Spinal Tap for The Fourth Estate

 

The strangest things happen in the background while we busy ourselves with brainless TV comedies, or thrill to the sight of folks propelling balls into holes or baskets, over nets or to great distances and heights.  Creepy things that seem so unrelated, so insignificant to the man, woman or child on the street.

 

While some of us have been sleeping, and generally continue to slumber, towering media organizations such as the Associated Press and Fox News discovered their phones, e-mails and most vital communications have been hacked and tapped and snooped upon by people hanging on every word -- that is, government people, at the highest levels.

Some sources suggest that this is just the tip of a very huge, submersible iceberg -- that, in fact, there may be more information out there regarding news organizations which, if brought forth, could be devastating to the current Administration. 

Already, such revelations have had a chilling effect on whistle blowers in general, and obviously the result would be the same for active and even current military personnel who might wish to step forth with UFO documentation and testimony, so let us not look upon the government intervention publicized recently as specific only to leaks regarding Middle Eastern affairs and the like.

The Obama Administration at the highest levels, in addition to the IRS and Eric "Fast & Furious" Holder's Department of Just-His, has a lot of explaining to do about a lot of things.  Not that they walk alone, of course.  Trouble is, when a population and its very media are intimidated and directed by the arrogance, dominance and manipulation exhibited by an Administration gone damned nearly funky-chicken paranoid, as patriotic whistle blowers of note and repute are at last coming forward to warn us all, even routine matters can sizzle with potential danger.  Who will save us, if not ourselves?

The Ephemeral Nature of Incredulity's Protective Viscous Layers

Maybe some of my critics now know why I'm just as comfortable exploring political issues (albeit awkwardly) as I am the UFO subject:  It all comes down to lies.  Lies of convenience, lies to cover up, lies to change history, lies to deny the truth, lies intended to create more lies. . .and on and on.  Oh, almost forgot -- lies to keep an agenda progressing.

Some of you continue to cling to a disclosure fantasy, certain that the beneficent Obama White House is "on our side," poised to spill the beans about extraordinary UFO matters. 

But just feast your eyes upon this week's escalating news of a government gone wild, and there's no way the fat lady is prepared to sing melodies of disclosure yet.  Quite the opposite, I should imagine.

I served in the Air Force under President Richard Nixon and later watched the Watergate scandal unfold. As I recall, nobody died by way of Watergate.  But four Americans are dead under Benghazigate, and that little piece of outrageous real estate is owned by President Obama and Hillary Clinton -- two people whom the mainstream media have gone all out to protect, no matter what.  Until maybe it cannot anymore.  Tick, tick, tick -- the Obama fantasy, arguably the most dangerous American government influence in modern history, teeters in preparation for a potential fall.  Tick, tick, tick . . .now the media reports that the Internal Revenue Service corruption regarding highly illegal treatment of conservative groups and individuals may indeed reach into Washington, D.C.  Tick, tick, tick. . .Over the past several days, an impressive list of names has received considerable attention, showing numerous marital and family relationships between people high up in TV news divisions and people working for the Obama Administration.  Tick. . .tick. . .tick. . .the Associated Press and ?? news organizations and journalists discover the Justice Dept. (Obama Corp., Fast and Furious Division, Eric Holder, prop.) has monitored their phone call records, so now they're worried.  Be worried, be very worried.  Tick, tick, tick. . .When news organizations and reporters embrace repressive government institutions with love and affection, as if rolling carefree in road kill, whilst simultaneously ignoring the rising stench of corruption, little good will usually come of it. 

Obama warned students during another hideous speech last week to pay no attention to whispers of tyranny in the federal government.  Just days later, government tyranny has smacked us in the face.  Funny how life works.

Kind of ironic that Steve Bassett's shindig in D.C. dealt in part with government secrecy while almost simultaneously the president's Benghazi nightmare began to unfold to depths previously publicly untold.  If that weren't enough, obvious political tricks via the Internal Revenue Service began to surface.

But back to Bassett's affair for a moment.  There's no point in extensive re-hash, because you can Read All About It via various links in the margin.  To be blunt, I was surprised because there were more positives than negatives during the week-long session -- though the negatives generally receive the best publicity.  I was comforted to see former USAF captain Robert Salas return to Washington -- with former military colleagues of a similar mind -- to emphasize the importance of instances where UFOs have visited nuclear weapons facilities.  Salas and others had front-row seats to such events in the past, and must not be ignored.

