The last time we let that happen it was World War 2 and they promptly sold us to the Germans. So, no thank you.
Where did you get the Catholic Church reference anyway?

First of all, do you directly vote your PM (which I suppose stands for "prime minister")? With us its usualy the president of the party that gets the highest percentage on the elections that gets the mandate to form a government coalition. Its not unprecedented that a government gets a non-confidence vote from the parliament later on, and a new candidate gets the mandate to form a new government without an election, just through vote in the parliament. So, is it like that with you guys too? (Quoting Message by WhiskeyWoman from Thursday, December 04, 2008 10:08:51 AM)

Strat ... this is for you. To clear up a bit of the unprecedented political B.S. that's going on up here.
Even though I didn't vote for Harper and his PC's, it is the democratic principle of the whole thing that matters more. We just had an election, and the people spoke! He was elected and now, what the hell?
We now have the three loser parties banding together to overthrow our democratically elected government. There's the NDP (Ontario union/auto-workers...), there's the Liberals (headed by a French, least popular leader they have ever had, even within his own party!), and then the BQ - the Bloc Quebecois (who, as HB said, always threaten to take their greedy ways someplace else but never seem to grow the balls to actually leave -- but who are quite content to take equalization payments & money from the West provinces for their "have-not" french province...)
As far as I'm concerned, they would do us a big financial favour if they separated. Don't let the door hit their arrogant, lazy french asses on the way out... About the only thing Quebec gives us is some runny maple syrup and the occasional Olympic athlete. IMHO...
(Now, my attitude usually sits on the back-burner about this BQ thing... but this is an example of what these three goons have done by forming this ridiculous coalition. They are ripping the country apart and dividing it once and for all. No unity here!)
It is outrageous and presumptous of those three to think they have our best interests at heart by tearing the country apart. (Did you see them on the news, signing the Coalition Agreement? The word, vultures, came to mind... and it's exactly what they looked like too...)
My guess is this: they may have a sneaky suspicion the PC's won't 'stimulate' the auto-industry (specifically), and the NDP being what it is with unions, have probably been under all kinds of pressure from the CAW to get help. Bullshit. The NDP wrecked BC with all that, which is why they can't get back in there...
Yeah, well those three couldn't stimulate the economy with their dicks.
Does this mean we have an untimely eco-tax thing imposed by that idiot freakin' Dion!? This country is going to be destroyed by that snivelling twit. One NDP from Manitoba said, "We will be working separately, but together." Yeah, that's got success written all over it. I can see this is *so* NOT going going to go well...!!!
And, to forge an alliance with the Bloc!? Quebec, who wants to separate, but still get their "have-not" cheques from Alberta!? Holy hell, I'm so pissed by all of this.
And, they wonder why people don't care to vote!? Because it makes not one iota of a difference, that's freakin' why. It's putting Canada into a coup, nothing short of a third-world country or banana republic. Disgusting, and embarrassing.
Now, to put this into better perspective.... If this coalition govt. overthrows our elected Prime Minister, Alberta's representation in the House of Commons (like your senate in the US), we go from 28 seats to 1. Yes, ONE! The richest province in Canada, who pays all of Quebec's and Ontario's bills, gets nothing -- well, except more bills...
 The word, "Revolution" comes to mind... with Ian banging that bass around ... If there is any wind of a protest, anywhere ... let me know. We are so "there", and I'm not usually prone to that kind of thing. But this is not something Canadians should let happen.
If it does, they can't let it go.
There is a saying here in Canada, that "Alberta could live without Canada, but Canada could not live without Alberta".
There is talk of the West separating (again), as so many people have had enough. To fully understand this, you must know that Harper is a PM from the West. For the first time, we have a PM from our part of the country, but these three stooges can't stand it and just have to take over power from the West, for the East. So, we are divided. Quebec, the East, the West, Pro-Coalition, Pro-Democracy ... and Canada is angry. Usually, that only happens when they lose their beer or hockey games, but nobody has ever seen anything quite like this, and I wonder how easy it will be for people to control their passion at these rallies.
 I have poster with that on it.... with 'SHAME' underneath, and a cool one with a Maple Leaf on a tombstone that says, simply "RIP". (Notice the emblem says "Central Canadian"? It does not include the west.) I have a feeling the protests are going to be very heated... especially when we show up with our Anti-Coaltion signs at the PRO-Coalition rally in red-neck central, Edmonton, tonight.

