Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
- William Butler Yeats, “The Second Coming.”
Gentlemen and Ladies of American Law Enforcement,
There is a growing perception among many Americans that we are headed for one of those periodic moments in our history when our reactions to events will redefine who we are as a people, where we are going as a country and who gets to call the shots when we get there — what George H.W. Bush called “that vision thing.”
The image has provided to the Federal Observer, with the following note…
I received the picture enclosed yesterday. I responded to the sender, asking if he had any idea who took this picture and where it was taken.
His response:
“Only that it was taken by a local resident at the Kenya border. He wont identify himself for “fear of reprisal”. It was taken after he (Obama) was elected president.”
What follows below, is the written transcript of a portion of tonight’s ‘Perspectives on America.’ I originally recorded this, along with General Washington’s Vision, in February of 2001, and have re-aired it each year since.
I have received many requests for this, for many years, but had lost it. Tonight, after a request from a listener, I decided to hunt once more, and after several tries, finally located it.
Enjoy it, for it shows that there are young people, who still get it.
Washington, DC – Congress announced today (President’s Day), that the Office of the Presidency of the United States of America will be outsourced to India, as of March 1, 2011.
The move is being made, in order to save the President’s $500,000 yearly salary, and also a record $750 billion in defecit expenditures, and related overhead, that his office has incurred over the past months.
Mr. Obama has been offered a greeter position at Wal-Mart, due to his experience at shaking hands.
Some months ago I took up walking daily. I found it refreshing to get out of the car and let my body carry me where I wanted to go. When driving, so much is missed because your attention must be on the road. But walking, being an automatic function, allowed my attention to be drawn to all the things large and small all around me, which were missed when driving. A couple things I have noticed which I thought were quite odd though I share with you now…
I have been told that I sound like a broken record, constantly harping on our governments unwillingness to adhere to the constitution. That may be so, but I do it for a reason. You see, when our government refuses to adhere to the constitution, your rights come under attack.
How many times have I used the following quote from the Declaration of Independence, “…that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men…”? Out of all the quotes, that one is probably the most important for people to understand.
Nuclear fission defines a condition in nuclear physics where atoms are being split apart. Nuclear fusion is where atoms are being fused together to make different atoms. In our Sun, the immense gravitational pressure creates very high temperatures and ignites nuclear fusion at its core. Nuclear fusion in the Sun is estimated to be converting 600,000,000 tons of Hydrogen nuclei into Helium nuclei every second. This nuclear process of fusion releases huge quantities of energy in the form of neutrons, photons, neutrinos and gamma ray radiation.
The media’s habit of revisiting certain issues at set intervals can be strange and even illogical at times. For example, many news outlets commented on President Barack Obama’s first 100 days in office, as well as on the anniversary of his election win, and then again one year after his inauguration day. With every new round number, more commentators joined in and discussions heated up between proponents and detractors of his government’s performance.
I am not exactly sure why we like round numbers. Is it because they make valuations easy, even when the particular number is irrelevant?
There was a time, not too long ago (relatively speaking), that governments and the groups of elites that controlled them did not find it necessary to conscript themselves into wars of disinformation. Propaganda was relatively straightforward. The lies were much simpler. The control of information flow was easily directed. In fact, during the early Middle-Ages in most European countries commoners were not even allowed to own a Bible, nor was the Bible allowed to be interpreted from Latin to another language, let alone any other tome that might breed “dangerous ideas”.
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." ~ Ronald Reagan
