Strategic Plan to Stop Global Government Formation via Climate Treaty Posted by ssshock

Fellow American Patriots,

We must put together a plan to stop this move to global government ASAP!  I've outlined a strategic plan below, and look forward to your input.  --Scott

WATCH THE VIDEO of Lord Monckton warning what the climate treaty will establish:  1) World Government, 2) Repayment of 'Climate Debt' (transfer of wealth from western nations to third world nations), and 3) Enforcement. 

Video of Monckton's October 14^th speech:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMe5dOgbu40 

Information from the YouTube page:

A draft of the treaty can be read here:  http

e are some observations on the draft document as accessed on 10/22/09:
Page 18: Section 38 of "A shared vision for long-term cooperative action" contains the text for forming the new government.
Page 43: Section 41 discusses possible taxation methods
Page 45: Section 46 Subsection (c) contains discussion of land use planning
Page 45: Section 46 Subsection (h) of the "Objectives, scope, and guiding principles" contains the text for enforcement and establishment of the rule of law.

"There has been considerable debate raised about Monckton's conclusion that the Copenhagen Treaty would cede US sovereignty. His comments appear to be based upon his interpretation of the The Supremacy Clause in the US Constitution (Article VI, paragraph 2). This clause establishes the Constitution, Federal Statutes, and U.S. TREATIES as the supreme law of the land. Concerns have been raised in the past that a particularly ambitious treaty may supersede the US Constitution. In the 1950s, a constitutional amendment, known as the Bricker Amendment, was proposed in response to such fears, but it failed to pass. You can read more about the Bricker Amendment in a 1953 Time Magazine article: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,806676-1,00.html"

Notes about the whole speech and the speaker here:  http://www.globalclimatescam.com/

We've got to take action to head this thing off now.  Perhaps the best opportunity to stop this will be in pushing the Senate to reject the treaty.  Read the following to get some ideas as to possible opportunities and issues in trying to block the treaty in the Senate:

The Essentials in Copenhagen

http://en.cop15.dk/news/view+news?newsid=876

EXCERPT:  "The Kyoto Protocol which sets binding targets for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions has been signed and ratified by 184 parties of the UN Climate Convention. One notable exception is the United States, and Yvo de Boer is "really happy" to see the US back in the international climate change process and that the US is also engaging domestically in the process.

"My big lesson from the Kyoto era is that it's really important that the government delegation that represents the United States is in close touch with the Senate, with the elected officials on what's acceptable and what's not," says de Boer, and he adds:

"I think that a major shortcoming of Kyoto was that the official delegation came back with a treaty they knew was never going to make it through the Senate. And this time I have the feeling that the communication is much stronger, that the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, through John Kerry, is really expressing strongly what they feel needs to be done in Copenhagen."

Yvo de Boer thinks the Kyoto Protocol was rejected by the US for mainly two reasons. Firstly, because it did not involve action on the part of major developing countries. Secondly, because it was felt by the Bush administration that Kyoto would be harmful to the US economy."

This article is further food for thought on strategy development:

Restore the Senate's Treaty Power

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/05/opinion/05bolton.html

EXCERPTS:  "Like past presidents, Mr. Obama will likely be tempted to avoid the requirement that treaties must be approved by two-thirds of the Senate. The usual methods around this constitutional constraint are executive agreements or a majority vote in the House and Senate to pass a treaty as a simple law (known as a Congressional-executive agreement).

Executive agreements have an acknowledged but limited place in our foreign affairs. Congressional-executive agreements are far more troubling. They have evoked scathing attacks by constitutional experts and have been strongly resisted in the Senate, at least so far."

"America needs to maintain its sovereignty and autonomy, not to subordinate its policies, foreign or domestic, to international control. On a broad variety of issues - many of which sound more like domestic rather than foreign policy - the re-emergence of the benignly labeled "global governance" movement is well under way in the Obama transition.

Candidate Obama promised to "re-engage" and "work constructively within" the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Will the new president pass a new Kyoto climate accord through Congress by sidestepping the constitutional requirement to persuade two-thirds of the Senate?"

"President Bill Clinton signed Kyoto, but the Senate in effect rejected it. He also signed the Rome Treaty of 1998 that established an International Criminal Court, which would subject American soldiers and officials to unaccountable international prosecutors and judges for alleged war crimes (including, potentially, the undefined crime of "aggression"). Mr. Clinton did not even send this agreement to the Senate. Mr. Bush "unsigned" it. Mr. Obama might re-sign it and seek approval by only a majority of both houses of Congress."

"It is true that some multinational economic agreements, like Bretton Woods, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, and the North American Free Trade Agreement, went into effect after approval by majorities of Congress rather than two-thirds of the Senate. But international agreements that go beyond the rules of international trade and finance - that involve significant national-security commitments, or that purport to delegate lawmaking and enforcement functions to international organizations, or that could fundamentally alter the American constitutional system of individual rights - should receive the intense scrutiny of the treaty process, regardless of their policy merits."

