USCOA DC Circuit Case # 05-5395

The Lawsuit To Restore
Constitutional Order

The Landmark
Right-to-Petition
Lawsuit Information
Center

In July 2004, almost 1800 Citizens initiated a landmark federal lawsuit
to have the Judiciary declare
 -- for the first time in US history --
the full constitutional meaning of the
First Amendment Petition clause.

The Right to Petition:
The profound constitutional tool
to peacefully enforce & restore
the Constitution & Bill of Rights
 

"Congress shall make no law...abridging
...the right of the people...to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

Join us as we claim & exercise 
our Right of Popular Sovereignty
 and our Right to government Accountability

Answers. Accountability.
 Redress. Liberty.

Whether the end is a justification for an immoral war against Iraq or a war against the Right to Petition and accountability, it makes no difference to the Government – the ends justify the means.  

Doubtless, from the White House to the Government’s lawyers and tax collectors, we have a clever bunch of tyrants treading on us.

Here’s a clue to the latest factual chapter in the continuing epic tale about WTP and the Right to Petition, which we present to you below:  

"WMD" is to the war against Iraq
 as WTP’s "Blue Folder" is
to the war against the Right to Petition

Don't miss this important update about WTP's fight
against the IRS "6700" lawsuit!

Upon filing the suit, the Plaintiffs formally asked the Court for emergency injunctive relief, i.e., to order state election officials to modify the voting procedures for the Iowa Straw Poll to insure the validity of the voting process.

Specifically, the desired order sought to eliminate the use of Diebold voting machines that had been officially decertified by the state of California on August 3rd, to assure that the ballots were never out of public view, to force state election officials to publicly hand-count the ballots at each voting station and to announce the results and to conduct the tabulation of the vote station subtotals under full public observation.

Protecting Ron Paul, the Rest
of the “2nd Tier” and America

Citizen Vigilance Essential

As things stand today, about 60 citizen camera crews and about 200 citizen volunteers are needed to conduct a “citizens’ exit poll” to double check the easily rigged Diebold electronic voting machines which the Iowa GOP intends to use to “count” the vote at the Ames, Iowa Straw Poll on August 11, 2007 – just a week from now. 

If you can possibly attend and/or donate to help with this “citizens’ exit poll” – see the action items at the end of this update – but first: 

Picture this:

Next Saturday, from 10 am to 6 pm, more than 25,000 residents of the State of Iowa will arrive on the campus of Iowa State University in Ames. They will be 18 years of age or older. They will be there to choose one man from a list of eleven men as their choice to be the next President of the United States of America.

At one of 60 vote stations they will receive a paper ballot. They will pencil in an oval next to the candidate of their choice. They will enter the paper ballot into a machine that will scan the entire ballot and record the vote. After voting, each voter will place a thumb into a container of purple ink.

After scanning each ballot the machine will deposit the ballot into a “black box” within the Diebold machine. At 6 pm each machine and black box are transported to a centralized “tabulation” room. The door to the room will be closed to the public.

Day of Prayer and Fasting: July 1st

On Friday, June 22, 2007, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit received the original and nineteen copies of the People’s Petition for En Banc consideration in the case We The People v. United States, Case No 05-5359.

A link to the People’s Petition is located at the end of this article. WE RECOMMEND YOU READ IT TWICE to absorb the finer points or if you don’t understand a word or concept. The future of the great American experiment in self-government hangs in the balance. To use the vernacular, “It’s crunch time.” This is the second highest Court in the land.

Constitution v. Law

What started in 1999 as a straightforward, honest effort to help Joe Banister obtain answers from the IRS to his petition regarding the alleged fraudulent origin and illegal operation and enforcement of the federal income tax system, has taken on the nature of an epic, characterized by events of historical, legendary and exceptional importance. 

Our epic is about nothing less than the Right of the People to hold the Government accountable to the Constitution by claiming and exercising the capstone Right guaranteed by the First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law…abridging…the right of the people…to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”  

Our epic is about the deeds of modern heroic Freedom Keepers, expressing the ideals, character, and traditions Free Men experienced during the first years of our nation, in their exercise of their Right to Petition for Redress of constitutional torts.  

