“Ironically, 99 years ago this week, a train left Newark, N.J., for Jesup Station, Ga., carrying some of the wealthiest, most powerful people in the world. They met in secret at the Jekyll Island Club and laid the plans to create the Federal Reserve System. “Another group of people took a train this past week from Newark, N.J., for Jesup Station, Ga., en route to the same Jekyll Island Club. The people in this group are not among the wealthiest people in the world, but they are among the most powerful; they are some of the leaders of the growing freedom movement. Nearly a hundred years ago, a meeting at Jekyll Island produced the Federal Reserve, which now controls our economic destiny. The current meeting at Jekyll Island, organized by the We the People Foundation, seeks to produce a plan to control the Federal Reserve and restore our economic freedom.” Quoted from Here Comes The Freedom Movement by Henry Lamb, published in WorldNetDaily, May 23, 2009. New: Freedom Movement Coalition On May 21st and May 22nd, an unprecedented gathering of the nation’s Freedom Movement leaders was held in Georgia at the Jekyll Island Club Hotel. The planning meetings, coined the “Jekyll Island Project,” were hosted by We The People Foundation for Constitutional Education, Inc., chaired by Bob Schulz. A highlight of the gathering was a special ceremony held in the Federal Reserve Room at the Club, specifically to establish a “righteous record” to supplant the secretive deliberations which occurred in that same location in 1910 to conceive the (unconstitutional) Federal Reserve Act of 1913. Beloved Freedom leader G. Edward Griffin, author of The Creature at Jekyll Island, spoke about the 1910 gathering and the importance of the current leader meeting in the location, at this particular time. Bob Schulz followed with a talk entitled “A New Record for America.” The Acknowledgement Scroll Following the talks given by Griffin and Schulz, Bob Schulz read a specially prepared scroll which acknowledged the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of The United States of America and the Bill of Rights as the greatest governing Documents ever given to mankind. The scroll proclaimed the commitment of each leader to dedicate and consecrate their lives to uphold, preserve and defend The Principles contained therein. Others attending the event at Jekyll Island were invited to sign the Scroll, symbolizing The People of America. All were deeply impacted by the experience. Copies of the document are being prepared, with a blank space in place of the (May 21, 2009) date now included in the original. Those copies will soon be available for anyone wishing to schedule an “Acknowledgement and Dedication” meeting in their state, city, community, school, organization or home. The Scroll will be mailed in a plastic tube which can be used to protect and archive the document in that state’s Citizen Vigilance Center, or elsewhere. The Opening Ceremony The Opening Ceremony in the Club Ballroom began with the Processional of three Flags symbolic to the occasion: the current flag; the Betsy Ross flag featuring the thirteen colonies; and the Bennington “Don’t Tread on Me” flag which was commonly used around the time of the American Revolution. There was a reading about the Sacred Symbols of Freedom, followed by the singing of the National Anthem, and recitals of The Pledge of Allegiance and The American’s Creed. “Benjamin Franklin” read his comments made at the 1789 Constitutional Convention, which was followed by a stirring Invocation. Bob Schulz gave a Welcome Address and the ceremony concluded with the singing of the National Hymn, “God of our Fathers,” often referred to as the Constitution Hymn. All joined in a rousing call “Let Freedom Ring!” Attendees then followed the flags from the Club Ballroom to the Federal Reserve room in a silent walk dedicated to the Founding Fathers and those patriots who gave their lives and fortunes to establish America.

The unconstitutional threats of increasing concern to the American people constitute a lengthy laundry list of unlawful acts of government which are rapidly giving rise to the concerns of the American public people as they see their Liberties, in practical form, erode with each passing day. The violations include: RFID personal tracking technology, government controlled transportation choke points, illegal surveillance, undeclared wars, unconstitutional direct taxes on labor, international treaties which purport to supersede the legal sovereignty of the nation, electronic election fraud, America’s unconstitutional fiat currency (the U.S. “dollar”), unconstitutional control of firearms by federal authorities, sustainable development and the new world order agenda which seeks to erase all national borders (and the Liberties of America guaranteed by our Constitution.) Referring to themselves for the first time as a “coalition”, these Freedom Movement leaders agreed that the imminent risks to our Republic require a united front in defense of the Constitution, openly acknowledging the challenges that have, until now, prevented the Freedom Movement from coming together and achieving mass support. They openly invited all other leaders in the Freedom Movement to join the Coalition. The die has been cast: support for the 2009 Continental Congress was unanimous. Spontaneously, the Freedom Movement Leaders in attendance agreed they would henceforth serve as the Organizing Committee for CC 2009. Each pledged their organization’s support to create awareness, share resources and promote participation across all fifty states and the District of Columbia.

Cdr. Eric Cunningham Oath Keeper Author: Combat Arms Survey http://www.oath-keepers.blogspot.com/ The meetings culminated with lively debate about the proposed CC2009 delegate nominee criteria, the decentralized process for each state to openly and autonomously elect its own delegates, potential meeting sites and dates for the event, including marketing and advertising support. It was further agreed that the leader group would serve as the Organizing Committee for CC 2009. Sub committees were appointed for Delegate Credentials, Facilities and Fundraising. Documentary Coming Next Month Work is now underway to create a documentary of the historic gathering which seeks to educate and activate Americans about the nation’s constitutional crisis, the Jekyll Island Project meetings, and Continental Congress 2009 as the appropriate next steps for a free people to pursue to peacefully restore The Republic. A release date just prior to July 4th is planned.

Ah, flattery.
Just substitute the word "entropy" wherever liberals write "diversity" and everything makes sense.
