With that said, I must share Judge Moore's article here. It is just another one of those "Twilight Zone" moments where everyday, ordinary Americans, like me, can't believe what clueless Congress has done....once again.
Excerpt:
The Democratic leadership forced the package through Congress without allowing for debate and without even giving the opposition sufficient time to read and evaluate the bill. It passed in the United States Congress by a vote of 246-183 in the House, with all Republicans opposed, and 60-38 in the Senate with three moderate Republicans providing crucial support. President Obama signed the bill yesterday. Described as costing $787 billion dollars, the Congressional Budget Office reports the actual cost will be $3.27 trillion dollars, stemming from an estimated $744 billion it will take to pay for the additional debt the legislation will create and $2.527 trillion in increased spending from new and expanded programs spawned by the bill.
Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., said that the legislation was poorly crafted and hastily designed, and that passage of the bill "will mark the day when our generation decided that we were not capable of enduring the consequences of our own actions and therefore future generations must shoulder the burden that we could not find the courage to bear ourselves."
But the threshold question should be, is this legislation constitutional? Article I, Section 8 of our Constitution authorizes Congress to tax and spend only "to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States." Because the Act in question only increases our indebtedness and does virtually nothing for our common defense, we must look at its impact on the "general" welfare. Congress' expenditures must by definition be for the general welfare of our nation as a whole, not the specific welfare of individuals, regions, or certain socio-economic or political groups.
Of course the bill isn't constitutional! But why should that matter? The usurper is suspected of not being constitutionally eligible anyway. Did that matter to Congress?
Excerpt:
An examination of the provisions of the economic stimulus plan reveals that it is pure pork, much of it designed to further left-wing causes. More than $3 billion goes to ACORN, a community organization already under federal investigation for voter registration practices. Thirty million dollars goes to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's district in the San Francisco area to restore wetlands and in part to protect the endangered salt marsh harvest mouse. Then there is $200 million for a designated coal fired power plant in Obama's home state of Illinois, $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts, $200 million to provide computers to community colleges, and over $650 million to help consumers buy digital TV converter boxes. One billion dollars is allocated for educational programs, including courses on sexually transmitted diseases.
This bill has so much pork in it that if the money was spent on food - we could probably hold a luau in every American backyard for an entire year!
Did you see how much is going to ACORN??? And get this... Judge Moore reveals ACORN as "a community organization already under federal investigation for voter registration practices."
HOW DUMB COULD OUR CONGRESS POSSIBLY BE??
HOW AND WHY WOULD THEY ALLOW THAT TO STAY IN THE BILL?
THE RINOS IN THE SENATE SHOULD BE ESPECIALLY ASHAMED!
Judge Moore concludes:
The stimulus plan is more than an assault on our pocketbooks – it is an assault on our Constitution, our freedom and our faith.
Obama did [Christine: usurp the presidency] win. But with his first proposal, the American people lost.

RE: "Obama is not eligible to be POTUS (if, in fact, his real father is Obama Sr. as he claims)."
Proof, sir?
As in the kind of proof Martin Luther insisted was our Christian Standard, which was that if we knew something to be true (rather than merely talk radio talking points, or hearsay), then we should be able to prove it, under oath, in a court of law.
When will you file your landmark case, since you're so certain? Never mind that others have failed: you, as a Christian, have stated this with unequivocal, absolute certainty, so certainly you can prove it, correct?
"You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor." - G-d, in Exodus 20:16
"Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." - Jesus, in Matthew 5:19
Both the Democrats and GOP are equally guilty in what they have done to our country.
It’s Not Our National Debt!
Join the Washington National Debt Revolt - Washington has bailed out the banks, Wall Street & their Washington special interests and much of the cost is added to the national debt to by paid by this and future generations while real estate and investments continue to fall.

What is it about the word "IF" you don't understand?
Like I have stated elsewhere on this blog, many people are wondering why Obama will not release the following records so that the TRUTH about his past will be known by the American people:
Can you tell me why Obama will not reveal the following information about his past?
Mr. Barack Hussein Obama -
The American People want to know, who sent you?
Obama has lived for 48 years without leaving any footprints -- none! There is no Obama documentation -- no records -- no paper trail -- none -- this can't be an accident.
Original, vault copy birth certificate -- Not released
Certificate of Live Birth -- Released -- Counterfeit
Obama/Dunham marriage license -- Not released
Soetoro/Dunham marriage license -- Not released
Soetoro adoption records -- Not released
Fransiskus Assisi School School application -- Released
Punahou School records -- Not released
Selective Service Registration -- Released -- Counterfeit
Occidental College records -- Not released
Passport (Pakistan) -- Not released
Columbia College records -- Not released
Columbia thesis -- Not released
Harvard College records -- Not released
Harvard Law Review articles -- None (maybe 1, unsigned?)
Baptism certificate -- None
Medical records -- Not released
Illinois State Senate records -- None
Illinois State Senate schedule -- Lost
Law practice client list -- Not released
University of Chicago scholarly articles -- None
Many people have speculated that perhaps Obama's father was not Obama Sr. - but he just took his name because his mother married him. It's not like such things don't happen every day in America.
However, because of the fact that Obama was later adopted by Lolo Soetoro and taken to Indonesia for several years - even IF his biological father was NOT Obama Sr. there is still a chance that Obama Jr. lost his U.S. Citizenship when he was moved and enrolled in an Indonesian school. Indonesia does not allow dual citizenship!
There are just too many questions surrounding Obama's secrecy about his past. I (and many other Americans) find this highly suspicious and very disturbing.

I don't usually visit Facebook sites. But thanks for stopping by and sharing the link and your thoughts. Sounds like a very difficult goal (and would be GREAT if it happened) - to "cancel the National Debt." However, I don't have any confidence in our government officials and/or judges anymore. We can't even get a judge to follow the Constitution and demand proof of Obama's eligibility for POTUS! I doubt that the national debt cancelation goal would ever happen, either.
