Michelle Bachman to Give Up Congressional Seat

"Your Inside is Out and Your Outside Is In" - so is perception in the psychic realm.  This line while prophetic- - is exceedingly difficult to express in a physical, actual sense.

It is better to be Eccentric than to be Hyperbolic in your information processing abilities using the Pure Logic of Astrophysics.  Therefore a preacher who engages in "Hyperbolic rhetoric" is by logical deduction just - - Wrong.

If you are a hyperbola - - you are Free and on your own.  Once you become a Circle - - - the person who captured you Assumes your Identity.  All of your "Aces in the Hole" now go to Him.

If you are inside a Circle- - - all you see is a Dead Line- - the very concept of "a circle' as such is not even that relevent to you considering the overriding fact that you are trapped.

One normally cannot speak about "Light" metaphorically - - without also having the necessary presence of a Localized Source of that Light.  If God is not Localized- - how therefor can God be Light?

Michelle Bachman is stepping down from her House seat in Congress and will not be running in 2014.  I heard this when I first got up this morning on Stephanie Miller.  One can only hope that other tea party people would follow suit and give up, too.  Bachman had spoken of plans to emigrate to Oregon in protest of Minisota’s gay marriage law.  Bachman has said some strange things over the years.  She said Elvis’ birthday was in mid August.  She said that America’s founding fathers “worked tirelessly to end slavery”.   She claimed that the United States still has an embassy in Iran when we haven’t had one there since 1979.  These tea party types like to invent straw men that aren’t there.  She spoke of a doctor who spent two hours on the phone with IRS trying to get a patient’s number for a form.  Any doctor that wouldn’t have a whole staff of people to do that- - would be too stupid to be a doctor anyhow.  My guess is that this story, like the others, never happened.   Of course that Minisota bridge collapse occurred in Bachman’s district and nothing had been remedied.  Apparently the bridge is still out.  And there is more than roomer that Bachman is in a lot of legal trouble.  She won her 2012 reelection by the skin of her teeth.   Apparently democrat Jim Graves is the guy likely to replace her next year.  She is in trouble for having staffers pilfer some E mail list of some Home Schooling outfit- - and now the company wants to be paid for having surrendered a lucrative mailing list.  Bachman is also in trouble for taking illegal Political Action Committee money for her campaign.  I guess this is one campaign law she technically violated that the Courts haven’t wiped off the books yet.  So she’ll follow in the footsteps of Gingrich and others and become a lobbyist.

In 1951 Gen Mac Arthur said, "There is no substitute for victory"  And if there is also "No substitute for God" and "God brings the victory" then being denied victory- - - then it may well turn out that I am lacking something for which there is no substitute.  So wouldn't I look elsewhere for it?

If you are in a war with "Terrorism" then - - once achieved there would be nothing left to be "terrorized" in the world, would there be?

If you win a Victory over Death Itself - - - would Death continue unabated?  Does not winning a victory over a person , place, or thing, pretty much guarentee irrelivence of that person, place, or thing for any time henceforth?

Behold it is prophecied "He will make an end to Sin".   Does Sin exist today?  And if I tell you that the Antichrist may be found standing at a mail box at the corner of Western and Lincoln - - what would one expect to find at the corner of Western and Lincoln?

In an imaginary conversation with Pastor Mark - - I envision his telling me of people who have had stunning turnarounds in their lives, and this has happened.  But as for me- - I guess when it came to investing whether there was anything to Christianity found out "There is no "There" There!"

This is the first story I’m typing this afternoon though not the lead story I’ll post.  I’ve had shall we say a change of heart on a vital issue based upon learning all of the relivent facts that up till now I haven’t cared to notice.  This involves FOX reporter James Rosen.  Someone said that there should be a Whistle Blower shield law.  But when the avowed purpose of a news reporter is to sabotage a Presidential administration, this is a horse of an entirely different color.  This is the case with FOX reporter James Rosen.  His avowed purpose was “To lodge a protest against President Obama and expose them to force this country to alter its foreign policy”.  I don’t know what that means, but that’s what FOX claims now.  First of all this is an old story.  It’s only been dredged up in the past couple of weeks seemingly for no other reason now, other than to make trouble for this President.  James Rosen met with this CIA guy Kim- - who announced that he finally managed to find a way to infiltrate the North Korean government and be “our eyes and ears on the ground”.  This was very sensitive business- - and national security is paramount.  They charged Kim in 2010 and his trial begins in a couple of months.  But Holder announced that James Rosen would NOT be prosecuted.  He has nothing to fear from the government, and if he’s implying to the contrary he’s lying.  They tied Rosen to Kim because they both used the same secret access card.  They did go through G mails to obtain more evidence on Rosen and Kim.  Of course FOX was the same source that revealed that Navy seal’s real name, who wrote that tell all book about the Bin Laden capture.  CBS even after the fact said they would not reveal his name.  I blame Glen Beck for my lack of knowledge of the facts on this one, because any opportunity these tea party people have to lie to you, they will.  (Selah)

