I’m told that in this long diatribe that there is an attack on the “Solon”, the group of Europeans who were expelled from the Org and set up their own new think tank organization.  I suppose this is another little recent trend — Webster Tarpley was rebuffed (for private consumption at least), as you recall.  It is a tough slog to wade through this crap, but I guess that’s why we have people like “sancho“:

Until the mid-1960s, my public political role as such was all but rarely marginal, but the developments of that twenty-odd-year interval until that period of my more active role in economics-rooted political-intelligence activity since the mid-1960s, have come to show that my political commitment of the 1946-1965 interval, has turned out to have been necessary preparation for my increasingly significant role in becoming a prominent intelligence specialist during the course of the 1966-2009 interval to date.[9]

Since 1966, my associates and I have often taken abuse from those against whom I have fought for that cause. This abuse has included betrayal by those who, after they had descended to levels below the rank of former friends, went over to the adversary camp, out of such apparent motives as fear, greed, pleasure in perversion, or a combination from among such impulses—although I had done actually nothing of which anyone could justly say I should be ashamed in carrying forward the intention which I had adopted in Spring 1946. Such defections are an effect, a frictional cost, to be expected in any really serious political effort.

I can only suggest that he’s talking to himself in a job of rationalizations.   But let’s play a game with this one.  Skip past the meandering preamble to the text and spell out the names.  This “essay” is like a thousand before it, and — at his advanced age I’ll say like fifty more to come.  The Lyndon Larouche Organization has identified the following as the Agents in history who have sent the World into Dark Ages in the past, and who are now bent on sending the World into a New Dark Age.  Against them does the Larouche Organization pick up their swords and battle:

British asset and Venetian financier, veteran of London’s “Young Turk” operation, Volpi di Misurata,
official British fascists’ spin-off from the Fabian Society of H.G. Wells and his ilk, John Maynard Keynes,  Britain’s Winston Churchill and Italian protege Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson second-generation products of the British-directed Confederacy’s attempt to destroy the U.S.A, both the Bank of England’s Montagu Norman and Brown Brothers, Harriman), who were leading members of the same pack from among leading Anglo-American backers of fascism, President Harry Truman, [and] the lurking fascist circles inside the U.S.A., as they have been since the riots of 1968 and the election of President Richard Nixon, until now, which has been a principal factor in world politics since the interval of London’s appointment of Napoleon III, as it had been when the British Foreign Office’s Lord Palmerston inserted his asset, as the case of former Prime Minister Tony Blair suggests that intention,  such monstrously evil men and women as George Soros and Soros’s crony, Lord Malloch Brown, the historically pro-fascist American Enterprise Institute, Amity Shlaes, in the chatter around the pair of George Shult’z frankly fascist crony Felix Rohatyn-linked Senator Christopher Dodd and Representative Barney Frank,  the world’s currently biggest and most evil dope pusher, Lord Malloch Brown’s associate, the global drug-trafficker George Soros, similar to those of the, similarly, once triumphalist, Fourteenth-Century, Lucca-based, Lombard banking-house of Bardi, would happen as did the doom of the Don Giovanni of the Mozart opera, denunciation of the frauds which underlie the specific form of that same reductionist method of Paolo Sarpi which permeates and underlies the scientific fraud which underlies all of the doctrine of both Sarpi follower Rene Descarte, in turn, is echoed by that similarly a-prioristic, mechanistic echo of Euclid, which permeates the argument of the Eighteenth-century empiricists such as Abraham de Moivre, Jean D’Alembert, Leonhard Euler, Joseph Lagrange, and, also, by such typical Nineteenth Century science-misfortunates as the devotees of Pierre-Simon Laplace, Augustin Cauchy, Rudolf Clausius, and Hermann Grassmann. The Eighteenth-century empiricists and their followers, included such as David Hume, Adam Smith, and Immanuel Kant, and, in the Nineteenth Century, Adam Smith’s avowed devotee, Karl Marx,contrary to the damaged Bertrand Russell creations John von Neumann and Professor Norbert Wiener,   the discovery which Issac Newton merely asserted, fraudulently, to be his own, a fraud which they (e.g., the Cartesians) continued, the U.S.A. can blame Arthur Burns and his (actually) pro-fascist miscreation, Milton Friedman,  the effect of the “Frankfurt School” corruption by what was known in Europe as the post-World War II Congress of Cultural Freedom, the existentialism of Martin Heidegger et al.,notable practical effect of this existentialist cult of [Martin] Heidegger, [Hannah] Arendt, et al., the malthusian legacy of Giammaria Ortes, Philip of Macedon and his Greek advisors, the influence of the systemic scientific incompetence of that follower of Paolo Sarpi known as Rene Descartes, impact of France’s Louis XIV,  leading to the replacement of the deceased Philip by Alexander the Great, had highly relevant, historically and strategically, links, by family ties, to the ancient maritime culture of a Cyrenaica which would be associated later with the great Eratosthenes, Prince of Wales Edward Albert’s circles the later Edward VII, Secretary Lansing,  Lord Palmerston’s backing of his London-created, Confederacy puppet,Prince Edward Albert, recruiting the Mikado, assassination of U.S. President McKinley, the assassination which made possible the Presidencies of two relevant sympathizers of the British-created Confederacy, Bertrand Russell’s continuation of H.G. Wells’ design for nuclear warfare, against the image of the 1782 victory of the United States in defeating Lord Shelburne’s, Jeremy Bentham’s, and American traitor Aaron Burr’s British Empire, especially since the installation of the London-oriented [Mikhail] Gorbachev regime,  operation had been steered by a leader of the Venetian intelligence service, Francesco Zorzi (aka Giorgi), an avowed enemy of the work of Nicholas of Cusa, operating within England under the cloak of marriage councillor to King Henry VIII, in concert with a Plantagenet Pretender (Cardinal Pole), Thomas Cromwell, et al.,  taken over, on a grander scale, by the founder of modern Liberalism, the Venetian Paolo Sarpi, with the assistance of his lackey, the hoaxster Galileo Galilei, to prevent the continuation of a valid form of modern science,  throw-back, in purpose, to the case of the Olympian Zeus of Aeschylus’ Prometheus Bound, Rene Descartes, and of such empiricists as Abraham de Moivre, [Jean Le Rondt] D’Alembert, and Leonhard Euler, imposed the revived lunacy of the medieval William of Ockham, form of moral depravity known as modern Liberalism, which would later culminate in the corruption expressed by Professor Norbert Wiener and John von Neumann, Edward Gibbon, Marx, all contemporary adversaries of scientific truth, such as Britain’s Duke of Edinburgh today, who heads the anti-humanist World Wildlife Fund, Euclid, followers of the British Haileybury School, Fabian Society, avowed Satanist Aleister Crowley, Thomas Huxley who had launched H.G. Wells, Aldous and Julian, and also a third case, George Orwell,  was the circle which created the cult of LSD and kindred concoctions, The cult of “information theory” was a notable offshoot of Russell’s savagely anti-humanist Principia Mathematica hoax, were the cases of the Eighteenth-century empiricists who followed the leadership of Abbé Antonio Conti and Voltaire, such as Abraham de Moivre, D’Alembert, Leonhard Euler, and Joseph Lagrange, and the latters’ Nineteenth-century devotees, such as Laplace, Augustin Cauchy, Rudolf Clausius, and Hermann Grassmann. The mechanistic cult of Ernst Mach and the more radical, the Newton cult, the fraudulent notion of a “law of entropy” proposed by such as Rudolf Clausius, Hermann Grassmann, and Kelvin,  The person who believes in “human ecology,”  Lord Shelburne,  King George I,
, projected scheme of Philip of Macedon, from (most notably) Peter the Great; and, and world empires of the maritime type illustrated by the attempt, ultimately unsuccessful, by Pericles of Athens’ launching of the Peloponnesian War; the priests of the Mithra cult and the Octavian who would be later renamed Augustus Caesar. 

