Nationalism is an important 21st century political concept, one upon which the future of political self-determination in the next century rests. For individualism to continue to exist as the goal of liberalism, and for the expression of individual development to find support from political entities of power that decree what any human soul may or may not do, to limit the powers of government to largely external, necessary regulatory pursuits that support individual liberties national primacy must remain the basic foundation of politics if the massified degradation of human life is to be avoided.
It might be best to consider particular nations, or even a particular nation first in quest of a comprehension of the meaning of a nation, yet the nations of the world vary so much in history and in meaning for the people of those nations. Nations do have set, specific boundaries which are made in declaration of the realm of political jurisdiction of the governing power.
Iraq has a history that may exceed that of any other on the Earth. If one wants to describe a nation by the characteristic of its geographic area, Iraq encompassed the first civilization at Summer and Akkad. It was conquered by numerous neighboring people yet retained a cultural identity as an ancient 'melting pot'. The Achemenid empire of Iranians or Persians followed upon the ancient civilizations of Ur and Babylon, and rule by Assyrians, Greeks and Romans. A Parthian and Sassanid Empire restored Persian rule for a time until the battle of Qadisiyya in 636 in which Arabs conquered the region of Iraq...their Abbasid power went in to decline by the 10th century.
Between the 10th century and 1638 when the Ottoman Empire was firmly established to last until the early 20th century when they were defeated by the British in the first world war and Iraq was formally created as a nation in 1920 by the British Government Iraq has a host of invasive ruling powers from a son of Genghis Khan to Tamarlane the Turk who bragged about piling up a mountain of skulls. Even amidst all of the horrors of war and repression of corrupt governments the Mesopotamian region by the rivers had an informal identity as a nation-it would impress itself upon those that lived and died in the region.
A nation today such as Iraq is in the midst of the perennial struggle for free individual self-actualization and security, and the United States of America is helping with that process. Life and time is fleeting however; determination and intelligence are reciprocal elements necessary to bring the politically possible into the realm of the politically actualized. So before we move on to more generally considerations about the nature of what a nation is, lets consider some of the 21st century requisites in macro-economics that might be recognized to stabilize the ongoing civil strife in Iraq created by governing power malfeasance...
U.S. Iraq policy implementation increasingly is inefficient. Macro-economic restructuring in Iraq is directed toward neo-classical policies of growth and consumption. Economic growth is considered a necessary fact for the improvement of the quality of life. The realm and range of economic growth and its effects upon th environment isn't considered sufficiently to coincide with an efficient application of economic policy.
Military power is used at substantial cost to the United States to restore or build toward a neo-classical economic structure in national Iraq. A better approach would be to use principles of developing environmental economics. Utilization of environmental biotic and abiotic elements can be done in such a way that the allocation of resources and employment of social effort increase social peace rather that conflict. The present Bush administration hasn't had much appreciation of real-world environmental economics since the end of the 2003 Gulf war perhaps because its neo-con political assumptions bet that neo-classical economic goals and structures would be applied for universal profit even with recalcitrant or unwilling Iraqis in the midst. The neo-classical assumptions were inefficient and presented paradigms of insolvable macro-social dilemmas that required sustenance by a largess of U.S. federal spending for inefficient military and civil contractor projects. The military can not inevitably be used to prop up with success inefficient macro-economic foreign policy.
The United States cannot simply withdraw and enable a further chapter of tragedy in Iraq, yet with a new administration and a host of environmental economists unconventional, adaptive economic policy might be set in Iraq to empower the people to peace through home-power production, canal building and wetlands restoration projects and through a survey of new interactive economic structures with existing free natural services such as the atmosphere and its free oxygen delivery for breathing work. The use of that atmosphere as a sewer for automobile, truck and industrial waste should be halted, and electric vehicle platforms accentuated to replace them a.s.a.p. Yet to return to the general subject of nations...
A nation is a noun in a genre of political terms describing formation and boundaries. While time presents tensors of perpetual change cohesion and coherence of various peoples within an electrical communications context or without offers opportunities challenging conceptualization of what makes the bonds holding an identity group together actual.
In considering the idea of what makes a political classification meaningful, and representative of the object it designates it is useful to consider the historical evolution of human social groups in order to understand how and why nationalism developed as a term.
Out of Africa perhaps 100,200 years before present just 2000 male ancestors became the forebears of all living human beings (along with their women). Dispersion of those individuals from a metaphorical 'ark' led across the globe to cultural and physiological differentiation. There are perhaps 50 specific genes found uniquely in various human sub groups as a consequence of the diaspora from ground zero. The differences are not at all bad nor do they constitute a vast gap for human understanding. Melanin for example allows utilization of radiation for ways unavailable for those without, and malarial preventing gene adaptation is useful.
Humanity forging local identities as peoples sometime coalescing and sometimes diverging. Like corporations and monopolies there are periods of diversification and consolidation toward monopolization. Language and culture have experienced the same characteristics of group association. Nations tend to be longer lasting, more substantial clumps of human social and political association, yet in the river of time they tend to disassociate and dissolve after universal phases or less than universal phases in even arrested developments.
Nations such as Israel began with the legendary entry of Abraham into the promised land following the call of God. Egypt began as a nation or as an empire in the fourth millennium B.C., while the Shang culture grew historically following the cult of the Yellow Emperor. Charlemagne, son of the illegitimate Charles Martel who defeated the Arab armies of the Umma at Tours in the 8th century was the founder of the Carolingian Empire, and eventually of the Holy Roman Empire. That entity encompassed France and Germany, which in turn occupied what had been a part of trans-alpine Gaul during the Roman tenancy. Nations that spun off over the following centuries comprised bargaining units sometime fighting through wars and joining through dynastic marriages lands with peoples moving toward a common language with common interests. The protestant reformation and the renaissance brought trans-national movement that also formed common bonds. Governments and nations have tended to develop along natural boundaries as well with social organizational phenomena sometimes of a trans-national nature.
The word nation may be used by Pee Wee Herman's Big Show Wunderbar Nation, if such were in demand on reality t.v., or in Fred Toughguy's used car nation, or even in the Nation of Crumpets-yet it is the political nation historically that we pursue the meaning of. Some would identify the origin of nations with democratic revolts against empires of Europe and that would be fair, yet it is unfair to discredit Vernagian Sweden as a nation before the 12th century just because they liked northern boating and giving lung water-wings with incisions to captives.
One might consider a republic to be for concept of a nation. The Republic of Plato, The Roman Republic, the U.S. Republic and others were republics sometime greater than city-state status. From language to language what makes a nation out of a people-be it the Cherokee nation, the Sioux nation, the Aztecs or the Parthians is fairly well understood. People may be free or captive, savages or sophisticates but their identity as either tribes or selected members of an exclusive political body with a territorial and power identity comprising Independence amidst the world's people is recognized. A nation does seem to have the most general set of qualifiers for inclusion of a people within a political unit. Many peoples historically have simply named themselves 'the people' in their own language, and the people have tended to have a turf of their own in which their 'nation' lived.
Florence of the Medici was a Republic in the 14th and 15th century at a time when the Ottoman Empire occupied the whole of the Balkan peninsula. The Medici and the Hapsburgs with their possession of Vienna juxtaposed various renaissance ideas of imperialism and populism alongside traditions of an Eastern and Western Roman Empire as well as the great empires from history south of the Mediterranean sea within a social maelstrom of general progress and change. At one time their were three popes simultaneously ruling from Avignon, Rome and with Pope John the Twenty-Third a fugitive until arrested and eventually ransomed free. Machiavelli developed political ideas of nationalism and how a prince should rule over corrupt people and corrupt human nature within the cunning of a fox and the strength of a lion, and Machiavelli's ideas supported a growing European polity seeking to express itself eventually through a free press, free assembly and a variety of civil liberties concepts designed to correct not only the corruption of a decadent Catholic Church hierarchical priesthood in which Bishop's miters were bought and sold and one pope was accused of seducing more than a hundred Italian women but to support the home-rule of people exploited by distant monarchs and threatened by a vast collection of oppressive government officials. Nationalism as a political concept matured as turmoil politically and wars disestablished political regimes and the people with an emergent in intellectual class were forced to fend for themselves.
Nationalism developed in England as a natural progression of competition by various different peoples such as Scotch, Irish, Brits, Normans, Welsh and Vikings striving under different political and family traditions to survive as free people. Even the Romans with Julius Caesar fought as a nation of Italians and with an expanded Republic turned into an Empire to control England, France or trans-Alpine Gaul, Spain and Carthage. Nations developed somewhat naturally as a political concept expressing popular interests from below, while empire's ruled from above and forced everyone into a common bondage and servility except for the nobility. In imperial Russia the table of ranks gave every noteworthy person a royal rank down to 200 levels, and the remainder were serfs or meaningless traders, yet the people still had a concept of a nation that would survive the end of the empire, the end of Stalinist communism and into the 21st century beyond two world wars. Nationalism bound Russian Slavs together both in race, language, history and land. History itself can make people a part of a nation.
In South Africa external pressures brought Afrikaners together to feel themselves a nation. Brits tended to think of themselves as part of an empire, while Zulu's with their fairly recent arrival in South Africa historically felt themselves as a nation even as they traveled along east Africa subjugating various Bantu peoples in the process. Zulu sailors making their way to ancient Iraq felt themselves in all likelihood part of an extended nation, as Saudis may today with their extreme oil wealth surpassing even Exxon-Mobils' U.S. record 40 billion dollar profit last fiscal year.
In Germany it was the failure of a nation and sense of nationalism to be fulfilled until the unification of east and west Germany in 1990 that had bedeviled that people with a congress of wars and government change since the Napoleonic invasion of the early 1800's. Not until 1917 did the German's get rid of it royalty, and democracy was aborted by the third Reich as the people pressured on the west by post war reparations and territorial demands and on the east by a huge Bolshevik menace succumbed to the militarism that was largely a continuum from the deposed nobility. The Werhmacht leadership sent the charismatic speaker Adolph Hitler to the German Workers Socialist Party to take over it's leadership and the rest is history. Germans with incredible civil financial chaos and hyperinflation were pushovers for militaristic voodoo economics that led to war. Germany had only become a nation in 1881 finally ridding itself of Austrian rulers (Hitler was also from Vienna).
Nationalism is a fundamental territorial definition for a democracy. Nationalism is a finite political bargaining unit. A nation is a way of drawing a line against the rest of the world in making a claim of political independence. A nation is a way to deny global predators the opportunity to plunder one with a plethora of taxes, disadvantages and vague corruptions that effectively deny one and other citizens the right of local political self-determination. A democratic nation is the bane of emperors and planetary proletarians seeking to redistribute servility to everyone.

