Jesse Venture On FEMA Camps

FEMA Camp Discussion Hits Prime Time

For Immediate Release

Contact Debbie Morgan, Media@CampFEMA.com

Columbia, MO November 18, 2010 - Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Venture plays host to a hand full of Southern Poverty Law Center "patriots" as Venture and team expose the plans for FEMA facilities. The program, which originally aired on TruTV on Friday, November 12, 2010, will re-air this Friday, November 19, at 8 PM, 7 pm Central.

Ventura hosts guest independent filmmaker William Lewis, along with guests Alex Jones, Catherine Bleish, and John Bush as Ventura and his team explore FEMA legislation, locations, and more. Lewis directs Ventura team member Daniel Kucan to a FEMA Location outside Los Angeles, California, where Kucan can see the massive security fence, the trailers, and barbed wire facing inward.

The legislation, HR 645, is a particularly nasty bit of legislative handiwork. Called National Emergency Centers Establishment Act, HR 645 spells out what the purpose of the centers; to provide housing, medical and other aid to people dislocated in the case of an emergency or a disaster. The minimum requirements for these facilities are to be "capable of meeting for an extended period of time the housing, health, transportation, education, public works, humanitarian and other transitional needs of a large number of individuals" and are to be able to be "scaled up or down" as needed.

While the Southern Poverty Law Center, CNN and even Glenn Beck thinks these emergency facilities are innocuous enough, the loss of liberties at such a rapid rate since 9/11, especially with FEMA's mishandling of the crisis during their involvement during Hurricane Katrina, and the passage of the USA PATRIOT Acts, allowing the indefinite detention of someone on the word and suspicion of one person, makes this legislation and these facilities a real concern.

The FEMA-centered documentaries released by producer Gary Franchi and director William Lewis address all of this and much more. For more information, please visit www.CampFEMA.com

“Political Correctness Does Not Legislate Tolerance; It Only Organizes Hatred.”

"Our Founding Fathers embedded this enduring principle in America’s Constitution, but this critical freedom is hard to sustain in our politically correct age. For this important freedom isn’t really free; the cost is to extend the same freedom to those who disagree with you—those who might even offend you while exercising the very freedom you treasure."

A Confederate Tea Party

"There are Confederates at the Tea Parties. Some do fly the battle flag high and proud. The Left would have Americans believe that rebels attend parties because they don't like “the Man” now that he is black. Nothing could be further from the truth, Confederates who attend Tea Parties are there because they believe in limited government, as they have always done."

MTV Pressuring Employees To Attend Jon Stewart’s Political Rally

Marketing Obama Television
"The line MTV draws is also clear. Those who choose to attend Stewart’s left-wing event are loyal to the company, and those who choose not to attend … are not. After all, you did pledge allegiance to the “MTV Networks flag,” right?

What’s a conservative to do in a situation like this? You either conform or…"

========

"Whether you lean left or right, hail from a blue state or red, prefer keeping sanity, fear, or a healthy dose of both alive and well, the one thing we all have in common is that we’ve pledged allegiance to the MTV Networks flag."

Spoken like a good Marxist.

Day Of Atonement v. Day Of Resolve

Washington Rebel
"How could a semi-white POTUS ride on a wave of sick collective White mea culpa with the help of nonwhite vote fraudsters at ACORN and SEIU into the White House and turn sugar daddy and rainmaker for a vast domestic black clientele for “Obama money” taken from you either through taxes or printing? How could the GOP put up a white sellout coward, John McCain, to contest the race against Obama and not make a peep about what was already plainly apparent about Latte Messiah’s background and intentions?

What is the ridiculous Glenn Beck doing on his knees all the time with his tearing face buried in the trouser seat of Martin Luther King? Want to know how a black man feels about it who hasn’t lost his primary allegiance to America? Listen to Pastor James Manning here:"

He starts out slow, but hold on!

League Of The South Statement

On Saturday, 28 August, we witnessed--in the flesh--a false dichotomy in Washington, DC. To paraphrase a prominent Southern statesman, George Wallace - "There isn't a dime's worth of difference ...... The Beck-Palin movement will lure many well-meaning conservatives to the same place the marching band ended up in the homecoming parade in the movie "Animal House"--down a blind, dead-end alley.

