blah, blah, blah.  Mine, Mine, Mine, Wah!  You are amazing.


I would have been unsubscribing soon, as my work is substantially complete,
but now seems a good time to exit.  This was my first list subscription and
describing the group dynamics alone has filled a small notebook.  (You are
sooo knowledgeable, I suggest that you review Tavestock as your group is a
classic example of its well-known theories.)   Jim is correct in that there
is a definite operational pattern on this list, and I have observed its
replication with tiresome regularity.

Although your list subscription numbers are relatively high (if not
exaggerated), the majority are clearly non-participating members.  As to
the core group of active members - with a small number of notable
exceptions - a more arrogant, pretentious and self-congratulatory bunch
would be hard to find!!  However, the most distinguishing feature of this
list is the blatant hypocrisy, e.g., continually insisting on
documentation, while refusing to provide any yourself - what unmitigated gall!!

While attempting to portray yourselves as open-minded researchers, the bulk
of your posts are political and economic dogma, flights of fantasy,
unsubstantiated rumors, and simple make believe with no, and I mean NO
basis in fact.  The posts that aren't simply opinion or fantasy, again,
with a few notable exceptions, are not even unique as they are comprised of
info readily available in dozens of other places.  The bulk of posts are
certainly not *research* by any definition.   While narrow minded bigotry
and prejudice is nowhere more prevalent than on this list, you insist on
presenting yourselves as morally superior!!

I was not planning to post at all when I subscribed, but couldn't resist a
few times and the results were always interesting.  Predictably, no one was
willing or able to address the outrageous assertions that minutely detailed
information is available to the likes of your group regarding various
powerful, super-secret organizations that purportedly rule the world.  How
effective could the machinations of any all-powerful organization be if its
members, meeting agendas, and activities are regularly published on the
Internet, even in the face of armed guards!!!  LOL, LOL.

Kris, you just keep sitting at your computer toking weed, living your
medieval fantasies.   Your life purpose is obviously the protected
environment that you so enthusiastically provide to those intellectually
challenged individuals whom you have collected.   Secure in the knowledge
that you will jump in and remove from the list any person who refuses to
conform or fold when the group attacks, your little band of idiots are free
to begin arguments they have not a prayer of finishing, and engaging in
their favorite activities of baiting, name calling, and proselytizing their
political, economic and religious beliefs.  (Oh yes, proselytizing is not
only allowed, but actively encouraged for the select few espousing pc
views!)   You are pitiful!!

Barb

BTW, as you are in the habit of depriving those you defame the courtesy of
defending themselves, I took the liberty of soliticating Hawk's response to
your last piece of malevolent tripe.   Not that I expect you or the
Stepford posters to understand.

He also doesn't mind exposing his ignorance and rudeness.

> >I do not have to, nor will I sustain promulugation of disruption and 'evil'.

Of course, he never was able to defend HIS basis for calling "anything" evil...
other than his own opinion.  Here we go again, "A fool does not delight in
understanding, but only in expressing his own opinions."  That's from the Book.

> >Racism and nazism are evil created by man. That is were evil comes from,
man.

The kicker here is, I never expressed a single racist thought.  This
imbecile is
the racist... HE *assumed* that "slave" = "negro."  It doesn't ... I would
venture,
though unable to prove it, that more whites, middle-easterners, and
orientals have
been slaves than have Negroes.  He also conveniently overlooked the fact
that my
own family is multi-racial AND multi-national... That "racist" idea is a
figment of
his imagination, useful in all arguments where logic won't support his
position.
As far a "Nazi" is concerned, that is totally absurd!  I am very close in
political
and economic thought to a Libertarian, which is almost the opposite of a
socialist
and the term Nazi, referred to members of the "National Socialist Party."

Linda, you give your reasons for questioning the character of
Forbes, Perkins and Russell families (ironic, aren't you the Clinton
supporter), but I question the relevancy.  I wonder:

(1)  How is the historical origin of Forbes money relevant to
whether or not the assertions of the authors of the subject articles is
true?;

(2)  Do you disagree with the premises stated by the authors?;

(3)  If so, which ones, and why?;

(4)  What is inherently evil about *trade secrets*?;

(5)  What person who took an oath of secrecy spilled the beans to
you?

It's my practice not to discuss religion with fundamentalists,  nor do I
discuss economics with the "true believers" in socialism/communism.  As
with everything on this list, you can choose to read the articles or not.
However, if you're going to critique something, it is commonly expected
that you at least peruse the material and then mention specifics.   The
irony of someone like yourself commenting regarding a lack of objectivity
is too funny for words.  And use your damn spell checker.