Got that?  Now, against them the Larouche Organization is working the tradition of a number of sources of light that have battled these Dark Age proponents.  I would have to slug through this thing again to fill in more names (specifically cited in this “essay”), but right of the top we have:
Franklin Roosevelt, Johannes Kepler, Gottfried Leibniz, Aristotle, Abraham Lincoln, Henry C. Carey, Nicholas of Cusa, Aeschylus, Cleopatra, Marc Antony, and Percy Shelley.

On a Jehovah’s Witness board, the convergence of prophecies brings them to the writings of Larouche, and here is a matter that will not die:

Mr Larouche famed for his impressive private intellegence network has got me wondering if his people scan the web for references to thier master. Laroche has been compared to Don Quixote on this DB, not least a few times by myself. An then his people release this cartoon with a Larouchian Quixote.

Actually a bit surprising, as a Quixote would suggest a “Tilting at Windmills” that minimizes the World Historic Role in defeating Paolo Sarpi on behalf of Abraham Lincoln.  But the Larouche Organization might want to get to work in trying to get “Watchman”.  A funny note there:

The thing I find interesting is that usually during the question and answer session there are always some cowardly politicians who send in an anonymous question or two.

For this little parlor game I always cite “An anonymous question from a Midwestern Republican Senator” querying about Iraq, an obvious reference to Senator Chuck Hagel — unidentified in part because it was an item of fiction.  A week or so later I see them release a “news” item on some speech of Chuck Hagel with comments from Larouche suggesting that Chuck Hagel has endorsed the Larouche Plan in Iraq — another Lie — I was paying attention in 2003, one key tenet of the “Larouche Plan” was that the thing MUST be named “The Larouche Plan” — which was something that Chuck Hagel was not proposing.
There are almost certainly countless examples like this, but I’m sort of not paying enough attention.

Apparently Larouche once proposed a Constitution for the nation of Canada.  Dig? 

1)  The free press would face censorship.

Ҥ5.4 Rights of Persons and Associations
The development and propagation of ideas other than irrational-hedonistic incitements is the subsumed purpose of society’s activity from day to day, together with the freedom to practice attempted contributions to the improvement of society and individual condition according to moral forms of ideas. The principle governing this is efficiently illustrated by the proper view of the meaning of “free press.” Freedom to communicate ideas is constrained by the law’s abhorrence of irrational hedonistic incitements and by the authority of truth. Any statement or interpretation of fact which is publicised orally after being contrived in good faith and promulgated to some morally acceptable purpose must be a privileged ‘ statement under the law, unless it be clearly defined as irrationalist-hedonistic incitement. This must be the only standard for proceedings in libel and slander under statute and civil law. Association is governed by the same principle of privilege as public communication, on condition that the practice of that association is not criminal under law, nor a violation of constitutional law.”
2) §5.3 Morality & Law
“The criminal mind and insanity are both expressions of “infantile regression.” The criminal is the irrational hedonist who asserts actions against the law in defiance of the lawful requirement that the person order behaviour by intent to submit to dictate of a rational conscience. The insane person is one who has disassociated his or her consciousness from significant aspects of rationally ordered reality in order to assert in practice the impulses of an infantile irrational hedonism. Both expressions of irrational hedonism are to be denounced as immorality, and their effects to be contained efficiently with aid of humane efforts to rid the person afflicted with infantile regressions of domination by infantile, or by irrational hedonistic impulses and beliefs.
(…)
There is no right to expression of or cultivation of irrationalist hedonism in a constitutional republic.”
Read also this: §5.4 Rights of Persons and Associations
“The development and propagation of ideas other than irrational-hedonistic incitements is the subsumed purpose of society’s activity from day to day, together with the freedom to practice attempted contributions to the improvement of society and individual condition according to moral forms of ideas.”

Well, I’ll take a look at it sooner or later, I guess.  Surely the highlights were taken out of context and if I were to parse on through it I’d see that they’re mitigated and explained into a much more humanistic offering.  For the good people of Canada.  I may have to take down my poster of Issac Newton and burn my membership to the National Wildlife Fund in anticipation of the Larouche takeover, after they claim Canada the United States will be only a matter of time.

I jumped in on Thursday and posted on new wikipedia material, the discussion pages at wikipedia providing the most naked look at what’s in the org’s head at any given moment.   (If there were a central hub I’d link to it on the sidebar, as it is one of the four most important online souces for Larouchian undertakings — I suppose the constant renewed and renamed sock puppet duo violates “Not a Battleground”, but wikipedia by now has to understand that every interested party in every topic views this site as a “battle-ground” — more secretive and tightly vested the more … for a good battle ground viewing, see the discussion in the entry for “Prohibition Party“).  On Thursday I was not aware that the Kenneth Kronberg page has been reignited — an undertaking which needs to be understood in the context of the two bizarre interjections of the “Crime of Molly Kronberg” into unrelated items relating to a HBPA failure and Ted Stevens conviction and in context of an internal memo calling on the membership to not write bad checks.  It all starts with this bit of wikedness:

This article appears to be written mainly by Molly Kronberg, and serves as a platform for her to scapegoat the Larouche group for her husband’s death, while exonerating herself.
Skip to the end here and this a bizarre statement:
It is worth noting that Hexham knew about the Avi Klein article no later than May 16, 2007[17], six months before it was published. Keinehexen (talk) 22:55, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

If I had to bet I’d say that Keinehexen did too.   I mean, Who didn’t? 
(Again I ponder that Avi Klein does not deserve to be perpetually associated with Larouche for writing one feature.  Well, hopefully he’ll come up with something of either broad interest or intense interest to a small group [such as this one] that wills supplant it — currently the google ordering contest between the “Earnest, Young, and Owing” and “Publish and Perish” is on the latter — the previous time I checked it was on “Earnest, Young, and Owing“.  I’ll continue to check on this whenever I’m edged over to discussion of Avi Klein.)

Well, that’s enough.

In the latest wikipedia editing wars, we have a couple of new Larouche sock puppets.  Keinehexan, who I guess is actually an old sock puppet who had to add an “n”, and who apparently has a desire to violate some wikipedia protocol and good manners:

Do not post what you believe to be a real name of a Wikipedia editor who uses a pseudonym. If you do so again your account may be blocked.   Will Beback  talk  02:32, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

No, I don’t know the back-story here.  As a rule the identities of the Larouchian sock puppets are of some interest to me (though not so much names as role in the org) because it is a coordinated propaganda offensive.  The identities of wikipedia editors, by dent of being editors have earned their chops and also proven them into that relatively insane and uber-dedicated “Wiki Core”.

The current debate at wikipedia seen here show the attempt to slice the names “Jeremiah Duggan” and “Ken Kronberg” out of the article on “Lyndon Larouche”, in this case to sideline them to “Larouche Movement” — where, presumably, the Larouche Movement would swamp them with, for instance, the current on Russian television and Italian Parliament non-victories.  It appears they desire to do away with Kronberg in its entirety:

Color Me Mauve:  The other thing I would mention, having looked over the two articles (Duggan and Kronberg,) is that the Kronberg case got almost no press coverage, only a couple of minor papers

I.  Molly Kronberg on the org’s history of Forced Abortions.
  A.  an aside from old-time ex-members at factnet:  The SWP had a similar policy.  But they’re less hypocritical since they did not take that “pro-life” stance the Larouche org took during the 70s on into the 90s.  But hypocrisy remains, because “pro-choice” indicates the choice of the individual and not a central committee.  Glad to clear that up, that matter of degress of hypocrisy in 60s organizations emitted from out of the 1960s New Left. 
  B.  Two is a trend.  Molly Kronberg has been cited again, publically, in reference to criminal proceedings against a corrupt politician — this time being Ted Stevens.  I now contemplate what item of news that the L-PAC site picks up where Molly Kronberg will be referenced as part of mentioning Larouche’s criminal conviction.  Will it be in defense of another corrupt politician (Blagojevich?  Burris?  Chuck Turner in Boston?) ?  Or will it be a defeat of a HBPA measure in another municipality / state-house?
       1.  An interesting possibility for that one:  Sacramento.  Sure, there’s no mention of Larouche’s criminal conviction, but that shouldn’t be enough to stop the presumption that it was defeated because of scurrious slurs from the hands of Molly Kronberg.
           — Money quote exchange from Sacramento:
The really really freaky thing was a little exchange at the end, after supervisor Roger Dickinson explained that the Board wouldn‘t be taking immediate action on the LaRouche resolution.
LaRouchie: Do you all have cards I can get?
Dickinson: I‘m sure we all have cards you can have.
LaRouchie: You are more than me. But I will surround all of you, with your cards.
Dickinson: Hehe. Ok, thanks.

