As usual, another liberal judge is legislating from the bench. The people of Oklahoma overwhelmingly passed Question 755 this past November, which is a State Constitutional Amendment that prohibits the courts from using international law or Sharia law in their decisions. The amendment reads as follows:
"This measure amends the State Constitution. It changes a section that deals with the courts of this state. It would amend Article 7, Section 1. It makes courts rely on federal and state law when deciding cases. It forbids courts from considering or using international law. It forbids courts from considering or using Sharia Law.
International law is also known as the law of nations. It deals with the conduct of international organizations and independent nations, such as countries, states and tribes. It deals with their relationship with each other. It also deals with some of their relationships with persons.
The law of nations is formed by the general assent of civilized nations. Sources of international law also include international agreements, as well as treaties.
Sharia Law is Islamic law. It is based on two principal sources, the Koran and the teaching of Mohammed."
There is a great difference between Sharia, Catholic Canon Law, Hebrew Law and Hammurabi's Code. The Catholic and Judaic Laws are specific and written laws involving their own religious courts, judges and penalties. These laws also recognize the authority of a nation's court upon all people within that nation. Sharia is based upon the writings in the Qu'uran and the teachings of the prophet Mohammed, and subject to extremely broad interpretations. Countries under Sharia Law enforce it upon all people of that country irregardless of their religious affiliations. International law is loosely interpreted to include the laws of any other nation, treaties, pacts and agreements between various nations and/or peoples. Courts in the United States refer purely religious law question to among the specific religion involved (i.e. - Catholic or Hasidim). They by Constitution mandate, cite only Federal, State or Local enacted laws and defer religious cases back to the involved religious court.
For example, a divorce may be granted in an American Civil Court to a spouse and legally recognized. The spouse is therefore eligible to remarry under U.S. law. However, under the spouse's specific religion, the divorce may or may not be religiously recognized or granted. The spouse may not be able to remarry within there original religion, but they are eligible to remarry under another accepting religion and/or an American court/justice of the peace. This is true "Separation of Church and State".
Under Sharia Law, the religion IS the state, there is no separation of one from the other. The interpretation of Sharia Law is as vast and varied as the political ideologue of the ultra conservative as compared to that of the progressive liberal. There are no written unified codes and penalties, structured courts or specified procedures to elect/select judges under Sharia. One Iman will declare Jihad is an inner personal journey of peace and redemption. A different Iman will declare Jihad is a bomb laden vest, promise of Heaven with 20 virgins and the death of any Non-Muslims. Each will claim they are enforcing true Sharia.
Citing international law is equally confusing when one judge may rely on the laws of Spain in a case and a differing judge may cite the laws of Cuba to overturn the previous judges decision. Now, if this doesn't convince you that U.S. District Court Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange made a really bad decision with her injunction, consider, she completely ignores Article VI, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution, the "Supreme Law of the Land" clause. Muneer Anwad and the Council on Islamic-American Relations (CAIR) in their petition cite the First Amendment, "Prohibiting the free exercise" of religion clause. The logic, is that the amendment creates the impression that Islam is a religion that is a threat to the country.
I say, "What?" No where does the amendment prohibit the free exercise of Islam. It does prohibit the enforcement of Islamic Sharia law within the American court system and upon ordinary citizen of non-Islamic faith. Question 755 re-enforces Article VI of the Constitution. It narrowly specifies Sharia Laws and international laws, which progressives have slowly and insidiously been attempting to use to co-opt the American legal system. It is tacit that freedom of religion exists as long as the exercise of that religion does not cause harm or undue hardship to others. Can that be said of all forms of Sharia Law?

Libturd Attacks Tea Party
An anonymous person emailed me several days ago, after my editorial appeared in the Gazette. They wrote: “I will be attending the Tea Party Rally on Sept. 12. I will be looking to see if the Tea Party representatives and speakers will be speaking to solutions to our nations problems and not be apart of the problem. I will not be looking for gripes, complaints, anti-Obama or racial placards.”
My response to QUEBILL@aol.com was: “You are most welcome to join us, however we will not restrict FREE speech. It is not the responsibility of those who are part of the Tea Party movement to create "solutions". It is our responsibility to make our voices heard to elected officials and candidates so they may form solutions. It is our responsibility to seek out individuals who can lead us out of the quagmire both parties lead us into and support them in their efforts.
We do not tolerate racism and will continue to battle it as we did throughout the civil rights movement, which without us would have been even longer in occurring.
It it odd you did not sign your name!