STRATEGIC PLAN TO STOP THE CLIMATE TREATY - Considering all of the above, some elements of a strategy begin to come into focus:

1.       Immediate development of a petition campaign and a media campaign to ramp up to the Copenhagen conference.  Campaign for Liberty should lead the effort and build a large coalition of many organizations.

2.       Mass deliveries of petitions, phone calls, faxes to the Senate, to Obama, and to national and local media.

3.       Regular screenings of the movie "Not Evil, Just Wrong" nationwide between now and the December conference.  (C4L should encourage every member to do a showing in their neighborhood!)

4.       Mass distribution of DVD copies of "Not Evil, Just Wrong", including to the national and local media.  (C4L should make a mass distribution arrangement with the filmmakers to get them more inexpensively.)

5.       Parents demand schools show "Not Evil, Just Wrong" if they've shown Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth"  (lesson plans available with DVDs
http://www.noteviljustwrong.com/shop?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tp
l&product_id=13&category_id=2)

6.       Other reputable movies, YouTube clips, etc can be assembled for use in the campaign as an alternate to, or in support of "Not Evil, Just Wrong".  Possible options include:

• Climate Chains - http://vimeo.com/7030026
• Many more excellent videos here - http://www.globalclimatescam.com/?page_id=10

7.       Introduce bills to "repeal" the un-ratified 17^th Amendment in State Legislatures, restoring Constitutionally required appointment of Senators, as discussed in the following two articles.  This effort would introduce widespread discussion of the risk of Senate approval of the Climate Treaty and other usurpations of U.S. Sovereignty and states' rights.

• Olympia Snowe, Health Care, and the Seventeenth Amendment (Devvy Kidd) - http://www.newswithviews.com/Devvy/kidd475.htm (see other linked 17^th Amendment articles)
• NH Votes on 17^th Amendment Resolution - http://www.newswithviews.com/NWVexclusive/exclusive13.htm

8.       Maintain a clear and strong focus on achieving passage of H.R. 1207 and S. 604 to Audit the Fed (since the U.S. funds a large portion of the United Nations programs, including these climate change treaty actions).

9.       Campaign for Liberty recruitment should be a key part of all events and efforts so that we can build our strength for the coming Senate battle (and for other efforts).

Please send me your thoughts on this strategy ASAP, and I'll recompile a revised strategic plan.

Cultivating Your Precinct Leader Garden Posted by LittleLightShining

The Precinct Leader plants seeds in the neighborhood garden, cultivates and nurtures them, and watches them grow. The Precinct Leader is a good neighbor.

A Precinct Leader makes the largest impact by simply connecting with neighbors. Meet a neighbor while out raking leaves, walking the dog, getting the mail, shoveling snow or mowing the lawn. Bring up something that affects the neighborhood and let them talk about it and you'll have an idea where they stand and what is important to them. Knowing about specific legislation that affects your neighborhood and keeping up with current events in your area is critical. That way, the Precinct Leader can match the neighbor's concern with current and upcoming legislation.

"Hey, did you know the city council just approved an increase in what we pay for trash collection? They're nickel and diming us to death." Listen to the neighbor's response and take note of it. If they are a hard-nosed tax and spender or don't want to talk about it, it's time to meet another neighbor. Listening to your neighbors is the key to good planting practices.

Attending city or town council meetings is a great way to cultivate your garden. When you listen to what people have to say and watch their reaction to certain things being said, you will know who might be a good person or persons to approach after the meeting and talk a little further to plant a seed. "I can't believe they just approved that." Let the neighbor talk. "I live off of McGee Street. Where are you?" If they're in your precinct, they'll remember you when you do your door-to-door survey and other activities. In fact, they may offer to help you. They will recognize your name when they read your Letter to the Editor in the news.

Precinct Leaders are instrumental in keeping tabs on what area representatives are doing, watching them closely, building a "file" on them and calling them out on their infractions. Letters to the Editor, radio call-ins and "tattling" to neighbors is effective and can even be fun. The whole point is to nurture, protect and cultivate your neighborhood garden.

Before you know it, you'll be the person that neighbors come to when they want to talk about issues. They'll come to you because they know you care, that you listen to them, that you're knowledgeable and that you will take action to protect your neighborhood. You will be the person that neighbors come to when they learn of a new piece of legislation and wonder how it may affect them. They will want to know your thoughts on upcoming election issues and candidates. Your influence will be felt in the community and you may be asked to become a member of a board or even run for office.

As a team, Precinct Leaders will come together at county- and district-wide meetings and in the state capitol for legislative sessions. Nationwide strategies will be employed. The more voices, the greater the impact. New faces and large crowds will keep local government on their toes. They are used to having people attend meetings near election time, but they are not used to us being there asking thoughtful questions between elections, where harmful legislation is many times passed virtually unnoticed.

After this election, our neighbors will begin to realize that nothing has changed. They'll continue to complain. We'll continue to listen and plant our seeds, water them and feed them, and with time and patience, reap the rewards as we stand proudly together in our lush neighborhood gardens across the world.