II.  Wayne Madsen has published an item, which has been picked up some Arab Press, which alleges that the state of Israel is planning on colonizing large portions of Iraq.
   A.  You have never heard of Wayne Madsen, probably, but have quite likely heard of one of his rumor/chestnuts:  President George W Bush is having an affair with Condollezza Rice, an item that saw its first printed publication in a British tabloid.
        1.  This one has held a greater hold in that “You never know / could be” section of public’s imagination that the never-ending calvacade you see in the sub-National Enquirer tabloids of photo-shopped women next to the President with a choice photograph of an expecially miffed First Lady biting her lips.
   B.  Upon seeing the “Israel wants Iraq” story, my thought was “There is a 100 percent chance that Larouche has played up one of Madsen’s more spurious claims.”
       1.  Rolling into  last summer’s Russian Government love-fest, L-PAC played up this Wayne Madsen item disclaiming Russia as the source for the poisoning of Alexandar Litvinvenko, and placing it on the British(and Israel and etc.) in an act of sabotauge against Russia.   It was a release that stood out to me amongst all the other crap I “scanned” (ahem) past, and responded with one giant “Oh!  Come on!”
     2.  I reference, unfortunately one source over because this is what I can find with immediacy, a post which originally was placed onto the website of the conservative / right-wing “Accuracy in Media” website which cites Larouche’s usage of Wayne Madsen as source material.
         a.  AIM was last seen at the CPAC Conference, charging up the “Obama’s fake birth certificate” storyline, which would have put them in league with Larouche in the Spring and Summer of 08, but now aligns them with Webster Tarpley.
            —   Referred to round about here by the Resident Larouchie as perhaps still associated with Larouche (in a weird argument against comments from Larouche) and referenced here as “a nutter”.
       b.  a rather dubious “Guilt by Association” example from AIM happened with the headline “AARP, Larouche Private Social Security Accounts”, a headline reported by me here.  Indicative of both the Larouche Organization’s desire in associating as the primary focal point to opposition to that deservably attacked policy goal, and AIM’s desire of associating the two.
     3.  Wayne Madsen has been banned from user citation at the partisan website “Democratic Underground”.  Probably just like Larouche I am betting, though that one may be more self-correcting in immediate response.  It is evident that dailykos deletes Larouche sources with imediacy — I have seen the ghosts of such postings (indeed, have posted the ghostly remains of such posts), as is the site’s stated policy of ripping away all 9/11 Truth posts.
            b.  That being said, here’s a list of some fairly respectable outlets Madsen appears in, as well not-so-respectable outlets.  Unlike, say, Lyndon Larouche, though like … um… Robert Dreyfuss.
      4.  Herein lies what damaging power the Larouche Organization has externally.  The HBPA Resolutions and handful of members of the Italian Parliament referencing “Larouche” admist a broader handful of Italian Politicos  calling for a “New Bretton Woods” (like calling for a “New New Deal”) really only factor to the org as an internal pressure — giving its membership the eternal illusion that “Things are Snow-balling”.  But the work of, for instance, propping up disinformationational conspiracy — in the case of the source of the poisoning of Litvinvenko in a play to Russia’s burgeoning nationalism– obscures the world picture.
               a.  Or, in this phraseology, “Disinformation Systems Redux or still Uber Alles”?

III. Perhaps a tap on the shoulders to that New Republic blogger who was doing a series of focuses on Robert Dreyfuss, here’s the first paragraphs of a classic piece Dreyfuss wrote for the Larouche Organization, rolling into a “pro” stance on the matter of Jesus Christ:
    A.  The epic battle, lasting three centuries, that resulted in the defeat of the Roman Empire by the fledgling Judeo-Christian movement was a struggle for the survival of the human race itself. The establishment of the Christian tradition, victorious at the famous Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, was the result of a well-organized and self-conscious conspiracy. The artitects of the Christian movement, led at the start by Philo Judaeus of Alexandria and Jesus of Nazareth, viewed themselves as the founders of a new world order. Amid the collapse and degradataion of Roman immorality, the power of the Christian idea slowly won a widespread following among philosophers, the nobility, merchants and traders, skilled craftsmen, and the elite of the Mediterranean world.

Christianity emerged at a time when the entire known world was perched at the brink of utter barbarism. The masses of the empire were caught up in the spell of ancient eastern cults and mystery religions, whose evil priests and priestesses exercised virtual control over the day-to-day life of the emperor and the peasant alike. The alliance between the emperor, the cults, and the Roman army had created a cannibalistic monster whose insatiable demand for loot by conquest and taxation had plunged the world into a cycle of plague and famine.
           1.  Huh.

IV.  Garlic to Vampires.

   A.  Like so:   The man is NOT the crazy person he has been made out to be by those in power who cannot allow this man to tell the truth about what is happening to this country and the world.

V.  Erica Duggan expressed her frustration to the British and German Legal Process here.
   A.  A rebuttal, such as it is, from this blog’s “Resident Larouchie” is found here. 
       1.  The line of Sympathy was rather belated, and it is necessary to note that what is spoken of in terms of “political manipulators” are the names Dick Cheney and John Train and … and all of Larouche’s Enemies circa 2004.
      2.  I have more than once said that I doubt the legal process will end with any great satisfaction, but the pursuit is important and noble and has resulted in the important connection between the Larouche Organization and the untimely death of Jeremiah Duggan being readily available to this generation of supposed potential recruits.
           a.  Now kind of second only in the public’s mind to the Prison Sentence the Larouche Organization seems incessant on bringing up these days.  Refer to the KPOJ Political Button Guess, and in answer to revenire the “Green Party” label was jumped over because the “Prison Sentence” brought the name “Larouche” to mind.  Next thought in the general public’s mind I can reference the other time Larouche was a guess on this radio call-in-game, the answer of “Harold Stassen” to the clue of “was a frequent presidential candidate”.

VI.  I think I promised some item or other on Oskar Peterlini?
    A.  Oh well.  ‘Tis the “Huge in Europe!” syndrome which plagues many an obscure band.
    B.  From L-PAC:  A three-hour debate on the global financial crisis was opened in the Italian Senate yesterday by Sen. Oskar Peterlini, who forcefully reminded those present of the role of Lyndon LaRouche in forecasting the crisis and his New Bretton Woods solution. Peterlini’s arguments were unchallenged in the debate, but in order not to be defeated in the vote, he was forced to weaken decisively the text of his resolution. Thus, the final text–and of four other resolutions, voted up by the Senate on the same subject–is ironically weaker, and even contrary to what Economy Minister Giulio Tremonti says every second day publicly: “That’s parliamentary systems, baby!”
            1.  Really, you gotta love the fractious Italian Parliamentarian System, as mocked in today’s Get Fuzzy, panel #5.
           2.  A note of comparison to the only locality’s news report that I have seen which found the passage of a HBPA act in a manner that happily aligns with the Larouche Organization:  Hazelton, Pennsylvania — that town appears to embody everything conjured up when one hear’s the phrase “Rust Belt.”
                a.  The Org’s Gambit as they’ve forecasted beyond the hilt all 40 of the last two Recessions, but in this Org’s case it has always been a case of mimicry more than moving any Mass Movement, hence the phrase “Small time [fill the blank].”
                b.  Hazelton, Pennsylvania’s mayor received the endorsement of David Duke for her nativist stances on Immigration, for instance.  I suppose this is where Obama plucked up that “bitter, clings to guns and religions” comment, and Jack Murtha referenced “racist district, you can say.” 
                 — Ironically and incidentally, the Perpetual Economic Blight of some areas explains why some numbers of black local legislators will pass these meaningless resolutions.  Eric Fleming former state representative in Mississippi, for instance, endorsed Larouche and ended his political career.  (Unless he ended it by running for US Senate in the most racially polarized state in the nation.)
      C.  Interesting to note Peterlini’s profound disagreement with Larouche on the matter of China and Tibet.