On the end of the Internet as we know it, this one goes out to those still able to decipher data bits in crystal lattices...Small worlds network modeling of the Internet finds remarkable associate cluster conformity and neuronal transmission pathway congruence with other small worlds networks outside the universe of computing. Perhaps the Braham Institute of Cambridge U.K. has discovered some sort of electronic arterial sclerosis that isn't subject to pharmaceutical remediation yet it seems unlikely, since the origin of the Internet was in an U.S. Air Force project to make nuclear war survivable communications with redundant and independent routes of communication. September 2008 seems somewhat early for a conventional over-use gridlock of Internet bit sharing to occur, yet demyelination paradigms of data guide-paths precipitated into catastrophic transformation could develop consequent to concatenated information piracy creating an extreme Shannon entropy concurrence. Possibly a lot of global electromagnetic detonations producing (emp) pulses could shut down the global telecommunications network before an alternative system of flagging could be improvised. Space aliens could take over the Federal Government at any moment too, yet it seems improbably because of the inability of any intelligent life in the Universe to comprehend the rational for federal economic management policy that takeover by hostile aliens is improbably before October or November 2008.
Senator Edward Kennedy split the Democratic Party nominating primaries in 1980 when he ran against the incumbent Democratic President James Earl Carter. That was before the Internet era and before the creation of scheduled technological disasters. Ted Kennedy was the last candidate that sought to release committed delegates in order to change their vote allegiance. Hillary Clinton seeks to release the bound delegates forced to work for the Obama campaign (a candidate that claims to be able to unite the nation following the split after the civil war of 1860-1865). An Internet collapse will transplace U.S. time to the pre-electric era when slave importation had been forbidden just 20 years after the end of the articles of confederation era and federal sailing ships patrolled the coast to arrest slave running illegal alien ships. Senator Kennedy loathed Jimmy (The Peanut) Carter perhaps because of his southern, British ancestry (something similar to the Bill Clintons incidentally). Senator Edward Kennedy has again engineered support for a major split in the Democratic Party once again setting up a Republican victory by his declared support for Obama. In theory a racial bomb will go off if Obama isn't elected to 'heal' the racial divide and end the war in Iraq that ended in 2003 followed by an incompetent era of nation rebuilding efforts unassisted by Senator Obama the last three years still seeking to 'end the war'.
The interesting question to consider here before the Internet era ends possibly in September thus halting Internet campaign contributions to Democratic candidates is; 'How much is Obama really like J.F.K.'? We will briefly review President Kennedy's history from the intercepted alien historical rave communique of the time period before he ran for the Presidency, coincidentally in the year of Obama's birth (watch this for space alien juxtapositions)...
The young John F. Kennedy was raised in a cross binned hurricane. He was drowned and left for dead and raised by a toothless dispirited hag when his cigarette boat was cut in two offshore by a fast Japanese tourist cruise ship passing one night. John Kennedy and his crew of coke-heads with adolescent adjustment problems had engine troubles and were adrift before suddenly discovering their fast boat cut in twain and themselves plunged into the shark infested waters. With Senator Kennedy's leadership the ship was pieced together with super-glue and motored slowly to Kevins Bar in Molokai Bay where they survived on for a month on coconuts and pina coladas in a reality television show before rescue and education in an Indonesian madrasa where they ignored fellow students bowing to Mecca and became followers of Rhinehold Neibuhr. So did Barrack Obama.

Obama's Hillary Bashing Butches
Supply and demand facts set gas prices. The role of government taxation on the price of gas is far more complex. One might gas taxes by world governments to those of the United States to determine if the difference is enough to create a national advantage or disadvantage in world trade and domestic economic efficiency. The primary phenomenality about the cost of fuel within the whole U.S. economy is the reliance of the nation upon it, and what tax money on fuel is done to discover a way to eliminate fossil fuel from use a the essential energy for domestic transportation because of the high external costs needed to secure supply from dangerous world locations such as Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela and Nigeria. The present presidential candidates for the democratic party seem to have failed to comprehend the facts about oil supply, or at least B. Hussein Obama has failed to comprehend the relationship of American involvement in Iraq to oil supply, and how the war tax is in effect a necessary tax upon gasoline to secure supply. Thus I will write more about the problem of Senator Obama and the immediate candidacy against Hillary Clinton, because the outcome of that race will determine the price of gasoline for years to come. Obama is the way to high gas prices, national economic disaster and high gasoline taxes, while Senator Clinton is more competent regarding the realities of oil.
Bomber's Butches are beating Hillary's April primary campaign with a vengeance, and a purpose. Obama's non-sense about U.S. Iraq and oil policy doesn't get through to his step up to the urinal supporters from Vermont and Massachusetts that simply prefer to suck up to Obama instead of Hillary in the White House, so I will clarify some of the disingenuous facts about U.S. oil policy and Iraq.
First; democratic policy regarding Iraq since the sanctions were set upon it following the first Gulf War were cowardly. The Democrats never had the guts to face up to the real oil and political facts of life. When their narcissistic naked butts are in the field they are sure the kindness of strangers will bring Utopia rather than a bullet in the head; they can block out the undesirable realities of the democide that enabled during the sanctions by Saddam Hussein on innocent women and children. So long as democrats could drive SUV's and buy oil for a buck and a quarter a gallon dead women and children in Iraq caused by U.N. sanctions was hunkie dorrie. Obama has the same sort of false consciousness in his deleteriously inane ideas about Iraq policy potential the next couple of years.
Cold, naked facts are that people will take what you have even when you are homeless and without hope. B. Hussein Obama's planks do not offer hope-they deny hope of real progress on alternate energy policy. Energy independence for the United States must occur before reliance upon global oil is broken. Rational political plans to accomplish that need to develop before a new President takes office. Maybe McCain could get such legislation through congress if he choose, yet that's doubtful as the most powerful corporations in the world are largely run by board members with oil company board connections.
Americans have allowed themselves to become totally dependent upon oil and gas for transportation and have sold out their inheritance in the process. Life is easier going downhill until one hits the bottom. The Persian and Iranian Gulf States produce much of the world's oil and have been strategic U.S. interests since the Carter administration-in all that time nothing has changed and it will not in the next five years. Dhahran and Bahrain are still vital oil sources. Sea Island Terminal at Ras Tannurah and Ra's al Ju'aymah (LPG) are still Arabian fossil fuel points, and Iraq has underground potentials capable of keep fossil fuel production costs and sales quantities within reason the next decade or two, until global corporations have thoroughly conquered the U.S. political scene and subverted every aspect of U.S. national energy independence.
Most Americans aren't that bright, in some ways people are like ignorant neanderthals simply seeking to ride the wave of whatever social-economic facts exists without inventing for themselves. I have no problem with everyone having a right to exist without being a genius, yet the naked brutes have no reluctance to make slaves out of everyone-they are checked simply by a balance of forces that may be subtly shifted by corrupt power. I mention this fact simply to reiterate the point that U.S. politics isn't dominated by careful political reasoning but instead by choices of concatenated personal selfishness without political philosophy at all. A majority will support anything amorally that would advantage themselves and their family interests.
Iraq cannot be abandoned within 18 months. Anarchy or terrorism cannot be allowed to return to murder women and children, disrupt Iraqi oil production and create instability in the middle east greater than it presently is. The Iraqi government and it's oil fields must be defended until they are safe. The Persian Gulf is a strategic U.S. national interest and simultaneously a costly involvement that can be keep at arms length only through a progressive movement toward national personal energy independence with as much electricity generated at homes and businesses as possible. Obama's notion that the Iranians. al Qa'eda, the Saudi royal family and its army, the Syrians, Turks and others will spontaneously help Iraq to govern itself peaceably if the U.S. unilaterally withdraws is the most substantial idiocy imaginable in the realm of likely political resolutions of a policy scenario. Chaos would be likely to follow a unilateral U.S. withdrawal and fueld prices might increase to 1000 dollara a barrel of oil if the Saudi fields are set aflame. Al Qa'eda might like to cut off oil supplies from the middle east to the U.S.A. and Europe in order to strengthen Muslim fundamentalist revolution against western Vermontian depravity.
Some people believe the Democratic Party sucks yet still believe that Barrack's butches from the North Eastern United States seek to paradoxically repudiate the last democratic administration to rule the White House and that brought the Lewinsky infamy and the concept of volunteer female student intern mouthpiece training under lawyers to the public attention. A repudiation of the last Clinton administration by democratic supporters and voters for Obama is difficult for Obama to articulate in the Pennsylvania primary. After all why, when the nation ran an incredible budget surplus by the end of the second term of the Clinton's should the unfortunate efforts to gay up the military, socialize national health care and war upon Serbians be renounced as well-when they are probably all Obama planks this time too. Perhaps the only thing the Obama could accomplish as well as Bill Clinton in the oval office would be to review the female (or male perhaps with the Gerry Studds/Tedd Kennedy/Howard Dean democratic plank in his corner) student interns for training below a lawyer.
There may be 20 billion Internet websites and this is just one of them. All people have a right to express their own opinion for others to read if they choose. This isn't a corporate broadcast forced by one of a few channels to millions of ears and minds of illiterate or comic book level literate followers. I think it would be a good idea, even if I only have a few readers and sell just a rare book now and then, for ballots in the future to have a 'none of the above' square for voters to mark in case there just isn't a reasonable choice for President in some particular election. U.S. voters shouldn't be compelled to appear to agree that their is a real choice when there isn't-dissent should be tallied too, so the public can now that those globalist seeking to starve them out of cabin and cut off their electricity and dis-empower their notebook computer, enslave them with a hag or feminize them with a zillion regulations don't really represent public interests, and one's own.

Mitt Romney: The Exo-political Choice of Kolobites?
Is Mitt Romney the exo-political choice by Kolobians for leader of the United States? If extra-terrestrials visit Earth from Kolob when they say 'take us to your leader' will they be asking for one of their own?
The pervasive power of the broadcast media has trained Americans to vote against their interests. The FCC at least ignores public opinion if it goes against giving the right of trans-nationals legal access to buying broadcast networks and newspapers. Coherence of Christian voting majorities, heterosexual majorities, border security, a non-outsourced economic infrastructure, a fair labor market without illegal aliens of millions of dumped Mexican immigrants let in to gut wages for citizen workers are all now considered 'unAmerican' by media advocates of globalism. The founders are suppose to have been symps of transnationals, fagots for cloning, abortion, trans-humanism, a global village, national health care, interminable foreign wars, reliance on foreign fuel for transportation, world-record setting federal debt, incredible trade deficits, a pervasive, omnipresent ethereal broadcast propaganda power owned by trans-national corporations if not oligarchs and so forth. Homos with technology become butch homo political advocates forcing their way upon society-technology is powerful.
It is believed that the United States is an obsolete political concept as an independent nation and that permanent foreign alliances and globalist business hegemony over U.S. politics is natural. National interests and national federal debt elimination are unimportant in comparison to trans-national corporate interests, majority interests are only in supporting existing corporate expansion policies without regard to national democratic interests-voting for the M.B.A. Wall Street consultant extra-terrestrial believing Mormon is possible-as is voting for the other bad candidates besides Edwards, Hunter and Huckabee.

