Revolution Now
This article is an introduction to my book that I'm currently writing. In the first part of the book I cover the rant and the need for change or revolution and in the second half I offer nine solutions for removing criminals and establishment politicians from our government.
"Revolution Now" is a democratic manifesto on restoring our government to it's pristine state of the original constitution and bill of rights.
"All political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority and instituted for their benefit."
The above quote is engraved on the wall of the archive building west of the state capitol in Austin, Texas. It was etched in granite so the people would never forget. The above quote is part of the declartion of rights in the Texas constitution but I believe it applies to all the people of this great nation.
Why a revolution? In 1947, the National Security Act was passed thus began our offical secret government. The two main entities were the founding of the CIA and NSA. Information that government servants want to keep from the people could be stone walled behind the umbrella of National Security. The catch all phrase of, "This involves national security and you don't have a need to know" is frequently invoked. Today, The popular phrase is, "The terrorists will know our plans." On a personal note, I once worked for the federal government and the DOD with top secret security clearances and when I conducted investigatons and I came across people reluctant to an interview I would often use the phrase, "This involves national security", and very often the line worked.
Taking the lead of the CIA, NSA and DOD many other federal agencies hide under the national security concept. We now have Homeland Security and their, "No Fly" lists. If you happen to be an unfortunate member, well good luck in finding out why you are listed and how to be removed. We bascially have an executive branch that stonewalls any investigations and under the FOIA if you do happen to receive a reply, many times key elements of the documents are blackened out. The white house intially refused to have an investigaton on 9-11-01 but public pressure over came resistance. The 911 commission was a whitewash because many of the important issues were never addressed such as, why WTC7 fell and why were there mulitiple explosions being heard before the WTC fell. The 9-11 commission was so frustrated with repeated misstatements by the Pentagon and FAA about their response to the 2001 terror attacks that Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton considered an investigation into deception and filing criminal charges.
Today, we have our civil servants who have kicked you, I and the people to the curb and are running the house. The establishment politicans whether they are democrat or republican have an attitude of, "We will do whatever the hell we want and if you don't like it, try and remove us from office."
This country is bankrupt and this is why you see our government selling off our ports to foreign investors. The DOD alone has over $3 TRILLION unaccounted for since the days of Clinton and yet we still can't get a straight answer as to why? We have a federal reserve that is a corporation and prints fiat money like newspaper without a gold or precious metal standard. We have no accountability at the highest levels of leadership in government agencies. No government agency or individual has been held accountable for the attacks on 9-11-01. We have a senate committe led by Pat Roberts who refuses to investigate the intelligence failures of the Iraq war. Let's call it what it is, a lie, a deception. Our shadow government specializes in deception and you don't have a right or reason to know because it involves, "National Security!" We now have the pre-emptive doctrine which essentially say's, "We can't wait for a mushroom cloud," and if the shadow government thinks or feels threatened, we will invade a sovereign nation. Besides the Katrina debacle and the failures of FEMA and the bloated bureaucracy of the mulit-billion dollar Homeland Security department, we have economic and military aid going to Israel to destroy Lebanon and now recently a $230 million aid package to Lebanon to rebuild what the U.S military weapons manufactures used to destroy Lebanon in the first place. We have a war party that is supported by all of the military industrial complex. War is profitable for those who have a vested interest. If you notice, the establishment politicans and their wealthy lobby groups love to use the term, "war." Since the days of LBJ, we have been at war not only in Vietnam, but we had or have the War on Education, War on Poverty, War on Drugs, War on Terror and what's next? War on the People? If you are aware you will notice we've had more poverty, less educated school children, more drugs and more terror alerts to scare the sheeple into submission. Ask yourself why the middle class in this country is shrinking? Why are corporations out sourcing jobs to other countries and importing cheap goods from slave labor countries like China to be retailed at top dollar here in the United States? Why the mass influx of immigration over our southern borders? To "do the jobs that Americans will not accept" according to Bush. Let's not forget tax breaks for the wealthiest 1% of all Americans. In the, "Trickle down theory" of economics the wealthy oligarchy's will invest in business that will create American jobs. Anyone seeing that here in the USA? Don't forget about off shore tax accounts that are hidden by large corporations that otherwise would pay revenue here in the states. Again, we have a phony, duplicit two party politcal system in this country that is easily manipulated and controlled by "K" street lobby groups and wealthy independent investors. In addition to loose campaign finance laws we have electronic voting machines without paper tracking ballots and diebold voting machines susceptible to hacking. In the event of a recount how can one verify a valid ballot box if there is no paper trail? In the 2004 presidential election, exit polls were showing Kerry ahead by as much as 6% in Ohio and 3% nationwide. Zogby polling had Kerry ahead in the electoral vote 311 to 213 for Bush.
The police state and the military enforcers in this country are now funded by federal programs at the state, county and city levels and backed by legislation titled, "The USA Patriot Act", which specifies anyone can be labeled a terrorist and locked up without being charged. We have a blight on our country called, Guantanmo, where so called enemy combatants or terrorists have been incarcerated for over five years without a trial. We have CIA torture flights, or "extraordinary rendition" which is a coined phrase for legal torture where suspects are flown to other countries by the CIA and DOD to be tortued for information on the phony war on terror. We have taxation without representation and taxation without return of social services. This country does not have a national health plan or compensation for employment loss. The six months of unemployment insurance and social security benefits, if you qualify, average about $900 a month. This figure is not even close to a cost of living wage. The average citizen pays 28% or more on the dollar in taxes but receives little or no social services in return as compared to countries that are socialist in government.
