If I Were President
BEFORE YOU READ THIS, LET ME WARN
YOU THAT THE JUDGMENTS ABOUT TO
HAPPEN WILL MAKE THE FOLLOWING LOOK
LIKE CHILD’S PLAY. The God who founded this country, blessed this country and is about to judge this country
is a holy God, He is a righteous God, a wrathful God. As is
stated in the book of Hebrews “He chastens every nation
He loves and scourges everyone He receives” so as to make
them sons. So America, the games are over; the crooks,
manipulators, do gooders are all finished.
There are no easy solutions to the web in which we are
ensnared. God took the easy way out when He destroyed the
world in times past. Now, because He has found a remnant
who has suffered to the shedding of their old lives, will He
spare America?? Has He invested too much of His life in
America to totally annihilate it?? Time and the reaction of
the people to His disciplining will determine the severity of
God’s judgment.
How will God judge America??? If He is, indeed, a
righteous God He will judge America as He judged Sodom
and Gomorrah, Hiroshima, and the world, in the days of
Noah. He will begin by annihilating Washington, D.C.
Now do not think I am any more drastic in my assumption
than were the people warning corrupted governments in
days of old. With God accomplishing that little task of
ridding America of its evil head enabling the people to
begin thinking for themselves, I have some ideas for “what
I would do if I were president”. I think I could accomplish
what needs be done in less than four years.
1. I would begin by making a worldwide apology for
our arrogance, false pride, for not being who we profess to
be—(that is, a nation under God), leading the world down
a path to hell. Then I would have all Americans get on
their knees and ask God to forgive us for throwing Him
out of our hearts and country, and instead building a nation
with a king and queen as the head.
Now let me ask all of you red blooded Americans —
could you in good conscience take 35 million dollars of
money stolen from the American people and spend it on a
big party of drink, dancing and orgy calling it an inaugural party???? Our forefathers fought the Revolutionary
War over less than what is taking place in America today.
Taxes without consent of the people — using a corrupted
16th Amendment as legal right to steal from the people.
The pomp and ceremony of our inaugural fiasco made
England's crowning of the queen look rather bleak. The
parade of red-coats was the ultimate of disgust.
News reports on the “Texas Seven” call them the most
dangerous wanted men in America. The most corrupted
hearts — the ones who lie, steal, cheat and even murder
and have a legal right to do so, are “the heads of our government”. Believe me, if Bush is really out to help the people, that money thrown away on a big party to satisfy a
few could have been spent on improving our prisons,
building power plants or whatever — helping “we the
people”. Anyone running for any government post is a
power hunger, self important egomaniac with a messiah
complex. And, most hired as government employees
usually cannot get a job in the real world or they are too
lazy to do a day’s work.
2. I would take away welfare and open the borders.
Immigrants founded this country and immigrants keep us
a melting pot of God’s heart. It is not the Mexicans or the
Asians who have screwed up our nation — it is the offspring of the Caucasians who founded our country —
white skinned, empty head and evil heart.
Am I angry?? You bet I am angry. If you are not angry
it is because you are either sound asleep or you do not give
a damn if America survives or dies.
3. I would make every church responsible for the
welfare of every member — that is the schooling, the
taking care of the old age, the orphans etc. And with no
help from the government as there will be no government
as we know it now. That would cut the church membership down to size and take the pride out of the growth in
numbers and not in inner stature. And, oh yes, for a
change, the pastors would be responsible for the spiritual
growth and would be accountable for every moral action
of himself and the congregation.
The religion of the land would be the one that filled the
hearts of the pioneers who founded our country and the
religion of the only true God, whose son is Jesus Christ.
All would not have to belong to a church. That would be
the only freedom of religion.
All other religions would have to leave the country and
go back to the country that was fashioned after the god that
they worship — the god they now bring into this country.
No more false temples. Either you belong to a living
entity called the “church” or nothing. God’s light still
shining on this country is the only reason we are yet the
most blessed country in the world.
4. All security for the so-called big-shots would be
removed immediately. Who in the hell do these little
criminals think they are to make us pay for the safety of
their lives??? In a righteous country, most of those we are
paying to protect would be in jail or hanged.
