April 20, 1789 marks the birth of the US Presidency as George Washington, the Father of Our Country, took the first Oath of Office...and they've been doing it regularly ever since.
In fact, we have a few folks squabbling back'n'forth over who will take the next Oath in 2009. Wanting to join that exalted list, I imagine.
Talk about modern! Did you know that George Washington has a blog all his own?
Amazingly, it's very well done for such an old fella!

Bush-Cheney: the threat that's out of control

MPs warn against US attack on Iran:
A military strike against Iran is unlikely to succeed and could provoke a violent backlash across the region, MPs have warned. The Commons foreign affairs committee urged the Government to use its influence with Washington to persuade the US administration to "engage" diplomatically with the Iranians over their nuclear programme.#
You mean someone has influence with the Bush-Cheney 1% gang?
Since when does it do any good to negotiate with pyschopaths?
You know when my generation demanded we leave Vietnam, Cheney and those like him thought we were wrong. And when Bush coup'd the White House the first time, I prayed that another generation of young Americans wouldn't be done as my generation had been done in the 60s and 70s by our own government.
And yet it has happened again and now--now some of the same neocons want to bomb yet another target as if more suffering of innocent people matters for nothing....it's "success" at any cost and too bad for anyone who gets in their way. Protect America is their excuse for the mayhem and misery they cause so rashly and zealously.
It's only Capitol Hill Theater, dahling!
And it makes me heartsick to think that NO ONE in Washington can or will stop these outlaws who consider themselves above every law of man and not subject to God's laws as mere mortals.
Yet I assert that while they may temporarily cheat judgment on earth, there is one authority they will not cheat, in spite of what they profess to believe within their secret brotherhoods and societies of whatever stripe with which they choose to cavort.
As these men have changed the voice and tone of America and perverted her mission in the world, her social fabric is being rent into need, want, and loss, while the radical reformers have grown even more brazen and craven.
And if the good people of Iran should find themselves in the line of fire of these men, they will speak out against a wayward nation that was forged in freedom from oppression, yet is no longer willing to trod the higher path of the common good--not here, not anywhere. Only the American people can make a difference--but will we?
The simple fact that an imperialist government can pretend to "spread freedom" through violence is enough reason for someone with influence to put a stop to their hubris and the crime spree that has gone on far too long for lack of an ability to admit that they are mere men and thus fallible as are the rest of us.
You can't sit down with madmen, you can't negotiate with killers, they'll tell you. Seems they know themselves rather well.
So my question is: how in the world will British MPs get across their reasonable, cautionary advice to men such as these?

Noam Chomsky: media plays the game
The media want to maintain their intimate relation to state power. They want to get leaks, they want to get invited to the press conferences. They want to rub shoulders with the Secretary of State, all that kind of business. To do that, you've got to play the game, and playing the game means telling their lies, serving as their disinformation apparatus. -Noam Chomsky
Here are some natal details on Chomsky, and this recent post concerns America's backing of Israel and the upcoming Saturn-Uranus opposition, a cycle which began with their conjunction in 1988 and which was triggered by Dec 2007's Great Jupiter-Pluto Conjunction.

Waxman explains missing money
"While vast sums of money are being siphoned off into hidden [military] coffers, America's schools, hospitals and public services are facing cutbacks and closures." - Rep Henry Waxman~
~~~
In Reply to a fair request for link or source for the above quote:
Rep Henry Waxman's quote was culled from a news alert sent me by Information Clearing House and I'm not certain from where they snagged it or when it was stated.
But I like the fact that it's a simple and direct statement concerning the renting of our social fabric which, imho, is no accident but is being perpetrated by a design of several years. One may remember Newt Gingrich of the 90s who never met an entitlement program he liked unless it was on behalf of corporate America.
Waxman's statement is not, however, the full explanation of where the money is being rabbit-holed, yet it addresses an integral part of the plan to bankrupt America...which is proceeding nicely, perhaps you'll agree. jc
~~~
And then there's this:
The True Cost Of War
By Aida Edemariam
In 2005, a Nobel prize-winning economist began the painstaking process of calculating the true cost of the Iraq war. In his new book, he reveals how short-sighted budget decisions, cover-ups and a war fought in bad faith will affect us all for decades to come.

