New Thread

This aint comin from no prophet Just an ordinary man
When I close my eyes I see The way this world shall be
When we all walk hand in hand

When the last child cries for a crust of bread
When the last man dies for just words that he said
When there's shelter over the poorest head
We shall be free

When the last thing we notice is the color of skin
And the first thing we look for is the beauty within
When the skies and the oceans are clean again
Then we shall be free
We shall be free
We shall be free
Stand straight, walk proud
'Cause we shall be free

When we're free to love anyone we choose
When this worlds big enough for all different views
When we all can worship from our own kind of pew
Then we shall be free
We shall be free
We shall be free
Have a little faith
Hold out
'Cause we shall be free

And when money talks for the very last time
And nobody walks a step behind
When there's only one race and thats mankind
Then we shall be free
We shall be free
We shall be free
Stand straight, walk proud,
have a little faith, hold out
We shall be free

Just wanted to get up a new thread the old one was getting full. There is a Full Moon coming on the 22nd and people get passionate, intense and verbal leading into every Full Moon, this thread always fills up fast on that energy and this one is the "bang' first Full Moon after the Summer Solstice on the 21st. I will have a new article out on the Solstice over the weekend.

Jo said that Daily Kos had an article about the Black Caucus was saving democracy. How ironic, the black race built this democracy, we owe them so much.

Wonderful lyrics Sally... thank you for sharing.

The Black Commentator has wonderful series of articles this week... http://blackcommentator.org/

This if OT, but wanted to info y'all of a program you might not know about... my daughter had her very long hair cut last night... and donated a 10" pony tail to 'Locks of Love' --- hair is used to make wigs for patients w/ Cancer undergoing chemo... youngest grand thinks she is copying his 'Mohawk' --- but thinks she's a very giving person anyway. So, if the summer heat is leading to shedding your locks, be sure they are saved. You can contribute any amount, doesn't have to be 10 inches.

Which brings some other ideas to mind. There are summer camps in our County that provide meals for children whose parents can't afford them. These camps can use old toys your children or grands have outgrown. There may be some in your area. And nursing homes... if you have flowers falling off their bushes in your gardens, these seniors would appreciate them. We took buckets of gardenias this past week... our bushes are over flowing.

And Sally reminded us a thread or two back, to visualize these guys out of office... I plan to work on that, this waxing of the moon...

US planes drop 220kg bombs in Iraq operation

18.06.05 1.00pm
By Luke Baker

BAGHDAD - US F-16 fighter planes dropped a series of 220kg bombs on insurgent targets in western Iraq overnight as the US military launched a heavy offensive against rebels near the Syrian border.

Nine of the powerful bombs were dropped, the US military said, two of them targeting suspected rebel safe houses near the town of Qaim, an insurgent stronghold on the Euphrates river about 20km east of Iraq's border with Syria.

Four more were aimed at rebels as they fired mortars and assault rifles at US ground forces near Qaim, and a further three were used to hit suspected weapons caches in the area.

U.S. targets suicide attackers

Aircraft, tanks and ground troops have been pressed into battle along the Syrian border.
Associated Preszs 2005-06-18 01:26:30

BAGHDAD -- U.S. fighter jets carried out air strikes as hundreds of U.S. marines backed by tanks battled insurgents in an assault yesterday on a dusty frontier town near the Syrian border, the third major campaign in seven weeks to dislodge militants using the western desert region to sneak foreign suicide attackers into Iraq.

Four such attacks around Iraq, including one in the capital, killed four people as insurgents seeking to lead Iraq into a sectarian conflict intensified the pace and scope of suicide missions targeting Iraq's burgeoning but still weak security forces.

Paper trail mounts
More documents call march to war into question

WASHINGTON - Highly classified documents leaked in Britain appear to provide new evidence that President Bush and his national security team decided to invade Iraq much earlier than they have acknowledged and marched to war without dwelling on the potential perils.

The half-dozen memos and option papers, written by top aides to British Prime Minister Tony Blair, buttress previous on-the-record accounts that portray Bush and his advisers as predisposed to oust Saddam Hussein when they took office - and determined to do it at all costs after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Blair is Bush's closest global partner, and the documents, startlingly frank at times, were never meant to become public.

Now they have rocketed around the Internet and been seized on by opponents of the Iraq war as evidence that the president and his administration were not leveling with the American people about their war preparations.

By mid-March 2002, a year before the invasion of Iraq, top British officials were already so resigned to a war that they seemed preoccupied mostly with building international support and finding a legal justification.

That was just six weeks after Bush declared Iraq a member of the "axis of evil."

Bolton vote set for Monday.

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist set a vote for Monday to try to break a filibuster on President Bush's nominee to be ambassador to the United Nations, announcing yesterday that Republicans and Democrats have had "constructive" talks to end the impasse.
But Democrats said they are as united against approving the nomination of John R. Bolton as ever, making a second failed vote likely. --Washington Times

Bloggers' 'Victory' Over Iraq war Memos

War debate grows louder

With public support dropping, Congress begins to question strategy

BY RON HUTCHESON
Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — Two years after the Iraq invasion, America seems to be losing its stomach for war.

With polls finding support for the Iraq war at a record low, members of Congress are becoming increasingly vocal about their desire for an exit strategy. On Thursday, 41 House Democrats formed a new "Out of Iraq" caucus.

Separately, four lawmakers — two Democrats and two Republicans — introduced a resolution calling for withdrawal starting in October 2006. It doesn't specify an end-point for a complete withdrawal, but it bucks the Bush administration line all the same.

Its sponsors include Rep. Walter Jones, R-N.C., a conservative whose district includes the Marine Corps' Camp Lejeune. He's hardly a stereotypical dove. In the early days of the war, Jones' anger over French opposition prompted him to propose replacing french fries with "freedom fries" on the menu in Capitol dining rooms.

The following comes from Anti-war.com... I recommend you go to the link and read the article in full, the last portion is presented here. Justin has fully documented this piece with links to affirm his statements. He is correct in calling this war TREASON imho... and the fascists are moving us into an expanded version of their TREASON. and I would recommend an article at Liberal Street Fighter which lays out a litany of reasons to support the premise that we are in the Middle East, in Iraq in particular, to destabilize it. I'm the messenger --- but in this instance I will stay that both articles have the ring of "truth" for me....

~ship~

Nervous about the home front, the Brits wanted assurances that the Americans wouldn't go barging in there like cowboys: the public had to be softened up first. Wolfowitz agreed, but Meyer noted that he had a "slightly different" focus from other administration figures. While Condi and Cheney were conjuring lurid images of nuclear fireballs blossoming over American cities, Wolfowitz was basically in favor of doing a repeat of the Clintonian strategy during the run-up to war with Serbia. You'll remember that the Serbians were said to have murdered 100,000 – or maybe 50,000 – or maybe 10,000 Kosovars. It was never quite clear. It's the old Belgian-babies-on-bayonets scam: dangle a few atrocities in front of peoples' eyes and soon you'll have them screaming for blood. "A lot of work" had been done on this during the reign of Bush I, said Wolfowitz. Meyer added: "Wolfowitz thought that this would go a long way to destroying any notion of moral equivalence between Iraq and Israel."

There is something awfully peculiar about the above quoted sentence, and that is the way it ends. The reader expects to hear the word "America," or "the allies," but instead we come face to face with the chief subject of Wolfowitz's concern: Israel, whose interests frame and define the Wolfowitzian view of the region. Israel was and is the great unadmitted factor in all this. As far as Wolfowitz is concerned, the reason we went to war was not to seize and defang Saddam's nonexistent "weapons of mass destruction," nor to sever his nonexistent links to al-Qaeda, but to secure Israel's interests in the region. That's why we're in Iraq today, and why we may be in Syria, Lebanon, and/or Iran tomorrow.

Michael Kinsley and a few minor imitators are telling us that all of this is nothing new – that is, the part about the lack of evidence for WMD, the skepticism of the Brits, the complete lack of confidence in the case the administration was making at the time. So what else is new? If we think of the process by which the memos have come to generate headlines, however, we have to look at it as a learning process on the part of the public. If it took several dozen repetitions to get them to believe a lie, then it may take that many – and more – to show them the truth. And not just the truth about how they were lied to, either. Tim Cavanaugh may be right that they stopped caring about that a long time ago. However, when they find out who lied us into war, and why – when they discover that American girls and boys are dying and being horribly wounded in order to make life a little bit easier for the Israeli state, and specifically for Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, I wonder if they'll begin to get a little hot under the collar. Particularly as our Justice Department rounds up a coven of Israeli spies in the Pentagon, and charges Israel's Washington lobbyists with espionage.

Yes, a good deal of this is "old news" – but the Israeli connection is new. And if, as there's ample reason to believe, it can be shown that the Israelis fed us (via Chalabi and the Office of Special Plans) a stream of lies to rationalize a war to save their asses, the growing scandal that they were stealing our secrets blind and selling weapons to China all along may well provide the tipping point in the public's attitude toward the war – and toward our "special relationship" with Israel.

The key, once again, is focusing, not on the lies themselves – most of us can repeat them in our sleep – but on who told them and the crimes they committed in the telling. When the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence looked into the intelligence-gathering that preceded the war, the Office of Special Plans and other obscure neocon-controlled governmental bodies were declared "off limits" to the first phase of the investigation – and then "Phase II" was indefinitely postponed.

Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.), co-chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, needs to get off his butt and get moving: If a foreign nation, namely Israel, was involved in an effort to lie us into war by feeding us false "intelligence" – and planting such intelligence via its agents in the U.S. government – then the American people have a right to know.

As I said on the eve of the invasion: "this war is treason." Once we find ourselves on the path to finding out that this is literally true, then I won't feel vindicated. Only sick to my stomach – and mad as hell.

Intentional Devastation of Iraq

http://liberalstreetfighter.com/ee/index.php?/trifecta/comments/6_intentional_devastation_of_iraq/

Posted by: Jo on June 18, 2005 05:30 PM

Letter written by Congressman Conyers to Washington Post in responde to Dana Millbanks gross and disgusting article the other day. Beautifully written!

Dear Sirs:

I write to express my profound disappointment with Dana Milbank's June 17 report, "Democrats Play House to Rally Against the War," which purports to describe a Democratic hearing I chaired in the Capitol yesterday. In sum, the piece cherry-picks some facts, manufactures others out of whole cloth, and does a disservice to some 30 members of Congress who persevered under difficult circumstances, not of our own making, to examine a very serious subject: whether the American people were deliberately misled in the lead up to war. The fact that this was the Post's only coverage of this event makes the journalistic shortcomings in this piece even more egregious.

In an inaccurate piece of reporting that typifies the article, Milbank implies that one of the obstacles the Members in the meeting have is that "only one" member has mentioned the Downing Street Minutes on the floor of either the House or Senate. This is not only incorrect but misleading. In fact, just yesterday, the Senate Democratic Leader, Harry Reid, mentioned it on the Senate floor. Senator Boxer talked at some length about it at the recent confirmation hearing for the Ambassador to Iraq. The House Democratic Leader, Nancy Pelosi, recently signed on to my letter, along with 121 other Democrats asking for answers about the memo. This information is not difficult to find either. For example, the Reid speech was the subject of an AP wire service report posted on the Washington Post website with the headline "Democrats Cite Downing Street Memo in Bolton Fight". Other similar mistakes, mischaracterizations and cheap shots are littered throughout the article.

The article begins with an especially mean and nasty tone, claiming that House Democrats "pretended" a small conference was the Judiciary Committee hearing room and deriding the decor of the room. Milbank fails to share with his readers one essential fact: the reason the hearing was held in that room, an important piece of context. Despite the fact that a number of other suitable rooms were available in the Capitol and House office buildings, Republicans declined my request for each and every one of them. Milbank could have written about the perseverance of many of my colleagues in the face of such adverse circumstances, but declined to do so. Milbank also ignores the critical fact picked up by the AP, CNN and other newsletters that at the very moment the hearing was scheduled to begin, the Republican Leadership scheduled an almost unprecedented number of 11 consecutive floor votes, making it next to impossible for most Members to participate in the first hour and one half of the hearing.

In what can only be described as a deliberate effort to discredit the entire hearing, Milbank quotes one of the witnesses as making an anti-semitic assertion and further describes anti-semitic literature that was being handed out in the overflow room for the event. First, let me be clear: I consider myself to be friend and supporter of Israel and there were a number of other staunchly pro-Israel members who were in attendance at the hearing. I do not agree with, support, or condone any comments asserting Israeli control over U.S. policy, and I find any allegation that Israel is trying to dominate the world or had anything to do with the September 11 tragedy disgusting and offensive.

That said, to give such emphasis to 100 seconds of a 3 hour and five minute hearing that included the powerful and sad testimony (hardly mentioned by Milbank) of a woman who lost her son in the Iraq war and now feels lied to as a result of the Downing Street Minutes, is incredibly misleading. Many, many different pamphlets were being passed out at the overflow room, including pamphlets about getting out of the Iraq war and anti-Central American Free Trade Agreement, and it is puzzling why Milbank saw fit to only mention the one he did.

In a typically derisive and uninformed passage, Milbank makes much of other lawmakers calling me "Mr. Chairman" and says I liked it so much that I used "chairmanly phrases." Milbank may not know that I was the Chairman of the House Government Operations Committee from 1988 to 1994. By protocol and tradition in the House, once you have been a Chairman you are always referred to as such. Thus, there was nothing unusual about my being referred to as Mr. Chairman.

To administer his coup-de-grace, Milbank literally makes up another cheap shot that I "was having so much fun that [I] ignored aides' entreaties to end the session." This did not occur. None of my aides offered entreaties to end the session and I have no idea where Milbank gets that information. The hearing certainly ran longer than expected, but that was because so many Members of Congress persevered under very difficult circumstances to attend, and I thought - given that - the least I could do was allow them to say their piece. That is called courtesy, not "fun."

By the way, the "Downing Street Memo" is actually the minutes of a British cabinet meeting. In the meeting, British officials - having just met with their American counterparts - describe their discussions with such counterparts. I mention this because that basic piece of context, a simple description of the memo, is found nowhere in Milbank's article.

The fact that I and my fellow Democrats had to stuff a hearing into a room the size of a large closet to hold a hearing on an important issue shouldn't make us the object of ridicule. In my opinion, the ridicule should be placed in two places: first, at the feet of Republicans who are so afraid to discuss ideas and facts that they try to sabotage our efforts to do so; and second, on Dana Milbank and the Washington Post, who do not feel the need to give serious coverage on a serious hearing about a serious matter-whether more than 1700 Americans have died because of a deliberate lie. Milbank may disagree, but the Post certainly owed its readers some coverage of that viewpoint.

