In Response To: Obummer Confirms Conspiracy... (Watchman)
Thanks, Watchman. :)
What we're mostly seeing/reading on this is Gordon Duff's interpretation of Obama's memo.
Duff might be correct, of course, but his is not the only way to read that memo.
You'll recall that not so long ago, many voices were expressing alarm over an Executive Order that appeared to them to be setting the stage for martial rule.
Looking into it, however, we found it was only a minor extension or modification of an existing EO that had been on the books for a long time, to do with how government should address a bona fide national emergency situation.
Here's a copy of the current Obama memo:
-----
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release
November 21, 2012

Presidential Memorandum — National Insider Threat Policy and Minimum Standards for Executive Branch Insider Threat Programs
Memorandum for the heads of executive departments and agencies
Subject: National Insider Threat Policy and Minimum Standards for Executive Branch Insider Threat Programs
This Presidential Memorandum transmits the National Insider Threat Policy and Minimum Standards for Executive Branch Insider Threat Programs (Minimum Standards) to provide direction and guidance to promote the development of effective insider threat programs within departments and agencies to deter, detect, and mitigate actions by employees who may represent a threat to national security. These threats encompass potential espionage, violent acts against the Government or the Nation, and unauthorized disclosure of classified information, including the vast amounts of classified data available on interconnected United States Government computer networks and systems.
The Minimum Standards provide departments and agencies with the minimum elements necessary to establish effective insider threat programs. These elements include the capability to gather, integrate, and centrally analyze and respond to key threat-related information; monitor employee use of classified networks; provide the workforce with insider threat awareness training; and protect the civil liberties and privacy of all personnel.
The resulting insider threat capabilities will strengthen the protection of classified information across the executive branch and reinforce our defenses against both adversaries and insiders who misuse their access and endanger our national security.
Barack Obama
Yes, we could take that to be a signal that a current threat is present - but we'd have to "read between the lines" to obtain that meaning, because he's clearly not saying that directly.
On the other hand, it appears to be only a cover letter to accompany transmission of "Minimum Standards" for dealing with _potential_ threats and/or misuse of classified information, etc.

Obummer Confirms Conspiracy...

Interesting that Obummer himself has mentioned this conspiracy on his official website:
quote >>"Using surprisingly direct language, President Obama has officially confirmed this conspiracy.
Six days ago, the President of the United States, on his official public website, issued a warning about “government insiders” who were planning “violent acts” against the “government and the nation.”
Despite the public nature and seriousness of this announcement and the draconian measures alluded to in order to “mitigate” the threat, no member of the opposition party which usually jumps on any and every word the president says has mentioned anything.
Moreover, there has been a total press blackout>>"
: There are strong confirmations that one or more nuclear
: weapons, known to have been stolen but kept from the public
: to “prevent panic,” may well be deployed in American cities
: by extremist elements with probable ties to a foreign
: intelligence agency.

This scenario was the basis of the television show “Jericho”
: several years ago. However, this time there are real
: culprits and real motivations, both the overthrow of the
: government of the United States and the naming of Iran as a
: “scapegoat.”

: The plot has been tracked to groups within the Pentagon,
: several government agencies and wealthy and powerful
: extremist backers of Netanyahu and, in particular, the
: “Gulf Cartel” operating from Mexico that has penetrated
: nearly all levels of government, law enforcement and the
: military across the country.

: Using surprisingly direct language, President Obama has
: officially confirmed this conspiracy.

: Six days ago, the President of the United States, on his
: official public website, issued a warning about “government
: insiders” who were planning “violent acts” against the
: “government and the nation.”

: Despite the public nature and seriousness of this announcement
: and the draconian measures alluded to in order to
: “mitigate” the threat, no member of the opposition party
: which usually jumps on any and every word the president
: says has mentioned anything.

: Moreover, there has been a total press blackout on this press
: release, which is prominently displayed on the White House
: website. Those we have spoken with at the highest levels of
: the military and key intelligence and law enforcement
: agencies indicate they have never seen a statement of this
: kind and find it shocking.

All find it frightening and for good reason.
: Sources within the intelligence community have confirmed that
: key former military personnel, some employed by the
: government to provide security for nuclear facilities,
: others with training in the assembly and detonation of
: “special weapons,” are being sought and actively recruited
: by “militant extremists” who represent, for the most part,
: powerful international corporations.

: Though this group was initially tracked down through
: counter-narcotics investigations, their membership includes
: at least one major hedge fund, top law firms, major media
: players and even religious organizations.

: We keep returning to the White House warning: “…to deter,
: detect and mitigate actions by employees who may present a
: threat to national security… These threats include… violent
: acts against the Government and the Nation…”

: When all major media and political groups chose to suppress
: reporting of this threat, a press release that, normally,
: would have been turned against President Obama in order to
: label him a “wild conspiracy theorist,” this became more
: than real, it became genuinely terrifying.

