I wasn’t sure what to make of Nancy Pelosi in the last few years as she rose to international attention. I was put off by her preditorial ambition at first but I now believe, that it is what a person needs in order to advance to the rank of Speaker of the House. Her grand entrance onto the national and international scene as the first woman Speaker of the House is a remarkable accomplishment. I have to respect her stamina and horse trading ability, to whip up the Democrat and Republican representitives to show some courage and commitment . She has shamed them all into standing up against the Bush Administration. She has made G.W Bush irrelevant to the will of Americans and accountable for his bumbling presidency. She has made Condi Rice look like a sophmore political science student. She has made G.W Bush look like an impotent moron. ( That was easy). She understood the need to communicate with the Middle East countries rather than dictate terms to them. The Bush Administration has this sickening, childish and demented diplomacy, that has said to the world “If you don’t do what we say we will not talk to you, or we will bomb you.”
I enjoy watching the Republican pundits on television lately as they defend G.W Bush. Their grimaced smirks reveal their pain and shame as they try desparately to convince anyone, that Nancy Pelosi is dangerous and niave and upsetting U.S foreign policy. The truth is Nancy may be saving U.S foreign policy, and may actually bring about an end to the Iraq war. Her Middle East trip has neutered the failed Bush Administration’s Foreign Policy. I hope that her next step will be towards the Impeachment of G.W Bush.
I am a political cynic and I have never denied it. Although I have to admit that historically, through fate or intervention by providence some leader of questionable credentials either has a stroke of inspiration or a shocking revelation of morality and reason, and does the right thing for the country. Tens of millions of Americans raised their voices in 2006 and more are raising their voices now. Politicians cannot avoid those roars of the people for too long or they will be trashed and thrashed in 2008 or sooner. Americans are fed up with the inaction, corruption and incompetence of their elected officials on all levels of government. I hope they will maintain their pressure on Congress, until a great change takes place. Nancy Pelosi is a sign of that change.
Most Americans are wise enough to see; that at least Nancy Pelosi is doing something to change the status quo of “staying the course”. Most are willing to give her a chance to do what she has been hired to do. If she fails she could not do any worse than G.W Bush’s fiascos or the corrupt leadership of her predecessor. If she succeeds all will benefit, except the cowards and culprits in Congress and the White House who tried to prevent her success. They will be branded as fools and failures,vanquished from power, and possibly indicted for corruption, high crimes and treason. Maybe providence will help as it has so many times in the past, when America faced other great challenges. George Washington was certain of the hand of providence in the founding of the United States, and proclaimed it in his first inauguration. All it would take for that divine intervention to intervene for us again is for Americans to have faith in their future, pride in themselves, and the devotion to revive, preserve and defend their freedoms, that made the United States of America the most powerful nation in history.
I’m certain we have all had a friend or relative who virtually lost their minds over some conspiracy issue or some religious or ethnic hatred. It is a difficult position to be in when you believe with all your heart that something is wrong, but the rest of the world could care less or doesn’t believe you. When this happens we already have one foot in the rabbit hole, and are about to plant our second foot in it and take a great fall.
One of my first falls down a rabbit hole was when I accepted the theory, that Christianity was the way and the life, and all other religions were the wrong way to God. Every religion begins brainwashing their young at birth. Christians baptize their young in water, Jews circumcise them, other religions have other traditions to brand their children with the mark of their beliefs. Foods, music, church services, religion classes, etc. are all used and designed to train the young , impressionable mind to be a devout and guilt ridden follower of the “chosen” religion. A Jesuit priest once remarked to a close friend of mine; “If we can teach a child Catholicism before his sixth birthday he will be ours forever.” I found that statement to be quite frightening. It isn’t just Catholicism that practices this mind controlling technique. Every religion does the same thing. What makes the Jesuit’s statement most frightening is, when one considers the vast number of pedophiles in the Catholic priesthood.
I was raised a Catholic, by learning to make the sign of the cross , confessing my horrid, six year old’s crimes to a priest and not eating meat on Fridays. I remember having to say ten Hail Marys and 3 Acts of Contrition to purge my soul of the great crime of fighting with my sister. By the time I was seven I had decided that fighting with my older sister was self defense, and I’d said enough Hail Marys and Acts of Contrition to last the rest of my lifetime. I began to understand, that if I confessed every sin I’d supposedly committed to some weird guy, who wanted to hear every “sinful” thought of a six and seven year old,then I had to be crazy. Hell I was only seven years old ! By the age of reason on or before my seventh birthday I found a way to climb out of the rabbit hole of Catholicism. I suffered through all the sanctimony, sacraments and Sunday clothes that I could stand. I had started smoking by the time Confirmation came around. A friend and I got caught by the parish priest, as we were sharing a cigarette behind the church, after Confirmation practice. We offered to do 100 Hail Marys each if he didn’t tell our parents. After he told our parents my friend and I caught hell for it, but it didn’t stop us from smoking.
I guess I carried the mark of the big, bad, beast and was damned and excommunicated by the church by the time I was 12. I was entering puberty then, and discovered the delights of pretty girls and Playboy Magazine. My father seemed to be going through a crisis of faith as well, and would often skip church for an overtime check. My mother finally gave up damning my soul and his, and took the rest of the family to Sunday Mass.
I discovered in my late teens, that there were many other rabbit holes I had to be careful not to fall into. The most mind blowing was infatuation. Girls, Girls, Girls. Wow, I couldn’t get enough of them. I fell in love every week. The minute a pretty face would flirt with me I was swooning. By the time I was 17 I realized I had fallen down a rabbit hole at 12 and didn’t know it. I had dated and fell in and out of love with every pretty girl in town. By my high school graduation I had spent most of the goodwill the good people of the town had for me, and I decided it was time to move on.
I thought I had escaped the rabbit hole again when I went to college. It was there that I realized that everyone I met was in a deeper rabbit hole than the one I had just climbed out of. I found that many of my professors were so far down their rabbit holes, that they would never find their way out. Students were into everything , drugs, booze, sex, politics, fraternities, sororities, hazing, hunting, fishing, philosophy. Name it and someone was into it. Their rabbit holes were all of different widths and depths and led somewhere underneath the ground that I was walking on. It didn’t take me long to see that the campus grounds were full of rabbit holes and I would have to step carefully not to step on someone’s head.
I have side stepped many rabbit holes since then. I have fallen into a few as well. For all I know I may still be in one and not realize it. Falling into a rabbit hole is easy to do. Even the smartest people I’ve ever met still fall into them. The one rabbit hole that I am most careful not to fall into is the one I have fallen into and climbed out of several times. They are the most dangerous, because they are always the best camouflaged. Often times someone who is in a hole invites you in to join them. You may think that you are on a clear path and are making great strides towards achieving your goals, and you may just be visiting a friend. Suddenly you realize that you are standing on a hole, or already in the hole with someone else. You may be quick enough to jump to solid ground, or you ignore it because the ground looks solid, or your friend doesn’t seem to be worried and is trying to convince you that you are not standing in a hole with him or her.
This happened to me recently, when a friend of mine fell into a rabbit hole, and tried to convince me to join him. He tried to convince me that I was going the wrong way, and that the truth I was seeking he had found. He told me how he had dug deep down into his hole to find this great secret. He was convinced that it was the key to the kingdom of all understanding. He was convinced that after all his years of searching he had found the answer, and the key to unlocking the secret to all the ills and problems in the world.
I had known my former friend for several years. He had been correct about many things, and had brought many truths to light for me. I trusted him to the degree that I could , so with some reserved excitement I was very anxious to hear about his discovery. He teased my curiosity with a few questions and leading clues to see if I might have known the secret already and was keeping it from him. By his questions I sensed where he was leading me , yet I let him go on so I could be certain. I feared that he might have taken the ancient bait, that has deceived so many throughout time. I feared that he was becoming tired and frustrated by his life long quest and was retiring by accepting Christ or Buddha or Mohammed or some other prophet as his key to all understanding. I had always hoped that he was wiser than I was, and more cautious of falling into rabbit holes. My former friend was not. He had led me to believe he had found the secret, until he told me what it was. He said with a self satisfied grin; “JEWS, ITS THE JEWS ! YOUR A FOOL IF YOU CAN’T SEE IT ! THE JEWS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE WORLD ! EVERYONE IS A PUPPET TO THEM! THEY OWN AND CONTROL EVERYTHING! I’VE FINALLY FOUND THE TRUTH. I DON’T HAVE TO LOOK ANY FURTHER !”
My first thought when he said this was, how the hell did he come to that conclusion? I thought he was a rational man with some unique theories, but this was not unique nor was it original. This was not a theory equal to his natural intelligence. This was totally out of character for him. He had always been a defender of tolerance. He had always taken the side of the downtrodden and humanity’s victims. He always spoke out against racism and was in favor of protecting human rights and the natural dignity of humanity. How could he have fallen so far down the hole of Jew hating that he seethed . He reminded me of the character of Golom in the Lord of The Rings, who greedily held on to the ring of power even though it was destroying him. He said that he looked at everything, referring to evidence to convince himself and me, that he held the “precious” secret.
I have known many Jewish people in my life and none of them were or are conspirators. They would like me to say; that they were extremely smart and all knowing , but I have to admit my Jewish friends are much like myself. Some have been more successful at avoiding rabbit holes than I have, and others have been less successful. To blame all the world’s problems on these guys would be absolutely ridiculous. No one can blame all Americans for G.W’s crimes against humanity. Nor can anyone blame all Jews or all Israelis for their leaders’ crimes. Every race and religion have committed crimes against one another and against other races and religions. To blame one race and religion for all the suffering of humanity absurd. Jewish paranoia is warranted by the Jewish people and expected. Any person would understand their fears based on their history of persecution. The paranoia of Jews is a rabbit hole occupied by millions. Millions place the tragedy and losses of their own lives and fears of existence conveniently into hatred and scapegoat their guilt and shame upon an entire race and religion, who have defied the world’s hatred against all odds, and have continued to exit.
The Jewish people would have no power without the aid and cooperation of non Jews. It is too easy to blame the Jewish people for the ills of the world. It is always the men and women in power who create or end the ills of their nations. It is the religious and political leaders and zealots, who by their insatiable greed for power and control create the divisions amongst religions and nations by brainwashing their followers, to close their minds and hearts from having sympathy, compassion and tolerance towards their fellow men.
I hope my former friend will eventually find his way out of his hole. I will not visit him there again. I hope he opens his mind to understanding; that all the ills of the world are created first by each person from their indifference to or intolerance of their fellow man. No one group of people , or one person can control all worldly events without the complicity of billions. The secret to ending world suffering must first be looked for in ourselves. We must ask if we are guilty before we can blame anyone else. Are we guilty of indifference or ignorance and bigotry, or are our deliberately deluded daily actions adding to world suffering?
I am seldom personally confronted by racial or religious discrimination. I am not of a racial minority in my country and I have no religion. I have seen racial discrimination and I have seen religious discrimination. Black and Jewish people have received most of the discrimination around the world. Now Middle Eastern races are experiencing the brunt of world hatred.
Discrimination is a touchy subject for most people. It is a deep held belief taught by one’s own intolerant parents, friends and religious upbringing. No one can blame a very young child for shouting out racial or religious slurs, but everyone can blame adults for teaching their own prejudice and hatred to their children. Unfortunately Jews , Christians, Blacks , Whites, Hispanics, Arabs, Indians, Asians, Methodists, Calvinists, Mormons, Fundamentalists, and every religious sect on earth all practice racial and religious discrimination. Liberals and Conservatives call each other names. The Right and Left and in between, all have hatred for one another. It is a human thing brought about by our evolving nature. Most animals have this instinct to preserve their species and to survive. Every carnivore has it’s favorite prey. Almost every flower and tree naturally repels the seed of other species. Some have adapted through cross pollination , but nature has maintained strict enforcement against the practice. So is it in human relations. Cross cultural , or bi racial marriages are still frowned upon and discouraged in most societies. Integration of schools and assimilation of cultures always leads to conflicts.
It has always amazed me how easily the human mind can be swayed to believe anything. So many people seem to have been created without a moral compass. As a child I witnessed many prejudicial acts and heard many cruel and ignorant statements made against other children, elderly people, disabled people, retarded people, and people of all minorities and religions. I would often ask the slanderers why they said those hateful words about other people. I would ask them if what they said was true. The slanderers and bigots would all answer by stating virtually the same things . “If you know one, you know them all.” “Don’t play with them they are not your kind.” “They are all stupid.” They are evil.” They’re animals.” They should all be killed.” “Hitler was white and right.” ” They are all devils.” “They are the Axis Of Evil.” I think I have made my point.
Americans are far more sensitive to their own prejudice and will often deny that they are prejudice. This is because we must all live amongst many cultures and races. America is a melting pot of peoples and prejudices. Christian communities, walled communities, ethnic communities all abound in the United States. Stereotypes R US. Profiling is law enforcement’s way of categorizing and prioritizing the local, regional and national prejudices. What races of people are more harmful to the homogeneity of an area? Institutions continually deny and redline applicants for employment or home mortgages, insurance and healthcare based on race and religions and communites. Private schools and many state colleges and prestigious universities all have racial, religious, sexual and economic prejudices implied in their application processes. Country clubs, secret societies and even churches are still permitted to discriminate. Laws have greatly helped breakdown the walls of exclusion. However, less visible and more impenetrable walls have been erected in their place.
Fear is the greatest of these walls of exclusion. Fear of someone different, fear of other cultures, fear of competition, fear of loss of employment, fear of loss of privilege, fear of the unknown, fear of retribution. I fear only one thing. The fear of being afraid. It sounds silly, but I have never wanted to be afraid. I have fought this fear my entire life. I refuse to be afraid of anyone or anything. I will go to great lengths to try and understand something before I resign myself to fear it. I consider fear with these absolutes. If it is man made it is fallible. If it is God made it is infallible and unexplainable.
I realized after losing many close relatives and friends, that there was nothing I could do to prevent the loss. There was nothing I could do to stop them from dying. There was nothing I could do or say to prevent them from leaving my life, even if they hadn’t died. Divorce, separation, insult or injury may have been preventable, but the solutions were not evident to me at the time. I still face the present and future unsure of the outcomes, but I never fear anyone’s prejudice against me because I never accept a stature of inferiority. This is the divine and inalienable right of a human being. A person’s willingness to exercise this right is all that separates the individual from the slave.
I hate telemarketing calls especially the computerized recorded calls. The call from someone on the other line sounding friendly and real, until you try talking back to them and realize your talking to a recording.I got one of those calls the other day and the woman on the recording sounded so real I actually listened to her for a full minute. I started to talk to her and she kept on talking and talking until I realized she was a recording. I got pissed off and hung up the phone. Fifteen minutes later I got another call from some siding company, and was about to hang up when an elderly voice asked if I was Mr. Steel. I said yes, and he asked if I was interested in siding. I said no, but thanks for calling. He seemed like a nice guy trying to do his job. I have a soft spot for salesmen since I was one for many years. 100 calls =10 leads= 1 sale. Not the greatest odds but that’s cold calling. Having a few good leads makes it a little easier. I thought about how many calls it would take by computer to get even one good lead, then I wondered what quality lead one could get with a recorded phone message. Who would have the patience or the want to even listen to the message, if they knew it was a recording? One lead per thousand calls maybe.10,000 calls for one sale. It’s hardly worth the cost of the phone bill.
