American Royalty, beware! Look to England to see the future…

Bessie’s little boy Charlie was attacked in his car. Or so the headline says. By English students who had just had their tuitions raised, and their grants lowered, while Bonnie Prince(ss) Charlie got his allowance raised. Unlike some, I believe his lifelong Major Crime spree outweighs the number of times he opened the back door in the back seat. That’s beside the point. Sheets, mon, his alleged sexual escapades are TAME compared to those of his family. But that’s what gets the most reporting.
But this attack wasn’t aimed at his arse.
Not specifically at least. More like his family being a large swarm of leeches.
Seems people are noticing, and taking action against, the fact that a small minority of people gets the great majority of the income. If ten percent are getting more money than the rest of the people combined, then it jolly well makes their argument that “Entitlements to the poor” are what’s causing the economy to implode downright laughable.
Let’s try the root word and the historic basis for “entitlement”. Titles like Duke, Count, Viscount, Baron, Earl, King, Prince, Sir, Knight, Madame, Dame.

Nominate Julian Assange for a Nobel? Time Person of the Year? No, jail him.

I Am Just Sick. Julian Assange arrested, denied bail, confined to a UK jail cell deemed unsuitable for Bush, Blair or their murderous peers. Britain even assured Israel that its war criminals could visit England without fear of politically motivated arrest warrants. So much for the Assange-is-Mossad rumor. Arrested for what? Publishing evidence of governments conspiring against their peoples’ interests, in their own words? Really, what’s next for our pretense of Democracy?

Wikileaks reveals inventory of US possessions critical to corporations

To complain that a wikileaked list of off-US-soil “critical infrastructure and key resources” provides a checklist of targets for aspiring terrorists is to pretend that opponents of the US empire are as simple minded as American television viewers. The importance of most of the so-called Critical Foreign Dependencies is self-evident, more curious is how the US deems these proprietary interests, to what extent it will protect them, and for whom. Sole manufacturers of vaccines might be vital to public health, but what of communications cables, international ports, supplies of industrial metals and suppliers of components to US weapons systems? Those are critical only to bottom lines. The 2008 report in the State Department cable leaked yesterday reveals infrastructure critical to multinational corporations, whether US or not.

message from a Hopi elder

You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour. Now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered…
 
Where are you living?
 
What are you doing?
 
What are your relationships?
 
Are you in right relation?
 
Where is your water?
 
Know your garden.
 
It is time to speak your Truth.
 
Create your community.
 
Be good to each other.
 
And do not look outside yourself for the leader.

FOX convicts murdered prisoner, posthumously.

The Military Police thug who killed him, isn’t contesting the charge that he killed the Human Being, and is instead pleading insanity.
“He was off his meds” well, that’s wonderful, the MilPigs put psychotic cops in charge over helpless prisoners.
FOX 21 is saying “the Ft Carson soldier ACCUSED OF killing an accusedTaliban Member in a jail cell in Afghanistan”.
Typical Right Wing Racist CRAP, the PIG already admitted murdering the victim but the PIG, unlike his vicim gets full “Due Process” from FOX.
Nat that it’s any different from their usual “fair and balanced” slanted so far to the Radical Right that it’s completely unhinged lynch-law hate speech and of course they’re trying to get such execution without trial or even charges to be the Law of the Land, but that’s irrelevant, or so I’ve been told.


When will INTERPOL investigate cyber attacks on Wikileaks? aka 88.80.13.160

Wikileaks has been deprived its DNS service by everydns.net, but you can still reach the site by going to their direct IP, 88.80.13.160. Pass it on. Here is a full list of Wikileaks websites and mirrors. The US War on Freedom is on, and Wikileaks reminds us, we are the troops.

Remember Fred Thompson and his Little Red Pickup?

The one that he had somebody deliver to a short driving distance from his rallies, so he could pretend to be “jes plain folks”?
He’s doing Bankster Commercials. Yep. Working for an investment group, who are hawking a “reverse mortgage”. While being a Republican and therefore supporting their loud cries for the Government to cut off any loan guarantees, he smoothly lies to the people and says it’s a Government Backed Guarantee. What a hypocrite.
Fits right in. If I had any doubts of whether the now-privatized program is unsound, that settled the doubt.
Why it sounded fishy before, first, it’s not really backed by any actual cash. And it was always administered through the private investment bankers. Like AIG who had to be bailed out because they’re just such wonderful stewards of other peoples money.
Then there’s the idea that while their customers are walking over the grass, and the grass ain’t walkin’ over them, they can’t be evicted. The ones whose Social Security and Health Care are on the chopping block, in a charge led by… the banksters and their new spokesfreak.
Gentle Readers, if you’re already invested in this, whenever the Banker comes around to visit, don’t eat or drink any gifts he brings.


