John McCain, "who, despite the hype, doesn't seem to know as much about foreign affairs as they want us to believe!
McCain recently talked at length about problems on the "Iraq/Pakistan border" - the countries are a thousand miles apart. Asked how to deal with Darfur, he mused about "bringing pressure on the government of Somalia". Uh - it's Sudan, Senator McCain. And he keeps expressing his desire to build up US relations with Czechoslovakia, a country that hasn't existed for 15 years." These statements are not made by a man knoweledgeable about foreign affairs!
Those of us who care deeply about the Truth need to debunk this myth that John McCain is knowledegeable about foreign affairs, because it is another lie they want us to swallow. Just because McCain spent five years (5) as a POW prisoner, does not make him an expert on foreign affairs, what it does make him an expert on is on how to survive as a prisoner. Let us not be fooled again, because saying its so, does not make it so.
McCain is not only confused about how many homes he owns, he is also confused about foreign affairs --Supposedly his Strong Point!
John McCain, "a Republican presidential candidate who, despite the hype, doesn't seem to know much about foreign affairs. McCain recently talked at length about problems on the "Iraq/Pakistan border" - the countries are a thousand miles apart. Asked how to deal with Darfur, he mused about "bringing pressure on the government of Somalia". Uh - it's Sudan, Senator McCain. And he keeps expressing his desire to build up US relations with Czechoslovakia, a country that hasn't existed for 15 years. " Unfortunately, we are not getting this pertinent information about a candidate for the Presidency, the highest office in the land, from our Republican-owned media, which is a derelict of their duty.
And, also "If someone can't keep track of their personal finances -- for example, can't even say how many homes they own -- should they really be in charge of our whole nation's finances?" (Gordon Fischer)
However, this is more than McCain just being out of touch. This is about competency, because McCain has made many misstatements and gaffes which are not reported by the media, which would show and also highlight just not McCain's Confusion but also his Age!
Republicans never play Fair and you can expect nothing from them except lies, deceipt and deception! The proof is in John McCain's current ads which border on religious fantasies and childish cartoons (not to be Believable) and are not indicative of the Real World and possibly Schizophrenic! They act as if they are communicating with Children instead of Adults! And that's an insult to many over the age of 18 who want real facts and solutions not cartoonish schizophrenic communication delivered to them as if they are mindless pups! Does the McCain Camp really think the American people are childish and gullible! That is so disrespectful to the advancement of the American people today in the great strides they have made in education and mind building which shows he is definitely out of touch as to where the American people are today -- The American people are growing up.
It is a sad landmark of where the McCain Camp is that a man (McCain) who espouses to be the most powerful leader in the planet seeks to convince us of his fitness for office with images of Paris Hilton and Moses being used (by inference) to demean his opponent!
CNN has begun to air Barack and McCain in their own words at various campaign speeches and town hall meetings, which is really educational and informing. Unfortunately, MSNBC only seems to like to keep the controversy going or show dueling campaign ads -- bones as compared to meat. We are tired of being used and treated like children. I turn off MSNBC and watch CNN who treats us like the adults that we are!
As for Joe Scarborough and his morning show, it is becoming very biased again and unprofessional now that he is back from his hiatus with many comments that border on deceit, lies, racism and distortion. Barack Obama can do no right, he cannot even exercise for an hour and a half because Most Americans do not do that. Get a grip Joe, Americans are exercising and taking a lot better care of theirselves than you think! We, the American people deserve a lot better than the biased dribble coming out of Joe Scarborough's slyly, deceitful mouth who cares nothing for the American people. For him, it is all about Republican goals and agenda, which have not done anything for the growth of the American way. Joe, can you for once put the American people's concerns before your own selfish agendas for the Republican brand?
Barack's speech is such a different message and vision than the one we have had for the last 8 years built on greed, fear and war. It is the complete opposite. It was a message for the 21st Century and for the survival of the Planet -- of Earth. A world where we celebrate each other based on the fact that we are all on this planet together. And that as a species of planet earth, we will not survivie if we continue to war with each other, especially with the atomic and nuclear weapons available to us today!