The most aggravating telemarketing calls are the ones from some guy named Fred from India. You just know this guy has an outsourced American job and is living in India somewhere trying to sell another stupid American something he doesn’t need. Why would anyone give this guy their credit card number or even care to listen to him? I did listen to him until he gave me every special deal he had to offer for the price of $20 dollars. $1400.00 dollars worth of something for $20.00 . I wondered how much lower he would go. He started to get angry with me and called me cheap. I finally told him that the 10 minutes I spent listening to him was worth 100 dollars of my time that he owed me . I told him I would give him the same deal he gave me and that I would only charge him $80.00 . He could send me a check and a $1400 dollar gift certificate for the merchandise he promised me to my P.O Box. I then heard a long pause and the phone hung up. It was probably a mean thing to do, but I couldn’t help myself. I never heard from Fred or anyone else from that company again . I’m sure they took me off their call list.
While I was writing this today I got another call from some financial company. A young woman’s voice recording told me my lease had been renewed. I don’t have any leases. There must be enough people with leases to be worth the company phone call. You might be wondering if I have an ID caller or blocker. I do, but these calls still get through with no name or Fred Smith or some other bogus name. I keep thinking that Fred or another live telemarketer from India or China or Timbuktu will call again. It’s rare that I have the time, or get a chance to beat these companies at their own game.
I often look at the night sky to see unfamiliar changes. Some nights the moon is full and bright and other nights it does not appear at all . I have often wondered on those particular nights, when the moon is lost how I would feel if I never saw it again.
My memory of the moon is so transient that I have difficulty deciding what appearance I should remember it by. It is similar to remembering what friends looked like the last time you saw them. Should I remember the moon as bright and full or as a half moon? Should I remember it as a quarter moon, or as a fine, bright, curved edge blade, suspended in the dark, distant sky.
Should I remember it as it appeared to me when I was a child? Some nights it would be big and bright, other nights it would be large and yellow. Some nights it would appear to have eyes and ears and a nose. Many nights it would have a halo of mist, or look like a street lamp, or as a white or light grey cloud, or not appear at all.
I did not look at the moon last night. I do not know if it was visible or not. I did not even think of the moon last night. I just assumed it was there. Today I am remembering it as I have seen it many times . I can remember how I felt when I looked at the moon on certain nights. I remember who I was with or without. I did not look for the moon last night, and I now feel a loss for not having that experience. I wonder what it looked like? I wonder what I missed? I wonder if I will ever see it again? If the moon is visible tonight I will not fail to look at it. I will honor the moon always by looking for it each night; even if time only allows me a moment. I feel obliged to look at it with admiration as I would an old friend, who I may never have the chance to see again.
Inspiration is illusive and invisible, yet all embracing. It is alien and foreign and different from anything I understand. It creates and destroys,speaks riddles and clear statements. It instructs and confuses. It kisses with tenderness, and punishes with torments. It confounds the senses and brings death and misery to whoever fails to recognize its warnings.
I have seen its face both beautiful and frightening. I have heard its voice instruct and guide me. I have heard it say; “Continue”, “Begin”, “End”. It can appear before me at anytime time. In my dreams it pieces and builds its messages. In waking hours it molds my destiny. It speaks to me through others. It confronts me when it angers. It ignores me when I ignore it. It is the creator of space and time. It is the destroyer of faith, and the builder of new beliefs.
Inspiration is creation. It is the spirit of fire and water , earth and sky. It is male and female, sacred and profane. It has perfect symmetry and total chaos. It is melody and harmony, atonality and silence. It brings destruction to civilizations, and sea change to history. I wish it would last and last forever, but it refuses to be held. It refuses to be imprisoned. I see and feel and know the universe. It is not from this universe. It tells me, it is from beyond the universe , beyond all mortal comprehension. It continues to create without end. It continues to confound the human mind. It speaks through many messengers who inform the blind how to see. It startles poets, painters, sculptors, writers and musicians. It emboldens great leaders, prophets and saints.
It is myth,legend,false and true, a mountain, an ocean and sky, a song of love or sorrow, and genius disguised. It is a child who hungers and a mother who cries. It is murder,mayhem, war and peace, conspiracy,honesty, and without body or size.
It can be had by all, but held by none. It is weak,strong, fast and slow, light and heavy. Each second of its visit is more precious, than the rarest jewel. It is visiting me now,teasing me with this riddle. It will leave soon, but promises to return. I leave my doors and windows open on clear, blue, days, and let it shine through all rooms. At night it often visits my dreams and warms me, and sheds its light in the darkness, and wakes me in the morning.
Inspiration has many names and is more wonderful than one word can express. It is God, but this word means different things to those who do not understand. I regret I can not explain to them what the essence of inspiration is to me.
ATTENTION MEN AND WOMEN OF HONOR AND PATRIOTISM!

Tonight on the L.A. Steel internet talk radio show we have a follow up interview with Merchant Marine Lt. Eric Shine. Tonight he will talk about the Bush conspiracy to destroy veteran benefits for returning soldiers, the corporate and government theft of soldiers death benefits and the crushing attacks against whistleblowers; who are doing their duty to fight all enemies of this country outside and within our own government. Listen to Merchant Marine Lt. Shine explain the charges brought against him, and the charges he has brought that expose mass scale corruption and treason of Bush officials and U.S corporations and mob connections. Lt. Shine is one of the last true American heros and he needs the help of concerned and honest Americans to come to his aid. Please listen and you will be moved by his honesty and courage.
Also listen to our first interview archived on 3/27/07 featured below this post on this website.
Fire can be a friend or a ferocious enemy. The careful balance of fire and ore can create metal into any desired form. The careful mix of temperature and ingredients can blend into a perfect creation. Fire is the eternal force, that all alchemists have tried to harness and comprehend. The symbol of an eternal flame is a universal icon.
My life is a fire that rages and subsides by my thoughts. I regulate the fire’s temperature daily and fuel it with my actions. If I fuel the fire with troubles and despair it consumes me. If I fuel the fire with knowledge only it will often burn out of control. If I neglect it the fire will take it’s own course and possibly destroy me. Fire must be controlled. It can heal, warm, wound and destroy. It is the force of all life, and must never be allowed to burn out of control or be extinguished within us.
I acknowledge the fire within me. I understand it’s volatility. I understand how to use it, and how to control it’s power. I respect it. I fear it’s potential dangers, yet greatly desire it’s benefits. An alchemist’s workshop was often divided into two sections, an altar and a laboratory. The Alchemist’s Secret of transforming lead into gold is attributed to mastery of his spiritual fire, mastery of physical fire and base elements, and his reverence of the critical balance between science and prayer.
“The fire likes making things fiery, but not like the gold making gold. As far as there has been an active principle in nature, it spreads its forces around, and wants to multiply them. In this way fire makes everything it meets fiery, and there is nothing that produces a noble work without cause. By itself gold makes nothing fiery; neither does fire make gold. Each thing discerns the seed which it carries in itself.” Alchemist Micheal Maiers “The Atalanta Fugiens” “Emblem 18” Published, 1617.
This is the first of two L.A. Steel Show interviews originally broadcasted on 3/21/07 with Merchant Marine Lt. Eric Shine, who filed a lawsuit against the G.W. Bush Administration for corruption and selling off U.S assets and vital sea ports. As an officer in the Merchant Marines he is subject to Congressional oversight and has filed a complaint and lawsuit against the G.W Bush Administration for corruption and abuses of power which he personally witnessed, and is being persecuted and prosecuted to keep him quiet as a whistle blower.
I use to wait for what seemed forever for things to happen, or for others to understand what I already knew. I would often read ahead in my history and science books, when I was in elementary school and my teachers would scold me. I wondered if they hadn’t read the material yet. I would often wait for a certain song or some new news on the radio while I was driving or waiting in a traffic jam. It took me many years before I realized I was wasting half of my time waiting for people to inform or entertain me while others just slowed me down.
By the time I had reached my early twenties I had had enough. I could no longer tolerate waiting for someone to teach me what I wanted to learn . I decided I would never again wait needlessly to be informed. I began to delve into serious readings on any subject that interested me. I took a speed reading course to learn how to read faster. I needed raw information. I needed to find the sources of facts and fiction. I read every myth and legend I could find. I read every classic I could read in English. I read ancient and modern classics and philosophy, Milton, Shakespeare . Occult, nutrition, science, medicine, mysteries, politics, magazines and periodicals, newspapers. This was all before the internet. I set up a reading schedule for myself of 300 books a year. I felt that I had to learn what I wanted to learn and I could not wait or trust anyone to lead me. I searched public and university libraries for their inventory and made a list of old and new books and periodicals that interested me. Many books I skimmed through and many others I found fascinating and took notes on. I filled hundreds of note books with quotes and references. I went to conferences and lectures to try and discover something new and interesting. I kept this routine for several years until I became bored. I had become too distant to the rest of the world. I began to hear and criticize references in conversations that were in error. I would attend political speeches and academic lectures and realized they were deceptive or ignorant of fact. I began to see the entire world differently. I began to believe that everyone was operating on a lie. There was a fog of deception so dense, that almost everyone I knew or knew about was under its influence.
I wanted to shout out my frustration to anyone who would listen. I wrote to newspapers and magazines to correct their errors. I was too young and radical to be taken seriously, too stubborn to retreat into oblivion and too angry to sit back and say nothing. I decided to steadily continue my studies. When I became angry at something or someone I kept my mouth shut. Knowing too much about many subjects can be socially crippling, but knowing nothing about a subject and believing anything someone tells you about it can be deadly.
I have forgotten much of what I had learned. So much information unused is useless. The human memory is like a computer hard drive. It needs to be cleaned out once and a while, or it may crash. I keep copies and files of everything I read on my radio programs. I keep only the important books and magazines that I continually refer to. Author Jim Marrs once told me he was a “pile it”, because he piled books, articles and news clippings everywhere. I remembered that because I do the same thing.
I don’t try to correct anyone anymore. I just make certain of my own facts. By observing many wise men and women I have learned to become more cautious and reserved. I have learned why smart people keep a perfect poker face. I have learned that most valuable knowledge is kept secret. I have learned that the wisest person in a group is often the most silent. I have also learned; that the deadliest predators perfect their stealth, and depend on the ignorance of their prey.
Believing is the highest moral and intellectual compliment anyone can give to himself or to someone else. I have believed in many things. Many of them false. I believed once that if I were smart enough and strong enough and wise enough I could accomplish anything. I believed that only by putting limitations on myself restrained me from achieving any goal I aspired to achieve.
As I grew older I realized there were definite obstacles to achieving many of the goals I had set out to conquer. One particular obstacle was ability. I did not know until I failed at many things that I did not have an ability in those areas. I believed in myself and in the promise of possibility, but I did not consider the relevance of time in overcoming certain mental and physical limitations. The desire to achieve knowledge and experience quickly was a serious obstacle to the achievement of my goals. It took many disappointments for me to understand; that it takes a great deal of time to transform a belief into a permanent reality.
I learned early in my life that if I needed advice and guidance in pursuing a personal goal , few people if any were able or willing to help. I realized as I grew older that no one ever lives up to their reputations. Belief was a public relations tool used masterfully by advertizing companies and academics, religions and celebrities to sell their products. They weren’t real. It was simply window dressing, decorations on a Christmas Tree or makeup on an ugly woman or slick advertizing on a mediocre product. If they get someone to believe in something when they are young by saturating the media with the message, then they have a customer or fan forever. This is most apparent in the American Auto Industry. There are still millions of Americans and people around the world who believe, that a Cadillac is a symbol of financial success, or that Campbell soups, loaded with salt and artificial ingredients, are “hearty and healthy” foods.
God said to someone once, ” Don’t place your trust in anything but me”. Some slick advertizing agency gave that idea to the Federal Reserve and they put it on their notes. Most of the people in the world, except for those who understand the U.S monetary system, think that a Federal Reserve Note is really a dollar bill. A federal reserve note is merely a piece of paper backed by the U.S Treasury. Few people are aware even though it is written on the note itself that it is only a promissory note to the Federal Reserve from the U.S government for which we the taxpayers must pay interest on at varying amounts of interest set by the Federal Reserve. No one except the bankers understand that our currency is not ours. Few people even know that the IRS is not a government agency. It is a collection agency for the Federal Reserve. Few people realize that the “Federal” Reserve is a private corporation comprised of 8 different banks; that have no constitutional or legal connection to the Federal Government other than as a private lender. Few people realize that the EYE on the top of the pyramid on a “Federal Reserve” note is not the EYE of God, but a pagan symbol of the Illuminati. The Illuminati is a global conspiratorial entity comprised of international bankers and wealthy families, that rule the planet.
“Oh believist as thou will.” We all have a free will. We can all believe in whatever we want to believe in, but few of us ever look into what we are so quick to believe. Few of us ever question what we are told to believe. We simply believe. It is easy, it is fun, it is foolish, it is childish. How many of us know never to trust any politician, yet every election period millions vote for someone else who is deceiving them. How many people still believe in Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny and force their children to believe in them? How many parents and teachers and priests and presidents, deceive themselves and all who listen to them with these myths; that they perpetuate to sell candy and consumer goods, raise donations, steal our country’s prosperity and security , steal our national soul and sanity?
Everyone can believe as they want to, but they must beware of what they believe in. It is easier to believe what others want us to believe, rather than to trust our own intuition. No one but ourselves can force us to believe in anything. I now only believe in myself and what myself convinces me is true. I do not believe what anyone else tells me on face value. I can not. I will not. I can only believe what I sense is true, and only after I have questioned its validity. I have too often been deceived by the sounds of Santa’s sleigh bells and bag of “made in a sweatshop in China” gifts. I have too often been disappointed by the Christian promise of Easter disguised in a pink or blue Easter Bunny costume. I have too often been disgusted by the treason and corruption of so many, who claim to be trustworthy leaders and institutions. The truth is often what we first feel, that those we place our trust in are most often complete frauds. Believing in our sober selves and listening to our intuition are our only guides to truth , and truth is the only guide to God.
TWO AL BIELIK AND GEORGE DICKSON INTERVIEWS ON THE L.A. STEEL SHOW
Two shows 3/9/07 and 3/14/07 with our guests George Dickson and Philadelphia Experiment survivor Al Bielik. We talk about time travel and Al’s amazing journey through time to the year 2745 from 1943. For more information before the show please go to Al’s website philadephia-experiment.com
Al Bielek is one of only two remaining survivors of the Philadelphia Experiment. In 1943 Al was a part of a Naval experiment that created a hole in time. Al was brought to the year 2175 and into 2745. He vividly accounts of what he saw and what he was shown by future human and alien societies that eventually integrated on earth. He was told that in 2745 only 500 million populated the earth. Many of the Global geographical landmarks had either disappeared underwater or were destroyed by quakes and other catastrophes. Similar to the destruction of the Atlantis Continent. There were no longer national or global governments only local governments; nor were their any religions. Humanity no longer trusted or had need for these institutions. They understood too well, the problems of national and global government as well as the bigotry, hatred, and historical error fostered by religions. Future generations of Humanity understood their responsibility to themselves and to their creation. All understood that one creator existed and they and their galactic neighbors were all part of his creation. Crimes were punished by computerized justice. If guilty of heinous crimes , the prisoner would be immediately vaporized. Guilt or innocence was judged by a computer system that could read minds. There were no mistakes of one’s guilt or innocence of a crime. Smaller infractions were dealt with differently but immediately. Al Bielek was introduced to the “Wingmakers” in 2745. They were half dolphin and half man. They were the keepers of the reality. Makers and maintainers of the computers that operated all of known society on earth.
