I don't know.

I don't know. Most of the events in our world are a mystery to me. Does anyone know for a fact all possible outcomes of anything?

Someone I know wrote; "All Republicans love war." on a facebook wall.

I never thought of this person as a bigot before but that statement was ugly and stupid. My mother is a Republican and I know she doesn't love war. This made made me think of my own ugly and stupid words that I have said or written. I then wrote the " I Bigot" post.

I think my own answer to most political debate is "I don't know."

Why Not Sue Me?

If I have slandered you or libeled you, why don't you sue me? Why do you hide behind mountains of money like cowards afraid of a few words on a blog? I'm sure you could win in court just as I'm sure that someday you'll censor this post.

You own the police, the media and the courts. Is your house of cards so fragile that a few words on a blog could be a danger to you?

I would believe that this is just a paranoid fantasy that I created in my own imagination but your actions keep proving the truth of a few words on a blog.

To the man that tried to put me in prison on false assault charges, I still bank at one of the banks owned by your family.

To the man that owns the property a city landmark sits on and can no longer get as much corporate welfare as he once did, I still buy your holiday products.

To the woman that may or may not have had two union goons chase me across the city of my birth, I still believe in unions.

Why not sue me?

Winks

The first flag of Winks made out of poster board.



The forming of a Micro Nation is a silly thing and I feel I have captured that moment of stupid power mad ego with the above photo. In that moment of devine creative spirit I came up with the name of my mighty nation and the future flag of a not so great super powerless. I am the only citizen of Winks but I have high hopes as I have named my country Winks and not Wink.

Our motto is; We believe in everything but not at the same time!

More Flags of Micro Nations

Why all the silly flags? I'm writing a scene that is a parody of the United Nation and I didn't want to use Macro Nations. All the flags of Micro Nations will be made into parody flags.

I want to be a Micro Nation

The above images are all the flags of Micro Nations I could find in 30 minutes. I've decided to start my own Micro Nation for fun and will be posting my Micro Nation flag next week.

The End Of Politics

I'm tired of bribe merchants calling themselves leaders. Why can't we be the leaders of the world and put an end to elite rule by rich aristocrats in corrupt city-states? We have the technology and you are using it as you read this.

Darfur

I believe the United States of America should let any members of the non-Arab Fur, Zaghawa and Masalit ethnic groups from Sudan legally immigrate to this country of my birth. As there is wars enough in this world I believe this is the only solution to the current holocaust.

World-State

This post was inspired by a comment made by Lynda Lehmann in my post The Power of Peace

I fear a World-State (male politics) but I believe it is our only hope for survival.

I believe the current world wide pay for play must end.

Through out human history the power elite have ruled poorly. The rich-billies of the world can no longer feed us lies we'll believe. The system is broken and a new system is needed.

ONE YEAR, ONE TERM; The end of the politician as the puppet of the rich can only happen if we limit the time in office to one term a year.

FIVE YEAR LIMIT: If you serve in politics, you can only run for office between the age of 45 to 50 years old. (I'm 50, too old to run under this system) If you lose an election you can't run again that year.

NO REPEAT TERMS; At the end of your term you must run for another office or retire.

FIVE DIVISIONS OF GOVERNMENT;
1. Local
2. State
3. National
4. Global
5. Solar

WAR IS OUTLAWED; All atomic weapons are dismantled. Landmines are banned and destroyed. Tanks are dismantled. All the money once spent on war is spent on joint ventures in exploring the oceans and other planets.

MISSION TO MARS; Russia, United States of America and China send a joint mission to Mars to establish colonies on the planet for the United Nations. Its a one way trip with three married couples. As other counties send women and men into space they join the new Mars Colony.

ECOLOGY ARMIES; Whaling is banned and the worlds navies enforce the ban. All endangered wildlife is protected by wildlife armies.

More to come....

The Big Drop

As a boy I loved to ride trains. Having the best parents in the world, I got to do this many times as a child. The above photos show one of the ticket stubs from a trip from Holden Missouri to Kansas City's Union Station.

