He Crossed The Deadline
Let's talk about political figures who have gone beyond the pale. People say that Ronald Reagan was a great President. I just don't see it. Other than some unprecidented union busting activity with the air traffic controlers his first year in office, he really didn't give the Republicans much to crow about. Under his watch in 1983 265 Marines in Lebanon or something were killed in a truck bomb attack. Reagan's response to that was to withdraw all trops from the middle east. It would seem Reagan was continuing the same cowering tradition begun under Ford and Carter. Then he makes an alliance with one of the most dangerous men in the Middle East, Saddam Hussein. People talk about how Hussein gassed people in Iran during the Iran Iraq war but it was actually US intelligence that Hussein was relying on in order to hunt down those troops and gas them. Then of course there was Iran - Contra. After saying we're for Iraq we turn around and sell missiles to their (and our?) enemy Iran and use the money to fund the contras, whose activity in Nicaragua was banned by congress. I can't think of an incident with graver fundamental constitutional questions than this. But the worst part of this is the way Reagan "friends on the right" reacted. Rather than see Oliver North as a scoundral who betrayed his President, per change Reagan was "out of the loop" they make Oliver North a hero when he says Ronald Reagan told him to do everything he did. I've never been able to follow that. If I were Patty David I wouldn't forgove my father if all the stuff about her parents in her book is really true. In my oppinion Reagan was passing into "The Dead Zone" as early as his second term in office becomming "disengaged" and there are ample evidences of where Nancy Reagan just "took over" using astrology. In my oppinion Ronald Reagan crossed The Dead Line. I think he squandered any oppertunity in my mind to have credibility.
We then have George H W Bush. One fact came to light today I didn't know. I knew that when we invaded Iraq in Gulf War I in 1991 that George Bush Sr. encouraged the Iraqi people, both the Kurds, and the Shiites to rebel and overthrow Saddam. They took him up on his offer. Many people including me were puzzle at news occurring so fast it made our heads spin, that we're on the march one minute and the next -preserving Saddam Hussein's pride the next. We then as much as said he could keep his hilocopters and his bombers to bomb his own people with after we were gone. We didn't waste time pulling out in those days. But what I didn't know till today is that we were in fact still there and watching Saddam bomb the Kurds and Shiites, with orders not to intervene. Officers spoke of that helpless feeling. I guess God must feel impotent a lot of the time knowing Satan has been alloted vast areas of power where it's against the rules of engagement to touch him. If we had done the job in 1991 right we never would have had to go there in 2003 and this President could worry about entirely different things.
Ron Hubbard has spoken of degrees of psychic health and I think way down on the roster are things like psychic Suicide and psychic death. In late 1969 I was on a downhill slide. As you know I had been assigned group therapy in Santa Ana, run by Al Kaders and Judy Valasquez, by Vocational Re Hab. That was their "job plan" for me. I underwent a lot of culture shock and listing to the board and care people talk it was like something out of "The Strawberry Revival" by Chich and Chong. I went away thanking God I had a house to live in. If they offered you a job you had never considered doing before and you hesitated- they would hold it against you. Soon all they would do is mention a job and before I could speak a corus of people would chine in "Oh you know he isn't going to take the job". I wrote my parents a letter the turn of the decade from 1969 to 1970 with the line in it "as for the future, it looks gosh awful". That was kind of a hillbilly choice of words but it expressed my sentament about the future. I had been doing these "Suicide" cartoons in the latter part of 1969. D day was November 26th. 1969 according to these cartoons. I dropped out of college sometime this semester and delayed telling the family. After they knew I continued to lie about being in college to group into the next semester when I finally came clean in late February. In my baby book by far the most recent "document" in there was dated late 1969 the content I won't reveal to this Blog croud but let's just say I cosider it the ultimate act of betrayal. I found out in early March- - it was on a Saturday night and we were headed out to a movie - - "Number One" and "Collisus" I believe, my Mom let it slip that Voc Re Hab had closed me out. I was stunned. What I learned soon after in group was that Stanley E Abott, whom I had seen as part of a Voc Re Hab "diagnostic" in March of 1969, had declared me Scitzophrenic. Once again I felt a sense of betrayal. I was thinking "The addage is true; the quiet ones are always the worst". On Friday March 13th. I got my draft notice. I believe it was exactly a month after Febuary 13th. when I learned I had lost my student deferment. I hoped, and recorded on tape in early April my hope that I could talk to the Army psychiatrists and prove to them that I was sane. Of course it didn't go down like that. They just had their questions of a routine nature they asked and that was that. On Monday April 27th. I had a lot of things I wanted to talk over at group therapy. As it turned out they didn't meet that day. I wasn't very happy about that.
