I behave and do as I see fit, not by how society or my peers dictate. You don't look like or remind me of anyone else I've ever met, and I want you. But, you ... you keep looking for the next normal guy that comes along? Are you happy?

The definition of insanity is not doing different or outlandish things, but doing the same thing over and over again, yet expecting different results. So, which of us is crazy?

Is it permissible to quote myself??? [btw: feel free to use the above. Just be sure to credit me, especially if it works for you.] The latter memory, I first heard from one of my gurus, Michael Tsarion, during one of his lectures where he recites the prophecy of Badb, War Queen of the Tuatha de Dannan:

"Then she added a prophecy in which she foretold the approaching end of the Divine Age and the beginning of a new one, in which the summers would be flowerless, the cows milkless and women shameless and men strengthless, in which there will be trees without fruit and seas without fish, when old men would give false judgments and legislators make unjust laws, when warriors would betray one another and men would be thieves and there would be no more virtue in the world "

Is that, not the world we [who's eyes are open] see growing around us? Arguing that the Joker is insane, to me, is inseparable from arguing whether the world is insane. Perhaps, the Dark Knight's clown is a mirror for those of us who are facing the reality of the coming technocratic dictatorship. Below, the Joker stands, alone with just his gun (no high tech armor or armaments), bravely facing the impending technological onslaught (by Batman, the agent/pawn of Order):

It's easy to root for the Joker in this scenario. It is a metaphor that those of us opposed to tyranny, could very well project ourselves in. Digging deeper into the scene, what evens the odds in such an impossible situation, goes back to the issue of sanity: the joker has no fear. Fear, or the conquering of the emotion, is ultimately, the only real salvation mankind has to hope for a better future.

No amount of guns, protests and organizing can stop the great beast and its arsenal of technology, mind-controlled minions and innumerable disinfo agents. I also found it telling the Dark Knight promo posters depicted said scene in two manners: Heath with a Smith & Wesson M76 submachine gun (i.e, M13, MM), and Heath with a knife. One scenario aimed at the USA (where fools are being entrained that guns should be banned), the other for the UK (where fools are being taught that unregistered knives pose a threat to society). What a sad joke.

Ha! "There are many here among us, who think that life is but a joke," and I should add, there are a few here among us now who realize, 9/11 was an "inside joke." [Not as outlandish as it sounds, read Ha! A Cosmic Joke on Us.] Let's not forget that in another film about dealing with an insane situation (the Vietnam War), occult insider Stanly Kubrik, presented us with the one character who managed to retain his sanity in the middle of all the madness. That character's name [from Full Metal Jacket] was what? "Joker."

The Dark Night's joker, aside from what was presented in part i: (a) Rob's a mob bank (and, my guess, hints that the federal reserve is basically, the world's largest mob bank), (b) tests the mettle of the boat passengers and helps them find their humanity, (c) arguably, many of those he killed had it coming/deserved it, and (d) swindles the mafia out of half their money (for doing something he was gonna do anyway), and then proceeds to burn it. Upon completion of last act, he makes a damning statement to not only the criminals, but the consumers among us:

"All you care about is money. This town deserves a better class of criminal, and I'm gonna give it to them."

One reader pointed out the pile of money was laid out in a pyramid. Another [overt] clue towards the Federal Reserve's "pyramid" scheme. Now, as many of us are feeling the effects of the pyramid scheme's collapse, us fools are looking for someone to blame. Um, it's a pyramid scheme. It's supposed to collapse. The mirror should be the first place to look when assigning blame:

There, we will find a hideous face looking back at us, and it is the face of a fool. Fiat money is, by definition, an agreed upon medium of exchange. We, thanks in a large part to media programming, have surrendered our dignity and virtue (¿what was that Badb said about women?) in its pursuit. Add to that, the money is backed by absolutely nothing. Fool's gold? Fool's paper.

Sometimes, a clown will paint their face. Sometimes they don't need to. Others, clued in by some driving force, may feel a strong compulsion to paint a substantive mask on those already wearing one, but that is unnecessary. The mask of glamour ("glamour," by definition, is a magic spell; I'll delve deeper into the topic another time), is after all, but a mask:

As I pointed out in "A Cosmic Joke," Heath Ledger was found under circumstances (and some say) the same position as Marilyn Monroe. Sadly, this MM, idolized by many, was nothing more than a mind-controlled sex slave. [Worth noting, Kubrick's "Joker" was played by yet another MM, Matthew Modine.] Her only way out of her virtual mind-trap, was to be murdered by those ready to discard her (not the Kennedys, don't fall for disinfo). In requiem to Norma Jeane:

"No more tear-stained make-up for me.
No sponge has quite the power
To absorb the constant shower
Of the tears pancake and powder could never cover"

We can ride the Heath Ledger synch train to yet another clown that needs no [tear-stained] make up. Here is Mary-Kate Olson looking rather covered in pancake and powder (first image). Do absorb the extreme "Joker-like" quality of her "smile" in the last picture. Even stranger, is that she's demanding immunity before divulging what she knows of the clown's passing:

Far "stranger" than that, is the center photo taken at her Nylon Magazine photo shot. [Shot two months, two days (i.e., double duality 22) prior to Heath's ritual sacrifice.] She's obviously yet another mind-controlled tool of the elites ruling class, but what role did this Gemini twin play in The Clown's demise? I don't know, but the factoids on her IMDB resume get even weirder:

• Born June 13, 1986. Younger than Ashley by about 2 minutes.
• Nickname: MK [As in the MK-Ultra mind-control project.]
• The twins began their acting career in 1987 when they were chosen to play the role of MicheLLe [double Saturnian EL sygil] Tanner on a new television series, "Full House".
• Has two horses, CD and Star, and has won several prizes with them.
• At age 6, she and Ashley became the youngest producers in history. [Right!]
• Has a bi-monthly magazine called Mary-Kate and Ashley Magazine.

