I've seen this before, it was the late 1980s-I guess the saying is true: what a person does in the past is an indicator of what they'll do in the future. I only vaguely remember talk of $500 hammers the Pentagon bought from their buddies with the tax-payers' money; same men got back into government & suddenly "greed is good" was broadly heard everywhere, like that character from the film "Wallstreet".
Deficits as far as the eye can see, huge ballooning costs blindly ok'd to 'defense', as if throwing money wildly & carelessly around makes you 'tough on terror'. That idiot * wars money-hole will never get beyond pipe-dream phase, Atari's Missile Command is as close as they'll ever come, it's real(video game), maybe Poland will fall for this swindle, who knows? It's just like the end of the 80s again, even with the crazy rumor-mongoring about the 'dangers' of a Democratic President. Horse apples!
"The Bush administration has informed Congress that it is bypassing a law..." "....because it
infringed on the president’s powers...." from the New York Times Oct 25th.
"A parallel new Bush doctrine is emerging...." "...this
one also casts international law aside by insisting that the United States
has an inherent right to cross international borders in "hot pursuit" of
anyone it doesn't like...." This sets a very dangerous precedent, I wonder what happens when China does what Bush does, when Russia does what Bush does. This is destroying respect for the rule of law entirely & its ultimate end-goal is the bully wins. This is how animals rule each other, by merely beating others into subjugation.http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2008/10/28
The response of the Bush Regime when Russia got into a skirmish with Georgia highlighted the catastrophic short-sightedness of Bush's circle; apparently his clique can do whatever they want but no one else can. They're the "in crowd"-untouchable, not answerable to anyone-certainly not to U.S. courts, thus they ignore subpoenas.
As if this were not bad enough we have this:
"The Government Accountability Office said 72 percent of
all foreign corporations and about 57 percent of U.S.
companies doing business in the United States paid no
federal income taxes for at least one year between 1998
and 2005."http://www.reuters.com/articlePrint?articleId=USN1249465620080812
The above is a major reason why America is short of funds for infrastructure, schools, state budgets, etc. So when an American fails to pay their taxes they get their homes taken-like Willie Nelson, but when businesses fail to pay what they owe-nothing happens to them. Bridges fall down, meals on wheels gets shut down, home health care nurses get fired-states don't have the money. what are the businesses going to do if that old meanie Uncle Sam insists they pay what they owe, outsource even more jobs?
So it's 'staycations' & workers at vacation spots are let go, local restaraunts are closing, people aren't able to buy much when practically everything is Made in China. Automalls are ghost-parking lots now.
Yet Scrooge business owners claim Americans don't want to work at manufacturing plants, don't want to make tennis shoes, or computers, or clothes, or bleeding-edge technology, that is where I believe most growth exists.
The Scrooge Media has reporters stand in front of empty houses & report on home foreclosures, but they don't talk with the people who were forced out of those homes, they don't want to show the human costs, they don't want viewers to identify with those people, they want viewers to see it from the Bankster's viewpoint.
I recommend buying from Thriftown in the Western States & similar shops elswhere. You may find safe vintage toys there that were Made in America. Scrape the seeds from bell peppers & tomatos & grow from those; freeze your harvests of corn, just like you buy at the supermarket it can be on-the-cob or just kernels, frozen peas, freeze chopped carrots. This mostly is supplemental for me, I'd have to grow a lot more next year to cut back on buying at the supermarket.
It is frustrating watching my nation being flushed down the toilet, there were backstops against this, I guess those in power just don't care.

http://wvgazette.com/News/२००८१०२५०५६० An independent study determined that ES&S touch-screen machines could be "compromised and modified without detection, conceivably occurring before, during or after an election," presenting "serious risks to election integrity।" In recent days, at least 14 voters from Jackson, Putnam, Berkeley, Ohio, Monongalia and Greenbrier counties have told The Charleston Gazette that ES&S machines switched their votes from Democratic to Republican candidates.
