The Constitution is Dead
Some of you may be aware of how the nazis and their propaganda arm
succeeded in taking over Germany by using "The Big Lie". The brains
of many Americans automatically shut down anytime someone refers
either to leaders or government programs as being Nazi or fascist in
nature. Should you feel that switch engaging try to bear with me unless
you're afraid of the truth in which case you should read no further and go
back to your waking sleep that you call reality.
The Big Lie
There is one big lie that has been the Modus Operandi for our government
since 2001 and it is this; That we still continue to operate our government
as a Constitutional Republic. We still have all the windowdressings: a
President and cabinet, a Congress, a regular alphabet soup of agencies
that cover everything under the sun and then some. They have press
conferences and sessions of Congress where they seemingly do the
business of America.
The media has us convinced that things go on just the same as they have
for over 200 years. As long as we don't dig too
deeply we all go on reassured that Big Brother is still working and somehow things will get better.
Oh, the Union still stands but the Constitutional Republic as we once
knew it is dead. We no longer enjoy any Constitutional protections
whatsoever. Simply because the MSM hasn't made it into a story doesn't
mean that it hasn't happened but IT DID.
Every fundamental right we have has been taken away somewhere at
some time - Trial by jury, habeus corpus, the right to assemble
peaceably, indefinite detention, the right to vote etc. etc. Those not
blatantly taken away have been sorely compromised or vilified by
the MSM as being acts of treason, un-american - you know the drill here.
Although FEMA was started by Jimmy Carter, it was turned into a tool
of the National Security State under Reagan/Bush. Here's a primer video
if you are not familiar with REX 84, a plan to suspend the Constitution
in the event of a national emergency.

Fast forward to 9/11/2001. On September 14, 2001 "President" G.W.Bush
declared a national state of emergency pursuant to Section 202 (d) of the
National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C.).
Here's an excellent article from (believe it or not) CBS news from
March 1, 2002 when the story broke:

This state of emergency has been renewed 7 times since Sept. 14, 2001.

Here's a directive from G.W.Bush posted in the blogspot:
Notice: Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Certain
Terrorist Attacks
Consistent with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act
(50 U.S.C.), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency I
declared on September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect
to the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, New York, New
York, the Pentagon, and aboard United Airlines flight 93, and the
continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.
Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared
on September 14, 2001, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal
with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2008. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national
emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to
the Congress.
GEORGE W. BUSH
THE WHITE HOUSE,
August 28, 2008.

THERE YOU HAVE IT, STRAIGHT FROM THE SOURCE. The emergency
powers that have been used for the last 8 years override any and all
Constitutional protections.
That certainly explains why the government has seemingly acted with
impunity, paying no heed whatsoever to public opinion. They don't have
to, we're still in a state of emergency.
Not only have they done this but WELL OVER HALF OF ALL THE PRESIDENTIAL
OR EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND DIRECTIVES ARE NOT REGISTERED ANYWHERE THAT THE PUBLIC OR EVEN MEMBERS OF CONGRESS CAN SEE THEM. You don't have to believe
me, take it from Representative Peter Defazio, D 4th
district Oregon -

From the Georgewashingtonblogspot article:
As Steven Aftergood, of the Federation of American Scientists Project on Government Secrecy, notes:
"Of the 54 National Security Presidential Directives issued by the
[George W.] Bush Administration to date, the titles of only about half
have been publicly identified. There is descriptive material or actual
text in the public domain for only about a third. In other words, there
are dozens of undisclosed Presidential directives that define U.S. national
security policy and task government agencies, but whose substance is
unknown either to the public or, as a rule, to Congress."
Try searching government websites for yourself - they have been purged
of anything relating to Continuity of Government. It is what has been
hidden that is important - that C.O.G. is still in effect.
Rep.Defazio and 2 other congressman have been stonewalled since 2007
even though they are members of the Homeland Security Committee. The
Obama administration despite their claims of "transparency" are not willing to change the status quo or answer any questions about it.

Text from the article:
While Obama administration officials would not discuss details of their
continuity plan, they said the current policy was “settled,” and they
drew no distance between their own policies and those left behind by
the Bush administration.
The Republic is dead and has been for 8 years.
Where do we go from here?
