I’m noticing more and more in my every day paradigm breaking that there seems to be a syndrome of people who try to tie in every legitimate concern with illegitimacy to discredit the processes of life and life’s information.

I call this the “Boy who cried wolf” syndrome. Lets examine the classic children’s fable:

From Wikipedia:

“The Boy Who Cried Wolf, also known as The Shepherd Boy and the Wolf, is a fable attributed to Aesop (210 in Perry’s numbering system[1]). The protagonist of the fable is a bored shepherd boy who entertained himself by calling out “Wolf!”. Nearby villagers who came to his rescue found that the alarms were false and that they had wasted their time. When the boy was actually confronted by a wolf, the villagers did not believe his cries for help and the wolf ate the flock (and in some versions the boy). The moral is stated at the end of the fable as:

Even when liars tell the truth, they are never believed. The liar will lie once, twice, and then perish when he tells the truth.”

They boy cried “Wolf” over and over again, with illegitimate reasons. The townspeople got tired of being alerted for no reason, and let him get eaten alive.

The 10th Amendment
Regardless what you think of the Civil War and its reasoning, what we’re expected by the mainstream to take away from Civil War Studies is that the Southern States were trying to use the 10th Amendment to justify what they felt was a legitimate practice, in violating the rest of the Bill of Rights of certain individuals. The 13th and the 14th Amendment was written.

Ever since then, 10th Amendment discussion has been based mostly on Abortion Law.

There is now a movement to re-assert 10th Amendment rights of the States. We are not being taken seriously.

“10th Amendment!! 10th Amendment!!”
“aww you’re just using that to take other humans’ rights”..slaps the boy..goes back to sleep
“10th Amendment!! 10th Amendment!!”
“Abortion? Really”…goes back to bed
2009-
“10th Amendment!! 10th Amendment!!”
“Not again!@ Who Cares? Go to Bed!!”
………..as the states are eaten by wolves.

Impeachment
“Impeach!! Bad President!!”
“He’s lying about a blow job. This is what is so important, that you called all of us here?”…goes back to bed
“Impeach!! Bad President!!”
“NO MORE PARTISAN GAMES!! GO TO BED!!”
……the wolves eat the constitution

Who do we blame?
Those who make our processes and information illegitimate?
I say we blame the townspeople.
When it’s your duty to watch a child, no matter how many times he gets out of hand and cries wolf, he is still your responsibility.

Reject the notion that any information or constitutional process is no good based on past experience.

Keep an open mind and an open eye trained on your Government.
Or we are ALL Dinner to the wolves.

Shortly after 5:00pm on Wednesday May 13, 2009, the Missouri State Senate took a vote on HB 361 to repeal the Federal Real ID Act.

After about an hour of interesting debate, that ranged from unfunded federal mandates, to constitutional infringements, to the political courage of the federal level government’s unwillingness to make it’s own Identification Card, to Senator Purgason’s recently deceased mule, the Senate passed the repeal bill unanimously 32-0.

Please contact your senator and thank them for their support.

Members of Liberty Restoration Project and We The People Foundation Missouri were granted an impromptu meeting with Charlie Shields regarding HB 361, a state repeal of the Real ID act.

The next morning, HB 361 was placed on the senate calendar. Please show your gratitude by thanking Sen. Shields (573) 751-9476

Ltd. Gov Kinder taking time from a VERY BUSY DAY (he was preparing remarks for the event you can hear in the background) to talk to us about MIAC. His comments on our attempts to see the governor (before we went in again), “you will have to ask his office, but I doubt it, I doubt he will make time to see you….that word needs to get out on that, too…. put that up on a blog and youtube”

Ed Martin, former Chief of Staff to former Governor Nixon, was scheduled to be on the Liberty Restoration Hour before our visit to the Jefferson City as a part of our 50 activists from 50 states in 100 days.  The timing could not have been more perfect as he was able to respond to the interaction in Governor Nixon’s office yesterday as well as discussing the projects he is currently working on (including the upcoming Conservative Heartland Leadership Conference and working on the issue of term limits) .  You can learn more by calling 314.256.1776 or visiting conservativeheartland.org

Tune in to the Liberty Restoration Hour 5 days a week on www.rtrradio.com at 9am central.

