Pat Shannan's MUSINGS
Election 2000: The Dice are Loaded
At every election time, I am silently reminded and humbly moved to quote from my 1992 thriller and should-have-been bestseller, I Rode with Tupper. (If anything has changed since then, it has only been for the worse.):
". . .We live in a world of deception from morning till night every day of our lives. From the coy high school cheerleader with the Kleenex stuffed in her bra to the blowhard politician making campaign promises that he knows he cannot keep, the whole realm of our existence is permeated with lies. Pretension is a way of life. Hypocrisy has longed seemed to be a more grievous human fault than the so-called seven deadly sins. . . Will we ever, as a people, rise above our own hypocrisy and say to these blatherskites, `Get out of my life, you liar,' instead of standing in hopeful, silent reverence of every piece of gobbledygook they utter?
"But then, we are born into a world of deception and are the total mercy of a control system that is so absolute that most people never suspect the deception, let alone inquire into it. In fact, people are so conditioned to a spiritual, economic, and political system that they are horrified when they are confronted with information that does not conform to their pre-conditioning."
All this was written before I ever heard of Jim and Kenneth Collier and their astounding twenty-year research and expose' of computer vote fraud throughout America. Therefore, we now execute a few moments of shock treatment in an attempt to bring the victims of cognitive dissonance back to reality with regard to the pending "election."
This year's main contender - the "conservative" - is caught on video in days past sampling cocaine with his little brother, who just happens to be the governor of Florida these days. Their father, a former 12-year president (although officially only four) and former head of Worldwide Murder Inc., more commonly known as the CIA, is accused of despicable private behavior in no less than three non-fiction books circling through the underground. It is common knowledge among the private investigators and former players that Papa, as vice president, and the Arkansas governor at the time were the bipartisan kingpins of the largest drug operation in America, if not the world.
Number 2, who for the past eight years has been the lapdog of the current president (praising ad nauseam his character and morals) and who changes his colors faster than a chameleon, may have just placed himself in the rifle sights of the Mossad, with the appointment of his vice presidential candidate. That is if he somehow stumbles into office through yet another vote fraud. Outrageous! you say? We remind you that Ronald Reagan was in office but a scant nine weeks before an alleged "lone nut" came within one inch of removing him forever. Can you remember who was waiting in the wings? Assassination has become "The American Way" of political elevation.
Number 3, who by all honest opinion polls and constitutional consideration should be far and away number 1, has withered to an also ran who will be fortunate to garner 5% of the vote.
Speaking of Number Three, let us rewind the tape and have a reminding look at how Pat Buchanan was done-in by this vote fraud in 1996. In the early months of that year, Buchanan was steaming like a freight train, saying all the right things, and even getting his fair share of the news coverage. He had won the New Hampshire and Iowa primaries. The powers-that-be took a peek into the crystal ball and talked to their Ouija boards, and the message was clear. If Pat Buchanan gets the Republican nomination, he is going to chase Bill Clinton back to the trailer parks of Little Rock, never to be heard from again. The best solution at that early date - before the problem could be multiplied further, necessitating more drastic action such as a fatal "accident" - was to elevate Senator Bob Dole in the eyes of the public. It was accomplished with computer vote fraud.
It may have smelled a little "fishy" to some of the more astute of the general public, but to the few thousand who by that time had read the Collier's book, it was far more than that. It was glaringly obvious. Maybe you will agree. Here's what happened.
It was what they like to call "Super Tuesday" - that primary day in March when there were Republican primaries in eight western states, Oregon, California, Arizona, etc. At 7:00 p.m. CST, Dan Rather came on with somewhat premature announcement that Sen. Dole had "swept the `Super Tuesday' primaries by winning all eight in the western states." Amazing report, seeing as how it was only five o'clock in the west and the polls were still open!
Okay, let's give Dan and CBS the benefit of the doubt and call it, as they do, a "projection" - even though he didn't call it that and did say that Dole had won. Where do these media boys get the ability to "project" before the polls are closed and a considerable percentage of the votes are counted? The Collier brothers can best explain that one, as space prohibits our going into many of the sordid details in this column.
However, it should be noted as further circumstantial evidence of the sham, that on the following Saturday night both Buchanan and Dole were the featured speakers at separate Republican gatherings - Dole in Los Angeles and Buchanan in Marietta, Georgia. This new "conquering hero," the alleged winner of eight primaries in L.A.'s backyard only four days earlier, drew around 300 people to hear his talk. On the same night, Pat Buchanan spoke to over 3,000.
But Buchanan never recovered from the subterfuge. The primary vote is a dictate to the delegates at convention time, and Dole became the anointed one. With the real threat out of the way, the November election was a piece of cake for Slick Willie. The computer fraud at that time was hardly even necessary, although it was probably applied in some of the more questionable locations as a safety measure anyway.
