Nancy Pelosi’s plan for becoming Speaker again
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2012/01/23/MNUE1MS9CK.DTL

House minority leader Nancy Pelosi is predicting that Democrats will recapture the House in November, a move that could open the possibility of the San Francisco Democrat regaining the speakership and becoming the first politician to return to that office after a defeat since Texas Democrat Sam Rayburn in 1955.

Pelosi, 71, needs a net gain of 25 Democrats nationwide, a goal she calls her “Drive for 25.” She has predicted gains as large as 35, produced in part by a Democratic romp through California, where the redrawing of legislative districts by a nonpartisan citizens commission promises the biggest shakeup in the state’s congressional delegation in two decades, along with gains in Texas, New York, Illinois and Florida.

Independent analysts said Pelosi is dreaming. Unless, that is, the Republican presidential nominee, whoever it is, implodes.

It’s fitting the culture that invented ‘mind expanding’ is in fact doing the exact opposite. Speaks volumes about the fallacies of their approach.

Popular folk medicine has said for years that a bottle of strawberry wine, a sunny day, some Shrooms, a 19 year old girl, and a little skinny dipping, can alleviate depression.

You mean it's not?

Interesting. There has been some similar research into “ayahuasca” a psychedelic brew made in some parts of Peru (and maybe elsewhere, I’m not sure).

There was also some work done in the U.S. in the 50’s and 60’s (IIRC) using small amounts of LSD in psychotherapy and treating addiction. As I recall, the experiments generally either didn’t work out or were conducted with such sloppy controls that they were basically useless.

Actually I think Reid, Pelosi & Debbie Blabbermouth have already been using magic mushrooms

[TigersEye]

"Psychedelics are thought of as 'mind-expanding' drugs so it has commonly been assumed that they work by increasing brain activity," said David Nutt of Imperial College London,...

The error in that assumption is that brain and mind are not the same thing.

I did magic mushrooms probably a couple dozen times back in the day. In the northwest we used to pick them in cow pastures...boy do some farmers have a fit when you're picking shrooms from their cowflops.

But that was long time ago, and I'm old and don't do things like that anymore.

I'd still like to try peyote some day, though...bucket list ;^)

veteran of scores of psylocibin trips in the 70s

they grew almost year round back then and cattlemen didn't yet have fungicide addled feed....

but while they were an interesting mind. expansion sort of organic acid test for me

i must strongly advise against newbies trying such intoxicants without countering agents like xanax in large doses nearby

it is simply too dangerous for flimsy or vulnerable psyche(s)

i have seen folks bug out and change markedly forever

and when that happens....it begs the question what was the point¿

even though there is no question self perception does unfold and one does get a keen....very keen sense of molecular connection and a sense of creation....a higher power...inside all of us

imagine the strongest marijuana one may have smoked multiplied by 100it yet that still falls short in explaining

those who have been there...if any...here..will know

still...despite the education i got from it and in some cases...a certain discipline

i would never wish it on my kids....or on those not seriously prepared

I'm not speaking of dried little caps made inti tea...but rather multiple fresh off the patty caps...purple and golden...

or large Owlsley...who died recently...level ..LSD doses....or real peyote buttons

none of that should ever be consumed by the unprepared

fair warning....and then some. just read about it if you must.....

I am fully, 100%, certain that Pelosi and Reid are on, and have been using, powerful psychoactive substances, on a doctor's prescription, for years and years.

Not trying to make a joke. They are medicated and they have been making decisions that affect your daily life.

Public officials should be forced to disclose any and all prescription medicine taken by them.
