Health care reconciliation, Obama Reid Pelosi, Sham summit, 51 votes in Senate, Emergency Tele town Hall TONIGHT, Washington DC Thursday

Health care reconciliation, Obama Reid Pelosi

From Americans for Prosperity, February 23, 2010.

It was bad enough when President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid tried to pass their health care takeover through vote-buying, closed-door meetings, and strong-arm tactics.  But what they’re doing now is even worse…
 
Right now, Obama, Pelosi and Reid are working to ram their Washington takeover through Congress – without a real vote – using a parliamentary trick called “reconciliation.”
 
Democrats are hosting a sham “summit” this Thursday to “re-package” their failed plan before they attempt to force it through using “reconciliation.”  The result of their dishonest maneuver:  only 51 votes will be needed in the Senate instead of the 60 required by the long-established rule of law.
 
Working with grassroots allies, Americans for Prosperity has a plan to defeat this threat:
 
1. Please join us for an Emergency Tele-town Hall TONIGHT at 7:30PM Eastern to discuss this threat and our strategy to defeat it.  Dial (888)886-6603, Ext. # 14152.  Your direct involvement and input is critical to our success.  There’s no charge to you for joining this call.
 
2. If you can make it to Washington this Thursday, please stand with us as we protest right outside the gates of the DC mansion where Obama, Pelosi and Reid are hosting their sham “summit.”  We’ll meet at 9:30AM outside the Blair House (across from the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the White House ) to greet members of Congress as they arrive.  Then, we’ll hold our own Patients’ Summit at the J.W. Marriott on Pennsylvania Avenue, just a couple blocks away.  We’ll provide lunch and we’ll be joined by great speakers including Congressmen Tom Price and John Shadegg, Colin Hanna from Let Freedom Ring, and others.  (Let me know you’ll be there by CLICKING HERE.)
 
3. Just know that this Thursday beginning bright and early I’m asking you to call, email and if possible visit the district office of your Senators and House member to tell them they better not use the dishonest procedure called “reconciliation” to force through their big government health care takeover.  And, please forward this information to your friends.  CLICK HERE
 
If you can’t be there in Washington, you can still participate.  Just log onto www.AmericansForProsperity.org to view our LIVE web-cast starting at 11:30AM.
 
I know this is a lot to throw at you with short notice.  But you and I have worked too hard to give up now and let the Left force this agenda through Congress with a legislative trick.  The American people have already rejected a government takeover of our health care, time and time again.  Let’s make it clear that we’re not falling for the Left’s slick advertising campaigns – and that those who support them or stand aside while they subvert democracy will pay a huge price.
 
Thanks for all you do – now let’s win this fight.
 
Sincerely,

Tim

Kerchner v Obama and Congress, Update, February 23, 2010, Appeal, US 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, Philadelphia PA, Over Length Appellant’s Brief granted

Kerchner v Obama and Congress, Update, February 23, 2010

From Charles Kerchner, lead plaintiff in Kerchner v Obama and Congress.

For Immediate Release – 22 Feb 2010

There was activity today in the Kerchner et al v Obama & Congress et al Appeal before the U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia PA.

The Appellant’s Motion for Leave to File an Over-Length Appellant’s Brief has been granted by Judge Michael Chagares, Circuit Judge, with the U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia PA. The Appellant’s Brief is now past that technical hurdle and is thus fully accepted and before that court. This case at the Court of Appeals level will be judged by a three judge panel. You can see a copy of the Motion and the Order granting it at the below link.

Kerchner v Obama Appeal – Motion Granted for Appellants Request for Leave to File Over Length Brief:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/27308595/Kerchner-v-Obama-Appeal-Order-Granting-Leave-to-File-Over-Length-Brief-2010-02-22

You can read the entire Appellant’s Brief at this link:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/25461132/Kerchner-v-Obama-Appeal-Appellant-s-Opening-Brief-FILED-2010-01-19

We say in our original complaint that Obama is not a “natural born Citizen” of the USA and thus is not eligible to serve as President in the Oval Office. Obama is a Usurper and must be removed to preserve the integrity and fundamental law of our Constitution and our Republic.

