Relentless Attacks
Ever since the 911 attacks our Congress is pursuing a relentless attack against our God-given natural rights and personal freedoms. Anyone who pays just a little attention will soon realize that Congress is building a Trojan Horse a piece at a time - and it's NOT for YOUR protection! They tell you that it is for our protection, but when you look at the details - it's nothing more than another power grab. These power grabs are incremental so you won't notice them. They're right there in front of us all, but most of us just don't see it. Why not?
Because Congress is lying to us! Politicians lie to us all the time. Recall, that we no longer have a two party political system in the USA. That died a long time ago. Sure, they call themselves Democrat and Republicans, but they have both been co-opted by Progressives. Be objective and look at what their policies are and what they each support. DEMS are further to the Left than the GOPs - but they are both leaning Left! In affect, we have one party with two branches! There is no Conservative Party any longer.
This is the main reason why we as citizens have rated this Congress with its lowest ratings in the history of keeping congressional ratings. Congress lacks integrity and honesty! Unfortunately that's our fault! We have ignored these changes because they have been subtle and have occurred over a long period of time.
Why We're So Gullible
We have all (or at least most of us) been raised to be truthful and not to lie. We feel guilty whenever we do. We find it difficult to believe that when someone looks you in the eye and lies to you, that they are insincere. You have trouble accepting the fact that they indeed are lying! We are always ready to give the benefit of doubt to a liar. (Sometimes even our own kids!) We want to believe them.
Thus, we are an easy push-over for a liar. Add to this that the politicians have their own agenda. They repeat their lies over and over until they stick. Sound familiar? (a Saul Alinsky tactic).
The Continuing Attack
Keep in mind that Congress recently renewed the Patriot Act and expanded it by adding more governmental powers against America citizens. The Patriot Act nullified the Bill of Rights! Next, Congress passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) (alias the Indefinite Detention Act) that allows the military to arrest US citizens at home or abroad! More attacks against liberties! And don't forget the Military Commission Act of 2006 which allows the President to establish a military commission at his digression to try "enemy combatants", (which now includes American citizens!). All of these "acts" marginalize US citizens and they destroy any rights under the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.
The Latest Attack
Congress is working on HR 3166 and SB 1698 which is known as the "Enemy Expatriation Act" or (EEA). This bill is sponsored by Senator Joe Lieberman (I, CT) and Charles Dent (R, PA). The bill gives the US government the power to STRIP AMERICANS OF THEIR CITIZENSHIP without being "hostile" against the United States. So you can be
stripped of your nationality for engaging in or supporting "hostilities against the United States of America. The word "hostilities" means any conflict subject to the laws of war but remember that the war on terror is rather ambiguous so that any action could be labeled as supporting "terrorism."
This is plain SCARY! The government can (without any trial) take away your citizenship and make you a person without a home country. Then they can treat you as a terrorist and hold you indefinitely!
Talk about the war on terror! This is unconscionable. What are they thinking?
Action To Take
HALT Congress from passing this outrageous legislation under the guise of OUR PROTECTION. AND, vote out of office any Congressional representative House or Senate who supported ANY of these Congressional "ACTS."
