Chicken in a Blizzard

Two years ago Chick-fil-A made national headlines when company president Dan Cathy spoke out in support of traditional marriage. Liberals and gays came unglued and launched massive protests against the restaurant chain.  Several mayors spoke out saying they would not allow any more Chick-fil-As to be built in  heir cities. 

They tried boycotting the Christian owned company, but that backfired. Instead, Chick-fil-A had a world record day with many locations selling out of food to the hundreds of thousands of supporters. Is it any surprise that the only news the liberal mainstream media has reported concerning Chick-fil-A has only been the negative?

Remember last week when the ice storm hit the south? The mainstream media showed footage of miles of cars stranded on the frozen interstates.  Several national news broadcasts that I saw
reported about school kids trapped on buses for almost 24 hours because of all of the ice and parents going frantic wondering where their kids were. 

In all of the icy gloom and doom, I bet you didn’t hear about the heroic and generous actions of a Chick-fil-A along Highway 280 in Birmingham , Alabama , did you? 

Mark Meadows, owner of the Chick-fil-A closed early the day of the storm and sent all of his employees home.  However, the employees and Meadows soon discovered that they were not going to be able to get home with all of the stranded motorists stuck on the roads.  Some of the cars near the restaurant had been stranded for up to 7 hours.

Audrey Pitt, manager of the Chick-fil-A described the conditions: “Our store is about a mile and a half from the interstate and it took me two hours to get there.  It was a parking lot as far as I could see.  At one point there were more people walking than driving.” 

Meadows and his employees fired up the kitchen and began preparing chicken sandwiches as fast as they could. They prepared several hundred sandwiches and then Meadows and his staff headed out and began distributing the hot meals to the stranded motorists on both sides of Highway 280.

Some of the drivers tried to pay them for the sandwiches, but Meadows and his employees refused to take a single penny. Pitt explained why: “This company is based on taking care of people and loving people before you’re worried about money or profit.  We were just trying to follow the model that we’ve all worked under for so long and the model that we’ve come to love. There was really nothing else we could have done but try to help people any way we could.”

However, Meadows and Pitt were not through with their Good Samaritan efforts.  They helped push cars off the roads, up inclines and whatever else they could do to help. Then they kept the restaurant open overnight so that stranded motorists could have a warm place to be.  A number of motorists slept in booths or on the benches.

Then in the morning, they again fired up the kitchen and prepared chicken biscuits for their overnight guests and once again they refused to accept any payment.  During that 24 hour period, this Chick-fil-A restaurant opened their kitchen, their doors and their hearts to hundreds of stranded motorists and they did so refusing to accept any payment.  As one source put it, Meadows and his staff lived up to the words Jesus spoke in Matthew 25:35 which states:

“For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in…”

Their actions were truly generous and heroic as they also braved the frigid temperatures to hand out hundreds of hot meals to complete strangers.  And I bet you never heard anything about this from the mainstream media.  Had it been a group of homosexuals or atheists, it would have been all over the news from coast to coast. It was too much against their liberal standards to report a Christian company doing something so positive for so many.

We need to support this and all Christian companies.

Pass this along and do the job of the media!

Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From?

Professor Ian Plimer's book in a brief summary.



PLIMER: "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland . Since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.

Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it’s that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and all animal life.

I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of abroad,nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 cent light bulbs with $10.00 light bulbs.....well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days.

The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes, FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud at any one time - EVERY DAY.

I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.

Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over One year - think about it.

Of course, I shouldn't spoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging' moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic activity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which
keeps happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.

And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter is that the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens every year.

Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the bogus 'human-caused' climate-change scenario.

Hey, isn’t it interesting how they don’t mention 'Global Warming' anymore, but just 'Climate Change' - you know why?

It’s because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these global warming bullshitartists got caught with their pants down.

And, just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposed on you that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.

It won’t stop any volcanoes from erupting, that’s for sure.

But, hey, .....go give the world a hug and have a nice day.

HOW TO DESTROY AMERICA ~ Ronald Reagan

We know Dick Lamm as
the former Governor of Colorado. In that context his thoughts are
particularly poignant. Last
week there was an
immigration overpopulation conference in Washington, DC., filled to capacity
by many of America's
finest minds and leaders. A
brilliant college professor by the name of Victor Hansen Davis talked about
his latest book, "Mexifornia," explaining how immigration - both legal and
illegal was destroying the entire state of California. He said it would
march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of The American
Dream.

