When the Christian Right Disrobes … HUCKABEE
Appears!

The Huckster’s sudden rise in the polls is no
accident. It can be traced back to his CFR connection via the Council for
National Policy.

As the Christian Right disrobes,
something very un-Christian is beginning to appear beneath the dropping
garments.

Some leaders of that movement have apparently shed every last vestige of
conservative principle in making their choice of which GOP presidential
candidate to shower with their much-desired endorsements.

According to an article in the Washington Times of November 8, 2007, Ralph Z.
Hallow reports that Robert Wildmon endorses Huckabee, Paul Weyrich endorses
Romney – and Pat Robertson endorsed, of all candidates, the socially liberal
and pro-abortion Rudolph Giuliani.

Their only concern appears to be “Who can beat Hillary?” In the
process, we are told, long-standing religious-right principles like a stance
against abortion are thrown into the hamper like dirty underwear.

It’s not only the stance against abortion that is being abandoned. The
religious right once prided itself of being a staunch defender of US
sovereignty. How can that be squared with endorsing McCain, who would allow
illegal aliens a fast-track way to US citizenship, or Huckabee, who has
recently teamed up with Council on Foreign Relations president Richard N. Haass
as foreign policy advisor?

At least pursuant to a celebrated speech Haass delivered in 2003 at the
Brooking Institution, he does not think that national sovereignty should be
allowed to stand in the way of globalist “integration.”

Are you a Christian who opposes plans to “integrate” the United
States with Mexico and Canada? Well, Mike Huckabee should not be your choice.
His close cooperation with the president of the Council n Foreign Relations
should speak for itself.

Last time I checked, religious right members were opposed to the curtailing of
US sovereignty. Sure, Huck toes the line and says he wants to protect US
sovereignty – but his foreign policy advisor certainly doesn’t instill much
confidence in the purity of his intentions. The CFR is an organization whose
members have produced a plethora of books, articles, and other writings
supporting a North American Union (NAU), for example. (Of course,
pseudo-conservative radio talk show host Michael Bed-wet has told us that there
are no plans for such a NAU and that all who say otherwise are just crazy – so
it must be true.)

Here is a list of religious right leaders who have endorsed Huckabee, with
dates: Links to some of the endorsement articles can be viewed here.

* Baptist leader Rick Scarborough (Endorsement Article) Rick is founder and
President of American Vision. A pro-family organization endorsed by men like
Dr. D. James Kennedy.
* Don Wildmon founder/ former President of AFA, the American Family
Association(Endorsement Article) (11-08)
* Randy Alcorn, Christian Author (Endorsement Article) strong pro-life advocate
(11-06)
* Justin Taylor of Between Two Worlds – (Joint Endorsement Article) (10-25)
* Joe Carter of Evangelical Outpost (10-25)
* Matthew Anderson, Mere Orthodoxy (10-25)
* Chuck Norris (Endorsement Article) (11-19)
* Janet Folger of Faith to Action (Endorsement Article) (10-01)
* Jack Graham of Preston Wood Baptist Church, Plano, TX (Video 11/4/07)
* James Robison, Life Outreach International (Endorsement Article) (05-04)
* Keith Butler, Pastor – Word of Faith International Christian Center in
Michigan (11-13)
* Matthew Staver, Founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel (11-27)
* Dr. James T. Draper Jr. ” Colleyville, Tex. (11-27)
* Dr. Jerry Vines ” Woodstock, Ga. (11-09)
* Dr. Daniel L. Akin ” Wake Forest, N.C. (11-28)
* Dr. Jay Strack ” Orlando, Fla. (11-10)
* Dr. Billy McCormack ” Shreveport, La. (11-10)
* Stephen Strang, publisher of Charisma, Christian Life, New Woman, New Man
Magazines (Magazine Endorsement) (12-01)
* Jerry Cox, President of Arkansas Family Council ” Little Rock, Ark.
(11-11)
* Jim Pfaff, President and CEO of Colorado Family Action ” Castle Rock,
Col. (11-12)
* Kelly Shackelford, President of Free Market Foundation ” Plano, Tex.
(12-23)
* Phil Burress, President of Citizens for Community Values ” Ohio (11-12)

Looks like an impressive list, doesn’t it? The only problem is, they’re all
from the same organization (the “Arlingotn Group”), and even though
the leader, Jim Dobson, hasn’t publicly jumped on the bandwagon yet, this is
not so much the opinion of many individual diverse religious leaders as it is
one single neocon-driven group in concerted action – as evidenced by the close
temporal proximity of the endorsements.

As a Christian, how do you make up your mind about a presidential candidate? By
blindly following the leaders of religious organizations you may belong to or
which you may respect – or by making your own judgments and decisions?

Has your study of Bible doctrine enabled you to make such decisions based on your
understanding of what God wants for you and this world – or are you still a
spiritual infant who has to suckle (potentially poisonous) milk from his
theological Fuehrer’s breast?
Another question to ask yourself is this: Has Mike Huckabee’s tune changed
significantly from statements he made in his earlier campaign speeches and
televised debates? Up until October/November, he had no visible support from
anyone.

Where does this sudden success in the polls come from? If it isn’t substantive
(i.e., because of what he says in the debates) then other forces must be at
work

The whole scenario is terribly reminiscent of the sudden rise from complete
obscurity of other no-name politicians like Jimmy Carter in 1976 and one
William Jefferson Clinton in 1992.

In today’s politics, you don’t just come out of nowhere with no budget worth
mentioning and start making such tremendous headway in polls, getting virtually
all publicists who call themselves “conservative” to pull on the same
string for you.

That just doesn’t happen spontaneously.

It used to be that fund raising success was the determinative factor of
“winnability” – at least when you listened to the press pundits. Now,
since Ron Paul has trumped everyone in the Republican lineup during the fourth
quarter, fund raising success suddenly doesn’t matter anymore. It’s not helping
Ron Paul – and a decided lack of it is not going to keep Huckabee from winning
Iowa.

Hmm …

It is very interesting to note that many of the Huck-endorsing leaders listed
above are members of an influential Christian outfit called the Arlington
Group, which itself is an offshoot of the highly secretive, Bilderberg-like
“Council for National Policy” (CNP). The CNP, in turn, bills itself
as the American patriot’s answer to the Council on Foreign Relations.

Inconveniently, however, a whole slew of the founding members of the CNP were
and still are CFR members themselves. How does that make sense? Are they just
moles inside the CFR? If so, one would expect them to immediately advise the Huckster
to kick Richard’s “Haass” off his advisory committee.

Don’t hold your breath.

Also interesting is that both Dick Cheney and Mitt Romney were invited to the
CNP last secret meeting in Salt Lake City. Guess when? Late September of 2007,
just weeks before the endorsements started rolling in to Huck’s campaign. And,
oh yes, you can only get invited with a 100 percent consensus from all the
members – so you can see with whom that organization plays ball.

Haass may eventually be replaced with someone else, but the vile connection is
now established and solidified – and should evoke powerful concerns in every
God, country, and family-loving Christian’s heart.

If you are a Christian, pray that God gives you the foresight and wisdom to
make the right choice for America in this primary season – and yes, it’s okay
to do some research on your own. Just Google “Council for National
Policy” and start reading. (A point of advice, though, is that you should
sit down when you do your research. You will not like what you find.)