Brigham Young said "Shall I tell you the law of God in regard to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so." Negroes are thought to be the descendants of Cain (that means smoth etymologically).
Some humorists might discern that the ruling class from the Planet Coal-lob would toss those black lumps into the fire where they can do some good warming the room for those with more-mons (many wives) for-themselves. Area 51 is located with Kol-lobing distance from Salt Lake City and greater mormonville and that could be the explanation for the disappearance of the billionaire pilot a few months ago. Ia area 51 the landing strip for extra-terretrials from Kolob?

Clarence Page wrote a piece about Mitt Romney and Mormonism and why the Iowa Huckabee surge in the polls may be in part a result of 'anti-Mormon bias'. Mr. Page points out maladroitly that the founders were for religious toleration and that for voters to not vote for candidates with religious practices anti-pathetic to their own is a form of intolerance and bias or even prejudice.
Clarence Page, a usually good writer on political affairs has blundered in this instance into the snare of political correctness that all religious practices and beliefs are without substance and equivalent in the algebra of politics-they are not. Mr. Page has accepted the wrong political belief that a Christian should vote for a Satanist because it would not has as much meaning as advocating that an American that would not have voted for a communist candidate in the 1950's was biased against communism and that the founders would not have intolerance for people because of their personal social or economic beliefs. There are real and substantial differences in religion, economics and social beliefs that affect what a candidate would do if he were in political office-to say that a candidate sets his religion and social beliefs aside upon taking office and just does the political engineering is b.s.
The founders were for religious tolerance and for keeping the church out of state to the extent that no theocracy would form, yet they did not prefer to be ruled by extremists of any sort and preferred a majority reflecting candidate generally. In the first 184 years of the nations existence no one besides a nominal protestant at least ever got the job of Presidency. It wasn't that the founders just didn't care-they did and so did every generation of American voters since.
Mr. Romney is a hardened trans-nationalist that will continue to support the erosion of in the interests of the people of the United States if elected President. Mr. Romney's extra-terrestrial universal religious beliefs are very unChristian and for Christians would represent the first rule by a non-Christian in the nation's history. For Christians of many sorts that coincides with a period of a decline in the nation's relationship with God, and that could indicate more troubles ahead of Biblical scale.
If elected President Mr. Romney would undoubtedly contribute to the strength of Mormon evangelistic efforts and Mormon wealth in America and abroad, at a time of global questions about religion and society the minority Mormonist practices and beliefs would not help clarify the basic issues to the world. Mr. Romney is the wrong foot to put forward with the indefensible polytheistic character of the cult in the context of global Mohammedanism and its belief in one God. For Mr. Page and many new agers the religious issues is a detached from reality abstract question of no consequence. Mr. Page even compared it to the Shi's-Sunni differences as something to avoid. He believes in error perhaps that there is no social historical basis for that particular animosity and that it is an abstract theologically based argument instead-in error. Dividing American leadership up into a myriad faithless, abominable modes is the wrong way for the nation to go in 2008. A simple faith in God, reflecting a Christian majority with secular work for a humanitarian and intellectually free and progressive populace with secure borders, a balanced budget, optimism about the future, space colonization and personal and public religious tolerance is the way to go. It will take tough love and patience presenting a rational and right Christian ethic for America to move forward with assurance through the world's troubles ahead. The rosy utopia of a global economic false democracy or in fact corporatism will not mature for a number of reasons into a democratic fact that would do anything but repress the U.S.A. and create tyranny abroad.
The code words of political correctness often run rough-shod over meaningfully accurate history of causes and reasons why people have made political choices. The reason why Americans never elected a Catholic President before John F. Kennedy are a case in point of over-simplifying history in order to support a political cause.
The founders of the United States were revolutionaries against big government, over-centralized authority and foreign rule. Not only were they against King George they were to a substantial measure dissidents from the Church of England. They would not support Catholic rule either, for Catholicism had historical roots of association with Imperial rule in Europe that continued in Mexico, Latin America and other colonial areas of the world. Nor until the Mexican revolution did Hapsburg power become finally disassociated from our neighbor to the south. Concerns about a Catholic President's historical association with imperial rule and even the inquisition would not have faded away quickly from the political concerns of enlightened American voters.
The Index was a corollary of the Inquisition that listed people the Catholic Church considered it's enemies. The Index had many of the enlightenment, reformation and renaissances greatest intellectuals and leaders upon it-and the Index was officially in existence until John F. Kennedy was elected in 1960 at which time it was retired quietly centuries after the inquisition ended.
Catholics in then United States had a different role today as Christians and Americans that may merge into even the White House if they can support U.S. democracy and nationalism rather than trans-nationalism that is pervasively corrupting the security of the United States. Only through majority mergers politically speaking with nationally minded protestants and priesthood of believers independent Christians will the United States survive the expanding polytheism and anti-Christian real-politik of much of the globes commercial and communist elites.
The pervasive power of the broadcast media has trained Americans to vote against their interests. The FCC at least ignores public opinion if it goes against giving the right of trans-nationals legal access to buying broadcast networks and newspapers. Coherence of Christian voting majorities, heterosexual majorities, border security, a non-outsourced economic infrastructure, a fair labor market without illegal aliens of millions of dumped Mexican immigrants let in to gut wages for citizen workers are all now considered 'unAmerican' by media advocates of globalism. The founders are suppose to have been symps of transnationals, fagots for cloning, abortion, trans-humanism, a global village, national health care, interminable foreign wars, reliance on foreign fuel for transportation, world-record setting federal debt, incredible trade deficits, a pervasive, omnipresent ethereal broadcast propaganda power owned by trans-national corporations if not oligarchs and so forth. Homos with technology become butch homo political advocates forcing their way upon society-technology is powerful.
It is believed that the United States is an obsolete political concept as an independent nation and that permanent foreign alliances and globalist business hegemony over U.S. politics is natural. National interests and national federal debt elimination are unimportant in comparison to trans-national corporate interests, majority interests are only in supporting existing corporate expansion policies without regard to national democratic interests-voting for the M.B.A. Wall Street consultant extra-terrestrial believing Mormon is possible-as is voting for the other bad candidates besides Edwards, Hunter and Huckabee.
Mormons believe that God lives on the planet 'Kolob' http://nowscape.com/mormon/mormons5.htm
http://nowscape.com/mormon/kolob-defined.htm#the%20first%20creation Mormon astronomers at B.Y.U. believed in 1999 that they located Kolob
http://nowscape.com/mormon/negro.htm Mormon prophets on the inferiority/badness of the negro. There are no Mormon Temples in Africa it is written. Brigham Young said "Shall I tell you the law of God in regard to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so." Negroes are thought to be the descendants of Cain (that means smoth etymologically).
Some humorists might discern that the ruling class from the Planet Coal-lob would toss those black lumps into the fire where they can do some good warming the room for those with more-mons (many wives) for-themselves. Area 51 is located with Kol-lobing distance from Salt Lake City and greater mormonville and that could be the explanation for the disappearance of the billionaire pilot a few months ago. Ia area 51 the landing strip for extra-terretrials from Kolob?

Justice Department Illegal Procedures for Bush's Late Term?
Democracy must be innovative and open, efficient and just, guiding by intelligent and concerned citizens with the gentleness of doves and worldly wisdom of the serpent (e.g. politicians) with their innate, eloquent forked or double-tongued fanciness.
Corporatism has hijacked the American democracy since the end of the cold war against Communism. Corporate M.B.A.'s and Chicago lawyers are taking over the Presidency with the erroneous notion that the big monopolistic 'corporation' of communism that all feudalist empire for themselves trans-national corporations hate is the only alternative to their own corporatist takeover of the world. If one isn't a corporatist then one has to be a communist the wrong-logic goes. Secrecy to actualize hidden corporate agendas for the next years control of world economics is necessary for them, yet a true democracy would thrive on open and honest governing with a broadcast media given over to individual citizen.
I will write a little on the Bush administration below to highlight some of the actual concerns of the criterion of the erosion and repression of democracy in the U.S.A. while the government floods the nation with illegal aliens from Mexico through its corrupt, incompetent border control flooziness.
Corporatists would consider some bio-tech developments such as cloning of animals that glow in the dark from a profit and political point of view rather than as an ethical issues. Corporatist invariably regard all social concerns from a material rather than ethical point of view first. That cloning is wicked and that cloning technologies applied to make people that glow in the dark would not be on the radar screen of concern for corporatists. Corporatists would seek applications for the glow in the dark technology such as injecting terrorists with it (they should include themselves in that list as terrorists upon ethics, democracy, human justice and genome).

One must wonder if President Bush is setting his global agenda through the Justice Department to corrupt and subvert U.S. energy independence, border security and political independence, and if the President seeks to reduce the quality of U.S. education and health, privacy and start up new business innovations, environmental health and legal justice equally applied for all citizens? As the President's opportunity to corrupt the progress and security of the nation dwindles toward the 2008 general election one hopes that the Congress will have some backbone and not let an 'October surprise' Putinize the Presidency.
The Presidents preference for international business commodification of people and ideas, politics and power over democrat tends to shape the way of political administrative goals towards training Americans to be the most simplistic consumer-purchasers of products made cheapest overseas for the highest corporate profits. The public sector is most heavily indebted to pay for corporate purchases of military and natural resources extraction business ventures, jail sentences are extended for U.S. blacks and quality education neglected. Marginal rates of return of public corrections investment are accepted because with private prisons profits involved as well as private contractor prison supply and construction contracts as well as public power supply instead of alternate energy supply it themselves infrastructure through wind, solar and hydrogen fuel cell their is much profit to be made for the trans-national corporations. The administration's idea of alternative energy is to make gas with beans and blame noxious emissions on diet.
Besides supplying heavy cash exports to trans-national corporations for gasoline purchases/oil purchases the nation has been trained to remain personally in debt while polluting or destroying the health of the environment. The Bush administration has let it's interrogation records of suspects for terrorism be destroyed with the knowledge of the C.I.A. Chief Hayden and pervasively surveilled without legal authority for a time U.S. national phone calls out of the nation...the administration has a record of reinforcing corporate and trans-national conquest and hegemony over the U.S. democracy with deleterious consequences.
Authoritarianism is difficult to exorcise from a large modern government and equally troublesome t purge from corporatist broadcast media terror upon citizens ad hoc opportunities for propaganda and hate directed civil rights violations-in the maelstrom of frequencies and the absence of presiding legal authority even the government radio people know they can just get away with an infinity of petty crimes as if they were a colonial power of an us group versus 'them'. The Congress will need more than just become more conservative and indebting the public treasury, the Congress will need to do meaningfully innovative systems analysis about its public spending and investments of available resources and become more effective and including all citizens in education and training for productive and independent lives. Corporations become pervasive, repressive agents of political subversion against free expression and personal independence that isn't structured to kick back everything to corporate profit structures. That repressive and even terroristic trend needs to be reversed and politically combated as much as defenses against Al Qa'eda and various other Muslim terror organizations seeking the destruction of the United States.

