Election Decision

I have two obligations to natures creator. First, to understand natural law, and second, to obey it. Natural law is the foundation of my existence that I must build on to insure my survival into the future.

According the code, imbeded in natural law, and to insure the enforcement of that law, it becomes necessary, within the bounds of a constitutional republic, to select the best candidates to secure the inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Hence, I have a moral obligation, to myself, to choose the best possible candidates to protect and ensure those rights are secured.

Nobody tells me what to do, and I have a propensity to listen to nobody because natural law gives me agency, and no one should have a legitimate objection if I choose to be a self responsible producer of values as a vehicle to fulfill the purpose of my life; to be happy. But anybody and everybody seem to think they have a right to tell me how to run my live, so
I petitioned anybody and everybody for redress because things have been in opposition to these natural laws, and found it unacceptable how most anybody and everybody has been responding to my petitions. Therefore I have a moral obligation to withhold support for anybody and everybody, and will be voting for nobody this election.

If you don’t agree with my position that’s your problem, because nobody tells me what to do, and that is what works best for me. I am accountable to nobody because existence exists, nobody created it...and unless you would care to argue that existence does not exist, I am accountable to nobody, who organized existence to create the world in which we inhabit.

Nobody’s perfect!

Free To Fight Another Day

Another lion is our of the cage. Al Thompson is out of jail, and back at his weblog.

Too many in the patriot movement are going into courts wanting to argue their points when these courts won't hear it and can't hear it and the only remedy is simply shifting the burden of proof. It still comes down to the basics. We all are born with rights that come from God and not from any man-made document of law. We must make sure that when we are in the courts that we secure our rights at all costs.

We also cannot stand by while our friends take the hit and we all do nothing but whine about it. We all need more preparation in how to survive trouble when it comes.


Stand on the truth and then let God do the rest.

Know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Give them enough rope, and eventually they will hang themselves. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

Well done Mr. Thompson!

Two Days Left - Will Be Leaving the Antivilization

It’s been just a few days over a year since I began this blog. On October 17, 2003, I posted this entry, and most of what I have posted since that time has been and effort to support that entry.

After writing that article, I showed it to several people only to find that most had no clue what I was talking about. I doubt anything has changed all that much since that time, and most would still not understand the implications of what I was writing about. The plans of the parasitical elite ruling class continue to move forward, this nation continues to be destroyed from within, people continue to cling to the false hopes of paper money and refuse to acknowledge the coming economic disasters that are about to ensue, unaware of who it is pulling the strings. In a few days, this nation will purportedly vote for a leader that will continue to serve the parasitical elite. Nothing will change, and millions will die.

Several days ago, on 10/25/04, I posted this article from the New American, which refers to the same issues I linked to last October17th, but I don’t thing anyone made the connection. I don’t believe a single individual read this last weblog entry. The more thing change, the more they stay the same.

Today I was searching for a quote from Mikhail Gorbechev in which he stated that President Bush should be moving to initiate the Kyoto protocols. His comments served to verify this ploy to destroy the industrial base of the United States. Today, we are being ruled by people who have vested financial interests in the profits generated by oil, not for the general welfare of their country. It is greedy corporate capitalism at its height of insanity. These people are being led around by the tail, and the carrot used is paper money. How dumb is that? Don’t they know that throughout history there has never been a paper money system that has NOT failed?

Several days before that, on 10/20/04, I posted a link to the website and weblog for George Soros, and I agreed that there must be a change, but that John Kerry was not the man that would change anything for the better. I really didn’t know that much about the man in the first place, but common sense served its purpose to warn me against listening to this individual. While searching for the quote from Gorbechev, I came across this little ditty:

When I say powerful, I mean just that. These people are coming at us from all sides. I give you one George Soros – a speculator who admits to lining his pockets by bringing down the economies of several nations. Soros has poured millions into the movement, working with his fellow Marxist, Mikhail Gorbechev, the granddaddy of the global warming hoax. http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/3/27/155727.shtml

Still thinking about voting for Kerry? Maybe George will throw you a few scraps on you way to the food line.