I hope the elitists read and
comprehend.  Ron Paul represents far more than the Constitution and Bill
of Rights, of returning America to it’s original foundations.  Alan Stang
did an absolutely masterful job when he wrote Are the Globalists out to
get Ron Paul?   Mr Stang makes it equally clear below, Ron Paul
represents the awakening of America.  Believe it or not, there are Ron
Paul meet-up groups WORLD-WIDE.  We are on the move, folks.  I know
many say that there isn’t a chance Ron Paul can take the presidency. 
Never say Never!  Never underestimate the power or the will of God!

 

God Bless Ron Paul, God Bless Alan Stang, now, let’s take our country
back!!  On to Washington, DC!  Let’s send all the crooks, criminals
and degenerates, walking the hallowed halls of our nation’s Capitol,
packing!

RON PAUL AWAKENS THE SPIRIT OF AMERICA



by Alan Stang
December 31, 2007
NewsWithViews.com

 

I am still recovering from the response to my piece about the
possible assassination of Dr. Ron Paul. In more than forty years of
struggle in the battle for America, I have never seen anything like it. Days
after publication, I am still trying to answer the email. It is coming from
everywhere, in a swelling wave, and I literally mean everywhere, around the
world. There are messages from across this country, of course, but also from
Canada, from Sweden, from the Philippines, Australia and elsewhere.

 

It is as if, blundering in the darkness, I accidentally pushed an unseen
button, or uncorked an old bottle, or opened a long unused door, and that
unknowing, unintended action has unleashed a dormant, primeval force, waiting
to be summoned. From uncountable throats a roaring erupts. Something awesome
awakens and arises, the dimensions of which we see dimly because they are so
vast, something “in the air.”

 

Excerpts from some of these messages could be helpful. First, they prove that
what I told you is true. Some of them are scary. Second, they inspire; they
prove that, as Dr. No says, freedom is contagious. People everywhere want it.
Third, reading them will convince you that you are not alone and you are not
crazy.

 

College campuses, for instance, are aflame. We knew something was afoot when
Dr. Paul discusses economics, the “dismal science,” the most boring subject,
and students erupt in ecstasy. Consider that most of these comments do not come
from some “fringe.” They come from the heart of the heartland, from what
network degenerates contemptuously dismiss as “flyover country.” Here they are:

 

1, I am 66,
honorably discharged, and I concur with your assessment of what would happen if
we move to assassination politics at this time. Dr. Paul has awakened the
American Spirit of Liberty in all age groups across the nation. Many people
would start voting with the little red dot. That is the one reason for the move
in congress to remove the right for returning soldiers and marines to own
weapons using battle fatigue as their lever. Thanks to the Internet these men
and women now know that it is their own government who poisoned them through
the use of depleted DU munitions in Iraq and in Afghanistan and in Bosnia.
Thanks to the Internet they now know our president lied about the reasons for
Gulf War 2 like his father lied in Gulf War 1.

 

I believe all the politicians and their handlers have reason to fear the little
red dot in the hands of a man or woman who has been terminally infected with
DU. This is one reason so many senior congress critters have and are resigning.
They fear being held accountable by angry, hungry, unemployed black and white
Americans who want our borders closed, and the illegals removed.

 

2, Ron Paul
wins even if he loses. Yes Ron Paul wins. Remember the movie Braveheart. It was
the Spirit of liberty that moved Wallace to act. It is the same Spirit that has
entered into the passion of the Ron Paul movement. It is the same Spirit that
will guide America through the coming economic crash and 3rd war on our soil.

 

3, This is
an entirely different ball game! This time, we have THEIR number! Also, there
are many thousands of very disenchanted young, badly injured servicemen, who
realize who set them up for patsies in an extravagant blood-for-money racket! I
sure would not like to be in any Bloody-Bilderberger’s shoes if anything
happens to candidate Ron Paul! They got away with far too much with their fixed
courts.

 

They trained thousands of now-enlightened soldiers how to “take-out”
an enemy and now are finding the “real enemies” were playing
bloody-chess, with their lives! The Bilderberger outfit should get wise and
cash in their bloody hand, take their crooked earnings before they meet real
fighters!

 

4, This
next comment comes to us from Jim Schwiesow, a
fellow commentator at newswithviews.com. Jim served in law enforcement for
forty six years, including three years in the U.S. Army military police,
fifteen years as an Iowa city cop and twenty-eight years as the elected sheriff
of Sioux County, Iowa.

 

Dear Alan, I just read your latest article in re: The threat to Dr. Paul. I am
county co-chair for Dr. Paul’s campaign and a member of his Iowa Steering
Committee. Last week he arrived in our county for an engagement at one of our
colleges. I was scheduled to make remarks prior to his program, and when I
arrived I was totally shocked at the lack of security. He could have been
assassinated with ease and the assassins would have gotten away. He had only
one security man with his entourage, ONE! I spoke to this man and asked about
the security. He explained that he was it and that they did not have a security
staff other than him. He stated that they depended upon the local police in the
various communities to help provide security. At this event there was one local
police officer present. This is serious and I cannot understand the lack of
concern for Dr. Paul’s safety. I am going to stress vigorously the need for
adequate protection. His candidacy is rapidly gaining ground and the
establishment elite are getting panicky; they will soon be at a point where
they will do anything to stop him from gaining the presidency and that includes
killing him. Thanks for the article pointing up the seriousness of this
situation. If something happens to Dr. Paul there are going to be a lot of
sorry S.O.B.s in this country.

 

5, We, the
“Legion,” have worried about this possibility from the beginning of Dr No’s
candidacy. For this reason we are ready to ramp up production of a high tech
Guillotine if the need should ever arise. Sniff the air, there is a new scent
wafting about from the Proletariat. Politicians can’t seem to smell it. Neither
can Bankers.

 

6,
Congratulations on your excellent letter, which I received through News with
Views, here in Australia, regarding Dr. Ron Paul, and the risk of his possible
assassination. Very good, and one which we have been concerned about now for
some time. We pray for his safety, and his success. America needs him, as there
does not appear to be anyone else. As far as the enemy is concerned, it is our
firm belief that they need to be removed from the top. I mean the very top. By
that we mean the very, very, top, top. Do we make ourselves clear?

 

Does anyone know what these good folks Down Under, and therefore outside the
jurisdiction of the U.S. Secret Service, are talking about? The “very top?” I’m
confused. There could be some error in translation. Remember, they are
Australians. G’dye, Myte!

 

7, It needed
to be said and you used the perfect choice of words to say it. You are so
right. If they do a hit on Ron Paul we will take apart the elite’s power
structure like a massive school of Piranha attacks a bird that falls into the
water. It will be fast, furious, and there will be no place to hide.

 

Your indirect threats to the power structure were pure genius. Somebody needs
to stand up to these a–holes and tell them that although they may have the
financial backing, and security, nothing will stop the idea and message. It
will look like a scene from a Frankenstein movie

 

8, I am a
Vietnam vet, out of shape, overweight, and at 62 physically incapable of
running five feet without a great deal of pain, own no firearms, BUT have the
ability to cause more serious damage to the new world order than what you
suggest in your article. These people have no clue what is in store for them
should anything happen to Ron Paul. I don’t advocate any degree of violence
because it would only fuel the rapidity of their martial law scenario. I will
use my knowledge and abilities to do whatever it takes. How ever long it takes.
With whatever effort it takes. Spend whatever money is required to get this
country back. I pray for people like you and their talent to keep Ron Paul
safe. Sometimes it is safer being in the open then behind closed doors.