Judy raised the issue that Christian groups were being targeted by the Internal Revenue Service, and that right to life groups were also being targeted.  According to Randy Rhodes this isn’t possible because Christian groups file under a different tax code.  That’s 501C3 rather than a C4.  So any group that is religious in nature would use that classification.  Randy Rhodes has had to spend a lot of time “draining the swamp” as it were, trying to straighten out callers who live in a world of lies and propagate them.  Hopefully she’s made an impression on some.  You know it’s possible (I’d really hate to think this) that the reason why these tea party groups don’t care at all about ecology or global warming- - or our collapsing infrastructure either, which would concern any rational person looking at the facts- - is because they believe they can be like the people who think they know when “The Rapture” is coming- - and therefore want to leave the planet a mess, just like bad apartment tenants who trash the place just before they move out.

There are a couple of stories from that Mexican lady with the Janis Joplin accent today.  She really cares for children- - as evidenced by the violent things she’d do to people who go about hurting children.  The way she looks at it, a criminal offender- - should be punished based on the months or even years of fear they have forced a child to live through.  Now there is this eight year old named Gabriel.  He’s only eight and just starting out in life.  But his life was snuffed out before any of us knew which course his life would take.  Some Christian types believe that “If God knows you are destined to commit some dastardly sin- - he will take your life, if you are Saved, before you get a chance to carry it out”.  Needless to say neither I nor any same person thinks in these terms.  This kid had a mother- - whom the Latino host refers to as an “animal” or more to the point - - a “bitch” in the generic sense- - who gave birth to a lovely son named after an angel, and wasn’t worthy of him.  Her boyfriend beat the boy and put cigarette burns in his body, and liked to shoot him with beebee guns that would leave little round pock marks, that his teacher saw.  Often child services were called but they did nothing.  One time the mother’s boyfriend beat the boy almost to death.  He was unconscious - - clinging to life when the fire department broke down the door and rescued the lad- - only to have him die a few days later.  And then we have the case of the five teenagers- - four of them were seventeen and one was sixteen.  Two of them were sisters.  Four of them attended Irvine High School.  The driver has some Aribec sirname, and didn't have a drivers license.  They were intending to head out on a triple date but one of the boys called to cancel at the last minute.  His father wanted him to stay home and study.  Today he is the only one who remains alive.  The others were killed in a horrendous car crash where they ran the car into a tree and it “split the car in half”.  This is somewhere along Jamboree Road.  She was talking about “spiritual vibes” and the spirits that occupy the Irvine area- - are much friendlier to the Romulans- - than the snooty types that live “south of the Freeway junction”.   So I’m told the Spirits in this area match the snooty mood of these ultra conservative rich types that live in their cloistered communities in South Orange County.  That whole area has this sort of “21^st Century Moscow” feel to it.  All the houses look alike, and all the same color- - and there is a plasticity of the environment that is nearly unparrelled.  If anybody asks it in a trivia question Newport Beach is the domain of the Reigel Sixers, not Huntington Beach as some might suppose.

