Your juvenile rage is misplaced. Do you not read the news;
where have you been for the past six years. The sky is not falling, no matter
how much you and your chicken little friends think it is. You speak of the
constitution as if it were a suicide pact, that anything which threatens the
individual "rights" of anyone must be dealt with and put aside or
else the constitution will be dissolved, and simply disappear. Are you not
aware of the concept of the community and/or society needs, which at times are
to be dealt with, even though some of your precious individual rights need to
be put aside for the long-term good of the greater society. I voted for Bush,
and I think he has done a rotten job in many areas, but in the case of our
national security, he as performed as well as anyone could considering the
circumstances facing our nation since 2001. I agree that Pelosi and Reid have
also done poorly, but for different reasons than you, obviously. They are both
just about as corrupt as the two Clintons. Of course - there are corrupt
Republicans, probably as many as there are Democrats. This is an ongoing
problem among professional politicians. Remember, my friend, your position on
politics does not make you any better an American than someone who disagrees
with you on your points of argument.

The problems with our economy
Jan. 25, 2008
Editor:
I strongly believe that our nation shall never get out of DEBT as
long as we keep the Federal Reserve Bank as a monopoly on United States Money.
I would like Congress to abolish the Federal Reserve Act.
As long as the Rockefeller's, the Morgan's, the Warberg's, and the
Rothschild's or people akin to them have a Central Bank in operation; the
United States and it's citizens shall be nothing but slaves.
Did you know that the Federal Reserve Act was not written by
Congress?
It was written by bankers at a secret meeting At the Morgan estate
on Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia 1910.
The problems with our economy that we are seeing now are very
similar to the run up to the depression of 1929. The sub-prime loans of
today have taken the place of the "margin loans" of the
1920s.
The men who run the Federal Reserve Bank and other Central Banks
are unscrupulous;
Remember; one of the members of congress who spoke out against
these atrocities committed by the Federal Reserve Bank in the 1820s was Louis
McFadden. After two failed attempts to assassinate him; Louis McFadden was
poisoned at a banquet before he could bring impeachment proceedings against the
Federal Reserve Board to congress.
They must find it difficult; those who have taken authority as
truth rather than truth as authority.

I would like to object to the characterization of me in the
article you published by Paul Loeb listing some of Hillary Clinton's
baggage from her unethical past.
It seems as though Mr Loeb has adopted the Clintons'
characterization of me as a convicted con artist who "coordinated" a
massive fundraiser for Hillary. Mr Loeb's statements, and the Clintons'
statements, represent the true con in exposing what Hillary really did to win
her Senate seat and avoid accountability. I believe you have a duty to clarify
what the Clinton protecting acolytes in the mainstream media have been
misrepresenting tio the public about me and my allegations that have been
corroborated by both the DOJ and the FEC.
My convictions in 1979 for possession of cocaine (something
Mr Obama has admitted to and Clinton has been linked to) and for conspiring to
defraud Fidel Castro and the Cuban government (something that the Trading with
the Enemy Act encourages every American to do) hardly qualify me as a con
artist. My parole violation of using a CIA operative's identification upon
re-entering the US after a visit to Canada to meet with contra leaders in 1982
would also not qualify as being a convicted con-artist.
While a federal judge appointed by the Clintons
officiated over the trial of Hillary's finance director for criminally hiding
my contributions to Hillary's campaign told the jury that I was a con
artist in order to assure the acquittal of Hillary's agent- unethically
throwing the trial by advocating the defense's position- that I conned him by
hiding the $1.2 million expenditures he coordinated with me- the real
con there was the judge and the defendant.
When the Clintons were asked by the FEC in 2001 to respond
to my FEC complaint about their frauds on me and the FEC, they responded by
saying I was extorting them by using the FEC to recover money I never expended-
a position that both violated the false statement laws and was intended to con
the FEC into dropping my complaint which resulted in an admission that
Hillary's campaign did violate the law and was fined for hiding more than
$700,000 of the $1.2 million I personally contributed.

