All Air Force Planes to be grounded on Sept 14 (CNN)

The Air Force announced that all flights of fighters and bombers in
the United States will be halted on September 14 to allow for a review
of procedures.

Air Force investigates mistaken transport of nuclear warheads
http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/09/05/loose.nukes/index.html

This is 5 days after the first 9-9-9.  We then have new moon partial solar eclipse on the 6th anniversary of 9-11.  Then this Air Force stand down on the 14th which would make all our planes unavailable for another false flag event, the 14th is also a 5 day.  Pay attention tot he fact that September has three 9-9-9 days the 18th and then the 27th are also 9-9-9 days.

Eclipse Details From NASA

Posted by Engtovo on August 28, 2007

tle2007aug28-map1s.gif

The second lunar eclipse of the year is another total eclipse. It is a deeper event since it is the first central total eclipse since 2000. The eclipse occurs at the ascending node of Luna’s orbit in southern Aquarius. Since the Moon is 2.6 days shy of perigee, it will appear 8% larger (= 1.2 arc-minutes) than it was during March’s eclipse. The Moon’s trajectory takes it deep into the southern umbral shadow, resulting in a total eclipse that lasts 90 minutes. At mid-totality the Moon’s centre passes just 12.8 arc-minutes south of the shadow axis. This places the Moon’s northern limb only 3.4 arc-minutes north of the axis while the southern limb is 15.4 arc-minutes from the umbra’s southern edge.

Since different parts of the Moon will probe radically different portions of Earth’s umbral shadow, a large variation in shadow brightness can be expected. As a consequence of this geometry, the southern half of the totally eclipsed Moon will appear considerably brighter than the northern half. Observers are encouraged to estimate the Danjon value at mid-totality.

The penumbral phase of August’s eclipse begins at about 07:54 UT, but most observers will not be able to visually detect the shadow until about 08:30 UT. A timetable for the major phases of the eclipse is listed below.

Penumbral Eclipse Begins: 07:53:39 UT
Partial Eclipse Begins: 08:51:16 UT
Total Eclipse Begins: 09:52:22 UT
Greatest Eclipse: 10:37:22 UT
Total Eclipse Ends: 11:22:24 UT
Partial Eclipse Ends: 12:23:30 UT
Penumbral Eclipse Ends: 13:21:01 UT

At the instant of mid-totality (10:37 UT) the Moon will stand near the zenith for observers in French Polynesia. At that time, the umbral eclipse magnitude will be 1.4760.

All of North America will witness some portion of the eclipse, but western observers are favored. The early penumbral or umbral phases will be in progress at moonset for observers in Maritime Canada. From the eastern USA, the Great Lakes region and Ontario, the Moon sets in total eclipse. Only observers to the west of the Rockies (including Alaska) will be treated to the entire event. All phases of the eclipse are also visible from islands of the Pacific Ocean, New Zealand and eastern Australia. Various stages of the eclipse are in progress at moonrise for eastern Asia. No eclipse is visible from Europe, Africa and western Asia.

Future Total Eclipse of the Moon from now through 2012 

February 21 2008 (Visible in all of the eastern U.S. and at moonrise in the western U.S.)

December 21 2010, also Solstice so very powerful (All of this eclipse is visible in the whole of North America)

June 15 2011 (Not visible in the U.S.)

December 10 2011 (Visible at moon set in the U.S.)

Eclipse Tonight

Posted by Engtovo on August 28, 2007

Don’t forget tonight is the the total lunar eclipse.  This energy is the build up energy for 9-9-9 which then ends on September 11th with new moon partial solar eclipse starting the next cycle.  There is likely a lot of nasty ceremony going on tonight so keep yourself protected and if you’re in an area where the eclipse is visible get outside and enjoy it, it is very powerful to be out under a full lunar eclipse, and you likely won’t be able to sleep anyway!!  :-)

Capitol Police Boost Security to Deal With Threat of Pre-Sept. 11 Attack by al-Qaida
By John McArdle
Roll Call Staff
Thursday, Aug. 2; 4:33 pm

Capitol Police officials have stepped up the department’s security presence on Capitol Hill in response to intelligence indicating the increased possibility of an al-Qaida terrorist attack on Congress sometime between now and Sept. 11.

