Thomas Jefferson probably wasn't an orthodox Christian.[1] Mr. Bush, Mr. Clinton, and Mr. Carter claim to be Christians. In an election with those four running against each other, Jefferson, though dead, would get my Christian vote. A dead Jefferson would at least veto what a live Bush couldn't.
Between February 5, 1995 and March 17, 2002, Brian Lamb of CNN[2] asked Professor Thomas G. West, Michael Novak and M. Stanton Evans which men of the founding era do they consider most important. Only Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were mentioned by all three.
Christians who repeat the exhortation of John Jay, "Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation, to select and prefer Christians for their rulers." - must also consider the advice of Noah Webster;" When you become entitled to exercise the right of voting for public officers, let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers, 'just men who will rule in the fear of God.'" [3]
Mr. Bush's "fear of God" is documented at BushRevealed.com .[4]
Mr. Bush's commitment to restoring this Constitutional compound Republic is documented by his actions as President:
1 - Mr. Bush stated the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act was probably unconstitutional (Justices Kennedy, Scalia, Thomas & Rehnquist agree)[5] and signed it anyway; violating the oath of office.
Mr. Jefferson responds:"The Constitutions of our several States vary more or less in some particulars. But there are certain principles in which all agree, and which all cherish as vitally essential to the protection of the life, liberty, property, and safety of the citizen...Freedom of the press, subject only to liability for personal injuries." [6] "Our liberty cannot be guarded but by the freedom of the press, nor that be limited without danger of losing it."[7] "The negative of the President can never be used more pleasingly to the public than in the protection of the Constitution."[8]
2 - Mr. Bush has proposed amensty for illegal aliens while failing to pressure congress into passing the Criminal Alien Removal Act Of 2003[9] (Clear Act) and failing to enforce existing federal immigration laws - violating Article IV, Section 4, U.S. Constitution: "The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government and shall protect each of them against invasion and in application of the legislature or of the executive against domestic violence."
Mr. Jefferson responds:"[Is] rapid population [growth] by as great importations of foreigners as possible... founded in good policy?... They will bring with them the principles of the governments they leave, imbibed in their early youth; or, if able to throw them off, it will be in exchange for an unbounded licentiousness, passing, as is usual, from one extreme to another. It would be a miracle were they to stop precisely at the point of temperate liberty. These principles, with their language, they will transmit to their children. In proportion to their number, they will share with us the legislation. They will infuse into it their spirit, warp and bias its direction, and render it a heterogeneous, incoherent, distracted mass... If they come of themselves, they are entitled to all the rights of citizenship: but I doubt the expediency of inviting them by extraordinary encouragements." [10]
3 - Mr. Bush signed the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001; described by Rep. Mike Pence (R.) 2nd District of Indiana in the U.S. House as "The largest expansion of the Department of Education since President Carter created it." He continued; " About 30 House conservatives fought against the bill, but we were soundly defeated by our own colleagues. Our Reaganite belief that education was a local function was labeled "'far right'" by Republicans, and the President signed the bill into law with a smiling Ted Kennedy at his side." [11] What about a No Child Left to an Abortionist Act, in accordance with Jefferson's "all men are created equal...endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life...."
What would communists do? "The education of all children, from the moment that they can get along without a mother's care, shall be in state institutions at state expense." - Karl Marx (1848) [12]
What would Jefferson say? "To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical." [13] "I fear, from the experience of the last twenty-five years, that morals do not of necessity advance hand in hand with the sciences." [14]
What would Jesus do? "Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for such is the kingdom of God." Mark 10:14
4 - Mr. Bush signed the Medicare prescription drug bill that represents the single largest expansion of the federal welfare state since the Great Society programs of the 1960s.
Mr. Jefferson responds:"Having seen the people of all other nations bowed down to the earth under the wars and prodigalities of their rulers, I have cherished their opposites: peace, economy, and riddance of public debt, believing that these were the high road to public as well as private prosperity and happiness." [15] "I... place economy among the first and most important of republican virtues, and public debt as the greatest of the dangers to be feared." [16]
5 - Mr. Bush signed H.R. 2417 / Public Law 108-177, Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004.[17 ]
Again, Jefferson speaks from the dead to the brain dead: "Aristocrats...fear the people, and wish to transfer all power to the higher classes of society." [18 ] "[Montesquieu wrote in Spirit of the Laws, XI,c.4:] 'Constant experience shows us that every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go... To prevent this abuse, it is necessary from the very nature of things that power should be a check to power.'" [19 ] "The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere." [20] "Most codes extend their definitions of treason to acts not really against one's country. They do not distinguish between acts against the government, and acts against the oppressions of the government. The latter are virtues, yet have furnished more victims to the executioner than the former, because real treasons are rare; oppressions frequent. The unsuccessful strugglers against tyranny have been the chief martyrs of treason laws in all countries." [21 ]
6 - "Mr. Bush stated his support for the Assault Weapons ban during the 2000 campaign. A spokesman for the administration stated flatly that the President "'supports the current law, and he supports reauthorization of the current law.'" [22] Mr. Jefferson, please wake the dead: "Theconstitutions of most of our States assert that all power is inherent in the people; that... it is their right and duty to be at all times armed." [23] "None but an armed nation can dispense with a standing army. To keep ours armed and disciplined is therefore at all times important." [24] "God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion... We have had thirteen States independent for eleven years. There has been one rebellion. That comes to one rebellion in a century and a half, for each State. What country before ever existed a century and a half without a rebellion?" [25]