Well, that about it for this weblog. I have been planning for some time now to take it down, but I am trying to decide if I should leave what I have posted, and just quit spending my valuable time trying to get anyone else to realize that the ark is sinking. I don’t think the façade will continue to hold back the water much past the November Elections. The day will come when people will finally wake up, but it will be in the midst of economic depression, and the NWO agenda has progressed so far that the only one who will be able to turn the tide is God himself, and I really wonder if he has all that much hope for all his stupid children. The elite want an 80 percent reduction, but if god gets his way, it will likly be more like 99 percent.

Wanna know who is really running this little dog and pony show? Go here. I’ve been trying to warn people for 6 years now, but the vast majority are deaf. Everyone likes to whine and cry about how messed up things are, but when it comes to solving the problem, they all become as ignorant as crack addicts, and go about their business looking for their next fix. Deaf, dumb, and blind cattle waiting to be led to the slaughter. It’s sad that so many will have to die.

Let’s see, I have two more days before I will be leaving. I’ll try to make one final weblog entry, but I’m not sure if I will have the time, and I’m not sure if I will be returning to this place. If allowed, I will return to this physical location. I may not have a choice, but I will not be returning to this anticivilization. Instead, I will be returning to a world that is only ten seconds away; a place I have been, and a place I long to return.

Man is that he might have joy. The purpose of life is to be happy. That is impossible in an anticivilization led by a parasitical elite ruling class, so I will be leaving that world behind. I don’t know why I even bothered to come back in the first place, except I though maybe I could help. Apparently I was mistaken.

An Awesome Responsibility

For those of us who also understand our accountability to our Creator, the myth of human-caused global warming raises a much larger issue. Thomas Jefferson framed this issue more than two centuries ago when he wrote: "Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever."

The elegant violence of a thunderstorm offers a sobering reminder of the abrupt limits of man’s power to affect nature. As stewards of God’s creation, mankind has a responsibility to preserve the Earth — which is best done by expanding human freedom, rather than turning power over to a central governing elite.

Americans today permit the slaughter of millions of children each year by abortion. We are also complicit in the deaths of two to three million children each year in underdeveloped countries by denying them the protection from malaria that DDT provides. Will we now allow an even greater act of technological genocide?

Will we participate in a thinly disguised program of world "population reduction" through United Nations constriction of the use of coal, oil and natural gas? Are we to allow the deaths of tens of millions of people from yet another American-supported genocidal action? How much longer do we think God will stay His hand from administering the justice Jefferson feared — unless we do something to stop this pseudo-environmentalist madness?

Enemies of Humanity

The enemies of humanity are, however, not content. They want to move technology another step downward and energy production another step backward by diminishing even the use of hydrocarbon energy. To accomplish this, they have contrived three lies. These are the lies of hydrocarbon shortages, human-caused global cooling, and human-caused global warming. Their allies in the press, government, foundations and business have heavily promoted these lies over the past several decades.

Re: Elections

BLUE BLOOD:
Kerry is related to King Harald
TV2 Norway April 22 2004

The Democrat’s president candidate John Kerry is related to King Harald of Norway, and according to one expert, royal relation ensures that he will win the election this fall.

Article here.

A personal message from George Soros

George Soros Has a website here. He also has a blog here.

George says President Bush is endangering our safety, hurting our vital interests, and undermining American Values….

Why should you listen to me? Not because I have a lot of money -- although it helps to get my message out -- but because I have an unusual background and experience that may help throw some light on our predicament.

It is hard to believe that all the accusations I have leveled against President Bush are true. I wish they weren’t because then we wouldn’t be in the predicament in which we find ourselves. There is only one way out. To change leadership and change direction. Fortunately we have a credible – and to me attractive – alternative .I have known John Kerry personally for many years and I think he will make a very good president.