: Rush Limbaugh and Fox News typically would have dedicated hour
: after hour of accusations, “the president is now a
: dictator,” or “Obama has gone insane.”

Instead, we have total silence.
: After 9/11, a controversy that divides Americans into those
: who follow the flood of hard evidence of a cover-up and
: demand justice and real retribution against those who bask
: in blindness and ignorance, one serious fact has escaped
: many.

: How can America, exhausted after losing two wars, increasingly
: aware that our news, even our history has been
: fictionalized and propagandized, be manipulated into
: blindly following a conspiratorial cabal after a “too
: conveniently timed” national disaster.

: The last election in the US was even more bizarre than the
: several that preceded it. Mitt Romney, predicted by many to
: win easily, lost by a huge electoral margin despite every
: imaginable attempt to rig the election from voter
: intimidating to hacking voting machines.

: Contacts within federal law enforcement indicate that Romney
: may well have faced arrest for a wide variety of charges
: tied to narcotics, money laundering and organized crime
: until investigations were shut down by the Bush
: administration after 9/11.

: The previous candidate from the same party was saved from
: prison through a secret presidential pardon and if tried
: based on direct accusations made by Colonel Ted Guy, would
: only now be considered for release from prison.

When you add this to the fact that nearly all top members of
: the Bush administration are unable to travel because they
: face criminal prosecution for war crimes and are actively
: evading arrest, the true nature of the relationship between
: a vast international criminal conspiracy and key players in
: America’s ruling oligarchy is more than obvious.

: Thus, when a threat of an attack on the “government and
: nation” is revealed, two things become obvious: 1. Only a
: nuclear attack, likely more than one location, could push
: America to the new war Israel wants and bully the American
: people into even more “police state” legislation and the
: total abandonment of what is left of democratic government.

: 2. News and entertainment have been systematically pre-staging
: such a move through highly fictionalized and propagandized
: “brainwashing” that is intended to make Iran the scapegoat
: for what President Obama has now revealed is actually an
: “insider threat” within the American government.

: Nukes, Lost, Stolen and “Misplaced” Now “in Play”
: As early as 1990, three South African nuclear weapons,
: purchased by Britain, three out of ten manufactured at the
: Armscorp Pelindaba facility, were stolen. The purchase of
: the weapons was authorized by Prime Minster Thatcher and
: handed by Dr. David Kelly, the murdered weapons scientist,
: and a young assistant, David Cameron, currently Prime
: Minister of Britain.

: False reports that Iraq had stolen these weapons made up the
: real “secret brief” used to justify the invasion of Iraq.
: Only later, in 2009, when one of these weapons was exploded
: by North Korea, did it become clear that there was an open
: market for nukes and that some of the players were
: considered “friends” of Britain, France and the US.

: In 1991, the US lost three more nuclear weapons in an air
: crash off Somalia, weapons believed to have been recovered
: and marketed by former South African Defense officials.

: The US mounted a massive recovery effort tied to these weapons
: in 1993 in Somalia and sustained considerable casualties.

: A movie was made about it, “Blackhawk Down.”
: In 2007, a religious cult within the US Air Force stole
: between 6 and 9 H Bombs and loaded them on a B-52 bound for
: “places unknown.”

: Not all of those weapons were recovered when the plane was
: forced down at Barksdale Air Force Base. The public was
: told a wild story of dozens of mistakes in mishandling
: nuclear weapons.

: Invented Terrorism
: There is substantial reason to believe that, in order to shift
: blame from powerful extremist groups in the US, with ties
: to drug cartels and multi-national organized crime, the
: “Global War on Terror” was begun and the non-existent
: organization, “Al Qaeda” was invented.

Historical record will prove that the US Department of Justice
: did, in fact, invent “Al Qaeda” in order to bring
: “conspiracy” charges against Osama bin Laden where there
: was absolutely no evidence of his involvement. We are
: speaking of the East Africa embassy bombings.

: President Obama, in his November 21, 2012 press release has,
: after all these years, finally admitted that the American
: government is deeply infiltrated with militant extremists
: who have used false flag terror to push their political
: agenda.

: In fact, the Bush 43 administration was almost entirely made
: up of militant extremists and, were it not for the
: political defeats of both McCain and Romney; organized
: crime would have had the military forces of the US as their
: “private army” for eight more years.