They are out of session from August 6th to September 3rd and noise is being made that they should not come back until the 12th.  So they want us to be fearful that Washington will be attacked during that time and that they are so important they should not even have to come back to the session at normal times.  Since when do we allow a supposed terrorist threat to determine when our congress will be in session.  This is either one of two; things simply a fear campaign to use as an excuse to enact some security measure that will effect our rights even further or they are planning another 911 type attack and right around 911coincidently.  Or could that be right around 9-9-9 (2007=9).  That is the completion numerology date, i can imagine they would love to create a circumstance that would complete the shredding of what’s left of the constitution with that date, and institute martial law.  Just know in advance is anything happens at that time it is an inside job not terrorism!

Colorado’s Kangaroo Courts

Posted by Engtovo on June 21, 2007

Kangaroo courts in Colorado where a lawyer  recommends as a strategy that a woman lie about her newborn baby’s father and his family in order to get protection orders placed against them so that she can control the baby. Never mind that she was never in danger nor was her child, that all the baby?s father wanted was minimal visitation. Never mind that there are people in Colorado in actual need of a protection order. Never mind the consequences to the child or the father?s family. The Colorado court that should see through this ruse instead hands out the protection orders willingly. No crimes were committed no one was even accused of a crime. No one had a record or had EVER committed a crime. The father?s family are well known to be pacifists, but the manipulative little bitch, who is developmentally delayed, and obviously mentally ill as well, with a long history of suicide attempts, has full control of the baby with the father getting supervised visitation four hours each Sunday. Who supervises the visitation? Well mommy dearest would not consider anyone other than her mother, who she lives with. Did anyone bother to check that this is the same woman who raised a son who is in prison for 51 years for kidnapping and raping two teen girls. Not exactly a stellar example or someone who should be considered worthy of supervising anyone.

This same woman is known to have drank heavily through the youth of her children and there is no evidence she does not drink now, no doubt she is the very reason her daughter is developmentally delayed. She was living with this mother when she lied and claimed to be pregnant two months before she actually was and continued this lie throughout her pregnancy despite multiple ultrasounds that disapproved her claims over and over. (In other words she is a proven liar) She had no job and got pregnant purposefully knowing that Medicaid would have to pay all her expenses. I see no reason to believe this girl would ever be capable of living alone even without a child. Yet the court feels it is in the child?s best interest to be with her mother and the grandmother with no time with the father outside this home and no ability to see his family under any circumstances. His family are all law abiding citizens, have never been in trouble with the law, no family member has ever been to jail for any reason. This family strived to get her proper medical care when she neglected herself during her pregnancy and her mother did nothing. The actions of the father?s family saved the life of this child with an emergency c-section done due to their research, that her doctors did not pursue do to their belief the girl was just crazy. (which she is, but she was also quite ill) A small synapses of the situation obviously, but enough to be disgusted.

In Colorado a permanent protection order can be issued against someone with nothing more than the person?s claims, no proof is required and any old lie will do. Once issued four years must pass before the person who is restrained can go to court and ask for the order to be removed. They will, however, have to come to court fully prepared with fingerprints checked out by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the FBI, a three month process. Since when do we in America have to prove our innocence, instead of an accuser proving our guilt? Since when do people need to be ?protected? from people that they can accuse of nothing? Since when should anyone with no record whatsoever of violence be assumed guilty and have protection orders issued against them, based on the word of someone who could say anything, has no witnesses to any event that would lead them to believe they are in danger? What is wrong with this picture? How can law enforcement take any Colorado protection order seriously when there is no burden of proof to get one? Why should they believe anyone with a protection order is in danger ever? Do other states in this county consider protection orders issued in Colorado a joke? Or has this become the norm across all the 50 states? What?s next we all need to have the FBI check us out in advance so we can take a little card to court if anything happens proving that we have a clean record, that we have no criminal history? This is disturbing beyond words to me, it is clearly unconstitutional, but then those of us paying attention already know that the constitution has been stripped of all its power already. This is just another indication of how our justice system is completely corrupt and broken just like the executive and legislative branches. It could just be that it?s only a matter of time before the governments local, state and federal will just issue a protection order against all citizens with the protected parties being themselves. Clearly they see us all as criminals but considering they are all criminals I guess it only makes sense to them to think we are the same as they are.

