Obedience to Job and to Authority

Obedience to Job and to Authority

Missing from this analysis is the nature of humans to obey authority. Yale's Stanley Milgram established this in the 1960s and it was reaffirmed this year. Lenny Bruce provided another aspect which few admit, i.e. job security, the strongest motivation of humans. Who will jeopardize his or her job to stop a criminal abuse? Notice how few prosecutions of public officials occur in Massachusetts?

Army Orders Pain Ray Trucks; New Report Shows 'Potential for Death'
October 11, 2008, ABC News
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=6007823&page=1

After years of testing, the Active Denial System -- the pain ray which drives off rioters with a microwave-like beam -- could finally have its day. The Army is buying five of the truck-mounted systems for $25 million. But the energy weapon may face new hurdles, before it's shipped off to the battlefield; a new report details how the supposedly non-lethal blaster could be turned into a flesh-frying killer. The announcement arrives on the same day as a new report from less-lethal weapons expert Dr. Jürgen Altmann that analyzes the physics of several directed energy weapons, including Active Denial, the Advanced Tactical Laser (used as a non-lethal weapon), the Pulsed Energy Projectile (a.k.a. "Maximum Pain" laser) and the Long Range Acoustic Device (a.k.a. "Acoustic Blaster"). Dr. Altmann describes the Active Denial beam in some detail, noting that it will not be completely uniform; anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the center will experience more heating than someone at the edge. And perhaps more significant is his thorough analysis of the heating it produces -- and the cumulative effect if the target does not have the chance to cool down between exposures. In U.S. military tests, a fifteen-second delay between exposures was strictly observed; this may not happen when the ADS is used for real. "As a consequence, the ADS provides the technical possibility to produce burns of second and third degree. Because the beam of diameter 2 m and above is wider than human size, such burns would occur over considerable parts of the body, up to 50% of its surface."

Animal Farm in D.C.?

It is always inspiring to see groups historically discriminated against having access to prominent newspapers and the Presidency. (“You’re Likable Enough, Gay People,” The New York Times, December 27, 2008) Frank Rich writes about homosexuals quarreling over which homosexual clergyman should say a prayer at the new president's inauguration. While they argue over spoils persons with disabilities continue to be ignored by these formerly oppressed groups. Adding insults to injuries journalists, politicians and clergy speak of persons with disabilities and act toward them disparagingly. Is there any wonder why journalists and politicians have so little respect among the citizens of this country?

One more article about celebrities and science. Again in this article Tom Cruise's criticism of psychiatry is cited as wrong. Still no critical skills by journalists regarding psychiatry. Journalists are as clueless as ordinary people when it comes to being fooled by corporate greed and PR.

Harvard psychiatrist Joseph Biederman (doesn't he look like the Harvard psychiatrist in the Mel Gibson film Conspiracy Theory?) took $1.6 million from drug companies to promote drug treatment. He failed to inform his employers at Mass General Hospital and at Harvard Medical School. For money he signed his name to an article published in medical journals that was written by drug companies.

This makes the entire apparatus for relying on medical peer review journals suspect. It undermines the entire medical apparatus of approving new treatments. If money determines what treatments are good how reliable are they?

Why are celebrity opinions on science ridiculed when politicians accept their endorsements and their millions to run for office? Without Hollywood celebrities and their money would Barack Obama have won the election? Why are they stupid regarding science but smart about politics? Does money make one intelligent?

Misguided Mocking of "Scientific Illiterate" Celebrities?

Misguided Mocking of "Scientific Illiterate" Celebrities?

This article ridicules celebrities and politicians for inaccurate statements about science. Included is this.

"scientific reviewers, [. . .] lambasted Tom Cruise, for his comments on psychiatry being a crime against humanity, and Julianne Moore, who warned against using products full of unnatural chemicals.

'The real crime against humanity continues to be the enduring misery caused by the major mental illnesses across the globe, and the continuing lack of resources devoted to supporting those afflicted,' said the psychiatrist Professor Simon Wessely."

But psychiatry is not science. It is personal opinion (mental illnesses are made up by consensus) masquerading as science. Psychiatry is a boondoggle that harms humans in the name of good. If that is the standard for inclusion in this article, it raises the question of the accuracy of other criticism of celebrities and politicians.