Whether Al Beilek is correct or not regarding the future of the world , he is the only person in the world I know who verifiably time travelled. He states that this technology has been known and used since the late 1930’s. As a physicist and PHD he received a commission in the U.S Navy and worked with Nikoli Teslar; who was the discoverer of time travel. Al Beilek worked with Teslar to develop the first, time travel experiments for the U.S Navy. The project was commissioned and given funding by Franklin D. Roosevelt. All previous experiments were successful except for August 12, 1943. Al Beilek was on USS Eldridge conducting this experiment when he jumped overboard to escape death when a malfunction occurred with equipment. By his jumping into the water he saved himself but was still transported into the future and returned.
When I was a college student I wanted to be an artist. I wanted to paint and draw and do everything an artist did. I had several struggling artist friends. I spent a great deal of time in the Wadsworth Athenaeum in Hartford, Connecticut sketching the masters. I had made friends with several museum guards;who would often critique my work. On occasion they would let me do sketches of them. They would often laugh when I would have to erase or refused to show them the sketch until it was finished. Corrections were constant in my work. I could never be completely satisfied with the results. I still have that damned quirk in my character and I’m still trying to correct it.
As a young art student this drive for perfection was more of a compulsion stemming from a lack of self confidence, rather than a lack of talent. I realized during those years that everyone was a critic. The worst critics were those who knew absolutely nothing about art, unless they were praising their lava lamps or bongs. Those were tough times for a young artist trying to be taken seriously.
I no longer obsess over art . I just do what I do and say damn all critics. I once received second prize in a juried university art show. I entered a large portrait of a beautiful, ebony goddess who I secretly adored. She sat for the portrait and endured four sittings of two to three hours each, until it was completed. Her beauty was spectacular. Her poise was regal. I captured her perfectly. Often during these sittings other art students would come to watch as I added each fine detail. I gave her the painting after the art show. I met her more than twenty years later, when she told me she still kept the painting in her bedroom. That was the finest compliment I have ever received. The artist who came in first place had done a large, overworked abstract, and was an odds on favorite, very attractive, assistant in the art department. I received two commissions from that show and the heartfelt compliments of all who attended. I felt both robbed and rewarded. The first prize was $250.00, second was $100.00 . Self correction could have been applied then, when I allowed myself to feel slighted by the judges.
During my artist period I also wrote songs, played guitar and piano, performed and wrote poetry. I later tried to write several novels. I vented a blaze of creativity for nearly five mind numbing years. Rejection and the physical needs of food,clothing and shelter, became my ultimate enemies. A need for serious self correction became apparent, and I used my degree to get a corporate job. This wasn’t the smartest move for someone with an artistic flair, though I made many friends in that company. Friends who like myself were also going through a period of self correction.
I continue to correct myself in almost every aspect of my life. Apologizing to someone for saying something mean or careless. Driving at slower speeds after receiving a ticket. Trying not to say inappropriate comments in appropriate company. I try to keep myself at a two drink limit at parties. I try to make certain the hor’derves don’t have spinach in them. Self correction is a blessing and a curse, that leads me to obsessive self consciousness or to obnoxious elitism.
I never considered myself an elitist in anything, but when I see someone driving erratically in front of me, or hear someone cursing at someone else in a public setting , or someone so drunk that their loud laughter becomes so annoying you want to punch them, then I often get an attitude of intolerance, and self correct my attitude before I regret my actions.
Self correction is an art form I am unsuccessfully trying to perfect. Maybe life is just one continual self correction? If I accomplish anything right the first time around it’s purely by accident.
There comes a time in everyone’s life when we all need to disconnect ourselves from the world around us. Reality as we create it or it is created for us, often becomes too overwhelming for the senses to accept. When this occurs we can become anxiety ridden and irritable or we become apathetic and depressed. When I become overwhelmed, I simply disconnect all emotional circuits and meditate a while on something completely random. It may take a few minutes or even a few hours before the object or thought captures my attention. I’ve known some people who find it therapeutic to stare into a glass crystal. I often stare at a blank piece of paper, until some thought flow begins to come . It arrives from an unknown place within me and carries me into another world. At the end of the message I become exhausted as though I arrived back into my own mind or consciousness after a long absence. It may have only been a few minutes, but the disconnect is complete, the message is readable, and the moment of anguish has passed. Sometimes I will stare at the sky from my study window if something captures my attention, and I will observe it for a while.
A close friend of mine recently suffered a major stroke. He is paralyzed on his right side. He was barely conscious when I visited him. I had great difficulty looking at my friend in that way. I kept visualizing him the way he was several days earlier; when I last saw him healthy. Seeing him in such a bad state, hooked up to a respirator, was too much for my mind to accept. I had to excuse myself to the other people in the room and leave. I had to disconnect or grief would have completely overtaken me. I quickly walked out of ICU towards the elevators as I passed several other broken bodies laying unconscious in their beds. I briefly closed my eyes to avoid the sight.
As I entered the elevator I held the door opened for a young nurse, who looked compassionately at me. She knew I was holding back my tears and cast her gaze downward, until we arrived on the ground floor. As I got off the elevator I breathed in heavily, as if I had been unconsciously holding my breath for several minutes. I walked quickly to the main entrance and walked out into the cold air. I had to stop thinking about what I had seen. I stared at the buildings surrounding me, and watched the cars and people passing in front of me. I stood there awkwardly until the vision of my friend left my mind.
I began to walk as if I were half awake. I walked for more than a block around the hospital before I gained enough composure to go back to the waiting room. I returned to ICU to say goodbye to my friend. I wasn’t sure if it would be the last time I would see him alive. As of today he’s hanging on and his vital signs are stable.
The disconnect is still working. I have been able to write this about my friend without shedding a tear. I have been able to describe my emotion objectively. I can not know if what I am writing is worthy of anyone reading it,but it might be. The emotion of grief is universal, but the way it is expressed is uniquely individual. No one should blame anyone for the way they react to sorrow. I would rather retain self control, but that isn’t always possible. I would rather write about it instead of cry or get drunk, or go into a prolonged depression. Things happen, and the reason for their happening is The Law of Cause and Effect. Much of what happens good or bad in our lives is caused by the way we react to situations we are confronted with. We attract what we desire. The effects of our decisions become the results of our lives. What we most desire is what we attract. Everything that we think or do is who we are, and what we will become. That is a frightening thought for many, but it is a source of great hope and happiness for those who understand it.

Friday night with George Dickson, researcher and lecturer on esoteric knowledge. Tonight’s topic: Polar reversal and dramatic changes in South American weather patterns and historical earth changes.
I like circus clowns. I like their painted on smiles. If I could paint a permanent smile on my face I wonder if it would keep me happy? I have tried everything else I can think of to stay positive. It’s not the big things that bother me as much as it is the little things; that make me slide into a fit of rage or depression.
I get far more angry with myself than I do with anyone else. For instance, I was trying to replace a light fixture in a closet the other day. The fixture was at an awkward angle and about two inches higher than I was comfortable reaching. The closet ceiling was slanted because the closet was built under an eve. I began the project confidently, expecting to complete it within a few minutes ; until I realized that my flashlight wasn’t bright enough to see the connecting wires. An hour and a half later, after cursing myself into a permanent place in hell, I got the damned fixture up and working. I was mentally and physically exhausted. I had to stand in a half cramped position with the flashlight in my mouth, so I could hold the fixture with my other hand; while screwing in the tiny screws with a Phillips head screwdriver. I am 6 ft. 3 inches tall on a good day. I think I shrunk 8 inches that afternoon.
After I had the fixture up and working I was proud of my accomplishment. I pulled the string five or ten times turning the light bulb on and off, with a sense of defiance and victory over the demonic light fixture. I was so determined to get the fixture put up and working; that for an hour and a half I did nothing else, and thought about nothing else. I let my answering machine take all calls. I had become so angry at my own ineptitude as an electrician; that I continually cursed myself and the fixture’s manufacturer, for their making the fixture so difficult to install. I had worked myself into a living hell in that dark narrow closet. I became totally oblivious to the world outside. I was in a torturous physical position, with inadequate light from a narrow flashlight I was holding in my mouth; while I tried to direct the fading light on the fixture to connect the wires. A simple job for most people, turned into a nightmare of irrational anger and frustration for me.
I had been foolish to attempt the job without the proper tools or without the proper attitude. Once I finished the project and gloated with defiance over the demonic light fixture, I realized I had several important calls on my answering machine. My dog; who had been whining desperately to go outdoors , relieved himself on the floor near the front door.
My closet light works well. I grew back the 8 inches I had shrunk in height and I haven’t been quite as mad at anything since then. I learned something that day about me and my anger. I have to stop working myself into a frothing rage and fits of anxiety, by trying to fit square pegs into round holes. I now take a little precaution and planning before I tackle other household maintenance projects. I have established three rules that I follow. First: I will do only what I know I can do. Second: I make sure I have the right tools for the job. Third: For any job I am physically or mentally incapable of doing; I will hire an expert.
I have accepted the fact that I have certain limitations. I know my anger has a boiling point. I know if I reach that boiling point I will become temporarily insane. I know that aside from painting a permanent smile on my face; which would be another obvious sign of insanity, I must find other ways to avoid getting too angry. The best way I’ve found is to not take myself too seriously. That way if I am criticized, or caught in a closet with a flashlight in my mouth, or just pissed off at the world, I remember how ridiculous I can be; when I get too angry. I know how easy it is to be tortured in a hell of my own making.
Why does G.W Bush always appoint the most dubious , borderline and corrupt people to his administration? How did Alberto Gonzales fit into this Bushman hiring policy? Could it be that Bush needs people he can completely control? Bush needs people who will remain loyal to him, regardless how many criminal acts he commits. Gonzales was the perfect dupe.
It appears that Alberto Gonzales’s only qualification for Attorney General was his secret he held over G.W Bush. Good Buddy Alberto represented G.W in a court case, where G.W was arrested for DWI in Texas shortly before his run for governor of the state. Alberto managed to get the case dismissed and buried. Alberto’s qualifications were much like Harriet Myers, former special council to the President. She got her job because she knew where G.W’s dirty laundry was hidden. She was the wash lady who had to clean it.
It appears that Harriet the laundry lady, was given an extensive laundry list by G.W; when she suggested that G.W fire all U.S prosecutors and replace them with Bush loyalists. Thanks to the political intelligence of a few Bush advisors Harriet’s extensive laundry list was reduced to firing only a few Democrat U.S prosecutors.
It is easy to forget the “eagle soaring” Ashcroft. G.W’s first Attorney General. His qualifications were just as pathetic as Myers and Gonzales’s . Ashcroft is the only senatorial candidate in U.S history that lost his senatorial race to a dead man. His opponent died suddenly before the election and his name was kept on the ballot. Every voter in the state of Missouri was aware of the candidate’s death prior to the election, and still voted for him out of pure distrust and distain for Ashcroft. Ashcroft soon lived up to his reputation once appointed to Attorney General, and had to resign from the Bush Administration in disgrace.
Now we are viewing a bad remake of the same television series, brought to us nightly by the news networks. Alberto Gonzales has been told by the Congress to resign. I whole heartedly agree with Congress on this issue. As the Attorney General Alberto has managed to trash the U.S Constitution, defy the Geneva Conventions, strip all U.S citizens of their rights to privacy and habeas corpus, allow the illegal arrest and containment of American citizens and foreign non combatants; in a rendition program of torture and kidnapping to foreign countries. He has insulted every foreign nation, except Mexico, by his arrogance and ignorance. He is a legal carbon copy of G.W Bush’s personality. He is G.W’s Spanish speaking alter ego.
Alberto Gonzales is best understood by his recent apology for the notorious illegal alien, Mexican gang members, who plagued the western half of the U.S. He stated on national television; ” These Gang members were just a few misguided people, who had problems in their life.” Alberto also said, that he stood by the harsh sentencing of Compean and Ramos, two border patrol agents who shot a fleeing illegal alien drug smuggler. That Mexican drug smuggler received full immunity from the Justice Dept. to testify against the two Border Patrol agents, as the prosecutor’s only witness. Alberto Gonzales is first and foremost a Bush lackey. Second, Alberto Gonzales is a Mexican American, who’s loyalty seems to be with Mexican drug smugglers and gang members, rather than the American people. Third, Alberto Gonzales has proven himself to be totally incompetent in any legal or administrative capacity. Given these reasons alone without any further proof or investigations, Alberto Gonzales is unfit for office and must resign. I’m certain that he will find ample employment opportunities defending South American drug cartels and gangs facing criminal charges in the U.S courts. He may also be called upon to be a lawyer for the Chamber of Commerce to write the Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill with Ted Kennedy.
THE MISGUIDED MORALITY OF GENERAL PETER PACE
3/13/07
All Hail, the moral Marine, General Peter Pace! The only ass kissing general left in the Pentagon. The only “moral” Marine who thinks he can lead only his morally waivered troops to victory. Are only morons left to lead the Bush Wars? It is simply unbelievable that a Marine general could be so absolutely ignorant.
According to a recent article by the Associated Press, there are 65,000 gay and lesbian troops currently serving in the U.S armed forces. Gen. Peter Pace the four star general in charge of the Iraqis slaughter states publicly that “It is immoral to be gay.” How could this man have lived so long in the U.S military by being so stupid? How could he possibly equate a soldier’s sexual orientation as morally inferior to his own crimes and blood lust. Here is a man who can indifferently order the deaths of thousands of innocent Iraqis and label them as collateral damage. Here is a general who can give his salute, and obedience to a completely immoral president. Here is a man who has ordered the burning and bombing of villages and cities, and the torture and rape of Iraqis and Afghani men, women and children, and the pillaging and destruction of entire civilizations. Here is a trained psychopathic, killer, who has the sickness of mind to call 65,000 soldiers in his army immoral, determined solely on his own , personal and “ethical” abhorrence, to their sexual orientation. What kind of insane hypocrisy plagues this man? Who in their right mind can take him seriously?
Instead of being institutionalized in a hospital for the criminally insane he is placed by the Bush Administration in charge of the Iraq war. Who in hell is kidding who? What kind of complete and utter insanity are we witnessing? If a moron of such high immoral standing can attack the character of 65,000 men and women serving in the U.S armed services what must he think of the rest of the people in this country he is supposed to be defending?
General Peter Pace will not apologize to the 65,000 gay servicemen and women he has been appointed to lead into war. If I were a gay individual in the military I would never hide my head in shame and silence from the directives of such a complete idiot. If I were gay I would be marching my ass off proudly in high heels and full feathered regalia in the front line of the” Great Moral General’s” troop inspections. What would I have to loose? I might gain a full military discharge and my self respect? What will happen to Gen. Peter Pace if the cross dressing, three times married, Rudy Giuliani becomes the next Republican president? Will the moral General stand at attention and salute” Madame Giuliani”; who’s wearing a thong and high heels, and getting it on anally with his taxpayer paid for private secretary in the oval office, and closed, closeted, cabinet meetings ? Get real General Peter Pace before the American people and people around the world are reminded of the other general meaning of your first name.
THE IGNORANCE AND ARROGANCE OF ANDY ROONEY
3/12/07
I seldom watch CBS. My reasons are endless for that decision. I happened to be channel surfing last night and came across Andy Rooney’s 60 Minutes summary of his attitude towards the U.S Military. His final sentence of cynical stupidity was that the U.S military should accept more morally waivered soldiers for combat. He also stated that a draft should be reinstated.
I never liked Andy Rooney. I never trusted a word he’s ever spoken. I recall an article he wrote for a local Connecticut paper several years ago. He lived in Connecticut then, and may still. That article was a defense for rich people. I must paraphrase his statements since I didn’t keep the article. I remember it well because it was so typical of his elitist ,eastern establishment mentality. He stated in so many words that rich people shouldn’t be criticized because they are rich, but poor people should be because they weren’t rich. etc. etc. The article was loaded with Rooney’s typical sarcasm and cynicism. His phoniness and sick attempts at humor were splattered all over the article.
