Colorado Senator Proposes New Treason Statute

Washington (ANS Wire) Colorado Senator Douglas "Dooley" Neall (PNCP) today introduced legislation in the Senate that would vastly expand the list of "treasonable" activities. Neall said that with over a trillion dollars in federal funds at risk and a national debt exceeding ten trillion dollars, it is time to establish some rigid penalties regarding the abuse of fiscal controls. The high points of Neall's bill are (verbatim from the text of the bill): Section 6.1 - The solicitation or acceptance of a bribe, kickback, graft or other illicit payment by a government employee, whether elected or appointed, shall be tantamount to treason and prosecuted as such. Section 6.2 - The offer or payment of a bribe, kickback, graft or other payment for favors or preferential treatment to any government employee, whether elected or appointed, shall be tantamount to treason and prosecuted as such. Section 6.3 - The acceptance or offer of payment to a family member, relative, business associate, or professional representative (includes attorneys, accountants) in an attempt to gain favors or preferential treatment from an government employee, whether elected or appointed, shall be tantamount to treason and prosecuted as such. Section 7.1 - The offer or acceptance of economic influence regarding legislation before Congress shall be tantamount to treason and prosecuted as such. Section 7.2 - The payment of individuals, whether employees or service contractors, to attempt to influence legislation via monetary payments, gifts, entertainment, or other means shall be tantamount to treason and prosecuted as such. Most Washington insiders have little confidence that Neall's bill will make it out of committee hearings. A common quote coming from lobbyists and others familiar with matters inside the loop is, "Neall's bill will never fly. It's not the way we do things around here." However, some insiders say that Section 7.2 of the bill has thousands of D.C. lobbyists very nervous and that it puts their very livelihoods at stake. Senator Neall, at an early morning press conference, said. "This legislation has been long coming. This is the United States of America in the twenty-first century, not sixteenth-century Europe where governments were controlled by a small group of landowners who controlled the resources. As much as those behind bland gray desks in Washington and in the exaggerated opulence of Wall Street skyscrapers would like to believe, the real resources of this country are it's people, and the natural resources in the hands of what the financiers and political pundits call Flyover Country. Together, the senators and representatives from the flyover states have the votes to put this legislation on the books and to take back control of what rightfully belongs to the people, ALL the people of the United States."

They Must Think They're in Congress

A few days ago, the county commissioners in neighboring Boulder-Springs terminated their entire audit staff without notice. One of the commissioners, who wants to remain nameless for obvious reasons said, "We hired these people to look for theft and stuff. You know, like employees taking pens and notebooks, stuff like that. The next thing we knew this woman who headed the audit team was looking in management issues. Nobody said anything about looking into any of that. She's looking at policies, procedures--looking to make sure people are following the rules. Hell, we're commissioners, we don't have to follow any damned rules. We make the rules for regular people." When asked about particular policies that were being investigated the commissioner declined comment. More on this story as it develops. The Statesman admits to being very naive in thinking that county commissioners would have to follow the same rules as the rest of us. We assume that most of them have a run for Congress on their agendas.

Gonads OK (ANS) - SeemsFree, the world's largest retailer, today issued a statement denying complicity in the use of rigged vending machines in over 4,000 stores in the United States. Late yesterday afternoon, a federal subpeona was issued for all documents related to the company's dealings with game machine giant WagerzTech. Over the past few weeks, there have been hundreds of reports across the country about electronic vending machines that miscount or misrefund coins on a regular basis. As part ot fhe investigation, WagerzTech machines have been video taped in over 100 locations to analyze the aberrent operation. Analysis of the video indicates that as many as 8% of the total transactions result in the machine retaining fifty cents without delivering products, resulting in an estimated $80,000 per day going directly to the SeemsFree bottom line.

BeriCraft Aviation Takes Lead from SeemsFree on Fraud

Written by Marietta Sinclair

Solace Creek (ANS) - It was confirmed today that the Colorado Bureau of Investigation is looking in to allegations of fraud at the Colorado facilities of BeriCraft Aviation that are similar to allegations make against retail giant Seems Free in October. In BeriCraft's case, there is a twist. Instead of thousands of customers being ripped off by rigged vending machines, the victims the thousands of BeriCraft employees. Just months ago, BeriCraft acquired over seven hundred vending machines from WagerzTech, the same company implicated in the SeemsFree allegations. Nearly twenty percent of the vending transactions on the WagerzTech machines fail to dispense merchandise, and retain and average of fifty-cents of each dollar supposedly refunded by activating the coin return. In SeemsFree's case, insiders suggested that the retained refunds were being divided by SeemsFree and WagerzTech. Apparently the same thing is happening in the BeriCraft case. BeriCraft CEO Geoffrey Fynch has been "travelling" and the company has not returned calls from media.

Gideon Responds to Texas Attack

In a WebSpeech approximately one hour ago, Presidential hopeful Em Gideon responded to recent attacks by Texans and Texas supporters. The attackers were riled by the music that Gideon has playing on his campaign headquarters website Below is the full text of Gideon's speech. My Fellow Americans, I've been getting some knocks for the song that plays at my MySpace campaign headquarters Gideon 2008. Over the next day or two, we're going to put some of those letters up here for everyone to read, but my staff is busy making them "Family Friendly" first. Ok, so I happen to believe a lot of what that song says. I believe that of the worst things that ever happened to Colorado was when, like the song says, "someone taught the Texans to ski." We know throughout America, we've got an immigration problem. It's been at the top of my list, OK aside from nuking mosques, for several years now. How many of you even know that a whole bunch of the illegal aliens come to us through Texas? How many of you know that Texas advertises itself as a "Whole Other Country?" In my book, that makes Texans illegal immigrants as well. Let 'em stay there. We're tired of having them come to OUR ski resorts, drink OUR beer, and chase OUR women. When I am elected, I'm going to throw the whole darned state out of the Union. Until then, I'll proudly play "Texans" by Ron Chalice and his band during my campaign. Now we don't want the Texans to get hold of this song... So whatever you do, don't tell them that they can download it for free at Ron Chalice Music on MySpace DON'T TELL THEM! Em