Journalists are as easily corrupted as politicians. They have misguided notions about psychiatry, and are seldom skeptical of this business which is dangerous to health and freedom.

Psychiatric Drugs are Dangerous

Psychiatric Drugs are Dangerous

What does Amato mean saying, 'Substance use is often linked with mental health issues.' Is it only persons with 'mental health issues' who use substances? Who decides what a 'mental health issue' is? Is it like a mental illness that is created by consensus? Amato does not say that psychiatric medications create emotional and cognitive problems for the people who take them. Other drugs besides opioids cause harm to humans, who sometimes harm others after ingesting the drugs. This abuse of psychiatry should be included in the mission of the CPC. Cambridge's Robert Whitaker wrote 'Mad in America,' which elaborates on this subject.

The argument used to purchase TASERs is that it is a less lethal means of subduing a suspect. But as we see in this article the police cite less harms to officers as the reason to use TASERs. That is the trouble with these lethal devices -- they are abused. Watch the TV show COPS and see how they use TASERs when a person does not obey a command. The cops forget what they are doing.

Democracy is Fragile

Democracy is Fragile

[This piece was sent to me on the internet. I do not know the source but have read similar accounts. What I can add is that democracy formed only in one of one-hundred Athenian City States. Athens discovered silver and mined it. It was able to create a democracy because it had a lot of wealth. Is freedom dependent upon wealth?
There is little knowledge or concern among many politicians and political activists for their responsibilities under a democratic system of government. In Massachusetts there is no concern about having a two-party system. Journalists are as clueless as the voters. It is not hopeful that this democracy will last. In his award winning book, Development as Freedom, Amartya Sen states the minimum requirements for a thriving democracy: a two party system; a free press and an informed electorate.]

HOW LONG DO WE HAVE?

I often hear about this democracy countdown. It is interesting to see it in print.
How Long Do We Have?
About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government."
"A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury."
"From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship."
"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years"
"During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:

1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. from dependence back into bondage"

Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:

Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29
Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republican won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..." Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.

Pat Boone notes important dangers of the homosexual lobby to the constitutional process, and their lack of respect for the rights of others. Missing from the Rieder's discussion of same sex marriage is the religious rights and the voting rights of those who oppose it.
Escalating from being sore losers to mob rule, threatening people for exercising their constitutionally guaranteed rights is a crime in some states (MA, e.g.). It does not matter if the person doing the intimidation is acting under color of law or not.
It is troubling that responsible academic journalists fail to sound the alarm of dangers to constitutional freedoms when losers intimidate voters.
The dumbing down of the electorate lays at the feet of negligent journalists who fail to keep the public informed about what freedom in this country depends. The Constitution guarantees freedom of religion, speech and the right to vote against the most vocal interest groups. Mr. Reider fails to mention this.

Courageous Capuano Clueless About Eliot Sptizer

Courageous Capuano Clueless About Eliot Sptizer

Before Eliot Spitzer was exposed trying to hide his payment to a prostitution ring, called structuring, his office used the NY State Police to investigate the President of the New York State Senate, Joe Bruno a Republican. The Albany DA, the State Public Integrity Commission, the Inspector General, and the Times-Union (newspaper) of Albany joined in the cover up of this abuse of power. Spitzer’s bank notified Dept. of Homeland Security as they are required to because Spitzer asked the bank not to use his name. Fred Dicker, New York Post reporter and NY’s Attorney General Andrew Cuomo showed integrity and did their jobs. New York is not as corrupt as Massachusetts. They eventually oust criminals in office unlike the Bay State. Spitzer is a graduate of Harvard Law School like Barack Obama, Barney Frank, and Franklin Raines. Chuck Turner is a Harvard Graduate. The New York Post reports the events leading up to Spitzer’s resignation. Stop wasting taxpayer funds and time.

Courageous Capuano expresses concern about why the Feds and New York State Attorney General investigated New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. Why does he join the outrage of the NY Public Integrity Commission, the Albany County District Attorney and the Albany Times-Union seeking to cover-up the abuses of the Harvard Law grad? Capuano laments the atrocities in Sudan by government thugs there. How many of Capuano's constituents live in New York or Sudan? When a constituent petitioned his office for relief from malfeasance in Massachusetts, he pretended not to receive dozens of calls, letters and faxes. That's as courageous as Obama suggesting that Gov. Blagojevich resign.