Moments later, former
Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and gave a stunning speech on how
to destroy
America.


The audience sat spell
bound as he described eight methods for the destruction of the United
States. He said, "If you
believe that America is too
smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America. It is not
that hard to do. No
nation in history has
survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great
civilizations rise and fall
and that ‘An autopsy of
history would show that all great nations commit
suicide.’”


"Here is how they do
it," Lamm said.

"First, to destroy
America, turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural
country. History shows that no
nation can survive the
tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and
cultures. It is a bless-
ing for an individual to be bilingual; however,
it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar,
Seymour
Lipset, put it
this way: ‘The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not
assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy.’ Canada, Belgium,
Malaysia, and Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which
minorities
press for
autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria
suppressed an ethnic rebellion.
France faces difficulties
with Basques, Bretons, Corsicans and Muslims."


Lamm went
on:

"Second, to destroy
America, invent 'multi-culturalism' and encourage immigrants to maintain
their culture. Make it
an article of belief that
all cultures are equal; that there are no cultural differences. Make it an
article of faith that
the Black and Hispanic
dropout rates are due solely to prejudice and discrimination by the
majority. Every other
explanation is out of
bounds."

"Third, we could make
the United States an 'Hispanic Quebec' without much effort. The key is to
celebrate diversity
rather than unity. As
Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: 'The apparent
success of our own multi-
ethnic and multicultural experiment might have
been achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the domin-
ance
that once dictated ethnocentrism and what it meant to be an American, we are
left with only tolerance and plural-
ism to hold us together.' Lamm said,
"I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. I
would
replace the
melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure
that we have various cultural subgroups living in America enforcing their
differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their
similarities."

"Fourth, I would make
our fastest growing demographic group the least educated. I would add a
second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic to our
population. I would have this second underclass have a 50% drop
out rate
from high school."

"My fifth point for destroying America
would be to get big foundations and business to give these efforts lots of
money.
I would invest in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult
of 'Victimology.' I would get all minorities to think that
their lack of success was
the fault of the majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all
minority failure on the majority
placation."

"My sixth plan for America's downfall
would include dual citizenship, and promote divided loyalties. I would
celebrate
diversity
over unity. I would stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse
people worldwide are mostly engaged
in hating each other - that
is, when they are not killing each other. A diverse, peaceful, or stable
society is against
most
historical precedent. People undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation
together. Look at the ancient Greeks.
The Greeks believed that they
belonged to the same race; they possessed a common language and literature;
and they
worshipped the same gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic
games. A common enemy, Persia, threatened their
liberty. Yet all these bonds
were not strong enough to overcome two factors: local patriotism and
geographical condi-
tions that nurtured political divisions. Greece fell.
"E. Pluribus Unum" - From many, one. In that historical reality, if
we
put the emphasis on the 'pluribus' instead of the 'Unum,' we will "
Balkanize " America as surely as
Kosovo."

"Next to last, I would place all
subjects off limits. Make it taboo to talk about anything against the cult
of 'diversity.' I
would
find a word similar to 'heretic' in the 16th century - that stopped
discussion and paralyzed thinking. Words like
'racist' or 'xenophobe' halt
discussion and debate. Having made America a bilingual/bicultural country,
having establish-
ed multi-culturalism, having the large foundations fund
the doctrine of 'Victimology,' I would next make it impossible
to enforce our immigration
laws. I would develop a mantra: That because immigration has been good for
America, it
must always
be good. I would make every individual immigrant symmetric and ignore the
cumulative impact of millions
of
them."

In the last minute of his
speech, Governor Lamm wiped his brow. Profound silence followed. Finally he
said, "Lastly, I
would censor Victor Hanson Davis's book 'Mexifornia.'
His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If
you feel America deserves to
be destroyed, don't read that
book."

There was no applause. A
chilling fear quietly rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the
conference.
Every
American in that room knew that everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding
methodically, quietly, darkly,
yet pervasively across the
United States today. Discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are
ripping the
foundation
of our educational system and national cohesiveness. Even barbaric cultures
that practice female genital
mutilation are growing as we
celebrate 'diversity.' American jobs are vanishing into the Third World as
corporations
create a
Third World in America. Take note of California and other states. To date,
ten million illegal aliens and growing
fast. It is reminiscent of
George Orwell's book "1984." In that story, three slogans are engraved in
the Ministry of Truth building: "War is peace," "Freedom is slavery," and
"Ignorance is strength."