Ophrah's Testemonial to Obama's Tongue Dippin Truth-Edwards Climbs Kilimanjaro
Nothing funny is needed everyday when there is politics available. Ophrah Winfree acting as a front man for Barrack Obama at a campaign rally pumped up the crowd with a rousing speech about Obama includin the gem 'he has an ear for eloquence and a tongue dipped in things without varnish and that are truthful'. That makes me wonder what other things he has dipped his tongue in on the campaign trail and if truth is unquestionable if used for dippin? What have the other candidates dipped their tongues in and did they get chips with it?
The campaign trail for the Iowa primary leading to the 2008 Presidential election should have a universal tongue dipping truth test set up to discover which candidate really has the most truthfully dipping tongue and ear that has listened to the Oprah Show. What candidate juggles the best anyway?
On a campaign platform at the bus station in Des Moines could be placed several bowls full of everything from horseradish to cherry pudding. Candidates would need to dip their tongue into each bowl and then choose from a multiple choice menu of what was what. The candidate answering with the most right answers identifying what was in each bowl truthfully could then be said to have 'dipped his tongue in a bowl of truth without varnish.' Varnish incidentally was something Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer painted a fence with long ago in Hannibal Missouri; or on second thought wasn't it whitewash?
If a politician or political supporter claims to speak truth for content turn on the b.s. detector immediately! Each politician can only state meaningful political goals and methods-the claims about linguistics might work for Chomsky but not for politicians generally. Not even Bill Clinton could claim that tongue dippin exclusively of truth characteristic.
The trouble with celebrity product endorsements (politicians as products) is that political candidates with enhanced ratings from celebrity testimonials tend to become products desired by M.B.A.'s and C.E.O.'s of trans-national corporations seeking to undermine national sovereignty.
The Democratic Party has one candidate-John Edwards has a net worth of 9 to 45 million dollars according to some sources made litigating against trans-national corporations starting in life from scratch as a poor Carolina guy from a small town. As President Edwards would not be intimidated by the trans-national corporations that need to be reigned in a bit for the survival of a national democracy. John Edwards climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in 2003.
http://www.ontheissues.org/John_Edwards.htm
Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama are trans-nationally safe and the preferred choices of the globalists. In the Republican Party Ron Paul is the spoiler from Texas set up to drain off any non-trans-national supportvotes in a swale to nowhere. For Republicans Huckabee seems to be the only candidate besides Hunter that might be nationalist and populist a little.

Epistemological Cosmology
Philosophical researches in determinism for me at least lead empirically into support for faith in God and His pre-determinism of the Universe.
C.S. Pierce's trialectical pragmaticism was an interesting hypothetical model for the nominative invention of concepts, yet subjective epistemology isnt simply trialectical in space-time nor entirely a linear function. Modern neurology has investigated and mapped a little bit of the synaptic channels and sequence of that neural network.
Small worlds networks originated with an air force plan to develop a nuclear war survivable command and control network and subsequent history has found the Internet to have a small worlds network structure and nature in general to develop such itself not uncommonly. Language and concept development seems to transcend and particular temporal arrangement of conceptual structure for a number of reasons.
Chomsky's ideas of a universal grammer have been challenged rather well by the Everett's research in South America, and make for interesting reading anyway. It may be useful to consider Wittgenstein's Blue and Brown books for contrast on on the subject of Chomskian versus Everettian linguistic deep structures.
On the general question of determinism versus indeterminism in the physical cosmos represented to empiricists it is worth mentioning its exceedingly high level of determinism from the initial hyperinflaton and the later distribution of galaxies correlating to the initial anisotropies in the surviving preponderance of matter over anti-matter because of a symmetry surplus of matter in CP violation I think to the reduction of the background temperature of the Universe from very very high toward absolute zero as well as it's near isotropic distribution with minor inhomogeneities around the measurable Universe. The Universe moves with inexorable determinism from a lowest state of entropy toward a highest and the distribution of matter in the Universe and its characteristics reflect that determinism.
Quantum uncertainty underlying the Universe is a paradox yet a necessary component of the implicit uncertainty required for change and motion, being and becoming. The uncertainty in this universe may be determined in alternate dimensions however, and virtual particles may reflect the intrusion of alternate dimension particles in all possible worldlines and all possible universes interacting deterministically in this particular Universe. In a multi-dimensional monism the pluralism of alternate Universes and dimensions may like the paintings of Malcom Escher as reciprocals of one function or schema.
Interestingly rational and spiritual human thought seem to be the most potentially indeterminate element of the Universe, and its realizing the nature of The One (such as is God) humanity may at once become most free , undetermined yet pre-determined through the grace of Jesus Christ unto renormalization with the Author of all that is.
P.F. Strawson and W.V.O. Quine wrote a few good books on logic and linguistic philosophy, yet Schopenhauer's ideas that go a little beyond Kant's epistemology in finding that human cognition must interpret sense data and does add something to it to make it appear as it does is a useful way to integrate ideas of Plotinus about the One, about appearances to human perceptions, Sartre's ideas about existential epistemology and the reef of solipsism phenomenalities that have concerned philosophers perennial about the subjective nature of human experience in a theory of knowledge.

Romney, Bias and Mormon Flummery
Clarence Page wrote a piece about Mitt Romney and Mormonism and why the Iowa Huckabee surge in the polls may be in part a result of 'anti-Mormon bias'. Mr. Page points out maladroitly that the founders were for religious toleration and that for voters to not vote for candidates with religious practices anti-pathetic to their own is a form of intolerance and bias or even prejudice.
Clarence Page, a usually good writer on political affairs has blundered in this instance into the snare of political correctness that all religious practices and beliefs are without substance and equivalent in the algebra of politics-they are not. Mr. Page has accepted the wrong political belief that a Christian should vote for a Satanist because it would not has as much meaning as advocating that an American that would not have voted for a communist candidate in the 1950's was biased against communism and that the founders would not have intolerance for people because of their personal social or economic beliefs. There are real and substantial differences in religion, economics and social beliefs that affect what a candidate would do if he were in political office-to say that a candidate sets his religion and social beliefs aside upon taking office and just does the political engineering is b.s.
The founders were for religious tolerance and for keeping the church out of state to the extent that no theocracy would form, yet they did not prefer to be ruled by extremists of any sort and preferred a majority reflecting candidate generally. In the first 184 years of the nations existence no one besides a nominal protestant at least ever got the job of Presidency. It wasn't that the founders just didn't care-they did and so did every generation of American voters since.
Mr. Romney is a hardened trans-nationalist that will continue to support the erosion of in the interests of the people of the United States if elected President. Mr. Romney's extra-terrestrial universal religious beliefs are very unChristian and for Christians would represent the first rule by a non-Christian in the nation's history. For Christians of many sorts that coincides with a period of a decline in the nation's relationship with God, and that could indicate more troubles ahead of Biblical scale.
If elected President Mr. Romney would undoubtedly contribute to the strength of Mormon evangelistic efforts and Mormon wealth in America and abroad, at a time of global questions about religion and society the minority Mormonist practices and beliefs would not help clarify the basic issues to the world. Mr. Romney is the wrong foot to put forward with the indefensible polytheistic character of the cult in the context of global Mohammedanism and its belief in one God. For Mr. Page and many new agers the religious issues is a detached from reality abstract question of no consequence. Mr. Page even compared it to the Shi's-Sunni differences as something to avoid. He believes in error perhaps that there is no social historical basis for that particular animosity and that it is an abstract theologically based argument instead-in error. Dividing American leadership up into a myriad faithless, abominable modes is the wrong way for the nation to go in 2008. A simple faith in God, reflecting a Christian majority with secular work for a humanitarian and intellectually free and progressive populace with secure borders, a balanced budget, optimism about the future, space colonization and personal and public religious tolerance is the way to go. It will take tough love and patience presenting a rational and right Christian ethic for America to move forward with assurance through the world's troubles ahead. The rosy utopia of a global economic false democracy or in fact corporatism will not mature for a number of reasons into a democratic fact that would do anything but repress the U.S.A. and create tyranny abroad.
The code words of political correctness often run rough-shod over meaningfully accurate history of causes and reasons why people have made political choices. The reason why Americans never elected a Catholic President before John F. Kennedy are a case in point of over-simplifying history in order to support a political cause.
The founders of the United States were revolutionaries against big government, over-centralized authority and foreign rule. Not only were they against King George they were to a substantial measure dissidents from the Church of England. They would not support Catholic rule either, for Catholicism had historical roots of association with Imperial rule in Europe that continued in Mexico, Latin America and other colonial areas of the world. Nor until the Mexican revolution did Hapsburg power become finally disassociated from our neighbor to the south. Concerns about a Catholic President's historical association with imperial rule and even the inquisition would not have faded away quickly from the political concerns of enlightened American voters.
The Index was a corollary of the Inquisition that listed people the Catholic Church considered it's enemies. The Index had many of the enlightenment, reformation and renaissances greatest intellectuals and leaders upon it-and the Index was officially in existence until John F. Kennedy was elected in 1960 at which time it was retired quietly centuries after the inquisition ended.
Catholics in then United States had a different role today as Christians and Americans that may merge into even the White House if they can support U.S. democracy and nationalism rather than trans-nationalism that is pervasively corrupting the security of the United States. Only through majority mergers politically speaking with nationally minded protestants and priesthood of believers independent Christians will the United States survive the expanding polytheism and anti-Christian real-politik of much of the globes commercial and communist elites.
Clarence Page, a usually good writer on political affairs has blundered in this instance into the snare of political correctness that all religious practices and beliefs are without substance and equivalent in the algebra of politics-they are not. Mr. Page has accepted the wrong political belief that a Christian should vote for a Satanist because it would not has as much meaning as advocating that an American that would not have voted for a communist candidate in the 1950's was biased against communism and that the founders would not have intolerance for people because of their personal social or economic beliefs. There are real and substantial differences in religion, economics and social beliefs that affect what a candidate would do if he were in political office-to say that a candidate sets his religion and social beliefs aside upon taking office and just does the political engineering is b.s.
The founders were for religious tolerance and for keeping the church out of state to the extent that no theocracy would form, yet they did not prefer to be ruled by extremists of any sort and preferred a majority reflecting candidate generally. In the first 184 years of the nations existence no one besides a nominal protestant at least ever got the job of Presidency. It wasn't that the founders just didn't care-they did and so did every generation of American voters since.
Mr. Romney is a hardened trans-nationalist that will continue to support the erosion of in the interests of the people of the United States if elected President. Mr. Romney's extra-terrestrial universal religious beliefs are very unChristian and for Christians would represent the first rule by a non-Christian in the nation's history.