Harvard Appoints Lawyer to Teach Ethics

Harvard Appoints Lawyer to Teach Ethics

How is the focus of Harvard University's Edmond J. Safra Foundation Center for Ethics different from city, state and US laws? Did I miss some ethical standards besides those? Does Harvard Law School teach law, and how to get around laws? Lessig will reportedly teach 'what happens when public institutions depend on money from sources that may be affected by the work of those institutions - for example, medical research programs that receive funding from pharmaceutical companies whose drugs they review, or academics whose policy analyses are underwritten by special interest groups.' Is there any problem with a Harvard psychiatrist getting $1.6 million for signing his name to articles written by drug companies? What happens is that people are encouraged to take unsafe drugs which make people ill. Duh! Do academic consultants to School Committees have any conflicts with colleagues who teach at their institutions? What happens is they get their associates high paying jobs. Duh!
Are there not enough laws in place now? Or is the problem lack of enforcement by elected and appointed officials? Why will Lessig 'encourage teaching and research about ethical issues in public and professional life?'
Saying teaching ethics is of 'enormous importance to our democracy,' sounds like the Harvard Lawyer City Councilor (Hint: BM) promoting democracy by censoring citizen public comment.

ABC NEWS on Conspiracy

ABC NEWS on Conspiracy

This article by Lauren Cox accepts psychiatry without questions. (LAUREN COX, "What's Behind Internet Conspiracy Empires?" ABC News, Dec. 12, 2008) She is unconcerned that psychiatric illnesses are created by consensus not science.

Cox says "subcultures built on paranoid theories like gang stalkers, points to an understudied corner in psychiatry: Who are the people who believe such theories in the quiet of their homes, and what does such behavior mean for a person teetering on the edge of mental illness?"

What is "the edge of mental illness?" Is it like being "a little bit pregnant?"

Cox says, "Whether or not conspiracy theories harm people who are susceptible to mental illness is a matter of debate among psychiatrists." If a fact is subject to debate is it a scientific fact? If it is "a matter of debate" how can it be used to decide if a person's speech or behavior is mental illness? Can anyone cite a rational standard for who is not "susceptible to mental illness?" Have some persons' (e.g., psychiatrists') genes been cleansed of mental illness?

Cox quotes a high ranking official of the National Alliance of Mental Illness. Is that different from the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill? That organization was founded by parents of persons accused of mental illness. NAMI is used by all forms of their formal name. NAMI gets about $3 million each year from drug companies to promote drug treatment. They do not advocate for the rights of the accused. Many if not most clueless journalists describe NAMI as advocates. But they do not identify that they advocate for more funds for more drug treatment. NAMI's idea of discrimination is denying a person drug treatment. They do not care about being denied police protection from psychiatric criminals and from ordinary criminals. NAMI promotes forced treatment. What other illness uses police to force treatment?

"Most people with major mental illness don't believe in conspiracy theories," said Dr. Ken Duckworth, medical director of the National Alliance of Mental Illness. How does he know that? Has he asked all persons accused of "major" mental illness? Why did Cox report that comment with no evidence?

According to Angus MacDonald, a spokesperson for the mental health charity NARSAD, and an associate professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, most delusions begin with general, unexplained feelings of discontent that are caused by a problem with the brain. It's only when someone tries to search for an explanation for their feelings that a delusion forms.

Do these sentences make any sense? What is the connection between "unexplained feelings of discontent" and "a problem with the brain?" Where is the evidence of any connection? Why is this statement quoted with no evidence? Is this sloppy journalism? Or is it a PR piece masquerading as news?

Does quoting a "spokesman" for a charity make any sense? If the matter has not been studied what value do MacDonald's comments have? Are they any more than personal opinion?

"You're sitting across from your therapist and they say, 'Well why would they do all of this?' And you've got the answers because you've studied online," he said.
Like Donald Rumsfeld, MacDonald asks and conveniently answers his own questions. He omits any other possible answers, such as they are paid to conduct surveillance and harassment. It is a criminal enterprise. Furthermore, do therapists ask rape victims why they were raped? Motive is a matter of fact to be determined in a court not in a therapist's office.