Will the American people listen to this external authority and elect the lesser of two evils? While I agree that we need to change leadership and change direction, I do not agree that Kerry, a member of the most powerful secret society, Skull and Bones, is the answer. Perhaps he is the answer for George Soros and his paper money, but not for America, or the world for that matter. In my opinion, the whole system is broken beyond repair, and must now be replaced with individuals who will honor their oath to the Constitution if our civilization is to survive. We are sailing in uncharted, and will continue to do so with either Bush or Kerry at the helm.

I would welcome your comments at georgesoros.com . I am eager to engage in a critical discussion because the stakes are so high.

Devvy Kidd writes:

The mere thought of Kerry becoming President of this Republic makes me ill. Nothing could be more harmful for this nation than to put these two John's (Kerry & Edwards) in higher office. Kerry adheres to Marxist ideology and Edwards, in addition to being just plain smarmy, hasn't had an original thought pass between his ears in decades. However, the electronic ballot machines will make the next selection for the power brokers who control America's politics and our very lives, so whatever they decide after the battles that are sure to come over vote fraud, is what we'll get.

I have an inclination to go with Boétie on this one…

"I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break into pieces."

IRAQ'S NEW PATENT LAW: A DECLARATION OF WAR AGAINST FARMERS
by Focus on the Global South and GRAIN
October 2004

Full Article here.

Excerpts…..

When former Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) administrator L. Paul Bremer III left Baghdad after the so-called "transfer of sovereignty" in June 2004, he left behind the 100 orders he enacted as chief of the occupation authority in Iraq. Among them is Order 81 on "Patent, Industrial Design, Undisclosed Information, Integrated Circuits and Plant Variety."

What it will actually do is facilitate the penetration of Iraqi agriculture by the likes of Monsanto, Syngenta, Bayer and Dow Chemical - the corporate giants that control seed trade across the globe.

The new patent law also explicitly promotes the commercialisation of genetically modified (GM) seeds in Iraq. Despite serious resistance from farmers and consumers around the world, these same companies are pushing GM crops on farmers around the world for their own profit.

In some countries like India, the 'accidental' release of GM crops is deliberately manipulated [6], since physical segregation of GM and GM-free crops is not feasible. Once introduced into the agro-ecological cycle there is no possible recall or cleanup from genetic pollution [7].

Pushing for these "reforms" in Iraq has been the US Agency for International Development,
which has been implementing an Agricultural Reconstruction and Development Program for Iraq (ARDI) since October 2003.

The goal of ARDI in the name of rebuilding the farming sector is to develop the agribusiness opportunities and thus provide markets for agricultural products and services from overseas.

End of excerpts.

Sewing the seeds of destruction; end notes…..

USAID assists Iraqis in reconstructing their country by working with Iraq's interim government. USAID programs are implemented in coordination with the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund

Can you say NEW WORLD ORDER? It's like traveling down the wrong road and burning the bridges behind us!

One of the principal but little known operations of the Rockefeller Foundation has been its techniques for controlling world agriculture. Its director, Kenneth Wernimont, set up Rockefeller controlled agricultural programs throughout Mexico and Latin America. The independent farmer is a great threat to the World Order, because he produces for himself, and because his produce can be converted into capital, which gives him independence. [Whale]

The Children of Iraq


"There is one crime against humanity in this last decade of the millennium that exceeds all others in its magnitude, cruelty and portent. It is the US-forced sanctions against the twenty million people of Iraq... If the UN participates in such genocidal sanctions backed by the threat of military violence --and if the people of the world fail to prevent such conduct -- the violence, terror and human misery of the new millennium will exceed anything we have known."

Trilateral Commission: Spinning a Larger Web




What you don't know about your enemy, can and will be used against you, and may even cost you your soul.

