Whatever candidates the Democrats and Republicans run for President will be totally controlled puppets of the globalist elite. The rhetoric might be slightly different, but the end-agenda will be the same (that agenda being a one-world totalitarian government with a one-world enforced religion, which the globalist elite call the New World Order).

Reuters publicly acknowledges that the Bilderberg group of European royalty and international central bankers groomed Bill Clinton and Tony Blair for the U.S. Presidency and British Prime Ministry, respectively:

"Secretive Bilderberg group to meet in Sweden," Peter Starck, Reuters, May 23, 2001:

http://www.propagandamatrix.com/reuters_bilderberg.html

Although the Clintons and the Bushes are long-time close family friends going back even before their drug-running operation in Mena, Arkansas. And John Kerry and Bushes Sr. and Jr. are all Bonesmen in the occult sociey of the Brotherhood of Death (a.k.a. the Order of Skull & Bones at Yale), of which occult society was instrumental in the funding of Hitler and the Nazis. Bonesman Prescott Bush (Bush, Sr.'s father) had one of his banks and a number of his companies seized in 1942 under the Trading with the Enemy Act for his financing of the Nazis even during wartime. It's also interesting to note that the skull and bones symbol used by the Brotherhood of Death is the same symbol worn on the Nazi SS uniform.

And with the black-box electronic voting, the ruling elite can simply punch in any numbers that they want, as they did in the 2004 U.S. Presidential election (of which the actual winner, Bonesman Kerry, was more than happy to roll over for his good buddies, the Bushes):

In "The Unexplained Exit Poll Discrepancy," Dr. Steven F. Freeman says:

"As much as we can say in social science that something is impossible, it is impossible that the discrepancies between predicted and actual vote counts in the three critical battleground states [Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania] of the 2004 election could have been due to chance or random error."

The odds of those exit poll statistical anomalies occurring by chance are, according to Dr. Freeman, "250,000,000 to one."

In addition to the above, President George Bush, Jr. is a closet-case who queerer than a three-dollar bill. Take the case of Victor "Victoria" Ashe, George Bush, Jr.'s long-time homosexual lover and fellow member in the Brotherhood of Death (a.k.a. the Order of Skull & Bones)--the former Mayor of Knoxville, Tennessee, and now the current Ambassador to Poland, appointed by Bush, Jr.

Below is the Globe and Mail's own tactful way of subtly "outing" Bush, Jr.:

Also revealing, on the Nixon tapes from May 13, 1971, Nixon says of Bohemian Grove:

""
"But it's not just the ratty part of town. The upper class in San Francisco is that way. The Bohemian Grove, which I attend from time to time--it is the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine, with that San Francisco crowd. I can't shake hands with anybody from San Francisco."
""

(From "All The Philosopher King's Men--President Richard Nixon, John D. Ehrlichman, and H. R. Haldeman," James Warren, Harper's Magazine, February 2000 http://www.prisonplanet.com/032604nixontape.html .)

Yet the Bushes just can't get enough of Bohemian Grove.

Also interesting, as Mayor, Ashe spent $200,000 for a 7.9-foot black granite Egyptian obelisk (i.e., the Phallus of Osiris) on which is the laser-etched names of the people that died in the 9/11 PsyOps attacks, and which is in front of the City-County Building:

The above doesn't even touch upon former President George Bush, Sr.'s sexual fondness for young boys:

"Homosexual prostitution inquiry ensnares VIPs with Reagan, Bush: 'Call boys' took midnight tour of White House," Paul M. Rodriguez and George Archibald, Washington Times, June 29, 1989:

The below documentary, "Conspiracy of Silence," was produced by Yorkshire Television (U.K.) under contract by the Discovery Channel. The documentary was scheduled to air nation-wide in the U.S. on the Discovery Channel on May 3, 1994. It was listed in the April 30th-May 6th edition of TV Guide and in newspapers for that day.