This article shows that psychiatric standards are being used to determine what speech is acceptable or if it should be censored by psychiatry. This is a First Amendment issue. Speech and behavior protected by the US Constitution and by state laws are being prohibited by psychiatrists who do not like or do not understand the speech or the behavior. This is a totalitarian practice that must end. Why do journalists encourage censoring protected speech?

This article marginalizes crime victims saying they are mentally ill. The same people make being mentally ill a matter for unlawful discrimination. What difference does it make if a person is mentally ill? Is that a crime, a contagious illness? Is it ever OK to ignore a person due to alleged mental illness?

That was done to homosexuals, Black Americans, women, rape victims and children. In December 2008 it was reported that the Chinese government is using psychiatry to discredit whistle blowers. Are we expected to believe that Americans do not that?

A rational explanation for stalking, harassment as a criminal conspiracy is these people may be human subjects for involuntary government human experiments. The US Air Force tests high tech directed energy weapons for many years. The US government has a long and despicable history of conducting non-consenting human experiments on civilians.

Michael D'Antonio wrote about radiation experiments over 30 years on developmentally disabled persons at the Fernald School in Massachusetts. ("Atomic Guinea Pigs," New York Times Magazine, August 31, 1997; State Boys Rebellion, Simon and Schuster, 2004) The experiments were conducted from 1944 to 1974. It was not recognized as an abuse by journalists until 2003 after US Secretary of Energy Hazel O'Leary released documents admitting the government's role working with MIT and Quaker Oats Company.

When students at the Fernald School figured out who was doing what to them, they complained to the Department of Energy. Government employees referred to the victims as "the crazies." How is this different from what this article and the drug company promoters say about the current victims of abuse?

Government psychiatrists and colleagues deny they abuse mental patients using them for experiments. Patients are alleged to have lucid moments when they give informed consent. The rest of the time when they complain about abuse they are ignored as in this article.

Censorship by Scientists

Censorship by Scientists

[These are excerpts from a previous article by Lauren Cox who wrote an article about conspiracy theories.]

“Francesca Grifo, director of the scientific integrity program at the Union of Concerned Scientists in Washington D.C., agrees with Kempner on this point.

‘This notion of the chilling effect hits across the federal government,’ said Grifo. ‘It's not just the folks who are being funded by federal funds, it's career scientists as well.’

Grifo said her group has noticed the influence of politics can dissuade scientists from studying anything, including wildlife, when economics or ideologies are at stake.”

[My comment posted on ABCNEWS.com]
Censorship of science has a long history. The greatest example is when Copernicus observed that the Earth was not the center of the Universe. Galileo recanted his support for Copernicus when he was threatened. St. Bruno was executed. At the same time psychiatry replaced the Church as censor of unpopular or new knowledge, which denies the current dominant paradigm. What makes matters worse is that psychiatry masquerades as science when it is no more than personal opinion. Psychiatric illnesses are created by consensus not science. These unscientific illnesses are used to discredit proponents of unpopular ideas. See related article

They believe that their own politicians do not lie, only the opposition politicians. This is classic denial and stupidity among the voters. How can anyone believe what any politician says or does is on the up and up. Obama especially is a pol from Chicago and is a Harvard lawyer. Barney Frank, Eliot Spitzer, Franklin Raines and Marc Dreier (charged with $380 million fraud and criminal impersonation) are all Harvard lawyers. As Howie Carr (Boston Radio Talk Show host says of the Massachusetts legislature) "Nothing on the level. Everything's a deal. No deal too small."

Pure American Psychiatrists

Why is it news that the Chinese government (and the Former Soviet Union) places whistle blowers in mental hospitals but when the US, state and local American governments do the same it is never recognized as the same abuse? The genes of American psychiatrists have been cleansed of greed, mendacity and sadism?

New York Gov. David Paterson's real goal, he said, is to follow in Barack Obama's footsteps and be president of the United States, because: "Once you go black, you don't go back."

This is not racist because it was said by a black man? Ahem! If Bush or McCain or Palin said it, it would be the front page story for weeks. Stop the nonsense please.

