Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

Friday morning line up

I get feedback. Few bother sending emails to the group. Interesting.

1. Bob mentioned this morning that van Jones is doomed and that he figures this weekend should do it. Apparently, the administration is worried about an open communist figure calling others assholes. The video below demonstrates a slight lisp, as well!

From Irene: our Czar of O2- white people are polluting the black people:

2. Bob mentioned one of the founders of the Weather Underground and an author of the bills the democrats voted on without reading has his office in Troy, NY. I think its the Apollo office.

From Beck broadcast:

KERPEN: Well, Jeff has been involved not just in those terrorist activities with the Weather Underground. He was actually part of the Weather-buro modeled on the politburo which was the high leadership where he was with Bill Ayers.

But Jones was on the run, hiding from the law for about a decade before he was finally caught in a dramatic raid where his 4-year-old saw him arrested in 1981.

He then became an adviser to environmental groups, to labor organizations and to the New York state government where he sits on a commission for Governor Paterson...

... he's an adviser to something called the Workforce Development Institute here in New York, which is advising state and local governments and universities on how to write their grants to get stimulus funds from the stimulus bill that he and his friends at Apollo wrote....

...They've got the mainstream guys. Carl Pope, the president of the Sierra Club is on the board of the Apollo Alliance. They've got — they've got Leo Gerard from the International Steelworkers Union on the board of the Apollo Alliance. John Podesta, from the American for Center Progress — all of the mainstream elements of the Obama administration and the liberal and progressive movement are tied in with these people.
3. Greg called last night and had interesting distillations:
a. We missed the opportunity to reconstitute personal freedom when the first TARP went through, following hysterical threats of doom from the FED - they said there was 24 hours before the system failed. So, the elite got the people to cover their loses and emerge, as Bob points out, with fewer competitors. Greg opines it may have failed, we should have let it, but Goldman Sachs prevented it. Bob mentioned today that the Fed is compromised, thoroughly political. That is, the government and large businesses are merging - the essence of fascism. I ask: why are we so intent on covering the losses of billionaires? Is a long death better than a painful catharsis?

b. We are, right now, at the point of deciding between being citizens or subjects. For me, this is a perfect central concept to hold. A citizen has responsibility and empowers a government to act on his behalf and is NOT a subject who lets the government be his mommy. Bottom line, the development of the mommy state is what is going on under the guise of medical care, etc. Catch yourself every time you say you are getting something from the government - that is the beginning of the end. It is a lie.

c. The wheel of history continues, regardless of the missed opportunity to let Goldman Sachs, et al, fail and the next collapse will be more dramatic, and we will have no money left to cover it up.

d. The rampant growth of the money changers, the true nature of "investment bankers," started with the end of the gold standard. After that, money was whatever the government decided to "print."
4. Bob also agrees with me the first thing, perhaps the only thing, is to vote everyone out of office. Party is irrelevant. For my part, I think we should start a movement to amend to Constitution to add term limits, fix a modest income and budget for the Congress. I have to think about repealing the 17th Amendment, a popular topic, wherein we abandon the direct election of senators and return the duty to the states. One can see the problems inherent in politics, but are we better off with demagogues? At least, the state representatives are close to the people and watching to make sure they get reelected, except in NYC, Boston, and LA where there is no real examination of candidates.

5. Final comment from Bob: if you are convicted of a felony while in Congress, even for acts taken earlier, you get life. I am not sure how this would work other than a second federal trial, but think about the idea.

Required watching


Watch Glenn Beck tonight. Its an event.

He has done the framework behind the Obama communists (Van Jones), socialists, Weather Underground, etc. Last night, his ratings were higher than CBS News. Bob said, this morning, he is taping the rest of the week's shows.

We already know about Ayers, Obama's holy religious pastor, his father, family, mother, family friends, sponsors to Harvard, but more is being revealed about those in power.

I understand my blog is dedicated to looking at the message, not the messenger, but that implies the messenger is not trained liar. At some point, especially when dealing with humans, one has to stop talking into the gale and understand all is pretense, that argument has been a waste of time.

Greg has long wanted to create a program to track data back to who are running things. He can atually do this. Like most of us, he has to work for a living, though, to pay taxes and fees.

His idea parallels Beck's confusion as to who is pulling the strings. It can't be Obama. We know that. On last nights show, liberal democrat Caddell said he didn't think it was a Marxist putsh, but one of elitists. I can buy that this analysis makes sense to uncomfortable leftists, but I would believe they are still being herded.

Caddell says, and I am sure this is the strategy:
I think they're flooding the zones, to use a football metaphor, I prefer that. I mean, your viewers probably understand that. Setting out so many things and nobody can cover it all.
The bills, unread by Congress and the President, were prepared by leftists organizations and ready to be dumped on Congress ASAP - to be immediately passed - lest they be read and discussed by the people, who Bill Marr said last night were too stupid to consider when forcing progress on them. (The audience laughed. To that extent, he is right.)

There is an entire network of sub rosa organizations feeding the morons in Congress. Don't forget, ACORN is to control the census. An obvious joke, but most Americans probably don't know what a census is.

On the radio today, Beck said tonight's show is fearful for him, personally. He expects personal attacks, which I already see on the net: he is crazy. The typical attack.

I have to admit the morons fall for it. The evil or stupid or crazy (per situation): Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, Cheney, Judge Thomas, etc etc etc, Coulter, Beck, Limbaugh, etc etc etc. I loved the dual attacks on Bush: he is stupid and he is devilishly clever. The attack depends on the subject matter. When you need to punt, Cheney ran everythings. You see, everyone not a true believer is crazy and stupid, just roll your eyes and don't talk to them. Give each other knowing glances.

Eventually, the believers are trashing the majority, the educated, the tax payers. The breeders are not a base in this country and the illegal aliens won't be able to vote for a long time. Still, even though Hitlers' putsh was a failure, he did eventually become dictator and millions died.

Here is some of Beck on the Piven-Cloward strategy.

The White House was on the telephone to FOX, during the broadcast, making demands.

In response to the facts about Van Jones the White House did not respond to allegations. Its reply was he is not a Czar, just an advisor, so don't call him a Czar. There you go, the Alinsky radicals don't know hot to think, just whine and threaten - but who are they threatening?

Look for the typical personal attacks on Beck. When it comes, you know he has revealed the beast. The thing is, I don't think the "all in" statists were ready, though their timing was smart. They don't have a lasting majority, only a perfect storm of events.

Soon, to say you are an Obama supporter will become an albatross. People will ask, "Are you a communist?" If people say no, then they are stupid. Some choice.