Death of the U.S. Constitution

Posted by Engtovo on January 31, 2006

It’s May and I wrote this way back at the end of January and then forgot to post it so I am going to date it to the time of writing instead of the time of posting.

The lingering death of the United States Constitution is close to coming to an end. As the constitution has been slowly chipped away for years, the majority of Americans were oblivious, now the power grab has been secured with the addition of Alito to the Supreme Court. This is a very dark day for America and for the world. With Alito the deciding vote on a Supreme Court that is split in its views, the freedoms that the American people have bragged about, lived and died for are all but dead.

The Constitution has in fact been on its death bed for at least 30 years, but we still had the illusion of the rights that is gave us while we watched them be taken away one by one. Slowly and subtly they passed by while we toiled in economic slavery with fluoride brain mush making us unable to perceive what was happening. Then came 9-11 and the nation actually asked for our rights to be taken away. “Oh big brother please protect us” Well we then deserve what we are the process of getting, a complete fascist state.

All of the fascist laws that Bush has called for have been granted, when Congress has refused, Bush has simply added a signing statement to the bill passed to make the law apply to him only as he wants. In fact he has used 500 of these signing statements since he has been in office and the whole idea of signing statements was the brainchild of Samuel Alito. President Bush has never vetoed a bill! Now that Bush has the Supreme Court stacked there is nothing to stop him from seizing full dictatorial control of this country and essentially eliminating Congress with full support of the nation’s Supreme Court. The balance of powers that the Constitution demands is now officially gone! The balance was unofficially gone with the Supreme Court decision after the 2000 elections and the complete lack of accountability for the election fraud in 2004. Two elections were illegally handed to the man who believes it is his mission from God to be our fascist dictator. Now all illusion of propriety is no longer necessary as the five votes needed to turn any Supreme Court decision his way are in his pocket. So long Constitution R.I. P.

The Congress who swore to uphold the Constitution have just handed it over to be placed in a paper shedder and they either don’t care, are complicit or are ignorant, none of which are viable excuses. I have known for quite some time that both parties are the same, now, however, they are not even pretending to have different agendas. They share one agenda to destroy the republic of the United States.

Now those of you who have read my other writings know that I am not a big believer in countries in general and feel that the evolution of humanity leads to living on the planet with no need of government at all. We, however, have not evolved to that point and the destruction of a republic that claims freedom and human rights for its people to be replaced with fascism is not an acceptable alternative. We have for years jumped on the backs of other countries who were not offering their citizens the human rights we felt we could take for granted. Now here we sit with our own rights tattered on the verge on nonexistence, a country now known around the world for torture, abuse of our own citizens and the innocent citizens of other sovereign nations. A country pressed to preemptive war against a nonexistent enemy that was manufactured for the purpose of the destruction process.

Are we in fact karmicly regressing to that from which we came? The United States was formed on all kinds of lies and falsehoods even though there were many with good intentions among the founders. The original constitution had no Bill of Rights, the founders did not agree that we had specific rights. The Bill of Rights we defend were after thoughts, Amendments of those of conscience. The original constitution acknowledged human slavery as acceptable and allowed slaves to be counted as only 4/5 of a human for census purposes. Not exactly a stellar moment in human rights. The framers of the Constitution also had no problem with founding a country on the land where 500 nations already existed and simply exterminating the majority of these 500 nations and imprisoning the rest on reservations until those left could be assimilated.