I understand, some persons are simply unable to bear the discomfort that

:

We still have relative freedom, although we are seeing our freedoms rapidly
decreased as government tries to regulate and control every aspect of our
lives.  Below is a good example of what happens when government becomes
thus involved.  This is only one example of hundreds if not thousands of
what has happened in other nations who have caved under the pressures of
socialist and dictatorial government control.  The battle we are involved
in is not a sideline effort, and not just restricted to the education
arena.  Education just happens to be one, although a major, arena in the
push for total societal, economic and financial control of our nation.  Can
the below happen in our country?  You betcha!  Can we be required to carry
official ID on our persons at all times as is required in most European
countries?  You betcha!  Can we be required to use only designated
healthcare as is the case in many countries?  You betcha!  Can we be
monitored on the care of our children and required to enter them into
"approved" facilities from pre-birth, through pre-school, through total
education?  You betcha!  And please understand I am not talking about 5
years from now, but much sooner unless there is a major change in our
course.  To believe otherwise is playing directly into the hands of the
those who are the driving force behind the movement.

FIGHTING NORWAY'S NAMING LAW
The Name Game
World Magazine, Jan. 9, 1999

Kirsti Larsen was thrown in a Norwegian jail because she gave her son a
first name that was not on the government's list of acceptable choices. She
named him Gesher, which means "bridge" In Hebrew.

This violates Norway's strict laws regulating names, which include lists of
acceptable first and last names. When Mrs. Larsen tried to register her
son's name as Gesher at her local county office back in 1995, it was
rejected as Illegal. She appealed repeatedly but was ordered to change the
name, pay a $210 fine, or spend two days in jail.

Mrs. Larsen refused to change the name of her boy, who is now four. So she
went to prison for two days, leaving her husband and 10 children at home.
But since little Gesher is still named Gesher, no one knows how this
dispute will be settled.

"Many probably would have bowed to 'Big Brother' and paid the fine. On
principle, I couldn't go along with such absurdity," Mrs. Larsen told the
Vordens Gang newspaper. "Maybe the authorities thought I would come running
with the money when they ordered me to serve my sentence just before
Christmas, but I didn't let them scare me."

Are you saying that one must believe ANYTHING in order to subscribe to this
list?  Come up with proof, or even a set a facts from which a reasonable
person would conclude your story is plausible, otherwise it's just that - a
story.

Since you seem very convinced, and recite your story as if factual, it
would be helpful to me if you could provide at least one or two specific
details, eg, who are the members of this cabal, how do they choose their
victims, are they all the victims of this group "important political
figures," what is the agenda of this group, etc.  Sorry, it just seems
improbable to me that it would take a well-orchestrated cabal, major
planning, and an entire caste of characters flawlessly executing
pre-planned movements to get Clinton to drop his pants, or lie, etc.

Re: [CTRL] MICROSOFT AND THE BAVARIAN ILLUMINATI

 -Caveat Lector-

One thing has always puzzled me and I respectfully request the experienced
conspiracy researchers on this list to explain how the movements, actions
and membership of *supersecret* organizations seems to be common
knowledge??  One post even talked about a meeting surrounded with armed
guards to ensure privacy, and then proceeded to set forth the meeting
attendees and agenda.  I would sincerely appreciate clarification, or if
you know whether something is in the archives already.

Also, organizations touting great secrecy and knowledge to which only a few
are privy advertising in the back of magazines and all over the Internet?
Seems contradictory and certainly not very secret.

in his stripes at Clinton's1995 State of the Union Address, which was

BLW:  It's time that parents eliminate the necessity of daily countering
political indoctrination, religious dogma, selective history, anti-family
propaganda, and a plethora of brainwashing activities forced upon their
child at school in the name of "molding the whole person".

It's time that parents refuse to accept the role of scapegoat for teachers
who cannot teach.  (What other employment besides teaching and the "child
advocacy" industry provides one such a handy excuse for even the most
egregious lack of skill, intellect or ethics??)

It's time parents demand academic excellence - teachers who cannot pass a
competency exam should be summarily fired, better yet, not hired in the
first place.  Degrees in academic subjects should be a requirement to
teach, rather than two years of general ed and two to four additional years
in advanced flannel board.

