			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><span style="color: #800000">State of Wisconsin Taxpayers UNITE!</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color: #000000"><span style="color: #ff0000">Taxpayers of Wisconsin join ol&#8217;Capt. Karl with this Civil Remedial REJECTION of &#8220;sneaky&#8221; taxation by The tyrants of The State of Wisconsin.</span>  Either they face us with their taxes directly and clearly or we don&#8217;t pay them!  Don&#8217;t put them in ultility bills that we HAVE TO pay to live.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color: #000000">Here is Capt. Karl&#8217;s letter to Wisconsin Public Service:</span></h3>
<p>Dear Wisconsin Public Service:</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline">Explanation of Wisconsin Taxpayers Civil Rejection 28 Act.</span></h3>
<p>Enclosed along with a recent bill we received from your electric service company, was a notice stating;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px">Beginning September 28, 2009, Wisconsin Public Service customers in the state of Wisconsin will begin seeing a “Wisconsin 2009 Act 28” fee on their monthly electric bill.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px"> This charge is a result of a provision included in the Wisconsin Legislative budget bill, which requires that all Wisconsin electric utilities collect a fee from customers to help fund District Attorney salaries and benefits across the state. The charge will appear on customers’ bills through June 30, 2011, unless additional action is taken by the legislature.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px"> For WPS, this means that our residential customers will pay about $3.24 annually, while the charge for commercial customers will be close to $10 annually. The fee is to be charged per electric meter or service, so customers with multiple accounts could see higher charges.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px"> If you have any questions, or would like more information about Act 28, please contact the Department of Administration at 866-432-8947 or visit their Web site at <a href="http://www.homeenergyplus.wi.gov/">www.homeenergyplus.wi.gov</a>.</p>
<p>           **************************************************************** </p>
<p>Electricity has become an essential part of living in America.  I find it heinously appalling that the State of Wisconsin would attach ‘General State of Wisconsin Operational Taxes’ to a utility bill of such life supporting necessity.  What irks me the most about this is the obvious Wisconsin tax incrementalism that is certainly to follow over the course of the next few months and years on our utility bills, for utilities necessary and essential for life itself,  now that the tyrannical spendthrift legislators have their despotic &#8220;camel’s nose&#8221; under the tent.  Doesn&#8217;t electricity cost enough already?</p>
<p>By what right does the oppressive State of Wisconsin Legislators have to force Wisconsin businesses, like Wisconsin Public Service, to do their dirty work for them?</p>
<p>Please be advised, therefore, that I, as a customer of Wisconsin Public Service and a Wisconsin Taxpayer, hereby rejects payment of the Wisconsin Act 28 Fee, which has nothing to do with your electrical service, and that this fee will be subtracted from all future bills with the balance for the electrical service to be paid in full as per the due date provided.</p>
<p>Please be further advised that a copy of this e-mail will be going out to over FIFTY Freedom and Liberty organizations across the State of Wisconsin one being the humongous Americans For Prosperity.  Additionally I will be submitting this letter to many Wisconsin bloggers for posting on the Internet for Wisconsin Taxpayers and Wisconsin Public Service customers to view.</p>
<p>This constant insult to our intelligence and our family finances, due to legislators not cutting the State budget like our families have to do continuously, is coming to an end.  I feel that it is awful for the Wisconsin Government to put your company in the middle between us and them in the attempt to mask their tax increases on us.</p>

<p>A group of Kansas state legislators are proposing an amendment to the <a title="Kansas Constitution" href="http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Kansas_Constitution">Kansas Constitution</a> to preserve the freedom of Kansans to provide for their health care.</p>
<p><a href="http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Mary_Pilcher-Cook">Sen. Mary Pilcher Cook</a> (R-Shawnee) and Reps. <a title="Brenda Landweher" href="http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Brenda_Landwehr">Brenda Landwehr</a> (R-Wichita) and <a title="Peggy Mast" href="http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Peggy_Mast">Peggy Mast</a> (R-Emporia) and other proponents of health care choice announced their effort to seek the amendment and their opposition to federal control of health care Tuesday.</p>