"The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth."
- H. L. Mencken

Editors note: If, when someone offers you this information, you are the type of individual that will shut your eyes, close your ears, or change the subject, you need not read any further. Escape here.

The following are excerpts from The New American:

A great deal can be learned from knowing who initiated this new organization, who had sufficient clout to gather into its fold the movers and shakers of these major industrialized regions, and who supplied its finances. The name of David Rockefeller figures in every aspect of the TC. Because nothing this man has touched in his 80-plus years has been good for national independence or personal freedom, it would be ridiculous to expect the TC to be anything but another Establishment-spun web to entrap mankind.

Rockefeller is the consummate advocate of world government whose vast wealth and influence — along with that of his family — have launched, promoted or funded virtually every 20th century step on the way to global tyranny. It was the Rockefeller Foundation and allies at the like-minded Ford, Kettering and other money spigots that fueled TC from its outset.

From only 187 members at its launching, Trilateral membership in mid-2004 has swelled to 379 bankers, politicians, corporate bigwigs, media heavyweights, labor leaders, academics and even some clergymen. With three original regions, it has branched out and now claims adherents from all parts of Europe, a Mexican contingent added to the North American group, a restructured Japanese section that now includes virtually every Asian country, and a new coterie of go-along-to-get-along world planners listed under the heading "Participants from Other Areas."

If the subversive agenda advanced by these individuals and their organizations is not more widely exposed and opposed — their long-sought-after goal of world government may indeed become a reality.

Signs at the Fork in the Road

Below are some of the road signs I saw, as I approached that fork in the road, that identify the road to fascism......

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
--Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)


"History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible, to maintain their control over governments, by controlling money and its issuance."
- James Madison -

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."
- Thomas Jefferson

"All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in the Constitution or confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation."
--John Adams

"I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations."
-James Madison

"Of all the contrivances for cheating the working classes of mankind, perhaps none is so effectual as that which deludes them with paper money."
-Daniel Webster

"The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be resolved sooner or later is The People v. The Banks."
-Lord Acton: Lord Chief Justice of England, 1875

"The One World Government leaders and their ever close bankers have now acquired full control of the money and credit machinery of the U.S. via the creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank”
-Curtis Dall, from My Exploited Father-in-Law, He was Franklin D. Roosevelt's son-in-law.

We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizen may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force.
-Ayn Rand

"For if human liberty is to survive in America, we must win the battle to restore honest money. There is no more important challenge facing us than this issue - the restoration of your freedom to secure gold (and silver) in exchange for the fruits of your labors."
-Howard Buffett, four-term Nebraska Congressman (R) and the father of Warren Buffett

"The Trilateral Commission is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States. The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power political, monetary, intellectual and ecclesiastical. What the Trilateral Commission intends is to create a worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the nation states involved. As managers and creators of the system they will rule the future."
- Barry Goldwater l964 from his book: With No Apologies

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements, arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland; a private bank owned and controlled by the worlds' central banks, which were themselves, private corporations. The growth of financial capitalism made possible a centralization of world economic control and use of this power for the direct benefit of financiers and the indirect injury of all other economic groups."
-Tragedy and Hope: A History of The World in Our Time 1966, Professor Carroll Quigley, Georgetown University.

Since man created government to help secure and safeguard [inalienable] rights [from God], it follows that man is superior to government and should remain master over it, not the other way around.
-Ezra Taft Benson

"The New World Order will have to be built from the bottom up rather than from the top down...but in the end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece will accomplish much more than the old fashioned frontal assault."
-Council on Foreign Relations member Richard Gardner, l974

We have the scriptures, the prophets, and the gift of the Holy Ghost. Now we need eyes that will see, ears that will hear, and hearts that will hearken to God’s direction.
-Ezra Taft Benson, “I Testify,” Ensign, Nov. 1988, 86

And what can I say about all the wars and rumors of war? Scheeze, some wise guy was way ahead of me on this one.