Sincerely,

John Conyers, Jr.

First Round of Iran's Presidential Elections Inconclusive
Turnout Stronger than Expected

The Presidential elections in Iran produced a messy result that will require a run-off between the two top candidates. The final outcome won't be clear until Saturday afternoon at least, but it seems that former president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani will be one of the two.

Turnout was about 60 percent, better than expected. That is slightly bigger than the turnout in Iraq's recent elections.

The problem for voters seeking genuine change is that the hardline clerics have found ways to blunt progressive movements. It remains to be seen if a new president will be able to outmaneuver them. The Iranian public appears to be voting for candidates with strong personalities who might be able to accomplish something nevertheless

Saturn In Leo
© 2000 Curtis Manwaring
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

According to medieval authors, Saturn is in detriment in this sign. This means that aquarian principles like cooperation, humanitarianism and compromise are not well supported here. Dictatorial attitudes and selfishness may result. Saturn represents the principle of agnoia; and here the lack of knowing is with respect to the will, character, identity and self expression. It shows those who don't quite know how to express themselves, and suffer from a lack of spontaniety, self esteem and creativity. Sometimes they are reserved as a result. This can lead to self doubt and lack of confidence, but this is a double edged sword and in some cases it identifies those who aspire to a high office by creating a need for recognition. In the latter case Saturn inhibits feedback to the native about their performance. This usually takes the form of others trying to stand in the way of the natives best efforts. The result is that they try even harder than most to make an impression and some really succeed in distinguishing themselves. Notable examples of this are Adolf Hitler, Bill Clinton, and Al Gore. Bill Clinton didn't have an issue with self expression because of the reception from the Sun in Leo and a very powerful Venus in Libra rising. Gore is said to come acoss as "stiff and wooden". Hitler simply defined himself as the state of Germany ignoring the conflict between Saturnian issues and individuality. [8a]

In a diurnal chart, the heat diminishes the malefic qualities of Saturn. This individual has a clearer sense of identity and purpose because the agnoia is lessened. In some cases they aspire to political office and they generally make good executives. Leadership ability is present, but they often suffer from great opposition. This opposition usually takes the form of others pointing out character flaws and accusing the native of a lack of integrity. In this case, the native must learn the lesson of humility.

In a nocturnal chart, the cool and moist of night exasperate the problem of self unknowing because there is less distinction between things alike and unlike the self. There may be an issue of understanding personal boundaries, and they are likely to lack confidence and self esteem. There is usually a distrust of authority, and a few successfully bring down the leadership.

Jo, your post further up regarding the deliberate destruction of Iraq was profound and hits home as truth and it feels as if we are in the beginning phases of the same thing here in the US. Remember, Iraq had a slow destruction to this point. There is a passage in the Bible (Revelations I think) that says in the end days the gates of hell would be opened with evil pouring out. It sure feels like that is what we are seeing.

A MESSAGE OF HOPE FROM THE HOPI NATION

To my fellow swimmers,

There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that
there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the
shore. They will feel that they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly.
Know that the river has it's destination.
The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of
the river, keep our eyes open and our heads above the water. And I say,
"See who is in there with you and celebrate! At this time in history we
are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves. For the moment
that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.

The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves!
Banish the word "struggle" from your vocabulary.
All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.

WE ARE THE ONES WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR.

Thank you Sharon for posting the link to Switchwords. I wonder, would you mind telling me the word for fear? I have a Mac and the Mac download only has up to page 23 of the free pages. I wrote Nirav (?) about this and he sent me back a very nice letter saying they were working to accomodate that, but until then to ask people who have the full list of words if I needed words. I would have asked him at the time if I had thought of it but didn't and don't want to bother him again. Thanks.

Thanks for the post on Saturn in Leo, wv. I find it particularly interesting since my Natal Saturn is at 23 Leo, meaning that my Saturn Return is coming up in late 2006 to 2007.

Acutally, I don't seem to have much problem at all with cooperation, humanitarianism and compromise. Wasn't always quite that way, but my progressed Moon crossed my natal and progressed Pluto in Libra about 5 years ago, pretty much ate me alive emotionally. But boy did that Pluto-Moon conjunction leave me a changed and more mature man! It could be that maybe I've come to realize the energy of my Natal Sun in Taurus in the very Aquarian Eleventh House, and that of my Natal Moon in Capricorn in the Libran Seventh House, so my life and emotional energy tends to be directed towards people, humanitarian-oriented ideas and causes and partnerships/relationships. Nice way to compensate, it seems. By the way, Bill Clinton also has his Natal Sun in the Eleventh House.

I definitely recognize the issues with self-expression part, however. Saturn does happen to be sitting in my Natal Third House. I've been told by several people that my writing is very eloquent and structured, but what they probably don't realize that getting to the end result is always for me, a long, drawn out process of trying to get things just right! I hated writing 10 and 20 page papers back in College when I knew I could have covered all of the same points without the long-drawn out discussion, within just 2 or 3 paragraphs.

This attack on MY Senator Durbin is NOT GOOD for my blood pressure, but I'll tell ya what I KNOW: Bush is going down, there is no doubt in my mind. In 1991, when the Bushies took on Iraq & Saddam, my first husband left me with my 5 & 7 yr. old babies for his sect'y. We divorced in July '92. Thirteen years of b.s. struggling later, I am finally taking the b****** back to court to pay me all the child support I was ripped off & pay for the kid's college. Yep, he's gonna be hurtin', the sect'y-wife is gonna be p*****, and I am going to get justice. I have been biding my time, and watching the parallels between how the Repubs. have built up their power, and even though it may seem crazy to anybody else, over the last years, I could directly compare my life with what was going on in this country. Saturn into Leo is going to be wonderful, especially with my natalSun at 7, Uranus at 24, and nnode at 27. Yep, I better go get my blood pressure doctored so I can celebrate when this all goes down. AHHHHHH, that's better. This place is cyber- heaven on earth, hope you all are doing great. Pat, sending good thoughts your way for & about your son.

Raj et al,

Do you all know about Astrodeinst's 'extended horoscope' page with the listing of over 12,000 names of asteroids? The asteroids are great for pin pointing karmas and for TIMING!

The asteroid Jackson 2193 was transiting at 24 Taurus on 6/13/05. I guess it would help to have a natal chart or an horary chart to figure that asteroid's house placement and transits.
Good Luck.

For those who like to play with charts Asteroid Washingtonia 886 or Busch 7121 can be added into the equation when interpreting.

M., the free 43 pages don't get as far as "fear." Page 43 begins a list of switchwords starting with "a" and goes into a few words that begin with "b." They have the switchword for anger and agression, but don't go as far as fear. If you do write Nirav again, let us know what it is. At the same time "BE" is used for health and peace, and TOGETHER is the masterword used for everything, as far as I understand it, so you could try using those. I'm going to experiment with some of the free switchwords before I order the book. Let me know if you want me to copy the list on page 43 here.

This was posted on Salon in response to me. I want to share it here.

My words:
"States are saying they don't want paper they will have to store."

Response:
"People across the political spectrum believe secret vote counting is Un-American. Unfortunately, they do not understand -- yet -- that the tabulation of votes on DREs constitutes secret vote counting. We must do what we can to change that. "Paper trail" or "auditable" or "verified paper ballot" are not the memes we need. Secret Vote Counting is the phrase that should be on everyone’s lips.

Not only is secret vote counting Un-American, a strong case can be made that it is Unlawful.

From http://www.njstatelib.org/LDB/Library_Law/lwopnmtg.php
The Legislature finds and declares that the right of the public to be present at all meetings of public bodies, and to witness in full detail all phases of the deliberation, policy formulation, and decision making of public bodies, is vital to the enhancement and proper functioning of the democratic process; that secrecy in public affairs undermines the faith of the public in government and the public's effectiveness in fulfilling its role in a democratic society...
From Guide to the New Jersey Open Public Meetings Act:
Public body” means a commission, authority, board, council, committee or any other group of two or more persons organized under the laws of this state, and collectively empowered as a voting body to perform a public governmental function affecting the rights, duties, obligations, privileges, benefits, or other legal relations of any person, or collective authorized to spend public funds including the legislature …
The electorate is the ultimate public body. Our elections are a fundamental decision making processes. Although the question has not yet been litigated, it can certainly be argued that under the open meetings acts in most states, the process by which an accurate count of our ballots is obtained must be an open process that the average citizen can witness, understand, and have confidence in.

DREs clearly do not meet these requirements.

If your state has an Open Meeting law, do whatever you can to get a lawsuit off the ground that is akin to Lehto and Well v. Sequoia and Snohomish County. (Know any lawyers? Advocacy groups with a legal team? Call them!)

When the DREs are declared unlawful, election officials will just have to contend with storing paper."


"The power to judge of the legality of the [elecotral] votes is a necessary consequent of the power to count. The existence of this power is of absolute necessity to the preservation of the Government." --18 Cong. Rec. 30 (1886)

Hit by friendly fire
With his polls down, Bush takes flak on Iraq from a host of critics--including some in his own party

Nebraska Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel is angry. He's upset about the more than 1,700 U.S. soldiers killed and nearly 13,000 wounded in Iraq. He's also aggravated by the continued string of sunny assessments from the Bush administration, such as Vice President Dick Cheney's recent remark that the insurgency is in its "last throes." "Things aren't getting better; they're getting worse. The White House is completely disconnected from reality," Hagel tells U.S. News. "It's like they're just making it up as they go along. The reality is that we're losing in Iraq."

Juan Cole has update on Iranian elections...

Bush Helps Hardliners
Neoconservative Ahmadinejad in Lead

The Iranian voting public put a hardliner and a conservative pragmatist into a run-off election with their ballots on Friday. With a turnout of 62 percent or more, voters rejected reformist youth calls for a boycott and some said they meant their vote to be a slap in the face of US President George W. Bush. In the lead is Mahmud Ahmadinejad, the former mayor of Tehran and a hardliner close to the Islamist vigilantes ("Basij") of the grass roots Khomeinist movement. Coming in close second is former president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, a conservative pragmatist who dealt with the Americans during the Reagan-era Iran-Contra scandal. They will face each other in a run-off next Friday.

The Tide has turned!-Uplifting sign of the country waking up

6 comment(s).
I went to go hit a bucket of golf balls today. (Beautiful day, 85 and sunny). The place I go to is inhabited by crusty old men who scratch a lot and talk s#$% all day long. This is their retirement. I know this place to be pretty conservative so I just go to hit a bucket and not chew the fat.
Today I’m walking in to get my bucket and I hear one dude telling another in his heavy southern drawl "did you see the thing on C-SPAN with this COnyers feller?" That’s all I needed. I spent the next 45 minutes telling them about the petition, the work that’s been going on for weeks, and so on. They had a lot of questions and I was able to fill in some gaps in their information. There were other people listening and chiming in. Out of the 6 or 7 people there NOT ONE defended Bushit. Not one. Even guys who by looking at them you know are Republicans were piling on. They didn’t know how much Halliburton has stolen, as an example of information that they still don’t have. When I started to walk away and start hitting golf balls...

...Here it comes.....

The guy I originally started talking to says "I think there’s gonna be an impeachment".!!! EVERYONE ELSE WAS NODDING THEIR HEADS IN AGREEMENT.

I was floored...and then I was giddy...then I nailed 80 out of 90 golf swings.

Official Had Aide Send Data to White House
By STEPHEN LABATON

WASHINGTON, June 17 - E-mail messages obtained by investigators at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting show that its chairman, Kenneth Y. Tomlinson, extensively consulted a White House official shortly before she joined the corporation about creating an ombudsman's office to monitor the balance and objectivity of public television and radio programs.

Mr. Tomlinson said in an interview three months ago that he did not think he had instructed a subordinate to send material on the ombudsman project to Mary C. Andrews at her White House office in her final days as director of global communications, a political appointment.

But the e-mail messages show that a month before the interview, he directed Kathleen Cox, then president of the corporation, to send material to Ms. Andrews at her White House e-mail address. They show that Ms. Andrews worked on a variety of ombudsman issues before joining the corporation, while still on the White House payroll. And they show that the White House instructed the corporation on Ms. Andrews's job title in her new post.

You'll like this I think. Here is a little more from the Salon poster I quoted upthread.

" Things can turn on a dime.

This is particularly true when you are talking about people who tend to operate on belief. Beliefs can change in an instant. It doesn't require some accumulation of knowledge. Push the right button and boom, beliefs are turned on their head!


Another new frame. I'm promoting this one to replace the various forms of "Bush lied to take us to war."

Version 1
Bush terrorized the American people with baseless threats of
annihilation to frighten them into supporting a war he was
hell-bent on waging.

Version 2
Bush was hell-bent on war. He terrorized the American people
to pull it off.

The various forms of “Bush lied to take America into war" just don’t to grab attention anymore. Not long ago, it was a big deal to say a politician lied, but when people got angry enough, they dropped the euphemisms. Unfortunately, there have been so many lies the word is becoming hackneyed.

The key words are terrorized and hell-bent. This isn't hyperbole. These words evoke an accurate, detailed, picture of his crimes:

Terrorize: To coerce by intimidation or fear.

Hell-bent: Recklessly determined."

Posted by: Pat C on June 19, 2005 05:43 AM

I have never been able to get over how we fixate on George Bush, whether we like him or not he has become the symbol of what we are against. It's not George Bush, he is only a prop to the real problem and those people are pulling international strings. If there was ever a propitious time for what is called the anti-Christ, it's now. We are all looking so hard for someone to save us from the Bush cartel, we would accept the devil himself if he seemed nice and we would be right back to giving our power away to another prop.

I don't think there has been a week go by in the last 5 years that I haven't been stunned, shocked, appalled and thought if the people just could hear this or see this we would rise up and remove this gang of thugs, but there isn't any vehicle to do so. Not Congress, not the media, not the Judiciary, no one and that is our dilemma. When this is done, rebuilding is going to take some hard work and creativity, thank heavens Uranus will be in Aries and hopefully that will infuse us with initiative and energy. One thing for sure, I am going to hold out for honesty in government and would love to give the boot to the PR firms.

Conyers vs. The Post

There is painful irony in the fact that, during the same month that the confirmation of "Deep Throat's" identity has allowed the Washington Post to relive its Watergate-era glory days, that newspaper is blowing the dramatically more significant story of the "fixed" intelligence the Bush administration used to scam Congress and U.S. allies into supporting the disasterous invasion and occupation of Iraq.

Last week, when the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, Michigan Democrat John Conyers, chaired an extraordinary hearing on what has come to be known as the "Downing Street Memo" -- details of pre-war meetings where aides to British Prime Minister Tony Blair discussed the fact that, while the case for war was "thin," the Bush administration was busy making sure that "the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy" -- the Post ridiculed Conyers and the dozens of other members of Congress who are trying to get to the bottom of a scandal that former White House counsel John Dean has correctly identified as "worse than Watergate."