Governor Lamm walked back to
his seat. It dawned on everyone at the conference that our nation and the
future of this
great
democracy is deeply in trouble and worsening fast. If we don't get this
immigration monster stopped within three
years, it will rage like a
California wildfire and destroy everything in its path, especially The
American Dream.

If you care for and love our
country as I do, take the time to pass this on just as I did for you.
Nothing is going to happen
if you
don't!

that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under"

World bank insider Blows Whistle...

Subject: citizensoftheUSofA] World Bank Insider Blows Whistle on Corruption, Federal Reserve

http://www.thenewamerican.com/economy/economics/item/15473-world-bank-insider-blows-whistle-on-corruption-federal-reserve

Its never enough...
A former insider at the World Bank, ex-Senior Counsel Karen Hudes, says the global financial system is dominated by a small group of corrupt, power-hungry figures centered around the privately owned U.S. Federal Reserve. The network has seized control of the media to cover up its crimes, too, she explained. In an interview with The New American, Hudes said that when she tried to blow the whistle on multiple problems at the World Bank, she was fired for her efforts. Now, along with a network of fellow whistleblowers, Hudes is determined to expose and end the corruption. And she is confident of success.

Citing an explosive 2011 Swiss study published in the PLOS ONE journal on the “network of global corporate control,” Hudes pointed out that a small group of entities — mostly financial institutions and especially central banks — exert a massive amount of influence over the international economy from behind the scenes. “What is really going on is that the world’s resources are being dominated by this group,” she explained, adding that the “corrupt power grabbers” have managed to dominate the media as well. “They’re being allowed to do it.”

According to the peer-reviewed paper, which presented the first global investigation of ownership architecture in the international economy, transnational corporations form a “giant bow-tie structure.” A large portion of control, meanwhile, “flows to a small tightly-knit core of financial institutions.” The researchers described the core as an “economic ‘super-entity’” that raises important issues for policymakers and researchers. Of course, the implications are enormous for citizens as well.

Hudes, an attorney who spent some two decades working in the World Bank’s legal department, has observed the machinations of the network up close. “I realized we were now dealing with something known as state capture, which is where the institutions of government are co-opted by the group that’s corrupt,” she told The New American in a phone interview. “The pillars of the U.S. government — some of them — are dysfunctional because of state capture; this is a big story, this is a big cover up.”

At the heart of the network, Hudes said, are 147 financial institutions and central banks — especially the Federal Reserve, which was created by Congress but is owned by essentially a cartel of private banks. “This is a story about how the international financial system was secretly gamed, mostly by central banks — they’re the ones we are talking about,” she explained. “The central bankers have been gaming the system. I would say that this is a power grab.”

The Fed in particular is at the very center of the network and the coverup, Hudes continued, citing a policy and oversight body that includes top government and Fed officials. Central bankers have also been manipulating gold prices, she added, echoing widespread concerns that The New American has documented extensively. Indeed, even the inaccurate World Bank financial statements that Hudes has been trying to expose are linked to the U.S. central bank, she said.

“The group that we’re talking about from the Zurich study — that’s the Federal Reserve; it has some other pieces to it, but that’s the Federal Reserve,” Hudes explained. “So the Federal Reserve secretly dominated the world economy using secret, interlocking corporate directorates, and terrorizing anybody who managed to figure out that they were having any kind of role, and putting people in very important positions so that they could get a free pass.”

The shadowy but immensely powerful Bank for International Settlements serves as “the club of these private central bankers,” Hudes continued. “Now, are people going to want interest on their country’s debts to continue to be paid to that group when they find out the secret tricks that that group has been doing? Don’t forget how they’ve enriched themselves extraordinarily and how they’ve taken taxpayer money for the bailout.”

As far as intervening in the gold price, Hudes said it was an effort by the powerful network and its central banks to “hold onto its paper currency” — a suspicion shared by many analysts and even senior government officials. The World Bank whistleblower also said that contrary to official claims, she did not believe there was any gold being held in Fort Knox. Even congressmen and foreign governments have tried to find out if the precious metals were still there, but they met with little success. Hudes, however, believes the scam will eventually come undone.

