Lies,
misperceptions and fabrications make great history, great plays and great
country songs. Both the Bible and Shakespeare feature the ramifications of
this type of evil. And who can't sing along with Reba McEntire every word
of Bobby Russell's "The
Night the Lights Went out in Georgia?"
 From
the first whispers of the Serpent in the Garden to our belligerent
born-again President proclaiming glory behind a cheap banner on an
expensive ship, we have been transfixed by evil and misrepresentation.
While all government practices to deceive, the Bush administration's use
of falsehood and faulty perception has been particularly masterful. Bush
and his team have a grifter's confidence. This grift is a confidence game,
a swindle on the American people, unctuously seduced to fund a Rousseau-esque
fantasy that we can force men to be free. In fact, we are funding the
destruction of real national possibilities for Iraq, the future disruption
of much of the rest of the Middle East, and a new era of global conflict
and competition that will be played out with tactical nuclear weapons and
the accompanying financial and moral deficits, the effects of which we
cannot begin to imagine. "Neo-conmen" is what one reader calls them. It
fits.
Retired USAF Colonel and former National War College Professor Sam
Gardiner
has analyzed this phenomenon of con as it relates to Bush's current
adventures in democracy through occupation. Beyond the obvious
fabrications that you and I might have seized upon, Colonel Gardiner
painstakingly identifies 50 discrete and mostly successful efforts of this
administration to mislead the American people, the Congress, and the
world.
Fourteen administration lies are listed below. They represent less than a
third of the well-circulated and promoted storylines "manufactured or at
least engineered that distorted the picture of Gulf II for the American
and British people," such as:
- The link
between terrorism, Iraq and 9/11.
- Iraqi agents
meeting with 9/11 hijacker Mohammed Atta.
- Iraq's
possession of chemical and biological weapons.
- Iraq's
purchase of nuclear materials from Niger.
- Saddam
Hussein's development of nuclear weapons.
- Aluminum tubes
for nuclear weapons.
- The existence
of Iraqi drones, WMD cluster bombs and Scud missiles.
- Iraq's threat
to target the US with cyber warfare attacks.
- The rescue of
Private Jessica Lynch.
- The surrender
of a 5,000-man Iraqi brigade.
- Iraq executing
Coalition POWs.
- Iraqi soldiers
dressing in US and UK uniforms to commit atrocities.
- The exact
location of WMD facilities.
- WMDs moved to
Syria.
You
can
read Part I of Gardiner's study here, as well as
Part II,
Part III,
Part IV,
Part V, and
Part VI. Other coverage of this research can found
here,

The
Bushist Regime in Washington fascinates with glittery whirling costumes
and fantastic masks of government and foreign policy. It is a veritable
Mardi Gras of politics and intrigue, except the cheering throngs are big
political donors and world government types, and the trinkets thrown are
trillions of dollars worth of access, promises of favors and sole-source
contracts.
A
preoccupation with the lies, however, can blind us to the truths of this
administration. The truths are these.
- The mission
IS accomplished. Neoconservative objectives require a major
repositioning of U.S. military forces into Iraq, and we have done
that. Four permanent bases are being built to American standards.
These bases will be operational whether Iraq is stable and democratic,
or just another Somalia replete with warlord rule, religious
fundamentalist furor and abject poverty. The positive evolution of
Iraq is irrelevant. The neo-conmen already toasted their success at a
special Black Coffee meeting on Iraq,
held Friday morning, March 21, 2003. The real party was reportedly
hosted the following Saturday night at Richard Perle's house. Case
closed.
- Forget
A Bright Shining Lie, the lessons of Vietnam HAVE been
learned. Every point between Iraqi battlefields and American
military hospitals and graveyards is under complete State media
control. The President doesn't do funerals. The media doesn't cover
flag-draped caskets and grief-stricken families. This time around, the
State response to rational criticism - whether blacklisting Hollywood
actors, making traitors of members of Congress, or smearing people in
the street who dare raise their voices with rational questions - is
instantaneous and massive.
- For the
Bush administration and its backers, neo-conservatism is COST-FREE AND
PROFITABLE. The rest of America, the great unwashed, will kill for
it, die for it, be maimed for it, and pay for it. Without end. And
when this country can afford no more blood and treasure and offspring,
the neo-conservative policy-makers will, conveniently and without a
single hesitation, cash out and default on the whole failed project.
It's
not pretty. The night the lights went out in Georgia, the innocent died,
the guilty lived, and most importantly, the State ate well. Reba sang it
with pathos. The Bush administration sings it with triumphalism and ever
increasing hostility.
We
won't see real political improvement in Iraq until we bring every soldier
home -
all of them, now. And we won't have improvement or honor in America
until we send Bush, Cheney, their loyalists and their co-dependent
congressmen back from whence they came, with due haste and without
ceremony.
[Note
to Karl Rove, Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld: From what I am hearing, this
last is looking increasingly inevitable. Make sure "update résumé" is on
your "To Do" list.]

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many
of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The
illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings
behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage
problems, credit card issues, credit repair problems and
foreclosure. What can be
done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can control
government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel
Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years
ago. He said, "Permit
me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its
laws." Get
the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system.
It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for
each individual. Not only does this end
personal debt, it places the people first in line
as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for
you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A
New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study. Is
your credit rating bad for reasons that seem out of your control? There are
ways of credit repair,
so you can men those broken fences too. Do you want to keep your children protected
from outside forces, there are ways of protecting
your children. Do you want
to keep your sons and daughters free from 'the draft'? Check this out.

There is now an all natural, plant based extract, patented in 2004, and identified as a stem
cell enhancer. The patent states that this natural botanical and its extracts support the release
of adult stem cells from the bone marrow and into the bloodstream where they can then circulate
throughout the body, helping to maintain the body's own Natural Healing System
