is expected to set a lower global standard – which Suchan said would have the effect of reducing Washington’s ability to press for voluntary arms embargoes against rogue states.

“We might want to urge a country to not sell arms to a state whose government is particularly odious,” Suchan explained.

“But that government could then ask whether the sale is prohibited under the Arms Trade Treaty – and if it is not, they would argue they are meeting the international standard.”

U.S. gun lobby concern focuses on the emphasis the treaty places on governmental – as opposed to individual – rights to guns, LaPierre explained.

“They’re trying to impose a UN policy that gives guns to the governments – but the UN doesn’t in turn make moral judgments as to whether these governments are good or bad,” he said.

“If you’re the government, you get the guns, if you’re a civilian, you don’t. But this will just end up helping evil governments and tyrants.”

For LaPierre, the emphasis he sees at the UN on governmental rights reflects what he believes is a wider international tradition that contrasts with the historical American emphasis on individual rights.

“The UN view is that governments – not individual citizens – ought to protect people,” he said, signaling that this principle permeates the draft that negotiators are currently working with.

LaPierre says the treaty that is likely to emerge will have the effect of squeezing individual gun owners in the United States and elsewhere by imposing on them an onerous collection of regulations.

“If they get this through, then what comes along is the institutionalizing of the whole gun control-ban movement within the bureaucracy of UN – with a permanent funding mechanism that we [in America] will be mainly paying for,” he said.

“The world’s worst human rights abusers will end up voting for this, while the Obama administration has not drawn a line in the sand like the previous administration did. Instead, it is trying to be a part of this train wreck because they think they can somehow finesse it. But, to me, there is no finessing the individual freedoms of American citizens.”

“No show” Obama and counsel in contempt for failing to appear in eligibility case

In Atlanta Georgia today Barrack Hussein Obama fails to appear in court after multiple warnings from Judge Malihi and the Secretary of State of Georgia warn him he will be ignoring the courts “at his own peril!”

Shortly after 8 am I arrive at 230 Peachtree street, suite 850. It was evident at first that if the fake president did show up with his attorney he would be well protected!

I stepped off the elevator and blue shirts were all over the place! Georgia State patrol, various building security and lots of people walking around talking in their sleeves! The Attorney General of Georgia was rumored to be in attendance and the extra security was well warranted!

It was evident that the theme of the added security was to be cordial! The gentlemen in blue were just that, nice and going out of their way to be nice and accommodating.

I was allowed to bring my camera in and one even said as he saw a small wad of my cash being emptied into the small bowl before being passed through said, “put that money back in your pocket, if the politicians show up they may take it from you! As I passed through the scanner he went on to say “you can’t pass through unless you say Go Dawgs”, I did so and we chuckled!

I slowly walk into a small room that was quickly filling with interested observers! The press setting up in the back, several reporters, cameramen making their way around the room taking pics and rolling video of the historical moment.

It was hot already, a little beyond my comfort zone but the anticipation of events outweighed my concern over the temperature of the room. A lady across the aisle from me was fanning with a newspaper to stay cooler and the click of the paper was becoming very familiar and a tad irritating! I regained focus and continued to observe the scurry in the room.

I sit down with my buddy Will Sturtevant in the 4th row behind the empty seats of Barrack Obama and his attorney Michael Joblonsky! A stir starts spreading around the room much like the scent from a burning incense stick ” will he show?” Will he fill the seat and bless us with his presence?

It became all too apparent that he was going to be a “no show” as time quickly passed. A few in the know began disseminating new that he was in fact a no show and the room relaxed and sighed a little.

0907, Judge Malihi calls all counsel for a side bar in his chambers! Although the content of that conversation was not revealed till later that afternoon with brunch at a Irish pub with Will and Van Irion. Van stated the judge wanted to enter into a “default judgement” which would have ended the case with a judgement against Obama and every one would have to go home even before it started. Van told me, “this is a familiar move by judges when you have the circumstances such as this, a no show!

He requests a default judgement and everyone gets to go home early, woo hoo!” Van was concerned as well as the others that not only did alot of people prepare many hours for this case but many people came from all over to see this case and they were here to see a hearing!”