Even though I didn't vote for Harper and his PC's, it is the democratic principle of the whole thing that matters more. We just had an election, and the people spoke! He was elected and now, what the hell?
We now have the three loser parties banding together to overthrow our democratically elected government. There's the NDP (Ontario union/auto-workers...), there's the Liberals (headed by a French, least popular leader they have ever had, even within his own party!), and then the BQ - the Bloc Quebecois (who, as HB said, always threaten to take their greedy ways someplace else but never seem to grow the balls to actually leave -- but who are quite content to take equalization payments & money from the West provinces for their "have-not" french province...)
As far as I'm concerned, they would do us a big financial favour if they separated. Don't let the door hit their arrogant, lazy french asses on the way out... About the only thing Quebec gives us is some runny maple syrup and the occasional Olympic athlete. IMHO...
(Now, my attitude usually sits on the back-burner about this BQ thing... but this is an example of what these three goons have done by forming this ridiculous coalition. They are ripping the country apart and dividing it once and for all. No unity here!)
It is outrageous and presumptous of those three to think they have our best interests at heart by tearing the country apart. (Did you see them on the news, signing the Coalition Agreement? The word, vultures, came to mind... and it's exactly what they looked like too...)
My guess is this: they may have a sneaky suspicion the PC's won't 'stimulate' the auto-industry (specifically), and the NDP being what it is with unions, have probably been under all kinds of pressure from the CAW to get help. Bullshit. The NDP wrecked BC with all that, which is why they can't get back in there...
Yeah, well those three couldn't stimulate the economy with their dicks.
Does this mean we have an untimely eco-tax thing imposed by that idiot freakin' Dion!? This country is going to be destroyed by that snivelling twit. One NDP from Manitoba said, "We will be working separately, but together." Yeah, that's got success written all over it. I can see this is *so* NOT going going to go well...!!!
And, to forge an alliance with the Bloc!? Quebec, who wants to separate, but still get their "have-not" cheques from Alberta!? Holy hell, I'm so pissed by all of this.
And, they wonder why people don't care to vote!? Because it makes not one iota of a difference, that's freakin' why. It's putting Canada into a coup, nothing short of a third-world country or banana republic. Disgusting, and embarrassing.
Now, to put this into better perspective.... If this coalition govt. overthrows our elected Prime Minister, Alberta's representation in the House of Commons (like your senate in the US), we go from 28 seats to 1. Yes, ONE! The richest province in Canada, who pays all of Quebec's and Ontario's bills, gets nothing -- well, except more bills...
The word, "Revolution" comes to mind... with Ian banging that bass around ... If there is any wind of a protest, anywhere ... let me know. We are so "there", and I'm not usually prone to that kind of thing. But this is not something Canadians should let happen.
If it does, they can't let it go.
There is a saying here in Canada, that "Alberta could live without Canada, but Canada could not live without Alberta".
There is talk of the West separating (again), as so many people have had enough. To fully understand this, you must know that Harper is a PM from the West. For the first time, we have a PM from our part of the country, but these three stooges can't stand it and just have to take over power from the West, for the East. So, we are divided. Quebec, the East, the West, Pro-Coalition, Pro-Democracy ... and Canada is angry. Usually, that only happens when they lose their beer or hockey games, but nobody has ever seen anything quite like this, and I wonder how easy it will be for people to control their passion at these rallies.
I have poster with that on it.... with 'SHAME' underneath, and a cool one with a Maple Leaf on a tombstone that says, simply "RIP". (Notice the emblem says "Central Canadian"? It does not include the west.) I have a feeling the protests are going to be very heated... especially when we show up with our Anti-Coaltion signs at the PRO-Coalition rally in red-neck central, Edmonton, tonight.

from what i read, we are screwed. by law if harper asks for a postponement of parliment, the GG is obliged to ask another party to try to form govt. if he asks for an election, dito. if they lose a confidence vote, dito. so, unless a few members of the three parties vote with their brains and not their party, given that they all stand to gain personaly, god help us. we will have a party with its stated intention to break up canada in charge. briliant

Not to seem disparaging or self-centered, Kendall....but like a great many Americans, all I want is what I see as fair to me. And please, spare me the hocus pocus conspiracy theories. It's actually starting to become borish and redundant.

