Pro-Liberty Dwayne Stovall Steps Up to Challenge RINO John Cornyn, U.S. Senate

Do you want to restore the Constitution of the United States as written and amended?

Do you believe the Federal Government consistently works outside the limits placed on it by the Constitution?

Do you see how the United States of America, which the Constitution created as a Republic based in federalism, has declined into a Nation based in socialism?

If so, you are the one I am talking to.

I have held out hope that someone with Jeffersonian principles would step up to run against U.S. Senator John Cornyn, and since it has not happened, I have decided to test the waters. I am reaching out to conservative and liberty oriented groups to see if it is possible for a regular citizen to garner enough signatures to enter the race by petition. To get on the ballot, one must pay a fee of $5,000 or provide a petition with 5,000 signatures. I have chosen to use the petition to gauge how much support can be expected.

I am a Christian, Texan, husband, father, and small business owner in Cleveland, Texas. I have been happily married for 22 years and have 3 children. Starting with nothing and trying to build a business is an experience that everyone should have to go through. The thought that you can lose everything you have and upset the lives of everyone around you, because of a single poor decision or unexpected incident, will teach you lessons about life that no university can possibly provide. We have faced wolves at the door, and been blessed with the ability to keep them at bay. I am not rich, but I am blessed.

Thankfully I am not a lawyer or an over educated intellectual, but I do have a master’s degree in common sense. If you feel it is absolutely necessary to have a college degree to do the job of a U.S. Senator you can stop reading here.

When I entered my 40s I became acutely aware of the negative impact the last century of centralized planning and unconstitutional growth of the Federal Government has had on our State and our individual liberty. It was that awareness that motivated me to start learning again and which ultimately led me to the founders, framers, and ratifiers of the Constitution of the United States.

I have since embarked on a never ending journey of self-education revolving around source documents and what the Constitution of the United States meant to the people at the time it was created, debated, and agreed to.

The underlying theme of everything I have learned so far is that “interpretations” of 20th century unelected progressive judges are generally adverse to the Constitution, and Texas, like every other state, is being taken over by tyranny in the form of federal judges; judges that take every opportunity to unconstitutionally expand the size and scope of the Federal Government at the expense of state sovereignty and independence.

I am in no way an historian or constitutional scholar, but almost none of the elite in DC are either and many actually view the Constitution as nothing more than an obstacle; a meaningless document.

I absolutely hate the idea of being in politics, but in late 2011 I became so distraught at what was being done to future generations of Texans that I came to a personal crossroads; I had to decide whether to simply stop voting altogether or to get in on the fight. So with just a few weeks left before the primary, I entered the race for State Representative in my district. I had about 12 weeks to campaign, but I still garnered 43% of the vote in each of the two counties I campaigned in.

Why don’t I run for that position again? Simple. We all know we are being destroyed by the power hungry elite in Washington D.C. and like it or not, the last vestige of a State’s check on the Federal is in the U.S. Senate. Although in 1913 the 17th amendment destroyed this check, I still expect a Senator to represent Texas as it was meant to be; as a sovereign and independent member of this Union. I am sick and tired of Senators selling us down the river with ever more debt and lost liberty, while at the same time lying to us about how conservative they are, or how loyal they are to their oaths to protect the Constitution.

That said; I want everyone to know that I think Ted Cruz has done a wonderful job so far, but as with all elected officials, especially lawyers, trust but verify, and I am certain Senator Cruz would agree.

Speaking of Senator Cruz: What if Senator Cruz spent the rest of his term voting for increasing the debt ceiling, increasing spending, destruction of the Constitution, and removal of State sovereignty and independence? Would you vote to reelect him? I’m sure your answer is the same as mine; absolutely not.

But what if the voting record I just described belonged to a two term incumbent? What if you knew that a Senator from Texas had a long history of voting in favor of growing the size and scope of the Federal Government? What if you knew that current Senator John Cornyn is not a friend of republicanism, federalism, or limited government? What if you knew that Senator Cornyn’s voting record would make him more historically aligned with a nationalist like Alexander Hamilton than with a supporter of individual liberty such as Thomas Jefferson? Would you still vote for him? I know these things to be true, and I can no longer remain silent.

The Senate was never intended to represent the people; that was the job of the House. Its primary purpose was to represent the best interest of the States. During the debates in Philadelphia George Mason argued that the branches of the new central government must have “the faculty of self-defense” and insisted that the selection of senators by state legislatures alone could meet that need. His motion passed. As Madison noted; surely the States needed to able to protect themselves against the likelihood that the federal legislature would swallow them up. (Again, the 17th amendment destroyed this check)

The primary job description of a United States Senator:

1. Propose amendments to, or concur with, bills and amendments originating in the House.
2. Propose bills or amendments that are NOT related to raising revenue.
3. To offer advice and consent to the President in matters related to Treaties and appointments.

