Quote for Today

I wouldn't call it fascism exactly, but a political system nominally controlled by an irresponsible, dumbed down electorate who are manipulated by dishonest, cynical, controlled mass media that dispense the propaganda of a corrupt political establishment can hardly be described as democracy either.

~ Edward Zehr

 

This quote pretty much sums up the better part of the last eight years. Let's see what the next four years hold for us under Obama's leadership.

 

As Mark likes to say, "Change Continuity You Can Believe In."

Boot to the Head

You Asked For A Flat Tax...

You got a flat tax. Well, a flatulence tax, that is. It seems the idiots at EPA are considering imposing a tax on farmers who's livestock emit methane when they fart. Up to $175 a head, according to this article. This, of course, is absolutely preposterous and anyone connected with its proposal should be laughed right out of their jobs.

False Flag Operations

...are covert operations conducted by governments, corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to appear as though they are being carried out by other entities.

I was thinking about this mess in India the other day and decided to put on my tinfoil hat for a moment. By putting on this hat, my brain is allowed to make connections between events that reasonable people don't usually make. Anyway, there I was, brain a stewin' in its own juices when a scenario formed. Bing went the bell like a timer on a pop tart.

 

The shootings in India are a false flag operation carried out by [The United States or Great Britain]. The perps are reported to be from Pakistan, but I saw a news headline that said some of them were actually British-born Pakistanis from the same area that produced the 7-7 bombers. But why? Why a false flag operation to make it look like Pakistan was behind it? Well, the US lost its hold over Pakistan when the puppet dictator Musharref finally stepped down. The US has been looking for any excuse to get into Pakistan militarily. A link to terrorism would be ideal. A false flag operation would give them just that excuse.

 

Pakistan sits between Afghanistan and the Arabian Sea. This would allow oil-based exports to flow easily from the Caspian Sea Basin, through Afghanistan down to Pakistan, and onto tankers. The tankers would no longer have to go all the way up the Persian Gulf to Iraq or Kuwait. This would keep them from having to go through the Strait of Hormuz and Iran. Strategically it makes perfect sense.