Why, anyone that has interests that have connection to the state. It can be a religious organization (like the Catholic Church) that wants more influence over the educational system or organs of repression and aims for a legislation that would allow it. It could be a weapons manufacturer that wants to make a bussines deal with the military that is under government control and resorts to bribery or personal contacts. It could be a lot of things.
The influence and power of politicians differs from country to country, from system to system, and of course it depends on the function of an individual politician. But the politicians do hold the power over legislature, budget and spendings, organs of repression, etc.

Who are the "highest bidder"(s)? And what would these "bidders" do with this influence and power? And what power and what influence so politicians have?
we're on a real roll now, into this increasing totalitarianistic society and we're hearing the terms used of ‘a world of service’. Obama had it, on his website in fact, one of his speeches, that's now been pulled, just prior to the Election. Bring in a 'world of service', a 'country of service'. The same terminology, in fact, he uses as the Cecil Rhodes Foundation for global governance and the Royal Institute of International Affairs, or the CFR, which are both the same thing. The “global citizenship” etc.
All of these terms came from the Royal Institute of International Affairs and they're on a roll now, to bring in this global society and most people think 'Well, what's wrong with that? We're all people, we're all decent people aren't we?' and we've had 40 years of indoctrination into multicultural agenda, to try not to make people really, as much accept multiculturalism, but to make them become less nationalistic, that was the real purpose of it. As I say, we're decent people, why not have this global society? Well, it's not going to be the kind of fairyland society that people imagine. In fact it could be a prison, your own country with its borders could be a prison because, you see, in the Brave New World scenario, according to Jacques Attali and other authors, who work now with the United Nations, the one who said that the next boat people leaving the American shores will be Americans, looking for work abroad, in his book Millennium. You find that they can keep you inside the border electronically, when we're all electronically-tagged.
The push is on now, for the chipped passport, for all Canadians and U.S. citizens, Mexicans and so on. Eventually, it will be extended all through the Americas, all Latin America, because they're all scheduled to come in to the system, in the same fashion that they brought in all the other countries into the E.U. (Economic Union of Europe). When it's time for them and they've had enough work done on them, and the same system has been introduced and accepted, then they bring them in. Long-term strategy, long-long-term strategy; and, I mentioned when this last farce of an economic bubble, not quite burst, it sort of bubbled a bit and floundered but really, they could have pulled that bubble one anytime they wished because the Stock Market has always been rigged, from its very inception. They could have kept the same con game going for another 50 years, if they wanted to; so, why did they do it now? Well, it's time you see, to bring in the new economic society, where money and the 'power of the purse' will be used to control every single person and make you behave and accept your new indoctrination of political correctness and, just like a computer program, every week, you'll have a new version of political correctness. The 'double think' that I mentioned last week, of George Orwell and the ability to hold two opposing opinions in your head, at the same time, and believe in both of them. The schizoid system that they're bring in ....
This is from Reuters UK News and how they're going to use this crisis, you see, to bring in their system; and, this is from November the 10th 2008:-
Brown says time to build global society
The Prime Minister of Britain, Mr. Brown, says:-
Time to build a global society. The international financial crisis has given world leaders a unique opportunity to create a truly global society, Prime Minister Gordon Brown will say, in a keynote policy speech on Monday
You understand these men are just front men, they read speeches written by professional script writers. There was even a scandal in Canada recently, where the Prime Minister had read a script and it came out in the mainstream media that they borrowed most of it from the Prime Minister of Australia, in one of his speeches. They're just front men you see. So, he will say this you see, I guess they hand it out to all the major newspaper companies, before he gives a speech.
In his annual speech at the Lord Mayor's Banquet, Brown who has spearheaded calls for the reform of international financial institutions will say Britain...
Will say huh!
... Britain, the United States and Europe are key to forging a new world order
Something they can say, without being conspiracy nuts; but if you mention it, you're a conspiracy nut.
“The alliance between Britain and the U.S. -- and more broadly between Europe and the U.S. -- can and must provide leadership, not in order to make the rules ourselves, but to lead the global effort to build a stronger and more just international order," an excerpt from the speech says.
Why not just print the speech up and they could save some bucks, he wouldn't have to go and attend this thing?
Brown and other leaders meet in Washington next weekend to discuss longer term solutions for dealing with economic issues following a series of coordinated moves on interest rates and to recapitalise banks in the wake of the financial crisis. Uniquely in this global age, it is now in our power to come together so that 2008 is remembered not just for the failure of a financial crash that engulfed the world but for the resilience and optimism, with which we faced the storm,
Oh, the poor script writer, you know, a 'B' grade movie one.
Brown will say in his speech on Monday evening "...And if we learn from our experience of turning unity of purpose into unity of action
Where have we heard these terms before?
we can together seize this moment of change in our world to create a truly global society. According to a summary of the speech released by his office, Brown will set out five great challenges the world faces
They always love 'Five', for the five points in Masonry.
These are terrorism and extremism and the need to reassert faith in democracy
They should invent democracy because we've never had it
He said "the global economy; climate change; conflict and mechanisms for rebuilding states after conflict;
This, after they go and flatten what's already there. You understand that war is a renovation job; do you understand that's what it is? When they blasted all of the infrastructure out of Afghanistan, their water supplies, the factories that made the baby food, they were flattened too, they claimed they were making chemicals there, until they found nothing but, well, powdered baby food. They flattened everything and they also demolished all the old oil refineries, they said they were obsolete, therefore it was better to bomb them from the air, using U.S. tax money, and they would rebuild new ones, for Halliburton and so on, which they've done. War is a renovation job. They did the same thing in Japan at the end of World War Two, flattened, burned out Tokyo and the big boys, the Halliburtons of their day get the big contracts to go in and rebuild them. Here he goes on here:
I'm "meeting goals on tackling poverty and disease
Well these are the guys, these are the guys who want to bring the population down, by using disease; and, as they say: 'well the poor will always be with us', and they make sure of that. They've got to have the poor, you see, because you can always get one half of the poor to kill the other half. That's what the military is all about, that's how it works this way, and they can always create class distinction and conflict when it suits them.
Brown will also identify five stages for tackling the economy, starting with recapitalising banks so they can resume lending to families
Ha ha
and businesses, and better international co-ordination of fiscal and monetary policy.
Then it goes on and on and on, this handout that they give about the speech, before anyone else actually gives the speech! It's quite a joke isn't it?

