Gabrielle Giffords In Political 'Crosshairs
Palin’s Gabriel Giffords in political 'crosshairs'
was an act of terrorism or stupidity?
Fueled a massacre fueled reader gunman's rage?
Sarah Palin created a list of candidates to defeat
in next election used gun crosshairs to illustrate
her intention. What influence these images on any...
troubled, angry, mentally unstable young minds?
Who sows a 'hate-filled atmosphere of unbending
partisan politics in which opponents are demonized
to the point that violence becomes not merely
possible, but probable'. Answer power hungry minds.
Are power crazed minds best choice for world peace?

Raise Up A Leader Worthy To Be Followed
View exceptionally insightful probing modern writ
an investigation into psyche discarding excuses
ego superego and id an examination of feelings

there were none choices stripped away sly autocrat
molasses eye candy promises never were free tasted.
People hold power accountable dirty state secrets kept
behind closed doors tolerate no more swept under carpet

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'?

What Is A Terrorist Sarah Palin?
No a terrorist is “somebody who uses violence,
especially bombing, kidnapping, and assassination,
to intimidate others, often for political purposes”.
Julian prints truth, the public, has a right to know?
From proven sources, like journalists, newspapers.
Unlike American intelligence community accurately.
The meaning of terrorism is defined in a dictionary.
As reportedly once a journalist should not Sarah know?

The definition of terrorist used, was quoted directly from the Encarta Dictionary: English (North America) .

Who Will Honour Remember Praise Our Struggle
We recognize the power of the written words
bravery of reporters journalists photographers
power of precisely focused startling shock images
images that cry freedom poverty oppression crimes
against our inflicted humanity youth screams
who will honour remember praise our struggles
corrosive effect of war on afflicted flesh minds
hunger bloats starvation indifference, political gains
drought famine disease rise upon, mega manic markets
clinical sterile slavery lords over life, in boardrooms.

Sarah Palin Smoked Pot And Called The Kettle Black?
Sarah Palin prime presidential material stated
people’s hero Julian Assange is a terrorist! Then
imposed Presidential sentence to be carried out.
Sarah Palin feels how wronged, she attacked Julian Assange, in
great Palin stalker tradition, she denounced innocent him; prime
terrorist who therefore should be allowed No Human Rights.
No Trial Julian Assange Assassinated a dehumanizing sentence
affirming Palin denial of human rights Geneva conventions.
Yes U.S. Republican Party Vice-Presidential candidate Governor
Palin said Assange should be hunted down like al-Qa'ida or Taliban.
Scary military build up invasion war to hunt down one man in Afghanistan.
Statistically now safe for at least a decade like hunted Osama bin Laden?
The moral of the story journalist Palin believes Assange should be executed.
Literally executed. Ladies on Palin bad hair day do not insult her clothes.
Palin who believes North Korea is one of America’s most important allies.
Image horror of Palin Presidential Order, nuke South Korea.
Imposed Sarah if I were President sentence to be carried out.
What a nightmare on apocalyptic global scale that would be.
Palin vast intellect geographic expert would nuke wrong Korea.
Palin muddled admitted she smoked inhaled marijuana when younger.
Palin proclaimed marijuana was legal in Alaska during her totage.

3 Elephants Sue Republican Party
Elephants of the world have issued a press release.. an intention
to sue the Republican Party over using them as a symbol.
Their spokesperson states that no political party in the US has
ever harmed them more than Republicans whose trophy hunting
ivory seeking idle rich pleasure jaunt safaris with machine guns
and aerial hunting candidates such as Sarah Palin have decimated
elephant numbers.
The long memoried pachyderms know that the party of petroplutocrats
chose them for their size to give the false impression
that Republicans, less than 25% of the population, have more power than Democrats.
Republicans have won power through deflecting people's attention to
illegal wars, through murder (Kennedy's, King,
Wellstone, Callahan etc) , through bribery and 20,000 kinds of tricks.
*************************
55% of the country is unregistered. Of the remaining 45%,3/5 or
60% are independent or third party (Greens, Socialists, Libertarians,
Constitution Party, etc.) . Of the remaining 18%, over 2/3 are Democrats.