Press Release

For Immediate Release

Missouri Governor Jay Nixon uses police to throw constituents out of office.

Jefferson City, MO. May 6^th, 2009

Members of the Liberty Restoration Project and We The People were thrown out of the Governors office today around 12:00pm after being instructed that they were “not welcome to return”. Members of the group were returning for the 4^th time to request a meeting over the Missouri Information Analysis Center document that was rescinded. They waited patiently for someone with the Governors office to inform the group when and how they could schedule a meeting when a gentleman with the Governors office (who refused to state his name and job title) approached the group and said he was there to field questions. Catherine Bleish (Executive Director of Liberty Restoration Project) informed the gentleman that they were back for the 4^th time to schedule a meeting.

Soon into the conversation, Lt. Mike Meyer with the Missouri Highway Patrol came into the Governors office and informed the LRP that they were “not welcome” in the office and told the citizens not to return. After asking if they were viewed as threats or dangerous, the officer refused to answer the questions and continued to tell the LRP to leave the premise.

The Liberty Restoration Project is a focused group of concerned citizens that feel Government is acting out-of-step with the Constitution and works to return officials to act in the name of the people they serve. The LRP finds this tactic by the Governor and the Missouri Highway Patrol a violation of their right to meet with the Governor, and to be thrown out of “the people’s” office is viewed as a great insult to the people of Missouri.

The LRP is wishing to have media coverage as soon as possible and are working to upload the video taped confrontation to youtube. Please contact Catherine Bleish by phone (816-868-8806 cell) to either have phone interview or TV interview.

***VIDEO CAN BE SEEN HERE OF SAID EVENT:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FA8H83N7zPU***

WE ONLY HAVE 2 DAYS THIS IS URGENT.

1. if you can come to Jefferson City tomorrow facebook me (Catherine Bleish) asap and we’ll get carpools arranged. Anyone in Missouri. We will have cameras. This should be fun.

2. I need someone to put together a sheet we can give to each of the senators regarding the importance of this legislation while we are in town tomorrow.

3. I need patriots to call Sen Shields (R) and demand, politely, that he put HB361 on the calendar TODAY. 573-751-9476.

4. I need patriots to call Sen Engler (R) and demand, politely, when HB361 IS put on the calendar that he get it on the floor for a vote TOMORROW. 573-751-3455. I received some static from their office earlier.

5. Please call Sen. Shomeyer (D) and ask him to talk to Shields about this – he was very receptive to us in the committee hearing. Thank him for his support. 573-751-7852.

NO MATTER WHERE IN THE COUNTRY YOU LIVE, WE NEED TO BE MAKING EACH STATE LEVEL 10TH AMENDMENT ISSUE, SUCH AS THE REAL ID, SOMETHING TO BE ACTED UPON BY THE NATIONAL GRASS ROOTS. Lets get the pressure on.

This died in Sen. Committee Last year. All we are asking for is a vote. The citizens of Missouri and this beautiful Union of sovereign states deserve to see how Missouri senators feel about this issue.

Ask Shields what interest he has in supporting the Real ID… I am quite curious, quite frankly.

peace and love,
Catherine

Here is the deal. Sheilds’ office has to put on calendar. Engler’s office has to put on floor to vote after it has been put on calendar (they hinted they might not have the time to get it on the calendar, btw). Both offices know that if this isn’t taken care of via phone today we will be there in person with cameras tomorrow. WE WILL ABOLISH THE REAL ID IN MISSOURI

Members of Liberty Restoration Project contacted Senator Shields’ office this morning, and were first told that the committee hasn’t released it, and sent to Senator Callahan, the committee chair.

This information was WRONG. We were told that this was due to an error in website updates, and then sent to Floor Leader Senator Engler’s office as manager of the calender. This was WRONG ALSO

Senator Shields is the one who has to “Send” a bill TO the calendar, and Engler “fits” it in for debate.

Do NOT Let staffers play phone tag with parliamentary rules as we did. Let them know that you know Sen. Shields is the current hurdle and that you KNOW that with one week left of session this bill NEEDS ON THE CALENDAR TODAY! Once on the Calendar, make sure Engler’s office knows it and fits it in!!

Click here for the current status of the bill
(it will say when on calendar)
If possible, record your calls!