“This is like crooks trying to figure out where they can go hide. It’s a mafia,” she said. “These culprits that have grabbed all this economic power have succeeded in infiltrating both sides of the issue, so you will find people who are supposedly trying to fight corruption who are just there to spread disinformation and as a placeholder to trip up anybody who manages to get their act together.… Those thugs think that if they can keep the world ignorant, they can bleed it longer.”

Of course, the major corruption at the highest levels of government and business is not a new phenomenon. Georgetown University historian and Professor Carroll Quigley, who served as President Bill Clinton’s mentor, for example, wrote about the scheme in his 1966 book Tragedy And Hope: A History Of The World In Our Time. The heavyweight academic, who was allowed to review documents belonging to the top echelons of the global establishment, even explained how the corrupt system would work — remarkably similar to what Hudes describes.

"The powers of financial capitalism had a far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole,” wrote Prof. Quigley, who agreed with the goals but not the secrecy. “This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations."

But it is not going to happen, Hudes said — at least not if she has something do to with it. While the media are dominated by the “power grabber” network, Hudes has been working with foreign governments, reporters, U.S. officials, state governments, and a broad coalition of fellow whistleblowers to blow the entire scam wide open. There has been quite a bit of interest, too, particularly among foreign governments and state officials in the United States.

Citing the wisdom of America’s Founding Fathers in creating a federal system of government with multiple layers of checks and balances, Hudes said she was confident that the network would eventually be exposed and subjected to the rule of law, stopping the secret corruption. If and when that happens — even if it may be disorderly — Hudes says precious metals will once again play a role in imposing discipline on the monetary system. The rule of law would also be restored, she said, and the public will demand a proper press to stay informed.

“We’re going to have a cleaned-up financial system, that’s where it is going, but in the meantime, people who didn’t know how the system was gamed are going to find out,” she said. “We’re going to have a different kind of international financial system.... It’ll be a new kind of world where people know what’s going on — no more backroom deals; that’s not going to keep happening. We’re going to have a different kind of media if people don’t want to be dominated and controlled, which I don’t think they do.”

While Hudes sounded upbeat, she recognizes that the world is facing serious danger right now — there are even plans in place to impose martial law in the United States, she said. The next steps will be critical for humanity. As such, Hudes argues, it is crucial that the people of the world find out about the lawlessness, corruption, and thievery that are going on at the highest levels — and put a stop to it once and for all. The consequences of inaction would be disastrous.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

Nunc Pro Tunc: The Coming Day of Burn Barrels and Blessings

By: James Wesley, Rawles
http://www.survivalblog.com/2013/01/nunc-pro-tunc-the-coming-day-of-burn-barrels-and-blessings.html

This is a standing invitation to my fellow Americans: If congress ever enacts a law mandating the registration and/or a production ban of detachable magazine semiautomatic rifles then you are hereby invited to the town square of your local community. There, burn barrels will be set up and we will publicly burn Form 4473s, FFL Bound Books, state and local registration records, and the sales receipts for every firearm in the United States. On that same day, FFL holders and public officials holding electronic firearms records will simultaneously erase those records, permanently and irretrievably. (Using special file erasure software such as Blancco, X-Ways, and Stellar Wipe, or though the physical destruction of disk drives.)
Spontaneous Gatherings, Spontaneous Combustion
This burn barrel day--likely to be held the day after the President signs any new draconian legislation--will include speeches, public prayers, and the blessing of those who have gathered by ministers, rabbis, and priests.
The core of the activities on that day will be stalwart public defiance of any new unconstitutional law(s), the open and notorious destruction of records that might be used to enslave us, and vocal public affirmations of solidarity of free men and women, in the face of tyranny. This will be a defining moment for America--a line drawn in the sand. We will forthrightly declare that we will not obey any unconstitutional law and that we will treat it dismissively, as if it had never been enacted -- nunc pro tunc. We will pledge ourselves to the defense of liberty, both individually and collectively. We will vow that if ever called to jury duty, we will nullify any unconstitutional laws, vacating the charges against the accused, in accordance with our long-standing right as jurors. (See: www.FIJA.org.)
The Law is On Our Side
We will publicly re-affirm some long standing precepts of American jurisprudence, to wit:

§ 195 Generally
The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, whether federal or state, though having the form and name of law, is in reality no law(1) but is wholly void(2) and ineffective for any purpose.(3) Since unconstitutionality dates from the time of its enactment and not merely from the date of the decision so branding it,(4) an unconstitutional law, in legal contemplation, is as inoperative as if it had never been passed(5) and never existed;(6) that is, it is void ab initio.(7) Such a statute leaves the question that it purports to settle just as it would be had the statute not been enacted.(8)