Sour Grapes
He could not even hold on to his Parliamentary seat
And just like Paul Keating before him he cannot accept his defeat
Johnny Howard is now an ex politician yet in defeat one without grace
By his attacking of former opponents he is trying to save face
On his huge retirement pension he is not satisfied
Like Keating he suffers of the syndrome known as dented pride
With him 'tis 'sour grapes' and 'twould seem fair to say
Just like a bad smell he just won't go away
Defeat must be shattering to his self esteem
But he has conned himself into believing he is still Australia's Prime Minister that's how it does seem
That he lost his seat and the Election he cannot accept or believe
And only the very conservative his political exit did grieve
All fair minded Australians of him retain bad memories
As the one who for to cling to power demonized poor boat refugees.

who fear... God

of those who
seek him earnestly

The Church Of The True God
Lofty majestic
mountains
be my Cathedral.
Vibrant clear
peak top skies
be my Messiah.
Dazzling solar wind veld
spanning shimmering star
studded Heavens Free;
rippling notes played
upon gleaming cosmic organ’s
Universal Celestial choir.
Radiant power
vibrates
in sunbeams chimes;
dances irresistibly
in naked darkness
delineating closed men's minds.
Thus when life’s
grey animated clay
does slip away.
Even most ignorant
denying soul particles
such power cannot stay.

Salvation Hope Across All Experience Aged Decades
across all experience aged decades
one constant remains indelible true
vessel body with thoughts wrestles
thoughts this body cannot contain
thoughts wear this body boil within
thoughts restless demand expression
this world screams global conflict
this world screams cruel exploitation
this world screams control addict
little minds corrupted government rule
little minds wealth power coveting rule
little minds cast down civilization rule
all that is temporal disappears wasted despairs
all that is temporal wealth materialism wears
all that is temporal exalted prestigious exploits
“never to be forgotten in all eternity
God became human through Mary...
true salvation is in Christ not Mary
Jesus Christ flesh incarnate one of us
Jesus Christ flesh tempted as one of us...
Divine Kingdom of God is born in us
Jesus Christ was a human being born....
virginity of Mary was God’s temporal restoration
paving God’s purpose choice accept salvation”

Declared in free speech bold

In Full Devastating Exuberance
The psychopaths have been freed,
To show the power they do have.
Insanity has become the 'norm' these days.
Being absolutely crazed is a fashion statement.
Oh, it is the 'rage'.
Those maintaining their strong identities,
Are depicted as 'strange'.
With those slotting everything that breathes on Earth,
In categories to help them defame and maim.
The psycopaths have been freed,
With a wish to have their philosophies...
That are mentally twisted,
Deemed as the way society should be.
With minds diseased from a poisonous greed.
People can not believe,
From birth to death they have been deceived.
And those who see it can not snap others awake.
Gone are the minds,
In celebration of traditions set up to worship.
But seen today as fake.
No one can feel united,
When tearing things apart...
Has become manifested into an artform!
People have become obsessed,
With a crushing of themselves.
To assist others 'consciously'...
With the feeding of unhappiness.
And the chasing of conflict...
As if this is an interpretation of a democracy,
Everyone should desire.
And should pariticipate in destruction more actively.
The psychopaths have been freed,
To show the power they do have.
Insanity has become the 'norm' these days.
Being absolutely crazed is a fashion statement.
Oh, it is the 'rage'.
Whether it is in the water!
Or in the food people are forced to eat.
Something creating a mindset focused on hate.
Is not an uplifting experience.
But this clearly can be observed...
As a direction our society has chosen to take!
In full,
Devastating...
Exuberance!

Sow Beauty Seeds Peace
sadly my talent
is not equal to the task
there is too much pain
sorrow to heal
too much poverty
misery to defeat
too much anger hate
bitterness to oppose
too many greed
wars to reveal stop
happy enlightened
minds embrace
search out
healing love peace
combine to sow
beauty seeds peace

Bombe Alaska
Bombe Alaska
(on the resignation of Sarah Palin as Alaska Governor)
I wonder what unearthly sign
told Sarah Palin to resign.
What line-up of the stars or snow
told her it was time to go?
Did the #1 dude get tough
and tell his wife enough’s enough?
Or was retreat a better plan
than public spats with Letterman?
While experts rush to make the call,
she may yet outfox us all.
Does she have a big agenda
for the twenty twelve Obama ender?
No, she’ll never dropp that bomb.
She’s just a feral soccer mom.
No more dreams of great omniscience.
She’s Palin into insignificance.