Our epic is unfolding against a background of warfare between the Constitution and unconstitutional acts of Government that violate the tax, war, money and privacy clauses of the Constitution.

Our epic includes men of strong heart and character, unafraid to confront those that would seek to deny them their Liberty, and lesser souls as well, either too enamored with power or rapt with fear to proudly proclaim the self-evident truths and Principles of Nature that beckoned the dawn of the Republic.

WTP: Petition For Redress

Please sit and take a deep breath, or even two, before you begin reading this article.  

Sometimes the truth can hurt -- a lot. This may be one of those times.  It was for us. 

Before continuing, please remember: we are only the messengers; we deal with facts, not opinions; the Country and the Government are two separate things; we will forever love our Country and be willing to give our lives in defense of its system of governance – as designed and set forth in our founding document – but, we should always distrust the Government; we avoid all political questions; we seek only to hold those in Government accountable to Truth, Justice and the Constitution, regardless of their political stripes; we have confronted Democrat and Republican administrations with equal fervor.  

The last few months have been difficult ones for us. We have gone through an uncomfortable paradigm shift in our understanding of how our government has become unaccountable to the People and in coming to grips with the incredible risks our beloved Republic now faces.

Israel Lobby
& U.S. Foreign Policy:
Apartheid and Manipulation

In our March 18, 2007 article we raised the question of whether U.S. Middle East policy was repugnant to the General Welfare Clause of the U.S. Constitution.   

Specifically, we presented several questions that we believed needed to be answered: “What if the fundamental Rights, Liberties and Freedoms of Americans were being curtailed because the United States was becoming a police State? What if the United States was becoming a Police State because it was engaged in a War on Terror?

What if the War on Terror was a result of hostilities directed towards the United States because the United States was annually giving billions of dollars of its tax revenues to the Government of Israel, who was using that money to pay its military to seize and occupy territories belonging to Palestinians -- a people of a different ethnicity and religion -- and to support the tyranny of Apartheid and Ethnic Cleansing against the Palestinians?  

On April 7, 2007 we reported that we had received a number of sharp and caustic emails following the announcement that we would openly and objectively discuss the constitutionality of America’s financial and military support of Israel, the role that America has played directly and indirectly in the destruction of Palestine society, the “War on Terror” that has consumed our nation, and the developing Police State and erosion of individual Liberty and the rule of Law here at home.

On March 18^th we posted an article titled “Mid-East Policy vs. the U.S. Constitution” in which we said we were inviting representatives of the Israel Lobby (AIPAC) and the Governments of the United States, Israel and Palestine to attend GML 2007 to comment on the accuracy of a recent paper published by Professors John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, entitled, “The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy,” and a book published recently by Jimmy Carter entitled, “Palestine Peace Not Apartheid.” 

We wrote that according to Mearsheimer, Walt and Carter, the United States has abandoned its own national interest and security to advance the interests of Israel, that neither strategic nor moral arguments can justify America’s unconditional support for Israel, that the United States has become the de facto enabler of Israel’s unlawful expansion and military occupation of the Palestinian Territories, that the United States is paying for the destruction of the Palestinian society, that U.S. policy in the Middle East (including giving Israel well over $140 billion in U.S. income tax revenues) has been driven by the activities of the “Israel Lobby,” and that the Israel Lobby attacks any person or organization that criticizes or is perceived to be a threat to Israel’s interests. 

We wrote that if, in fact, the information presented by the Professors and Carter was correct, it must be concluded that U.S. Foreign Policy is repugnant to the General Welfare clause of the Constitution.

Read the article for more photos and video of the event...

For decades, the US Congress, Executive law enforcement agencies and certain federal Courts have been cooperating in a collective decision to disarm all Americans except themselves.

Despite the exacting, and prohibitory language of the Second Amendment that specifically protects the individual’s Right to Keep and Bear Arms, the federal government has embarked on a broad program of regulation, licensing, and police action to eviscerate the natural Right as it existed since long before the Constitution was adopted. 