When things get weird (for me), I look to one of the tentacles swirling around the back of my own mind, that of suspected Octopus Robyn Hitchcock, and it yields a song he borrowed from Jimi Hendrix (yet another mind-controlled asset):

"After all the jacks are in their boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness standing on down the street
Footprints dressed in red
And the wind whispers MARY"

Not sure what to make of all this. There is the programmed route, of starting to suspect that you/I may indeed be crazy. Then, there is the sane route of realizing the world around us is crazy. If you wanna see the clowns. You need look no further than the pathetic ones masquerading as our "leaders" (make-up not required):

Insane are the fools who believe there is actually a difference between Democrats and Republicans. Insane are the fools at the DNC (eLLUMINATI's been covering the circus), listening to the new court jester, Obama, and falling again, for the same lies that other clowns before him, told them over and over and over again. [Check out THIS pathetic mindless fool!] But, Clowntime is over! Time to look under the covers. We'll let the fools and their cult of believers talk and talk, but I'm going to be the someone who goes looking where the others don't walk. {*1}

Another movie I saw recently synced heavily with the Dark Knight in SEVERAL ways. That movie is Hellboy II: The Golden Army. My first sync clue was at the beginning, when a young Hellboy is shown watching Howdy Doody on TV, and insisting the clown/puppet is "real." [¿Recall image from part i?] We [who saw the first movie] are reminded that Hellboy was raised by a government agent. Batman, incidentally, was raised by Alfred the Butler, who is a "former" intelligence agent. {*2} Does the old addage in the intelligence community say, "Once CIA, always CIA?"

OK, so both of these "heroes" [¡ha!] are the products of "intelligence agencies" who were just starting to get rolling in the Nazi-originated trauma-based mind control projects of the time (Batman in '43, Hellboy based in '44). Very very interesting! The other obvious connection, is the "villains" in the most recent release from each franchise. Looking at Hellboy's Prince Nuada, you'd have to be daft not to note the "powder" white similarity: {*3}

Again, we have a villain antagonist who is disgusted by the pathetic state [of order] to which mankind has been reduced. We could assume members of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement probably masturbated while watching the White Prince speak. [btw: when they write of "extinction," they mean ours, not theirs.] They can do whatever they want, and "fucking themselves" does seem appropriate. That is precisely what I would tell them to go do.

An omnipresent theme throughout Hellboy II is the two I's in the form of the Gemini elf-twins (the twins theme was explored in greater detail in Octopi, Phalli, Cubes of Life: II). I've been arriving at the conclusion that the letter H is symbolic of the bridge between the two I's (eyes), but in this movie, Hellboy acts to sever the bond, forcefully placing himself between them. Another pair of synchromystic clues that pop up: (a) the character was incidentally created by Mke Magnolia, another MM, and (b) back in 1993 (reduces to 2, II). Notable: the trolls in the movie, did use "glamour" to mask themselves from public perception.

The white prince also serves to remind me of two other notorious characters. The first is the albino monk Silas of the pro-Templar pro-Merovingian propaganda vehicle known as the Da Vinci Code. [The book/movie single-handedly responsible for mystic researchers having to contend with a significant subset of the general population, who, despite being fed disinformation, think they know something about Templars and Jesuits). We can surmise groups concerned with the choice of yet another Albino villain missed the big picture of the trend. Can't help but also note the character's similarity to the James Bond poster from part i. {*4}

The second character recalled is the infamous anti-hero, Elric of Melnibone (discussed in part i, and in greater detail previously). Elric was not your typical "hero" easily caterable to the masses. He had a moral ambivalence about him, and simply felt compelled to play out his destiny; for the greater good of mankind, to ensure that neither the gods of Chaos or Order established dominance on his plane of existence. Ultimately, he met the same horrible fate, as he doled out on enemy and friend alike. {*5}

The words of Prince Nuada (earlier image) do resonate deeply within me (and should within us all). They are worth reading again:

Humans have forgotten the gods, destroyed the earth, and for what? Parking lots! Shopping malls! Greed has burned a hole in their heart that will never be filled. They will never have enough and, for what?

One would be hard-pressed to argue against his point: mankind has indeed become pathetic. Despite all the social engineering agendas, when looking for someone to point the finger of blame at, the mirror again, is the best place to start. Sure, there are those among us, who are sick and tired of it; we strive for something more while our brethren are content to squander away their humanity for the material. But, how did we [mankind] get here?

Looking at the zombies above (on right), the word "voluntary" (as from VHEM mentioned earlier) comes to mind. These people, like ourselves, are acting of their own free will. Some may argue that they/we are a product of our environment, hence free-will is subjective. I may have felt that way at one time, but the universe is telling me that is a fallacy [¿phallus see?]. Throughout our lives, we've had many a great voice screaming at us, telling us exactly what we are doing.