Barack's message and vision (for without a vision, a man/nation/world perishes) is based on the oneness of Humanity and our shared and common goals -- that we are, all of earth's people, in this together and that we live in a Global Society. And, it was based on the dynamic and healing energy of love and goodwill toward each other; that we are not alone and without hope for a better world in this country and araound the world. And, it was based on the premise that there should be a freedom from fear and want everywhere in the world and that only united and understanding of one another can we build a better world for all.
What a great vision for us a people to aspire too, especially for the young teenagers and adults and the children of the world. Gives them something to look forward to other than endless years of war and hate based on geological differences, color or religious affiliation and because no matter what the outward color, inwardly, the blood of each of us, is all One Color, red! The large crowd in Germany signifies to the fact that people hunger for truth and for a message of hope and inspiration, for inspirational leaders!
Barack has shown again that he is indeed inspirational, a great healer/teacher/leader! Is it not great that we are talking about peace and unity for a change? Our common humanity? That speaks a lot in itself.
It is unintelligent to think that we are not interdependent and that what goes on in one part of the world, effects us All! Barack generated a lot of powerful and healing energy throughout the world. We must not loose it because critics say he is not yet President. However, as a man of God, he is a servant of the world, and because he loves America and Peace, these things had to be said to stimulate the vision that we can have peace here, right here on earth!
Below is an interesting article from About.com Molly's Astrology Blog on David Icke and his quest to bring knowledge to people in regards to the manipulation of the world's political system by a group of elite people. He also has a website that goes in to many of these issues at length.

"'David Icke and Heart Intelligence
Wednesday July 9, 2008
"We constantly confuse the limits of our perception of what is possible, with what is actually possible." David Icke
My own quest to dig ever deeper below the surface of what's presented as "reality" these days has hit perceptual roadblocks. One of them was David Icke, a British professional athlete turned sportscaster turned full time mystic and researcher of the global conspiracy. Since the early 90s, he's been trying to warn the world about the Illuminati and other secret societies, that is interwoven with reptilian bloodlines now part of a hidden controlling power. Some of this dark magic, with an end goal of a New World Order (the one that Bush Sr. mentioned in his speeches), he says, happens in realms beyond this dimension. My initial reaction was to say, "No, that's not possible." And yet, I've had enough breakthroughs of awareness, and wrestling with dark spiritual entities (on other realms), to have the wisdom to know there's much I don't know. It reminds me of what Shakespeare wrote in Hamlet, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
David Icke used to be the laughing stock of Britain, but not anymore. Now he speaks to standing room only crowds (see film from July 6th below). If you're looking at the astrology, Pluto's final visitation of Sagittarius, allows for a probing, into the depths look at the hidden layers of knowledge, and what is perceived as true. Here's a guy whose many predictions have come to pass, and who speaks freely and with great moral conviction. My sense is that many minds are opening, as thinking people ask themselves what kind of agenda is motivating our leaders, 'cause it sure isn't peace, love and harmony. Who is pulling the strings? Why do Presidents, as actors on the world stage, have trouble remembering their lines? Why are they rushing to war, and so willing to use fear, propaganda and control against us?
And why are governments (in the U.K. and U.S.) moving toward a Big Brother society so quickly? There's a dark, stealthy documented plan by the military to "fight the Net," and treat unauthorized knowledge like an enemy of the state. Along with today's legalization of warrantless eavesdropping, this envelops us in the shadowy, paranoia-inducing (Neptune) world of technology (Aquarius), used without consciousness. These slow, but significant changes threaten not only our right to speak freely without fear, but also the Internet itself as a portal to knowledge.
David Icke has been connecting those dots of alliances that meld trans-national corporate cartels and the mega rich, with hidden occult-otherworldly societies for decades. Even though his ideas go into territory beyond the physical dimension, he says his work has been grounded in knowledge-seeking the old-fashioned way. "I've not been sitting in a dark room smoking weed and pulling it out of the ethers -- it's come from hard, journalistic research," he says. He's not only got mind blowing things to say, but he's like a standup comedian that is in awe of what's considered reality by so many. His Pluto in Sadge quest for truth, which has taken him through dark periods of isolation, is coming to dramatic, redeeming fruition. He has had the courage to go deep into the Underworld (Pluto) and has returned with wisdom to share with the collective. True to light-hearted, yet fiercely determined form, he says that by now, only a coincidence theorist would Not be able to see that there's a method to this madness."'
