CEASE AND DESIST

To: Barack Hussein Obama, an employee of We, the People of these United States of America

To: All persons employed at agencies, cabinet departments and other entities NOT SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZED by the Constitution for the United States

To: The Members of the Senate, employees of We, the People of these United States

To: The Members of the House of Representatives, employees of We, the People of these United States

To: Judges, Justices and other members of the Judicial branch, employees of We, the People of these United States

We, the People of these United States of America, the sole bedrock and source of authority for you, our employees, to work and to have certain powers to act in our names and on our behalf, do hereby order you to CEASE AND DESIST any and all activities which are not FULLY AND COMPLETELY IN ACCORD with the VERY LIMITED grant of authority we gave you in the Constitution for the United States.

We hereby instruct you to READ the Founding Documents of this nation: The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and understand and RESPECT the source of your limited authority. We further order and instruct you to begin at once the process of vetting ALL PRIOR legislation ever passed, enforced or ruled on for its STRICT adherence to Constitutional limits on authority. We then expect that any and all legislation, executive orders, cabinet posts, agencies and other appurtenances of government not found in compliance to be repealed, excised and removed from existence.

We further require that ANY AND ALL legislation or executive orders or judicial rulings have as their first words the specific section and paragraph which authorizes them, We have grown exceedingly weary of the weight of government you have placed on us over the years and decades, virtually ALL of which is contrary to the LIMITED authority we granted you. Now We, the People of these United States are RECLAIMING our birthright, OUR inheritance, bought and paid for by the blood and sacrifice of untold men and women, whose bootstraps you are unworthy to kiss. You have, with so few exceptions as to be almost none, brought such shame and disgrace to the offices to which we hired you that we no longer trust you with the reins of authority.

We, the People of these United States, hereby rescind any authority you have to act in our names and on our behalf until such time as you have PROVEN by action, not words; by DEEDS, not by sugary oratory, that you finally understand the relationship you have with us. You are our EMPLOYEES, NOT our rulers. We, as a free and independent People, have NO ruler save Almighty God.

An Email to Report yourself

Below is a letter from my Brother, David Wright to Flag@whitehouse.gov. Feel free to send it to them and report yourself. I know I am!

The Whitehouse – through its website at whitehouse.gov has asked all of us to spy on one another and report back to them. The request is just below and followed by my first report of the sort of activity they seem concerned about. I sent this to them earlier today and also posted it on my blog at: http://www.blogger.com/home?pli=1&pli=1

Facts Are Stubborn Things
Posted by Macon Phillips
August 4, 2009

Opponents of health insurance reform may find the truth a little inconvenient, but as our second president famously said, "facts are stubborn things."

Scary chain emails and videos are starting to percolate on the internet, breathlessly claiming, for example, to "uncover" the truth about the President's health insurance reform positions.

There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can't keep track of all of them here at the White House, we're asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov .

The Whitehouse

6 Aug 2009

Dear Comrade Phillips

I report myself. I am an American citizen and I oppose Socialism. I criticize myself for not opposing it with more enthusiasm in the past.

Socialism is Evil in all its guises.

Socialism is Anti-Liberty.

Socialism is Anti-Individual Initiative.

Socialism is Anti-American.

Socialism has been the enemy of my country for all the years I have lived on this earth. (The Socialism of Nazi Germany, The Socialism of The Peoples Republic of China, The Socialism of the USSR, the Socialism we fought across Europe in that terrible struggle won through the sacrifices of “The Greatest Generation”, the Socialism fought against by the Forgotten Heroes of The Korean War and by the Rejected Warriors who fought in Vietnam.)

Socialism is not new to the American People. We know Socialism.

(Many of us have read Nietzsche and Marx!)

We know how it begins with the urge to “redistribute wealth” following the dictum “From each according to his ability – to each according to his need”.

We know how it progresses first to the Nationalization of “Vital Industry” under the pretense of “Creating” or “Preserving” jobs or the empty promise of dividing the profits with the workers who produced them; The Nationalization of Banks and the financial systems so that all monetary transactions may be controlled by Central Authority, the Nationalization of Health Care services so that the health and well being – the very lives of the citizens -- will depend upon the good will of Government.

We have watched vibrant and thriving populations succumb to the poverty, disease and desolation that are the fruits of Socialism.

Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

We have seen Socialism – we have seen the haunted landscapes of once-great cities – the ghostly smoke-stacks rising above the idle factories and empty warehouses – the darkened buildings towering over the sky-line that once represented a center of commerce and life!

Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

We have seen Socialism! We have watched the lines form in the decaying streets – lines of people who despair of ever returning to the once productive life of former years. Lines where the hope is for a loaf of bread for the hungry children or a dose of medicine for a dying baby. Lines of once friendly people who look at each other with a measure of apprehension – “Who is the informant?”. Will this be the one to report me to Central Authority?

Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

Americans are a generous people – we have spent much time, effort and money over the years sending relief to the wan-faced, swollen-bellied children of Socialism. Many of them died anyway while the so-called “Leaders” grew fat and self-satisfied behind the guarded gates of their luxurious compounds. The same leaders frequently steal from our generosity to add to their hoard. The few amass wealth and power while the masses suffer.

Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

Now we watch (almost in unbelief!) as our own crop of would-be Oligarchs prance and preen upon the national stage of our once great country where they piously pretend to be the purveyors of prodigious wisdom which would be beyond the comprehension of the mere mortals who live and work in the “Fly-Over Country” of the heart-land. They behave as though they truly do not believe that we know what is good for us. We disagree.

Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

We know Socialism – we know the insidious methods by which it seizes power and sucks the life-blood from a nation ad a people.

We know the double-speak:

“Poverty is Prosperity”

“We oppress you for your own benefit!”

“Making people equally poor will make them equally wealthy!”

We know – we know!

Yes, we know. I know.

Now you ask me to inform on the casual conversations of my friends, neighbors and family.

No.

You ask me to report the worried messages from heroes who fought valiantly for my country and are now concerned about the direction it seems to be taking.

No.

You quoted it yourself: “Facts are stubborn things!” and we do agree on that point. Facts are what they are and the facts of the history of experiments in socialism paint a very bleak picture of what it will do to those foolish enough to get involved in it.

No. I won’t report others but I report myself! I report that I abhor Socialism and recognize the fact that Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

I criticize myself for not speaking against it more vehemently in the past and I denounce the apathy that was at the root of that behavior!

I confess my shame! I am ashamed that I am at least partly culpable in the fiasco that has allowed my country to fall into the hands of those who would elevate Thieves, Liars, tax Cheats and Thugs of every stripe to High Office in this “Land of Liberty”!

I am ashamed that the missive you sent out should have ever appeared on the letterhead of The White House. You, yourself, should be ashamed!

This is an action more befitting a dictator in a banana republic somewhere than the leader of the free world who occupies the highest office in this “land of the free and home of the brave”.

Socialism is Evil in all its guises!

Shame on you!

Shame!

Shame!

Yours In Liberty

The SIMPLE question a lib won't answer....

Greeting again my fellow earth travelers,

I have again gotten the attention of a Liberal. This one goes by the Handle of @JMRsOMA and the "Name" she has is ChitlinKraut. I started out the day as I normally do, weeding out the junk followers and lost Liberals who stumble on me. Here is what I read when I viewed her profile:
(NOTE: My Tweets will be in italics)

(@JMRsOMA)@ricksanchezDUI - I respect Ms Garafolo, you? Laughable. It's clear how some celebs waterboys and girls troll themselves on Twitter.

(@JMRsOMA)@imcrazyriter CambridgePD mishandled stupidly, right down to its written report&allegations against Whalen. Beck is stupidly opportunistic.

And this one:

(@JMRsOMA)@iamdiddy - ask Dirty Money to create a Glenn Beck song about how he should not call President Obama a racist

I at this point decided that I would reply to this person and indicate that perhaps I was not someone she would REALLY want to follow as I had a rather differing point of view that she seems to express.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA But D'OHbama IS a racist. And why should Beck be fired when Letterman didn't? You might want to Unfollow me. I hate your God Obama

A short while later I got this from here and it was ON!!

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 I know you don't want to breath the same air as me, get over it, I'm here-ain't gwoing nada block me-I don't give a rats ....

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA you are not correct. I wish you no ill like your follower did me. I don't believe in sharing my wealth with leeches on society.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA you are welcome to follow but u won't like what I say. Truth is scary to those who believe the lies of D'OHbama.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 - There are no moral components in your tweets - valueless

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I bring into question the Morals of a President who has skirted the Constitution, Spoke frequently about how much hates whitey...