It occurred to me while I listened to Rooney’s” 60 Minutes” comments on the military and the draft; that this “80 something” national cynic, has never reached a level of wisdom achieved by others of his age. I began to consider how many other people in their 80s and still on national television news programs were as delusional as Andy Rooney is.
My departed grandmother was suffering from severe dementia when she reached her 80s. She passed away at 87 not knowing who anyone was. Every year we hear of hundreds if not thousands of elderly drivers in their 80s and 90s killing themselves or others in strange car accidents. These drivers crashed into buildings, crashed into crowds of people, crashed into their own garages. I had a dear old friend pass away 10 years ago at the age of 99; who was forced by his family and the police to stop driving at 92. His final accident was very serious. He couldn’t see very well in his right eye, and crashed into and tore someone’s driver’s side door off while the driver was about to exit his car. My old friend hit the door , ( thankfully not the other driver) and continued on without stopping. The door flew off and smashed into another parked car. My friend continued to drive home, parked his car in his driveway , went into his house and told no one of the incident; until the police showed up a few hours later. A witness had identified his license plate and my 93 year old friend was arrested for evading responsibility and reckless driving.
I loved the old guy and had known him for 10 years. We had a close relationship and he called me the day after his arrest to tell me what happened. He never once blamed himself for the accident and insisted it wasn’t his fault. It took me an hour on the phone with him to make him understand that it was his fault and the police were right in suspending his license.
What I loved about my friend was that he was eccentric as hell and had a wild and crazy attitude for life. He insisted that he continue to work at his trade as a barber; until a few years before his death. He had the wildest stories I’ve ever heard. Spending a Saturday morning with him at his shop was a joy. I would often stop by and see him on Saturday mornings to visit and see how he was. He shared with me many intimate stories about his life , some that would bring tears to his eyes. He trusted me with these stories and wanted to share them with someone who would listen. He had a unique wisdom and called himself a philosopher and a poet and would breakout into singing an Italian opera at the top of his lungs. I often laughed at his emotional tales and fits of anger,when he told me of the many people he had known and observed and situations he had been in during his life. What I loved about him was his honesty, stubbornness and genuine sincerity. As he entered his 90’s he began to repeat himself and he would admit he was not as spry as he was a few years earlier. He became more belligerent with people who didn’t take him seriously and his comments became more acrid and cynical. I was saddened to see him start to fail. After he lost his driver’s license he went through a year or two of resigned acceptance and then finally retired. His wife of 70 years threatened to divorce him if he didn’t retire; when they were threatened to be sued by a customer who suffered a serious nick on the back of his head from the barber razor. My friend’s defense was, the customer talked and moved his head too much . He realized after a family intervention, that he had to give up the barber shop.
I have a great respect for anyone who has lived longer than I have. Life is difficult and everyone’s life experiences are different and if they can relate them to others as my friend did to me wisdom can be found in those stories. So many of our elderly have valuable stories to relay to others who will take time to listen. Andy Rooney however, is not worth listening to. His cynicism is bloated by his exalted ego and financial success. What he fails to see is what my old friend failed to see, after he evaded responsibility and nearly killed someone. Andy Rooney’s irresponsible comments about allowing mentally deficient people into the military and reinstating the draft is a criminal evasion of responsibility. He knows he will never face combat and never did. He knows he has been bought off by the powers to say what he says. He never had the courage to speak truth to power. If anything he’s been their spokesman. He knows that he’s seen as a greedy, cranky old man, who cares for no one but himself. His drooling hypocrisy flows from his mouth like a fountain of dribbling saliva. Face the facts Mr. Rooney. Your a hypocrite. Your a menace to yourself and society. Your segment on 60 Minutes should be cancelled before you embarrass yourself any further. Retire before your cynical remarks and elitist stupidity spoken on national television are responsible for the deaths and ruined lives of more young men and women. Your evasion of responsibility is apparent to everyone, who watches your weekly car crashes on 60 Minutes.
I have been to several Washington D.C rallies in the past four years. I have heard all the speeches and seen all the signs and have made four documentaries on the D.C rallies. I have asked myself in the past year if my efforts were worth it. I believe however, little if anything has changed. Bush is still in office, Congress is still ineffective, Americans are still loosing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. I have lost several friends, who I thought were my friends, because of my changing views.
Truth is a difficult pill to swallow. It can cure the disease of deception or it can kill the patient. Truth is a blessing if the mind is prepared to accept it. So many generations have been deliberately deceived and distanced from truth they can no longer recognize it. When the truth is self evident, in your face accurate, and totally recognizable, they ignore it or condemn it as conspiracy theory,or revisionism, or anti religious or anti government. This is the national dialogue. These are the foolish answers given by the Left and the Right. The Christian Right is a total lost cause. They have been led into Limbo by their leaders since the earliest days of Catholicism. Truth appeared briefly under the Protestant Reformation, but was soon covered up, condemned as heresy and witchcraft, or manipulated by the Catholic Church and the Protestant evangelicals. They preferred the fire and brimstone method of collecting alms and tythings. They feared telling the truth to their followers and created their myths to appease and convert the pagans and justify their own deceptions and desire for power.
What is the truth behind these mass marches on Washington D.C? What is the truth behind the leadership of the Left? The truth is Globalism. The truth is that many if not all of the organizers of these events are either paid provocateurs, egomaniacal extremists, or simply misguided. Where are they really leading the hundreds of thousands of participants in these protests? What are they actually saying to them? I can understand the need to vent anger and frustration over the impotent and incompetent leadership in Washington D.C , but what are these protestors willing to replace it with? I have heard their cries for international justice and placing the U.N in charge of U.S foreign policy. I have heard their speakers cry out against the corrupt and dictatorial policies of G.W Bush, but I have not heard any reasonable alternative; other than DOWN WITH THE SYSTEM or IMPEACH BUSH.
The American middleclass does not have the heart or the motivation for a revolution. They do not have a leader that can motivate them into revolutionary fever. The pathetic shouts and screams for revolutionary change coming from unkempt, tee shirted , mo mos on a platform, just doesn’t cut it without an audience stoned on pot or LSD. Many of the unillustrious,unknown speakers at these rallies are absolutely pathetic. Many of them are there for a power trip, others are paid to be there for the purpose of raising money and attention for their organizations. “WE ARE GOING TO HAVE BUSH ARRESTED!” WE ARE THE PEOPLE AND WE ARE THE POWER!” WE, WE , WE , WE , in most cases they mean I, I ,I ,I.
It would be wrong of me to discredit the honest anger,frustration and patriotism of the good citizens that go to these mass rallies. I understand their motivation I was one of them. I understand what they are trying to say and do by exercising their Constitutional Rights. However, I have come to also understand the realities behind the Bush administration and the U.S Congress. Unless there is a serious violent protest or effective non violent protest to physically stop this government’s destructive actions nothing will change. Our cynical and cowardly Representatives,Senators and President will simply ignore us. They will ignore our shouts and signs and songs and sit ins. They will ignore our petitions and our Rights to Free Speech and Assembly. They condemn and ridicule us. The corporate media completely ignores or under reports our valiant efforts to be heard. Unless these elected members of government and the corporate media are physically threatened,or the operation of the U.S government is paralyzed by a massive nationwide protest there will be no changes. We the People are the power, but only if we the people are properly led and understand,that political and social change has never happened without bloodshed. It has never happened without effective leadership. Few Americans,except our military are willing to shed their blood for their country. Few if any Americans can be torn away from “American Idol” , or “Desperate Housewives” to attend a strategy meeting on revolutionary tactics to overthrow their government. Few ever attend publicized town meetings. The vast majority of Americans are even unaware of the accurate history of how their own country was founded.
Americans are so unmotivated to revolt against their present system of government that, they would much rather medicate their anger and frustrations and ignore their civic responsibilities and duties. Eleven million illegal aliens are in the U.S. Eleven million undocumented people from every nation in the world. The motives and existence of these millions of illegal aliens are virtually unknown to most Americans and uninvestigated or unexamined by the Federal Government. We are daily bombarded by the media and government spokesmen about the eminent dangers of terrorists within our borders, yet we have a Congress and President that want to give all eleven million illegal aliens complete amnesty and citizenship without knowing who they are. Our own government mocks us and our Constitution. They insult us. They humiliate us. They ignore us. They arrest us. They tax us. They send our sons and daughters to war. They bankrupt our Treasury. They encourage U.S companies with tax breaks and free trade agreements to outsource our jobs to other countries. They are secretly selling our ports and infrastructures to foreign countries. They intentionally are destroying our public educational system. They are stealing,lying to, and cheating the American people. What more proof will it take to make Americans wake up to this wastrel, fraud of a government? What more proof is needed to convince Americans? How can they not demand change after witnessing the recent public trial and conviction of Scooter Libby, who held one of the highest appointed offices in the Bush Administration?
While most Americans including myself will stay at home on the 17th of March 2007, hundreds of thousands of Americans will be riding on buses to be at the mass Pentagon rally in D.C. These good hearted souls will endure extreme discomfort, bad meals, bad company, and bad weather, because they feel they must do something to vent their anger against their government. Once they arrive in D.C they will be immediately under surveillance by the FBI, CIA and NSA, and other less notable agencies. They will be herded onto the Washington Mall and forced to hear booming, over amplified voices, cursing G.W Bush and calling for his impeachment. Calling for the return of the troops. Calling for a stop to the Wars. Calling for universal health care, Calling for an end to homelessness. Calling for amnesty to 11 million illegal aliens. etc, etc. etc.. These anal retentive, radical speakers will call for every unbelievable and delusional political action on their wish list. They will add compassion and drama to their speeches by bringing poor little Mexican illegal children on the stage in the company of a Catholic priest. They will go to any length of theatrics to sway their listeners to their Globalist backed and paid for agenda.
These good , patriotic and misled Americans protestors will be sprayed with a bioweapon by over head helicopters, assaulted by police officers, subjected to standing in lines of 10 or 20 people all anxiously waiting to relieve themselves in a nauseating, horrid, overflowed, Port a Potty. Imagine the joy of being there. I have been there. This is an accurate depiction. It wasn’t a joy.
After the speeches and the march and all of the many distractions, delays and annoyances everyone will be herded to the overcrowded subway station, catch or miss the right train and walk back to their buses. There they will talk to their comrades and fellow protesters and wait in the cold until everyone returns. Too often the departure is delayed because of someone who got lost or didn’t tell anyone they were driving or flying back home, or got sick, or went site seeing and lost track of time.
These are just a few of the many joys and wonders of a mass Washington D.C protest, organized by leftist leaders and organizations with globalist agendas. However, the tale of torture is not finished. These good Americans who have responsibly exercised their constitutional rights to protest must endure the long and arduous journey home. Most will sleep or try to. Many will talk to each other without listening. Most will try to shake off the paralysis creeping up their legs and into their thighs caused by the cramped seating and long day of standing and marching in the cold air.
There is always an obvious lack of 20 and 30 Somethings at these protests. Most of the protestors are middle aged, middleclass parents responding to the call of the Left to gather en masse in their nation’s capital to vent their anger, and demonstrate their disapproval of Bush, the Congress and the war. So many are “Good Democrats” and lost liberals, who have swallowed the bait,hook,line and sinker of the Leftist’s leadership. They do not realize that so many of these organizations are funded by the CIA to keep tabs on activists, or by socialist and revolutionary globalist fronts and foundations. These rallies are organized to sway the angry American liberal into believing, that Socialist and Globalist ideologies are the future of America. These are the essential dogmas, that they demand all Americans should follow and believe. These are merely godless ideologies and totalitarian concepts cleverly disguised in compassionate and fiery speeches denouncing the social injustices of the American system. Their speakers shout revolutionary rhetoric without valid recourse or reason. Their speeches advocate hate and chaos, lies and mob insanity . Their only real issue is to bring about Marshall Law, crowd control , world government and the destruction of the United States.
I will never attend another mass rally, unless it is sponsored by people and organizations I can trust. I have no trust in any national, leftist organization. I have researched their major funding sources and their message and found them to be Anti American. We can not tear down our country. We must repair what we have allowed to fall into ruin. We can not trust anyone who would lessen our sovereignty or weaken our strength as a people and as a nation. Revolution is eminent in America, but I will never fight on the side of those who would destroy this country. I will fight on the side that will rebuild it by restoring our lost liberties and ridding our three branches of government of all cowards, criminals and collaborators. I will proudly go to war against our external and internal enemies, and slay them unmercifully as a symbol to the world; that America will not tolerate any attacks or infiltrations on its soil. America will not listen to lies from a Globalist Left and Right, or powerful bankers and industry lobbyists. America will honor its promise to its citizens of their constitutional freedoms, a strong military and strong currency to protect its people and economy, and promise a foreign policy of non intervention. These ideals were the most politically Liberal ideals ever conceived by men, and instituted into a Constitution and living document. This was done to preserve the vision of the endless possibility of human achievement. Its purpose was never to subvert the world population to accept Globalist tyranny under a New World Order.
I have been encouraged lately from all the wonderful news arriving daily in my email. For instance Scooter Libby has been convicted and will serve jail time. Dick Cheney is having considerable trouble and has finally been exposed for what he is. G.W Bush is at a 30 % approval rating and sinking further. G.W is planning a five country tour of South America to try and bolster his image as a war criminal and devil. Hundreds of thousands of South Americans are preparing a warm welcome for him with firebombs and straw stuffed dummies resembling his small stature to burn in effigy.
I am pleased to see Bill Gates is being sued by companies around the world, for his piracy and monopolistic practices. I am surprised and pleased to see Jimmy Carter exposing the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians. I am delighted to see the media recoiling in defense of the surgence of power of the blogosphere. I am also delighted to see the network news programs declining rapidly in their ratings and influence. I am encouraged that Lou Dobbs is really attacking the hobgoblins in the power structure of this country. I am impressed with the recent polls that show most people in the U.S and around the world believe, that 911 was orchestrated by the Bush Administration and other U.S government agencies. I am very pleased to see the isolation of G.W Bush by his supposed allies. I am pleased to see John Bolton out of the U.N . I am pleased to see Koffi Annan resign. I am very pleased to note that many of Israel’s top government officials are being indicted for sex offenses and corruption. I am pleased that the U.S “New Left” is pulling their support away from Israel, and away from the Establishment’s liberal elite icons.
I am pleased to see the Republican party routed from their majority in Congress, and so many former members and lobbyists are finally being indicted and convicted on corruption charges. I am pleased to see Hillary Clinton having so much trouble from Obama’s opposition. I am hopeful that both Hillary’s and Obama’s presidential ambitions will be dashed by the announcements of better candidates. I look forward to further clashes of the Republican candidates as they begin to undress and cross dress in front of television cameras to raise interest in their campaigns. I am delighted to see all of the Republican pundits heckling their own party members and president even on Fox News. I am extremely encouraged by the veterans and active soldiers finally demanding adequate care and attention be given to them. Also that thousands of active soldiers in Iraq have signed a petition to end the war. I am disappointed that Donald Rumsfeld isn’t being brought up on criminal charges for his war crimes, total disregard for military families and his abuse of the U.S Military. I am encouraged however, that he is nowhere to be seen publicly and perhaps he will be hauled before a congressional investigation for his criminal neglect and cutbacks of military hospitals and veteran benefits.
There is so much to be encouraged by that even the most pessimistic can find something to be hopeful about. I am very pleased to see that Universal Health Care is a main issue in the 2008 presidential campaign promises. I am impressed with the recent attempts of the Democrats and hopeful of their victory to find a way to end the Iraq War. I hope they will have the courage to finally stop funding it.