This job of a United States Senator from Texas is not beyond the common citizen. It does not require a great education or skill. It requires that a person simply be honest, forthright, and loyal to the great State of Texas. A U.S. Senator should have a very strict set of guidelines:

1. Only support federal actions that are expressly authorized in the U.S. Constitution.
2. Never vote to increase the size and scope of the Federal Government.
3. Never vote to increase spending or to raise the debt ceiling.
4. Never vote for anything that will negatively affect Texas.
5. Actively include the Governor and the State legislature of Texas in the business of the U.S. Senate.

Future generations of Texans are being sentenced into servitude to a bankrupt unconstitutional National Government (not federal) that is becoming more tyrannical by the day. The founding principle of liberty is being destroyed by the very people we have entrusted to protect it and we cannot afford to stand by any longer. If you will have me I will gladly take up the fight, but I will need your help to do so.

Please contact me if you wish to help with the petition drive.

In liberty,

Dwayne Stovall Opposes Agenda 21:

My view of the United Nation’s global initiative “Agenda 21″ is the same view I have of cancer. It must be dealt with as soon as possible and with action required to eradicate it, not just slow it down.

I first heard of Agenda 21 while in Japan about 10 years ago. I was invited to have a drink with a dozen or so construction equipment dealers from around the globe. It was ironic to me that none of these men could agree on a single political point, but to my amazement, they each agreed emphatically that the world was being managed by an elite few. And that these elite few were tied to everything from central banks around the world to the United Nations. They kept using words like “global initiative” or “Agenda 21″ and how they were a means for controlling the planet. I was the youngest in attendance and the only American and I really didn’t give it much thought. When they used these terms, it was like hearing George H. W. Bush use the term “New World Order” in his 1991 speech introducing America to Operation Desert Storm in Kuwait. It just left me scratching my head and wondering what the hell they were talking about.

Over the years I paid attention to its development. I watched it grow to include global gun control. One of my good friends and business associates from Australia sent me an email before Christmas to let me know that Australia had “jumped the shark”, so to speak. They had passed the very first carbon tax. They were actually paying a tax on air! He is at a complete loss on how to stop this movement. I have to say, a part of me was just glad it wasn’t here…

I couldn’t have been more wrong. In early February, because of a tip from a friend, I attended a “Go Sustainability” meeting at the public library in Liberty, Texas. The meeting was held by the Harris-Galveston Area Council. In questioning the facilitators, I found out that it was funded by a grant from HUD with support from the FedDOT and the EPA. I am almost positive that if we dig deeper, there is some money from the International Council on Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). NO ONE from the State Capitol of Texas is involved and as far as I know, none are aware it is happening.

My letter to Denton, Texas City Council, Mayor, and Managers

Stop 21 Texas — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 02:06:17 +0000

Dear Denton Council, Mayor, and Managers:

I have recently become aware that Denton, Texas spent $1,750.00 dollars on a program called ICLEI.
Source: http://cityofdenton.com/home/showdocument?id=15051

ICLEI is a Non-Governmental Organization which implements policies created by the United Nations. ICLEI has been created for the purpose of implementing UN Agenda 21, otherwise known as “Smart Growth” in our local area. I strenuously object to our local government subscribing to, and promoting these policies.

The United Nations Agenda 21 is a comprehensive plan of extreme environmentalism, social engineering, and global political control that was initiated at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (“UNCED”) held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1992. This global treaty was signed by George H. Bush. The treaty was never ratified by two-thirds of the Senate as is required by the U.S. Constitution.

Instead, in 1996 President Clinton signed an Executive Order creating the President’s Council for Sustainable Development which assisted in implementing these policies throughout our nation by giving millions of dollars to the American Planning Association to come up with a plan on how to implement it.

The policies of ICLEI are guaranteed to strip the property rights of American citizens, and are also a direct violation of the 5th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution: the right to property.

Today UN Agenda 21, under the name of “Smart Growth” is being implemented in every State in the nation through our local governments and planning boards.

This plan of radical so-called “sustainable development” views the American way of life of private property ownership, single-family homes, private car ownership and individual travel choices, and privately owned farms all as destructive to the environment.

As an American and local citizen, I request that you immediately withdraw membership from ICLEI and immediately cease supporting, implementing or advocating on behalf of any of its programs.

Thank you,

How Will UN’s Agenda 21 Affect Central Texas?