Post writer Dana Milbank penned a snarky little piece that, like similar articles in the New York Times and other "newspapers of record," displayed all the skepticism regarding Bush administration misdeeds that one might expect to find in a White House press release.

To his credit, Conyers hit back.

(copy of Conyers' letter)

The years of the Bush presidency will be remembered as a time when American media, for the most part, practiced stenography to power -- and when once-great newspapers became little more than what the reformers of another time referred to as "the kept press."

The Conyers letter, like the thousands of communications from grassroots activists to media outlets across this country pressing for serious coverage of the "Downing Street Memo" and the broader debate about the Bush administration's doctoring of intelligence prior to the launch of the Iraq war, is an essential response to our contemporary media crisis. That it had to be written provides evidence of just how serious that crisis has grown.

Posted by: Pat C on June 19, 2005 06:43 AM

I think you are right Sally. I do also think that Bush et al have caused people to be more concious of the hidden hands of the elite. That's the most positive thing Bush could have given to the world....that and "that guy" who you would like to have a beer with, is not that guy at all.

Posted by: Pat C on June 19, 2005 06:46 AM

Sally, it goes so deep in the psyche and it's so hard to root out. Honesty is not rewarded by society. Image is everything, and the more inaccurate the reflection, the more people seem to buy it. Then comes reality television as some attempt to get in touch with this lost dimension. They refuse to look at life as is, and continue to peer into screens to save them from the sight.

They worship criminals and monsters. Can't seem to get enough. In their books, movies, television shows, they scream. There are some perfectly decent people that could represent us, but the people always seem to bypass them for the more frightening, melodramatic, destructively powerful, surgically altered, almost alien types. The public just worships negativity. The PR firms are only feeding their appetite. People seem to think that kindness is weak and sentimental, and not exciting. Not to be taken seriously.

I have been pondering this for a long time. What one can do to change this at the core.

British bombing raids were illegal, says Foreign Office

A SHARP increase in British and American bombing raids on Iraq in the run-up to war “to put pressure on the regime” was illegal under international law, according to leaked Foreign Office legal advice.

The advice was first provided to senior ministers in March 2002. Two months later RAF and USAF jets began “spikes of activity” designed to goad Saddam Hussein into retaliating and giving the allies a pretext for war.

The Foreign Office advice shows military action to pressurise the regime was “not consistent with” UN law, despite American claims that it was.

The decision to provoke the Iraqis emerged in leaked minutes of a meeting between Tony Blair and his most senior advisers — the so-called Downing Street memo published by The Sunday Times shortly before the general election.

Democratic congressmen claimed last week the evidence it contains is grounds for impeaching President George Bush.

I also believe that the elite or whoever seems to be in charge are just caricatures of who we are collectively, and what we desire. The group certainly doesn't aspire to the simple life of humility, although the happiest people studied are without a lot of material wealth. We can't seem to get this straight. The powerful and wealthy are the people's heroes, so naturally they are elevated. Bringing down the elite never works, either, as we continue to hoist them back up. When we no longer desire what they represent, they will vanish.

jm,

Too bad it's not just as simple as reincorporating the US under a new date to get a brand new natal chart. But of course, that would take a revolution. And even then, July 4, 1776 would still probably be etched in everyone's mind as the true birthdate of the US, so wouldn't that energy remain anyhow?

Who knew then that we'd someday end up with a real turkey like George W. Bush who just happens to share a Natal Sun at 13 Cancer with the US? The Republican Party itself is only natally 1 degree away, at 14 Cancer. Maybe it explains why they've all been able to successfully co-opt the flag, colors and so many of our national symbols? Bush and the Repugs definitely represent the ugly side of Cancerian solar energy. But lucky them, they're all getting opposed by Pluto transiting Capricorn from 2014-15.

If we ever did get to reincorporate the country, what kind of energy/balance should we be aiming for? What aspects? I guess every sign has it's positives and negatives, but it seems maybe Sun in Libra or Aquarius would be the ideal.

Also Jo, I know what you mean. Though I live in a pretty liberal part of Austin, I work in the conservative, very white gated communities out West. I have noticed more and more of them critical of Bush. Also, I was talking to a bunch of canadian tourists and they were shocked at the growing criticism of the administration when they spoke to Americans.

Bush has spoken [or, should I say god has spoken]

Re criticism of the war?

"Bush says US is in Iraq because of attacks on US."

Headline on what fishwrapper carrying his screed.

So, there you have it my friends... same ol', same ol' LIE... [Iraq had nothing to do w/ 9/11, remember. 'Course Bush has yet to prove he had nothing to do with it.]

Another quote from George W. Bush:

"You have to remember when I'm talking about war, I'm talking about peace."

Tell that to the Catholics who leave mass with "Peace be with you" --- or to the rest of us who say "Peace" to each other.

Better yet, tell that to our maimed troops, the families of our fallen troops, the families of the victims of the bombs we have dropped on innocent Iraqis... the families of children maimed by cluster bombs, the families of detainees in Gitmo who were 'swept up' and have been tortured and abused for years... tell that to the world that saw through George's lies even as he was stomping up and that upon its stage, hellbent on going into Iraq.

Tell everybody. George Walker Bush used the terror of 9/11 to enable him to make war anywhere anytime. He used 9/11 to terrorize this country. Actually, he may have done more than that. Those planes did not bring the Twin Towers down. That is the lie of all lies.

Two Top Guns Shoot Blanks
By FRANK RICH
TO understand how the Bush administration has lost the public opinion war on Iraq it may be helpful to travel in H. G. Wells's time machine back to Oct. 30, 1938.

That was the Sunday night that Orson Welles staged the mother of all fake news events: his legendary radio adaptation of another Wells fantasy, "The War of the Worlds." The audience was told four times during the hourlong show that it was fiction, but to no avail. A month after Munich, Americans afflicted with war jitters were determined to believe the broadcast's phony news flashes that Martians had invaded New Jersey. Mobs fled their homes in a "wave of mass hysteria," as The New York Times described it on Page 1, clogging roads and communications systems. Two days later, in an editorial titled "Terror by Radio," The Times darkly observed that "what began as 'entertainment' might readily have ended in disaster" and warned radio officials to mind their "adult responsibilities" and think twice before again mingling "news technique with fiction so terrifying."

That's one Times editorial, it can be said without equivocation, that didn't make a dent. Nearly seven decades later the mingling of news and fiction has become the default setting of American infotainment, and Americans have become so inured to it that the innocent radio listeners bamboozled by Welles might as well belong to another civilization. Nowhere is the distance between that America and our own more visible than in the hoopla surrounding the latest adaptation of "The War of the Worlds," the much-awaited Steven Spielberg movie opening June 29.

Like its broadcast predecessor, the new version has already proved to be a launching pad for an onslaught of suspect news bulletins. This time the headlines are less earthshaking than an invasion from outer space, but they are no less ubiquitous: in repeated public appearances, most famously on "Oprah," the Spielberg movie's star, the 42-year-old Tom Cruise, has fallen to his knees and jumped on couches to declare his undying love for the 26-year-old Katie Holmes, the co-star of another summer spectacular, "Batman Begins." Forget about those bygone Hollywood studio schemes to concoct publicity-generating off-screen romances for its stars-in-training. Here is a lavishly produced freak show, designed to play out in real time, enthusiastically enacted by the biggest star in the business. On Friday, after popping the big question to Ms. Holmes at the Eiffel Tower, Mr. Cruise promptly dragged his intended to a news conference.

But though the audience for this drama is as large as, if not larger than, that for Welles's, there's one big difference. The Cruise-Holmes romance is proving less credible to Americans in 2005 than a Martian invasion did to those of 1938. A People magazine poll found that 62 percent deem the story a stunt. To tabloid devotees, the reasons for Mr. Cruise's credibility gap are the perennial unsubstantiated questions about his sexuality and his very public affiliation with a church, Scientology, literally founded by a science-fiction writer. But something bigger is going on here. The subversion of reality that Welles slyly introduced into modern American media in 1938 has reached its culmination and a jaded public is at last in open revolt.

The boundary between reality and fiction has now been blurred to such an extent by show business, the news business and government alike that almost no shows produced by any of them are instantly accepted as truth. The market for fake news has become so oversaturated that a skeptical public is finally dismissing most of it as hooey until proven otherwise (unless it is labeled as fake news from the get-go, as it is by Jon Stewart). We'll devour the supposedly real Cruise-Holmes liaison for laughs but give it no more credence than a subplot on "Desperate Housewives."

Welles unwittingly set us on the path toward the utter destabilization of reality with "War of the Worlds," and then compounded the syndrome with his subsequent film masterpiece "Citizen Kane," a fictional biography of a thinly disguised William Randolph Hearst that invented the pseudo-journalistic docudrama. But it's only in the past few years that Welles's ideas have been taken completely over the top by his trashy heirs. Not only do we have TV movies bastardizing the history of celebrities living and dead, but there is also a steady parade of "real" celebrities playing themselves in their own fictionalized "reality" shows. (This summer alone, Bobby Brown, Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee, Hugh Hefner's girlfriends and Paris Hilton's mother are all getting their own series.) The Cruise-Holmes antics, not to mention the concurrent shenanigans of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, add yet another variant to this mix, shrewdly identified by Patrick Goldstein of The Los Angeles Times as "a new rogue genre in which celebrities act out their own reality show, free from the constraints of a network time slot or a staged setting, like a boardroom or a desert island."

Politicians who dive into this game by putting on their own reality shows think they are being very clever. But like Mr. Cruise, they're being busted by a backlash. John Kerry was the first to feel it: his stagy military pageant, complete with salute, at the Democratic National Convention came off as so phony that the greater (but more subtle) fictions of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth struck many as relatively real by comparison. George W. Bush proved a somewhat more accomplished performer - in his first term. With the help of Colin Powell and some nifty props, he effortlessly sold the country on Saddam W.M.D.'s. He got away with using a stunt turkey as the photo-op centerpiece during his surprise Thanksgiving 2003 visit to the troops in Iraq. His canned "Ask the President" campaign town-hall meetings - at which any potentially hostile questioner was either denied admittance or hustled out by goons - were slick enough to be paraded before unsuspecting viewers as actual news on local TV outlets, in the tradition of Welles's bogus "War of the Worlds" bulletins.

But the old magic is going kaput. Mr. Bush's 60-stop Social Security "presidential roadshow," his latest round of pre-scripted and heavily rehearsed faux town-hall meetings, hasn't repeated the success of "Ask the President." Support for private Social Security accounts actually declined as the tour played out and Mr. Bush increasingly sounded as if he were protesting too much. "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda," the president said on May 24. He sounded as if he were channeling Mr. Cruise's desperate repetitions of his love for his "terrific lady."

The shelf life of the fakery that sold the war has also expired. On June 7, a Washington Post/ABC News poll found for the first time that a majority of Americans believe the war in Iraq has not made the United States safer. A week later Gallup found that a clear majority (59 percent) wants to withdraw some or all American troops. Most Americans tell pollsters the war isn't "worth it," and the top reasons they cite, said USA Today, include "fraudulent claims and no weapons of mass destruction found" and "the belief that Iraq posed no threat to the United States." The administration can keep boasting of the Iraqi military's progress in taking over for Americans and keep maintaining that, as Dick Cheney put it, the insurgency is in its "last throes." But when even the conservative Republican congressman who pushed the House cafeteria to rename French fries "freedom fries" (Walter B. Jones of North Carolina) argues for withdrawal, it's fruitless. Once a story line becomes incredible, it's hard to get the audience to fall for it again.

This, too, echoes the history of the Welles hoax. Three years after his "War of the Worlds," the real nightmare that America feared did arrive. Yet some radio listeners at first thought that the reports from Pearl Harbor were another ruse. Welles would later recall in an interview with Peter Bogdanovich that days after the Japanese attack, Franklin Roosevelt sent him a cable chiding him for having cried wolf with his faked war "news" of 1938.

Such is the overload of faked reality for Americans at this point that it will be far more difficult for the Bush administration than it was for F.D.R. to persuade the nation of an imminent threat without appearing to cry wolf. Nor can it easily get the country to believe that success in Iraq is just around the corner. Too many still remember that marvelous aircraft-carrier spectacle marking the end of "major combat operations" in Iraq - a fake reality show adapted, no less, from a Tom Cruise classic, "Top Gun." Some 25 months and 1,500 American deaths later, nothing short of a collaboration by Orson Welles and Steven Spielberg could make this war fly in America now.

Last week I misstated the Friday evening on which the Pentagon buried its report certifying desecrations of the Koran by American guards. It was June 3, not May 27.

From DU:

Limbaugh: "If we get hit again" by terrorists, blame

Leahy, Biden, Durbin, Boxer, Kennedy, Reid, Newsweek, Time, The New York Times, and Amnesty International"

Nationally syndicated radio host Rush Limbaugh declared that "if we get hit again" by terrorists, it will be the fault of Democratic senators, the mainstream media, and Amnesty International, "who have names and identities and spend their every waking moment trying to obstruct our ability to secure intelligence information for our own national security."

From the June 14 broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show:

LIMBAUGH: Let me tell you something, folks, if we are hit again, if we are hit again, we need to hold these people in our country who are undermining our efforts responsible. It ain't going to be the FBI's fault next time. It isn't going to be the CIA's fault next time. It isn't going to be some bureaucracy's fault next time. It's going to be the fault of politicians, left-wing groups and the like who have names and identities and spend their every waking moment trying to obstruct our ability to secure intelligence information for our own national security.

I heard one of the Air America hosts talking about the "Duke" Cunningham scandel which is another bete noir for the rethugs....found Talking Points Memo had lots on it....what hubris brings:
http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/index-old.php

With the news today that the boat Randy "Duke" Cunningham lives on down at the yacht club really isn't 'his' yacht but rather a yacht pretty clearly bought for him by a defense contractor getting his help on the appropriations committee, you really 
Advertisement

  have to wonder: How do they think they'll get away with it? And yet, until now he has.

Yeah, I know. Apparently the Duke is 'renting' the boat. But how is it exactly that Mitchell Wade's boat got named the 'Duke Stir' anyway? He's a big John Wayne fan?

In any case, this is one of the things that always surprises me about Washington. There are many members of Congress -- hopefully most, but who knows? -- who are almost comically precise in following all the various rules and regulations about who has to pay for meals or whether some little trinket gift has to be reported. And when you're literal about them the rules are pretty broad and encompassing.

