California’s Dreaming

Californiamap SC Californias Dreaming

In early May, we like to visit California. It is spectacular, beautiful, and special. Our hero Ronald Reagan once said that “If the pilgrims had landed in California, we would have never found the rest of the country.” He was right. Today, he would be wrong.

Pilgrims were productive settlers, and today successful and productive citizens are fleeing en masse from California. It is a shame.

First stop on our trip is Oakland. Floyd has a meeting with an innovative medical specialty firm trying to start in California. The owner of the firm has started many companies, all in California. Early on the agenda for discussion was talk of moving out of the Golden State to another less regulated, business friendly state.

The wife of the CEO leaned over to me and said, “as soon as our son is out of high school, we are out of here.” Maybe they will join us in business-friendly Arizona or move on to the new Mecca for business, Texas. She continued, “they don’t seem to get it; HP and Intel will never build another plant in California.”

Until the 1990′s, California was run by a coalition of pro-business Republicans and Democrats. Then things changed. A tipping point was hit through a combination of illegal immigration, environmental regulations, and union control of government. Business started to flee, and they took conservative voters with them as they left. Demographics is destiny, and California surged to the left. This surge left compounded the problem, and more business left.

Business leaving caused government revenue to slip, so taxes were hiked. This caused even more to leave. Union control of state budgeting shifted priorities. Salaries and benefits rocketed upward; infrastructure was ignored and neglected. Roads and transportation suffered. And more business left.

California used to be first in airplanes; most aviation companies have now fled. California used to be first in defense, and now this sector is shrinking. California agriculture is suffering from lack of water. This is a direct result of failure to invest in new water capacity. California was a leader in energy production, but now most of costal California is off limits to new oil production.

With all the jobs California used to produce, real estate flourished. Now with empty store fronts and empty factories, real estate is suffering. Even tourism is down.

You would think this string of disasters would teach leaders in government to be more business-friendly. They haven’t learned, and taxes, regulation, and harassment of business is growing.

We continued down the coast, and near Santa Barbara, we met the CEO of another firm. The message was the same. He lamented, “California used to be the best place to do business, now it is the worst, and Governor Jerry Brown is only making it worse.”

Schools, communities, parks, good roads, and all the factors that made California so wonderful can only get better when business does well. If leaders want to lead again in lifestyle, they must first restore the business climate.

Taxpayers On Hook For First Lady’s Visit

May 5, 2012 By 6 Comments

448px Michelle Obama Taxpayers on hook for first ladys visit

Taxpayers footed the bill for a Tucson Police Department security detail assigned to protect first lady Michelle Obama during her political fundraising stop here on Monday.

Tucson police Sgt. Maria Hawke said the department is still calculating how much was spent on the 39 officers, including 14 who were paid overtime, in response to an Arizona Daily Star inquiry. But she said TPD does not anticipate being reimbursed by the Obama campaign or anybody else.

A helicopter, one patrol car, 14 motorcycles and one bomb-trained dog were also used during Michelle Obama’s 2 1/2 hours in the Old Pueblo, Hawke said.

Michelle Obama was in town to raise money for her husband’s reelection campaign.

In Defense Of Arizona’s Immigration Law

May 1, 2012 By Leave a Comment

The Obama administration’s challenge to the Arizona immigration statute SB1070 is not about its popularity, or whether the statute is wise or unwise policy. Legislatures are permitted to enact laws thought unpopular or unwise by others. And as Chief Justice Roberts observed, and the administration’s lawyer agreed, the challenge is also not in any way about civil rights or racial profiling.

The challenge to SB1070 before the Supreme Court is over the narrow question of whether that statute enacted by the Arizona legislature conflicts with federal immigration statutes enacted by the United States Congress. Since Wednesday’s oral argument at the Supreme Court, supporters of the Arizona statute are increasingly hopeful that the high court will uphold most if not all of SB1070, and its opponents correspondingly resigned to that result.

SB1070 requires state and local law enforcement to verify the immigration status of anyone legally stopped if there is also “reasonable suspicion” of unlawful status, and authorizes arrest without warrant upon “probable cause” to believe that a public offense has been committed that makes a non-citizen removable. Those provisions are entirely consistent with provisions in the federal immigration law protecting the ability of state and local officers to communicate with Federal immigration officers to ascertain someone’s immigration status, and which mandate that the Federal government “shall respond” to an inquiry from state or local government seeking to verify or ascertain immigration status of any individual for any lawful purpose.