We say that we Plaintiffs do have standing and the federal courts do have jurisdiction to address the constitutional legal question as to what does the term “natural born Citizen” in Article II mean to “constitutional standards”. All citizens have the inalienable right under the 9th Amendment to stand up to support and defend the U.S. Constitution against usurpation. And Oath Takers such as CDR Kerchner have a duty to do so. The courts have the constitutional power to take and decide this case. It is part of the “judicial review” powers of the federal courts.  It is the courts duty to interpret the Constitution and all terms therein for cases involving the U.S. Constitution brought before it.

“We the People” will be heard on this matter! As the People in Massachusetts have demonstrated, “We the People” are the Sovereigns in this country. The Constitution is the fundamental law of our nation, not Obama, Congress, or the two Political Parties, or the Main Stream Media. We will not be silenced. The chair Obama temporarily and illegally sits in in the Oval Office is not his throne. It is the People’s seat. And Obama despite all his obfuscations to-date must prove to “constitutional standards” that he is eligible to sit in that seat or he will be removed by the People.

This is not going to go away until Obama stops hiding ALL his hidden and sealed early life documents and provides original copies of them to a controlling legal authority and reveals his true legal identity from the time he was born until the time he ran for President.

Obama at birth was born British via his non-Citizen, foreign British Subject father. Obama is a dual-citizen. He holds and has held multiple citizenship during his life-time. He’s been a Citizenship chameleon all his life as the moment and time in his life suited him. While living in Indonesia during his childhood he was an Indonesian citizen. Obama is not a “natural born Citizen” with singular and sole allegiance to the USA at birth and Unity of Citizenship at Birth to the USA as is required per the Constitution per the intent of our founders and framers of the Constitution and the meaning of the term “natural born Citizen” to Constitutional standards. The requirement to be “natural born Citizen” at birth is a national security issue since the President is the commander of our military. That is why the clause was put into the Constitution in the first place. Obama is not a “natural born Citizen” of the USA and is an illegal President and Commander-in-Chief and is a national security risk to this nation.

The next expected activity in the Kerchner v Obama & Congress lawsuit is for the Defendants’ to file their Opposition Brief. The Defendants previously had filed for an extension for more time to file their Opposition Brief, which the court had previously granted. As has been typical, the Obama side continues to stall and delay and obfuscate. They absolutely do not wish this case tried in court on the merits as Obama is NOT a “natural born Citizen” of the USA and that would be easily proven in a Court of law with discovery and presentation of the historical and legal evidence as to what the term “natural born Citizen” meant to the founders and in four U.S. Supreme Court cases.

In the end the truth will be told. It’s only a matter of time and the truth will come out. Obama’s hidden and sealed documents of his early live will be revealed, and he will either resign or be constitutionally removed from the office he illegally sits in. Obama has created a Constitutional Crisis of historic proportions. But We the People will resolve it. History will record Putative President Obama as a disgraceful moment in the history of our great Republic and put a gigantic asterisk after his name. But we will survive it. Our Constitution and We the People will win the day and protect our freedom and liberty for our children, grandchildren, and are great-grandchildren to come. Obama the illegal President will be removed.

Glenn Beck CPAC speech, Glenn Beck hypocrisy, Citizen Wells waiting on call, Beck insults Americans, You can disagree with me, Glenn Beck quotes Constitution attacks concerned Americans, Beck fair?

Glenn Beck CPAC speech, Glenn Beck hypocrisy

“There is an epidemic of shooting messengers in this country.”…Citizen Wells

Glen Beck spoke to the CPAC gathering on Saturday, February 20, 2010.
I was moved by the speech.
I do not dislike Glenn Beck. I despise his hypocrisy.
 