I’d like to clarify my beliefs about en-grams.  Perhaps me and Ron Hubbard define these just slightly differently.  I define them as “the recollection of incidents, that either have happened or that you have psychic foreknowledge that Will happen- - and derive from there some “Message” or moral imperitive as to what you need to Do in light of this knowledge.  However I have come to suspect that Scientology defines en-grams slightly differently as “programs- - or mental propaganda- - that’s received into your head through some kind of unconscious trauma.  The difference might be seen looking at an actual - - Computer Program.  I’m going back and looking at the Code of the program.  Ron Hubbard is looking at the actual execution of said program, which may bear little visual resembelence to the actual Program Code.  In believe this “code” is what you might call (follow the metaphors here) the “Real Image” in the psychic realm.  Now- - nothing can be perceived- - not even a Real Image- - for something like “Some kind of Mind there” (to quote Mc Cartney) to process the information and TELL you that there IS something there and it IS real.  It’s like- - would an apple taste like an apple if no human being ever tasted one?  I guess it would.  But this fact would be unknown.   If we use the optics metaphore- - the Object is the material world.  The lens is your Brain - - your recteliniar cortex or whatever that produces images.  The “Real Image’ is the psychic world.   Back when I started blogging I would speak of a “Sixth dimension of the psychic realm”.  Now I say this “realm” is a co exual to the Higgs boson particle - - - that is not subject to Time.  Many people including myself have believed “Well if I’m reincarnated I’ll be smarter next time around from all I’ve learned”.  But think about it.  How many times do you think you’ve been Incarnated already?  Have you learned anything or did you have to “grow up all over again” in this life?  (Selah)  I know, it’s frustrating when you think about it.  To complete the analogy- - -  the lens of your eye in this material world is just that.  But all it sees in the psychic realm most of the time is Itself.  That is- - it just sees Its Own Color and no one else’s.  It can be argued that for me or you or anybody- - YOU are the only thing you can depend on that’s really REAL to you.  But if you’re in the psychic realm- - - or rather- - - you move a Distance- - FROM this Real Image - - - and look at it.  (Some would call this “putting it in perspective)  This “Distance’ is as it were the Other Side of the Ether or Higgs bozon.  It’s the other side in terms of Mass - - and Mass under Einstein is connected with a lot of stuff.  Just take my word for it here.  (too much to cover)  Now to complete the optics analogy - - -  there is no REAL Image at all unless your Mind is Far Enough from the Object- - - to bring it into psychic focus.  But most of the time - - we use both our psychic sense- - AND the lenses of our eyes, or one might say two lenses- - and we see an apparent image- - - in a “Different Place” from where the Real Image is.  This “Different Place” stands for the three physical dimensions. 

America's "Heartland" Still Is a Prejudiced, Racist Cess Pool

Randy Rhodes believes that the LAST thing these republican “tea party” types want is a “simplification of the tax code”.  What they usually mean by this is the instituting of a flat tax, which has been the pipe dream of the right wing for the past hundred years.  But in truth most couples use the standard deduction and don’t itemize anyhow.  Only the rich do that.  So all of those pages and pages of tax code they go through- - are not to find out how to Pay their taxes, but how NOT to pay their taxes.  And so they get cash refunds in addition to not having to pay any income tax to begin with.  President Obama wants to eliminate these big deductions for the ultra rich and to cut the corporate tax from 35% to 28%.  The Republicans during the last campaign said THEY wanted to do just that, but when it came time for them to put their money where their mouth was, they voted against eliminating ANY taxes for the rich.  How many times has this President done just what the Republicans once advocated- - only to still have these tea baggers perpetually mad at him anyhow?   Rush Limbaugh the other day said that the Democrats actually WANT this immigration bill to fail because - - if you can follow this “If it fails in the Republican house then the President can get on the stump next year and decry the failure of the immigration bill and say it’s all because of Republican obstructionism”.  Rush has said that it’s important that this Immigration bill NOT happen because “It will mean so many new minority voters that Democrats will win all subsequent elections”.   Rush once said that he’d grand these people legal status “If you put a provision in the law that they could not vote for the first twenty five years”.   How nakedly transparent can you get?   If you want to talk about “Entitlements” well- - how about feeling “Entitled” to thumb your nose at the US tax law- - and to funnel countless political donation funds through a “legalized money laundering system” where neither the presence of all this dirty money in the campaign- - nor the donors who give it- - - is known by anyone.   How can these people on the Right like Rush - - continually tell the LIE that “The IRS denied approval of our 501C4 status” when ALL of the groups were approved.  And of the 276 groups targeted by the IRS - - 202 of those groups were NOT conservative!

The United States has a serious security briech because Communist China has copied at least eight or nine of our newest and most secret military weapons, and the similarity of theirs to ours is striking.  Only the names have been changed.  It would seem that perhaps the Obama administration could stop investigating FOX news or the Associated Press long enough to spend a little more time investigating China's computer piracy- - because they have gotten away with so much, and this President doesn't seem inclined to do anything about it.  There is almost this "se la vi" feeling about it, like a normal every day happening.

There was a horrific train derailment near Baltimore, Maryland today, culminating in a horrendus explosion that shook the ground for miles around and caused much structural destruction.  There has been a rash of rail derailments and mishaps lately - as you well know from just watching the news - and one has to wonder why, since obviously there are in general fewer railroads in opperation these days, yet the safety factor seems more problematical all the time.  Perhaps we need to institute new safety procedures here.