As the years passed the diverse group of people who immigrated formed a group consciousness that believed in freedom and human rights and ignorantly believed that they had achieved that goal, and should share the good news of democracy to all. Unfortunately they were duped and like the Spanish missionaries who forced people by violence into Christianity we found ourselves over the years trying to violently force other countries into democracy, despite the fact we were never a democracy but indeed a republic. Lie after lie, war after war, in the name of democracy the American people were scammed into believing we’re making the world a better place. What we have been doing is what the United States has always done; stealing property and vital resources from anyone we could take it from by force. It’s the way it has been in Europe for millenniums and we came to this continent and continued with this pattern only with a greater sense of arrogance and purpose. Now we are about to be put back under the fascist rule of King George, only this King George may be even worse than the original one we fought the revolutionary war to escape.

Perhaps the republic of the United States was doomed from its start, but we the people with or without the republic or its Constitution are still, and always will be, the true power. The question is whether or not we will see our power and use it and demand that any government we live under be OUR government and afford all the human rights we pride ourselves in. We can declare our independence as individuals and as nation states and refuse fascism. We may be nearing a time when the states we live in will have no choice but to face the question of whether or not to secede from the union in order to stand by the intent of the Bill or Rights and their own state Constitutions. As important as it may be to know what is happening in federal level politics, it is equally or more important to know what is happening at your own state level. Will your state government succumb to the fascist state of King George, or will your state refuse if necessary and leave the union for the rights of WE THE PEOPLE.

Bird Flu – What Are the Odds of Mutation

Posted by Engtovo on November 30, 2005

Are we tired of hearing about the bird flu yet? The constant fear mongering never ceases. Words like epidemic & pandemic thrown around by those who the average Joe thinks know something he does not. Let’s face the facts here, bird flu is a disease of ummm… birds, that has infected a small amount of people. Yep that’s right a small amount, about 200 known cases of which approximately 60 people died out of 6 ½ billion people on planet earth. This is hardly worth noticing based on the numbers alone. For the most part these people either worked in or lived near a facility that raises poultry. A few may have been exposed to groups of wild birds infected, but most reports state that all contracted the disease from birds, with one or two rouge reports claiming one or two human to human transmissions with no evidence to back up their statements. Remember SARS the last big pandemic fear? Nothing came of SARS and it is just as likely nothing with come of this strain of the avian flu.

We have a whole lot of hype and no information whatsoever. The big pandemic we are supposed to prepare ourselves for is the one that is created when the bird flu mutates and is then capable of human to human transmission. This mutation is presented as immanent and absolute. I want to know what this assumption is based on. Where is there even one shred of information that shows this bird flu will ever mutate to be transmittable from human to human. There is none! All the great scientists of the world who specialize in this field are guessing that this one will mutate, yes you heard me, guessing. What are the odds of mutation and what is the scientific basis for the odds. There are no odds, zip, none, nadda. If it does mutate, do we know it will be as virulent as the current strain, or will it just be another flu? Well according to science and history a virus that is especially virulent is not good at spreading, and when it mutates and becomes better at spreading it becomes less virulent.

There are sites out there that want to scare us even more than the average media, one states that this virus has a 50% kill rate in humans and that we should expect that kill rate as a pandemic. This is fear mongering of the worst kind. First of all it only appears to have a 50% kill rate based on the amount of people who have been tested to have bird flu and how many of them have died. Second there could have been many others who contracted this strain and had minimal symptoms and recovered without ever being tested for bird flu drastically changing the numbers. Third the strain they have was contracted from birds it is not the human to human variety that it would have to mutate into in order to become a pandemic, that strain is an unknown.

One of the worst pandemics of historical record was the black death of the 14th century and it had an estimated 20% kill rate. The Spanish flu of 1918-1919 is now believed to be a mutated version of avian flu and it affected 20 – 25% of the world population with a kill rate of 2.5 to 5% of those infected. Of those who died many died of secondary bacterial pneumonia that was untreated as there were no antibiotics at the time, so the same strain hitting now would presumably have a much lower kill rate. The reality is that if the world experiences any kind of pandemic with a 50% kill rate we can be certain it was human created for the very purpose of culling the human population.

