    Brad Blog: Pandemonium at MO GOP Caucus as Party Leaders Seen Attempting to Steal It From Paul Supporters

    Police arrest peaceful Paul leader in parking lot after chaotic St. Charles meeting prematurely closed without delegate voteBy Brad Friedman, March 18, 2012 | Brad Blog

    ALSO: Similar scene played out in GA one week earlier...

    This is just amazing. At yesterday's GOP caucus in St. Charles, MO --- one of the largest and most conservative counties in the state --- the Republican establishment is seen blatantly attempting to steal the caucus from supporters of Ron Paul.

    As the caucus was prematurely shut down before a vote, with state police called in, no delegates were elected at what "was to have been the biggest single prize of the day," according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch coverage of the Missouri Caucuses' mess. It was just the latest, of many, embarrassments to arise out of a GOP caucus state this year.

    A Facebook page called "Hold St. Charles Republican Tyrants Accountable" includes many cell phone videos of the near riots that occurred as party leaders attempted to commandeer the caucus to thundering cries of protest and shouts of "Point of Order!" and "Division!" (a process in Roberts Rules of Order requiring an immediate written vote after a contested voice vote) by what seems to be hundreds of Paul supporters.

    Caucus Coup: Ron Paul Mob Overthrows Seattle GOP For 21 Delegates

    March 19th, 2012

    (HigginsBlog) – A mob of Ron Paul supporters run GOP establishment sock puppets off site at Seattle caucus, with ballots in hand, and win the prize of 21 delegates.

    The GOP was up to their dirty tricks in Seattle Washington as the Santorum, Gingrich, and Romney people tried to team to prevent any delegates from going to Ron Paul.
    But there was a little problem… they were massively outnumbered by Ron Paul supporters who just weren’t having it.

    Instead, they staged a coup and took the chair from few establishment GOP puppets on site who responded to the mutiny by walking off with the ballots and the scanners as an attempt to steal the delegates from Ron Paul.

    It didn’t matter because the crowd of highly motivated Ron Paul Supporters took over the caucus and figured things out just fine without using the fancy scanners.

    Then the establishment sock puppets tried putting motions through to kick out Ron Paul’s chair after voting ended, presumably so they can take the ballots and pull some shenanigans behind close doors.

    As a writer on the Daily Paul reports, the motions were responded to with “a resounding spartan-like “NAY!”

    Thanks to their efforts Ron Paul walked away with the entire slate of 21 Delegates.

    It truly is a sad time in America that voters need to form massive crowds to and literally take over the election halls just to have a fair vote.

    My hat goes off to the Ron Paul team for their dedications and persistence despite the corporate media blackout and the lies they face in their battle against the establishment’s propaganda machine.

    The Daily Paul reports:
    FLASH! (UPDATE) Seattle Washington Caucus: CONFIRMED. 21 Delegates Are Going To The State Caucuses For Ron Paul.(Video)

    I’m at it right now, an alternate who couldn’t vote. There was a lot of fighting early on as we took over with the chair and started what should be labeled a ‘caucus coup’. GOP likely ran off with the bubble-sheet ballots when we took over, there was a lot of confusion over how to keep the voting legit now that the ballots that were supposed to be here vanished. Motions rose to kick our chair out after voting ended and chaos reigned, which ended with a resounding spartan-like “NAY!” during voting on the motion. Very awesome. Some guy on an oxygen tankrequested for us to hurry up before he ran out of air, people rose to volunteer tanks they apparently had lying around. Very bizarre and funny.

    6 hours later, looks like we took the ENTIRE slate of delegates. Congrats North Seattle, I hope we keep this up everywhere. Go Ron Paul!

    An open letter to the citizens of the United States of America

    March 18, 2012 by ppjg

    An open letter to the citizens of the United States of America

    Presently, this nation is in the midst of the most important election in history and most Americans have no knowledge of its significance. We truly are at a crossroad and the primary issue on hand is whether or not our Republic will be restored or if we will remain a nation beholden to and controlled by the New World Order. Our choice is clear. Vote for Ron Paul who stands for a government defined by and subservient to our Constitution or vote for a candidate who secretly swears allegiance to the New World Order.

