A Cuckoo Nation
Cuckoo Government, Cuckoo Media, Cuckoo Citizens

How blessed are those who observe His testimonies… Psalm 119:2

The George W. Bush administration has pushed us down an ugly path and refuses to consider a “U” turn. Stealthily it has set in place the legal platform for Fascism and sacrificed our sovereignty under the heel of world government. Down this street is a grinding, immoral, tyranny that will strangle initiative and reduce us to Third world status.

It has been progressing for several decades but has culminated in the current regime.

There are ample grounds to indict the Bush’s government but that indictment is only partially correct. Though there were shenanigans associated with the 2000 election, there were none claimed in 2004 and the results indicated that Americans wanted more of his policies. I know some contend that our elections can be rigged but even if this is true, there were a number of people within my circle that voted for the Bush regime and supported the illegal and immoral war in Iraq; some still do.

Responsibility for our current dilemma must be shared by those who supported the regime.

Now it seems the inmates have gained control of the asylum. If you remember the film staring Jack Nicholson, “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, you can begin to understand what is happening in that late great nation, the United States of America.

Navy veteran Donald Vance worked for the Iraqi company Shield Group Security where he was witness to the cash sale of guns, land mines, and rocket launchers to Iraqi insurgents, American soldiers, State Department workers, and Iraqi embassy and ministry employees. He blew the whistle and supplied photos and other documents to the FBI office in Chicago, his hometown, because he did not trust anyone in Iraq.

Back in Iraq he was thrown into a solitary confinement cell at a dungeon of sorts called Camp Cropper as a security detainee, with head banging music blaring into his cell from dawn to dusk. He was also subjected to what is euphemistically called harsh interrogation. President Bush claims this is not torture but he has not been subjected to it. I believe most citizens if they could see it done or experience its debilitating effects would quickly call it torture.

Vance is apparently not the only whistle blower to be despitefully used, several others have been vilified, fired, and demoted. $8.8 billion of the $30 billion our treasonous congress appropriated to re-build what they allowed to be destroyed has come up missing and those that stole it are still running the show. The situation is so bad that William Weaver, political science professor at University of Texas-El Paso, who is a senior advisor to the National Security Wistleblower Coalition says, “Reconstruction is so rife with corruption. Sometimes people ask me, ‘should I do this?’ And my answer is no. If they’re married, they’ll lose their family. They will lose their jobs. They will lose everything.”

There may now be some light at the end of the tunnel. For the latest developments in this travesty click here.

Fascism is about control and if we allow the government or their operatives to successfully cow investigations into illegal activities, the bad guys win and it is all down hill from there.

Until they railroaded Michael Vick on the dog fighting charge I did not know there was a Federal law against dog fighting. As he groveled before the cameras, Michael Vick did not mention whether or not he knew he was committing a felony but it would not have made any difference. The government wants it understood that they will control the lives of everyone - including the highest paid, most popular athletes. There are hundreds of laws that most citizens and many lawyers do not know about and that are often broken in ignorance. This is convenient for federal prosecutors who can throw almost anyone in jail at any time.

Am I the only one who sees the lunacy of this prosecution? This is in a nation that murders millions of babies in the womb. Streams of intelligent people go on television and attest to the justice of robbing Vick of a $131 million dollar contract and closing the door on his vocation by throwing him out of football for killing eight dogs. Emotionally pregnant columnist Georgie Anne Geyer, a cuckoo secularist, with riotous rancor calls Vick a “fascist” and refers to him as a “killer” and a “monster” finally suggesting that he be put in the pit with the dogs to be torn apart. The Geyer mantra: Kill the people, save the dogs!

We slaughter millions of cattle, hogs, and chickens for consumption, and are conducting a war that maims and kills hundreds of thousands of innocents along with thousands of our youth, miles from our shores for reasons never properly explained. We hunt and kill deer, rabbits, quail, turkeys, squirrels, skunks, possum, buffalo, and numerous other species. Dog fighting is repugnant to the many America’s citizens but it is not much different than the bull fighting that goes on before huge crowds in Spain and Mexico. In China and other Asian nations they eat dogs and raise them for consumption like we raise cattle, hogs, and chickens. Western dog food manufacturers spying a new market are trying to stop the practice. Read about it here (catch the self-righteous bias.).

Mass hysteria has taken over and a football hero may be sacrificed on its alter. We live in a cuckoo society!

If Vick goes to prison he will be entering a system that is a form of torture at its best and a living hell in its current state. In 2005 the BBC in England ran a program on torture in the United States prisons. Following a four month investigation Deborah Davies writes, “The prison guards stand over their captives with electric cattle prods, stun guns, and dogs. Many of the prisoners have been ordered to strip naked. The guards are yelling abuse at them, ordering them to lie on the ground and crawl. ‘Crawl, motherf*****s, crawl.’”