The Perfect People

George Geller Of Teamsters Local 237 “that represents school safety agents and said [. . .] This is a force that is 75 percent female, 95 percent black and Latino and the idea that they are persecuting poor students in New York City is preposterous." (Cindy Hsu, “Student: I Was Beat Up By Security For Having Cell
Teen Sues NYC High School,” NEW YORK (WCBS-TV), Dec 8, 2008) What is preposterous is suggesting that female, black and Latino school employees are incapable of abusing their power. This is pure nonsense to suggest that some ethnic groups and one gender are perfect and do not have the ability to be cruel and oppressive. That is what makes the discrimination lobby thrive. Some groups are angels and white heterosexual males are all pure evil. Stop the nonsense and recognize that all people are the same and have the same potential negative characteristics.

Rewriting History

Rewriting History

Lou Lumenick says, "Nixon's undoing, of course, was the Watergate
break-in - and its extensive coverup - that he had authorized as part
of his campaign for re-election in 1972." (LOU LUMENICK, "Nixon's The
One," New York Post, December 5, 2008) What role do journalists play
in the dumbing down of America?
Nixon vigorously protected his employees trying to cover up the
break-in at the Democratic party headquarters. Nixon did not order the
break-in. John Dean approved that. (Len Colodny and Robert Gettlin,
"Silent Coup," silent coup.com, watergate.com)
Political intelligence and strategy were kept at the candidate's
headquarters. The motive at Watergate was to retrieve an address book,
which had Dean's phone number in it.
Making up facts keeps the electorate ignorant. Film reviews are
not reliable history.

articles that were written by drug companies. He accepted more than $1
million from drug companies, and did not inform his employer Mass

Beyond Rent Control

Beyond Rent Control

[This letter was published in The New York Times on November 28, 1994]

To the Editor:

Your Nov. 22 article about the Massachusetts referendum on the issue of rent control reports inaccurately the outcome of the vote: "Only Boston, Brookline and Cambridge voted -- in large numbers -- to keep rent control legal. The rest of the state voted to abolish it."

At least New Bedford, Springfield and Fall River also voted to let municipalities impose rent control.

Just as the Federal Government takes power from states contrary to the 10th Amendment, states are usurping local powers. It is typical of the arbitrary application of legal doctrine that is widespread in the land.

Treating Persons with Disabilities

In this essay Ann Coulter wonders why the terrorists attacked Mumbai after the US elected Barack Obama. Did they not get the memo that they are supposed to love Americans now?

She reveals that one terrorist released from Guantanamo had a prosthetic leg fitted at a cost to US taxpayers of $50,000 to $75,000. He returned to Afghanistan to resume his terrorism against the US. News reports failed to state where he got his prosthetic leg.

Fair Weather Constitutionalists

Fair Weather Constitutionalists

Christine Vachon says, “Many straight people really don't understand it's a civil rights issue." Huh? Yes it is a civil rights issue, the right of a person to express his or her views on political issues. That is the civil right that is unrecognized by homosexuals. In Massachusetts it is a crime whether or not acting under color of law to intimidate a person in the free exercise of a constitutionally guaranteed right. Harassing a person for his expression is intimidation. The US Civil Rights Act Title 42 Chapter 1983 made it a crime to intimidate a person acting under color of law. That is what the police used to do to black persons who tried to vote. Now homosexuals do the same to persons who exercise First Amendment Rights.
The homosexual lobby wants the legal stamp of approval for their relationships. But they refuse to extend the same legal rights to those who disagree with them. It is their way or the highway -- one-sided support for constitutional law. If they win they support the law but if they lose they throw a tantrum. These are adults acting like infants showing no respect for others. It leads to mob rule, something that the homosexual lobby should fear because of their numbers.
This report does not mention the violation of constitutional rights by zealous disrespectful homosexual thugs.

Choosing the Best Choice?

The letter-writer is putting 'The cart before the horse.' First the School Committee needs to appoint a search committee to find a suitable consultant to study the standards for a new Superintendent. Then the study group must study who is qualified. Only then can the study group interview qualified candidates. After the study group makes its recommendation the School Committee can choose the new superintendent. This is makes more sense than 'Counting one's chickens before they lay the eggs,' and also 'Closing the barn door after the cow has left.' But 'Filling in the well after the calf has drowned,' is better than 'Banging one's head against the wall.'