Since an unconstitutional law is void, it follows that generally the statute imposes no duties,(9) confers no rights,(10) creates no office(11) or liabilities,(12) bestows no power or authority on anyone,(13) affords no protection,(14) is incapable of creating any rights or obligations,(15) does not allow for the granting of any relief,(16) and justifies no acts performed under it.(17)

Once a statute is determined to be unconstitutional, no private citizen or division of the state may take any further action pursuant to its provisions.(18) A contract that rests on an unconstitutional statute creates no obligation to be impaired by subsequent legislation.(19) No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law,(20) and no courts are bound to enforce it.(21) A law contrary to the United States Constitution may not be enforced.(22) Once a statute has been declared unconstitutional, courts thereafter have no jurisdiction over alleged violations.(23) Persons convicted and fined under a statute subsequently held unconstitutional may recover the fines paid.(24)

Never Again!
Recognizing the many sad lessons of civilian disarmament and subsequent genocides in the 20th Century, we will make bold and forthright statement: Never Again! We will not submit to the unlawful decrees of tyrants. We will not meekly go their jails and internment camps. We will fight for our liberty, to our dying breath.
Come Armed, Come Masked
I recommend that all adults who publicly assemble at these burn barrel events do so armed, as is our right. And those who come armed should also wear masks, to protect themselves from malicious prosecution. I plan to wear a Guy Fawkes mask, but you can wear a bandana, face muffler, or the face mask of your choice. Joining you, also wearing masks, will be many mayors, sheriffs and their deputies, chiefs of police and their officers, town council members, clergy, and people of all walks of life. We vastly outnumber the tyrants. The tyrants deserve nothing but our scorn and derision. Their fate is already sealed.
Plausible Denial
After this fateful day has come and gone, FFL holders and public officials will be able to recount: "I had no choice. My records were taken by men with guns who were wearing masks!" (So they'll have no excuse if they don't cooperate with this nationwide display of civil disobedience.)
God Bless The Republic. Down with Tyrants. We Will Prevail!

Obama's Internet sales tax... You loose!

Dear Elvin,

For weeks now, statists like Harry Reid - along with crony capitalists trying to use government power to crush their competition - have been leading the charge for taxing online purchases.

And now, Barack Obama has joined the chorus of tax-and-spenders supporting the National Internet Tax Mandate.

This dangerous bill is currently on the Senate floor, where final passage could be voted on by the end of this week.

Please take a moment and read John Tate's email below about Campaign for Liberty's Battle Plan to Defeat the Internet Sales Tax.

Don't let Congress get away with taking a MASSIVE bite out of American prosperity.

Read John's email below and take action IMMEDIATELY!

In Liberty,

Ron Paul

P.S. If you've already taken action, thank you.

But if you could go one step further and chip in $10 or $20 to help fund Campaign for Liberty's Battle Plan to Defeat the Internet Sales Tax, I'd greatly appreciate it.

---

Dear Ron,

Harry Reid is so desperate to RAM through a federally mandated Internet sales tax that he completely skipped the committee process to bring the bill to the floor.

And the vote on final passage could take place by the end of this week.

That's why it's vital you sign your "No National Internet Tax" petition to your U.S. Senators IMMEDIATELY.

I'll give you the link in a moment, but first let me tell you about Campaign for Liberty's "Battle Plan to Defeat the Internet Tax Mandate."

As you know, the National Internet Tax Mandate would hand the federal government massive new controls over state tax policies and set the stage for government at all levels to take another helping of your money via the Internet.

And every American will feel the pinch - even those who don't use the Internet or only log on to check email once in a blue moon.

Under the Internet Tax Mandate:

*** All Americans would see their taxes go up, as big-spending governors of BOTH parties work with the federal government's IRS goons to implement a state sales tax on ALL goods purchased online.

Big-spending governors are running their states into bankruptcy, and - instead of reducing spending - they want the IRS to force YOU to bail them out with new Internet taxes!

*** Essentially provides big-spending governors new bailout money through the federal government imposing more taxes on their citizens.

We're already seeing this in Virginia, where Governor "Tax Hike Bob" McDonnell is counting on Internet taxes to help fund his transportation boondoggle!