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."
- Albert Einstein

Stanley Milgrams in his book, Obedience to Authority, demonstrates that the majority of average, honest citizens will follow authority to do destructive, immoral acts up to the point of injuring, even killing other people. As quoted from Milligram’s book: “…ordinary people simply doing their jobs, and without any particular hostility on their part, can become agents in a terrible destructive process. Moreover, even when the destructive effects of their work becomes patently clear, and they are asked to carry out actions incompatible with fundamental standards of morality, relatively few people have the resources needed to resist authority.”

"We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New world Order."
- David Rockefeller

Anyone else smell the stench of a Judas Goat?

"Brethren, if we had done our homework and were faithful, we could step forward at this time and help save this country. The fact that most of us are unprepared to do it is an indictment we will have to bear. The longer we wait, the heavier the chains, the deeper the blood, the more the persecution, and the less we can carry out our God-given mandate and world-wide mission. The war in heaven is raging on earth today. Are you being neutralized in the battle?"
- Ezra Taft Benson (Conference Report, April 1965)

Neutralized? Scheeze, at this point, 39 years later, I’d have to say we’re practically toast already! Answer this question: Who do you fear the most; your government, or your God?

At the end of this world, when God cleanses the earth by fire, the proud will be burned as stubble and the meek shall inherit the earth.
(See 3 Ne. 12:5, 3 Ne. 25:1; D&C 29:9)

Wake up and sense your awful situation!

While you were sleeping, the secret combinations got above you! Fact is, we all labor on the world plantation. What is wrong with everyone? At this point, sitting on you thumbs waiting for the “rapture” is about as useful to your spiritual salvation as sitting on top of Mount St. Helens is to your temporal salvation!

At one end of the spectrum we have anarchy; at the other end, tyranny. The balancing force in between is a Constitutional Republic, but you don't hear much about that in the mainstream these days. All you hear about is democracy. It seems that the majority beleive we live in a democracy, and that is just plain scary! History shows that every democracy that ever existed has failed, always collapsing under the weight of gimme socialism.

It is of vital importance that We The People realize that we do not need the present government that has designed to reduce Americans under absolute Despotism, and that is must now be DISPLACED, and new Guards be instilled for the future security of America.

But who is there to replace it with?

The problem is, every person who uses irredeemable debased coins and irredeemable notes (or fractional reserves of deposits thereof) in banks, are, in fact, engaging in racketeering, rebellion, treason and seditious conspiracy against their own Constitution and their own government. And under Amendment Fourteen, those in rebellion against the United States, who seek to overthrow the constitutional government of the United States with falsely made securities and coins of the United States, forfeit their rights to vote or hold public office in the United States or in any State. Does this not indicate the gravity of the awful situation we find ourselves faced with?

Oh, the cognitive dissonance and denial that sets in here! So why do I continue to beat my head against the proverbial brick wall? Because I am a slave and don't like it!

The day of decision is upon us. We must retrace our way to that place where we missed the road to our salvation. We do not belong on this road to serfdom that leads to a land where men sell their soul for what they call security, but which turns out to be a nightmare in which man is a lost soul without a home.

God Will Not Be Mocked

You are proud to be American. You are proud to be a Christian. You are proud of your house. You are proud of your job. You are proud of your savings. You are proud of your heritage. You are proud of your mind. You are proud of your church. You are proud of your country. You are a fraud.

God will not be mocked.

You have decided for whom you will vote, though you have not seriously researched that candidate, his personal history, his myriad associations, or his spiritual fruit. When someone offers you this information, you close your ears, you change the subject. You haven't asked God for whom you may vote, or even if you may vote. You don't consult God, but ask Him to bless your decisions, because His will is subject to YOUR will. You are a fraud.

God will not be mocked.

Your entire life you have had your way, and you have sown into your kingdom, the kingdom of the wind. You shall reap the whirlwind.
You shall reap the loss of your house, the loss of your church, the loss of your job, the loss of your savings, the loss of your heritage, the loss of your mind, the loss of your country, yes, even the loss of your life, for you have sought to keep and control it.

