A Prayer for America by Patrick H. Bellringer

From: Four Winds 10


"O God Aton of Light, Creator of the human races, King of Wisdom and the One Source of all, we rejoice that your Spirit lives within us.
We forgive ourselves and our fellow men for our complacency in America in allowing this great nation to be over-run with evil. We ask your Spirit within us to forgive us. Many times we have done nothing, while Satan's workers in their attempt to rule the world have taken away the unalienable freedoms you gave to us.
We ask now for the Hosts of Heaven to come and stand against the evil forces. We ask that your Spirit awaken our Earth Shan people to Truth, and that they shall pray for this nation. We ask that all people shall begin right-living according to the Laws of God and Creation. May each individual be empowered to make a strong stand against the "lies" and darkness.
By working with the creative Power of God Aton within us, we believe that America can once again  be a shining Light of Truth to all the world. We believe that this nation can be a people of right-living. We believe that this has already begun.
We order now through our God Spirit that all evil forces on Earth Shan be removed and cease to exist forever in Esu (Jesus) Immanuel Sananda's name---that they not hinder any longer our battle for freedom and Truth. We give the Lighted Realms permission to assist us in making this so.
We ask for your protection as we confront evil. We ask for your courage and wisdom as we act, and we ask for your power to accomplish our mission.
May our original Constitution and our Bill of Rights be so re-established in the Republic of the United States of America.  May the Laws of God and the Creation be established as the Supreme Law of this land.   May we again become "one nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all."  We walk in faith, believing that this shall be done.
Fill this land and our world with your Spirit of Love, and Hope, and Peace, and Joy. This is our prayer to our God-Spirit within us, to God Aton of Light. We pray this in the name of Esu (Jesus) Immanuel    Sananda---and in Heaven's sequence. Not our will, O God, but in all things let Your Will be done. So Be It!"

The Legend of Joe Briggs (Syndicated from Nice Old Spice)

Joe Briggs walked out of the polling place. It was clear he wouldn’t be gone long from the look of him. He was positively fuming; maybe even a little drunk. The volunteer had told him in no uncertain terms his identification was out of date and unusable. When he asked how much a new ID would be the worker had told him $40-50 easy. Joe mumbled something about poll tax but the volunteer was adamant.

 State orders had come down with strict requirements to prevent fraud. Joe asked what fraud there’d ever been. She wasn’t amused. The volunteer threatened to call the police; Joe threatened worse.

The rest had happened so fast no one was exactly sure what went down. The poll worker was out cold with a black eye on the table and Joe was speeding off in his pick-up truck. In a few minutes the police arrived, surrounded the building and began questioning people. The volunteer told them Joe’s name but the other people present gave no clue as to where he might have gone.

Things quickly escalated as the police wanted to examine the voting apparatus. They claimed it may have been tampered with in the chaos. Everyone knew it was bunk and an obvious power grab.

People surrounded the voting machines. A cop fired his weapon in the air. Several flinched but all managed to hold their ground. A tense situation only became tenser as Joe pulled up outside with reinforcements. His truck bed was full of good ole boys with automatic weapons. The police had a few handguns between them at best.

An officer considered calling in the SWAT but in a scene reminiscent of the old West, Joe Briggs kicked down the door and shot the radio clean out of his hand. The rest of the officers didn’t take long to surrender after the fact. They were outnumbered, outgunned and scared shitless from the looks of ‘em.

All the authorities could do was watch as Joe let everyone inside to vote. He still made sure no one cheated but he was fair about it. At the end of the night he even let the cops cast their vote, provided they didn’t report anything.

93-Year-Old Tennessee Woman Who Cleaned State Capitol For 30 Years Denied Voter ID

I don't care what your ideology is. You should vote and no one should be able to stand in your way.

by thinkprogress.org

A 93-year-old Tennessee woman who cleaned the state Capitol for 30 years, including the governor’s office, says she won’t be able to vote for the first time in decades after being told this week that her old state ID failed to meet new voter ID regulations.

CEO?

Indiana's Republican Chief Election Officer was charged with voter fraud recently. Sort of ironic for a party proclaiming to be against the egregious, rarer than lightning strike act.

Strange?

Given it was Mitch McConnell's statement that made Boehner back down, I must admit I feel something of respect for the old turtle.  He finally came out of his shell.

Anonymous declares war on Congress with #OpAccountable

I may not completely agree with their tactics, but their message is brilliant.

By Muriel Kane of Rawstory

The National Defense Authorization Act for 2012 has been assailed by civil libertarians for its provisions which allow for the indefinite detention of American citizens without trial. Now the hacktivist collective Anonymous has joined the battle in its own distinctive manner, declaring war on the members of Congress who voted for the legislation under the operation name #OpAccountable.

“This is an open letter to the US leaders,” the operation wrote in a document released on Friday, which cited both the NDAA and attempts to pass so-called anti-piracy legislation that critics fear would amount to preemptive censorship of the Internet.

“We have watched as you have violated the very laws that guarantee your power. We have witnessed your fall from Representatives of the People to Representatives of Greed and Corruption. We’ve been watching you systematically destroy the rights of your own people, one law at a time.”

The letter goes on in the flamboyant style typical of Anonymous to state, “We are now here to undo your sordid life’s work in its entirety. No longer will your transgressions go unnoticed. No longer will you enslave the people. The world will know of your violations against the rights of the citizens you were elected to represent.”

After quoting all ten articles of the Bill of Rights, it concludes, “Every time you violate these amendments we will ensure the people are aware of your actions. You may have previously succeeded in concealing your actions, but that time has come to an end. You were elected by us, and you can be removed by us.”

The letter was accompanied by a document listing all available Twitter accounts of members of Congress, including both those who voted for and those who voted against the legislation. Another document has since been posted giving basic biographical and political information on three senators, with the promise of more to come. It is not clear, however, what Anonymous intends to do with these releases.

A Rare Post Against the Government

The internet is threatened, comrades.  Republicans and Democrats seem eager to destroy and control all forms of speech using national security as a backdrop.  Such fine legislators as Joe Lieberman think we need a kill-switch in the event of war. But as always it stands to reason what we're fighting for.  If we sacrifice our freedoms to gain freedom are we really any better off?  The Intel Hub reports that "any social media website that allows users to freely post content could be shut down at any time if any infringing content is posted on the site. This means that all of YouTube, all of Twitter, all of Facebook, all free blog hosts, etc. could be forced to close down if a single individual posts infringing content."  It sure sounds like we're throwing our people under the bus, driven by a Wall Street exec with Boehner riding shotgun.

Romney'd In the Balls

This just in: Romney endorses Gingrich! Or at least... he might as well.

CLEAR CHANNEL REPLACES SAN FRAN’S ONLY LIBERAL AM STATION WITH GLENN BECK

What was that old adage about the liberal media? I guess Limbaugh will have to find a new dead horse to beat...

By Think Progress:

Radio giant Clear Channel Communications is removing San Francisco’s only progressive AM talk radio station from the band, replacing it with mostly conservative content like Glenn Beck and Fox News Radio. As Brad Blog reports, Green960-KKGN will now move to the “radio ghetto” of FM HD2, which requires listeners to have an HD radio. Clear Channel, which now happens to be owned by Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital, said in a press release announcing the move that they saw an opportunity to “expand our footprint in this crucial arena as we head into an election year.” Clear Channel is the nation’s largest radio network and the vast majority of their talk radio content — 86 percent, according to liberal talk radio host Bill Press — is conservative.