He also went on to add that with all the evidence to be submitted it would be advantageous to put on record all of the evidence against Obama, to have a record of it, not merely mentioning it in a default judgement! This leads me to believe future cases can simply refer to these documents as being attached to an actual case building the case against Obama! Gentlemen, start your engines!!!

With the realization that Obama and his attorneys were not going to show up for a hearing the mood changed from “will we get to see the King squirm as hours of evidence is displayed sat to why he is not a natural citizen born in the US or perhaps an illegal immigrant with no traceable birth certificate or social security card a to “game time!”

Now that all the attempts by Obama to quash and dismiss the subpoena and hearing have failed and the fake President didn’t get his way, displaying to the courts he considers himself above the law and the Constitution the president decides to pull a “George Jones” and “no shows!”

I watched as the attorneys filed back into the room and all had agreed in the absence of the defendants they would shorten their delivery of evidence and their argument to around 30 minutes a piece! So at the 20 minutes before 10 am the hearing begins!

Van Irion takes the helm and begins his opening remarks and submission of vital pieces of evidence. As documented on the You tube video titled Obama eligibility hearing. He pulled several witnesses to the stand and questioned them with different items for submission to the courts. Fake birth certificates to Obamas own admissions in His book “Dreams of the father.

While Van was showing a short presentation with his well prepared board display on the meaning of the constitutional phrase “natural citizen” he began his closing remarks stating that he was disappointed with Mr Obama no showing and he should be held in contempt for his failure to appear, Judge Malihi abruptly told Van, interrupting his presentation, that as he was setting up his next statement to build a case against Obama for contempt the judge interjected that he was here to hear the evidence not pursue contempt charges at this time, at least that was what I took from the quick spurt of words.

In an after hearing lunch at Meehans over fish and chips van told me he was just about to to suggest that this was perhaps an impeachable offense. But we never go to that point but perhaps that will be pursued in the near future.

As the morning turned into marathon of data, the next attorney displayed his evidence and witnesses spike eloquently as the natural citizen case was building against the fake president, the Manchurian President!

As he finished with his presentation, Attorney Orly Taitz started, a tall blonde with a thick accent began her delivery with a video about Obamas signature on a school registry in Kenya where the fake president signed his name as Barry Sortero!

This was terribly interesting to me but was once again Judge Malihi told that this was irrelevant and that she make her point without the video! She turns to the crowd and starts speaking to them at which point the Judge asks her to address the court and not the crowd! She quickly realized this was going to be a case under great scrutiny as her voice began to crack with the anticipation that she was going to be held to the facts only which is what needed to be done adding only to the intensity of the moment!

As she was being reprimanded, a small group of attorneys exits out the back as the judge clamps down on the presenters of information!

There was a clear line in the room being drawn in the room that the first two cases were similar and the last speaker was more focused on the “birther issue” that has garnered much attention over the last year.

The delineating line that was established by the quick departure of the legal teams was the perception in the room by those left in attendance was the first two cases had their path and the last were reflective of another path, both very well presented but the difference apparent.

As the entourage exited the room and slowly filed down into the building corridor a few reporters along with staff of Bradley County News followed the attorneys and witnesses for a follow up question and answer session!

The tweets and Facebook messages started showing up on my phone! “Where is the Prez?” “Why didn’t he show?”

The fake president did not show and one attorney submitted the presidents itinerary for the day from the White House website and their was not a thing on it, completely empty! This led many in the courtroom the impression that Obama could have attended the hearing. It was reported the prior day that he would be in Las Vegas for the day!

The evidence is this! The president will go out of his way to make a concerted effort to go on multiple vacations with ease, play golf and basketball anywhere but when the “People of the US” call on him he no shows and is in contempt!

