Welcome to the final stages of the coup...
By Larisa Alexandrovna
If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it. ~ Julius Caesar
In 2000, the long fought for and long admired democracy of the United States of America began a slow and steady decline toward fascism - a Bush family tradition - with the installment of a president - a man the citizens overwhelmingly rejected (although the funny math told a still believed myth) - by a few corrupt judges on the US Supreme Court. That coup is now nearly complete and checkmate is all but unavoidable.
Let me first point you to the Bush administration's so-called Wall Street bailout bill, here, so that you can see for yourself that this treachery is being conducted in the light of day. Fascism is finally and formally out of the right-wing closet even if the F word is not yet openly being used (although it should be, and often).
Now, if you do not yet understand that the Wall Street crisis is a man-made disaster done through intentional deregulation and corruption, I have a bridge in Alaska to sell to you (or Sara Palin does anyway). This manufactured crisis is now to be remedied, if the fiscal fascists get their way, with the total transfer of Congressional powers (the few that still remain) to the Executive Branch and the total transfer of public funds into corporate (via government as intermediary) hands.
Adam Davidson of NPR blogs about the so-called bailout bill as follows:
"I would guess that this has to be one of the biggest peacetime transfers of power from Congress to the Administration in history. (Anyone know?). Certainly one of the most concise.
"The Treasury Secretary can buy broadly defined assets, on any terms he wants, he can hire anyone he wants to do it and can appoint private sector companies as financial deputies of the US government. And he can write whatever regulation he thinks are needed."
Most importantly, Davidson points to this passage in the bill:
"Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency."
The Bush family, in the form of Prescott Bush, has tried a more aggressive coup before in order to install fascism in this country. This treasonous plot was called "the Business Plot," because the high-level plotters - including Prescott Bush - were Wall Street men who openly supported fascism.

Could the FEMA concentration camps all over the country be for the poor, the dispossessed, the homeless, and dissenters?
The symbol of fascism is the fasces, in case you were wondering about the illustration I chose, above:

Smooth Sailing Till The Next Election? Maybe Not
“[T]he entire continuum of public and private life in the United States has been transformed by 9/11, the lengthy preparations for it, the ensuing cover-up, and the massive consolidation of authoritarian policies and institutions achieved in its wake. In short, I maintain that unless this phenomenon is exposed at its roots, the fundamental changes it has wrought will become permanent. That would constitute the death of the American republic.”
-Michael Ruppert, “Crossing the Rubicon”, page 14
We currently have an illegitimate, fascist war criminal administration in control of our government, that stole the elections that gave them that power, engineered an act of state sponsored-terrorism in order to remove all of the Rights that countless patriots have died for, and invade two nations in order to steal more oil and land for profit and imperial power. They have been torturing, illegally detaining and killing countless innocents over the past years, while bankrupting our economy to further concentrate the power in the hands of international bankers and corporations, who are their masters.
If all of that sounds ridiculous to you, you may want to stop reading now; you are probably too brainwashed for this information to be of any use to you. If however, you have not relied on the controlled corporate media for your information, and have seen and heard the quality evidence that supports these claims, read on.
I believe the time is critical now, because it is unlikely that these fascist murderers are going to leave office quietly without perpetrating more violence and without using the tyrannical powers which they have given themselves in the name of “The War on Terror”. Why would they pass laws streamlining the process to create martial law, forced vaccinations, detentions without trial, etc. unless they were planning on using them? Do you, like so many others, think that Obama or Clinton is going to restore all our rights and save the planet from ecological destruction, and all we have to do is wait till November? That would be nice, but when we take into consideration what these sadistic fascists have already done, it is prudent to not assume they are done with their evil ways.
First off we have to IGNORE THE CIRCUS ON NPR/FOX, ETC. The presidential campaigns being the top story of the corporate media, starting over a year and a half before the 08 election, is a purposeful distraction from issues of real importance like the truth about 9/11 and the past two elections. This media circus would have us forget that all of our Constitutional rights have been removed, and that we now live in a police state, partially dormant. Never mind that over a million civilians have already been killed, never mind the women and children that were killed today with bullets and bombs paid for by your tax dollars, no, instead lets get the latest update on how many millions McCain, Clinton, Obama, etc. have raised. (Notice too, the lack of commentary on campaign finance reform, that might actually return us to a Republic where representatives would actually represent the People, instead of corporations). Never mind that the evidence is overwhelming that the past two presidential elections were rigged and 9/11 was an inside job, no, pay attention to the manufactured circus America, so that impeachment will seem like a ridiculous idea.

