Mark Lowry slams "China" Mitch McConnell.

"June 1, 2007
"Quisling “China” Mitch, arrogant God Father of Political Pacs and the Republican Party has good reason to believe he can betray America, its citizens and get away with it. He’s done it for decades. China Mitch is the head of the elected officials corruption snake that is now trained on amnesty to destroy America. He does it because he can.
The Constitution in Article 2 section 3 originally stated: “The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, [chosen by the Legislature thereof,]... Founding fathers specifically designed the constitution to prevent lobbyists and wealthy elite special interest groups from controlling senatorial elections and subsequently the government.
The 1913 17th amendment eliminated legislative senator selection and said: “The Senate …shall be composed of two senators from each State, elected by the people thereof….” It was a lot easier to buy off a controlling interest in the senate by purchasing only 60 senators than it was to payoff 50 state legislatures.
The 1913 16th amendment altered power of the people to control government finances by creating the income tax and subsequent internal revenue service to finance the banking industry. Immediately after these two amendments were adopted congress legislatively caved into banking industry demands and created the Federal Reserve a Non Governmental Entity granted powers to create money a constitutional duty of congress.
These dramatic Constitutional changes permitted wealthy banking and finance industry lobbyists to usurp authority of the people, control senatorial elections and the United States government. It allowed wealthy elite to saddle the nation with debt paid to the banking industry in perpetuity. WE the citizen taxpayers were relegated to financial servitude to the elite once again, the one thing the founding fathers worked to prevent. Financial scandals, depressions and recessions have accompanied this take over ever since making wealthy financiers wealthier with our money.
Many rightfully argue the amendments, income tax, internal revenue service and Federal Reserve legislation is unconstitutional. The elite has gone to great lengths to conceal this information and label those who raise the issue as wacko conspiracy theory nuts. Every effort to correct this egregious wrong leveled against our constitution is fought with all power the elite could muster. They will not relinquish control of our government without a fight and our corrupt elected officials have no desire to return control of the government back to the people. They get more money by representing the elite.
Judicially defined “corporate free speech” permits more corruption and transfer of power to corporations. Their freedom of speech is expressed with in the form of monetary donations to selected candidates and causes that continue to erode American sovereignty and deprive us of freedom. 300 million citizen votes will not offset the votes of a few international corporations. Corporate monetary free speech created a nation of, by and for the corporate elite.
China Mitch astutely recognized the power was not with the people and has exploited wealthy corporate elite power from the first time he entered politics. He is now the money guru for controlling government and defining the future course of the Corporate Nation.
China Mitch’s record of campaign fund solicitations from well rewarded lobbyists who unabashedly exercise free speech rights to buy candidates and desired legislative outcomes; provide the best argument for repeal of the 16th and 17th amendments and return control of our government to the people. The government is a taxpayer funded ATM for international corporations, financial organizations and wealthy individuals that control our crooked elected officials.
Our corrupt politicians owe loyalty only to elite special interest groups and arrogantly display contempt for lowly American citizens while they pay off their real bosses, K Street wealthy elite lobbyists, with our taxes. They laugh off any attempt by the people to have them comply with what remains of our tattered constitution and our will.
WE, as a nation, must address failed systems that permit corruption of elected officials and demand reinstatement of original constitutional provisions that prevents behavior exhibited by McConnell and others of both parties. This crisis of elected official corruption and betrayal of America in favor of corporate elites is destroying our constitutionally guaranteed republican form of government.
The current debate over amnesty for 40 million illegal alien invaders exposed this crisis and the head of the government corruption snake, China Mitch, like no other scandal has. The American people will win this decisive battle against amnesty and defeat treasonous elected officials doing the bidding of special interest groups. Failure is not an option. America will cease to exist if China Mitch and his gang are successful.
WE citizens of America are taking back legislative chambers of our government from Washington DC, to hometown city halls. It is over China Mitch, you are gonna be ditched.
There will be no amnesty now or ever. American citizens have spoken. It is now our job to remove corrupt elected official gang members who tried to destroy America. Once they are defeated, disgraced and brought to justice, others will do their constitutional duty and correct the changes made in the constitution to resurrect the government of by and for the people.

