We have entranced ourselves and fallen under a self-created spell if we imagine that the past exists in a solid, objective way. To quote Wheeler “It is wrong to think of that past as ‘already existing’…..the past has no existence except as it is recorded in the present.” When we become convinced that the past exists in a solid way, we solidify it in our imagination as being that particular way, which will thereby create compelling evidence that proves the rightness of our point of view (that the past really is that way). When we imagine that the past is a particular way, for example, this conviction effects our present moment experience AS IF the past really was that way, which just confirms to us our conviction that the past REALLY IS that way, which just makes the past seem even more AS IF it really was that way, ad infinitum.This is to fall into a self-created and infinitely self-confirming feedback loop that is synchronistic and atemporal in its operation and thereby has the nature of a self-fulfilling prophecy. We have unwittingly literally hypnotized ourselves by our own power of effecting reality by the way we observe it...KEEP PUSHING AND FIGHTING, We are 'lifting the veil' OFF this fundamental issue and steadily breaking through into consensus reality- at the Ohio Capital last saturday the response from motorists was OverWhelming! ALSO, official Government document, Declaration of Intent to Nullify Ohio's Electors as chosen by biased Blackwell and send another set of electors representing the "Will of The People"

STAND DOWN Emerging Theocratic Dictatorship DAILY PROTESTS in Columbus
CultureJamCleveland
2004-12-06 8:21 PM![]()
Everyday this week people are gathering and marching around the Ohio Statehouse to maintain citizen survelliance on a brazen attempt to steal an election, in effect ending Democracy and installing one-party rule. Articulate attorney Cliff Arneback, from Alliance for Democracy(co-founded by Ronnie Dugger-from The Nation Magazine) is leading a lawsuit that will overturn the Ohio election, WITHOUT a Recount, as evidence from southern Ohio will show that votes were moved from Kerry's column directly into Mr. Bush's. He started his speeches last Saturday by saying," First of all I begin by saying LAW AND ORDER IS ON OUR SIDE." This is not partisan, as an investigator one is obligated to follow the leads and uphold the law* very critical when voting rights and laws are trampled upon and the Election2004 is proving to BE undeniably a Sham. Show up to support this action, speak out to support the recount, stop Blackwell, insist he step aside and show up to HELP make the crackpot Big Media do their job and get with the program instead of deviously trying to program with perception management by establishment apartchicks and 'head space for rent" propagandists. Paid to sell Death in Iraq and now for whatever reason afraid to tell us something is terribly wrong with our democratic process and hiding the fact that we now live, work and breathe in a de-facto Dictatorship, friendly, charming, campy and with a sly smile, THOUGH!