The fake president has spent millions of dollars to hide his records and has intentionally made it extremely difficult to gain information on who the person is that is sitting in the highest seat in the nation and arguably the Worl! Who is he? Who is this man? Where is he from? Who does he represent? Who are his parents? Why was he allowed to be certified by the RNC and the DNC? What is his purpose? Why are we allowing an undocumented person to inhabit the White House? There is a higher element at work here that even puzzles the best of them? Is this supposed to happen? Some pre-determined curse or the plan for the end to play out? Are we supposed to watch as it pans out in full view? I don’t have the answers but I can assure you it will reveal itself in the coming months and it will be ugly and sinister! I’m going with intuition and my gut here, mark my word!

Let me note that on the RNC/DNC certification it didn’t mention as it should he was constitutionally certified instead it just said certified! That was a wow moment in the courtroom.

I just witnessed history in the making? What happened today will make or break this country! We either have a constitution or not! We have a fake president that does not acknowledge the constitution or we have a constitutionally certified president! We as a civil democracy cannot have both! In a free America there is only room for us to be governed by strict adherence to the Constitution! Only when we get mixed up in the details and start destroying the foundations of our country do we see the opposite effect!

This president has made it no secret that he is not a fan of the constitution, even calling it irrelevant and outdated. We have a fake president that does not love this country and has spent many countless hours trying to destroy it!

This was never more evident than today when he flat out refused to obey the subpoena to appear and did an end around the Constitution!

There is only one president that would do what he did today and that is one that is not loyal to his country and has no allegiance or concern for its well being! He is afterall an undocumented, illegal immigrant and somehow has captured America with his spell and outmaneuvered the constitution and all it’s restraints our forefathers put in place to prevent this very action I have witnessed today!

Our forefathers, many years ago wrote the constitution to protect us from subversives such as this and put plenty of safeguards in place to prevent this hijacking of America by a subversive with many deep seated secrets that will only be revealed completely ath the “right time!” We now stand at the precipice of our collapse and are now asking the million dollar questions how and why did this happen! Our constitution was trampled upon today and it completely surprises me that we are not screaming in the streets today! Perhaps we are in the throws of Socialism or communism? Perhaps, I am enveloped and am simy not aware of it encompassing grip! Maybe the day has passed when the greatest country on Earth is no more! Have we slept one day too long!

When as a kid my grandma used to sit me on her lap and repeat to me! There does not have to be rhyme or reason or a method to the madness, just realize that it exists and confront the evil that permeates from any entity! We, child, I am afraid are seeing the collapse of our nation! A return to a Godless society pitted with the essence of evil!

The purposeful evasion of a sitting president to spend millions to hide his identity speaks volume of the sinister plan he ha for our country! Without the plan being revealed, you just know it aunt good! What is he hiding? I believe the reveal is certain in short time! This is bigger than we know! I am convinced he is in the White House for more sinister reasons than we can imagine!

So with another no show under his belt and another nose up to the American people we move forward with caution as “no show” Obama once again shows his true colors! A Marcist/Socialist with a definite plan to undermine and destroy out country! He can and will be held in contempt for his reckless activity! If we assist our elected officials with assuring them they must be also adherent to the guidelines place in that ole document and example we can set in place a standard with binds that cant be broken.

Can we put him in shackles and deport him out of the country for his contemptuous relationship with the court system? I don’t have the quick answer, but his boldness and his recent actions gives every implication to me that he believes you can’t! That people is the truest dilemma!

Put him in cuffs? Realistically, probably not! But he and anyone else that may occupy the White jouse ot an elected office must know that the possibility exists if you stomp on the constitution and no show a state court! The message must be clear, contempt and a blatant disregard for all things that are not American will not be tolerated inside this great republic! We no longer have the desire of another King George! One dictator in our American past was not tolerated by the American people.

Another arrogant, pompous and aristocratic King like personality will not be tolerated!

Judge whacks Obama over eligibility: The POTUS goes down to Georgia

Obama went down to Georgia and he was in bind and way behind looking for an election to steal! He came upon Van Irion sitting on a stump, he said boy let me tell you what! I’m the best election stealer in the world! I bet you this election box made of gold, Im the best there ever was!!! Round the mountain run boy run, devils in the white house with the election won! Your busy in the briar patch handing out dough…..I’ll bet you once you son of a buck, your butt will be in Georgia showing your true identity! Ok, that was a poor attempt at a Charlie Daniel classic! But, the POTUS OBAMA WILL BE MAKING HIS WAY TO GEORGIA THIS WEEK TO FACE OFF WITH VAN IRION! This is going to be fun!