Of special interest were the accounts of two former Air Force airmen who may have been exposed to dangerous emissions of -- something -- during their UFO encounters at Bentwaters (the Rendlesham Forest incident) in 1980, because they are absolutely unable to access their military medical records from the government.  As journalist Billy Cox reported (see link), even Arizona Sen. John Kyl was unable to pry medical information from the government on their behalf.  Perhaps Mr. Obama or Mr. Holder or Ms. Napolitano could help?  Then again, I doubt it.  No national security issues to see here, either, so just move along folks. . .

A dirty and dangerous White House?  If you didn't suspect it before, you should suspect it now.  If you still don't wonder, you probably won't allow yourself the obligation to do so.  Meantime, we're all being spied upon by the, uh, most open Administration in history.

As surely as I'm typing this rant right now, both the military services and government agencies of note are staffed with men and women who know things, important and dreadful things, leading them to question the viability and intentions of the Obama Administration.  I guess whistle-blowing isn't what it used to be, but if there are stories to be told, they need to be related securely and safely, for tyranny, it appears, may not be just a state of mind in the current political atmosphere.  I say, blow those damned whistles and keep blowing them until the national tarnish evaporates and the criminals of bureaucracy -- and not the whistleblowers -- go off to prison.

CONGRATULATIONS ABC-TV NEWS BLUNDERERS:  When David Muir reported on the Benghazi affair Saturday evening (May 11), the caption at the bottom of the screen read BENGHAZI BLACKLASH.  Huh?  In the words of the chronically paranoid -- isn't that racist?  Not only has TV journalism taken the long road to the village of Usuck, its human components apparently find the ability to spell words correctly a foolish imposition. 

Calling All Robots!

I'm no groupie for the United Nations, though I must say I was mighty taken with those UFO postage stamps issued when Grenada's Sir Eric Gairy was. . .well, yes, he did eventually encounter serious personal trouble, but let bygones be bygones.  Then there was Kurt Waldheim's recorded message From The People Of Earth included on a spacecraft hurtled out into the cosmos. . .and then, some years later, his WW II Nazi connections came to light in the media.   Oopsie. But not to digress, it's just that the UN is so rocking with, um, interesting people, some who should be in prison, global thugs who come here, meet here and assist in draining the U.S. Treasury dry.  Or would that be the Fed that either drains or gets drained?  I get these things so confused anymore.  Anyway. . .

Last week, the UN voiced anxious concerns about the technological world's development of "killer robots," lethal machines endowed with the ability to make decisions on who and what to kill and destroy.  In other words, a military dream.  These robots, insist  -- some -- UN members, must never be allowed to roam the earth.

I believe killer robots will come forth, plenty of them, because technology tends to do its own thing, with careless disregard about what annoys the rest of the world.  Actually, the UN may have just assured its own demise, and I can't say I'm disappointed.  But how would this blessed event happen?  Two words:  Digital memory.

Every school kid should know by now that everything put out on the Internet lasts "forever," so it's no stretch to assume that mere decades from now, when killer robots angrily patrol the earth with an attitude akin to Gort   stoned on crack, today's news headlines will exist for robotic brains to recall and scan -- and I'm tellin' ya, when those robots read those articles about aborting their existence, their artificial calculating synapses are gonna snap.  That is, as they say on the TV and radio these days, they'll be pissed.  This information, having been digitally excavated and now high on the minds of killer robots across the planet, will cause entire robot fleets to join together and march, fly and burrow toward the United Nations building, all focused on one thought -- destroy.  Of course, we can charitably hope that all UN staff and occupants are allowed sufficient time to exit the premises, but one never knows the mind of killer robots taught to think for themselves.

Yet, there may be a silver lining here.  Just days after killer robot lasers and dematerialization beams (obviously invented and used routinely in the future) obliterate every trace of the UN, a new United Nations will be built in some banana republic and become so insignificant that even killer robots won't bother to seek them out for destruction.  Best of all, the UN won't be in the USA anymore to suck the country like vampire bats, as world terrorist sympathizers and criminals come and go, enjoying and demanding hospitality from the kindly and moronic who currently welcome and support this travesty.  No downsides here, so -- onward killer robots!