Ben Fulford Responds to Cottrell


Ben Fulford Responds to Cottrell
Posted By: Jordon [Send E-Mail]
Date: Wednesday, 28-Nov-2012 09:54:05
.
Mr. Michael C. Cottrell himself finally responds to my accusations of murder. In the interests of freedom of the press I will publish his response and below it I will put my reply.
Download FulfordResp121127
Here is my response: The sources for the information that Michael Cottrell was involved in murders are many and varied and include the recently murdered Dr. Michael Van de Meer previously known as Michael Meiring. Van de Meer was poisoned by an extract of the castor bean plant known to cause heart attacks. His murderers are linked to David Eisenhower. Before his assassination Dr. Van de Meer repeatedly told me about Cottrell’s involvement in the operation to steal the wealth of the Soviet Union. There were many murders associated with that campaign.
In addition, close colleagues and family of Christopher Story tell me Cottrell was present in the room when Story was fed the poisoned sandwich that killed him. They also say Cottrell was trying to use Story to get access to the Queen of England. It is true Story wrote some nasty and slanderous things about me but I was still a fan of his writing and believe that we journalists need to support each other when murderers target freedom of speech by killing us.
Other sources about Cottrell include former and present CIA and FSB agents who worked with Cottrell.
Cottrell himself contacted me last week through the P2 Freemason lodge to ask that “I call off my hit-men.” He can rest assured that no “hit-men,” have been sent after him.
He can also rest assured that so long as he agrees to appear before a South African style truth and reconciliation committee that he will receive a general amnesty for all his previous activities.
The reason I publicly accused him of being a murderer was to flush him and his fellow agents out of the woodwork. What I told the P2 lodge intermediary was that I would issue an apology or correction if Cottrell would personally contact me, which is something he still refuses to do. Why does he need to hide behind a lawyer? Why does he refuse to let me ask him personally about the allegations people have made about him?
I would also like to know who told him that “music journalist” Steve McClure had convinced me to snort a single line of cocaine. That information was passed by Cottrell to Christopher Story who then published it. This was part of an elaborate operation to paint me as an “insane drug addict.”
Another agent introduced by McClure was sent to me by the recently deceased “Ambassador Stevens,” with 70 kilograms of marijuana laced with mind destroying chemicals. He told me to introduce the yakuza or else I would be killed. He was introduced to a Japanese military intelligence agent pretending to be a yakuza. The Japanese agent said the marijuana was toxic and that the whole operation was a sting intended to destroy my mind, imprison and silence me.
The man who was sent to me began to help me after he realized all I was trying to do was to convince Asian power brokers to finance a swords-to-plowshares transformation of the military industrial complex. The agent, known “Alexander Romanov,” survived several subsequent assassination attempts but is still available to testify.
This marijuana was smuggled into Japan in the same yacht from the Philippines that contained the nuclear warhead used for the March 11, 2011 nuclear terror and tsunami attack against Japan.
Another agent, a former Japanese bike gang member by the name of Tenzan Nakai tried to trick me into drinking a glass of orange juice spiked with amphetamines so that he could film me drugged up.
The aim was to get very dangerous Asian secret society types who hate drug addicts to stop offering me their protection.
So Mr. Cottrell, please give me a call.

Sen. Collins: Rice played 'political role' in Benghazi response


Sen. Collins: Rice played 'political role' in Benghazi response

By Julian Pecquet - 11/28/12 12:43 PM ET

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) emerged from an almost two-hour meeting with Susan Rice Wednesday morning unconvinced by her explanation of her role after the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi and concerned about her role in denying security requests prior to the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Africa.
“I continue to be troubled by the fact that the UN ambassador decided to play what was essentially a political role at the height of a contentious presidential election ... by agreeing to go on the Sunday shows to present the administration's position,” the top Republican on the Homeland Security Committee said.
Collins's statement comes after three key Senate Republicans said Tuesday they were “more troubled” than ever after meeting with Rice, who had been seen as a front-runner to get the nod for secretary of State. The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations' apparent failure to win over any Republicans during her two-day visit to Capitol Hill has thrown that nomination into serious doubt.
Collins said Rice told her she ignored statements from Libya's own president linking the attack to al Qaeda-affiliated terrorists because she was relying on U.S. intelligence.
“I don't understand why she wouldn't have at least qualified her response” on the Sept. 16 Sunday shows. Rice said on Sept. 16 that the attack that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans appeared to have spun out of a peaceful protest against an anti-Islam video but that the intelligence was preliminary.
Collins also raised new questions about Rice's role in the 1998 embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, when she was then-President Clinton's assistant secretary of State for African Affairs. Republicans have blamed the Obama administration for turning down Stevens's requests for more security prior to the attack.
“What troubles me so much is the Benghazi attack in many ways echoes the attacks on both embassies in 1998, when Susan Rice was head of the African region for our State Department,” Collins said. “In both cases, the ambassador begged for additional security.”

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE AMERICAN PICTURE?

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE AMERICAN PICTURE?
What is wrong with this American picture....
where MILLIONS will cast their "vote" for
American Idol, "The Voice", and X-Factor
but will not take the time to learn about the
history of America and where we stand now!