The Second Amendment [26] prevents the Federal government from interfering with the right of people to revolt against the Federal government. It protects the right of individual ownership and the right of collective revolution. The automatic rifle is not even a spitball by comparison to the planes, tanks, submarines and nuclear weapons possessed by the standing army.
Bush's compassionate conservatism reminds me of the communist phrase,"From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." His December 13, 2003, Saturday, signing of the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004 (part of Patriot II ) which drastically expands FBI powers to secretly snoop into the business and financial transactions of American citizens, without a court order and his support of the Assault Weapons Ban, are two of the many incremental and necessary steps toward a police state. His signature on The Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act is most revealing when compared to The Virginia Declaration of Rights, parts of which Jefferson used for the Declaration of Independence,"That the freedom of the press is one of the greatest bulwarks of liberty and can never be restrained but by despotic governments." [27] The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 greatly pleased Ted Kennedy, the National Educational Association, and anyone else who is enthused with the anti-Christian, anti-American, globalist, tree hugging, rock kissing propaganda shoved down the throats of unsuspecting children; not to mention the promotion of sexual anarchy by the sodomites and their advocates, or the monkey-to-man evolution, contrary to Jefferson's"endowed by their CREATOR." The Medicare prescription drug bill will enslave more to government than the white and black slave masters did on their plantations. The illegal alien amnesty plan promotes blatant disregard for the law and promotes the goals of the transnationalists who seek to further dilute the remnant notions of limited government and self-government, by designating immigrant groups as oppressed victims who are entitled to all the benefits of a welfare state, without the requirement to assimilate their benefactors tenets of responsible citizenship.
The difference between Mr.Bush and his Democratic opponent is not a difference in kind, but one of degree. Mr.Bush looks to the right for support, speaks to the center and governs increasingly to the left. Democrats have been saying for years, "I didn't leave the Democrat Party; the Democrats left me," as they found their way into the Big Tent of the GOP, which sacrifices principal after principal to remain in power. If Democrats can tread water long enough to keep from drowning in the river of denial and grab a life line from the Big Tent; can't those who have voted Republican just to defeat a democrat, grab hold of an Independent before being swept down the river of no return.
All who have been abandoned by the GOP must find an Independent Party. Michael Anthony Peroutka [28]is seeking the Presidential nomination of the Constitution Party. His themes are "God-Family-Republic," and, unlike Mr. Bush, he wants to restore our original representative Constitutional republic. The American Patriot Party and the America First Party have similar objectives, but were started after the last Presidential election and may not have a Presidential candidate ready for November.
Mr.Bush and his RNC tacitly apporove of the Naziesque federal judicary inducement of the American abortion holocaust; equating the unconsitiutional opinion of seven modern day Herods with "settled law." The RNC is too busy spending like drunken sailors[29] to force the federal judiciary into compliance with the U.S. Constitution, by using the tools of impeachment, jurisdiction restriction, and appointment.[30 ] Jefferson indicts your inexcusable feebleness: "It will be said, that [a federal] court may encroach on the jurisdiction of the State courts. It may. But there will be a power, to wit, Congress, to watch and restrain them."[31] Most democrats are socialist/communist/globalists. When you have to vote for those who tacitly approve of a Nazi judicary just to defeat the party of Stalin - what in the name of a Jeffersonian Right-to-Life Republic have you accomplished?
A GOP Presidency and Congress provide no incentive for either of those two branches to check/balance the other, as they inflate their Big Tent to accomodate the humps and rumps of every strange camel whose nose has been sniffing the entitlements from under the flaps since Bush 41. Wouldn't a GOP Congress check a Democrat President, or would they send him checks to sign on the taxpayers account; thereby proving to the most deluded of Republican cheerleaders @ FreeRepublic.com - home to the enablers of profligate addicts pillaging at the public trough - that the only hope of achieving their stated goals is to embrace a Party which champions those objectives as a priority instead of a campaign platitude to be discarded after the election. If your vote for an Independent President results in Mr. Bush's defeat this November, you will have everything to gain and nothing to lose.
The National Election Study conducts national surveys of the American electorate in presidential and midterm election years and carries out research and development work through pilot studies in odd-numbered years. Their 7-point scale Party Identification Table[32] reveals the level of dissatisfaction with the two major parties.
From 1952-2002, only 30%, on average, expressed strong sentiment toward the RNC & DNC combined. 36.5% expressed weak sentiment toward the RNC & DNC combined. 31.5 % expressed an Independent identification and the apolitical averaged 2%.
From 1992-2002, Independent Party identification exceeded Democrat Party identification by 1.5%, and DNC identification exceeded RNC identification by 8%. The RNC is presently in control of the Presidency and Congress, with only 27% weak to strong identification since 1992.
It is time to declare INDEPENDENCE [33] from the RNC/DNC socialist, transnational progressive complex. According to Jefferson, "It is the steady abuse of power in other governments which renders that of opposition always the popular party." [34]
Only God and Mr. Bush knows his commitment to Biblical principal. "Our Saviour... has taught us to judge the tree by its fruit, and to leave motives to Him who can alone see into them.".[35] As long as Mr. Bush refuses to lift a finger, or raise his voice against the unconstitutional abortion holocaust [36] allowed by the federal judiciary; his commitment to family and to humanity itself is nonexistent. "The source most often cited by the founding fathers was the Bible, which accounted for 34% of all citations. Deuteronomy was the most frequently cited book of the Bible."[37] "Jesus often quoted from Deuteronomy. In fact, it is almost invariably from this book that He quotes."[38] Deuteronomy 5:17 "You must not murder."[39] As for Country, Mr. Bush stated on a Fox News interview by Brit Hume aired 22 Sept 03, "Yes. You know, look, I have great respect for the media. I mean, our society is a good, solid democracy because of a good, solid media."[40] Mr. Bush should read "Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News", by Bernard Goldberg and leave a copy in the White House, so that no other President gets left behind.