5. Every government pension would be stopped immediately. All people would work till they died. The church
would take care of the truly disabled. Folks, let me ask you.
Would you pay Hitler a salary after getting his country into
the state his country was in??? Why would we continue to
pay the ones who got us into this big mess???
6. All lettered “services” (OSHA, IRS, etc.) would be
annihilated immediately. And every person involved in the
carrying out the edicts of these dictatorial agencies would
make a public apology for the harm done to the business
world of America, and to the entrepreneurs who sweat
blood and tears against all odds and served the community with a business. Folks, it is pay-back time. All who are
responsible for stealing from the American people would
be responsible for their deeds of enslaving the American
people and given time in jail or death sentence.
7. All laws with no common good for the people would
be rescinded and no laws could be made ever again as the
problems would be the problems of the church.
8. Remove all useless city employees. Start with the
mayor. We do not need a mayor or a city manager. We need
no code enforcement officers as there will be no codes. Just
what if the people were held accountable for their actions?
Each restaurant would have its own drawing card.
Handicap parking would be an option. People who are lazy
and do not need or want to be rehabilitated may choose a
restaurant or place of business who caters to them. Having
lived with a handicapped person, I know we make cripples
out of them with our so-called good deeds. Permits and
codes have never done a thing for the health and safety of
a city, state or nation except cause heartache, a lack of free
enterprise, robot looking cities and buildings.
9. To become a policeman, lawyer, or anyone connected with the justice system, one of the prerequisites would
be three months or more in jail depending how long it took
him to understand how awesome is his job. Lying would
be called perjury for the police like it is for all of us peons
who pay their salaries.
10. Firemen would be just that — a man who helps put
out fires. In their free time they would be expected to keep
the city free of trash. No more inspecting buildings.
People who own the buildings are more concerned about
fires than someone who has no interest in the business.
The fire truck would be taken out only when needed to put
out fires. Grocery shopping and donuts and coffee sprees
with the big red truck would be over.
11. The fire and brimstone would take care of the state
capitol. Has anything beneficial every come out of a capitol of any kind???? Or, an alternative — if the state votes
to make the capitol a museum with all the sin committed
against the people of the state displayed in the museum —
then we let it stand.
Did you ever wonder why we have to get a permit
every five years to drive our car??? Or did you ever
wonder who the hell made up that moronic written test the
bastards at the DMV so gleefully give to us???? Did that
test make you a better driver??? And why isn’t the passing
grade given to the high school drivers a permit that would
last for life??? Would you clear thinking Americans not
just suppose that the more one drives the more skilled one
becomes, just assuming he learned right in the first place?
All state run institutions would be taken over by
private businesses or taken care of in the church. To hell
with the state. Did you ever wonder how many terrorists
the friskers in the air terminals have caught??? Did you
ever wonder how our airline service ever survives after the
heavy handed government finishes making hoop after
hoop to jump through and a never ending amount of
money spent on good appearances. Don’t be fooled by
that which looks so good to the eye.
12. Capital punishment would be by injection only. Away
with the electric chair. Any prisoner would be given every
opportunity to get rehabilitated before being executed.
13. All prisons would be institutions for rehabilitation.
Anyone treating the inmates with less respect than they
would want to be treated would be fired. Churches would
be held responsible for the upkeep of the prisons and the
programs for training the inmates emotionally, physically,
spiritually and vocation-wise so as to adjust to a society.
14. Now let us get a look at our judicial system. Our justice system is anything but that. Most judges lack common
sense, say nothing of the ability to judge correctly. Instead
of upholding the Constitution as they have sworn to do they
use the idiotic code book as the plumbline for judgment.
Susan Shaw is perhaps as fair as judges go in Orange
County, California. However, she also opened my eyes to
the power and the evil that resides in the hearts of the majority of judges. With a stroke of her pen she gave to the fire
department of Costa Mesa and the police department the
right to search and seize our warehouse. She had never been
to our warehouse — had no reason whatsoever to grant the
search, thus breaking our protection under the fourth
amendment to the Constitution. We were hopelessly helpless as they took us to court and did ever manner of evil
against us. However, our God is greater than man and
because our business belongs to Him, whether we survived
or not depended upon His protection and not the courts.