One of these great voices has been director George Romero. His series of "Dead" movies have nothing to do with the dead rising from the ground. They are but another mirror turned back upon us (in hopes that we may see our zombified selves). I'll [hopefully] soon be doing a blog on the five Romero movies, focusing primarily on the latest. For now, I want to look at one of the older warnings, which came out in the 1978, about the same time that Shopping Malls were being erected all over America (and then on out to the world).

That movie was Dawn of the Dead. The plot was simple: the remnants of humanity (those who steadfastly refused to buy into mindless soulless consumerist culture), were trapped inside a shopping mall (i.e., the last place they wanted to be). They didn't know where to go, wondering if the metaphoric zombification was taking place in their town, their country, or the whole world. Ironically, all the zombies (people who listen to Top 40, watch television and raison d'être is conspicuous consumption) were outside the mall [literally] dying to get in:

The remake, while dumbing down the nuances and jazzing up the music/effects to cater to today's audience, remained honorably true to Romero's core message. In the above image, "HELP, ALIVE INSIDE" means just what it reads on the surface, but is undoubtedly far more significant. It means that we, mankind, despite our pathetic materialistic facade, deep down inside, a small part of us [our humanity, our individuality] is indeed "still alive," but needs a little help getting out.

A Christian friend and I have been having an debate lately. I've been trying to tell her that were there a "hell," then this is it. She's been arguing that Hell would actually be a far worse place. I cannot imagine that. Look around you! The dead are here among us, and they are walking the earth. As a few of the movies in the series summarize: "We are them and they are us."

Can you blame Prince Nuada for wanting to wipe the scourge of humanity from this Earth? Can you blame the Joker for wanting to create a little Chaos, so that the people of Gotham (symbolic of New York, symbolic of the world) start looking within themselves and change? Speaking of "change" (not the Obama branded zombie version), another of the "great voices" referred to earlier was Mojo Nixon (pictured below center), abrasively screaming "Burn Down the Malls" back in 1981. But, as the images above clearly demonstrate, no one was listening.

Below, we also see the [promised] source of the opening and closing images from part i. [As surmised, they think we're so dumb, we can't judge for ourselves who is good or bad.] While the 1st Hellboy movie showed some glimmer of hopes for the anti-hero, by the time the 2nd was released, those sparkles were all but gone. Just like Bruce Wayne, he is shown watching TV endlessly (yet another mindless brute), taking orders from a secret government agency (he serves the state), and killing the last of the forest gods (symbolic: recall Batman "burning down the forest"?).

A quick recall of the most recent Spiderman movie, has Peter Parker overindulging the ego, and defending Federal Reserve banks from the Sandman, who was only trying to steal this imagary money for his own lost cause (to take his son to a death-center / hospital). [For other variations of the Sandman mythos, check out Pseudo-Occult Media's excellent In Shattered Dreams.] If you want "change" then I suggest you stop looking to scripted heroes who serve someone other than mankind, and look within. As was the case in the Dark Night, there's a grave social engineering message engraved on the surface, but if you shine a little light under-the-surface, you'll find the real clue: "the greatest battle lies inside."

Back to Hellboy for a moment, I took exception to another mind-controlled "starlette," Selma Blair, being chosen for the female lead. Ominously: did her blue flame [of creativity] change to a infernal orange/yellow flame this go around? Aside from her starring in what is [un]debatedly the worst movie ever made, Cruel Intentions (makes I Know Who Killed Me look like Ben Hur, watch Valmont if you wanna see an honest retelling of the book), here she is trying to show us her primary qualification for landing the role [either I or Ben will get to IKWKM first]:

The magazine cover just confirms it. Pink. PINK! Here's another hint: it's pink! Syncs us back to another Blair, Linda and her novel use of a wooden cross in the The Exorcist (filmed while she was 13). Hollywood followed up her ignominious debut with Born Innocent (filmed while she was 14), where she is raped with a wooden toilet plunger (allegedly, depicted rather graphically). In the meantime, the mainstream media is busy redefining "pedophilia" as those who lust after post-pubescent girls, all the while heavily promoting teenagers as sex symbols. {*6}

A personal metaphysical journey once found a correlation from vaginas to crosses (albeit a very circuitous and indirect one), but explaining the connection would require a whole in-depth article (another for the draft pile). Suffice for now, to hint that a good place to start tracing would be the cross/cube touched on in the "Octopi, Phalli" series. The heart symbol's direct correlation to the vagina is indisputable (article coming soon, I swear), but I'll also note that another name for a vagina is ... a "box." Time to turn it over to phallus-resonant Robyn Hitchcock:

"If you were a priest. I would wait at least
Up unto confession time, and crawl into your box
Breathing like a fox, hunting for obsession time

If you were a nun. I would surely run
Way down to the hospital, and cover all your charts
With decorated hearts, a palpitating ritual"

Is [organized] religion itself not just another form of pornography, used to trap yet a different set of fools "inside the box?" What say you Robyn? "So please don't lock away your eyes." Read on. Open your eyes to the possibilities around you. But, whatever you do, I'd suggest not hiding your eyes behind the clown mask. As Anna Nicole Smith, Heath Ledger, Brandon Lee and others have shown us (worn just prior to their passing), doing so may expedite a process you're not ready for:

Insane clowns mired in Hell's Pit. Interesting. {*7} An Insane Clown Posse holograph (?recall holographic mirror?). Way interesting. I could expand on all the insane things happening to anyone the "clown" comes into contact with, but others have already explored the topic. The first two amazing pieces look at the wave of mutilation following the Dark Night's "release:"

• Through the Looking Glass's Jokers Wild Part III
• The Copycat Effect's Joker's Card, Jokawild and Decapitations

The latter two are collaborations between Jake Kotze and Steve Willner, looking beyond the fabric of time and space.

