Autobiography: Laguna Beach - In Southern California between Los Angeles and San Diego - We went to a Wedding and Stayed at the Famous Hotel Laguna.

My Niece had her Wedding at a Golf Course up on a Hill overlooking Laguna Beach. On the Road to Irvine. It was a Fancy Formal Affair and We got to meet all her in laws for the first time and we got to revisit her Mom's Family... There was a lot of Dancing at the Reception... BIG FUN... This was a Traditional Jewish Wedding and we all wore Yarmulkes out of respect... 

That Reminded me of Attending Martin and Adrienne's Wedding on a Boat in Long Beach Harbor. We Danced the "Chair Dance" where Four Men Held a Chair in the Air with the Bride sitting on it... That's something I've Never done before... 

Victoria and I stayed at the World Famous Laguna Hotel... It was "The Place to BE" during the Silent Movie Era and Charlie Chaplain Partied There... It was Elegant and WAY out of my price range but... Since someone else was Paying... I really had a Great Time... We also walked around downtown and saw the Many Art Galleries... after all, It's Famous as an Artist Colony...

Of Course, Laguna Beach is MOST Famous for being the Home of the Brotherhood of Eternal Love... They were the chemists that made "Orange Sunshine" LSD. They also Hired the Weather Underground to Break Dr. Timothy Leary out of Vacaville Prison and helped him escape to Africa to go Live with Eldridge Cleaver, a Black Panther... 


Ending the Afghan War is a Great Idea. Thank You, Joe Biden. ---> NOW, Let's Have 15 Years of Peace... Where the USA Does NOT Blow Up Random Countries For No Reason.

Thank YOU for Ending the Afghan War - Biden Harris - Now: 15 Years of Peace

After we Lost the War in Vietnam, We Had 15 Years of Peace Because The US Government Had "Learned Its Lesson." And then Ronald Ray Gun Took Sides in Nicaragua's Civil War... GEE, Does Anyone Remember Who Won? or Who The "Good Guys" Were? Or Where Nicaragua is on The Map?  I Do Remember that the CIA Imported Cocaine by the TON in Order to Finance That War... My Neighborhood Turned into a Crack Crazy Ghetto... 

Do We Get a Peace Dividend? Since the Taxpayers Will NO LONGER Be Spending Billions of Dollars on "The Great Game" What If We Refunded a Few Thousand Dollars PER PERSON To The Taxpayers?  

The Afghan People That Helped the Foreign Invaders (USA) are Traitors. They Fought Against Their Own People... I Support the "Stay in Afghanistan" Policy of the Taliban. All Afghan People Ought to Help Rebuild Their Country... It's a Very Similar Policy to the "Stay in Mexico" of the Trump Era that the SCOTUS Just Validated as a Dang Good Idea! Whatever Happens, I Sure Hope those People Don't Move into MY Neighborhood... Let 'em Go Live in DirkaDirkaStan... or Texas... 

Team America World Police Movie


Team America: World Police is a 2004 black comedy action film directed by Trey Parker and written by Parker, Matt Stone and Pam Brady, all of whom are also known for the popular animated television series South Park. Starring Parker, Stone, Kristen MillerMasasaDaran NorrisPhil HendrieMaurice LaMarche, Chelsea Marguerite, Jeremy Shada and Fred Tatasciore, the film is a satire of big-budget action films and their associated clichés and stereotypes, with particular humorous emphasis on the global implications of the politics of the United States. The title is derived from domestic and international political criticisms that the foreign policy of the United States frequently and unilaterally tries to "police the world".

The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch by Philip K Dick

What a Fantastic Book... I just spent a few hours totally out of contact with reality because I Lie Down, Close My Eyes and Listen... and Quite Often Fall Asleep and Dream... When I Wake Up I Rewind the Story Back to a Place I Remember Hearing... anyway... The Three Stigmata are: a Mechanical Hand, Steel Teeth and Robotic Eyes... If you see Those Things on a Friend, you KNOW That They Have Chewed Chew-Z... Written in 1964...

Donald Rumsfeld is Dead. WONDERFUL! Now He Cannot Do Evil Anymore... The War in Iraq Made NO Sense Even in George Bush The Son's "Backwards World" - Totally Insane!

On 9/11/2001 Saudi Arabians Attacked the USA but We COULD NOT ATTACK THEM so we Attacked a Different Country that Had Nothing at All to Do with 9/11, Had No Weapons of Mass Destruction and Had No Ties to Al-Qaeda... BUT... Iraq was Weak and We Could Blow them Up Without Making our Masters in Saudi Arabia Angry... After All... We Were Addicted to Saudi OIL and NOTHING Could Stop The Flow... Not Even Hijacked Airplanes Flying into the World Trade Center...

Donald Rumsfeld sold Weapons to Iraq at the same time the USA was selling weapons to Iran...

