Item #1:\u00c2\u00a0 Jeffry Steinberg came back from Florida with a tan<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s the talk of Leesburg.\u00c2\u00a0 I guess.\u00c2\u00a0 What I really want to know, though, is who keeps stealing the Tab from the bottom of the frigerator?\u00c2\u00a0 That’s Papert’s property!<\/p>\n

Item #2:\u00c2\u00a0 Mr. Ossifur continues his advocacy on behalf of merging Larouchianism with the field of Cryonics.<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0 He asserts that he is “the only person in cryonics who is looking at cryonics from a larouche perspective.<\/em>“\u00c2\u00a0 This strikes me as quite the booby prize — CONGRATULATIONS.\u00c2\u00a0 A real Rebel Without a Cause, he.\u00c2\u00a0 On the Run, Under the Gun.\u00c2\u00a0 Further proof of the British control of the Vast Cryonics community can be found, as pointed out here<\/a>, by a post at “Cryonics Chat” from Alvin praising British funding for some Scientific research.\u00c2\u00a0 The British Empire is on the way out, though, to be replaced by FDR \/ Larouche.\u00c2\u00a0 Which is great,\u00c2\u00a0because he watched some webcast of Larouche and thinks he saw him reference some life-extension, meaning his leader may just be slowly Cyronically freezing himself while he’s still alive.<\/p>\n

Item #3:\u00c2\u00a0 A neo-nazi posting under the banner of David Duke at the web’s pre-eminent neo-nazi website agrees with Dennis King’s “code words”<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Go to the amazon.com reviews on Dennis King’s book for a bemusing Larouchie mocking this grand concept.\u00c2\u00a0 Anyway, I guess I’ll file that away into a mental folder\u00c2\u00a0if revenire shows up and mentions it.<\/p>\n

Item #4:\u00c2\u00a0 For the Kremlinologist:\u00c2\u00a0 Helga Zepp is featured prominently on the sidebar of the larouche pages, demanding that “Ibero-America” sign a petition for food.\u00c2\u00a0 Or… we sign a petition to get “Ibero-America” food.\u00c2\u00a0 Or food will be transported to “Ibero-America” thanks to a petition.\u00c2\u00a0 At any rate, her huge face dons the side of these web-pages, and that’s what’s important.\u00c2\u00a0 No word on whether she is well tanned.<\/p>\n

Item #5:\u00c2\u00a0 Also flogged, Steinberg appears on Russian Television.\u00c2\u00a0 We have seen the future.\u00c2\u00a0Russian Authoratarian Government Coddling.\u00c2\u00a0 They are now publishing their emittions in Russian, apparently.\u00c2\u00a0 Weee!\u00c2\u00a0 (Also the\u00c2\u00a0future for Steinberg:\u00c2\u00a0George Soros conspiratorial bashing. (Feeding into a niche in the political spectrum for the moment.)<\/a><\/font><\/u><\/p>\n

Item #6:\u00c2\u00a0 So.\u00c2\u00a0 Webster Tarpley.\u00c2\u00a0 What can one say?\u00c2\u00a0 He gets around a bit.\u00c2\u00a0 Recently bumped into\u00c2\u00a0nooks and crannies\u00c2\u00a0of\u00c2\u00a0the\u00c2\u00a0blogosphers\u00c2\u00a0due to\u00c2\u00a0interjecting himself in that whole\u00c2\u00a0“PUMA” thing.\u00c2\u00a0 The upshot is that everyone refers to him as a “Larouche associate”, or — at best, and I suppose more accurately, “one stepped removed”, by way of dismissing the largely easily dismissable “PUMA” movement.\u00c2\u00a0 It is kind of amusing, though I wish I had a clearer idea of what is the modern day connection.\u00c2\u00a0 Skip to wikipedia, where Chip Berlet argured about the proper place for the Larouche connection on that page<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Out of curiosity, I wondered how this meets a far more sympathetic figure in Robert Zubrin<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0— who, I don’t know, doesn’t carry as much of that into his later career.\u00c2\u00a0 In between these two (sounds like he’s still in versus would never know) would be Robert Dreyfss (explains some things), whose wikipedia entry <\/a>seems to have a “feel justified” mentioning because “The “about author” section includes photos of Dreyfuss and his biography from this period.”\u00c2\u00a0 <\/em>(The discussion page reveals no controversy on the matter, though.)\u00c2\u00a0 As for Tarpley — flag him.\u00c2\u00a0 The Democratic Convention is this week, and he’s sure to show up somewhere, flogging his anti-Obama book and perhaps tying himself into the “birth certificate” nonsense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
