Bush's claim to dictatorial powers as "commander-in-chief" have been shredded by SCOTUS' Hamden v. Rumsfeld decision and Judge Taylor's ACLU v. NSA decision. The two decisions define many of the Usurpation's actions as felony conspiracies against citizen rights -- in violation of 18 USC 241 -- including years of violating the Geneva Conventions and warantless wiretapping against US citizens. Congress is guilty of nonfeasance in not breaking the obvious DOJ obstruction of justice with a new Independent Prosecutor law. We need to force our Congress to create that law. We also need to force a constitutional amendment to meld fully independent citizen lawmaking with our national rep govt so that the Usurpation and its many corruption machines can be ended. Fully independent citizen lawmaking is the only way for us to resolve many of our critical political problems. It's especially needed to abolish and punish the unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous Bush v. Gore decision -- so that we can prevent the recurrence of any such presidential usurpation in the future.

Part 1 -- Hamden & ACLU Decisions
 
Things are probably more dangersous now than what they seem. The three branches of the Usurpation's powerful fascist thugs have been wounded. A powerful front shoulder has been shattered, and the two-party beast's immense weight needed all four legs for quick maneuvering.

SCOTUS' Hamden v. Rumsfield, 28 March 2006, and Judge Anna Diggs Taylor's ACLU v. NSA, 17 August 2006, have told the centrists and the left that they have been right all along. Bush's self-claimed powers beyond the Constitution are delusionally fascist and without legal standing. They are, in a word, criminal -- in violation of the Constitution that the fascist mutt vowed to uphold.

Those two important rulings have steeply tilted the Bush-Cheney Usurpation's politics-as-usual tap-dancing platform toward the same legal arena in which centrists and the left ripped Nixon to shreds.

Many of the felonies of the two-party, three-branch, Bush-Cheney Usurpation center on the above-the-law and beyond-the-Constitution arrogation of dictorial power by Bush. Those felonies -- in combination with the unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous creation of the Usurpation with SCOTUS' Bush v. Gore in December 2000 -- and Congress' unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous give-away of war powers so that Bush could unconstitutionally declare his very own war of aggression in Iraq -- show a number of truths about whatever the hell it is that is pretending to be our national government.

Hamden and ACLU create a bas relief of Constitution-violating Bush-Cheney crimes. It's now plain for all to see that the Usurpation is more felonies, felons-in-waiting, and criminal accessories-after-the-fact than it is public officials, appointees, judges, and bureaucrats. It is more a collection of fascist thugs in service to the superrich's globalized corporate corruption machines than it is a government of, by, and for we the sovereign people.

Citizen reaction to this criminal government can be dumb indifference, dumber approval, or intelligent anger and rejection. The crys can go out: "Impeach and remove Cheney first" and "Impeach and remove the entire Congressional leadership of both parties for the nonfeasance of not creating an Independent Prosecutor to combat the constant Ashcroft/Gonzales obstruction of justice".

The congressperson's oath of office: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."

Clearly, that oath does not say, " -- except when dealing with a tyrannical, three-branch usurpation and wanting to keep my job more than wanting to do the right thing for my nation." It does not say, " -- except when my right-wing, fascist ideology has control of Congress, the federal bench, and the White House, and I really want to stick it to the goddamned liberals". It does not say, " -- except when me and the good-ol'-boys are ripping superrich welfare and corporate welfare out of the public monies so that the central banking cabal can print more fiat money and create more unconstitutional public indebtedness with their sneaky, increased-money-supply inflation."

As soon as it was clear, in December 2000, that the Clinton crew was going to stonewall, whitewash, and coverup SCOTUS' unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous elevation of a presidential usurpation, Congress should have forced through a tough new Independent Prosecutor law. Congress' clear obligation to support and defend the Constitution against the presidential usurpation had no other resolution.

Congress is very much a part of the guilty, wounded beast -- and every congressperson knows it. Sorting out the guilty from the innocent will not be difficult. We've never faced doing anything like it before, but it will not be difficult. The felonies are very clear. The lists of co-conspirators in those felonies will be unambiguous.

We need to criminally prosecute and imprison an overwhelming majority of Congress. We need to start with the 373 who voted to violate the Constitution and the 1935 SCOTUS ruling against Congress giving away essential legislative functions -- such as the war powers for the unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous invasion of Iraq. That invasion violated our soldiers' constitutional rights to be sent to war only on the expressed order of Congress. The Iraq invasion violated 18 USC 241. Every combat death in Iraq is a felony murder, per 18 USC 241. Congress' 373 co-conspirators face sentences of up to life imprisonment or death, per 18 USC 241.

The wounded beast is out there, but the Usurpation is not going to falter yet, of course. Its opponents and enemies can see that Hamden and ACLU define the Usurpation's gross, wide-spectrum illegality. However, Empire Strassemadchenfuhrer Gonzales has all justice obstructed, and the hapless international community is still stuck with this bunch of fascist thugs holding the powers of American national government.

The Usurpation will go right on doing its three-branch, politics-as-usual tapdances, playing to its servile base. It will go right on anchoring Diebold hack-o-matic vote-counting software in every state in which it has a Republifascist Secretary of State, so that the Empire wins Election 2006 no matter what. It will go right on wrapping up the deals that hand the superrich and their corporate sleaze one obscenely excessive profits package right after another, buried in as much secrecey and public money as is possible.

The budding "North American Union" -- to break down national borders, citizen rights, national currencies, and the people's sovereignty in Mexico, the US, and Canada -- is a prime example. Secrecy and public money are its middle name. The Usurpation and the globalized corporate corruption machines are quick-marching the NAU -- and its central banking cabal, national economies-smashing fiat currency, the "Amero" -- into existence before the sovereign peoples of the three countries have any opportunity to stop it.

For NAU development, see especially the essay, "Bush Administration Fast-Tracks Formation of North American Union", by Jerome R. Corsi, 11 July 2006, on the InfoWars site.

For the central banking cabal globalized corruption machine -- a treason to the sovereign people in every nation within which its partnership with politicians results in its legal counterfeiting of debt-based fiat money and its illegal usury of "fractional reserve banking" -- see especially the essay, "The Fed -- Jekyll Island Monster", 07 July 2006, on this site.

The Usurpation will go right on attacking every attempt to use Hamden and ACLU to limit the frenetic smashing of the nation for profits and power.