WORLD NET DAILY REPORTS:

A Georgia judge has refused a demand from Barack Obama to quash a subpoena to appear at a series of administration hearings Jan. 26 at which residents of the state are challenging, as allowed under a state law, his name on the 2012 presidential ballot.

WND reported this week when Obama outlined a defense strategy for a number of state-level challenges to his candidacy in 2012 which argue that states have nothing to do with the eligibility of presidential candidates.

“Presidential electors and Congress, not the state of Georgia, hold the constitutional responsibility for determining the qualifications of presidential candidates,” Obama’s lawyer argued in a motion to quash a subpoena for him to appear at the hearings in Atlanta Jan. 26.

“The election of President Obama by the presidential electors, confirmed by Congress, makes the documents and testimony sought by plaintiff irrelevant,” the lawyer said.

Judge Michael M. Malihi, however, took a different view.

“Defendant argues that ‘if enforced, [the subpoena] requires him to interrupt duties as president of the United States’ to attend a hearing in Atlanta, Georgia. However, defendant fails to provide any legal authority to support his motion to quash the subpoena to attend,” he wrote in his order, released today.

“Defendant’s motion suggests that no president should be compelled to attend a court hearing. This may be correct. But defendant has failed to enlighten the court with any legal authority,” the judge continued.

“Specifically, defendant has failed to cite to any legal authority evidencing why his attendance is ‘unreasonable or oppressive, or that the testimony … [is] irrelevant, immaterial, or cumulative and unnecessary to a party’s preparation or presentation at the hearing, or that basic fairness dictates that the subpoena should not be enforced.’”

Hearings have been scheduled for three separate complaints raised against Obama’s candidacy. They all are raised by Georgia residents who are challenging Obama’s name on the 2012 ballot for various reasons, which they are allowed to do under state law.

It is states, usually through the office of secretary of state, that run elections, not the federal government. The national election is simply a compilation of the results of the individual elections within states.

The schedule for the hearings was set by Malihi of the Georgia state Office of State Administrative Hearings. In Georgia, a state law requires “every candidate for federal” office who is certified by the state executive committees of a political party or who files a notice of candidacy “shall meet the constitutional and statutory qualifications for holding the office being sought.”

State law also grants the secretary of state and any “elector who is eligible to vote for a candidate” in the state the authority to raise a challenge to a candidate’s qualifications, the judge determined.

Three different plaintiffs’ groups are lined up for separate hearings, including one represented by California attorney Orly Taitz. She had the judge sign a subpoena for Obama’s testimony, and Michael Jablonski, Obama’s attorney for the cases, argued that he should be exempted.

“Make no mistake about it. This is the beginning of Watergate Two or ObamaForgeryGate. I believe this is the second time in the U.S. history a sitting president is ordered to comply with a subpoena, and produce documents, which might eventually bring criminal charges to the president and a number of high-ranking individuals,” Taitz said.

She told WND that it’s been 40 years since any court issued such a ruling concerning a president.

Separately, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona told WND he also had gotten a subpoena to be at the hearings in Georgia. He said the goal apparently is to ask him about his Cold Case Posse investigation of Obama’s eligiblity, but he said since the investigation remains open, he wouldn’t be able to say much about it.

Citizens bringing the complaints include David Farrar, Leah Lax, Cody Judy, Thomas Malaren and Laurie Roth, represented by Taitz; David Weldon represented by attorney Van R. Irion of Liberty Legal Foundation; and Carl Swensson and Kevin Richard Powell, represented by J. Mark Hatfield.

Hatfield also had filed with the court a “Notice to Produce” asking for Obama’s documents and records.

He wants one of the two original certified copies of Obama’s  long-form birth certificate.

Also, required are medical, religious administrative and other records about Obama’s birth; passports, applications and related records; college and university applications; bar association applications and materials; details on the citizenship of Obama’s father and other documents.

