Devvy Kidd -- The National ID is Not Mandatory

THE NATIONAL ID IS NOT MANDATORY

"Each State, in ratifying the Constitution, is considered as a sovereign body, independent of all others, and only to be bound by its own voluntary act. In this relation, then, the new Constitution will, if established, be a FEDERAL, and not a NATIONAL constitution." --James Madison, Federalist No. 39, January 1788

One of the top ten issues right now is the insidious National ID. Many believe this latest Nazi-style tool is to fight the endless, vague "war on terrorism." It is no such thing. It is yet another attempt by the Congress and Bush to control we the people against our will, this time by denying you certain privileges if you refuse to comply. The sponsor of this bill is one of the most dangerous individuals in Congress, Republican James Sensenbrenner. This trasher of the Bill of Rights sponsored this junk bill, passed along party lines (261-161) which was eventually, surprise! surprise! got attached to what is called a "must-pass" Senate bill glued to the unconstitutional plundering of the people's purse to continue the unconstitutional "national building" in Iraq as well as unconstitutional stealing from the people's treasury for tsunami relief.

Because these duplicitous lawyers who serve in Congress knew they could not force this mandate on the states, it is voluntary on the part of the states. I will again quote from a document obtained and reproduced from the National Archives titled: Memorandum for Walter Zellman from Sallyanne Payton, clearly marked: Preliminary Draft for Official Use Only. Do Not Quote or Release For Any Purpose, page 4, Health Care Task Reform under Hillary Clinton:. Please note these sections:

"(b) may the federal government use other actors in the governmental system and the private sector as its agents and give them orders as though they were parts of a prefectorial system? The short answer is "no." State governments are independent, although subordinated, sovereignties, not subdivisions of the federal government.

"Although the federal government may regulate many of their functions directly [as well, for example, it subjects state water districts to the Clean Water Act], it may not require them to exercise their own governmental powers in a manner dictated by federal law. The states may be encouraged, bribed or threatened into entering into joint federal state programs of various sorts, from unemployment insurance to Medicaid; but they may not be commanded directly to use their own governmental apparatus in the service of federal policy. There is a modest jurisprudence of the Tenth Amendment that seems to have settled on this proposition. See the DOJ [Dept. of Justice] memorandum for a fuller elaboration."

What does this mean from a constitutional position? It means that the government can bribe the states, they can threaten them, but in fact, the states cannot be forced to get down on their knees to the federal government. In other words, no state of the Union has to comply with the National ID. In order to squash any rebellion, Congress then mandated that any any citizen who refuses this National ID will be prohibited from flying on commercial flights, entering any government building or opening a bank account. In the case of the State of Oregon, that state recently updated their drivers licenses and began issuing them in the new format for eight years. This will all be chucked if the people of Oregon do not demand their state legislature stand up to the feds. Tons of money wasted; multiply it by 50 states and you have massive waste for no legitimate reason.

We know for a fact that members of Congress do not read legislation they vote on. This year the House of Representatives will be in session creating mayhem and shredding the U.S. Constitution for a total of 79 days. The rest is basically a paid vacation (just like the counterfeit U.S. Senate) for junkets and fund raising. How many of them even bothered to read Public Law 109-13?

This Machiavellian new law will further bankrupt the states, i.e., the estimated cost to the Union: Somewhere $9.1 billion and $12.8 billion. All of this is completely unnecessary and it is a direct result of the 9/11 "event." This National ID under the control of the dangerous and completely useless Department of Homeland Security, run by a very evil man, Michael Chertoff, has nothing to do with fighting terrorism. It is all about people control and amassing huge data banks to snoop on Americans.

Millions of Americans are opposed to this ID and will refuse it - even if their state representatives prove too cowardly to stand up to Washington, DC. New Hampshire came close last March 2006, but Republicans killed this magnificent show of standing against tyranny. Why was there no massive outrage by the good people of New Hampshire? Because most of them do not realize the importance of stopping this "voluntary mandate" against the states and you can blame the Ministry of Propaganda, aka the media, both mainstream and cable. The states of the Union issue their own drivers licenses and that is their domain, not the federal government, but how many Americans know this? No National ID is fool proof from tampering, period. Because this is a fact that has been proven, the next logical step will be a forced bio chip under the skin as the only way to "fight the war on terrorism." Mark my words: the National ID is the gateway tool for a chip and I ask: "Where are the churches in this country?" Why are they not warning their flocks that the Mark of the Beast is just over the horizon?

States must stand up to the feds and say no. If the estimated cost to the 50 states of the Union is between $9.1 BILLION and $12.8 BILLION, you can bet the end result will be triple that due to sheer numbers and incompetence. Every state legislature and governor must notify the federal government that they will not participate and assert their sovereignty; see Marbury v Madison and U.S. v Lopez. This will not happen unless millions of Americans get in the face of their state legislators, governors and banks NOW, not next February or a week before you're to be issued this ID. How do you do this?