Greenhalgh worked for ES&S from July 1997 until May 2008। Greenhalgh said Friday, "I have nothing to do with ES&S now. I have not worked with them since May 30, 2008." His wife, Jane Greenhalgh, is now the top representative for ES&S in West Virginia, according to Deputy Secretary of State Sarah C. Bailey. Asked why he left, Greenhalgh said, "I have no comment whatsoever."
Asked whether his wife works for ES&S, Gary Greenhalgh said, "I have no idea." Asked why he did not know where his wife works, Greenhalgh said, "I am not going to answer any questions."

Told You So
"...the Bush Treasury Department's decision to redact key parts of private contracts that would tell the public how much taxpayer cash various law firms, accounting companies..."
"...it's acceptable for the government to hide the amounts that taxpayers will be forced to pay these well-connected execs and fat cats - and that this information will come out at some point in the future anyway..." It will never come out in the future, if they get away with it now it sets a precedent that reveals they NEVER have to tell how they stole taxpayers' money. They feel they are above the law & all their actions prove it-'I don't have to answer to you', this is the message they're sending.

Florilegium: Sovereignity
Sovereign: 1 a monarch or other supreme ruler; 2 a body of persons or a state having sovereignity. Middle English=soverain Old French=soverain Vulgar Latin=super+anus Eureka! Or perhaps Yreka! I have figured out why a small group of people have been attempting to destroy the sovereignity of democratically representative States/nations!
Anus=Uranus. I am just going to go over this quickly & may or may not bother with putting up the many links regarding signing statements putting himself above the law he is signing. But-I first noticed & noted it when JonBenet's parents "declined" to go to the police station for questioning, etc. I didn't think it was optional, to be honest. Later, Condi ignored a subpoena-she was too busy or something, then more who fancy themselves above the laws of the U.S.(as well as ALL other nations) also ignored subpoenas.
Thinking back to Bill Clinton & the absolute testeria the Neocons made about the President lying!!! I compared the vastly different styles of #42 & #43 & have found Hypocrisy Inc. I know, painfully obvious, tribal-based systems judge 1 guilty or innocent not by acts taken but by membership of tribe. You're either with the "in crowd" or you're out & therefore guilty. They never let reality interfere with their decisions, or at least they try not to let reality dictate to them-does reality even know who they are? These people feel what they say overrides reality.
Recently read an article that describes how difficult it is to get these kinds of people to see the unvarnished truth, i.e. something as simple as agreeing on whether it's night or day.
"There's No Arguing With Conservatives ... No, Seriously, Scientific Studies Prove It
Dan Sweeney" From the Washington Post article on the study, which came out on September 15th.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/14/AR2008091402375
They call it the 'backfire effect', if someone uses facts to try to prove a false view false the crazy clings like a barnicle to the fantasy twice as hard. This is all throughout America, I can't speak for other countries but I would expect it to spread with evangelism. Faith-based people are extremely vulnerable to this, it amounts to a contest of emotions, of who walks away feeling they won, never mind the facts, mission accomplished.
My father is one of these people & for him nothing after 1982 is real. He has what I call a recording or speel(don't know how to spell it but..)& he just starts when anything uncomfortable for him is said/written by me. He, like the Neocons, genuinely feels my facts are an attack on him & how he feels toward his made-up world. Any attempts to puncture his bubble is felt not as a rescue but as an attack.
It's the same only this is on a national/world scale. I can easily imagine a European making disparaging-but-true comments(unfortunately, wish it weren't true) & getting slagged by Americans. It's more prevalent among conservatives & rare among liberals, but I would probably be able to get at the lib's vulnerable spot-it's a gift.
So 'rendering' started under #42 & the trust slug can't resist open derision for rules, treaties, & laws. It's typical of those born to wealth-see F Scott Fitzgerald for some examples, also various gossip sites online & off for the outrageous pompousness of the rich & stupid. Stupid because they don't know 'how-to' yet insist on being in charge. See the Janissaries & how they fared http://www.mikeantonucci.com/janissaries.htm
http://www.allaboutturkey.com/yeniceri.htm http://lexicorient.com/e.o/janissaries.htm The way I see it was they became so 'elite' that wealthy mothers insisted their idiot sons be members & that was that, generally.
