The president has declared a state of emergency back in 2003 (as he recites in this executive order at the end of the paragraph that starts with “I, GEORGE W. BUSH”). That state of emergency has not been rescinded, to this date.

In a state of emergency, the president has the power to do whatever he wants, and you can’t complain - or else.

This is the clear, logical consequence of Americans’ acquiescing to their government claiming the right to pursue the anti-Christian doctrine of preemptive war.

If the president can launch a war against another country in order to prevent a potential, as yet unrealized future attack, then he can also prosecute a potential criminal at home - or confiscate ALL of his property - for acts that the prez (or his Secretary) simply “determine” might be committed in the future.


We are talking about the imposition, by executive order, of absolute, unrestricted tyranny and despotism in the name of “national security.”

Does this mean he will take your property away from you?

Not necessarily.

But you just gave him (or any future president) the power to do so at any time in the future if he (or she) think it may be a good idea!

Yes, it is you who gave him that power - because you didn’t do anything about it.

No point in blaming anybody else. It’s you who is at fault. If you sit back and wait for somebody else to act on your behalf, you have just given up any legitimate claim to your own right to life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness.

Are you going to act?

Better stand up.

If you are a Christian, stand up.

If you are a Democrat, stand up.

If you are a Republican, even a Neocon who thinks the president would never do such a thing -

STAND UP!!
This is no time for playing party politics. If continuing the war in Iraq is more important to you than even the very last shred of your own liberty, then what’s the point in fighting the Jihadists? You have already acquiesced to live exactly the way they want you to live - namely, without any rights, whatsoever.
