The situation in Hardin, Montana has a STENCH to it.  Seems as how there is a *connection* to other, less than favorable similar situations. Be sure to make note of the DATES on some of this.

Who could have hatched such a diabolical plot?  After connecting the numerous dots, out there in plain sight for everyone to see, it has now become abundantly obvious.  This was no accident, this has been in the planning stages for years.  The plan is to strip America of its wealth, its resources, its freedom and its sovereignty, all disguised as Motherhood, Apple Pie, Chevrolet, environmentalism, social justice, protecting the public health and national security, under the umbrella of a government-manufactured financial crisis.

And it isn’t the first time.  President Wilson, co-conspirator with the Rockefellers and the Morgans, (the Gang of 7 – Jekyll Island) brought America the un-accountable Federal Reserve, the overtly aggressive Internal Revenue Service and got the ball rolling.  President Hoover, tweaked the capital markets with regulation and brought us the Great Depression.

The various videos below take a while to watch, but they are well worth the time in order to understand the history leading up to, and connecting with, current events.

The interviews with a KGB defector provide a revelation to anyone naive enough to believe that Marxism and communism pose no threat to anyone, including us, today – and they clarify in chilling detail the true nature of the horror of living under these systems of government, the success of the Soviets in spreading communism around the world, and the diabolically clever tactics that were used to make this happen.

Here are the top 10 facts every American should know about Senator Baucus’ proposed government takeover of health care:

1. Medicare Cuts Mean Reduced Benefits, Fewer Choices for Seniors. The Baucus plan cuts Medicare by nearly $500 billion, slashing coverage millions of seniors depend on. These benefit cuts will ultimately eliminate choices currently enjoyed by seniors today. Doug Elmendorf, the head of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, told the Senate Finance Committee yesterday he “expected the Medicare Advantage plans to lose 2.7 million enrollees over the next decade” as a result of the Baucus plan.

It is not a new observation, but it is one that needs review and repeating every so often. Why do liberals always seem to get on the wrong side of any issue concerning America’s future? Its sovereignty? Its financial security? Its defense?

I think this question is particularly timely given the public discussion of Obamacare that included a huge peaceful protest march on Washington September 12th. The President’s non-stop campaign to get “reform” passed and the heated exchanges in Congress do not represent actual healthcare reform, but are testimony to a liberal obsession with a very bad idea.

Many people believe that the American Revolution began when the first shots were fired at Lexington and Concord. Not so! The Revolutionary War began at Lexington and Concord, but the actual revolution had been going on for quite some time.

Prior to discussing the American Revolution, it is essential the people understand the reasons why a people would choose to go to war with their established government. There lies within each individual a desire to be free of burdensome laws and unjust taxes.

Anyone who has ever been told that they must do something that conflicted with their personal beliefs has felt the fire of indignation. It was that fire of indignation which formed the basis for the American Revolution.

Oh what wicked lies they weave… and watch out for Martial Law, or even quarantine if you don’t take yours!

This has been a marathon undertaking, to provide you with all, which is necessary to understand the REAL threat. It’s not the flu, that will kill you – it’s the damned vaccine. All that you read here is not the end of it. we invite you to follow ALL of the embedded links. Send this far and wide to everyone you know and care about, for if you do not, and as one begins to read, study and THINK for themselves, one has to ask, “What’s in it for me, other than maybe death!”?

Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.

To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession.

Publisher’s Notes: I haven’t been to the P.O. Box in several weeks, as I have been busy. When I got there tonight, I found a note and copy of an old column waiting for me – along with a box of Kettle Korn from my old friend Carl K. in PA.  That, which follows below, is a note with reference to the original posting of June 16, 2003, which was sent to me by a long-time reader, Raimond B., who stated in his note:

Jeff,
I came across this recently in a box of my old papers and articles. What scares the hell out of me, is that the article seems much more relevant today, than when it was first posted on your website.

Read it, and draw your own conclusions. (JB/09.25.09)

Publisher’s Notes: For over a year, the MSM (Mainstream Media) has been on the attack against Sarah Palin, predominantly due to her lack of “chops” in the global political arena. I believe that she has a way to go, but it would appear that she has finally settled into the learning cycle – and is out to prove, that she is not to be taken lightly.

Whether she is Executive Office material or not, or even considers running fo rthe preidency in the future, is not the issue with me – but the fact that she is expanding her horizons – says much about the Lady.

Why did the president feign ignorance of ACORN when his relationship with the group goes back almost 20 years?

September 24, 2009 – Given President Obama’s long and close ties to ACORN, it is understandable that he should have distanced himself as long as possible from the latest and most heinous ACORN scandal: the capture on video of employees in at least five different ACORN offices avidly coaching activists, posing as a pimp and prostitute, in how to set up child-prostitution brothels and commit housing fraud. In the latest of these undercover videos, one staffer went so far as to offer to assist in smuggling a dozen underage girls into the U.S. as sex slaves.