Please understand there are many like China Mitch ready to take his place if we don’t get the constitution changed back to its original state.
Item one: Email summary of nefarious deals from China Mitch’s AIG insurance company partner Mr. Hank Greenberg, and money man Henry Kissinger.
America is $9 Trillion dollars in debt; China owns $400 billion of our IOU’s and has $1 TRILLION in the bank, in cash. Our corporations keep going overseas, along with our jobs. Don’t be around when China Mitch comes down. We will find someone to run against him and win.
McConnell backer*Greenberg and AIG, through its employee PAC, also have donated thousands
of dollars to Chao's husband, Sen. Mitch McConnell, federal records show. The Kentucky Republican happens to be one of Capitol Hill's biggest China boosters. He lobbied hard for permanent normal trade.
So did AIG. It led a multimillion-dollar ad blitz to help pass last year's trade bill with China. Together with five other corporate giants, the $26 billion-in-sales American International Group formed the Business Coalition for U.S.-China Trade, which took out full-page ads in major newspapers in
favor of the bill. Also, the insurer took the lead in forming the U.S.-China Education Foundation to help spin the press on the benefits of open trade with China.
AIG, with offices in Shanghai, is a major client of Henry A. Kissinger, who has gotten rich as a paid consultant for U.S. companies seeking greater access to China. Kissinger is close to Greenberg, former head of the U.S.-China Business Council, a pro-China lobby group.
"Hank Greenberg is Kissinger's money bags," said Hill aide, who asked not to be named.
*'Kissinger's money bags'*
McConnell and Greenberg also appear to be close. The senator has given paid speeches for AIG, and has stepped in on its behalf in federal disputes. In 1987, for example, McConnell tried to spare AIG from having to pay claims on the $200 million policy it underwrote for the U.S. Embassy in Moscow. The bugged building had to be rebuilt. Also, McConnell and Chao attended a White House dinner with Greenberg in 1994.
Like Chao, Greenberg was one of the "Bush Pioneers," responsible for raising more than $100,000 for the president-elect's campaign. Bush's father, one-time U.S. ambassador to China, took the insurance magnate along with him on his '92 trade mission to Asia.
Leveraging politicians to drum up overseas business is one thing. But why would an insurance executive get involved in national security policy at an influential think tank? "Because his benefactors in Beijing more than likely told him he'd be wise to oppose American national security if he wants to keep selling
insurance policies out of Shanghai," the congressional aide said. "That's the way the communists do 'business.' " After Greenberg's '92 Asian trip, American International Group became
the first foreign company allowed to sell insurance in China.

Item Number Two Article from WorldNetDaily, China dissident Wu concerned over China Mitch’s wife’s appointment to Labor Department Secretary by Bush.

CHANGING OF THE GUARD
Dissident Wu 'very surprised' at Chao pick Worried about her personal 'business relationship with communist China'Posted: January 17, 2001 1:00 a.m. Eastern By Paul Sperry © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com
Chinese dissident Hongda "Harry" Wu says he's "very surprised" President-elect Bush tapped Elaine Chao to be Labor Department secretary, given her apparent business conflicts.
"I worry about Elaine Chao's business relationship with communist China," he told WorldNetDaily. "This woman has a significant shipping business through her father." James S.C. Chao is chairman and chief executive of New York-based Foremost Maritime Corp., which ships goods to China and also buys ships from the China State Shipbuilding Corporation.
Chao's ties to Chinese President Jiang Zemin run deep. The two were classmates at Jiao Tong University in Shanghai and have kept in touch ever since. When Jiang visited the White House in 1997, he met privately for about 20 minutes with Elaine Chao, along with McConnell, before an elaborate state dinner for Jiang hosted by President Clinton. The Kentucky senator met again with Jiang the next morning.
"He was trying to emphasize that the U.S. and China are natural friends, and their futures are intertwined, and that they should try to understand each other," Chao said in describing her talk with Jiang.
Chao has lobbied for normalized trade with China and has downplayed concerns about China's growing military threat and espionage campaign here. In military writings, Chinese army leaders have targeted the U.S. as enemy No. 1. They've also recently formed a military alliance with Russia.
Wu, a Hoover Institution fellow, criticizes Chao for glossing over the fact that China is still run by communist hard-liners, who pump proceeds from U.S. trade back into military front companies run by a privileged class. A prominent human rights activist, Wu spent about two decades in Chinese prisons for his political views.
"I'm very surprised Bush would pick her to head Labor, especially when most of the profits from trade with China goes into the pockets of socialist leaders, not workers," Wu said.
Both Chao and McConnell, however, serve on the board of the China Foundation, a non-profit charity devoted to helping develop rural parts of China.
According to the Office of Personnel Management, the standard government questionnaire Chao must fill out for the secretary's job requires that she disclose:
•The citizenship of her relatives;
•All foreign property, business connections and financial interests;
•Contacts with foreign governments, other than those made on official U.S. government business;
•All active passports issued by foreign governments over the past seven years; and
•A list of all foreign countries visited over the past seven years, excluding those visited on official government travel.