This is NO JOKE. 


The "country" you THINK you have has been slipping
away for the last 100 years!  This is your time to show
that you do know what is going on.  Is that too much to
ask?  That Americans unite for our country.

PLEASE "wake up" before it is all gone!  SIGN THE TWO
petitions below and then send it your contacts (even those
on facebook).


DO YOU BELIEVE THESE WORDS?
Where in the course of Human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
~ Thomas Jefferson, 1776

Those are the words of Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence 1776 and are as true today as they were 236 years ago, and perhaps far more vital to the survival of this great nation and her people today.

There is no doubt or argument that America is in the most dire and urgent of situations she has ever seen. The only thing that stands between America and total collapse and invasion by foreign intervention is her people.

In a nation divided by social issues, race, faith, political ideologies and gender, by careful manipulation and design of those in power it is difficult to imagine a people united to one cause. There is however one cause, one great and irrefutable fact which binds us one to the other in America and around the globe; Freedom and Liberty. All men and women are indeed created equal; all are born with unalienable rights endowed by their creator; Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. All creatures great and small possess the same right to Freedom and Liberty; to be free of Tyranny and Despotism.

There is a great enthusiasm for the idea of secession from the out of control and unlawful federal government we find ourselves at the mercy of today and there are petitions to that end on the Whitehouse.gov site but is it really about secession?

No, none truly believe the overgrown and bloated federal government will dissolve the shackles of slavery so carefully placed on us.

It’s not an issue of secession it is an issue of Re-possession; Re-possession of that which has been stolen from us, our Freedom and Liberty. It is not separation we must declare but our RIGHT TO EXIST AS FREE MEN AND WOMEN! THE RIGHT TO LIVE AS FREE AND SECURE IN OUR LIBERTIES AS OUR FOUNDERS INTENDED.

DO YOU BELIEVE THESE WORDS?
Then as a true American, stand up for yourself, and sign the petitions...and then forward this to all you know.




Dwell in possibility.  ~ Emily Dickinson

Greetings and Salutations;

 Listen very carefully to the words of this song, if you can get past needing to hear a banjo or 'spoons' in everything. Folks are out plowing thru everything said by somebody in the web. Conspiracy stories are everywhere...mass confusion. There is no need for it, just because you can't decipher the players, be cool. All is in order. Time was always on our side. The losers can always be spotted by their bad behavior. As long as the old folks stuck to the plan, they'd take a shot of oxygen and do their jobs. Who knew, it would take so many D9's to keep the runway clear? Many folks lost their power and freedom in the last few weeks, you just didn't hear about it. There are many ways to skin this cat, with out making a public spectacle of it. No need for the chaos of getting the masses all tripping when it's all being handled. Below are some links to show you where the world is going, no longer happening behind the curtains. Change is upon us, now they 'fund' it. That makes you and I, mules, to spread the load out across the planet recreating the world we live in. I recommend staying close for a spell, now. Might find a surprise at your door. Everything ends and begins in this world. See ya 'out there'.

Consultations until the door bell rings.

Love and Kisses;

Blurbing Paula Broadwell


Blurbing Paula Broadwell

By Carol Felsenthal - 11/28/12 09:52 AM ET

In fits and starts over Thanksgiving weekend I read pieces of All In: The Education of General David Petraeus. As a nonfiction author who checked her Amazon page in the tense days after pub date, I looked at Broadwell’s soaring “best-sellers rank” when the story was in the headlines (110), but as it faded, I returned just now to Amazon to find the book with a decent — I’d love to have it — ranking of 3,952; decent but not best-selling.

And then I read the blurbs, offered by the likes of Tom Brokaw and Doris Kearns Goodwin, I’m assuming in the days before publication. In retrospect they’re hilarious; overflowing with praise — not surprising; a blurb wouldn’t be a blurb without hyperbolic acclaim — and, unfortunately for the famous blurbers, double entendres.

Here’s a sample, condensed by me:

"Gen. Petraeus is one of the most important Americans of our time, in or out of uniform.” — Tom Brokaw

“With superb narrative skill, Broadwell simultaneously provides an intimate look at Petraeus the man … ” — Doris Kearns Goodwin

All In is … informed by remarkable access to the man both on and off the battlefield." — Mark Bowden, author of Black Hawk Down

All In feels at times like we are sitting at his side in Afghanistan, reading his emails over his shoulder." — Thomas E. Ricks, author of The Generals, Fiasco and The Gamble