Home prices are up between ten and seventeen percent over the past year.  The stock market is up.  Jerry Brown is continually surprised at how much revenue the State of California is taking in.  Because of this- - economics is an almost toxic topic for the Tea Party right now.  They haven’t breathed word won about the economy in months.   Since the President’s popularity numbers are also rising, you’d think that just maybe the Democrats might be poised to take back a lot of House Seats in congress next year.  But few people are expecting any miracles like that, because we’ve seen disaster occur in so many elections these past four years.  The tea party pretty much has defined all the issues- - - meaning that any liberal or progressive is starting out playing defense- - and having to dig himself out of a very deep political hole.  I don’t have a particularly good feeling about the Kings and the Sharks tonight even though the game is being played on our home turf.  It’s funny how the road team almost always managed to take at least one game- - and often that one game turns out to be a pivotal - - and deadly one.

CORVALLIS, Oregon (Reuters) - An Oregon teenager accused of plotting a Columbine-style attack on his high school was charged on Tuesday with attempted murder and possession of a destructive device and ordered held on $2 million bail.  Grant Acord, 17, was advised of the charges against him during a brief hearing in Linn County Circuit Court in Corvallis, Oregon. Acord was not physically in the courtroom but appeared via closed-circuit television from a secure location where he was being held.  The high school student did not enter a plea at the request of his attorney and spoke only a few words in response to questions from the judge about his understanding of the proceeding. He was ordered back to court on June 4.  Acord was taken into custody at his mother's home on Thursday after police got a tip that he had produced a bomb and was planning to detonate it at West Albany High School, some 70 miles southwest of Portland.  A search of the residence in north Albany turned up six home-made explosives, including pipe bombs, and bombs made with Draino, which doesn’t sound fun at all.  Molotov cocktails and napalm bombs under the floorboards of Acord's bedroom, authorities say.  In their search of the residence, officers also discovered diagrams of the high school, which "led us toward the conclusion that he was planning a Columbine-style attack," according to Captain Eric Carter of the Albany Police Department.  Carter was referring to the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School near Littleton, Colorado, in which two teenagers armed with guns and home-made bombs killed a teacher and 12 other students before committing suicide.   "He was definitely following a detailed checklist," Carter said of Acord. "It appears he had a systematic, well-documented plan, this was not just an errant note."  

The whole George Zimmerman trial begins in Sanford, Florida on June 10^th.  Today Zimmerman’s attorney petitioned a lady judge trying to get a continuance, and was denied – twice.  David Cruise believes the attorney was trying to talk down to the judge, and it would have served him right if he’d been cut off in mid sentence.  The motive for the delay in the start of the trial is so that the attorneys can corrupt the jury pool with racist and prejudicial propaganda against Trayvon Martin, in that bastion of racism, Sanford, Florida.  That’s about as sleazy a motive as you can get.  It seems that Papa John’s pizza doesn’t know how to be civil to their pizza buying public.  Martin’s father had ordered delivery of a Papa John’s pizza and paid with a credit card that included a 21% tip for the delivery boy.  But on the phone with a fellow employee just afterward there were racial slurs exchanged, and apparently the two employees even made an impromptu disparaging song about Martin with liberal use of the N word.  Papa John’s fired the two employees.  However I and others are offended at Papa John’s for something else entirely.  Management was going on and on about how Obama’s affordable care act would raise the price of a ten dollar pizza by a whopping - - eleven cents.  Just a week or so the store I go two raised the price of a box of crumb donuts by fifteen cents, and I went ahead and paid it.  Clearly Papa John’s isn’t concerned about their customers having to shell out an extra dime and penny for a pizza.  They just like taking political pot shots at this President, and are unabashadely pro Mitt Romney.  And as far as I’m concerned- - I don’t care to patronize any business that crams either politics or religion down my throat. 

It seems as if the royal nanny making preparations for the new arrival to the Royal Household will be using hand folded cloth diapers for the new baby, and not Pampers or any convieniece product.  The Royals are very traditional, and since William and Kate don’t know the sex of the baby they probably didn’t have amneo sentesus.  Of course Samantha Brady was trying to foist amneo sentesus on a pregnant teenager, when the procedure is particularly risky.  Of course given the longevity of the Brits these days- - whether that new royal law allowing females equal standing to inherit the throne- - - this most likely will not happen till late in this century- - and by then the Brits may have decided they’d had enough of all the royal pomp and ceremony and eliminate it entirely. 