There is much to be encouraged by, but also much to be discouraged by. As I review national and international headlines and research books, statistics and random comments of science, national security and political experts, I often become overwhelmed by the immensity of problems facing Humanity. Global pollution, massive genocides, war and torture, monetary collapses, global epidemics of drug addiction, aids, starvation, world wide governmental corruption, murders, suicides, prison overpopulation, judicial corruption, radical rises in hate crimes, juvenile delinquency and childhood sex and alcoholism, destruction of public educational systems, the list of woes and worries are endless. I cope with bad news by trying hard to understand its sources. If I can factually determine why these things are happening then I can discern ways of possibly correcting them, and see light and hope at the end of my tunnel of discouragement. People around the planet must not give up hope. We must not despair , we must not allow ourselves to become overwhelmed and apathetic. We must daily put on our battle gear and fight more effectively with the few weapons we have. Our votes and voices do count. The collective concern, courage, and integrity of people and their nations have always been adequate to power the strength, resolve and faith needed, to rid our planet of the corrupt institutions, dictators and dilemmas, that plague us. I am encouraged by the resilience of mankind, and confident that humanity will create a new and better world. I believe that this new and better world will be realized in my lifetime because billions of people have awoken to the same vision, and are discovering their power to make it come true.
WILLIAM F.BUCKLEY JR’S DECEPTIONS EXPOSED ON THE L.A. STEEL SHOW TONIGHT
3/7/07
John McManus President of the John Birch Society will discuss his book , “William F. Buckley Jr. The Pied Piper for the Establishment.”
Amazing revelations of who William F. Buckley really is. Is the nation’s top establishment magazine The National Review, CIA funded? How can a confirmed Trotskyite, Skull and Bonesman and CIA operative be anointed by the Left as the spokesman for the Conservative Establishment? Proof of CFR betrayal of America. Communist infiltration in the highest government offices of the U.S for over 50 years. Learn how the CIA openly defended the hiring of hundreds of Russian double agents, who have destroyed American Foreign policy. The Neo Cons are all Trotskyite Communists in conservative disguise. This is fact not fiction. The Conservative movement has no leadership because the movement has been taken over by Buckley followers. Buckley’s deception was discovered by the Young Republicans.
Listen to this program and learn the truth of the Grand Deception of the connections of Neo Cons, Communism and the myth of Establishment Conservatism.
THE FOURTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE L.A.STEEL TALK RADIO SHOW
3/5/07
I am amazed that I have been able to remain on commercial radio for four years. Four years of the most convulsive and historically important time in American and world history. The L.A. Steel Show began on 3/04/03 10 days before the invasion of Iraq . I began the program as a protest to the thousands of conservative talk shows advocating the war. In March of 2003 thousands of hours of conservative talk shows cluttered the airwaves with patriotic pablum and putrid hypocrisy. The massive collection of these idiotic,insane, bigots, fascists and fanatics,collectively contained the intellectual capacity of a cue ball. These thousands of insane idiots were praising the” strategery” of a completely corrupt and utterly incompetent president. I could not stand it anymore. When I approached the station manager of WQQQ,I was pleased to find a courageous friend,who allowed the” Liberal” L.A. Steel Show to go on the air .
In the last four years as a radio talk show host I have had the advantage of interviewing some of the major opinion makers in the United States. I have discovered, as I hope my listeners have, that the great difference between the politicatl Right and Left is the ignorance of facts on both sides. My extensive research over the last four years has been critical to keeping up with current events, and to create a credible and informed opinion on a multitude of complex issues. This website was given the unofficial title of “THE STEEL EDGE”, specifically to capture my personal opinions and statements on certain topics and issues. Topics and issues that I do not have the time or uncensored forum to discuss as frankly on radio as extensively as I do on this website.
Against all good judgment I have created hundreds of random articles dealing with the many issues and topics I have studied. Topics I have either experienced personally or dealt with from a studious approach, or treated as trivial or intense ideas and observations. As my television, radio and reading audiences have grown over the years my awareness of those audiences has also grown. I doubt that I have become more cautious in expressing my opinions, but I sense that lately I may be expressing them better or more clearly.
Since October 2006 I have seen a substantial rise in my website visits. My visit, hit and bandwidth stats have grown exponentially since October 2006. My February stats floored me at nearly 100,000 hits for the shortest month of the year. This was the best month I had ever had. I know that my new BlogTalkRadio program which began in late November 2006 was responsible for some of the increase however, my internet show stats do not account for the majority of this increase in activity.
After some reflection over this phenomena I have come to the conclusion that my eclectic selection of guests and topics have suddenly attracted a larger audience. My attitude of spontaneous selection has caused some chaos in my thought processes. I believe that has been self evident in my many statements and comments I have published on this site. Barring my momentary lapses into emotional rants I believe I have managed to retain enough coherence and sanity in my writings for my readers to grasp the essence of what I am trying to say. I have also considered the possibility that I may be focused upon as a national psychological experiment observed by thousands of scientists, psychiatrists and linguists each month. Since the infancy of this website I have noticed the remarkable interest I’ve received from many universities around the world as well as a few government agencies and medical facilities. Asian, European and American universities’ internet addresses appear as frequent visitors to this site.
I want to revert to the original intent of this article by stating my appreciation to all who have read,listened to and viewed my work. I understand the effort it takes to set aside a minute or an hour of a day to devote to what someone else has to say. I find it an uncomfortable position to be in when my audience is noticeable, but virtually invisible and anonymous. It is humbling and at the same time encouraging.
Ralph Waldo Emerson has inspired me for many years. He once stated, he felt his writings were unreadable. He also stated; (pardon my paraphrase) ” A writer must write for and to himself. When he speaks truthfully to himself, he speaks to the soul of everyone.”
This virtually sums up my method of madness as a writer,radio talk show host and producer of a television series. I never know what will interest my audiences until I create something for them to consider. What I create may be good,bad or mediocre. I am never satisfied with anything I create,unless I find merit in it and it speaks truth to me. My technical ability and experience is an ever evolving skill,that I am constantly trying to acquire with varying results. I am pleased that so many people have had patience and found merit in what I do.
Tomorrow night I will be celebrating the fourth anniversary of The L.A. Steel Show on WQQQ 103.3 fm. This anniversary accounts for over two hundred live commercial radio broadcasts. I thank Dennis Jackson the station owner and Joe Loverro the station manager for their continued support and friendship. I thank Leila my co host and “Starman”Bill Marshall for being with me each week ,and enduring this amazing odyssey. I will also be celebrating my eighth year and 400th cable television program in July of this year. I am in the process of editing and selecting the” Best Of “to display on this website, and be made available to download . I can’t thank everyone enough who have had a part in my many productions. My greatest appreciation goes to Leila,my co host and partner,and my heartfelt thanks include the many friends I have made during these years. I can not end without giving special thanks to my few loyal and courageous sponsors, who have made these shows financially possible. Also I give special thanks to my remarkable friend Rob Brenckman,for his creation and continued care of this website. I sincerely thank the L.A. Steel Show audience. I hope that I may continue to retain your interest.
The recent Presidential Visit to tornado devastated Alabama is another feeble Bush Administration public relations move. Receiving a hug from G.W Bush is as meaningless as getting hugged by a burdock bush .
What is this new found compassion from a President who wouldn’t visit a V.A hospital or attend a funeral service for any soldier killed in Iraq in the last four years? What is this new found compassion from a son of bitch who would not respond for nearly a week to the devastated victims of Hurricane Katrina? This lying son of a bitch is the most heartless bastard who ever sat in the Oval Office.
Does this lying son of a Bush think that anyone believes anything he says? He’s a pathological liar,a war criminal,a corrupt bastard; who has sold this country’s integrity and future to the highest campaign donor. The dripping hypocrisy of G.W Bush makes Machiavelli look like an unmolested altar boy.
If I were an Alabama resident I would be sickened and worried by this Bush visit. He’s proven in the past that where ever he shows up nothing gets done or done right. Everything he touches turns to crap. Keep your hugs to yourself G.W Bush. The only heart felt hug you’ve ever given was during a dry heave, when you hugged a toilet bowl.
I have held off writing about Anna Nicole Smith’s carnival of calamity until now. It was not clear to me until recently; as to what attracted my attention and the attention of the television watching world to Anna Nicole Smith’s strange and tragic life.
The details of her life’s story are stranger than a Sci-Fi mystery. The bizarre list of characters is a novelist’s nightmare. An internationally known, Marilyn Monroe look alike , a villainous lawyer / manager. An 89 year old Texas billionaire; who marries a 26 year old, big breasted, blonde, stripper, Playboy Playmate; who speaks with a Texas drawl. The son of the dead billionaire, contesting Anna’s claim to 500 million dollars after her two year marriage to his father. He suddenly dies from a heart attack after the will is contested in the U.S Supreme Court. Even the President of the United States encourages a Supreme Court decision in Anna’s favor.
In chapter two of this outrageous novel poor Anna is seen successfully fighting her weight problem in a nationally publicized weight loss program. Her picture is plastered on every gossip magazine in world. Her on going personal battle with alcohol and prescription drug addiction creates greater public interest. She is seen and heard on every television news program slurring her speech and staggering at celebrity functions.
In chapter three world wide attention is given to her sudden pregnancy and the questionable paternity claims of half a dozen fathers. An even further, unbelievable, character is Zsa Zsa Gabor’s 8th and most current husband, who is in his 70s and nick named by his friends ” The Prince of Beverly Hills”. He claims to have had a long affair with Anna and he is the father of her daughter. Another paternal possibility is a frozen embryo fertilized by Anna’s dead 89 year old, billionaire husband! No publisher would even consider publishing a work of fiction so totally unbelievable. To add further insult to a bad novel Anna’s 20 year old son , who has been kept virtually unknown to the media, arrives at his mother’s bedside in a Bahamas hospital; after she gives birth to her daughter. If that isn’t enough to throw the book away her son dies in the hospital bed next to her two days later by a mysterious drug overdose possibly administered to him by her manager / lawyer; who was also sleeping in the same hospital room with her , and discovered the son was dead. Anna was woken up by Howard K Stern her manager / lawyer, (not the famous radio personality) and became hysterical, and tried to revive her son by CPR ; until the hospital staff arrived.
A few weeks after her son’s death while in mourning for her son Anna becomes overwrought and continues her abuse of prescription drugs, supplied to her by her lawyer / manager; while she is undergoing intravenous drug withdrawal treatments, in the same Bahamas hospital that her son died in, and her daughter was born in. To make matters even more screwed up Anna signed the birth certificate of her daughter claiming her manager / lawyer as the father. Three days later her son dies in the hospital bed next to her. Her Will stated, that her estate would all be given to her son. Her manager / lawyer never drew up another Will after his death, which left the existing Will null and void. The only heir listed in the Will had died by mysterious circumstances, which involved Howard K. Stern (not the popular radio personality) who was Anna’s manager / lawyer, lover , father of her daughter, drug dealer. In a later testimony given by Anna’s live in lover, one of the claimants of fatherhood of Anna’s daughter stated under oath; that he knew Anna and Howard Stern, her manager / lawyer, never had sex together. He stated that Howard Stern often slept on the downstairs’ couch, while he always slept with Anna. He also stated under oath; that Anna had told him shortly after she was pregnant that he was the baby’s father.
In chapter four , poor grief stricken Anna is contemplating suicide to join with her dead son. She refused to allow a paternity test demanded by her celebrity photographer, ex boyfriend, and live in lover. He stated under oath in court testimony; that he is the rightful father of Anna’s daughter, and her manager / lawyer, manipulated Anna into naming him as the father of her daughter. Her manager / lawyer refused to submit to a DNA test and kept poor, grief stricken, Anna in a steady supply of prescription drugs which allowed him to control her. The plot becomes totally unfathomable as the public witnesses Anna’s mental unraveling as she gives incoherent, nationally televised and printed interviews to the media. Unbelievably, within four months of the death of her son, and birth of her daughter poor Anna is found dead in her room in Florida at a ” Hard Rock Hotel”. She died from an apparent overdose of prescription drugs combined with methadone. The same deadly cocktail of drugs that killed her son. Too make the plot even more convoluted, the coroner’s report stated; that there was no foul play as a cause of Anna’s death, and that she also suffered from a congenital heart problem, which was complicated by her prescription drug abuse.
In chapter five, Anna’s ex live in boyfriend’s law suit demand for a DNA sample is contested by Anna’s manager /lawyer; who is specified on the birth certificate as the father of Anna’s daughter. Meanwhile, Anna’s estranged mother files a law suit for custody of Anna’s body, to be buried in Anna’s home state of Texas. She also filed to receive custody of Anna’s daughter. The most absurd irony of this strange story is; that Anna’s famous body , celebrated in Playboy magazine as ” Playmate of the Year” and ogled at by millions of her male fans, lies in a morgue unembalmed and rapidly deteriorating for three weeks. A nationally televised, carnival like, court hearing overseen by an insane judge, prolongs the simple probate decision to optimize his own national attention for an opportunity of receiving a lucrative, daytime courtroom television program on a major network.
I have been wondering how the next chapter now being written of the “Insane Saga of Anna Nicole Smith” will turn out. As creative as I might be I can not write anything more twisted or absurd than what has already transpired in the first five chapters of this never ending real life novel. I have read that Anna’s body will be buried finally in a ceremony in the Bahamas. Her mother lost her law suit to have Anna’s body buried in Texas. I have read that 300 close friends and relatives have been invited to Anna’s burial ceremony . Her closed coffin was covered with a pink rhinestone drape and pink roses, which was Anna’s favorite flower and color. She was buried in a special hand made beaded gown. A DNA test has been ordered by the court to determine the biological father of Anna’s daughter. A court assigned administrator was assigned to Anna’s daughter Danny Lynn, until legal custody can be determined.
I have reported this strange story as I have understood it based upon the media coverage I have heard and read. I am trying to understand it myself. I end this article at chapter six of the “Continuing Saga of Anna Nicole Smith”. I am as confused by this story as anyone. That is why I felt the need to write about it.
I wondered if I could learn anything from the tragic life of Anna Nicole Smith? I wonder if Anna is at peace with her son? I wonder if Anna is a symbol of the times we live in? Did her drive for fame and fortune , compounded by her addictions, push her to insanity and suicide? Did her obsession with the Hollywood image of Marilyn Monroe lead her down the destructive path, that destroyed both women? Did Anna understand that Marilyn was really Norma Jean Baker not the illusion created by Hollywood producers and makeup artists? Will Anna’s daughter ever know and understand who her real mother was? Will she ever know who her real father is? These are just a few of the questions I hope will be answered in the continuing saga of, “The Life and Death of Anna Nicole Smith”.
What and where is reality? We must become one with reality before we can identify it. Does my reality relate at all with anyone else’s? Can what I am thinking and living and feeling also be part of someone else’s reality? Even in the most intimate of relationships few people if any can synthesize the same emotions, thoughts or actions at the same moment.
How often do two people become totally satiated and syncopated entirely to the emotions and desires of each other, either sexually or spiritually? How often does a conversation go over the head of someone we are trying to convey an important subject to? Every teacher is aware that they are not in the same reality as their students. It is their jobs to bring them into that reality with discipline and the honest interest of their students so they may learn. Because someone shares the same common space in time does not mean they share the same reality. How often have we completely ignored the person sitting near or next to us on a bus or plane or train or even in our own homes? Our barriers are both physical and virtual. No one at this moment, while I am writing is sharing this reality with me. Once I publish my thoughts I welcome all to read them and enter my reality for that moment in time, when these words were written. Some will venture in to greet me, while others will not.