    I am sure that most people will take issue with the above paragraph. For the past eighteen years I have tried to wakeup my fellow Americans to the truth with no success. Apparently, all I have accomplished is convince others that I am out-of-touch with reality. Of late, I have been so frustrated I gave up and tried to focus my attention on other unimportant pursuits. However, I still found myself pondering what could be done to change things. It finally occurred to me that for others to believe what I believe, they would have to walk down a path similar to mine. With this in mind, I developed a list of questions about events which have shaped and define the world we live in today. These questions are the key which opens the door to the truth, but they will only have value if people care enough to find the correct answers.

    Being an American presupposes an obligation to be informed. An informed electorate is an important requisite for both a Republic and a Representative Democracy. The following list of questions hold the keys to understanding where we are and how we got here. A majority of Americans will not be able to readily answer most of these questions. Furthermore, many of them are about obscure events no longer in the public eye. However, the answers are worth seeking because knowing the truth really will set us free. Unfortunately, too many of us care little about what is being done to us and place far more value on knowing who is on Dancing With the Stars. This is why our oppressors are having their way with us, this is why writing this article is an exercise in futility, and this is why Ron Paul, the only candidate running who has a history of working to restore our Republic, will not be our next President.

    1. What is the Federal Reserve Bank, how does it function, and who owns it?

    2. What services does the Federal Reserve Bank provide to this nation and how much do we pay for these services?

    3. The Federal Reserve Act was passed by Congress in 1913. What were the developments and actions which led to passage of this act?

    4. How well has the Federal Reserve lived up to the promises it made to Congress when the Federal Reserve Act was being considered?

    5. In 1913, Amendment XVI was allegedly added to our Constitution and it authorized a tax on income. However, a tax on income and a tax on wages earned through labor are two different things. Was Amendment XVI properly ratified according to law and did it really authorize a tax on the wages of working Americans?

    6. Why did a tax on the salaries of American workers become necessary in 1913 when it was never needed before?

    7. In 1913, Amendment XVII was added to our Constitution. This Amendment provided for the direct election of national Senators by citizens in lieu of their being appointed by their respective state legislators. If this change was beneficial, why didn’t the Founding Fathers provide for such a state of affairs in our original Constitution? What effect did this change have upon the power structure of our government?

    8. The three preceding developments which happened in 1913, made significant changes to how we are governed. Is it a coincidence that that these changes happened in the same period of time or are they related and tied together in some manner? Are the changes, when considered together, significant enough to constitute a change in the kind of government we live under? What is the difference between a federal government and a national government?

    9. In 1917, why did the United States choose sides and enter what essentially was a European conflict of no pressing interest to us and by so doing, turn a limited war into World War I?
    10. Why did England issue its Balfour Declaration supporting the establishment of a homeland for the Jews in Palestine approximately four months after the United States entered WWI? Did England have any right or authority to approve forcing the Palestinians to give up their territory? How would the British feel and react if the United States gave France the right to takeover their country?

    11. Why did the Treaty of Versailles severely punish Germany after it was defeated by the allies in 1918, especially in consideration of the facts that Germany did not start the war, was winning prior to United States becoming involved, and in 1916 issued a peace proclamation which offered the warring nations peace with honor?
    12. Was there any anti-Semitism worthy of note evident in Germany prior to WWI?

    13. Prior to WWI, German society was the most sophisticated in all of Europe and German proficiency in science and the arts was without parallel anywhere else in the world, including the United States. In consideration of how intelligent and cultured the German people were, why did so many Germans become anti-Semites and why did they allow the Nazi Party and a madman like Adolph Hitler to come to power?

    14. Why did the Zionist movement to establish the state of Israel in Palestine support the Nazi Party and Adolph Hitler’s rise to power in Germany after WWI?

    15. Why did a conference of world Jewry, held in Amsterdam in 1933, declare war on Germany and why did Natscha Retsch, a Jewish newspaper, declare that the purpose of this world wide Jewish war was to totally destroy Germany?