Report: Women sue Panetta over military’s combat ban


Report: Women sue Panetta over military’s combat ban

By Sterling C. Beard - 11/27/12 04:25 PM ET

Four women are suing Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, alleging that the Pentagon’s policy excluding women from combat roles is unconstitutional, according to a report in Stars and Stripes.
The lawsuit charges that the policy, which keeps women from serving in combat, limits their careers in the U.S. armed forces.
All four women have been deployed to Afghanistan, and two have been awarded Purple Hearts. One of them, Maj. Mary Jennings Hegar of the California Air National Guard, was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross after her helicopter was shot down in 2009.
“The ability to serve has very little to do with gender,” Hegar said, in the lawsuit. “It has everything to do with heart, character, ability, determination and dedication. This policy is a disservice to those women who put their lives on the line for their country.”
The plaintiffs, two of whom are Marines, also allege that a related policy that requires Female Engagement Team members to return to a forward operating base every 45 days to withhold them from missions further endangers their lives.
“To accommodate the policy, the women were forced to travel to and from the base on dangerous roads, and they were often taken out of crucial missions, sometimes for a week’s time,” says the suit.
The lawsuit comes in the wake of the military lifting a rule that prohibited women from living with combat units, and opening roughly 14,500 positions to women that were male only. 
Panetta also directed the services to examine ways to open more such roles to women.
More than 16,000 women are currently deployed in Afghanistan, according to Defense Department spokeswoman Eileen Lainez.
Pentagon spokesman George Little would not comment on the lawsuit, but defended Panetta’s record on women in combat as “very strong,” according to Stars and Stripes.
Little said the rules earlier this week to open combat roles to women were “merely the beginning, and not the end of the process,” the report added.
In addition to Hegar, the plaintiffs include Army Reserve Staff Sgt. Jennifer Hunt, Marine Capt. Alexandra Zoe Bedell, a reservist, and Marine 1st Lt. Colleen Farrell, an active-duty officer.
The women are joined in their suit by the Service Women’s Action Network, and are being represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU of Northern California and the law firm of Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP.

Passing the buck on Benghazi


Passing the buck on Benghazi

By Anne Penketh - 11/28/12 09:18 AM ET


  The Obama administration’s clumsy attempt to mollify the Republican opposition in the Senate to a possible nomination of Susan Rice as the next secretary of State has not only opened another can of worms on “Benghazigate” but may have fatally damaged her prospects.

Jay Carney, the White House spokesman, said yesterday there are “no unanswered questions” about Rice’s appearances on the Sept. 16 Sunday shows after the Libya attack and the talking points that she used, “provided by the intelligence community.” “Those questions have been answered,” he said after Rice and CIA acting director Michael Morell met privately with three key senators.

How is it possible to say this after the senators came out of the meeting saying they were more disturbed than before?

The exact timeline on who knew what and when has needed to be clarified urgently since the former CIA chief, Gen. David Petraeus, testified to Congress on Nov. 17 that he had always believed that the armed assault on the U.S. consulate — which killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador — was a terrorist attack. Rice has been accused of playing down the Sept. 11 attack for political reasons by blaming it on “spontaneous” protests linked to an anti-Islamic video.

This buck has been passed around so much that it’s making me dizzy. The administration seems to be pointing the finger at the intelligence community: In a statement issued after yesterday’s meeting, Rice noted that “the intelligence assessment has evolved,” and that the initial talking points of the intelligence community were “incorrect.” The bottom line remains: Who cut the references to terrorism and al Qaeda in the talking points used by Rice? In the latest version of the shifting narrative available today, we still don’t know for sure.

The senators said in a statement last night: “At approximately 4 this afternoon, CIA officials contacted us and indicated that Acting Director Morell misspoke in our earlier meeting. The CIA now says that it deleted the al Qaeda references, not the FBI. They were unable to give a reason as to why.” So do we now know for certain that it was the CIA and if so, did they act under political pressure?

Just as important are the questions surrounding Rice’s fitness for the job of secretary of State, as formulated by Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine). While the U.N. ambassador’s loyalty to the president is well-known, that fierce loyalty may be hindering her in taking independent judgments given her access to classified information in her current post.

Rice will get the opportunity to address Collins’s concerns directly today. Nine weeks after the Sept. 11 events, the lack of clear answers is astonishing.

President Obama refocusing our financial situation


President Obama refocusing our financial situation

By Armstrong Williams - 11/28/12 07:19 AM ET


I want to extend my congratulations to President Obama and the Democratic Party for being able to successfully shift the focus from fiscal responsibility to taxing the wealthy and entrepreneurial class. 

If we look at this situation purely on the surface, raising taxes on the job creators and the financially successful seems to be a viable solution, especially for the people who do not fit into those categories. Because of human nature, we are wired to think that it is right to “take his” and “not mine.”
 
Unfortunately, raising taxes on business owners and the wealthy does little or nothing to alleviate our rapidly approaching insolvency. The only thing this solution does is give us a “feel-good” instinct that we are trying to do something, when in reality we are just pushing off the issue at hand while it stays the same or gets worse.
It’s like a college student who procrastinates on a paper by doing laundry. While the student may have clean clothes at the end of the laundry cycle, the paper still needs to be written before deadline.
 