And… I’m out!

Three weeks ago I say I’ll be back to covering Larouche in a week.  It then took two weeks for me to assemble enough worthy to pass on, hence I ended the next post by saying I’ll be back in two weeks.  I assumed a set pattern where I’d assemble a pile of largely meaningless links of “Larouche” in its modern usage of slur, and here and there a “local color” flickr photograph of a cardtable shrine against the British Empire.  But we have a weirdly notable development, hence I return to the subject of the Lyndon Larouche Organization one week after that last post.   A development that I do not know precisely what to make of this, but it is something that should only be explained with a kind of Kremlinogy analysis.

So, sometime after giving up on his quest to find a cheap copy of Kamandi The Last Boy on Earth #29, my resident Larouchie suggested, as a guage of the awesome political potency of Larouche and an indication of the mass following he has amongst the people, to watch as city councils and state legislators everywhere pass the HBPA Resolution.  I could spot one local news copy which would make the troupe in the boilerroom in Leesburg smile — thank the good folks of Hazelton, Pennsylvania– , and one other item of reaction to being lobbied at a council meeting by Larouchies pressing for the resoultion’s passage.  In terms of the (quote-in-quote) “citizen journalism” of blogging spit out another person noting the LPAC news release of a passage, and a look through in the council record revealed for them a giant “Meh.  Whatever.”

But I think we may now have a first.  I think.  Correct me if I’m wrong, but usually LPAC is anything if not Triumphantal.  LPAC has published a report to the effect that a Resolution has failed to pass.  Now, this I presume happens all the time (Did that LA Council, greeted by masked Schwarzenegger and Rohatyn impersonators, pass anything?) , but here for some reason they just HADCHA report this: 

The Crime of Marielle (Molly) Kronberg Defeats LaRouche’s HBPA in South Dakota LegislatureFebruary 20, 2009 (LPAC)–On February 18th, South Dakota Democratic State Rep. Richard Engels cited Lyndon LaRouche’s fraudulent criminal conviction in 1988 as the reason South Dakota legislators should send House Concurrent Resolution 1009 endorsing LaRouche’s Homeowner’s and Bank Protection Act (HBPA) to defeat. Engels, a Democratic lawyer from Sioux Falls, did not even discuss the content of the bill, which is the only approach that could save […]

Here I refer to an example of an early 2004 Democratic Primary Debate (the one that Democrats were upset enough to petition the 2008 candidates not to participate in a debate sponsored by Fox News, one reason for “outrage” which was cited was that they weren’t able to clamp down disturbant audience members represented in this exchange:

AUDIENCE MEMBER: (OFF-MIKE) “Where’s Larouche?”
DEAN: I suspect he’s in jail.

AND, later, at another heckling moment, an exchange between Sharpton and Lieberman which lacks the direct punch but is a bit longer than I’m willing to post.  The South Dakota state representative is simply following in the foot-steps of a long line of such references, which I think starts with a response to Larouchies by George Herbert Walker Bush (the original enemy in the frame-up, the enemy having been replaced by Kronberg), timeline being during the trial so the Larouche Organization probably decided Bush’s comment was a case of “letting the cat out of the bag”.

I do not fully know to what this “press release” is responding.  It strikes me as an excuse to lay down the Larouche line of defense, for his troops, on the Larouche Court Trials, which suggests a number of possibilities.  #1:  There has been an up-surge of Larouchies “on the ground” being entreated by the public noting Larouche’s criminal history.  #2:  As relatively small bore as this is, the “wikipedia Entry of the Day” feature on “Larouche Criminal Trials” proved a source of dread and foreboding — I suppose stacked next to 20 pages of “Secrets of the Elites” posted at factnet.  #3:  Larouche is anticipating (for good reason and bad) something in the way of court trials here and/or abroad, and needs to gird the org’s members with its history.  #4:  The small bore flutterings, reporting of which is kind of my stock and trade here, of insults needs to be rebuffed by the storyline of a proud Organization, arrows shot from bows with the arrows falling to pieces upon hitting the target.

Of course the antipathy toward Molly Kronberg is long established, as demonstrated in the comments section here, and I believe this to be the current “line”.  I too am a fan of grade school playground insults, so I may as well add:  Margaret is a poopy-head.  There.  Even stevens!  Richard Engels’s career, I assume, will survive this assault — hasn’t even made his wikipedia entry (though, nothing has).  (We’ll see how monetary contributions to Larouche affect New Jersey pols careers.)

In other news, we have this following item of surreality, wherein we see that Larouche has commented on the NY Post  “shot monkey” political cartoon.

Lyndon LaRouche denounced the cartoon as a threat of assassination to the President, who has championed the stimulus program which just recently passed the Congress. LaRouche said it was obvious to him that the President has not yet gotten his feet on the ground, and has to deal with problems which he is still in the process of sorting out. In the meantime, the risks of delay are costly.

I’m told that linking to the comments from this summer is too obvious, becoming a bit too cliche.  There’s this former Larouche member who has packaged that quote into his habit of blog commenting (nom de plomes “Lyn Marcus” — seen in that earlier link which featured Margaret’s coarse insults toward Molly Kronberg — and “xlcer”).  It has immediate relevancy of a sort — as we currently see that the Larouche Youth Movement is trying to take advantage of the platform offered by what I’ll loosely and sarcastically refer to as the “Barack Obama Youth Cult”.  Witness another one of these.

This is interesting, because the last time I saw using this “myobama” platform, the Los Angeles organizer used their names in “organizing the masses” to watch a Larouche webcast, to answer questions from non-existent Canadian girlfriends.  This doesn’t refer to any names.  The second reason is because this “myobama” platform was used by a man warning about Costas Axios with a heavily conspiratorial perspective on Jeremiah Duggan.

Also, Barack Obama was supposed to be a British Agent.  Now the British are out to assassinate him.  Has Obama gone rogue?  I guess it depends on whether he follows the Fascist Synarchists or… um… follows this guy’s advice.  (Yessirre, the leader of the Larouche Cryonics Movement has set up a new weblog!)
We need to get off coal and get to Nuclear Energy, and advance on to Dilithium Crystals!

 EROI is about using the most efficient fuels–bang for the buck. Jevons paradox is that increasing efficiency, increases consumption. The reverse of that is that decreasing efficiency(EROI) will reduce consumption hopefully to the point of sustainability.Instead of seeking to maximize EROI, you need to minimize it. And this proves that the entire fraud is INTENDED as a “power down” hoax– which can lead only to planetary depopulation– consistent with genocide. […]
The starship Enterprise was powerred by dilithium crystals– not oil or coal. A coal powered star ship isn’t possible due to it’s not having a high enough energy density whereas a coal powered train is possible. Similarly, a nuclear powered population on a planet of 7 billion is possible whereas a wood-powered or pedal-powered population of 7 billion is not. All the ERoEI arguments IGNORE power density. The perveyors of the ERoEI hoax should watch more star trek and think about dilithium crystals.

There is something odd about the Star Trek reference.  Its supposed to be all bestializing our culture — like the Star Wars characters who, as commented in 1999 While you might be watching any small portion of the Star Wars series, the most crucial epistemological issue stands out clearly at first glance. At that moment, you have merely to ask yourself: “Do these creatures look human to you?” How could anyone excuse himself from overlooking the significance of that question?
How indeed.  Maybe Robert Beltran’s presence in the org has changed all that.  Maybe their stance on some rock music can change too by tapping Billy Corrigan — I will note that uncovering such sentiments was how Beltran entered the org, so my advice to the org is get while the getting is good. 

One final note, from the LPAC release of LPAC releases:

 … as opposed to Sudanese President Bashir?

That’s all.  One week or two, I’ll come back to this topic.

What, you thought I had some more  elaborate system than that?  But methinks that the Larouche Organization has the phrase “New Dark Ages” keyed in a google search.  Someone at the AP, please post up something write the phrase “Dark Ages” so I can test my theory.

