The ICLEI and Agenda 21 people could care less, as long as it passes.  The fact it passed, and advances the notion that climate change is real, is all that matters to those who would use such a crisis to take away our sovereign status as a free nation, and remove our individual property rights.

But how?

Because this country has a constitution that is designed to protect private property rights, the UN and its agenda 21 has not been able to get the federal government completely on board with certain planning initiatives.  Those plans include using global warming and climate change themes to advance private property rights destruction.  The language used towards these ends, containing group tested terms as “sustainability,” and “smart growth.”

These “positive” descriptives should not be so easily accepted.

Planning that restricts the use of one’s property beyond reason for the sake of stakeholders (a term for non property owners who want to decide what you do with your property)  is not at all smart.  It is not at all any more sustainable than when one manages the growth of their own vested interest.

In Michigan alone, the ICLEI at present still has these communities fooled into thinking they are doing the planet a favor with their participation in agenda 21.

• Ann Arbor     MI
• Dearborn     MI
• Ferndale     MI
• Flint     MI
• Grand Rapids     MI
• Traverse City     MI

The participation typically involves a subscription to software, which is used to assist the communities in determining its GHG emissions, and leveraging that in planning measures for centralization of communities, creating population “centers,” and fighting “urban sprawl.”

The term “urban sprawl” by the way, is another word set designed to advance the idea that humankind is like locusts on the face of the earth. It serves a dual purpose of guiding planning processes towards community centralization, and also provides a bit of cover for population limits, redistribution of wealth,  support of abortion, and child selection processes.

I should note that FEDERAL BLOCK GRANTS are being given as rewards to local communities to advance this agenda.  Although the congress would not directly support such an agenda directly, as it clearly violates the constitution, its actions in providing funds towards these ends should be seen as an abuse, and capitulation to globalist goals.

Agenda 21 is no joke.  Agenda 21 should not be taken lightly, and should be soundly repudiated in your community.

If your local community is mentioned above, request from your community leadership an explanation of WHY they are participating in a scheme that abrogates our natural rights of property ownership.  Call your congressman, and ask if they support block grants that reward climate change activities.

If they do, fire them.

These events are pretty decent turnouts given the population count in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  The Tea Party Express continues to draw out the large crowds, and today’s events in Cheboygan, Petoskey, Traverse City, Big Rapids, Grand Rapids, and Lansing will likely prove no exception.

The Traverse City event alone is expected to draw over 2000.

That is where I will be.

And seeing the decision of Bart Stupak to step aside from the pressure  is adding a new chapter to the story as the express continues to “take a victory lap” around the rest of the state.

And yeah..  we’re excited…  It is a big deal.

Official Michigan Stops of the express:

———————————

—————————————–

The Tea Party Express has been a great resource in acting as a beacon, to bring out folks who might have otherwise felt disenfranchised by the mad power grab in Washington.  It has also served as a good back up to the other groups that are fighting to help us retain our rights as provided for in the constitution.  The express is rolling through several states with a final destination of Washington DC on Tax Day, April 15.

In April, The Tea Party Express will be rolling through Michigan with stops in Ironwood on the 8th, Escanaba and Sault Sainte Marie on the 9th, Traverse City and Grand Rapids on the 10th, and Final Stops in Lansing and Detroit on the 11th.  Michigan Patriot Joane Fabiano will be riding with the Tea Party Express during its tour of Michigan:

The national tour will have six stops in Michigan over a three day period: April 9 in Escanaba and Sault Sainte Marie; April 10 in Traverse City, Grand Rapids and Lansing; and then to Sterling Heights on April 11.

Fabiano, who lives in Holt, said besides being a speaker, she will be on the Tea Party Express bus doing a daily blog as well as other social networking activities.

The recent passage of the federal health care reform bill will spark more of a crowd than the past stop by the Tea Party Express, Fabiano said.

By Email Deeann G. sends us this about the Traverse City Tea Party:

Ok everyone the time is near for our 2nd TEA Party of 2009 in Traverse City! I realize that most of you may have plans with family since it is also the Fourth of July, and I really appreciate the fact that you will be setting aside a few hours of your time on a very busy day to celebrate and exercise the freedoms that so many American Heroes fought and died for.

This is a very critical time for all Americans to make our voices heard regarding the governments wasteful spending of ours, our children’s and our grandchildren’s money. We need to unite in this cause and show our government, the President, Congress and the like that they WORK FOR US!

They need to be held accountable for passing bills that they don’t even bother reading and we need to stop allowing them to raise their own salaries and they need to re-read the Constitution and go back to actually following it. There are MANY issues that we need to bring to the “people that represent us” and hold them accountable and I believe that the TEA Party agenda is only the beginning of this cause…we are gathering in numbers across the Nation and those numbers are growing with each bill that passes, each unnecessary apology, and each dollar that is spent needlessly…we are getting frustrated and the TEA Party events are allowing all of our concerns to be heard uniformly. Please take a few hours out of your Fourth of July and unite with us! Dee

4pm at the Northeast Corner of the Traverse City Civic Center!  Wear your comfy shoes, bring your creative signs (family oriented) and join the other hundreds of people that share your concerns!