Their judgment is thundering down the road.
15. As far as foreign policy goes — sending any money
to Israel would be forbidden. I would not be so presumptuous as to take the money from the hard working
Americans and send it to any country without the consent
of the people.
The church is so backslidden that they interpret a
scripture in the Old Testament as a way to get blessed by
God by sending money to Israel. Can you believe such
garbage comes from the church leaders?
After the above house cleaning, which is just the tip of
the iceberg, we will once again see people taking on the
responsibility for their lives; thinking for themselves, and
yes, even being kind to one another and treating one
another as they want to be treated.
Now we are back to our grass roots — not to a democracy,
not to a republic, but to a theocracy. Anyone attempting to
set up a government that would have one person ruling
over another would be hanged by the neck unto death.

“Signs of the Times”
Contest Winner
We ran a contest in the December, 2000, issue of The
Town Crier, offering a $100 prize to the best
“Discernment of the Times” essay submitted. Our winner,
Cherie Wagner, from Pleasant Valley, New York, has
chronicled the dilemmas facing this generation of the
world’s citizens with depth and eloquence. We think you
will respect and agree with what she has to say.
The assaults on our fragile ecosystems seem endless.
The daily news blares in vivid detail the most current
problem and at the same time offers little in solution.
Instead they march on to the next news breaking event
worldwide.
Oil spills, energy crisis, the accelerating of global
warming, are just the tip of the iceberg of critical
situations confronting us.
Many problems stem from our dependence on fossil
fuels. Their extraction, mining, refining, transport and
combustion all have a profound effect upon the
environment.
We have failed to read the signs of the time and we
have been lethargic in developing safe alternative
forms of energy. We have not managed the resources
available and not effectively worked towards effective
conservation and face near crisis situations as we
rapidly continue to deplete limited supply.
Below are two Letters to the Editor published
last week in the Orange County Register and LA
Times respectively, from Don’s “pen of a ready
writer”.
“President Bush’s heart is in the right place, but his
head is not.
Charity is a transaction between individuals, thus
Charity helps people get back on their own feet.
Government grants are transactions between institutions, which only create more dependents and more
demand for more grants. Worse yet, 97.5% of federal
monies are taken by force by the IRS from hard-working, peaceful people. Thus federal money is STOLEN
money.
What will those churches do when 30, 40% or
more of their “charity” budgets are government
money, and the government asks them to do something that violates their moral codes, or lose their
funding? If there is such a creature as a devil, it is
government money for “faith based charities” because
this system of financing can only result in a government take-over of the churches. Thus, church leaders
who accept government money are selling, not only
their own souls, but the souls of their churches.
The best thing that President Bush and Congress
could do for faith based charities is to repeal the
A myriad of problems (signs) stretch before the world and impact all of us.
We are truly all connected and that which affects one eventually affects all.

coercive income tax and eliminate the criminal IRS. Then we
ordinary people could afford to
support the charities of OUR
choice, not the government’s.
And we’d be a Constitutional
Republic once again.”
`````````````````
“I keep reading about layoffs — Chrysler, J.C.
Penney, Crown books, and more — but never any
government agencies! Why not???
Government produces NOTHING. All wealth is
produced in the PRIVATE sector by BUSINESSMEN. Since each government job is supported by at
least two private-sector households, government
should eliminate at least one job for every two lost in
the private sector.
Otherwise, our economy will degenerate into a full
bore Socialist state where EVERYBODY works for the
government and NOBODY produces ANYTHING.
(Incidentally,
this
is
the
real
reason
Communism/Socialism collapsed in eastern Europe,
not because of America’s defense build-up.)
On the other hand, such a development might
awaken the American people and help them realize
that ALL governments are parasites that live off the
production of others. Then we could get our
Constitutional libertarian nation back.
The Chism Trail — by Shivaun Chism
Terrorism lurks like a deadly cobra, waiting to strike, maim, and destroy. We
witness these attacks stemming from outside our borders as well as from within.
