“If this were a dictatorship this would be a heckuva lot easier… just so long as I’m the dictator”
-That Guy We Didn’t Impeach
I was intrigued by Skye’s submission yesterday. Especially the line, “I am voting for Barack Obama, but I know that I should be voting Nader.” Also, “…the fact that Nader is on 45 state ballots and was still restricted from the debates…” Some might call this pessimistic, but I have come to a conclusion that the best way to make “my voice heard” in this election is to abstain from voting. There are other candidates that are speaking out against the vast and pervasive corruption in our government today, and they have been censored out of mainstream eye. It is a fact that the major networks censored Ron Paul out of the election, look it up. Ron Paul’s not a Republican; he only joined the party to get mainstream exposure on networks, and that didn’t even work. Massive voter fraud aside, through the Electoral College, our government ensures that our vote will not count…the only way they can get us to vote is to continually scream in our faces through peppy ad campaigns and activism that it’s important, and our duty to vote. Here we are at a fork in the road, choosing the lesser of two evils because they have control of the masses through media. It’s a harsh reality that goes against everything we think we stand for... some people agree, but refuse to vote outside the Dem/GOP binary (just for you Brandon. Good talkin with ya) “don’t want to waste their vote.” I feel naïve and apathetic when I look at it that way. Some say these views are disloyal to our country. But the direction our country is moving in is the true disloyalty to our country, and both parties are full speed ahead to World War III and radical destruction our rights and freedoms as Americans. There’s so much on the line right now. This article breaks it down in pretty simple terms:http://www.infowars.com/?p=5288 “October Surprise” has traditionally been the term to describe a news event, smear, or attack that influences the election. A few examples: Gore v. Bush…days before the election they called out Bush on a drunken driving arrest. Some can be more significant, such as the October 29th video from Bin Laden which brought the War on Terror back to issue #1, which is widely considered to be the thrust Bush needed to win the election over Kerry. Current examples are ACORN, registration fraud, Ayers, all of which have the potential to influence the vote. I believe that Ralph Nader’s accelerating media attention is an October Surprise of sorts for a last minute movement to steal votes from the Red or Blue. I think “October Surprise” will take on a whole new meaning this year. National Security Presidential Directive 51 and Homeland Security Presidential Directive-20 give George W. Bush full legal authority to DEFINE and DECLARE an emergency. During said emergency, that doesn’t end until he declares the emergency over, he is given total authority over all levels and branches of government. During such an emergency, elections and changes of the presidency are suspended.
BUSH CHANGED THESE LAWS. WHY WOULD HE IMPLEMENT SUCH OUTRAGEOUS POLICIES IF HE WASN’T PLANNING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM? I believe that our economic collapse is a vicious October Slap In the Face. The media is engaging in aggressive propaganda, reporting on murder-suicides and saying they’re likely to skyrocket over this inevitable crisis, taking advantage of the Copycat Effect in media. The more they tell us not to worry, the more the people panic. The only reason this crisis is inevitable is because Bush carefully crafted it to force our country to unravel. Whether it’s Bush, Mccain, or Obama, one of these men will then take the threads of a forgotten dream and sew it back together in a new way. There is an increasingly obvious movement toward total globalization, and we’re being lead to believe this WORLDWIDE economic crisis can only be solved with huge changes to global market and finance.
This is the beginning of the end of nations.
Cultures and Societies have always developed in the same way: Savagery àBarbarismàCivilization. Anthropological theory has long followed this model. But what comes next? Our world of science has been obsessed with discovering what came before savagery. Where did we come from, evolution, biology, etc. But I think it’s important to balance the equation: àSavegeryàBarbarismàCivilizationàx I was never any good at math, so I’m glad it’s not essentially necessary to discover x. My theory is that x equals world order, an ultra-civilization if you will. If you think about it, how can we progress in the way we do, while social advancement sits stagnate as civilized? The United Nations and the way wars and religion have been used to justify globalization are simply tactics to advance toward a perfect world created by the elite of the elite. Did you see Obama’s largest speech to date when he spoke to 200,000 people…in Berlin. His rhetoric is fascinating,
"Yes, there have been differences between America and Europe. No doubt, there will be differences in the future. But the burdens of global citizenship continue to bind us together. A change of leadership in Washington will not lift this burden. In this new century, Americans and Europeans alike will be required to do more — not less. Partnership and cooperation among nations is not a choice; it is the one way, the only way, to protect our common security and advance our common humanity.”
Sounds better than Bush’s method of tyrannical invasion and power siege, but the goal and the cause are similar. Agenda 21, and national committees for sustainable development postulate that the world population should not be over 500,000,000. Cool. Wait…there’s 6 BILLION people now… I’ll do the math. That’s a 93% reduction of the world’s population. Planned Parenthood won’t cut it. Sustainable development is the idea of meeting the needs of today’s population without harming the ability of the future generations to meet their own needs. Well, it’s irrefutable that we’re not meeting the needs of the future, and apparent that we’re not even meeting our own needs. This is where it gets harder to sugar-coat it: You can’t reduce a population by 93% without actively killing people. (Check out the youtube video titled Agenda 21: Sustainable development). Under the event that Bush declares a national emergency, he’s also changed the law to give him the authority to declare Martial Law. Under martial law, all our rights are suspended. They can come and take your guns and start policing your curfew bound streets, if you’re lucky. If you’re one of the unfortunate masses, they can take you to a concentration camp. These camps are built and ready to operate. MTV has already run public service announcements that help desensitize us to the idea. In one, police forces storm a subway train with guns and dogs and everyone panics. In the other, SWAT teams storm a family’s home in the night and load them into a truck. Search for the video titled “MTV Martial Law Warnings” to see them. The kind of emergency needed for the government to do these things is only a nuclear warhead or market collapse away. Remember September 11th? Those false-flag attacks were the birth of the changes he made…the next false-flag attack is when they go into effect. Sorry, that’s a lot to digest. My point is, I think I’m justified in abstaining from voting this time around… although it could very well be my last chance to vote. In the meantime, I’m gonna go can some food…

Hi all,I'm writing in regards to some bumper stickers that were torn of my friends car while it was parked on campus. They were stickers that took a pro-life stance and represented her belief that abortion is wrong. Being someone who disagrees with her and finds abortion to be an acceptable means of dealing with unwanted pregnancy, I think that it is important to address this issue through dialog (as well as other topics that might arise during this politically turbulent season), not cowardly actions in the night. We're at college so that we can gain an education, let's try and put it to good use and allow people who may think differently to co-exist peacefully.