• Labyrinth of the Psychonaut's: Masquerade Infernale, The Hanged Man, and The Loom of Fate
• The Blob's Decapitated Heads, 888, and The Serpent of the Crossing

As was the case with Howdy Doody, we find (below) that there's always someone (or, some force) behind the clown, and in this case, the suggestion could be that if there's a clown behind the clown, then there's a shadowy someone behind him too (yes, multi tiered revelation). And I can't help but note, the clown/joker tattooed on the back of Tim McClean (the Greyhound bus beheading victim) is resonating "8" (incidentally, the number on my old soccer jersey) and wearing a tentacular hat. It's enough to make a dog/god wonder:

Clown after clown after clown is being murdered. Logic would dictate some agenda is being served. Occult study leads to more confusion, for if the agenda is to get rid of the clowns, then why is the social egineering agenda to dumb down [make fools of] as many of us as possible? Oh ... not sure I like where this is going ... wait a minute, I hear a sync-bell ringing. Graham Parker chimes in:

"After the show that night, the clowns had the makeup wiped from their faces
When somebody pulled a knife and cut off coco's bright red braces
They murdered the clown. They wiped that grin right off his face
They murdered the clown. Still the world's not a funnier place"

While Batman opted out of murdering the clown during the dark night, I already detailed how he utterly failed the humanity test. To his laundry list of crimes in part i, I neglected to add not respecting international law and sovereignty, and extraordinary rendition (turning the Chinese character over to Dent, where the threat of physical abuse was used for coercion). Recall how Batman and Fox looked into a CIA program for guidance (yes, the same agency that renditions innocents and sends them to places like Uzbekhistan, where they are literally boiled alive).

It's time for all of our childhoood heroes to hang their heads in shame. More importantly, we need to purge their image from our minds, and understand they were implanted there for the sole purpose of programming us. From the World War II agenda of demonizing Germans and Japanese, to the present agenda of getting us to accept torture, surveillance and the loss of liberty, these heroes are nothing more than clowns used by jokers to program fools.

Before I finish, in case any of you are curious how the situation in Brasil turned out, I'm not one to kiss and tell. Thus, I'll turn it back over to the same Graham Parker song, where your answer can be found embedded within:

"She fell for the clown because he made her laugh"

And, alas, I have my closing. Laughter! As Bob Dylan, aka the Jester, signs off in the last of these images: it's all a joke. It, what we perceive as our reality is but a holographic illusion we choose to make real. It's only as menacing as you allow it to be. Yes, if you fall into its materialistic trappings, it becomes the hell/prison the architects are building for you. So, as I surmised previously, those of us who don't want any part of that reality, need to find a way out of this one.

But, most importantly: we need to enjoy ourselves in the process. {*8} Do learn, do strive to rise above the zombies, but devote some time to loving, living and laughing while you do so. Fear and worry about impending doom are part of the formula for impending doom, just as much as ignorance makes for a mental prison. I leave you with another song to confound the mind, as sung by The Specials:

"Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think. Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the [¿]pink[?]. The years go by as quickly as a wink. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy yourself."

*1: I actually wrote the phrase "clowntime is over," prior to recalling the Elvis Costello song of same name. The subsequent lines, coincidentally, spoke of my transition to a tee (they are slightly modified). Other clown songs included herein: "They Murdered the Clown" by Graham Parker, "No More Tear-Stained Makeup" by the Marvelletes, "The Wind Cries Mary" by JH, and "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson (part i). [LB]

*2: It occured to me that former British Intelligence agent Alfred Pennyworth, syncs in with yet another of her majesty's assetts, James Bond (mentioned in part i), who always paid dear attention to "Jane Moneypenny, better known as Miss Moneypenny" (MM), and they both took orders from the mysterious "M" (13). I'll opt out of that money control and pennies rabbit hole for now. Taking us one step further into the abyss, the Alfred the Butler character received the rec.arts.comics "Squiddy" award. [LB]

*3: I had read in another blog (can't locate), how the name Prince Nuada is of Celtic origin. While footnoting that fact, and wondering if I could cut down the length of this article by possibly removing the Badb quote/reference, I learned the legendary Nuada was a member of the Warrior Queen's Thuatha de Danann tribe! Incidentally, the histories were chronicled in the Book of Invasions in the 11th century, and the movie [with the Elfin/Celtic twins] chose the 11th for its opening day. [LB]

*4: Another rabbit hole tempts me, as I just realized that I used the Jame Bond "Quantum of Solace" image and a mirrored crow/raven image from the random [as in had never before visited] "Temple of Solace" site. Solace, based on sol, as in solitary, or isolation: being apart from your other half (your spiritual/metaphysical one, not the physical manifestation programed fools look for in the vaginas/phalli of others). [LB]