Even folks who get in trouble for campaign finance stuff are often breaking technical rules which, while important, don't go to issues of personal gain for the member of Congress involved. A lot of DeLay's troubles stem from Texas laws about corporate giving in political campaigns in the state.

And then you've got Duke Cunningham who appears to be more or less owned by a defense contractor with business before his committee. I mean, when you add up all we know, it seems like Mitchell Wade basically bought or heavily contributed to buying the Duke luxury homes (albeit, one waterborne) in the district and in Washington. And apparently no one noticed.

It's right out of the 19th century.

Do GOP Senators Really Want To Take Another Run At Private Accounts?

Not wanting to back away quietly from a losing hand, it appears that three GOP senators are still looking for that privatization pony in a pile of public opinion you-know-what.  Not satisfied with approval ratings in the 20’s and 30’s on the GOP’s handling of Social Security and privatization, Jim DeMint, Little Ricky Santorum, and unfortunately Lindsey Graham will try a new approach to sell private accounts next week when they roll out a new financing plan on Tuesday.  And what new and improved idea do these three have on how to pay for private accounts?  Empty the filing cabinets.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH AMERICA?

Thomas Frank just published another searing attack on the Republicans' manipulative evil, the Democrats' craven reaction to it, and how this has resulted in poor, helpless Middle America getting duped once again. In his New York Review of Books article, "What's the Matter with Liberals?" Frank, like nearly all of his fellow left-wing intellectuals, proves he is fearless when trashing the ideological elites in both parties (indeed, like the cream of the left elite, he is especially adept at trashing his own faction), but he's mysteriously pen-shy when it comes to the American people's enthusiastic role in this grand sucker-game.

In Frank's mind, innocent, vulnerable Middle America was sold on a Republican platform that promised a kind of cultural class war, with the right backing the beleaguered masses of zombie-worshipping imbeciles against the coastal cosmopolitan elite—only to get stuck with a massive post-election bill payable to the Republicans' corporate sponsors.

Well blow me down.

In all of these liberal/left attacks on the Republicans' propaganda con game, and the Dems' allegedly limp-dicked response, no one yet has the guts to say out loud what every leftie knows deep down: The American people are FUCKING CRAZY! They actually WANT to be duped! The reason why the Republican con game works is because most Americans WANT TO BE CONNED! They are enthusiastic slaves! Fierce lickspittles! Congenital bottomers! It makes perfect sense that Dems like Harry Reid and John Kerry moved as far to the crazy-right as they could possibly manage; they were trying to get as close to the rank heart of Middle America as possible. And still they failed.

The Republicans are selling a product that Middle America wants to buy, and it's a far better product than what the Democrats have to offer. That product is meanness. Americans are hooked on meanness, and that meanness is everywhere, particularly at the workplace, where American workers have been getting increasingly reamed for almost three decades. By this point, the brutal squeeze has been so deeply internalized that it is impossible to imagine—indeed, is offensive to consider—the possibility that someone might make life a little easier. The Republicans offer two things to their voters: to make life more miserable on people who seem to be happy (the coastal elite); and to increase the pain of the average Middle American, who, in the words of former GE chief Jack Welch, has "unlimited juice to squeeze."

Speaking of Jack Welch....

From Daykeeper Journal:

WEDNESDAY JUNE 22

Our high-powered Solstice period continues with Full Moon at 1 Capricorn at 12:14 a.m. EDT. This is a very special period. Within less than 24 hours, we experienced Sun entering Moon’s sign of Cancer to mark Summer Solstice, and Moon entering that zodiac degree which marks the rebirth of the Sun at Winter Solstice. We’ve just had Mars, Juno and Vesta move into new signs, and Chiron is barely into Aquarius. We are entering a new energy field, which will open opportunities for deep change.

We can notice that change now. It’s time to create new stories. And we have the imagination to do it. In the chart set for Washington DC, Pisces, the sign which connects us with the universe, is rising. That means that outer planet Neptune, energy of dreams and wild fantasies, rules this chart. Uranus, planet of shocks, surprises, disruption and enlightenment, sits right on the Ascendant, a vital position. Transformative Pluto, the third major outer planet, sits at the top of the chart, close to Moon, influencing all of the other energies. Much power is thus available,as it streams down to us.

This chart is dominated by the three outer planets, which change consciousness at deep levels. Imagination, vision, and willfulness combine to create our new stories. Moon, the most personal planet, sits amongst these abstract, far-reaching, transformative energies. Moon represents the people, personal feelings, and attachments to home and group. We have here the opportunity to broaden our most intimate perspective, and to understand that the universe is truly our home.

At the same time, patriotism and attachments to family and the security of the familiar are strong. Venus and Mercury, which indicate loving thoughts and communication, are about to join Saturn in the homey sign of Cancer. Saturn in Cancer has a strong emotional need for home ground, or territory.

Essentially, this is a moment of focus on family and society, home and work—and how do our daily lives fit into the changing times?

This is an active, ambitious, and energetic day. Both today and tomorrow favor working on specific goals. What do we want?

This Moon family began just before Christmas 2003. That was when Sharon invaded Gaza, and it was made public that Pentagon memos said that torture was OK.

The Sabian Symbol for 1 Capricorn is the same Sabian Symbol for the Winter Solstice Sun:

“AN INDIAN CHIEF CLAIMS POWER FROM THE ASSEMBLED TRIBE. The power and responsibility implied in any claim for leadership. The energies released through group cooperation (Libra), deepened and emotionally experienced as forces of great potency (Scorpio), and given meaning and conscious purpose (Sagittarius) are now stabilized and hierarchized. The power of the group is turned into a carefully managed “capital.” The words “chief” and “capital” come from the same Latin Root, caput, meaning “head.” We pause here at the stage of social development of an organized hierarchy, with someone in charge. The capacity latent in every individual to claim and assume AUTHORITY in a vital group situation.”

The East Coast of the U.S., and all of Latin America are particularly stimulated. To that we add Europe, especially Berlin, Paris, London and Madrid. Aggressive energy is strong through Moscow, the Middle East, and much of Africa. Also through the Far East. Japan could have financial problems. (Japan is one of the principal backers of the U.S.)

Bushido: The Way of the Armchair Warrior

President Bush and his administration have come under a lot of criticism for their handling of... well, for their handling of just about everything when it comes to foreign policy. Arguably, though, Bush’s strategy has not been based upon the evangelical Christianity assumed by so many but, rather, his own personal implementation of “Zen” philosophy.
Evan Eisenberg writes in The New Yorker (via Mark Kleiman):

Knowledge is not important. The armchair warrior strives to attain a state beyond knowledge, a state of deep, non-knowing connection to the universe: in particular, to that portion of the universe which is rich, powerful, or related to him by blood. The unenlightened speak of "failures of intelligence." But the armchair warrior knows that "intelligence"—the effort of the mind to observe facts, apply reason, and reach conclusions about what is true and what ought to be done—is a delusion...
The armchair warrior does not fear death, especially not the death of other people. The unenlightened mind is easily swayed by pictures. Since it fails to grasp that life and death are illusions, the sight of the flag-draped remains of those slain by the enemy may make it susceptible to weakness and feelings of pity. Therefore, the armchair warrior does not let the people see such images, except in settings that can be properly controlled, such as his own campaign advertisements.
Eisenberg’s article offers a very amusing, not to mention interesting, take on the current administration’s foreign policy tactic. If only it didn’t seem so accurate...

Is it happening to the Cancer Republican house of cards?

"Things aren't getting better; they're getting worse. The White House is completely disconnected from reality," [Republican Senator Chuck Hagel] tells U.S. News. "It's like they're just making it up as they go along. The reality is that we're losing in Iraq."

Hagel supposedly stole his election on his rigged voting machines.(He has ownership in the company). I wonder if there will be a real mutiny with the elections looming.

Interesting solstice chart, Pat C.

Heads Up! Republicans are calling the DSM's fake

http://ussneverdock.blogspot.com/2005/06/britain-downing-street-memos-fake.html

Excerpt:

It appears the originals may still exist after all. Raw Story has this tid bit:

“I first photocopied them to ensure they were on our paper and returned the originals, which were on government paper and therefore government property, to the source,” he added. [...]

“It was these photocopies that I worked on, destroying them shortly before we went to press on Sept 17, 2004,” he added. “Before we destroyed them the legal desk secretary typed the text up on an old fashioned typewriter.”

Smith appears to be tripping up here. He says he returned the originals because they were on government paper and therefore government property. So, photocopying a page out of a book makes the words no longer the property of the author?

Now let me get this straight. Dan Rather's forged documents were typed up on a computer using the default setting of Microsoft Word. And now Smith wants us to believe that his legal secretary used "an old fashioned typewriter" to forge the Downing Street memos? When was the last time you saw an old fashioned typewriter, let alone use one? Why would you want to type them up on a typewritter instead of a computer? Was Smith trying to make them look more authentic? Was he trying to avoid his own Rathergate?

jm,

You know who else has a Natal Moon in Aquarius, don't you? The Dems. It's at 28 Aquarius. Incidentally, the US Natal Moon is at 27 Aquarius.

Now, let's think about this for a minute. The Democrats are Natally-emotionally(Moon) just 1 degree apart from the United States. Meanwhile, the Repugs, with a Natal Sun at 14 Cancer, are Natally-physically just 1 degree apart from the US' Natal Sun at 13 Cancer.

Recall what I said earlier about how the Repugs (and Bush) seem to have such an easy time co-opting all of the American symbols and winning over people with rah rah patriotism? It seems they are closely in tune with the physical essence of the US. Big surprise there, right?

But we all know the Moon rules our emotions, and therefore, our hearts. The Democratic Party is extremely close to the essence of the United States' heart, which is humanitarian, democratic, independent and revolutionary.

By possessing the Cancerian solar energy one natal degree apart from the US, The Repugs may have the natural edge and understanding on how to whip people into a frenzy with patriotism, the flag and symbols of home. But from the heart comes the infinitely deeper essence of where we come from and what we stand for. And isn't it the heart that matters most? One natal degree apart from the US Moon in Aquarius, the Dems are in touch with the true heart and soul of America.

No wonder they so often seem lost, confused and directionless lately. Along with those of the US, Neptune transiting Aquarius is fogging up their emotions and their emotional judgement!

George Lakoff has made some suggestions on spinning the issue of Gay Rights/Gay Marriage into a favorable position for liberals and progressives.

Dear Joanna, well I just logged on to post that I took a look at my progressions and realized that T. Pluto is directly opposing my Progressed Saturn at 23 Gemini. And that I got sick with the horrid sore throat right after T. Jupiter went direct at 8 Libra (which is opposite N. Mars at 8 Aries)...and then I looked at the Progressed Jupiter, and IT is right at 8 Libra. So my Saturn is going wildly out of bounds in Gemini and Mars/Jupiter (my Mars is in the 6th house of health) was probably in charge of the ring of fire in my throat. My natal Mercury is at 27 Taurus...ruler of the throat...say, THAT is wildly out of bounds too! Gee...you just can't make this stuff up!

Neo....that is such a RIGHT on analyses of the Sun/Moon aspects...and also why most women lean to the Dem party....! I think that the repub party only gets the women with the hardened emotions.

WV...I fell down laughing at the Bushido armchair warrior! That piece totally captures the phony 'guru' energy of so many new age types....and hey, the person I was trying to think of in connection with the Bushido Warrior seminars was Dick Sutphen...a fellow Art Center School graduate, although way before me, he wrote books of poetry and got into past life regressions up in Sedona. He really sparked the growth of this kind of newage consciousness in Arizona....he was quite magnetic personally (his publishing company was across the hall from me in Scottsdale). Then he morphed into publishing and expensive world wide seminars. He based it all on regressions....funny, I never thought to check online to see what has happened to him....

So has anyone else seen the so called news story that the DSM are 'faked' Pat C? I am curious, is this a run at saying it is all going to be a giant rathergate again?

Can we trust any media now? they are all emeshed in the games.....and Cronkite is too retired or old to save us now.

I got it from a pretty reliable sourse that it is be churned up out there. They are using the part about photocopying the original government documents as a starting point. It's the same thing they did to Dan Rather. We'll see if the talking mouths on cable start using it by tomorrow or soon after.

M., thank you for tellimg me about bluff being used for fear. It's kind of a cool concept when you think about it...putting up a bluff when you are afraid and have it bluff out the fear.

Neobuckeye, I think you gave a great interpretation regarding the Republican sun, the Democratic moon, and the U.S. chart. I'm going to take another look at the charts for both political parties. I only understand the most basic of aspects so it's interesting to me that when Saturn transited the Bush and Republican Party sun, they both seeme to do very well. So when Saturn opposes the U.S./Democratic natal moons in August 2007, it may very well mean we will get our act together and also do well.

re: 6:36 Sally post & 6:59 JM post:

Sally said now would be a good time for the anti-christ to show up, and I thought, "I think Bush IS the anti-christ!" (I told my sister that a couple years ago when she told me she was reading the "Left Behind" books.)

Then JM said "the public worships negativity" and that honesty and kindness aren't honored in our culture, but seen as weak, etc. And I was struck with the thought:

Is this negativity the public worships the anti-christ?

We (our culture) tend to personify/humanize these things: God is a big, old white guy with a long beard, the antichrist is a person or person-like being. Maybe these things are more along the lines of energies with which we are infused?

As for how we might change the negative perception of honesty and kindness, I think we each do so in our own selves, in our own lives. I don't think we can change the world (or country) by mandating these traits; but if we each live them, model them, be an example (rather than telling/asking/etc. others to do so), maybe a flow of change will begin.

Just as charity begins at home, so does virtue, self-knowledge, etc etc etc. IMHO. (hahahahhahaha! Surely you all realize by now that while I may have my moments of humility, my opinions do not have theirs.)

Judi Gemini, correct me if I am wrong...I think only planets in Cancer/Capricorn, Gemini/Sag can be out of bounds by declination. Just don't want you to get of on the wrong foot in interpretation.

The rest of it was about Jupiter going direct and the tie into my sore throat!

and what's a kaffifle?

Pat C....still not quite sure about what is going on....are you saying it is a delberate torpedoing, that you got the info that it IS a torpedoing from a reliable source, or that the reliable source says they are fake? I'm confused

Just sent an email to Downingstreetmemo.org and alerted them about the article on ussneverdock.blogspot.

Man, am I bummed out or what?!!! It will be the end of Bonifaz and Conyers if they were duped by this. And maybe this whole thing was an enormous trap set up by Rove or Murdoch...highly unlikely, but in this Neptunian quagmire I cannot get proof of the facts anywhere. And everything seems to vaporize if it seems to be true...Rathergate was horrible, mainly because we knew it was true, but there was no tangible proof. Now again, this!