Taitz had filed an opposition to the motion to quash, taking Obama directly to task over what many consider an important constitutional question – the eligibility of a presidential candidate.

“It is noteworthy, that [the quash request] comes on the heels of his extended 17 day Hawaiian vacation, which cost U.S. taxpayers 4 million dollars. Mr. Obama has earned a dubious distinction as a Vacationer in Chief, Tourist in Chief, Partier in Chief and a Golfer in Chief due to his endless vacations, parties and rounds of golf. Considering … it is not too much to ask for Mr. Obama to show up once at a hearing and present his original identification records, which were not seen by anyone in the country yet,” she argued.

Obama’s attorney, Jablonski, also had argued that the state should mind its own business.

“The sovereignty of the state of Georgia does not extend beyond the limits of the State. … Since the sovereignty of the state does not extend beyond its territorial limits, an administrative subpoena has no effect,” the filing argues.

Taitz’s supporters joined a discussion on her website, where she also solicits support for the expenses of the battles she’s confronting, judging that Obama is on the defensive.

“What a joke. He claims to be too busy performing the duties of the president of the United States. How many days of vacation has he taken? How many rounds of golf? If he is too busy to provide the documents that provide the basis for meeting the requirements of the office, then perhaps he better sit out the next four years,” said one.

Wrote another, “The election of President Obama by the presidential electors, confirmed by Congress, makes the documents and testimony sought by plaintiff irrelevant. … This is complete utter nonsense!”

In fact, a presidential elector in California brought a lawsuit challenging Obama’s eligibility at the time of the 2008 election and was told the dispute was not yet ripe because the inauguration hadn’t taken place. The courts later ruled that the elector lost his “standing” to bring the lawsuit after the inauguration.

Barack Obama
Irion said his argument is that the Founders clearly considered a “natural born citizen,” as the Constitution requires of a president and no one else, to be the offspring of two citizen parents. Since Obama himself has written in his books that his father, Barack Obama Sr. was a Kenyan, and thus subject to the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom, Irion argues that Obama is disqualified under any circumstances based on his own testimony.

Those who argue against his birth in the United States note that numerous experts have given testimony and sworn statements that they believe Obama’s Hawaiian birth documentation to be fraudulent.

It is that concern that also has prompted Arpaio to turn over an investigation of that issue to his Cold Case Posse. Its investigative report is expected to be released in the next few weeks.

The Georgia hearing apparently will be the first time among dozens of so-far unsuccessful lawsuits brought over Obama’s eligibility issue that evidence will be heard in a court. Other cases all have been dismissed over issues such as standing, without a presentation of the evidence.

There are similar challenges to Obama’s 2012 candidacy being raised before state election or other commissions in Tennessee, Arizona, Illinois, New Hampshire and other states.

Obama long-form birth certificate released April 27 by the White House
Top constitutional expert Herb Titus contends that a “natural born citizen”  is born of parents who are citizens. That argument also is supported by a 19th-century U.S. Supreme Court decision, Minor v. Happersett in 1875. The case includes one of very few references in the nation’s archives that addresses the definition of “natural-born citizen.”

That case states:

The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.

An extensive analysis of the issue was conducted by Titus, who has taught constitutional law, common law and other subjects for 30 years at five different American Bar Association-approved law schools. He also was the founding dean of the College of Law at Regent University, a trial attorney and special assistant U.S. attorney in the Department of Justice.

“‘Natural born citizen’ in relation to the office of president, and whether someone is eligible, was in the Constitution from the very beginning,” he said. “Another way of putting it; there is a law of the nature of citizenship. If you are a natural born citizen, you are a citizen according to the law of nature, not according to any positive statement in a Constitution or in a statute, but because of the very nature of your birth and the very nature of nations.”

If you “go back and look at what the law of nature would be or would require … that’s precisely what a natural born citizen is …. is one who is born to a father and mother each of whom is a citizen of the U.S. or whatever other country,” he said.

“Now what we’ve learned from the Hawaii birth certificate is that Mr. Obama’s father was not a citizen of the United States. His mother was, but he doesn’t qualify as a natural born citizen for the office of president.”