Amorphous, no cause/no cure/no clear definition
disease
Jan. 23, 2008
Editor:
Just a letter to let the people who would dare refer to the
sufferers of Fibromyalgia in such a manner. Fibromyalgia has been around
and was a very REAL illness long before Lyrica hit the market. I am a
sufferer of this horrible invisible illness which rips the lives of millions of
Americans apart and millions worldwide. I am not a hypochondriac, a liar,
a lunatic, or a lazy person who wants to get out of life's many
responsibilities. I must ask if anyone would "choose" to have
fibromyalgia. We suffer not only great pain physically but also
great emotional pain from being labeled lunatics and liars. If we were
making this up, we would simply "forget" we have this cursed
"syndrome" simply because of the stigma attached to it.
I was diagnosed about 5 years ago though I had symptoms so
mild for years that I even ignored them. Fibromyalgia hit me full
blast at the age of about 39. I had no idea what the word
"fibromyalgia" meant and had not even heard of the illness until I
was so sick with it I sought a diagnosis for it. I then had to research
it myself to find out what it meant. I am a registered nurse of 15 years
now. I was as uninformed as most of the medical community remains at this
point. I might add I am a respected nurse and have never had a
stipulation on my license. I am not a lunatic.
I deal with the stigma of this illness from my colleagues,
family, and friends. I do NOT take Lyrica because I am uninsured.
It is too expensive at this time. My doctor has NEVER pushed Lyrica on
me.
If a pharmaceutical company develops a drug for MS or Lupus,
it is praised. But of course this unbelievable disease without objective
data is simply for lunatics and liars.
I DO NOT choose to wake up like this everyday. I do
not get any secondary rewards from the government or get out of any of life's
responsibilities. So, I must ask, what do I gain from this miserable
"syndrome"?
Please ask yourself if you would like to wake up every
morning so stiff you can hardly move for the first hour? Would you like
to have numnbess and tingling in your fingers to the point you cannot feel them
at times? Would you like to be in horrible pain when no one else can see
it? Would you like to live your life with chronic exhaustion no matter
how much or how little you sleep? Now, would you like to live with a
stigma of disbelief on top of all this?
I will add that until about 5 years ago I never had a pain
that Tylenol would not take care of.
Yes, millions of people from every walk of life suffer this
"amorphous" "no clear difinition" illness.

It's crazy for the feds to be spending money on
"de-stigmatizing" mental illness.
When a family member of mine became psychotic, I used
orthomolecular medicine to cure him. He's fine now. He works about 30+ hours a
week, is on NO psychoactive medications (or any drugs), nor does he see any

HIV, mycoplasmas and other nasty stuff
Jan. 21, 2008
Editor:
I have worked in the alternative medicine field for the last
20 years. I read most of your articles about HIV and especially was interested
in the connection with mycoplasmas. I got a copy of the "Strecker
Memorandum" almost 20 years ago. I went to the medical and law libraries
to verify what Dr. Strecker had listed at the end of the video. NOT to my
surprise I can say he was spot on, as it ALL exists in PRINT!
I was living in Chicago then and remember hearing about
congressman Duff right before he died. I remember his speaking out and saying
AIDS was being given to the black community by 'Jewish doctors". Unlike
most of my peers, I did not think he was crazy. Unfortunately, he did have a
drug abuse problem and that is what they say he died of - overdose I think. I
remember hearing about it on the radio then.
It was about this time I began using enzymes in my
practice in treating health disorders. Since then, I have focused almost
exclusively on them, wrote a 3-part article for the same "Nexus"
magazine you mention which was published 4 years ago. You can Google my name
and you'll find them online. I am working on a book on the same subject. To all
this I can say that the most often overlooked therapy for ALL immune problems
comes from highly concentrated enzymes therapy. It's almost like a secret. I
treated 1 patient with sarcoidosis a few years ago and her respiratory doctor
told her 2 years ago she was completely cured!
I had read Dr. Cantwell's article on mycoplasmas at www.rense.com back then and deduced since
mycoplasmas were still bacteria (i.e., protein) enzymes would do the job; and
sure enough they did. But it wasn't until we used a product with larch tree
bark to stimulate the immune system that the patient got well.
In any case, I am writing to you just to mention that
another quite possible "cure" for "AIDS" would be using the
enzymes. I tried doing this with a couple of HIV + patients but they simply
would not make all the necessary lifestyle changes, especially the dietary
ones. So I lost track of them and quite frankly chose not to work with them any
longer since they would not take that responsibility. The fact is
microorganisms are not capable of building up resistance to enzymes unlike the
antibiotics and other drugs used.
There is a lot more to this, but time does not permit me to
go into it today. Thank you immensly for your articles and best wishes.

