Guest Post by Eric Peters
Voting amounts to answering that question about whether you’ve stopped beating your wife.
There’s no winning. Best to keep your mouth shut.
But – god help me – I may just vote for Trump.
Enthusiastically.
Not because I like Trump, but because I love what he has done to Jeb! and Lyin’ Ted (the next-best thing to Jeb!) and even more satisfying, the entire cohort of oily, cap-toothed “neoconservative” warfare staters.
In particular Billy Kristol, publisher of The Weekly Standard – the bible of chickenhawks who love war so long as someone else does the dying.
And the killing.
Guys like Kristol (and Rush and Hannity and Mittens, too) never get their own hands wet. The want blood on other people’s hands – while they chortle in psychopathic ecstasy on Fox News, probably masturbating each other under the table at the thought of it all.
I know this bastard Kristol personally. Well, I know personally about his oleaginous machinations; his Cheshire Cat wheedling behind the scenes, the way he fed Talking Points to house-trained “conservative” media organs like The WashingtonTimes, where I worked for a number of years as an editorial writer and columnist.
It was an eye-opening experience.
I saw the man behind the curtain.
And his name was (and still is) Billy.
Oh, he manifests in different guises. George (times two) and Dick (several Dicks) and Don and Ted and Paul and Mittens. But it is always Billy’s voice emanating from their traps.
Billy and his friends… 
How these people got the power they have to direct public opinion (well, “conservative” opinion – by directing the editorial policy of “conservative” media) is something I have yet to grok.
But power they most definitely have.
I used to come to work very early in the morning, hours before the others. It’s when I’m at my best for writing. Being there first happened to mean I was also the guy who checked the office fax machine first (we had fax machines back in the ‘90s). Every day – literally – there would be faxes from something called The Project for The New American Century – an entity almost no one outside of the inner circles of DC politics had ever even heard of at the time.
It was run by Billy.
These faxes urged War and more War. And more Security, too. America must “rebuild” her defenses (read: chuck more money at the Offense Industry, which already consumed more of the federal budget than any other item and needed “rebuilding” in the same way that Marlon Brando needed another triple angus Thickburger) and “take out” (always the tough guy talk from guys far from tough themselves) “evildoers” and “enemies of freedom” such as Saddam (always referred to by his first name).
Guess where George The Elder got that?
The same place his son got that.
Whatever ideas these two had, they got them by way of Billy. It seemed the entire “conservative” Republican establishment sat like the RCA dog in front of Billy’s Victrola … keen to hear their master’s voice.
Very curious.
The faxes themselves were not odd. All sorts of faxes came over the transom. What was very peculiar was the way the editorial page staff – the way the editorial page editor – treated anything from Billy much the same as the Israelites received injunctions from Moses.
Billy’s talking points became editorials – almost verbatim – the very next day.
Why, I wondered? Does Billy possess photographs of the editorial page editor and a goat, together as one in the moonlight?
I never found out exactly why Billy wielded such influence. But the fact remained: he did. For all practical purposes, he was the editorial page editor of The Times. Which was in those days what Fox News is today – the front organization for the Republican Party.
Or rather, the elements that controlled it.
Then came 911 – interestingly named and even more interesting that it occurred on that particular day, to make that particular naming possible. Billy got his wish.
War, forever.
Now comes Trump – threatening, almost believably, to end the wars. To focus on – gasp! – America first.
This has Billy throwing a conniption fit. He is so enervated by Trump that he threatens to back not merely Mittens (a Chimp with better hair) or some other safe bet toady… but Hillary. Which is gratifying to me because it exposes Billy’s true self.
What he really is.
Which is about as “conservative” as I am short.
And I am six feet three.
The Long Con is genuinely threatened. The co-opting of the “conservative” political side off the aisle by Manchurians like Billy. They figured they could beat the Bible a little bit, bash some fags (well, they let Goyish tools like the Chimp and Lyin’ Ted do that for them) and the people not on the political left would faithfully support them and thus the Wars because … well, what choice did they have?
Aren’t you proud to be an American? Where at least you know you’re “free”?
Now they have a choice.
And Billy is beside himself.
Which ought to fill every American’s heart – left or right, liberal or conservative – with transcendent joy. If Trump’s victory means the shattering of Billy’s power, the end of the neo-con con, then I will not only vote for The Donald, I will put a sign in my front yard for The Donald. I would lend a hand – and my pen. For free.
All he needs to do is ask.
Getting rid of Billy – all the Billys – is as crucial at this moment as throwing sand on a fire before the thing gets out of hand.
If that takes Trump, so be it.
” such as Saddam (always referred to by his first name).”
Yep, and Wobbly always pronounced it ‘Sodom’.
“Why, I wondered? Does Billy possess photographs of the editorial page editor and a goat, together as one in the moonlight?”
Too funny and too true.
“Getting rid of Billy – all the Billys – is as crucial at this moment as throwing sand on a fire before the thing gets out of hand………….If that takes Trump, so be it.”
