  • message board comment responding to an interesting bit of information from Michael Ruppert and the decisively deviant folks at http://fromthewilderness.com/index.html :

    I can assure you that I am, in fact, very real. Opinions stated by you and others are not only damaging to folks interested in logical debate, but most importantly to intelligence as it is estimated.

    It is obviously understandable that you, me and all the rest are pawns in a corporate shell game boasting net profits for very few. It is equally obvious that these United States promote this game with the [autistic] audacity of a lunatic carney...relentlessly pointing and enticing with never a mention of outcome. Money and people are increasingly expendable; one in the same.

    What isn't understandable is the profanity you and others here in this neo-choice forum [license] to lament in the name of hegemony. Your tiny space is all you have. Nothing more. I would hope you use it wisely.

    Mr. Ruppert's ideas are no less valid or representative than yours or mine. What separates, however, is the willingness in which he chooses to express an objection to what most consider inarguable. Sad.

    Finally, I do read books. Many. One such book contains an essay from another American ex-pat spook ending something like this:

    "...because there is no cosmic point to the life that each of us perceives on this distant bit of dust at galaxy's edge, all the more reason for us to maintain in proper balance what we have here. Because there is nothing else. No thing. This is it. And quite enough, all in all."

    -Gore Vidal, United States; Essays 1952-1992; Originally published in The Observer (London), November 15, 1987
