I couldn't be more pleased.
Finally, FINALLY, CNN has broken the story, at 4:45 am PDT, earlyish in the Central and East Coast zones, straight from Mark O'Brian: Voting machines in over a dozen states can be easily and anonymously hacked into and changed. Votes can be swapped - snap! - into any desired winner the hacker would like. Halla-frickin' lu-jah!
Will this story have legs? It better!
For the stealing of the election to go as planned, the contest must seem to be fairly tight. That way, the public might find it feasible for either side to win, vis a vis the polls.
I hope nothing fishy happens on Election Day. That would be a nightmare.

Where's the Fed in Federal?
Here's some more jaw-dropping news I heard as a "rumor" and a "conspiracy theory" a while back. America: Freedom to Fascism is a recent documentary from Aaron Russo, the director of Trading Places and The Rose (not that that gives him extra credit, but the money and connections he made didn't hurt). This doc is about the payment of federal income tax.
After exhausting the brains of leading economists, tax attorneys, IRS employees and groups that are vocal in their opposition to paying federal income taxes, the conclusion is a strange one. The argument against paying F.I.T. is that there is no law requiring it in the first place. In 1913, a 16th amendment clarification was made that taxes must be paid for profits, but not for what we earn as laborers. Our labor is our property. In fact, several dozen people have successfully won tax cases because the IRS cannot produce any law on which their side is based! The mainstream press is silent, as usual.
Readers: Google Joe Lewis and the IRS and you'll find yourself fascinated but saddened.
Did anyone know that the Federal Reserve is not "federal" at all, but is a private bank that Congress somehow manufactured to print money and to put federal money into, but the taxpayer never sees a penny of profit from? I never knew that. And I am SO justified in being a conspiracy theorist now!
The newer generations flock to credit so they can be part of the American "culture." We've now gone from freeholder to employee to serf. Now we're all up to our necks in debt, but we've got a new mini-van. In March of 2005, reporter Abid Aslam wrote that "Millions of Americans could be plunged into financial ruin (from) a bill giving credit companies relief from unpaid loans." It's three and a half years later...the entire Congress, working with the Federal Reserve and banks, has enslaved the nation because they chose to ignore inconvenient facts.
Why did the congress give the authority to print money to a private entity (the Federal Reserve)? How can they prove they have the "gold" to back it up? Why have we the people allowed them to do this? Because we are so zombified by American Idol and the right kind of shoe? While we weren't looking, the Federal Reserve has taken all our gold and traded it for, as T. Jefferson said, the "ghost of money - paper." NO media, again. Congress MUST take it back. Gah. The more I learn, the more disgusted I feel. If I've got it right, the Federal Reserve is just a cartel of private banks, headed by someone the president selects from a list of names the banks give him! Somebody tell me I'm crazy!
Now here's a subject that really gets me fired up, and most people look at me like I'm a wingnut. Actually implanting a glass tube with a microchip and antenna inside (about the size of a grain of rice) may still be some years off - though the technology is in place - but putting a tiny microchip on products (described by an "expert" as perhaps being the dot on the "i" in the fine print on a shampoo bottle) is being introduced already without public knowledge. Next, they'll stick a chip on cash, so that money is not even anonymous. Soon, they'll know every tiny detail about us and our private lives - our medical records and communications with each other are already easily spied on. This IS Orwellian.
In a scene from this same documentary, we are treated to a congressional hearing about these "injectable devices." "Oh, yes, sir," the junior salesman answers jovially. "We're ready to start putting them in any time." A family of four from Florida are featured on Good Morning America as the first U.S. family to try the chip. Mom declares that it's all in defense of "terrorism." Sure, terror that your leaders and their corporate pals are going to make you into BOTS.
In a segment on vote rigging, we see another congressional hearing on the evil "black box" voting machines produced by some of GWB's biggest supporters (I bet). A congressman (I can't see who) asks if, using their technology, a vote could be stolen. "Absolutely," the employee answers. "And no one would ever know!" Of course, those of us who have seen Hacking Democracy know all about this.
The Governmental Accountability Office themselves have been quoted as saying, "The integrity of 2006 elections cannot be ensured." And, why is that? Because a 12 year old could hack into a system that cannot be examined because "security" falls under Diebold's (and others') secrecy clause.
I hope, dear reader, that you are alarmed.
Mussolini said: "Fascism should be called Corporatism, more properly, because it's the perfect merger of power between the corporation and the public."
Henry Ford said: "It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."
Just a couple of quotes for you.
So what do we mere citizens do? Force Congress to use their legal authority to shut down the Federal Reserve? I agree with Russo that we the sheeple must demand that the American people's gold be audited, and make certain that it has not been stolen, right?
And computer voting is just the scariest thing ever.
