    America First Party 1630 A 30th Street #111 Boulder, Colorado 80301 http://www.AmericaFirstParty.org Monday, 25 November 2002 HOMELAND SECURITY BILL: BAD NAME, BAD BILL Boulder, CO - The America First Party denounces in the strongest possible terms the so-called Homeland Security Bill that President Bush signed into law today. National Chairman Dan Charles stated, "The House and Senate should never have passed this bill, and the President should not have signed it. Members of Congress and the President take an oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution. The misnamed Homeland Security Bill does little to protect and defend our...

    U.N. Violates U.S. Law; Pushes Global Tax Schemes FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE On the eve of the U.N.'s second "Earth Summit," the world body has been caught systematically violating a U.S. law that prohibits the world body from advocating or imposing a global tax on American citizens.

The second Earth Summit, known as the "World Summit on Sustainable Development," is being held August 26-September 4 in South Africa. U.N. advocacy...

Hilary French, who runs "Global Governance Project” of U.S.-based Worldwatch Institute, suggested that Americans had to get over "the sovereignty thing” and embrace global taxes. She endorsed...

    INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT COMING INTO BEING; Senator Daniel Inouye Kills Anti-ICC Legislation A last-minute decision to drop legislative protection for U.S. military personnel against an International Criminal Court (ICC) continues to generate controversy on Capitol Hill. This has set the stage for the implementation of the International Criminal Court (ICC) treaty, with jurisdiction over U.S. military personnel. The ICC may become a reality on April 11, when the 60th country is expected to ratify the treaty. Legislation called the "American Servicemembers' Protection Act" had passed the House of Representatives by a 282 to 137 vote last May and the Senate...

    Senator Gramm Helps Enron but Not Army Soldier Michael New Conservatives Urged to Disavow "The Senator From Enron" Conservative activist journalist Cliff Kincaid has expressed astonishment at the decision by the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) to present the "Defender of the Constitution" award to Senator Phil Gramm at the CPAC February 1 "Ronald Reagan Banquet." Senator Gramm got more Enron money than any other member of Congress (except one) and his wife Wendy, a member of the Enron board and audit committee, could face prison time for her alleged involvement. Kincaid said the award reflects badly on all CPAC ...

    Bush Cabal Heaven: The American Imperial Era Begins According to the Friendly Colonel, the FBI had prior knowledge of "a major attack on a commercial target" -- at least two years before the event took place. His FBI friend, who has been reassigned to an office in Florida, told him about it. Evidently the FBI still won't let him retire. He's one of the old counter-terrorist guys from Bobby Blitzer's division. The FBI claims that they might need them sometime in the future, despite the fact that all of them - his friend and about two dozen other guys -- ...

    Group Backs, Congress Slams 'Guest Worker' Program The millions of illegal Mexican immigrants in the U.S. should be granted guest-worker status or legal residency, according to a proposal written by a study group headed by Secretary of State Colin Powell and Attorney General John Ashcroft. Such a move would be "part of our continued effort to work with the Mexican government toward our shared goal of a more orderly, more humane, legal and safe migration," spokesman Scott McClellan said. The plan, sent to the White House Friday, would give guest-worker status to the immigrants and eventually could lead to ...

    ...we had the fourth break-in and opening of the main headgate for the irrigation project. A few days prior to that, a DC attorney flew into town for a meeting attended by 600 farmers. He won a recent, unprecedented case involving a similar (though much less severe) circumstance in a Federal Court of Claims. The court held that the taking of water was a physical taking of property, and therefore just compensation must follow per the 5th amendment. Anyhow, I went to that and got to ask hims ome questions afterward. He says we have a much better case than ...

    This Cabinet is full of corporate America By Molly Ivins, 2/10/2001 AUSTIN, Texas JIM HIGHTOWER, an invaluable public citizen, once suggested that politicians be forced to wear the corporate logos of their biggest donors in the fashion of NASCAR race drivers so we'd know whom they'd sold out to. Hightower once again has his eye on the shell with the pea under it when it comes to President Bush's Cabinet. The pundit corps has been swooning over the diversity of Bush's picks - four women, a Cuban-American, two African-Americans, a Japanese-American, a Lebanese-American, a Chinese-American, and a Democrat.