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA He is building an empire that will crumble LONG before it gets the groundwork done.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I am thinking that my "valueless" tweets should not be seen by your oh so High Value eyes... Would not want to upset your utopia.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 ((exhales deeply)) drops microphone and walks off stage shaking her head.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA How many followers did you say you had? Oh, 39. You must be really knocking them dead with YOUR valuable insight.

JMRsOMA@JohnSWright49 - U R a slacker. I didnot join this site for followglory, my egos OK, you need the glory, FYI-I've been a member 4 a minute?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I am not here for glory either. You have been here for a minute and judge my tweets VALUELESS?

JMRsOMA@JohnSWright49 From what I've read, let's just say, I did not stutter. Make it a great day, if you know how, slacker.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA ok, for now I will allow you to follow me. You might get a REAL education not indoctrination.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 Thanks for reiterating the obvious SFB

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I don't mind showing the world your ignorance. It reenforces my points of liberal closeminded behaviors.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 I'll keep you unblocked just to read your Obama rants and get a hearty laugh

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA awww, how sweet and u may get the education u so desperately need. Y do libs attack a person instead of an idea?

(FIRST TIME I ASK THE UNANSWERABLE QUESTION):

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA what good has D'OHbama done for this country? Notice the numbers going way down? More ppl are waking.

JMRsOMA@JohnSWright49 The more appropriate question s/b what has Obama done that is "in your eyes" so evil? I don't understand your rath of him

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I could go on for years of the faker in the WH. But like evry other lib I ask that ? Of you don't answer it.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA let's start most recently with his bad case of insertfootinmouth episode with the Racist prof and the evil white cop...

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA then there is the ramming of 24 TRILLION $ of debt he has saddled my decendants with.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA let's move to his being in a church with a radical racist preacher but claims he didn't KNOW wright is a racist.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA Oh, did I mention the circumventing of the Constitution by appointing more Czars than RUSSIA had, EVER?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA Hmmm Socialized Medicine without letting the Congress read the plan...taking over and destroying automakers.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA starting his career in the living room of a domestic terrorist but claims he didn't know.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA sending air force one on a mission over NYC ground zero but gosh...didn't know about it.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA He incites racial tension, promotes a Nanny State, is not a US citizen and therefore not eligible to BE POTUS.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 - Are you out of breath, yet?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA the list grows by the day. Everything he does and says contradict themselves. He claims to be for whatever his audience wants

(Second time for the Unanswerable question):

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA you asked. So I answered YOUR question. What GOOD has he done?

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 - Wow! Testament that only skewed perceptions & personal prejudices would allow such myopic views. You're an American? Wow^2

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA So instead of answering MY question you attack my being an American? How is letting a Petty Dictator-wannabe run the US American?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA Where is my Prejudice?

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 Re-read ur words. I don’t know a Bap non-radical precher. 2 can play the your descends saddled my descends with this…gameNT

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I can quote you his words, but you hear only what you want. I could show you his actions but you only see what you want.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA When asked a simple question you and most libs will go to the personal attack because you don't HAVE an answer.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA You really are not making much sense. I know my words. You asked and I answered. You REFUSE to answer my question.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 - Sad. You don't have a clue how much you are part of the problem. I have no more (today) to say to you, slacker.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA and it is a RADIAL RACIST preacher. And BO has expressed his hatred for America as well as Mad Michelle.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I have not said ANYTHING about you. Just about your point of view that need adjusting, but YOU have to do that.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA Of course you don't. You can't answer my question can you? I answered yours. The "slacker" prize goes to you!

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA You must really hate your parents. No? who damaged you so badly you can't answer a simple question w/o attacking me personally?

@JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 -u are insane. Do you read what you write? No way, could anyone respond to your scatterbrained topics. Focus Fool

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I asked you ONE question. What is so hard to follow about that? Is that ONE too many?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA What I do is Political satire. Comments with a funny twist based in truth. You asked me why I hate D'OHbama and think him evil...

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA Would you like me to repeat the question more slowly?

JohnSWright49 In addition to my tweets being valueless and me being a slacker, I am also an insane unfocused fool. Keep the love coming @JMRsOMA !