Main Stream Media continue to distort the real facts of Hillary's so-called impressive wins in West Virginia, Kentucky and some parts of Pennsylvania -- a False Victory, in part due to Rush Limbaugh's "operation chaos"! This area is heavily populated with Republican conservative voters who would not vote for Hillary in the general if she was to become the Democratic nominee, something the cable news stations know due to their exit polls, but have failed to point out to the unsuspecting public. Once again they fail to tell the people the whole truth. I wonder why?
However, women who are Hillary supporters who choose not to Vote for Barack will be complicit in seeing their sons and daughters, nieces and nephews, husbands and fathers go off to a war that might last a 100 years!
might be complicit in helping to elect judges that will put an end to Roe. v. Wade....
might be complicit in not getting the college aid their sons or daughters will need for an affordable higher education... or possibly themselves if they choose to go back to school!
might be complicit in not finding solutions for global warming... and failing to be a good steward of the Earth...
all issues women with intelligence and foresight care very deeply about.
This despite Hillary and her surrogates who continue to fuel a racial and gender divide, something which does nothing to serve the common good!
Karl Rove is called a "political wizard". However, Senator Obama will expose Rove and the GOP as Wizards (as in Oz) --illusionary figures masquerading behind a curtain of Deceit! The Republican Pretenders are skilled in rituals of smoke & mirrors -Experts in Demonizing and Belittling thier opponents through smear and distortion . We, the American people, are tired of their trickery's and lies based on illusionary fear-mongering and not fact, and like the Wizard of Oz, when the curtain is pulled back by "the light of truth", they will be exposed as the fakers and the pretenders that they are -- with loud, silver-tounged voices filled with vinegar and no Real Power -- pulling strings of "make believe" to coverup their own innate weakness and Experienced villainy, an In-Experience and Naivite that Barack lacks. This unveiling will enable us to finally get off this merry-go-round -- this "yellow-brick-road" of illusion and deceit perpetrated upon the American public by these ShapeShifters and Betrayers of the Public Good.
This massed negativity has been a real detriment to American economic progress and peace in Iraq. Such pretenders and shapeshifters are like a millstone around the neck of humanity, crippling true effort. They proclaim Family Values, yet do nothing but impede true progress while the American way-of-life is dying. Any bills offered by Democrats which will benefit the American families, the GOP votes NO! This massed, organized negativity has been what has enabled them to work so ruthlessly with power and success at the destruction of all that has attempted to get in the way of their projects, desires and greed. They refuse to recognize that humanity can solve its problems without aggression and force and instead use the energy of goodwill and diplomacy, sharing and cooperation.
If you disagree with the Pretenders' politics, however, (I do not say policies for they lack true policies) in unison they attack by subterfuge, distortion and lies to disquise their true intent --the control of money and power for the GOP family only (so much for family values). Masters in fear mongering and shapeshifting, they hope to incite fear in an unsuspecting and gullible American public and to get them to embrace thier plans out of fear and against their own common sense and good judgment! Only this time, we will dispell this Illusion and not be fooled again by these "fakers, con-artists and Pretenders", and our united House, born out of need and true change, will withstand the onslaught of this False, now Fleeting Wind that has devastated the American way of life, no more; their House of Cards are Falling!

We should recall what Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill wrote in position 8 after World War II in The Atlantic Charter, both who knew and were familiar with the horrors of war....
Position "Eighth, they believe that all of the nations of the world, for realistic as well as spiritual reasons must come to the abandonment of the use of force. Since no future peace can be maintained if land, sea or air armaments continue to be employed by nations which threaten, or may threaten, aggression outside of their frontiers, they believe, pending the establishment of a wider and permanent system of general security, that the disarmament of such nations is essential. They will likewise aid and encourage all other practicable measures which will lighten for peace-loving peoples the crushing burden of armaments."
Franklin D. Roosevelt