<p>Landwehr was first to address the audience gathered at the <a title="Wichita Independent Business Association (WIBA)" href="http://www.wiba.org/">Wichita Independent Business Association </a>about the proposed amendment.</p>
<p>“It will preserve and protect the rights of individuals to make their own health care and health insurance decisions. It doesn’t belong with the government. It doesn’t belong with our insurance companies. It belongs to the individuals. It also belongs to the physicians that we choose to do business with.”</p>
<p>The group planned bus stops in Wichita, Emporia, Topeka and Overland Park to make the announcement.</p>
<p>A news release (see bel0w) includes the text of the resolution and the proposed 16th Article to the Kansas Constitution which states in part:</p>
<blockquote><p>“A law or rule shall not compel, directly or indirectly, any person, employer or health care provider to participate in any health care system.</p>
<p>“A person or employer may pay directly for lawful health care services and shall not be required to pay penalties or fines for paying directly for lawful health care services.”</p></blockquote>
<div id="attachment_1585" style="width: 193px"><img style="margin: 5px 6px" src="http://kansas.watchdog.org/files/2009/10/DrWATSON-183x300.jpg" alt="DrWATSON" width="183" height="300" /> Dr. George Watson </div>
<p>Dr. George Watson a Park City, Kansas, physician and president of the <a title="Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, Inc." href="http://www.aapsonline.org/">Association of American Physicians and Surgeons</a>, said he was there to help inoculate Kansans against the effects of “Potomac Fever.” He said the “fever” infects well-meaning representatives of both parties and causes swelling of the head to the point that they forget who elected them.</p>
<p>“With this swollen head the formerly sane representatives pass government mandates, many of which are unconstitutional and many are also unfunded.”</p>
<p>Watson said that the amendment might not protect federal representatives from infection but it will protect Kansas citizens from being effected by the epidemic in Washington.</p>
<p>During a brief question-and-answer period Watson said the group has their work cut out for them. “The fight is on right now between the government bureaucrats and the insurance companies and it is all about control. It isn’t about health care. It’s about control.</p>
<p>“We have to stand up for the patients in order to be sure that you as a patient have the freedom to choose which doctor you go to, which hospital you go to and the kind of care that you’re going to receive. And we can’t guarantee that we can change Washington but we can take a stand right here in the state for constitutional values and we can ask a question every time they pass something, ‘Is this constitutional?’ And a lot of it isn’t.”</p>
<p><em><a title="Wichita Eagle" href="http://www.kansas.com/">Wichita Eagle</a></em> reporter Dion Lefler asked Landwehr, “Does Kansas have the power to do this?” The quick response from the small audience included shouts of, “Yes we do,” and, “We created the federal government.”</p>
<p>“We’ve been given rights by the Constitution and we’re going to uphold those,” Landwehr said in response.</p>
<p>Much of the presentation and the group’s foundation are built on individual liberties guaranteed by the <a title="U.S. Constitution" href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.overview.html">U.S. Constitution</a>.</p>
<p>During the 2009 legislative session Pilcher Cook and 23 other state senators co-sponsored Senate <a href="http://www.pilchercook.com/TenthAmendment/">Concurrent Resolution 1615</a>. The bill reaffirms the <a title="10th Amendment" href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.billofrights.html#amendmentx">Tenth Amendment to the Constitution</a> of the United States, preserving to the people and the states all powers not specifically vested in the federal government. The bill, which will be high on the Senate’s agenda during the 2010 session, “serves notice to the federal government to cease and desist certain mandates; providing that certain federal legislation be prohibited or repealed; and directing distribution.”</p>
<p>Several states have already passed <a href="http://www.tenthamendmentcenter.com/">similar legislation</a> reaffirming states rights under the 10th Amendment and others have bills pending. In June Arizona’s legislature <a href="http://www.tenthamendmentcenter.com/2009/06/26/arizona-hcr2014-national-health-care-nullification/">approved legislation</a> to constitutionally override any law, rule or regulation that requires individuals or employers to participate in any particular health care system. The measure will be on the 2010 ballot.</p>
<p>One Wichita audience member said the “hands off my health care” bus should be renamed, “hands off my freedom.”</p>

<div>
<p>David Hamilton is a hard Left, <a href="http://bench.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MGY3ZjMyNWMxMGVmNmQ3OWM0ZjAzNzkxNjNlZDA3NDY=">former ACORN fund-raiser</a> and <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;client=firefox-a&amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&amp;hs=7AZ&amp;q=david+hamilton+abortion+record&amp;start=10&amp;sa=N">abortion radical</a> who was rated <a href="http://spectator.org/blog/2009/11/09/conservative-leaders-oppose-da">“not qualified”</a> by the ABA.</p>