JMRsOMA@JohnSWright49 - Political satire? OMgosh, not another wannabe. Your satire is not funny, its evil like you and your twisted misinformation

JMRsOMA@JohnSWright49 - More accurately valueless tweets, slacker, insane unfocused, UnAmerican, fool spewing unsupported assertions

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I can support EVERYTHING I say. Can YOU? Why don't you answer the Question? Is attacking me making you feel good about Urself?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA More personal attacks. More avoidance. More excuses and still no answer to my simple question,

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA So what you are saying is that no one but YOU can have an opinion. If it differs from yours, it is insane?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I would say a POTUS who bows to Saudi Prince's and insults our long time allies is pretty UN AMERICAN.

JMRsOMA@JohnSWright49 - you and your million comments are not only redundant and illogical, your presence is merely to bait. No more bites here

JohnSWright49 I have succeeded in raising the little hairs on the back of @JMRsOMA 's neck. She is in full attack me personally mode.

(THIRD time I asked the Unanswerable question....geesh):

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA awww...you are not going to follow me any more. A SIMPLE question. WHAT HAS OBAMA DONE THAT IS GOOD?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA See ya. Get educated before you come back. Have a safe Government run life.

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 - LOL, NO! If you know what you are doing on this site, you do not have to repeat ur misinformation for different time zones

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA LOL is right, I forget you are an expert Twitterer. Still no answer to my Question. Why do you have trouble answering?

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I have D'OHbama's OWN words and history, well documented, I might add, to back up my claims. What do YOU have?

I made mention that I had noticed later on that she had decided to stop following me. I mentioned that fact and said she might have gotten smart and unfollowed me. She replies hours later:

JMRsOMA @JohnSWright49 -No because you post too many convoluted tweets & they clutter the stream on my page. You assumed wrong typical of egomaniacs

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA lol, then why won't you answer the simple question? My ego is fine. I don't need to attack ppl to feel better about me

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA you can read my blog tomorrow as you star in it.

JohnSWright49 @JMRsOMA I am calling it "the simple question that a lib won't answer"

And here,@JMRsOMA, here is my promised fame for your words of Wisdom!

I am Unfunny Political Satire Wannabe, with valueluess tweets, an insane unfocused Un-American Foolish Slacker spewing unsupported assertions.

I am still looking for the answer to that question.

There you have it...

John S. Wright

Let's Say I broke into your house....

Here is an e-mail my Brother Neil sent me: Read and enjoy....it speaks for itself.


Let's say I break into your house


A lady wrote the best letter in the Editorials in ages!!! It explains
things better than all the baloney you hear on TV.

Her point:

Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country
protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of
illegal immigration.


Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders,
might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to not
stay indefinitely.

Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.
Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me
in your house, you insist that I leave.


But I say, 'No! I like it here. It's better than my house. I've made all
the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors.
I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and
honest
(except for when I broke into your house).

According to the protesters:

You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to feed me
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family
My husband will do all of your yard work because he is also hard-working
and honest. (except for that breaking in part).


If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends
who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my
RIGHT to be there.


It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and
I'm just trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest,
person, except for well, you know, I did break into your house.



And what a deal it is for me!!!

I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my
keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of
cold,

uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and bigoted behavior.


Oh yeah, and I DEMAND that you learn
MY LANGUAGE!!! so that you can communicate with me.


Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?!
America is populated and governed by idiots.
If you agree, pass it on (in English).

If not blow it off.........
along with your future Social Security funds and a lot of the former
benefits of being an American Citizen.

More Twitter Rants

Hey Y'all,
It has been a week since I Blogged, so here is my latest. It is in no particular order, but it covers a WIDE range of topics from the wonderfully effective United Nations(gag) to the Radical Racist "Professor Gates" at my Great time 8 Grandfather's College, Harvard. So enjoy the read, and away we go!!

You can forget anniversaries, birthdays, and ppls names but you NEVER forget the Day your Drill Instructor calls you MARINE!

Remember when BO started his career is the home of Bill Ayers and DIDN'T know he was a terrorist?

Remember when the Pilots took Air Force One out for a Joy ride over NYC at Ground Zero and BO didn't KNOW about it?

Remember when 100s of 1000s of people from EVERY party got together for Tea on tax day and BO didn't know about it?

NEW Game out:"World of Borecraft" I am a 3rd level Apology Wizard. Goal is to Be POTUS BO

BO says: "Disproportionate # of minorities arrested" I say:"Disproportionate # of minorities COMMIT CRIME" Duh!

Liberals don't even take responsibility for blaming others for not taking responsibility!