21. MCCONNELL SEES GOP VICTORIES IN KENTUCKY (Lowry added: China Mitch bought another election with our tax money)
Steve Lannen Central Kentucky Bureau
GEORGETOWN -- Despite challenges from the Democrats and a sour mood among voters, U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell predicts victory for state Republicans next week.
"In Kentucky we're going to win the state Senate, stay roughly where we are in the state House and re-elect our Republican congressmen. If there's something going on out there, I don't think it's going to happen here," the Louisville Republican told reporters after...

WASHINGTON -- Sen. Mitch McConnell is famously close-lipped, but not with Gordon Hunter Bates.
Barbara Kucera, a University of Kentucky researcher, occasionally talks to Bates about millions of federal dollars McConnell is steering toward a project she shares with Louisville company eCavern. But until a reporter told her, Kucera had no idea Bates is a lobbyist and eCavern is his client. Based on his inside reports, she said, "I thought he was on the senator's...

John Cheves, Herald-Leader Staff Writer
WASHINGTON -- Kentucky farmers needed help from Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., three years ago as Congress debated a buyout of their government tobacco quotas.
The farmers ended up with the perfect lobbyist to present their case: Gordon Hunter Bates, McConnell's recently departed chief of staff and campaign manager, just getting his start in the private sector. They signed up as clients of the brand-new Bates Capitol Group, a small firm Bates opened after he was disqualified from...

WASHINGTON -- Millionaire coal magnate Bob Murray knew the name to drop in September 2002, when Mine Safety Health Administration inspectors confronted him about safety problems at his mines: Sen. Mitch McConnell.
Murray, a large man with a fierce temper, is a huge donor to Republican senators. McConnell, R-Ky., rose through the ranks by raising money for those senators. And McConnell is married to Labor Secretary Elaine Chao, whose agency oversees MSHA. Shouting at a table full of MSHA...

WASHINGTON -- When Sen. Mitch McConnell married Elaine Chao in 1993, he got more than a wife -- he got a river of campaign donations from her family and friends in the Chinese-American business community.
Some people think that might affect his views on China, the world's other superpower. Eight days after the Tiananmen Square massacre in 1989, where China's communist regime crushed a nascent democracy movement, McConnell collected his first $8,000 from the...

WASHINGTON -- The pharmaceutical industry needed a friendly senator in 1999, and it was willing to talk money.
Senate Democrats were pushing universal prescription drug coverage for senior citizens -- including a provision to let Medicare negotiate for cheaper prices. Drug companies wanted to stop them.

WASHINGTON -- In the early 1970s, Addison Mitchell McConnell Jr., a young and intense Republican lawyer, strode into the political science class he taught at the University of Louisville.
He didn't introduce himself to his students. He went straight to the chalkboard and scribbled. "I am going to teach you the three things you need to build a political party," he said, and backed away to reveal the words: "Money, money, money."

Ditch Mitch, Ditch Hal, 3490 U.S. Military Dead is too many.

Ditch Mitch. Ditch Hal. 3490 U.S. Military Dead in Iraq since 2002 is too many. Let's bring the troops home now. Congress does not need the Republicans' permission to bring the troops home. Let's stop funding the War, now. That will bring the troops home in a hurry. How many deaths will it take, before too many U.S. soldiers have died? The answer, my friend is up to you. Ditch Mitch. Ditch Hal. Ditch George W. Ditch Cheney. Sweep the Democrats into office and see the difference. The Republicans have a reckless disregard for the safety of U.S. Servicemen. It is time to bring the Republicans home and to bring the U.S. Servicemen home. Vote Democratic.

Ditch Mitch and Hal, end Corporate Welfare.