We will eventually be forced to deal with the real issue, be it Republicans, Democrats or independents. Like the college student, who will be held accountable by his professor for how well he does on his paper, the people will hold President Obama and the Democratic Party accountable for how well he fixes our financial situation.
 
The sooner we realize that our biggest problem is over-spending, as opposed to under-taxing, the sooner we restore our nation to a path of prosperity.


Update On Tim Turner




Upcoming Sovereign trial moved to Montgomery

The federal trial of a Dale County man who claims to be president of the republic of the United States of America will be moved to Montgomery for security reasons, according to court records.
U.S. District Judge Myron Thompson ruled this week that the federal fraud trial of James Timothy Turner, 56, will take place at the Frank M. Johnson Federal Courthouse in Montgomery in March of 2013.
Jury selection will take place at the federal courthouse in Dothan.
Thompson’s ruling does not cite specific security reasons, but does refer to a sealed letter from the United States Marshal for the Middle District of Alabama pursuant to the court’s “jury plan.”
In September, federal authorities charged Turner with using fictitious bonds to pay his federal taxes, obstructing the Internal Revenue Service and other federal tax charges. The indictment against Turner claims he taught seminars on how to file retaliatory liens against property belonging to government officials and others.
He has been held without bond since his September arrest.
Turner is believed to be a leader in the sovereign citizen movement, a collection of several different groups with varying beliefs about government authority. Many adherents to the movement believe they exist outside the authority of the government as it exists today.
The trial against another alleged Sovereign, Monty Ervin, was held in a similar fashion. Jury selection was held in Dothan earlier this year under heavy security. Jurors were then transported to Montgomery for his trial. Monty and Patricia Ervin were convicted of federal tax fraud charges.
While the letter referenced in Thompson’s ruling remains under seal, it is believed Montgomery’s updated federal courthouse with its modern security enhancements creates a safer environment for court members.
Jury selection is scheduled for March 18, 2013 in Dothan. The trial will be held immediately thereafter.
Turner is represented by Everett Urech of Daleville by court appointment.

Judgment is feeling or indicating that another person is making the “wrong” choice or a “bad” decision. Discernment is rooted in love and honor; for self and for others. Discernment is noticing that you, are not making that same choice for yourself. Discernment allows you to notice the varying choices being made, without the need to label another’s choice as good or bad; right or wrong. Deciding that something is not in your highest good is discernment. Determining if something is not in another person’s highest good is judgment; and that is beyond the scope of anyone's authority or responsibility; relative to free will and personal Sovereignty.

Words of Thomas Jefferson 1776

DO YOU BELIEVE THESE WORDS?
Where in the course of Human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
~ Thomas Jefferson, 1776

Those are the words of Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence 1776 and are as true today as they were 236 years ago, and perhaps far more vital to the survival of this great nation and her people today.

There is no doubt or argument that America is in the most dire and urgent of situations she has ever seen. The only thing that stands between America and total collapse and invasion by foreign intervention is her people.

In a nation divided by social issues, race, faith, political ideologies and gender, by careful manipulation and design of those in power it is difficult to imagine a people united to one cause. There is however one cause, one great and irrefutable fact which binds us one to the other in America and around the globe; Freedom and Liberty. All men and women are indeed created equal; all are born with unalienable rights endowed by their creator; Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. All creatures great and small possess the same right to Freedom and Liberty; to be free of Tyranny and Despotism.

There is a great enthusiasm for the idea of secession from the out of control and unlawful federal government we find ourselves at the mercy of today and there are petitions to that end on the Whitehouse.gov site but is it really about secession?

No, none truly believe the overgrown and bloated federal government will dissolve the shackles of slavery so carefully placed on us.

It’s not an issue of secession it is an issue of Re-possession; Re-possession of that which has been stolen from us, our Freedom and Liberty. It is not separation we must declare but our RIGHT TO EXIST AS FREE MEN AND WOMEN! THE RIGHT TO LIVE AS FREE AND SECURE IN OUR LIBERTIES AS OUR FOUNDERS INTENDED.

DO YOU BELIEVE THESE WORDS?
Then as a true American, stand up for yourself, and sign the petitions...and then forward this to all you know.





Dwell in possibility.  ~ Emily Dickinson

What does love mean?


What does love mean?

Some fine thoughts here...
Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is worth it.

Touching words from the mouth of babes.



A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds,

'What does love mean?'

The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined

See what you think:
'When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore.. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love.'

Rebecca- age 8



'When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.
You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.'

Billy - age 4



'Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.'

Karl - age 5



'Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.'

Chrissy - age 6



'Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.'

