Is Daniel Webster in Iowa tonight?

"...There is no nation on earth powerful enough to accomplish our overthrow...

Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence, I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants, and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men, and become the instruments of their own undoing."

Daniel Webster, June 1, 1837


Thanks for above quote to: Information Clearing House

Hopefully Daniel may rest easy tonight for Iowans are not of that ilk as they make our First Decisions this evening. Yet "dupes of designing men" has become the definition of politics, that system of organized hatreds.

And on a lighter note, here is a little political cat rhymery in honor of the occasion, with prediction thrown in...compliments of Lim the Cat!

'Iowa' as meowed by Lim the Cat

US Constitution and Daniel Webster

A reminder from Information Clearing House:

"Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster and what has happened once in 6,000 years, may not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world."

Daniel Webster (1782-1852), US Senator - 1851#


A reminder from SO'W:

Daniel Webster died in office as Secretary of State, Oct 24, 1852. He also said:

"I was born an American, I will live an American, and I shall die an American."


Personally I would appreciate having the same privilege. Constitution-underminers begone!


Here's a Daniel Webster bio of this premiere orator of his day who:

"...convinced the majority of people that the government created by the Constitution was not a league, but a Union, and had all the powers necessary to its maintenance and preservation."

May the North American 'Union' agenda begone!


March 27, 2007: Solar Arc Directions of US Constitution natal chart:

S.A Pluto to n Sun: Powerful force creates major change; identity change; sudden prominence.

Exact in about 6 months: S.A. Pluto 24Vir11/n Sun 24Vir39, conj "25Vir": "A flag at halfmast in front of a public building": RESPECT...

pos: achievement in a full transcedence of selfhood;

neg: superficial self-dramatization.

Marc Edmund Jones goes on to explain: "Reputation is the subtle coin by which personality creates an enduring wealth for everyone."


"A flag at halfmast" suggests grief for a passing, a "public building" suggests to me the nation, and the "reputation" is that of the United States of America for her (supposed?) idealism and liberty and which may be symbolized by the Constitution itself; and "enduring wealth for everyone"?

The Bushies and the rest of the elite ruling class aren't interested in that one.

It's up to the people. Solar Arc Mars will be conjuncting n Pluto 14AQ12 in a year or so...

S.A. Mars to n Pluto: extreme force; brutality; control; excessive effort.

And it's only excessive effort that will turn this ship around in spite of their brutality. Otherwise? We're sunk, m'peops. So it's all hands on deck, maties!