How to create an angry American
High treason... this adds credence to the idea that the powers that be do whatever they want at will and with impunity; adding credence to the fact that the U.S. Government doesn't give a damn about humanity or anyone's "rights". George Carlin's assertion that "it's called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it" seems especially true when these "officials" are called out and Congress doesn't freakn move!

Top Chinese cops protect Olympic flame
This story is a little old, and I'm sorry if its a repost, but I couldn't find it anywhere else on current.
Apparently some of the guards of the Olympic Flame are not even citizens of the countries in which it is traveling. China has amassed its own "flame protection squad" which is authorized to protect the flame in foreign countries, and has been doing so throughout its treacherous journey.
'Yolaine De La Bigne, a French environmental journalist who was a torchbearer in Paris, told The Associated Press she tried to wear a headband with a Tibetan flag, but the Chinese agents ripped it away from her.
"It was seen and then, after four seconds, all the Chinese security pounced on me. There were at least five or six (of them). They started to get angry" and shouted "No! No! No!" in English, she said.'
from http://blog.foreignpolicy.com/node/8610 :
"The agents are described as "employees of the Beijing Organizing Committee," which founded a "flame protection squad" in August 2007. [...]
According to Chinese media, the agents are members of the paramilitary People's Armed Police, which in China is responsible for fighting unrest and maintaining internal stability. Tens of thousands of the "Wujing," as the People's Armed Police are called in Chinese, recently took part in crackdowns against demonstrators in Tibet and neighboring regions.
"These men, chosen from around the country, are each tall and large and are eminently talented and powerful," the squad's leader Zhao Si was quoted as saying. "Their outstanding physical quality is not in the slightest inferior to that of specialized athletes."
This sort of action is practically treason, letting officials from other countries police our citizens. Again, sorry if I'm late on the scene with this one, but it really grinds my gears. This story is a little old, and I'm sorry if its a repost, but I couldn't find it anywhere else on current. ... more -

McClellan's Dish: Impeachment Is Back On The Table
Why isn't this on every front page in this country? Why is it not the focus of every news show in this country? This is an admission of treason and if this is not reason enough to impeach both Bush and Cheney then I don't know what is. How can Congress just sit on their hands and do nothing? What will we tell our children when they ask us why we did nothing? What will we then tell them when this happens again? Because unless we stand up to this now, it will happen again and we will have no one to blame but ourselves. I truly am stunned this hasn't gotten more airplay. McClellan could well be Bush's Dean (Referring to John Dean whose testimony broke open Watergate,) and people sit worrying more about where to shop on Black Friday than the actions of those who have done nothing but usurp our government with the help of a corporate mainstream media keeping this hidden. It will be up to stations like Current and the Internet to take up the mantle and I hope they do. What has happened to this country? Are people simply afraid to speak out, or is that just an excuse to cover up that in reality people on the whole are just too contented and lazy to care? Some things are more important than fear, and this damn well is one of them.///////From the link:///// "The most powerful leader in the world had called upon me to speak on his behalf and help restore credibility he lost amid the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So I stood at the White House briefing room podium in front of the glare of the klieg lights for the better part of two weeks and publicly exonerated two of the senior-most aides in the White House: Karl Rove and Scooter Libby.../////There was one problem. It was not true.///// I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the Vice President, the President's chief of staff, and the President himself./////

Should Bush Fire Himself As He Had Promised Back In 2004?
A year after he promised to fire anyone who was involved in outing Valerie Plame, Bush said that if anyone in his administration was involved in outing Valerie Plame, that person would no longer be a part of the administration.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8605680/
Now, it has come to light that he was personally involved in the outing of Valerie Plame, as were Cheney and a few others. Scott McLellan, an intimate insider, has spilled the beans. Yet this dynamite piece of news seems to have escaped the attention of US mainstream media... A year after he promised to fire anyone who was involved in outing Valerie Plame, Bush said that if anyone in his administration was i... more -