The shaking in Iran's boots at Gates threat of UN action is laughter not fear.

"Reaganomics" worked for America. "Obamanomics" works against America.

Stealing an idea from Capital One D'OHbaba orders his pic imprinted on all welfare cards. What's in YOUR wallet?

Remember BO promising a PRIVATE army as big and well funded as the UNITED STATES MILITARY? For WHAT?

All the UN can do about Iran is a little Dinner Knife Rattling.

Lemmie see if I got this right...slavery happened, so now when you do dumb(criminal) things its ok becuz your ancestor was a slave

Sec. Of Defense Gates threatens Iran with UN...didn't know he did standup comedy...

Political scientist Jerry McBeath said "In the context of 305 million Americans, 100,000 is not a lot of followers," Re:@AKgovsarahpalin

COME ON DOWN TO SMILIN' BO'S HEALTHCARE!!!! HIS PRICES ARE INSAAAANNNEEE!!!!

Remember the first act of "President Obama" was sealing his records but insisting he has nothing to hide?

The amount of freedom you have is inversely proportional to the size of your government.

Remember BO promising a PRIVATE army as big and well funded as the UNITED STATES MILITARY? For WHAT?

Guess the Apology Tour didn't work, they are STILL blowing up Americans.

Remember when BHO said no bill will be signed or voted on until it was available to the public via internet for a time?

The @whitehouse IS transparent..well,.except for who visits..and policies..and eligibility...and associations....

Remember when BO said he would Balance the Budget? I think he meant 100 yrs from now after our grndchildren are done paying for his debt.

Libs enslave our childrens minds through Public Education seek now to enslave their bodies through welfare.

THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS-Leading the way since 1775! Semper Fidelis Brother and sister Marines!

Robert Gibbs can turn a three word answer into a five minute hem and haw(or even Hee Haw) session.

D'OHbaba says:"I only know what the telepromper and Michelle WANT me to know"

A leader leads from the front, a ruler pushes from behind. Get ur hands off my butt D'OHbama!

D'OHbama's Ego is writing checks even China won't cash!

Women would consider D'OHbama a typical man....lost and won't ask for directions and can't read the Constitution Map.

D'OHbama read the Constitution. He just considers it a fictional short story.

Think of the fun we could have with BO if a RW hacker got into the Telepromper....

Mr. D'OHbaba...Think of the Tea Parties as a "Learning moment"

I may not be able to throw 100 mph fastballs, but I could get it over the plate.

You can forget anniversaries, birthdays, and ppls names but you NEVER forget the Day your Drill Instructor calls you MARINE!

Remember when BO started his career is the home of Bill Ayers and DIDN'T know he was a terrorist?

My Bologna Hs a 1st name,it's B A R O K,My Bologna hs a 2nd Name its O b a m a.ask me y I'll say cuz Barok Obama has a way w/b o l o g n a

Almost amusing that the Man who sits the Furthest from the Field talks about having "Skin in the Game".

Remember when BO went to "Rev"Wright's church for 20 yrs and DIDNT know Wright was a racist?

This is one of MY favs...Remember the BHO TRANSPARENCY?

"The Jeffersons" new theme song today:"Moving back down frm the East Side cuz Obama took my piece of the Pie"

Biden, D'OHbama and Pelosi star in "The Bad, the Badder, and the ButtUgly"

Why is it not racist to have BET but would be if we had WET? (Besides it not sounding right?)

They need to schedule D'OHbama's Press Conferences later...He aint ready for Prime Time.

Remember, its all fun and games until D'Ohbama gets impeached.(Then its PARTY TIME!)

Those who can, LEAD, those who can't, RULE!

Word of advice to D'OHbama: Man who fart on Flames of Freedom get ass burned!

ALL new bills in Senate and Congress must be twitter Ready...no more than 140 chrs so we know they read them.

D'OHbamaLittle got hit in the head with an ACORN and now is running around telling us "The Sky is Falling!!"

Mr. POTUS: We can no longer wait to act. We need to see your resignation on Our desk by 8AM tomorrow Morning!

ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE ONE RIGHT.....They have the right to get the HELL OUT OF MY COUNTRY or be shot@

D'OHbama to taxpayers: "If I want your opinion, I would give it to you."

All of D'OHbama's TV appearances should have a warning label "Will cause Nausea and Brain damage" and be rated "L" for Lies

I will post more "Gems" later.