 

9, I too
have spoken to both serving and retired military personnel and while they have
used different words, they all tell me the same thing. If Ron Paul dies, the
gloves come off.

 

10, Thank
you, Mr. Stang, for a wonderful Christmas present. You have the courage to put
into words what I have been feeling all along. I have set up Ron Paul booths at
gun shows and I have talked at length with the attendees. There is a large
group of militia men in this country simmering under the radar. As the
foreclosures rise and unemployment gets worse, their recruitment figures will
skyrocket. The first gun show I ever went to, I was amazed, the line to get in
was 5 abreast and 1/4 mile long. Wow! They try to stop the purchases of assault
rifles and handguns by registration and waiting periods. Only fools register
guns and cash is king.

 

We can replace Dr Paul in an instant; it’s not the man, it’s the message. His
son, Rand, can step into his shoes without missing a step. I would prefer a
younger leader, perhaps with a bigger, ruthless streak. I would prefer that we
prosecute the criminals that stole our country and murdered millions.

 

Maybe, our answer to them should be what the African-Americans did to get their
attention, a Million Man March. We should make a slight change, and do a
Million Gun March. The only problem would be to limit it to a million because
I, for one, would probably carry about 5. These guns would be loaded, although
the chamber should be empty. Any resistance to the march will be met with
overwhelming force kind of like holding back a tsunami. The NRA Lobby building
could be our target similar to the Bastille in the French Revolution. We would
get their attention. Thanks again and Merry Christmas.

 

11, I just
saw Bill Kristol on Fox and he called Dr. Paul a crank and every other anti-
American thing he could think of. It was the most vicious attack I ever heard
on TV against anyone. You are right; the “Chain of Command for Treason” is
really scared.

 

12, Sir: I
always enjoy your writings, but this one is beyond anything I have read in a
long, long time. I certainly hope our “elites” and their useful
idiots read this and attempt to comprehend it. If they kill Dr. Paul, or if he
has a “heart attack,” or a fatal accident, they will open up a can of whup-axx
that they cannot imagine in their wildest nightmares. There are not enough
traitors in Blackwood or whatever-the-hell these mercenaries call themselves to
save even one of these elitists. Like you said, we know who they are, who their
family members are, and where they live. All the money in the world will not be
able to save them. The Six-Pack-of-S–t that they will open will begin with
.50, yes. But it will also begin with .45, .40 and .223. Is Dr. Paul our last
hope? I along with Millions of others fervently believe so. There are 80 or so
MILLION Americans that are armed, and I’ll bet that 50% support Dr. Paul. I
don’t normally use language like this, but I did this time to simply underscore
my feelings about this. Keep up the great work and pray for the continued
health of our man. Regards

 

13, YOU’D
BETTER BELIEVE THEY’D HAVE A PROBLEM ON THEIR HANDS. There’s a lot of fat axxed
really old men who can still hit a man sized target at 400 yards with iron
sights with a .308 or .30-06 – add another 200 or so with a scope. And plenty
of them can do head shots at 400 with their 7mm and .30 magnums. How much armor
do these elitists think they can put around themselves, particularly when a
.50, for example, gets lobbed in at close to a 40 degree angle at 1500 – 2000
yards, right over the heads of their “guards” and related personnel! Yassir, I
think they just might have a serious shooting revolution on their hands!
Particularly since an awful lot of those old farxts will be dead of natural
causes before the gov’t can get them executed!

 

14, I
personally, would be very, very, very angry if something “happens” to this
particular American. The “elite” might be better off to put up with his
presidency for four years … rather than initiate a WORLD-WIDE “Turner’s
Diaries” situation. As you and I (and many others) know, there are too many
people with hatred that, even now, simmers just barely beneath the surface for
the various world governments to contain them in any fashion. Thanks for your
“black flag” warning.

 

15, I think
it is too late. . . . The B-52 incident at Barksdale proved that the powers
that be are too few to push our military or intelligence services. . . .
Honestly, if the average human could blame all of their misery on one group of
rich, old, ugly white men there wouldn’t be enough Blackwaters to help. I know
these men are scared, but, I think they missed their chance. I don’t think
turning Dr. Paul into a martyr is on their agenda.

 

There are literally 10’s of millions of people in the United States who would
unify in the event of an attempt on the doc. Millions of Americans already know
that any problem with the doc can be instantly traced to the bad guys. This
will increase the amount of scrutiny on the bad guys by a factor of 100 . . .
not a good thing for the bad guys.

 

This would be the end of the handful of crazies who sit on top of the world.
These men are driven by fear. Every decision they make is trying to make the
illusion of control real. . . . The tipping point has been reached. Dr. Paul
was merely the focal point. Millions are unified now and the bad guys will have
to work out plan B and pray.

 

One thing researchers of the NWO never include in their Orwellian treatise. The
NWO is about 2 or 3 thousand men and 10 or 20 thousand paid lackeys. This group
is badly outnumbered, Mr. Stang. The cause for martial law was lost this summer
thank God and it is getting “loster” every moment.

 

Since March at least 1 to 2 million Americans have learned the nature of the
political system from the internet. The genius Bilderbergers missed that one
didn’t they? They need malinformed apathetic people to ignore the man behind
the curtain. Millions of bloodthirsty, well informed, authority hating
Americans backed by 60,000,000 constitution toting gun owners are communicating
with each other every second. Spreading the truth, candidate or not. If they
hurt Dr. Paul it will be the end of them. It will unify the already unified and
reinforce them by a factor of ten. They are better off letting him win and
trying to stop him when he is in office. They need all of us to calm down so
they can get back to pulling the strings.

 

No, Mr. Stang, the bad guys had their chance. They guessed wrong. They really
had no idea that people would fight to the death for freedom and there are too
many fighters for them to win this war.

 

16, I have
friends who are sleeping in tents and their cars, leasing a blimp, etc. because
RON MUST WIN or else the republic is an idea whose time has come and gone. I
was moved by your article and hope all my friends in DC, NH, and SC read this.
I advocate Dr. Paul pick his VP now and his VP pick his VP ahead of time should
that be necessary. The only difference between u.s. and a banana republic is
that we don’t export bananas only arms and war.

 

17, Very
well written, very well put, and so very true. There are “bubbas” in
Arkansas that can drop a ten point buck at a half mile with a .22 magnum, so a
shot like that with a .300 mag or a .308 would be a piece of cake at three
quarters of a mile to a mile. The death of Dr. Paul would open up hunting
season.

 

18, Bravo on
your latest Ron Paul article. Hopefully they would not dare go through with
killing Dr. Paul. Your article is spot on as to what would happen if they
tried. Most people, however, do not get it. Dr. Paul is not the revolution –
freedom is! This movement is bigger than Dr. Paul. It has awakened something in
all of us that has been sleeping for far too long. Dr. Paul is just the face of
it – not the heart of it. They can kill him but they will only make a martyr
out of him and help the movement grow even larger. They should be scared. Their
days are numbered. Liberty or death!