*5: Argh! Recently learned that an Elric movie may be in the works. If there were an active/concerned God anywhere in the Heavens, this travesty would not be allowed to proceed. [LB]

*6: One of my readers (and worthy blogger as well), commented on the "Lolita Agenda," a topic I've written on before. The same media who puts out the infamous Dateline spectacle (to catch those entranced by the agenda), conveniently ignores most stories about the true pedophiles (those who lust after children) who are in positions of power (White House, Vatican, Duma, you name it) and the organizations that support them. Digging the recesses for synchro-clues, we turn to back to the clown: [LB]

"And watch out for Coco when he's had a drink
He'll tickle the children right where they're pink"

*7: Time is likely the 4th dimension of our cubic prison space (read Octopi, Phalli, Cubes of Life II). Last night, thinking along the lines of defining this place as hell, I caught a scene from Star Trek: Generations, where the antagonist stressed (in a slow methodical manner to draw attention to the line): "Time is the fire in which we burn." [LB]

*8: I may have opened up a bigger topic by the note on which I closed this, hence may have oversimplified. I am definitely not talking of ego-driven hedonistic media-dictated pleasure. On the other hand, getting too wrapped up in the conspiratorial uncovering business can be a negative also. Balance, as I surmised last set of blogs on Octopi & Phalli, whether it's between Order and Chaos, or relaxation and intellectual / spiritual growth, is worth striving for.

Hm ... 8 footnotes, to match the number I selected for my soccer jersey (¿or, did it select me?). Considering my recent forays into tentacular matters, not sure what that says about me. I do seem to recall quite a few dates accusing me of having as many hands as an octopus. ;-) [LB]

So Kate Moss has been made into the largest gold sculpture since sculptures in ancient Egypt.  It is called "Siren".  Quite an honor.

The artist Mark Quinn said he wanted to capture the quintessential beauty of the moment.  Once again, I'm not really sure Kate Moss is that babe, but we'll roll with it for the sake of argument.  Look at the close up.  Looks like a classy affair, right?  Wrong.

Is this dude serious?  He's got Kate Moss in the reverse Hucklebuck like this some sort of porn show.  My bad, my bad, this is a "yoga position".  Sure thing.  By the way, the camera man that chose this angle just earned a few perv points as well.  There hasn't been anything this wild since the Britney Spears pregnant doggy style sculpture.

You know the messed up thing?  400 years from now, when all the hard drives have failed, all the disks are scratched, and all the data is long lost, this huge piece of gold will probably be the only evidence of today's society.  We'll all be skinny, expressionless practicers of the kama sutra.  That and the history of the Bush White House.  That legendary performance will be passed from generation to generation like a fable.  Great.

Her positions aren't lesbian?  Do you ever wonder what lesbian positions look like?  Anyway . . .

One issue that you're going to hear about is "creation science."  Some of the liberal blogs are already claiming that Sarah Palin supports the teaching of "creation" in the public classroom.   But here are some statements that have been attributed to Palin and she sounds ok on this issue to us Lebos.  (PS - we would NEVER vote for her.)

“I don’t think there should be a prohibition against debate if it comes up in class. It doesn’t have to be part of the curriculum.”

She added that, if elected, she would not push the state Board of Education to add such creation-based alternatives to the state’s required curriculum.

Members of the state school board, which sets minimum requirements, are appointed by the governor and confirmed by the Legislature.

“I won’t have religion as a litmus test, or anybody’s personal opinion on evolution or creationism,” Palin said.

In case you don't know this dance is basically based largley on 'belly-dancing' moves.

Fat little kid at the end a future leader, eh? Got his rhetorical meme down already.

I know a lot folks  are quite rightly concerned about Cowboy 'Yee-Hawr' and his pal The Vile Cheney but they are I believe worried about the wrong people. And before you start I've been 'warning' folks since 2000 and before. Hang with me while we trek to the sharp end of my argument. There will always be vile twisted creatures such as Bush and Cheney infesting our society and even, at times, rising  to positions of power where the damage they do is magnified until the troup pulls them down and renders 'em harmless. This post is about someone else however. A person who failed her oath of office and in the doing of that has allowed Bush to remain in power to take his most recent shot at Armageddon. To me this person is to be condemned even more harshly than Bush. He's sick in the head.

What's you excuse Madame Speaker Pelosi?

You took Impeachment 'Off the Table...' and George just went nuts. The list of insane, stupid, dangerous things he's engineered ever since you, illegally I might add Madame, gave him a free pass. Far, far, far worse than that you have through the use of cash and the intimidation that goes with it gone a fair way to destroying the Democratic Party. Let's take a look at how Madame Speaker has spun her web of influence.

The lede:

'As Americans sat glued to their television sets watching the most hotly contested presidential primary in American history, pundits counted pledged delegates won in caucuses and primaries and discussed the highly prized superdelegates’ endorsements. Eventually it would be these superdelegates, Democratic officials, governors, and members of congress, who would determine the nominee, since neither contestant won enough pledged delegates in the 52 primary contests.'

Notice that 'Americans sat glued...' paying attention to that which would play little or no role in the determination of who would represent the Democratic Party this Fall. What was on TV has nothing to do with it. It's all about what goes on every day in the 'Democrat' Party the 'business as usual that the corporatist press never bothers to tell you about. The sort of information that goes a long way towards explaining why nothing has changed since the Dems got a majority in both houses of Congress in 2006 and why nothing will change in the Year of Barky 2008, if he can get by Sister Beelzebub at Denver. To put it as simply as possible the rot in Congress is far deeper than most progressives believed and any of the rest of the citizenry are ready to believe.