Signing statement links, apparently I cared enough to bother this time

7 Hills of Ancient Rome & Copycat Fish
First this http://ancienthistory.about.com/od/cityofrome/ss/7hillsofRome.htm
Of Early Rome:Cermalus Cispius Fagutal Oppius Palatium Sucusa Velia Aventinus (Aventine) Caelius (Caelian) Capitolium (Capitoline) Esquiliae (Esquiline) Palatium (Palatine) Quirinalis (Quirinal) Viminalis (Viminal)
This hill is where Remus chose to live. In historical times it was the home of the plebeans, who built a temple to Ceres in the 5th century BCE. It also had temples for Liber and Libera. Many of Rome's elite lived on this hill during the Roman Republic. This hill was the site of many of Rome's earliest fortresses. It was also the hill of the government. The temples of Jupiter Optimus Maximus, Juno Moneta, and Concord are located on this hill. This hill had a walled city on it since at least the 700s BCE. This hill is the hill of Romulus. In Classical times it was the hill where Rome's rich and powerful chose to live. Walled villages and tombs have been found here, and the people who lived in those villages seem to be dominant to their contemporaries since the 700s BCE. The temple of Magna Mater is located on the Palentine. It is on this hill that the Sabines once lived and built their city. Archaeological evidence supports habitation of this hill since at least the 8th century BCE through tomb and walled village excavations. This is the smallest of the Seven Great Hills, and was one of the last to be included inside the walls of Rome. From here http://www.musesrealm.net/rome/sevenhills.html
These Claymation-Creations make fake claims of victory over the Queen of Heaven; now I know why I had the urge to go to the Himalayas in the 1990s. I'm tired of getting this Queen's stuff 'forwarded' to me...The above demonstrates the theft by Fish of older concepts-they even insist on calling their Piscean Fish-God the 'Lamb of God', that title properly belongs to Aries/Mars, whose animals are the ram, the lamb, the rooster, the goose, etc.
Fish-your Age/Aeon ended in January 2001. This is becoming more evident by the minute; your slaves are going into hysterics, also testerics for the boys. Even Zeus could not rebel against this very old pattern, the Precession of the Equinoxes aka Astrotheology. I notice with amusement how Fish follow the trends: now they claim Jesus is Neo (he's actually the Matix, the mirage), Jesus as a vampire (like Lestat? Or Nicholai from Forever Knight?) Jesus as Rambo (well the 80s are 'in' right now...)
The Eternal War waged by the 12th House against the 1st House goes on. The Pioneering Spirit native to the 1st House continues, inventing surprising new things, new concepts, new directions.
I keep hearing from 12th House Religions about the 'evil of the material world'-classic Fish-claim. Let's take a look at WHAT the 1st House represents. who you are, what you'll become, the physical body-especially the face and head(this very likely is changing to 11th House associations), your approach to life, your personality; what kind of groups/clubs/societies/professional associations you belong to, how you interact with these groups, how these groups change you, creative vision, dreams, connections between the past and the future, sudden changes, philanthropy, misanthropy, foster children/orphans, step-children. Reality, limits, time chronos/cairos, science.
What is there that Bhuddists dislike? What is there that Christians dislike? Why are Christians suddenly becoming weird toward scientists? I know astrologers claim that the priests of Aquarius are supposed to be scientists but it doesn't look like that's happening currently. Muslims also seem to be having problems with science & scientists.
Now let's look at what flourishes in the 12th House:Getting lost in dreams/nightmares, confusion, secrets kept from ourselves, delusions, dangers both fake and real, secret enemies, clandestine activities, self-destruction, self-delusion, mirages, jails, asylums, institutions, confinement, madness, altered states.
So there you have it, take your pick, make your choice: 1st House or 12th-choose which side.