Homos Choose Atheism to Avoid Conviction of Sin?
Denial of sin and denial of God are two common points of homosexual militants.
Is homo 'marriage' an example of macro-social immune system attack?
One must wonder if homo 'marriage' efforts in the various states isn't a sort of social immunology attack. Homosexuality unfortunately may be a genetic defect that in the modern world may not be curable yet may be correctable enough to allow homos to lead normal lives.
It would be a substantive social error to let the social disease destroy society or become a protracted major influence upon degradation of the health of the social structure. Historically the decline and fall of civilizations may be marked by the rise in decadent homosexual lifestyles in society.
Society of course has unnumerable ways of over-reacting to social issues of concern, and generally in finding ways to maladroitly correct social concerns and that probably will not change.
Homosexuality is plainly a grave sin in a Biblical moral context, yet the effect upon society of homosexual corruption of meanings of moral and political issues in order to provide camoflage in some sort of social struture made for heterosexuals are some of the reasons why societies decline, and why nature leads to the downfall of perverse societies perhaps.
Choosing the atheist path or seeking to corrupt the truth of the Bible about the doom of homosexuals and other unrepentent sinners will not be of help to the lost on the day of judgment. One hopes that at least a few of the lost homos struggling in turmoil or confusion in-the-world will find their way to God through the Son Jesus Christ who shed His blood for the remission of the sin of those of faith.
Even the context of philosophy is corrupted by the life-long desire of some homosexuals to move society toward a more homo-affinity structure. Homosexuality and issues pertaining to it's political prosyletation aren't hardly worth a damn philosophically speaking.

Muhammadans Rage Against the Teddy Bear Naming
Raging Muslims demanded death for naming a teddy bear Muhammad in the Sudan recently. An innocent British school marm let a student name the stuffed animal after himself-Muhammad receiving a conviction, jail sentence and deportation order. Angry Sudanese protested demanding a death sentence providing evidence that if it is a lunatic fringe that is radical in Muhammadanism it is a lunatic fringe lurking just below the surface as a consequence of Muhammedan indoctrination.
http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=3940765&page=1
The Sudan probably doesn't even have many bears, and giving a teddy bear probably teaches wrong ecological conservation values making them 'bear huggers'. Traditional Muslim caining for naming anything Muhammed- a blaspheming, might have been less bad. Fortunately the teacher may get out of Sudan alive perhaps to value the life experience of seriously underestimating the nature of Muhammadism. Luckily she didn;t give the kids anything like Sherrie Lewis' 'Lambchops' and said it was 'is-lamb', the Lamb of God or anything like that.. Muhammedans can get livid with rage about misunderstanding what is-lamb means as the perfect example of submission to the will of God.
"There may be moderate Muslims, but Islam itself is not moderate. There is no difference between Islam and Islamic fundamentalism. At most there is a difference of degree but not of kind."-Ibn Warraq, executive director of the Institute for the Secularization of Islamic Society
http://nowscape.com/islam/islam.htm
Muhammad was the son of the keeper of pagan statues at the Kabba of Mecca. Muhammad improved upon his father's business inventing a synthetic unified Christian-Judaic religion tailor made for war. Mohammed's scholarship was bad yet the illiterate warriors readily accepted his creed of war in monotheistic dress. The smell of empires ripe for the plucking was on the wind...
Muhammadanism at its high tide invading Europe from the South, east and west had plundered its way across North Africa, invaded Sicily, attacked Rome, sent a fleet to assault Constantinople, occupied Spain in a bloody war lasting centuries with the costly reconquista continuing until the last of the Moors were sent back across the Straits of Gibraltar in 1492 and set upon a centuries long attack upon the Byzantine civilization. The entire Muhammadan conquest was done at the point of the sword with entire peoples ruthlessly subjugated and alternative multi-cultural values deleted. In the zone of war or Dar al Harb the Muhammadan crusades to conquer the free world was prosecuted without mercy upon hapless disorganized peoples until an anti-crusading crusade of European reaction developed to fight the tide of Muhammadan doom. Has the fundamental warrior syncretism of the Umma/Ummayad Empire changed in the stagnant dark ages of the post-Abbasid empire collapse? May any non-Jihhadist Muhammadan be anything more than a lapsed Muhammadan interested more in worldliness than suicide bombing his or herself back t perennial hell and a status lower than worms for eons...the dichotomy of Dar al harb and Dar al Islam is an implicit structural element of the globalist world-view expressed today in in transnational Arab oil policies and in their court and fossil fuel sycophants denying global warming, environmental mass extinctions and the peril of federal deficit spending for western civilization.
"Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection."-quote from the Koran K 9:029 Set 38, Count 101
Muhammadanism functions in an intelligence vacuum that well serves expansion amidst pagan and third world peoples. It disregards the truth of Jesus Christ, the complex theological concepts of the nature of God and triune beingness in One to market and proselytize the masses with just God for-himself. While there is just one God, the protocol of God is plural comparable to the Universe itself-while there is one Universe there are many things in it. God emanates reality for-others, and Jesus Christ is His way to return humanity unto Himself, while the Spirit of God is the divine essence leading humanity through the vicissitudes of life and turns of pre-determinism. The blind push of the son of the keeper of the many religions centered at Mecca and the Kaba named Muhammad was and is a political power conquest oriented program developed with malinterpretations of Christianity and of Judaism. It is worth comprehending the faults in Muhammad's syncretism in order to understand its strengths and discover how it may be a tool to lead many of the people of the world through bringing them unto God through Jesus Christ as their personal savior.
Muhammadanism hasn't a developed notion of sin and believes humanity may relate directly to God. God is perfect while humanity is fallen. The saving grace of Jesus Christ is the sole way to bridge the gap separating man and God. The divine economy has a universal debt for humanity that only Jesus Christ could pay for; Muhammedism fails to get beyond the basics of montheistic concepts, although in his synthetic religion developed in the decadent era of the Byzantine civilization and vacuum of power after the collapse of the western Roman Empire and Gothic invasions of North Africa the opportunistic Muhammadist expansion served to stimulate the emergence of Europe from the dark ages through its need to defend against the scimitar and Damascus steel.

'164 Jihad verses in the Koran'
It may be that Muhammed was the false prophet mentioned in Biblical eschatology, or not...there may be another. It is likely that Muhammedism was in some way part of God's plan, perhaps as a comparison of the Christian and ancient Greek cultures
Prehistoric Greek culture was much like that of the balance of the land north of the Europus; savage. It was only though millennia that settlements allowed the constructions of societies to develop that bring more intense cultural development and social order. The Minoan culture was the first to arrive in Greece and bring a written language and culture concatenated from the ancient civilizations of the south. The Minoan cultures demise was sudden as it's home islands were obliterated except for that of Crete in a Krakatoa like explosion circa 1500 B.C. A local civilization followed-that of Agamemnon and Trojan legends, yet mankind was still led by oppressive royal societies as its best form of governance except in Ur, circa 2000 B.C. God called Abraham out of Babylon and into the desert and Israel in a relationship destined to bring about the major change in human history-a government by a transcendent God of love and respect for mankind by one another, though human original sin would make them fall short of achieving perfection even of democracy.
Classical Greece embodied the contradictions of mankind's relations with itself. A cluster of city states each with a different form of government developed bring them to war incessantly with each other. Athen's and its limited franchise democracy one out and had a league of Delos over-taxing the resources of the other members to pay for things like building the Parthenon. Sparta declared war on Athens after its completion and began the end of classical Greece.
Sparta was the worst of Greek government development with a homosexual butch elite warrior caste annihilating any social order besides war and training for war. Sparta created nothing lasting for posterity except some military victories of dubious necessity. Greek, known by Greeks as Hellas, in Sparta provide slaves named helots to serve of interest of the arrested social order of warriors. It would take the Roman Republic to actualize the society unifying Athenian and Spartan government values to perfect the idea of a Republic.
Servility and savagery are each opposed to democratic individualism...
Tacitas wrote of German society in the first century...
"25. The rest of their slaves have not, like ours, particular employments in the family allotted them. Each is the master of a habitation and household of his own. The lord requires from him a certain quantity of grain, cattle or cloth, as from a tenant; and so far only the subjection of the slave extends.21 Hid domestic offices are performed by his own wife and children. It is usual to scourge a slave, or punish him with chains or hard labor. They are sometimes killed by their masters; not through severity of chastisement, but in the heat of passion, like an enemy; with this difference, that it is done with impunity.22 Freedmen are little superior to slaves; seldom filling any important office in the family; never in the state, except in those tribes which are under regal government.23 There, they rise above the free-born, and even the nobles: in the rest, the subordinate condition of the freedmen is a proof of freedom." http://www.unrv.com/tacitus/tacitusgermania.php
European society needed to be lifted out of it's savage paganism over the next millennium...Muhammadan cultureswas a raging lion seeking to devour setting it's will for predation to Europe.
Decadent imperialism followed the Roman Republic, yet Christian culture flourished to provide a unity to stand against the invasions of the Umayyad Empire under the false prophet Muhammad. Pope Gregory led a defense against the Umayyad crusades of invasion of Europe that reached Rome, France and the Aegean Islands. Christianity was the motivating cultural element that led Europe out of the pagan re-civilized social structures and into first the imperial structure and then with the reformation and the Dewitt Brothers democratic revolution in Holland into the world's first general government for the masses movement in the form of democracy. While the papacy had become corrupted by worldliness fr a time, it moved Martin Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Knox and others to form independent and general literacy so people could read the Bible in their own language for themselves...God's teleos had drawn mankind out of a planet of the apes and into one moving to democratic individualism.
Christian movement reflected in ensuing mirrored democratic movements against imperial rule from Rome. Christianity was the motive for invention of the printing press by Gutenberg in 1440.
Christianity is a living culture founded upon a transcendent faith in Jesus Christ and the grace of God; ancient Greek culture is dead. Ancient Greek culture, or cultures more accurately are one of the great research subjects of archeology however beginning more than 25,000 years ago with excavations done at the Francthi cave in the neolithic period of hunters moving through the ages to farmers and the emergence of Minoan culture centered at the island of Thera/Santorini before its end with the apocalypse of volcanism giving rise to the legends of Atlantis.
Jesus Christ ended the pagan era of humanity substituting atoning and renewing spiritual faith in the Absolute post-temporal creator of temporality and much more. The Christian culture began with the physical appearance of Jesus Christ on Earth with His birth in Bethlehem circa October, 3 B.C. The laws of God were then written on the hearts and minds of believers as the prophet Jeremiah had related they would be centuries before. Christian culture brought the end of animal sacrifice and misguided beliefs in inanimate objects as gods. The spiritual draft of Jesus Christ was the central cohering element in the rise of western Europe to civilization. From the remarkable writings of the 1st century apostle Paul 4th/5th century Augustine to the 15th century physicist Isaac Newton and contemporary Christians the Christian culture is a remarkable motivating force in human creativity and ingenuity.
Ancient Greek cultures after the end of the neolithic period were known as bronze age cultures. They developed in mainland Greece (Minoan), Turkey (Anatolian) and in some Aegean Sea islands (Cycladic). A transitional culture developed between the late neolithic and bronze ages called today the Korakou culture with simple mostly non-metallic artifacts extent. It has red colors and good pottery and was a decent, modest culture in the beautiful land. The following Minoan culture named for King Minos was a brilliant early culture giving rise to the first European alphabetic scripts discovered...linear A. The following Mycenaean culture was the legendary culture of King Agamemnon and later the heroic age written of at its end by the Homeric poets circa 1100 B.C.
The war with Troy and intercultural conflict helped bring the end of Mycenaean culture. Aeolian, Ionians and Dorian tribes people invaded the weakened culture flowing over the borders of the culture creating an age of darkness lasting nearly four centuries until reformation of an archaic post-Mycenaean civilization in Attica around the year 750 B.C. The city state of Athens would produce some of the greatest creative minds of ancient world history before the Christian era...Parmenides, Heraclitus., Protagoras, Anaximander, Alexander, Sappho, Euripedes, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Alexander the Great etc. With the appearance of the apostle to the gentiles Paul and his oratory at Athens describing the unknown God to the Athenians at the Agora through which Socrates had once walked and talked with his fellow philosophers the end of the decadent and pagan era of Greece after the end of the golden age of 5th and 4th century Athens began. The Christian culture of which Paul bespoke overcame the dominant Roman civilization transforming its natural corruption and downward plunge into a faith that would motivate the Emperor Constantine to refound a Greek Byzantine culture on the Dardanelles bridging the old world and new; bring lands north and south of the Mediterranean into one fold that would survive the collapse of the Western Roman Empire. Christianity became the genius of a transcendent universal spirit moving the people of the world into a teleos of God, the end of which cannot be presently known. More than 2000 years old already Christian culture may reach the stars, for the world may pass away but the words of Jesus Christ will last forever. way to get some of the pagans close enough to a Christian way of thinking about God that some might be able to make the leap of faith into belief in Jesus Christ and salvation unto eternal life instead of eternal death.

