From her Web Site www.house.gov/kaptur
Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur is a member of the powerful House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee and a champion for the National Guard and its role in defense of America. She is the recipient of the National Guard Association of the United States’ Charles Dick Medal of Merit recognizing her stalwart support of the U.S. military and, specifically, the National Guard. The medal is named in honor of the late Major General Charles Dick, NGAUS president from 1902 to 1909, and general in the Ohio Guard who later served in the U.S. House and Senate.

So, maybe the above is her Disclaimer.?
But then there's this "new" posting on her Web Site;

THE COST OF CAMPAIGNING FOR PRESIDENT
Oct 5, 2007
~snip~
It's hard to imagine a Presidential candidate staying unbought under such immense pressure to raise money. Inevitably, those candidates have to turn to the superrich or to bundlers, to special interests and unsavory characters who care only about themselves and their special interests and very little about our country.


9 years

In 1998 my father died. October 14th. He had been very ill for a long time and I didn't speak to him for the last 10 years he was alive. I hated him. I didn't feel anything like loss. I felt as though a very bad part of my life had ended with justice. I was abused. No need to go into that.

This was also the time when my Constitutional Rights began to be violated. In particular, the 4th Amendment.

US Constitution Amendment 4

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
http://www.findlaw.com/casecode/constitution/

The method of this violation and the consequences to me have been devastating. In the last 9 yrs I have lost all meaningful relationships.
I am totally isolated.
My health has declined,
I'm living way below the poverty level and
I haven't been OUT of this tiny apartment for more than necessities (grocery store, carry out) since the year 2000,
mostly, if not all due to loss of future income,
loss of meaningful relationships
and all friendships,
and loss of family ties.
ALL the result of the devastating effects of having my Constitutional Rights removed.

On 9/11, In my life far away from New York City or Washington, DC everything changed.

I lost All Liberty.

The insidiousness of the government Not Honoring your birthright and looking the other way when citizens are violated in the most unlawful, personal ways makes me question the Flag.

I've lost my Country. The Constitution doesn't work in my life, it doesn't apply. My fathers Great-Grandparents came to the shores of America. My mothers family came from Canada many moons ago. I am thoroughly an American citizen 284 ** ****.
I live in fear. I am in a situation that I cannot explain. Not to you, not to a lawyer, not to another person. Because OF the perfect execution and horrific effects of the peeling away of one freedom, one liberty at a time. You cannot explain, the cumulative effect becomes overwhelming. I've tried.
You have questions. I can't answer them. What has been done to me, and the terror over the past several years I've felt as a result is mind boggling.

I had friends, family relationships, dreams, hopes, a future.
I'm a real person whose Constitutional Rights have been violated. I've lost my rights. I'm not some illusionary citizen who got disappeared or placed in some Halliburton built prison camp. I am not psychotic or in need of some pharmaceutical to control synapses.

I have experienced an intrusive assault on my life,
US Constitution Amendment 4
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures.

Not having this is a fear you can taste. Having your very person violated. Listening devices, mail stolen, personal property disappearing from your home - some shadowy figure with a key, your computer hijacked and monitored and messed with.

Why should you care? This is your country. It's our Constitution.

The Constitution (Article 2, Section 1) provides that before assuming office the President must take the following oath or affirmation: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

I, (Senator - Congressman/woman), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; 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 discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

AND

I've requested help from members of both Houses. 9 years and Nothing more than a "get a lawyer" from my Congresswoman, Marcy Kaptur 9th District Ohio.
The names of those in the Congress and Senate who have done nothing -
would stop you cold.

I am 53 years old and have had the last 9 years of my life violated in ways that would make you sick.
Every person I talk to, every blog I read, Every person who has posted, has additionally had their rights either violated or compromised.