<p>Now, via LifeNews, he is<a href="http://www.lifenews.com/nat5689.html"> federal judge:</a></p>
<blockquote><p>The Senate voted today 59-39 to confirm a pro-abortion federal judge President Barack Obama appointed to become a new appeals court justice. David Hamilton, of Indiana, is the first pro-abortion judge Obama selected, but he was held up for months because of his extreme views.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 125px"><img src="http://blogs.kansas.com/weblog/files/hamilton-115x150.jpg" alt="hamilton" width="115" height="150" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Judge David Hamilton - Activist Judge</p></div>
<p>With less than 60 votes, the Senate could have defeated the nomination had lawmakers voted Tuesday to sustain the filibuster pro-life advocates launched against Hamilton.</p>
<p>The vote saw all but one Republican, Indiana Sen. Dick Lugar, who is nominally pro-life, vote against Hamilton while all Democrats supported his nomination except two who were not present for the vote.</p>
<p>However, the cloture vote saw no Democrats joining the 29 pro-life Republicans who supported it and a defection of some of the more liberal Republicans in the caucus.</p>
<p>Americans United for Life president Charmaine Yoest said Hamilton should have been defeated because “judges should uphold Constitutional restrictions on abortion.”</p>
<p>“As a District Court judge, Hamilton promoted his radical pro-abortion agenda. His promotion to the Seventh Circuit” is a “serious concern to the pro-life community,” she told LifeNews.com.</p>
<p>Hamilton was tapped by Obama in March to fill a vacancy on the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.</p>
<p>As he promised he would do, pro-life Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama led the filibuster and said Hamilton should be opposed in part because of his pro-abortion views.</p>
<p>Sessions noted how Hamilton kept an informed consent measure from being enforced in Indiana, thereby prohibiting women from getting information about abortion’s risks and alternatives so they can find positive alternatives.</p>
<p>“And for seven years, through a series of rulings, Hamilton kept it form being enforced. This case is a blatant example of allowing personal views to frustrate the will of the people and the popularly elected representatives of the government of Indiana,” Sessions said. “This appeared to me to be obstructionism.”</p>
<p>Sen. Jim DeMint, a pro-life senator from South Carolina, agreed.</p>
<p>“Judge Hamilton is the definition of an activist judge and is clearly not qualified to sit on a court of appeals,” DeMint said during the debate. “Hamilton, who spent years working with the ACLU and ACORN, has used his position on the bench to drive his personal political agenda.”</p>
<p>The pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List objected to Hamilton and said it worries about future Obama nominees.</p>
<p>“If Judge David Hamilton is considered a blueprint for the next judge President Obama will nominate for the U.S. Supreme Court, America is in trouble,” Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the organization, told LifeNews.com.</p></blockquote>

Amendment.</p>

<p>The Income Tax Instruction to the United States Congress adopted by the Continental Congress cites several essential facts in U.S. law, including irrefutable documentation establishing that the 16<sup>th</sup> Amendment is void, <em>ab initio</em>, due to its failure to be properly ratified, and that any direct, un-apportioned tax on the labor of any American is wholly unconstitutional.  The resolution cites the U.S. Supreme Court holding that labor (and the fruits thereof) are, “…the most sacred and inviolable” property of the citizens of the nation.  (Citing <em>Butcher’s Union Co. v. Crescent City Co</em>., 111 U.S. 746, 757)   </p>
<p>The tax resolution also calls for Congress to execute the immediate cessation of the (unlawful) imposition of the practice of withholding of earnings from the paychecks of American citizens and for the Congress to immediately release and restore all citizens wrongfully imprisoned as a result of the “unconstitutional application of the income tax” (laws). </p>
<p>The Civic Actions recommended by the Congress for the People to end the Income Tax fraud include for the People to contact their local sheriff and demand cooperation with the citizenry to provide protection from (unlawful) federal and state tax enforcement actions (including fraudulent, non-judicial “administrative” IRS liens and levys), that citizens prepare to replace or otherwise recall or impeach any sheriff who refuses to protect their local citizens from “…rogue federal agents acting under color of law,” and for citizens to prepare themselves to withhold their monies as a means to secure Redress. </p>
