Jamie, an old friend of mine said that “Your real talent is that things jump out at you that other people don’t even notice.”
In the article about us that you cite in the Village Voice — which, by the way, contained far too few references to ME — I note the following comment about YOU:
“Radio broadcasting is one of the many odd skills he (Kelso) has acquired over a lifetime of being on the fringe of society …”
This was in the Village Voice, right? The one that brags it is BEYOND societal opinion, right? It’s RADICAL, right?
But KELSO is put down because he has spent “a lifetime of being on the fringe of society.”
That is a pretty blatant statement that jumps out at me and nobody else NOTICES, YOU have spent “a lifetime of being on the fringe of society.”
Where has the Village Voice been all that time?
Certainly not, like you, “on the fringe of society.”
No way. The Village Voice is an integral PART of today’s society. Respectable conservatives constitute one group that gets paid for its standard and packaged (S&P) crap, and the Village Voice is another S&P wing.
Kelso, on the other hand, is “on the fringe of society.” No one but me would NOTICE how strange it sounds for The Village Voice to condemn someone for being REALLY on the fringe of society, as opposed to their FAKE — and lucrative — version.
Jamie, the Village Voice has condemned you — let me repeat it once more — for “being on the fringe of society.”
Is anybody CAPABLE of noticing the irony but me?

Ah yes, phony dissidents betrayed by their own words. Good shot, Bob. Village Voice indeed. They should be embarrassed to show their smarmy visages in public.

Linder quotes Chuck Pearson, who gave me the Decoder Ring that explained so much of the Substance behind American politics, and allowed me to ignore the Form that creates so much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Pearson said, “Jews don’t take just one side of an issue; Jews take ALL sides of an issue, so that whatever the outcome, it is Good For Jews.”
The creation of False Flags, and Controlled Opposition, has gone a long way to insure Jewish Supremacy in politics; how wonderful to watch your Racial Enemies waste their irreplaceable time chasing their tails like puppies, which is my metaphor for Ron Paul’s supporters.
I remember when The Revolution of the late Sixties was well underway, and I came across a glossy, full-color magazine at the college bookstore called RAMPARTS.
I remember thinking, “How Odd! Rich people with a lot of money for good, full-color photography and literate writers, and spending fortunes to inform the rest of us what the Revolution is all about, and What We Should Do to further it. Isn’t it wonderful of the Elite, to tell the Workers at the barricade how to overthrow the Elite…”
I told my girlfriend of the time that I would not be able to attend any further campus “political consciousness raising” events with her, as something just didn’t add up.
These many years later, I will not be attending any Ron Paul events, either, because THIS generation does not seem to realize that political systems abhor vacuums, and the power vacuum left by the absence of Government will be filled with Corporations, where it is profitable, and anarchy, where it is not.
And NOBODY lets such power fall from their hands willingly.
They CAN allows a Revolution SEEM to succeed, knowing that, when it fails, the Counter-Revolution will come in with a different Facade, and accomplish the purposes that Real Power could not begin to fulfill under the Old Order.
Clinton, for example, took a thoroughly repudiated Congress, called them back into session, and passed NAFTA; the Coordinating Bodies that NAFTA legitimized have since expanded into the foundations of the Security and Prosperity Partnership, which is now sponsoring Triumvirates, annual Mock Parliaments at the American University, just as high schools throughout America send delegates to model United Nations at elite colleges…
Ron Paul counts as a materful “Useful Idiot,” who is laying the foundation for the soft destruction of America, the only country wealthy enough to afford such folly.
His followers are simply using him as a proxy for “None Of The Above.”
His supporters seems to be doing an excellent job of funding his campaign; how odd, seeing as most of the Libertarians of my acquaintance are more interested in practicing low-scale hedonism, in the name of a political philosophy, than working, much less sending money (they are usually broke) to a Ron Paul campaign.

Kelso on the fringe, how politically incorrect of him to be so bold and daring. The Village Voice views Kelso as a rouge member of the media unwelcomed by the so called mainstream establishment, it is not what kelso had to say that mattered but rather how he was getting his message out.

Yes, some others notice too. I remember figuring out the value (to his masters) of blowhard Ru$h L1mbaugh: he appeals to his audience as a mighty opposition, without their realising it is a FAKE opposition (Ru$h knows well what side his matzoh is buttered on). But I too listened to him for years before I figured it out.