In soap land, Christian Di Mira had a regular “come to Jesus” moment.  She decided that what she was doing playing these petty little games with John Black wasn’t appropriate conduct to engage in on the eve of her wedding.  So she threw him out.  Black was mad and wasn’t going to take it sitting down.  So he got physical with her and decided to restrain her from getting out of the room.  Voices were raised.  I thought he was going to sexually assault her there and then, but luckily two Hotel dicks showed up at the door, and asked Christine what the problem was and she said “Restrain that guy - - he’s dangerous”, which is just what they did.  But alas sometimes when you truly repent of a sin and feel “Free at last” of it- - - THAT is the time that God decides to lower the boom on you to make you pay for all your past offences.

 

The Danger Is Real

They now have five foot snow banks in upstate New York, and have gotten three feet of fresh snow in upper New York and in Vermont in the past couple of days.  Meanwhile there is major flooding going on in America’s heartland.  Perhaps the worst flood crisis we had was in July of 1993, which was like a hundred year flood.   But now we have all sorts of what used to be regarded as “hundred year weather events” every few years.  Hurricane season starts in a few days and they say it’s going to be a bad one.  Right now more violent tornadoes are predicted for northern Kansas and in Nebraska.  And there is a whole violent weather system stretching from this area into about Ohio.  So I was curious when they said they had Steve Milloy the author of the “junk science” website, invited to speak at some luncheon, on C-Span.   This guy was positive that global warming was a hoax and that the whole idea that earth is an ego system that has to stay in balance lest it be polluted, this Steve Milloy regards as a gigantic hoax, and thinks the whole “sustainability argument” as he calls it, is just another political ploy.  Of course like Rush Limbaugh he says “Basically Americans are divided into two distinctive classes- - there are liberals and conservatives, and that’s about it”.  He says that “High school students know nothing about environmentalism, and when they graduate college they STILL know nothing, but now have become political pawns and tools of the left.  I’m listening to all of this and curious how he is going to “make a fool of the ecology movement” and put us all to shame bowling us over with charts and figures.  Well, this guy had none, and I mean absolutely none.  His whole speech was nothing but blather and bluster.  He attacked that Population Bomb author Paul Erilck, whose 1968 book prognosis failed to come to past.  OK I’ll grant you that Paul Erlick knows nothing about the economy, as least when it come to metal price speculation.  But this and every other so called “example” he had was tangential and anecdotal.   He failed to point to any real credentials that he had to speak on ecology- - - and admits arriving at the party late.  His background was in business as a Wall Street broker or something.  He has kind of a Mitt Romney background serving on a lot of right wing committees and pitching his “reports’ to the government, and when they reject his reports he cries “political agenda” or something.  He spoke at length of some land in Patagonia in Argentina about using forest land for harvesting.  But then his pet organization fell on hard times and Goldman Sachs acquired the land.  And they handed it over to an ecology group- - and Steve regards this as “mal feasence’ or something.  He said that Silent Spring by Rachael Carson was a complete lie, and nothing in the book came to pass.  He said that eliminating DDT is responsible for the deaths of millions of Africans.  He said that the bald Eagle wasn’t threatened by industrial pollutants but as far back as 1916 was almost extinct through over hunting.  And he also said that due to wonderful breakthroughs like hydrolic fracturing- - we have so much oil and gas now that - - - we now export it.  He never quite got around to explaining why gasoline wasn’t yet back down to $1.50.   At one point he said “I’m not going to go into any details on global warming”.  Of course he mocked the idea of the 350 line for parts per million for CO2 or something.  Now we have passed the four hundred PPM mark, when the absolute maximum the planet can sustain is 350 ppm.  Of course he from there went on to say that basically conservatives were the producers and the liberals were the takers in America, and did a lot of Al Gore bashing.  The only vaguely redeeming thing is that he isn’t a “ranter” like a Mitch Mc Conell or Rick Santorum, or Rush Limbaugh, or Glen Beck.  

