Cyclone's Real Deal

Cyclone's Real Deal

I'm having a fit today! Here is my rant for the day. Murph

MONEY, MONEY, MONEY

Oh Boy! How many of you have seen this bit of news? http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0925-35.htm and http://www.usatoday.com/money/2006-09-14-liberty-usat_x.htm

I sure hope you understand some of the ramifications of this. It means that the Feds are going to start clamping down on the few local communities that are using alternate methods of exchange besides the Fed's dollars. Now the question to be asked is; is this really illegal? And why are they even concerned with it? I would propose that it is not illegal and the reason they are concerned is that every Fed reserve dollar that is not used in exchange further threatens the stability of the dollar.

There are popping up all over the internet and even the popular media (if you read between the lines) indications that there is some panic going on in our government, that control is slipping and draconian measures must be taken to stop it. Notice from the commondreams link that the law regarding Habeas Corpus is up for being repealed, which gives Boosh and crew literally the ability to not have any accountability with how they deal with us on an individual basis, and for that matter as groups. Preparation for internment of troublesome individuals and groups on an indefinite basis and with no recourse? Posse Comitatus has been bypassed, allowing the use of the regular military to intervene in civilian events.

We caught an interview on “The Edge” hosted by Daniel Ott when he interviewed Al Cuppett. Cuppett is a retired Joint Chiefs of Staff, an inspector for the JCS, and worked for the Air Staff. There are 4 interviews with this man at this site. Here is the site address for the interviews if you are interested; http://www.theedgeam.com/guests/pastguest2.htm

In essence, Cuppett talked about his first hand and sometimes intimate relations with shadow governments and how they operate. He also had a lot to say about scriptural relationships that was of small interest to me.

To top it off, the congress is now considering the ways that they can insulate the current crop of despots in the white house from prosecution for war crimes and high misdemeanors, all of course reason for impeachment and perhaps even death penalty.

We have asked over and over again at this site and other commentators on the popular media and the internet, what does it take to get the American people up in arms over the events that have and are taking place? Just how much freedom will we lose before people become really upset about it? Will it be too late then? The attitude that I have run across is; I don't feel less free today than I did 5 years ago. For that matter, do you who are reading this? Does anyone but a small ineffective minority even care?

Unless this whole environment issue, and the whole peak oil issue, are con jobs on the public, we are sure going to find out pretty soon, whether we are ready or not, just what the tolerance in the western world is for bull shit, for deprivation, for experiencing what iron fisted theocratic ideologue control is really like, you know, what we read about taking place over there. Even if it is a con job, we are headed for this iron control anyway, just may take a bit longer, who knows. But we can say with a pretty high degree of certainty that it is coming unless drastic steps are taken to stop it.

These people, they like that control. I doubt it is even for money anymore at the highest levels. Cripes, after accumulating billions of dollars, just how much more do you need to buy the most ostentatious and extravagant life style that can be imagined. No! It is about the craving for power over events and peoples lives. At the lower levels of this hierarchy money may still be one of the objectives.

Here is one of my favorite speeches, done by Don Juan to the Devil in “Don Juan In Hell” by George B. Shaw after the devil chastises Don Juan for being uncivil to his minions.

“Pooh! Why should I be civil to them or to you? In this palace of lies, a truth or two will not hurt you. Your friends are all the dullest dogs I know. They are not beautiful; they are only decorated. They are not clean; they are only fashionably dressed. They are not educated; they are only college passmen. They are not religious; they are only pewrenters. They are not moral; they are only conventional. They are not virtuous; they are only cowardly. They are not even vicious; they are only frail. They are not artistic; only lascivious. They are not prosperous; they are only rich. They are not loyal; they are only servile. They are not dutiful; only sheepish; not public spirited, only patriotic; not courageous, only quarrelsome; not determined; only obstinate; not masterful; only domineering; not self-controlled; only obtuse; not self respecting; only vain; not kind, only sentimental; not intelligent, only opinionated; not progressive, only factious; not imaginative, only superstitious; not just, only vindictive; not generous, only propitiatory; not disciplined, only cowed; and not truthful at all—liars every one of them, to the very backbone of their souls.”

I had a good time producing this play a lot of years ago. I played the devil. The guy that did Don Juan was very handsome guy and could do a great French accent.

I hear way too many excuses for what these people in power are doing. We are not privy to their agenda, we get hints from paper trails, but we can only determine it from their actions, and boy do those actions shout from the rooftop. But any excusing them for the sheer breadth and viciousness of their actions under any guise of turning the other cheek, or for any other reason, is inexcusable to me. All the way from the top of the heap down to the neighborhood apologetic pundit they must be confronted, somehow. They must be stopped, somehow. We all can excuse the lesser sins on an individual basis. The preacher that goes to a prostitute, or has his daughter get an abortion, or the man on the street that swipes a candy bar from a store. There is one hell of a difference in degree and effect. There is no excuse for the excesses of the elite or the powerful under them. God may judge them in the hereafter but I judge them in the here and now, and feel no qualms about it. A hungry kid in New Orleans stealing food to eat is not the same as sending people to their death for an empty cause and a lie. There is no excuse for preying on the poor and disenfranchised to accumulate more wealth. There is no excuse for running a 'false flag' operation to con people into supporting greed and power structure.

Until the populace demand transparency and accountability, until they are willing to back it up, draw a line in the sand, the collusion, the lies and the manipulation will not end. Until the populace decides that there has been enough lies, the lies will continue. But then again, is the populace ready for truth? Is the populace ready to accept that money and position and privilege are not a sign of leadership nor of intelligence and integrating it into governance is not good for them? I guess we can answer those questions. Hmmm, time to duck and cover?