So the debate continues.  This man argues that  the field of Larouchian Economics is best  relegated to sidewalk ranting, said off-handedly as a means for a partisan attack.  This man believes that Larouche is “Possibly One of the best minds in economics today“, I believe relegated by the first man (and about everyone else) to the sidewalk, seeing as Larouche has never worked in the field of Economics Ever, or perhaps not to the sidewalk as to the comments sections of various paranoia-stokers.  Well – he is such a Thorn to the Powers that Be — after all monitored by the government of Sweden and all that.  I have to say, it’s unfair to lump the anti-Fluoridites into the picture, since Fluoridating the Water is indeed a Government Plot to anesticize the public into acceptance of the New World Order whilst Whitening its teeth.

I found a copy of the latest, unless they’ve been so good as to print up a new one, LPAC pamphlet.  The previous possessor of this item — I think it’s called “Doom, Fear, Fear, Doom” — showed the proper respect and correct level of reverence by scribbling a goofy beard and moustache on Lyndon’s face. 

Remind me to go through this pamphlet and comb through the dialouge, and report out the many unnamed luminaries who are said to be asking Lyndon questions.  It’s a silly exercise to be sure, and one that falls on the “Evergreen Pile”.  But, if memory serves, I can report that a functionary of the Confederated Tribes of the Europa section of Alpha Centura asked Larouche what the shape of the table for the proposed meeting between India, China, the US, and Russia was.  And Emperor Xenu asked what the best color to decorate the head of this table might be, where Larouche will sit and dictate Economic instructions for India, the US, Russia, and China to follow.  But these questions pale in importance next to a Phillipine LYM leader’s question on the importance of the Artist in the new Epoch and Renaissance, the answer being that they will furnish the world with the lavish portraits of Lyndon on every Meglev Train and Waterworks Projects.

Since, well, Superbowl Sunday and when last I checked in on this blog, Factnet has exploded in its productivity.  Sort through the last bunch of pages at your leisure.  There is a certain aminus toward Dennis King because of the fundamental difference of opinion that while King believes Larouche has hewed closer to the Adolf Hitler , its argured that this is completely wrong and, indeed, Larouche borrowed more thoroughly from Joseph Stalin.  The problem with the suggestion with Hitler, and reason for discontent, is that it was never a part of anyone in the org’s experience… well, except maybe for things like:

I stood in the elevator as Steinberg told the Jews in a Volkswagen “joke” and didn’t say anything. I knew it was a test. And to be honest I did not know at the time of the extent of my own family’s losses in German gas chambers.

Hm.  If it helps, Larouche’s real life exempliers of good governance, Saddam Hussein for instance, tend to be self-modelled after Stalin and not Hitler.  But really, after a while I begin to suspect a replay of the German — Soviet Pact was in play circa 1973 or thereabouts.

Other than that, I’ll simply link to this here and this here.  I know I posted Part One when “Earnest One”, son of a Luminary in the field of Mathematics, posted it (that would be “New Revelations of Terror Part One”, I assume).  In embryonic form the story was posted once upon a time to this blog, and while I did locate it, I’ll go ahead and pass on linking to it.  The story unspools from there, from about here.  To quote from here, “We now hold the gravest reservations about both the methods and motivation of this group.”

A bit surprisingly, someone emailed me responding to my posting from a 1968 book surveying the American Political Fringe.  “Larouche in it?”  No.  You’d have to wait a few years for him to pop through, and wait still a few more years for him to become the very dictionary definition and thus warranting a large part of a chapter.  Tim Wohlsforth is mentioned as “perhaps the most tedious” of Trotskyite leaders.  The names of various Free School class offerings are listed for minor comedic effect.  If you want to spot Larouche further than that, various ideological underpinninigs surface both right and left — what, him being a composite of a Hitlerite and a Stalinist, or perhaps to fit the “Contrarian” thesis, the ultimate Contrarian of a pro-Stalin Trotskyite.

Back in, well, two weeks probably?  Really, the weekly schedule is becoming bothersome because the googling is drying up.

I.  Regarding the current curfuffel in this city regarding elected officials… it could be worse.  Unrelated Political Fringe figures could deem it somehow relevant to Cause on behalf of.

Dateline Boston, a month ago.  Previously I posted regarding the Larouchies coming to the aide of a Corrupt Black City Council member, who is shown here with an arrow drawn over an extract hand pointing to a green blur being put into his hand, serving as the Champion of a Lost Cause that they might draft some overarching scheming connecting the British plot to assassinate Obama and a general plan to attempt some pick up of support in the black population.  (I note howiecopywriter has come to the aide of Charles Rangel — I guess arbitarily selected as being in the Clinton — Roosevelt — Larouche part of the Democratic Party versus the Soros — Pelosi part.)

As these things go, of course, Larouche was trumpted by a Bigger Person.  By whom?  Well, naturally… Another Great Champion of Lost Causes — nay, “Lost Causes” are sometimes worthwhile — Lost and Unworthy Causes.  The most noteworthy “Champion of Lost Unworthy Causes” for Ramsey Clark being  the Champion of the Lost Unworthy Cause of “Larouche as Political Prisoner”.

This collision in Boston can’t be a coincidence, can it?  I mean, did Chuck Turner send out the “Fringe Battler” signal at the moon, ala The “Bat Signal”, which was spotted by Larouche and Clark?  Did Chuck Turner first roll over to the Larouchies, then decide even they were too far beneath him so at least a step up in the respectability column to tap at Ramsey Clark?  It’s all very mystifying.  And the inanity continues.  (Semi-related and of note:  this appeal to vote for the Green Party in Illinois.)

II.  A Revelation from a source to xlcer at factnet on current living conditions within the LYM:
For those who do not think that the cult could go any lower in forsing extreme poverty and lumpenizaton on members, consider an email I received that says that because the stipends in the LYM are non existant, there are a few ways to eat. One way is from the LA finance officer who tells them to buy more pasta. The other is having LYMettes sell their eggs for money to fertility clinics without the NCs knowing it.

So too xlcer presented the google map, and shoddy shack, for the headquarters of Larouche Incorporated Oakland.  Perhaps another Bread Loaf Relief is in order, though not so much to make any point on the errancy of Larouche Predictions as to satisfy the “Relief” portion of the FDR “Relief, Recovery, Reform” New Deal policy.  Other advice comes fromthis Adam comic strip — more generally pointed at the current economic Recession which has us all bracing for double digit unemployment figures — though here I have to say, I think weather through the downtrun, what with the great stewardship of President Bloomberg guiding our policy.

III.  But this brings me to a different point.  The map points us to “American System Publications”, which sort of brings me to mind a bit of an inquiry.  At the moment, the wikipedia battle has drawn us to the current trio of Larouche sock-puppets having made some quick edits due to the noted vacation absense of the moderator, Will Webank (who has returned, and is I suppose rumbling through his items of interest at wikipedia) – here I link here again as a shout to the mildly interested “It’s even stupider than it looks at first blush”.  This appears to have been a final lunge in the now ceased attempt at Larouchian editing of many a’topic to include Larouche’s “contribution” to many a’topic:  the anachronistic topic of “The American System”, Henry Clay’s proposal for America plucked up by Larouche Inc. for a glom on when Larouche dremaed of pulling his troops away from the realm of Marxism.  The discussion shown here has… The subsequently banned “Herschel Kurstofsky” (reappearing in the form of many a sock puppet) trying to inject into the “American System”:

The American System also emphasized the importance of the power of the human mind to innovate, as the most important topic of discussion for economists. As Abraham Lincoln himself put it, in a speech delivered on the stump in his 1860 campaign, “Man is not the only animal who labors; but he is the only one who improves his workmanship. This improvement he effects by Discoveries and Inventions.”

The American System has been increasing ignored by historians and economics professors, but it is arguably the only approach that has been historically successful in bringing about the rapid economic progress of nations, as demonstrated by its success under the Lincoln Administration and its subsequent revival under Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The two approaches which dominate the academic world today, Laissez-Faire and Marxism, have yet to produce substantial results, and nations which practice them seem to rely on the exploitation of other nations to survive.

The most outspoken proponent of American System Economics in the early 20th Century was Dr. Sun Yat-sen. Today, it is the American politician and economist Lyndon LaRouche.

