From Campaign For Liberty:
According to the latest reports, the Senate is expected to vote as early as tonight to reauthorize the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (FAA) for 5 years.
The statists hide behind this legislation to supposedly "justify" warrantless wiretapping of American citizens communicating with those overseas, among other things.
Despite the best efforts of liberty-minded activists and even some members of Congress, no one outside of a select few know for sure how many innocent Americans have had their privacy violated or which of their overseas communications are being monitored (it could be all) due to the FAA's sweeping permissions.
And as is usually the case with these kinds of bills, instead of holding an honest debate on the legislation's effects - as is promised when these bills are first passed - the politicians do their best to ram through the reauthorization votes without any challenge.
But a few senators, including Rand Paul, are refusing to let the FAA pass without a fight.
Senator Paul has introduced an amendment that is also set to be voted on tonight.
His amendment would make it clear that Americans' communications are protected from all unwarranted searches and seizures - no matter who wants the information.
You and I must give these statists exactly what they fear the most - a bruising fight in defense of our fundamental rights.
It is up to us to drag their unconstitutional schemes into the light of day and mobilize more opposition against their plans.
So please, take just a moment today to fight for your liberties by contacting your senators and urging them to take the following actions:
1. Publicly stand in defense of the Constitution by voting for the Rand Paul amendment to the FAA.
2. Make another statement for liberty by voting against final passage of the FAA and halting this statist scheme entirely.
3. Go even further by doing everything in their power to find out how many innocent Americans have been affected by the kind of security state power grabs protected by the FISA Amendments Act.
If you're not sure of your senators' contact information, you can find it here.
Time is running out, so please take action right away.
In Liberty,
John Tate
President

Also urge them to make a clear statement in support of the Constitution by voting against final passage of the FAA.
I value my privacy so if you value yours send in those emails to your save your privacy from the statists. Time is short so act quickly.

Tell Congress to oppose McCain's NDAA
from Campaign For Liberty:
In their mad rush to get out of town before the holidays, the statists in Washington, D.C. are launching an all-out assault to rip as much liberty away from you and me as possible.
With the NDAA expected to be voted on in both houses of Congress TODAY, it's absolutely vital you contact your U.S. Representative and Senators IMMEDIATELY.
I've listed their names and phone numbers below for your convenience.
So please call and demand they vote against the NDAA.
Please note, there's not much time, so it's absolutely critical you act at once.
As you may remember, just a few weeks ago, an amendment was added to the NDAA to curtail the blatantly unconstitutional indefinite detention provision.
Of course, the statists said the amendment was "no big deal," and the new provisions didn't limit their power to throw American citizens in jail forever and throw away the key.
But their actions tell a different story.
The McCain-led Conference Committee just stripped this provision from the NDAA at the last minute.
Their goal is to ensure statists can continue secretly targeting American citizens and throwing them in jail for years or even decades without so much as ever giving them a trial!
This is outrageous.
That's why it's so critical you contact your Representative and Senators NOW and DEMAND they vote against the McCain NDAA.
Tell them to vote to STOP the indefinite detention of American citizens and vote against any defense authorization bill that includes this language.
Here are their names and phone numbers: click here
If you don't get through on your first try, please keep calling.
I hope those outside Arizona will also make a special call to Senator McCain's office at (202) 224-2235 to remind him of his sworn oath to DEFEND our rights – not strip them away in a blatant grab for power.
But please act now.
In Liberty,

P.S. The John McCain-led Conference Committee stripped the NDAA of the amendment designed to protect American citizens from being indefinitely detained.

I sure don't want to be locked up for no reason,I don't think anyone wants to. The best way to defend our liberties is stand up to nonsense like this. Tell your elected officials that you oppose McCain NDAA. Time is short,the moment is now.

Tell Senator Harry Reid to support S.202
From Campaign For Liberty:
"I think we should audit the Federal Reserve... there is no entity in the world that controls our lives more than the Federal Reserve System."
That's not just my opinion - Harry Reid himself said that.
But now that he has the chance to actually back up years of rhetoric with action, Harry Reid has become the major road-block to this historic legislation - he says he'd have to check with Ben Bernanke before even considering a Senate vote on Audit the Fed!
The partial audit of the Federal Reserve previously conducted thanks to our pressure revealed that Ben Bernanke put us on the hook for over $16 trillion - more than the entire U.S. national debt - to foreign banks, private corporations, and other cronies.
And this was done behind closed doors without congressional knowledge or approval.
Please watch the following video and give Harry Reid a call to demand he bring Audit the Fed up for a vote in the Senate!
Ben Bernanke and his secretive, spendthrift allies at the Fed should have to answer to the American people, and Harry Reid should hold his feet to the fire.
Instead, after Audit the Fed overwhelmingly passed the U.S. House, Harry Reid became the major obstacle standing between us and a vote in the Senate.
So please call Senator Harry Reid's office and let him know you support Audit the Fed.
Demand he bring S. 202 up for a vote right away.
In Liberty,
John Tate
President
P.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is stonewalling Audit the Fed, saying he would have to have a "serious conversation" with Ben Bernanke before allowing a vote.
Please call Reid and tell him you support an audit of the Federal Reserve and he should, too!
Demand he bring S. 202 up for a vote right away.
You can also email him and let him know where you're serious about auditing the federal reserve. You can see that Harry Reid himself favored auditing the fed. Let's tell him this is a good time to back up those words by bringing up and supporting S. 202.

