Is It Just Corporate Free Speech?
April 222010
In a ruling sometimes characterized as protecting “corporate free speech,” the US Supreme Court held this month that “the Government may not suppress political speech on the basis of the speaker’s corporate identity” in the case of Citizens United vs the Federal Elections Commission and my support for the free speech rights involved found me in some strange company while this landmark legal decision caused some other people to change their minds or to consider changing their policies, as I show in this video.

http://RevolutionNews.us — December 2009 — Deliberately timed to coincide with the start of the United Nations climate conference in Copenhagen, the Environmental Protection Agency on Monday declared that carbon dioxide, a naturally occurring gas thats essential to life on Earth, poses a threat to human health and welfare. This determination clears the way for the federal government to begin restricting energy production and restructuring the entire American economy.

In the fifth DVD of the “UFO Hypotheses” series, Collier, a UFO contactee since the age of eight, speaks openly and candidly to a small crowd of about twenty people on Easter Day, 1995. Collier shares the Andromedan ETs’ perspective about a great many things, including the pyramid structure of regressive ETs that control the highest levels of the shadow government of the United States. Collier says that the human ETs from Andromeda warn of an upcoming abuse of power by the National Security Agency (NSA) now evidenced by Patriot Acts 1 and 2, passed by a witless Congress, which not only upends our Constitution and constitutional form of government, but also makes Congress themselves irrelevant.