Presidential primaries
Jan. 20, 2008
Editor:
A political primary is a preliminary election in which the
registered voters of a political party nominate candidates for office.
The key word here is preliminary. The current system allows small states
such as Iowa and New Hampshire {assisted by the media} to award
front-runner status to the victorious candidate. From there the
candidates travel a path determined by which states wants to "leap
frog" the other by moving up their primary dates. Candidates are
whisked across the country without any real ability to distinguish regional
issues from national issues. Consequently, party platforms are determined
by a make-it-up-as-you-go approach. If the primary process were organized
on a regional basis, candidates would be able to study the regional issues,
campaign to confirm those issues and then receive votes based on the solutions
they propose. A regional approach would also prevent a premature
selection of a front-runner because success in one region certainly would not
guarantee success in the next region. This would also further validate
the process because each state would still have a say all the way down to the
end. Finally, the number of delegates awarded in each state should
be determined by the percentage of votes won by each candidate.
Accordingly, the political primaries should occur between
January and June of each presidential election year. Each of the six
regions would be assigned a particular month. A lottery held in June of
the previous year would determine which month each region holds its
primaries. An example illustrates the format:
January
Middle West (9):
Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio,
Wisconsin
February
Southern (8):
Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Virginia,
West Virginia
March
Atlantic (8):
Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, New
Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina,
April
New England (8):
Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, Vermont,
May
Northwestern (9):
Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota,
Washington, Wyoming
June
Southwestern (9):
Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma,
Texas, Utah

Then see if any of the things in column 3 appear in column

The amazing thing is they are talking about a short-term

they all go out and spend it on Chinese goods, Japanese goods, Japanese

The Incompetence excuse
Jan 13, 2008
Editor:
Thank you for this article. I have been saying similar
things for several years now and people look at me like I
had horns. This administration has been very successful in almost totally
disrupting any sense of democracy left in this country. The current neocons
come from a long line of totalitarian power hungry goons.
It didn't begin with 9/11 and it didn't begin with the PNAC
documents. There is clear evidence that the Bushes were involved with an
attempted fascist coup against FDR in the 1940s. Prior to that were the
Rockefeller efforts with German industry to gain control over various critical
industries in the form of cartels.
Eugenics goes back over a century, a concept supported by
the same sociopathic goons who saw most people as useless fools that were
expendable. Today, genocide in Darfur, or in Iraq via violence or death by
starvation as in Iraq in the 1990s, or the loosing of AIDS or other
viruses against populations or toxic vaccines that relate to the massive
increase of autism in this population (1:150 kids today). The concept of
fair wages, hours, housing, health, education, etc are items to be eliminated
from society. But in the meantime, the public can pay for the foibles of the
wealthy; i.e., no/little corporate taxes and massive taxation for the working
public.
If you take any social institution and examine what is going
on, the exact same destruction of the human mind, body and spirit is evident.
And it all comes under the totalitarian control meted out via the education system,
mass media, law enforcement, health and the military.
No there are no accidents in this mess we live in. The
neocons have been extraordinarily successful in disrupting the entire Mid-East,
controlling much of the oil and its distribution, supporting the destruction of
the Palestinian people as part of the excuse to allow a nuclear Israel (another
base for the us military) and destroying any semblance of civil liberty at home
and abroad.

