Mount Washington Cam
On the summit of Mount Washington.
1803 -
Chief Justice
John Marshall
declares that any act of
U.S.
Congress
which conflicts with the
Constitution
is void.
Editor's Note: Please keep in mind before
you can become a policeman, Judge, Congressman, Senator, President of
The U.S.A., a Cabinet member or hold any other high office in our
government, you must first take an oath to uphold and protect our
Constitution above all other laws. Failing to do so is an act of
treason, punishable by death by U.S. law. Here are some
things our constitution will not allow, Thus they are all
constitutionally Null and Void. The Patriot
act, The Department of Homeland Security, Warrantless Spying on
Americans, The War on Drugs, The war in
Afghanistan, The War in Iraq, The War on Terrorism, a Preemptive strike
War with Iran and the list goes on and on...
In short, Bush and every member of his cabinet are
guilty of high treason and so are ALL U.S. congressmen and senators who
voted for any of the things listed above.

Bush Administration Breaks Record
Administration Borrows more from Foreign Nations
than Previous 42 Presidents Combined
A release from John Tanner (D-TN)
Washington, D.C. - President George W. Bush and the
current Administration have now borrowed more money from foreign governments and
banks than the previous 42 U.S. presidents combined.
Throughout the first 224 years (1776-2000) of our nation's history, 42 U.S.
presidents borrowed a combined $1.01 trillion from foreign governments and
financial institutions according to the U.S. Treasury Department. In the past
four years alone (2001-2005), the Bush Administration has borrowed a staggering
$1.05 trillion.
"The seriousness of this rapid and increasing financial
vulnerability of
our country can hardly be overstated," said Rep. John Tanner (D-TN)

Email Forward Of The Week !.
NOT A NEWS STORY... OR IS IT ?
As everyone knows, the U.S. Constitution established a
"REPRESENTATIVE
form of government" with an elected Congress to make laws and an elected
President to either veto or execute them and otherwise administrate the
government.
Not surprisingly, the REPRESENTATIVE system was immediately corrupted by
money interests that gained control or influence over politicians who
could personally benefit in one form or another by the material support,
even if it was nothing more than election to public office.
The truth is that the Constitution and government of the U.S. has never
reflected the simple WILL OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, especially in foreign
policy! While polls showed that most Americans have been opposed or
sharply divided over U.S. military violence and involvements, it has
continued from the days of aggression across the North American
continent to invasion in foreign lands.
For the record, "the War of 1812 was so controversial that New
Englanders seriously considered seceding from the Union to avoid
supporting it. The Mexican-American War aroused such passion that
Abraham Lincoln gave a stirring speech in Congress against it", said
author Richard Shenkman in his book "I Love Paul Revere Whether He Rode or
Not" (1991).
The Spanish American War provoked a national debate about imperialistic
aggression, and World War I in Europe divided the U.S. government to the
extent that Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan resigned his
office in protest. Almost as many people were opposed to the Korean War
as ultimately condemned the Vietnam War forcing its end, and the current
war in Iraq appears equally unpopular.
The U.S. was involved in SEVERAL HUNDRED wars and other military
operations in which only five were declared "war" by Congress, according
to the research of Michael Kronenwetter, author of "The Military Power of
the President" (1998).
The sad truth of the REPRESENTATIVE form of government in the U.S. is
that it more accurately represents what President Dwight Eisenhower
warned was a dangerous "Military-Industrial Complex" (bearing such
labels as Illuminati, Cabal, and New World Order).
It is well known that military forces thrive on the expenditure of tax
monies for weapons and equipment, war industries thrive on tax funds to
pay for these things, and the American people are coerced like sheep to
pay the tax bill and shed blood on ever-expanding battlefields around
the world on one excuse or another, including a "terrorist threat". Is
it not possible that U.S. expansionist policies have played into the hands
of terrorists?
The bottom line is, the U.S. government consistently serves the
Military-Industrial Complex and fails to represent the true desires of
most Americans.

Dear IRS,
Enclosed is my 2005 tax return showing that I owe $3,407.00 in
taxes.
Please note the attached article from USA Today, wherein you will see the
Pentagon is paying $171.50 for hammers and NASA has paid $600.00 for a

Please apply the overpayment of $22.00 to the "Presidential Election
Fund," as noted on my return. You can do this inexpensively by sending
them one 1.5" Phillips Head screw (article from USA Today detailing how
HUD pays $22.00 each for 1.5" Phillips Head Screws is enclosed for your

It has been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I look forward to
paying it again next year.

Be very wary, because as soon as you start driving, one of them will

..."Many have criticized Bush for staging the war in Iraq in
order to seize Iraqi oil fields. However, those critics can't explain why Bush
would want to seize those fields - he could simply print dollars for nothing and
use them to get all the oil in the world that he needs. He must have had some
other reason to invade Iraq. Bush must have went into Iraq to defend his Empire.
Indeed, this is the case: two months after the United States invaded Iraq,
the oil for food program was terminated, the Iraq EURO accounts were switched
back to dollars, and oil was sold once again only for U.S. dollars. No longer
could the world buy oil from Iraq with EUROs. Global dollar supremacy was once
again restored. Bush descended victoriously from a fighter jet and declared the
mission accomplished - he had successfully defended the U.S. dollar, and thus
the American Empire." ..

The time has come to investigate the Bush
Administration's role in the prisoner abuse and humiliation that has
motivated our enemies in the war on terror and endangers the

And That's Buying Blue ! *****
You may have voted blue, but every day you unknowingly help dump millions
of dollars into the conservative war chest. By purchasing products and services
from companies that donate heavily to conservatives, we have been compromising
our own interests as liberals and progressives.
BuyBlue.org is a concerted
effort to lift the veil of corporate patronage, so consumers can make informed
buying decisions that coincide with their principles.
Currently, we are developing an extensive and interactive website where users
will be able to monitor corporate activity in real time. We cannot do this
alone; we need an army of Blue buyers to be the eyes and ears of this movement.
All we have to do is put our money where our mouth is to make it profitable to
be ethical.
Our collective buying power WILL make a difference, and we WILL be heard.

New York State Facts - kids room![]()
What is a Billion?
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one
advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into
perspective in one of its releases:
A billion seconds ago - it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago - Jesus was alive
A billion hours ago- our ancestors were living in
the Stone Age.
A billion dollars ago -
was only 8 hours and 20
minutes, at the
rate that the Federal Government in Washington D.C. spends it.
Here is what he had to say...
1 Billion Seconds ago it was 1973 not 1959
1 Billion Minutes ago Jesus had died and been risen for over 60 years
Depending on the Budget the 8hrs 20min might actually be a lot faster.
(The 8.333hrs is dependent on a yearly budget of 1.051 Trillion dollars)
His source: www.snopes.com
Since the annual budget that President Bush proposed for the up coming year is
over 2.4 Trillion dollars... That would mean that our government is now spending
your tax dollars at the rate of over 2 billion dollars every 8 hours !
*****************
Despite what President Bush says, the war on Iraq is not over. The cost of this
war to the American tax payer is going up every second. Since we can't put a
price on human lives, we will just give you the figures in tax dollars that the
American tax payers have paid as of right now. These figures were provided by
the Costofwar.com
website.