SB1070 criminalizes unlawful presence of non-citizens without legal documentation. But federal immigration law already criminalizes failure by non-citizens to register with the federal government and “at all times carry with him and have in his personal possession” documentary evidence of such registration. So no conflict with federal law there.

Federal law punishes employers for hiring persons not lawfully in the U.S. Arizona’s statute prohibits a person not lawfully in the U.S. from seeking work and makes it a crime. Is that a conflict, or an acceptance by Arizona of the invitation from Congress “to participate in the process of enforcing federal immigration laws”? If the high court wants to “balance” its decision on SB1070, this part of SB1070 is the most likely to be found in conflict with federal law, though that conflict is certainly debatable and unclear.

At the root of the national debate over immigration is the unwillingness of elected officials of both parties, including President Obama, to decide whether the U.S. should have open borders with no numerical limit on immigration, or whether we should enforce an annual numerical limit on immigration to the U.S. as enacted by Congress. It’s a simple question, no limits or limits?

They don’t want to repeal the numerical limit and declare the borders open because that would be unpopular. But they also don’t want to enforce the numerical limit enacted by Congress because that would require actually removing people from the U.S. who have entered in violation of the legal limit, and that could cost them votes and political support, too.

So we end up with the current illogical policy of advocating a legal limit but refusing to actually enforce that limit against anyone who hasn’t been convicted of a serious crime and who isn’t a national security threat. Arizona, with 370 miles of international border with Mexico, has been left in the lurch by that incoherent policy.

Arizona is believed to have an illegal population of 400,000 out of 6.4 million total residents, which has triggered an on-going financial crisis over the increased costs for public education, emergency health care, and law enforcement and incarceration. Janet Napolitano, now Homeland Security Secretary in the Obama administration, was Arizona’s governor back in 2005 when she declared an immigration emergency in the state and complained that, “The federal government has failed to secure our border, and the health and safety of all Arizonans is threatened daily by violent gangs, coyotes and other dangerous criminals.”

Whether you think SB1070 is good policy or not, everyone should understand why the Arizona legislature enacted it, why it continues to be supported in Arizona and other states affected by illegal immigration, and why the Supreme Court is likely to uphold it.

Legislators Ignore Constitutionality Of The Laws They Enact

April 30, 2012 By 1 Comment

 

On April 25th the Tennessee State Senate voted unanimously to allow federal and state law enforcement officials full access to the medical records of the citizens of Tennessee. According to SB 2407, “…state and federal law enforcement personnel authorized to have access under 53-10-306 shall be permitted to have real time electronic access to the database…” The statute continues by stating that access is permitted “without the necessity of obtaining a search warrant.” It is a law which is scheduled to go into effect on July 1, 2012 as “the public welfare [requires] it.”

Outraged Tennessee residents who wrote and emailed their state senators about the Constitutionality of the law received the following replies from 2 of the lawmakers:

1.) “Legislation is only unconstitutional when the high court deems it so,” and

2.) “Then I’m sure it will be struck down in court.”

As Liberty Legal Foundation head counsel Van Irion so rightly puts it, “Both of these statements reflect a shocking disregard for the Constitution, for the Senators’ Oaths of Office and for the rights of their constituents.”

From Roe v Wade in which legal authority was granted via the convenient manufacture of a Constitutional “right to privacy,” to the 70 year old Wickard v Filburn ruling which held that the congressional power to regulate commerce extended to forbidding a farmer growing wheat for his own family, legislators have enjoyed a nearly limitless increase of their already substantial power thanks to the deference of the Supreme Court and the judiciary nationwide. After all, courts assume written statute will be Constitutional for it is the job of legislators to consider not only the effect but the Constitutionality of their work.

Some legislators are undoubtedly ignorant as to this Constitutional requirement of their position. Others—it often seems a majority—are happy to deliberately exceed the proper and legal limits of their Constitutionally granted power in the pursuit of ever greater authority over the lives and activities of the American public.

“Every member of all three branches of government has an obligation to follow the Constitution,” writes Irion. Were it not the case, “…there would be no need for them to take an oath to uphold [it].” 

But over the years, too many lawmakers have begun to exercise authority based on the notion that they can literally get away with anything, enact any law they wish regardless of its Constitutionality.