There is a lot of talk of the vaccine they are making and how long it will take. This too is nothing but propaganda as all flu vaccines are. A vaccine cannot be created for a mutated virus that does not exist yet. There may be scientists trying to make a vaccine based on the current strain hoping that it will speed up the making of a vaccine for a mutated strain that appears later. No matter what vaccine they may present us with, I wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole. The current flu vaccine is a joke and the fact that they want us all to have it so bad only makes it more suspect. Do you know that you may be taking a vaccine for a different strain of flu then the one in current circulation? Vaccine manufacturers never know what strain is going to pop up the next season as they are manufacturing your vaccine so they guess. Oh sure they use computer programs to help them guess but it’s a guess none the less. When they guess wrong they send out the vaccines anyway and all the dutiful docs are more than happy to sell them to you even though they know they are worthless, having been made for the wrong strain. Every one still needs to make their profits even when they guess wrong.

The truth is there is no evidence any flu vaccines work. Anecdotal evidence of my mother a nurse for the past 50 years, 73 years old and still nursing, is that her colleagues and patients who take the vaccines all get sick! She won’t take it, even when the hospital attempts to force her to, and amazingly she hasn’t had the flu since the last time she gave in, a few years back, and took the vaccine. That year she got the flu within a few days of receiving the vaccine. Flu vaccine is just big money plain and simple and when they create shortages, real or imagined, they make even better money as people clamor for more in fear. Now we have tamiflu this is supposed to be a significant medicine for the flu. Governments are stockpiling it for the bird flu pandemic that they tell us is imminent. There is no evidence that tamiflu will do anything for the bird flu if it mutates. It appears to do little to nothing for the regular flu. Information shows the regular flu will be on average one day shorter in duration with tamiflu, but no less intense.

I think the powers that be are just praying for a pandemic. With a true pandemic just think of all the lovely police state actions that could be taken world wide by governments champing at the bit to take away freedoms. Taking away our rights with the perfect excuse, claiming it is to protect our lives. Could there be a more perfect cover for crimes against humanity? This may seem far fetched to many, but with no real science behind the claims of mutation, and this strain becoming the next big pandemic, this would lead one to wonder (at the very least me) does a mutated version already exist, having been mutated by humans? Is the confidence in this being the coming pandemic simply because it is the release of a biological created from the bird flu for the purpose of culling the world population? Who would benefit from the pandemic? The list is a long one but most certainly it doesn’t include anyone who is the average Joe of any of the world’s nations. Is this a conspiracy theory of mass proportions? Sure, but that doesn’t take it out of the realm of possibility.

If history repeats we are due for a pandemic and it could have come 5 or 10 years ago based on the averages, it could be 5 or 10 years in the future. It’s no different than waiting for the big earthquake, it could come at any moment. We should all have some basic preparedness, but go on with our lives without allowing our media and government to control us with their fear mongering. The flu in fact serves an important purpose in the human body, those who purify their bodies and mind rarely get the flu. Those in need of purification get the flu, the fever kills off all kinds of things that harm the body, often when inflicted we give our digestive system a rest and take in only fluids for a few days detoxifying ourselves. There are always some who are in a weakened state and the flu ends their lives, but as the old saying goes “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” I don’t think we should be attempting to vaccinate against a mostly innocuous, although unpleasant illness that serves a purpose in human existence. Don’t want to experience it, try regular mediation, fasting, remove the poisonous foods and supposed medicines of our toxic society from your diet. Turn off the TV when the fear mongering escalates and refuse to live your life in the constant state of stress that is being pressed upon us by media and government.

The odds of this bird flu mutating into a pandemic are completely unknown. The odds of a new virus showing up tomorrow with no warning and sweeping the world as the pandemic that is due, equally unknown. So if you want to worry about, it then you may as well take a vacation to a beach resort and spend the whole vacation anticipating being hit by a tsunami, or go to LA with the purpose of waiting for the big one. When the big ones hit, whether they be tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, pandemics or inside job terrorist attacks like 911, no amount of worry changes anything, all it does it tear at the fabric of our lives while things are good. We should all have some food, water, medical supplies etc, so when something hits we are prepared to take care of ourselves, but once you have a few supplies in the house and car, LET GO! A life of fear is not a life worth saving, choose joy.

