Apathy - The Greatest Threat to Western Civilization

Posted in General at 3:41 pm by Scott MacFarlane

The year is 2007 and as we gently glide into our 21st Century something seems to be nagging our collective sub consciousness. Something is hidden or somewhat occluded from conscious day to day thought. It exists more of a feeling than thought, not quite tangible enough even to power some kind of collective thinking. It exists, however many times we try to ignore it, always at a distance.

Censorship - Get Them While They’re Young

Posted in General at 10:06 pm by MamaSaid

Censorship is a way to keep the public from knowing the truth. Although we all like to believe in freedom of speech, the reality is that administration and compliant media determine the “facts” given to the people.Sadly enough, I recently read about a high school in Wilton, Connecticut that decided to create an original play about the war in Iraq, which was ultimately canceled and prohibited. The high school is located in a well-off town that frequently features state-of-the-art performances in its $10 million auditorium. The principal, who is also a former student of the school, Timothy H. Canty, said he was worried that the play would hurt families in the community who had lost a loved one or had someone serving and felt there was not enough classroom and rehearsal time to ensure the play would provide “a legitimate instructional experience for our students.”

The Secret Order of the Illuminati

Posted in General at 9:40 pm by ZoeWashburne

The Illuminati, some say, is the ultimate secret society.  It is more powerful and secretive than even the Freemasons.  Formed on May 1, 1776 in Bavaria by Professor Adam Weishaupt, the Order of the Illuminati was a secret society within a secret society.  Weishaupt was a German Freemason and his group of Illuminati would meet secretly inside the Masonic lodges in Germany.  The Illuminati ended up going deep underground when it was deemed illegal to be a member of the group because they were allegedly plotting to overthrow the Pope and the ruling Kings of Europe.

Two Minutes To Midnight? Pt.3; Preparation

Posted in General at 5:16 pm by Kevin Scott

I chose the term Two Minutes To midnight for a reason - it signifies the amount of time we have left to prepare for whatever the future will hold for us in our parts of the world. Two minutes, two days, two years? Either way I would pass the assumption that our time for preparation is coming to a close and soon the time for action of preparation will commence. I’d like to pass on some knowledge now of my own preparations for the coming years ahead, for which some will disagree and use their own measures. I simply offer this for those who need inspiration, and others who would welcome the advice.

The Bush Legacy of Prejudice and Misunderstanding

Posted in General at 9:57 pm by MamaSaid

 Prejudice and misunderstanding are unfortunately perpetuated through the generations. I recently was alarmed to find out that the Reverend George Bush (1796 – 1859) was a cousin to President Bush’s grandfather. Apparently, Bush has suppressed this little-known fact. However, a propaganda official from the Office of Countermisinformation confirmed this family relationship almost two years ago.

Skull and Bones Society

Posted in General at 6:02 pm by ZoeWashburne

The very secretive Skull & Bones society was formed in 1832 by two Yale students, William Huntington Russell and Alphonso Taft, for the very elite members of Yale and society itself.  Russell’s family had somewhat of a notorious background as they were one of the richest Opium drug dealers of the world at the time.  It is thought that while Russell studied in Germany from 1831 to 1832, that he became involved in the outlawed German “Illuminati” group and formed the Skull & Bones society in America as an underground chapter of that secret group.  Cofounder Taft, was the father of President William Taft and eventually served as the United States Secretary of War as well as the United States Attorney General.

Woe To Freedoms

Posted in General at 1:11 pm by Kevin Scott

Some would argue we are only as free as we allow ourselves to be. In essence I would agree with that statement. Yet there are forces in place which will deny us our simple freedoms whether we like it or not. Take for instance what is happening in Pakistan currently over the judiciary system. President/General Musharraf relieved the Top Judge of the Supreme Court of his position and is currently under trial for abuse of his power. No further statements have been officially released as far as my knowledge goes.

Forgotten Veterans and Yellow Ribbons

Posted in General at 8:55 pm by MamaSaid

I am so moved by a comment regarding my recent blog about discrimination against veterans that I feel the need to discuss it further. As I had written, my husband is a Vietnam veteran and I have first hand experience with the pain and neglect veterans suffer. In fact, my dad, my late father-in-law and my uncle have all served this government in the military and have little to show for it. Is it no wonder I discourage my son from serving in the military and insist he take advantage of one of the few benefits left for family members of veterans – tuition reimbursement?

What is Bilderberg?

Posted in General at 6:22 pm by ZoeWashburne

On the surface, Bilderberg is a yearly meeting with high-powered, international leaders in the areas of politics and finance.  They supposedly discuss such issues as oil prices, nuclear arms, global warming, and the various wars and political upheavals that afflict the planet at any given time.  I say “supposedly discuss” because no one is actually told what goes on at these super secret, highly guarded, and mysterious annual meetings.  But why?  These issues seem like the types of things that all people should know about, right?  Well, it doesn’t really matter what the people think, this exclusive group doesn’t really care what you think about these things and they’re not going to bother telling you!

Discrimination Against Veterans

Posted in General at 1:27 pm by MamaSaid

 As wars march on to the beat of those that never go to fight them, the veterans of those wars continue to suffer and be neglected. What if the first to go to war were the children of political officials as opposed to poor young people looking for a better life and a way to secure their future? Somehow if that were the law, I doubt there would be so many unnecessary political struggles.