As a case in point, New York Senator Chuck Schumer is already working on a measure to “get around” an expected Supreme Court ruling upholding the Arizona immigration law argued before the Court this week.  Rather than abide by the decision of the nation’s highest court, Schumer’s only interest is in subverting it, revealing his contempt both for the authority of the court and for his own responsibility to the Constitution. (4)

To legislators of Schumer’s ilk the problem is not their fundamental assault on the rights of the American public, but rather making certain their choice of legislative language will pass muster with the Justices. If the semantics are right, the law must be acceptable!

Whether it be a result of deliberation or ignorance, the abuse of legislative power exhibited by lawmakers must be ended. By whatever means are necessary, the American public must be willing to get it done.

Forgerygate, Or How The US Was Tricked: The Conclusion Of Operation Sideshow

April 30, 2012 By 3 Comments

obama speech 7 SC Forgerygate, or How The US Was Tricked: The Conclusion of Operation Sideshow

Part 11: Conclusion

Facts and nothing but the facts with documents that have been deemed forgeries by a credible Law Enforcement Agency of the State of Arizona

A press gaggle had been hastily called on the afternoon of April 26, 2011 to debut Obama’s newly found long-form birth certificate for the next morning, the 27th.  This briefing was done “old school” with the press corps being barred from using any audio or video recording of the event forcing them to use only pen and paper for any notes.  This practice was extremely rare within the James S. Brady press briefing room and was usually only followed when they were on Air Force One or Two or other secure locations for security purposes.  We do not have to guess the motives of the president’s agents at this gaggle, they were being deceptive.

The complicity of the State of Hawaii and several officials in their guarded and misleading statements from the Health Department and the Attorney Generals office had started in 2008 one week before the general election.  The changing of the name of birth certificates or certifications (COLB) sometime in 2009 is another reason to doubt their veracity.  Their duplicitous statements regarding the ability to receive a true and certified copy of an original document and impeached by the requirements of the State of Hawaii Homelands Heritage Agency itself, to require only the long-form birth certificate prior to sometime in 2009.  Hawaiian Statute §338-18 refutes all the hyperbole of the officials in this matter as it was only “departmental policy” of the Health Department and not “law” as these officials continually stated.  This corroborates the statements of Mile Zullo from the Maricopa County Sheriff’s office about Hawaiian officials being complicit at least at some level; by their own deceptive statements, they have in essence self-impugned their own credibility.

We have the contradictory comments and actions of Neil Abercrombie the Governor of Hawaii who vowed to release Obama’s birth records in December of 2010 and by late January 2011 had retreated from all of his previous statements.  However, on Tuesday January 18, 2011 he stated to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser that Obama did not have a hospital-generated long form birth certificate and the official record only consisted of a “unspecified notation or listing“.  Four short months later on April 27, 2011 the Governor makes a press release of his own in conjunction with Obama’s “sideshow” message and tacitly intimates that Obama has a hospital generated long-form birth certificate.  It is signed by Dr. David A. Sinclair who had conveniently died in 2003 as evidenced by the now fraudulent and discredited document posted on whitehouse.gov.  This  forgery had been substituted for the official “certified certificates of live birth” he received on the 25th through his personal attorney.

The long-form birth certificate is so poorly forged that it claims Obama’s Father’s race classification as “African” when the National Center for Health Statistics of the Public Health Service used the official term “Negro” to denote a person of color in 1961.  All States and Territories were required to use the National Center for Health Statistics race classifications by federal law in the collection and reporting of vital statistics.  Pencil mark notations are seen on his long-form certificate, and was a national reporting requirement from the National Vital Statistics Division which required data be taken from certain birth certificates for statistical analysis.  The oddity about Obama’s certificate is that is was only required on “even” numbered documents, his forged document is numbered “61 10641″ an “odd” numbered document so it would not have had these penciled-in notations for data collection.  On it’s face it is a fraudulent document without any type of analysis needing to be performed.

Officials of a credible law enforcement agency of the State of Arizona has leveled charges of forgery and fraud and that “probable cause” of a federal crime exists over Obama’s latest “Certificate of Live Birth” and his Selective Service Registration card.  Without having one, he could not have been elected to federal office.  Investigators also found that Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) microfiche records for the week of Aug. 1st thru 7th of 1961 from Hawaii were missing at the National Archives in Washington.

Selective Service Administration officials have refused as of March 28, 2012  to permit examination of Obama’s original  Select Service Registration card to court approved forensic examiners of Maricopa County Sheriff‘s office investigators.

