January 18, 2007 journal, a day of shame for United States and compromising churches. Dr. Tony Beam is as crazy as the president suggested we let the war work to devastate the people of Iraq to level them until there is no resistance. They are instead now leveling US to death. We are following the idolatry Star of Remphan & God "will remove" (us) from beyond Babylon. The great snow job this morning by Tony Snow mouthpiece of dictator. We are being swept away by the silver tongued Fox News trained Tony Snow saying the opposition to the war does not matter, that the troops sacrifice will continue regardless. William Bennett saying all the opposition to war is coming from presidential candidates. William Bennett is one of the signers of the new millennium plans developed by the slick tricky Dick Cheney who worked privately and silently during the Clinton years where as they needed a dummy to stand in as a puppet to sign executive orders and con artists bills. All of this there is no wonder the house is coming down on this nation, curtains dropping. 300 miles of I-10 closed in West Texas due to ice & now a reported 65 people have died. Malibu has 4 inches snow and parts of California have temperatures drop to 23 degrees. Oranges were taken off shelf in one major national store I believe to await higher prices. Everyday the war in Iraq and Afghanistan worsens and we lose more troops needlessly. There is no doubt the friendly appointed court will or has approved eavesdropping on us. They open your mail and monitor your bank accounts and do seize your property at will. Chuck Baldwin continued "After signing a postal reform bill called HR6407, the "Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act", B*us*h issued a "signing statement" (presidential decree) that declared his right to open the private mail of American citizens without any judge's warrant. According to the New-York Daily News, That claim is contrary to ex-isting law and contradicted the bill he has just signed, say experts to have reviewed it". The News continues by saying, "Expert said the new powers could be easily abused and used to vacuum up large amounts of mail. "The Bu*sh signing statement claims authority to open domestic mail without a warrant, and that would be new and quite alarming, said Kate Martin, director of the Center for National Security Studies in Washington". Further more, a career senior U.S. official who reviewed the legal underpinning of B*ush's claim said, "You have to be concerned. It takes Executive Branch authority beyond anything we have ever known". President Bu*sh's decision to grant himself the power to open private mail without a warrant is similar to what he has done in the recent past. Remember that B*us*h recently said he had the authority to perform warrantless eavesdropping on the American people. A total surveillance society is something that American people here to fore understood to be completely contrary to the principles of liberty. Such a society was reserved for Marxists or Nazi regimes and was repugnant to all true Americans. No more, B*us*h has taken the concept of a surveillance society into the mainstream of American public life and culture. Sadder still is the fact that there is only a handful of people that seem worried about it, and none of these are conservative Christian leaders. Since Bu*sh became president, the American people have lost their Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Amendment protections. Their phone calls, e-mail's, and even private discussions can be and are monitored by federal agents without court order. Beyond that, virtually all their major banking transactions are constantly monitored, as well as their travel and shopping activities. The Republican Party has demonstrated that it has no inclination to oppose B*us*h's New World Order, that is for sure. For one thing, the GOP always was, and still is, the party of big business. Who do you think is getting the high dollar contracts to do.