Slamming teachers' unions is not the answer to the problems we have

Supporting a government sponsored monopoly and systematically usurping

[CTRL] Truth About Evil

1999-01-09 Thread Barb Witt

 -Caveat Lector-

>From the Wasington Post, Wednesday, January 6, 1999; Page A25
The Truth About Evil By Michael Kelly

Some months ago, I wrote a column in which I expressed revulsion at an
affectionate feature in the New York Times about a small band of elderly
communists and socialists who do good works among the downtrodden of Los
Angeles and, by the way, still revere Marx and Lenin. For this, Sam
Tanenhaus, author of an estimable and honest biography of Whittaker
Chambers, takes me politely to task in the current New York Review of Books.
My finger-pointing, says Tanenhaus, is emblematic of a regrettable "revival
of the familiar cold war Manichaeanism, whereby the entire burden of world
communism is laid crushingly upon every [Communist Party] member or
sympathizer."
This is a debate worth having, for it is central to the intellectual and
cultural history of this century. It has been, you have to admit, a pretty
Manichaean sort of century: good and evil in the form of democracy and
totalitarianism duking it out for global domination; concentration camps;
gulags; a couple of hundred million dead-that sort of thing. The good was
not absolute (we had Joe McCarthy and Roy Cohn on our side, alas), but the
evil was pretty close to pure.

American liberalism came to terms with one face of the century's evil-that
of the Nazis and their allies-immediately, honorably and unequivocally. The
fight to destroy the Nazi version of fascism was waged in such unabashedly
Manichaean terms that we called it The Good War (we were not being ironic
either; only Parisians and a few guys at Oxford knew about irony back then).
And organized American political liberalism-that is, the Democratic Party
and the labor movement-also came to terms soon enough with the communist
version, and firmly rejected it. But the treatment of communist fascism by
liberalism's intellectual and cultural establishments-as distinct from its
mainstream political bodies-has been profoundly different.
The intellectual and cultural elites have never come to terms with
communism as an evil on a par with Nazism and, more important, with their
role in supporting, or at least tolerating, that evil. This failure, which
is one of immense moral dimensions as well as rational, persists. (Witness
the 24-part CNN television series on the Cold War, a history massively
distorted by the light of moral equivalency that shines in Ted Turner's
dim, dim bulb of a mind.)
The failure persists and adapts because it is too large to come to terms
with. Coming to terms means not merely admitting the fundamental evil of
the communist system and its root philosophy (as opposed to admitting the
evil of one or another communist tyrant) but also admitting our own
sympathetic complicity. It means not merely reassessing the century's
political figures but its intellectual and cultural figures too. It means
reassessing us.

And this is a tremendously painful prospect, because it is a tremendously
personal one. There were never many Nazis or Nazi sympathizers in America
and very few political, cultural and intellectual figures of note among
them. But such is not the case with communism.
Twentieth-century political, cultural and intellectual history is thickly
peopled with respected and even revered figures-labor leaders, progressive
reformers, novelists, playwrights, artists, luminaries of the news and
entertainment businesses-who were deeply supportive of a system and
philosophy that we now know beyond doubt was every bit as monstrous as the
Nazi regime, was morally indistinguishable from the Nazi regime. And on the
more intimate level, when we talk about American communists or communist
sympathizers, we are talking about family.
So when we contemplate admitting the full profundity of communism's evil,
we are contemplating a radical reevaluation of everyone who traveled some
distance with that evil. We are talking about reevaluating Upton Sinclair
and John Steinbeck and Pablo Picasso and Ernest Hemingway and Charlie
Chaplin. And we are talking also about reevaluating Uncle Harry and Aunt
Edith and Grandpa and maybe even dear old Dad.
What further complicates matters is we know that Uncle Harry and Aunt Edith
are good people. They sided with the communists because they sincerely
believed in the promise of communism to address the wrongs of our own
society-its gross class inequities, its racial oppression, the rough
cruelties of capitalism.
But the fellow travelers were wrong, and in their wrong, they helped to
perpetuate a system that caused immense human suffering. To say this is not
to gainsay that most Communist Party members and sympathizers were
motivated by the desire to make a better world, nor is it to lay the whole
burden of communism's crimes on their shoulders.
It is simply to say this: At some point it becomes a seriously immoral act
to refuse to acknowledge the truth. At some point, you have to ask whether
it is morally acceptable to regard those who yet refuse to come t

Your post is exceedingly and unnecessarily cruel to those persons whose
feelings of moral superiority necessitate their bearing a burden of guilt
and forever paying penance for the actions of distant ancestors (real or
imagined).  It is unwise, as well as nonproductive, to interject factual
information into a religious conversation.

For the sake of clarification, please note that my opinion, albeit shared
by many, is neither new, nor the line of any party.  BTW, watch that
stereotyping!   The claim that every nonmember of Cult Clinton is by
default a Republican is as silly as the notion that everyone who values

And in any conversation outside academia among persons utilizing common
sense, your statement would be an excellent example of pseudo
intellectualism, arrogantly hurled to facilitate your attempt to change the
subject, ignore the facts and promote a particular ideology.I do
appreciate the feedback, it's just so predictable!

