It is relevant because mr kissinger is guilty of conspiring to form a one world type government.
I thought it was Obama? Personally I think you should lay off the caffeine and the diet pills for a while.

Wow, what an honor it is to have such a string of replies to the couple comments that I left a while back. Sorry, but I've been a wee bit too busy doing the Nation's business over here on another continent for the 5th year in a row to keep up with all the back and forth here. It is true that the more of the world that I see, the more I appreciate where I come from. Thank God my ancestors left before dying of starvation in Ireland or a gas-chanber in Auswitz. News flash to all who would rather fight your fellow American than raise a hand against somebody who actually wants to hurt you: there is genocide going on actively in the world, arabs against blacks in northern africa, arabs against native christians in northern iraq, etc.

To the abolishonist: yes, we will never escape some form of propaganda, no matter where or when we are. Don't you think that the mild and subtle propaganda that we endure as Americans is better than the forced-down-your-throat version that would cause us all to vomit if the Fed was really abolished and another power were to exert their influence on you and I? Start learning Chinese and Spanish (si, yo hablo espanol tambien). Yes, good people people tend to die in wars, including friends. All wars can be called senseless due the loss of so many good and talented people (not counting other resources, either), some more than others, but they happen. I am a real person who grew up on the East Side of Stamford, worked at many places that you've probably been to, and I have a real life and a real story, just like you. I am not a propagandist or a robot or a mouthpiece of the fed, I'm just Joe. It was my distain for IGNORANCE that motivated me to volenteer (not volen-told) to talk with those students. It was actually my own idea. Too many folks support or protest important things without knowing anything about them. My short time spent with those students simply exposed them to a different story from what they have been told by the many ignorant folks their are in our lovely Gold Coast. If you want less-senselessness, follow the lead of a fine New York Senatory and reinstitute the draft (which is the standar din the rest of the world, encluding peaceful and "enlightened" Europe). Well see how much more thoroughly our elected reps scrutinize justifications if their own son, daughter, nephew, etc, would be in harms way. Also, Kissenger was alright to say what he said because of 2 things: first, he himself served as an enlisted Soldier in the US Army. Second, at the level where he sat (international strategies), we are ALL on a big chess board or "risk" board.

Sadly enough, I will not be rolling up my sleves in continuing a debate/discussion in the bloesphere, I've got other things to do. I will try to keep this post in mind and check back every so often.

Something about me: it takes a lot to get to me. The Abolishonist has not gotten to me. If I determine that any serious and original thought some from him/her, then I may begin to take some interest, but as it stands right now, I only see a person motivated by hate and ignorance.

Adios,

Joe

Sure ponder this thought, a strong national defense does not include invading foreign nations.

I guess you do tune into TV? How would you know if Fox news or CNN is left, right, propoganda, truthful, liars, idiots, or maybe to you...all the above.

And to let people believe that you only read and exercise and watch zero television? Come on now.

Daily Horoscope for May 19

Scorpio

There are days when you feel you can't say or do anything right, but happily this isn't one of them. In fact, it's a wonderful day in which everything goes well and it's remarkably easy to get on well with whoever happens to be around. Not that you want to spend your time with just any old person. You'd much rather get together with some close friends or that special someone in your life.