<p>As to the Second Amendment Right to Keep and Bear Arms, the resolution of the Continental Congress declares that all regulations, state and federal, which are repugnant to the express language of the Second Amendment are “…null and void – including but not limited to, illegal and unconstitutional restrictions on open and/or concealed carry.” </p>
<p>The arms resolution calls for the citizenry to coordinate with their local county Sheriff in establishing a Constitutional Militia, inherently separate from the state National Guard.  Such militia would be a constitutional defense force, “comprising all citizenry capable of bearing arms and under proper authority, in defense of themselves and the states.” </p>
<p>Official copies of these resolutions and others will be released shortly for public inspection and distribution.  Committee and sub-committee work on “Remedial Instructions” for state and federal officials will by decree, end at midnight Wednesday (Nov. 18). </p>
<p>Starting tomorrow (Thursday) , the Congress begins two and a half days of intense deliberations, turning their sole attention to debating and adopting a comprehensive set of potent “Civic Actions” every American can implement, <em>en masse</em>, to effect a peaceful restoration of Constitutional Order.</p>
<p>These lawful, (non-violent) civic actions, (fully lawful and protected by the Right to <em>enforce</em> the First Amendment Right to Petition), will be designed to significantly affect the functioning of both state and federal institutions which have been complicit in enabling or otherwise aiding or allowing the destruction of the Constitution and/or the Fundamental Rights of the People.</p>
<p>On Saturday afternoon, the agenda plans for the Delegates set to move to adopt the full package consisting of First Amendment Petitions for Redress of Grievances, “Remedial Instructions” to be served upon state and federal officials, and the slate of “Civic Actions” designed for everyday Americans to implement to resist the tyrants and engage in the battle to restore Liberty. </p>
<p>The final package generated by the Congress will be formally known as the “Articles of Association” and signed (Saturday afternoon) by the Delegates of Continental Congress 2009.  Means are currently being developed for citizens everywhere across America to likewise sign the Articles of Association and join the battle to hold our government accountable to the Law.</p>
<p>The current intent for the Articles of Association is that when “x” million (tbd) Americans publicly commit to personally embrace and execute at least some portion of the (peaceful) plan of Civic resistance, the plan of “Civic Actions” will be fully activated and its full effects soon manifest against our errant institutions of government. More details will be announced following the conclusion of the CC2009 assembly on November 21.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Now I sit me down in school 
Where praying is against the rule 
For this great nation under God 
Finds mention of Him very odd. 
]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4><span style="color: #0000ff">It has been reported to The Liberty Tree Lantern that this was composed by a fifteen year old:</span></h4>
<h4>Now I sit me down in school<br />
Where praying is against the rule<br />
For this great nation under God<br />
Finds mention of Him very odd.</h4>
<h4>If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights.<br />
And anytime my head I bow<br />
Becomes a Federal matter now.  </h4>
<h4>Our hair can be purple, orange or green,<br />
That&#8217;s no offense; it&#8217;s a freedom scene.<br />
The law is specific, the law is precise.<br />
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.  </h4>
<h4>For praying in a public hall<br />
Might offend someone with no faith at all<br />
In silence alone we must meditate,<br />
God&#8217;s name is prohibited by the state.  </h4>
<h4>We&#8217;re allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,<br />
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks..<br />
They&#8217;ve outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.<br />
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.</h4>
<h4>We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,<br />
And the &#8216;unwed daddy,&#8217; our Senior King.<br />
It&#8217;s &#8216;inappropriate&#8217; to teach right from wrong,<br />
We&#8217;re taught that such &#8216;judgments&#8217; do not belong.</h4>
<h4>We can get our condoms and birth controls,<br />
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.<br />
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,<br />
No word of God must reach this crowd.  </h4>
<h4>It&#8217;s scary here I must confess,<br />
When chaos reigns the school&#8217;s a mess.<br />
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:<br />
Should I be shot; My soul please take!</h4>
<h4>Amen</h4>
<h4><span style="color: #0000ff">Two Questions from The Liberty Tree Lantern:</span></h4>
<ol>