Army “Revolutionary” XM25 weapon will revolutionize US people killing

The $35,000 rifle fires exploding ordnance, enabling US infantrymen to kill people behind walls or at distances of 2,300 ft. No indication that our soldiers can now SEE behind walls, or differentiate between combatants and noncombatants at such great distance. Meaning the XM25 will “revolutionize” killing, as military spokesmen say, probably the same innocents we’re massacring now, but an order of higher magnitude. If the same braggarts had a hand in naming the XM25, it means times (X) a magnitude (M) of 25, which I’ll bet is an arbitrary underestimation, where Collateral Damage approaches 100%. And get this, the Army assure us that the XM25 can be fired from the safety of distance and from cover, both of which the XM25 deprives of our adversary. “Revolutionary” pretends to reference the spirit of America’s only defensible war for our independence, but it really means another leap in the arms race, use of disproportional power, further distorting our inhuman arm’s length from war conventions, eliminating “cover” for our victims, but not for our own fighters because our opponents could never afford such a weapon. The DoD’s own words.

Need another reason to boycott 900 lb bully Amazon? Censoring Wikileaks

Amazon booted Wikileaks from its cloud server service, at the behest of Zionist warmonger Joe Lieberman. Twittered Wikileaks in response:
“If Amazon are so uncomfortable with the first amendment, they should get out of the business of selling books.” The corporate media is already censoring “Cablegate” with misdirection, describing the leaked diplomatic cables as indelicate embarrassments, as opposed to incriminating revelations of America’s imperialist anti-democratic outrages. The Interpol has declared an international manhunt of the Wikileaks founder based on scurrilous accusations of sexual misconduct, Canada is calling for Julian Assange’s execution via US drone, our politicians want to prosecute the Australian Assange under the draconian 1917 US Espionage Act. Amazon’s cowardly deed today is a reminder of the private sector’s omniscient control over everyone’s access to information. Imagine a world where whistleblowers are denied whistles. Shopping bags only please. On Amazon’s internet no one can hear you scream.

Dems pass Monsanto anti real food act

The corporate US House of Lords, aka Senate, passed Big Agra’s “Food Safety and Modernization Act” which aims to further impede the natural agriculture resurgence while shielding the real sources of food contamination, factory animal farms. Count BOTH Colorado Dems among the corrupt legislators who I guess pretend they don’t know better. Yes, Senator Mark Udall and newly entrenched incumbent Michael Bennet. Here’s the full list of DP-led Monsanto/ADM shills, courtesy of Natural News.

Costa Rica, Iraq and the TSA maybe not in that order

Although I did notice that I put their names in alphabetic order. Just a coincidence. TSA says “Big Brother is always right, STFU you silly peasants”, Costa Rica declares environmentalism “Terror Plot”, and the U.S. Military police are apparently running at least one concentration camp in Iraq where they’re incarcerating, without any charge, even children. But they have “movie night”. Probably Reagan and John Wayne movies, and the True Lies propaganda flicks.The Denver Post and C.S. Gagzette published a sidebar about how the “Totalitarian State Apparati” weighed the faked-up safety concerns against public outcry against their Big Brother attitude. Let the Mercenary Goons grope and leer at the passengers, treat us like we’re stupid for objecting and then tell us, through the press, how they believe we’re stupid and plan to literally molest even more passengers, not only on Airplanes but even at the Greyhound and Amtrak terminals.
And use full body X-ray scanners even though they’re radioactive.And cause or at least trigger and aggravate tumors. Terrorists don’t have to launch a Radioactive Waste “dirty bomb” on us, our “protectors” already did it for them. Much like they pay an uncounted, by us at least, amount of money having people stationed at reservoirs across the nation to make sure some al Qa’eda infiltrators don’t sneek a couple of pounds of ricin into the water. Last time I pulled metal out of Fountain creek, I got like ten car batteries. Lead Sulfate. And that was just in a quarter mile stretch. The Trinity River is called “the river of death” because all the refineries from Dallas, Ft Worth and on down the line to where it vomits out into the bayous which are the breeding grounds for most of the commercial fishing in the Gulf of Mexico, spew their waste into it.
Back to Fountain Creek, the place where Fountain creek picks up most of the bacteria and algae that make it stink? That’s from the north end of town, the Air Force Academy and Monument, Fountain Creek itself is sterile and for a really bad reason.

a poem for the holidays

The Art of Disappearing
 
When they say, “Don’t I know you?”
Say “no”.
When they invite you to the party
Remember what parties are like
Before answering.
Someone telling you in a loud voice
They once wrote a poem.
Greasy sausage balls on a paper plate.
Then reply.
