One Angry Taxpayer, Ken Lowder's Blog
Howdy all, 

Welcome to my bio and blog! I'm Kenneth Lowder from Baytown, Tx.  Please call me Ken.

I've been married for 29 years to this 'perrty' woman I found in Hawaii.  At the time I was stationed in Hawaii with The United States Coast Guard. I served in Hawaii, New Jersey/Philadelphia, California, and here in Texas.  I have since retired from the USCG after twenty years of service. I am now a Texas registered paramedic.  I currently work in a local hospital er.  I was born 50 some years ago, in California, much to my surprise.  My folks were good enough to fix that California problem and move to Phoenix, Az, where I grew up until I joined the Coast Guard.

On my free time you may find me gardening, riding my motorcycle, shooting, or surfing the net on my Apple computer. We have two kids, who are grown and out of the house.  I have two dawgs to keep us company at the house.

I am the founder of oneangrytaxpayer.org.   Why?  Cause I want this country to survive and thrive!

God Bless you, God bless Texas, And God save the United States!

Ken Lowder, One Angry Taxpayer
Constitution Party

Call it what it is, TREASON.

Some folks would call it treason.  I'm one of them.  What is this treason you ask?  It's the National Defense Authorization Act that was signed into law by president barack obama.  This is the law that allows the military to detain US citizens indefinitely as terrorist or supporters of terrorist.  What exactly is a terrorist or what supports terrorist is very vaguely defined.  That vague term in times gone past would be unconstitutional, but those days are long gone.  It should be noted that when a few of our reps tried to put forth amendments that fully excluded US citizens those amendments were SOUNDLY defeated by both parties.

Section 1021 requires military detainment of al quaida, taliban, associated forces, and any and all 'supporters'.  Section 1022 exempts the requirement for US citizens but does not exclude it, its just optional.  Both sections cover all of the United States as part of the war zone against terrorist.

The most chilling part that all of us must consider is this administrations definition of a domestic terrorist.  If you meet any of these definitions this administration may just consider you a domestic terrorist as they have repeatedly stated over the years.  White, Christian, male, ex-military, conservative, libertarian, constitution supporting, limited government supporting, anti-irs, second amendment supporting, gun loving, anti obama, birther, and the list goes on.  As you can see its quite easy to get on the terrorist list.  Are you on the no fly list?  Try to fly and you just may appear in their camps under military guard.  Don't submit or object to the TSA touch and feel you could find yourself detained.  Makes you feel warm and fuzzy doesn't it?

Probably the most ugly part of all this was the overwhelming bipartisan support this bill had.  The majority of both parties voted in favor of this bill, and as I have stated soundly defeated any amendments to this treason.  Yes, it's treason committed by our CONgressional reps. against the Constitution of the United States of America.  To those who voted for these reps in spite of any past  problems they had with their voting records, but they were republicans, hows that working out right now?   As I have said before voting for the lesser of two evils IS voting for evil. 

Constitutional TREASON is set forth in article III, section 3 as:  Treason against the United states, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.  No person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.

So how is this act treason?  It willfully violates our constitutional right to a trial by jury and our right to a speedy trial.  Under these rule you can be held forever without trial or charges until the war is over.  If you get a trial it will be by a military tribunal, not by a jury.  Right to see the evidence and witnesses against you?  Sorry, national security won't allow it.  NOTHING in the Constitution allows congress to deny you your rights, NOTHING!  The only way to change our right is by the amendment process, PERIOD!

This is why it's treason against US citizens and their oaths to protect, defend, and obey the Constitution of the United States.  Their vote is recorded in the congressional record and witnessed by their fellow congresspersons.  The president signed the bill so his signature on the bill condemns him as well as the folks who witnessed him signing the bill.  Add his signing statement where he 'promises' not to use the offending sections and you get a clear admission of these parts meaning.

So what do we do?  It's clear that talking to our CONgress critters is useless.  First of all we need to support anyone running against the traitors.  Let the party heads know that these folks are toast.  Let them know that voting party line is dead.  That's right folks, time to abandon the GOP as they support these establishment traitors.  If there's a third party that you can support, then get on that band wagon whole hog.  NO MORE VOTING FOR THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS EVER AGAIN!  If that's the choice that you have then just refuse to vote.  They can't say that they have the consent of the governed if the majority of us refuse to vote for them. 