<li><span style="color: #0000ff"><strong>Is the above prayer true in its representations?</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #0000ff"><strong>How did we get so far from our roots, American heritage, and our unique &#8220;American&#8221; culture that this &#8220;silent&#8221; prayer addresses?</strong></span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff"><strong>May God Help Us.   Look at how &#8220;The MATRIX&#8221;,  secular humanism, and evil forces resulting in mis-interpetations of Constitutional intent has beguiled our society and our students.  We MUST get back to our &#8220;American&#8221; roots which are founded upon our Creator as clearly written in The Declaration of Independence itself, not to mention numerous documents written by the hand of our Founding Fathers.</strong></span></p>
<h3><span style="color: #0000ff"><span style="color: #ff0000">May America, as a whole and Americans as individuals seek and acknowledge our God before he tramples out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored!  With the collapse of The MATRIX (our perceived economy based on almost worthless pieces of green and black paper printed out of thin air) being 1 1/2 -  2 1/2 years away from today, WE DO not have much time to choose.  God&#8217;s truth is marching on!  Whether some of us want to acknowledge him in  1  1/2  -  2 1/2 years or not.  We have a <strong>rendezvous </strong>with destiny. </span></span></h3>

<p> <br />
Dear C4L (Campaign for Liberty)  Member,</p>
<p>A few weeks ago, we sent out an alert that Representative Mel Watt was attempting to water down H.R. 1207 in the House Financial Services Committee.</p>
<p><strong>The latest reports we have received have informed us that a vote on the Watt amendment could come TODAY!</strong></p>
<p>There’s still time for us to stop this attack on Audit the Fed!  <a href="http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/3617452:5259055823:m:1:175336857:12D57505C1EDCF26E00D65FB7F9436C7">Click here to get a full list of Financial Services Committee members, along with their contact information</a>.</p>
<p>Financial Services leadership seems determined to include Audit the Fed as part of a regulatory reform package instead of passing it as a standalone bill.</p>
<p>While C4L will still do everything in its power to fight for a standalone vote on Audit the Fed on the House floor, it is critical we challenge Watt&#8217;s amendment in Committee.</p>
<p>It will become much easier for our representatives to claim they still support Audit the Fed on the House floor if the Watt version passes, when, in reality, Representative Watt&#8217;s amendment puts <em>restrictions</em> on Government Accountability Office audits of the Fed.</p>
<p>For example, Watt&#8217;s amendment prevents the GAO from auditing or reviewing decisions to authorize, modify, extend, or terminate loans or liquidity facilities.</p>
<p><strong>Congressman Paul will offer an amendment in Committee restoring an audit of the Fed’s entire $2 trillion balance sheet</strong>, but we have received word that some of the Democrat members may be waffling on their support for his amendment.</p>
<p>Help us turn up the pressure on these members!  Below is the list of Democrats on the committee who have cosponsored H.R. 1207.  <strong>Please call them and urge them to vote &#8220;Yes&#8221; on Ron Paul&#8217;s amendment.</strong>  Click on their names to get their web contact information.</p>

<p>We are continuing our work to achieve a standalone vote on H.R. 1207 on the House floor, but we must first stop the Watt amendment in the Financial Services Committee.</p>
<p>Make sure the Financial Services Committee members hear from you as soon as their offices open Thursday morning!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[In a letter to the House Financial Services Committee earlier this month, all eight wrote that they support the type of amendment now being introduced by Rep. Mel Watt (D-N.C.). Watt's approach purports to increase Fed transparency while it actually would tighten restrictions on any audits that could go forward.

The letter was sent around Wednesday by Watt's staff to members of the committee in advance of a vote scheduled for Thursday.

Watt's measure is in competition with an amendment cosponsored by Reps. Ron Paul (R-Texas) and Alan Grayson (D-Fla.), which would repeal the restrictions that Watt leaves in place.

But far from a broad cross-section, the "prominent economists" lobbying on behalf of the Watt bill are in fact deeply involved with the Federal Reserve. Seven of the eight are either currently on the Fed's payroll or have been in the past.

<p>As the debate over an audit of the Federal Reserve intensifies in the House, one camp is <a href="http://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/EconomistsLetter.pdf">trotting out eight academics </a>that it calls a &#8220;political cross section of prominent economists.&#8221;</p>
<p>A review of their backgrounds shows they are anything but.</p>
<p>In a letter to the House Financial Services Committee earlier this month, all eight wrote that they support the type of amendment<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/17/audit-the-fed-effort-unde_n_361389.html"> now being introduced </a>by Rep.