LONDON - When Prime Minister Tony Blair's chief foreign policy adviser dined with Condoleezza Rice six months after Sept. 11, the then-U.S. national security adviser didn't want to discuss Osama bin Laden or al-Qaida. She wanted to talk about "regime change" in Iraq, setting the stage for the U.S.-led invasion more than a year later.

President Bush wanted Blair's support, but British officials worried the White House was rushing to war, according to a series of leaked secret Downing Street memos that have renewed questions and debate about Washington's motives for ousting Saddam Hussein.

NEO B,

Thanks so much. I was wondering about the Dems chart. I completely agree with you that they are in touch with the heart of this country. The Republicans seem to force their issues more.

I think the dominant party changes with the times. Since we had Saturn in Cancer, we had to investigate that part of our character. But now that Saturn is leaving, I think things will change, and the Democrats will resonate more with our needs. Saturn in Leo opposing the Aquarius, with Neptune there, will bring different things to the fore. There is a lot of Uranian energy ahead to add to it.

I'm glad you brought up George Bush's Sun in Cancer so close to the USA's. As painful as it was, we needed him in this quest for security and safety that we've been on, if only to scare us enough to find it. We should all have our houses in order to some degree now. Astroworld is a perfect example. It is a genuine cozy hideaway, where intimacy prevails, and we can express our feelings, our fears, our rage in safe company. We are a closeknit group and there is a feeling of trust. This will serve us well as the heat out there rises.

George Bush will be gone forever and I doubt that any other Bushes will be in power.
And all I have to say is,"Good-by".

Lord knows what we are getting next.

I hate when I type a post and it doesn't take!

But, in short, what I said was:

DSM is real. This is a lame diversionary tactic. Don't buy into it.

If it were truly fake, why was it not disavowed in Great Britain when it first appeared? Why was it not covered in the US for so long, then finally covered by the snooze media (probably out of humiliation and harrassment by readers in the know)? Why, after it prompted House hearings, were the hearings belittled? Naaaah, come on, everyone, don't fall for this.

If I'M wrong, I'll eat a photocopy of it...with ketchup on. (my other post was a lot better, really!)

Posted by: Lori on June 20, 2005 06:00 AM

Judi, about the map of the earth changes, I believe that the articles posted previously with information channeled by Kryon, Kirael and Matthew (I think I have those names right) all said that we have averted many of the previously predicted earth changes due to the level of spirituality now existing on earth. In fact, the Kryon info said that we will all be taken inside the earth and off the earth onto light ships by the time the changes are supposed to happen (the rapture?) IMHO, probably some of Cayce's predictions will happen, but not necessarily all of them. As far as the oceans rising, that is obviously happening but, as was said in the DU post, that seems like it will happen over time. Yes, coastal land in the Gulf and Southern Atlantic could become worthless, but won't we see it coming? Also, there is always the choice of building on stilts as they do in "stilt city" right outside Miami and Key Biscayne. I wouldn't lock my mind around this scenario. The truth is that psychic predictions can be very fluid & change according to changing conditions. Even if we assume the predictions will happen, Cayce & others have said that people will be guided to leave. The DU site you posted (now removed) listed Cayce's predictions and VA Beach, Indiana, Ohio, Southern & Eastern Canada were mentioned as being safe Havens. If I remember correctly from my reading of Cayce, so are Australia, New Zealand and Brazil.

That link I posted is from a neoconservative website trying to prove that the minutes are fake. I don't think they are fake at all and I don't think Conyers et al would have held the hearing if they wern't darn sure of their authenticity. It appears to be an atttempt to destroy the credibility of the memos or minutes, just as they did to Dan Rather on the AWOL matter.

Posted by: Pat C on June 20, 2005 06:02 AM

Lori,

On changing the negative habit... it's behavior modification which seems to be one of the few things that work in psychology. If positive behavior is reinforced, the human creature will repeat it. If we do that together, it will become habit. It might not be as hard as we think. The behavior actually develops different neural pathways in the brain. And as the negative neurons are not used, they atrophy, or reroute. It happens quickly.
It really starts small from the center and works outward. The more individuals develop these habits, and stick to them, the more they will attract others.
We have to make sure others don't influence us to abandon the virtues.

Tom Vilsack is one name that is coming up frequently as having a very strong future in the Democratic Party.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Vilsack

Thomas James Vilsack (born December 13, 1950, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) was elected 40th Governor of the state of Iowa in 1998. He was reelected to a second four-year term in 2002.

channeled stuff aside (I do that kind of stuff also, and most of it but not all of it never comes true)....I did some art work, sketching, for a fellow from Stanford about 7 years ago on the earthchanges which have happened just here in the SF Bay area from 11,000 years ago. Really, just a cosmic blink of the eye....and projected forward another 1,000 years. 11K years ago, there was no SF bay....the area was occupied by a small river surrounded by grass land plains in gradual step ups to what we occupy now. IT was occupied by mastadon, wooley mammoth, saber tooth tigers, cave bears, etc.....gazelles, and other ancestors of the hooved type, horses...the river ran out from San Jose area north and then out thru what is the ocean under the Golden Gate bridge....about 100 feet lower than the surface of the ocean now....with cliffs on Sf and Marin sides. Sand dunes ran out to the Farallon islands, with marsh grasses and sand dunes covering what is now Daly City and western SF and Golden Gate park.

Now the ocean is high, and pounding away at Daly City....tens of homes have been lost at the current cliffs area, and more will go as the oceans rise. By 3000, the city of SF (I drew the Palace of Fine arts with water to its upper reaches) will be under 60 ft of ocean.

This is all from melting ice caps....we are moving into a new era, and it can happen fast, all though this is slow....

an inch higher every year and we will be inundated in no time.

Channeling doesn't do well with time.....as it is part of our dimension and not the channeling dimension....

I'll take the science proof over the channeling time.... The map I meantioned might be quite accurate in 1000 years from what we've been reading.....so in our next lives, we might be sporting gills!

Notice his birthdate...Dec 13....Pluto just went over his sun, and is one deg. from his Chiron and his Venus is 28 Sag...his moon is 17 Aquarius, with Neptune sitting right on it for such a long time, too. Even more: his north/south nodes are 23 Pisces/Virgo.....exactly squaring T. Pluto...and the Galactic Center....

whoa, what does all THAT mean? Looks like Pluto is doing some transforming....squaring his nodes makes me wonder, as that will be true for all with the nodes squaring Pluto...big challenges?

of Christianity. And the day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as His father, in
the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."

Posted by: jm on June 20, 2005 11:29 AM

Yes JM,

Jefferson was not a Christian... nor were most of the Founding Fathers (I truly despise that term - this country has ALWAYS used doublespeak! Did they find the country on the roadside, in the bushes? Did they give 'birth' to ideas? The idea of freedom RESIDES natally in every entity... I digress... as usual)

The phrase "In God We Trust" is only 50+ years old.

Listen to George Walker Bush speaking on elections in Iran:

"Bush described the election as an exercise in futility because Iran's real power rests with the non-elected Islamic clerics, who can override the president and parliament."

D'uh!!! And where does America's power reside?

Speaking of Iran, Condi expressed her views on the elections:

"...the election shows that the country is out of step with democratic reforms in the Middle East.

"I just don't see the Iranian elections as being a serious attempt to move Iran closer to a democratic future," she said in an interview on ABC's "This Week."

-----------

Change "democratic reforms" and "democratic future" above to "our agenda", and you clearly understand what the fascists are about...

"...the election shows that the country is out of step with our agenda in the Middle East.

"I just don't see the Iranian elections as being a serious attempt to move Iran closer to our agenda," she said in an interview on ABC's "This Week."

-------------

See, you simply have to know the "code" words. Of course as Scott Ritter has told us we have already gone to war against Iran (oh, you didn't get a memo, the Rez didn't tell you? 'Course he did, months ago... he said "Iran has until June to shut down their efforts to go nuklear" --- well, it's been June for 20 days now... and Ritter tells us:

"...history will show that the US-led war with Iran will not have begun once a similar formal statement is offered by the Bush administration, but, rather, had already been under way since June 2005, when the CIA began its programme of MEK-executed terror bombings in Iran."

http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/7896BBD4-28AB-48BA-A949
-2096A02F864D.htm

And you have to read Aljazeera to get Ritter's thoughts... the Corporate Media won't tell you. And hey, once the Rez does decide to tell the American people we are at war with Iran, they'll forget about those nasty ol' DSMs... so, two for the price of one! Bet he plays another round of golf that day! Almost the trifecta!

McCain, Again
John McCain -- possibly the worst, most persistent warmonger of them all -- is running for President, again, and he's on "Meet the Press" right this moment, telling the American people that they're wrong about Iraq -- we aren't totally losing. No, the insurgency isn't in its "last throes," but lots of people-- "foreigners," according to McCain -- don't think so. We get more "cut and run" rhetoric: the American people don't want to do it. But what about the polls: are people lying to pollsters?

and guess what?: "Tony Blair will seek backing of President Vladimir Putin in Moscow for Britain's ambitious plan of action on climate change."

Say it isn't so! Phony Tony leaving the Shrub for his 'soulmate', Putin! No!

CANNY COMMENT from a poster, another site...

"Think Progress has a blog thread regarding Condi Rice's recent statement about Iraq being a "generational committment" & thus not permitting the US to withdraw troops anytime soon. I think it is Rice who s/b committed. She can't even keep her (& bush's) past & present lies consistent. http://thinkprogress.org/index.php?p=1120

"This morning on Fox News Sun, Sec of State C Rice was asked if “the [rez regime] fairly [can] be criticized for failing to level with the American people about how long & difficult this commitment will be?” Rice responded:

"[T]he [regime], I think, has said to the American people that it is a generational commitment to Iraq."

That’s not true. To build support for the war [regime] told the American people that the conflict in Iraq will be short & affordable.

[v-rez] cheney, 3/16/03: "[M]y belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.... I think it will go relatively quickly... (in) wks rather than mos"

D Rumsfeld, 2/7/03: "It is unknowable how long that conflict will last. It cld last 6 dys, 6 wks. I doubt six mos."

Former Budget Dir Mitch Daniels, 3/28/03: "The US is committed to helping Iraq recover from the conflict, but Iraq will not require sustained aid…"

"DailyKos had a short but moving piece about our (US) fallen soldiers in Iraq from last Apr at
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/4/27/202420/054 in which an anonymous US soldier home for a fallen comrade's funeral describes the needless tragedy bush et al have inflicted on 1000s of American families who once mistakenly thot their loved ones fighting in Iraq were there defending the US. [HAH! ...since when did the US git up n' walk over to the Mid-East... you know, relocate itself]

'I just got back from attending the first of what I'm sure will be many memorial services for soldiers that have fallen in Iraq. At this pt, so many soldiers have died that I think some of us are almost numb to it. There is something about hearing the 21-gun salute as the widow cries that makes you less numb. I didn't know the soldier. I only arrived at this unit a few wks ago & he had deployed long before I arrived, but it was still a very emotional experience. My family & peers are all [necroporns], so I figured I'd get out my frustrations here. Also, because I didn't know him or his family, I don't know if he wld have wanted me to use his name, so I won't.

'I don't know how many of you have attended a ceremony for a fallen service member, but it is something in a class all its own. In this one the commander spoke first about his experience with the soldier. It was the usual about how he was defending freedom & such. But it was the next speaker, one of the deceased's peers, that really got to me. He described a friend, someone he played Xbox with & helped to avoid details. He described a man who was there for his friends. He talked about the soldier's family. He talked about his 2 sons, one of which was born a couple of mos after he got to Iraq; this is a son that will never, ever, touch or smell or play with his father. And he described a man who performed his duty well, whatever it was. And then he cried. There is something about a grown infantryman crying.

'This was a man with a family. He was a man with friends & people who depended on him. He died in pursuit of a vain war. He did die honorably; if it wasn't for him his entire squad might have been dead. But no member of his squad s/h even been in that situation. The Iraq war has caused so much sadness, both for us & for the Iraqis. It was an unnecessary invasion, & we have done little good for the country in the yrs since we've been there. I almost cried today. I almost cried, but not for the man that died--altho he was the catalyst. I almost cried because of the wrong-headed direction our "MBA [rez]" has taken us in. I almost cried because many people in this nation still support him. I almost cried because if we don't win in 2008 [ie if no non-[necroporn] wins the US prez election then], there is no telling how many more brave men will die.

The day when we morn women who die giving birth to Life... awarding HER acres of little white crosses... medals, folded up flags, etc., then I'll know we've turned around this whole culture of death-worshipping script lunatics imo.

Policy Shifts Felt After Bolton's Departure From State Dept.

For years, a key U.S. program intended to keep Russian nuclear fuel out of terrorist hands has been frozen by an arcane legal dispute. As undersecretary of state, John R. Bolton was charged with fixing the problem, but critics complained he was the roadblock.

Now with Bolton no longer in the job, U.S. negotiators report a breakthrough with the Russians and predict a resolution will be sealed by President Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin at an international summit in Scotland next month, clearing the way to eliminate enough plutonium to fuel 8,000 nuclear bombs.

Judi gemini, if the Downing Street memo were a fake don't you think Blair would have said so during his press conference with Bush last week? It would have been the perfect opportunity to debunk them. Don't think so ...

Dear Judi Gemini and Pat C.
Thanks ever so much for the Rawstory post. I also went into Downingstreet.org and noticed the Evidence section on the left hand side of the main screen. They are addressing and have addressed the Rathergate look alike scenerio. A must read. Pat C. Thanks for the heads up.

Judi, "kafiffle, and kafuffle" are words I made up to describe great agitation with the latter being larger than the former. I do this sometimes. (Uranus in Gemini in the 3rd house.)

Speaking of Repuglican fraud..

http://toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050619/NEWS24/50619020

Allegations arose before '04 election - Democrats say Noe case concealed to assist Bush

n the final weeks of the 2004 presidential race, the nation focused on Ohio as both campaigns carefully choreographed every move by their candidates, knowing one misstep could throw the keys to the White House into the hands of the opponent.

The national media scrutinized every detail of the high-stakes political battle, as President Bush and Democratic challenger John Kerry crisscrossed Ohio, energizing their bases and reaching out to swing voters in the Buckeye state, which ultimately decided the race by fewer than 120,000 votes.

At the same time - beneath the surface and out of public view - allegations were swirling that Tom Noe had laundered contributions into President Bush's campaign, and facts were emerging that the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation had lost $215 million meant for injured workers in a Bermuda hedge-fund.

Now, more than six months later, those bombshells have created the biggest state government scandal in decades in Ohio. Democrats are charging that Republican leaders suppressed the potentially explosive information until all the votes were counted to save the President's re-election campaign.