I am taking the public stand against them stating that they have committed treason.  I'm sending all of my reps and president obama notices demanding that they resign.  I am refusing to submit to federal laws until they are gone and these offending laws are repealed by their replacements.  On my blog you will find a PDF that you can send to your offending CONgressional reps and the president if you agree.  Just print it out on a Avery postcard blank, address it to your critter, and send it to them.  You can also find it on me home page, oneangrytaxpayer.org.

It's that easy and they can't ignore it.  Bring it on baby!

Time to get past talking and push back!

So we have been talking, protesting, calling, and writing for months now. Are the politicians listening? Yes they are and many are running scared. The GOP claims to have seen the light, but we have heard this before. Even now they can't hold their members in line to keep a radical socialist off of the Supreme Court.

The Republicans claim that they will overturn the socialist agenda if we just vote in the GOP back into power. Again we have heard this before. Even if the GOP takes over the House, which is a good possibility, so what? Maybe on the outside chance they get a stronger presence in the senate will it change anything really? At best only to a limited degree. It may slow down the march to socialism. The party of socialism lite, otherwise known as fascism, even in the best case will not have the votes to overturn the bills that have passed. Should the communist in the democratic party unite in fear with the fascist of the Republican party and overturn these unconstitutional laws, the chances of overriding a presidential vote or executive order are nil. You can bet that that reason alone will represent a great opportunity for the fascist party (GOP) to exploit for political reason in 2012.

This election we need to focus our rage razor sharp if we want to turn it around in 2012. This fall vote out ALL incumbents regardless of party. BOTH parties, the communist democrats, and the fascist republicans are both responsible for passing these unconstitutional laws over the years that have dragged this great nation down. Both in the face of our wrath and disgust say that they have gotten the message. The evil socialist say that they will slow down, The lesser of two evils party say that they have changed. When pigs where lipstick and fly! Most members of congress have been there a long time. That is the problem and they are not any part of the solution. If we revolt and throw out as many incumbents as we can we will send a message throughout the halls of Washington DC. It will also send a message to the productive members of this country that we can change Washington. We will tell them that we don't have to accept more burdens on our God given freedoms and our wallets.

Know that this will just be the start of the real fight for America. The unproductive members of society will see this change in the wind too. It will be a big threat to their cushy way of life. The communist democratic party and the fascist republican party will exploit their fear to the max for their political gain. They will sing campaign promises of 'vote for me to save your benefit rights' that keep us economically enslaved now. Yes it will be THE real fight.

So this election chose. Chose continued economic slavery, or chose to fight for your God given freedoms. The time to chose is now. Chose freedom.

Ken

Ps, communism: All power the economy and production placed in the hands of the government. Fascism: government controls economy and most means of production, but not necessarily owns it. Please explain to me why this doesn't define our two current ruling parties. Ken@oneangrytaxpayer.org

Ok, Lets focus here.

It's the Constitution stupid! Is that clear enough?

It's the Constitution on which our country was founded. It's the Constitution in which our God given rights and freedoms are enshrined. It's our Constitution which makes us such a great nation. So great that millions will risk whatever they can do to get here. It's our Constitution that defines us as a people. It's our Constitution that drives evil liberal socialist crazy!

It drives the socialist crazy because it really limits their power. This 200+ year old document, based on our founders belief in a book thousands of years old, gives way to much freedom and power to the individual for their all knowing liking. If they are restrained by the Constitution, they cannot 'lead' us to the 'Greatness of Humanity' 'unchained from the shackles of religion'.

The fact that this belief and this Constitution has brought untold wealth, prosperity, liberty and freedom to us and the world is irrelevant. The fact that socialism has failed all over the world with poverty, pain, hunger, slavery, and death is also irrelevant.

They strive to bring Heaven on earth, but only create hell on earth.

We need to focus ourselves back to our God and back to the Constitution of the United States. We need to focus returning our government to the limits of the Constitution, so we can once again enjoy its freedoms and return to our prosperity.