Judy sent me three letters, one was on this James Rosen reporter from FOX news, which actually pre-dates the AP affair.  I didn’t know that.  Karl Rove is defending the news profession, and rightly so.  And I think he’s right that the liberal news media such as Bob Sheefer is slowly but surely turning against the Obama administration.  The theory now is that "each successive administration learns better how to keep things secretive than the previous administration did.  Bob Sheefer is now saying that any guest sent by the White House is a nearly useless source of any real informative news.  The whole Ambassador Rice thing is only one of many, many examples.  Each successive administration takes increased delight in keeping the press in the dark as to what it is really doing.  Here's more material.  he New Yorker reported this week that Justice seized the telephone records of five Fox News reporters and several White House staffers in connection with the 2009 probe into a former State Department contractor who is accused of leaking classified information to Rosen.  The disclosure came in a document filed in the case of the former contractor, Stephen Jin-Woo Kim, on Oct. 13, 2011, The New Yorker reports.  "I'm sympathetic to wanting to discover the leak of confidential or classified government information," Rove tells Newsmax, "but it's just really extraordinary and it was deliberate.   "They said, 'We want to make an example of a reporter — and it just really makes us happy that it's a Fox News reporter.'"    Rove says that it is just as "extraordinary" that Justice also recently seized two months of telephone records from editors and reporters of The Associated Press.    "There are very firm Justice Department guidelines that say that this can done only in the most extreme of circumstances — and then only with the approval of the attorney general."

One thing that struck me funny about Obama's national terror preparedness address of last week is that he got through the whole thing without mentioning certain obvious hot spots such as Libya, Syria, Lebanon, or Iran.  I take this is some kind of "signal" we aren't supposed to be bothered by these things- - and that if the Syrian situation turns bloodier, we are going to go right on ignoring it, just as we have ignored it for the past year, all the while having our hopes bolstered the administration would indeed "do something if things got bad enough".  Well, the Jews thought the same thing about "God" during the build-up to World War II and we know how that turned out.  Pressure on the White House to arm Syrian rebel groups is intensifying after a surprise visit by hawkish US senator John McCain and fresh reports of chemical weapons attacks.   The Republican war veteran met rebel leaders inside Syria to discuss their calls for heavy weapons and a no-fly zone to help them topple President Bashar al-Assad and bring the bitter civil war to a conclusion.  McCain's office confirmed to the Guardian that he had slipped into the country in recent days but declined to comment on the outcome of his talks with the rebel groups or whether it had hardened his views on arming them.  The Arizona senator has been leading efforts in Congress in recent weeks to force Barack Obama to intervene in Syria following reports of alleged chemical weapons use by forces loyal to Assad.  As the most senior US politician to have visited Syria, his intervention is likely to strengthen the hand of hawks in Washington at a time when parallel efforts are being made by the French and British governments to persuade the European Union to lift the arms embargo.

I had the Bill Handel stand-ins on, and then it was a pretty good chunk of a rerun Rush Limbaugh I’d never heard, where he says that FOX news is the number one cable station even with only 2.7 viewers.  This means the advertising cable dollar is sliced pretty fine.  Rush Limbaugh says the reason why advertisers stay with liberal shows and shun conservative shows like his is because “These advertisers are all run by feminists”.  He accused the President and Democrats in general of doing and saying things I didn’t know what he was talking about.  And Rush provided no examples.  He said that “They always tell lies about me and mis-characterize the nature of this show”.  I’d like to know how his show is ‘”mis-characterized” since the evidence is there every day for us to see.  Today is Monday May 27, 2013 and being a holiday which was already celebrated yesterday, that leaves today as kind of a void.  We didn’t have a barbecue or any kind of “party” or special presentation at all.  Pete Spiegler left this morning and according to Janet he didn’t say good-bye to Janet, or to Marsha, or even James, his roommate.  But Joe Drisco said he said good-bye to him last night.  Pete left with me owing him money, which means he’ll probably never collect it.  This morning Janet gave me a capichino of powder in my styrophoam cup, and a guava nectar, and a small V8 to drink.  Stephanie Miller was in reruns on the day in March when the new Pope was about to be selected.

On KNBC they had the Grand Prix at Monaco, which could have been run “earlier today” since Europe runs nine hours ahead of us.  It looked like a smaller, tighter course than most and the announcer had a British accent.  So neither Meet the Press nor “This Week” were on.  So I decided to go with the UPN or as I called it the Unreservedly Paranoid Network.  Lindsey Graham was misconstrewing the President’s remarks on security the other day claiming the he’s said “The war on terrorism is over” and Lindsey was quick to inform us that the danger was as great as ever.  Which is strange because the President didn’t talk about either Libya, Syria, or Iran in his speech- - almost as if those hot spots were unimportant.  Dick Derbin of Illinois was there also - - who tried to defend what the President did or didn’t do with the IRS.  Of course Lindsey Graham was “sure” that this “climate of hostility toward tea party groups” was directed from the President on down.  And everybody seemed concerned about treading on the rights of reporters, and in this case a FOX reporter ran afoul of the administration.  To me it seems the president isn’t a little “tone deaf” if he doesn’t realize that Eric Holder has got to resign.  Now they were all making light of the idea that Eric Holder was launching an “investigation of himself”, as if that would be objective.