Well, my old pal eric has apparently turned Trumpeteer, maybe with a lower case “t”, but he has made a change, apparently. I’m not totally convinced, but then I’m a dedicated non-voter.
I’m going to ask him about it later today.
Billy Kristol NeoCon Journalist & MSM Talking Head and Lloyd Blankfein the Bankster of Goldman-Sachs are just doing their god’s work. Of course their friends are your enemy and vice versa. The True God loves the once Great Christian America and says so; ref Youtube “Trump Chosen by God to Stop American Destruction Astounding 2011 Prophecy” via Lt Mark Taylor but just published Apr2016 by TruNews. Mark said God told him He wants to destroy The Evil System that has taken over America and Restore what they have taken from US. The Church has failed so God wants to raise up an Army of Citizen Christians and create a Revival that spreads around the world. Trump will succeed no matter what Obama and The Kingdom of Darkness tries. Trump will appoint five SCOTUS Judges and God will restore America. My personal gut feeling is that Trump and Putin could restore the Reagan and Gorbachev relationship whereas China’s persecution of Christians will end badly.
Robert kagan, billy’s partner at PNAC, already stated months ago he would back hillary over trump.
Excellent. Here are the facts neatly laid out. Like him or hate his hair, every American worthy of the name must vote for him if only to rid us of vermin like Kristol.
BTW, Eric, thanks for pulling the curtain off kristol a little bit. Kristol and kagan are the beating neocon heart. Most people don’t know that
“every American worthy of the name must vote for him”
Whatever, sausage. Polish his shoes while you’re down there.
Serious Question For Trumpeteers:
So the word is The Donald is going to audit the Fed, expose the real owners, and run them out of Dodge. He will make the debt of 19 Trillion disappear by doing so and this will cause the European Union to implode and break apart. Next he will take over the issuing of our currency with a silver backed dollar (God only knows where he will find that much silver).
My question, will China and the BOJ for example just write off trillions of our debt without a world war and will the banksters just pack up and leave quietly in this world of super hero fantasyland?
Comes a time, bea, to take your fingers out of your ears, quit rolling around on the floor, and retake stock of the situation. Men and women are preparing to take back the country. We would welcome your participation. We could use you. People are figuring this out. One by one, for any plausible reason, doesn’t matter. Everyone’s reasons are fine. Bitchin time is so yesterday. Buckle up your chinstrap, and hit the hole. We got work to do. If your right, so be it. Those of us who tried went down swinging. If i’m right, and you did nothing but mealy mouth and obstruct, you got nothing to be proud of.
Star, Star, Star……
Stop the sermon and answer the question. How do we default on other countries and not end up in war? Trying to heap shame on old Bea for asking what happens when we stick our foot in the bear trap is not unreasonable.
Do you really want this for your next president?

Not heaping shame, bea. You’re alright with me. I never namecall on you. But stop nitpicking. Any bright person can come up with questions i can’t answer. When your day consists of solving problems, a good deal of the time you don’t know the answer. You only know the problem. But you still have to deal with it. And find an answer. There’s nothing scary about our debt. There’s nothing scary about our liabilities. Let’s peel the cover off, and see who we owe, and why. I’ve said for years we can pay china back in full with the stroke of a few computer keys. China is a niggertown. Cut the flow of money their way, and they aren’t what they thought they were. Look at paul ryan. He thought he had leverage. Not quite accurate. China is no different. We hold all the cards
OK Admin- Do you think the banksters will roll over for a reality tv star and leave town? And do you think we can avoid WWIII when we give everybody around the globe a massive haircut?
Why do you think Trump just named a Goldman Sachs Partner/ Ex Soros Employee as his national finance manager? Did we stop judging people by the company they keep all of a sudden?
Bea
I’m just sitting back and enjoying the spectacle. I have no clue what will happen. We are in year 8 of a 15 to 20 year Fourth Turning, so the nasty stuff is yet to come. Not much I can do about it.
Admin- I think I’m going to start buying silver ahead of the new silver backed dollar in our future.
Star says, “Any bright person can come up with questions I can’t answer”……….
I’m going to be kind Star because I like you. Let me know how the bear trap works out for you.
Bea, i’m usually pretty quiet on the Trump stuff here. It gets boring, plus i’m not zealot enough to feel the need to defend what can stand on it’s own merits. What has fired me up the last couple of days is the Ron Paul thing. I have read Ron Paul and followed Ron Paul’s philosophy for a long time. And he turned out to be a coward or a fraud or both. We have a chance to fix some things. Certainly not everything on every douchebags laundry list, but maybe some important things. I don’t see any other alternatives. Doesn’t seem like you do, either. I’m not a lesser of two evils guy. Trump might prove me wrong, in a big way. So what? But he’s the only person saying he will tackle this. I’m glad he’s going to get the chance. You’ve ridiculed me for a long time because i think this is fixable. I still do. We’re going to find out. But bad mouthing what so far looks like the real thing gets us nowhere, even if you are ultimately proven correct. Are you part of the problem (yes), or part of the solution?