Judgement in America
If you've ever seen Judgement At Nuremberg you know it is a excellent movie. If you haven't check TCM to see when its on next. I've seen it many times but this time I was able to seriously sit down and see the movie from beginning to end. It is set in post WW2 Germany in the city of Nuremberg to host the trial of nazi judges. Judges that rubber stamped whenever Hitler and the nazis wanted. Until after a time the trials conducted by the nazis served no other purpose but to punish those that did not believe with those in power to just shut up. It worked in the days of the inquisitions and crusades just as it served modern day dictators. The administration of justice(some have called it "the allies revenge")was conducted by the various allied partners: US,USSR,France and Great Britain. There were no allied attorneys to represent the nazi defendants,most refrained because helping the accused may be disadvantageous down the road so the defense was mainly conducted by German attorneys. What goes on in the movie is the various personalities and psychologies in play. The former jurists on trial range from Ernst Janning:at one time a pro-democracy judge who helped frame the constitution for the Weimar Republic who later went on to serve the nazis,wrestles with his decision on what he's done and does the best he can to rationalize it. He went along to get along. At the other extreme is Emil Hahn:a dedicated nazi judge that had no problem following the orders of the nazis because he was a nazi too. The only thing Hahn was sorry about is that Germany lost the war. The other two former judges were just rubber stamping the demands of the nazis with a little sadism thrown in. The psychologies of prosecuting attorney Tad Lawson: An American soldier who helped liberate the extermination camps on one side and Hans Rolfe on the other trying to salvage what remaining shred of dignity Germany still had left and reminded the world that they helped enable Hitler so they can blame themselves as well. Presiding over this case is American jurist Dan Haywood as the chief jurist. He is presiding over this case with two other American jurists. In the movie there is the American ideology clashing with the German ideology,between prosecutor and defense,respectively. Freedom for the individual,which is something we try to carry out and guard versus the good of society which is what the nazis cherished. The movie is fraught with rationalizations. From the doctors and nurses who performed sterilization (castrations) on those deemed intellectually inferior,while stating they think it is a barbaric practice that sickens them. Their protests are mostly rhetoric. They rationalize this by saying someone else with stand up to the nazis. Someone else will tell them this is unacceptable and they will reform their ways. Just wait until that someone else tells them off. They'll be sorry. Besides it's for the good of society. "It's for the good of society so let it happen" was allowed by the laypeople,professionals,government civil servants to the courts and chancellory. "It's for the good of society so let it happen" so no one dared to step up,to say "enough,no more". All through the fatherland you can hear the rhetoric "someone else will stop them". In the movie Haywood says that ever since he's been in Germany it is one rationalization or another by the native population. Fast forward to today. Civil Liberties being trampled upon while while being ignored by the media,an entity that is supposed to keep an eye on the government for the good of the people. However they don't. The old media has become a joke. They have the same topics over and over for the next 5-7 hours while you can spend the same amount of time on the net and never run across the same thing twice. There are statists eager and waiting to take away your freedoms just to enrich themselves. Those that screwed up radio and tv now want to screw up the net. The last bastion of freedom is the internet. the government tells us it's okay "to go along to get along". From throughout society we are told to obey. To go along to get along. If there are any problems someone else will fix it so don't worry about it. You have American Idol that promotes something the powers that be want you to be dazzled with. Fluff has replaced news: celebrity A fucking celebrity B is now more worthy than North and South Korea duking it out which also involves Russia and China at this point (just a scenario). We're being fed sugarcoated lies in the form of propaganda that falsely passes for "news". This can be done with the right person in office. In this case Barrack Obama (it could have be any left leaning black man) as the president. A black man could get further with this agenda than a white man could. If Obama were white Solyndra alone would have impeached him. The reason this is done by a black man is that America is in a hurry to absolve itself from its racist past and will do pretty much anything to accomplish that goal. It's a wet dream for the statists,a no-lose scenario--or is it? We can fight back. The net has leveled the playing field. Do we safeguard our freedoms and demand the lost ones restored or do we go along to get along? "Go along to get along" works real well in one place: the slaughterhouse. What do we do: fight back and take and preserve what is ours as a country or do we go along to get along? Which is it? We know where one road leads to and it's not good. Let's choose the other one.

Make the Senate vote on bills H.R. 459/S. 202
I got a heads up from Campaign For Liberty. They informing us to send email to our Senators and tell them to force Senator Harry Reid to bring bills H.R. 459/S. 202 to a vote. These bills are also known as "Audit the Fed" which will give Congress a chance to audit the Federal Reserve and find out what is really going on in there. The Federal Reserve is fighting us on this one. I wonder what they are hiding. Are you? Tell you Senators to force Harry Reid to bring this up for a vote,to support bills H.R. 459/S. 202 so we can all find out. Now is the time to write,no delay.