More....

Heads up:

The link Pat C. posted re Plame case @5:39:

"...Among the most powerful elements of support for the reporters was an amicus curie signed by the attorneys general of 34 states and the District of Columbia, Abrams says.

It is so counter-intuitive for state attorneys general - the very people one might think would be upset at losing the benefit of evidence - to have together said that there is another value so important it outweighs the interest in getting this information. It is a powerful blow in our favor."

Judith Miller was the PRIME journalist pushing the invasion of Iraq... the fascists owe her big time, I guess... whatcha bet the "34 State Atty Generals" are all Repugs, or Neocons...? Looks like another "fix" is in, besides the DSM!...

Don't let this crime fade away... there should be no protection for a journalist protecting someone who has committed the crime of exposing an intelligence operative's cover...

Posted by: Pat C on June 20, 2005 06:49 PM

(This is worth reading. It is short and to the point.)

Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years.

Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it.

You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare elevation in society They felt they should have a special plan for themselves. So, many years ago they voted in their
own benefit plan .

In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need to change it. After all, it is a great plan.

For all practical purposes their plan works like this:
When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die.

Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments..

This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two Dignitaries. For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to dra w $7,800,000 .00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawing $275,000.00 during the last years of their lives.


Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their lives.

Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00 . NADA....ZILCH....

This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up the tab for this plan . The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds;

"OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK "!

>From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into, -every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer)- we can expect to get an average of $1,000 per month after retirement.

Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000 monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal Senator! Bill Bradley's benefits!


Social Security could be very good if only one small change were made.

That change would be to:
Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and Congressmen. Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us
then sit back.....
and watch how fast they would fix it.

Corporation for Public Broadcasting to hold board meeting tomorrow (Tuesday, June 21) in Washington, D.C. -- attend if you can and tell the board not to appoint a longtime Republican activist as president of CPB

After The Washington Post reported on June 9 that former Republican National Committee co-chairwoman Patricia de Stacy Harrison is the "leading candidate" to be the next president of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), increased public attention has focused on CPB chairman Kenneth Y. Tomlinson's campaign to turn public broadcasting into a right-wing media outlet.

Last week, David Brock, president and CEO of Media Matters for America, wrote an open letter to the CPB board of directors regarding its selection of the corporation's next president. In addition, 21 members of the House of Representatives and three U.S. senators signed letters opposing Harrison's appointment. You can read these letters on the website of the Hands Off Public Broadcasting campaign, an effort by Media Matters to ensure that public broadcasting remains independent and free from political pressure.

If you live in the Washington, D.C., metro area, we would also like to invite you to join staff from Media Matters in attending the CPB board of directors meeting on Tuesday, June 21, from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the Blair-Killian board room at the CPB headquarters, located in downtown Washington at 401 9th Street, NW. See the meeting announcement and get directions to the CPB building on the CPB website.

If you haven't done so already, please urge the board of directors to find another candidate to lead the CPB -- one with more experience in public broadcasting than in partisan politics and government propaganda.

Key Points:

Harrison has an impressive resume as a Republican activist, but she lacks any experience in public broadcasting or independent journalism.
In fact, as acting under secretary of state for public diplomacy and public affairs, a political appointment she assumed in 2004, Harrison has overseen the Bureau of Public Affairs and the bureau's Office of Broadcasting Services, which produced radio and TV content specifically designed to promote and defend Bush administration policy.
By appointing a Republican activist to manage the CPB, the corporation's board of directors would be signaling to the American public that our nation's public broadcasting system is subject to political manipulation.
Take Action!

Visit http://www.cpb.org/talktous/ (opens in a new window). Select "A public broadcasting issue" and then "A suggestion" or "Other." Use some of the key points above or send your own message.

If you receive a response from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, let us know by forwarding the response to mm-tips@mediamatters.org. Be sure to indicate whether we have your permission to use the response with your personal information deleted for our continuing campaign.

... I just saw the movie, The Magdalene Sisters. Now this ... from the Huffington Post - when will men stop abusing women and when will women stop facilitating the abuse of their own sex? In this case, the young nun, 23 years old apparently "insulted" the priest during mass. He probably abused her and she called him out so he killed her and called it an exorcism.

Romanian priest unrepentant after crucifixion of nun Sat Jun 18, 3:55 PM ET

TANACU, Romania (AFP) - A Romanian Orthodox priest, facing charges for ordering the crucifixion of a young nun because she was "possessed by the devil," was unrepentant as he celebrated a funeral ceremony for his alleged victim.

"God has performed a miracle for her, finally Irina is delivered from evil," Father Daniel, 29, the superior of the Holy Trinity monastery in north-eastern Romania, told an AFP reporter before celebrating a short liturgy "for the soul of the deceased", in the presence of 13 nuns who showed no visible emotion.

He insisted that from the religious point of view the crucifixion of Maricica Irina Cornici, 23, was "entirely justified," but admitted he faced excommunication as well as prosecution, and was seeking a "good lawyer."

Prosecutors said Saturday they had charged the priest and four nuns with imprisonment leading to death, while religious authorities said he would be barred from celebrating liturgy until the investigation was completed. The monastery will be shut if they are found guilty, Father Daniel's superiors said.

Cornici was found dead on Wednesday, gagged and chained to a cross, after fellow nuns called an ambulance, according to police.

Mihaela Straub, spokeswoman for the police in the province of Vaslui, said Daniel and four other nuns had claimed Cornici was possessed and should be exorcised.

Before being crucified she had been kept shut up for several days, her hands and feet tied and without food or drink, he said. Cornici had entered the monastery just three months before, after visiting a friend who was a nun there, police said.

As her coffin entered the church of the monastery Saturday no church bells were sounded while nuns cast distrustful glances at the strangers, including two AFP reporters, present at the ceremony.

Claps of thunder from an approaching storm were sometimes the only sounds to break the silence. "This storm is proof that the will of God has been done," Daniel said. "You see it?" said the priest, gesturing at the body, lying in an annex and still showing the marks of the gag.

Daniel has lived for the past four years in the isolated monastery located in the hills of one of the poorest regions of Romania, without running water or electricity.

"Over there, in your world, the people must know that the devil exists. Personally I can find his work in the gestures and speech of possessed people, because man is often weak and lets himself be easily manipulated by the forces of evil," said the bearded young priest.

"I don't understand why journalists are making such a fuss about this. Exorcism is a common practise in the heart of the Romanian Orthodox church and my methods are not at all unknown to other priests," he said.

Sociologist Alred Bulai said that corporal punishment was still commonly used in certain Romanian monasteries. "It's happening particularly in the isolated monasteries, where the superiors have difficulty understanding the current realities and adapting themselves to modern life," Bulai said.

It was not clear why Father Daniel believed the nun was possessed. One parishoner, Dora, said the nun "had to be punished, she had an argument with the Father during a Sunday mass and insulted him in front of the congregation."

Mediafax news agency reported Saturday that the Cornici had recently been treated for "schizophrenia" at the local hospital, but the chief of the local child welfare office, Ionel Bratianu, said the nun was "in good health and did not suffer from any psychiatric trouble."

Cornici was raised in an orphanage until the age of 19, when she traveled to Germany to work as a nanny for a family of German doctors. After in-depth psychological and psychiatric tests, the German embassy had declared her apt to take care of children, said Bratianu.

Since the fall of the communist regime in December 1989, the Orthodox Church, which represents 85 percent of Romania's 22 million inhabitants, is rated in many opinion polls as the most trusted institution in the country.

Vitalie Danciu, the superior of a nearby monastery at Golia, called the crucifixion "inexcusable," but a spokesman for the Orthodox patriarchate in Bucharest refused to condemn it.

"I don't know what this young woman did," Bogdan Teleanu said.

Terrorists, Torpedos, & Republican 'Muscle'

June 21, 2005 Venice, FL--The MadCowMorningNews recently learned exclusive new details about the gangland-style murder in Florida which figures so prominently in Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff’s rise to power.
The 'secret world' of Jack Abramoff being probed by investigators today has definite connections and unmistakable links to the one inhabited during their final year in the U.S. by Mohamed Atta and the other hijackers.

So as the scandal embroiling House Major Domo Tom Delay and Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff grows hotter, there may be new revelations about the 9.11 attack.

Less than a week before the 9.11 attack, for example, Atta and several other hijackers made a still-unexplained visit onboard one of Abramoff’s casino boats.

What does a scandal involving Indian casinos, gambling boat “cruises to nowhere” & pay-for-play government officials have to do with the story of 19 hijackers planning a mass murder in supposed isolation in Florida?

Buy Blue- your post above regarding the "golden fleece" retirement plan is part of a bogus email making the rounds from before the elections. It is completely wrong and filled with false information. Please see the correct info here:

, "All members of Congress pay Social Security taxes in the same amounts as they would if they were employed in the private sector at the same salary level."

The debunking speculates that the reason for the confusion is that prior to 1983, federal employees (meaning everyone who works for the government, from janitors to legistlators) were covered by a pension plan that was independent of Social Security, and which didn't mandate that they pay into that plan. Congress changed all that though, and since 1984 they've paid into Social Security, and had a pension plan that takes that program into account.

And that sweet pension deal? It's definitely nice ... but not quite so nice as the e-mail's outraged author says. The Senate's debunking spells out how many years you have to serve (and how old you need to be) in order to be eligible for a pension, but the bottom line is summed up nicely here:

"As of October 1, 2000, the average annual pension for members of Congress who have retired under CSRS is $52,464, and $46,932 for retirees under FERS-only or both FERS/CSRS."

This page does not go into whether or not members of congress have to contribute to their pensions, but it does link to the "CRS Report for Congress" (PDF), which has this to say regarding the subject of contributions:

Congressional pensions, like those of other federal employees, are financed through a combination of employee and employer contributions. All members pay Social Security payroll taxes equal to 6.2% of the Social Security taxable wage base ($90,000 in 2005). Members covered by FERS also pay 1.3% of full salary to the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund. Members covered by CSRS Offset pay 1.8% of the first $90,000 of salary, and 8.0% of salary above this amount, into the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund.

As to the Plame matter it is thought that the testimony sought by Fitzgerald from Cooper & Miller has to do with obstruction of justice charges that Fitzgerald is trying to prove in addition to discovering who revealed her name.

It is also thought that Vakula has sung like a canary, though some believe he is also open to possible obstruction charges.

Now mine is not always a popular opinion regarding the Plame case and journalists but I am outraged not only at the perpertraitor of the crime but also at journalists themselves and the media they serve. This is not and never been a case of the journalists protecting a whistleblower, it is one where the journalists have been protecting the person(s) who engaged in and committed this crime. The journalists, including Cooper and Miller have, in my opinion, become co-conspirators. And in their defense they have twisted and maipulated the facts, along with the rest of the media and, the people who don't want this case solved or prosecuted. Judy Miller is the neocon's sweetheart who shimmied right up to their trough and helped them make the case for a fake war that we were lied into. Let's not forget the aluminum tubes story she so aptly dished up time and again. Finally, journalists do not, in law, have all the latitude they've been claimimg. It has always been the law that they are required to give testimony before a grand jury, and they are not above the law, especially when they shield criminals.

"..."I don't know what this young woman did," Bogdan Teleanu said."

It's not that I hate Christians. In fact, I see the beauty and love in the words of Jesus. I am just totally terrified of the Church. I can still not enter a church. It is just too painful.

I know that there are good Christians. My aunt is evangelical, yet she is such a good person. But, I know that so many more Christians would like to see me dead, in a concentration camp, or some re-education camp ... ala Chairman Mao or comrade Stalin.

If you think that my reaction is over the top, I remember a chrsitian, fundamentalist neigbor of mine who thought all gay men were pedophiles, and he believed gays should be locked up. He really believed this!!! I am fighting hard right now the urge to stereotype all christians. I have been stereotyped so much myself that I realize how hurtful it is. I would not want of wish to do that to another. Stereotyping of all christians would be doing what they do to us. I'm trying to take the high ground.

Lately, I have been in survival mode. With what is going on in the country, I may have to pay a "coyote" to take me to Mexico. I'm serious. My fear is that when the fundies start losing power in the next elections is when they will start to get violent and start bombing gay bars and killing more gay men. Especially when a group thinks they have God on their side. That makes for a dangerous combination.

Posted by: Travieso on June 21, 2005 01:14 AM

Travieso, is would be more difficult if they retain or gain more power.

Just live, and be yourself. Stay in the now. If you should feel the need to leave the country, something european might be better. Mexico is not exactly enlightened.

Travieso,

My heart hurts for you! Indeed, how can there be so much hate in folks who call themselves Christians. They are not emulating Jesus of Nazareth as portrayed in their liturgy. Fear breeds hate. That is why they hate... they have been manipulated to fear.

So, be not afraid, Travieso. Surround yourself with kind, loving people. Move to a Blue state, if you are not in one. Above all, do not give up your personal power to fear. Light to you. Namaste

Here in NYC today my local park (Washington Square Park, a block from where I live) was OVERRUN today with white, teenage Christians handing out fliers and "spreading the word".

So, as I'm walking my dog Cinnamon, this group of 4 or 5 of them decides to educate me about God and the scriptures and such. After being polite and telling them "no, thank you", they continue to follow me and ask me if I want to go to Hell when I die, etc and so on. After about 5 minutes of this, I finally turn on them and ask what they think of war. "We don't like it", they answer. "Well, then," I ask, "how do you reconcile your Christian beliefs with the fact that, historically, more wars were started and more people were killed in the name of God than any other reason?" They just gave me these blank looks. "And, by the way," I said "I'm gay, I'm a Democrat and believe in many Gods, not just a white Christian one ... so back off!"

Needless to say, they turned tail and ran. And my respect for those of you who live in FundieLand increased by about 10-fold!

An hour or so later, I had to pass through the Park on the way to a meeting and they were "performing" Christian rock songs ... horribly out-of-tune and with an astonishing, almost embarrassing lack of rhythm. I almost felt sorry for them ... almost. Others in the crowd were doubled over with laughter. Had I the time, I would have rolled on the cement with them.

I love New York City.

Thank you guys so much for the wonderful advice. I live in Texas, but very gay friendly Austin. But, my feeling is that this maybe a national phenomena, no? Much like Jonathon's story (thinks for the funny story Jonathon).

Jo, I agree. I'm trying more and more to use that fear and negative feelings in me to turn them towards a positive outlet. I've been volunteering for local progressive causes.

I know we are not alone. I know that we all are experiencing those same feelings,because we don't agree and buy into the whole mainstream religion "thing".... as women, minorities, gays, liberals, and even straight white men who fight against the racism, sexism, and homophobia.

Thank you again guys. Lots of love and peace to you all.