My brain hurts a lot today.

Nodding Off in Afghanistan
Oh, it's so scary to be alive these days. Deedle dee dee, deedle dee dum...
I love www.antiwar.com The title of the site is misleading. It's not an anti war board, really, it's a reference board to articles written about foreign places so you, too, can get a glimpse of the facts. They are usually stories that you probably wouldn't be aware of if you didn't have to search for legitimate news. It has some lefty articles, and Pat Buchanan, of all people, is a contributing editor. Don't let that scare you, though.
Anyway, one of the headliner articles I saw there today made me squeal. I referred to the subject in my last post. Ready? FINALLY, the approach to Afghanistan is being changed. Bush and Co. are pretending that it's all their idea, but Obama was the one spreading the truth around. FINALLY, they have decided to address the fact that Afghanistan provides 90% of the world's heroin. Gee, ya think? Huh. Maybe it would help matters out if you included that fact in your game plan, ya morons!? Granted, the poppy farmers will go berserk, the heroin trade will go berserk, hundreds of thousands of junkies all over the world will go berserk. But it's nice to know that someone is at least thinking about it. No heroin, no money. No money, no guns. BRILLIANT!
Can you imagine that this has been going on for years? That's where the heroin comes from, along with several other areas of the East Asian world. The U.S. is at war with the Afghanistan people (the Taliban) - or at least that's who we're blowing up - yet we allow them to go about their business making 90% of the world's heroin? Isn't there also a "war" on drugs, ya half-baked hypocrits? Does this remind anyone of any other patterns we've seen in recent history? Crack, maybe? All I know is that people are profitting somewhere.
*****
Oh! Remember the Muslim McCain party security dude from a couple of posts ago? The one who told the nutso McCain fans to pipe down with the bigotry and was then mysteriously kidnapped by the McCain Team? CNN's house idiot Rick Sanchez has just announced that this story really developred legs amongst the jounalist crowd. Who is he? What's with the big hush-up? Well, Rick was told the Muslim McCain Security guy is going to call him! But then the McCain people stepped in and forbade it again. WHAT GIVES WITH THIS WEIRDNESS? I guess Muslims for McCain don't like the First Amendment.
Pundit XYZ tries to explain that the McCain team doesn't want any "muslim" talk right now and thus won't let him. Never does Rick the "brain" Sanchez ever ask how the McCain team can physically prevent a citizen from talking to someone else. Am I crazy? WTF, friends and readers?

Sheena Hussein Fury's Questions for the Candidates
I must open with a new and alarming article I read today. I've been telling everyone to watch Hacking Democracy on the Internet, and now it's also being run on HBO On Demand. I watched it again yesterday. Well, today, I did a little search and found the film-maker's Web site, which is mighty scary! He and the Ohio Secretary of State have been receiving frequent death threats; Jennifer Brunner, the Ohio SOS, had her Web site shut down and recently had an envelope sent to her with white powder in it! Why? Things aren't right! Where's Kevin Spacey?
I've heard a whole lot (and understood a very little) about the economy, taxes, healthcare and foreign relations. This is all well and good, but I have a list of questions I wish McCain and Obama would answer for me, too.
1. People without kids, or private school attendees, often gloss over the public education situition. It's everyone's tax money involved, so people ought to consider that an educated society will be a healthier one all around. What exactly (beyond vouchers) do you plan to do about schools, teachers, education and the KIDS? Thirty percent of kids don't graduate from high school today. How are they going to live in the future? If you haven't been to a public school lately? They're in a terrible condition. Or has it now become acceptable to dumb the people down, so that they'll be good sheeple we can either manipulate, or jail?
2. Ronald Reagan did it all for the nookie *oops* er, he did it for the wrong reasons. To save money, he let tens of thousands of alcoholic, drug-addicted, psychotic, schizophrenic, whoknowswhatsisetic out of Veteran's hospitals everywhere. I remember all of a sudden, L.A. was full of the most care-needing people ever, demanding to be cared for! Most were Vietnam vets, so they were still young. Now, almost 35 years later, there are whole family's sleeping in the streets and in their cars. Tons of them. Does it even come up at any of your meetings? Should homeless, messed up, jobless, diseased (both mentally and physically) hard luck Vets expect no hope whatsoever from you? Like your friend over there at Lehman Bros., right? How will we finally deal with the huge homeless population in most every city?
Come to think of it, that's a state issue...most of these are State issues, but fuck it, I have something to say! The Feds should involve themselves by being aware of situations and steering the states the right away if they're unable to manage it themselves with efficiency and compassion. Are the people just meant to lie and die in the street if they happen to have a lot of bad luck (and bad choices)?