Some of the procedures that seem to be routine in our prison system are appalling; but they have proliferated. Davies describes two deaths in the famous Phoenix, Arizona jail run by Joe Arpaio. Both involve strapping of unruly prisoners into restraint chairs. “The tape (the tapes are no longer on the internet) shows nine deputies manhandling him into the restraint chair. One of them kneels on Agster’s stomach, pushing his head forward on to his knees and pulling his arms back to strap his wrists into the chair…The second tape, from five years earlier, shows Scott Norberg dying a similar death in the same jail. He was also a drug user arrested for causing a nuisance. Norberg was severely beaten by the guards, stunned up to 19 times with a Taser gun and forced into the chair where – like Charles Agster – he suffocated.”

Davies contended the atrocities authorized by our prisons in the United States might account for the torture at Guantanamo and Abu Graib. Read the Davies BBC article here.

The slide into condoning government atrocities seemed to accelerate during the Clinton administration when the murderous masculinity of Attorney General Janet Reno supported by President Bill and Hillary Clinton gave us the needless unrequited deaths of over 80 men, women, and children at the Branch Davidian Compound in Waco, Texas. No one was ever punished for this crime and when murder and mayhem can be carried out by government officials without punishment you can be sure murder and mayhem will continue.

Have dogs taken on human characteristics because some citizens love them as pets or is it just that we are living in a cuckoo‘s nest? Is there any hope for a nation whose citizens create a firestorm over the death of eight dogs but are silent over the deaths of nearly 50 million babies killed in the womb and 80 men, women, and children murdered at Waco?

The Bush II regime has trashed the Constitution, the till has been looted, we have been purposely overrun with illegal aliens, our young men are fighting a senseless war half way around the world, inflation is devaluing our currency and eating away at our standard of living, our manufacturing is leaving, international corporations have become predators, and our freedom and privacy are waning by the hour.

Our government has now succeeded in gaining control of local police forces through a two year old program called Operation Falcon. With very little publicity three massive sweeps have resulted in the apprehension of some 30,000 individuals. As with all of the neo-totalitarian programs no accounting is being offered and lots of questions beg for answers. Centralization of our police forces is ominous. Read about it here.

Both the Neo-Con cabal and belligerent Evangelicals are chafing at the bit for war with Iran. Talk about a cuckoo’s nest!

The United States was and has been a people who professed to be Christians but have allowed their government to become secular. Multi-religionism is tantamount to humanism. When the One True Religion is scorned as it now is in United States, a new religion takes its place. The new religion is now functioning with increasing intolerance for Christianity.

Unfortunately, most of our citizens still have faith in the news they get from the television and press. Their faith is not entirely misplaced because the news we get is mostly accurate. However, those who control our press and media are small in number, homogenous in makeup, and conspiratorial in practice. The news meted out to United States citizens is bereft of subject matter that does not coincide with the agenda of the power structure.

Six international conglomerates control over 90% of the free world media. These six powerful entities are AOL Time Warner, The Walt Disney Company, Bertelsmann AG, Viacom, News Corporation, and Vivendi Universal. Read about this oligopoly here. Some of the corporations themselves and scores of individual news personnel are members of the Council on Foreign Relations making them conduits for the CFR world government mantra. Read about it here.

Censorship of our news regularly curtails stories about many different issues. Deanna Spingola lists several of these issues in one of her articles.

Concentration camps being built by Kellogg, Brown, & Root.

The late Aaron Russo’s film “America From Freedom to Fascism”.

Depleted Uranium.

Privatization of our military.

Irregularities of 9/11.

Trashing of our Bill of Rights.

Details about the Federal Reserve System.

Selling off of United States infrastructure.

Plans to merge Canada, Mexico, and United States.

The proposed “Amero” currency.

The real results of NAFTA, GATT, and job growth.

Read the entire article here.

Other issues that are never properly covered are the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, race relations, immigration, Israel’s control over United States foreign policy, homosexuality, abortion, torture and the Christian religion.

With cuckoo logic United States citizens have accepted the fact that third party candidates cannot win elections and are completely ready to accept the marginalization of the only genuine patriot, popular Congressman Ron Paul. Truculent, stubborn and stupid, many citizens do not know and do not want to know that the reason truly patriotic candidates cannot win is because the cozy little cabal that controls our press and media actually decides what candidates will be considered for election.

In Nebraska, Clarence Douglas Malcolm, a private criminal investigator and retired FBI Division Chief, Ted L. Gunderson have devised a Felony Rico and Conspiracy suit against the mass media. Read about it here.

We are living under a government bent on creating a regional order in anticipation of a world order. It is a cuckoo scheme that will not work but will result in chaos and death for millions of God’s children. It is a conspiracy of long standing, but much of the impending disaster is a result of cuckoo citizens who have been too stubborn, too pre-occupied, or too stupid to resist.

Gentle reader, please forgive my use of the word “stupid”. I was unable to find a better description for pervasive, wanton ignorance.

Rescue me, O Lord, from evil men; preserve me from violent men, who devise evil things in their hearts; they continually stir up wars.
Psalm 140:1-2