Must be hard to work with the waves of stink billowing out of Madame Speaker's office. Now go ahead and tell me it's just the way things are....how it is....cain't do notin' about it. Well, it's true that tales of corruption and even the 'they all do it...' come down to us from the Roman Senate, and before. Socrates is a real good example. And it's true corruption will always be with us. But the countervailing fact is that we must always be fighting it and trying  to stamp it out. Why? Because corrupt folks are generally pretty bad people to have governing you. And I mean bad as in evil deserving of the guillotine  no messin'. Because you see corrupt rulers have lost all feeling for those they govern. Madame Speaker is a classic case and I would persuade you that she is a greater danger to the health of our nation than Bush.

The reason is simple. Madame Speaker is still there. In the House. Her corrupt anti-democratic machine in place. Do you remember when Madame Speaker first uttered those immortal words? The words that will define her entire political career?

November 8th, 2006

648 days ago folks. I was going to make  a list of all the illegal, stupid, and immoral things President Bush has done since that day. But even the illegal acts he's commited, the one's that we know of, would run to dozens of pages. You can go ahead and list your favorite most infamous ones in the comments .We get enough and I'll cook up a poll and we'll pick the most heinous three. The point is that by abdicating her responsibility as Speaker of the House, by shirking her oath of office, she has made herself and her party as guilty of the crimes of the Bush cabal.

She needs to go.

And now.

As you may or may not realize Cindy Sheehan is running to put Pelosi on the street where she belongs. Check the upper sidebar for a button that will take you to her site. I urge you to give so that the process of reformatioon can begin sooner rather than later.

Every day people are dying because Nancy Pelosi is a  corrupt politician who has sold  out her constituents, us, for the Benjamins. Heinous doesn't do it justice.

Flash Update: Well Boosh did order the Guard to Georgia for 'humanitarian aid' but..well...he forgot to tell the Navy or the Russians so we just need to forget about that. Okay? Just another day on the job for Nancy's lil' boy.

If you don't like Senator Obama you really, really need to STFU!

steal...

commandeer...

pirate...

seized...

hijack...

assume...

usurp...

seize...

take over...

arrogate...

Hmmmm.... I don't see fair, just, proper.... Above all, the one word I don't see because what was done, in secret, is not...is not unless you are in the grip of a dangerous delusion....

Democratic!

....no matter what Howie or Donna or Kos or Bowers or Kid Oakland or anybody else says or does what was done in that meeting was as un-American as antithetical to my value system, to the values this nation was built on as anything the Communists, the Nazis or any of the other heinous scum we had smash to survive ever asserted.

600,000 voters not just disenfranchised!

Fuck no, their votes, votes they cast for Clinton, were stolen.

As I've said many a time Sinclair Lewis made no assertion about which side that figure, '....wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross...' was coming from. At this moment  it would be hard to argue that it's coming from anywhere but the left.

Fortunately, no matter what Obama, Howie, Miss Nancy, Donna and the rest of the corrupt knot of toads which squats in our Party can treat the GE like they have the primary. Such utter contempt would not go down with the 'bitter, clinging masses...'

Frankly, I've never been so ashamed of my fellow citizens in my life. Not even during the Vietnam occupation did I feel like this. One million Iraqi dead....

And Democrats cannot find a better candidate than 'The One' Miss Nancy and the Knot of Toads on the Hill have in 'selecting not electing' Senator Obama, who, to remark on just one of the truly stupid things he's done lately, feels it more important to play golf than address the nation about Russia's rending of Georgia.

A faithful ally being dismembered and the man has to make his tee time.

Disgusting.

And to anyone I've called out by name here or who disagrees with my assertion here I've only got one question for ya?

Just one....

What if that was your vote Howie and Donna stole?

What then fellow 'progressives'?

What then?

ANEMIC ROYALTY

Just keep in mind that according to it's rules the Democratic Party despite what Obama and the corporatist press who so love him are acting like has not, in fact, elected a nominee. No voter by the delegates has been taken. None.

Latest reports have a haggard Howard Dean not looking very well and seeming to have lost quite a bit of weight. Obama was feeling good enough to play golf today as Russia invaded Georgia and McSame and The Hill were on the campaign trail. The HIll campaigning for Obama.

My personal opinion rendered without any satisfaction is that the wheels are going to come off the Convention 'Unity Train'. There tension and actual hysteria are building. I'm not even going to report what some are saying the Obama campaign or it's workers are doing. Not unless arrests are made...which is a possibility.

Old fashioned smash-mouth politics more akin to the 30s that 'Yes we can!' so hang on to yer TeeBee remote and stay tuned here also.

Flash Update: Here's a little something I just tripped over.... So the next time I start ranting about what a lousy campaigner Barky is just think back to this little episode. Or you might find Tweety playing the tape and chortling about what a frikin' Clown the Barkster is but that will not happen until he does become the nominee. If he does.

The real problem sits on 'The HIll' like a horrific knot of toads in human form. 535 elected representatives of the people.

Or not.