I am up for a good conspiracy theory the same as the next guy but, to me , this is just too much about generalizing. The paranoia here is so thick you can actually cut it!
Now, I may be an old man and I may be one of those that you claim is being "led" like a sheep to the slaughter but I simply cannot put "all" of anything into one, subversive group and call it by one name! FAR too Orwellian for me, guys. I don't know just how much of your "Big Brother" theory is true , Kendall but I do not even have ONE credit card. Not one! I do not believe in them as credit is the problem, not some spy network. Advertisers are trying to sell goods. Yes, they make credit easy to obtain. I agree. THAT is why we have the financial situation we do in this country! People buying things they cannot afford! I guess you could call that mind control but I do not see it as such. I call it stupidity.
Debt is the real problem in society. One cannot create wealth so long as one has debt. Advertisers sell us more debt. The public licks it up because, as you so eloquently said, it is easy. Getting more crap that you really do not need is the enemy. Creating mountains of debt that drain your wealth and mortgage your future AND your children's future is the real problem. The solution is not some kind of "revolt". The solution is simple; live within your means. |

HA! It does, doesn't it Darth?
You know, I do not mean to disparage the thoughts, ideas and beliefs of anyone. You are all entitled to your opinions. I simply do not go for those kind of theories. Doesn't mean that there is no validity to them. As I have mentioned often in the past, I have never really been the "benevolent" type. You will not see me at a "March of Dimes" rally or a GreenPeace convention. I just do not have it in me to be that philanthropic. Likewise, I do not have any desire to "change the world" and usurp the powers that be. I understand that there are elements in the world that go beyond simple politics. I realize there are a "select" few that seem to make more than their fair share of the decisions and have most of the cash. So be it. All I have ever wanted is my small piece of it.
The old "suffering of my fellow man" bit is just too much for me. I have said this often as well; it was happening LONG before I came along and will continue LONG after I am gone. World keeps spinning, my friends. I do what I can to take care of my own. I see to it that I get my "piece". May sound terribly self-serving because, honestly, it is. |