The words that Glenn Beck spoke were great. What prevents those words from going down in history as a great speech is that Glenn Beck spoke those words as platitudes and not his creed.
 
 
Glenn Beck, many months ago, I told those around me that I would love to meet you. Not because I am star struck, I most assuredly am not. But because I respected what you were saying and accomplishing. Now I still want to meet you, but for a different reason. To give you a scolding, to grab you by the collar, shake some sense into you and to tell you to shut up and listen.
Glenn Beck words, Glenn Beck actions.

Glenn Beck, call me, Citizen Wells, I am still waiting on a call

Mount Vernon Statement, CONSTITUTIONAL CONSERVATISM, A STATEMENT FOR THE 21ST CENTURY, We recommit ourselves to the ideas of the American Founding, Constitution

Mount Vernon Statement, February 17, 2010.

THE MOUNT VERNON STATEMENT
CONSTITUTIONAL CONSERVATISM:
 A STATEMENT FOR THE 21ST CENTURY
        We recommit ourselves to the ideas of the American Founding. Through the Constitution, the Founders created an enduring framework of limited government based on the rule of law. They sought to secure national independence, provide for economic opportunity, establish true religious liberty and maintain a flourishing society of republican self-government.
        These principles define us as a country and inspire us as a people. They are responsible for a prosperous, just nation unlike any other in the world. They are our highest achievements, serving not only as powerful beacons to all who strive for freedom and seek self-government, but as warnings to tyrants and despots everywhere.
       Each one of these founding ideas is presently under sustained attack. In recent decades, America’s principles have been undermined and redefined in our culture, our universities and our politics. The self-evident truths of 1776 have been supplanted by the notion that no such truths exist. The federal government today ignores the limits of the Constitution, which is increasingly dismissed as obsolete and irrelevant.
       Some insist that America must change, cast off the old and put on the new. But where would this lead — forward or backward, up or down? Isn’t this idea of change an empty promise or even a dangerous deception?
       The change we urgently need, a change consistent with the American ideal, is not movement away from but toward our founding principles. At this important time, we need a restatement of Constitutional conservatism grounded in the priceless principle of ordered liberty articulated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
       The conservatism of the Declaration asserts self-evident truths based on the laws of nature and nature’s God. It defends life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It traces authority to the consent of the governed. It recognizes man’s self-interest but also his capacity for virtue.
       The conservatism of the Constitution limits government’s powers but ensures that government performs its proper job effectively. It refines popular will through the filter of representation. It provides checks and balances through the several branches of government and a federal republic.
       A Constitutional conservatism unites all conservatives through the natural fusion provided by American principles. It reminds economic conservatives that morality is essential to limited government, social conservatives that unlimited government is a threat to moral self-government, and national security conservatives that energetic but responsible government is the key to America’s safety and leadership role in the world.
        A Constitutional conservatism based on first principles provides the framework for a consistent and meaningful policy agenda.

It applies the principle of limited government based on the rule of law to every proposal.
It honors the central place of individual liberty in American politics and life.
It encourages free enterprise, the individual entrepreneur, and economic reforms grounded in market solutions.
It supports America’s national interest in advancing freedom and opposing tyranny in the world and prudently considers what we can and should do to that end.
It informs conservatism’s firm defense of family, neighborhood, community, and faith.
       If we are to succeed in the critical political and policy battles ahead, we must be certain of our purpose. We must begin by retaking and resolutely defending the high ground of America’s founding principles.

Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly, US Constitution Hall of Shame, Fox News protects Obama, Constitutional hypocrisy, Selective journalism

 

US Constitution

Hall of Shame

 

February 19, 2010

The newest inductees into the Citizen Wells US Constitution Hall of Shame are…..

Drumroll.

.

.

Yes, that’s Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly of Fox News and radio shows.