1. You send a short letter to your state representative and state senator or send them a copy of this column with a note that you will NOT surrender your state drivers license. Yes, you understand that by not accepting this voluntary National ID you will be prohibited from flying on a commercial air liner, AMTRAK or enter a federal building (there goes jury duty). While this might present a hardship, you will NOT surrender any more of your rights to this federal machine and if that rep or state senator does not pledge to fight the National ID, you WILL vote against them if they're up for reelection or work hard to get them recalled and thrown out of office..

2. Attend any political function or town hall meeting before the November election and make your voice heard. Let the incumbent know that you will vote against him/her in November unless they give their word right then and there that they will fight the National ID on your behalf. It is voluntary for the states and you do not want your state tax dollars, whether a direct personal state income tax, sales tax, etc - spent on this worthless and totally unnecessary federal strong arming.

3. Notify your bank in writing (politely) that you will NOT be forced to accept this voluntary National ID and if it becomes a requirement to keep your bank account with their institution, you will with draw your money from their bank at the appropriate time. Banks - especially those local ones - need your business and if they suddenly begin getting hundreds or thousands of short, concise and non threatening letters that Americans are going to start pulling out their money, there will be giant rippling effect.

The National ID is opposed by organizations which represent MILLIONS of Americans. Every organization that opposes this National ID needs to put out a short letter of guidance to their memberships that they must act NOW and go after their state lawmakers. I live in the great State of Texas and have put together my letters to my state reps and will be getting them off in the mail by the time this column is posted. It is no sacrifice for me regarding the air lines because I refuse to fly; I refuse to surrender my rights to the TSA or any other government agency in their "war on terrorism," which I know is built on a mountain of lies. Just read Patrick Briley's intense and fully researched columns on how the FBI knowingly and willfully continues to protect known terrorist organizations operating inside the US; see here.

One very important thing occurred two months before 9/11 that most have either forgotten or didn't know and it has to do with airline security. Below are excerpts from one of the public hearings on 9/11; the full statement can be read by clicking on the link:

Statement on Aviation Security for the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States Seventh Public Hearing on Borders, Transportation, and Managing Risk

by Carol Ashley Member of the Family Steering Committee for the 9/11 Independent Commission Washington, D.C. January 26, 2004

"On September 11th, 2001, my beautiful 25 year old daughter, Janice, was killed in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. She worked on the 93rd floor of Tower One. Janice's dad, her 18 year-old brother and I were devastated by her death."

"Meanwhile, the American civilian population was blissfully ignorant of the danger. But some government officials stopped flying commercial planes, and others canceled plans to fly on September 11th. According to a CBS news report, Attorney General John Ashcroft stopped flying commercial airlines in July, 2001, due to an FBI threat assessment. [8]. San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown, who was scheduled to fly into New York City on the 11th, was advised late on the night of September 10th to be cautious about air travel into New York City. [9]. On September 10th, Pentagon brass suddenly canceled flights scheduled for the 11th.[10] 4

"Did some officials have advanced warning of the danger? If so, who advised them? Why wasn't the American public warned?"

"There were two changes to aviation security regulations in the summer of 2001. Two months before the terrorist attacks, a 40 year old FAA rule allowing commercial airline pilots to carry handguns was rescinded. [16] Who was responsible for rescinding this rule? What prompted the decision to disallow a regulation which had been in existence for 40 years?"

How every convenient that a 40-year old FAA rule allowing pilots to carry hand guns was rescinded only two months before 9/11. A huge number of commercial pilots are former military and war vets. They know how to use guns and fight. Yet, only two months before that horrible day, they are suddenly disarmed. Think how different things would have turned out had all those pilots been armed to fight off some thugs with box cutters. The most complete and thoroughly researched time line of events on 9/11 is found here.

Time is an issue for Americans and most do not have the luxury of being able to spend the amount of time I do researching. I would like to recommend three videos which are free on the Internet regarding 9/11: 9/11 Revisited, A presentation by Stephen Jones, Professor of Physics, Brigham Young University and Terror Storm. These videos are not silly conspiracy theories. Dr. Jones, a decent and courageous man is now a target to get him fired because of his scientific and scholarly analysis (and recent testing) regarding the molten pools of steel in the "pit" of ground zero. Actions of a desperate police state. Watch these videos with an open mind and using common sense, ask yourself, "How could this have happened?" and "What really happened that day?" Millions of Americans know the government's official story is little better than a fairy tale at this point in time. It's a painful realization, but truth must be the goal. Not party loyalty, not fear and not moral cowardice in refusing to look at the hard cold facts. [Please note: These Internet videos take time to load, but well worth the wait. I have DSL and it still takes a while if you don't let them fully load and try to play while your system downloads.]

If you are serious about refusing to accept the National ID, then now is the time to get started in creating such a back lash, the thousands of lawmakers in the 50 state legislatures will feel the heat and stand up to the feds. This is a major, critical fight and an important tool for totalitarian government we must defeat. Sticking one's head in the boob tube watching some sporting event or going to the mall will not make the truth go away, it will only further the efforts of those out to destroy this republic. Freedom is every American's duty and responsibility. Those who birthed this republic and their families spilled thousands of gallons of blood on the battlefield so we could be free. Those freedoms are being torn from us at a rapid rate and it is your responsibility to join the growing millions of Americans who refuse to surrender our rights and our nation to a one world totalitarian government.