Over the past months I posted funny pictures and jokes for friends I
thought shared the same sense of humor. Unfortunately this wasn't the case and I seem to have upset quite a few people who have accused me of being sexist and shallow.
If you were one of these people, please accept my humblest apologies.
From now on I will only post items with a cultural or educational content
such as old monuments, nature and other interesting structures.

Attached you'll find a picture of the Pont Neuf Bridge in Paris.
For those of you who are interested, Pont Neuf is the oldest bridge in
Paris and took 26 years to build. Construction began in 1578 and ended in 1604.
'Le Pont Neuf' is actually made of 2 independent bridges, one with seven
arches and the other with five arches.
Fascinating.

Homosexual Priorities

Homosexual Priorities

Glad to see that the homosexual lobby is focused on the country’s best interest. While the financial system crumbles, the homosexual lobby focuses laser-like on same sex marriage and fights the will of the people in three states. The efforts to thwart voters by exploiting sympathetic courts and judges shows how devoted they are to the constitutional process and the public good.
When McCain-Palin supporters take to the streets to demonstrate around Harvard University, Barbra Streisand’s home and Bill Ayers’ home, will the homosexual lobby support that mob as well? If mob rule is preferred let all interest groups protest the outcome of voting. States can save millions by eliminating the ballot box, which always gets it wrong when homosexuals are involved.

FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1994

* Mr. KLEIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Mrs. Mary Seczawinski, a woman who has dedicated the past 32 years of her life to the Passaic, NJ school system. It is with great pride that I join the students and staff of Passaic High School in honoring the devoted foreign language teacher and trusted friend.

* Mrs. Seczawinski's teaching achievements reflect the scope of her influence and commitment to her students. In 1991, she received The Governor's Award for Excellence in Teaching. Through the recommendation of a former student, she was honored at the William Paterson College of New Jersey in 1993. The nomination cited Mrs. Seczawinski as the teacher who had a great affect on her life. Her students have followed a variety of career paths, becoming everything from attorneys and physicians to teachers and musicians, including the recording artists `The Shirelles.'

* Her efforts on behalf of Passaic High School extend beyond academic education. Mrs. Seczawinski has served not only as a teacher, but as a friend and adviser as well. She has been called upon by individual students a countless number of times, and always responded to the young adults' needs with consideration and care. Mrs. Seczawinski has instilled respect and responsibility in her students, and the Passaic schools have greatly benefited from her positive influence.

* For decades, Mrs. Seczawinski has demonstrated her dedication to Passaic High School, and I know she will be deeply missed by both students and staff. I am proud to have the opportunity to ask my colleagues to join me in wishing here continued success on this distinguished occasion.

Incubator for Hate

Incubator for Hate

Irrational hate for President Bush is no more pervasive than in and around Cambridge, MA host city of Harvard University and MIT. When I point this out I am attacked as being irrational and often racist. There are no more infantile political activists than those who believe they are superior to others. That is a problem in the halls of academe. Limosine liberals are the most intolerant and most hostile to skepticism of all the political strains operating in this country. Being a one-party state makes intolerance a Massachusetts state policy.

Ann Coulter suggests showing the same respect and level of speech for Obama as was shown for Bush. If that happens it will be a long hard administration for the inexperienced Senator with the gerat speaking ability.

What a delight to see homosexual thugs exercising their
constitutional rights to demonstrate against the voting results

who refuse to play by the rules of a civil constitutional society.
They want what they want and refuse to take no for an answer. When
they do not get their way they throw a tantrum.

In Massachusetts where the homosexual lobby intimidates spineless
politicians the homosexuals refused to allow the voters in that state
to vote on the issue.They employed a corrupt judiciary to get their
way contrary to the will of the voters and the constitutional rules of
that state. It shows that homosexuals do not believe in the rule of

Protect Minorities

If it is time for a New World Order and a global society, it is also time to recognize that white humans are a minority in the world. They make up only 16 percent of the world population. They are entitled to protections under the affirmative action programs and also to protections from hate crimes by persons of color whether or not acting under color of law. Before we take all of the money in the US and transfer it to other countries we need to protect the basic human rights of all white persons in this country just as we protected the rights of persons of color for 40 years with their benefits as a minority.

