#1. Fire the hold-overs. This includes the FAA's Mineta, and the CIA Dir.

#3. Reverse ALL remaining unreversed Clinton Executive Orders.
#4. Prosecute to the MAX vote fraud by the ballot-stuffers in Florida, Cleveland, Albuquerque, Philadelphia, Chicago,and so on.
#5. Prosecute Jesse Jackson for RICO violations, and defrauding the U.S. Government and public...and levy the millions of back taxes bilked from U.S. Corporations by his phony charity operations .
#6. [oops, I could keep going, but we'll let some others have some fun ]

With unlimited powers?

Item #1 on the agenda would be to toss Clintoon and his Bride from Hell into the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

Bush should inform the Governors that if any Governor wishes to enforce his state's pre-1973 laws against abortion, prosecuting abortionists for homicide and other felonies, or if any state legislature passes new laws against abortion, and any Governor chooses to enforce those, the executive branch of the federal government will not lift a finger to stop them.

[AdamSelene235]

Constitutional Amendment prohibiting income taxes, capital gains taxes,corporate taxes, and any cumulative fiscal burden of government greater than 10% of the GDP.

Amendment prohibiting total government debt from exceeding 50% of annual tax revenues.

Termination of Social Security. Debts to be paid off by selling National assets such as the BLM land, the Post Office buildings, etc.

BATF sized agency dedicated to enforcement of "Deprivation of Rights under Color of Law". BATF style tactics are a ok here.

Tax day is election day. Not spaced 6 months apart.

[Jim Robinson]

Priority number one in my book is to eliminate the Constitution hating, Liberty hating, Freedom hating, American hating, God hating marxist/leftist/socialist/liberal pig from their posts of power and influence in America. Seeing as how the home and breeding grounds for the American hating marxist/leftist/socialist/liberal pig is the criminal enterprise otherwise known as the Democrat Party, it only makes sense to eliminate as many Democrats from government as possible. This means voting them out of Congress, out of our state legislatures, out of our State Houses, out of our local governments and out of any position of power or influence. America is infested and overrun with these socialism loving vermin. Kick them off their government perches and off their judgeships and off the school boards and off any post where they have influence over politics or society. Once we've driven a stake through the heart of the marxist/leftist/socialist/liberal democrat pig, then we can start on priority number two. Kicking out the worst of them out of the other party. IMHO, of course.

1. Tell Hinckley that the Clintons have been forcing Jodie Foster to do disgusting and unnatural things.

2. Release Hinckley from St. Elizabeths Hospital.

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

I always thought that one of the most dangerous aspects of clintonism was the total corruption of the justice department. The first act of that corrupt administration was to fire all the US attorneys. Replacing the director of the FBI was soon to follow, and we all know what a disaster El Reno was and her underling/overling Eric Holder. This corruption continued right on up to the last day of the 8 year nightmare, as there was justice department involvement in the whole pardon scandal.

When Bush got in, I thought that the first order of business was to purge all the clintonistas from the DOJ, no matter how many layers of bureaucracy they are buried under or within. I guess I still believe that. Sometimes I wonder if some of the reorg that is going on in Washington now (shifting depts from existing structure to the dept of homeland security) is meant to provide cover for purging of clintonistas.

I am not going to say that clintonism didn't affect other parts of the government, i.e. judiciary, Dept. of State, DOD, etc. etc. , but my personal bias has always been to kill all the snakes in the DOJ.

[Pagey]

First,off the cuff: 1.)I would access every "Pentagon Employees Public Voting Record" for the last 20 years and fire every Leftist blabbermouth.Don Rumsfeld would really appreciate that action.I have to think about the rest of this tonight,and come back later.

[dyed_in_the_wool]

1. Flat tax
2. No payroll withholding.
3. See elsewhere about tax day and election day being the same day. Preferably, make the polling booth and the tax collection location the same place. No money, no vote.
4. Eliminate any law that discriminates based on race, gender or other artificial segregation.
5. Allow businesses that generate less than $5 million in revenue to operate tax free for up to 5 years to get established.
6. End the WOD. Biggest boondoggle since Social(ist) Security.
7. No tax money for anything other than a.)defense and b.)that's it. That's all congress was mandated to raise money for.
8. Enforce personal responsibility. If you do the crime, you do the time. This means you Bubba.

[Political Junkie Too]

Not wanting to abuse unlimited powers, I'd simply repeal the 17th amendment and let the government work the way it was supposed to.

I believe that the root of all the problems is the Senate. The Senate has been corrupted. Some may argue that the House has, too, but the House is up for re-election every two years and their constituents are small enough in size and there are enough of them to dilute the power that Representatives could achieve.

The Senate, however, has six year terms, and are elected by entire states. The Senate was supposed to be the States' chamber in the federal legislature, which is why they were originally appointed by state legislatures. When the 17th amendment made Senators popularly elected instead of appointed, that broke the tie between states and the federal government. Senators are now no more than Super-Representatives. Once elected, Senators abandon their ties to the states and act like national politicians, often taking the bulk of their funding from organizations outside their own states.

If Senators were appointed by their home state legislatures, don't you think they'd be more apt to appease their state legislatures in order to be sent back by them in six years? Do you think the NY state legislature would have sent Hillary! to the Senate simply because she waltzed into the state and demanded the seat?

