If there were any doubts that wealth distribution was at the heart of climate cap-and-trade agreements, President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela Hugo Chavez put them to rest when he delivered his anti-capitalist diatribe that drew thunderous applause from the convention’s delegates Wednesday:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 47px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.1em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 19px; background-image: url(http://foundry.heritage.org/wp-content/themes/heritage_v1/images/speechUp.gif); background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; "&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 7px; padding-right: 7px; padding-bottom: 7px; padding-left: 7px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.2em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 24px; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: rgb(247, 248, 250); background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; "&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog.heritage.org/2009/12/18/morning-bell-the-hugo-chavez-case-for-cap-and-trade/"&gt;One could say, Mr. President, that a ghost is haunting Copenhagen, to paraphrase Karl Marx, the great Karl Marx, a ghost is haunting the streets of Copenhagen, and I think that ghost walks silently through this room, walking around among us, through the halls, out below, it rises, this ghost is a terrible ghost almost nobody wants to mention it: Capitalism is the ghost, almost nobody wants to mention it.

Socialism, this is the direction, this is the path to save the planet, I don’t have the least doubt.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 14px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.2em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: 21px; "&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog.heritage.org/2009/12/18/morning-bell-the-hugo-chavez-case-for-cap-and-trade/"&gt;L&lt;/a&gt;ike I said, Capitalism is in danger and the fix is in.

font-size: 11px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 15px; "&gt;To whom it may concern,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We The People", the FREE people of these United States. Will be forced to march to our respective state capitols, in revolt against the destruction of our constitutional republic if you do not cease and desist from your violations of the law. You must begin immediate reversal of the erosion of the constitution. We patriots will not take your excuses anymore. We are sick and tired of your lies, your constant disregard toward us, and your prostitution of this great nation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be more specific in the details of our grievance, we are not corporations, and corporations will not have rights of people. Most every law you have made in the past 100 years is in complete violation of the 10th amendment. You have restricted our first amendment, our right to assemble, and slowly are attempting to destroy the 2nd amendment and our right to protect ourselves because you know you have to in order to keep us from rebelling. There are more violations than can be named. It is your job to know the law and what is in violation of the law. We should not need to tell you. We put you in your position to uphold the law, not to make it up as is most profitable to international bankers and your campaign.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have been watching you, we know who you are, and we have seen your true colors. We know who funds most of your campaigns. We have realized the charade behind the two party systems that has been played before us, which is only to disguise the monopoly of power behind the scenes by playing alternating good cop bad cop. We are telling you, it ends now and to make it more clear if necessary, THIS WILL ONLY CONTINUE OVER OUR DEAD BODIES. It may be up to you how many bodies that is. This is not a threat but a promise. We are arming, we are preparing, we are studying in the final and absolute defeat of the “new world order” president Bush so frequently referred to. We are not dumbed down citizens, but refined patriots marching for our freedoms with technologies and weaponry our founding fathers would have only dreamed of. You all have been lazy while we have been preparing and your arrogance will be your downfall if you do not immediately take proactive measures to restore the constitutional republic as intended by our founding fathers. The longer you postpone action, the stronger we bond against your tyranny and the more numbers you have against you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you will not receive us as patriots and defenders of our great nation, if you will not recognize our will and mindfulness of your mess, if you disregard our petitions and protests anymore, you will leave us with no choice but action. We are trying to resolve these issues in a peaceful manor. We are trying to be civil, with protests and phone calls. We are here asking you for your help but telling you, when that help does not arrive, we will have no choice but to act upon our civic responsibilities as Americans and defend our constitution from your tyranny. We are voicing our opinions and concerns on news stations and radio shows, writing you letters and emails of our disgust, filing petitions for redress of grievances against your collective power hungry antics, and yet you shut us out of your offices, remove us from town halls, refuse to take our calls, destroy our letters, and continue to participate in the same illegal acts we have already confronted you with. Instead of addressing our issues, you insist on discrediting our cause or ignoring it all together, hoping it will go away while it grows vigorously. You label us lunatics and crazies on TV because you cant win with facts and must rely on ignorant and often slanderous personal attacks instead. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are done with polite requests and may be done with you personally as a representative if you do not act now. We are no longer taking your crap and will not tolerate excuses or inaction. You have failed exceedingly in your job, not once, but many times. We are fed up with your lies and concerned for our constitution. We will fully prosecute all traitors to the fullest extent of the law and that time is coming fast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is your final warning, listen to us or get out of the way. Heed our demands our be punished to the fullest extent of the law. We are not asking but telling you, give us a peaceful resolve and heed our calls. Otherwise, we will be left with no other choice, but to make you jobless and take matters in to our own hands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We The People" &lt;br /&gt;Demand that you abide by every word of our constitution. &lt;br /&gt;We demand that you stop the socialization of America.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you destroy every plan for a one-world government.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you shred every law that restricts or infringes upon our amendments.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you abolish unconstitutional portions of the "Patriot Act"&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you relinquish Obamas presidency or show us his birth certificate.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you abolish the federal reserve and take back our monetary system.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you better the security of our borders.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you make our national language "New American English"&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you make us all Americans. &lt;br /&gt;(No African American, Latin American, etc. We are all simply Americans)&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you better the system for our veterans and our soldiers.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you better your relations with Israel.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you sever ties with Iran, and strip their nuclear powers away.&lt;br /&gt;We demand that you abide by these or face the consequences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not a joke; these are not polite suggestions. This is no longer a play for a good show on tv and radio. We are stopping you from destroying our nation. Meet these demands or you will have the biggest REVELUTION this world has ever seen. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sincerely,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We The People"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;wbr&gt;&lt;span class="word_break" style="display: block; float: left; margin-left: -10px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;wbr&gt;&lt;span class="word_break" style="display: block; float: left; margin-left: -10px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;wbr&gt;&lt;span class="word_break" style="display: block; float: left; margin-left: -10px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "&gt;&lt;/span&gt;---------&lt;br /&gt;We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness...&lt;br /&gt;-Declaration of Independence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So effective immediately:&lt;br /&gt;I hereby withdraw my consent to be governed, on the grounds of unconstitutional actions by the government.

Early in the week the announced a plan to buy off Seniors by sending each of them a $250 check with your taxes. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Obama is lying again about healthcare, keeping Americans in the dark with a secret closed door White House meeting when he promised open meetings would be televised on CNN. Why the secret? Because Dodd (D-CT) the architect behind the home mortgage crises that caused the greatest recession since the great depression is dealing away Americans Healthcare. Among the three principals currently working to combine two Senate committee bills on health reform, Dodd is the strongest advocate for creation of a "public option" government insurance plan. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Obama's Buy Off Of AMA Medicare Doctors Will Break the Budget &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The White House and Democratic leaders are offering doctors a deal: &lt;b&gt;They'll freeze cuts in Medicare payments to doctors in exchange for doctors' support of healthcare reform.&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;The payments are not being accounted for in the ObamaCare plan and there is no way to pay for them. This is an end run around Americans that do not want a taxpayer funded government run healthcare plan. &lt;/i&gt;These costs must be counted and are pushing the ever expanding cost of ObamaCare to a budget busting &lt;b&gt;$2,000,000,000,000 Trillion Dollars&lt;/b&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The AMA, an influential healthcare trade groups, spent $8.1 million on lobbying through the first six months of this year. What did they get back $250 Billion not bad. Obama needed their support and gave in when J.