Ann Ubelis
Beaufort Tea Party co-founder”
In other words, the type of people who populate the Tea Party movement are the same foot soldiers who fought the Revolutionary War, who supported the Abolitionist movement of the Civil War And who stood shoulder to shoulder throughout the Civil Rights era fighting for equality. Ordinary American Patriots fighting extra-ordinary battles, while being publicly derided and mis-represented.
We seek out capable and honest people who support the foundation of this nation, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. It is our duty and responsibility to find leaders with wisdom, courage and common sense to formulate solutions and implement them. We seek out organizations that espouse the Tea Party principles to help form solutions and support these leaders, such as the CATO Institute and the Heritage Foundation.
Look around you and what do you see? The average Joe. The everyday American. A sleeping giant that was poked into action by irresponsible actions of our government.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. —
That to secure these rights, Gov’ts are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,”
Our fore fathers knew the extent and limits of our tolerance & when pushed to a certain point, “We The People” would be moved to action. They knew that those of us that have the ability to take action, have the absolute responsibility to act.”
It was President Andrew Jackson who said, “One man with courage makes a majority” Well, We are the Majority and Silent No Longer!
Now, QUEBILL@aol.com, before I introduce our guest speakers, I’ll leave you with one final thought. It was the Renaissance Author Dante who said, “the hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who, in a time of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.”
You cannot silence us with your disinformation and veiled threats. We will be Silent No Longer!

Open Invite To All Politicians!
Open Letter To All Politicians
This is an open invitation to all elected officials, as well as current and past candidates to attend the 1st Anniversary 9/12 Rally by the Beaufort Tea Party, this Sunday at 1pm at the Waterfront Park. We always encourage you to attend our rallies! In our first rally last year on July 4th, we made the error of allowing politicians to speak and did not give the people a voice. Since then, in the subsequent rallies, we remedied that error and only allow those who speak not be politicians. We have been pleasantly surprised at the words and wisdom of the voters who spoke.
We whole heartily welcome you to attend and listen to what "We The People" have to say. As a “grass-roots” movement, that has united a silent majority into a political force that is slowly changing the face of politics and policy, we encourage you to listen. Feel free to press the flesh and kiss the babies.
Our members do not care what political party you are with. If you think this is only directed to Conservatives or Republicans, think again! The invitation is open to all politicians. We would like to commend some of those who have attended all of our events, stood in the crowd, listening and answering, one on one: Mayor Billy Keyserling, City Councilwoman Donnie Beer, County Councilman Paul Sommerville, and State Representative Shannon Erickson. Thank you, we look forward to seeing you this Sunday! For more information: http://BeaufortTeaParty.webs.com

More Americans Believe Obama is Muslim & Socialist!
What Americans have not seen, nor has been reported, catering to a specific religion’s legal tenets did not start with just the Muslim Religion. As a police officer in NYPD in the Williamsburg and East New York areas of Brooklyn, I witnesses Hasidim Courts taking precedent over our legal system in the 1980′s and 1990′s.
This, I feel had opened the door for Sharia Law gaining a foothold in America. The difference between the two is that Hasdic Laws only affected those of the Jewish Hasidim Orthodox religion. Radical Islam wants Sharia Law to apply to all Americans.
Progressive Judges in Blue States continually ignore the Constitutional Federal and State laws and bend to the creeping Sharia into our legal system and noted in recent news items. Blend into that the knowledge that President Obama was taught in an Islamic School in Indonesia the Islamic faith and Sharia Law. Take into consideration that every time he travels to a Muslim country, he does not bring his wife, which under that faith is prohibited. Remember President Obama bowing to the Saudi King, the defacto leader of the Islamic faithful in that country? Or shall we mention the canceling of the "National Prayer Service Breakfast". but the allowance of the Muslim Prayer Day in the Washington Mall?
His appearances and performance in visiting Mosques and Islamic audiences should be looked at carefully. To put the proverbial “fork” into the matter, take into consideration his flimsy statements pertaining to the planned “Ground Zero” mosque. Would he not have served the American people better if he had stated in his speech, “That although Iman Rauf has the Constitutional right to build his mosque on the congregations property, we ask that he considers the moral right he and his congregation have to honor the American sacred ground of the tragedy of the 9/11 terror attacks, the close to 3000 victims, their family and the voice of the American people. We urge the Iman to enter into talks with the City and State of New York to find an alternative site for the wonderful multi-cultural center.”
The building that is to be the new mosque has never been searched for victims of the 9/11 attacks and was the site where the plan’s landing gear crashed through. It is part of Ground Zero and no one knows how many unclaimed remains are yet to be found inside.