<p><!-- Subscribe user -->The letter was sent around Wednesday by Watt&#8217;s staff to members of the committee in advance of a vote scheduled for Thursday.</p>
<p>Watt&#8217;s measure is in competition with an amendment cosponsored by Reps. Ron Paul (R-Texas) and Alan Grayson (D-Fla.), which would repeal the restrictions that Watt leaves in place.</p>
<p>But far from a broad cross-section, the &#8220;prominent economists&#8221; lobbying on behalf of the Watt bill are in fact deeply involved with the Federal Reserve. Seven of the eight are either currently on the Fed&#8217;s payroll or have been in the past.</p>
<p>The Fed connections are not outlined in the letter sent around to committee members on Wednesday, but are publicly discernible through a review of their resumes, which are all posted online.</p>
<p>In September, <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/07/priceless-how-the-federal_n_278805.html">Huffington Post reported</a> that the Federal Reserve has accomplished a soft form of effective control over the field of monetary economics simply by employing &#8212; and being the means for career advance &#8212; for an overwhelming proportion of the discipline.</p>
<p>Now that the Fed is locked in a legislative battle on the Hill, it can call on those economists to give their &#8220;unvarnished&#8221; opinions to lawmakers.</p>
<p>The connections that the seven economists lobbying Congress have to the Fed are not incidental and four of them maintain current positions.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s run the traps:</p>
<p>Frederic Mishkin is a former board member, having served from 2006-2008. His career at the Fed stretches back to 1977 and he currently holds two positions: one as a member of the Center for Latin American Economics at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, where he&#8217;s been since 1996; and another as an academic consultant to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, where he&#8217;s been since 1997.</p>
<p>Anil K. Kashyap is currently a consultant with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, a position he&#8217;s held since 1991. He&#8217;s also on the economic advisory panel of the New York branch and was a consultant there in 2003. He was a visiting scholar at the division of monetary affairs at the Board of Governors of in1994, 2001 and 2005 and at the division of international finance in 1997.</p>
<p>Pete Klenow was a visiting scholar at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis from 1994-1999, 2003-2004, 2006 and again this year. From 2000-2003 he was also a senior economist at that branch. He&#8217;s currently a visiting scholar at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, a position he&#8217;s held since 2005. He was a visiting scholar at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City from 2004-2006.</p>
<p>Ricardo J. Caballero was a visiting scholar at Federal Reserve Bank of Boston from 2004-2005 and a visiting scholar at the Federal Reserve Board on multiple occasions.</p>
<p>Robert Hall was a research assistant at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System from 1982-1984 and an economist there from 1988-1991.</p>
<p>Thomas Sargent was an adviser to the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis from 1981 to 1987 and continues to write frequently for Fed-sponsored journals.</p>
<p>Micheal Woodford is currently on the Monetary Policy Advisory Committee of Federal Reserve Bank of New York, a position he&#8217;s held since 2004. He&#8217;s also listed as a consultant to the research department there dating back to 2005. In the past, he&#8217;s been a visiting scholar at the Board of Governors and various regional branches in 1987, 1993-1998 and 2000-present, often at multiple banks in the same year.</p>
<p>Economists with Fed connections strongly reject the notion that being paid by the bank influences their thinking. But Robert Auerbach, who spent years investigating the institution and is the author of <a href="http://www.utexas.edu/utpress/books/auedec.html">&#8220;Deception and Abuse at the Fed&#8221;</a>, says that those economists are simply in denial. &#8220;If you&#8217;re on the Fed payroll there&#8217;s a conflict of interest,&#8221; says Auerbach.</p>
<p>The tie between the economists backing Watt&#8217;s amendment and the Fed doesn&#8217;t by itself mean that it&#8217;s bad policy, but it does make clear which amendment is favored by the Federal Reserve. If there&#8217;s still any doubt, the e-mail from Watt staff notes that former Fed chairs Alan Greenspan and Paul Volcker also support a version of it.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, a broad coalition of liberal organizations is lining up behind the Paul-Grayson amendment, which also has the backing of most Republicans on the committee.</p>
<p>The AFL-CIO and other labor groups, as well as Americans for Financial Reform <a href="http://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/FedAuditLetter.pdf">signed on to a letter </a>posted Wednesday calling for committee members to back the Paul-Grayson approach.</p>