    16. Why did President Johnson cease printing United States Treasury Notes, a practice initiated by President Kennedy before he was assassinated? Why has no other president since Kennedy printed U.S. Treasury Notes when doing so is to our benefit and would save us huge amounts of interest on our national debt?

    17. During the Six Days War between Israel and Egypt in 1967, why did President Johnson refuse to allow United States forces to come to the aid of the USS Liberty when it was being attacked by Israeli jets and torpedo boats?

    18. During the Six Days War in 1967, why were American airplanes airborne and armed with nuclear bombs to be dropped on Cairo recalled prior to completing their mission?
    19. Why did the United States, where the separation of church and state is enshrined within our Constitution, ignore this important governing principle when it supported establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine in 1948?

    20. Today, Arab terrorism is a fact of life. What are the reasons why some Arabs resort to terrorism? Is the evil that terrorists do the product of deranged minds or is the situation more complex than this?

    21. Should American foreign policy be driven by what makes sense and is fair or by continually repeating the mistakes we have made in the past?

    22. The New World Order is a fact of life, yet no one really knows who runs it or how it functions. Worse than this, no one elects representatives to the New World Order and despite this, a majority of the world’s leaders pay homage to this nefarious secretive organization. Presidents George Bush, Sr. and Bill Clinton actually had the nerve to endorse the New World Order and urge Americans to accept its authority. Under our Constitution, how is it possible for a government official to honor their oath of office while supporting and paying homage to a group of amoral megalomaniacs who think their vast wealth gives them license to rule and corrupt the entire world?

    23. The United States is presently thought of as being a Democracy. How is it possible for this nation to be a Democracy if major and important decisions which affect us are made by an unknown group of people not elected by anybody?

    24. The Founders gave us a Republic which we swear allegiance to in our Pledge of Allegiance. It is our Republic which made this nation the greatest in all of history. Today, most Americans have no clue as to what a Republic is and wrongfully think we are a Democracy. However, if we live subservient to an un-democratic New Word Order, which we do, and this New World Order has rendered our Constitution dysfunctional, which it has, then where do we get the moral authority to wage war against other nations and force upon them the illegal and hypocritical kind of government we have?

    Many of you will probably take issue with the conclusion that the government of the United States of America is an ‘illegal’ government. However, the simple truth of the matter is that any government which does not adhere to or abide by the laws contained within the instrument of its creation, is illegal. How can any other conclusion be reached? A constitution is a compilation of the highest and most sacred laws of a nation. If these laws are ignored by those sworn to obey and uphold them, then these people are criminals and the government they occupy is a criminal enterprise. This is true even if we elect them to the office they hold. Elections do not legitimize criminality.

    Presently, Ron Paul is the only candidate who is committed to honoring his oath of office by working to restore our Republic. In light of this, it is reasonable to conclude that voting for any other candidate sanctions and gives license to tyranny. Unfortunately, most Americans today, have no clue as to what they are doing. At sporting and other events, they solemnly pledge allegiance to our Republic and then drive more nails into its coffin every time they enter an election booth. Isn’t it time for a real change? Today, Americans cry out for change never stopping to look in the mirror to see where the change is needed most.

    BREAKING ELECTION FRAUD: Why Did ABC-TV Post Illinois GOP Primary Results 24 Hours Early?!

    by SGT

    On the eve before the GOP Illinois primary, one might ask:

    How the hell does SGTreport have election results for a Republican primary in Illinois which has yet to take place?



    We have long argued that the fix is in but this… um… leaves us speechless


    Posted tonight – MONDAY, March 19th – on the web site of Chicago ABC News Affiliate WLS-TV are the following election results, clearly labeled as “Illinois Races, Federal Offices”. If we have this wrong, please let us know why this information exists in ANY form. Or, if we are indeed living in a banana republic, copy that. You now have our blessing to move out of the country.

    The time stamped screen shot from my computer, on Monday, March 19, 2012 at 11:29 p.m. CST is posted below.

    **UPDATE: Some time around 12:40 a.m. CST on Tuesday morning the web page (original link below) with the election data you see here was removed from the WLS-TV website.

