Why Bush Will Bomb Iran

There has been a lot of talk lately about bombing Iran. There are allegedly plans that the Pentagon has to wipe out Iran military in three days. I believe that these plans are probably real. The question is if they will be carried out. Or maybe the question is if they will be carried out while Bush is acting puppet or if it will be the puppets puppet predecessor. So I think that the puppet masters who pull W's strings will have Bush attack Iraq before his term ends. Just as his father invaded Somalia in 1992. Bush Jr. will attack Iraq so that his predecessor will not have to take the heat. The next president can say something like never surrender, or we can't cut and run.
Resistance Is Futile: Census Bureau Turns Americans Into Info Kiosks

With all the fuss made over the 300 millionth American, the U.S. Census Bureau enjoyed an unaccustomed moment in the limelight, as the work done by this government agency is seldom considered glamorous enough to warrant much coverage in the media. Article One, Section Two of the U.S. Constitution authorizes an enumeration of the population to be taken every ten years. The only purpose for this tabulation authorized by the Constitution is to figure our how to divvy up the House of Representatives. But while the Founding Fathers instituted the census as a tool to safeguard the liberties of the Republic by making sure each person is properly represented numerically in the national ...
Pelosi Risks Losing Support by Funding Pet Projects (Update1)

Aug. 6 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said last year that she would be happy to ``do away with'' the practice of funding members' pet projects, though she knew it wasn't ``realistic.'' This year proves how right she was. Thousands of so-called earmarks still adorn spending bills, including 15 from Pelosi in a defense measure. Their continued popularity shows how difficult it is to change a system that allows members to bring federal money home for their constituents. Polls show Democrats aren't getting credit for what they say is a major overhaul of the earmark system. Democrats, who never promised to abolish the practice altogether, say they ...

According to the Washington Post, House Minority Leader John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) disclosed elements of (a secret court decision declaring a key element of the Bush administration's wiretapping efforts illegal) in remarks Tuesday to Fox News as he was promoting the administration-backed wiretapping legislation. Boehner has denied revealing classified information, but two government officials privy to the details confirmed that his remarks concerned classified information. The WaPo article also says, Commenting on Boehner's remarks, Rep.

Generation F – Rise of the Brown Shirts

I’m calling them Generation F. F for Fear. I’m referring to those who were between the ages of 12 and 20 when the 9/11 attacks occurred. These kids are now 18 to 26 and they grew up in a time of unprecedented fear, a fear that I would argue was worse that the fear we experienced during the Cold War. All these kids have known is President Bush. They grew up hearing all the propaganda and have come to truly believe that Americans need to sacrifice freedom for security. They believe we need to be fighting them over there so we won’t be fighting them here. These kids are also at a severe disadvantage. They haven’t been taught history properly nor do they truly understand ...
Obama Follows the Neocon Mass Murder Script

It is a race to see who can kill more people. “As President, Barack Obama would order attacks on terrorist camps in Pakistan even if its president, Gen. Pervais Musharraf, refused to give permission and would link American aid on Pakistan’s progress in rooting out its terrorist havens,” writes Marc Ambinder for Atlantic Online. “That stance, one part of the multifacted counterrorrism strategy Obama unveils this morning, is tougher than the more considered approach of the Bush Administration, which has generally avoided antagonizing its ally in public.” In other words, Obama’s selection strategy consists of outdoing the neocons and he really harbors no ...
Interim Assessment of the Highly Successful Destruction of Iraq Due

Once again, they take us for complete idiots. “A progress report on Iraq will conclude that the U.S.-backed government in Baghdad has not met any of its targets for political, economic and other reform, speeding up the Bush administration’s reckoning on what to do next, a U.S. official said Monday,” reports NBC News, the corporate media propaganda outlet owned and operated by General Electric, makers of cruise missiles, Stealth bombers, B-52 bombers, AWACS, and the NAVSTAR spy satellite system, the sort of stuff used up in record numbers inside Iraq and Afghanistan, thus ensuring mega-profits for the merchants of death and destruction. In fact, the “U.S.-backed ...
The Globalist Rule of Law

To the global elite, the meaning of the phrase “Rule of Law” has been redefined according to a global philosophy that does not embrace the Sovereignty of nation-states nor the U.S. Constitution. A perfect example is John B. Bellinger, the Legal Adviser to the Secretary of State and the principal adviser on all domestic and international law matters to the Department of State, the Foreign Service, and the diplomatic and consular posts abroad. He is also the principal adviser on legal matters relating to the conduct of foreign relations to other agencies and, through the Secretary of State, to the President and the National Security Council. Mr. Bellinger is the consummate ...