We finally know the cosmic origins of "Yes".  It's been tagged as "The 59th Street Gang" and the home planet is somewhere near the Federation though not IN it.  Other affiliated groups are the Youngbloods, Thunderclap Newman,  Judy Collins, Simon and Garfunkle, and another unidentified female folk singer from early 1966.   Concerning that mystery group from "Merin County" that Joni Mitchell - - the Carpenters and other odd-balls were associated with, we left off a name, Melanie, and I knew who she was but forgot to mention her.  My oversight.  Anyhow they are from somewhere in the constellation of Capricorn.  I noted in reviewing my blogger numbers that "The Prime Directive" got a spike a few days ago.  That post is over seven years old, but it must have recently spiked someone's interest.

National Unemployment Rate Falls to 7.7%

The national unemployment rate for February dipped from 7.9% to 7.7% and the economy added 236,000 jobs last month.  Since November the economy has averaged the addition of over two hundred thousand jobs per month.  Moe Kelly claims to have said last October that is Romney were elected President in November that his reelection would be assured and that is the President won that day, then the democrats would be perfectly poised to continue in the White House after 2017.  The reason for this is simple in that the economy- - all economies eventually recover on their own from any recession.  In this case the President took steps to shorten the recession and insure the recovery.  But besides the employment numbers you know that if you have a 401 K or IRA or a mortgage you are substantially better off today than you were four years ago, with increased capital worth.  The new minimum wage bill in my opinion could put this in jeopardy because they want to hike minimum wage from $7.50 an hour to $10.10 an hour.  This increase is far too steep, and when Bush signed the last minimum wage hike in 2007 it didn’t bode two well for the economic employment picture.  I would rather not see the same thing happening again as small businesses will be no longer able to stay in business.  Of course in the real estate markets here in California I heard there are only one sixth the number of houses on the market that there were a couple of years ago.  But to the republicans this is all bad news.  Moe Kelly claims that sequester places this rosy recovery once again in jeopardy.  I never thought the republicans would let stand such disperportionate cuts in our defense spending as opposed to other areas of government, but it seems that the Republicans hate the idea of this President succeeding with the economy, than any professed love for the armed forces they have.

The Cardinals in Rome just voted today to officially begin their Conclave to pick the next pope this coming Tuesday March 11^th.  This will not give them much time to pick a new Pontiff prior to Holy Week, which begins less than two weeks from then on March 24^th.  I guess they’re not worried.   It used to be in the old days they would lock them in from the outside, and starve them of food should they take too long to pick the next Pope.  To my reckoning it takes fully two weeks for the Cardinals to pick a new Pontiff once the Conclave process has started.  In other news Los Angeles may be the first world city to get the Summer Olympics for a third time, and that would be in 2024 when LA major Antonio Viragoso is lobbying to get the Olympic games once again for the city of Los Angeles.  Kate Middleton will be giving birth to a daughter.  Because of the change in the law allowing daughters equal footing with sons now,  this royal daughter will be the next in line to become Queen after Prince William himself passes on, which might now be, the way things go- till the waning portion of this 21^st Century.  This Royal Princess would be third in line of succession after Prince Charles and Prince William, neither one of which have even begun their royal reigns yet.   Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher will be in the next Star Wars Movie - - Episode Seven, which is not scheduled to be out till 2015.  I guess maybe Princess Leah will be in an old folks home by then. 

President Clinton signed the defense of marriage act or DOMA in large part to head off a growing more then by Republicans to make prohibition of gay marriage the next Constitutional amendment to make the rounds for approval by the states.  Also if the President has not signed this act- - Bob Dole would have received a lot more votes from marriage traditionalists like me, and I did vote for Bob Dole in 1996.  Some are quoting the former President that this DOMA bill was part of an actual strategy to strengthen rather than weaken gay rights, which were under assault at the time.  Of course is Proposition Eight were put up for a vote today it would most likely fail because since the measure passed in 2008 four and a half years have elapsed and there has been a profound shift in the opinion polls on this issue.  There was a lengthly Dr. Suis poem that was read on the Stephanie Miller program this morning- - that  and every line ended with the letters “an” or “and”.  In the poem were numerous other rights that Rand Paul has not been for including gay rights, disabled access and employment rights, and minority race rights.   Stephanie and John Fugelsang’s point is well taken that we liberals take to attacking each other when we don’t agree on issues.  It’s a natural consequence of our free thinking nature.  However when the other side marches in lock step they are more disciplined and able to accomplish more.  I generally try to make my blogs news and event driven rather than “Topic” driven, which is the same philosophy that Rush Limbaugh employs.  I am much more likely to bring up a topic if it’s been in the news lately- - and hence manifesting new relevance for you readers.