Who but the brain-dead deny white racism existed in this country for many years? Why is white racism elevated over other forms of odious bias? Jews were rounded up and killed by government officials in Germany and in Russia. Why is this less of an issue? Has this country elected a Jewish President yet? In Cambridge the police condone and participate in daily criminal harassment of persons with disabilities -- not 100 or 50 years ago, but today. Elected officials express outrage at white racism, and hate speech regarding homosexuals. But they ignore black racism, and criminal abuses of persons with disabilities today. What is wrong with the reasoning process of well-intentioned citizens? Is it only what gets printed in the New York Times and highlighted by PBS that is real? Is it Eddie Murphy's lament when his wife catches him in bed with another woman, "Who you gonna believe me or your lying eyes?"

While we're at it what about an Italian American President? Armenian-American? Etc? Why are African American achievements over-celebrated? Is white guilt any part of it, while no guilt for other forms of bias? As for the daily harassment of persons with disabilities (no bias there Ahem!) I just love the reaction of those compassionate liberals in Cambridge. Do they also doubt that a Cambridge landlord refused to rent to a person with a disability? A liberal in Cambridge?

Lawyers commenting on Americans with Disabilities Act

Lawyers commenting on Americans with Disabilities Act

This is a link to a list of blog entries regarding lawyer abuses, specifically
regarding litigation using the Americans With Disabilities Act. The anger of lawyers and judges makes this a perplexing barrier. Perhaps the US Courts need to be sued for their abuses denying equal protection of the laws, denying access to persons with disabilities to First Amendment Rights, including the Right to be heard, the Right to access and the Right to redress.

Shielding

This report may apply to the needs of individuals who are being tormented by electrical weapons. There may be more to this report, but the idea of generating magnetic fields seems to make sense. If it can be done with a $20 magnet what else is needed?

New Ink Technology

New Ink Technology

Using electronic print has its advantages. It is easier to rewrite history and to censor or to spin unpopular facts. Obama ran a campaign focused on manipulating human emotions.

Few people are aware of how emotions influence their thoughts and behavior. Harvard psychologists and PR flacks designed this right brain campaign. It explains much support for a man who is a gifted speaker with no recognizable abilities or experience. Expect more censorship enabled by this new technology. See e.g.

"More than 23,000 people have participated in Camp Obama, [. . .] The
training session [is] designed to to channel the enthusiasm of voters
who are emotionally inspired by orators such as Obama [instead of
appealing] to voters logic by selling concepts and policies."
This was a campaign manipulating human emotions, which few people have
an awareness of how they influence their thoughts and behavior. Does this explain the infantile emotional responses to Republicans in the incubator states for limousine liberals?

Here's another article reported in the Harvard Law Record about Cass Sunstein's studies on extremism in political activity. One Cambridge man who is a retired Vice President at Boston University challenged my comments about how few Cambridge residents think rationally. He told me that that is nonsense and asked if I was a racist. Here is more evidence that I am correct. Cambridge is the most intolerant place I've ever lived with extremist positions openly expressed toward anyone who disagrees with them.

In a recorded interview Obama explains his intention to bankrupt the coal industry. But the San Francisco Chronicle omitted the story. One more instance of "objective" media in the tank for Obama.

Standards of Washington DC Politicians

Standards of Washington DC Politicians

House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers has written to Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff requesting an immediate investigation of the leak, which he deemed "deplorable" and said "was not the first leak of law enforcement information apparently designed to influence the coming presidential election," referring to an ongoing investigation of voter fraud by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN.

He is unconcerned about the “leak” of personal information of Joe “The Plumber,” who was a private individual before the press made him into a public figure.

Since when is a court decision private information? How is that a leak? Why isn’t Conyers outraged that an illegal alien is receiving housing assistance when so many American veterans remain homeless? What are the standards for these obscene elected officials in Washington DC? Have they no shame?