Looting after Katrina

Posted by Engtovo on August 31, 2005

Looting after Katrina

Being annoyed watching CNN is not unusual for me, as the anchors are consistent at ignoring what the people they are interviewing actually say.  They repeat what was said changing the meaning immediately, and that is status quo for them, I expect that, however today, well, today is different.  When a disaster such as Katrina comes to pass, it is a time to be even more diligent in presenting the story from an unbiased position and today bias was all that was reported.  I’m not sure if this bias was intentional or just an expression of a few people unable to back out of their own emotions to see that there are always multiple sides to a story.

The issue in question … looting or in some cases surviving.  A CNN producer was very vocal about how disgusted she was at the looting.  The assumption she passed on to the world wide audience was that these were criminals before the hurricane, continuing with their disgusting criminal ways.  She commented specifically about how she saw someone looking through Nike tennis shoes trying to find their size.  She said they were not taking things they needed to survive like food or water they were taking clothes and shoes.

Let’s think about this for a minute.  Your house is flooded, everything you own is gone.  You have the clothes on your back.  You are wading through disgusting water, filled with oil, feces, and god knows what else, which is now all over your only clothes.  I’m thinking I would feel a change of clothes was definitely a survival item.  Many people were barefoot when all was said and done, wading through water and debris filled with danger, shoes would be an absolute survival issue!  Finding the correct size shoes?   You’re kidding right?  If you have a choice are you going to take shoes out of desperation that don’t fit you if there are shoes there that do!  

I think we have to take into consideration the situation and the psychological impact of what is occurring.  I am absolutely certain that if any of us found ourselves in the situation, as those people perceive their situation, we would be capable of doing all sorts of things we would never do here and now.  

Consider for a moment that some of these people may have been born and raised in New Orleans; some may never have been out of the city.  Everything they know is gone, there is no food, no water, they have nothing.  They have no radio, no news; they are unaware of the devastations depth or the response to it.  To them, in their world view, Armageddon itself has occurred.  They don’t have the ability to step back and look at the picture from a rational or logical perspective any more than the limited CNN producer did.  They are in the moment, in their truth.  

A comment was made about a man taking a TV, think about it, if this man was rational he would know he has nowhere to go with the TV, no power to turn it on, no signal to receive if he did.  What drew him to the TV of all things?  To me it would be obvious that the TV represents a connection to the out side world, TV is the American comforter.  It wasn’t a rational choice but it was a choice of a man who was not likely himself.  

These people need water, food, shelter and clothing not jail and police!  Now there is the other element those who took guns and are roaming the street.  Some of them may be acting out in a flight or fight instinct, and yet they are still dangerous and that has to be stopped.  We do however, in our system of justice, look at the circumstances of a crime, not just the crime itself when assessing a proper punishment.  May all those who think we should round them up and send them away for life never have to experience the loss of their whole lives in order to find out what they are or are not capable of in the most desperate of circumstances.

The same people who have no understanding of the immensity of the psychological impact also want to blame these people for not leaving to begin with.  We have all had lapses in good judgment that were not recognized as such until after the fact, that simply makes us human.  Once again however this doesn’t even take into consideration the fact that thousands of people didn’t have vehicles, or had vehicles and no money for gas to evacuate, and more had no money to stay anywhere had they left.  There were also those too sick to get themselves out.  

Before the storm hit I saw hundreds showing up at the superdome, I thought to myself why are they not loading these people into school buses, and city buses and evacuating them, when they know the superdome could flood.  Those who did not have the means to get themselves out of the city were not taken out by the government that ordered the evacuation.  After the fact they start moving people with school buses, too little too late.  So the powers that be that complain about the desperation and looting, in fact greatly contributed to it.  They also had lapses in good judgment.  At this point there are no business owners that will be wandering back to New Orleans any time soon; they are also the most likely residents to have good insurance.  What difference does it make if those clothes and shoes go onto the backs and feet of people who have NOTHING?