It appears that an actual current proponent of “The American System” does indeed exist in the guise of “Northmeister”, who I suggest should go ahead and resurrect The Whig Party.  Taking note of his argument that The American System lives and runs through the course of American history, Herschel Kurstofsky chimes in with this unsoliciated suggestion, unsoliciated seeing as “Northmeister” not once mentions Larouche:

If you are thinking about mentioning LaRouche, be advised that Wikipedia is dominated by a clique that insists that LaRouche may only be referenced in a derogatory fashion. Edits which mention LaRouche in non-derogatory terms, regardless of how germane or well-documented they may be, are suppressed.

Which led HK to edit what I guess is a Northmeister editing job with a statement of:

I was uncomfortable with this: “Today this system is generally ignored in the academic world, where the dominant theories are the British system of Smith and the Communist system of Marx. Some conservative economic isolationists have revived interest in the American System approach in varying ways. They include Ross Perot, Pat Choate, Patrick J. Buchanan, Lou Dobbs, and James Fallows. (Liberal isolationists do not like the pro-business slant, and spend their energies attacking NAFTA.) ” …and I have reverted to this: “Today this system is generally ignored in the academic world, where the dominant theories are the British system of Smith and the Communist system of Marx. Some commentators and activists have revived interest in the American System approach in varying ways. They include Ross Perot and his Reform Party, Pat Choate, Patrick J. Buchanan, Lou Dobbs, Lyndon LaRouche, and James Fallows.”

Yes.  Everywhere I go people are talking about The Whig Party Platform of 1840.  Through the entire Bush Administration, it was all incessant “Why is Bush not adapting the Whig Party Platform of 1840?, and now it’s all “I hope that Obama adapts the Whig Party Platform of 1840!”
This gets ridiculous and is spotted as such, and to wrap up before I close this door, bebank responds to northmeister:

Come on, let’s stop making this stuff up. Which historian or economist regards the New Deal as the successor of the American System? –Will Beback 23:22, 22 March 2006

IV.  THE MORE I LEARN ABOUT OUR POLITICIANS THE MORE I REALISE WHY THEY SHOW NO INTEREST IN THE CRIME ON OUR STREETS- THE REASON BEING THEY THEMSELVES ARE THE VERY WORST OF CRIMINALS.

The blogger who posted that then went on to post … what article… regarding what?
To sum up that old article:  the Jeremiah Duggan case was hatched with the tools of the Guardian, the anti-war liberal at times Socialist British paper — to keep the Impeachment of Dick Cheney from happening.

More unimpeachable logic from Larouche-land here:

Just wondering, is Sir Alan Greenspan still GB’s financial advisor? Lol. Lyndon LaRouche states that Soros is a British agent and international drug pusher and urging legalisation of the international drug cartels,EIR Jan 16,2009 Vol.36 No.2 If this is not true, why has Soros not sued LaRouche. You cannot comment on the City of London without talking money laundering, and it is called laundering because it is very, very dirty.

Yes.  Why don’t the subjects of Larouche’s Conspiratorial Ramblings sue him?  And why don’t the Nation’s Elite sue David Icke for the slander that they are all Reptilian Lizard People?

But it’s interesting when conspiracy theorying is out conspiracy theoried, as with:  Larouche’s function is to obscure the issues and prevent people from identifying the real menace.  Wait a minute.  Who’s pulling the strings on Larouche?  The Synarchists themselves???

V.  Making note of the change in oppositional tactics, now raging against the Soros — Pelosi part of the Democratic Party and discarding the old nemesis of Bush, but more importantly for this blogger, the question:  One odd difference is that when the LaRouchies were going after Cheney, they were gathering signatures in front of Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods; going after Pelosi, they’re standing in front of Von’s. I wonder why.
This interior monolouge has been completed.  The Rush at the PUMA movement is far behind us, complete with — cannot link to this often enough — and with it the odd convergence with Walter Tarpley is over with.  Case in point, the Larouche Inaugural Special Web-cast.  Take it away, Debra Freeman!

But, the demand for Mr. LaRouche to address the nation and to address the world, prior to President Obama’s inauguration, in the midst of what is unarguably the worst crisis that our nation has ever faced, was overwhelming. And in meeting that demand, we scheduled today’s Webcast. […]
And, take it away, the Kim Jong Il of a dozen dozen people!
Now, the significance of that is this: No one knows exactly what President Obama is going to conclude on the issue of the international monetary-financial crisis. I haven’t talked with him; and he has, of course, restrained himself on a number of matters, pending the time that he is the actual President, as opposed to speaking as a President-elect. […]

We all await that moment when Larouche will get a speak-through with Obama.  Heck — it could happen.  Obama’s all for Speaking with All Kinds of Politicals for Strained Unity, right?

The huddled Larouchies at the warehouse in Oakland, I assume, went off after the Historic Speech to electioneer for this post.  The 43rd District on the California Democratic Party State Central Committee… Democrats across the state’s 80 Assembly districts voted for delegates over the weekend, during a competition that the general public is largely unaware of, said Hugh Esten, an exiting delegate.
Best opportunity for a low-scale Illinois ’86, with added bonus of nobody noticing.  And the roots for the great Presidential Nominating battle between Larouchies sometime in the future.  Witness:
Courtney Jones — who was standing near a group of his supporters who sang songs with lyrics like “I need a bailout” and “LaRouche was right,” in reference to New Hampshire political activist Lyndon LaRouche — said he hoped to be a part of changing the party.“I’m running so I can help shape the Democratic platform around reality,” Jones said.
Let us all now go out and shape the Democratic platform around reality.

I’ve rolled back into the supposed Larouche Wikipedia “Wars”, and caught sight of an item rather emblematic of the nature of the “wars”.  Right about here.  Leaving aside “Don’t Lose that Number”, the peoples “Marvin Diode” and “MaplePorter” were subsequently banned due to the preponderance of the evidence leading to them being identified as sock puppets for the banned “Herschel Kurstofsky”, which also seems to be the case for the more immediately deleted “NathanDW”.  So it is a battle between someone suffering multiple personalities and Dennis King.  It is with such that strain the demands for the wikipedia guideline “Assume Good Faith”, a rule that within the compounds of wikipedia editing on topics where a small group have a vested interest in how the item reads, asks you to turn your brain off and give the largest benefit of the doubt that might be applied — witness the exchange between Will Bebank and leatherstocking.  (And, by the way, have you taken the leatherstocking challenge?)  Today, leatherstocking and macwhirr hold onto this ship, continuing the tradition of countless tedious people jabbering away in boiler rooms across the country — oddly enough able to produce the out-of-print “Railroaded” book cited by a previous sock puppet.  The effect is interesting: notably the LYM article is a joke and the mini-boiler room patrons seek to make it an even bigger joke, and a different sock puppet has taken the opportunity afforded by a momentary absence from the moderator Bebank and the decidedly anti-Larouche King to change the lede for the Larouche article so the lede does not reference Larouche as the commonly held through our culture anti-semitic fringe cult-leader (again: Have you taken the Leatherstocking Challenge?) — never mind its already compromised with the Larouche cultists “wildly diverging viewpoints” statement.

Next I note that one “Ian Overton” is organizing a meeting using this Obama Campaign Internet networking tool as well the Internet netorking tool of “Community Organize”. where Overton will lead a “dialouge with the” quote-in-quote “Institution of the Presidency“, since — as we see here, “We are running the only worthwhile conspiracy that exists.
Everything else is just a process of plunge into Hell.”  To unpack the “Institution of the Presidency” would mean to weave back into the conjectures of the Larouche Movement and its combination of imaginings and itchings, not seen by the outside world because we cannot grasp at the square root of two… or else, you know, the need to rationalize the great “miscegenating around” spiel. 

