ESSAY 66
THE
"OUR CONSTITUTION IS OUTDATED"
MYTH
The radical socialists have circumvented our constitu-
tion through select law enforcement and by creating "new
laws" by Supreme Court decisions (See previous essays). In
effect, a new constitution is being created before our eyes.
There are already efforts to call a constitutional convention
to legalize what already is being practiced.
This places our military in an awkward position. We who
have served our country by joining the military took an oath
to defend the Constitution of the United States against all
enemies, foreign and domestic. Here is a transcript of the
OATH OF OFFICE (DA FORM 71--Ref. AR 135-100) that I signed
2 OCT 67:
I, John Everette Russell O2 335 295 having
been appointed an officer in the Army of the United
States, as indicated above in the grade of 1LT do
solemnly swear (or affirm) that I WILL SUPPORT AND
DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES
AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC [Italics
mine], that I will bear true faith and allegiance
to the same; that I take this obligation freely,
without any mental reservation or purpose of
evasion; and that I will well and faithfully dis-
charge the duties of the office upon which I am
about to enter; SO HELP ME GOD.
What are we to do? Shall we be true to our word? Or shall
we ignore the erosion of freedom and hope it will reverse on
its own accord? This would be naive.
The Fabian Socialists who have subverted our Constitu-
tion will not reverse themselves. They will have to be con-
verted back to our Constitution or else be removed from
power.
I cannot take part in the violent overthrow of our
government, and I will not advocate that others do it. It
must be accomplished through education and the ballot box.