<p>&#8220;In creating the Federal Reserve nearly 100 years ago, the Congress envisioned a central bank free from political pressure. But the structure that may have once ensured independence now appears to put the Fed much closer to the financial industry than the American people, who deserve to know who the beneficiaries are,&#8221; reads the letter.</p>
<p>The Fed, in other words, is not presently independent of political pressure, but that pressure comes from Wall Street banks rather than from the American people through their elected representatives.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a distinction that the note from Watt&#8217;s staff on Wednesday subtly acknowledges, by focusing on legislative and executive branch pressure, rather than financial industry influence. The Paul-Grayson amendment, it warns, &#8220;would place the United States well outside of the mainstream of industrialized nations that shield their central banks from political interference by the Legislative and Executive branches of government, with potentially disastrous results to the U.S. economy.&#8221;</p>

<h3><span style="color: #0000ff"><span style="text-decoration: underline">Commentary from The Liberty Tree Lantern:</span></span></h3>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff">C</span><span style="color: #0000ff"><span style="color: #0000ff">apt. Karl</span> is scratching his head on one part of this article.  The President of the AFL-CIO is a member of the private and exclusive club of megalomaniacs, founded by The Federal Reserve “System” called </span><a href="http://www.trilateral.org/"><span style="color: #0000ff">The Trilateral Commission</span></a><span style="color: #0000ff">.  According to their own website their primary directive is to create a One World Government / New World Order.  Such a One World Government would be at the end of the puppet strings of The Federal Reserve cartel of twelve privately owned banks, who created The Trilateral Commission in the first place.  So why is the AFL-CIO bucking the Watt Amendment?  Any comments or info on this readers?   This doesn’t fit any form of logic.  Additionally, as many people know from the 1984 Grace Commission Report, the US Government doesn’t get any income taxes from the American People.  After transfer payments to various Socialist programs, like Social Security and Medicare for example, all income taxes go DIRECTLY to The Federal Reserve “System” for payment on the “Public Debt”.  So EVERY SINGLE PENNY that the US Government spends comes from and is borrowed from The Federal Reserve.  So every single Government program, except a couple of transfer programs, comes from the bottomless money pit at the Federal Reserve, who are the programmers of “The MATRIX” which is our economy based on little pieces of green paper printed out of thin air called FEDERAL RESERVE “NOTES” that our minds have programmed in public schools, the main stream media, The Federal Reserve, and The US Government, to believe are worth 100 cents apiece when in the ‘real’ world, outside of “The MATRIX” which only exists in our minds, they are really only worth 2 – 3 cents now after TARP, Bank and Corporate Bailouts, Stimulus and Socialist spending programs and various Government sanctioned “Ponzi” schemes.  Before this recent accelerated monetary policy programs the Dollar has been worth only 4 cents apiece for decades, even though in our minds we believed that they were worth 100 cents as we have been programmed to believe.  Of course much of the world today is starting to revalue the Dollar to its ‘real’ value of 2 – 3 cents, which will result in “hyperinflation” and, thereby, the total collapse of ‘The MATRIX’ (our economy) that has only existed in our minds for many decades, since fractionalized banking started chipping away from the gold standard and until it completely was eliminated by the US Government, anyway.   The AFL-CIO greatly believes in Socialism and Democracy which is defined as 50% plus one steals the individual rights, liberty, earnings and property, by popular vote and &#8220;mob rule&#8221;  from the remaining population so that by definition “Democracy” is the purest form of Socialism and/or Communism.  The Constitution, in contrast, &#8220;guarantees&#8221; a Republican form of government in<a href="http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html#A4Sec4"> Article 4 Section 4</a>, so as to protect everybody&#8217;s individual unalienable rights, earnings and property from the immoral that would rob and steal and from the mob rule of &#8220;The Masses&#8221;, as Stalin would advocate. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff">The AFL-CIO believes in “free stuff” Socialist type programs from the US Government, who gets every single nickel from The FED that they spend.  So the question becomes; Why is the AFL-CIO biting the hand that &#8220;ultimately&#8221; feeds them from a bottomless pit of printed out of thin air money and whose President is a major member of the Trilateral Commission?  Are they coming to the side of Jeffersonian Constitutionalists now?  And, what about this &#8220;broad coalition of liberal organizations that are lining up behind the Paul-Grayson amendment?  Don&#8217;t they understand that ALL GOVERNMENT MONEY comes from THE FEDERAL RESERVE and NOT from income taxes?  Haven&#8217;t they read the Grace Commission Report?  Without THE FED Socialism and Government &#8220;free stuff&#8221; couldn&#8217;t exist.  I don’t get it?  </span></p>