Alabama State Supreme Court Justice Tom Parker filed a concurrence in denial of a mandamus petition over a request for an original copy of his long-form birth certificate be filed with the State in the Courts Order dismissing the petition.  This statement lends credence that Obama’s fraudulent birth documents would have significant evidentiary value of forgery and fraud in the proper forum though was made in a failed ballot challenge from Alabama.  Justice Parker is referring to the findings by Maricopa County Sheriff‘s office in his concurrence.

We have so many questions and odd facts surrounding our president they are worth noting and discussing here:

His adoption records by Lolo Soetoro is another unanswered question which would sully the nativity narrative from his book Dreams from my Father and destroy his claim to citizenship.

It is also the little things: not showing any reverence for the National Anthem, when the flag is raised, every child is taught this from an early age, much less the exclusive education Obama received.

The ability to recite with almost perfect intonation the Muslim call to prayer after being absent from Indonesia a Muslim Nation for 36 years is baffling and astounding since he was only 10 years old when he left.  However, the reporter may not know how it should sound, given this then Obama is definitely a Manchurian candidate and belies a deeper story about his past that is unknown.

Obama tells a journalist about his Muslim faith, then is quickly corrected by the journalist as being a Christian, this is definitely something one does not make a mistake about, which is it?  Believing that there are 57 States in our Nation, he lived in the 50th State, why does he not know this.

The little details seem so difficult for him.

Canadian Talk Show Host, Ezra Levant, characterized the servile bow to the Saudi Prince in April 2009 as he commented:

“Americans Bow to No One, they are not of a Monarchy, much less a deep servile bow to the Saudi King.”

(Note: you should listen in its entirety to this commentary)

Our State Department throughout the years has created unique diplomatic protocols to recognize our distinction as a “Constitutional Republic” and not a Monarchy.  We take fealty to the Constitution not a Man or Woman of Royal Heritage as a Nation that believes in self-rule and the Rule of Law, we bow to no one.  Powerful people with ties to a Saudi Prince purportedly paid for his Harvard education and put his “deep servile bow” in perspective.

An employee of the TAC Corporation was cooperating with the FBI in 2008 over a passport data breach of Obama’s records which was managed by John Brennan, he was an advisor to Obama‘s campaign at the time.  Mr. Brennan then became a National Security advisor to Obama effectively ending any inquiry into his part in the matter.  The poor employee was murdered in cold blood under mysterious though fortuitous circumstance for Obama and Mr. Brennan.

Summation and Conclusion

I have given an honest due diligent effort to research this issue and have used the words, deeds and actions of the players in this matter to impeach their statements and call into question their motives for their behavior.   The only record of the release of the forged “certificates of live birth” on April 27, 2011 is the transcript produced by the White House.

It appears a bait and switch of the forged document was substituted for the real certificates Obama physically received in fact on April 26, 2011, as this is only statement regarding it’s authenticity made by him “no matter what we put up.”  We are also lacking any statements from Ms. Corley; the president’s personal counsel on what it is that actually resides on whitehouse.gov.

The very real possibility that he does have a long-form birth certificate by affidavit and is now more than likely the reason to continue to secret all his records in the State of Hawaii and elsewhere is more than plausible; it is most likely as PROVEN by Governor Abercrombie.

We have been shown a simple method for anyone to ascertain that the president’s long-form birth certificate is a forgery by simply printing two copies from whitehouse.gov and matching the type between two lines of text.  Nick Chase developed this method, I encourage everyone to use his method and prove it to yourself.

Obama’s aides, officers and agents created a false narrative and media style negative hype campaign with “Operation Sideshow” with the sole objective and purpose to place a forged document on a federal government website.   The news media agencies in this nation should be investigating these grave matters to find out who has perpetrated any possible wrongdoing, by and against the individuals named in this investigation.

The unwillingness of Congress and the Courts to investigate and prosecute this matter is baffling and disturbing as the Constitution appears to be a dead document to all our branches of Government, except of course to the people, as in “We the People.”  To do otherwise only mocks the rule of law and openness in government and calls into question our natural and unalienable right to a free and open press and our many Constitutional guarantees and treats our citizens as subjects and not free Men and Women to determine our own destiny.

We are a free and able people that deserve Obama’s respect and admiration as he works for us, as we certainly do not work for him.  Furthermore, this travesty of credibility of our president robs the American people of the dignity of our heritage as a Nation founded on self-rule and the rule of law with no one being above the law, not even our President!