I totally agree! Remember the politicians are for the show to the public. And they themselves the politicians are chosen. It is a fact that I will go into later, that all those that seek these offices start on the psychiatric scale, if you will, of psychopathy. Also those that seat higher positions are ALL in masonry. No if and or buts about it. They all Serve orders of an agenda that does NOT serve the commons or as they like to say," the herd".
We're in 2008 and on a roll into the big totalitarian society, which is really all around us right now, but the velvet glove is off the iron fist and we're beginning to see it – at least those who are awake. So much catching up to do, especially when those who rule us are on such a roll as they are today, massively, massively so, every day. More laws across the world, same laws, because we're already global. We have been for a long, long time in fact and now they're going for the big kill, which is to make sure that everyone on the planet is predictable by having all data 24 hours a day on your every move. That includes what you eat. What you buy. Who you talk to. What you say. That's the totalitarian system that's meant to keep us safe from ourselves, because you see we the people are the enemy. That's the big joke. You see the joke's on us.
We the people are the enemy. We were declared the enemy a long time ago and if you even read the charter and the various charters of the subdivisions of the United Nations, you'll find it in there that the people themselves are the enemy. Look to the psychiatric and psychology associations. Look at the big players. Read what they've printed in their own big magazines and they've said it, that everyone who is alive today is mentally ill according to their documentation. Mentally ill means having opinions derived from previous societies, old-fashioned ideas, and following rules are old-fashioned rules meant for a different era and if you pass them on to your children you "contaminate" them. That's the language they use and you're all mentally ill and so you'll have to be reconditioned or eliminated. That's the real world.
Meanwhile everyone is playing themselves and playing massively so with all their free programs on the internet and giving all their data out to all the different little things that appear asking them very intimate questions to create complete profiles on them. They're doing it because it's free and it's so convenient, so convenient and they've never had a time when they can have so much free sex, for instance. It's so readily available anywhere you go. It has been for a long time and we're playing ourselves like never before, a world of children, while our betters, you know those people "up there," take care of the big problems including us ourselves.
We're the big problem because it's not intended that we go on playing for very long and use up what they call the world's resources, and sure enough, they've trained us you see to go out and work and reward ourselves at least once a month. That's not much, once a month. Most folk want to do it all the time with credit cards and they're constantly rewarding themselves for putting up with boring, depressing repetitive jobs and Pavlovian style, sure enough, they reward themselves with buying some trivia or junk or something that's supposed to satisfy a need and make you happy for five minutes before you become fed up with it and want to buy something else. That's what advertising is based on is creating dissatisfaction and they don't have far to go because all they sell you are lies in advertising. That's what advertising is about – selling you a complete fiction.
However, because we live in an unhappy society, a society which is stressful, a society that very few people understand in fact, everyone wants to fit into something that's really artificial. That's why they kind of feel on edge all the time. It's not a natural system. It's not meant to be natural in this system and those who run it have decided as I say we're using up too much of the world's resources by rewarding ourselves and they're going to cut back on us, you know the ones who are mentally ill, meaning the ordinary people.