There are upwards of 400,000 individuals who have received final deportation orders that are hiding in our communities. Their appeals have run out, and those orders tell them, "it's time to go." But, the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement can't find them! What's worse, 80,000 of those people have criminal convictions, just like Miguel Angelo Gordoba! They were in the hands of our law enforcement. Can you imagine opening the doors of our prisons and letting 80,000 criminals run back into the streets? Well folks, that's exactly what has happened with these 80,000 criminal aliens. What's more, 3,800 of those people with final deportation orders are from countries with a known Al-Qaeda presence.

[37] No knowledgeable Christian would dispute the importance of the Book of Deuteronomy. Certainly we should take note of the fact that this book is cited more than 50 times in the New Testament. Counting allusions to Deuteronomy, the instances of New Testament use would increase to nearly 200 times. Deuteronomy was our Lord's favorite Old Testament book. Henrietta Mears has written: Jesus often quoted from Deuteronomy. In fact, it is almost invariably from this book that He quotes.

[38] Two professors, Donald S. Lutz and Charles S. Hyneman, reviewed an estimated 15,000 items, closely analyzing 2,200 books, pamphlets, newspaper articles, and monographs with explicitly political content printed between 1760 and 1805. They reduced this number to 916 items, encompassing about one-third of all public political writings longer than 2,000 words.
For these items, Lutz and Hyneman identified 3,154 references to other sources. The source most often cited by the founding fathers was the Bible, which accounted for 34% of all citations. Deuteronomy was the most frequently cited book of the Bible.

[39] NET BIBLE
22tn Traditionally "kill." The verb here (jxr) is generic for homicide but in the OT both killing in war and capital punishment were permitted and even commanded (Deut 13:5, 9; 20:13, 16-17), so the technical meaning here is "murder."
http://www.bible.org/netbible/deu5.htm
As of January 5, 2004, twenty-eight (28) states have enacted laws which recognize unborn children as human victims of violent crimes covered by state laws. Fifteen (15) of these states provide this protection throughout the period of in utero development, while the other 13 provide protection during certain specified stages of development. These laws are sometimes referred to as "fetal homicide" laws.
http://www.nrlc.org/Unborn_Victims/Statehomicidelaws092302.html
The Unborn Victims of Violence Act (S. 1019) would recognize as a legal victim an unborn child who is injured or killed during commission of a federal crime against the baby's mother. A substitute amendment to be offered by Senator Dianne Feinstein would increase penalties for federal crimes against pregnant women - but would recognize only one victim, the mother, and without recognizing any loss of human life if the mother survives the assault. Sharon Rocha, mother of Laci Peterson and grandmother of Conner Peterson, has called such a single-victim proposal "a step away from justice, not toward it." But what does the general public say? If a criminal assaults a woman who carries an unborn child, does that crime have two victims, or only one? Here are three recent national polls on that issue.