March 21, 2013

Rosa Koire, ASA, is the executive director of the Post Sustainability Institute. She is a forensic commercial real estate appraiser specializing in eminent domain valuation. Her nearly 30 years of experience analyzing land use and property value enabled her to recognize the planning revolution sweeping the country. While fighting to stop a huge redevelopment project in her city she researched the corporate, political, and financial interests behind it and found UN Agenda 21. Impacting every aspect of our lives, UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development is a corporate manipulation using the Green Mask of environmental concern to forward a globalist plan. Rosa speaks across the nation and is a regular blogger on her website: Democrats Against UN Agenda 21.

Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Opposes UN Agenda 21 and LOST

Stop 21 Texas — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 00:42:02 +0000

John Cornyn, U.S. Senate, Texas
Tel: (202) 224-2934

Thank you for contacting me regarding the United Nations (UN) Agenda 21 and the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST). I appreciate having the benefit of your comments on these important matters.

I will oppose any efforts that would impose Agenda 21 or UN policies regarding sustainable development in violation of U.S. sovereignty. As you may know, Agenda 21 is the UN plan for promotion of sustainable development. This plan was created at the UN Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992, and 178 countries, including the United States, signed the plan at that time. However, the 1992 plan imposed no legal obligations or implementation requirements on individual states.

Secondly, the third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea concluded in December 1982 with the drafting of the Law of the Sea Convention. This treaty seeks to establish rules on the use of the world’s oceans—specifically regarding freedom of navigation and mining of deep seabeds in areas beyond national jurisdictions.

I oppose LOST because it infringes on our national sovereignty, which is the foundation of our freedom. Our states, and our country, are struggling to keep up with the effects of globalization—the increasing free flow of ideas, information, goods, and capital across borders and around the world. One major challenge is making certain that our national sovereignty is protected, even as international commerce increases. This is no small matter, and one that should not be handled carelessly. We cannot allow a foreign country or an international organization to make decisions that should be our own exclusive province, based on our own national interests.

The United States must carefully evaluate the actions taken by international organizations to ensure that they are consistent with our national interests. As a representative of our nation, I will only support policies that serve to protect our citizens, our allies, and our national interests. As Americans, we take pride in our nation, and I will vigorously oppose any legislation or action that infringes upon that sovereignty.

I appreciate having the opportunity to represent Texas in the United States Senate. Thank you for taking the time to contact me.

Sincerely,

JOHN CORNYN
United States Senator

UN to Ban Guns? Action: Ban the United Nations!

Stop 21 Texas — Sat, 23 Mar 2013 04:16:00 +0000

Support H.R. 75 to Get US out! of the UN

This year Rep. Paul Broun (R-Ga.) reintroduced the bill that Ron Paul had introduced many times under the number H.R. 1146. This time its number is H.R. 75. Help keep America independent. Contact your representative and ask him or her to co-sponsor H.R. 75. Ask your senators to introduce a companion bill in the Senate.

Example Letter:

Please read a new article, “United Nations: On the Brink of Becoming a World Government” at
http://www.thenewamerican.com/world-news/item/13126-the-united-nations-on-the-brink-of-becoming-a-world-government

The last thing we need at this time is to lose our national sovereignty to a UN world government. This would mean losing our national independence and personal freedoms.

Please work to pass H.R. 75, the “American Sovereignty Restoration Act of 2013,” a bill that would end the membership of the United States in the United Nations, in both the House and Senate.

Among other reasons for withdrawing our nation’s membership in the United Nations are two very important ones as of 2013: Agenda 21 and the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST).

Getting out of the UN would help curtail U.S. involvement in the implementation of the UN’s Agenda 21, which in turn would help preserve our individual rights, especially private property rights, as well as our form of limited government under the Constitution. in fact, Section 8 of H.R. 75 would repeal the United Nations Environment Program Participation Act of 1973, thus freeing us from participation in UN environmental programs.

Regarding the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), Section 10 of H.R. 75 would “end any and all participation in any and all conventions and agreements with the United Nations and any organ, specialized agency, commission, or other formally affiliated body of the United Nations.” Thus passage of H.R. 75 would prevent the Senate from ratifying LOST, or if LOST would be ratified before the passage of H.R. 75, then Section 10 would guarantee that we would end all participation in LOST.

Please do work to pass H.R. 75 to get the United States out of the United Nations in both House and Senate. Our national independence and personal freedoms depend on it.

Fracking Is OK, Says Buried Report From New York State’s Health Department

Stop 21 Texas — Sat, 05 Jan 2013 21:17:02 +0000

The release of a conveniently long-lost report showing that fracking is safe puts New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo in a tight spot: continue to appease environmentalists by delaying further the development of the rich Marcellus Formation under his state, or letting the free market extract those resources and generate thousands of jobs and millions in revenue to the state.

