Olympia Snowe, health care, and the Seventeenth Amendment

Olympia Snowe
|
Sen.
Olympia Snowe is a liberal, progressive Democrat masquerading as a Republican.
Snowe supports killing unborn babies, is pro sodomy, anti-Second Amendment,
voted no on prohibiting minors crossing state lines for an abortion, voted
yes on adding sexual deviants ("gays") to the definition of
hate crimes, supports the massive fraud called global warming and is for
cap and trade. Snowe wouldn't know what the U.S. Constitution said if
James Madison stood in front of her and read it word for word.
That
crone has been in spot light lately as being the possible 'swing' vote
to support the illegal health care "reform" bills now being
massaged. Another Ponzi scheme that will further bankrupt this country
and do NOTHING towards real health care coverage reform that
should be undertaken by the states. On October 16, 2009, I watched the
CEO of Blue Cross, Scott Serota, on Neil Cavuto (FAUX News Network) state
that it was important to get young, healthy Americans "into the pool"
to lower costs of health care. The same taxing scheme as social security
- a program that is TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN THE HOLE. See: 'Fiscal
gap' in the trillions. The numbers have grown.
What
does any of this have to do with the Seventeenth Amendment that was not
legally ratified?
On October
14, 2009, I watched Snowe explain in an interview on FAUX that HER constituents
want this unconstitutional national health care. Shame on them. Those
people in Maine care nothing for the U.S. Constitution or a free market.
During this sound bite interview, Snowe continued to reinforce that she
works for her constituents in Maine and what they want.
Here's
a clue for Snowe: I live in Texas and you don't represent me. You're trying
to shove your toxic liberal agenda down my throat.
Let's
look at what the framers of the U.S. Constitution did when they created
the federal government and breathed life into Congress. The U.S. House
of Representatives was to be the legislative body for the people. Each
district within the states of the Union would elect an individual to Congress
(Art. I, Sec. II) who would represent them under Art. 1, Sec. 8 of the
U.S. Constitution.
The
framers were adamant that the states remain sovereign entities and have
equal representation in Congress. Thus, the U.S. Senate would be comprised
of two senators from each state. (Art. I, Sec. III) Those senators would
be appointed by their state legislature to go to Washington, DC to represent
the interests of the state, not the people. If they didn't, the state
could recall them, fire them and hire someone new. The Senate confirms
federal judges and supreme court justices. The Senate must advise and
consent to ratification of treaties that have been negotiated and agreed
to by the President -- Art. II, Section II, U.S. Constitution.
Those
duties are critical because the outcome affects the well being and prosperity
of the individual states of the Union. NAFTA, CAFTA, WTO and the hundreds
of other treaties killing our sovereignty have come from an unlawfully
seated senate since 1913. That includes our participation and financial
rape from being a member of the communist United Nations. Not to mention
the infestation of activist judges on the bench killing our rights within
the states.
When
the Seventeenth Amendment was announced ratified, which is clearly was
not, the states lost their suffrage rights in Congress. Let me give you
two more examples. Two of the most vile individuals ever to disgrace the
halls of Congress: John McCain and Lindsay Graham.
McCain
has cherry picked which parts of the U.S. Constitution he likes and ignores
the law of the land for his own personal gain. Arizona has been the gateway
state for the illegals invasion. Old Juan has done everything to give
these criminals (illegal aliens) a free pass and he's going to again,
soon. Instead of standing for the State of Arizona and doing everything
in his power to protect the people of Arizona, McCain has been an active
participant in the destruction of Arizona by the illegals invasion and
treaties like NAFTA.
If the
Seventeenth Amendment were not "in effect," the Arizona State
Legislature could have (and I believe would have) recalled McCain, fired
his corrupt backside and replaced him with a senator that would represent
the interests of the State - not illegals aliens and special interests
groups who vote for him.
The
same applies to the equally corrupt, sleazy, Lindsay Graham (R-SC). Graham
doesn't represent me, yet he votes for treaties, judges and other legislation
that directly affects my life and my family's. I have no way
to vote him out of office as I do my representative in the House.
Graham
votes against the best interests of the State of South Carolina and they
are powerless to get him out of office. Mob rule. Just like the other
states of the Union who can't get rid of these counterfeit U.S. Senators
who vote against the best interest of their state. If you doubt my argument,
I hope you can take the time to read the links below. Make no mistake:
Lindsay Graham is a one world government lapdog who has sold out this
republic for power and money.
As if
corrupt political animals like Graham, Snowe, Collins and McCain aren't
bad enough, we then have fools like Sen. Russ Feingold proposing a constitutional
amendment to have governors appoint U.S. Senators. See
his ignorant vomit here. Feingold spews: "The vacancies in Illinois
and New York have made for riveting political theater, but lost in the
seemingly endless string of press conferences and surprise revelations
is the basic fact that the citizens of these states have had no say in
who should represent them in the Senate." Senators from Vermont or
Hawaii were never meant to represent me. The senate was created to represent
the interest of the state they were appointed by and that is the beauty
of separation of powers.