Yep, in situation, after issue, compounded by crisis we see that the legislative branch of our government is stuffed to the gills with folks who are one of three things:

Corrupt...the biggest faction. Politicians are trained early that it's all about the Benjamins as our 'system' rewards those who get elected and under the current system you need lots of B's to get elected...

Stupid...plenty of those after all if you're buying a Congressperson you don't need one that's smart. Just one that loves to follow orders.

Nuts....Yeah, barking mad. These are the ones found in a hotel room with hookers and coke or an underage boy. Significant fraction....

So what to do. First up is very simple.

Get real.

Understand that the level of corruption is now at unprecedented levels. Levels no mere change in 'party' will fix. The job is a wholescale clean up similar to Hercules and the Augean Stables. Ever read that one? You should it's not really about what it seems. Yeah, get real. No one candidate is going to 'save' us folks. Most adults realize reality don't work that way but....

People want to believe.

Well...

Believe this.

If you and I don't get off our asses and take back our government the future will be very bleak. The tipping point on many problems affecting our very survival as a society is near. I assert that the tools to fix those problems which threaten us most are also hand. Requiring only affordable amounts of money and some intelligent leadership. But with a government composed of the corrupt, the stupid and the barking mad we are not going to be able to use those tools.

What to do?

Look around join up with like minded folks. Stop talking and start doing. You will be noticing some changes around here as I 'renovate' my new primary residence. And no I don't care what the Congressional mortgage lending 'bail out' bill says, it's amazingly stupid go look it up, about how to treat 'primary' vs. 'secondary' residences.

One signpost to a new way is the widget in the upper right sidebar called: 'Accountability Money Bomb'.

This takes you to a spot where you can contribute to a fascinating group headed by Jane Hamscher and a bunch of right wing folks. Yep, wingers and progressives...together. Seems there is common cause to be made by all Americans in the face of the Congress's gutting the 4th Amendment. Here is the link to the statement of purpose from StrangeBedFellows the ad hoc group just beginning to get some traction. I will be blogging about this more as the idea of 'Accountability for the Asylum (Congress)' resonates with me.

Hope you will hang around as I am planning some extensive remodeling here and I hope you will find it interesting.

Let's listen to him talk about the American worker:

The Employee Free Choice Act:

Notice how he points out that the fat corrupt toads who have historically, and continue to do so it would seem, sat in the chamber of 'The Greatest Deliberative Body in the World....' had zip to do with helping workers?

Here's 'The Money Pit Part I:'

Anyone really think some of that 18 Billion never left the States...or just made a quick round trip to to some selected Solons...18 Billion in cash....no accounting. No wonder Bush can wear $7,000.00 boots, eh? Maybe the continuous, unrestrained voting  for more unaudited, off the books spending is starting to seem a little...er, understandable?

Anyone really think some of that 18 Billion never left the States...or just made a quick round trip to to some selected Solons...18 Billion in cash....no accounting. No wonder Bush can wear $7,000.00 boots, eh?

Let's wrap this up with the Senator speaking at length on slave labor Immigration.

If any of this got ya going here are some phone numbers:

Madame Speaker of the House the Honorable Nancy Pelosi: (202) 225-0100

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid: 202-224-3542

And most importantly call Senator Dorgan here: (202) 224-2551 and thank him for his work. He surely deserves some praise.

Oh..yeah...I almost forgot.....This.............................

I liked this in particular:

'...administration and military officials say it's not that easy to distribute the money. They contend that Iraq's lack of spending isn't due to laziness or corruption, but rather Baghdad's inability to determine where its money is needed most and how to allocate it efficiently.'

In other words they've got so much money they can't figure out what to spend it on first. Thanks Madame Speaker, thanks Harry, thanks especially to 'The One' who has voted for every 'emergency appropriation...' for Iraq. And they are all, every one '....emergency appropriations..' and not included in the nation's budget. Budget...hah, what a concept.

I vehemently disagree folks. And as proof of that I present this rather humorous McSame vid clip. Have a laugh....

....it's good for ya.

Don't look very happy does he? Well he should he just won one of the 'spurious lawsuits....' he and his cabal of jackals are allus goin' on about. I let Majikthise fill you in:

Bork settles lawsuit over fall at Yale Club

Yep, nice to have the law there to help ain't it? Mr. Robert 'Original Conservative' Bork. Damn shame you did not break your scrawny neck.

Now my dad and I actually came to blows over 'Nam. Briefly, no knockdowns no winners and after a while he was forced to admit that, 'Yes, you were right son. 'Nam is a fuckin' disaster.' except he never swore. Which brings me to today's post. Some have said that I need to STFU! about certain issues. Obama's candidacy being one of them. The theory here being, as best I can follow it as it really makes no sense, it's wrong to criticize The One as he is the 'Democrat' Party nominee and that anything brought up about him only helps the vile, heinous Senator John McCain. And further, Obama would be a much, much better President than McCain. I got myself in big trouble, and expect to continue to do so, when I pointed out that: First, Obama has not been nominated you can look that up; Second, It's not clear that Obama would be a better President see Douglas Kmiec...FISA flip-flop...drill for oil in flip flop....Presidential Seal stupidity jsut for starters; Third, and this is the one where the shit hits the fan, where folks want to start swinging, I contend that Senator Obama is a horrible campaigner and a truly third rate politician. Whoa, folks really get pissed when I assert this.