I must accept that my thoughts are my own and are arrived at by my own deliberation, study and reflection. Unless all men and women are clones of each other , and live within the same exact reality for their entire lives, they can never think exactly the same way. It is this unique difference that makes human beings the most remarkable of all creation.
Children live within their endless fantasies. To a child all fantasy is reality. If we play the mad hatter with our daughters, who serve us invisible tea and cakes, then we are lovingly reinforcing that reality. If we speak to each other with inventive dialogue, we create a new shared reality, until a new individual focus pulls us apart.
Writers create new realities constantly it is their profession. Political realities are not at all the same as personal realities. As we decide or have decided for us what we will be doing on any specific day we are either creating our day, or having our day created for us. If we do not decide our courses of actions, they will be decided for us. We must always act first, before we are acted upon.
Everyone’s reality is distorted towards their needs and desires. If I want something to happen I must enter the accustomed thought pattern to get it accomplished. I must focus on reinforcing someone else’s reality; rather than my own if I want to accomplish something someone else requires of me.
Reality is what we think it is. Reality is what we believe it is. My reality is different from anyone else just as everyone’s differs from everyone. How different is a blonde individual’s reality from a brunette’s reality? How different is a white man’s reality from a black man’s reality, or white or black women’s reality? There is only one unifying law in human reality and that is the physical law of gravity. To my knowledge no man or women has ever been able to walk on air. They can fly by artificial means, but no one that I have ever witnessed or heard of except Superman has ever been able to fly under their own power. All we do as physical beings is regulated within the boundaries of our physical plain. The human spirit has no such boundaries, except those we place on ourselves.
The most oppressive boundaries placed upon the human spirit are ideologies and dogmas. Religion is the oppressor of the soul. Religion is the prison guard. Religion is the slave master. Religion is the cruelest of all manipulations. In religions fools and felons thrive. Because of religions humanity flounders in bigotry and ignorance. All prophets no longer speak clearly to mankind. Religions have made it impossible to hear the words of the prophets any longer. They have censored and edited and destroyed much of the original teachings.
Religions are notorious for creating false realities and convincing the poor and wealthy followers alike; that the way to heaven and eternal splendor, is only through the financial and ideological support of their church. I do not believe in any institutional religion. I only believe in a Creator, and my own intuition, to understand the proper path to follow in life. If there is a wrong path and I choose to follow it, then I must correct it or suffer the consequences of my choices. This is how the human spirit operates. Conformity has its merits however, individual thought is what creates our unique reality. My thoughts are not necessarily anyone else’s, and I fully accept that as a significant and sacred part of being human. The similarities of my thoughts with others are the common ties that bind me to this world. I intuitively identify other worlds, within my world, as I move closer towards the center of the soul of creation.
When I was very young I would imagine myself as a giant when I played with my toy soldiers. I would move my toy soldiers around the battlefield floor of my bedroom. I would constantly change their positions and the terrain they fought on. Sometimes I would make them fight against an invisible alien, sometimes against my dog who would stick his nose in the middle of my battlefield. As a giant general I was invincible.
My smallness was apparent to me when my mother would stand over me, and tell me to clean up my room. I was well aware of my smallness, when I played in my backyard, and saw how tall the house was and how tall the trees were, and how far away the sky was or how high a bird could fly.
I sought ways of becoming taller by climbing trees. Sometimes I would lay on my back in the grass and look up into the sky. I would watch clouds pass by and imagine being in them or on top of them. I would imagine flying with birds and flying by myself anywhere I wanted to go. I would imagine myself thousands of feet tall.
My need to be taller became more urgent as I fought in the school yard against bigger and taller boys. I was no longer an invincible giant general ordering tiny, plastic, soldiers into battle. I was a small boy in real battles. It took several years and many defeats before I grew smart enough, and big enough, to successfully defend myself.
One afternoon after school I won a three boy battle caused by the unsolicited attentions I had received from the other two boy’s girlfriends. I walked away bruised, but undefeated. When I got home I went to my backyard and laid down in the grass and looked at the sky. Emboldened by my victory I wondered if I could touch the sky if I reached out far enough. I reached for the sun that was shining directly over me and held it in my hand. I reached for a cloud and held it between my right forefinger and thumb. I touched a flying bird that flew near the cloud, until it disappeared into the sun. I closed my eyes and saw myself flying into the white mist of the cloud. I was in the cloud. I was certain. I opened my eyes to see the world beneath me and I became blinded by the sun and closed my eyes again. I felt myself melding into its light. I felt suspended in air as I laid there. I later opened my eyes and got up off the ground. I believed I was invincible. I looked up at the cloud overhead and stared at the sun and sky as familiar places I had just visited. My eyes were filled with dazzling light. My mind and body were rested. I heard a melody in my mind and began to whistle the tune, and heard the sound of the song become real.
I have not forgotten that afternoon. I have recalled the memory many times. That experience made me understand the power of my own creation. I am convinced that all people can be invincible, but the human mind places limitations on itself, that the human spirit must not accept.
AN UNREPORTED,ON GOING,ENVIRONMENTAL CATASTROPHE

I have recently became aware of a very well kept,catastrophic, environmental secret. I am embarrassed by my ignorance of this grave environmental issue. I have tried to rationalize my own faint awareness and inaction towards this horrendous national disaster, but I can only find fault with the companies involved, and the criminally negligent and complicit mainstream media as a the local, state and federal governments, for permitting this crime of widespread environmental destruction and pollution to continue uninvestigated and unreported.
I urge my readers to visit, (ilovemountains.org) in my link section, to view several video presentations and articles and see for yourselves what I have seen. I have not ignored environmental issues in my articles and radio programs, but I am not as deluged by environmental newsletters or updates as I am with other current events. So many environmental organizations are underfunded or understaffed for the numerous issues and concerns they are working to publicize. I can not stress more earnestly the need for attention that must be given to these organizations. I applaud all who are involved and ask that they feel free to involve me and my media outlets to help them, ilovemountains.org is a worthy cause I wish to help. The states of West Virginia and Kentucky and several other states are being destroyed by mountain top mining. The richest forest land in the United States is being systematically destroyed by coal company greed. They are devastating the environment to avoid using and paying minors in their mining operations in the poorest regions of the United States.
To do away with coal mining jobs in these areas coal companies are now blowing up mountain tops to access the coal causing untold environmental destruction as well as destroying the lives and livelihoods of all who live in these areas. According to ilovemountains.org, 450 mountain tops in West Virginia and Kentucky have been destroyed. Surrounding watershed areas, rivers and steams have been polluted, destroyed or diverted; which has caused immense suffering to thousands of animal species and hundreds of thousands of people. People who have lived for generations in these areas are seeing their lands flooded and polluted, rendering once fertile land unusable for animal or human habitation, and clean ground water and streams are made unusable for human or animal consumption.
When I discover something like this I am compelled to do something about it. Under the Bush Administration environmental issues have become a joke. The Bush EPA and Dept. of Interior are selling our national treasures to the lowest bidders with the highest campaign contributions. Congress is just as complicit in these acts of treason and corruption.
The areas being environmentally devastated are sparsely populated and poor. Appalachian mountain regions are the poorest regions in the country. Its people are the most poorly represented by their state, federal and local governments. Why have we heard no public complaints or protests from the many world famous Blue Grass and Country Western musicians; who hail this region of the U.S as their home and origin of their success and inspiration? Why are these states’ politicians doing nothing to prevent this environmental disaster? Why has the national media completely ignored this issue? Why is this region of the U.S only focused upon by the national media, when there is some major mining accident? Why is it that days after these accidents, nothing more is heard of or reported in the media about the miners, or about the far greater disasters facing the people from this region of the country. Could it be that coal and energy companies have total control over the local and national media? Could it be that the coal and energy companies have paid off all government officials to keep silent? Simply look at the impoverished history of this region, and the horrendous treatment of coal miners for the last one hundred years, then the answers to these questions become obvious.
I am embarrassed as a concerned citizen, that I knew so little about Mountain Top Mining or the suffering it has caused so many. I will try to continue to keep this urgent environmental issue and others in my articles and radio programs, to help these people and organizations as much and as often as I can. I hope my readers and listeners will consider helping these people as well.

According to the Mayan Calendar we are passing through the Ethics Period of Creation. We are experiencing the fifth day of this period within the cosmic time frame of the seven days of Mayan creation. We are merging into the Galactic Period or the time when humanity will meet it’s Galactic neighbors. The Ethics Period began in 1999 and will enter the Fifth night on 11/17/07. This year will be one of tremendous revelations of secret knowledge. Global conspiracies will be revealed . Numerous medical and technological breakthroughs will be announced. Governments and empires will begin to self destruct.
The Mayan Ethics Period, is a specific time in the evolution of Humanity; whereby human consciousness is becoming repulsed by all deceit and immoral behavior. Scandals and corruption, global tyranny and conspiracies are being revealed daily and will continue to be revealed. Cries for Justice are heard around the planet. Secret plans of long held planetary conspirators are being revealed as well as alien manipulations. Political corruption is exposed in every country. Within the next five years, by 2012; either the earth will be wiped out of existence by nuclear or other catastrophes, or win it’s eternal war with evil. We can survive by understanding and accepting our rapidly, evolving, ethical consciousness and allowing our intuition and integrity to lead us into the future.
The rate of time is advancing at a phenomenal rate of speed. This was understood in the Mayan Calendar as part of this period. Days are shortening by hours. Twenty days in 2007 is now the equivalent of one year in 1999. By 2008 one year will be equal to 20 years . The speed of our rapid evolution will cause millions to go insane. Conflicts will be delineated between madness and rationality. Tools and technology we use today will be obsolete within days and weeks. The earth’s magnetic poles are shifting and the earth’s atmosphere is heating up by this shift. Tsunamis and earth quakes, droughts, hurricanes and firestorms are regular occurrences around the planet. Drought and pestilence are killing billions of people in third world countries. Ethical clarity is paramount in this battle for the survival of this planet and the soul of Humanity.
Billions of people world wide are aware of these problems. They see them and hear about them. They themselves are experiencing them. They are involved in wars and genocides either as perpetrators or as victims. Situational ethics must not replace morality. It must not replace the conscience of mankind. Death , disease and hopelessness, must not be allowed to carry away the souls of Humanity. War and destruction , corruption and deceit, hate and vengeance, ignorance and fear, must be abolished . All dictatorships and tyranny will be destroyed. All methods of eugenics will become anathema to any future plans for the existence of humanity. The Mayan Calendar is an accurate instrument for the calculation of Creation. It has revealed the beginning of Earth and it reveals its end.
It tells us that Human dignity must be celebrated not ignored or debased. The glorification of materialism, barbarism, avarice and decadent displays of demented minds will no longer be accepted in the world. To survive the onslaught of our pending destruction we must hold the vision of ourselves in possession of a higher consciousness worthy of ascension into a new society, a new dimension of human and humane existence. This is what the Mayan Calendar states is the Universal Consciousness. The final stage of human creation.
The Universal Consciousness is that perfect achievement by Humanity that they are forever with the God Mind. The Creator. Upon our entry in this final period of evolution we become one with our creator as perfect creations. Connected to our Universe with full awareness of our purpose and place within creation. Self awareness will become all awareness as Humans will be lead by their Intuition and Integrity. All who fall short in either area will fall away from the advancement of Society and perish in the onslaught of a great sweeping sea change, that could annihilate most of the planet.
This was done in the Paleolithic period and again in the Ice Age, and will happen again. Humanity survived these catastrophic changes by adapting to more stable communities. Nomadic existences were too sensitive to massive geological and atmospheric changes. Permanent safe, shelter for defense and the production of stable sources of food became the necessities that changed humanity. Those who survived did so within the stages of the planetary life cycle and creation and adapted genetically to its natural environment. Millions of planets change either by burning up as a nova or by loosing their atmospheres, and all life on that planet is destroyed or must adapt to swift and radical changes. We are near that period now. If the 2012 date of human expiration is accurate, then we have only five years remaining . Perhaps even less time remains as we collectively become more affected by genocide, racial and religious wars, by imperial powers over free nations. Many notable psychics have predicted that, between 2008 and 2010 the world will enter into a final war. Ancient as well as modern seers have predicted more than fifty percent of the world population will be destroyed in the conflict. Ancient tablets have described the end times. Prophets have spoken of the end time. All has been predicted however, humanity can change its reality. Just as we change our individual realities daily we have the power and knowledge to change our collective reality instantly. A unified worldly vision of doom can and must be altered to a unified vision of hope and utopian splendor. Humanity has the capability and responsibility to create its own future. We can not rely on the doom and gloom prophets and sooth Sayers for our future outcome. We can only rely on our own sober and collective wisdom and inherent, eternal, hope for the future of our planet and our species.
“Their is nothing new under the sun.” I must argue that cliché. I have learned something very new to me ,and as time speeds up many more new scientific discoveries will amaze and confound the world in the next few years. I can only hope we do not destroy ourselves as the Altanteans did . Humanity must believe, that 2012 is the beginning of it’s ascension into Universal Consciousness, and not its dissention into oblivion.

Tonight George introduces Al Bielik to our show. Al was one of the survivors of the Philadelphia Experiment, a former naval engineer, who
claims that he was transported through time to the year 2795 and saw the future of the world.
“Hark ye, now man, this word I leave with thee. Use it and ye shall find power in its sound. Say ye the word “Zin -Uru” and power ye shall find. Yet must ye understand that man is Light and Light is of man.”
“Man is only what he believeth, a brother of darkness or a child of Light. Come through the Light my children. Walk in the pathway that leads to the Sun.”
“Hark ye now, and listen to the wisdom. Use thou the word I have given unto thee. Use it and surely thou shalt find power and wisdom and light to walk in the way. Seek thee and find the key I have given and ever shalt thou be a child of Light.”
Selected passages from, The Emerald Tablets of Thoth, Tablet X , The Key of Time.
I was politically seduced in 2000. That was the year I decided to film a documentary on the Nader LaDuke Campaign for President, from a personal perspective. Ralph Nader was giving a campaign speech in his home town of Winsted, Ct. which was the first of his speeches I recorded. I was surprised by the excitement at the event. A lady enthusiastically asked me if she could order a copy of the program. She felt that it would be a historic event her children and grandchildren should see. Ralph Nader spoke seriously and humbly to his town’s people. He named many in his speech and gave his thanks for their support of his Presidential Campaign. His mother, sister and niece sat in the front row. I had two camera angles set up to pan the crowd. My camera man had his camera focused directly on Nader. Joe was wearing a black leather jacket with an American Flag on the back and wore a pair of American Flag sneakers he was also a blue collar Republican. I did a single camera shot on Nader and the hand signer next to him, for the hearing impaired. It was a crazy shoot. It took several weeks to edit. I learned several important lessons by filming that documentary; partly because it was my first. Secondly because I had never been as enthused by a political campaign. I offered my services as a videographer to provide local access cable coverage of each event so they would be seen throughout the state of Connecticut. I didn’t get a chance to interview Nader due to time restraints. He slightly insulted me and my crew by telling me to watch the Charlie Rose show, that he was filming that afternoon in New York City . He was obviously infatuated and flustered by all the attention and his nephew, who was his handler was extremely rude. That was the only meeting I had with Ralph Nader until after the election, when no one wanted to talk to him.