The 2010 elections are almost upon us. This will be where we STOP! the slide into the pits of fascism or outright communism. 2012 will follow soon after and we can turn this tide of evil back for good.

Vote only this fall for Constitution supporting candidates. Vote out the old incumbent blood that has caused this disaster. Let your voices be heard with a resounding shout or prepare to be silent forever.

Ok, the federal government is going to sue Arizona.

So the feds and obuma are going to sue the state of Arizona for enforcing federal law on a state level. Maybe it's because Arizona also added more and better civil right protections than federal law? We all know how the federal government hates competition.

How much more plain can this administration make it that they will not enforce federal immigration laws? If they will not enforce our laws that they create, why should we obey any laws that they write? This is a line that they have crossed in their corruption and it's time to tell them to buzz off. I'll say it here and now, you no longer have any force of law that you can use against me. No federal law has any authority over me or the free people of the United States. Your willful failure to treat us all as equal under the law overturns the laws and your authority.

You, Barrak Obama and you, the Congress of the United States, have failed in your most important duty. It is your foremost job to protect the sovereignty of the United States of American and protect its citizens from harm. By not enforcing our border laws you are willfully permitting the invasion by criminals and terrorist into the US. The lives of our fellow citizens lost and their blood spilled is on your hands. The property stolen and the treasury robbed is your fault. You are all not part of the solution, but your corrupt criminal supporting acts are the problem.

Your refusal to enforce the immigration laws until immigration reform passes only shows that you are doing this as a political football. You are holding our lives and property as hostage to your political agenda. This is just plain evil, repulsive, and un-american.

There are now reports that obuma intends to solve this problem by use of a presidential pardon or executive order. Since congress is balking at passing his version of immigration reform he will just make them totally irrelevant. Who needs lawmakers as a rubber stamp when the king obuma can just make a decree?

You, Barrak Obama, your bureaucrats, and the liberal democrats, indeed the whole of congress are ordered to vacate your offices. Your willful acts against the laws of this nation, your oaths of office, and it's citizens make you all unfit to serve. If you are campaigning for office in 2010 you should save your money for your immediate retirement.

This free American taxpayer will no longer obey you and your evil kind. I call on all Free Americans to do the same.

It all comes back to obeying the Constitution or not.

How can our leaders have any claim to legitimacy when they so blatantly refuse to obey and follow the Constitution? When they refuse to fulfill the laws of our nation and publicly condemn those who do, are we morally and legally required to follow them? When they show their disrespect and disdain for the laws of our nation they show that they are not leaders but rulers.

A case in point is the recent brouhaha over the Arizona illegal immigrant law. This law is a mirror of federal law brought down to a local level of enforcement. It even goes farther than federal law in that it makes racial profiling illegal and punishable under the law. Being typical Washington DC politicians, they have voiced strong opposition to the law without having read the bill. Given that the bill is only ten pages long, not thousands like a federal bill, it only proves that these politicians are illiterate. Not content with criticizing the law they invited a corrupt leader, from a failed narco state, to come to Washington DC and lecture us from the podium in the capitol building. The head of ICE has publicly stated that his agency, the one charged with enforcing immigration laws, may not deport any illegals that are caught by Arizona law enforcement officials.

Then there is the second amendment issue. Obuma has stated that he is not going to take our guns away. That is the truth, sort of. It's the U.N. that going to do that under the small arms treaty that Hillary signed on behalf of the United States. Once the advise and consent requirement is passed by the US Senate, obuma can can say it's not him taking our rights away, but the UN requirements. The fact that as president he ordered and authorized Hillary to sign it is irrelevant.

The most recent scandal of our ruling class is the attempt by this administration to buy off political opponents with offers of cushy federal jobs. At least two candidates for high office were offered jobs to resign from a race so that the administration favored candidates would win the primary and hopefully be re-elected. This, of coarse violates the law regarding interfering with an election. Given the mood of the public regarding incumbents, this kind corruption will only backfire and may rise to the level of an impeachable event.