Mar 7: Mars opposes Pluto at World Points
Setting the chart for Washington DC, the upcoming opposition between Mars 00Can58 and Pluto 00Cap58 occurs from 3:35 am est until 4:45 am est, March 7, 2008.
The combo of Mars/Pluto is full of extreme force, persuasion, and excessive effort, and may have elements of brutality and ruthlessness to it.
Their last opposition in late Gem/Sag occurred in early April, 2006, so we may see issues resurfacing from that time period. Then the oppo was Mutable, now it will be Cardinal, a different type of energy...the first, changeable, the second initiating.
And for 2008, their opposition is occurring directly upon the World Points of the Cancer/Capricorn axis, aka the security and parental axis.
Events seem to manifest on the world stage when these Points are stimulated (as with 00Aries/00Lib); this axis also relates to business, law, politics--and to the domestic scene, and perhaps to oceans (Cancer, the Crab.)
Natural disasters cannot be ruled out here, for explosive Mars/Pluto contains massive amounts of power which must manifest somewhere.
And the March 7th Mars/Pluto opposition will be squaring the US natal Mc/Ic axis, if you don't mind using the US 'Sibly' chart for July 4, 1776, 5:10 pm lmt...not a comforting thought, is it?
One association of Mars/Pluto is people disabled in war , and another is piece-workers being paid overtime. (Ebertin.) Sports figures also relate to the Mars/Pluto combination, as well as zealots and fanatics. Those come on all sides.
Plus, one doesn't like to mention the N word in this context, but Nuclear energy may be on the menu, hopefully only as a discussion topic--but just as likely as a threat or a shady backroom deal.
The March 7 chart set for Washington has the opposition beginning with Pluto in 12th house of behind-the-scenes, and Jupiter 16Cap41 rising--one degree before the NWO degree, "18Cap" where the Great Uranus/Neptune Conjunction occurred in Oct 1993 with its "smug and strong-armed paternalism."
And during the hour and 10 minutes of this aspect, the plutocratic Pluto/Chiron midpoint rises.
Secrets?
Mars opposite Pluto will be happening during the Balsamic phase of the Moon--the dark phase when shenanigans can be hidden from view, yet somehow portents seem to indicate that Mars/Pluto wants to be known upon the world stage.
Yes, March 7, 2008 will be here quicker than a nuclear-powered bunny, so I'm wishing safety for the whole world, because most people are decent and kind, and know that violence is never the answer, and is only useful for opening the world's uglier cans of worms. Haven't we had our craws full of that?

Eclipses of 2008 = 1990's Eclipses
2008's Solar Eclipse Series are repetitions of the ones from 1990. Check out the article with its list of events from 1990 because we may be dealing with same or similar issues this year.
We're now in the 10 North Series from Feb 6 which conjuncts the Unmasking degree, plus, the 10 South Eclipse is on the horizon for Aug 1 at "10Leo"--and this is the Prenatal Eclipse Series of John McCain which may be perfect timing for the November elections for Senator McCain.
So have any of your own masks been slipping lately? Perhaps it's a good thing!

Hot off the paw: Cat from McCain
Cat from McCain has just been published at Lim's Limericks where felines have political opinions of their own--and usually in limerick form.
Can there be truth in bad poetry? Can limericks unshield political claws and paws? Lim says, yes. Plus, we may as well make fun of them--they make fun of us all the time.

Obama's campaign rhetoric on NAFTA
Not to fret, Canada, Barack Obama's ramped-up criticisms of NAFTA are not to be taken at face value because they're only campaign rhetoric.
Is this a case of a political thespian having his cake and eating it 2? Natch!
Our current 'Unmasking Eclipse' season is proving a real workhorse with the unveiling, isn't it?
Methinks the thespian's mask slippeth mightily...

