END OF THE FOURTH TURNING

Presidential Address to the Nation
President Pro Tem
Former Secretary of Education

My fellow Americans

I speak to you today from the historic heart of our republic in Washington DC. The last year has seen such pain and misery for our country but at last we see and end to the conflict that has devastated not only America but the whole world. With the Accord signed by the new and old governments we will see a draw down in combat and in mass destruction readiness across the globe. The world has seen pain like no other time in history. Cities Lay in ruin and the people of the world cry out for peace. Peace is now at hand.
The first nine months of combat saw a replay of the second world war in which men and machine fought across the globe. More resources we consumed or destroyed in that time then all the worlds wars in history. Tank battles and sea battles and men in trenches fighting for what they believed was right.

We know know just how wrong everybody was.

When the war finally came to American shores it unleashed more death than every single war in American history. The targeting of 8 American cities resulted in the destruction of 7 of them. Our people continue to die due to the radiological affects of these weapons. We will take a long time to heal but we will heal. 3 of the cities will be decontaminated and rebuilt. We are planning to isolate and quarantine the other 4 cities as not viable for reconstruction at this time. It is triage plain and simple.
What we do know from the missile that targeted Washington and was shot down is that 4 enemies took part in the plot. Evidence shows that the Nuclear material was supplied by North Korea and the missile technology came from Iran. The ships used to launch the attack was funded and flagged by Saudi Arabia through many fake companies. The personnel who built the weapons and pushed the buttons were a cross section of radical Islamic Jihad’s from 21 different countries. Even American citizens were involved.

I state that again, even American citizens were involved.

The broad selection of people who carried out this attack all had one thing in common. A religion of Death and Hatred fundamentally incompatible with modern life on this planet. That is why Mecca is now a crater in the desert. The 3 missiles used 1 from the United States 1 from China and 1 from Russia will leave for all time a monument and a warning to the peoples of the world that hate will bring hate and death. The other 7 cities of the world we struck were destroyed because of irrefutable evidence of complicity in the attack. You unleashed this hell. We delivered it back.

The bombs were not the only thing that caused destruction and death in our country. It seems we did a good job of that ourselves. In the 93 days since the attack more Americans were killed from riots and shortages than from the weapons. The systems that deliver food and energy stopped. Instead of banding together to help one another we turned on our neighbors with fist and knife and gun. We forgot what it means to be Americans. We forgot what it means to belong to a community. And most idiotically we took out our collective anger on those most able to help us through these times.

Reports across the country all tell the same story. Murder of local officials and looting on a countrywide scale. The people most targeted seem to be a small group of Americans called Preppers. These people through religious tenant or just good old common sense had prepared for a situation like this but local populations rose up with anger. They thought that because someone prepared for the worst they must have had something to do with the attack. Tens of Thousands were murdered by mobs. The very citizens needed to rebuild are almost gone. And we did this.
America did it to its self.

We set up a system of Government that was broken to begin with. It allowed men in high places to loot the treasury. It allowed men in high places to grow a constituency that was beholden to the Government itself though entitlements and outright bribery. We had a population who’s sole purpose was to keep those in power IN POWER. A population of voters who lived to consume and yet never to produce. This was the downfall of the republic. An outside enemy surly struck us well but not unto death. That we did to ourselves.

Hindsight is for the most part 20-20 and in the clarity of history we see the architects of the war. We surly had well meaning people who agreed to the redistribution of wealth due to a need to help others but as we dissect that last 20 years we see a trend and it is horrific in its nature. We see now the programs to help others we just a way to pilfer from the public treasury. Banks and corporations stole money from America for the sole purpose of a few more decimal points on a ledger. What did it get them? It is all toilet paper now. Sure some got away. You will not get far. We know who you are. We have the records. As one of my last executive orders I have dispatched special forces across the world with orders to kill on sight everyone one of you bastards that brought us to this point.

Is this legal? We are so past legal I do not care anymore. You have destroyed our country. We are going to drag you down with us.

This is why we are now a fractured county. We have 4 different people claiming to be the president of 3 different sections of what was the United States of America. I am the only cabinet member in the chain of succession laid out in the Presidential Succession Act of 1947.This leaves me with the title president but for the most part I am the President of Washington DC and what little Military that is left and did not mutiny. That is why I make the following pronouncement:

I hear by call for a new continental congress to form a new government. Our founders of the old Government knew this would be a possibility, nay probability. We shall gather together and write out a new constitution. A constitution that will hopefully prevent this from ever happening again. And yet as a think on it man being a flawed being perhaps we can never get it right. Perhaps we are doomed to replay generational the mistakes of the old.

The following statement statement is for the rest of the world:

We are done with you. Yes we wronged you but we were driven by vain men who harmed us as well as you. Even the interventions across the globe were nothing more than a way to loot the treasury. In the guise of democracy and freedom we brought war and death. We are sorry. I am sorry.