Lastly there is the fine example put up by the ruling class on not paying their taxes. It never ceases to amaze me how many government officials are caught not paying their fair share. You know about that fair share thing. The one that if we don't pay we go to jail. These millionaires get off with a small fine and they have to pay the back taxes. They then go back to business as usual. We the little folk of coarse get a chance to live off the government dole in Leavenworth prison for the same offense. So much for equal protection under the law.

The willful failure of our leaders to obey and follow the Constitution is why our nation is in so much danger, both from within and without. Protecting the lives and property of American citizens is the first and foremost duty of the government. Signing away our personal inalienable rights is not something that either the congress or the president has the right or authority to do. Trying to do an end run around the Constitution to do that is just plain TREASON!

It is time, Mr. and Mrs. America, to change how this game is played. If your elected official won't obey the Constitution, then it's time to demand that they depart. If they will not go peacefully then we must drag them out kicking and screaming. If they want to be our leaders then they must lead by example and obey the Constitution of the United Stated and our laws. All unconstitutional laws must be repealed and the government returned to it's constitutional limits. Treaties that violate our personal inalienable right must be declared null and void.

When we go to the polls this year we need to drive out those who have shown their scorn for the Constitution regardless of their party affiliation. We need to reject party loyalty and give our loyalty to those who support and obey the Constitution of the United States of America. This is the path back to a strong and free America.

Why should we obey federal laws?

If the federal government refuses to enforce the federal immigration laws, why should ANY federal laws be obeyed? What is the point of having any laws if they are ignored or selectively enforced at the governments whim? If the laws of our land are indeed selectively enforced doesn't that violate our most sacred legal precept, Equal Protection under the Law?

Obuma and his administration have repeatedly refused to enforce our immigration laws which resulted in Arizona coming up with their new law, which mirrors federal law. When it comes to equal protection it even goes farther in protecting against racial profiling, the most common complaint from the liberal left. Obuma has ordered his Justice Department to conduct a review as to the constitutionality of the new law. When questioned about it by Congressman Ted Poe, R-TX, Attorney General Holder admitted that he did not know what the bill said as he had not read it. This is an all to common thing with DC politicians and bureaucrats. High ICE officials in the obuma administration are now saying that they may not process any of the illegal criminals that are brought in by the local Arizona Police. If ICE is not going to enforce the law when these criminal are just handed to them, What's the point?

The President now wants to know what went wrong on the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. He has appointed a commission to see if we need new laws or were our laws just not enforced. I would speculate that the laws were not enforced as that seems to be the modus operendi of the government regulators. That is unless the blowout was just an accident due to an unexpected and uncontrollable release of methane hydrate. It should also be pointed that the lead agency for enforcing these laws, The United States Coast Guard, has seen its budget cut and may lose 3000 jobs this year alone. The point is what good will any new laws be if the government, regardless of which party is in charge, just ignores them at their whim?

Now I see some communities are issuing 'ID Cards' to any and all who wants one no questions asked. A community organizer on Fox News 'Maria Jurga' stated that it was to show solidarity with the illegal community. She and others like her are encouraging her fellow citizens to get these cards too to support the illegal community. I have spoken on this before about those who support the illegal community. These folks are criminals before and after the fact. These supporters are now a whole lot easier to identify. They now have their own community ID card. All that needs to be done is get a warrant and seize their computer data base and pick them up.

By the time this is posted to my blog I will have contacted my three congressional critters from Texas. I will demand to know why I should obey any federal laws. I have already made out my w-4 to the max allowed by law. You should do this too. Come next April 15th I will have to pay some instead of giving them an interest free loan. Knowing the way that things are going down the tubes we might not get the excess back. I am not going to obey healthcare reform, cap and tax, or give up my God or guns. I will demand that they grant me amnesty instead.

It's time to stop following their rules. Its time to make our own rules.

Is there really a difference?

Is there really a difference between the democratic party and the republican party anymore? It gets harder to tell every day. The GOP seems to move closer to the left of just folds under democrats criticism a little more each day.