Try using your "narrow legalism vs. objective reality" outside a classroom,
say in a courtroom, and see how far it gets you.

O.k., assuming, arguendo, that your speculation is correct,  I would still
prefer someone in the White House who is not so easily manipulated, or at
least more in control of himself than my dog.  This is your defense - that
Clinton is not responsible for his own actions?

>Do some research and use your brain.

Why are certain persons on this list so friggin arrogant?  Because someone
disagrees with you does not mean that they aren't using their brain.  Could
your reference to tunnel vision simply be a projection of your own
behavior???   In light of your education, the fawning veneration that you
display for a political figure is inconceivable.

Translation:  You agree with my view of St. Clinton.

Stripped of the verbiage, these defenses have been repeatedly propounded by
the Clintonistas:

(a) Clinton's lies were only about sex - one must be a prude to object;
(b) Everyone engages in extra-marital affairs;
(c) Republicans are criminals but don't get caught;
(d) The vast right wing conspiracy is out to get Clinton; and the newest
and most profound
(e) Monica made him do it.

You'll have to do much better than the above to convince anyone who has not
worshipped at Clinton's altar.

No intellectually honest person believes that Clinton's plight is simply
due to philandering.   As has been stated innumerable
times, no one, conservative, liberal or in between cares if Clinton
engages in extramarital sex an infinite number of times with countless
persons.   

Your attitude regarding Clinton - blind faith, unthinking
loyalty, absurd denial in the face of facts admitted by Clinton himself
-  is quintessential fundamentalist/cult thinking.  Does
endorsing Clinton's politics and embracing his political vision really
require that you defend EVERYTHING he does, no matter how
illegal???  

As far as Livingston, or any of the other philanderers/crooks in office,
they too can screw their brains out, they just cannot lie about it before
a trial court and a grand jury. 

The "he did it too!" argument is reminiscent of grade school
where young children attempt to avoid punishment by deflecting the
attention to someone else (i.e., snitching).  Or even junior high
when "everyone does it!" is the preferred rationale for base
behavior.

Pentagon officials dispute timing

The Washington Times
12/17/98 Rowan Scarborough


The White House notified the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Sunday that President
Clinton would order air strikes this week, 48 hours before he saw a United
Nations report declaring Iraq in noncompliance with weapons inspectors, it was
learned from authoritative sources last night.

Several Pentagon officials have questioned Mr. Clinton's timing to order
strikes on the eve of the House impeachment debate.

Pentagon sources said National Security Council aides told the Joint Chiefs to
quickly update a bombing plan that was shelved in mid-November and were told
that a strike would be ordered in a matter of days.

Israeli spokesman Aviv Bushinsky said yesterday in Jerusalem that President
Clinton discussed preparations for an attack with Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu just minutes before Mr. Clinton flew home from Israel's
Ben-Gurion Airport on Tuesday, ending a three-day peace mission.

White House spokesman Joe Lockhart insisted that Mr. Clinton made the strike
decision yesterday based on the U.N. finding of noncompliance.

Nevertheless, a senior congressional source, who asked not to be named, said
senior Pentagon officers expressed great skepticism to him about the raids.
This source said that the White House eagerness to launch air strikes grew

with intensity as a parade of centrist Republicans announced they would vote
to impeach the president, in a vote originally scheduled for today.

"I have had senior flag and general officers question the timing," the
congressional source said. "I have had senior military officers laughing. I
hate to say that. ... Why now? He hasn't built a coalition. He hasn't done
anything. Why this timing?"

Reporters and others traveling with the president in the Middle East remarked
during last weekend that the president seemed uncharacteristically unconcerned
about events unfolding in Washington, and several White House aides expressed
puzzlement that the president seemed to have lost his "fighting spirit." Mrs.
Clinton was noticeably cool to the president as their visit there continued
and drew away from him on several public occasions.

The Joint Chiefs were described as strongly supporting yesterday's attack.
They wanted to launch missiles in mid-November, after Saddam Hussein evicted
inspectors. The president called off the attack just minutes before "H hour"
after Saddam promised to cooperate with inspectors.

Defense Secretary William S. Cohen yesterday strongly disputed charges the
attack is linked to impeachment.

"The only factor, from my point of view ... or for anyone else's point of
view, was what is the national security interests of the United States," Mr.
Cohen said. "We are convinced. We have absolutely no doubt this is the right
decision."

Mr. Cohen also said war planners preferred not to attack during Ramadan, the
monthlong Islamic observance beginning this weekend.

This is the second time military officers and experts have questioned whether
Mr. Clinton timed U.S. military action to take attention away from the Monica
Lewinsky scandal.

Washington State has an apprenticeship program and I believe there are at