But we will not be picked over like a dead animal. We are alive and we are able to protect ourselves. We are at this moment recalling every combat unit, every embassy, every American citizen who wants to rebuild the nation and build a future. You will do well to remember that our farmers at one point fed our country and almost 20% of the rest of the world. We still have our agricultural roots although they are buried deep. We will uncover and once again feed a billion people but we will need time. We will need friends. We reach out to those who offer true friendship as we rebuild.

To those of you who may plot more attacks on our country. At this point you risk the total annihilation of our species. If you truly want to see what a wounded America is capable of. I will push the damn button.

Excellent work.

Two points:

1) A president who only controls DC doesn’t control any nukes. They are far from DC.

2) The dumbest preppers might be targets, but the smarter ones will be the honey badgers. It may not look that big, but you better stay the fuck away.

I think this is correct except the widespread targeting of police and preppers. That will happen only in the “gun free” zones of the blue cities/counties.

Sadly, I fear this will be our future. Toss in the instability in Pakistan, Europe being overrun by “refugees” and and economic crash and it’s gonna be epic.

But hey! Hillary is testifying on the Benghazi hearing and her makeup as clearly been caked on for this last round and the Dems are running serious cover for her so its all good.

Terrific find, Jimski. Only thing I didn’t like about it was that Washington DC somehow survived.

rather optimistic in my view. i see the dark ages for those who may survive. the country would likely return to small enclaves of tribes or clans.

I thought at my age near retirement I would be buying golf clubs and Bermuda shorts. But instead, just got 1250 more rounds of Federal HST Tactical .45ACP.

I’ve prepped for this very scenario! I’ve stated many times war will come before the dollar collapse. Why? because the U.S. Dollar is the World reserve currency and maintaining that status is a matter of National Security! This Country will put its Military to use to defend the dollar. Prep accordingly

Nonsense; our enemies have hundreds of ICBMs, SLBMs and nuclear cruise missiles not to mention fractional orbiting nuclear missiles, “backpack” and container nukes. To think only 7 US cities would be destroyed in an exchange or that WDC would only be targeted by one missile or that we could shoot any down is moronic. Jimmy and Blow Job Bill etc implemented so many safeguards that I believe that in a well planned surprise attack, we could be decapitated and able to make only a feeble counterattack. But I’m glad for the article because even that Pollyanna fiction might make a few people think about what is coming (thanks to the Liberals and the NEOCONs).

This is a response (# 6700665) from one of Zero Hedge’s long-time reader-contributors (cougar_w) to the latest Jim Quinn/Burning Platform column carried by ZH (titled, “Back From The Future: A Presidential Address At The End Of The Fourth Turning”):

“This is how it would really go:

Fellow Americans. Fellow citizens of the world. Fellows of my species. I come before you today a humble man, humiliated — as I think we all have been — by our shared delusion and hubris. Whoever it was thought this level of conflict would benefit them or anyone was utterly insane. Obviously. And yet it was a conflict born of a hundred smaller conflicts, each born of a hundred grievances, each grievance born of dozens or hundreds or thousands of years of obsession, selfishness and personal dishonesty. The final conflict that ended all our dreams at once was the child of countless parents. We have wronged each other at all times and in all the ages of man, wrong each other for every possible reason but mostly out of greed or intolerance. We all did it and we did it all the time from before the murky and lost beginnings of our conquest of the world. Which conquest as well has been our undoing. We have erred. My nation has erred. My government has erred and I in my own time have erred. And I know it because I was there when I did it and even then I could have taken another path but I did not. This conflict therefore is mine. Just as it is all of ours. For all time until the end of all human memory and dream of memory is vanished from the surface of this world, it is mine and yours and ours. So great is the depth of our failure. I am here therefore to make a final act of leadership. My next act as President of the United States of America — is to dissolve it. Let the grievances end here, with this act, let all of dusty history consume what we were and entomb in forgetfulness our many and sundry sins. May our enemies celebrate with songs and dances our dissolution if this gives them comfort. They will be dancing on the bones of their own dead when they do. My call to dissolve the union of these states is not any thing that I can pen. There is no Supreme Court to test it, no legislature to debate it, few surviving states of the 50 we had left to ratify it. It is a charge I place into the heart of every American, and into the heart of every human who lives. To forget America. To stay true to your community and your creed, to follow your own heart as per the instructions of your soul. But not as an American, as a human. Free of these abstractions, free of grievance, free of the fetters of the pursuit in illusory freedom through arms. Forget America, and through your own struggle be free. If you are so driven, create your own land upon the giving earth, call it what you will or call it nothing at all but simply home. But please do not call it America. America has fallen. It had fallen long ago, but we simply hadn’t noticed. God bless you all, God keep you and guide your hand and heart in all peace and good-will. Whatever that God is to you may you practice mercy and charity and immortal grace before the eyes of the universe. Which universe I think though we have strayed loves us still. I hope so. I love you all, my fellow creatures under the stars and heavens. I love you all. Be safe and love one another as hard and as often as you can. Good bye. Good bye.”