Our hearts shutter each time we read of an incident with random killing by the
hand of a fellow classmate or employee.
Resolution of conflict seems far too often to follow a non-peaceful path. The
very basic skills of dissolving conflict peacefully seem almost non-existent.
Violence is often the end result that plays itself out in our neighborhoods daily.
Our economy, each day, follows a dizzy up-down roller coaster type ride.
The money markets of the world govern daily the destruction of lives that have
made money an idol and based their lives on its foundation.
Greed has ruled our lives as we build “bigger and better mousetraps” in a
never ending search to satisfy an insatiable appetite. We often live with
increasing desire to acquire more and more. We choose this lifestyle fully aware
that so many barely are able to sustain daily life for themselves and their families.
We have even mismanaged the use of our time. While the boy next door with
an absentee father wishes for someone to play ball with, we excuse ourselves
and run for the next gismo or trinket to busy ourselves with. Many times we fill
the space of our lives with everything imaginable (and some that is unimaginable), avoiding the emptiness of time. At this same point, we excuse ourselves
from the thoughts of responsibility to reach out and help others.
We have sat idle and handed the government larger and larger pieces of the
management of our collective and private lives. The result is that the government
has evolved from a point of being a government for the people to a government
that seems far removed from the people. We pay our hard earned dollars in ever
increasing taxes to a government that often attempts to intrude further and
further into our private everyday lives. Truly we relinquish our own responsibility
in the process.
I believe we each are called to a threshold where we must stop, evaluate,
comprehend that the time is now for our individual lives to change. Our communities, nation and world exist in an hour that demands radical change. We
have teetered ever so closely toward a disastrous edge of existence. While
wrapped in a smug sense of false security, we have ignored the signs before us.
Definitely change is called for. But not change for change’s sake. The times
require a return to principles held to be true. Tried, tested precepts that have
turned the tides of history are needed to bring restoration. A return to living
individually and collectively as a united nation under God, with liberty and
justice for all.
The time is not yesterday with all our greatness of history. The time is now.
The urgent call reaches beyond our shores throughout the world. The future lies
before each and every person to live each moment of life in a fuller dimension.
We are called to live compassionately, redeeming the land and the quality of
each person’s life. As we strive to live in this manner the redemption of our
existence hangs in the balance.
The challenge is before us. We have come so far and that we may go on and
continue to go forward. It is my hope and prayer that each individual live daily
in the recognition of the signs that surround us and that we each respond and
take an active role in molding our future.

A Timely Prophecy
House of Cards Falling
In mid-December, the Spirit of the Lord moved upon my heart and spoke
to me, “Man’s house of cards is about to fall down at his feet and I do have a
prepared people who are ready to build and to plant My Kingdom in the earth in
a measure that no man has seen heretofore. Those who have been watering and
bringing illumination (shining upon). My precious plants will now find themselves harvesting.
“I am taking My Body, whom I have fashioned in My Own likeness, and
I am forming them into a new threshing instrument with teeth. They will take
the ways of man and beat them small and cause them to blow away by the Wind
of My Spirit.
“Fear not anything that comes that seems to be a hardship to the people,
or a darkening of the earth, but know that I am moving in many ways to shake
mankind out of his satisfaction with his own ways, that he will open his eyes and
look for a better way. And, My people, you shall show forth the better way, the
way of My rule in the earth, for man’s kingdoms have held sway and brought
forth vanity and heatache, and My creation remains in its bondage.
“My seventh-day rest has come and I shall cause the earth to cease her
struggle to show herself as god and to bring forth righteousness. My Own Arm
shall save. My Own Arm shall deliver. The earth shall see My willing people in
the day of My power. Rejoice to see this day!”

Letters
The letter below was enclosed in a card with the
following message: “‘Blessed be the Lord, for
He has shown me His marvelous love.’
Psalm 31:21. Whenever I need you, you are
there, a hug, a smile, a silent prayer. Whenever
I need you, you are there, a gift of tender, loving
care. Giving thanks for the much-needed blessing of you!”