Pat QOP,
I'd like to add my whitest light to the white light being sent by all in this group. I do not know where we get the strength to bear, but we do get it...and I believe your guardian angels and Eric's will surround your hearts with strength.

Most assuredly they will...along with us.

WASHINGTON – Senate Democrats blocked John Bolton's confirmation as U.N. ambassador for the second time Monday and President Bush left open the possibility of bypassing lawmakers and appointing the tough-talking former State Department official on his own.
The vote was 54-38, six shy of the total needed to force a final vote on Bolton, and represented an erosion in support from last month's failed Republican effort. Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, who voted in May to advance the nomination, switched positions and urged Bush to consider another candidate.

The setback left Bush facing stark choices – most of which could leave him appearing weak at a time he is facing sagging poll numbers and fighting lame-duck status six months into his final term.

Only three Democrats sided with the White House and voted to end debate on the nomination. One of them, Sen. Ben Nelson, D-Neb., asked whether Bush should exercise his power to give Bolton a temporary appointment without confirmation, said, "I would prefer it not happen, but it is the president's prerogative."

Hey, with Democrats like Ben Nelson, Bush doesn't need Republicans, does he?

Jo...thanks for the paint-a-thon warning! I actually have to do some art tomorrow for a Tshirt for the festa italiana di san mateo street fair, which I tend to do most every year.

Jo, there is one night of the year when I seem to have unbounded energy, and it is almost always the weekend of labor day....the interesting thing is, that would have been my concerption weekend! haahahahahah and maybe yours too!

A well meaning Aries friend stopped by this evening, who had visited him in the hospital yesterday, and her intuition told her that she should come instruct me, how to make amends, and make sure I was prepared for the reality of the situation!
( She is dating the son of an onchologist! and had all the details for me! ) { in living color!} Eric is resolved to beat this, so at this point we go with miracles, until further notice!!!
What ever happened to offering to help with the dishes or other pragmatic things!
That's what I really needed!

Yes, thanks to the Orwellian named "New Freedom Initiative," passed by Congress last year, American kids, aged 3 to 18, can be evaluated at school by state-sponsored "advocates" to see if they are mental cases. If they're evaluated as such, they'll be forced to take drugs, possibly without parental consent.

Posted by: Pat QOP on June 21, 2005 05:30 AM

Pat QOP, I have to say that you and Eric are so brave and have so much courage. Remember the switchword for miracles: Divine, and for health: Be.

Try to create a good & loving atmosphere when you're with him (I'm sure you already do that) with favorite and fun foods (sneak them in?) and upbeat funny dvds and stories becauses that's good for healing. Another suggestion is to play meditation tapes and music. One of my favorite pieces of meditative music is Canyon Suite by Carlos Navaro (I think I have the last name correct; the title is right at any rate). He's a Southwest Indian and that CD is a particularly beautiful recording of him playing his flute at the grand canyon. It is SO relaxing, it quiets you right down.

You have all of the support that I can muster for Eric's perfect health and for peace of mind and strength for the two of you. Let's all of us picture Eric in perfect health.

Travesio and Jonathan, you both have a lot of courage, too.

Jonathan,
Might have been the same young men I met on the subway last week.
Wonder what's going on? Coming back from teaching parents in Brownsville, a inner city neighborhood in Brooklyn the pink boyz entered the train with an older male chaperone. They handed out leaflets that looked like fake dollar bills. I asked what it was and when he said it contained gospel I said get it away from me and said I believe in the Goddess. He asked why. I said it was real for me. I asked him why he chose the gopsels. He said it was real for him. I said, 'ok, but I don't shove my beliefs in your face'. Said it loud. He backed off afraid. I had to bite my tongue to not say why haven't you enlisted for that gospel?

Another dude, he was alone, was screaming about Jesus on the subway last week. I just finished teaching my workshop at an elementary in the Village and it was only 10 am. One guy started yelling, "Turn it off, it's too early in the morning for this bs'. When I got up to leave I asked the preacher loudly, 'who would Jesus scream at"?

PQ,

Of course it depends on the type, but it is my understanding that lung cancers are relatively easy to cure.

I've seen this so much with North Node Scorpios. Crisis is so much a part of their lives. Extremes, big losses, big gains. They do so well with it. They are equipped to handle exactly this kind of experience. And there is a huge silver lining in all of this for you types. NN Scorps know all about healing and the sicknesses that are part of the human condition. They have to be encountered so we learn as many healing techniques as we can. Scorpios I have known meet these situations with understanding and a courage that frankly, astounds me. They are ready. My sister is a Sun in Scorpio with NN there, and I've seen amazing things.
When pain arrives, there is no better person than a good Scorpio to be there.

Since Jupiter will be crossing your NN, and Saturn will be squaring with Neptune, I would think this experience will unlock something hidden in you. And maybe unleash creativity.

Deep gut crying, laughing, talking, etc. are always part of it. Those visceral expressions that sometimes bring us life.

You certainly are not alone. Nor are we. We are lucky to be included in your experience. To be reminded to be grateful for the good things we have. And to feel the pull toward life. At the same time remembering that this experience is Eric's, and he will decide.

Posted by: jm on June 21, 2005 07:49 AM

Oh, and PQ, I noticed how pulled down you've been at times lately as if you knew something was up. Now that you know what it is you can figure out what to do. That must be a relief, and now the healing begins. Now hope can accompany the anxiety.

Oh how I love to witness a real struggle toward healing in the midst of all this sickness and breakdown in our society.

Jun 21, 2005 — LONDON (Reuters) - Up to 21,000 druids, spiritualists and revelers gathered at Stonehenge early on Tuesday with many beating drums and playing pipes to celebrate the annual summer solstice.

A spokeswoman for English Heritage said they had witnessed a "fantastic sunrise" and enjoyed a great atmosphere at the start of the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere.

Cheers rang out across Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire as the sun rose at 4:58 a.m. (0358 GMT).

Much support from the Universer to you PQOP. I don't normally post,however I wanted to let you know that your optimism for Eric will help him survive. My mom was diagnosed with stage 3B lung cancer that had spread to her lungs at age 66. She was given a 3-6mo prognosis. We didn't tell her; I simply brought her home to live with me. She is still alive despite the 'prognosis'. She is doing relatively well despite terrible complications as a result of 'treatments'. The most help she has received has been from loving family and complememtary medicine such as vitamin drips and lots of purified foods and water. She still has cancer but is living with it as a chronic condition with quality of life. Best wishes for Eric's healing.

PatQOP, i really meditated on sending your son healing energy yesterday. I pictured that he was bathed in white healing light and that the cancer was removed. I hope this helps.

Everyone, thank you so much for the concern. It was just that a friend of mine of 20 years just got fired for being gay at his job. It was pretty obvious that was the reason. It didn't happen here in Austin, but in South Texas where the catholic church controls everything. Anyway, it really hit me and it slapped some reality into me. However, a high-powered labor lawyer out of Houston is taking his case, so there is hope.

I must say, that I am not alone. There are more people in this country who are suffering from this regime then not. I feel that we all are...women, minorities, poor whites(who are often demonized as lazy trailor trash), and liberals who don't buy into the whole "hate speech" thing. I really believe this. I feel that I need to turn this energy more to political and social action. We at AW are not alone. I wish you all such great blessings, love, and hope.

Gov't. Collected Airline Passenger Data

The federal agency in charge of aviation security collected extensive personal information about airline passengers even though Congress forbade it and officials said they wouldn't do it, according to documents obtained Monday by The Associated Press.

The Transportation Security Administration bought and is storing details about U.S. citizens who flew on commercial airlines in June 2004 as part of a test of a terrorist screening program called Secure Flight, the documents indicate.

Okay, I just have to tell you guys that it's days like this, wonderful glorious days of summer, that I feel George W. Bush and his fascist cohorts can't touch me and mine!

Sure I live in a Red state... but I also live in a small town in a South... which has its positive aspects. This particular town has a wonderful recreational department, lots of parks and a huge park with bike paths and skate board ramps and tons of tennis courts... and a GREAT farmers market... I take the boys at least three times a week... today we got there after our outing at the park with our bikes and a trip to the library... there was a quick heavy summer shower, and I had to run into the shed in the downpour... but fresh veggies are worth it! local tomatoes were in! and the Silver Queen corn (sweetest in the world)! and so much more... we came home, put a pot of water on to boil and chowed down! I do wish I could serve you all! The sweet lady I buy the corn from every year never gives a dozen when I ask for one --- I always get home to find extra! this time five extra! And the grandpa who supplies the collard greens always gives me free squash... so I take in paper and plastic bags for them... and gardenias, of course.

Now the sun is out again... and I'm thinking of all the reasons why I love this part of the world. Sure there are so folks who can't think straight, but there are countless others who are loving and sharing...

So, George W. Bush and his regime will never succeed... there's too much love in this country, even in the Red States... y'all, we just have to stand up to 'em...

Anyway, I wanted to share the joy! It's a glorious day...

Posted by: Jo on June 21, 2005 07:43 PM

Lions rescued kidnapped girl, say police

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia - Police say three lions rescued a 12-year-old
girl kidnapped by men who wanted to force her into marriage, chasing off
her abductors and guarding her until police and relatives tracked her
down in a remote corner of Ethiopia.

The men had held the girl for seven days, repeatedly beating her, before
the lions chased them away and guarded her for half a day before her
family and police found her, Sergeant Wondimu Wedajo said Tuesday by
telephone from the provincial capital of Bita Genet, about 560km west of
the capital, Addis Ababa.

"They stood guard until we found her and then they just left her like a
gift and went back into the forest," Wondimu said, adding he did not
know whether the lions were male or female.

'A young girl whimpering could be mistaken for the mewing sound from a
lion cub'
News of the June 9 rescue was slow to filter out from Kefa Zone in
south-western Ethiopia.

"If the lions had not come to her rescue then it could have been much
worse. Often these young girls are raped and severely beaten to force
them to accept the marriage," he said.

"Everyone in thinks this is some kind of miracle, because normally the
lions would attack people," Wondimu said.

Stuart Williams, a wildlife expert with the rural development ministry,
said that it was likely that the young girl was saved because she was
crying from the trauma of her attack.

"A young girl whimpering could be mistaken for the mewing sound from a
lion cub, which in turn could explain why they (the lions) didn't eat
her," Williams said. "Otherwise they probably would have done."

The girl, the youngest of four brothers and sisters, was "shocked and
terrified" and had to be treated for the cuts from her beatings, Wondimu
said.

He said that police had caught four of the men, but were still looking
for three others.

In Ethiopia, kidnapping has long been part of the marriage custom, a
tradition of sorrow and violence whose origins are murky.

The United Nations estimates that more than 70 percent of marriages in
Ethiopia are by abduction, practiced in rural areas where the majority
of the country's 71 million people live.

Ethiopia's lions, famous for their large black manes, are the country's
national symbol and adorn statues and the local currency. Former emperor
Haile Selassie kept a pride in the royal palace in Addis Ababa.

Despite their integral place in Ethiopia culture, their numbers have
been falling, according to experts, as farmers encroach on bush land.

Hunters also kill the animals for their skins, which can fetch $1 000
(about R6 000), despite a recent crackdown against illegal animal
trading across the country. Williams said that at most only 1 000
Ethiopian lions remain in the wild. -

FBI & 9/11

June 21, 2005
By Sibel Edmonds

From: http://www.justacitizen.org/articles_documents/FBI%20&%20911.htm

(After certain new bits of unexamined information Sibel has, she concludes by writing):

".... If Counterintelligence receives information that contains money laundering, illegal arms sale, and illegal drug activities, directly linked to terrorist activities; and if that information involves certain nations, certain semi- legit organizations, and ties to certain lucrative or political relations in this country, then, that information is not shared with Counterterrorism, regardless of the possible severe consequences.

In certain cases, frustrated FBI agents cited ‘direct pressure by the State Department,’ and in other cases ‘sensitive diplomatic relations’ is cited. I provided the Department of Justice Inspector General and the 9/11 Commission with detailed and specific information and evidence regarding this issue, and the names of other witnesses willing to corroborate this, and the names of certain U.S. officials involved in these transactions and activities.

Now, after almost 4 years, we get to hear new bits & pieces: FBI & Midhar’s Case; FBI & Abdel-Hafiz Case; FBI & Saudi planes leaving just days after 9/11 without having the passengers questioned; FBI & Youssef Case; and the list goes on.

Today, after nearly four years since 9/11, the American people still do not know that thousands of lives can be jeopardized under the unspoken policy of ‘protecting certain foreign business relations.’ The victims' family members still do not realize that information and answers they have sought relentlessly for almost 4 years has been blocked due to the unspoken decisions made and disguised under ‘safeguarding certain diplomatic relations.’

Where is the so-called congressional oversight? Why the 9/11 Commission intentionally omitted this info; although they’ve had it all along? Where is accountability?" -- Sibel Edmonds

Dust off the Nuremberg Files...

Dust off the Nuremberg Files

By Anwaar Hussain

06/20/05 - - At Nuremberg, in early October 1945, the four prosecuting nations -- the United States, Great Britain, France and Russia -- issued an indictment against 24 men and six organizations of the Nazi Germany. Of that 24 only 21 eventually sat down in the trial. The individual defendants were charged not only with the systematic murder of millions of people, but also with planning and carrying out the war in Europe. Twelve Nazi officials were sentenced to be hanged, three sentenced to life in prison, four were given prison sentences of 10-20 years, and the rest were acquitted.

Presently, the ongoing American and British slaughter of thousands of Iraqi and Afghan civilians constitutes a blatant war crime. Average legal skills should be able to prove that a similar case for the prosecution against the current coalition leaders can easily be constructed on comparable lines.

In September 2004, the incumbent UN Chief Kofi Annan made a very clear statement. Talking to BBC Annan said "the US-led invasion of Iraq was an illegal act that contravened the UN charter." Being the UN Chief, and the custodian of International law, he should have known what he was talking about.

Don't know you, but you've been on my mind, all good thoughts.

Janet

Posted by: Janet on June 21, 2005 11:46 PM

Pat QofP,

None of us knows 'what' heals... there are alternative healing methods, that is alternative to Western Medicine... in addition to the radiation treatments, you might suggest some to Eric. Success would depend I think on his participation... his level of belief. There is a simple Yogi exercise (bhakti would know more about this than I)... relax, center one's focus, center one's light on the afflicted area... visualize healing... I have had success with this one.

Additionally, there are people who are gifted with the touch of healing... perhaps you know someone with this gift in your community?