Blatantly False Statements By Glenn Beck

ANOTHER MEDIA ATTACK

I am writing this month's CONFEDERATE JOURNAL about the Constitution of the Confederate States of America because of a blatantly false statement made about the document by nationally-syndicated radio host and Fox News Channel television host Glenn Beck.

Let me begin by saying that I have listened to the Glenn Beck radio program for more than five years and have watched his TV program two to three times a week since it began on Fox. I must say that 5 PM does not always find me at home in front of my television.

I
have found Beck to be industrious, sincere and oftentimes bold. He has done some praiseworthy work in identifying (and outing) many Progressives, Socialists and Marxists associated with the current administration in Washington. Especially laudable has been his ongoing effort to recognize and praise those giants of American history, the Founding Fathers. He obviously spent a great deal of time and energy studying the Progressive Movement in this country. Kudos for all this.

I have been perplexed by two horrific blind spots that Beck has concerning this country and its direction. He claims to fear and abhor the concept of a strong, centralized national government (as do I), yet he is a big admirer of Abraham Lincoln. Where does he think our big, centralized government originated? It was certainly in place before his favorite whipping-boy, Woodrow Wilson, came along.

I will not elaborate on Lincoln here as I have written about that tyrant before in this column on several occasions. Suffice to say that it was Mr. Lincoln's War with all its ramifications that destroyed the federal system of limited government that was given to this country by the Founders.

Why did Lincoln ignore a Peace Delegation sent by President Jefferson Davis in early 1861 and continue doggedly with his plans for war? One newspaper, the Providence (RI) DAILY POST, opined the following on April 13, 1861 concerning why there was to be war in America: "Why? We are to have war, if at all, because Abraham Lincoln loves a Party better than he loves his country. Why?". British Foreign Secretary Lord Russell answered that query succinctly: "Not for Union, not for slavery - for power."

Yet Beck persists in his admiration for old Dishonest Abe.

Beck also speaks often on his shows about his disdain for the Progressives and their marching mates - the Socialists and Marxists - who have for years infiltrated the national government. Yet Beck presents himself as a big admirer of Martin Luther King. He seems oblivious to the many Communist connections ( Stanley Levison, Bayard Rustin, et al ) of King and the fact that King was warned by John Kennedy about those associations and was watched by the FBI for years for the same reason. Go figure.

Despite these blind spots I had remained a defender of Beck when members of my several lunchtime discussion groups would criticize him. I just considered Beck a work in progress and believed he would eventually get around to the truth. After all, he speaks incessantly on his programs about bringing the truth to the fore.

I experienced an epiphany about two weeks ago, however. It was a Saturday and I had just arrived at home after working out of town. I turned on the TV to relax a bit and was surprised to see the Beck show. It must have been a rerun of a previously aired show and was being used as a Saturday filler. I had missed the beginning of the show and didn't know what had been discussed.

Beck's first remark was about what he called the "Confederate Constitution". My ears perked up. He stated to his guests that he had visited "that museum in the South" where he had read the entire document. My jaw dropped with his next statement. He looked at his guests and said it was actually "the Slaveholders Constitution" since "the whole thing was about nothing but slavery". I did my best imitation of one of my heroes, South Carolina Congressman Joe Wilson, and yelled at the TV, "You lie!". Allow me to explain.

The Constitution of the Confederate States of America contains a total of 5856 words of text in 7 Articles, 22 Sections and 93 Paragraphs. In this entire document the term "slave" or a derivation ("slaves", "slaveholding", etc.) occurs a grand total of 10 times. By any stretch it is hard to justify saying "the whole thing was about nothing but slavery".

The first mention of the term is in Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 3 which simply deals with taxes and apportionment (census issues). The next occurrence of the term is in Article 1, Section 9, Paragraph 1 which is approximately 1800 words after the first reference. This section is interesting so I will quote it from the C.S.A. Constitution:

"
The importation of Negros of the African race,from any foreign
country, other than the slaveholding States or Territories of
the United States of America,
is hereby forbidden, and Congress
is required to pass such laws as shall effectually prevent the
same."

