An Immediate Threat To American Liberty

 

And the only thing that can save it is you.

 

Should the President of the United States be able to seize control of all three branches of government and rule without limits? Surprise!  Right now there is a Presidential directive that allows the President to do this without even consulting the Congress or Supreme Court.

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina and the perceived failure of the President to act quickly in that tragic time, a new Presidential Directive was put into effect.  This directive allows consolidation of power in a national crisis. While the intent may have been good, the ramifications are shockingly dangerous. Directive 51 20 allows the President--at any time and without oversight-- to decide that there is a crisis and to assume all operations of the Congress, Federal Courts and Military. This absolute power is unbelievably dangerous and could prove far too tempting for any one leader. The crisis could be any incident that the President decides is a crisis, anywhere in the world that disrupts or affects the U.S. Population, infrastructure, environment, economy or government function. From the time the crisis is declared until the President decides it’s over, one person would have complete and uncontestable rule. Besides all functions of the government and command of the military, any private sector activities (businesses, churches, technologies) may be nationalized and directed by the “government.” Our Constitution was designed to limit the Government’s power and to create checks and balances so that this type of tyranny would not be possible. Presidential directive 51 20 subverts the intention of the Constitution, and though it claims to “preserve” the Constitutional Government, it would in fact undermine it. In language that could only be created by a group of lawyers, it lays out a plan that would end 220 years of our Democratic Republic defined in the Constitution and grant one person dictatorial powers.

   

 

 

 

A Presidential Directive is not the same as an Executive Order, which must be published in the National Register.  For this reason, most of our representatives in Congress are probably unaware of Directive 20 51. A Presidential Directive remains in effect until the current President or a future President overturns it. Directive NSPD 51/HSPD 20 can be viewed on the White House website at http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/05/20 0 70509-12.html

 

 

   Most of America is completely unaware of this incredible risk to our Liberty and to our Constitution. The only way that this directive will be overturned is if we make people aware of the danger and if enough people demand that the President rescind it. Most of us will never get a chance in our lives to directly defend American Liberty, but this is our opportunity to do so.

Be polite, but ask that the President overturn NSPD 51/HSPD 20--too much power--too much temptation.

 

Most importantly, forward this on to every American you know who cares about the future of Freedom in America.

 

The Directive is known as

National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive (signed into effect May 9th 2007) or the National Continuity Policy

If you wait until a President uses this power to voice your dissent, your voice will never be heard.