Elections are a joke today, and not a very funny one at that. This is the result of the nefarious, surreptitious subterfuge called computer vote fraud. James and Kenneth Collier wrote a highly suppressed book about it a few years ago entitled VoteScam. It is the shocking documentary of how elections have been stolen via computer counting for the past three decades. It boils down to a simple basic: Are you the bureaucracy's candidate or the people's candidate? And the titillating question: How can the people's candidate always manage to lose?
Votescam asserts the unthinkable. It is a strange and frightening true detective story. It contains fact, film, documents and visions seldom seen by the public. It is a troubling look at the corruption of the American vote that most Americans cannot bear to believe is even partly true.
The authors assert, and back it up with daring reporting, that your vote and mine may now be a meaningless bit of energy directed by preprogrammed computers - which can be fixed to select certain pre-ordained candidates and leave no footprints or paper trail. In short, computers are covertly stealing your vote.
The vote has been stolen from you by a cartel of federal "national security" bureaucrats. These include higher-ups in the Central Intelligence Agency, political party leaders, Congressmen, co-opted journalists - and the owners and managers of the major Establishment news media, who have decided in concert that how America's votes are counted, by whom they are counted. Just how the results are verified and delivered to the public is, as one of them put it, "Not a proper area of inquiry." By means of an unofficial private corporation named News Election Service (NES), the Establishment press has actual physical control of the counting of the votes and it refuses to let the public know how it is done. It does, however, slide the prearranged results to the national mouthpieces - NBC, CBS, ABC, and CNN - for dissemination to the masses, as shown with the Dole/Buchanan charade above.
Activist Jim Condit, founder of Citizens for a Fair Vote Count (CFVC), said in a radio interview with our colleague Tom Valentine recently, "I truly believe that the greatest enemy that Americans have ever faced are the owners of the news departments at the major television networks."
Most Americans today are aware that a left-wing press blankets the fifty states. The once popular belief that most of our newspapers are either Republican or Democrat, in the traditional sense, belongs with Tom Sawyer's notion that a horse hair placed in bottle of water will turn into a snake. Because today so many pro-Communist policies are peddled under "Democratic" or "Republican" labels by the socialists now dominating both major parties, the overwhelming majority of our newspapers constantly propagandize for the socialist causes of democracy - a mere stepping stone to communism.
The two parties are actually merged into one now - Republicrats - the party of the bureaucracy. Just as the American sucker must be constantly reminded that by paying his fair share in taxes he is "supporting America," he must also continue to believe that by casting a vote he can be involved in "change." Why then does private business continue to deteriorate while the bureaucracy flourishes? Because a vote for the Republicrats is always a vote for the bureaucracy, bigger central government, and fewer liberties.
The Republicrats and their left-wing cohorts naturally are not content with their lion's share of the mass media. If they cannot infiltrate and capture control of an opposing publication, they make an-all out effort to drive it out of business in an attempt to seize total control of America's mass communications and the collective public mind.
Their hi-tech development of computer vote fraud has proven to be one more giant step toward total control of the masses, as outlined by Karl Marx. And it was the mass murderer Joe Stalin who said something about it not really being important who casts the votes but who counts 'em!
Court Says City Can't Sue Gun Makers for Damages CINCINNATI (Reuters) - Saying it did not want to open a ''Pandora's box'' for lawsuits against other industries, an appeals court has upheld a judge's decision to throw out a suit by the city of Cincinnati seeking to recover millions of dollars from gun manufacturers. In its unanimous decision Friday, the Ohio First District Court of Appeals likened the city suit to the ``absurdity'' of suing the makers of matches because of losses from arson. Cincinnati had joined with more than 30 other cities nationwide in attempting to recover enormous monetary sums from gunmakers for crime and violence done with guns. The appellate court's opinion said the city suit was fatally flawed because it had failed to link any direct damages from gun violence to specific gun-manufacturer defendants. ``Manufacturers have no duty to give warnings about the obvious dangers of handguns,'' the court's majority opinion said. ``Were we to decide otherwise, we would open a Pandora's box. The city could sue the manufacturers of matches for arson, or automobile manufacturers for traffic accidents, or breweries for drunken driving.''
Not to mention suing the tobacco companies for shoving lighted cigarettes into the mouths of millions of unsuspecting innocent citizens who never had warning! A recent political cartoon said it all. It depicted a wrinkled and decrepit plaintiff on the witness stand, wearing an oxygen tank and breathing apparatus. The judge asks him how he arrived at the unusual figure of $143 billion he is asking in damages. The man replies, "That's a dollar for each time I was warned not to smoke their !@#$% cigarettes."