 

That concludes the excerpts. Remember that the Dr. No movement is unlike
anything else in our history. It consists of every kind of American, every
race, religion, age and financial status, civilian and military, both sexes,
etc. Did I leave someone out? They are buying out the gun shows to the walls.
How likely is it that they will turn everything in like good little boys and
girls when the government calls? Well, how likely is it that el presidente
Jorge W. Boosh will convert to Christianity?

Huckabee shameful record, Presidential Candidates

Huckabee Exposed as New World Order Puppet

Huckabee Exposed as New World Order Puppet

Mike Huckabee recently named Richard
Haas (the President of the CFR) as his advisor on foreign policy. CNN’s WOLF
BLITZER asked “Who are your principal foreign policy advisers,
Governor?” Mike Huckabee responded: “Well, I have a number of people
from whom I get policy. I’m talking to Frank Gaffney, I talk to Richard
Haas”

So what does Richard Haas believe
in? Here’s an article below which was written by Haas for the Tapei
Times. It basically states the Bill of Rights and Constitution should
be given up in favor of a cooperative world body run by elite consensus. Who
needs individual rights in the techno-futuristic world police state? And you
thought liberty was in jeopardy now? Just wait till you see what your children
will have to deal with. Get activated folks, These police state freaks want to
shape your future into a control grid enforced through the fear based
reaction to state sponsored false flag terror.

State
Sovereignty Must be Altered in Globalized Era

In the age
of globalization, states should give up some sovereignty to world bodies in
order to protect their own interests

By Richard Haass

Taipei Times – For 350 years, sovereignty — the notion
that states are the central actors on the world stage and that governments are
essentially free to do what they want within their own territory but not within
the territory of other states — has provided the organizing principle of
international relations. The time has come to rethink this notion.

The world’s 190-plus states now
co-exist with a larger number of powerful non-sovereign and at least partly
(and often largely) independent actors, ranging from corporations to
non-governmental organizations (NGOs), from terrorist groups to drug cartels,
from regional and global institutions to banks and private equity funds. The
sovereign state is influenced by them (for better and for worse) as much as it
is able to influence them. The near monopoly of power once enjoyed by sovereign
entities is being eroded.

As a result, new mechanisms are
needed for regional and global governance that include actors other than
states. This is not to argue that Microsoft, Amnesty International, or Goldman
Sachs be given seats in the UN General Assembly, but it does mean including
representatives of such organizations in regional and global deliberations when
they have the capacity to affect whether and how regional and global challenges
are met.

Less is more

Moreover,
states must be prepared to cede some sovereignty to world bodies if the
international system is to function. This is already taking place in the trade
realm. Governments agree to accept the rulings of the WTO because on balance
they benefit from an international trading order even if a particular decision
requires that they alter a practice that is their sovereign right to carry out.

Some governments are prepared to
give up elements of sovereignty to address the threat of global climate change.
Under one such arrangement, the Kyoto Protocol, which runs through 2012,
signatories agree to cap specific emissions. What is needed now is a successor
arrangement in which a larger number of governments, including the US, China, and
India, accept emissions limits or adopt common standards because they recognize
that they would be worse off if no country did.

All of this suggests that
sovereignty must be redefined if states are to cope with globalization. At its
core, globalization entails the increasing volume, velocity, and importance of
flows — within and across borders — of people, ideas, greenhouse gases,
goods, dollars, drugs, viruses, e-mails, weapons and a good deal else,
challenging one of sovereignty’s fundamental principles: the ability to control
what crosses borders in either direction. Sovereign states increasingly measure
their vulnerability not to one another, but to forces beyond their control.

Globalization thus implies that
sovereignty is not only becoming weaker in reality, but that it needs to become
weaker. States would be wise to weaken sovereignty in order to protect
themselves, because they cannot insulate themselves from what goes on
elsewhere. Sovereignty is no longer a sanctuary.

This was demonstrated by the
American and world reaction to terrorism. Afghanistan’s Taliban government,
which provided access and support to al-Qaeda, was removed from power.
Similarly, the US’ preventive war against an Iraq that ignored the UN and was
thought to possess weapons of mass destruction showed that sovereignty no
longer provides absolute protection.

Imagine how the world would react if
some government were known to be planning to use or transfer a nuclear device
or had already done so. Many would argue — correctly — that sovereignty
provides no protection for that state.

Necessity may also lead to reducing
or even eliminating sovereignty when a government, whether from a lack of
capacity or conscious policy, is unable to provide for the basic needs of its
citizens. This reflects not simply scruples, but a view that state failure and
genocide can lead to destabilizing refugee flows and create openings for
terrorists to take root.

The NATO intervention in Kosovo was
an example where a number of governments chose to violate the sovereignty of
another government (Serbia) to stop ethnic cleansing and genocide. By contrast,
the mass killing in Rwanda a decade ago and now in Darfur, Sudan, demonstrate
the high price of judging sovereignty to be supreme and thus doing little to
prevent the slaughter of innocents.

Conditions needed

Our notion
of sovereignty must therefore be conditional, even contractual, rather than
absolute. If a state fails to live up to its side of the bargain by sponsoring
terrorism, either transferring or using weapons of mass destruction, or
conducting genocide, then it forfeits the normal benefits of sovereignty and
opens itself up to attack, removal or occupation.

The diplomatic challenge for this
era is to gain widespread support for principles of state conduct and a
procedure for determining remedies when these principles are violated.

The goal should be to redefine
sovereignty for the era of globalization, to find a balance between a world of
fully sovereign states and an international system of either world government
or anarchy.

The basic idea of sovereignty, which
still provides a useful constraint on violence between states, needs to be
preserved. But the concept needs to be adapted to a world in which the main
challenges to order come from what global forces do to states and what
governments do to their citizens rather than from what states do to one
another.

Huckabee shameful record, Presidential Candidates

Huckabee stands by ‘Christ’ comment

By LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press WriterSun Dec 30, 5:19 PM ET

Mike Huckabee, a Republican relying on support from
religious conservatives in Thursday’s hard-fought presidential caucuses, on
Sunday stood by a decade-old comment in which he said, “I hope we answer
the alarm clock and take this nation back for Christ.”

In a television interview, the ordained Southern Baptist
minister and former Arkansas governor made no apologies for the 1998 comment
made at a Southern Baptist Convention meeting in Salt Lake City.

“It was a speech made to a Christian gathering, and,
and certainly that would be appropriate to be said to a gathering of Southern
Baptists,” Huckabee said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

He gave the speech the same year he endorsed the Baptist
convention’s statement of beliefs on marriage that “a wife is to submit graciously
to the servant leadership of her husband even as the church willingly submits
to the headship of Christ.” Huckabee and his wife, Janet, signed a
full-page ad in USA Today in support of the statement with 129 other
evangelical leaders.

The former governor, who rallied Christian evangelicals to
make him a surprise force in Iowa, has put his faith front and center in his
campaign. His stump speech sounds like a pastor’s pitch from a pulpit. Campaign
ads emphasize faith and call him a Christian leader. He frequently quotes Bible
verses.

As his fortunes have improved, Huckabee has faced a drumbeat
of questions and criticism about his gubernatorial record and the role of faith
in his administration. He also has made some missteps while trying to fend off
a challenge — and critical TV ads — from Mitt Romney, a former Massachusetts
governor and Mormon whose faith unsettles some religious conservatives.

