Presidential State of Emergency

The United States is currently under a Presidentially declared National State of Emergency(see below). Under this condition the Rights of people guaranteed by the Constitution are suspended. The new President Designee will cancel the National State of Emergency and the Constitution will be the law of the land once again. Much re-education of our lawyers, judges, and law enforcement people will need take place do to the restoration of the basic rights of the people.

Notice: Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Libya On January 7, 1986, by Executive Order 12543, President Reagan declared a national emergency to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the actions and policies of the Government of Libya. On January 8, 1986, by Executive Order 12544, the President took additional measures to block Libyan assets in the United States. The President has transmitted a notice continuing this emergency to the Congress and the Federal Register every year since 1986.

The crisis between the United States and Libya that led to the declaration of a national emergency on January 7, 1986, has not been resolved. Despite the United Nations Security Council's suspension of U.N. sanctions against Libya upon the Libyan government's handover of the Pan Am 103 bombing suspects, Libya has not yet complied with its obligations under U.N. Security Council Resolutions 731 (1992), 748 (1992), and 883 (1993), which include Libya's obligation to accept responsibility for the actions of its officials and pay compensation.

Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency with respect to Libya. This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

GEORGE W. BUSH
THE WHITE HOUSE, January 2, 2003.



Many do not realize this, and since 1986 our constitutional rights have been on hold. What is even worse is the current admisistration is using this original national emergency with Libya as a loophole for the continuation of itself, and that the situation with Libya will probally never be resolved if THEY dont want it to. Hence you have a indefinitley lasting national emergency. This is why Bush acts the way he does, and gets away with it, for there is nothing 'legally' that anyone can do about it.
