CIA Head Sworn In On Draft Constitution WITHOUT Bill of Rights
The government has absolutely shred the Bill of Rights in the last decade or so.
New CIA boss John Brennan endorses torture, assassination of unidentified strangers (including Americans) without due process, and spying on all Americans.
As such, it is fitting that Mr. Brennan specially requested that he be sworn in on a draft of the Constitution lacking the Bill of Rights.
A draft which doesn’t even begin with the famous preamble we all know and love:
We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America ....
But rather starts with:
We the People of the States of New-Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New-York, New-Jersey, Pennslyvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North-Carolina, South-Carolina and Georgia, do ordain, declare and establish the following Constitution for the Government of Ourselves and our Posterity….
That has a very different tone from the final version of the Constitution.
Here’s the actual version Brennan swore in on, courtesy of the National Archives (click any image for larger view):
The handwriting is that of George Washington.
Washington was a brave leader (but a terrible general). More importantly, he was one man … and the whole idea of the Bill of Rights is that the people have inalienable rights – e.g. no deprivation of life, liberty or property without due process of law – which cannot be taken away by any leader … including the president or the head of the CIA.

ignorance, lies, okk.....one hellva debater you be.
There be the catholics of Crusader ire, AYatollahs of Shia Islam, the jesuits of new counter reform; all defending God's word...now we have the constitutionalists of American truth, like it be embaumed like Chavez or Lenin, enshrined for eternity.
Hey, its not the gospel... and it can be changed, a constitution, if it doesn't fit the human foot anymore...Even GWB said it was just a piece of paper.
What he didn't say or do was have it amended in OPEN debate; if he felt it needed change.
That's democracy...and it was not followed when he decreed Patriot act.
The Constitution was a coup d'tat over the Articles of Confederation, but like both, they are instruments of the State. Therefore, they are all destined to become the foundation for a society based on slavery- and democracy will never change that. Just as all religions are bastions of slavery as well- all trading control for false security, all believed by the democratic passions that make up the electorate. Why do you think the Elites like democracy?
Votes are the corporal form of ignorance, for that is how most are cast.
Liberty is absolutely terrifying to the uninitiated, but it is the opposite of slavery and control. As long as you have law, you have the means to shift power and influence to slavery and control. As long as you control information (mass media) you have the means to justify your actions. As long as you have democracy, you have the legitimization of slavery from the slaves themselves.
While I think it is perfectly fine for a person to CHOOSE to be a slave, it should not be requisite for everyone else, just because they were capable of being fooled.
at Sean --what percentge of the electorate, do you think, don't vote ----- food for thought?? hmmm
Not enough. All it would require is a 20% vote in a national election, to discredit the whole process (we'll get there). NOT voting is the best vote of all.
Amen, back to the caves we go!
Philosopher kings are as rare as unicorns, even then, we'll probably find it was just a mutant goat with a misplaced horn...
Confuse and conquer. That is how foreign influence seeks to ruin the Republic which is not a democracy, as you rightly say.
Democracy is a form of extremism; power without responsibility. It works until politicians figure out how to bribe voters with their own money, and voters figure out how to game each other.
A Republic only works if individuals bear responsibility for their community.Give more than they take, whether that is by money or volunteer work.
No second passports, dual citizenship. No second language. One for all, all for one...or go away to some place else.
***No second passports, dual citizenship.***
How dare you! You mean I can't become a dual citizen of Israel and join the Israeli army? You mean I'm supposed to be loyal and patriotic towards the United States of America over a foreign country such as Israel? How dare you!!