The other senator from Arizona, Jon Kyl, was on face the nation the other day talking about obuma's latest pick for the Supreme Court of the US, Elena Kagan. During this interview he showed that he really had very little information on her background and core far left liberal beliefs. As usual he came off to me a an unknowing politician from washington dc. He ended the interview by stating that a filibuster was off the table. Folks we can now concede that this nominee will get voted in as the most powerful way of stopping her has been withdrawn. All the democrats had to do during the Bush years was say that they were filibustering something and it was all over. It didn't matter if it was a bill or a judicial nomination being considered it was gone. You would think that by now the republicans in congress would show a little spine but you would be mistaken.

Here in Texas the Trans Texas Corridor has been resurrected from the dead again. Governor Rick Perry has said that he will wait and see if its going to be funded by the federal government. If it is then he will have to ok it as it's mandated to spend the funds by law. SO he really doesn't want to do this but if the feds say he must he will. Where have I recently been hearing something similar to this? It had to do with something about a threat to one of our inalienable rights. I remember now! Obuma stated that he wasn't going to overturn the second amendment and take our guns away. Instead the UN is going to do that! Billary just signed the treaty on small arms and now it goes senate for their required advise and consent. Since the treaty bans civilian small arms the government will be required to confiscate them, all in the name of UN compliance, not US law or obuma's desire to ban guns in the hands of citizens. Based on the republicans history do you really think that they will stand up for this fight?

The senate has been working on a new bill for regulating wall street. Harry Reid attempted a vote to close debate and it was voted down. After the usual back room, behind the scenes arm twisting it was brought to a vote again and this time it passed without any new amendments. How was this done you might ask? Scott Brown, (R-Mass) changed his vote. I'm sure we will soon learn just what his quid pro quo was.

Then there is the Arizona law on illegal immigration. A few, no maybe a couple, ok one republican grilled Attorney General Holder on the threat that he made of taking Arizona to court over this bill. When asked Holder stated that he had not read the 18 page bill, so he wasn't sure what was in it. First of all why is reading a bill relevant? That is just not the way things are done in washington dc, but I digress. Has the GOP called for his firing? I think not. Will they? I think not.

If after all the outrage against incumbents and this leap off the cliff into socialism I can only conclude that the GOP is for it in the long run or they would at least try to put a stop to it. Folks, they are not even trying to fake it any more. I'm not even going to call them the lesser of two evils anymore.

Voting for either party based on what party they are is just voting for evil. Both parties just want the power over every aspect of our daily lives and will say and do whatever they must to accomplish these ends. One party is just trying to do it faster than the other party. As a Friend of mine puts it on his blog,'The Only Way To Deal With An Unfree World Is To Become So Absolutely Free That Your Very Existence Is An Act Of Rebellion!'. I will only vote for and support politicians that support my core beliefs. Those are God, A strong FREE and safe America, and liberty and the rights of its citizens to be free of government nanny state intrusion. I WILL hold any and all politicians feet to the fire for violating my beliefs and my God given inalienable right.

Let the boycotts begin!

The socialist fringe of the liberal democratic party are calling for a boycott of all things Arizona. This is because Arizona had the audacity to make a law enforcing federal immigration law by making it a state law that can be enforced by local police. It also makes it illegal for cities to be 'sanctuary cities'. I say lets boycott all things that are supporting the criminal activity of illegal immigration! When you do this make sure you call it what it is 'willful support of criminal activity'.

This is exactly what it is, criminal support of criminal activity. Both before and after the fact. By agitating for these 'rights' to be here in the Unites States without permission, the criminal element encourages their fellow criminals to illegally enter the US.

One way that they do this is by using the lie that these are 'honest hard working migrants filling jobs that americans don't want to do'. The real truth about this is that americans won't do these jobs for the wages that are being paid. These illegal immigrants are willing to be paid less and be paid off the books. This deprives honest hard working americans a decent wage and robs the treasury of income, social security, and medicare taxes. Employers who hire these criminals become criminals themselves in the process. The hiring of these criminals also is proven wrong on the rare attempts at immigration enforcement. Just look back at the long lines of legal workers who flooded the Perdue chicken processing plant and the Shipley's donut shops. Thousands lined up for a few hundred well paying LEGAL jobs. This has been seen all over the country. In reality the illegals provide cheap labor and keep wages artificially low.