I can never set foot in Union Station Kansas City without being arrested because I dared to video tape balloons falling from the ceiling on New Years Eve 2006. I did nothing wrong but tell the truth about the management at Union Station in a movie I worked on called Begging For Billionaires.

I can never ride the rails to Union Station with my Grandchildren but on April 13th 2002 I helped rescue a young girl from a near tragic mishap on a badly designed exhibit. They can't take that away from me.

I wonder if the powers that be in Kansas City will try to censor this post? Will they try to hack my computer again? The Big Drop in ethics is something I regret seeing in my lifetime.

My Mother's Vote was Stolen

My mother's vote was stolen in the last election. Someone used my mother's name and the rest of her ID to steal her vote from Holt County Missouri. My mother lives in Johnson County Missouri.

Her vote didn't count. She was treated like a criminal and the person that stole her vote got away with it. The election was fixed in Missouri but who did the fixing and why?

Eleanor Jane Vollrath had the right to vote but now she says she'll never vote again.

To the person in Holt county that stole my mother's vote, you have my pity.

To the party that stole my mother's vote, you'll never get my vote again, unless you steal it.

Burn all the Golden Parachutes

The title says it all. Why reward failure at the highest level?

I've meet good Chief Executive Officers of companies and I've meet bad ones.

The best are the founders of their company. They are inventors and hold patents.

The worst are criminals stealing the company assents as they receive huge bonuses.

Pay for Play

Have you taken the bribe? I have. I've done pay for play.

Oh, my bribe was on such a small scale that I can't be compared to those bribe masters that hold seats of powers or can I? Does it matter how small the bribe is? I was a divorced single father and I needed the money. That's why I did it.

I took a $2.00 an hour raise to keep quiet about how a supervisor got his job. Pay for Play.
I played the game but we all lose when we play that game. I should have quit and never looked back.

If we are to end this system of bribery we pretend to be a form of government then we must look at what part we hold in the world wide cycle of pay for play.

Blue Green Dream

I'm a protectionist as was Abraham Lincoln.

I know next to nothing about the world of finance.

I do know that rich spoiled brats are running the world and haven't a clue how to fix the mess they created. They have built an empire of false knowledge in oceans of arrogance. They let the children of the Earth breath polluted air from the greed that owns their souls. They want a world of wage-slaves (low income workers) and sign up-slaves (volunteers that do work they should be paid) while their lust for power and money knows no bounds.

I believe in unions. They are corrupt imaginary constructions but they are less corrupt than the corporate imaginary constructions.

I believe in green technology. The polluted air is slowly killing me. I don't care about myself as much as I care about all the children of the world.

I believe in the Blue Green Dream.

How To Fix the U.S.A.

I don't know what to do. Our system of bribery is very complex and I'm sure all the experts will say I'm wrong. Well here goes nothing.

1. It's the manufacturing jobs you elitist arrogant aristocratic fools! You can't turn a whole country into a bedroom community. You must have good paying blue collar jobs to support the housing market. You can't run a country on bean counters and paper pushers. You must make something that has value. How many children half a world away will die because of pollution made from your mindless greed manifested into a reality of toxic hell?

2. Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Bribery should not be the same thing. The wealthy of the country should not decide which American can run for office. Elections should last only six weeks and all ads and travel is banned in those six weeks. A series of nightly debates plays on public radio and public television for those six weeks.

3. Term Limits for all. One term for all political offices in the United States. One year terms for all political offices in the United States. No woman or man could hold any office after five years.
The end of the career politician.

4. Change the Constitution and get rid of the Senate. The most elitist and corrupt organization in the country.

5. Create Blue Green Factories and pass a law that 80% of all goods sold in the U.S.A. are made in the U.S.A.. Blue is for Union and Green is for zero pollution. Don't believe the lies as zero pollution is possible with current technology.

6. Break up the oil companies and make all next years car models run on Compressed Natural Gas. Convert older cars to Compressed Natural Gas in five years. Run taxis on compressed air and bus lines on hydrogen fuel cells. Phase out Compressed Natural Gas in ten years and replace with hydrogen fuel cell cars.