| As I say, it's a shame, it's very sad when you realize that the world isn’t real as it's presented to us and that the game of politics (that's why they call it the game) of politics at the top. It's just a game for the public and how democratic can it be when you need millions of dollars for the supposed ordinary person to run and get in. The whole idea under democracy was that someone from your area, your little town or whatever, would go off and represent you. Well, when has that ever happened? Once they created the party system your politician would turn back to his constituents and say well I couldn't really go along – they wouldn't go along with it and I have to go along with my party.
Why do you bother voting for them if they have to go with their party and make little laws that affect you to your detriment? What's the point in voting for them?
See, the whole thing is a con, but they realized back in Britain, the home of this whole democratic business, and they learned it from their ancient records. The Greeks talked about it copiously how they go through these different systems of democracy and republicanism and fascism and so on, and the tyrant dictator and all the rest of it. It had all been tried out before and they knew how the game was played. Britain realized that if they didn't have a vote every few years then the public would have insurrections and so you wait for four or five years and suffer more misery and then you vote the last bunch of crooks out. That's how politics and democracy works. You don't really vote a new party in. You're so sick of the last bunch of crooks and yet you still haven't caught on. It’s not that they're just crooks. They all work for the one big institution, the World Corporation, and it's a supra-government that's above all national governments, always has been. These characters that you vote in are generally millionaires and most of them are lawyers who've dealt with real estate and big business and they've been CEOs of corporations.
What on earth do they have in common with you?
Nothing. That's the bottom line and Quigley said it. He said, "we always, we always make sure that the top people on all sides, all parties are theirs." It's like the politburo. Which politburo member are you going to vote for, A, B, C or D? That's the old Soviet Union. Here you just give them different names for parties, the left wing, right wing, but they don't tell you they're both attached to the body of the same bird. The real head of the bird, the real power behind it, is behind that shield there. You'll never see it and that's what it stands for.
However, you'd have insurrections every few years and Jefferson was quite right. He told us – they do tell us how the game is played. If you listen to the illumined ones carefully they'll tell you how it's played. He said when you see an agenda, an agenda going forth between exchanges of houses (meaning the different parties getting voted in and out) the same agenda being carried forward you will know you're under tyranny. That's your symptom and you look at all the UN laws they put out and sign into the books every year and then the global treaties they sign every year in every country all joining us all together closer and closer with the same multinational and international corporations at the top, then you see this agenda rolling forward regardless of the change of parties in a Parliament building or a Congressional Hall. It doesn't matter.
The same agenda steamrolls and I've been watching this for a very long time. We're dealing with most people who still live in the belief of the world that they've swallowed as it has been presented to them. It's a con game, a con game and as I say a few people like Quigley have told us so and they worked for the ones who really run the world; and Quigley was all for this global elite, by the way. He thought it was a swell idea and that the elite and intelligentsia had the right to rule the world on behalf of the dull and ignorant beneath them, the profane as they call them. |

Given the circumstances.....is the fact that a Negro now holds the highest office in your country such a big deal? 50 years ago, definetely. 20-25 years ago, absolutely. 10 yeras ago, perhaps. But now? The world is becoming more pluralised in so many different ways. Once race, one government, one religion, one people. Maybe John Lennon was right?

Thanks Freeze!!! I just think it's really time for people to see through this huge scam of control. and the control is from those that NO one in the public even consider.
The future is here and things are happening and things are sliding rather quickly, and the last ones to really want to know it are those who are living through it. They look for leaders, look for people who will be their champions. The feudal system gave the common people champions because they used to have jousts – that's where justice comes from, joust, it's on a court. A court, a big lawn where they'd ride their horses at each other with lances and battle axes and swords in front of the king or the queen for an afternoon's sport. A commoner was not allowed to fight on that field because you were a commoner. You were unclean. If there was enough of a grievance for the commoners, they could ask a knight (the holy elevated knights) to fight for them to be a champion for them and that's where the idea of politics came from. They would give the public people to vote for, who would go off and champion for them and that's how we've been conned all down this path in politics.
They always make sure that certain factions are given the particular champion, without telling you the rest of the story; and the fact is the whole system in politics and bureaucracies is so interwoven now that no one party could ever unravel it unless they threw it all out and started again. This was even stated in Canada by a Premiere, that's like a governor of Ontario, Bob Rae, who at the end of his tenure stated that we have so interwoven all the laws that we've made it would take years for lawyers and bureaucrats to unravel them and alter them. That's what's happened in federal governments too, because they've been interweaving them in preparation for a world state since before World War II. Therefore, no one party could possibly go in and change it; and apart from that, Professor Carroll Quigley(insane proud official historian of the CFR, and author of"Tradgey and Hope") told us they always have the leaders of the parties in their pocket. They train them. The vet them and allow them to run and however you're inclined by habit or nature, they have a champion for you who will say all the rights things but go along with the system once he's in it because the system is totalitarian in structure. The bureaucracies know the agenda more so than politicians. All the lower politicians are allowed simply to compete for higher brownie points amongst each other, opposing parties, but the guys at the top in all parties belong to the same group. Any man who tried to change it would be 'Kennedied' very quickly and that's just the way it is. So if people believe this Obama person has real say and is anything more than a sock puppet then they are literally in the Dark. The Agenda goes on....as for U.S. "policy" that the last administration represented is simply being continued. This is ALL the agenda of the elite foundations that rule the globe. All published and proven.

