I don't claim to be a prophet, but I do try to pay attention to things and connect the dots. Many times, this gets me in trouble as I see things coming that are beyond the horizon of folks who are not trying to pay attention and blissfully unaware of the dots scattered all around their feet. They just write me off as a nut or a bore or both when I sound off these warnings.
Later, when what I warned about goes down, they are panicked and act all surprised and get upset. Most of them don't remember that I saw it coming. They don't remember what I said was going to happen, they only remember that they have already decided I am a nut! And now that we are in this unforseen crisis, we have even less time to listen to nuts like that! Instead, we must show even more faith in those who failed to see this coming!
Yep. They just remember me as the guy who hallucinates, even after what I warned them about proves to be all too real. Hey, what I predicted three years ago and what just happened today are dots, two points of data, and like I said, these folks are not good at connecting them.
Anyway, I want to reach out and I thought a good way to get through to them was to try a prediction that has a bit shorter time frame, so that it will be easier to make the connections. Ready? Here goes.... This is Monday night, August 27, 2007. Within 10 days a huge scandal is going to rock the administration. It is going to involve Karl Rove and Alberto Gonzales conspiring to do one of two things: 1) attempting to place political operatives as U.S. attorneys in key spots like Arkansas in order to do things like use their office to mount political prosecutions on potential Democratic candidates or 2) Use the government's new surveillance powers under the "Patriot Act" to do some political spying, or both.
On this one, there are less dots to connect than usual. I will name only a couple of the most obvious. Karl Rove suddenly resigned with precious little explanation that made sense. It was very sudden. This Friday, Alberto Gonzales resigned in a phone call to President Bush, the story just made it out today. It also was sudden and little explanation was given. A phone call! Connect the dots. Something is going on folks. Something is about to hit the fan with such force that a fine coat of fecal matter is going to cover the rest of this Presidency.
As to what it could be, well more dots. What possible issues could connect Rove and Gonzales? Why, the matter of the U.S. Attorney removals has a line to Rove and Gonzales going right through it! The other possibility is that Gonzo was overzealous in the use of some executive branch operations with the new powers under the Patriot Act. Sure they are only supposed to be used against terrorists, but when you are that much in the clique, it is hard to remember sometimes that your political enemies are not always the Country's enemies.
Anyway, we will know by 8 September if I am connecting dots, or just hallucinating!
Du-u-u-u-ude! Better living through chemistry!
ohhh..yeah. Now there’s a decent and affordable thought ray reflecting roof.
I agree with you. And don’t worry about all the flaming Bushbots. They be a little short-fused these days. You know they’re over sensitive when they start referring to lunar eclipses.
He’s been zotted, so I will answer for him. Bushbot or not, I can recognize Kr*p when I see it......
Hey, where’d you get that picture of the woman in the minivan? ;oP
Great responses!
1) attempting to place political operatives as U.S. attorneys in key spots like Arkansas in order to do things like use their office to mount political prosecutions on potential Democratic candidates or 2) Use the government’s new surveillance powers under the “Patriot Act” to do some political spying, or both.
Time will tell......
Yup, time wounds all heals.........
No, no, no! President Bush is going to declare himself President for Life just before the 2008 elections! AND, he’s going to change the clocks, AND...Oh wait, wrong president...nevermind!
All I had to do was change one letter at a time, in a way that made sense
... Bush -- rush -- rust -- must -- most -- moot -- root -- riot