This documentary exposed a network of business leaders, Washington politicians and other high officials involved in a child sex-slave ring that flew children to Washington, D.C. and elsewhere in the U.S. for sex orgies. This documentary film turned out to be very presciently named, because close to the time before airing, various congressmen threatened the cable TV industry with restrictive legislation if this documentary was aired. Almost immediately, the rights to the documentary were purchased for some half-million dollars by unnamed persons who ordered all copies destroyed. A copy of the rough-edited version of the film was furnished anonymously to attorney and former Nebraska State Senator John DeCamp, among others.

Former CIA Director William E. Colby is also interviewed on the documentary "Conspiracy of Silence," wherein William E. Colby backs up the legitimacy of these charges and also talks about the real risks of assassination that John DeCamp faces for taking up this case (other investigators into the Franklin, Nebraska child sex-slave scandal were assassinated).

"Conspiracy of Silence" doesn't attempt to go into the Satanic and human-sacrifice angle of the Franklin incident, although that is very much part of this case, as this case is directly connected to Bohemian Grove and other child sex-slave rings. For more on this aspect, see the below book by former State Senator John DeCamp:

The Franklin Cover-Up: Child Abuse, Satanism, and Murder in Nebraska by John W. DeCamp (AWT; 2nd edition: December 1, 1996), ISBN: 0963215809:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0963215809/

One of the best introductions to the background and subsequent cover-up of the above film, "Conspiracy of Silence," is from the below excerpts from the book The Franklin Cover-Up by former State Senator John DeCamp, wherein he also talks about his relationship to former CIA Director William E. Colby (who himself was assassinated). Do a search for "Yorkshire" to go directly to the section concerning this film:

or:

One of the victims, Paul Bonacci, testified in court to being forced into deprived sexual acts with men and other boys, including snuff films made at Bohemian Grove, with U.S. Senior District Judge Warren K. Urbom presiding. Bonacci won the court case and was awarded one-million dollars by Judge Urbom.

Not so at all, Ms. Katt. The truth is the truth. Either we confront the truth head-on, or we run from it. If the former, then at the very least we can come to know what we are facing in order to fight it better, eventually resulting in its defeate. If the latter, the then we stand no chance against it.

jamie im begging u to not post on my threads again, i actually wanted to hear from liberals like myself..i was sincerely interested if only i felt that we can only counter the right by taking the exact opposite positions and a tough stance rather than play middle of the road which alienates the hardcore liberal base and doesnt garner enough of the conservatives...

the last paragraph was diplomatic and polite...now for honesty...

ur a fuckin looney and although u obviously have a lot to say, u really have very little to offer...ur a nutjob and ill be really pissed off if u fuck up my threads again...ur like the asshole on the corner of times square yelling about white people being the devil and being the lost tribe of israel...even people who hate white people are embarressed to relate...so even if a drop of what u say has legitimacy, ur doing ur cause harm by posting a huge fuckin statement every time which no one reads and results in u become even further removed from humanity...perhaps u like that, ur so out there...but not here...i bet the whole drag thing u do is just an excuse to find a niche to espouse ur shit...if this was an amputee lovers website youde probably chop an arm off just to feel in the loop and justify ur stealing a lil bit of everyones life with ur nonesense...

Well, besides a lot of fallacious nonsense which you spout in the above, your writing skills could use a lot of work. It's in need of something called coherency, which you greatly lack. Do some research on it--it will work wonders for you.

[Jamie Michelle]

I see you like making false statements, Arianna. That is unfortunate.

[LCF]

I have a question Jaime, if Nixon can't cover up Watergate, and bush can't even cover up wiretapping, than how could anyone ever hide conspiracies the size of which you're describing?

I'll agree that many people in positions of power were put there my secret societies, skull and bones being up there near the top, but it isn't my personal belief that this is part of a huge conspiracy to create a new world order, but instead simply a group that is perpetuating itself by guaranteeing what it promises. It's keeps it's members rich and helps widen the gap between the rich and the poor. As for Globalization, trust me, you want it to succeed, we all want globalization to succeed, it is in our best interests for the world to be connected in a fair and equitable world economy. Wars disrupt trade, and there is very little reason to go to war between two countries that are peacefully and equitably trading.