Who is this Ian Overton?  It just so happens that he is a leader of the Anchorage LYM, stating to Lisa Murkowski that “if you are a decent human being, you won’t vote for Hitler” — meaning, Samuel Alito.  Residing in California, he leads the Anchorage Larouche Youth Movement.  A botched attempt at getting their stamp on at the start of a “grassroots Radical” anchor in Alaska — indymedia spot here.  And now he’s in Berkley.  From this one would excused for thinking that the LYM are essentially itenerent preachers, never putting down roots, riding around in a beat up old car from place to place.  Around the age of 16, plenty of people read Jack Kerouac — On the Road and the Dharma Bums — and get a hankering for the open road.  It tends to die down, but I guess lingers in some people — some people are Euclidian at heart, I suppose.   But this leads to the intriguing question:  Is there currently an Anchorage LYM cell, or have they all picked up stakes and moved to California?

Meantime, the lingering question — what after the death? — expressed in blog comments sections whenever someone makes a passing joke reference — may be answered here:

The LYM are told they are to replace the ‘boomers’. Harley and Phil have been saying for some time that after LaRouche dies they will skip the ‘boomers’ and have one of the LYM run for president. Harley Schlanger is grooming Cody Jones but there are a couple of others who are fallbacks. 

CODY JONES FOR PRESIDENT!  Or, you know… Jason Ross… or Rianna St. Classis… Sky Shields?  Hell!  A person can dream!  Ian Overton might just be the dark horse candidate for the role of 8-time joke presidential candidate, stepping into the leagacy shoes of his great hero.  But… not so fast:

The idea of telling Cody Jones that he will be the next presidential candidate is an inflated cheap parlor trick. Lyn did that with several National Office NCs and members when he ran in 1976. He began to refer to several people as cabinet choices or appointees in a Larouche Administration. If anyone has New Solidarities from the 1976 campaigns you will see an article by “Bob Dreyfuss, Sec of State nominee” for example.

Ian Overton for Imaginary Illusionary Science Advisor!  Or, perhaps sometime in the future, he can ride The Nation Cruise along with Naomi Klein.

This does, however, put into stark relief the dreams of the current membership and the cast who largely wandered off during Larouche’s prison sentence.  Dreyfuss never had presidential ambitions — that was reserved for Lyndon.  Lyndon gone, Cody Jones can now rise to that level, right?  Right?  Right?  And, as we see, he’s already gotten his foot in the electoral door.— member of the Los Angeles County Democratic Central Committee (I think I lost the article I meant to post).  And with a man already concerning himself with the issues that concretely affect everbody’s life.

Finally, before I exit this door, to plunge myself in this Insanity next week, I post, for the record, a link to the words of one Noam Chomsky on his brief thoughts and brief experience on Larouche, complete with the “howiecopywriter” response that Chomsky is in on a Grand Tavistock Institute Conspiracy.  Tavistock Institute.  Where have I heard that name?
Well, that’s that for this.  I’ll plunge myself back into this madness in a week.

One good thing about the passing of the Bush Administration:  the end to having to hear about gawd-danged Prescott Bush.  Were you aware that Prescott Bush funded the Nazi War Machine?  Why, the Bush Family is responsible for the rise of Nazi Germany!!

It is there that this awkward passage dangles in wikipedia’s “Prescott Bush” entry.:
 On July 23, 2007, the BBC Radio 4 series Document reported on the Business Plot and the archives from the McCormack-Dickstein Committee hearings. The program made no allegations about Prescott Bush.

I would think the statement “BBC documentary made no allegations” would land in the discussion page, but apparently a whole mass of people roll to wikipedia seeking BBC’s verification that Prescott Bush was in the middle of Smedley Butler’s claimed conspiracy of a coup attempt against Roosevelt to justify its requirement.  So Prescott Bush gets to be post-humously shoe-horned into the picture:  Jules Archer’s rather repetitive book on the subject doesn’t have Butler fingering Prescott Bush.

The entry on the “Business Plot” is seen here, and I suppose I’d argure for Raymond Swing’s contemporaneous dismissal of said plot in “Forerunners of American Fascism” to be included somewhere along the lines, but his thoughts are pretty much summised in Arthur Schlesinger’s reaction, at any rate Schlesinger not obscure as Swing.
In the discussion section for this, one question is suggested:  Isn’t this just an International Jewish Bankers’ Conspiracy?  Oh, I’d say Not quite.  But one can be forgiven for saying it is, and the right archtypes are there, it fits the Grand Narrative and quickly can be applied in subverting the history of the rise of Hitler.   Note that listed in the “Historians Reaction” on this wikipedia page, right next to Schlesinger, is Hans Schmidt, I suppose appropriate for writing a  biography on Butler , though some further background I’d think might be approrpiate — he doesn’t have a wikipedia page to link to, so I have to scrouge up  this.  I will also note that a google search reveals Schmidt is in ill health at the moment, hence a supplier of nazi paraphenilia features a well wish greeting.

Curiously discussed in the discussion page, issue acknowledged with a “Wow” by an editor with no clarification left on the page itself.
Also interesting to note — deleted from wikipedia here.  I know where this fits the Larouche cause of last year; I don’t know enough of what the organization was shilling in 1994 to know what they were attempting then.

So the sudden burst of Larouchite sock-puppets at the “Larouche Criminal Trials” wikipedia discussion over the issue of clarifying some used as a Larouche Credentialist at the time of Larouche’s Imprisonment, Von der Heydt, “Huge in Europe and a Political Prisoner!” — bring Dennis King to task for — hypocrisy? — over not taking on the real Nazis of history — namely Prescott Bush – right about here…

This is all a big fraud. Dennis King has no credentials as an actual opponent of Nazism *  — when has he ever spoken out against the Americans and Brits who actually supported Hitler, such as Prescott Bush, Averell Harriman, Montagu Norman, or Joseph Kennedy? When has he ever opposed the Germans who really <i>and etc. etc.</i>
This article isn’t about King, Bush, Montagu, or Kennedy. Nor is it about Heydte. We have plenty to cover without bringing in extremely tangential characters. Heydte is a side-show. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 10:28, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

I like the phrase “Actual Opponent of Nazism”.   That covers most of us — though, I guess not all of us.  Is there anyone out there who does not believe that Dennis King opposes Nazism?  And if it takes credentials to get that, where can I get these credentials as cheaply as possible?  In politics, anyone who is discovered to be otherwise is electorally dead in the water – witness the case with Tony Zirkle.

Wander further into this underbrush and we see documents posted at “laroucheplanet” being challenged for being posted at such a slanderous site, and then there’s what I guess is a lesson in the economics of the Larouche Cult from one of the Larouche sock puppets:

The LaRouche movement is anything but typical, so the supposition that publishing someone’s book involves a financial transaction is unfounded. And it is worthy of note that the LaRouche trial generated an international hue and cry. I don’t see two German professors, by the way. And why is it that they are only “obscure” when you disagree with them? —Terrawatt (talk) 16:21, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

The LaRouche Movement doesn’t pay its authors? Do you have a source for that astonishing assertion? The second professor is Albert Bleckmann. Niether German professor is famous in their field in the U.S. and neither is known to have attended the trials. There’s no apparent relation between themn and the case, except that they have opinions. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 19:16, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Okay.  The rest of my day’s ramblings are here.  I don’t want too much more of this to be sitting here on this blog. 

In other news:  appropriation of phrases — the cult is pushing for Fusion with the phrase, (ahem) “Yes we can”.  These guys may want to be a bit more careful.  And this is mildly interesting.

The end of the Bush Administration affords the opportunity to look back and recall some of the those minor controversies which flared up admist larger political concerns — the brush-fires off of the larger debates.  One item forgotten, when Richard Perle invited one Laurent Murawiec into a government policy board — one which had been refashioned in the Bush Administration to advocate the neo-conservative view in foreign policy — topple Saddam Hussein, put fear into Tehran, and on from there.  Of course, Murawiec is no longer an advocate for Larouche, and we see that he has been referred to as, “a real-life ‘Beetlebaum’ of the legendary mythical horse-race, and a hand-me-down political carcass, currently in the possession of institutions of a peculiar odor.” But the imprints of his time with Larouche linger — as the slate article aptly asks “and where did he learn to write like this?” — with a power point presentation that ends with “Egypt the Prize” — surely neo-conservativsm on hyper-drive — that perpetual half suspect whimsical thought pops into my head that maybe he was a plant of the organization all along, or I’d suggest more likely — it’s a logical extension of where he came from — the old ally of the Neoconservative Movement from back in the day — ie:  the Lyndon Larouche Movement — the advocates of a more aggressive stance against the Soviet Union annoyed by what they viewed as a lax appeasement of real-politik from figures such as Henry Kissinger — the stance that would help propel Ronald Reagan and a more aggressive stance against the Soviet Union “Evil Empire”, which as we can see here in this letter from Patrick Ruckert to the Seattle Times, the imprisonment of Larouche was all about the relinquishing of forces back to a policy agenda that would appease Moscow.