Many times a story comes accross the news wires on some complicated scientific theory or discovery and suddenly everyone becomes a self appointed expert on the subject, just as when the stock market makes new highs and it's all over the news- suddenly everyone at the office has an oppinion on the subject.  Now there is new evidence in support of the "God particle".  But as i was telling Jay, this new guy at the table after Irvin's unannounced but permanent departure,  it's an issue where you need to think before you start putting puzzle pieces together which you may be doing all wrong from the inception.  In Sketch they used to have this rule for lines that cross - - called the "bulivard stop rule".  This means you may continue, but only coming to a complete stop for a respectable period of time.  This is true- - and I want you to catch the thought image here- - - this is true because you are connecting a line from Point A to Point B, and the way Sketch opporates- - if the software isn't sure just where Point B is- - then it- - guesses, and it's often wrong. 
The whole idea in logical thought is not to "guess" needlessly because in SUDOKU - -  - your bad mental choices made now will come back to bite you in the ass later.  Most "strings' are like that- - going from point A to point B - - if you're into the string theory of the universe.  But this God particle has already been physically descriped as not a particle like a ball bearing or a "string' bur rather as a circular ring.  As I told Jay, it's one of those strange factoids I don't entirely understand myself that Gravity, rather being the strongest of the Four Basic Forces- - is in fact the weakest of the four, and various physical explanations are given for this.  Many people like to tie- - light in with gravity- - both having in common of traveling either through "empty space" or as I more logically infer- - some "medium" such as aether.  This "capacity of posession of Mass - - is said to be the key criteria in imparting what we call "Materiality" to matter.  Just so this paragraph doesn't go impossibly long I'd like to share the other brilliant thought I had at the table that I expressed to Jay, and that is this notion that for God- - - Time is like an "Opporating System' is to a computer.  It gives a template or interface- - in order to give events meaning.  As I said in September of 2004 without Time - - even Death as we know it would not have meaning.  Here is another bulivard stop alert.  Jay made the statement that "To have Time you need Motion".  This is of course ass backwards reasoning.  You - on the contrary- - need Time- - Time is an ontological necessity- - in order to even perceive Motion.  I have spoken of the idea that forward Time- - - as we know it- - - is the whole basis of Scientific Laws being in force all the time.  Jay and I both agreed that "God created the Universe and then insured that his Laws of nature and whatever, would Always be in force.  May I suggest the means of this "enforcement' - is Time.  And just as there was once a time when Computers had no opporating systems- - so there was an aeon or era when there was no Time.  As such you did not have Effects following Causes - - as we have now.  You kind of had the cause and the effect and the sequence all mashed up together.  To return to Programming once again - - a common word or vehicle in computer- - is the Array- - or Sequencing of like variables.  Time enables this "evidence chain" that law enforcement speaks - or a causal "Nexis" leading to the Outcome or Effect you see before you.  With my somewhat modified theory on the Creation of the Universe- - - it is less a Big Bang now- - where you have this seemingly random "Explosion" into directions or dimensions yet undefined- - - but rather you have "The big hyperbola swing" where there is this physical Force, which needn't even be alive or conscious- - that propells events into the "matrix" or framework that we know as Time.  The subtle distinction here is rather than "differences between the parrellel universes" totally dictated by the "randomness of the explosion of the Big Bang- - we would impute some sort of causality- - of events prior to the existance of Time- - and each event somehow generating a closed system, which we know as a Universe.  Of course Albert Einstein believed in the old Egyption proverb of "The Dice of the gods are loaded".  As I said at the table, "God doesn't play dice, except in the third "Oh God" movie, and God unlike the Devil, knew the outcome ahead of time.   By the way- - Jay was talking about how Black Holes disprove the absolute speed of light.  Technically you could say that Black Holes are "Sequestered space" meaning completely Isolated and unreachable by any logical means- - yet it Exists none the less.  I'll tell you one that got my attention about Jay is that he knew that a particular chemical formula was a Salt- - merely by looking at it.  This denotes a level of acquired knowledge most people don't have.  By the way speaking of meals, the lunch bell calls.  There is a lot more I was thinking of including here by way of background and expository example- - but the length of the paragraph would have proved unendurable for you readers.