Back on topic, I was a little dissapointed about the democratic response this year. I thought it ironic that he was bragging what his state has done even though he had been elected just 18 days previously. However, I don't think democrats should take opposite positions just to take opposite positions. Realistically speaking, the democrats don't need to take a more leftist response to please their far left liberal support, as those people are SO liberal that they would never vote for the oppoosing party anyway. In addition I'm really worried about how polorized the american political system has become these days, and I do appreciate that the democrats didn't spend the entire response slamming Bush, if only so that the two parties can at least try to start working together.

Popular support for Bush is at an alltime low, the Democrats probably didn't feel any need to slam bush and look like rabid dogs ferociously attacking when he's down. In the end he made a rather subdoed speech and they made a rather subdoed response. The democrats don't need to bury bush, he does it all on his own.

[The American Nightmare]

Don't you see? That's what they want you to think! They purposely exposed those "secrets" to make the government look incompetent at cover-ups! You don't want to know the truth, and that makes me a sad panda.

See, the trick to a conspiracy theory is to make claims that absolutely cannot be proven or disproven. Your lack of evidence is never a factor. *** THEY *** are hiding the truth from you.

Sorry to continue the thread hi-jack. This bullshit just really baffles me.

Meanwhile, I'll continue to vote the lesser of two evils, friends don't let friends vote repug...

J, while we're on the topic of the SOTU event...everyone is aware about Cindy Sheehan and the injustice done to her at this event. Let's take a look at one of the chickenhawk-in-chief's "welcomed guests". Now here's a conspiracy theory with a little substance to it. Jamie, no need to respond to this, PLEASE....

A 9/11 Conspirator in King Bush's Court?

Jeremy Scahill

While Cindy Sheehan was being dragged from the House gallery moments before President Bush delivered his State of the Union address for wearing a t-shirt honoring her son and the other 2,244 US soldiers killed in Iraq, Turki al-Faisal was settling into his seat inside the gallery. Faisal, a Saudi, is a man who has met Osama bin Laden and his lieutenants on at least five occasions, describing the al Qaeda leader as "quite a pleasant man." He met multiple times with Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar.

Yet, unlike Sheehan, al-Faisal was a welcomed guest of President Bush on Tuesday night. He is also a man that the families of more than 600 victims of the 9/11 attacks believe was connected to their loved ones' deaths.

Al-Faisal is actually Prince Turki al-Faisal, a leading member of the Saudi royal family and the kingdom's current ambassador to the US. But the bulk of his career was spent at the helm of the feared Saudi intelligence services from 1977 to 2001. Last year, The New York Times pointed out that "he personally managed Riyadh's relations with Osama bin Laden and Mullah Muhammad Omar of the Taliban. Anyone else who had dealings with even a fraction of the notorious characters the prince has worked with over the years would never make it past a U.S. immigration counter, let alone to the most exclusive offices in Washington." Al-Faisal was also named in the $1 trillion lawsuit filed by hundreds of 9/11 victims' families, who accused him of funding bin Laden's network. Curiously, his tenure as head of Saudi intelligence came to an abrupt and unexpected end 10 days before the 9/11 attacks.

WTF are you talking about! Of COURSE Colmes is a liberal, a die hard liberal too. Not simply a moderate with slight leftist leanings. God you people make me sick. It's simply because that the conservative lies *cough* arguments are so much BETTER than the best liberal arguments, than Colmes is Hannity's bitch. You're all a bunch of evil goddless communist fags. Everyone knows that God only cares about rich people, and doesn't give a shit about equity. therefore all liberals must be godless.

You can't argue with my logic because any arguments you give me will somehow lead back to how you don't support our troops you cold souless heathens!

[Hugh Jarrod]

i bet bush asked her to wear the pro soldier shirt so she can be arrested to make it look even handed, just like bill orielly alternates his reading of emails between redneck sheep praising him and pretend mails maliciously attacking him, usually in ridiculous baseless fashion, so he looks fair and balanced but is typical religious/conservative full of shit and will pull no punches to win!!!I wouldn't be surprised.