Politically, the rush was motivated by the fact that during the Reagan-Bush transition, the government wanted LaRouche out of the way while several policy actions were launched.The policy issues are the intent of the “establishment” to continue appeasement of Moscow; and to implement savage austerity against Third World nations and the U.S. population itself, to hold together a collapsing monetary and banking system.

Also, mind you,  The nation will slide into the police-state methods of the Nazis and the Soviet empire.  It all came to passed as predicted — this imprisonment brought upon a strengthening of the power of the Soviet Union to run roughside all over its sphere of Influence.  Right?

Because we’re always very concerned with Moscow’s treatment of its neighbors.

I think a lexus-nexis search (or some more scattershot variations I can partake of) for news conferences with “Executive Intelligence Review” with any variation of the phrase “note of puzzlement” would draw up a good number of “notes of puzzlement” — though, in this case the phrase “as I’m sure the Executive Intelligence group would be the first to point out” suggests the speaker preceeding him knew exactly who he was talking to.  This Brookings Institute press junket happened in August of 2008.  At the time the cult was pretty much dedicating all of its attention to supporting Putin in his spill-over into Georgia.  It was the daily briefing cause of the day, and the battle to stop the out-break of WW3 (here started by those dastardly neo-cons) was the reason given for sticking the information that Larouche appeared on a Russian tv show in the wikipedia article.  This all changed during the Great Crisis which had Treasury Secretary run to Congress for a massive bail-out, and we could pivot right back to the bread and butter Bank Collapse Panic.  Which, naturally, Larouche has been well ahead of — why, he saw it coming back in 1979 and had Carter have to hear his name — bold seeing as Carter was at the time plotting with Queen Elizabeth and others to assassinate him. 

 To summarize:  a one time supporter of the neo-con movement and the biggest War Mongerers out there despite what they will tell you annoy someone whose name is not Sara and continue on.  Also for some reason Jeremiah Duggan is on an anti-semites’ list of Influential Jews who are destroying British Society.  Well, let’s hope he proves to be influential, I suppose.

Quick!  Bo Gritz!  Dead or Alive?
… Apparently alive.  But the most prominent item on the front of his website is activism on behalf of Terri Schiavo, and surprisingly enough I see I mentioned him on this blog at the time.
After that, the previous item in mainstream press is way back to 1998 when People Magazine printed a blurb about his botched suicide attempt.  I would think that the life travails of Bo Gritz would fall outside the editorial purview of People Magazine, but then I guess I would be wrong.

I mention Bo Gritz as his name popped up in the comments section of this Cracked article on “Craziest Presidential Candidates” — “Craziest Presidential Candidates” — a list I didn’t post here even if it fits my focus on Lyndon Larouche as I found the whole thing rather pedestrian.  I must note that Cracked, like Christian Science Monitor and like the Weekly World News — has euphemistically shifted to a “web based strategy” — ie:  stopped printing.  Interestingly, the Lyndon Larouche organization was ahead of this trend when they axed 21st Century Science and Technology, so those guys are trailblazers after all.

A comment in the wikipedia discussion of Bo Gritz:  I remember a virtual media blackout of Gritz during the 1992 Presidental race.  Which is the bane of all the third party candidates for president — that there media black-out — in Gritz’s case, the difficulty of taking seriously a presidential bid aimed at the Survivalist / Milita movement which made a detour to negotiate with Randy Weaver in his stand-off with the government at Ruby Ridge..  Well, leaving aside the odd mention of a figure not listed by Cracked, I can turn to a figure that was listed by Cracked, and the comments he inspired.  To the man mentioned in the article itself and his proported “stand-off”, I think dzieger’s post is off, maybe:

My wife and I used to stay at a Bed & Breakfast in Purcelville, VA in ahouse previously owned by Larouche’s organization. When the current owners were rennovating the property, they found a floor plan that labeled each room’s function. Of the approximately 15 rooms, around 10 were labeled “gun storage.”

Off, probably.  Forward to dzieger’s next sentences, and we see how Larouche can get any space anywhere at all.
And honestly, would any of these psychos have been any worse than what we’ve had for the last 8 years?
The answer, of course, is yes.  To see how Larouche would run the national government, see how he runs his organization.  Basically as   A Totalitarian State, with our military being rolled into Great Britain. *

As for LaRouche and the ultimate crime of ‘Capital H, Holocaust denial(tm)’…well he has plenty of genuinely nutty conspiracy theories. No need to bring out the politically incorrect stuff to condemn him. After all, you won’t be jailed for questioning the moon landings, but don’t mess with the magical 6 million figure or you may find yourself being extradited to Germany. “5,999,999? Oy Vey! Seize him!”

Seems like a weird concern for someone to have.  But then again, so does the fight to get “balance” between “the pro-Larouche fanatics” and the “anti-Larouche fanatics” in the wikipedia article on the Larouche Youth Movement, the concern of “leatherstocking” (have you taken the leatherstocking challenge?) and Macwhirr.  Neither of whom are followers of Larouche, mind you, just… for some strange reason… concerned that the wikipedia article represents the relentlessly covered Larouche coverage on the LYM as much as the sparodic coverage elsewhere.  Because that’s a common concern for Mr. Joe Sixpack.

What this article lacks is a factual report of the WLYM’s activities and a viewpoints. It is dominated by the point of view of other groups that oppose the WLYM. Also, it is difficult for genuinely anti-establishment groups like the WLYM to get honest press coverage, because the press represents the establishment and the establishment will defend its interests through blackouts and scandal-mongering. For a straightforward account of the groups activities and goals, you would have to go to the group itself, where you will get an account that cannot be challenged. […]  It’s not a question of telling readers what the organization thinks of itself. It is a political organization, and is worthy of note because it has a substantial following, and it has a following because people agree with its goals and principles.

“Substantial following”.  Well, you know, for an article like this one the one way to circumvent the — um — “Media Blackout” (snicker) is to roll through blog commentary of impressions on meeting with them.

By “opposing groups” I don’t mean the mainstream media, by which I assume you mean the Washington Post. The other sources are mostly either college papers or activist/journalists like LaRouche himself. It is the activist/journalists that I was mainly referring to, such as Avi Klein, who comes from the neoconservative movement.

Well, this guy has read the directive “talking points” from out of Larouche-ville, though he failed to mention the “Mossad” connection — or is that just understood with this particular usage from this particular use for the phrase “neoconservative movement”?  Avi Klein recently had a short piece about Max Baucus published in the Washington Monthly — I don’t think Avi Klein deserves a fate of being referenced perpetually as having written a focus on Larouche — so, perhaps, Max Baucus critic Avi Klein.  That’ll change google dynamics!

One last note in the realm of wikipedia — in the discussions for larouche himself, we have a statement

As an American i feel compelled to add the word fringe so that people from other countries know where this guy stands in mainstream culture. I was tempted to use the word obscure rather than fringe, but he did attract a moderate amount of attention at one time. He is to politics what Fred Phelps is to religion.

How presumptuous of you to think that because you read the mighty American press you know more about LaRouche than people from other countries. We’re not talking Britney Spears here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.215.90.216 (talk) 15:11, 28 December 2008 (UTC)You got that right.  People know who Britney Spears is.

* Recent statement:  “Where do you put your troops?,” LaRouche asked in conclusion. “On whose border do you do it? You set them up on the British border! The British drug lords’ border! And, keep the pressure going in that direction.”

Curiously enough, this piece of interview with larouche defending his Guilty Verdict and Prison sentence showed up.   Why would it turn up at this particular junction?
