Dear Friend and Reader:
Let’s put the pattern together. During a presidential campaign with just one candidate, John Edwards was visibly outed last week, erasing his political career and thus any possibility of this friendly white guy perfectly balancing out the Democratic ticket. Then Bill Gwatney, chief of the Arkansas Democratic Party, is assassinated and his killer killed by the police an hour later. You mean all those talented cops couldn’t bring in one guy alive?

Then a war flares up between who? Russia and the former Soviet state, even more former country of Georgia, and the (as in our) Army, Navy and Condi are all sent in? Um, what? All of this is in the run-up to an eclipse of the Moon: eclipse drama, but also the run-up to the nominating conventions and frankly there is no Republican candidate or campaign, there are just eight years of disaster in the wake of the current band of idiots.
Eight years of 9/11 and Iraq and no WMDs and Afghanistan and whatever the holy hell we have no clue about. And now Russia is offering the choice between it and Georgia, and the United States is choosing…Georgia, effectively reviving the Cold War. I guess we conquered Afghanistan and Iraq, skipped Iran and went directly to Moscow because hey…whatever works. Especially when you’re in a pinch. We have to be “at war” to elect a Republican because Karl Rove knows that the American public does not like to change leadership during times of war. Deceptive and desperate, boys. That is how you look.
Let’s use the astrology chart for the assassination as the epicenter of all of this. Earlier today, when considering (or attempting to consider) this chart as just the chart for a shooting, I was wondering what the Leo Sun was doing up in the 10th house. That is the house of the king, in the king’s sign, and hey the Sun is his planet, too. Baby Bush may not be the actual boss, but he’s the titular boss and the public face of the cabal that is in charge, so we know who or at least what that Sun represents.
Not that they’re capable of opening their mouth and telling any more of the truth than they need to in order to deceive everyone they can, but it just seems really odd that the Sun is up there in all its glory — opposite Neptune. Oh, Neptune in Aquarius — the sigil of the public on Prozak.
Chiron in Aquarius is close behind, though, the sigil of the public awakening — of consciousness in pursuit of delusion. All of this, in the mix of an Aquarius eclipse of the Moon: the release from some old tribal pattern and the collective mind opening enough at least to yawn with a moment of wonder.
What we are seeing unfold in the “news” is the Republican ’08 campaign. I am willing to accept not just that the flare-up of the Georgia conflict is a Neocon ploy, a big game of wag the puppy farm, but also that it’s part of a pattern of political manipulation that includes, basically, all of the above.
I suggest we be Acurious because something is definitely Aqueerious.
Yours & truly,
This is way over my head. You mean Georgia honked off Russia to force Bush to attack Putin?
The first person I thought of in all of this was Hillary, especially since her name will now be on the ballot at the Dem convention.
Wagging the dog, but for whom? It made me think of the saying, “no man is an island” that I researched awhile back for my brother’s book. This in turn led me to the origin of “For Whom the Bell Tolls.” We are all diminished because of these things that are happening. The bell tolls for all of us!
“No man is an Island”
This is a quotation from John Donne (1572-1631). It appears in Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions, Meditation XVII:
“All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated…As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come: so this bell calls us all: but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness….No man is an island, entire of itself…any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.”
and
“Perchance he for whom this bell tolls may be so ill, as that he knows not it tolls for him; and perchance I may think myself so much better than I am, as that they who are about me, and see my state, may have caused it to toll for me, and I know not that.”
Hemingway made both sayings popular in his book, “For Whom the Bell Tolls.” We are all pointing fingers and thinking we are good, but the bell could well be tolling for all of us. It is later than we think.
Gardener, agreed re Bilerbergers / CFR / Trilateral Commission / Bohemian Grove angle. But this gets difficult to explain and it’s supposedly tinfoil hat territory. I followed the Trilateral for many years, tracking some of its members and the astonishing number of them who made onto every presidential cabinet from Carter (when the commission began, a Rockefeller project) to Clinton, including the Reagan and Bush administrations. I once had a very funny moment busting up a Bruce Babbit press conference by asking the wrong question (about why Trilateralists dominated the cabinets of both Big Bush and Babbit’s own boss, Clinton). He laughed at me and walked away from 10 reporters.
When the Neocons took over, something shifted. There was a coup within the power structure, and another philosophy took over. There seemed, on the one hand, to be a split; I think that the Neocons may have a similar agenda (business and domination), but they are less subtle about it, less skilled and more self-centered rather than thinking for the whole lot of them; all the “have mores,” not just a few companies and families.
Anyway, I am using the word “Republican” as a loose fill-in for the One World Government types who want to be that world government, but I still think we are dealing with a smaller, breakaway sect of pseudo Trotskyites that is very much out for its own survival now, and whose viewpoint is fundamentally nihilistic. There is definitely a ruling elite, it has a power structure, and like in any human (or animal) community there are politics, there is a pecking order, and things change and evolve with the times. The locus of activity, the epicenter, change; people die (some seem to live unusually long); powerful thugs come along and get organzied; certain greedy types get tired of the status quo and want to be the Big Guys. And I do think the Bush crime family allied to the Neocon mob is head and shoulders above the rest at the moment.
Watch – it will be the fundamentalist Christians who save us. :-))
Fascinating tidbits from Brendan O’Neill that seem to point towards dogs with wagging tails etc

“The problem with this fairytale script that is being cut-and-pasted on to the horrendous massacres of people in South Ossetia and Georgia is that it is almost entirely wrong. Georgia is no free-spirited, democratic republic, but an increasingly authoritarian regime that bans overly critical media outlets and criminalises opposition parties (4). Russia is acting not from an imperialist, expansionist standpoint but out of desperation, behaving recklessly because it feels its sovereign authority challenged by numerous ex-Soviet republics.
And, most importantly, far from Western involvement being the solution in Georgia, there has already been far too much of it: Washington’s arming, goading and cajoling of former Soviet republics has intensified instability across the Caucasus and Central Asia and around the rim of one of the most populous, powerful nations on Earth: Russia. “
I don’t see it as Republican as much as “Bilderburg Group”. France and Germany blocked Georgia from being accepted as a NATO nation, against George Bush’ wishes. Would being a NATO member have provided Georgia with an ounce of protection? Would Putin have invaded a NATO country? France and Russia had signed an agreement with Iraq to restore the oil fields prior to the American invasion. That plan came to a halt with the invasion. Now, American troops are on the way to Georgia. There is so much more here than meets the eye, but just look at who controls the banks, 100 percent of the media, and most of the internet!
Check this video out. It showcases Robert F. Kennedy Jr. speaking out about media control.

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time
Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended
our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost
forty years.”
“It would have be en impossible for us to develop our plan for the world
if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years.
But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a
world government. The supranational sovereig nty of an intellectual elite
and world bankers is surely preferable to the national
auto-determination practiced in past centuries.”