The Right to Keep and Bear arms is so crucial to the protection of Life and Liberty that any infringement of that Right must be viewed as a high-order threat to Life and Liberty.  

When exercised individually, the Right provides for the security of one’s person, family and property.  When exercised collectively, the Right insures that the People always possess the means to free themselves from a despotic or tyrannical government. 

There should be no doubt as to the true purpose of the Second Amendment, despite the platitudes of politicians who sermonize about public safety and the lengthy dicta of some federal judges who attempt to rewrite history and want us to believe that words do not mean what they say, and that we should passively defer to our political leaders for our protection.

The Right is not simply about the right to hunt ducks or shoot clay pigeons.  The Right to Keep and Bear Arms is ultimately about the absolute Right of a free People to ensure that they always possess the collective capability to claim and exercise the Right of Revolution, if necessary, to secure Redress against constitutional torts and tyrannical government.

Rooms Available - Sign Up Now!

After many supporters responded to our call for $159 donations to assist others secure lodging for the upcoming Give Me Liberty 2007 conference, WTP is now poised to offer a limited number of free hotel room-nights to conference attendees seeking assistance in lowering their conference lodging costs. 

As you know, last week we began to offer a (free) 3-day, live pay-per-view Internet webcast and DVD/CD-ROM record of the conference proceedings in exchange for a donation of $159. 

Each donation of $159 enables WTP to directly subsidize the cost of a single night’s lodging for a room at the conference Hilton venue. 

We are now ready to offer a limited number of free hotel-night stays to conference attendees. We hope that by lowering the cost of lodging, many more will be able to participate in our important event.

GML 2007 Update

WTP needs your help.  

GML 2007 is being held at the Hilton Hotel in Alexandria, Virginia, Thursday-Saturday, March 29-31.  

We contracted with the hotel for 350 room-nights spread between Wednesday night, March 28 and Saturday night, March 31. We guaranteed payment for 80% (280) rooms at $159 each, plus 10% in taxes. As of today, the number of room reservations for GML 2007 at the Hilton is well below 280, meaning WTP is now faced with having to pay a very stiff penalty unless we come up with a solution to the problem. 

The feedback we are receiving from our supporters is that the overall cost of transportation, lodging and conference registration is too high-- enough to discourage attendance.  

In addition, we are finding that some people who have registered early for the conference found they could obtain a package including air transportation to DC and lodging at another hotel for a total cost just above that we had arranged for the cost of the rooms alone at the conference Hilton.

Our $159.00 Solution  

In order to resolve this dilemma, we have developed a solution that we hope will enable many more people to attend the conference and also give those that help us the opportunity to participate in the conference.

This coming Saturday, Sunday and Monday (February 24, 25 and 26) the Texas, Arizona and Florida chapters of We The People Congress will host public meetings with Bob Schulz, Chairman of We The People Foundation and We The People Congress.

Bob will speak on the Foundation’s two new Petitions for Redress, one regarding the Illegal Immigration issue and one on the impending North American Union (NAU).  

Schulz will discuss the profound, constitutionally prescribed solution available to the People to force the government to faithfully execute the immigration laws, to withdraw from all negotiations aimed at merging the United States with Mexico and Canada, and to end the ongoing efforts to build a privately operated, super inter-modal transportation system from Mexico to Canada cutting across America’s heartland. 

Schulz will also provide an update on the landmark Right-to-Petition lawsuit and the upcoming Give Me Liberty 2007 conference to be held in Alexandria, Virginia, March 29-31.

A Profound Solution
To The Treachery

If Faced With Treason

We The People Have A Duty,
And The Legal Power To End It

In yesterday’s article on Illegal Immigration we showed that Mexico is invading the United States:  This is a war without a declaration of war.  

We also showed that the President of the United States was adhering to this enemy of the United States by giving aid and comfort to Mexico and its invaders and that Congress was acquiescing:  This is treason. 

We also showed that the People have the Duty, the Right and the constitutional Power to peaceably procure relief by forcing the Government of the United States to faithfully execute the immigration laws and to otherwise honor and defend the Constitution: This is the power of the First Amendment Right to Petition for Redress of Grievances.