To add to the Muslim leanings of this administration, we must call into consideration the questionable background and associations of Iman Rauf. Several watchdog groups have uncovered areas that warrant further investigation. These watchdog groups urged caution when the State Department hired Iman Rauf to make a 5 Mid-East nation tour. Rauf refuses to denounce Hamas and Hezbollah.
Although President Obama attended Reverend Wrights radical church, he has yet shown where he was Baptized as a Christian.
As for his Socialist beliefs? One only has to read his two books, listen to his numerous lectures and pre-Presidential election speeches. Need I remind anyone of the “Joe the Plumber” encounter of “spreading the wealth”? Add into the pot the numerous appointments to his cabinet, federal agencies and the Supreme Court? Can we say “Van Jones”?
During the Presidential Democratic Primary race between Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama, a certain talk show radio host mounted the “Stop Hillary Train”. At that time, I repeatedly screamed at the radio and wrote to this host’s show, that he didn’t know just what type of Pandora’s Box he was opening. We knew the lesser devil we would get, should Hillary get elected, we then were only to begin to learning the of the potential devil we now have ended up with as President.

WTF?! White House Plays While Americans Hold Their Breath!
Close to two months has passed since the Gulf Oil Spill and the Obama Administration has still taken only token action is this crisis. So just what have they been doing? Vacationing, shopping and golfing in Chicago. Filming a phony July 4th celebration. Hosting a mega concert, topped by Paul McCarthy singing "Michelle". Having a water fight on the lawn of the White House. Playing Beer Pong, a drunken beer game and completely missing the sobering disaster of the oil spill.
Now, our beer drinking Commander-In-Chief, rather than placing a call to the CEO of BP, calls the British Prime Minister and places a Beer - Lager bet over the US - Brit Soccer game. When all else fails and the heat is on, throw a Beer Summit, have a drunken Beer Drinking Game or make a Beer Bet! Maybe when shouldn't question President Obama's sanity, rather his sobriety!

Expel Members Of House Who Invoke The "Slaughter Solution"
In order to do this, Speaker Pelosi would present to the House the "corrections" for approval of the Senate bill. Therefore, the House will not vote on the actual Senate Bill, but only on the pages presented as corrections and Ms. Pelosi will present the full Senate bill with the House corrections for President Obama's signature.
Does anyone see a problem here? I do, this is in direct violation of the Constitution, which Speaker Pelosi and Representative Slaughter swore to uphold. Article 1, Section 7, Clause 2 requires both houses of Congress to vote on the bill. If there are amendments or changes, the bill is to go to a committee made up of selected members of the Senate and House to reconcile the differences, before going to the President for signature.
I ask you, how can you vote only "corrections", when you haven't even voted on the actual bill? Any Member of the House who agrees to and is complicit in this scheme should be expelled from Congress for Violation of Oath of Office and immediately arrested. In an article on the "Friends of the Article V Convention" web site titled "Violation of Oath of Office and Walker vs Members of Congress" they explain:
"Federal law regulating oath of office by government officials is divided into four parts along with an executive order which further defines the law for purposes of enforcement. 5 U.S.C. 3331, provides the text of the actual oath of office members of Congress are required to take before assuming office. 5 U.S.C. 3333 requires members of Congress sign an affidavit that they have taken the oath of office required by 5 U.S.C. 3331 and have not or will not violate that oath of office during their tenure of office as defined by the third part of the law, 5 U.S.C. 7311 which explicitly makes it a federal criminal offense (and a violation of oath of office) for anyone employed in the United States Government (including members of Congress) to “advocate the overthrow of our constitutional form of government”. The fourth federal law, 18 U.S.C. 1918 provides penalties for violation of oath office described in 5 U.S.C. 7311 which include: (1) removal from office and; (2) confinement or a fine."
Although, I cite the Article V site for the purpose of explaining the law in this blog post, I do not support a Constitutional Convention. I am advocating the upholding of our Constitution and enforcement of this nations laws, equally among all citizens, no matter what office they hold. Should President Obama agree to sign into law the Health Care bill if passed under the Slaughter Solution, he should be impeached and also arrested for Violation of Oath of Office.
When we hold the Members of Congress and The Office of the President to the same standards of the average citizen, we just may have a more honest and open republic!