Ditch Mitch McConnell and Hal Rogers and end Corporate Welfare.
"The US federal government is guilty of making huge corporate welfare handouts. Taxpayers are forced to pay for ridiculous things, including handouts to Enron, General Motors and AT&T.
Here is a new article by Representative Bernie Sanders. It appears here with the permission of BuzzFlash.
The Export-Import Bank: Corporate Welfare At Its Worst
by Rep. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
This country has a $6 trillion national debt, a growing deficit and is borrowing money from the Social Security Trust Fund in order to fund government services. We can no longer afford to provide over $125 billion every year in corporate welfare - tax breaks, subsidies and other wasteful spending - that goes to some of the largest, most profitable corporations in America.
One of the most egregious forms of corporate welfare can be found at a little known federal agency called the Export-Import Bank, an institution that has a budget of about $1 billion a year and the capability of putting at risk some $15.5 billion in loan guarantees annually. At a time when the government is under-funding veterans' needs, education, health care, housing and many other vital services, over 80% of the subsidies distributed by the Export-Import Bank goes to Fortune 500 corporations. Among the companies that receive taxpayer support from the Ex-Im are Enron, Boeing, Halliburton, Mobil Oil, IBM, General Electric, AT&T, Motorola, Lucent Technologies, FedEx, General Motors, Raytheon, and United Technologies.
You name the large multinational corporation, many of which make substantial campaign contributions to both political parties, and they're on the Ex-Im welfare line. Needless to say, many of these same companies receiving taxpayer support pay exorbitant salaries and benefits to their CEOs. IBM, for example, gave their former CEO Lou Gerstner over $260 million in stock options while they were lining up for their Ex-Im handouts.
The great irony of Ex-Im policy is not just that taxpayer support goes to wealthy and profitable corporations that don't need it, but that in the name of "job creation" a substantial amount of federal funding goes to precisely those corporations that are eliminating hundreds of thousands of American jobs. In other words, American workers are providing funding to companies that are shutting down the plants in which they work, and are moving them to China, Mexico, Vietnam and wherever else they can find cheap labor. What a deal!
For example, General Electric has received over $2.5 billion in direct loans and loan guarantees from the Ex-Im Bank. And what was the result? From 1975-1995 GE reduced its workforce from 667,000 to 398,000, a decline of 269,000 jobs. In fact, while taking the Ex-Im Bank subsidies, GE was extremely public about it's "globalization" plans to lay off American workers and move jobs to Third World countries. Jack Welch, the longtime CEO of GE stated, "Ideally, you'd have every plant you own on a barge."
General Motors has received over $500 million in direct loans and loan guarantees from the Export-Import Bank. The result? GM has shrunk its U.S. workforce from 559,000 to 314,000.
Motorola has received almost $500 million in direct loans and loan subsidies from the Ex-Im Bank. The result? A mere 56 percent of its workforce is now located in the United States.
In fact, according to Time Magazine, the top five recipients of Ex-Im subsidies over the past decade have reduced their workforce by 38% - more than a third of a million jobs down the drain. These same five companies have received more than 60 percent of all Export-Import Bank subsidies. Boeing, the leading Ex-Im recipient, has reduced its workforce by more than 100,000 employees over the past ten years.
Here are a few examples of your Ex-Im taxpayer dollars at work:
The Export-Import Bank has provided an $18 million loan to help a Chinese steel mill purchase equipment to modernize their plant. This Chinese company has been accused of illegally dumping steel into the U.S. - exacerbating the crisis in our steel industry.
Since 1994, the Export-Import Bank has provided $673 million in loans and loan guarantees for projects related to the Enron Corporation, leaving taxpayers exposed to $514 million. The Ex-Im Bank approved a $300 million loan for an Enron-related project in India even though the World Bank repeatedly refused to finance this project because it was "not economically viable."
The Export-Import Bank is subsidizing Boeing aircraft sales to the Chinese military. According to the President of Machinists' Local 751: "Boeing used to make tail sections for the 737 in Wichita, but they moved the work to a military factory in Xian, China. Is this Boeing's definition of free trade, to have American workers compete with Chinese labor making $50 a month under military discipline?"
The Ex-Im Bank insured a $3-million loan to aid General Electric build a factory where Mexican workers will make parts for appliances to export back to the United States. This project is responsible for the loss of 1,500 American jobs in Bloomington, Indiana.
And on and on it goes. The bottom line is that if the Export-Import Bank cannot be reformed so as to become a vehicle for real job creation in the United States, it should be eliminated. American citizens have better things to do with their money than support an agency that provides welfare for corporations that could care less about American workers."