People who are so caught up in the perspective of business and money that they have lost their ability to see with the eyes of human compassion are a sad lot indeed!  In the midst of the destruction stood police, who stood back and did nothing to stop the looting.  Why?  Because in the mist of devastation that great, with their radios not working and their cars underwater, their uniform was just clothing and they were humans caught in the same hell.  They understand why the people are taking what they need.  I’m certain they can imagine if it was their wife and kids, parents, or other relatives left behind with nothing in a hopeless despair.

If you think you are beyond taking anything under the same circumstances, I hope that you will be able to forgive yourself if you ever find yourself in one.  Of course for those who judge these poor people, they would likely have a multitude of options with money in the bank and likely a vacation cabin they could run to for refuge if their main home was destroyed.  Once again economic inequality rears its ugly head and those who had little, have nothing, and those who were blessed blame them for trying to stay alive.

Liberal Bias in the Media?

Posted by Engtovo on August 18, 2005

There is liberal bias in the media.  I am so tired of hearing this!  If the media is liberal then I can’t even imagine how liberal I must be!  The truth of the matter is I am personally quite conservative, although I am sure most would consider my political perspective liberal.  The powers that be like us to think we must chose sides and agree with a platform on one side or the other, but as a thinking self empowered human being, I cannot in good conscience agree with either.  I come from a perspective of freedom, which means that my choice to be quite conservative in ways, such as not drinking for example, does not give me the right to expect others to make the same choice.  Obviously we need boundaries that protect us all from real harm, and that was the original intent of laws, and the legal system of justice.  But we as a country have strayed far from protection, into the realm of total control of the masses.  That total control is now our greatest threat of real harm, and it comes from those claiming to be our protectors.

The tool of this control is the media and it is used by both primary political parties. The media is a puppet, nothing more, nothing less.  They report whatever the brainwashing machine of our society wants them to report, whether it is perceived as liberal or conservative.  If the subject is personal freedom, they will always take a position opposite of freedom. If the person or group bringing the issue to the table is a liberal group they will bring on conservatives to attack them.  If the person or group bringing the issue to the table is conservative they will bring on liberals to attack them.  

The key in discerning what is happening with the media is not looking at liberals or conservatives.  They are just pawns in the bigger game.  Look at the overall issues that they want to shift our opinions of by polarizing us.  Freedom for example is an issue that strikes deep with both liberals and conservatives if they are awake.  Both, when awakened, see things like the Patriot Act for what is it, police state legislation.  But if the population of conservatives can be convinced that position is a liberal one, then they can manipulate them into supporting the police state legislation and vice versa.  It is a sick game, and easy to get pulled into, as they bring the most outrageous people out for the sole purpose of polarizing people that have more in common than they would like to admit.

While Fox news is the most obvious in their support of anything that serves the puppet masters, there is a reason why I consider CNN to be the illuminati channel.  CNN has built a reputation for being middle of road, as absurd as that is.  They are simply more masterful at presenting the information in a way that a greater number of people are comfortable with.  What I love best about CNN is when you happen to be watching something big unfold live, like 9-11 or Waco.  If you are paying attention they will play a story or show some aspect or video clip once and then it will disappear, it will never be shown again, and will not show up on their website.  The powers that be let them know that piece is history, and it will appear as if it was unsubstantiated information that was never confirmed.  It happens with them over and over.  So if you watch carefully during breaking news you will get information that is significant once, and you better pay attention, because then they will drum it out of your mind be repeating over and over what they want you to believe.