    Ron Paul and the pink slip that could decide the election

    By Jack and Suzy Welch
    January 26, 2012
    Check out the Comments

    Have you ever woken up in the morning knowing you have to let someone go and just felt sick to your stomach? It’s the worst part of work, isn’t it? Even when it’s absolutely necessary — the money isn’t there or the employee hasn’t been contributing for ages — the emotional pain and mess of sending someone home is every good leader’s bęte noire.

    To make matters worse, letting someone go is, without doubt the moment when every leader is the most likely to screw up. Really screw up. Because when you fire a person the wrong way — that is, without generosity and respect — you can be sure of two things.

    You’ve hurt someone unnecessarily.

    And you’ve set up your organization for a future relationship from hell. After all, terminated employees don’t just fade away. They usually reappear, and pretty rapidly, as customers, suppliers, distributors, or in the worst-case scenario, competitors with an ax to grind.

    By the way, this is a column about Ron Paul.

    Yes, Ron Paul, and here’s why. The maxims of business and politics don’t always overlap, but when it comes to parting ways, they sure do. In business, firing someone incorrectly is a disaster that can haunt you for years. Same in politics.

    Now, the GOP isn’t technically going to “fire” Dr. Paul. But look, even Ron Paul knows he’s not going to unpack his suitcases in the Lincoln Bedroom. At some point, his wildly entertaining, Don Quixote-like campaign for the White House is going to run out of time.

    Video at the Link

    And then?

    And then, GOP, watch out! Sure, it appears Paul is unlikely to mount a third-party campaign — he’s said so himself. But he’s also unlikely to spend the next few months out on the stump for the nominee, or even in dutiful silence. In fact, you can easily imagine Paul as an outspoken TV commentator from now until November, basically running without running just to keep his ideas in the mix.

    But Paul is not really the GOP’s problem. It’s his followers, perhaps as much as 15 percent of the general electorate, many of them young, vocal and highly energized. Like Paul himself, they’re not exactly party regulars. No, Paul and his followers promise to be a lot like that fired employee who, if “handled” incorrectly at farewell, will make it his life’s work to, if not bring your organization down, at least show you how very wrong you were to cut the cord.

    The Republican Party would be flat-out careless to let that happen. Dr. Paul’s exit isn’t exactly going to be unexpected. Plus, the GOP leadership has an excellent example of how to correctly part ways right under its nose — in President Obama’s masterful handling in 2008 of Hillary Clinton, a bitter opponent right to the end, and Joe Biden, an early loser in the Democratic primary race. Both of these “terminated” rivals, along with Bill Clinton and his minions, could have easily spent Obama’s general-election campaign and his first term engaged in subterfuge, natter-nattering to the media about the Newbie-in-Chief’s every little misstep. Instead, Hillary Clinton was given a big job and a big jet and the opportunity to become the most popular woman in America. And rather than being trundled back to his commuter seat on the Amtrak to Delaware, the gaffe-ridden Biden was anointed vice-president and given the not-insignificant job of humanizing the more aloof Obama, a role he clearly relishes.

    And so it must be with the RNC and Ron Paul. There can be no brush-off. No “Phew, he’s gone. Now let’s get down to business.” No booby prize. Ron Paul needs to be given a role that really means something to him –- a role with influence and voice.

    The details of this role are not for us to identify — they can only emerge from the kind of good-faith negotiations that party officials should initiate soon with the candidate. All we can say is, in this kind of setting, as in the best-practice business parting, the “victor” must err on the side of bigheartedness and dignity. Whatever speaking role Dr. Paul wants at the convention, give it to him. If he wants some sort of advisory role in the new administration, the answer is: “Of course.” Like a business leader designing a severance package with a key player, the GOP leadership’s mindset must be: “When he walks out that door, Ron Paul is going to be a friend for life.”

    Because if he isn’t, Ron Paul and his followers will make their unhappiness known. And for the mishandling of this defining moment, the GOP will deserve their ire.

    Just like any leader who botches goodbye.