<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> <a href="http://americanlibertyalliance.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=997798ab9e4004a75a5dfc82e&amp;id=ac01e2687f&amp;e=1b4e231c21">Comment on this story online here</a></p>
<p>This is a story very near and dear to me. I have a special interest in this candidate and he means a lot to me.</p>
<p>February 27th was a cold day in Chicago. It was snowing, the wind was blowing and hot coffee wasn’t quite doing the trick. Our organizers for the Chicago Tea Party had spent just six days preparing for the first first event to follow Rick Santelli’s rant. We had no idea who or how many would attend.</p>
<p>I remember thinking, at the time, that if 100 showed up we could deem it a success. Until 2009, gatherings of this nature just didn’t really materialize in Chicago. Everyone I know in politics told me to prepare for the worst… believing that few would actually show up.</p>
<p>I parked the car and got my signs, clip boards and handouts, and headed to Daley Plaza, the location for the first Chicago Tea Party of 2009. When I arrived on scene, there was a family standing to the side of the property with some signs. It was obvious that at least someone had come to be a part of the event.</p>
<p>Their names were Richard and Laura Behney. They had traveled from Indiana up to Chicago for the tea party, and they were eager to be a part. After a brief introduction and chat, I asked them to take the clipboards and ask attendees to put there information on them so we could stay in contact. They humbly accepted and were happy to help out.</p>
<p>Hundreds and hundreds would soon start flooding into Daley Plaza and I lost sight of Laura and Richard for the duration of the event. But after the tea party, they brought me the clipboards and wanted to know what was next. They were extremely excited about what was unfolding, and they would eventually go back to Indiana to become a very influential and hard working part of the tea party movement in their home state.</p>
<p>This morning I received a message from Laura that reads as follows:</p>
<p><em>On that freezing cold February 27th day, you met my husband, Richard and I at Daley Plaza for Chicago’s first Tea Party. We were the first ones there and you asked us to take your clipboards and ask people to sign in. And so began our involvement in the historic Tea Party movement.</em></p>
<p><em>From there, Richard and I founded the Indianapolis Tea Party, where on Tax Day we had over 13,000 Hoosier Patriots on the lawn of our statehouse holding signs reflecting the sentiment that they had had ENOUGH!</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em><a href="http://www.richardbehney.com/Images/Banner_WhitePapers.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="border-width: 0px" src="http://www.richardbehney.com/Images/Banner_WhitePapers.jpg" alt="" width="529" height="180" /></a>And from there, hundreds of Hoosier Tea Partiers and 912 Groups urged Richard to take on Indiana’s political dynasty, Evan Bayh. A master of fence-riding so much so that he must have splinters!</em></p>
<p><em>The road from regular citizen (we own our own small plumbing business) to Tea Party goer to Tea Party organizer to candidate for United States Senate has been one we never expected to be on and frankly, slightly ticks us off that we have to be on it. BUT, someone has to do something, so it might as well be us.</em></p>
<p>Now I don’t know about you, but I think <a href="http://americanlibertyalliance.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=997798ab9e4004a75a5dfc82e&amp;id=002e4383c5&amp;e=1b4e231c21">Richard needs as much help as we can possibly give him</a>. Richard and his wife were the first two tea party activists I met since this movement began, and they deserve the full support of tea party activists across the country.</p>

<p>If you want CHANGE FROM the last TEN DECADES of Tyranny resulting in the utter Despotism and Economic Collapse we have today, YOU need to SUPPORT the Jeffersonian Constitutionalist Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate seat for Indiana. </p>
<p>I recommend we all blog about him, tweet about him, <a href="http://americanlibertyalliance.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=997798ab9e4004a75a5dfc82e&amp;id=b147923b67&amp;e=1b4e231c21">send him financial support</a>, <a href="http://americanlibertyalliance.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=997798ab9e4004a75a5dfc82e&amp;id=b79a6c190a&amp;e=1b4e231c21">volunteer for the campaign</a>, call friends and family in Indiana to ask for help… do everything possible to give this campaign a boost.</p>
<p>Not only do we need to rid the Senate of <a href="http://americanlibertyalliance.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=997798ab9e4004a75a5dfc82e&amp;id=6607bd71d3&amp;e=1b4e231c21">thugs like this</a>, we need to <a href="http://americanlibertyalliance.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=997798ab9e4004a75a5dfc82e&amp;id=fa1ee2815b&amp;e=1b4e231c21">replace them with patriots like this</a>.</p>
<p>For Liberty,<br />