But this past weekend, when asked during an ABC interview about the videos, President Obama had no choice but to respond. What the videos reveal, he said, “was certainly inappropriate and deserves to be investigated.”

The other day, just as I sat down to lunch, one of my co-workers, who was sitting at the table, blurted out, “Boy, I bet the founding fathers are rolling in their graves.” I was tempted to play devil’s advocate, and ask him what made him say that, but I thought better of it. However, his comment stuck with me throughout the remainder of the day. I kept thinking of the many reasons that would cause our founders to roll in their graves.

One reason might be due to the policy of the person who currently occupies the Oval Office. Or possibly it could be due to the fact that our government isn’t quite what they envisioned when they drafted the Constitution.

You thought you had us didn’t you?  Surprise! Surprise!  It’s not exactly going your way, is it?  You thought that because a whole bunch of dependent Americans, that your party has bought off for the last 100 years with our money, who have their hand out to government for everything they can get, that voted for your illusive hope and change, that you could have your way with the rest of the country, didn’t you?  How’s that working out for you Mr. President?  Your poll numbers are dropping like a rock.

Your in-experience is getting more visible by the day.  Connections to your corrupt, community organizing past and present are being relentlessly exposed.  Radical communists and socialists that infect your cabinet, czars and advisors are a window to your evil agenda.

Let’s face it: most Americans live in a world of false security. This is somewhat understandable, given the fact that the majority of the U.S. population was born after 1945. Few remember the dangers and hardships of World War II; fewer still remember the Great Depression. Few Americans know what it’s like to not have some sort of “supercenter” nearby with shelves stocked with every kind of food imaginable, twenty-four hours a day. Few know what life was like before there were restaurants of all sizes and types on virtually every street corner in America. And only a handful remembers when most roads were unpaved, or when sports were truly a pastime and not a megabuck obsession.

Modern living within the world’s only “superpower” has created a giant unsuspecting, soft, lackadaisical, and lethargic society.

When World War Two arrived at America’s doorstep, we had to virtually build an Army, Air Force, Navy and Marines from scratch. The war had been raging in Europe since 1939 by the time the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor propelled us into war in 1941. The Japanese had been sacking, raping and looting Manchuria and China since 1931.

Now President Obama wants to reduce the U.S. arsenal of nuclear weapons to a reported “hundreds rather than thousands” to prepare for deep cuts. Truman was the first and last president to actually use a nuclear weapon to end the war with Japan.

Since then, all presidents have paid lip service to reducing the threat of nuclear weapons, but there is an iron law that says you cannot “un-invent” something once it comes into existence.

Sorry Barry – you just can’t fool all of the people all of the time!

On a Sunday show (9/20/09), the President offers a revealing definition.

President Obama didn’t make much news on his round of five Sunday talk shows yesterday, with one notable exception. The President revealed a great deal about his philosophy of government and how he defines a tax increase. It turns out the President thinks a health-care tax is not a tax if he thinks the tax is for your own good.

Appearing on ABC’s “This Week,” Mr. Obama was asked by host George Stephanopoulos about the “individual mandate.” Under Max Baucus’s Senate bill that Mr. Obama supports, everyone would be required to buy health insurance or else pay a penalty as high as $3,800 a year. Mr. Stephanopoulos posed the obvious question about this kind of coercion when “the government is forcing people to spend money, fining you if you don’t [buy insurance]. . . . How is that not a tax?”

I have been away for a few days, and upon my return late last night, I found that not much had changed and the world continued to turn – or spin out of control on its axis of evil. The following has transpired (and probably much more)::

• The Obamameister has suggested that a bailout of the newspaper industry might be under consideration.

Is he out of his ever lovin’ mind? Newspapers don’t make money by selling thinly disguises bird-cage liners. They make money by selling advertising. It’s why I don’t buy them. I can look in the yellow-pages, if I want advertising. I want to read NEWS! But that won’t happen here in America – unless you go to some independent sources – and they are all on-line. That’s why the published word is dying – and it should be buried!

The only reason that Oboingo is considering bailing out the newspaper industry, is because most of them publish his words and deeds as they are instructed to do  – and they do it ever so blindly. Which is to say that, they are his shills. “Yaw baby! Don’t question de Massah, or you might be labeled as ‘racist’!”

A small handful of wealthy internationalists and socialists own these rags, and they are a B-I-G part of what is wrong in this nation. I’ll not quote Swinton here today, as I have done so elsewhere, and everyone knows the story. If you don’t, then do a  Google search for John Swinton – and you’ll better understand.

• The EMERGENCY Hell-Care bill is still being bandied about – you know – the one that absolutely, positively HAD to be passed right then and there or the country would collapse.