These folks also don't buy insurance for their health or their vehicles. When they get sick they can't go to a doctor where they have to pay cash up front. Instead the flood our emergency rooms and hospitals. They then leave without paying their bills and without any intention of doing so. They are safe now from deportation due to their anchor baby that they have here too. We won't even talk about the social services that they now qualify for with these anchor babies. This has led to the closure of hospitals with the loss of jobs to RN's, Doctors and support staff. This of coarse leads to more loss to our treasury in taxes and increased cost for unemployment insurance. Our insurance rates also rise to cover these losses in medical insurance and auto insurance.

Then of coarse there are those who commit crimes beyond the crime of entering the US illegally. These violent folks fill our jail cells for the crimes like, robbery, burglary, rape, assault, importing and selling drugs, and murder. The blood spilled from these crimes and the loss of life and property need to be placed squarely on the heads and hands of those who aid and abet, or support illegal immigration.

The corruption of those who support these criminals aliens infects all areas of our society. It doesn't matter if it's corrupt employers who hire them. The corrupt politicians who refuse to protect our borders, enforce our laws and the Constitution. The corrupt citizens who hide and care for them. Or, the corrupt governments that use our porous as an escape valve so they don't have to fix their problems at home. All of them are morally, ethically responsible for the criminal acts committed by these illegal invaders.

This corruption is why Arizona passed it's recent law. Now corrupt groups, politicians, employers, and others are calling for a boycott of all things Arizona. If you support these un-american activities, then go ahead and boycott to your evil hearts content. If, on the other hand, you support law and order, and the American way of life, then lets boycott those corrupt organizations who support this criminal activity. Make sure you tell them that you are doing this and why. Let them know loud and clear that this is a crime and that they are criminals. Let your political representatives know know that you will not be voting for them due to their corruption, and their refusal to uphold our Constitution and laws. Ask the corrupt politicians why we should obey any of the laws that they pass if they only selectively enforce our laws?

If they are not going to uphold their oaths of office, or listen to us, the electorate, why should we listen to them and obey their laws? Is that right and just that we should? It's right that we should be demand amnesty too, right?

and the issue is?

What is the issue that we all can rally around? Is it healthcare? Guns? Taxes? Spending? The IRS? Corrupt politicians? etc, etc, etc. Folks, how can we become a force to be reckoned with if we are all over the map on the issues? Please remember that these folks in washington have very short attention spans. If you can't get to the point and/or you don't have a pocket full of cash they won't hear you. These elected officials can not even read the bills that they are passing.

How about this, The Constitution of the United States! Lets rally around that ignored, abused, tattered, and most important document we have next to the Bible. Lets tell our politicians to stand by and follow the Constitution and its limitations or we will limit them right into jail or worse. This current crop of politicians has led this nation to the brink of failure and they all must go.

If we are lucky we may see a election in 2010. We need to elect new representatives. The entire House of Representatives is up for re-election. They all need to go by their primaries. None of them are fit to return. Many will say that they have voted against these bills that have the public so outraged. So what! The Cap and Trade bill passed the house with a bare majority. If it hadn't been eight RINO's from the GOP it wouldn't have passed at all. Had any of the so called conservatives stood up on their hind legs and filibustered the bill it would not have even come to a vote.

This lack of a spine is why they all must go. As of right now 57% of americans polled think no one should be re-elected. 57%! Lets push to bring this to around 80% by election time! We currently have these politicians to scared to face us at an unrestricted town hall meetings. Lets make them to scared to run in the next election.

Look for, find and support candidates who will support and defend the Constitution of the United States. Don't listen to our current politicians who say that they have gotten the message. We have all heard that lie before. Time is short as the filing deadlines are rapidly approaching. Tell the party that you support that you are leaving until they get someone else to run as you will not vote for an incumbent. Get off the couch and register to vote. Register with a third party so the GOP can see the lose of support.

Rally around the Constitution of the United States and its limitations on our government. This is how we can restore our country and our way of life. Join me in catching the Constitution Flu to help get the message to washington.