They knew that they'd have to give the populace an idea that they were somehow running things or had a hand in things by creating this thing called democracy. A democracy is what they call a "feint" in boxing. It's a con. It's not really there. It's an illusion but it tricks the public into believing they have some kind of rights and that they're involved in the way that the future is going to end up, because if they didn't give the public this particular system they knew that there'd be revolutions every few years, so they give you elections every few years instead. In democracies, no one votes in the new guys because they like them. They vote the old guys out because they've had time to see how corrupt they are and you live in hope, so you vote in the new champion who always end up doing the same thing as the last champion. Something that some people never ever wake up to their whole lives long. I've heard people in their 80's when they send vans around to pick them up to go and vote telling you that they've always voted. Yeah, they're the first to complain how bad things are getting and when you try and ask them "haven't you noticed that regardless of what party, what person you vote for, over the last 80 years an agenda is going forward and it seems to be getting worse?" They'll agree with you but then they go back in that double-think they still have to vote. They just can't quite catch on – too far gone.
Thomas Jefferson talked about that because the whole concept of democracy was not new to the Founding Fathers of the U.S. These characters had great educations and they studied and read. They read the Greek Classics and they read the histories of the world. They knew how the systems had worked and how tyrants ruled under the guise of benevolent dictators. They knew what democracy was supposed to end up with, because Plato when through all the systems including democracy, which ends up in a form of socialism, which always ends up in dictatorship. It's all been done before.
Ancient China, if you go into their histories, had done all of these. Republicanism, they tried that. They tried democracy. They tried fascism thousands of years ago, all well documented, all experimented with. The Founding Fathers of the U.S., Thomas Jefferson said "when you see an agenda carrying onwards between the different changes in Congress (meaning the different parties who get in and out), when you see a single agenda obviously carrying through from one to the other," he says, "you know you're under tyranny." What we've had since the League of Nations is this amazing step by step into the United Nations program to bring about a totalitarian world governmental system, where even in the 1800's Karl Marx talked about the unification of Europe and unification of the Americas that would come and then the Far Eastern and Pacific Rim unification. The three trading blocks which would have a form – they'd be demoted to a form of local government, a provincial government, so your federal government becomes a provincial government under a supergovernment, a world government, written all that time ago and most people today live in ignorance of all of that. It's been taken out of the school books for them and they have no inclination, most people, to go and find out; because, after all, today is not too bad, is it? Today will always be here. Tomorrow will be the same as today for ever and ever; and that's infantile thinking. That's how they're trained.
They do believe that their betters, those people on television, those famous faces will tell them all they have to know for their own good and all of those people who come out of the special wombs and run the world, you know the superior types, will just do everything for them and deal with all their heavy and weighty problems of the world. That's socialism. That's infantile thinking. That's what it was designed to do. Most people do not think through problems. They adopt their customs, their religion, the changes in the system and the religion through a form of osmosis. They don't think it through. If everyone else is going off in a direction, they will go in that direction too without question and will think they're quite normal because everyone else is going there too.

