Announcement of Lefemine For Life for Congress campaign for 2nd Congressional Distr.

Statement by Steve Lefemine:
SC State House, north steps, Monday, September 18, 2006, 12:00 noon

Good afternoon. Today I am announcing my campaign for the US House seat in the Second Congressional District. I have run for US House three times previously as the nominee of the Constitution Party. This time I am running as an Independent, write-in candidate. The new computerized voter machines to be used in every county of South Carolina this election makes voting for a write-in candidate quite easy. There is a line-item for write-in candidates that the voter can push to enter, and then just type in the name of the person for whom the voter wishes to vote. I would ask the voters of the Second District to push “write-in” for the US House District #2 seat on Election Day, November 7th, and then spell out “Steve Lefemine.”

I ask the voters of the Second District for their votes as the only Christian constitutionalist candidate in this race. I believe in the Rulership of the Lord Jesus Christ over all nations; the Rule of Law founded in God’s moral law; and the Sanctity of Human Life, beginning at fertilization, with no exceptions. I call for the end of American involvement in the undeclared and therefore unconstitutional, and therefore illegal War in Iraq; for the security of America’s borders, including a temporary moratorium on immigration; for the protection of biblical marriage, and the right of the states to re-criminalize acts of sodomy; for the immediate revocation of America’s involvement in NAFTA, CAFTA, and the WTO, and the complete rejection of President Bush’s FTAA, the Council on Foreign Relations’ North American Union, and any other New World Order scheme to turn the Western hemisphere into a regional government like the European Union. I call for the withdrawal of the US from the UN, and the eviction of the UN from US soil.

The incumbent, Joe Wilson, is too often just a rubber stamp for the Bush administration, on important issues like our national sovereignty and going to war. For example, despite his own promise and pledge to the contrary, Joe Wilson helped surrender more of America’s sovereignty when he cast a critical vote IN SUPPORT OF the sovereignty, jobs, and manufacturing-stealing Central American Free Trade Agreement, in a midnight voting session on July 27-28, 2005. The New American magazine took note of Joe Wilson’s betrayal of his constituents and of his own word in its August 22, 2005 issue (“Vote-buying and Arm-twisting,” www.thenewamerican.com/artman/publish/article_1980.shtml ). A copy of this article has been included in the press kit, as well as a copy of Joe Wilson’s own Oct. 2004 letter to a SC citizen assuring him, “I can pledge to you that I will be an opponent against any type of free trade agreement due to its harmful effects on the U.S. market.” Joe Wilson lied. He proved he is willing to betray his own word and the people of SC, trading away American sovereignty, jobs, and manufacturing capacity, to bow to the wishes of President Bush, who personally went to Capitol Hill to pressure lawmakers to pass CAFTA.

Joe Wilson claims to be pro-life, and yet year after year, he votes for the huge, pork-laden, unconstitutional Health and Human Services appropriations bill, giving America’s largest chain of abortion centers, Planned Parenthood, over $100 MILLION dollars/year, through just the Title X birth control program and Medicaid alone. Planned Parenthood kills over 250,000 children/year by surgical abortion. Medicaid also pays for selected surgical abortions. Joe Wilson’s votes are helping to fund surgical abortions, chemical abortions, Planned Parenthood, and birth control drugs and devices for unmarried teens, even if their parents object to the government aiding and abetting their children to fornicate. Joe Wilson is NOT pro-life or pro-family !

Lastly, Joe Wilson unconstitutionally voted Oct. 10, 2002 to abdicate the power of Congress alone to declare war, and passed that power to the President. Joe Wilson was quoted in The State on Oct. 7, 2002, “If Saddam Hussein won’t disarm, then America will have to take action to terminate his ability to threaten us with weapons of mass destruction.” No, Mr. Wilson, Saddam did not have WMD’s for him to threaten America, and now over 2,600 American military lives have been lost, and nearly 20,000 wounded, in an unjustified, unnecessary, and immoral war, that you continue to support, still backing George W.Bush ! I believe the lives of America’s soldiers, sailors, and marines must not be sacrificed advancing the New World Order agenda ! Thank you for your attention. May God have mercy upon America, and may America Bless God. [end]

Steve Lefemine, director of a Christian Pro-Life, Pro-Chastity Ministry has served as a pro-life missionary since 1991, and has been involved in pro-life activism full-time since 1989. He presently directs Columbia Christians for Life, which brings a Christian pro-chastity and pro-life presence to the streets outside abortion centers and government high schools and USC, as well as to legislative activities at the South Carolina State House, and both state and federal elections.

Raised on Long Island, New York, he is a 1977 graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY with a B.S. in General Engineering. Having graduated from the Airborne School at Ft. Benning, Georgia while a cadet at West Point, he was awarded the Army Parachutist Badge. He began active duty service as a field artillery officer with the US Army in 1977, and successfully completed the Field Artillery (FA) Officers Basic Course, and the FA Cannon Battery Course, as well as the Motor Officer Course. He served with the 25th Infantry Division at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, and with a Training and Doctrine Command unit at Ft. Hood, Texas. Lefemine served on active duty with the US Army until 1982, during which time he was awarded two Army Commendation medals. He left active duty with the rank of Captain in 1982, and resigned from the Individual Ready Reserve as a Major in 1993.