Nader and LaDuke carried the flame of hope for a third party presidential candidacy. Now that I contemplate the idea I am still excited by the possibility, but I also know that it is virtually impossible to crash the private, two party, gluttonous banquet of power. Third Parties are always considered aggressive and belligerent beggars for power pounding at the front door of the U.S Capital building. It is less tiring for me to write and produce programs as I do to denounce and question the power gluttons. Unpaid and paid political work is mind consuming and extremely frustrating. Especially when your working for a political long shot. No serious gambler would have invested a dime in the Nader campaign, unless it was to knock out Gore. I learned the hard way that the system is definitely rigged. However I’ll always be grateful to Ralph Nader and Winona LaDuke, for attempting the impossible and giving hope to the politically hopeless.
I remember very well, the excitement that surrounded the Nader LaDuke Campaign in 2000. I filmed three of Ralph Nader’s speeches. Three unique locations, speeches and audiences. I sent the Nader campaign a copy of the program as my donation to the campaign to use in commercials or hand out with donations. I was never contacted by the Nader Campaign or given acknowledgment that they received the program. This arrogance bothered me but I believe it was more disorganization to blame. The Nader campaign was in chaos. No one thought Nader’s message would take off the way it did. Depending on poor and cheap lefties to fund and operate a presidential campaign was doomed to begin with. But this is always the fate of idealist, nonviolent, revolutions against a well funded and entrenched establishment. It is questionable what the real motives of Ralph Nader were. I have always been curious to know how many Republicans donated to the Nader Campaign. I like to believe Nader’s campaign was a noble cause. Nader never demanded a voter count in 2000. Many of the Nader votes around the country were not counted and evidence came forth that some Nader votes were counted as Gore votes in the hotly contested states. The war against the two party system hurt the Democrats greatly. Nader exposed the blatant hypocrisy of the establishment liberals. Losing the election and wounding the Democrats was worth it, to keep Lieberman further away than a heartbeat from the White House. Lieberman’s treason is well exposed now. No one but a few Connecticut Republican loyalists have any regard for Lieberman.
2000 was still a glorious time in U.S politics. We proved that the power of a populace movement can disrupt the complacency of the power elite. The Nader Campaign exposed the vulnerable underbelly of the Two Party Beast. It exposed the desperate lack of leadership in the Democratic Party. It proved to the American voter that the Democrats could not fight for and win the Presidency; even when they had already won. That election revealed to the world the fraudulent voting practices of the world’s foremost model of representative government. Is the U.S any better for it? Only history will tell if the U.S will recuperate from the Bush assault on the Constitution and the War with Iraq and Afghanistan. As a politically devirginated liberal, I hope for a brighter future, and continue to fight the best I can with the tools I have. I want to prevent the further erosion of the vision of an Ideal United States. I feel as an American that I must pass the vision on to future generations. It is the duty of parental and elderly Americans to keep the hope of our country in the hearts and minds of our children. They must be taught their own collective power and responsibility, and the priceless value of preserving their constitutional rights and freedoms. They must be able to understand; that their nation will call upon one of them to be the President of the United States.
In 2000 Nader, LaDuke exploded and by 2004 Winona was forgotten. Nader’s message was taken seriously for a while; until his Quixotic war with the Democrats, became his downfall.
There were so many Nader LaDuke supporters in 2000, that I proudly placed a NADER LADUKE bumper sticker on my 1987 red Toyota pickup truck. My red truck was street legal and had rusty chrome bumpers. It had just the right look and feel, for a NADER LADUKE supporter. The Nader LaDuke banner conveniently covered the worst rust spots on the chrome bumper of the L.A.Steel Mobile, political status symbol.
I’m much more sensible in 2007. I totaled the red pickup truck in 2001and have had two newer vehicles since. Neither of them were pickup trucks. I no longer have a secret hope, when I relate things to politics. The hung over rage at our elections and the 911 enemy, were two powerful unleashed distractions . In 2001 a generation was reminded of the ideals they should believe in. A generation was branded with the mark of Patriot or Traitor, as we were forced to looked upon our reflected image against the charred metal and crumbled stone, in the flames of the World Trade Center. We were deceived. America was deceived by it’s own complacency. It’s own indifference to those who govern the United States, and allow the main stream media’s complicity in the cover up.
We are the Nader LaDuke idealists. We the generation of the established anti establishment. An entire population of idealists lost their political virginity in 2000. We were raped by the Two Party Beast and demonized by the Conservative media. Liberalism became a curse word in America. Liberals were screamed at, abused, threatened and humiliated by 3000 conservative talk show hosts; who created a paper mache corpse of Liberalism, and carried it to the funeral pyre, burned it in effigy with carnival revelry; as they mocked liberal leaders and martyrs. The Bushites worshipped tyrannical deceit and corruption; that brought about their rule of war, bigotry and ignorance. Bushites blatantly support and display their own paper mache ruler, and promote him as a shining example of stupidity, and Republican rightwing virtues. Liberals must support Liberalism again, but we must be careful. We must identify our enemy. Bushism, fascism, socialism, communism, anarchism, neoconism, imperialism and corporatism as well as our own self interests, are our enemies. We must indelibly be aware of the true meaning of Liberalism, which is the belief that, Humanity is inherently good. The United States was founded on that trust. Liberalism must survive, to restore and preserve the Spirit and Integrity of The United States. Americans must believe that righteousness and justice for all are sacred and everlasting rights.
The problem I see with this sudden obsession with Barack Obama is he has become a convenient vehicle to release all liberal guilt, and to declare every Liberal’s respect for their Black brothers and sisters. Liberals are notoriously racist for proof look at the administrations of all past Democratic presidents. As much as I distain the Bush Administration personally, and it’s corrupt and malicious failed policies; there has never been so many Black Americans in prominent positions within the same administration in the United States.I have always wondered why G.W Bush appointed so many Black Americans to his cabinet and to the management of National Security.
I have seen racial violence personally and physically fought to defend myself and my friends against racists. A racial fight is the most evil form of battle. Most victims are defenseless. Most of the victims have done nothing to warrant attacks against them. Racism always leads to violence or physical and mental abuse. I have seen physical attacks against my friends. I have empathized with their anger and frustration, but I have never been able to feel what they feel. I have never been able to understand the hatred waged against them because of the color of their skin.
The white liberal obsession with Barack Obama’s presidential candidacy is more of a projection of sympathy towards Black Americans. It will be interesting to see what kind of real support Mr. Obama receives in the next six or eight months once the white liberals contend with more than one Black presidential candidate. Al Sharpton , or any other candidate will weaken Obama’s white liberal support. Barack Obama is a new face. He speaks to the white liberal audience as a black JFK.
I watched and listened to Barack Obama’s speech on CSPAN yesterday. There was nothing new. There was very little if anything that hasn’t been said by every Democratic candidate since FDR. The only difference was that it was said by Barack Obama. What amazed me as I watched the people in the audience standing in frigid weather was the absense of black supporters. The camera recorded black men in the crowd, and a few close-ups of several black women huddled in blankets shivering amongst a sea of white people with hoods and hats on. I always thought that the state of Illinois had a large black American population. Why were almost all in the audience white people ? Maybe it was because most black Americans have the good sense to stay inside, when outside it’s 10 degrees with a minus zero wind chill factor. Maybe it is because they do not feel as enthusiastic as white liberals do about Barack Obama’s candidacy. Maybe they know the system so well, they automatically become suspicious of Barack Obama’s sudden unexpected rise to national acclaim. Maybe ,collectively they know too well that Obama is just another Democratic shill. Maybe they remember how Obama deserted them in 2004; when he meekly declared the presidential elections had obvious irregularities, but he ignored his own people by declaring G.W Bush as the rightful winner knowing that over three million Democratic votes were not counted and the majority of them in Black districts . Perhaps Black Americans are wondering what kind of a leader Barack Obama is and why he is receiving such adulation from white Americans. I am not a Black American, but if I feel I must ask this question. If most Black Americans are not asking this question, they should be.
The history of Black Americans is a difficult history for a White American to look at and acknowledge. We as White Americans have not yet allowed ourselves to accept our own prejudices. Our predominantly white justice system has incarcerated one in three Black males in the United States. Our sacred Constitution never originally considered Black People as equal or as citizens. Our illustrious Congress has a long history of punishing and ignoring the Black American. Our corporate establishment still frowns upon Black employees and executives. Sadly even the Black Americans ignore their own people’s needs and businesses.
White American Liberals are not honest with Black Americans, nor are they honest with themselves. Wasn’t it Chicago that had so many white people oppose school busing? Wasn’t it a white man who killed Martin Luther King Jr.? Weren’t White people the majority of all who violently opposed the Civil Right’s Movement? Isn’t it White pundits and news casters who ridiculed Al Sharpton and Carol Mosley Braun in 2004? Aren’t these same members of the media now praising Barack Obama? I ask why? Why the sudden change? Who is behind the Obama candidacy and why? No one receives the attention Obama has unless the Shadow Government has approved of it. No one becomes President in the United States, unless the Shadow Government approves of him or her.
The White Liberal American is desperately trying to bring about the Second Coming of Kennedy. They have been for the last forty years. It will never happen. Kennedy was murdered because he wanted drastic changes made. He wanted to expose the corruption of the Shadow Government and end the reign of the Federal Reserve and end the war in Vietnam before it further escalated. These liberal ideals will never again see the light of day in American Politics. Barrack Obama is not JFK or RFK or MLK or even a qualified candidate. He is simply a made man, sponsored by the men who make made men; who are slyly manipulating the Sheeple of the Left to distract them from the Impeachment of G.W Bush, and the ongoing plutocracy and imperialistic corruption of the Bush Administration and the Congress.
The ruling white majority and white shadow government will never allow Barack Obama to be President, unless they are certain they completely control him. It looks to me like they do control him and always have. I think Black Americans understand this, but the remarkable symbol of a Black American President far outweighs all other concerns, and may cause both Black and White voters to elect Barack Obama.
AN EXPLANATION OF THE END TIME,2012 AND THE MAYAN CALENDAR
2/9/07
There is great fear and expectation in the world today of the coming of the End Time. The Mayan Calendar states no reference to an End Time. It states,there will be an end to time as we currently understand it.
The Mayan Calendar is a calendar of creation. It is a tool used to understand the stages of the earth and Mankind’s evolvement throughout the eons. It claims that by the year 2012 the consciousness of humanity will reach a level never before witnessed in human creation. A consciousness so profound that we will no longer be captives to our physical reality. We are speeding up in time. What took humanity billions of years to understand and develop into tools and the accumulation of knowledge is now amazingly at our figure tips. It now literally takes only moments to acquire knowledge, that once took centuries and millennia to accumulate and disseminate throughout the world.
The human mind has advanced to such a phenomenal degree from its prehistoric, tribal and cultural stages; that it can no longer be contained in the simple confines of ancient religions, rigid philosophies or empirical evidences. Humanity is accepting its vulnerability, as well as learning and creating new philosophies and sciences to offset its most destructive characteristics. The massiveness of all earthly creation must be compared to the rise and fall of the seas. All that effects the seas and creates climate and geological changes immediately effects human changes. All that survives understands these ebbs and flows of creation. All that becomes extinct fails to adapt to inevitable local and global environmental changes.
According to the Mayan Calendar the world has entered the Ethics Period and is rapidly merging with the Galactic Period. By November, 2007 we will have ended this period and evolved into a higher consciousness based not upon reason, but upon intuition. Humanity will have arrived with or without war and world destruction into a higher consciousness guided by intuition, and succeed only by societal and individual integrity. All led by greed, pettiness, anger and desire for wealth and power will become irrelevant to humanity, and will cease to exist in the new reality. All lies and deceit will be revealed and detested. All who exist by malicious intent will be cast away from society. The Mayan Calendar has marked February, 2012 as the final month of our physical consciousness. At that time we will no longer be captives of earthly consciousness. We will have evolved into a Universal Consciousness, whereby we become fully aware of all creation and our place and purpose within it.
Mankind has the capability of destroying the planet. With that capability also comes responsibility. Worldwide awareness of environmental pollution and global genocide brought on by wicked and ruthless governments, corporations and the direct intentions or apathy of all who live and work in them are being unmasked and condemned by those of ascending consciousness. The crimes of these institutions and people who are apart of them are being revealed, and their ruin is inevitable as Mankind evolves into Universal Consciousness.
The Mayan Calendar’s prediction is being fulfilled. As I am writing my thoughts on a computer people before me wrote theirs on paper and people before them carved or painted their thoughts on trees or stone. Survival for our predecessors was an instinctually individual concern evolving into a family, tribal and national concern. Now survival has become a global concern, even a galactic concern effecting our solar system and countless other unknown life forms. No one can separate himself from the global reality. Each individual has a completely unique point of view base on his or her personal experience. However, that experience is still connected to other shared experiences. Reality as we know it is a shared experience as our knowledge is primarily a shared knowledge. Our consciousness is also a shared consciousness, which has synergistically evolved over time.
I learned of the Mayan Calendar from several sources, who learned their information from other sources, who learned directly from the Mayans. The Mayans state they were told how to construct their calendar from God the creator of the universe. Shared knowledge today is instantaneous via print, television, radio , satellite and internet communications. Soon, according to the Mayans all information and all understanding will become intuitive, as Mankind evolves into its last stage of creation and embraces the Universal Mind. Our physical reality will become obsolete as will our physical necessities. All systems within this current physical reality will be useless to us. All power will be within the individual. A simple human thought will manifest into the immediate realization of one’s need or desire, to be used for the betterment of himself and the universal community. Evil intent can not exist in this new dimensional reality.
According to the Mayans the End Time is not to be feared, but to be looked forward to. It is to be celebrated as the end of human suffering. The end of war and the banishment of all evil in the universe. The Mayan End Time is stated as December 21, 2012. It will be the end of Mankind’s physical evolution and the beginning of our spiritual reunion with our creator. The greatest Mayan celebration is scheduled for December 22, 2012, when the world fully enters its new period of existence, The Age of Aquarius. The Mayans advise, that no one fear what is to occur; instead we must understand we are changing, and adapt to the change by relying on our intuition and integrity to guide us into the future.
A NON BINDING RESOLUTION IS THE POLITICALLY CORRECT DISCRIPTION OF A CONGRESSIONAL LAXATIVE.
2/7/07
I never thought I would agree with anything John McCain or Joe Lieberman ever said, or ever will say. Lately I referred to them, in a recent article, as the” Buttocks of the Senate.” Since the Democratic proposal for a non binding resolution against the Iraq War, I have reconsidered my position on certain statements I’ve made. John McCain and Joe Lieberman have stated publicly that a non binding resolution against the Iraq War was intellectually insulting . I happen to agree with them on this issue. To waste precious congressional time pushing for a non binding resolution is not only hypocritical, but also a cowardly indictment of the war and the Bush administration’s policies. If the Democrats in Congress want to stop the war they must stop the funding of the war. If the Democrats are so upset with George W. Bush then they should push for his impeachment. If the Democrats are so righteous in their indictments against the war and the Bush dictatorship; then why did they unanimously vote away their own powers? Why are they continually allowing the erosion of the constitutional powers of Congress, and the freedoms of the American people?
It staggers the imagination to think of how impotent this Congress is . Under the new leadership of Nancy Pelosi every trace of testosterone has been replaced by estrogen in the House of Representatives and the Senate , with the exception of Russ Feingold and Chris Dodd. Dodd and Feingold have proposed a bill to cut off all funding for the Iraq War. It seems that they have escaped the neutering knife for the time being. Dodd aligning with Feingold makes good political sense for Dodd’s presidential ambitions. He’s getting some attention at least by appealing to the more aggressive, liberal segment of the American voting public. I feel that I am a part of that aggressive liberal segment. I am a Connecticut resident and have never been impressed with Dodd’s record as senator . However courage and conviction, regardless of someone’s political affiliations are honorable virtues. In the fight for America’s liberal leadership, few elected officials have shown either courage or conviction in their characters. Opportunism better describes the character trait of most politicians with presidential ambitions.