What's happening across the world to other countries in this perpetual war, physical war too that we've seen going on. We've had 50 years of war on the Latin American countries. All quiet wars kept from the public in the North and over in Europe, but people schooled in the School of the Americas, they changed their name but they're still operating. We don't mind other people being killed as long as it's not us. |

Something that some people never ever wake up to their whole lives long. I've heard people in their 80's when they send vans around to pick them up to go and vote telling you that they've always voted. Yeah, they're the first to complain how bad things are getting and when you try and ask them "haven't you noticed that regardless of what party, what person you vote for, over the last 80 years an agenda is going forward and it seems to be getting worse?" They'll agree with you but then they go back in that double-think they still have to vote. They just can't quite catch on – too far gone.
Thomas Jefferson talked about that because the whole concept of democracy was not new to the Founding Fathers of the U.S. These characters had great educations and they studied and read. They read the Greek Classics and they read the histories of the world. They knew how the systems had worked and how tyrants ruled under the guise of benevolent dictators. They knew what democracy was supposed to end up with, because Plato when through all the systems including democracy, which ends up in a form of socialism, which always ends up in dictatorship. It's all been done before.
Ancient China, if you go into their histories, had done all of these. Republicanism, they tried that. They tried democracy. They tried fascism thousands of years ago, all well documented, all experimented with. The Founding Fathers of the U.S., Thomas Jefferson said "when you see an agenda carrying onwards between the different changes in Congress (meaning the different parties who get in and out), when you see a single agenda obviously carrying through from one to the other," he says, "you know you're under tyranny." What we've had since the League of Nations is this amazing step by step into the United Nations program to bring about a totalitarian world governmental system, where even in the 1800's Karl Marx talked about the unification of Europe and unification of the Americas that would come and then the Far Eastern and Pacific Rim unification. The three trading blocks which would have a form – they'd be demoted to a form of local government, a provincial government, so your federal government becomes a provincial government under a supergovernment, a world government, written all that time ago and most people today live in ignorance of all of that. It's been taken out of the school books for them and they have no inclination, most people, to go and find out; because, after all, today is not too bad, is it? Today will always be here. Tomorrow will be the same as today for ever and ever; and that's infantile thinking. That's how they're trained.
They do believe that their betters, those people on television, those famous faces will tell them all they have to know for their own good and all of those people who come out of the special wombs and run the world, you know the superior types, will just do everything for them and deal with all their heavy and weighty problems of the world. That's socialism. That's infantile thinking. That's what it was designed to do. Most people do not think through problems.

Deep "The New Dealer" Freeze!!!??? Hahahaha!!! Thank you for the warm welcome, dude!
How are you, man? As for me: I could be better. I still have a hard time to accept that Barack Hussein Obama is our next president. Ah well, there's nothing I can do about it and I don't want a server ban, so I will keep my rants to myself.
I'll catch you later.

Well, we will see, because Russia is technicaly still a democracy. But I dont doubt that if Putin comes back that he will be re-elected.
In any case, Medvedjev, Putin = Nationalist douchebags. Whichever one is in the Kremlin is bad.

I realize there will be wide and varied opinon regarding the result of this election. You all know where I stand and I make no bones about it. Having said this, I also realize that this Thread is for discussion. It was created to inspire debate. Darryn fully intended to challenge us as thinking individuals, not just "Metal-heads". Sometimes we rant here, sometimes we muse. Sometimes we argue, sometimes we agree. But this room always gives me something to ponder when I am done.
I feel this morning alot like I did when Clinton was first elected. I am disappointed, surely. I am not angry. I am a bit sad and I am certainly concerned but not angry. The real problem this morning is, the new president has not done anything to warrant debate yet! All we are able to do now is offer conjecture. What might happen. I guess that is a reason to chat but I do not see much debate in it at this point.
I will not rail against the other party. I do not believe that will be constructive and I am not a poor loser. More importantly, I do NOT knock the captain of the team on which I play. I may not have voted for him, but you will never hear me make nasty comments about the US President while he is in office. I did not do it to Carter nor Clinton and Iwon't do it now. I do not see that as productive and certainly not wise. We as a country should always stand as one. That is something the "other side" has never learned.
As for why I am sad, there is a very good reason. John McCain is an American hero. A real-live hero. He was captured by the enemy, tortured. Refused to be a tool for propaganda (Right, Jane??) and endured hell for love of this great nation. And what did this country do? They turned their collective backs on him and picked a "rock star". So be it. As I have said over and over the last year or two, this is what happens when we have a voting public that looks to the likes of someone that calls himself "P Diddy" or "Snoop" for their direction. This is NOT Obama's fault, this is the fault of allowing idiots and children to vote.