Death comes to a physical body when it is no longer capable of sustaining life. I guess it's true that Spiritual death comes when the spiritual link to God is broken. Insanity comes when the mind is unable to keep the personality together. As I have been saying a lot lately I think the Body of Christ known as the Christian Church will cease to exist in a few decades. Perhaps as little as fifty years. Nobody who has looked to the future sees Christianity in it. I think this has to be more than just coincidence. Personally I think the two party system has got to crack sometime. It's become a religion in this country. People are talking about who is going to inheret the Bush mantle among the republicans. Their two leading candidates don't look promising. One if an ex mavorick progressive who has as of late sold out to the conservatives and done some royal ass kissing. The other bullwark of the right is a three times divorced pro abortionist and pro gay rights ex mayor of New York who had his few moments of fame in his last weeks in office during the 9 - 11 crisis. How long can the right continue to milk 9 - 11? I look at the republicans and I don't see anything holding them together except perhaps hatred of liberals. I personally think we need more morality and statistics indicate in some ways the Youth is becomming more moral than they were thirty years ago. But people talk about the Two Party System in America as though it's some religion! In this internet age I don't see how certain institutions like churches and Bible teachers can stand up under the scruteny. People seem to be talking more than ever to each other but they aren't getting any smarter. I think that soon gay marriages will be the norm. Once one party cracks "the gay barrier" the whole thing will come crashing down. Once gayness becomes generally accepted I don't think the church has a chance because hetrosexuals are going to look at gays and say "You're going to criticize MY conduct when THEY exist?" Once you cross the dead line you become an exile from life, an exile from God, Country, and eventually an exile from Reality.

Marcus Goes Underground
I've been reading that "American Theocricy" book. It's divided up into three main segments. The first part involves Oil dependancy. The second part is a historical treaties on religion in America. The third part is on America's mounting economic debt. It's this part I wish to address. Debt of all sorts exploded, and I mean exploded off the charts starting about 1983. The national budget deficet soared to 216 Billion or 6.5% of G D P or something, which is twice the previous all-time record in 1946. Corporate debt ballonned, as did personal debt. What you can add to this list now is our national trade deficet with our trading partners. You might say over the past 25 years we have become credit junkeys in a big way. The best decider of the future is past conduct and history tells us that we are headed for one whopper of an economic depression, and it might already be too late. The figures are "off the charts" right now.
Elvis Presley talking to Larry Geller has spoken of karmic debt. He talked of all these religious charletons who promise you the moon if you'll give them an offering for the Lord's work doesn't go bankrupt. If there were a spiritual poverty meeter, the world would look very different through that camera lenz than it looks normally. Jesus Christ on KFI probably thinks I am after him. His karma is after him! That's the truth. He has screwed over so many people and so many facts I have absolutely no desire to be him on the day of reconning. One time in 1983 I had sort of a vision of these magnetic flux points in Orange County. The center of these flux points was about the Freeway loup interchange between the Orange and the 22 and the Santa Ana Freeway. I believe it's called the orange crush. I used to ride it every week to group therapy in 1970 but we were going to get off that. Anyhow picture a giant X or cross sckiewed about 23 degrees to the left in the four cardinal directions. Now picture another giant X or cross skiewed to the right 23 degrees. Now at the time in 1983 Calvary Anaheim was in Garden Grove on the flux line skewed to the right. When the church moved in mid 1985 the church stayed on this flux line. But in 1983 back to my origional vision- - I saw in the spirit realm this church moving to Anaheim Blvd. on a flux line skewed to the left. I saw its "charge" being disapated away. Then I saw the church heating up and sinking into a hole in the earth kind of like a China Sidrone nuclear melt-down. I had no idea in 1983 this church would actually move to Anaheim Blvd. but they did just that in 1992. The karmic Jury is still out on this one.