I remember watching Waco live.  At the time we had one of the old big satellite dishes, where you had to tune to different satellites and the dish moved.  At the time there were satellites you could tune in that had the live feeds of news stations, unedited, as they came in.  My ex-husband, my brother and I were watching one of these feeds that day.  We saw the tanks approach the building, break a hole into it, and saw flames streaming out of the tanks to the building.  We sat in shock and horror; I was in tears that day as I watched live, my government, kill innocent women and children.  Some others were privy to this one time feed and one or two even managed to record it.  It was immediately cut out by CNN and never shown again as if it never existed, but we saw it happen, we know what our government did that day.  No amount of attempted brainwashing with another version can change what we saw happen that day, any more than the fairy tale that two small planes (in relation to the towers) caused the obvious controlled demolition of the Twin Towers I saw live on 9-11.

I’m not a physicist, not a scientist of any type, not an expert in demolition, not a brain surgeon, but a teenager could understand that those towers coming down from the hit of those planes is absurd!  It just wasn’t a physical possibility and I didn’t need all the information that is currently available, like the heat caused by the fire and the melting point of the steel, to know it was a controlled demolition.  It was obvious to me as I watched, even as Aaron Brown sat in utter disbelief.  Not only was it a controlled demolition, but it was a damn good one!

I am a firm believer that for some odd reason people who go into journalism are idealists.  They believe we are the great nation of the hype, instead of a flawed nation of good people.  They believe that our government has good intentions when they refuse disclosure on any number of thousands of subjects.  They believe that keeping things from us really is best for us.  They are like young children who can’t believe their parent could ever do something wrong.  I cannot figure out what it is that draws people with this propensity to journalism, but clearly they are willing to believe the best of even the most heinous of situations.  What happened to the 5 W’s and the H?  That would be who, what, why, where, when and how, for those of you who may have never been exposed to that in high school.  

Would knowing the full truth of what our government has, and is doing, shock people?  Yes.  Would they be able to handle it?  That’s a good question. Certainly some would be challenged in ways they can’t imagine.  I believe in truth and I believe that maybe it’s time for the American people to be shocked out of the coma they are living in.  As Dr. Phil likes to say, “You can’t change what you don’t acknowledge”.  We have been supporting a collective lie that is perpetuated by the media.  

From the earliest days of this nation we have allowed a lack of integrity in the presentation of information to guide our destiny. This lack of integrity led us into genocide with the native nations of the continent & the support of slavery in our inception.  From that time it has led us through cycles of oppression of people in race, gender and religion and has been used to justify endless wars.  The only way to stop this cycle is full disclosure, but don’t expect to see it from the media idealists, the media power brokers, who know full well what they are doing, or the government.  They are fully committed to keeping us in disinformation, for our own good, no matter how many people may suffer or die a horrific death from this.

Yes we must be wary of the media but not because they are liberal or conservative, but because they report anything that is given them to report, how they are told to report it, with no regard for truth or integrity.

The latest barrage from out local Denver channels (local being relative over direct TV) is an endless list of for your health stories.  From one day to the next they contradict each other but are reported as absolute scientific fact.  It is disgusting fear mongering, meant to keep you and I in an endless state of stress.  Stressed out people are easy to control, they are overwhelmed with their lives and have no fight, no resistance.  Don’t believe any of it; take responsibility for your own health and life.  

Read between the lines when watching the news and when you hear things you know to be lies, be sure to confirm to yourself consciously that it is a lie and you are not accepting it into your consciousness.  It seems simplistic to many, but it has worked well for me to use the words, Cancel, Cancel, Cancel, when I hear something on TV that I know is just pure crap.  Let go of the attempted polarization and discern what you hear from your heart, not from a liberal or conservative point of view.  You will see the real issue is not political, but an issue of big power that runs both sides, controlling what we think and how we will act out on those thoughts.  Always ask yourself who profits from this perspective.  When you dig deep you will see that those profiting support both political parties, even when particular individuals appear to be from one or the other.  Nothing is ever as it’s presented to us to by media or government in these times.  

The point?  Think for yourself, question everything, and accept nothing at face value.  Healthy skepticism is not being negative, it is being empowered.  Your other choice is to be one of the sheeple, and no self respecting human would consciously choose that… would they?