Mainstream Media News is selling FEAR again... This time it's North Korea. I do not support a brand new pointless war there... We were fooled into believing there was a need for a pointless war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Nicaragua, Panama and Vietnam... How many times can they fool us? To Quote George Bush... "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... ... Won't Get Fooled Again!"

Now that your good deed for the day has been done...

Remember that when enough people speak out against the madness, laws change... policy changes... wars end... That is the historical lesson of Vietnam... Due to public pressure, President Nixon ended the war. 
That is the historical lesson of Iraq... Due to public pressure, President Obama ended the Iraq War... That is the historical lesson of legalization of Marijuana in Colorado and Washington State... The Voters Spoke... 
WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

a Google Image search returns zero pictures of an airplane flying into the Pentagon on 9/11/2001... Why? 

This Image Shows What Colin Powell's 2003 UN Press Conference Would Have Looked Like. He Was Promoting the Insane Bombing of Civilians in Iraq... Just Like Pablo Picasso's Guernica Painting... That was COVERED BY SHEETS so it would Not be Visible During the Press Conference...

Colin Powell gave a Press Briefing at the United Nations
where he explained the Reasons for going to War in Iraq.
Press Briefings are always held in front of Picasso's Painting "Guernica" that depicts Insane death from the sky.

Powell was proposing starting a war that would have a lot of
Insane Death from the Sky... 

SO HE HAD JANITORS COVER THE PAINTING AND HE SPOKE IN FRONT OF A WHITE SHEET...

A Brief History of the War In Iraq. OOPS, We Blew Up The Wrong Country. On 9/11 Fourteen (14) SAUDI ARABIAN Hijackers Flew Airplanes into The World Trade Center. Five (5) Were NOT Saudis.

George W. Bush (the Son) felt that He Could NOT go to War with The ACTUAL people that Caused 9/11 so he had the CIA write FALSE Reports so he could start a War Against Iraq. Years Later We Learned that Iraq Had No WMD, Had No ties to Al Qaeda and Had Nothing at all to do with 9/11.

We were Enslaved to Saudi Arabia because we buy their OIL. If We Stopped Buying, Gas Prices would Double, The Cost of Transporting Food (and everything else) to Grocery Stores would Skyrocket and We would Experience Economic Collapse.

However, Bush Knew that Iraq Had NO Atomic Weapons so they were an Easy Target ( they couldn't fight back by Nuking the USA)... Most Americans can't tell the Difference between One Arabian Person and Another so... We invaded...  and it was VERY EXCITING to watch on TV. The News Networks Showed Green Night Vision Films of Bombs Exploding... I Remember that it LOOKED Like a Video Game.


Before the War Started there were MASS Protests Against The War WORLDWIDE. I participated in a March in the City of Eureka, California where about 10% of the Entire Population Was In the Streets... Chanting, Playing the Drums and Waving Protest Signs. We WERE NOT FOOLED by the Fake CIA Reports.


We Protested Every Year At Least Once a Year Until Barack Obama was Elected on a Promise to End the War. Yes, Eventually Everyone WOKE UP. 


The USA Used Depleted Uranium Bullets and Shells In The Iraq War... The Metal Uranium is Much Heavier than Steel and is forms an ARMOR PIERCING Bullet. What Happens is that the Uranium Catches of Fire and Burns a Hole thru the Steel Plates of Tanks, Cars and Trucks. Therefore we left a Vast Quantity of Radioactive Waste in Iraq and That has Caused an Increase in Miscarriages... A Classic Example of Genocide. Those People Over Their Will Not Be Having as Many Children and THEIR GENES Will Not Be Represented in The Future. The Uranium will be Radioactive and Poisonous for thousands of YEARS. AND... At No Extra Cost... We Found a Place to Store the Atomic Waste From Our Nuclear Power Industry.

It Should be Noted that the Evil Triangle consisted of George W Bush, Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney. Other people who were accomplices to Mass Murder were Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell and The Director of Central Intelligence...George Tenet. 


Do the Math... The Killing of American Soldiers Dramatically Reduced about 1973.

Anti War Protest in Laguna Beach

Believe it or not Cheney and Rumsfeld have been at the CENTER of Washington DC Political Power for over 20 years. Cheney worked for President Ford... He was Hired by Rumsfeld... 


The First thing Dick Cheney did for Ford was Participate in the Cover Up of the Supposed Suicide of Dr Frank Olson of MKULTRA. He arranged for the Widow to receive a large Cash Payment...

There were TWO Wars in Iraq. The First One was Commanded by George H W Bush (The Father). He just passed away... 


Rest In Peace George Herbert Walker Bush... 


"He was a very Competitive Athlete. Especially in HORSESHOES." - said Colin Powell. 


He lived in Houston Texas. So, even if You are The Former President of the United States, HURRICANES AND FLOODING rain on you too... 