Four days before the caucuses Thursday, a new poll found
Huckabee’s surge may have stalled; his once double-digit lead over Romney has
evaporated. Private polling shows the two in a dead heat.

The television interview was Huckabee’s only campaign
appearance Sunday.

With the media throng following him having grown immensely,
Huckabee scrapped a public event at a church in favor of attending a private
service closed to reporters. Instead of courting voters, he hunkered down to
film new TV ads, perhaps spots responding to Romney’s barrage of critical
commercials.

As recently as Friday, Huckabee insisted he wanted to run a
positive campaign. He also reserved the right to respond aggressively.

“Hopefully we’ll just be talking about issues,”
Romney told reporters Sunday. In contrast to Huckabee, Romney had a full slate
of events on a bus tour of eastern Iowa.

In the NBC interview, Huckabee, a longtime opponent of
legalized abortion, said he does not believe that women should be punished for
undergoing the procedure, but that doctors might need to face sanctions.

“I don’t know that you’d put him in prison, but there’s
something to me untoward about a person who has committed himself to healing
people and to making people alive who would take money to take an innocent life
and to make that life dead,” Huckabee said.

He also argued that his emphasis on his Christian beliefs
does not mean he’s alienating atheists. He said, if elected, he would have no
problem appointing atheists to government posts.

“The key issue of real faith is that it never can be
forced on someone. And never would I want to use the government institutions to
impose mine or anybody else’s faith or to restrict,” Huckabee said.

Those skeptical of the role of faith in his presidency, he
said, should look at his record in Arkansas.

“I didn’t ever propose a bill that we would remove the
Capitol dome of Arkansas and replace it with a steeple,” he said.
“You know, we didn’t do tent revivals on the grounds of the Capitol.”

Media’s Masters Adore Huckabee

By Michael Collins Piper AFP

December 26, 2007

http://www.americanfr…

The media elite is having a honeymoon with Mike Huckabee. As an ordained
Southern Baptist minister, Huckabee is the darling of evangelical
Christians, but why would the major media, dominated by atheists and
agnostics who are traditionally hostile to evangelicals, suddenly
undergo this conversion?

Media?s Masters Adore Huckabee

By Michael Collins Piper AFP

Many good conservatives are said to be captivated with the former
governor of Arkansas ?Mike Huckabee, not that other former Arkansas
governor, William Jefferson Clinton.

It seemed as if just at the moment Texas populist Ron Paul was beginning
to make waves, with even The Washington Post reporting Paul’s
grass-roots campaign threatened, in the Post’s words, to “upend”
the
Republican presidential primary campaign,the mass media began focusing
on Huckabee, whom they had previously ignored.

For his own part, Huckabee has said he can support any of his Republican
competitors with the notable exception of Paul. As governor, and until
running for president, Huckabee strongly supported amnesty for illegal
aliens and called for extending health and welfare benefits to them. He
also raised taxes many times as governor.

There is good reason to believe powerful backstage forces are behind the
Huckabee “surge,” and some observers suspect Huckabee is being
promoted
by the media’s owners precisely to redirect attention away from Paul’s
burgeoning grass-roots campaign.

That Huckabee was governor of Arkansas may point toward “special”
backing. Arkansas has long been a fiefdom, an outpost, of the New
York-based Rockefeller family whose satellites in Arkansas, such as the
Stevens banking empire, which backed Bill Clinton, now supporting Huckabee.

One of the Rockefeller brothers, Winthrop, was elected governor of
Arkansas as a Republican in the 1960s with the backing of a young Bill
Clinton, a liberal “Democrat for Rockefeller.” Then, although many
Huckabee fans and foes alike seem to have forgotten it, while Huckabee
was governor, Rockefeller’s son, Winthrop Jr., was Huckabee’s lieutenant
governor, only to die prematurely of a blood disorder.

Should there be any doubt Huckabee is oriented toward cold, hard power
politics, he recently told The New York Times Magazine that he takes his
foreign policy leads from such seemingly diverse forces as liberal New
York Times columnist Thomas Friedman and “neo-conservative” power
broker
Frank Gaffney.

Although these Huckabee gurus are ostensibly “different,” they have
one
thing in common: all are hard-line supporters of Israel, with Gaffney
having been one of the key propagandists promoting U.S. involvement in
Iraq and now touting the need for a U.S. attack on Iran.

Washington insiders have not failed to note that Huckabee has received a
boost from big names in the Establishment media, ranging from
influential liberal columnists such as longtime Democratic operative
Donna Brazile to David Broder, undisputed dean of the “elite”
columnists.

These media figures (and others) tout Huckabee as a likeable fellow, a
hard-driving “winner” who could add a lot to the GOP ticket, if not
as
its presidential nominee, certainly in the second slot.

While evangelical Christians are delighted that Huckabee, a former
Baptist minister, advertises himself as a “Christian leader,” the
fact
Huckabee seems to be getting an unusually favorable welcome from the
major media is intriguing. The media has never promoted Christian
“leaders” unless those “leaders” had the implicit backing
of the elite
behind-the-scenes owners of the media.

All told, there’s clearly more to the Huckabee phenomenon than meets the
eye.

Those Lincolnian Anti-Paul Smears

Posted by Anthony Gregory at December 27, 2007 01:14 PM

On the one hand, it shows how desperate the MSM is that they will
attack Paul on one of the popular wars in American mythology —
Lincoln’s war on the American people — rather than on the current war,
on which most Americans agree with Paul that it’s time to get out. But
it is great to see Ron Paul refuse to back down. I remember when I
first read Harry Browne’s Why Government Doesn’t Work, back in 1996,
and it had a little dose of Civil War revisionism, and I found it
fascinating and refreshing, and sensible. Since then, I have been
astonished by the number of pro-Lincoln libertarians I’ve met. It seems
that in the name of freedom (and, more important, nationalism) it is
seen as totally justified to enslave people, murder them, set civilian
towns on fire, rape, pillage, torture, censor, and destroy habeas
corpus. But by bringing the Late Unpleasantness up as a campaign issue,
as an attack point against Ron, the MSM has exposed our national
mythology’s most crucial element — the Sainthood of Abe — to the
scrutiny of a consistent opponent of war and militarism. Big mistake.

George W. Bush and the Republican establishment are, if nothing else, Lincolnian,
regardless of what anyone might say. The party of corporatism,
imperialism, centralism, economic fascism, dictatorship, aggressive
war, militaristic duplicity, conscription, direct taxation, cronyism
and police statism has never strayed much from its 1860s roots. And it
has always advanced despotism in the name of liberty and national
honor, from Lincoln to Teddy, from Nixon to Reagan, from the Bushes to
Benito.

Ron Paul is indeed an exception within the GOP. And he has stood up,
heroically, to the Lincoln myth. This will get people thinking —
perhaps there is something similarly wrong with aggressive war on the
Iraqis and on the Southerners, a continuity between the rape of Atlanta
and the rape of Fallujah, between Lincoln’s internal improvements and
Bush’s Haliburtonization of Middle East policy. Maybe Operation Iraqi
Freedom and the War Between the States were both murderous and
deceitful. Maybe the two Republican administrations to suspend habeas
corpus unilaterally, only to have their kept Congresses rubberstamp the
tyranny, have a lot in common, after all.

