Well, I'm not a member of the permanent political establishment, and I've learned quickly these last few days that if you're not a member in good standing of the Washington elite, then some in the media consider a candidate unqualified for that reason alone.

Our Party Controlled Politicians
Politicians should all be independent and no party ties,
Locked into some secret party agenda in disguise,
Can't have an independent thought for some unknown reason,
It could be considered the equivalent as high treason.
Their elite establishment always oppose political change,
We the people are merely numbers and easy to arrange,
We're in a media controlled political prison box,
No changes forthcoming so no need to click your inbox.
No binding referendums, no recall or euthanasia,
No need for mandatory voting like they have in Australia,
No proportional representation in first past the post,
These changes are forbidden in Canada from coast to coast.

It's essential not to have an ideology, not to be a member of a political party. While the writer can have certain political views, he has to be careful not to have his hands tied.

Palin On the Bill Of Rights
Palin states Assange
should be hunted down
like al-Qa'ida or Taliban.
A serious issue! A journalist?
A member of the media!
Alaskan Governor?
Proclaims Julian Assange
should be executed
literally like a terrorist.
Operation Payback
denies attack on Palin’s
website Sarah Pack.
An 'Anonymous' member has stated
'We don’t really care about Sarah Palin...
We personally don’t care about Sarah Palin'.
Of course poor
Sarah feels aggrieved
she is a victim an
attack on her own first
amendment rights
sacrosanct constitution.
To disagree with
leader Mad Hatter
at the tea party is
an attack on her first
amendment rights
in America? ... but but
Julian Assange is
Australian. Please!
Another country Sarah.
But then judge Palin
geography expert
proclaims North Korea is
an important American
ally. Please if ever
you decide to elect
her President. Don’t
let her attack target
South Korea by mistake.
But not looking good
for Australia
harbouring that big
'anti American
treasonous guy' who is not
American therefore
Assange cannot
be tried for treason
because he is not American.
What about an Alaskan menace
who puts her political opponents
in symbolic political 'crosshairs'?

Why Didn't You Warn Me?
Sometimes the best lesson to learn,
Is the one that is self taught.
With a discovery that has been enhanced.
Since the effect of it has a permanent existence.
And is better than anything tried,
By another who attempts to teach...
But thought to be unqualified.
'Why didn't you warn me? '
~Let's see...
After standing on my head.
And banging it up against the wall,
To get your attention...
I decided I had enough of it.
How many times did you expect,
For me to waste my breath? ~
'I didn't think you would allow me,
To make a fool of myself like I did.'
~And...
You learned nothing from that lesson? ~

No Binding Referendums Allowed Mar 3rd,2011
The polls say this or that but what about the questions asked?
Bent questions wanting bent answers where the truth is often masked,
Where elite establishment media get what they need,
Binding referendums will remain unknown and that's agreed.
Without referendums, we should have proportional representation,
Because first past the post can be a misrepresentation,
Because the combined opposition had more votes than the winner,
Therefore the people didn’t vote for that winning sinner.
But this information is quietly swept under the rug,
And the winning political party is so very smug,
Unfortunately this is not politically correct information,
They certainly don’t want it broadcast in our great nation.

It is the eternal truth in the political as well as the mystical body, that, where one member suffers, all the members suffer with it.
There is one instance that we cite in the report where in one of the conversations a member of organized crime is talking to another member of organized crime and he suggests that Attorney General Kennedy should be murdered.

A small member of a big academy
I loved you then when you were with me.
I love you now after you have left me.
I shall love you in future. It is total.
My love for you is indefatigable.
You are my dear as ever as you cannot be near.
I am yours ever as you cannot cross over either.
I am proud as a member of your love
The way one feels as a member of a Royal Academy.