Maggie Gallagher says of Barack Obama "he's the guy who raised $750
million in campaign cash in part by removing ordinary controls from
his Web site donation system, such as a requirement that you provide
your real name and address or your credit card won't be accepted."

I'm curious how a man of change can accept $750 million and give most
of it to major corporations to promote his image. Isn't that what
Fidel Castro the Cuban man of change did there?

everyone knows the mafia got Kennedy elected and everyone knows that the media is going to get Obama elected. Just like the mafia, the media will feel he owes them a big favor and when he doesn’t return the favor, they will burn his ass.

Happy Shock

Happy Shock

Here’s the latest abuse created by psychiatric madmen. This involves use of magnetic coils, for patients whose traditional treatment “failed.” This sounds like one of the many attempts to cure schizophrenia described by Robert Whitaker in his book, “Mad in America.” Whitaker describes the thousands of people who were legally brutalized by psychiatric madmen who tormented them to try to cure an illness that may not exist.
Previous uses of electrical treatments were demonstrated by Jose Delgado and in one of Nick Begich’s books about electromagnetic radiation, “Angels Don’t Play This HAARP.” One solution is to pretend to be happy in order to keep these criminal predators away.
There are already alternative experiments being conducted by criminal researchers on unsuspecting humans using electromagnetic radiation and pulsed microwaves, which are promoted as another way to “cure” depression.
When psychiatrists promote “alternative” treatments to toxic drugs, be aware that there are more terrible ways to destroy your brain. If you allow the priests of psychiatry to do it, they will.

I Don't Know Nothin'

Local police chase pot smokers. State police chase speeders on the turnpike. The FBI looks for James Bulger. Criminal geeks are stealing millions and harassing ordinary citizens. Local police say they don't know what to do. State police refer you to other agencies. The FBI won't get involved unless at least $75,000 is involved. Criminals and spies use technology to disrupt the lives of ordinary citizens. When will the police learn how to defend citizens from high tech abuses by organized crime and spies? Or are they being paid to ignore these crimes? Are they stupid, poorly trained or corrupt?

Innocent Senator Arrested

Innocent Senator Arrested

Sen. Diane is INNOCENT. Her lawyer and the three non lawyers in Massachusetts who read the Constitution say she is INNOCENT until proven guilty. Has she been proven guilty? No! So she must be innocent. Since she is innocent why was she arrested? As Jesse Jackson says, "Text without context, is pretext." Her lawyer Max "The Taxman" Stern says he will explain the context in court. Is Sen. Diane the only Massachusetts elected official who took money to advocate for her constituents? How dare the FBI and the US Attorney arrest this politician duly elected by the PEEPUL?

Note: WRKO which is the Boston radio station that broadcasts Howie Carr, Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage reported this arrest on October 28, 2008 saying "Senator Diane Wilkerson, State Senator was arrested . . ."
But the newsman said "Republican Senator Ted Stevens was convicted . . ."
I called into the Howie Carr show and he said that in Massachusetts it was assumed that she is a Democrat because there are so few Republicans. He said "It saves a word." Regarding her lawyer's statement I suggested, "Who you gonna believe me or the lying video tape?"
"I always carry large sums of money in my brassiere."

Negative Campaigning, Scare Tactics

Negative Campaigning, Scare Tactics

This letter is negative campaigning using scare tactics. Are these all Obama supporters? Shocking to find four in Cambridge, the home of the right-wing conspiracy. The usual suspects oppose question one. Those who get the most from taxpayer funds. The Biotech industry already got its $1 billion. The CEOs of the many Human Services Industrial Complex non profits earn their $300,000 per plus benefits. How many psychiatrists and psychologists earn six figure incomes predicting the future and pushing toxic chemicals on children and other vulnerable people using the taxpayer's dime? How many more ancillary employees of the public schools, who contribute not-so-much to teaching and learning of students are needed?

Innocent Until Proven Guilty

Innocent Until Proven Guilty

Innocent until proven guilty is the key to this and also to why the FBI can't "find" James Bulger and Osama bin Laden who are innocent. If the FBI finds them and the citizens force the FBI to bring them to trial they may be found guilty. But as long as the FBI can't find them they are INNOCENT! Hopkins' mistake was doing radio where he was easily found. Remember, innocent until proven guilty.