No one serious who really thinks about it for more than 45 seconds
can conclude there would still be slave plantations in America if not
for Lincoln, so that smear just won’t work. Black Americans won’t fall
for it either, despite the PC establishment that has taken for granted
this demographic for so long. Americans of color can tell which
Republicans are a genuine and grave threat to their liberty, and it’s
not the one who challenges the corporatist warfare state that has
always depended upon blacks as cannon fodder.

But Ron Paul has done something that no presidential candidate of
any prominence has done in many, many years — he has challenged the
cult of Lincoln, the ideological godhead of the modern American regime.
The Federal Reserve, the Income Tax, the Wilsonian empire and now the
Lincolnian central state have all become national issues of discourse
again. Thanks, Ron Paul. Once again, you have told the American people
what they need to hear. If we want America to become a free country, we
must go further than overturning the legacy of George W. Bush. We must
overturn much more, and replace it with liberty itself. We are closer
to that goal than ever, as the ideological basis for the modern
American system is crumbling at every moment of exposure to Dr. Paul’s
truth serum.

Huckabee lies on scholarships for illegals, Huckabee shameful record, Presidential Candidates

Flim-Flam Huckabee by Cutler

327 Comments


FLIM-FLAM HUCKABEE

 

by Michael Cutler
December 30, 2007
NewsWithViews.com

An
excellent article appeared in Wednesday’s edition of the Washington
Times and merits your consideration, not only in terms of evaluating
Presidential Candidate Huckabee, but to also understand the concerns
I have about most politicians and the way that all too many of them
have become skilled at the craft of creating illusions. Of course
my focus is generally limited to immigration and border security but
I believe that you can find so many other areas where politicians
will attempt to create the impression that they are effectively addressing
an issue while maintaining the status quo.

It
may be that Mike Huckabee really wants to address the immigration
crisis confronting our nation, but I am baffled as to why he did not
follow through with the program in his state of Arkansas to enable
local law enforcement to receive the critical training under the provisions
of Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act that would
have effectively deputized a number of state law enforcement officers
to enable them to work cooperatively with law enforcement personnel
at ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement).

Consider
this quote from the article about then Governor Huckabee’s failure
to complete the process that would have empowered Arkansas state police
officers to enforce provisions of the Immigration and Nationality
Act:

Mr.
Huckabee’s campaign acknowledged he didn’t follow through, but said
it was lack of time, not lack of interest.

Mr.
Huckabee really needs to explain what this statement means. How could
he claim that he lacked the time to make certain that the program
that apparently so many of his constituents wanted prevented him from
completing the process he began? Perhaps I am mistaken about Mr. Huckabee,
but frankly my concern is clear. He began an important program in
his state that could have helped with the enforcement of the immigration
laws and then abandoned this effort. We the People have the right
to know why! We the People have the right to know what he and all
of his opponents really plan to do where the issue of border security
and the effective enforcement and administration of the immigration
laws are concerned.

It
is my contention that there is no issue that has greater significance
for the future of our nation that the immigration issue because it
impacts so many other aspects of our nation. As I have often pointed
out, immigration impacts everything from the economy, the environment,
education and healthcare to criminal justice and national security.
Yet the politicians on both sides of the political aisle have been
fighting hard to prevent the borders from being secured and to prevent
the creation of an immigration bureaucracy that has even a modicum
of integrity, even after the horrific attacks of September 11, 2001
and the findings of the 911 Commission in terms of the role that immigration
benefit fraud played in the embedding process utilized by the terrorists
who killed so many innocent people.

I
have heard Mr. Huckabee state that he favored providing in-state tuition
for the children of illegal aliens claiming he did not want to penalize
the children of illegal aliens. In point of fact, the children of
illegal aliens are, themselves, illegal aliens. Additionally, they
may well be the children of illegal aliens although with the rampant
issue of immigration benefit fraud that has been amply documented
in one GAO report after another and one OIG report after another,
I also fear that if our nation was stupid enough to create such a
lucrative benefit for such “children” that the fraud rates would be
astronomical!


Advertisement

Finally
while these illegal aliens are the children of illegal aliens they
are not minors! We are talking about adult illegal aliens who would
be provided with the opportunity to remain in the United States and
file applications for their family members while being provided with
a level of financial assistance our nation does not provide to United
States citizen college students! This is the equivalent of my providing
a steak dinner with all the trimmings to my neighbors kids each night
for many years while feeding my own kids tuna fish and macaroni! If
I did this as a parent you would question my sanity and you would
be correct- yet Mr. Huckabee and other politicians who favor this
seemingly well-intentioned measure would be stabbing our own kids
in the back while opening yet another Pandora’s Box that would invite
massive fraud!

Mr.
Huckabee and his opponents need to explain their positions and their
justification for the positions that they take. They also need to
provide concrete proposals for securing our borders and creating a
secure immigration system. The Border Fence Bill was passed by the
Congress and signed into law by the President. I was called to appear
on many television programs to discuss the fence. I made it clear
that I doubted that the fence would ever be built. Then I was asked
about the “Virtual Fence.” My ‘sound bite’ was that “The Virtual Fence
would stop virtually no one!” The Virtual Fence will cost loads of
money, but in the end, to arrest illegal aliens your need Border Patrol
agents, jail space, vehicles, detention officers, attorneys, immigration
judges, etc.

To
prevent the entry of illegal aliens you need physical fences. Creating
a high-tech “Virtual Fence” that sounds alarms when illegal aliens
run the border is next to worthless unless there are enough agents
and all of the other components in place to stop and apprehend the
intruders. We also need to have enough special agents at ICE along
with other resources to back-stop the Border Patrol and the beleaguered
Customs and Border Protection inspectors at ports of entry so that
when aliens run our borders or are admitted through ports of entry
only to overstay their authorized period of admission or otherwise
violate their terms of admission they are likely to be found and apprehended.
Today there is a shortage of Border Patrol agents and an absolutely
outrageous shortage of special agents at ICE.


(As I have often noted, New York City has been consistently found
to be the safest big city in the United States- a fact largely attributable
to the fact that the NYPD has approximately 38,000 police officers
who are well trained and have incredible resources. ICE has about
6,000 special agents and they are responsible for enforcing customs
laws as well as immigration laws. Meanwhile
New York City has approximately 8 million residents and covers about
400 square miles while there are probably over 20 million illegal
aliens in the United States who are scattered across one-third of
the North American continent!) It is likely that fewer than 4,000
ICE special agents are engaged in the critical mission of enforcing
the immigration laws for the entire United States of America! Additionally,
most of the leaders at ICE came from Legacy Customs and not from Legacy
Immigration. Their orientation and background leaves much to be desired
where the effective enforcement of the immigration laws are concerned.
As one of my former colleagues at ICE told me during a recent conversation,
those bosses are more concerned with busting a gang that produces
counterfeit Gucci briefcases than counterfeit passports!