That’s some good fiction. I wish it would work out as well as that, but I’m too cynical in my old age.

In my mind it would be more like a recording played every half hour over the radios and TV’s that are still functioning. The Internet will be dead for us. The recording will be a voice sternly reminding us that martial law is still in effect and the curfew will still be enforced. The voice will tell us to check with local officials for the address and times of the food distribution centers operated by the National Guard. Relief efforts are continuing and they’ll get to you soon, please be patient.

Meanwhile, whatever military actions that are being performed will be known only to the locals. There will be no news but what is presented by the government. Ham radio operators will be silenced as quickly as possible.

Any and all news broadcasts will be filled with sound bites of information illustrating that the overseas enemy is defeated, we are strong, most people are co-operating and doing as well as can be expected and the domestic terrorists are being routed out.

………They’ve had decades to get ready for this, and modify their plans according to the times. They have militarized the police and have armed practically every department in the government. They have made large purchases of long term storage food and ammunition. Does anyone really believe that TPTB are going to walk away from their empire and let us common people have a home-grown government? Really?

Maybe I’m too cynical and I should just shut the hell up. Maybe the younger people of good character will prevail. I certainly hope so, I really do.

Gotta agree with you there, Lysander. The last person in any kind of national authority will be busy grabbing at every possible resource in an attempt to hang on to power and the accoutrements of power.

I’m not buying the whole “preppers being mauled by mobs” thing. More like mobs being mowed down by heavily armed doomsteaders. I’m sure some fortifications would be overrun, but all in all they would survive. Especially the really low profile ones.

I think the article is pure bull shit.

However, I like the idea of some American cites being A-Bombed. Philly, Newark, NY, Chicago, LA, St Louis… you fill in the rest

@Dutchman…Let’s see…what seven cites would I consider expendable? Miami. Newark. Jersey City. Paterson NJ. Trenton NJ. Detroit. Chicago. Gary IN. East St Louis.

Jim lives around Phily, I know people in TX, LA, San Fran, Atlanta (but I don’t think they would mind being sacrificed to destroy that pest hole—I’ll have to ask first, though), I like Boston, Anywhere in CT would ruin the flow of my day, I have friends in VT…….hmmm. I’ll have to think about this some more.

hm the 7 cities that are expendable would be D.C and the cities with a federal reserve branch
Wait that’s more than 7 ahhh that’s what MIRVS are for )
read zero hedge daily and woodpile report is back up , and couger w posts are usually interesting . also read Lew Rockwell , tshtf , and prolly another 10 different web sites
including MSM , and the overall picture I get is people are PISSED OFF with the unaccountable bullshit from the so called governments! Doesn’t matter what country it is , the average citizen is pissed .
And TBP is a required daily reading !! Most times its a refreshing breather from the world of mass fluoridated, HFCS consuming world . Especially when im introduced to a new thought that I have never had makes me think which seems to be sorely lacking in the world today .
Oh and turn off the talmudvision that supports the privately owned central banks of the world and get closer to what HSF envisions . His vision is way better than the 1984 esc crap that is being taught now .And to those I missed , all of your souls shine )) unless your a banker fuck and that makes you a mortal enemy of everyone else )))

Hey, here’s the best example. Ever play Fallout 3? They have these random recordings of the self-proclaimed leader (Malcolm McDowell) talking about rebuilding the country and stuff and nobody listens or cares and they shoot down the drones that play the messages? That’s a much more likely future.

Wow, Jimski, who’d thunk you had such an imagination? Thanks for sharing it with is.

I, now and only recently, REFUSE to accept this as “our,” or the world’s fate. Just because we see our past in a linear fashion, does not actually mean it was. Our future doesn’t have to be linear either.

I’ve been doing a bunch of out-of-the-box reading and thinking lately. Things are being brought to my attention through the damnedest ways, like researching average blood sugar levels leading me to a substance named Orgonite which led me to all sorts of other, big, some might say crazy, thinking.

Weird? yes. Divine? maybe. Enlightening and mind-opening? You betcha’.

Anyway, my heart, gut, soul, pineal gland (call these gut feelings/beliefs whatever you are comfy with), is telling me there ARE other options. Options that those of us “educated” under the tyranny that has controlled us for centuries are intentionally keeping from us.

Peace all. This, or other dark versions, don’t have to be our fates, and I truly, now, believe they won’t be.