I confess that I am a cynic. I have come to the self -realization of that fact. It would be virtually impossible for any talk show host and political essayist to be anything but a cynic; when they observe and research politics and news on a daily basis. A journalist or reporter, if affiliated with a major news network or paper, is censored and strictly guided as to their directions of reporting. As witnessed countless times much of the mainstream news is extremely selective and censored and in the case of The New York Times, completely fabricated. Everything stated by the mainstream media must be treated by listeners, readers and viewers, with extreme skepticism. (WARNING: This paragraph may be irrelevant to the article but I felt I had to keep it in.)
The conspiratorial element in any congressional, non binding resolution is apparent. The Democrats do not have a solution to the Iraq War, nor do the Republicans. They instead have devised an illusion of distraction. That illusion of concern and action is created to push forward an impotent protest of the War and the Bush administration. The Democratic non binding resolution, (illusion), is simply a non committal attempt to convince the American voters; that the Democrats are doing something to alleviate congressional constipation. They have failed dismally if they think the American public is believing their idiotic rhetoric. McCain and Lieberman have contributed greatly to the global pollution of idiotic, political, rhetoric during their careers, but recently they have accurately identified the Democratic scheme of a non binding resolution. As the official “Buttocks of the Senate” McCain and Lieberman have dutifully carried out their awarded tasks. Their many years of experience in the Senate have made them naturally sensitive, to any artificial stimulation of a senatorial bowel movement.
HAS ANYONE NOTICED THE NETWORK NEWS LATELY?
2/03/07
I have been browsing the networks for some relevant news recently and haven’t found any. I noticed the national network news programs have copied each other . Except for the anchor person the news is identical, and even commercials are identical and played at the exact same times. If you change the station to another news broadcast advertisers have insured themselves; that you are going to see the exact same ad you were trying to escape from by changing the channel.
I consider it frightening, that billions of dollars are spent by these news networks every year to create some semblance of real news reporting. For the last several years I have seen nothing on network news that was news. Since Katie’s arrival on CBS I have totally ignored that station. Even it’s regular programming is an insult to anyone’s intelligence.
As I read, watch and listen to numerous news sources, to find a few unique stories for my radio programs, I have discovered that network news has become completely irrelevant. All the network news programs have become carbon copies with different letterhead. The same lead stories someone reports from the front of the White House or Capital with the exact same news leaked to them from an anonymous White House, Congress or Pentagon source. Someone reports from war torn Iraq with the exact same embedded, and authorized news. There is nothing worth listening to. Everything is twisted into absolute pabulum and all the programs end with some human interest story about a paraplegic hero not denouncing Bush or the War, and always some happy monkey or affectionate carnivore du jour. The cable news programs are even less believable. CNN has the same news and ads as all the networks, except they keep playing the same thing over and over again for 24 hours. Ads for Viagra, Cyalis , Lipitor and men’s prostrate problems take up half of the program time. The drug companies must own the networks. MSNBC is NBC just a different anchor but the same reports. Every pundit on every station is an obnoxious buffoon. The more obnoxious they are the better their ratings are. As soon as a tornado or hurricane occurs in the U.S all we get for news is 24 hrs of the same pictures of destroyed houses and buildings. Pictures released from the Associated Press and a few interviews with toothless people. This is the total extent of American network news coverage. Has anyone heard about the 100,000 deaths in Indonesia due to a recent flood. I had to read about it on the internet. No mention on national network news.
I’m about to give up my cable subscription. I have come to the realization that anything worth listening to or watching is on the internet and some radio programs. Print media is worthless as well. All the major papers and magazines are owned by Rupert Murdock or affiliated with the major networks. All publishing houses and movie studios are owned by the networks as well. The only free source of information comes directly from the internet and even the internet is slowly being censored.
The New World Order is becoming obvious. Censorship and the fabrication of facts in news reporting is the most powerful weapon used by dictators. How long will it be before people like myself are silenced or censored? How much longer will free speech be allowed in the U.S? How much more nonsense will the American people accept from the television networks in place of real reporting of the national and international news? Network news is the most unreported crime in the nation. Every network television news program, including Sixty Minutes, Dateline, Nightline, and CNN Special Reports, are nothing more than distractions and entertainment for all of the macabre, pedophilic , sadistic, dieting , addicted, medically and mentally impaired, who honestly believe that network news programs are really giving them the news.
Several years ago I was browsing around a discount store and found a pile of graphic tee shirts on sale for a few dollars each. I went through the pile of X Large and found a shirt promoting a heavy metal band named DISTURBED. For some reason I was drawn to the design of the tee shirt, which had dark silkscreened images of the band members on it. I had never heard of the band, nor had anyone else. That was why the tee shirt was under a disheveled pile of other shirts selling at $3.00 each. The pile consisted mostly of promotional tee shirts of celebrities like BoBo the flying dog, young Britney Spears, unknown Rock, R&B and boy bands and defunct dot.com companies.
This particular DISTURBED tee shirt was far superior in design and quality and was a bargain regardless of who the band was. As I pick it up from the table I turned it around to look at the back. I read the following words printed in gold lower case letters, “madness is the gift.” The genius of this simple statement would have been enough for me to buy the shirt, but what cinched the sale was the gold line drawn through the words, “madness is the gift”. To this day I wear that shirt on special occasions, when I want to impress an uninspired maniac. I’m willing to bet that many of my readers are maniacs, I hope they are.
I don’t have a friend that I can think of that isn’t slightly tilted. I tend to gravitate towards unusual characters. Early in my life I had a friend who could stand on his head and eat a hot dog without throwing up. I had other friends who could juggle, invent strange and useless inventions, or draw and paint strange graffiti on public buildings. I was crazy about girls (and women) who could let their hair down on a dance floor, keep an honest beat to any music and insist on driving me home. I had friends who liked to public speak on town hall steps after doing a hit of acid. To this day they still make no sense, but are now respected politicians.
The point of this essay is to exemplify and congratulate everyone who has a large or small amount of madness in them. Madness is what makes them interesting. Madness is what makes them do things normal people don’t do; like run for President of the United States, or start up a company or a country on an insane idea. Getting together with other insane people and starting revolutions, or a new political party, or inventing a computer, or flying to the moon, or building a pyramid. I have always wondered what the friends and families of the first guys who invented physics and calculus thought about them. Imagine what the family and friends of Walt Disney must of thought; when he told them that his stick figure Mickey Mouse could create a multi billion dollar empire. Madness is the gift. Mediocrity is the curse. Anyone who doubts me just has to look around and see, that everything they now take for granted was first created in the mind of a madman.
Since his Obama “is fresh and clean”,statement Joe Biden has already lost a few more potential votes. Based on his record (see opensecrets.org) he’s got a good civil rights track record and votes for most minority issues as well as all the other Democratically correct issues. His biggest campaign donors are lawyers and law firms. He’s been in the Senate since 1972. There is really nothing in his record that says he’s outstanding, nor is there anything that condemns him to liberal voters.
So far he’s sitting on 3,300,000 million and change in his war chest. That isn’t very much considering he’ll need 100 million to compete with Hillary. With all of his normal senatorial similarities what makes Joe Biden presidential material? What makes anyone presidential material except for ambition? Joe Biden has a weakness for shooting off his mouth. He’s been overheard many times by press reporters and network microphones at different functions, peppering his listeners with vulgarities, off colored jokes and ethnically insensitive comments, but so has Hillary and many other notable senators , congressmen and presidents.
The problem with Joe Biden, as far as I can tell, is that he doesn’t know when to shut up, and he has a slight problem with plagiarizing British MP speeches. Maybe these are serious character flaws for a Presidential Candidate, but it hasn’t seemed to hurt him as a senator. His off colored, off camera remarks, have actually helped him stay in the public eye through out his career. He’s a darling of the mainstream media. He’s been on Meet The Press almost as often as Joe Lieberman and John McCain.
As another presidential candidate I hope Joe Biden can stay in the race at least through the primaries, before he shoots himself again by saying something stupid. I look forward to seeing him in the primary debates. He will add drama to an otherwise boring panel of candidates, as the nation waits to hear another Joe Biden Blooper.

JOHN MCCAIN AND JOE LIEBERMAN ARE AWARDED THE POSITIONS OF HONORARY BUTTOCKS OF THE SENATE.
1/7/07
The two most ridiculous members of the Senate have got to be John McCain and Joe Lieberman. These two mindless morons have got to be the most blindly ambitious and most bought off members of the Senate. Their support of the Iraq War and the NeoCon strategy of a new surge in troops, is proof of their complete idiocy. Recent polls have shown only 11% of Americans favor a surge of troops in Iraq. This is approximately the same number of mentally ill people institutionalized in prisons or mental facilities in the U.S.. It is also near the number of people in the U.S diagnosed with depression and bipolar disorder taking anti depression and anti psychotic medications.
If we analyze the careers of John McCain and Joe Lieberman the first thing we notice is their adoration of G.W. Bush. The second thing we see is their adoration of Zionist Israel, the third thing we see is their glaring stupidity. These two elected senators are the most unresponsive members of the senate towards their constituents. Their blatant arrogance and ignorance goes beyond any semblance of sanity. Anyone who can justify sending more American men and women into Iraq to be slaughtered, and to slaughter more Iraqis is not only insane, but criminally insane.
If anyone compares the record of these two men with the records of others in the Senate, they will immediately see their numerous shortcomings. I am not inferring that many other members of the Senate are without glaring faults. I am simply stating that John McCain and Joe Lieberman are at the very bottom of the senatorial barrel.
All people are naturally equipped to sit down on their buttocks. Buttocks consist of two fleshy mounds of fat and muscle tissue evolved to perfection over millions of years, to accommodate the human body to sit comfortably. The Senate is often referred to as a body of elected representatives , who are supposed to serve the American people. This body has a head which is the president of the Senate, currently occupied by Dick Cheney. The right and left arms of the Senate would be the Majority and Minority leaders, of the two political parties. Currently these positions are held by Bill Frist and Harry Reid. The torso or center body of the Senate would be all the senators and their staffs, and all who are involved with the day to day operations of the Senate. The two legs and feet of the Senate would be the Republican and Democratic senators. This leaves only the buttocks, which is designated to two uniquely qualified senators one from each political party. These positions are needed to maintain a bipartisan balance of power. Those who are chosen for these positions must be a proven senator of compromise, and one who has few if any convictions. Most business conducted by the Senate is done in a sit down position. These Honorary Buttocks are critical to the bodily function of the Senate.
The titles awarded to the two most deserving and qualified senators is known as the” Honorary Buttocks of the Senate.” These positions are quietly bestowed upon these two selected individuals by their fellow senators. The American people also select these individuals through their proxy, granted to the majority vote of the Senate.
The 2007 Senate and the American people have quietly and without fanfare recently selected the members of the Senate for these most sensitive positions. The positions of “Honorary Buttocks of the Senate” are now held by John McCain and Joe Lieberman. Both men have proven themselves most capable and were pleased and eager to accept the positions. George W. Bush has privately honored them recently, with an invitation to the White House. In a small ceremony he kissed both men and gave them firm handshakes. Bush stated during the ceremony,that he admired them for their firmness and openness.
I recently read an old biography on William Lloyd Garrison,which made me realize I am a Radical. Those who aren’t familiar with Garrison’s activism and his weekly newspaper “The Liberator” might think well of him as the Archangel of Abolition. Garrison was a radical, who in the 1830s up until the end of the Civil War was completely focused on the abolishment of slavery in America. Garrison was a man so obsessed with the injustice of slavery that he organized the first movement towards the abolishing of slavery. He spoke the harshest words of criticism of his time against the lies and hypocrisy of his society; that accepted, promoted and profited by trafficking the misery and slavery of human beings.
Slavery is obscene from today’s stand point nearly 200 years later. American Society has outgrown its overt economic institutions of slave owning,yet Americans insist on ignoring their own servitude, to a system owned and operated by a few elite masters. These masters are now disguised as captains of industry and political leaders with ideas veiled as progressive, conservative and independent, but all are elitist.
Perhaps the most frightening concept still held by the vast majority of half sleeping Americans is that they think they live in a democracy. They have never lived in a democracy. America was never designed as a democracy. It was designed as a republic. Modeled after Plato’s Republic, and government of the elite , by the elite and for the elite. Everyone else was not considered in the American Constitution. Only white, rich, men were created equal,not women,not men of color,not even white men without property. Slavery was an institution in America, that allowed the colonies to flourish economically. Ninety percent of our early economy was agricultural. Slavery made the masters rich, and kept the slaves poor. Poverty was not a social consideration in the early colonies many were poor, but it was better than being a slave.
Slavery still exists in American society. But this slavery is brought on ironically, by American greed. Greed fuels the U.S economy. Greed incites the American psyche to obsess over acquisition. How much more money can they get? How much more money can they spend? How much more land can we take, how many more countries must we invade for our oil and natural resources? If we don’t have enough money to buy what we want, the banks and government will insure that we do. The Federal Reserve Banks will lend the money to the U.S Government and the government will give the money away in corporate and social entitlements. International banks will commit unpunished crimes of usury at 20 and 30 percent interest rates on credit cards and adjustable rate loans on mortgages. This keeps Americans enslaved. Enslaved to a system that creates money without worth. Currency floated by the industry of the people; who strive only for more of the worthless money.
The word Radical according to Webster’s dictionary means,” Of or relating to the root. Also, one that is radical advocates a decided and often extreme change from existing, usual, or traditional views, habits, conditions, or methods.” I realize now, that I am worthy of the title of Radical. I am an advocate of extreme change from traditional views and accepted methods of the American society; that sells itself into slavery for the sake of a new car or more money, a bigger house, name brand running shoes. We are simply sharecroppers farming the land of the landowners. The masters. Favor from the masters is the granting of a greater section of their land for us to till, granting greater responsibility to the sharecropper to make the land owner more money so the sharecropper can buy his newer used car. This is American slavery, American elitism, American servitude. Even our sharecropping positions are now being given to illegal immigrants and workers in other countries because they cost the land owner less. They will be slaves for a fraction of what the American slave costs to maintain. The master doesn’t have to worry about health care or minimum wage increases. It is time the American worker be reminded who he or she really is, and does not have to be a slave to the masters.
A radical as I see it is simply someone who sees things as they are and tries to tell the truth. A radical is someone who is focused on social change for the betterment of mankind. A radical is someone who refuses to sit back and say nothing, while his society and country are falling apart. A radical is someone who is compelled to say something and let it be known with proof, that mankind is going the wrong way. William Lloyd Garrison was a radical, Mahatma Gandhi was a radical, any man or woman desiring fundamental changes in their life and society are radicals. Jesus was a radical. Muhammad was a radical. Moses was a radical. Buddha was a radical. I see nothing wrong with being a radical.
I have been called a radical for my views. I just never considered myself as one. My weekly radio show and television program have been focused on political and social issues and injustices. I have called all those in power hypocrites and liars, crooks and thieves more than once on my programs. I have not been taken off the air because everything I have stated on my programs have been correct. Every industry and every person and leader, I have attacked with accurate statements and facts. I have criticized only those people and issues that should be condemned. Genocide, Corruption, deceptions, Greed, war, ignorance, arrogance and insanity , of the Bush administration , Zionism, racism, any all injustices have been the topics and comments on my programs. I have presented facts that have not been contested. Evidences that have come to light have all proven my statements to be accurate. If that makes me a radical then I guess I am. I am also proud to be one.