Dear Debbie,
I did get this card when I was there [at
Piecemakers] one time. It is perfect to send to
my dear Piecemaker friends. I don’t know how I
would have made it through this last year without your support, and kindness. I do believe that
God brought me to Piecemakers. It is a safe
place for me. I love you all very much and think
about you daily.
Thank you for everything. I will see you soon.
Love, Lucretia
Words cannot convey our many thanks to this
Piecemaker family for sharing both
Thanksgiving and Christmas with us. We both
felt the true spirit of these holidays. May the
year 2001 bring the best of all things to all of
this truly great Piecemaker family and
Piecemakers everywhere.
Sincerely,
Grandma Jean and
son Terry Johnson
Above is a reduced black and white copy of a delightful newsletter we received from a “country store” in
Japan, whose owners are customers and friends of Piecemakers. As you can see in the picture at the middle of
the page, some of the Piecemakers are photographed with our visitors, and Costa Mesa is one of only two
places marked on the map of the United States! Notice also (if you can see in the tiny pictures!) the amount
of Raggedy Ann and Andy merchandise in their store. These American classics are enjoying a “rebirth” not
only here at Piecemakers, but all over the world!

Readable Quote
The Chism Trail — by Shivaun Chism
From an article entitled “Framers Guaranteed Right to Bear Arms to Defend Against
Tyranny”, by Walter E. Williams, Insight on the News Magazine — February 19, 2001.
During last week’s Senate confirmation hearings, Sen. Edward Kennedy laid into
President Bush’s attorney-general nominee John Ashcroft about his strong support
for the U.S. Constitution’s second Amendment. Kennedy demanded that Ashcroft
apologize to the American people
For what did Kennedy think Ashcroft should apologize? In a speech, Ashcroft
said that the reason the Framers demanded a constitutional protection for “the right
of the people to keep and bear arms” was to provide a measure of protection against
tyranny in government.
Kennedy demonstrated gross ignorance about the founding of our nation...
Let’s you and I look at the Framers’ words to see whether they gave us the
Second Amendment so we could go deer and duck hunting or, as Ashcroft said, to
protect against tyranny in government.
Thomas Jefferson said: “No man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. The
strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms, as a last
resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.” “And what country can
preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people
preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. ...The tree of liberty must be
refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
James Madison said, “The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed
which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation...[where] the
governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.”
Tench Coxe said: “Congress [has] no power to disarm the militia. Their swords,
and ever other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American.
...The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state
governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people.”
Noah Webster said, “The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws
by the sword, because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a
force superior to any band of regular troops.”
George Washington said, “Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution
itself. They are the American people’s liberty teeth and keystone under independence.”

The U.S. Holocaust
A New Contest!
Any government or human being who will deprive another human being from making a living, subjects him
to a death worse than murder and more abominable than the German holocaust, for the death is as real but more
anguish is involved.
Any facet of the U.S. Government, from the IRS to the DMV to OSHA to the Health Department to the city
officials, that would subject any business to their unreasonable code books is guilty of this crime.
The citizens of the U.S. are being subjected to codes and laws that strangle the lifeblood from the fabric of
America. Time after time people would like to start a little business, but by the time the government puts them
through the bureaucratic hoops, all incentive and dreams are gone. This is the year of our Lord – one thousand
nine hundred ninety-nine – and we all are ensnared like the white people ensnared the black people with their
wicked hearts. Now we ALL are subjected to the same tyranny.

“David and Goliath” Update
The Chism Trail — by Shivaun Chism
On February 8, 2001, we appeared in small claims
court before Judge Elaine Streger. The Orange
County cockroach farm had taken us to court because
we refused to get a permit for food sold in our store
that was already permitted. I call it a cockroach farm,
for I have heard they raise cockroaches to plant in
kitchens owned by people who will not pay them or
bow down to their edicts, as we suspect they planted
in our kitchen.
After explaining to the judge that our food was
already permitted she withheld judgment until she
could further investigate.
When asked if she would use the Constitution or
Bible as her basis for judgment she said, “I have
sworn to uphold the Constitution.” We will see.
To be continued...

Our suit against inspectors Newe and Freeman is
still pending. We want no money, only that they are
both fired and pay our court costs.