We
the People need to hear specific proposals from the candidates for
the Presidency. That is our right! We should think of the debates
and campaigns as a sort of job interview. The occupant of the Oval
Office, I would remind you, is our employee. The candidates understand
that they need to garner the votes in order to win the election. We
the People need to end our passivity about the campaign for the Presidency
and need to have our voices heard. Similarly we need to take a far
more active role in writing to our other politicians who seek to be
elected or re-elected to positions as members of Congress as well
as those seeking elections on the state and local levels. That is
how democracy is supposed to work. When we sit down in a diner to
order a meal we tend to be very specific about what we want to eat
and how we want it prepared. We must be at least as specific about
who we will hire to lead our nation especially in this perilous era.
This is not only our right, it is our obligation!

Sing ‘Huckelujah’

Posted 12/26/2007 ET
Updated 12/26/2007 ET

 

All I want for Christmas is for Christians to listen to what Mike
Huckabee says, rather than what the media say about him. The mainstream media
keep flogging Huckabee for being a Christian, apparently unaware that this
“God” fellow is testing through the roof in focus groups.

Huckabee is a “compassionate conservative” only in the sense that
calling him a conservative is being compassionate.

He responded to my column last week — pointing out that he is on record
supporting the Supreme Court’s sodomy-is-a-constitutional-right decision — by
saying that he was relying on the word of a caller to his radio show and didn’t
know the details of the case. Ironically, that’s how most people feel about
sodomy: They support it until they hear the details.

First, I’d pay a lot of money to hear how a court opinion finding that sodomy
is a constitutional right could be made to sound reasonable. But the caller had
the right response when Huckabee asked him, “What’s your favorite radio
station?” So he seemed like a reliable source.

Second, Huckabee’s statement that he agreed with the court’s sodomy ruling was
made one week after the decision. According to Nexis, in that one week, the
sodomy decision had been the cover story on every newspaper in the country,
including The New York Times. It was the talk of all the Sunday news programs.
It had been denounced by every conservative and Christian group in America —
as well as other random groups of sane individuals having no conservative
inclinations whatsoever.

The highest court in the land had found sodomy was a constitutional right! That
sort of thing tends to make news. (I was going to say the sodomy ruling got
publicity up the wazoo, but this is, after all, Christmas week.)

So this little stretch-marked cornpone is either lying, has a closed head
injury, is a complete ignoramus — or all of the above.

Huckabee opposes school choice, earning him the coveted endorsement of the
National Education Association of New Hampshire, which is like the sheriff
being endorsed by the local whorehouse.

He is, however, in favor of school choice for kids in Mexico: They have the
choice of going to school there or here. Huckabee promoted giving in-state
tuition in Arkansas to illegal immigrants from Mexico — but not to U.S.
citizens from Ohio. “I don’t believe you punish the children,” he
said, “for the crime and sins of the parents.”

Since when is not offering someone lavish taxpayer-funded benefits a form of
punishment? That’s almost as crazy as a governor pardoning a known sex offender
so he can go out and rape and kill.

Huckabee claims he’s against punishing children for the crimes of their fathers
in the case of illegal immigrants. But in the case of slavery, he believes the
children of the children’s children should be routinely punished for the crimes
of their fathers. Huckabee has said illegal immigration gives Americans a
chance to make up for slavery. (I thought letting O.J. walk for murdering two
people was payback for slavery.)

Just two years ago, Huckabee cheerfully announced to a meeting of the Hispanic
advocacy group League of United Latin American Citizens that “Pretty soon,
Southern white guys like me may be in the minority.” Who’s writing this
guy’s speeches — Al Sharpton? (Actually, take out “Southern” and
“white,” and I agree with Huckabee’s sentiment).

He said the transition from Arkansas’ Southern traditions would “require
extraordinary efforts on both sides of the border.” But, curiously, most
of the efforts Huckabee described would come entirely from this side of the
border. Arkansas, he pledged, would celebrate diversity “in culture, in
language and in population.” He said America would have to
“accommodate” those who come here.

All that he expected from those south of the border was that they have a desire
to provide better opportunities for their families. Basically, we have to keep
accommodating everyone but U.S. citizens.

For those of you keeping score at home, this puts Huckabee just a little to the
left of Dennis Kucinich on illegal immigration and border control. The only
difference is that Kucinich supports amnesty for aliens from south of the
border and north of Saturn.

In a widely quoted remark, Huckabee denounced a Republican bill that would
merely require proof of citizenship to vote and receive government benefits as
“un-Christian, un-American, irresponsible and anti-life,” according
to the Arkansas News Bureau. Now, where have I heard this sort of thing before?
Hmmm … wait, now I remember: It was during the Democratic debates!

In his current attempt to pretend to be against illegal immigration, Huckabee
makes a meaningless joke about how the federal government should track illegals
the way Federal Express tracks packages. (Can a Mexican fit in one of those
little envelopes?)

In other words, Huckabee is going to address the problem of illegal immigration
by making jokes. It’s called leadership, folks.

Huckabee confirms for liberal TV hosts their image of conservatives as dorks by
bragging about how cool he is because he “likes music.” What’s he
doing — running for president or filling out his Facebook profile? Arkansas
former fatty loves to make jokes and play the bass guitar. Remember what
happened to the last former fatboy from Arkansas trying to be “cool”
by liking music? I’ll take “Stained Dresses” for $400, Alex.

According to Huckabee, most people think conservatives don’t like music. Who on
earth says conservatives don’t like music — other than liberals and Mike
Huckabee? This desperate need to be liked by liberals has never led to anything
but calamity.

Huckabee wants to get kids involved in music at an early age because he
believes it leads to a more balanced and developed brain. You know, as we saw
with the Jackson family. Maybe someone should tell him the Osmonds are voting
for Romney.

He supports a nationwide smoking ban anyplace where people work, constitutional
protection for sodomy, big government, higher taxes and government benefits for
illegal aliens. According to my calculations, that puts him about three
earmarks away from being Nancy Pelosi.

Liberals take a perverse pleasure in touting Huckabee because they know he will
give them everything they want — big government and a Christian they can roll.

(Ron
Paul says: “When we subsidize something we get more of it”)
 
Can Mike Huckabee serve the cause of liberty
if he is already playing ball with the CFR?
 
Perhaps
we overlooked Mike Huckabee’s record for raising taxes:

Perhaps
we overlooked Mike Huckabee’s the betrayal of home schooling.
 
Perhaps
we overlooked Mike Huckabee’s pardon of the man who raped and killed another
woman.
 
Perhaps
we overlooked Mike Huckabee’s lying when he claimed that he was the only
candidate with a theology degree. 
 
Perhaps
we overlooked Mike Huckabee’s participation with the band, Capitol Offense,
which sings off color songs inconsistent, with his image as a pastor. 
 
At
a meeting of the Republican Governors Association, Huckabee pretended to
receive a phone call from God, on his cell phone. In the style of Bob Newhart,
Huckabee made God into a Straight Man in a comedy routine.
 
Huckabee’s
Phone Call From God:

On the phone for me? How did he get my number? . . . . Yes, God? Yes, sir, I’m
right in the middle of the president’s coming. . . . . You see, you say you
want–you need an autograph. Oh, for Samson. . . . And, you know, God, this is a
pretty big event. We’ve got a lot of people and I’ve only got a very short time
here. Oh, you’ve got all the time in the world. I understand. . . . Yes, sir,
we know you don’t take sides in the election. But, if you did, we kind of think
you’d hang in there with us, lord, we really do. . . .
 