Considering how much 'americans' have taken since their inception, it should close any argumentation over a supposed period of a functional republic.
'Americans' are takers. 'Americans' are thieves at heart. Theft is essential in 'americanism'.
At the beginning of the 20th century, 'american' felt the consequences of the end of indian land transfer. They ran out of land to steal. It had the consequences it had on the world scale.
But the shortage was only local, limited to the 'american' geographical area. There were ways out, in the surrounding world.
Current crisis has that different 'americans' are running out of things to take, to steal on the global scale.
For some time, they sold the idea that their ingenuosity would allow them to find escape in space but the harsh reality is here: the 'american' pionneering the new frontier space program is a grand fiasco.
'Americans' are trapped on Earth and there is less and less things to steal on the global scale.
No way out. No place to hide. No place to run.
would be nice to have a budget and an election manifesto..line by line...for each representative..mind you..im not sure anyone knew what they were actually voting for ..even in gw's time...douche bag or shit sandwich remains the choice...same as it ever was
More and more people are waking up to this tyranny. Give thanks.
From this story:
"With the looming threat of an attack on ‘innocent’ Iran, it is the same premise of ‘bomb them just in case’. This tactic is no different than shooting someone ‘just in case’ they get a gun and kill you, even though they have never exhibited any aggression or threat of aggression towards you, or indeed never possessed a gun in the past."

More 'americans'? Knowing what is going on wont stop 'americans'. Will just expose they know while they claim to ignore.
In the US, the mecca of 'americanism' on Earth, you can stalk a person, shoot him to death when that person exerts a legitimate right to self defence and get away with it.
'Americans' are driven by two things: resources and murder.
Iran will provide opportunities to satisfy the thirst of 'americans' for both whenever Iran signals it is time. 'Americans' are just waiting for a window.
You are correct in only one point. Exposing of 'americans' by their own creates the resources they need so that all claims can be ignored.
The mecca of China has a hold let us not forget on the 'american' values busy integrating such into daily life. Murder tolerance good to go.
Iran's gambit takes center stage at the moment yet this will be thought of as childs-play by 'citizens' of Iran until such time as Israel decides Iran's blobbing-up no longer to be tolerated. 'Americans' will then jump out the window of opportunity to inaugurate same by mandate.
For all you who doubt the predators are establishing overt tyranny... is this blatant enough for you yet? Nah, I guess not. Nothing is.
That anyone ALLOWED him to take this fiat, fake, fraud, fiction, fantasy oath is also an overt act of treason and tyranny. The fact is, this doofus doesn't lawfully occupy the fictional office everyone will not claim he occupies.
"The fact is, this doofus doesn't lawfully occupy the fictional office everyone will not claim he occupies."
Hello HonestAnn, in spirit, that is true for many of those critters up there in the supposed places of leadership. Hollow carcasses of a self-serving negative evil energy are they.
The sad unreality is, they have their fingers on the drone controls, push button mercenary-murderers, satellite tech to track and trace, and will eventually in the mindless heartless irrational Heglaterial thinking that every psychopathic despot has in it's desire to murder innocent women and children for the masters money god gains, push those buttons.
Thank you for playing through.