Ancient Greek culture, or cultures more accurately are one of the great research subjects of archeology however beginning more than 25,000 years ago with excavations done at the Francthi cave in the neolithic period of hunters moving through the ages to farmers and the emergence of Minoan culture centered at the island of Thera/Santorini before its end with the apocalypse of volcanism giving rise to the legends of Atlantis.
Jesus Christ ended the pagan era of humanity substituting atoning and renewing spiritual faith in the Absolute post-temporal creator of temporality and much more. The Christian culture began with the physical appearance of Jesus Christ on Earth with His birth in Bethlehem circa October, 3 B.C. The laws of God were then written on the hearts and minds of believers as the prophet Jeremiah had related they would be centuries before. Christian culture brought the end of animal sacrifice and misguided beliefs in inanimate objects as gods. The spiritual draft of Jesus Christ was the central cohering element in the rise of western Europe to civilization. From the remarkable writings of the 1st century apostle Paul 4th/5th century Augustine to the 15th century physicist Isaac Newton and contemporary Christians the Christian culture is a remarkable motivating force in human creativity and ingenuity.
Ancient Greek cultures after the end of the neolithic period were known as bronze age cultures. They developed in mainland Greece (Minoan), Turkey (Anatolian) and in some Aegean Sea islands (Cycladic). A transitional culture developed between the late neolithic and bronze ages called today the Korakou culture with simple mostly non-metallic artifacts extent. It has red colors and good pottery and was a decent, modest culture in the beautiful land. The following Minoan culture named for King Minos was a brilliant early culture giving rise to the first European alphabetic scripts discovered...linear A. The following Mycenaean culture was the legendary culture of King Agamemnon and later the heroic age written of at its end by the Homeric poets circa 1100 B.C.
The war with Troy and intercultural conflict helped bring the end of Mycenaean culture. Aeolian, Ionians and Dorian tribes people invaded the weakened culture flowing over the borders of the culture creating an age of darkness lasting nearly four centuries until reformation of an archaic post-Mycenaean civilization in Attica around the year 750 B.C. The city state of Athens would produce some of the greatest creative minds of ancient world history before the Christian era...Parmenides, Heraclitus., Protagoras, Anaximander, Alexander, Sappho, Euripedes, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Alexander the Great etc. With the appearance of the apostle to the gentiles Paul and his oratory at Athens describing the unknown God to the Athenians at the Agora through which Socrates had once walked and talked with his fellow philosophers the end of the decadent and pagan era of Greece after the end of the golden age of 5th and 4th century Athens began. The Christian culture of which Paul bespoke overcame the dominant Roman civilization transforming its natural corruption and downward plunge into a faith that would motivate the Emperor Constantine to refound a Greek Byzantine culture on the Dardanelles bridging the old world and new; bring lands north and south of the Mediterranean into one fold that would survive the collapse of the Western Roman Empire. Christianity became the genius of a transcendent universal spirit moving the people of the world into a teleos of God, the end of which cannot be presently known. More than 2000 years old already Christian culture may reach the stars, for the world may pass away but the words of Jesus Christ will last forever. way to get some of the pagans close enough to a Christian way of thinking about God that some might be able to make the leap of faith into belief in Jesus Christ and salvation unto eternal life instead of eternal death.

U.S. Inflation , Housing Slump and Trans-national Corporatism
Fifty-year Kondratieff wave cycle modeling should place America at the edge of a depression-yet it could be wrong for many reasons including the trans-national transition of the American economy perhaps forestalling the K wave in the U.S.A. and expanding it to the global perhaps in a 75 year criterion...who can say. Generational change and housing lifespans and many other factors go into the supply and demand for housing. What America needs is good concrete dome housing that have an effective r value of 100 and cost approximately sixty dollars per square (maybe it should be round) foot.
http://www.kwaves.com/kond_overview.htm
The housing construction industry is historically associated with the well being of the economy. When the housing market recedes recession follows. The assumptions about historic roles of housing construction in the economy like the role of low inflation rates may be anachronistic in the shaping adverse world order of trans-nationalism.

http://www.financialsense.com/fsu/editorials/jain/2006/1113.html another boom-bust theory
Can trans-national corporatists just fiddle with the U.S. economy in relation to election cycles in order to maximize profits and corporatist power? Why doesn't WalMart sell solar panels and wind driven electrical power generators or the federal government build monolithic concrete dome homes on military bases?
Foreign investment in the U.S. mortgage market is large, it went from $2.763 trillion in 1992 to $8.144 trillion in 2001. With the dollar becoming shakier and investment elsewhere such as China appearing attractive foreign investors in the U.S. mortgages may be uncertain about continuing the increase. With so many foreign interests involved in America's economic infrastructure it is hard to say how much the next administration could do even if it was willing to change either housing or transportation infrastructure much. Basically no one can expect a serious rectification of macro-economic interdiction procedures from federal leadership.
Between 1997 and 2001 foreign held U.S. equities increased from 1.513 to $2.857 trillion. In recent years foreign investment in the U.S.A. has increased. Trans-nationalism is taking over U.S. political self-determination by influence. Oil profits have allowed Citygroup and other U.S. firms to be purchased by Arab oil interests. The U.S. political leaderships would not change the way 5.5 million homes are built in the country in good years with support for better lot design and zoning to support it nor preference for home power-production or concrete domes for heating-cooling efficiency and longevity-nothing that would make the U.S.A. a safer, better more prosperous nation. Foreign investors have 24% of the total investment in equity in income producing properties in the U.S.A.
Direct foreign in the U.S.A. reached its highest level in history of 335 billion in the year 2000 during President Clinton's final year in office. Though the trend was downward after the 2001 incident it has returned to the increase with 161 billion invested in 2006. Foreign takeover of U.S. businesses is another consequence of trans-national policies by the administration and congress that have accelerated outsourcing of jobs to maximize not American but foreign investors and interests. The cheaper U.S. dollar allows increased foreign purchases of discounted American businesses and properties.
Housing technology and demographic facts could reduce the need to rely on housing expansion at all if environmentalism were more naturally included in the personal dwelling concept. Larger home lots with better landscaping and a small, more efficient and longer lasting home such as a monolithic dome could reduce this major element of the economy to a lower level freeing up more personal capital savings for investment in personal production. Federal unimaginativeness has encouraged over-reliance on rectilinear stick-frame dwellings with minimal green space. The federal government also of course fails to support active personal transportation modification to non-fossil fuel power supply to the nations detriment. Economic cycle can be altered with timely, incremental public sector transitions to new technology infrastructures.
Economic management in one nation has implicitly different assumptions and challenges than in the trans-national or global business paradigm in which economic management entails so far as the United States goes discounting local or regional international economic slumps so well as the U.S. economy is good enough to return trans-nationalists to office. Trans-national corporatist management paradigms may use low inflation goals as a lever to undermine the national economy. It may be a subversive trend because of what is done to accomplish the low inflation rates in the U.S.A., while in China the yuan is over-valued yet the Chinese economy is thriving albeit with pollution and other external costs.
Low inflation and low unemployment rates in America are accomplished not the old fashioned way with honest work, a balanced budget and innovation and intelligent economic management but through the Enron model of transnational ponzi stoked by trade agreements to make it easier for trans-national corporations to relocate and exploit cheap labor, floods of millions of cheap laborers into the U.S.A. and trillions of dollars of cheap imported goods for domestic consumption. The low inflation rate does keep the prices low and products affordable for necessary consumer items yet is also financed with vast federal debt and a consumer spending and no savings policy.
While Americans can afford to live the economy is basically ill-founded and building up foreign rivals in the long range from oil purchases from OPEC to capital investment in new Chinese factories and infrastructure and so forth. In the United States wealthy foreign corporations can purchase housing, energy and mortgage corporations as well as real estate with higher valued currencies while Americans drift toward homelessness and insolvency. The ill-health of American economic management since the 1980's can be measured by the decreasing percentage of Americans that speak English as an internal proletariat from Mexico floods in as Chinese partners to keep the rate of inflation down and trans-nationalism roaring ahead. Sure inflation or higher prices on everything is bad and with the end of the Republican administration in January 2009 it may be a necessary follow up to 100 dollar per barrel oil prices and other 'hidden' inflation economic techniques designed to gouge and degrade U.S. consumers and build trans-national and foreign interests. President Ronald Regan's use of short term Keynesian hybrid supply side economics may have been justified but it transformed into a lever to enrich the richest and outsource the U.S. economic health.
Isolationism and inflation are bad extremes of course, yet so is the rabid transnationalizing
mindless dronary that cares not a whit about prioritizing U.S. intelligence in macro-economic management policy. The United States should be a leading conservationist, energy production, environmental health increase and security role model for the world to follow rather than an amorphous trans-national siphoner of profits for select trans-national corporations. Some large corporate M.B.A. personnel may be simply pimps regarding national human interests looking for just cheap profits and undeserving of trust by the gullible citizens of the United States. The housing industry driven by cheap labor much of which is illegal needs honest money to purchase it and finance it's increase at some point. With the financial related sector of the nation's economy far too high for health it becomes somewhat difficult perhaps to find the rare honest workers to pay the sophisticates not creating anything materially the high prices they need to keep Wall-Street going and able to sell out to Dubai. Heck, it's only oil anyway and goes up in smoke.
Trans-national corporations may be a form of robust ad hoc collectives crushing domestic political opposition in order to increase their own profit naturally enough. Politicians in the United States should be more patriotic and seek to enrich all of the people of the United States, revitalize the environment, secure a no illegal alien ingress fact and balance the federal budget. While trans-national corporations will take care of themselves the federal government should look after the interests of the people of the U.S.A. not through socialism or the opposite of fealty to trans-national corporatism but within a rational realism that does not view Americans as replaceable and downgradable assets or human capital. The nation needs a sound immigration policy of just 350,000 annually from all sources and with a just and unbiased representative selection of the global demographics. They should all be on a course to citizenship over seven years, be given free English language instruction and leave if they choose not to become Americans after seven years.