Well, all you Obamacans out there what is the reality today pals? This is the reality:

John McCain is now trusted more than Barack Obama on nine out of 14 electoral issues tracked by Rasmussen Reports. The latest national telephone surveys find that McCain has the biggest advantage on the war in Iraq, by a 51% to 39% margin.

From the Rasmussen Report folks and it gets worse for the esteemed Senator:

Perhaps the most interesting finding of these polls is that McCain has expanded his leads on nearly every issue he had previously had the advantage on, while Obama’s leads have diminished over the past two weeks…

In the new survey, McCain has tripled his lead on the topic of immigration. He now has a 45% to 36% advantage over his Democratic opponent…

The Republican also has pulled ahead on the issue of balancing the federal budget. Two weeks ago, the candidates were tied on this issue at 40%. McCain now has a 43% to 40% lead on the issue among voters.

McCain used to be behind on the issue of Social Security but has pulled ahead of Obama for a 44% to 38% lead…

On national security, an issue that McCain consistently performs well on, the Republican leads 52% to 40%.

This mirrors what I have been asserting about Obama for over a year and a half. Assertions which have me banned from OpenLeft, Corrente, TalkLeft and Crooks and Liars. Now it may very well be that Obama will engineer a comeback and beat McCain but, another question no one wants to answer:

'How the hell can the Democratic Party nominate a candidate for President of the United States in one of the most critical periods of our history who is struggling to compete with, not beat, compete with a Republican nominee who, given his and his predecessor's track record, should not be able to be elected dog-catcher?

Come on guys! Come on Kos...Bowere....Marshall....Armando...Marsh.....

Explain that one to me pals. Oh great and mighty seers of the Awesome Blogosphere. Bah! None of these AssClowns can find their butts with either hand when it comes to what they are suppose to be so damn good at, political analysis. Sadly, many of the netizens and Democrat rank and file have bought off on this fantasy and worse yet consider anyone such as myself a heinous asshole for pointing out that yes, 'The Emperor has no Clothes' and I'm talkin' about Obama.

The reason Obama is where he is is a topic for another day. Until then remember A.Citizen's ironclad guarantee to you and every other citizen of this still great nation which is:

'I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it'

Yeah, I stole it from Voltaire. Or so you think just another example of how things we 'know'...well, we really don't. One of my goals is to get folks to understand why that quote is so important. Sadly, the chimp brain is not wired to understand this meme.

That's why they made Socrates guzzle some hemlock. Not too worry. I ain't guzzling' no hemlock. No. Matter. What.

As small blog where, as far as I can tell, I am free to say what I want to say how I want to say it. Politics is a full-contact sport. People get hurt. Physically, financially, morally and their psyche's take a beating upon occasion also. If you are of such a sensitive fame of mind that you've had problems with my content, syntax or scatology....

Leave now.

It's only gonna get worse because we, real progressives from the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, are surrounded by enemies. McSame doin' his little jig of smear...smear...smear...

And much, much worse the illegitimate 'nominee' of the 'Democrat' Party who has used every slimeball tactic known to politics and one he stole from the WingNuts, that would be the 'believe' schtick, to convince the American people that he already is President....their vote just a formality. Not only is this false, as the non-Kool-Aide guzzlers understand, but in fact Senator Barack Obama is not yet, and may never be the nominee. Yeah, shut UP with the calls for the tin-foil hats. You are only exposing you own abysmal ignorance, albeit encouraged and nourished by Barkey and his pet press mutts, about what's actually happened and what can happen in the Democratic Nomination process. read on to see what I am talking about.

But before we can get to that I need to introduce a fellow blogger. A woman of far greater stature than I in the growing state of NoBamaLand a seething mass of outraged folks who'd the likes of 'The Committee of Three' would just as soon you never heard of. Heidi Li Feldman, Joint Degree in Law and Philosophy; Professor of Law,  A.B., Brown; J.D., Ph.D., University of Michigan and is that a mouthful or what. Not even 'Barkey'  Obama can match that...not even close. Take the time to read this page. BRAG posts by me are not for the lazy; one page of type too much for ya head on back to the HDTV and suck down another Budweiser still a shitty beer but at least it ain't American no more. I hope you do take the time to read the little bit about her, love that part about 'bullshitting and the law...' because this post is just about all her! I luv it! Here's the lede para:

For the most part, I find Senator Obama boring. So usually in this space I do not write much about him directly. But today Senator Obama played a little trick that reminded of the person who I think of as his nearest political relative - Richard M. Nixon.

Whoa! Bitch must be crazy right? I mean come on....Nixon and 'The One'. Clik on thru read the whole thing and admit it. She nail's Obambi's hide to the barn door where it's stink drifts away as it dries in the sun.. Yep, go ahead and read it. Then tell me why she's wrong in the comments. They work here at B.R.A.G. and the new, improved A.Citizen expects, even demands, that you respond if you have something to say.  As my sainted Daddy usta say, 'Speak up son I cain't hardly hear ya.'

Stay tuned there is an almost endless line of bloggers, the vast majority of 'em women, who will be appearing hear to let you know that they are done eating shit for:

'The Precious'

'The Boyz in the Blogz'

Howard Dean

Donna Brazile

Tweety

And I'll even kick the dead stinking corpse of PumpkinHaid a few times just for the hell of it.

Yep, as the Great Yogi once said: 'It ain't over 'til it's Over'

And it ain't over.