That fight continues and THEY are hoping that we’ll go back to sleep. Ain’t gonna happen. The Federal Observer is ready to get back to work on this issue. I have enough family members to care for – I can’t afford to care for someone elses. OH – that’s right – it wasn’t healthcare anyway – it was Government takeover and control of the Insurance industry. HR 3200 & HR 3400 in the House and over in the Senate, they now have the Baucus Bill – another scam we’ll have to watch. The U.S. CONgress has had 16 years since Billy Jeff took HellareeCare to the same august body to get REAL reform right. They didn’t do it then, they can’t do it now, nor will they ever be able to.  Leave it to the government to screw up a wet-dream! Don’t believe me? In the words of Bette Davis’ character, Margo Channing  in 1950′s  All About Eve, “Stick around! It’s going to be a bumpy night!”

The 19′s
If I were a numerologist, I would be nodding my head along about now. April 19th of course has it’s own series of interconnected happenings, Lexington & Concord, (Mt. Carmel) Waco, the Oklahoma City Bombing – and I am sure a few other things.

Upon my return from the serenity of the fresh, green mountains of Arizona late last night, I heard of the passing of one of the last remaining independent publishers in America, Don Harkins of the Idaho Observer. This morning, I learned that author and commentator, Fred Marshall Jr. had also passed on the same day. Do a Google search on wither or both of these names and see what you can find. Both passed away on September 19, 2009.

Last night, I posted the following on Don’s memorial webpage, and when I wrote my sentiments, Fred was in the back of my mind, as I knew that his time was nearing an end.

I am truly saddened by this loss.

When the Federal  Observer first went on line on July 22, 2001, Don was among the first to congratulate me and wish us well. His note was brief, but memorable, as he said, “Good choice of a name.”

There are far too many of us becoming deathly ill, and I fear that our strongest messengers are being silenced.

Don can not be replaced, but his passing, sounds a trumpet (Gabriel’s, I suspect) that those of us who remain, must carry the torch in his name.

May it burn ever-so brightly, as we march toward victory.

From Wikipedia (dated August 9, 2009):

The Idaho Observer is a monthly hardcopy 24-page constitutionally oriented newspaper, originating in North Idaho, United States, but with a scope that covers all of America, delivered nationwide. The paper is a prominent example of advocacy journalism, focusing primarily on populist political issues, 9/11 Truth, and the preservation of American civil liberties. The Observer also covers holistic medicine, along with national and international current affairs.

The key words here of course are, “The paper is a prominent example of advocacy journalism, focusing primarily on populist political issues, 9/11 Truth, and the preservation of American civil liberties.”

The debt owed to Don Harkins and Fred Marshall Jr., along with other stalwart Patriots such as Jacki Juntti, Lynn Stuter, Bernadine Smith, Claire Wolf, and Mike Vanderboegh and those who follow, like Ron Ewart and Neal Ross, can never be repaid, save for one method of payment – to forge ahead and win!

God gave us the rope. We hung ourselves. It’s time to roll up our sleeves and get back to work, and that’s what I’ll be doing tonight and tomorrow – and as long as there is something worth fighting for.

As we reach the end of this road, I’ll see you at Sundown.

Without Apology I am,

Editor’s Note: We each, in our own way will continue to protest the wrongs of this world. Rest in Peace, Mary Travers. We will fight on. (Ed.)

Mary Travers, whose ringing, earnest vocals with the folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary made songs like “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “If I Had a Hammer” and “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” enduring anthems of the 1960s protest movement, died on Wednesday at Danbury Hospital in Connecticut. She was 72 and lived in Redding, Conn.

The cause was complications from chemotherapy associated with a bone-marrow transplant she had several years ago after developing leukemia, said Heather Lylis, a spokeswoman.

The ink was barely dry on the constitution when efforts began to change it.  Not all were in agreement with its original content and thought it could be improved.  Alexander Hamilton wanted more power in the central government.  Most others wanted the lions share of the power to rest with the states and the people.

Judicial tests of the constitution started almost immediately.  In 1801 a celebrated case was brought to the U. S. Supreme Court in Maybury vs. Madison and was the first time the Supreme Court declared something unconstitutional.  The court established the concept of judicial review in the U.S. (the idea that courts may oversee and nullify the actions of another branch of government).

My last two commentaries sure stirred up quite a ruckus. Those who responded unfavorably to what I said seem think that I am putting forth the call for all freedom loving Americans to take up arms against anyone we disagree with.

One of these individuals put forth a lot of effort to write a commentary about what I had said. He believed that there must be a plan, and we must have leaders who can outline the plan. He believed that our best course is to unite all true conservatives together under common leadership that will speak for the masses.

Another individual said that I am willing to take up arms over my personal disagreement over policy issues and that I should work within the system while a peaceful alternative remains available.