The Great Firewall of America

Electronic lying seems to be popular among the aristocratic families of the world.

Where ever you live in world, the aristocrats rule. They want to own the Internet but they lack the imagination to capture it in any real sense. They own most of the traditional media but that media is dying a slow death. How will they control the flow of information in the future? Big lies wrapped in small sound bites? Short video clips as reality? Parades of polls without the methods of the polling? All these are in the here and now.

Do we have a Great Firewall of America? We know there is a Great Firewall of China but what if a group is monitoring our Internet activity from an USA perspective?

I first suspected this at the beginning of this year when my first five posts were removed (or censored as I see it) by Blogger for what could only be political reasons.

Then after talking to some blogger in the Middle East a map widget showed all international visits to my blog were coming from Virgina in the United States. After I commented on that fact on a blog the widget went back to normal. I took down the map widget later and haven't put one back up.

Whenever I think my blog is being hacked, I talk about it on my blog and all my problems go away the moment I put the post up.

I think we'll never know how much our writing is monitored but I'm sure it is in a limited way.

Pardon my Politics

Politics are the death of truth. I hate the concept of politics and yet I can see patterns in these vortex of lies that others are blind too. I don't care how you vote or if you vote. I will vote but with the corruption of the election process I don't know if my vote will count. Don't live in a fantasy world, both sides cheat.

I will never talk about who I vote for again. Who cares?

"Tell me who you're voting for. I won't make fun of you."

I'm tied of that lie.

Election campaigns are cesspools of emotional folly that destroy logic. We've never had a system of government in all of human history, just systems of bribery.

Please put your hate speech away because no one wants to hear about your politics.

Years ago my best subject in college wasn't art but Political Science. The head of the department asked me to change my major.

"Robert you missed half my classes, never read the text book and you still pulled a B in my class. Your a natural, don't you think you should change your major?"

"No, I hate Political Science."

I don't hate the people running for office, political parties or voters, I just hate the mind numbing process called politics.

When you care enough......

Mark my oldest son sent me this music card for Father's Day.

For three years I wouldn't buy any Hallmark cards and asked friends and family not to give me any cards made by Hallmark. The company has fine products and I now buy Hallmark products and cards but I don't like how much political power the head of the Hall's family has in the mid-west.

Note to Mark; I keep playing the card over and over again like some Star Wars geek.
Your note on the back made me laugh.

Swing Vote

I'm a swing voter. So hard to make up my mind. I don't like the rich and powerful deciding who I get to vote for. I'm down to three choices now. It would be nice if we had a system of government instead of a system of bribery. Are the elections fixed? Of course they are, so why even vote? Well I look at it this way. The back room billionaires have decided that Clinton would run against McCain and Clinton would win. I don't like the idea they can do that. So when the Oprah Political Machine came along and said here's Obama, I voted for him just because the boys in the back room didn't pick him. I can't vote for the Queen of Dirty Tricks and who wants four to eight years of dirty jokes about her husband?

Obama runs against McCain; I vote Obama.

Clinton runs against McCain; I vote McCain.

Do I think Obama will make a good President? No I don't but at least he would be my choice.

How Warm Was Your Cold War?

I've played a lot of the board game Risk, which makes me an expert in the history of the cold war. That doesn't really work does it? I grew up a mile from a missile base which gave me a lot of atomic bomb nightmares. No, I still don't have a right to write about the cold war. My father was sent to the Korea War. Well I wasn't born yet and he never saw any combat but I did watch a lot of Mash reruns with him. I remember the Cuba Missile Crisis and that church down the road wasn't going to let my family in their bomb shelter. It's not easy being part of the American Empire. Not buying that?

I guess my Cold War was nice and warm. My Father did indirectly work for the Department of Defense and The Military Nuclear Complex. Living off the milk and honey of the atomic bomb is all I know about the Cold War. Very warm and happy was my childhood with the exceptions of those atomic bomb dreams of my home getting nuked!

Next Post; Swing Vote
