Welcome Back The Spotlight 'O Terror
Green - Low: This setting is here just as a reference point. DHS will never use it because it would mean we didn’t need them anymore.
Blue - Guarded: This rarely used setting on the Stoplight ‘O Terror could indicate things like an undocumented worker within 3 square miles of the president.
Yellow - Elevated: This is the standard level of fear. Don’t expect to see anything lower than this as long as the Regressives are in office. Be scared, but not too scared to vote Republican.
Orange - High: Chertoff heard that someone in the CIA’s brother’s boss’ nephew’s sister-in-law heard about a plan to blow up Amish Country Popcorn Factory in Berne Indiana. It’s ok to pee your pants at this level.
Red - Severe: A terror attack was recently narrowly averted. We can’t release any details but just be thankful we saved your asses. Used frequently before midterm elections. See October Surprise. (Oh My God, Take Away My Freedoms and Protect Me From Them There Terrorists, Like Osama Hussein!!!)

| Survey Says:
Americans Aren't Buying What Two Parties Are Selling
Zogby Poll Shows Majority Eyeing Third Party
Lancaster, Pa/ July 9, 2007: The Constitution Party calls attention to a recent Zogby.com poll which reveals overwhelming voter dissatisfaction with the two parties currently controlling government.
67% of registered voters surveyed voiced unhappiness with the political status quo and called for a solution outside the Republican and Democratic parties.
The poll showed those most disturbed by the present system were those who considered themselves political independents – 80% said they were frustrated with the two party system.
"Americans have seen enough political sleight-of-hand; they're now inclined to ditch the myth that our country is best served by two dominant parties. Our Founders were clear about the dangers of powerful parties", said Constitution Party National Committee Chairman Jim Clymer.
"The 'Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum' political parties have run out of time because voters have run out of patience. The R's and D's are virtually indistinguishable at this point", added Clymer.
Pollster John Zogby wrote: " 47 % of Republicans are somewhat or very dissatisfied. Only 21 % percent of Democrats feel this way. So it's looking to me right now like the Democrats are pleased with their candidates."
"Eyeing the current crop of Republican presidential candidates gives the GOP faithful very little hope they'll get to vote for someone who represents them- no wonder they're so discouraged", commented Jim Clymer. "Americans should refer to the Republican hopefuls as 'Doctor No, the Three Musketeers and the Seven Dwarfs'.
Congressman Ron Paul -dubbed 'Doctor No' for consistently voting against un-constitutional programs, higher taxes and big-government spending- is the only clear choice and he's been taking a drubbing by GOP leadership. The Three Musketeers, Tancredo, Hunter and Gilmore have solid positions on some issues but none make the 'constitutionally-correct' grade", noted Clymer.
Giuliani, McCain and Romney are so far to the left Constitutional conservatives couldn't possibly consider voting for them- they're included among The Seven Dwarfs, along with Huckabee, Brownback, Thompson and Gingrich.
The Zogby poll comes on the heels of another national survey ( http://rasmussenreports.com) which shows the number of Republicans has been falling for two years straight and now hovers around 30%.
The Rasmussen poll also found the number of people identifying themselves as Democrats has fallen to its lowest level in a year and a half and is gauged at about 37%. This substantiates a trend of Americans continuing to lose faith in both "Big Box" parties.
As a result, the number not affiliated with either major party has jumped to another all-time high—almost 33%.
That means there are now more independents than there are Republicans.
The Constitution Party, the only pro-life, pro-secure borders, pro-second amendment national political party encourages voters to "think outside the box" and examine the ideological pedigrees of all candidates for office.

ACCEPTS GENEROUS "DONATION"
FROM OREGON STATE POLICE
Clackamas, OR - The founders of BELEIVERS AGAINST THE WAR have announced the settlement of their lawsuit against the Oregon State Police and Senior Trooper Ken Moore. On December 9, 2006, an incensed Trooper Moore confronted David and Suzanne Brownlow, along with their 12-year-old daughter, while they were protesting the Iraq war on a public sidewalk in the Clackamas Town Center area.
The Brownlows, who have a son currently dodging mortar fire in Iraq, were holding a 10-foot banner, visible to the traffic on Interstate 205 that read, SUPPORT OUR TROOPS – BRING THEM HOME!
In the ensuing confrontation, trooper Moore told the Brownlows they were breaking the law by displaying their banner, and threatened to arrest them if they did not leave the area. The family refused to leave, stating that they had a Constitutional right to stand on a public sidewalk with their banner. The trooper forcibly took the banner out of their hands, and remanded the Brownlows to a nearby parking lot for further questioning – effectively, ending their protest.
The Brownlows filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against Trooper Moore.
According to the Oregon State Police, an internal investigation into the incident led to a three month suspension of Trooper Moore. In addition, he received a reduction in pay upon his return to active duty. The Brownlows accepted a $25,000 settlement from the state of Oregon.
David Brownlow, Executive Director of BELEIVERS AGAINST THE WAR, said, "Unfortunately, the only way to get anyone’s attention at the state level is to sue somebody for a lot of money. But, this was never about the money, or what happened to my family. This was about holding our public servants accountable to obey the Constitution they swore and oath to defend."
Brownlow continued, "My wife and I will be using our portion of this settlement to further our anti-war efforts – with our first donation going to www.beitshalomministries.org, who are facing a similar harassment from various law enforcement agencies as they walk across America, calling Christians to repent of their support for the occupation of Iraq. We will be using the publicity surrounding this incident to encourage other anti-war demonstrators that our Constitution is alive and well, and it still protects our inalienable to right to free speech and peaceable assembly."