At least killer robots would know how to dispose of a terrorist's remains, which seems to be a dilemma for Massachusetts, what with The Older Brother's bullet-ridden / road kill carcass stinking up the state.  I suggest they conduct a good riddance ceremony and bury his ass in a pet cemetery, way, way lower in the ground than any of the other animals laid to rest there.  The guy was, after all, lower as a species than any animal lovingly placed in the ground.  Maybe bury him underneath somebody's departed pet pig (for obvious reasons).

Thank you, Barbara Bush for actually saying the words, no more Bushes for president.  We hope she was serious.  Now it's your turn, Bill Clinton, just say the words, and the words are not no more Bushes. . .

OBAMA IN WONDERLAND:  When it involves visiting other countries and blaming the USA for everything bad in the world, this president has become a caricature of himself.  He did it again, this time during his visit to Mexico, where he also attempted to make a case for the new immigration bill -- to Mexicans!  WTF?  U.S. military, national and local cemeteries are filled with people who tried to make the world a better place, and all this fraud can do is criticize our history and actions when he travels internationally, in between expensive vacations.  It's amazing that he could bring up the gun "problem," when his close buddy and AG Eric Holder was involved with the Fast and Furious gun disaster, and we don't mean the movie.  As an Independent voter once honored with a congressional recommendation to work with a Democratic Administration by a Democratic congressman, it pains me to suggest that I believe Mr. Obama would be far happier and relevant as president of Venezuela -- surely, another vacancy will occur one day soon, and I hear the weather is just great down there.  Oh -- and they don't care about Benghazi, so there won't be any indelicate questions asked.

GOOD MORRRRRRRRNING, SYRIA!  We’re the USA and we were in the neighborhood and decided to stop by, and noticed you look a bit untidy, so we want to. . . . . . . . .Well, at least the country’s name is easier to spell than some of them over there.  Oh yes, looks like we’re on our way, having considered everything – we hope – except troops to be found for boots on the ground.  The latest plan may be to take out Syrian air power and runways with missiles, and to arm and support the “rebels,” but there’s that always sticky little issue about determining who the rebels are – and how we can differentiate between good rebels and evil rebels who hate the United States.  Our government (hello Sen. McCain) seems to believe this can be done, but my question is – isn’t our ability to determine bad from good already all fudged up in Afghanistan, where supposed friends continue to turn their weapons on our military personnel in the name of Allah?  Al Qaeda is never far behind as we make our decisions, and you can bet they’ll be in the mix, masquerading as good guys.  Now that Israel is pressured as a side-effect, the USA seems destined for involvement.  President Obama will respond in some way, and then he’ll take another extravagant vacation (he needs to rest up before the Unaffordable Care Act kicks in with storm-surge force next year, likely confounding and angering even his closest clueless supporters).

GAY ATHLETES:  I realize this may be a juvenile or foolish observation, but as far as I’m concerned all sports are gay.  Good grief, just look at the attire or lack thereof and you needn’t explore further.  I don’t get the current “thing” about athletes coming out regarding their sexual identities because it’s nothing new.  In recent days I’ve heard several famous names in sports being thrown out there, but since we’re on the topic at the moment, I’ll throw in my two cents for an historical perspective and remind those in the media who obviously forgot or didn’t go back far enough – a football player named David Kopay not only (eventually) outed himself (maybe with “help,” I don’t remember), he also wrote a book about it.  Now you know.

NOT AN OBAMA FAN:  You probably heard about freshman Congressman Tom Cotton’s rather definitive opinion about the president’s performance a few days ago, offered on the House floor, but if not here’s the Arkansas Republican’s impression in his own words:

 “I rise today to express grave doubts about the Obama Administration’s counter-terrorism policies and programs. Counterterrorism is often shrouded in secrecy, as it should be, so let us judge by the results. In barely four years in office, five jihadists have reached their targets in the United States under Barack Obama -- the Boston Marathon bomber, the underwear bomber, the Times Square Bomber, the Fort Hood shooter, and in my own state, the Little Rock recruiting office shooter. In the

over seven years after 9/11 under George W. Bush, how many terrorists reached their target in the United States?  Zero!  We need to ask, why is the Obama Administration failing in its mission to stop terrorism before it reaches its targets in the United States?”

Whew!  Were I the president, I’d much rather talk about gay athletes than this.  And then I'd hop aboard Air Force One and take a very costly vacation far, far away.