First let’s address what did not get them in the US Constitution Hall of Shame. Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly and Fox did not adequately cover the Obama eligibility issues and did not dig deep enough into Obama’s corruption ties. Although that is cowardly and journalistically dishonest, that did not qualify them for the Hall of Shame.

There are two distinct and important issues that clearly qualify Beck and O’Reilly for the Hall of Shame.

The first has been the most controversial. That is, Obama’s eligibility issues. The details of that can be found on this blog and elsewhere and are legitimate, constitutionally based concerns. What Beck and O’Reilly have done is clearly defined and beyond question. Both Beck and O’Reilly have insulted and criticized concerned Americans for asking questions about Obama’s eligibility. Those asking questions come from many backgrounds, including, but not limited to, active miltary, retired military, high ranking military officers, attorneys, well educated people and even congressmen. The hypocrisy and self aggrandizement coming from these two knows no bounds. They speak the virtues of the US Constitution while criticizing those exercizing their First Amendment Rights. Beck has insulted concerned Americans on both his radio show and Fox TV show. O’Reilly had the audacity to question Lou Dobbs about his decision to question Obama’s birth certificate.

The second major issue, the one that Fox has crossed over the line on, was having Rod Blagojevich interviewed by Bill O’Reilly and others and not addressing the bulk of the indictment charges and questioning the involvement of Obama when he was in the IL Senate. The alleged selling of Obama’s IL Senate seat was focused on as if that represented the years of corruption that tied both Blagojevich and Obama to convicted corruption figure Tony Rezko. The Obama Senate seat controversy is a well crafted diversion and Fox, along with the rest of the MSM has embraced it to protect Obama.

A dedicated phone was set aside several weeks ago and the phone number was emailed and left on phone messages for several Glenn Beck accounts. Glenn, you may provide this number to your pal Bill O’Reilly. Glenn, as you state on your Fox program, the phone has been silent and silence is an answer.

Wells

 

Bill O’Reilly, Glenn Beck, Fox News, Protecting Obama, Why?, At least cover the whole Blagojevich story

Bill O’Reilly, Glenn Beck, Fox News, Protecting Obama, Why?

This will serve as the open thread today, February 19, 2010.

Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck have not only not  covered Obama’s eligibility, they have insulted concerned Americans who exercise their First Amendment Rights. Beck and O’Reilly are speaking out of one side of their mouth, while claiming to uphold the US Constitution out of the other side of their mouth. That is just wrong!

To add insult to injury, they are not covering the entire Rod Blagojevich indictment, not to mention Obama’s involvement. As you go about your daily activities ponder whether or not we should allow them to proceed in this manner.

I am still waiting on a phone call from Glenn Beck. Beck, you are pals with O’Reilly, give him the phone number.

February 18 2010, Citizen Wells open thread

The Citizen Wells blog is open to sincere discussions on a wide variety of topics. This open thread for today, February 18, 2010 is for “off topic” discussions. The “on topic” discussion thus far today is the Philip J Berg update so anything related to Obama eligibilty will be appropriate on that post. Sporadic personal comments are allowed as long as they do not attack commenters here.

To further elaborate, comments about Obama, Congress on a post like Berg’s would normally be appropriate. This is not a hard and fast rule and is intended to guide reasonable people.

Regarding 9/11 and various theories. I have an opinion, which I will refrain from expressing. I am not saying that this is not important. I have various priorities which I must adhere to. I would prefer that these comments be placed on an open thread.

Thanks and God bless.

