It’s Now or Never-The Republican Culture of Corruption must be stopped
Republican Congressman Ron Paul spoke to Alex Jones and as a Washington insider seems to have information that the incredibly corrupt Republican House of Cards is coming down.
interview with Alex Jones
“I think there’s a lot more excitement coming and it’s not going to be good for the Republicans,” stated Paul.
“The things that I hear have to do with Karl Rove and Abramoff and that’s much much worse than anybody would believe and it involves DeLay as well.”
“And that type of an indictment will be much more serious than the indictment of shifting campaign funds around…..there’s some political infighting which could make that really interesting.”
And then there is this damning information about Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist…
“The Associated Press reported on Tuesday that Frist earned tens of thousands of dollars from HCA stock in a partnership controlled by his brother, outside of the blind trusts he created to avoid a conflict of interest.
“It seems that for years, Frist may have misled his constituents and the American people about his health care industry stock holdings and the conflict of interest they created as he drafted our nation’s health care policy,” …
“Within days of Frist’s July stock sale, HCA warned investors about weaker-than-expected financial performance, which sent the stock price spiraling downward by 9 percent in one day.”
Exposing the Republican culture of corruption in Washington, D.C. couldn’t come at a better time, as Bush is asking congress to abolish Posse Comitatus and allow him to set up Martial Law to quarantine US citizens.

“To me it’s so strange that the President can make these proposals and it’s even plausible. When he talks about martial law dealing with some epidemic that might come later on and having forced quarantines, doing away with Posse Comitatus in order to deal with natural disasters, and hardly anybody says anything. People must be scared to death.”
Paul, himself a medical doctor, agreed that the bird flu threat was empty fearmongering….”My first reaction going from my political and medical background is that it’s way overly hyped and to think that they have gone this far with it, without a single case in the whole country and they’re willing to change the law and turn it into a military state?”
It seems they are already using New Orleans to try out their military state, setting up Guantanamo at a bus station, forcing people to sleep on concrete and do slave labor…all for being arrested for violating curfew…
Anthony Jack, former detainee, explains
“I was in my yard, and a young white guy came by the gate and I was talking to him and the police came and arrested both of us,” he recounted. “He was outside breaking curfew; I was inside… behind the gate. The police broke my gate down with a pick-ax. They broke it completely off the fence.”
They were then told they could either plead guilty and they would be sentenced to about 40 hours of “community service.” or if they wished the maintain their innocence they would be sent to Hunts Correctional Facility where they could wait as long as 21 days to be processed.
In the end, given the choice between unpaid work and continued incarceration, nearly all chose to plead guilty.
“The police are basically arresting people for curfew violations and public intoxication and just using it as a way to get free labor to clean up the prisons and court houses and the police stations. They’re just using it as a way to get people to do their dirty work for free.”
Brandon Toussaint said he was arrested going from the downstairs of is apartment complex to another apartment upstairs.Toussaint said he had already done a few days of work for the police, cleaning up and painting their facilities.
“If they needed someone to clean up their city, they could have just asked,” he said.
This abuse of power and disregard for the US consitution must be stopped immediately if we are to save what is left of our democracy. Otherwise, Guantanamo might be coming to a town near you.
As Ron Paul suggests…the government is on a delusional power trip that threatens the country.
“These guys are ready to start a war with Iran, Syria, North Korea or China. They can’t possibly do that, it’s so insane, we don’t have the money, we don’t have the troops, we probably don’t even have the ammunition.”
“But, if they are truly delusional they just might do something that’s totally irrational.”