One of the key components of maintaining the status quo is maintaining its legitimacy. Failure to maintain legitimacy makes it possible for counter parties to claim legitimacy there by destabilizing the system. Mr. Brennan in an effort to be coy has shredded the legitimacy of his appointment. He has not been legally sworn in, therefore, he is not legally the director. Clearly this administration does not think that anyone is paying attention. They assume that none of this matters.
Oh, they assume it matters (or might matter someday)... which is why they did this. However, it does indeed double in purpose as a statement that they are in control, and intend to do whatever they wish, without constraints, over the coming years.
'The pen is mightier than the sword.' Resist, we must, and will, dear 'honestann'.
wake me when someone one swears in on the Articles of Confederation.
you are destined to die never been woken up
Sounds like a set up for major 'quibbling' - "Of COURSE I'm defending the Constitution just as I swore an oath to do....."
only that copy of the Constitution had nothing about Individual Rights in it so if those are violated... well, He did NOT take an oath to defnnd those
Quibbling - a term at USMA (West Point) defining a situation whereby a cadet is technically telling the truth, using semantics or twisted logic in response to a question to avoid a direct answer that would be a lie in response to the INTENT of the question asked. It is still considered to be a LIE - a violation of the Honor Code.
In a future international War Crimes Tribunal, he can always insist he didn't violate his oath.
If we allow him to defend himself---what goes around comes around.
Honor? (made me throw up in my mouth a little)..Honor and politicians..interesting concept..is there something that covers truth, service, fidelity, bravery, self-sacrifice, or..heaven forbid...accepting the smartest case?
Was this so the Moose Limb Brennan wouldn't have to touch a Bible. And a draft? WTF!!!
There are far too many Soviet fuck stains in the U.S. gubmint.
I think we are going to need moar lamposts.
The whole construct upon which the United States of America was founded was/is a sham- VERY smart (and ironically perhaps ingenuous)drafters of docs notwithstanding. The globalisation game (ie EMPIRE) is a final result (ie disempowerment of the individual, hail Caesar!). And in a sense, that was/ is inevitable. Nature/evolution insists, it dictates strength. T-Rex was no democrat...took a meteor to fuck his genetic line. There are 6 billion people on earth. Four billion are surplus baggage. I HATE the philosophy of that recognition, but it is what is.
TPTB are today's T-Rex. I live in New Zealand...on a self sustaining 10 acres far from the madding crowd. My children think I am slightly paranoid-probably right. But in this day and age, I think EVERY intelligent, socialogically and politically self-advised household should keep a tin foil hat in its cupborad. Unfortunately, NZ has JOhn Key, ex Merrill-Lynch (lynch by name and lynch by nature) head of global FX as PM...a globalisation man through and through...a Prescott Bush-like character, buying his (and his lineage's) ticket on TPTB ark (2012 movie anybody?). As I said. there is way too much excess 'humanity'. In their shoes, what would would YOU do?
Cognitive disonance is a bitch

As bad as a General General and President Washington may have been...and I happen to think he is a vastly underrated one...he still won. (the "when it counted" General.) Clearly you don't get America's independence from the Crown...nor the Constitution...unless you have General Washington. (a contiguous State that endures 'till this very day i might add.) As a consequence America ironically enough has never been lacking in great Generals...the latest being General David Petraeus in my view. (i find it interesting that the media now calls his time in service "scandal plagued." i thought he resigned due to allegations actually.) simply put you couldn't pay me all the money in the world to take that job at CIA. you're not on the front lines of the "war on terror"...you're OVER that line "and beyond." if it were me i'd ask for the Bible and nothing else "please" cuz starting one's tenure by "reading meaning into things" strikes me as...well, shall we just call the guy the "right guy for the job" and be done with it? it's not like he doesn't have a job to do from day one "and it ain't spying on 'mericans." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MVonyVSQoM
They had to use this one, if it had been the BoR it would have given him third degree burns to touch it.
Haha,
Good one.
My thought was that Obama was still reading the Satanic Bible so it wasn't available to Brennan to use.
O calls it 'My Precious' and won't let it out of his sight.
I'm surprised this cocksucker, Fascist, Criminal Treasonist didn't burst into flames.
this shit gets more and more bizarre- but I'm sure that it will be the second story on tonight's evening news right after the euro bank US $100B cash injection
It saved him having to keep his fingers crossed during the oath taking. These guys have standards, after all.
Well then he has not been sworn in and is not the head of an American agency.
And likewise he will probably not be afforded his right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness when he wanders off without his KGB thugs.
Exactly. Just like when you bump in to the loud-mouthed punk when his buddies aren't around to back him up, he's nothing but a thug in a suit. The whirlwind will be extra-brutal for all of these tyrants and their associated sycophants.
I'm suprised he just doesn't swear an oath directly to O- like the wehrmacht did to AH
In your face corruption.
Shame that Article 6, section 9 did not survive into the current draft ... last bit about Senators being ineligible to hold other offices of the US for a period of one-year after leaving their term in the Senate would have saved us a lot of grief over the years.
Shame that the 17th Amendment to the US constitution was enacted (popular election of senators.) That would have saved us even more grief.
lawsy yes
Sworn in on a draft. How ridiculous.
Not at all ... it is emblemmatic of a ruling class that is making things up as they go along.