In 1979 I was badly beaten... the neurologist took x-rays of my spine... declared I had three crushed vertebrae as a result of the blows to my back... a friend of mine suggested I see a psychic who was reputed to have healing abilities. I saw him, told him nothing of my problem... he sat me in a chair and told me that he was going to touch the top of my head and I would feel something... what I felt was an electrical shock through my body... nothing like it before or since... I was not able to drive when I went in to see this person... the pain was so excrutiating... afterwards, I felt better and within three weeks returned to the neurologist for further tests. the 2nd set of x-rays revealed no damage, no crushed vertabrae. The neurologist said to me "during my career I have encountered one or two similar cases, where I had no explanation for what transpired. I can only tell you that you have rec'd a miracle, be grateful for it, and don't wonder 'how'..."

These words are not meant to give you any kind of false hope, but are intended to convey the message that many avenues are available if one is open to them.

Light to Eric, may he find his greatest and highest good. And may you too receive the light you need to see you through the weeks and months to come. Namaste

that psychic you visited would be a literal God-send for a dear friend of mine. I hope she has someone brought into her life like you had.

On another note, all you AWers: I need a little astro-advice (and I don't ever remember doing this, so please bear with me).

I have a very, very, very important business call to make. Is it better to do so on the day of the Summer Solstice or on the day of the Full Moon?

Any thoughts would be welcome.

Blair dossier on Iraq is delayed indefinitely

The long-awaited dossier Tony Blair has promised would justify his support for a US-led military offensive on Iraq is being delayed indefinitely by an unresolved dispute at the highest levels of government.

Number 10 is thought to have encountered resistance to the plan among senior Whitehall officials, some ministers, and the secret intelligence service MI6.

Intelligence officials believe Downing Street and sectors of the Foreign Office acted precipitately by letting it be known that such a dossier was in the pipeline before Easter and before a final draft had been fully cleared through the internal Whitehall machinery.

Senior defence sources said there were debates within government on how much could be included in such a document without revealing sensitive information or compromising intelligence sources.

A further issue, the sources said, was whether the dossier should include other countries thought to be developing weapons of mass destruction.

The Foreign Office confirmed that the dossier no longer had a firm publication date, and that a final draft has still to be agreed. It would be released "when we judge that the time is right," it said

However, a Whitehall insider said the "unresolved dispute" was further complicated by the incomplete intelligence picture drawn up on Iraq's nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare capability and intentions.

While some intelligence suggests Mr Saddam has been focusing on the development of biological and chemical agents, and a military capability to strike at Israel, Iraq has succeeded in keeping secret the nature and scope of its military programme. "There was concern that by publishing the dossier we would expose what we did not know as much as what we did and that in itself could compromise ongoing intelligence gathering," one source said.

British officials believe Mr Saddam has managed to protect his plans from intrusion by signals and satellite intelligence, forcing US and British intelligence to draw assumptions rather than certainties about his true capability.

In contrast to previous intelligence dossiers on al-Qaeda and the Diamonds-for-Arms trade deliberately used over the last two years by the Blair government to justify policy initiatives, the information on Iraq was judged by some Whitehall officials as insufficient to convince critics within the Labour party that the full-scale offensive against Iraq was justified.

There is for example no firm evidence linking Iraq to al-Qaeda, or as a supplier of chemical, nuclear or biological material to associated terrorists groups as claimed by some members of the US administration.

Hmmm.

Jonathon,
I think it depends on the nature of the call. They tell us not to plant seeds on the full moon, or anywhere close to it. A full moon represents the end of a cycle, I think. Further, I'm not sure where your Saturn is. Is your Saturn in the 9th Sqr the full Moon transiting the 6th?

Posted by: Beasley on June 22, 2005 02:57 AM

Beasley,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, my Saturn is in the 9th at 24 Aries with the Tr. Moon moving through the 6th. I just wasn't sure if the Full Moon was a time to begin things or to end things. I'm still learning that stuff.

Again, thanks for answering. :-)

Posted by: Jonathan on June 22, 2005 03:03 AM

Jonathan, I think the new moon is a great time to begin things. Some people do well on the full moon, but others don't.

US spy plane crashes in SW Asia
PQ

Posted by: Pat QOP on June 22, 2005 02:15 PM

From looking at charts of the Rez, Laura, the twins, Cheney, Rice, and some mundane charts, I believe this summer is the beginning of the end for this administration. However I think the end will come in the summer of 2006, most likely August or early September.

I am leaning towards a resignation or an attempt at one. But I do not believe that resigning from office would protect someone from punishment for comission of a high crime. I believe it would take a Presidential pardon to stop such proceedings.

For astrologers on the list who may wish to take a look and expand on the topic, Bush's chart resonates with the resignation chart for Nixon.

The right ascension of Bush's Sun is 104d 58m, the right ascension of Resignation Saturn was 104d 28m. The right ascension of Resignation Sun was 139d 07m. It will be transited by Saturn on August 19 of 2006, the precession corrected position will be transited on August 23, 2006.

There are many dates to choose from during July and August of 2006 but at this time it looks like a decision or action regarding resignation may take place on September 1, 2006.

Please excuse the lack of a fuller post but it took me a week to get enough energy to post this much.

This an excellent site. My thanks Sally, to all who post the lead threads and to all who respond to them.

Pat, I will include you and your son in my prayers to the powers that be.

"When there's only one race and thats mankind
Then we shall be free
We shall be free
We shall be free"

quote from Garth Brooks' lyrics in Sally's article above---

Juan Cole is always interesting, this a.m. no exception:

"... And, Palestinian and Jewish males tend to have similar markers in their Y chromosomes. I just saw someone question Palestinian descent from the ancient peoples of Palestine. But we are all descended from the Moabites, and Palestinians and Jews are more likely to have the traces of that descent in their mitochondria and Y chromosomes than the rest of us (we're all cousins of a sort, but they are closer to being first cousins).

(Geneticists focus on the Y chromosome and the mitochondria because they do not divide in each generation and so do not change very quickly, allowing comparisons among populations long separated. A lot of us are afraid that this distinction will be lost on the general public and that they will take mitochondria or Y chromosomes as markers of "race." All human beings are descended from most people who lived 50 generations ago, it is just that we may by now only have an infinitesimal genetic heritage from some of them. There are statistical aggregations of genes, just because some lineages are more likely to intermarry, but there are no "races" in the Romantic European sense of pure bloodlines. Y chromosomes and mitochondria are a tiny, tiny part of the human genome, and they just accidentally freeze a certain narrow kind of ancestry; they tell relatively little of the whole story. The whole story, of course, is that we all go back to a common origin in South Africa only about 100,000 years ago; we're a very young species and haven't had time to differentiate much except with regard to stupid little things like amount of melanin in our skin.)"

Fanning the Flames of Impeachment:

June 21, 2005—With the Downing Street Minutes that unmask his lies, with his wars in Afghanistan and Iraq lost, with his poll numbers tumbling, with Republicans jumping ship, with the economy tanking and with parents shielding their children from his military recruiters, why is George W. Bush still smiling, swaggering and acting like the dictator he hopes to become?

The friction from the grinding wheels of unintended consequences have lit a fire, the flames of which need to be fanned until they consume Bush, his whole administration, and the worthless whores and pimps in Congress.

Bush spurned secret 2002 N. Korea overture-report

North Korean leader Kim Jong-il attempted to engage President Bush directly on the nuclear weapons issue three years ago but the administration spurned the overture, two American experts on Asia said on Wednesday.

Writing in the Washington Post, former U.S. ambassador to South Korea Donald Gregg and former journalist Don Oberdorfer expressed concern that Kim's November 2002 initiative was never pursued and urged Bush to respond positively to his current overture, made last week.

When Bush took office in 2001, U.S. officials estimated Pyongyang had fuel for one or two nuclear weapons. Now, that estimate is up to at least half a dozen and, the authors said, "many believe their claim to have fabricated the weapons themselves."

Downing Street Is For Liars
Why isn't the media screaming about the latest proofs of Bush's war scams? Don't you know?

Let's just say it outright: Of course Bush deserves to be impeached. But of course Bush will not be impeached, because impeachment requires a massive federal investigation and an act of Congress and the support of countless senators and representatives, and right now the GOP controls Congress with a little iron penis, and therefore any sort of uprising or scandal or suggestion of punishment gets immediately slammed down or scoffed away or buried under an avalanche of shrugs and yawns and neoconservative smugness. Isn't that right, Mr. Gannon? Mr. DeLay? Abu Ghraib? Gitmo? Saddam? Et al.

BushCo survived the illegal sanctioning of inhumane torture. They survived a gay male prostitute acting as a journalist. They survived Enron and Diebold and the rigging of the first election and they will survive Downing Street simply because all the people who should be on the attack about these atrocities all work for the guys who committed them.

So then, the question is not merely when will the stack of lies, of abuses become so high, so unstable, so inexcusable that the entire nation finally takes notice and the whole house of cards comes crashing to the ground in a big nasty soul-jarring spirit-cleansing patriotism-redefining whoomp and smothers the whole lot of them, but rather, can it be soon enough?

And to that question, we all know the answer.

Pat QOP and Eric---
Sending you white light in your time of need.... but something tells me Eric will beat this and be fine in due time.

Travieso and others--
the Southern Baps are convening here this week in Nashville and some of my gay friends are asking me to hide them (lol), but I'm helping myself and them cope (with the SoB's planned evangelicizing around here) with lots of humor....this morning I referred to them as the Southern Inquisition....hopefully I'll get to throw them a few jabs Bhakti-style this week should I encounter them....

And last, for all, a funny---hope this isn't a retread, but if so, read and laugh again:

OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE NEW CALIFORNIA BLUE STATES NATION!

Dear Red States

We are ticked off at the way you have treated California, and we have decided we are leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we are taking the other Blue States with us.

In case you are not aware, that includes Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country of New California.

To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get Elliot Spitzer. You get Ken Lay.

We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand. We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss.

We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama.

We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, and you get to make the red states pay their fair share.

Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms.

Please be aware that Nuevo California will be pro-choice and anti-war, and we are going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they are apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they do not care if you do not show pictures of their children's caskets coming home.

We do wish you success in Iraq, and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we are not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire.

With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapples and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the US low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools, plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.

With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all US mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University,
Clemson and the University of Georgia.

We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.

Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless we are discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent believe that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals than we lefties.

By the way, we are taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico.
Sincerely,
Author Unknown in New California.

namaste all, and white light to Pat QOP/Eric plus everyone in need elsewhere.....

Garry,

Thanks for the support to your gay friends. I really believe that most americans could care less about who I sleep with. It's just that the fundamentalists have gained so much power and influence on a national level that I feel it's impossible to escape - blue state or red state. When I visited by friends in San Diego, I was shocked at all the Bush stickers...more then Austin!!! I'm beginning to realize that it's less a Blue/red state idea then it is a lump of Purple precincts.

For example, Austin in very blue while the town north of us is very red. Conservatives live with other conservatives and liberals live with other liberals. It's almost tribal. You would think that all of California was blue, however, there are huge geographical areas of red (which are growing and that is why the repubs make take California). Likewise, in Houston, on the border, inner-city Dallas, San Antonio, and Austin there are densely populated areas of blue precincts(which are growing). This is the reason that the repubs in the state house of representatives re-districted and gerrymandered this state to death. With the growing hispanic and non-white populations in the cities, Austin becoming a haven for gays and lesbians, and a larger then normal population of more liberal-leaning youth, democraphers expect TExas to be a blue state again in 10 to 15 years. The conservative know that, so they gerrymandered the state to keep democratic successes at a minimum.

But, after traveling this country, I just feel that it doesn't matter what state you live until we deal with this administrations warm and cozy relationship with these fundamentalists groups that are wealthy and bolder then ever. Like the medical marijuana fiasco, the conservatives on the national level don't care what we and the states think. They can still have the cops arrest 80 year old grandmothers who smoke pot to relieve their glacouma.

What do you think? Garry, you are truly inlightened. You go!!!

Reporters Plead Their Case to Supreme Court

Posted by: Pat C on June 22, 2005 05:39 PM

Travieso-
Once again, you're right on.
I know that "the OC" is one of the whitest most Repub. places on Earth and how convenient is it that it's home to that other fantasy world, Disneyland? And I've longed to visit Austin TX forever just because of it's rep as a music & arts town(nevermind that it's full of artists and other LIBERALS!!!).
But I think you hit the heart of the issue when you mentioned the gerrymandering that was committed in TX--aren't they currently trying to do that nonsense in CA too? That kind of political BS breaks my heart. I can at least feel a tiny bit more secure knowing that my county of residence here in Nashville(Davidson county, where Nashville is located) went BLUE in 04, even though this is a VERY RED(neck) state....I'm sure you can see a parallel to your (deservedly) beloved Austin in big ol' RED Texas, no?

namaste and tolerance/respect for diversity to all.....
PS: Y'all pardon me for possibly resorting to stereotypes, but the reason I like gay (or any other kind of people) is that they're just so damn DELIGHTFUL......alive, creative, happy and FREE-SPIRITED!!! Blessings to all here, this is a wonderful home for us in cyberspace......

Posted by: Garry on June 22, 2005 05:54 PM

I have truly learned not to stereotype anyone. I have been suprised at how the stereotypes I have kept about people from different areas of the world are not always correct. A good example is a friend of mine from Nebraska who has had the same partner for 15 years. You would think that his mother, a very typical looking mid-west Baptist lady, would be so against his relationship. However, when I met her, she was the kindest woman who treated her son's partner like family!!! It was so refreshing and sweet.

Garry, I must say that I really appreciate straight men who befriend gay men. Realy, it will be liberal, open-minded straight people who will change the homophobia in this country. I really believe that.

Posted by: Travieso on June 22, 2005 06:01 PM

Great exchange, Travieso and Garry. And, Jo, the article you posted is SO important, I wish it would receive one-half the exposure as "Creationism." For people to know that there is NO SUCH THING as pure blood lines and that genetics can trace us all back to one source is one of the most important uses of science that I can think of. Of course, the Israelis and Palestinians are related. There was intermarriage all along, per the stories in the Bible, and they have the same customs and use the same words!!!! It's really just a case of the Hatfields and McCoys and the Montegues and (I forget the name of the other family), or the Serbs vs. the Dalmatians and Croatians. Human beings are SO stupid!!! I even find twinges of competition and jealousy in myself (CANCEL, CANCEL). It's a strong human urge, isn't, related to comparing, blaming, scapegoating.

I feel that the sooner ETs make their presence felt, the sooner many in the world will be able to look at the BIG PICTURE and not their local, petty quarrels.

So, who knows how to speak Moab here?

And, Bob, of course we are so hoping and praying this will come to pass. It does seem there are great obstacles to it happening but if enough evidence comes out, the Republicans will have to bite the bullet.

Love to all, and especially Eric and POQ.