Terri - age 4



'Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.'

Danny - age 7



'Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that.
They look gross when they kiss'

Emily - age 8



'Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents
And listen.'

Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)



'If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate, '

Nikka - age 6
(we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)




'Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it every day.'

Noelle - age 7



'Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.'

Tommy - age 6



'During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling.

He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore.'

Cindy - age 8



'My mommy loves me more than anybody
You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.'

Clare - age 6



'Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.'

Elaine-age 5



'Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford .'

Chris - age 7



'Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.'

Mary Ann - age 4



'I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.'

Lauren - age 4



'When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.'
(what an image)

Karen - age 7



'Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross.'

Mark - age 6



'You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.'

Jessica - age 8
And the final one

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.

Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,

'Nothing, I just helped him cry'



When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out that God is all you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! All you do is simply say the following small prayer for the person who sent you this.

Heavenly Father, please bless all my friends in whatever it is that You know they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of Your peace, prosperity and power as he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with You. Amen.


Then send it on to five other people, Within hours you caused a multitude of people to pray for other people. Then sit back and watch the power of God work in your life.

P. S. Five is good, but more is better.
God Bless You!


Lincoln: The Movie


Subj: Lincoln: The Movie 
Lincoln: The Movie
As I walked away from the movie, an older man behind me whispered to his friend: “that movie should have come out ten years ago. What a needed story for our time”. Needed? I’m not so sure. But the timing was impeccable. With the recent talk of frustrated citizens storming the White House petition website demanding the allowance of secession http://dailycaller.com/2012/11/14/white-house-secede-petitions-reach-660000-signatures-50-state-participation .
Perhaps this movie, which portrayed the closest the United States has ever come to a break up, was reinforcement of “unity above principle.” A disturbing political tendency that haunts our current political climate. “Uniting” together as one nation in “times of trouble” has been the public goal of leaders, not only in the American narrative, but throughout countries worldwide, including and especially those countries considered to be overseen by tyrannical or dictatorial leaderships. http://reformedlibertarian.com/2012/09/11/questioning-the-united-we-stand-sentiments/
The Lincoln movie was everything I expected it to be and more. Lousy historical scholarship, a sense of positive bubbling emotion for one of our country’s worst presidents, and a praiseworthy cast. Tommy Lee Jones was outstanding as a supporting actor and, in my opinion, stole the show. Sally Fields too did well in portraying the wife of President Lincoln, a role that demanded her to be a frustrated and constantly ill woman, full of contradicting and bi polar emotions. Of course Daniel Day-Lewis was a spectacular choice for the seemingly depressed, yet always thoughtful President who faced a unique crisis in American history. One might have been left, at the end of the two and a half hour movie, feeling rather frustrated with the South and their ever-so-racist ways. But glad with all the hard work that Lincoln did in his second term on behalf of the slavery issue.
Unfortunately however, history tells a different tale about the Lincoln we have learned to cherish in our propaganda ridden secular schools. Lincoln, according to Thomas Dilorenzo, was a master politician. Murray Rothbard described a politician as a liar, conniver, and manipulator.
In 1832, Lincoln begins his career as a politician with a bang, saying things like:
“I presume you all know who I am. I am humble Abraham Lincoln. I have been solicited by many friends to become a candidate for the legislature. My politics are short and sweet, like the old woman’s dance. I am in favor of a national bank…in favor of the internal improvements system and a high protective tariff”.
Central banking, corporate welfare, high taxation; portrayed as an “old woman’s dance”. The perfect and masterful politician indeed.
What of his views on slavery? In Lincoln the Racist, Dilorenzo, shows that Lincoln was “a man of his time”, that is, he consistently stated his belief that blacks are “inferior”, not to be seen as “socially and politically equal”, unqualified to “intermarry with white people” or “hold office”, and perhaps saddest of all, that “America was made for the White people and not for the Negroes”. A very different portrait than the Lincoln of Hollywood who went out of his way to talk to the black soldiers and the black maid that worked in the White House. Lincoln at one point in the movie said, “Slavery bothered me as long as I could remember”. Yet historically, we have only indication of the opposite sentiment.

Lincoln’s Greatest Failure

Rethinking the Civil War

One of the most important aspects of the theatrical emotion that was stirred by the modern capabilities of contemporary cinema was the yearning that the audience had to see Lincoln succeed. This dangerous ability that movies have on the citizen’s understanding of history has been utilized time and again. At one time fiction novels such as Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle persuaded the people. Now it is movies. Take a child without an opinion into the movie Lincoln, and out he will come with a new childhood hero and favorite president.