Fox may be "week", but they are also daily, and on target, and swamping CNN in the ratings. Gee you are so hip to know that President Bush asked her to wear the tr-shirt. He has nothing better to do. That's a liberal pasttime, setting up shit like that.

Capitol police handcuffed Sheehan and removed her from the visitors' gallery. She was charged with a misdemeanor for violating the District of Columbia's code against unlawful or disruptive conduct on any part of the Capitol grounds.

Young left on her own and was not charged, said police.
http://www.cbc.ca/story/world/national/2006/02/02/tshirt-arrest060202.html

as usual, you have the indignation down, but you really need to work on the righteous part. The Congressman's wife was asked to leave and did so on her own, and was not arrested, handcuffed or charged with a crime. Ignoring that huge discrepancy in treatment, the police silenced Sheehan from trying to show her opposition to what was being said Taking out a supporter didn't diminish any of the points Bush was trying to make. Suppressing dissent is far worse than limiting support.

Granted , Tim Kaine's middle-of-the-road, mediocre response was pathetic ...

But here is a great read on the chickenhawk-in-chief's SOTU address-

W Places Apple On Head, Dares Nation To Shoot It Off
Tom Gilroy

If you missed the President's address to the nation last night, here's all you really need to know: he dared us to impeach him.

W basically got up there and said, 'I'm the same incompetent buffoon I was 6 years ago, and I'm staying the course. What're you gonna do about it?' He stared the country down and dared us to acknowledge the miles-long list of crimes and failures trailing behind him like a swatch of toilet paper stuck to the heel of an Alzheimer's patient shuffling out of a public restroom.

With disastrous opinion polls showing the public at odds with W on virtually every issue--from the war in Iraq to authorizing spying on ordinary Americans to Social Security--Bush ignored reality and stuck to a script that's been sitting on Karl Rove's laptop for five years.

If you decide whats right by how its rated....

Only 29% Of American Idol Viewers Stayed To Watch Bush State Of The Union on your Fox Network. 33 million watched bad off tune performances on Idol and 8.2 watched a bad offtune.... you get the idea

SurveyUSA found that 41 percent of voters across the country approve of the job Bush is doing, while 56 percent disapprove

56 Percent say the Iraq War was a mistake, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll

If Bush were a tv show, he'd have been cancelled before Sweeps LOL

So one piece of shit government moth piece is beating another at what? Being a government mouth piece? Dude you're still obviously stuck on this - that, and if it's not one side it's the other crap that D.C. has been handing you. Just make some decisions for yourself my friend, really just try it, it doesn't hurt any.

The Mis-Statement Of The Union

MISLEADING AMERICA ON DOMESTIC GAINS:


BUSH: The economy has gained 4.6 million new jobs in the past 2 1/2 years.

REALITY: The economy lost nearly 3 million jobs during his first 2 1/2 years in office, leaving a net job gain of little over 1 million jobs during his entire tenure in office. Hardly stellar job market gains.

BUSH: We are on track to cut the federal deficit in half by 2009.

REALITY: The deficit is actually increasing this year, and according to the Congressional Budget Office it will decline by considerably less than half even if Bush's tax cuts are not made permanent - something Bush urged strongly in his speech.

BUSH: Keeping America competitive requires us to be good stewards of tax dollars. Every year of my presidency we've reduced the growth of non-security discretionary spending.

REALITY: Non-security discretionary spending only represents a mere 16% of the entire federal budget, and even it has grown under Bush. Furthermore, overall federal spending is up a whopping 42% under Bush, according to figures from the Congressional Budget Office. And CBO projects further upward pressure on spending, including rising interest rates pushing up the cost of servicing the swelling national debt, and rising medical costs and Bush's new prescription drug benefit pushing up the cost of Medicare. (Neither item is counted in the "discretionary" category). CBO projects interest costs will increase 18 per cent in the current fiscal year, and Medicare will go up 17 per cent.