House 9/11 Bill Will Set Up A Database On All Americans, Create National ID Card

From Gun Owners of America
8001 Forbes Place, Suite 102Springfield, VA 22151 (703)321-8585
http://www.gunowners.org/

Full article Here http://www.gunowners.org/a100404.htm

What part of "Constitution" don't they understand?

In a frightening move, House Republicans -- members of the party that supposedly favors "limited government" -- are pushing an Orwellian nightmare in Congress in the name of "national security."

In the wake of the 9/11 Commission's recommendations, the Senate -- unlike the House -- has prepared legislation which would closely track that Commission's findings by reorganizing the intelligence services in the federal government. The Senate bill is relatively innocuous compared to the House version, HR 10.

Unfortunately, many of the so-called Republicans in the House are pushing this nightmarish legislation which would:

* Create a massive government database containing personal information on every American man, woman and child;
* Standardize (i.e., nationalize) the process of issuing driver's licenses -- thereby taking the final step toward creating a national ID card; and
* Set up a system whereby any employer or industry identified by the Attorney General would have to submit employment applicants to the government for approval -- complete with fingerprints or other "biometric identifiers."
Now, let's look at how each of these problems could affect your rights -- gun rights in particular:

(1) The government database is created by section 2173 of HR 10, a bill introduced by House Speaker Dennis Hastert. It would allow airline passengers to be screened against lists containing "all appropriate records." What would be "appropriate" would be within the exclusive discretion of the bureaucrats, but could include medical records, confidential financial records, library records, and gun records.

(2) The driver's license standards are in section 3052. They would allow the federal government to set standards as high as desired to determine who may or may not obtain a driver's license. Please note that you need a driver's license (or similarly regulated state-issued photo ID) to purchase a gun from a dealer. But, increasingly, you also need it to travel on any form of transportation (airplane, bus, train, car), to get a job, to open a checking account, to cash a check, to check into a hotel, to rent a car, or to purchase cigarettes or alcohol. If the federal government can set standards so high as to deny you a driver's license or photo ID, it has effectively turned you into a non-person.

(3) Section 2142 would allow the U.S. attorney general to promulgate any regulations he desires concerning (a) what employers must submit the names and fingerprints of all employment applicants to the FBI, (b) what standards the government will use in approving or disapproving the employment applicants, and (c) whether or not the government's "disapproval" will prevent the applicant from being hired.

There is nothing in section 2142 which would prohibit an anti-gun attorney general from (a) requiring the resumes and fingerprints of every employment applicant in the country, (b) disapproving them on the basis of gun ownership or, for that matter, any factor he viewed as not being politically correct, and (c) prohibiting any employer from hiring an applicant thus blacklisted.

ACTION: Write your representative. Ask him, in the strongest terms, to vote against any "9/11 legislation" that (1) creates a government database of personal information on law-abiding Americans, (2) moves toward the use of a driver's license as a National ID Card, or (3) sets up a system for fingerprinting and approving job applicants in the private sector.

----- Pre-written message -----

Dear Representative:

Movement toward an oppressive government does not make me feel more "secure."

Therefore, I would urge you, in the strongest terms, to please vote against HR 10, The 9/11 Recommendations Implementation Act, if it:

* Creates a massive government database containing personal information on every American man, woman and child [section 2173];
* Standardizes (i.e., nationalizes) the process of issuing driver's licenses -- thereby taking the final step toward creating a national ID card [section 3052];
* Sets up a system whereby any employer or industry identified by the Attorney General would have to submit employment applicants to the government for approval -- complete with fingerprints or other "biometric identifiers" [section 2142].

Frankly, the ideas which are being floated with respect to this legislation are simply horrible, and are surely unworthy of those who have sworn to protect the Constitution.

Sincerely,
Your Name