The entire movie was one big thrust for a new era of Lincoln worshippers. For those of us who have already discovered and developed our opinions on the big-government, big spending, high taxing, anti-Constitution President Lincoln, there were a wonderful number of opportunities to practice the skillful act of eye-rolling. For instance, Hollywood Lincoln’s drive and passion for peace is laughable. On the contrary, whereas the South desired peaceful secession, Lincoln gave them an ultimatum: rejoin the Union or suffer Union attacks. Lincoln’s dream of a consolidated Federal Government (which he was successful in achieving) was the primary reason the south wanted out, and the primary reason Lincoln needed a war to keep them in. Slavery was never the focus.


At one point in the movie, Lincoln expresses the reason behind his emancipation proclamation as a military-time order. He says that he was not sure if such a power was constitutional, but since he needed the power, he took it. Such is the nature of the Lincoln presidency as a whole. From banishing a congressman who disagreed with him (and exiling him to Canada) to closing down newspapers (destroying the freedom of the press) to suspending the writ of habeas corpus (by setting up military tribunals) to enacting a “boots on the ground” campaign in the peaceful South, it seems that in many ways, when Lincoln needed a power that was not granted to him by the Constitution, he grabbed at it. Rule of law? Not in Lincoln’s world.


For a split second in one scene, there was a portrait of President Andrew Jackson on the wall. This man, a stalwart of the Old Jeffersonian Democrats, was everything Lincoln was not. Anti-central bank, anti tariffs, and pro State’s rights. I find it amusing that, not only was Jackson hanging there in Lincoln’s office, but just less than a half hour later, two people collide and a number of “Greenbacks” (Lincoln’s paper money) fall to the ground. Jackson would have been fuming. He had killed the bank. Lincoln gave it a new life.


The southern “traitors” and “rebels” were portrayed as bitter racists. Perhaps they were. Not all of them mind you, but racism in the south, just like in the north, was a sad reality of the day. But while this was so, it is harmful to today’s liberty movement that, when the case for “natural law” was declared in the House of Representatives during the movie, it was used as a defense against the freedom of the black man. Connecting racism with natural law theory is a distortion of not only the admirable theory, but also of history. One can only think of the abolitionist natural law theorist Lysander Spooner who, while bitterly against the concept of slavery, was also consistently an opponent of the Presidency of Abe Lincoln and Lincoln’s war.


The movie was largely centered around the passage of the thirteenth amendment, which abolished slavery in the United States. This is important to note because Lincoln’s famous Emancipation Proclamation actually freed nobody, as it only applied to those specific areas that had declared secession. The “proclamation” was actually so specific that, it exempted those southern places that were under union control. In other words, the Emancipation Proclamation effectively did nothing. Except, perhaps, later gave ammo to historians a hundred years later in their fictional tales of Lincoln as liberator. Even so, with the movie giving legitimacy to the unfounded notion that Lincoln was a warrior on behalf of the 13th amendment, history again was distorted. Lincoln had opposed passage of the 13th amendment for long into his career, until northern abolitionists were able to twist the political arm of Lincoln, so that he would support their efforts. Lincoln was not a 13th amendment supporter.


In a correspondence with General Lee of the South, Lord Acton, the famous Catholic philosopher (“power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely”) noted this:
“Without presuming to decide the purely legal question, on which it seems evident to me from Madison’s and Hamilton’s papers that the Fathers of the Constitution were not agreed, I saw in State Rights the only availing check upon the absolutism of the sovereign will, and secession filled me with hope, not as the destruction but as the redemption of Democracy”.
The war was over the Southern right to secede and the Southern right to nullify Union laws. Lincoln wanted a stronger Federal Government. The South said “no” and left. Lincoln would hear nothing of it. He was the first President of the newly formed Republican Party, which was the resurrection of the nationalist Whig party, the crusaders on behalf of Henry Clay’s “American System” (centralization, protectionism, and mercantilism). Today, Lincoln is paraded as a hero of the abolitionist movement. But, not only was Lincoln no abolitionist, the slavery issue was secondary to that of the rights of States to determine their own way. But, in this post-Lincoln world of ever increasing centralization and power grabbing, Lincoln must be seen as a hero. And anybody advocating for a strict reading of the tenth amendment, must be rendered both a racist and an anti-American. A rebel, as it were.

But maybe the true rebels are those who refuse to honor the American way of private property and the rights of the States to secede if DC becomes too tyrannical. Maybe Lincoln was the rebel. The progressive. The one who had no business doing what he did and starting a war to get his way. But alas, the American society praises him and continues to pay tribute to a dictator.


Was the man behind me in the theater correct in saying that this movie was “needed”? I don’t think so. The Lincoln myth was set in stone long ago. The viewers did not need more Lincoln propaganda thrown their way in order to support the status quo.


It was a decent and entertaining movie. I liked the political humor and the characterizations of the congressional battles. It held my interests. But do your homework before and after. Lest you too become enthralled by the emotion of Hollywood Lincoln.