We have oil companies maximizing profits and the cost of a barrel of oil is projected to rise. Alternative means of energy was discussed since the days of the Carter administration. The electric car concept that was implemented in California now sits in moth balls. You don't think big oil has anything to do with that do you? We have a complicit corporate media that toes the Bush white house and sings to their corporate cronies. Fox news currently has their anchor in the white house. Fox news was the front running cheerleader to invade Iraq. Never mind the millions who protested across this country. These anti-war folks don't support the troops and are with the terrorists if you listen to Rove and Darth Cheney. Current polls indicate 60% of Americans are opposed to the war in Iraq. Using Rovian logic that leaves about 40% of Americans who are not with CIA-Al-Queda. The war party candidates stick together and Libermann is proof of being a uniter among the phony two party system. Establishmen politicans like Hillary Clinton, Russ Feingold, John Kerry and other so called liberals continue to vote in support of financing the Iraq war contrary to a clear majority of Americans who oppose such legislation. All one has to do is not listen to what these politicans say, but how they vote. Visit their official web sites. The last watershed moment in this country was the impeachment proceedings and resignation of Nixon. The GOP that circles the white house in our congress will not allow this event to happen again and some of the familiar actors are on the stage in Washington from the Nixon era. Lead characters are, Cheney and Rumsfield. We have a justice department that will not investigate the white house because AG Gonzales was handpicked by Bush. The President has the justice department in his back pocket. We no longer hear from special prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald and the Plame case. The justice department and white house are hoping you will forget all about it and the corporate media has stopped bringing up the Plamegate leak case. Rove and Libby do not act on their own without authorizations from above and the finger points to Cheney. One group that is often left out of the picture in all of these deals involving war profits, arms trade, secret black ops funded by drugs, pharmaceutical companies and other wall street adventures is the international banks. The international banks fund international transactions especially dealing with military weaponry and high tech space gadgets. If there is money to be made, then the banks are going to have their doors wide open whether it's illegal or legal. When it comes to war crimes, whether it's in Iraq or Sudan, very often it's the lowly private or low ranking officer who takes the fall. One needs to look no further than the results of the Abu Ghraib scandal. You didn't find a Rumsfield, Cheney, Bush or a friendly politican implicated. In the final analysis, after we examine the Patriot Act, the secret government, the establishment career politicans, the corporate federal reserve, the war in Iraq and our bankrupt country now being sold off to foreign investors, who is to blame? "We the People" have nobody to blame but ourselves because thru our non participation and lack of oversight we have allowed all of this to transpire. Yes, I know it sounds uncomfortable and some of you maybe saying, "well..I voted, I marched against the war, I wrote my congressman or congresswoman and I wrote my local editor and.." well, I did too and guess what? It's wasn't enough because you and I and many other Americans did not take drastic measures or make the sacrifice to stop the corrupion and crimes being committed by a few civil servants in our government. I understand that the corporate banks and their controllers have many of you in debt or you make just enough money to provide food for yourself and family and maybe keep a roof over your head. This was all done by design. The fascist element in our government does not want you to have too much money because in their eyes that equates to having too much power. With a little extra money, You might just have too much influence or you may have money sitting in your bank account to take these criminals to court when an injustice has occurred against you or your family or friends. I understand all of the excuses but when are you going to ask youselves, "I've had enough of this BS?" I often hear, "I don't know what to do?" or "I know what is going on and I'm outraged but how can I do anything?" This book is written with those questions in mind. I am going to outline and expand upon nine solutions to taking back our government and removing the criminal politicans. I start out with moderate measures that are simple to perform and do not require a great deal of effort such as networking or "netroots" type activity. The last solution culminates with more extreme measures and I present a plan thru non-violent means that involves military style tactics and civil disobedience. The majority of my previous rant that I covered is nothing new to many readers here. It is designed for those who are beginning to wake up. I could cover many more topics and vice but I think this is a good start and reason enough to get off our butt and turn away from the latest gossip tv parade and distracting, "missing children story."
Never under estimate the collective will of, "We the People." You have the power to affect change. You have been mislead and lied to much too often and many of us in the past have given away our power. People seek answers and solutions to problems. We often hear the negative rant without the positive solutions. Have the courage and conviction to stand up for your self and others. Never forget, you are the government! The present government is nothing but a reflection of who we are as a people. You may not agree but again thru the force and will of a few people coupled with lies and deception and our compliance, they have created the conditions that is our reality today. This can all change and it is changing but we have to wake up the rest of the American sheeple. We have to raise their levels of awarness and discernment. "We the People" outnumber the establishment politicans, we outnumber the police state and their minions, we outnumber the wealthy corporate elite, we outnumber the corporate media and their propaganda mouthpieces, we outnumber the criminals in our shadow government, We the People have spoken and we are taking action. Get the word out and hit the streets. A revolution is brewing and I for one am going to ride the crest of the wave. See you on the streets