This is Sunday July 9, 2006 and they are having Ringo day on KLSX. They featured Ringo on Beatle Brunch but that station was having a bit of static. I decided I’d avail myself of a review of the Maharishi. In a call just before seven on the Jesus Christ show, Jesus responded to someone (gender?) who had been shot in the face as follows: “What you make of this is your own choice, but if you’re really a Christians others will see you and ask how you get through it and you’ll be able to tell them in such a way that will attract them to Christianity”. Again this is a lot of crap. I have undergone many milder “events” in my life and none of them have “attracted other people” to Christianity. People don’t think that way. If people see you have a “problem” of any sort they don’t come up to you as some lamp post for guidance to their own lives. If anything they will back away from you, as if the “problem” were contagious. But John and George were talking about the Maharishi and going to
Jesus seems to have reversed himself on mental illness. Now he says that if you preach against the church it may be because you are demon possessed. He’s backed off from his “mouse with a flash light” analogy. Maybe there’s been an “incident”.
Last night on dateline there was this one case of cops investigating a garden variety murder inThe issue has been raised whether Y-FI or whatever it’s called is OK to steal. Can you “steal” wireless internet from your neighbor. I disagree with NBC. You can’t “steal” something that’s in your own house. They are bombarding you with those radio waves wanted or not. If they mess up your equipment they won’t care. It’s like having a neighbor’s tree hanging way over your fence and you want to trim it. Leagally you have the right and I maintain this is a case of the same thing. Leo says that “support” for old software should go back ten years. I agree. But it doesn’t. Leo says that if you re-install your system runs faster. My system ran much slower when Joe did it. I really need a microphone on this computer. I already have the icon on my blue board. That way I could have asked Leo a question like they were doing for today’s show.
My personal oppinion about "riding tail winds", which is the best analogy I cam come up with, is that people are going to do what they need to do to get ahead. If you don't you are consigned by Google to the back of the bus. And you may be riding in the back of the bus all your life if you don't do something about it. Rep. Ted Stevens from Alaska is the third oldest member of congress, so I'm told. He may well be like your crazy grandpa. He's against byte equality. If the internet is just one big popularity contest, and I guess it is, I guess the more "pornographic" or "purient", the better. I know this: If you win in Las Vegas they have you investigated to make sure you aren't cheating by "their" standards. Their definition of "cheating", of course, is to come up with any way of beating the house they cant control. Challenging "the house" is kind of like going up against God. You know it's a rigged crap game in advance. Jesus and the Christians see mental illness the way Superman sees kryptonite. It's a weapon they're afraid of. It's not that they're against insanity, because they ARE insane; it's just that they want to corner the market on it, kind of like the Bomb. If they controle it everyone is safe. But as Rush says "I illustrate absurdity by being absurd". Some times you have to shake up the cobwebs a bit to keep people on their toes.

The Ultimate Golden Parachutes
What corporations are doing is mis figuring the pension funds by mixing in the pensions of the CDO's in with the workers when it comes to judging whether the "funds" have "sufficient amounts of money" to pay out, and if the don't then the workers' pensions get cut but not that of the C E O's. Also there is some Republican bill to retroactively forgive all of the suits by workers against pension funds. Of course to hear Rush Limbaugh or Larry Elder talk, pensions are too big of an expense of corporations opperating budget anyhow.