*** The door would be opened for governments to access and keep records of our Internet purchases.

Imagine Barack Obama's hand-picked bureaucrats with a record of every online purchase you make - t-shirts, bumper stickers, books - EVERYTHING you buy.

*** New and higher taxes would CRUSH economic growth and set the stage for massive new regulations that threaten the very existence of the Internet.

Make no mistake. This is all bad enough on its face.

But it's hardly the end of it.

You and I both know, under the guise of "national security," Washington, D.C. bureaucrats are already feverishly looking for new ways to trace, track, and register all Americans' online activity.

What you read. What you buy. What videos you watch. What you write about THEM.

That's why it's vital you sign your "No National Internet Tax" petition IMMEDIATELY.



Ron, you and I have a shot at stopping this massive tax hike, but this fight will not be easy - or cheap.

But unless you and I pull out all the stops - the tax-and-spenders WILL get their way.

That's why, in addition to your signed petition, I hope you'll agree to make a generous contribution to help with this critical fight.

Your generous contribution will help pay for Campaign for Liberty's "Battle Plan to Defeat the Internet Tax Mandate" - a massive mail, phone, and Internet program designed to mobilize a grassroots army of patriots to defeat this massive tax hike.

Campaign for Liberty has sounded the alarm via hard-hitting mail and email to alert the American people to facts about the National Internet Tax Mandate.

As a result, we have generated over 250,000 petitions opposing this dangerous scheme.

On Monday, C4L will flood the office of EVERY Senator with faxes from their constituents demanding they vote against the National Internet Tax Mandate.

But I'm afraid that won't be enough.

You see, a few weeks ago, the statists held a "test vote" in the Senate on the National Internet Tax Mandate.

Unfortunately, the "test vote" passed with overwhelming "bipartisan" support.

The good news is, although just a "feel good" measure, this "test vote" gave us a target list of 37 Senators to turn up the heat on to vote against any attempt to tax online purchases.

This includes Republicans such as Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Tom Coburn (R-OK), Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Bob Corker (R-TN), Mark Enzi (R-WY), and Jeff Sessions (R-AL), to name a few.

And it also includes Democrats such as Kay Hagan (D-NC), Mark Pryor (D-NC), and Mark Begich (D-AK), who are up for re-election in 2014.

Campaign for Liberty has prepared hard-hitting emails, direct mail, and Google and Facebook Internet ads calling on targeted Senators to oppose the National Internet Tax Mandate.

But Campaign for Liberty needs an immediate and massive influx of dollars to put this plan into action.

If you and I can raise the resources to put the full battle plan into action, we can send a strong message to the tax-and-spenders that the American people will not stand for passage of the National Internet Tax Mandate.

That's why it's vital you act TODAY!

Ron, you and I are staring head-on at a massive tax hike and invasion of privacy rights - all brought to us by high-priced D.C. lobbyists, big corporations, and establishment insiders and their puppets in Washington.

Harry Reid believes he has the votes to ram through the Internet Tax Mandate.

But just like with Barack Obama's anti-gun agenda, I'm counting on you to help me prove him wrong once again.

So, please sign your "No Internet Tax Mandate" petition to your U.S. Senators IMMEDIATELY.



And if you can, please make a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50, $25 - or whatever you can afford - to Campaign for Liberty to help in this crucial fight.

If you can afford more, by all means, please contribute what you can - and as much as you can - to this battle.

Every dollar - every red cent - you and I can put into defeating the National Internet Tax Mandate will be critical to winning this fight.

So, please, make a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50, $25 - or whatever you can afford- TODAY!

Your signed petition and your generous contribution could help make the difference between winning and losing this battle.

And this is not a fight you and I can afford to lose.

I'm convinced that by mobilizing Americans against the National Internet Tax Mandate, you and I can stop this massive tax hike dead in its tracks.

But we don't have much time. Harry Reid is forcing a vote THIS WEEK.

Please sign your petition and make a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50, $25 - or whatever you can afford - to help with this effort.

It's vital you act TODAY!

In Liberty,

John Tate
President

P.S. Harry Reid is so desperate to ram through the National Internet Tax Mandate that he completely skipped the committee process to bring the bill to the floor.

And the vote is going down this week.

That's why it's vital you sign your "No National Internet Tax" petition IMMEDIATELY.

After you sign your petition, please make a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50, $25 - or whatever you can afford - to Campaign for Liberty to help in this crucial fight.
