Bill Of Rights Is No More <\/a><\/h1>\n

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm<\/span><\/p>\n

by Chuck Baldwin<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"While most Americans were celebrating the holidays, President Barack Obama quietly signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), otherwise known as the \u201cIndefinite Detention Act,\u201d into law. Obama had initially said he would veto the bill which contains the draconian language authorizing the US military to seize and incarcerate US citizens without warrant, due process, trial, etc. Of course, Obama quickly changed his mind after the bill passed both houses of Congress.<\/p>\n

\"\"When signing the NDAA into law, Obama issued a signing statement that in essence said, \u201cI have the power to detain Americans\u2026 but I won\u2019t.\u201d See this report:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/6pqx4bg<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"Americans should realize that, coupled with the Patriot Act, the NDAA, for all intents and purposes, completely nullifies a good portion of the Bill of Rights, turns the United States into a war zone, and places US citizens under military rule. And what is even more astonishing is the manner in which the national press corps, and even the so-called \u201cconservative\u201d talking heads, have either completely ignored it, or have actually defended it. The likes of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, et al., should be ashamed of themselves!<\/p>\n

At this juncture, I want to highly encourage my readers to review two columns written by my constitutional attorney son, Tim Baldwin. He has written two masterful columns explaining the draconian provisions of the NDAA and responding to those irresponsible journalists who fail to understand and warn the American people regarding the horrific implications of the NDAA.<\/p>\n

This is Tim\u2019s column explaining the NDAA:<\/p>\n

And this is Tim\u2019s column, which rebukes journalists who choose to stick their heads in the sand regarding the NDAA:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/7j7reom<\/a><\/p>\n

Mike Adams at NaturalNews.com has also written a great piece regarding the seriousness of the NDAA. He begins his report saying, \u201cOne of the most extraordinary documents in human history\u2013the Bill of Rights\u2013has come to an end under President Barack Obama. Derived from sacred principles of natural law, the Bill of Rights has come to a sudden and catastrophic end with the President\u2019s signing of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a law that grants the U.S. military the \u2018legal\u2019 right to conduct secret kidnappings of U.S. citizens, followed by indefinite detention, interrogation, torture and even murder. This is all conducted completely outside the protection of law, with no jury, no trial, no legal representation and not even any requirement that the government produce evidence against the accused. It is a system of outright government tyranny against the American people, and it effectively nullifies the Bill of Rights.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cIn what will be remembered as the most traitorous executive signing ever committed against the American people, President Obama signed the bill on New Year\u2019s Eve, a time when most Americans were engaged in the consumption of alcohol. It seems appropriate, of course, since no intelligent American could accept the tyranny of this bill if they were sober.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the law that will cement Obama\u2019s legacy in the history books as the traitor who nullified the Bill of Rights and paved America\u2019s pathway down a road of tyranny that will make Nazi Germany\u2019s war crimes look like child\u2019s play. If Bush had signed a law like this, liberals would have been screaming \u2018impeachment!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Adams is absolutely right! Liberals are as bad as conservatives when it comes to overlooking traitorous behavior when it is perpetrated by one of their own.<\/p>\n

Adams goes on to say, \u201cEven while committing an act of pure treason in signing the bill, the unindicted criminal President Obama issued a signing statement that reads, in part, \u2018Moving forward, my administration will interpret and implement the provisions described below in a manner that best preserves the flexibility on which our safety depends and upholds the values on which this country was founded\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone who reads between the lines here realizes the \u2018the flexibility on which our safety depends\u2019 means they can interpret the law in any way they want if there is a sufficient amount of fear being created through false flag terror attacks. Astute readers will also notice that Obama\u2019s signing statement has no legal binding whatsoever and only refers to Obama\u2019s momentary intentions on how he \u2018wishes\u2019 to interpret the law. It does not place any limits whatsoever on how a future President might use the law as written.\u201d<\/p>\n

See Adams report at:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/034537_NDAA_Bill_of_Rights_Obama.html<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"Signed into law by President George W. Bush, the Patriot Act and Military Commissions Act effectively eviscerated the Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution. Now, the NDAA of 2012, signed into law by President Barack Obama, has effectively eviscerated the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth amendments to the US Constitution. Note that it has not mattered one whit whether it was a Republican or Democrat President or Congress in power at the time. Both parties in Washington, D.C., have superintended over the deliberate and unabashed dismantlement of the Bill of Rights. And, of course, we must all realize that for all intents and purposes\u2013and with very few exceptions\u2013both parties in Washington, D.C., have ignored the Tenth Amendment to the US Constitution for decades.<\/p>\n

\"\"We should also add that the First Amendment was pretty much expunged in 1962 and 1963 when the US Supreme Court outlawed the public acknowledgment of God. And the Second Amendment suffered a major setback with the passage of the Nazi-like Gun Control Act of 1968. And, of course, the infamous Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision also effectively annihilated the right to life clause of the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution.<\/p>\n

Therefore, it doesn\u2019t take a rocket scientist to figure out that, over the past several decades, the US Congress, the US Supreme Court, and the US Presidency have collaborated together to strip the American people of the protections and safeguards of their liberties contained in what must be recognized\u2013along with the Declaration of Independence\u2013as the Holy Grail of liberty: the Bill of Rights.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"So, how long will it be before the President of the United States will actually act upon the power that has been granted him under the Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, and the NDAA of 2012? How long will it be before the US military is ordered to turn their guns on the American citizenry? How long will it be before American citizens begin disappearing in much the same way that the people in Stalin\u2019s Russia, Hitler\u2019s Germany, and Mao\u2019s China disappeared? What will be the \u201cnational emergency\u201d that triggers the implementation of these Hitlerian laws? Another 9-11-style attack maybe? Who knows? One thing is certain: these laws are not painstakingly written, debated, and passed into law for the fun of it! These laws are on the books for a reason: the federal government fully intends to implement these laws at some point! You can count on that!<\/p>\n

And once more I need to remind readers that the only Presidential candidate that is sounding the alarm regarding this persistent and deliberate erosion of our liberties is Congressman Ron Paul.<\/p>\n

I am reminded of the sagacious words of America\u2019s most celebrated jurist Daniel Webster. He said, \u201cGod grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it.\u201d So, I guess it\u2019s time to start asking the question: Just who is left within these States United that truly love liberty and are willing to guard and defend it? Because one thing is certain: the vast majority of the miscreants in Washington, D.C., sure aren\u2019t going to do it.<\/p>\n