Why HR 3200 and SEIU Should Scare You
Why SEIU & HR 3200
Should
Scare You
Should
Scare You
Few people have fully read the House Bill HR 3200 and even fewer understand it. Inside the bill are lots of goodies aimed at pandering to special interest including the Service Employees International Union, SEIU and ACORN. On the SEIU website they describe themselves:
“... the fastest-growing union in North America. Focused on uniting workers in three sectors to improve their lives and the services they provide, SEIU is: The largest healthcare union, with more than 1.1 million members in the field, including nurses, LPNs, doctors, lab technicians, nursing home workers, and home care workers. The largest property services union, with 225,000 members in the building cleaning and security industries, including janitors, security officers, superintendents, maintenance workers, window cleaners, and doormen and women. The second largest public services union, with more than 1 million local and state government workers, public school employees, bus drivers, and child care providers” Totaling over 2.325 million members.
SEIU has been picketing and confronting Town Hall meetings and anti-Health Care rallies, with the intent of forcing HR 3200 into passage. With the passage of HR 3200 the rank and file of SEIU will more than triple overnight and continue to expand as all facets of the bill are implemented. Written into the bill on page 897 is Section 2231 titled “Public Health Workforce”, which establishes the “Public Health Workforce Corps” and is “for the purpose of ensuring an adequate supply of public health professionals..... shall consist of such officers of the Regular and Reserve Corps ... and such civilian employees...”
In one swell swoop SEIU will gain members from a para-military “Public Health Workforce Corps”, from doctors and nurses to the janitor working in private and public medical facilities, health insurance providers and any educational facility. HR 3200 in Sections 2511 and 399Z-1 establishes a school-based “health” clinics. These clinics will provide educational services as well as medical, mental health and dental services during and after school hours. In essence schools will also become 24 hour community health clinics, staffed by SEIU members.
In the ultimate of government intrusion, Section 2521 establishes the “National Medical Device Registry” which will be the central collector of any “implantable” devices. Anything implanted such as birth control devices, cosmetic augmentations, joint replacements, pace makers, hernia patches and far beyond will be in this registry. Included in the registry is the serial number of the implant and the patients personal identification and financial data.
SEIU is not the only big beneficiary of HR3200, ACORN and it’s associated arms have their fingers in the bill. Community based organizations were awarded with monitoring, administrating and evaluating dozens of sections in the bill. The most astounding area is the use of community based organizations is Section 1904, titled “Home Visitation Program” wherein “well-trained staff” will come to your home to “provide parents with age-appropriate knowledge of development in cognitive, language, social, emotional, and motor domains ... knowledge of realistic expectations of age-appropriate child behaviors ... skills to interact with their child...”. Essentially, they will moniter and instruct you on how to raise and interact with your child. For other home visits by community based organizations, HR 3200 in Section 1302 establishes the “Community-Based Home Medical Services” which will provide home based medical and educational services to you. Initially it is set up for rural areas and has provisions to be expanded as the CHMS determines is needed. The CHMS will provide medical services, monitor your progress, educate you on healthy behavior (i.e. - diet, exercise, personal habits) and determine your compliance with their recommendations.
Section 1193, the “GAO Evaluation Of Data Collection Process For Quality Measurement” sets the standard for your medical treatment. This is carried into Section 1142, where “Quality” is based upon gender, age, race and place of residence. Uniting these two areas of HR 3200 is Section 1143, “Multi-Stakeholder Pre-Rulemaking Input”. The MPI will provide “provide recommendations on the selection of individual or composite quality measures...” meaning they will determine the level of your care. It will comprise “a voluntary collaborative of organizations representing persons interested in or affected by the use of such quality measure...” such as medical personnel and community based organization, like ACORN.
Beyond the liberal use of ACORN type organizations HR 3200 will restrict and regulate other programs that target the neediest among us, such as Special-needs persons. Section 1177 is titled “Extension Of Authority Of Special Needs Plans To Restrict Enrollment” is an extension of the America’s Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009. Through various groups, including ACORN, this is designed to “through a contract with an independent health services evaluation organization, for an analysis of the plans described in paragraph (1) with regard to the impact of such plans on cost, quality of care, patient satisfaction..” Services to Special-Needs will be “restricted” or rationed.
HR 3200 is only one of three Health Care Plans proposed in the House of Representatives. In the Senate there are two bills currently under consideration. The Kennedy Health Care Act has 615 pages and an additional 300 pages, not yet released. Several Republican Senators have proposals in committee, including Senator Tom Rice (GA) and Senator Jim DeMint (SC). The Health Care debate is heating up and when the fight is over, there most likely be many bruised and battered members of congress licking their wounds and limping home.