Fracking Is OK, Says Buried Report From New York State’s Health Department

The New American
04 January 2013

A report favoring fracking that was buried for nearly a year was given to the New York Times yesterday by a whistleblower who “did not believe it should be kept secret,” according to Danny Hakim. The eight-page analysis summarizes “previous research [done] by the state and others, and concludes that fracking can be done safely.” Specifically, the report says:

By implementing the proposed mitigation measures, the Department expects that human chemical exposures during normal [fracking] operations will be prevented or reduced below levels of significant health concern.

The report went on to say that further study of the risks would be worthless because it would “involve making a large number of assumptions about the many … variables that influence the nature and degree of potential human exposure and toxicity.”

The report puts New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (shown) in a tough spot. On one side are the landowners over the Marcellus Formation in the southwestern parts of the state who have been leasing their land to drilling companies anxious to explore the potential of the formation. On the other are the environmentalists who are concerned about the risks of such exploration and the potential impact on people and the environment.

Cuomo has delayed making a decision on whether to allow fracking for nearly four years while an environmental study was being completed. Back in September Cuomo was about to allow some limited exploring, but at the last minute, he reversed course, ordering another full-scale study of the matter, which would put off making a decision for at least another year.

This pleased Cuomo’s good friend Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., an environmental activist whose sister just happens to be Cuomo’s ex-wife. Kennedy said at the time that he was delighted with Cuomo’s continued resistance to landowners and drilling companies who wanted to get started with the drilling:

I’m surprised how long he’s withstood the tide. I’m proud that he’s done that. There’s no other governor who’s just said “let’s hold off.” And he’s under, I can tell you, tremendous pressure by the industry and by others.

With the release of the long-buried report, that pressure is only going to increase. The Marcellus Formation is almost incomprehensibly large, extending nearly 600 miles from the Finger Lakes region of New York south and west into and through western Pennsylvania, down through Maryland and into West Virginia. When the U.S. Geological Survey studied the formation back in 2002, it concluded that, with the then-existing technology, there was 2 trillion cubic feet (TCF) available for recovery. In 2009, it revised its estimate to 262 TCF. Translated into dollars, Marcellus has about $200 billion dollars’ worth of recoverable reserves. And that, according to a study funded by the Marcellus Shale Coalition, translates into 250,000 new jobs. If Cuomo lifts the ban in drilling, Marcellus could create $11.4 billion in economic output and raise $1.4 billion in state and local taxes, according to the Manhattan Institute.

Fracking has already proven to be an important part of the U.S. economy, having created 1.7 million jobs last year alone with an additional 2.5 million jobs expected within the next three years.

The risks that the environmentalists are concerned about and are holding Cuomo hostage over are the risks that the fracking process could possibly pollute aquifers and wells. But according to Ronald Bailey at Reason magazine, the risks are minimal:

If oil and gas production actually resulted in detectable health risks, it would already be apparent. Why? Because something like 75,000 conventional oil and gas wells have been drilled in New York since the late 1800s, and 14,000 of them are still active.

But the environmentalists aren’t interested in logic or aren’t listening. One of the more boisterous is Frack Free Nation, which notes its opposition on its website with the following declarations, capital letters and exclamation points included:

Criminalize Shale Gas Extraction!

Regulations DO NOT prevent pollution.

Regulations ENABLE POLLUTION!

Regulators are trained and employed to ISSUE PERMITS — for pollution!

Then they asses [sic] monitory [sic!] fines for violations and spills — if we are lucky!!…

Therefore, these permits and associated regulations are CAUSING pollution.

The FACT is that this industry has a HORRIBLE safety record, which has left a toxic legacy everywhere it has gone.

The only way to stop the violations and stop the environmental destruction is by PROHIBITION…

Diatribes by some environmentalists remind one of the advice an old lawyer gave to his son:

If you have a case where the law is clearly on your side, but the facts and justice seem to be against you, urge upon the jury the vast importance of sustaining the law.

On the other hand, if the law is against you, or doubtful, and the facts show that your case is founded in justice, insist that justice be done though the heavens fall.

But, said the young man, how shall I manage a case where both the law and the facts are dead against me?

In that case, talk around it, and the worse it is, the harder you pound the table.

With the release of this conveniently long-lost study, no amount of table pounding is likely to change the conclusion: Fracking is safe, and Cuomo won’t be able to delay the inevitable much longer.

Wresting natural gas via fracking from tight shale formations a mile underground is one of man’s greatest accomplishments, and one that promises abundant, clean fuel for a century or more.

Natural Gas — the Coming Shale Gale

Natural gas production is now booming, thanks to new methods of obtaining gas from shale stone.

Energy Boom Could Make U.S. Largest Oil Producer by 2020

The growing energy boom in the U.S. could make it the largest global oil producer by the end of the decade, according to a new report.

The U.S. oil and natural-gas rush will create a total of 1.7 million jobs this year, according to a new study released Tuesday.