3. If you refuse to legalize marijuana, will you at least decriminalize it (thus letting hundreds of thousands of people who smoked a joint out of overcrowded prisons)? Some states have the lamest laws on marijuana. In New Mexico, for example, if you get caught with one joint, you'll do a year or longer in prison. I happen to think a drunk person is FAR more dangerous than a stoned one. And let's hear it: What is your stance on medical marijuana? What are we so scared of?
4. We are the only "civilized" country that practices the death penalty. Can we stop the barbarism now? Innocent people have been executed within the past six months. Our judicial system has become a bureaocracy - justice has been left behind. I have something else to say about prisons: Why do we see prisoners using fine new computer systems and modern tools so that they can earn a college degree? What about the kid who didn't get arrested? Doesn't that seen somehow...ironic?
5. Street gangs are becoming a bigger and bigger threat to themselves and to innocent passers-by. Whatcha gonna do about that? It has come to my attention that there is a twenty-square block area of Compton that is nowhere land. The cops don't go in there because they are out-armed. This? Is a big problem, especially when the Civil War II starts - the haves v the have-nots. The Salvadoran Salva Maratrucha gang is slashing and burning - in the most alarming manner - the parts of the city THEY want. Chicago, New York, Miami, and all the little towns in between. Be afraid!
6. If Safeway or Lucky or Ralph's want to open a fully-stocked grocery store in the posh part of town, can you force them to open one in the middle of the hood, too? One of the systematic ways our government keeps the poor powerless is to control what goes in and out of the hood. There is NO hood that has a grocery store less than 25 minutes away by bus. A woman I saw said it would be much easier to buy a gun than a tomato where she lives. Fast food, overpriced, understocked liquor stores, gun stores, boarded up windows and falling down buildings.
7. I'd like to request that all PAC's, lobbyists of ANY kind, must only be able to get on his/her knees and beg whenever the congressperson or senator arrivres at or leaves the office. And they have to wear a diaper.
8. I must say, I'm a little bit confused about this separation of church and state thing. I know that it states in the Constitution that church and state shall be separate, but then I see the Ten Commandments enscribed in Judicial buildings and I hear our kids still have to say "one nation, Under God," (which was never meant to be there in the first place!) in school each morning; In God We Trust is everywhere. I thought we were to be a nation that accepts and respects all religions. Is being an Atheist okay in everyone's book? Why must the President, or presidential candidate, have to end all speeches with "God Bless America," or "God Bless You!" That talk honestly makes me nervous. Let's allow anyone who wants to teach their kids creationism home school or go to private school. Otherwise, let's stick to the facts, shall we?
9. Whatever happened to philanthropy, corporate conscience? If a CEO makes 89 million dollars in ONE year JUST in bonuses, what happened to giving that money back to the community? Even those robber barons knew to keep the public happy. Now we're giving THEM money. There's something very wrong with this picture?
10. If you really know how to manufacture weather, will you let us know already?
I have some more things I'll need doing, but I'll save it for another day. Thank you for your kind attention.

Monday Morning Muslim Mess
Okay, so there's a McCain rally, and groups of nuts show up...duh. One particular group has placards and etc. that are bearing Obama's name, written with the addition of the Muslim and U.S.S.R. symbols (used quite creatively, really). Well, this offends some more fair-minded McCain supporters (Hooray?), and a shouting match ensues. A few minutes later, the growing crowd are approached by a Security type who is niraculously...Muslim himself! He's a Muslim with a long Muslim name and he's repeating over and over that these wackos are not affiliated with the McCain campaign, and they do not support any of this kind of Muslim calling out and that kind of shenanigans. The placard guy literally turns tail and runs away with his meager crew.
So, immediately, everyone's first thought is: who's the idiot that set this up?
CNN is about to get the actual Muslim security guard on the phone...there's a little trouble, though...uh, oh - the kid is not allowed to speak...under direct order of the big dawg himself, John McCain! How can this be? How can a senator prevent a citizen from talking on the phone to CNN? Where are we living? What kind of crazy shit is really going on? Just last night, I heard a story about CIA employees freely listening to regular, run of the mill and perhaps "humorous" telephone conservations. Hey, you never know - it could be you.
I'll say it, though Hey Hey actually wrote it first in comments. I don't disagree with anything the Rev Wright has said, really. God damn America?! Everyone thinks that on April 15th. Yeah, sometimes I think to myself, "God damn America." I think it when people get shot in the street because our ghettos are a shame upon America; the state of education is damnable; building more prisons than schools is damnable; all these homeless people - mostly vets, but families now are damnable. What, are we supposed to stand up and applaud the crappy way this country has been handled?
Why aren't we allowed to criticize? Why must we all be religious and somehow equate religion to political power?
I'm gonna go hug me some Iraqis. Maybe some Iranians and Syrians...