If you don't like your appointed Senator, then you (the People -- the forgotten entity in the Constitution) can force your state legislature to appoint someone else under threat of you not voting for them next time.

That's the way it was supposed to work: The People --> The States --> The Federal Government. The people vote for state officials, the state officials appoint federal Senators, the people vote for federal representatives, the federal representatives and federal senators legislate. The 17th amendment took the states out of the equation and essentially made Senators rogue politicians accountable to no one.

[JoeSixPack1]

Eliminate all federal agencies whose priority is NOT national security.

Return to states their full governing power.

Statewide ballot initives do not require federal approval.

Eliminate dual citizenship.

Remove the dedication plaque at WPB VA Hospital with bubba's name engarved on it.

And while we're at it, Cure Alzheimers.

[sackofcatfood]

Withdraw from the UN. Between 5 and 15% flat tax.* Tax hikes require a 2/3 majority and must be renewed every two years. States that don't have a [insert reasonable percentage] of firearms holders are penalized through the withholding of federal funding. Much of the police force rendered unneccessary by the previous action would be converted into truancy officers/tutors who would check up on homeschoolers. There would be no stated funded education. Homeschoolers who passed annual exams would be compeletely immune. (Because otherwise a lot of kids would be playing videogames all day every day).

Abortion officially classified as murder. Most state social programs cancelled--replaced with Salvation Army, etc. Stiffer penalties for violating the law. Rapists/pedofiles automatically imprisoned for life with eligibility of parole only if they agree to have their "organ's of offense" removed.



*I also like the idea of supporting the government entirely based on charity.

[Ohioan]

1. Suspend the franchise from anyone who receives unearned funds from the Government as an entitlement.

2. An immediate moratorium on immigration, except for people with one-of-a-kind technological abilities; followed by a thorough and objective study of the influence of ethnicity on culture, and the relationship of traditional American culture to certain ethnic traditions. (We have to stop this generalized "winging it," that has characterized our policy since 1965.)

3. Restore the Chivalric ideal to the U.S. Military. That means no more women--however qualified--in potential combat situations.

4. Limit the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts to those cases provided for in the Constitution, and those where there is a legitimate Federal reason for involvement--as in diversity of citizenship cases, and cases involving interaction between the citizen and a Federal Department.

5. Overhaul the tax system to eliminate all redistribution of wealth aspects; and all the sops to special interests that force the incredibly complex forms now required. As soon as the kinks can be worked out, go to a Flat Tax.

6. Take every public opportunity to celebrate the heritage of the Founding Fathers, and teach the public of all ages about the incredible growth won without Governmental tampering, by the citizenry from 1789, when Washington took the oath of office, until the middle of the 19th Century. (It really was phenomenal!)

7. Require all State Department employees to demonstrate an understanding of the Washington/Jefferson foreign policy, and a willingness to apply the underlying concepts (which were never isolationist) to the present World situation. (Of course, those who want to build a World Government, need find other jobs.)

8. Repeal all special interest laws, wherein the Government seeks to win the support of any group by intruding on the traditional liberties of the general public.

9. Adopt the Swiss system, as to private arms and personal responsibility, even as George Washington advocated from 1783 on.

Well, that would get us started.

I'd round up as many liberals as I could and send them to Mugabeville.

[Mr. Jeeves]

End tax withholding instantly. It is the root of all evil. Make the public realize just how much they are really paying.

A flat tax and abolition of income taxation would quickly follow.

[weikel]

Okay weikel has been named supreme Emperor and overlord of the united states. My 1st act would be to burn all IRS records, computers, etc and fire the IRS agents. All revenue will henceforth come from a lottery, other legalized gambling, and if neccasary a small NRST.

In a major war additional taxes might be levied for the duration but thats it. All entitlement programs would then be ended. The military would be secretly ordered to shift from planning war against Iraq to war against Saudi Arabia. Gun control except for NBC weapons would be abolished( except in Imperial city, which will not be Washington DC, revolt I don't fear but assasination I do).

Knowingly false accusations will become a capital crime( along with lots of other stuff the Empire will have fewer laws and harsher punishments generally like the death penalty for car thieves). Of course the death penalty is commutted to a lifetime of exile to the Aleutian islands if there is a question of fact. Most public land will be sold off at auction to the highest bidder. Thats all the Emperor can think of now but he'll be back later.

How about ridding the country of: statism, authoritarianism, collectivism, socialism, fascism et al regardless of the party affiliation of the offender?

2) Make firearm training mandatory if one wants to vote.

3) Repeal ALL Federal gun laws.

4) Repeal ALL Federal tax laws.

5) Open the closet door for all homosexuals.

6) Deport illegal aliens. Close the door on immigration until current residents understand that if you are a hyphenated American or do not speak English that you too will be deported. All forms of every kind, including ballots, will be in English only.

7) Abolish every Federal agency that was not included in the original Constitution, unless it provides for additional national defense.

8) End every entitlement program that attempts to redistribute wealth.

9) Explain to the rest of the world that we indeed are first and don’t care what they think.

10) Increase the penalty for perjury to life in prison and then try Clinton and his cronies for every crime that they have committed.

11) Charge Louis Farhakan with treason.

12) Try Jesse Jackson under the RICO statues.

I guess we can all dream.

Stay safe; stay armed; and smoke 'em if you got 'em.