It would seem as if there is some cosmic hand directing events to insure that Christianity is the exclusive domain of right wing Republicans. I haven't heard much from Bob Dylan lately. Of course I have always disliked his song "Searve Somebody" because it contradicts every former Dylan axiom such as "Don't follow leaders". Of course the Asshole from El Paso is another pastor who has gotten where he is by preaching hate and prejudice. Christianity didn't start out that way, but this is what it's become. I think the time has come when Christianity will undergo a gigantic spiritual Civil War, and that day may already be here. All of these biggots who blaspheme the core (former) principles of Christianity every time they open their mouths such as Larry Elder, are really, in a spiritual sense, tools of Satan. This church of today which caters to the rich and con men and crooks, is just the sort of Church that makes Satan very happy. I guess I just have to wonder just as there is often some insestuous love affair between the democratic and republican parties, where God and Satan don't have some back door compromize deal going down. I think the trends of today will become increasingly more and more apparent wich each passing year and each passing decade.
Joe Lieberman has his own version of the "golden parachute" in the 2000 election. If Joe would have won, because of the fact he was running for the senate, that seat would have fallen into Republican hands, according to KTLK radio, and the Republicans could have organized the senate. At least when Johnson ran for the senate in 1960 the seat was safe regardless. It seems that Lieberman places his own electoral securety ahead of party loyalty. Now Joe is running as an independant and as a democrat at the same time. He's going to lose his primary election in Conneticut and he wants to run as an independant in the general election and get the endourcements of people such as Anne Coulter and Sean Hannity. I think Senator Joe is on his way out regardless. There'll be one less Presidential stalking horse in the senate.
The whole thing with North Korea and the seven missile launchings will probably ammount to nothing. They are flexing their muscles and are proving impotent to launch even a missile they had successfully launched in 1998. We're worried about a missile they've had for eight years. Of course our space shuttles opperate on technology of the late 'seventies. That's a real eye opener. The thing is if John Kerry did as little about the N C missile launchings as Bush has done all these republicans would be lining up to say what a weak President Kerry was.
In the Rolling Stone recently there was an artical about the Presidential election fraud in Ohio and elsewhere and I would refer you to that. All of the Exit polls indicated Kerry would be our next president and there was a 6.5% disparity between this Exit poll and the actual results. Joseph Stalin once said, "I don't care who votes' it's who counts the ballots that counts". Well the Secretary of State in Ohio was a Republican and he threw out three hundred thousand ballots right off the bat. Eighty thousand more votes were abartrarily switched from John Kerry to George Bush. Exit poll experts say such a divergence from projections is virtually unheard of, and in fact in other countries Exit polls are used to pinpoint election fraud later on. There were only four states where Kerry out performed the Exit polls. In the other 46 states Bush came out ahead. In areas where Bush was the furthest ahead the Exit polls trailed by over ten percent of the actual results. One looking at the results would say ballots were double counted that were pro Bush. But there was a massive cover-up by the media and the people at the national TV Networks in New York. In fact in internet sites they actually withdrew the actual Exit poll numbers and replaced them with other numbers so people wouldn't get suspicious. People like Tom Brokov made statements such as "Exit polls are an inexact science even today", which is not the case. The point is that this great "Mandate" of 51% of the votes Bush claims to have had is a myth. We need to insure this doesn't happen again.
This blog has gone nearly 24 hours without posting. If it continues not to post I'll "mouse" it off of this edit page and start a whole other blog where I don't have these sorts of problems. This is exactly why I don"t "stack" blog postings more than I do.
There is a letter varification on this page as well as the next page. Normally I don't have the slide bar down this low. Perhaps this has affected posting. The Joe Lieberman - Ned Lemont debate was last night and Ed Schultz is discussing it today on July 7th. a day after the rest of the blog post. I would vote for Ned Lemont if I were in Conneticut and a Democrat.