Wave Standard Dreams
Dream waves strike the shore adding memories
ideas and visions in time that rent
hope apart and for itself together with each place
walked through the forests and nights
when passages in particular left the sounds behind
like classes of social dreams arranged together
the public sees in it's objects pluses or minuses
proposed from M.B.A.s to allocate and distribute four four in C sharp
like the pointillist city put together by my friend the beautiful poet
struck down in her prime by mal-wear
these wonderful stanzas strolled alone and were carried over the sands
in winds of the evening breeze with oceanness
the sound was a roaring eternity that lasted through all the morrows
though they curled in and broke myriad maths into the landshore currents
so where is she now one wonders
No one cares about the blank verses and standard paragraphs
presumed by prose to launch a thousand lines advancing as rhymes
swift and determined so much so that they have formed
images of a burning hot sun in the desert sky
with millions of vultures and oil pumps, skeletons and S.U.V.s
black toxic smoke and choking sands at 100 dollars a barrel
to pollute the one blue atmosphere
something like a dream that changes it's moods with colors
blushing sunrises orchestrated by a Chopin attacking the horizontal keyboard
fading into the beginning of solid color work
it becomes unnoticed until the fall rays light more vividly an Earth
So one cares about savings dreams and metaphors
flying away from nightfall and sin
away from the infinite worldliness that mumbled meaninglessness
urging for the angels to be released unto them
though the angels were traveling incognito
neat the city was racked up though there were at least two or three good people
the dreams turn this way and that while the eagle flies
beyond comedy shows and writers on strike
past real construction without song
no pomp for the peace envisioned
mountains unclimbed, borders unprotected and budgets unbalanced
who would ever have dreampt that God preexists dreams before thinking
somethings ashore and somethings offshore, some for now and some for later
ideas that are structured like material bridging through time to become
something like another poem to provide three-dimensional and more with colors
she could write, that beach, those waves that easily reach the highest mark gently surging.
-Gary C. Gibson 2007

Revisions of Judgment Day
Physicists have written that a quantum phase transition could make the Universe disappear any second as improbable as that seems. For the Creator the physics of this Universe must be transparent and wholly malleable such as modeling clay for a sculptor. Forward, backward in time, cut and pasted sections of space-time and interesting collages of creation juxtaposed to present more just and aesthetic constructions to benefit not only humanity but to resound in the harmonics of the good for-itself-who can say what God has in mind for space-time right now?
What day can be said to be the day of doom-that day was the time original sin separated mankind from God. The day of salvation occurs when one accepts Jesus Christ as their personal savior unto eternal life. Days in life cross between times in the shadow of the sun as the Earth faces away...so how many times will the Earth face away before God puts and end to the world...ten times, one-thousand, four-hundred thousand and ninety-six? It isn't likely that God is counting intervals that way especially as God is eternal or even beyond time. The day for any individual is simply being alive. One must ask will doomsday occur in one's lifetime and set aside the fact that all the important issues of eternal life and destiny with God or without occur for-oneself with complete certainty. The doomsday scenario's are a sort of bonus redundant possibility that could either bring one to eternal life without physical death or bring and end to one's life as regular destiny right then. Death is never more than a breath away for everyone of course-the entire universe could experience an unlikely quantum phase transition and wink out of existence immediately yet it hasn't so far as far as I know unless it did and God 'replugged' it back in too quick to notice. I unplugged an electric sander accidentally doing some work and had to plug it back in again and stop the sanding. Humanity hasn't yet developed the ability to unplug the Universe for-themselves.
Harold Camping has predicted the second coming of Jesus Christ for October 20th, 2011, and others vomit at the concept that anyone can know the mind of God or accurately predict the day. Well, there are bioethical and utilitarian ethical issues to examine today. Every day for the unsaved is a day of doom that can be changed only when they get into a right and saving relationship with Jesus Christ. I will write a little following about the criterion of utilitarianism and it's effects on how society is being influenced in its ethical decision making generally on issues from abortion to transhumanism, transnationalism and pharmaceutical product development. Many of these things 'doom' society toward an end of a healthy and prosperous, secure United States as greed gets the best of reason, philosophy and faith too much...
Value theory or axiology would entail utilitarianist approaches toward structuralisms of any ethical paradigm, template or 'principles' for determining right and wrong, permissibility and so on for applications purposes. Unfortunately value theory in-the-world today would largely be inertially determined in accordance with other macro-social facticities such as social organization-utilitarianism then would become a sycophantic ethical kiss up device for consumerism and corporatism. The greatest good for the greatest number would be transformed into the greatest profit for the most powerful shareholders.
There are a number of factors and actors that corrupt capitalism today, and in the corruption of capitalism whereby a pure individualistic free enterprise marketplace does not exist because of established collectivist and power oriented corruptions of the principles of capitalism the purchase of expert ethical opinions for wealthy and flim flam biomedical corporations along with tort deform to release transnational corporations from large civil damages for creating mass social negative alterity is a fact.
Because people define morality and ethics themselves unless they can find a natural law or a divine command theory, they may egress ethical values farther and farther toward the edge of social dissolution in pursuit of the profits gained by selling cures to individual problems that compile destruction for the human race as a whole. The value principle of exploiting the most unrepresented or least able to defend elements of society such as unborn children in the womb is also a time proven principle.
The principle of exploiting the weak or politically underrepresented works for the powerful. It applies even in environmental extraction industry exploitation for profits of transnational corporations at the cost of national and global interests. The value theory contents that provide the criterion in which ethical theories and principles are selected and applied is subject to the global control of corruption in high places determined inertially to exert it's own proprietary interests and that does not include undominated or unsubdued change socially.
In the United States the 2008 Presidential race is a facade of candidates without a nationalist amongst them except for Ron Paul maybe but probably not. As a Texas congressman he must be sold out right and left to transnational oil and environmental exploitation. The Unite States in pursuit of trans-national oil profits is selling out its national independence instead of transitioning with a purpose right away to independent electrical production at home for the power of electric cars. Electric cars are the sole practical way presently to liberate the nation from the self-destructive binge of fossil fuel consumption that transfers American wealth to the Muslim world. Yet not even Wal-mart has the ability to sell 1000 watt wind power generators for 300 dollars because of the corporatist value principle loyalty to oil and American dependence on trans-national power suppliers. Bioethics also tend to follow the will of the profit seekers except where two heads are grown where only one is wanted and so forth-the most extreme cases. Bioethics are found today within the value theory of corporatism or atheist collectivism rather than in utilitarianism. Utilitarianism has several problems a significant one being the meaningful paradigm for determination of what the good is.

What is the State of the Former Soviet Union?
Examining Russia political conditions for fascist drifts in real policy an practice must begin with Mr. Putin's party United Russia. United Russia is Mr. Putin's party and is conservative and centrist keeping a meaningfully close grip on political power. It controls the broadcast media to a certain extent, yet in America the FCC allocates the broadcast media mainly to trans-national corporate high bidders and the people are shut out. Russia's other three main political parties are excluded from control, yet the Duma still has a diversity of opinions including the communist party.Russia has experienced about as many casualties from terrorism during Mr. Putin's term of office as America with Mr. Bush, and their political opinions and roles don't seem that much different without being gone from official power after elections in 2008.

United Russia had 305 seats out of 450 in the Duma in 2005 and had a plain majority therefore. They do not seem to be like a regular fascist party at all, but more like a pragmatic and sober group of conservatives seeking to keep something of Russia together in the transition chaos of the post-cold war fall of communism. American perspectives on world politics are often unrealistic and therefor expensive and ineffective. A good example of that was the completely incompetent Bush administration unpreparedness for occupying and rebuilding post-war Iraq. Their cost estimates were wildly wrong.
The group of Muslim nations meeting in Annapolis tonight to discuss the problem of Iran and what to do about those troublesome Shi'a uphill may find some support from the Bush administration's interest in shoring up Sunni oil producing states and terrorist organizations that might attack Israel and somehow jeopardize America's reliance on imported oil at 100 dollars a barrel. Mr. Bush's policy hopefully will leave office when he does. It is possible that Mr. Putin does not desire a Wahhabist take over of Iran more than other middle-east instability or power increase for Sunni terrorism. The Shi'a of Iran for the time being at least present an alternative to Sunni hegemony over all the Muslims that Russia might politically engage with in Eurasia.

Certainly one would like a perfect Russian society that the British would be proud of, but is that realistic for the time being? Northern free enterprise in the harsh arctic environment and essential infrastructure survival services are not easy to transition into modernity and effectiveness even in America much less Russia. How many American state complained about the price increases of energy deregulation and backed away from it in state legislatures?.
Modern Russia seems to be losing population and geography but it doesn't seem to be fascist. Sure returns the same old in-groups of the Kremlin to power for years at a time and so does the Democrat and Republican parties in Ameria with relatives shoe'd-in, and oil power interests and control of oil revenues seem to be a predominant feature of the state but does that define a fascist state?
Russia may be in a time of identity crisis with geography loss, the transition from communism and various states of mob power, new organized crime power and integration into an unstable and transitioning global economy with the United States sort of balanced on a borrowed federal debt ridden avalanche snow bridge, China and its 1.2 billion progressive polluters burgeoning o the east with an increasing military budget, high tech growing one billion plus on the southwest, a billion restive Muslims eager to blow up Moscow to demonstrate sympathy for freeing up Muslim republic affiliate of Moscow, a traditional concern about Poland and Germany on the west and other substantial issue including the remnants of the cold war missile launch potential. A loss of state authority must be a real concern for Russians today and change may be feared more than authoritarian features.

Putin has a five-year plan to cut 650,000 military personel and improve pay. Taking a cue from America's individual personnel quality increase efforts after the draft era army Mr. Putin is attempting the same. Its not a fascist trend but a realistic policy to try with 20% of the federal budget invested eventually. SImultaneously the Interior ministry loses 33,000 people and the Federal Border Service, Federal Security Service, Federal Railroad lose nearly 232,000. Mr. Putin's policies do not indicate fascism but instead a Russian history consistent modernization of society that can later permit liberalization as security isn't endangered. With corporations, communes and broadcast networks ruling the globe increasingly real individual liberalism may be more rare. So many people have a disregard for intellectualism such as political philosophy might provide to move toward a better political structure for individual liberty.
Authoritarianism is the logical conclusion of capitalism that has overcome democracy incidentally. Trans-national corporations that are inherently undemocratic tend to assert intimidating authority over democracy through influence peddling in congress and later through direct M.B.A. educated business proxies in the executive branch who appoint business loyalist justice department judges willing to acquiesce in trans-national corporate power over the democratic interests of the state. With communism being an authoritarian structure too as a sort of destination of consolidated and uncompetitive trans-national corporations through networking conglomerates and mergers why should President Putin fear any meaningful opposition from the west to his increase of Russian executive power?
President Putin may know that the west objects mainly to obstructions to leveraged trans-national takeover of Russian oil field and economic interests-maybe Exxon Mobil should offer to become Russian oil partners and Haliburton set up a second corporate headquarters in the Kremlin to match their new headquarters in Dubai. Democracy in the United States seemed to take an odd turn with the election of President Bush and the state of emergency in September 2001 that it may not recover from but will need to transition into another direction to escape instead. The 2008 election in Russia and in the United States don't seem promising-maybe Mrs. Putin will stand for the Russian Presidency.