Employed by Michelin Tire Corporation in 1982, he served as an industrial engineer in the semi-finished products plant in Anderson, SC until 1988. Following employment at Michelin, he served on the campaign staff of a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Additional achievements include certification as a Private Pilot, and graduate of the US Army’s Infantry Officer Advanced Course while a Reservist.

He is 50 years old, has never been married, and presently lives in Cayce, SC.

Steve has been active politically with both the Republican Party (formerly) and the Constitution Party (formerly). He has been seated as a delegate to the state GOP convention. Later, he was the Lexington County member of the state executive committee for the Constitution Party of SC. He also served as a member of the Constitution Party’s National Committee. Steve Lefemine was the Constitution Party candidate for South Carolina State Senate District #26 in November 2000; for the U.S. House of Representatives special election for District #2 on December 18, 2001; for the U.S. House of Representatives District #5 in November 2002; and for the U.S. House of Representatives District # 2 in November 2004. As of the end of December 2004, he has separated from the Constitution Party because of their compromise on the Sanctity of Life plank of the CP national platform, as well as their unbiblical ecumenical practices, and unbiblical violation of God’s created order vis-à-vis the roles of men and women. Lefemine is currently an Independent considering the possibility of running for the U.S. House of Representatives District # 2 as a write-in candidate in the November 7, 2006 election.

PRESS CONFERENCE:
South Carolina State House, north steps
Monday, September 18, 2006 12:00 noon

Lefemine 8-Point US House Second District Campaign Platform

1. RULERSHIP OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (Messiah) – Confession of the Lord Jesus Christ (Messiah) as the Ruler of Nations, including America !
As stated well by the National Reform Association (http://www.natreformassn.org/) in its Statement of Purpose (#1.), “Jesus Christ is Lord in all aspects of life, including civil government. Jesus Christ is, therefore, the Ruler of Nations, and should be explicitly confessed as such in…” [the Preamble of the United States Constitution].

2. RULE OF LAW – Acknowledgment of God’s Law as the moral foundation of our laws.
Will co-sponsor HR 1070 – Constitution Restoration Act (http://thomas.loc.gov/) removes jurisdiction from US Supreme Court and lower Federal Courts from preventing acknowledgment of God (such as public prayer and Ten Commandments displays). The US Supreme Court stated in Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States (1892), “Christianity, general Christianity, is, and always has been, a part of the common law…not Christianity with an established church… but Christianity with liberty of conscience to all men,” and, “Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the Redeemer of mankind. It is impossible that it should be otherwise; and in this sense and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian.”

3. DEFEND SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE – Ban all abortion in America.
Will co-sponsor HR 552 – Right to Life Act which recognizes the God-given, legal personhood of all unborn human beings from fertilization, thereby ending ‘legalized’ abortion, and HR 776 – the Sanctity of Life Act of 2005 – which also removes appellate jurisdiction from the US Supreme Court, and removes all jurisdiction from the lower Federal Courts, to review abortion cases, thereby protecting this bill from being overturned by the Federal Judiciary. Will absolutely not vote for HHS Appropriations bills that fund surgical abortion, chemical abortion, and Planned Parenthood, as has incumbent Congressman Joe Wilson, year after year. Joe Wilson has voted to send $100’s of millions of our taxdollars to Planned Parenthood (255,000 abortions/yr).

4. END WAR IN IRAQ – Oppose America’s undeclared, unconstitutional, illegal War in Iraq.
As stated publicly in November 2002 before the commencement of major combat operations in March 2003, I would have OPPOSED the unconstitutional, oath-breaking, Iraq War Resolution passed by Congress, which Joe Wilson voted FOR on October 10, 2002. I support the speedy withdrawal of all American troops from Iraq.

5. SECURE AMERICA’s BORDERS – Support immediate temporary moratorium on immigration.
Secure American borders using US troops withdrawn from the War in Iraq, especially the Mexican border. Enforce immigration laws and deportation of illegal immigrants. Oppose Bush’s amnesty plan for illegal aliens.

6. DEFEND SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE – Prevent sodomite so-called “marriage.”
Support re-passing the Marriage Protection Act passed by US House on July 22, 2004 removing jurisdiction from the US supreme Court and the lower Federal Courts from overturning the Defense of Marriage Act.

7. SAVE AMERICA’s JOBS and MANUFACTURING – Support immediate revocation of America’s involvement in NAFTA, CAFTA, and WTO. Joe Wilson cast a crucial vote to pass CAFTA (HR 3045) in a midnight session vote July 27-28, 2005.
Completely oppose Bush’s FTAA, and the one-worlder CFR’s North American Union, and any New World Order scheme to turn the Western Hemisphere into another E.U.

8. RESTORE AMERICA’s SOVEREIGNTY – Will co-sponsor HR 1146 – American Sovereignty Restoration Act – removes the US from the United Nations; and removes the UN from US soil.