Bush press conference #41 2.28.08
Just got done watching Bush on TV, his 41st press conference which began at 10:05 am est, ended 10:52 am, White House Press Room.
Here are his demands (all the following words have "more" in front of them):
drilling, refinery-building, corn, spying, and war.
The US is NOT heading into recession and quelle surprise! he didn't know experts were predicting $4 per gallon gas to come (upshot: he avoids commenting on a difficult subject.)
When asked if he's concerned that a sagging economy will defeat John McCain as it defeated his father in 1992, Bush willingly confessed his concern for American workers.
What good news! I did not know this. An elitist is concerned about the average American worker! Who knew?
He went on to tout that our checks will be in the mail the 2nd week of May, but if you request yours electronically, you'll be rollin' in dough the 1st week of May. Then his advice is: spend and consume. (Your shopping spree will be all too brief.)
During the press conference an apt midpoint was on the Midheaven, the Goal/Aspiration/WHY? Point of the chart:
Jupiter/Neptune = Mc: a visionary; fortune hunter; spend-thrift; speculator; harm or damage through thoughtlessness.
By conference's end (10:52 am) another midpoint had happily taken the place of spendtrift Jupiter-Neptune...
Jupiter/Uranus = Mc: optimism; fortunate powers of adaptibility; a good understanding of things; a fortunate turn; comfortably becoming known for who one is (uh-oh--is the "Unmasking Eclipse" about to out some secret motives?)
When Bush was asked to give "advice" to struggling Americans, Pluto 00Cap51 was conj 8th cusp of Other People's Money/Debt/Insurance/Credit 00Cap22.
His advice? Keep the tax cuts permanent. Yeah, I feel better already--as long as I can avoid filling my car's gas tank.
You may wish to see my article on the Reaganomics Eclipse of 1981, if you haven't. It's conj Bush's natal Ascendant, the man himself..."A Bolshevik propagandist."
Now--did Bush have a wee nip before this morning's performance? He was on the slurry side. Evidence? Asteroid Bacchus conjunct the morning's Sun 9Pis24 (Pisces is the sign of negative escapism...alcohol and other drugs. I'm just noting.)
All through the press conference and into the day is a Mutable T-square between the Sun/Saturn opposition that points toward the Moon in Sagittarius which is out-of-bounds (as is Mars)...
Sun/Saturn = Moon: feeling inferior, hurt; personal needs under wraps; fear.
On one level, the Moon-r-us, but also represents Bush who is, I hear, one of the people. And he's the one on display and grabbing publicity (Moon) while he can.
Let's see what Bil Tierney in his Dynamics of Aspect Analysis says about an apex Moon in a Mutable T-square...
this Moon acts from a defensive pose, feels threatened, security is all-important; unstable due to misunderstood impressions from the past; emotionally touchy and high-strung.
Guess I can see why he may have wanted a wee nip.
Well, Bush began speaking during a Venus Hour, ended during a Mercury Hour with asteroid MIDA$ rising. And there was a second midpoint combo at Mc when he began which may tell much of the tale and the main reason for this performance this morning...
Sun/Pluto = Mc: striving for power and control; consciousness of purpose/objective; leadership; vocational crisis or upset and change to adopt new perspectives; violence with emotional consequences; power games with important consequences.
According to Bush, the important consequences refer to keeping the American people safe, but his past lies and deceits would indicate otherwise--that the Senate intell bill he so richly implores Congress to pass NOW is primarily meant to cover his own and his comrades' patooties--and to veil which activists AND politicians they've been spying on in Congress!
Our nation's political institutions in Washington DC are run on money, sex, and blackmail--and not necessarily in that order.
Yes, The Eye is watching its denizens from atop the pyramid and if the privacy rights of the rest of us get in the way, it's a small price to pay for permanent control and dominance. Seems the inmates have taken over the asylum and Bush is drinking again.
Oh! I almost forgot another thing Bush taught me during today's info-promoting Disseminationg phase of the Moon--dreamy-eyed Vladimir Putin is still a great leader.
Now you know Bush is in his own little world to say that!
Here are his demands (all the following words have "more" in front of them):

'Reaganomics' has its own Solar Eclipse
Whew! It took longer than expected--and I do plead guilty to composing at keyboard (with Jupiter oriental I prefer spontaneity in work scenarios) but my Reaganomics Eclipse Page is up now at Jude's Threshold if you'd care to peek.
Yes, it's a bit of a walk down memory lane from the 1980s--except that its sorriness is still causing trouble in 2008.
The article is one of the "to be cont'd" kind, which is why I published it on WordPress as a Page.
Enjoy the 'voodoo'!

RNC: no White House emails for you!
Promises, Promises!
News Updates from Citizens For Legitimate Government Feb 27 2008

GOP Halts Effort to Retrieve White House E-Mails 27 Feb 2008:
After promising last year to search its computers for tens of thousands of e-mails sent by White House officials, the Republican National Committee has informed a House committee that it no longer plans to retrieve the communications by restoring computer backup tapes, the panel's chairman said yesterday.
The move increases the likelihood that an untold number of RNC e-mails dealing with official White House business during the first term of the Bush administration--including many sent or received by former presidential adviser Karl Rove--will never be recovered, said House Democrats and public records advocates.#
Ethics-challenged, promises meaningless, the GOP and their enablers obviously have a huge amount to hide in these "missing" emails, don't they?
From walking out in yet another planned huff, to defying the American people in order to protect Bush-Cheney-Rove (and their own patooties), Repubs have had hard hard werk to do of late, and as I've asked before: who exactly graduated from those mea culpa congressional "ethics classes" again? (For that matter, who taught them?!)
Guess their "promise" to fork over what was ordered by law has served its delaying purposes, hasn't it? Justice delayed is justice denied.
On a slightly different note: at the moment I'm preparing to publish on the Reganomics Eclipse of 1981 at Jude's Threshold so check there in my Sidebar soon--hope to have it on the Pages list no later than 8:00 pm est.
If ya loved the AIDies, or are partial to trickle down/voodoo economics, this is the Eclipse chart for you.
Did you know that Reagan's natal Sun is at the "A Man Unmasked" degree?