The
candidates will all try to sound like Ron Paul if he scares them enough, but do
not forget what they really are. 
 
Eight
out of twelve of them are CFR members.
As we now see, Mike Huckabee is very closely tied to the CFR.
Tom Tancredo dropped out.
That only leaves only Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter, who are not CFR stooges.

Judicial Watch Announces List of Washington’s “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt
Politicians” for 2007

Washington, DC –Judicial Watch, the public interest
group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, today released
its 2007 list of Washington’s “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians.”  The
list, in alphabetical order, includes:

1.  Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton
(D-NY):  In addition to her long and sordid ethics record, Senator Hillary
Clinton took a lot of heat in 2007 – and rightly so – for blocking the release
her official White House records.  Many suspect these records contain a
treasure trove of information related to her role in a number of serious
Clinton-era scandals.  Moreover, in March 2007, Judicial Watch filed an
ethics complaint against Senator Clinton for filing false financial disclosure
forms with the U.S. Senate (again).  And Hillary’s top campaign
contributor, Norman Hsu, was exposed as a felon and a fugitive from justice in
2007.  Hsu pleaded guilt to one count of grand theft for defrauding
investors as part of a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme.

2.  Rep. John Conyers (D-MI):  Conyers
reportedly repeatedly violated the law and House ethics rules, forcing his
staff to serve as his personal servants, babysitters, valets and campaign
workers while on the government payroll.  While the House Ethics Committee
investigated these allegations in 2006, and substantiated a number of the
accusations against Conyers, the committee blamed the staff and required
additional administrative record-keeping and employee training.  Judicial
Watch obtained documentation in 2007 from a former Conyers staffer that sheds
new light on the activities and conduct on the part of the Michigan
congressman, which appear to be at a minimum inappropriate and likely
unlawful.  Judicial Watch called on the Attorney General in 2007 to
investigate the matter.

3.  Senator Larry Craig (R-ID):  In one of
the most shocking scandals of 2007, Senator Craig was caught by police
attempting to solicit sex in a Minneapolis International Airport men’s bathroom
during the summer.  Senator Craig reportedly “sent signals” to a police
officer in an adjacent stall that he wanted to engage in sexual activity. 
When the police officer showed Craig his police identification under the
bathroom stall divider and pointed toward the exit, the senator reportedly
exclaimed ‘No!’”  When asked to produce identification, Craig presented police
his U.S. Senate business card and said, “What do you think of that?”  The
power play didn’t work.  Craig was arrested, charged and entered a guilty
plea.  Despite enormous pressure from his Republican colleagues to resign
from the Senate, Craig refused.

4.  Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA):  As a
member of the Senate Appropriations Committee’s subcommittee on military
construction, Feinstein reviewed military construction government contracts,
some of which were ultimately awarded to URS Corporation and Perini, companies
then owned by Feinstein’s husband, Richard Blum. While the Pentagon ultimately
awards military contracts, there is a reason for the review process. The
Senate’s subcommittee on Military Construction’s approval carries weight. Sen.
Feinstein, therefore, likely had influence over the decision making
process.  Senator Feinstein also attempted to undermine ethics reform in
2007, arguing in favor of a perk that allows members of Congress to book
multiple airline flights and then cancel them without financial penalty. 
Judicial Watch’s investigation into this matter is ongoing. 

5.  Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani
(R-NY):  Giuliani came under fire in late 2007 after it was discovered the
former New York mayor’s office “billed obscure city agencies for tens of
thousands of dollars in security expenses amassed during the time when he was
beginning an extramarital relationship with future wife Judith Nathan in the
Hamptons…”  ABC News also reported that Giuliani provided Nathan with a
police vehicle and a city driver at taxpayer expense.  All of this news
came on the heels of the federal indictment on corruption charges of Giuliani’s
former Police Chief and business partner Bernard Kerik, who pleaded guilty in
2006 to accepting a $165,000 bribe in the form of renovations to his Bronx apartment
from a construction company attempting to land city contracts.

6.  Governor Mike Huckabee (R-AR): 
Governor Huckabee enjoyed a meteoric rise in the polls in December 2007, which
prompted a more thorough review of his ethics record.  According to The
Associated Press:  “[Huckabee’s] career has also been colored by 14 ethics
complaints and a volley of questions about his integrity, ranging from his
management of campaign cash to his use of a nonprofit organization to subsidize
his income to his destruction of state computer files on his way out of the
governor’s office.”  And what was Governor Huckabee’s response to these
ethics allegations?  Rather than cooperating with investigators, Huckabee
sued the state ethics commission twice and attempted to shut the ethics process
down.

7.  I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby:  Libby,
former Chief of Staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, was sentenced to 30 months
in prison and fined $250,000 for lying and obstructing the Valerie Plame CIA
leak investigation.  Libby was found guilty of four felonies — two counts
of perjury, one count of making false statements to the FBI and one count of
obstructing justice – all serious crimes.  Unfortunately, Libby was
largely let off the hook.  In an appalling lack of judgment, President
Bush issued “Executive Clemency” to Libby and commuted the sentence.

8.  Senator Barack Obama (D-IL):  A
“Dishonorable Mention” last year, Senator Obama moves onto the “ten most
wanted” list in 2007.  In 2006, it was discovered that Obama was involved
in a suspicious real estate deal with an indicted political fundraiser, Antoin
“Tony” Rezko.  In 2007, more reports surfaced of deeper and suspicious
business and political connections  It was reported that just two months
after he joined the Senate, Obama purchased $50,000 worth of stock in
speculative companies whose major investors were his biggest campaign
contributors.  One of the companies was a biotech concern that benefited
from legislation Obama pushed just two weeks after the senator purchased $5,000
of the company’s shares.  Obama was also nabbed conducting campaign
business in his Senate office, a violation of federal law.

9.  Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA):  House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who promised a new era of ethics enforcement in the House
of Representatives, snuck a $25 million gift to her husband, Paul Pelosi, in a
$15 billion Water Resources Development Act recently passed by Congress. 
The pet project involved renovating ports in Speaker Pelosi’s home base of San
Francisco.  Pelosi just happens to own apartment buildings near the areas
targeted for improvement, and will almost certainly experience a significant
boost in property value as a result of Pelosi’s earmark.  Earlier in the
year, Pelosi found herself in hot water for demanding access to a luxury Air
Force jet to ferry the Speaker and her entourage back and forth from San
Francisco non-stop, in unprecedented request which was wisely rejected by the
Pentagon.  And under Pelosi’s leadership, the House ethics process remains
essentially shut down – which protects members in both parties from
accountability.

10.  Senator Harry Reid (D-NV):  Over the
last few years, Reid has been embroiled in a series of scandals that cast
serious doubt on his credibility as a self-professed champion of government
ethics, and 2007 was no different.  According to The Los Angeles Times,
over the last four years, Reid has used his influence in Washington to help a
developer, Havey Whittemore, clear obstacles for a profitable real estate
deal.  As the project advanced, the Times reported, “Reid received tens of
thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from Whittemore.” 
Whittemore also hired one of Reid’s sons (Leif) as his personal lawyer and then
promptly handed the junior Reid the responsibility of negotiating the real
estate deal with federal officials.  Leif Reid even called his father’s
office to talk about how to obtain the proper EPA permits, a clear conflict of
interest.