Media's Liberal Voice Comes Across Louder Than Rush Limbaugh
And this symphony has long been considered to be liberal -- that is, first of all, largely populated by liberals and, second, often presenting the news from a liberal point of view. Has this been true? Is this still true?
As to the first, there is no question that journalists as a group are much more liberal than conservative and much more so than the general public. The independent media analyst S. Robert Lichter looked at 10 major surveys on the political beliefs and voting patterns of mainstream print and broadcast journalists from 1962 to 1996. As Lichter writes, "the pattern of results is compelling.'' The percentage of journalists who were classified as "liberals'' were, survey to survey: 57, 53, 59, 42, 54, 50, 32, 55, 22 and 61. The percentage classified as "conservative,'' survey by survey: 28, 17, 18, 19, 17, 21, 12, 17, 5 and 9. Voting patterns and findings on specific issues (for instance, regarding abortion, gun control or taxes) have consistently mirrored these general attitudes.
Surveys since have shown no overall change in this dynamic. A 1996 survey of 1,037 reporters at 61 newspapers found 61 percent self-identified as "Democrat or liberal" or "lean to Democrat or liberal," vs. only 15 percent Republican or leaning Republican. A 2001 survey of 301 "media professionals" by Princeton Survey Research Associates found 25 percent self-identified as "liberal," 59 percent as "moderate," and only 6 percent as "conservative."

By the way, I could take this list and compare many of the things GEORGE WASHINGTON did with the Constitution (there is no "cabinet" in there, for example) and find them questionable. But Jefferson doesn't hold a candle to GW in my book. Washington, that is.
"I... place economy among the first and most important of republican virtues, and public debt as the greatest of the dangers to be feared."
Jefferson speaks from the dead to the brain dead: [19] I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere. Most codes extend their definitions of treason to acts not really against one's country. They do not distinguish between acts against the government, and acts against the oppressions of the government. The latter are virtues, yet have furnished more victims to the executioner than the former, because real treasons are rare; oppressions frequent. The unsuccessful strugglers against tyranny have been the chief martyrs of treason laws in all countries."
Mr. Jefferson, please wake the dead: "Theconstitutions of most of our States assert that all power is inherent in the people; that... it is their right and duty to be at all times armed." [23]
The difference between Mr.Bush and his Democratic opponent is not a difference in kind, but one of degree. Mr.Bush looks to the right for support, speaks to the center and governs increasingly to the left.

Not only that, but Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Lincoln, Reagan and any president worth their salt would not for one second stand by and offer up our borders, sovereignty, jobs, and heritage for the sake of political convenience.
Need I name names?
Please do, of with both parties to show the differences between them!
That was twenty years and twenty illegal migrants ago.
"No attempt to control the border" can be equally shared by each succeeding President since Reagan.
Including George Bush.
Because he's not the first, does this mean we should continue to allow the destruction of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights until the United Nations steps in for the final coup de grais?
I will vote 3rd Party because I am scared for America. I don't want another shooting civil war but I will not shrink from the possibility because it is better than losing everything. If we can fight and die in other countries for their freedoms, we MUST be willing to do the same for ourselves!
That, sir just doesn't sound right.
Please define the "type" of Republican partisanship that George Bush is demonstrating in "this amnesty matter".
Ears wide open.
Closing the border with Mexico would'nt hurt any either.
One of the most effective things you can do is to sign up for email action alerts with the Liberty Committee. We are a constitutionalist group. We start every fight in Congress with over 20 congressmen including Paul, Tancredo, Hostettler and more. We don't beg for money and we don't sell your name. It's about the cheapest and most effective way to advocate for constitutionalism and the conservative agenda.
Thanks for posting that link and those three who are attempting to restore Constitutional sanity. It's a shame the RNC refues to follow Paul, Tancredo, Hostettler .
Bush, Kerry, Dean or whomever will surely continue down the road we are going.....destruction by suicide. Just maybe in four years the people will have had enough and be willing to try the U.S. Constitution Party as a last resort.
It would be nice if Ron Paul and/or Keyes would step up in 2008 as candidate for the U.S. Constitution Party but we'll see what happens. I'm sure whoever steps up with adequate backing will be a serious contender.
I can't just sit back and continue voting republican party. 35 years of trying to keep the Democrats out of the White House hasn't done a damn thing for America!
Trying to change a Congressman who has been reelected 5 times isn't going to work either, he's too comfortable and too well paid not to follow party lines. Thinking for himself is beyond what he is capable of, as we have seen for too long.