Bush's war on "terra" is a hoaxx
Jan 10, 2008
Editor:
Some in our U.S. Gov't purposely allowed Sep 11th to happen:
Hijacked airliners flew all around the eastern U.S. for
hours without any military response??? How could Osama bin-Forgotten make our
air force stand down, or did Cheney do that???
The Pentagon was struck by a "hijacked" airliner
45 minutes after two other "hijacked" airliners struck the WTC,
without the airliner being intercepted, approached, chased, or even seen by our
air defenses?
The Gov't still refuses to release clear video of whatever
happened at the Pentagon to this day, six years later??? Why???
The massive WTC-7 building was 350 feet from the nearest
tower, was not hit by a plane, yet it imploded in a controlled demolition at
5:20 pm??? It housed many gov't offices, & the over-insured owner said the
building was "pulled." Why???
The Bush/Cheney regime is using 9/11 as a pretext to
brazenly subvert our U.S. Constitution, launch illegal invasions of
Afghanistan, Iraq, (Iran?), & grant themselves dictatorial powers here at
home! They have committed high treason & must be impeached & imprisoned
while we still have the Bill of Rights!

Although Kissinger, per Estulin, "hand-picked"
Edwards to run with Kerry in the 2004
"election," Larry Chinn "supposing" that
Edwards is still connected to the Bilderberg Group
does not appear to be warranted.
That Edwards was "invited" to speak (then), was
certainly not bonafides complicity in the
covert complicity to overturn nations, etc.
That Kissinger, war criminal, etc., backs McCain is proof
that, in my eyes, that Edwards
would pose the most serious threat to the Bildergers.
And although Edwards' participation in hedge funds and the
Fortress Group is not a
wonderful thing, the other candidates running have a lot
more crimes on their soul, I'm
sure.
Kucinich could never be president, as someone who avows to
disassemble the DOD
and make it over into a DOP. Or, Kucinich could never be
comfortable standing in front
of "the troops."
Obama would be willing to commit America to more military
adventures, I agree.
Hilliary "Weeping Iron Maiden" Clinton would be
like a "kinder, gentler Bush" in a skirt.
Mike Gravel says some wonderful stuff, and is credible, but
alas . . . no power base at

they see the close ups, listen to survivors and the emergency services they
soon get the picture. I tell all my friends and some customers what happened.
This week I emailed a lot of links to one lady who said the entire office is

Overpaid celebrities

Editor:
This letter is response to the articles appearing recently regarding the
Mitchell report which detailed the scope of steroid use in Major League Baseball.
What drives the use of steroids in sports? Is it the obsessive desire to
obtain millions of dollars and celebrity at the expense of an even playing
field? Or is there a more serious underlying problem with entertainment in
general?
One of the most disturbing facts about our capitalist nation is the
misappropriation of funds directed to the salaries of entertainers. Everyone
should agree that the value an athlete, movie star, talk-show host, team-owner,
etcetera, brings to the average citizen is very small. Granted, they do offer a
minuscule of diversion from our daily trials and tribulations, as did the
jesters in the king’s court during the middle ages. But to allow these
entertainers to horde such great amounts of wealth at the expense of more
benevolent societal programs is unacceptable.
Our society is also subjected to the “profound wisdom” of these people
because it equates wealth with influence. Perhaps a solution to this problem
and a alternative to defeated school levies, crumbling infrastructures, as well
as all the programs established to help feed, clothe and shelter those who
cannot help themselves would be to tax this undeserved wealth.
Entertainers could keep 1% of the gross earnings reaped from their
endeavor and 99% could be deposited into the public coffers.
The old ideas of the redistribution of wealth have failed, and it is
time to adapt to modern-day preferences. People put their money into
entertainment above everything else; isn’t it time to tap that wealth? Does
anyone think this will reduce the quality of entertainment? It seems to me that
when entertainers received less income, the quality was much higher.

In my opinion, this is a breakthrough article, and would get
my vote for one of the top commentaries of 2007.
