PRINCIPLES...

[MAX 1]

Delivered to the Seattle home offices of Senators Murray and Cantwell on 07/23/07, read aloud to their staff with written request for a reply... and waiting...



PRINCIPLES...

~ Is the unilateral invasion and occupation of a sovereign nation that posed no imminent threat to the U.S. an American Principle?

~ Is fraudulently selling that invasion based on KNOWN false evidence, to a Joint Session of Congress (01/28/03) an American Principle?

~ Is indefinite detention of persons suspected and accused but not charged or tried nor found guilty an American Principle?

~ Is attempting to withhold Habeas Corpus Rights and Due Process from persons suspected and not charged an American Principle?

~ Is choosing which Treaties and Conventions to follow based on convenience an American Principle?

~ Is torture an American Principle?

~ Is warrentless wiretapping of American citizens an American Principle?

~ Is the rewriting of National Security Letters so as to cover what was otherwise illegally seized an American Principle?

~ Is the the politicization of the DoJ an American Principle?

~ Is signing unconstitutional bills into Law an American Principle?

~ Is usurping the co-equal Branches of our Government via signing statements an American Principle?

~ Is being involved in the outing a covert CIA agent an American Principle?

THESE - ARE - THE - NEW - AMERICAN - PRINCIPLES?

They are when good men do nothing, letting worse men institute new policies that set the groundwork for unAmerican principles to take root. Even worse is when good men accommodate the worse men and vote to enshrine these new principles into laws, theories, and other principles of being. Egregiously far worse, is when good men continue to do nothing thus codifying these new principles, inturn validating these worse men as exceptional men for their wisdom and brilliance at undermining what Real American Principles are.

So Congress,
It is times like this where facades MUST fall. What are your American Principles and how do you comport them into your Duty? You aren't supporting and defending the Constitution of the U.S.A., when you allow and tolerate the usurpations of the Constitution of the U.S.A. and the Constitutional Laws derived from therein.

Impeach and Convict those who have perpetrated these crimes against the people.

Then - End this war!

If certain acts in violation of treaties are crimes, they are crimes whether the United States does them or whether Germany does them, and we are not prepared to lay down a rule of criminal, conduct against others which we would not be willing to have invoked against us.

[MAX 1]

2. I don't mean to argue butttttt......

Neither of the Washington State Senators are calling for responsible accountability OF the criminals in High Office in any form, what so ever. Murray has gone as far as coming to Olympia with Jay Inslee to lobby the State House and Senate to NOT move forward with a Sate impeachment resolution and was successful at blocking it in the State House.

Both Cantwell and Murray have been under OUR EMPLOYMENT over these last SIX YEARS OF HELL... and they STILL deffer to the Republicans. Have they ever ONCE filibustered in the last SIX YEARS? Hell no, not even like the Republicans can AND do. Nope! The Dem's are far too polite and demure to ever do anything but COMPROMISE... even WITH criminals.

I hope the people get it. Dealing with dealers MAKES ONE A DEALER TOO!

They have participated in the COMPROMISE of our Bill of Rights. Sure, at times they stood against aspects. But when they did, DID THEY FIGHT TO PRESERVE OUR RIGHTS? Their Oath demands this minimum OF them as OUR PUBLIC SERVANTS.

They aren't supporting and defending the Constitution when they have allowed and tolerated the usurpations of OUR BILL OF RIGHTS and Constitutional Laws derived from within.

WHY ARE THEY ON VACATION?
WHY AREN'T THEY FIGHTING FOR OUR RIGHTS TODAY?

Oh, is it because the troops are doing the fighting over there so that no one has to fight about it here?
... NOT EVEN CONGRESS?

The 2008 elections are a Congressional Job Performance Review...
I say...
Grade 'em AT the polls. That letter is just a mid-term review.