BUSH: I am pleased that members of Congress are working on earmark reform, because the federal budget has too many special interest projects. And we can tackle this problem together, if you pass the line-item veto.

REALITY: The Supreme Court struck down a line-item veto as a violation of the Constitution in 1998, after President Clinton exercised the power once. The vote was 6 to 3, and one of the three Justices who wanted to uphold the power was Sandra Day O'Connor, whose resignation from the high court took effect earlier on the same day Bush spoke. The President offered no explanation of how the veto might be revived by legislation in a form that the current, more conservative Supreme Court would approve, nor did he call specifically for a Constitutional amendment.

BUSH: Breakthroughs on this and other new technologies will help us reach another great goal: to replace more than 75 percent of our oil imports from the Middle East by 2025. By applying the talent and technology of America, this country can dramatically improve our environment, move beyond a petroleum-based economy, and make our dependence on Middle Eastern oil a thing of the past.

REALITY: US dependence on imported oil and petroleum products increased substantially during Bush's presidency. According to most recent figures from the Energy Information Administration, the US imported 60 percent of its oil and petroleum products during the first 11 months of last year, up from just under 53 percent in President Clinton's last year in office.

MISLEADING AMERICA ON FOREIGN POLICY GAINS:

BUSH: In 1945, there were about two dozen lonely democracies in the world. Today, there are 122. And we're writing a new chapter in the story of self-government -- with women lining up to vote in Afghanistan, and millions of Iraqis marking their liberty with purple ink, and men and women from Lebanon to Egypt debating the rights of individuals and the necessity of freedom.

REALITY: Bush fails to mention that neither Iraq nor Afghanistan yet qualify as democracies according to the very group whose statistics he cited. The President's numbers come from Freedom House, a nonprofit group that tracks levels of democracy and freedom around the globe. It is true, just as the President said, that there were 122 democracies in the world in 2005, but Iraq and Afghanistan are not yet counted among them by Freedom House. Also, Freedom House rates neither Iraq nor Afghanistan as "free." It rates Iraq as "not free," with scores on civil liberties and political freedom as low as those of Egypt. "Iraq gets points taken away for the chaos that is associated with the insurgency, among other things," Freedom House's Arch Puddington told FactCheck.org. Afghanistan is rated somewhat better but still only "partly free."

BUSH: In a time of testing, we cannot find security by abandoning our commitments and retreating within our borders. If we were to leave these vicious attackers alone, they would not leave us alone. They would simply move the battlefield to our own shores. There is no peace in retreat. And there is no honor in retreat.

REALITY: A clear swipe at some Democrats who have called for immediate withdrawl from Iraq. However, there is no record of any Democrat calling for a retreat in the War on Terror or that terrorists should not be pursued aggressively and militarily. This is a classic strawman argument the Bush Adminstration has used on numerous occasions by bulking Iraq together with the broader overall War on Terror. Given the highly subjective nature of whether the invasion of Iraq has made America safer from terrorism, one can support a war to eradicate terrorism without neccessarily supporting continuing military operations in Iraq.

BUSH: We now know that two of the hijackers in the United States placed telephone calls to al Qaeda operatives overseas. But we did not know about their plans until it was too late. So to prevent another attack –- based on authority given to me by the Constitution and by statute -- I have authorized a terrorist surveillance program to aggressively pursue the international communications of suspected al Qaeda operatives and affiliates to and from America.

REALITY: Bush is clearly suggesting that we would have not been attacked on 9/11 had the U.S. government been allowed to conduct wiretaps in the manner for which he has come under fire. This is an outright falsehood. First of all, there is no mention of what the alleged phone call entailed. Secondly, the CIA or FBI certainly would have had no problem whatsoever in obtaining the necessary warrant to tap such a call had the known about it - which could have even been obtained after the fact. This again is an often-used strawman argument to defend Bush's warrantless wiretaps. No one is objecting to tapping the phones of suspected Al-Queda operatives. The concern is that courts are being by-passed through a possible overreach of Executive power.