Beginnings 06/13/07 "ICH" -- -- An all too familiar and ominous echo is reverberating through the American landscape, once more blasted into the airwaves, and our minds, through the Ministry of Propaganda and its merry bunch of sycophants and stenographers. For yet another consecutive year since three monolithic towers were demolished, imploded and systemically brought down onto their own footprints in a catalyzing event unleashing a new American century, Americans are hearing the fiery rhetoric of imminent danger, a cocktail of fear, terror and warmongering fed our enemy-addicted culture, aimed both at stirring conflict with Iran and conditioning our minds into accepting the ...

06/13/07"ICH" -- -- A few months ago I wrote an article talking about human sacrifice and slavery and how human kind had moved away from those institutions when we had educated ourselves enough to realize that these were not honorable or sane things to do to one another. The reason I write this today is to further explore the concept that war is slavery and human sacrifice all rolled up into one vile package. The reason I say war is slavery is that we have trapped ourselves into believing that we cannot live in a world without war because it is and has always been with us. I believe the people who practiced those two aforementioned subjects said the same thing about them as ...
What I Learned About Being a Dick-Head

Visitors to the San Diego Zoo today had a surprise in store for them - the chain gang trio (Bush, Cheney and Condi) were bobbling their heads and performing their antics, dressed in prison stripes and waving big money around. I got to wear the Cheney head, which I reluctantly admit, means that I spent the morning being a Dick-head. As always, I never pass up the opportunity to learn from my experiences, so while I stood there on the corner of Park Blvd. & Zoo Place, telling everyone walking by that they should be in Iraq, I came up with a short list of observations. I'll share them with you, in case you were considering becoming a Dick-head yourself one day. First - getting inside ...

THE RON PAUL EFFECT

The times, they are a changin' – and the signs are all around us. The American people are sick unto death of the Iraq war, and this growing dissatisfaction with American foreign policy spans the political spectrum: it isn't just the Left that is singing "we ain't marchin' anymore," it's moderates and even conservatives. The recantation of Walter "Freedom Fries" Jones was the harbinger of a mounting trend, and as disaster piles on fresh disaster in the killing fields of Mesopotamia, the conservative case for the war gets harder to make – and more prominent figures on the Right are dissenting from the Bush-neocon orthodoxy. Conservative ...
AMERICAN VS. UN-AMERICAN IT'S IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCE

A shocking news report recently came across my desk (Associated Press, 30 April 2007, by H. R. Weber). It revealed the tragic account of a 92-year old woman, Kathryn Johnston, who was killed (murdered) by police officers in Atlanta, Georgia, when they made a forceful, "no knock" drug raid on her home on November 21, 2006. According to the report, this spunky lady kept a loaded gun in her home (which is something that every red-blooded American should also be doing these days). When the police, in plain clothes, came bursting through her door without warning, she fired at them. The police retaliated by firing 39 shots, with only five or six hitting her. She was killed by one hit ...

On this Memorial Day that honors those that have fallen in battle to defend our freedom, let all men hear my words. I am a free man in body and in spirit and I bow down to no one. Nor will I bow down to this illegitimate government that tries to wrap us in chains against our will. I shall resist with all my soul, attempts to break my free spirit and that of other free Americans. I shall not bow down to the socialists who use the government to reward those that are undeserving, with the sweat of my brow, my blood and my tears. I shall not bow down to the environmentalists who use the government to pass laws to rob me of my constitutional rights. I shall not bow down to a government who ...

Part 1. Judas Kyl & his "Thirty Pieces of Silver" Once upon a time in Arizona, there was a US Senator named Jon Kyl. He began his career as a lawyer, became president of the AZ Chamber of Commerce and eventually became AZ Republican Party Chair, ran for Congress and ultimately for the US Senate. He loved the power of being a US Senator, but there was something missing. Rather than having to run for re-election periodically trying to convince voters not to hold him accountable for his voting record, he really wanted to be a judge. Not just a county or state judge, but a federal judge with a lifetime appointment regardless of the outrageous decisions he might deliver or how ...