This
must never go any further. The states MUST stop it: S.J. Res. 7 and
H.J. Res. 21: A Constitutional Amendment Concerning Senate Vacancies”
- Senate Judiciary Committee - Subcommittee on the Constitution - Date:
March 11, 2009, Time: 10:00 AM, Room: Hart-216 - Official Hearing Notice/Witness
List
A VERY
dangerous event to our republic is to take place in December. This is
another screaming example of why the Seventeenth Amendment is so toxic:
Thatcher
adviser: Copenhagen goal is 1-world government
'Global warming' to be used as 'pretext' for 'change'
October 17, 2009
"A
former science adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher says
the real purpose of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen
on Dec. 7-18 is to use global warming hype as a pretext to lay the foundation
for a one-world government.
"At
[the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in] Copenhagen this
December, weeks away, a treaty will be signed," Monkton told a Minnesota
Free Market Institute audience on Thursday at Bethel University in St.
Paul.
"Your
president will sign it. Most of the Third World countries will sign it,
because they think they're going to get money out of it. Most of the left-wing
regimes from the European Union will rubber stamp it. Virtually nobody
won't sign it," he told the audience of some 700 attendees."
The
usurper in the White House is a devout Marxist who is no longer hiding
the agenda of the world elites who control him. Dozens of these corrupt
and insane lunatics in the U.S. Senate believe this monstrous scam called
'global warming.' This treaty has to be approved by them. The Constitution
does not authorize the U.S. Senate or a sitting president to flush our
sovereignty down the sewer in favor of being sucked into a global government.
But, what are the states going to do about it? Sit around
like they have for decades while the destruction continues? Pass more
resolutions?
Representatives
in New Hampshire and Montana have attempted to bring this fraud to the
forefront with resolutions; see
this news item. Tragically for their states, the political machines
killed their heroic efforts. Just like the stupid, fact challenged Democrats
did this past March in Montana by refusing to vote for an honest money
bill.
The
explosion of Tenth Amendment Resolutions passed by the states of the Union
this past year has been impressive. However, as I have written, as well
as learned scholars like Dr. Edwin Vieira, they have no teeth
for enforcement. The
Committees of Safety is a nationwide organization pushing to put teeth
into those Tenth Amendment Resolutions with honest money bills and reconstituting
the organized militia under the State as REQUIRED by the Second Amendment.
Come January 2010, the states had better become warriors instead of "what's
good for the party."
How
much more will the state legislatures take before they realize they have
lost all their sovereignty guaranteed them under Art. 1, Sec. 4: The United
States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form
of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on
Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature
cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.
There
are those who say it wouldn't make any difference if the Seventeenth Amendment
was "done away with" because the state legislatures are so corrupt
anyway, they would just appoint the same counterfeit senators now in office
under a law that doesn't exist. We don't know that. There are many fine,
truly patriotic Americans serving in our state legislatures. Many more
are waking up and that is why we have seen this explosion of Tenth Amendment
Resolutions. The states must move in January to crush the destroyers set
to finish off our constitutional republic or the states will find themselves,
as I have said so many times, nothing more than occupied territories under
the boot of one world government.
There
are those who say we are at a cross roads in history: freedom or slavery.
No, we are on the brink and that conference in Copenhagen is so dangerous,
we have to do everything in our power to demand the U.S. Senate reject
ANY global warming scam treaty. The
Barnett v Obama trial is scheduled for January 26, 2010; a little
over a month after that Copenhagen meeting where the usurper is scheduled
to sign another treaty to destroy our republic. You can thank Congress
for being such cowards to let this mess with Obama/Soetoro go so far.
When
Bill Benson did the research on the Sixteenth Amendment, he also discovered
the fraud on the ratification of the Seventeenth was even worse. This
past April, several generous Americans sponsored my trip to the National
Archives in Washington, DC. I retrieved every single document from the
states regarding the vote on the Seventeenth Amendment. They are court
certified.
They
tell the true story of the non ratification under the strict ratification
process. If you read Jefferson's Manual and the Rules of the House of
Representatives of the United States with a Digest of the Practice 1909
by Asher C. Hinds, Clerk at the Speaker's Table and How
Our Laws Are Made, Revised and Updated, September 1999 by Charles
W. Johnson, Parliamentarian, U.S. House of Representatives, you will see
the process is rigid and for a good reason.
No changes
can be made to an amendment. Not any. Look at this one from California.
California
is one of the states which clearly did not properly ratify the amendment.
As I said, I have hundreds of pages and I'm trying to get them scanned
so everyone can see the proof that this isn't just some wild conspiracy
theory. Many of the states weren't even in session during the ratification
period. I had hoped to be done by now, but since I'm only one person and
my web master also has his real job, things go slowly.
The
question is: What state legislature will finally step forward and take
on the Seventeenth Amendment because it sure won't come from the liars
and crooks in Congress. Your state legislature won't act unless there
is such an outcry, they will be forced to act. Your voice is the only
thing that will push the engine.