No Real Presidential Candidates for 2008
There are no real Republican candidates in 2008 for the Presidency-not one has a genuine conservative leg to stand on at least. They are trans-nationalists seeking the international autocracies of trans-national corporate power with no interest at all in the proprietary democratic re-empowerment of the modest American republic of the founders dreams.
Capitalism leads to autocracy like its autocratic corporate models when it subverts democracy. Corporatists jealously attack from their incestuous conglomerate trans-national feudal realms monopolistic authoritarian state communism, and believe that autocratic corporate feudalism is democratic so long as four or five conglomerates or zaibatsu exist to challenge communist totalitarianism. It is autocratic totalitarianism that trans-national corporatism leads to however-especially as it unifies with Chinese communism.
Duncan Hunter is the best verisimilitude of political reality Republican pseudo-conservative able to think on his feet, used to an intense Southern California social environment with a real time ability to improvise and yet patient enough to survive the onslaught of ineloquent and maladroit apprehension of his attention with a smile. Hunter hasn't a chance of getting the nomination. Golden tablets found in New York favor auspices and signs for a candidate from New York to win. Political astrologers note the confluence of moron-knee favored candidates in 2008. The American right will probably ignore Duncan Hunter as the Democrat Party is ignoring John Edwards; the only true Democratic nationalist of the top tiers of the left. Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill may be seeking a global imperium with Hilary as Empress. After thrice being Governor of Arkansas and then elected to the White House the Clintons gave Arkansas the 'we emit gases happily in you general direction with satisfying sounds' thanks and moved to New York state to afford a better political base camp for the ascent up to global imperium. The United States is perhaps disposable too for the Clintons as for them "It takes a (global-my interpolation) Village" of idiots for us to become rulers of the village.
Can any of the Republican candidates write haiku such as this about cross purposes...
Orange fall broke mankind
so dead climb crucified not
water of resurrection
Or are they unimaginative followers of transnational corporations termiting away the rotten door border security of the United States? Nationalists have a rational side to their capitalism-they don't give away the store when doing business internationally. Republican candidates must convince the public that they care a about the U.S.A. enough that they will support a strong democracy that seeks the advantage of its citizens before that of any international interests.
Duncan Hunter is the sole neo-realist candidate interested in U.S. national interest as was Ronald Regan before him. Hunter can be the President without betraying the nation in preference for transnational corporations. A french inventor has made a car run on compressed air that with an auxiliary gas motor gets 3000 miles per gallon. Along with solar and wind and home fuel cell recharged electric cars their are a number of alternative power commuter vehicles available but what candidate is advocating a variegated fleet approach to U.S. energy independence? At least Hunter is from California-the alternate energy innovation state. Conservatism it should be remembered doesn't just mean dumb or dependent on fossil fuels for polluting the air and creating vast national trade deficits.
The filthy rich GQ role model guy with maybe a quarter billion dollars in trans-national corporate investments more or less from Massachusetts is a sort of inherited wealth stuffed suit seeking to enrich trans-national corporations and his own personal business interests as a corporate consultant, Mayor Rudy J is over promoted by disaster, while the endurable and faithful Senator McCain is just wrong headed on at least two major issues and approaches to international relations perhaps from being beaten around in captivity. At least someone will rep[lace the bushes but after sixteen years of Clintons and Bushes already the nation may be incapable of selecting good candidates in the primaries-I am not at all optimistic.

On the modern state of exile; what does it mean?
Exile is another tool of political attack through other means and a prerogative of political power.
Exile in the world today has gone far beyond the traditional meaning of the term, and what was that you might ask? Russia is a society with a solid tradition of internal and external exile practiced even today. Last year a former Russian spy in exile Alexander Litvinenko who had said that President Putin was a pedophile was poisoned to death by thallium in a London restaurant-and it wasn't on any menu except perhaps one at the Kremlin. Litvineko formerly was employed by a later Russian exiled billionaire Boris Berezovsky, as a security officer.
Usually Russian writers like Radischev were sent into exile for failing to please state censors. Radischev suicided the second time he was sentenced to Siberia. The author of 'A Journey from Petersburg to Moscow' found Catherine the Great's proscriptions on his works unbearable and hoped the sin of self-exile from life was forgivable. Sometimes Russian politicians have experienced exile when it was politically incorrect to have them murdered. Stalin sent his rival Trotsky into internal exile first before sending him out of Russia eventually to be assassinated in Mexico City in the midst of writing his biography of Stalin.
Georgi Markov a Bulgarian dissident was poisoned in London in 1978.
Then Ukranian political opposition leader Viktor Yushchenko ingested large amounts of the most toxic dioxin known YCDD during a campaign for President against Mr. Putin's favorite; Viktor Yanukovych. Trans-national illegal activities by state authorities is another fruitful area of interest controlled mainly by certain undemocratic elite balancing equations.
Studies have been made on the transnational expulsion of entire peoples trans-nationally into exile such as this workshop at Rutgers University in 2002...http://www- 2005.rhul.ac.uk/Music/Golden-pages /Conferences/02-5-eme.html
Entire peoples may go into political exile without a right of return to their own nation. Exile is also a traditional place to plot a revolution in the exiling country for the exiled. One thinks of Afghan rebels, the Ayatollah Khomeini and Iraqi dissidents against Saddam Hussein as examples of rebels that have plotted revolution. The Palestinian exile refugee camp gangsters that transitioned through terror into the Palestinian Government are additional examples of political exiles and trans-national activity in exile.
Trans-national broadcast corporations themselves have the opportunity to flank national civil rights and attack political targets from over-the-border rebroadcast though affiliates into the relevant nation was legal deniability as simply a 'quote with spin on it'. National democracy with sound civil rights is the primary bulwark against trans-national predations on private citizens.
Modern global communications and travel technology has made physical exile somewhat anachronistic now; what is more important in exiling today is deletion of the individual or group from power and additional ad hoc ostracism. In the power group relationship of us versus them the targeted individual is moved from the us side to the them side-sometimes that is fatal, sometimes it means house arrest, other times some may escape over the border yet few political entities will permit political opponents more liberty than they must in relation to the natural cruelty or political necessity of the regime in power.
It is illustrative of the conditional use of the term exile today to compare Bin Ladin in possible clandestine 'exile' in Pakistan from terrorist bases in Afghanistan after the removal of the Taliban regime in the 2002 Afghan war with that of self-imposed-exile to avoid legal processes by political rivals former Prime Minister Bhutto of Pakistan accused of crimes in office by succeeding P.M./Junta leaders. It is convenient for political opponents to be removed as part of a deal for control by the new military governments on occasion. Exile's purposes haven't changed; just the technology, geographical and social relationships have. The broadcast media of any nation, and the ad hoc trans-national undemocratic broadcast 'empire' represent an ad hoc consortium of trans-national authoritarians (corporations are naturally opposed to democracy for-themselves and support it in nations only so far as it supports corporate increase politically and financially) that may afford no where within global broadcast network 'territory' for escape to exile. Exile may mean an escape to a social sub-class or removal from certain power centers. Exile may mean simply agreeing to a non-competition 'contract' with the establishment for some period of time or for a lifetime. In that way there are a variety of informal exile procedures, many illegal of course, in effect in the world today. Exile today, like American declarations of war, seldom reach the formality of legal proceeding, instead they are carried out through informal and effective adverse processes that enable removal from the protected compresence of political or social power and promotion.
Former Pakistani P.M. Nawaz Sharif was sent into exile, yet in the 1960s hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis and Hindus became refugees in exile as a process of formation after the cleansing. Social ethnic cleansing creating refugees in exile occurred in the former Yugoslavia during the 90s Balkin wars and is happening presently in Iraq as Shi'a and Sunni conflict in the wake of the removal of Saddam Hussein's government by the 2003 American led invasion. Thousands of Iraq's of each side have been killed by sectarian and terrorist forces while hundreds of thousands have gone into voluntary exile abroad for safety.
In exile today it may be convenient to conceal the term exile in order to deny that exiles occur. Exile may be enforced by structuring natural class conditions such that making a politically incorrect decision results in instant disqualification from residence. Perhaps it might be as trivial as building a fence taller than one permitted by a homeowners association causing an eventual expulsion from subdivision paradise, or removal from a social set when a proscribed set characteristic is found- Exile can be a self-exiling process in non-conformity to the established power. It is a perennial political device in that regard but the conditions of its applications have evolved and shall continue to do so until the unsaved are exiled forever to hell metaphorically speaking.

Camping's end-of the world prediction & volcanism
I learned something else about Harold Camping's day the rapture happens and end of the world formulas for 2001, and why 22 Russians abandoned their village and went to live in a remote mine-shaft cave because they believe the world ends next May. I'll write a little about the most prevalent current active end-of-the-world prediction broadcast widely.
Camping thinks the Biblical flood happened in the year 4911 B.C. and with some other calculating finds May 21st the day of rapture and beginning of five months of hell on Earth before its destruction on October 20th. The Russians might be old believers that have made similar calculations on the old calender.
In Quincy Washington where I grew up the whole region is called the channeled scabland for all of the tremendous volcanic flows that happened there 15 million years ago and Bonneville flood much more recently.
http://www.whitman.edu/geology/LocalGeo.html
A tremendous rift opened in the Earth's crust and lava and sulphur dioxide poured out for years creating a darkening of the Earth's skies and causing one of the five great mass extinctions in world history. The end times Biblical scenarios of tremendous earthquakes and a darkening of the skies have a somewhat similar account of the apocalypse. I think that interesting.
No I don't have confidence in end-of-the world predictions, yet there probably was a local flood that covered the 'world' of the lowlands of ancient Iraq about 5000 b.c., and there was another great volcanic rift in the crust in India's Deccan rift. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deccan_Traps that lasted maybe 30,000 years around 60 million years before present.
The hot spot in the Earth's mantle that caused the volcanism in Eastern Washington is not under Yellowstone Park (the Earth's crust in the North American plate is drifting slowly east). Old faithful has been irregular lately, and maybe human faith too-perhaps another volcanic rift will start in 2011 with five months of darkening skies and sulphur dioxide build-up until everyone is extinct-who knows? The rapture sounds good anyway.
So much for analysis of the theory-I am not very technical on the subject.