We are told that over-population is the greatest threat facing planet earth. Daily, we are given lectures of how we humans are screwing up the environment, damaging the earth’s “fragile” eco-system, killing the birds, and polluting the air and water. Forked-tongued politicians, finger-wagging bureaucrats, and a choir of “green” organizations moan an off-key chorus of alarm about the human “footprint” on earth. We are blamed for over-fishing the seas, deforestation of wooded areas, droughts and desertification, wildfires and floods. We cause congestion in the cities, sprawl in the suburbs, and terrorize the creatures in the countryside. It is obvious from ...
GEORGE W. BUSH IS GOP's BILL CLINTON

Those of you who heard my radio program back in 2001 know that I predicted then that George W. Bush would do to the Republican Party much the same thing that Bill Clinton did to the Democratic Party. However, I must confess, I could not then realize the magnitude of that prediction. Most of us remember that it was the election of Bill Clinton in 1992 that was the impetus for the Republican revolution of 1994. If you recall, a congressional election sweep of the magnitude of 1994 had not been seen in the previous seventy years. It is a truism that Bill Clinton helped to elect more Republicans than the Republican National Committee could ever dream about. Now, the same thing is happening ...
Next Task For Ron Paul: ISOLATING Real Adversary, Taking Offensive

(Apollonian, 23 May 07) To Isolate or NOT to Isolate--that is the question, problem, and task for Presidential candidate, Texas Congressman Ron Paul, and it has to do with that distinct anti-Ron Paul force, that anti-freedom, anti-Christ element of proverbial "Powers and Principalities" understood by Christian St. Paul fm Epistles of New Testament (NT). For this anti-Christ force is CERTAINLY OUT TO ISOLATE Ron Paul, pretending candidate Paul is "not serious," for example. Heavens, but what now to do? And note Ron Paul has already elevated presidential candidate's debate as by means of his so effective rebuke to Rudy Giuliani at South Carolina debate, 15 May, when ...
In the Name of Patriotism (Who are the Patriots?)

For some, patriotism is “the last refuge of a scoundrel.” For others, it means dissent against a government’s abuse of the people’s rights. I have never met a politician in Washington, or any American for that matter, who chose to be called “unpatriotic.” Nor have I met anyone who did not believe he wholeheartedly supported our troops wherever they may be. What I have heard all too frequently from various individuals is sharp accusations that because their political opponents disagree with them on the need for foreign military entanglements, they were “unpatriotic, un-American, evil doers deserving contempt.” The original American patriots were ...

Do they like that a radical Muslim goverment will be replacing a secular goverment in Iraq? Do they like Americans protecting Muslim soil and shedding American blood to protect that government? Do they like that the 1 million plus Iraq Christians are being purged from Muslim soil without a word from Bush? Do they like Bush trying to give 1/2 dozen of our ports to Saudi Arabia (While your at it, ask if they miss their 15 Saudi friends that hijacked those planes.) Do they like the expansion of student/work travel visas from Arab countries that Bush is fighting for? Do they like Bush allowing 850,000 illegals in the country since 911? Do they like that those illegals kill Americans at a 20-25 ...

As we celebrate another Yuletide season, it’s hard not to notice that Christmas in America simply doesn’t feel the same anymore. Although an overwhelming majority of Americans celebrate Christmas, and those who don’t celebrate it overwhelmingly accept and respect our nation’s Christmas traditions, a certain shared public sentiment slowly has disappeared. The Christmas spirit, marked by a wonderful feeling of goodwill among men, is in danger of being lost in the ongoing war against religion. Through perverse court decisions and years of cultural indoctrination, the elitist, secular Left has managed to convince many in our nation that religion must be driven from public ...

T WASN'T AN edifying spectacle: a group of middle-aged white guys competing with one another to see who could do the best impersonation of Jack Bauer, torture enthusiast and the central character on Fox's hit show "24." In Tuesday's Republican presidential primary debate, Fox News moderator Brit Hume — who appears to have been watching too much "24" himself — raised what he described as "a fictional but we think plausible scenario involving terrorism and the response to it." He then laid out the kind of "ticking-bomb" scenario on which virtually every episode of "24" is premised — precisely the kind that most ...

HOW'S YOUR tummy? Feeling nauseated? Many newspaper editors worry sick about ruining your appetite, often refusing to run provocative editorial cartoons and illustrations that fail what's known as the "breakfast test": When you turn to the editorial pages in the morning, do your eggs over easy suddenly go down hard? There are lots of reasons why editors decide political cartoons should not be published (like the ones on this page, all of which were rejected). At the Los Angeles Times, for instance, even revered former cartoonist Paul Conrad found that, over time, quite a few of his cartoons didn't make it into print. Editors on the taste patrol spiked his portrait of ...
Ron Paul on Blowback

"Ludwig von Mises Institute" -- - Plenty of reasonable people can disagree about foreign policy. What's really strange is when one reasonable position is completely and forcibly excluded from the public debate. Such was the case after 9-11. Every close observer of the events of those days knows full well that these crimes were acts of revenge for US policy in the Muslim world. The CIA and the 911 Commission said as much, the terrorists themselves proclaimed it, and Osama underscored the point by naming three issues in particular: US troops in Saudi Arabia, US sanctions against Iraq, and US funding of Israeli expansionism. So far as I know, Ron Paul is the only prominent ...