Berg to Attend CPAC 2010 in Washington, DC 2/18 to 2/20
* * *
Berg States that Announcement of
“Birth Certificate March on Washington”
to Demand Obama Resign
forced Obama to address the issue at
National Prayer Breakfast
* * *
Date for March to be Announced Soon
and
Urgent Need for Funds
(Lafayette Hill, PA – 02/18/10) – Philip J. Berg, Esquire, the first Attorney who filed suit against Barack H. Obama challenging Senator Obama’s lack of “qualifications” to serve as President of the United States stated that “WE THE PEOPLE” by and through Philip J. Berg and Obamacrimes.com forced Obama to address the issue at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday, February 4, 2009 !   Obama, in part of his speech referred for the first time since the question of his being “Constitutionally eligible” stated,
“But surely you can question my policies without questioning my faith, or, [pause] for that matter,my citizenship.“ [Laughter and applause.] [emphasis added]
Berg said, “I knew that if we continued our efforts, those of obamacrimes.com, to expose Obama not being ‘Constitutionally eligible’ to be President, as this is the greatest ‘HOAX’ in the history of our country, that being over 230 years and the fact that Obama’s actions are a fraud !”
The actual words stated by Obama:

“Civility also requires relearning how to disagree without being disagreeable; understanding, as President [Kennedy] said, that “civility is not a sign of weakness.” Now, I am the first to confess I am not always right.  Michelle will testify to that“. [Laughter.]
“But surely you can question my policies without questioning my faith, or, [pause] for that matter, my citizenship.” [Laughter and applause.] [emphasis added]
Berg said, “WOW, it is about time !  This is great. Our announcement of the ‘Birth Certificate March on Washington’ demanding Obama resign as President as he is ‘Constitutionally ineligible’ to be President was the Press Release that caused Obama to react.”

Berg stated, “Because of the response to date, shortly, we will announce the date for the “Birth Certificate March on Washington.”
Further, “We need Funds ASAP to be able to publicize the March and start to arrange specifics for the ‘Birth Certificate March on Washington.’  Go to obamacrimes.com to make your contribution.”
Berg is requesting all citizens of the United States to email, fax or mail a “copy” of their Birth Certificate that will be presented to Obama demanding that Obama resign because he has failed to produce his long form [vault] Birth Certificate and other citizenship documents [Obama, an Indonesian Citizen ?] to show he is “Constitutionally eligible” to be President.  Please redact any personal information that you wish.
Berg related an email he received.  A woman from Texas told me she registered her thirteen [13] year old nephew for school.  When registration was finished, her nephew asked the Principal, “Can I ask you a question?”  The Principal said, “Yes.”  Her nephew said, “How come I had to show my Birth Certificate to register for school, but Obama did not have to show his to be President ?”
Berg said, “That email motivated me to continue to expose Obama for the fraud he is !”
Berg continued, “Since the Courts are taking their time to get to the point of allowing ‘Discovery,’ it is time to motivate the citizens of the United States for a ‘Peaceful Revolution’ to expose the ‘HOAX’ of Obama, the biggest ‘HOAX’ in the history of our country, in over 230 years !”
Berg wants people to email, fax or mail a copy of their Birth Certificate to:
Email = philjberg@obamacrimes.com
Fax     = (610) 834-7659
Mail    = Obamacrimes
555 Andorra Glen Court, Suite 12
Lafayette Hill, PA 19444-2531
Berg said, “Then, we will be preparing them to deliver to Obama demanding that he resign from the Office of President as he has not proven that he is “Constitutionally eligible” to be President and that Obama has not produced legal documents to show he legally changed his name from his ‘adopted’ name of ‘Barry Soetoro’ from Indonesia.
I am proceeding for the 305 + million people in ‘our’ U.S.A., for ‘our’ forefathers and for the 3.2 million men and women that have died and/or been maimed defending our Constitution with our ‘Peaceful Revolution’ to prove that Obama is not Constitutionally qualified/eligible to be President.”
Berg continued, “I still have cases pending in the Federal Courts.  Go to obamacrimes.com to see the status of each case.”
Berg concluded, “I will be attending the CPAC 2010 Convention in Washington, DC from Thursday, 2/18 to Saturday, 2/20 at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel.  The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) will be helpful for me to spread the message that Obama is a fraud, a phony and Obama has put forth the biggest ‘HOAX’ in the history of our great nation,”