He was a Fantastic Commander in Chief during the First Gulf War. We had a Specific Mission and When It Was Accomplished, We Left... EXCEPT for the Base in Saudi Arabia that provided Support for Our Combat Troops. We Stayed There For Years... That Base REALLY ANGERED OSAMA BIN LADEN... And That was the REASON Osama Destroyed the World Trade Center in New York City on 9/11/2001... 



Protest Marches at the White House against the War in Iraq by George Bush the Father. I was on TV... on LSD...



During the Gulf War I went to many protest marches at Lafayette Park across the street from the White House. We played the drums in order to annoy George the Father and disturb his sleep. One day we all walked to the Lincoln Memorial. I had taken an acid trip with my next door neighbors the night before and during the protest I was still tripping. The parade permit was for a certain time period and it expired while I was there. Many people sat down in the middle of the street... to make a point... the protesters that were in the street got arrested and were hauled away in buses to jail. Those of us who were on the sidewalk were not arrested. I was faced with a choice... to stand in the street or stay on the sidewalk... LSD makes events and decisions much more significant. The police were dressed in StormTrooper outfits and Big Black Boots... Like the Blue Meanies in Yellow Submarine... Anyway, I selected to NOT get arrested... Many sat down in the street... but not me. I stand by that decision today. Daniel Ellsberg DID get arrested.

When we were in front of the White House I was interviewed by the TV News. A couple of days later another neighbor of mine said that she saw me "Make a Jackass of Myself" on TV. I told her thank you, because if you thought I was a Jackass, I was doing the right thing...

On another day I played the drums with some Buddhist Monks. They were playing paddle drums in a very odd rhythm. I asked them why they played that odd rhythm and they said it focused the attention... They had to focus so they would be able to play it and THAT freed the mind to go into a meditative trance...

I also met Dick Gregory walking down the street in DC during those protests. I noticed that all the other people on the street were looking at this Old Black Man... Heads were turning... I Said: "I feel like something is terribly wrong in this country, but I'm not sure what." He said. "Thank You for your Opinion." In retrospect, I didn't say the most brilliant thing but... that's what I said.

We were the minority of people in the country... Most people thought that war was a good idea. Iraq had invaded Kuwait...

Years later a different War in Iraq was waged by George Bush the Son. That was a total disaster and eventually lead to Obama being Elected President... He promised to end the War. I went to MANY anti-war protests in Eureka about that War.

Even Now when Everyone Agrees that the War In Iraq was Astonishingly Stupid Idea... Candidates are criticized for Protesting Against The War.

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/09/its-2018-and-candidates-are-still-running-attack-ads-against-iraq-war-protesters/


It’s 2018 and Candidates Are Still Running Attack Ads Against Iraq War Protesters...  Perhaps it’s time for a new strategy.

Neocon Taking Head now hired to censor Facebook. The Weekly Standard Magazine is to determine What is Fake and What is Real on Facebook. 

Bill Kristol, a frequent Talking Head on MSNBC, is an EDITOR and Author for the Weekly Standard. Most Famous for being wrong about the Iraq War, he is a commentator stating is opinions as if he was a "Wiseman Pundit." While in fact he is "not very bright."


While Millions of people protested against the War in Iraq BEFORE IT STARTED... The Weekly Standard Editor was totally fooled into Actually Supporting the War and Going on TV to Beat The Drums. 

Supposed "Wiseman Pundit" is actually an Idiot who Believed all the False Propaganda published by George W Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.  "Aw Shucks, I Didn't Know They Were Lying to Me... I'm Just A Simple Country Bumpkin and Don't Know Much About Things Like That." - Quotations Of Billy (The Kid) CrystalMeth.

Since August 15th 1945 the US Military has NEVER defended the country. Not once...



That day was VJ Day. Victory over Japan in World War Two... To the Veterans that fought in WW2, Thanks... That was an important Victory against a real enemy. Since Then we have invaded many countries for no valid reason.

There was a need to defend the country on 9/11/2001 but the military failed completely. Civilians brought down the airplane in Pennsylvania... 

Read History, Learn.

Ever since VJ DAY all the wars have been marketing tools to sell weapons. Why not cut the defense budget in half... Refund the Wasted money to the Taxpayers... We keep on going to other countries and choosing sides it THEIR civil wars. Why not let foreigners figure out solutions to their Own problems... OR... NOT figure out solutions to their own problems... I couldn't care less what they do over there. It's THEIR country...

Since 1973 all soldiers have been Volunteers... Why would anyone Volunteer to go Kill People for Corporate Profit?

We are STILL in Afghanistan and Iraq... Why? What possible Mission could there be?

Imagine if we had spent that money on something useful?




The Punk Rock Band that played at the end of the protest march called for a moment of silence for the Soldiers that lost their lives in the Iraq War...

Then they asked for a MOMENT OF NOISE for those same soldiers...
and played random angry sounds!


Deadheads for Obama
