Executive Orders And The New American Sovyet
There is a link to KrisAnne's Blog on this site but I wanted to post her
latest letter to Congressional leaders here for all to read.

Dear Mr. Boehner, Mr. McConnell, et. al;
Our federal government is out of control. It is not the role of the federal government
to regulate the daily lives of the citizens. It is not the role of the federal government
to regulate domestic commerce. It is not
the role of the federal government to tell farmers what to grow, nor tell
people what to eat. It is not the role
of the federal government to dictate the education of our children. It is not the job of the federal government to
trespass into state criminal investigations.
It is not the role of the federal government to control our
rural or municipal affairs; yet, the President has now established federal
councils for both rural affairs (Executive
Order 13575—Establishment of the White House Rural Council June 9, 2011)and
municipal affairs (Executive
Order -- Establishing a White House Council on Strong Cities, Strong
Communities May 1, 2012). Russia called
these councils the “sovyet” and they are the final building blocks to communism. It is not the role of the Federal government
to be the people’s nanny.
It’s not the role of the Federal government to spend this
nation into oblivion. Pardon me if I do
not get excited about your current budget debate. That drama has outlived itself, and I say let
the government shut down for a while; we might buy a few more days of life for
our Constitution. I am also not
impressed by your resolution on foreign affairs, encouraging “democracies"
in foreign nations, while our republic is being actively destroyed by its own
government.
It is your role, Congress, to stop the Executive
encroachment into the Legislature and it is your duty to stop the Federal
encroachment upon individual Liberty. Our founders took great care when creating a federal government that
would be limited and always in submission to the states and the people. WHEN is Congress going to take a real stand
against the destruction of the rights and privileges of this people? Will you
wait until it’s too late? Mere “outrage” doesn’t get the job done. This Congress is pushing the nation to a point
of turmoil it has not seen for 150 years. And make no mistake; each and every one of you
will be personally responsible for what will occur. Are you prepared to live with that
responsibility and those consequences? It will not fall on the shoulders of the President
alone and the blame game will not alleviate the suffering of our children when
they are so grievously affected. Yet, we
can avoid repeating the mistakes of our history. But we must act now. We must act decisively. If not, we will regret our neglect. We have the opportunity now, but have no
guarantee it will be available much longer.
Does Congress truly understand WHY people fled communist
nations to come to the greatest nation in the world? Do you truly know the cost of such sacrifice
and what you are supposed to be defending? You are fooling yourselves if you think one
more election is going to fix it. You
don’t have that kind of time. The blocks
are in place, and you have provided the mortar. Take a stand now. Not a political
stand, but a stand that involves integrity, courage, and resolve. No more petitions asking the president to
stop stealing legislative power. No more
demands that Eric Holder resign. YOU
must do your job and YOU must defend this nation and it’s Constitution from
these enemies, both foreign and domestic. You must:
1. Put an end to the executive order madness. Exercise your constitutionally given power,
as provided through the checks and balances and separation of powers. Show this nation that you understand that
Legislative power is not to be shared and it is definitely NOT to be taken.
2. We are not subjects of the United Nations and
never intend to be. Get them out of our
business.
3. If you are unwilling to impeach, defund any
person appointed by the executive branch outside Congressional and
Constitutional authority. (i.e. all the
Christmas appointments and Czars)
4. Pick up your Congressional oversight responsibility
and shut down these executive regulatory agencies whose only purpose is to “harass our
people, and eat out their substance.”
5. Get control of the immigration in this
nation. We don’t want to see GAO
reports telling us that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the
State Department cannot agree on the degree of terrorist association a visa
applicant must have to render the applicant ineligible.
6. It is time to indict Eric Holder for the
criminal that he is. No more whining, no more demanding for resignations,
INDICT him and then FIRE him.
7. Impeach Elena Kagan. She is obviously incapable of using the
appropriate professional ethic and judgment needed to be a Supreme Court Justice. Learn from this mistake and actually involve
yourselves in the confirmation process. Your
employers are sick to death of political games.
8. Repeal The Federal Restricted Buildings and
Grounds Improvement Act. Now. You are
supposed to be protecting the rights of the people, not violating them.
9. End the 4th amendment violations
permitted in the Patriot Act. Now.
10. Repeal sections 1021 & 1022 of NDAA 2012.
It’s not only about habeas corpus, it’s about
a. unilateral
power given to the president by congress to determine who is a terrorist and then
detain them in secret with no probable cause;
b. unilateral power given to the president by
congress to invoke the laws of war during a “hostility”;
c. unilateral power given to the president by
congress to transfer the power under the laws of war to “domestic agencies
fighting terrorists”
11. Get the IRS out of the passport business.
12. Don’t just read the Constitution, study it. Not how you studied it in law school, that
wasn’t the Constitution, that was Constitutional Law, there is a huge
difference. Those of you who went to
Harvard, we understand if you don’t know what the Constitution is, it hasn’t
been studied there in years. May I
suggest a course that I know will teach you the truth and is so simple a
Congressman can understand it. I happen
to know the teacher personally and I am sure that she would come teach it at
her own expense and sacrifice. Interested? Click Here.
These are some of the demands of
your employers; we demand you do your job. These are the requirements of our founders; they have entrusted us with
the Liberty purchased with their lives. These are the duties imposed upon you by the Constitution of the United
States, and your obligations consistent with the oaths you took. And, these are the times that try men's
souls. How will history remember us? The generation that participated in death
of Liberty or the generation that gave our last breath to prosper it? I have
made my choice. How will you choose?
Sincerely,
KrisAnne Hall