Did you get that? The Constitution of the C.S.A. forbade the importation of any black slaves into the Confederate States. I will not discuss the strong feelings in the South during that time that slavery should be gradually fazed out but I will remind you that no slave ship carrying that wretched human cargo ever sailed under a Confederate Flag.

I am not going to quote all the paragraphs containing the words "slave", "slaves", "slaveholding" and the like although there are only 7 such paragraphs in the entire document. By the way, the Constitution printed in standard book form is almost 18 full pages. Other references to the term relate to such issues as the right of a slaveholder to take his slaves into another state of the Confederacy either in transit or for permanent settlement and a prohibition against importation of slaves from any state of the United States not a member of the Confederacy.

Oh yes, there is included an almost carbon copy of the Fugitive Slave Act from the laws of the United States. In fact, if Glenn Beck had taken the time to study it, he would have realized that the Constitution of the Confederate States very closely paralleled the Constitution of the United States.
If he doesn't like one he should not like the other.

It is puzzling to me why Beck, who otherwise seems to research his topics well, would make such an inane and stupid statement about the C.S.A. Constitution. I am left with only three possible explanations:

1) he deliberately misspoke because of an anti-Southern, anti-Confederate bias;
2) he was incapable of understanding what he read (this seems unlikely); or
3) he never read the document.

Whatever the reason, I am very disappointed in Glenn Beck and have lost a degree of confidence in the accuracy and truthfulness of other statements he has made or will make in the future. I hate this because I have had such confidence in his truthfulness and admire his courage in revealing many of his findings about powerful people and potentially explosive situations.

When will Glenn Beck realize that it was the South that was fighting for the concept of limited government, not the Federal leviathan. Does he not know that the Northern sentiment toward slavery was summed up in that famous statement from Union general Ulysses Grant who said after the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation (that actually freed no one) that if he thought the war was about freeing the slaves he would resign his commission and offer his sword to the other side?
Does he know nothing of the Corwin Amendment which was passed by the U.S. Congress (minus the elected representatives of the seven states that had already seceded) just the week before Lincoln's inauguration and Lincoln strongly endorsed the amendment in his inaugural address?

If you are unaware of the Corwin Amendment (it's one of those secrets of history that the national education establishment likes to keep a secret) , or the First 13th Amendment as it is sometimes called, its purpose was to prohibit the U.S. Congress from trying to ban slavery in whatever states still permitted it. It was introduced in the House by Rep. Thomas Corwin of Ohio and in the Senate by Sen. William Seward of New York. It passed the House on February 28, 1861, by a vote of 133 to 65 and the Senate on March 2, 1861, by a vote of 24 to 12. Lincoln approved it and even lobbied for its passage.

The Northern politicians mistakenly thought that by protecting slavery constitutionally and in perpetuity that the seven seceded Southern states would return to the Union and no other states would secede. They did not realize that slavery was not the primary issue for the Southern States and, in actuality, the South was seceding because the various states were committed to independence. After its passage in Congress, the Southern States ignored the Corwin Amendment.

As I mentioned earlier, I think Glenn Beck is still a work in progress (as are so many other Americans who are historically-ignorant). I hope and pray that he will eventually learn the truth about the South, the Confederacy, the Constitution of the C.S.A. and so many other issues generally ignored or lied about by the government-influenced media.

Beck has done a fine job in identifying individuals who can assist him in developing his knowledge of the American pageant. He found David Barton to bolster his knowledge of the Founding Fathers. A good choice for that but Barton is certainly not a scholar when it comes to the Great War of 1861-65. Beck also found the magnificent Stanton Evans to instruct him about the middle part of the 20th Century.

I only hope that Beck will eventually discover such outstanding scholars and people as Marshall DeRosa, Thomas DiLorenzo, Chuck Baldwin, Clyde Wilson, Donald Livingston and many others who can teach him the truth about that delicate period in the middle of the 19th Century when this country lost its way and also lost the Republic that Ben Franklin had spoken of after the ratification of the United States Constitution.
