Random bits of tyranny for the day
















Ever wonder why so many of the troops in Iraq still believe that Saddam was responsible for, or at minimum participated in, 911?


Well, it appears that lying is more important than truth.

Wonkette has uncovered the facts about what information is heard in Iraq by our troops. It seems that only the extreme fanatic right wing commetators are allowed to air their sleaze do our military troops:

Here is some curious observations….. What happens when bulk ammunition, primarily 7.62, but also 9mm and others, is in very short supply? What happens when MRE’s ( Meals Ready to Eat) are also hard to find.

Not a worry you say? Not really into stock piling ammo and ready to eat food?

Apparently both bulk ammunition of several popular calibers and emergency food supplies are getting harder to buy in the U.S.. It may be a temporary shortage. It may be nothing at all. But perhaps it is something.....?

Consider this, perhaps this signals two things, both related. Suppose that the War in Iraq is going very badly, so our troops suddenly needs lots of ammo, and the standard ammunition manufacturers can't supply enough. So they grab it from civilian supplies. But, perhaps a more sinister move is that there is to be another war, perhaps in Iran, and a lot of ammo is going to be needed for that debacle. Gonna need to stockpile a lot of ammo and eats.

Is the U.S. Government buying up huge bulk orders of ammo and MRE’s to supply the military for a long bloody war? Or Wars?

The second part of this paranoid mind trip is that suppose the U.S. Government is buying up ammo because they specifically do not want U.S. Citizens to have it? Martial law is a whole lot harder when the citizens are well armed, have plenty of ammo, and can hole up with MRE’s.

Just a thought. But remember, Marital Law is not just a whimsy, it is on the books and ready to be implemented by the Bush Junta, and they really mean it. They have have the plans already made, they have the concentration camps set up, and the Posse Comitatus Law is near death. It really isn't so great a leap. And, couple this with the clearly deteriorating situation of the Bush Administration, we have the makings of desperate tyrants. Desperate tyrants will do whatever it takes to hang on to power.

Think about...and try to get some 7.62 ammo and MRE's while your at it.

Go to Urban Survival, good site. They reported the information about ammunition and MRE shortages:

  • "At Cabelas (www.cabelas.com) I found when I tried to order 7.62 X 39 154 grain soft points in the 500 round bulks pack (Item IG-215187) they were on back order. So were the 1,000 round boxes. Also, the 7.62 X 39 hollow point rounds in quantity (500 and up) are back ordered.

  • No problem, I thought - I'll just go to Cheaper Than Dirt (www.cheaperthandirt.com) and buy some there. Anything in quantity (and some special use) 7.62 has the "check status" warning - indicating back ordered.

  • At Sportsman's Guide (www.sportsmansguide.com) I was able to find some sealed cans of 7.62 full metal jacket (FMJ),..." But then he found out that there were long long waiting times for this ammunition.
Also go to "What Really Happened", Web site, good one too.

And now this…


Pay too much and you could raise the alarm
By BOB KERRThe Providence Journal 28-FEB-06

“…They, (the Soehnge’s, a retired couple in Rhode Island) paid down some debt. The balance on their JCPenney Platinum MasterCard had gotten to an unhealthy level. So they sent in a large payment, a check for $6,522.

And an alarm went off. A red flag went up. The Soehnges' behavior was found questionable….”
“…They were told…, that the amount they had sent in was much larger than their normal monthly payment. And if the increase hits a certain percentage higher than that normal payment, Homeland Security has to be notified…”

That is the story. If you pay too much on your credit cards, Homeland Security will be notified to check your ass out. After all, pay off those credit card debts and you are a direct threat to the Banking Industry. This is another example of how far the U.S. has fallen from its promise of hope, freedom, and democracy. Face it people, we are captives of an economic system that absolutely rewards a tiny minority of uber-rich at the top, and locks the rest of us into bondage with shackles of debt. It is Economic Slavery. No less vicious, no less dehumanizing, no less horrific than slavery in the cotton fields of the South. It is just slightly more subtle.

So be careful about paying off your credit cards too quickly, you could wind up in some remote 're-education' camp...