Eric Peters stops short of identifying Billy Kristol as a Jew. Neoconservatism or more accurately neocons, which is the polar opposite of conservatism, was founded and is currently funded and led by Jews. Jewish control of the Federal Reserve, the banking and financial sector, the MSM, the Hollywood smut machine, the State Department, most of Congress, and the Supreme Court is the elephant in the kitchen that very few are prepared to discuss. The kitchen – in fact our entire home – is being smashed to smithereens yet the silence on who controls the Deep State from behind the curtains is deafening. It is said that the truth will set us free but people must seek truth and not be silenced by an imposed, tyrannical political correctness.

Move over Star, I just got a brick right between the eyes !!
While reading a VT article I noticed that The Donald has issued his tax reform guidelines and upon reading them (badda-bing) there it is in black and white. The one thing that could get old Bea on the Trump train, the dog bone of all dog bones tossed my way……………NO FEDERAL INCOME TAX for couples under 50K in income. I can easily live and maintain my properties on 40 to 50K per year (seriously) so count me in, hell yeah! No fukkin federal income tax……………somebody pinch me.

Comedy quote of the week.
“Eric Peters stops short of identifying Billy Kristol as a Jew.”
Now that you mention it, he also somehow restrained himself from mentioning that Mittens is a Mormon.
starfcker,
personally i have the utmost respect for RP but he is an idealist and should be treated as such. but he isn’t a god or superhero.
Here’s how I see him, he’s a man basically out of time (not in terms of a clock ticking down but a person whose place in history is misplaced in terms of maximum effectiveness). He’s who one should want as an advisor and overall moral compass but he isn’t the one to listen to when you’re backed into a corner by an attacker with the only realistic option being die or shoot that motherfucker in the face.
maybe if RP would have been elected instead of Blowbama he could have steered us away from teh iceberg but that wasn’t meant to be, we are where we are and things are going to get worse before they get better.
better to keep a keen eye on the spectacle, and stay strong so we can come out the other side (and hopefully some if not most of the mouthbreathing freeshitters are subjected to natural selection).
It doesn’t make him a bad person for it but I don’t think RP has this in him:
“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.”
HL Mencken
No federal income tax on incomes under $50k, is no help to me. Why not no federal taxes on employee salaries or small business profits under $2.5 Million? You’d probably hafta shut off your internet connection if you tried to live on $50k, bea.
Ed and Bea Lever, Nothing is impossible for God and He will solve these problems somehow using Trump. It’s like I handed ya’ll a miracle machine above and you guys slapped it to the floor. You’re like two men lost in the dark because you refuse to accept a flashlight from God. We see through a glass darkly now regarding your questions but the answers will come swiftly unless people reject God’s offer again. Vaya con Dios (the Other Way is the Broad Way to Hell and you really don’t want that). If refusing to pay debt is the answer (which I doubt it is), then God will handle it somehow. If paying the debt is the answer and Americans return to God, He will provide the way if He has to show US where there is 19 trillion in gold in the ground somewhere. Vote Trump and have some Faith in God for change; let Harpy win and reap the NWO.

Make America Great Again.
Providing healthcare to illegal immigrants costs us some $11 billion annually. If we were to simply enforce the current immigration laws and restrict the unbridled granting of visas to this country, we could relieve healthcare cost pressures on state and local governments.
Any reform effort must begin with Congress. Since Obamacare became law, conservative Republicans have been offering reforms that can be delivered individually or as part of more comprehensive reform efforts. In the remaining sections of this policy paper, several reforms will be offered that should be considered by Congress so that on the first day of the Trump Administration, we can start the process of restoring faith in government and economic liberty to the people.
Congress must act. Our elected representatives in the House and Senate must:
1: Completely repeal Obamacare. Our elected representatives must eliminate the individual mandate. No person should be required to buy insurance unless he or she wants to.
2: Modify existing law that inhibits the sale of health insurance across state lines. As long as the plan purchased complies with state requirements, any vendor ought to be able to offer insurance in any state. By allowing full competition in this market, insurance costs will go down and consumer satisfaction will go up.
3: Allow individuals to fully deduct health insurance premium payments from their tax returns under the current tax system. Businesses are allowed to take these deductions so why wouldn’t Congress allow individuals the same exemptions? As we allow the free market to provide insurance coverage opportunities to companies and individuals, we must also make sure that no one slips through the cracks simply because they cannot afford insurance. We must review basic options for Medicaid and work with states to ensure that those who want healthcare coverage can have it.
4: Allow individuals to use Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). Contributions into HSAs should be tax-free and should be allowed to accumulate. These accounts would become part of the estate of the individual and could be passed on to heirs without fear of any death penalty. These plans should be particularly attractive to young people who are healthy and can afford high-deductible insurance plans. These funds can be used by any member of a family without penalty. The flexibility and security provided by HSAs will be of great benefit to all who participate.
5: Require price transparency from all healthcare providers, especially doctors and healthcare organizations like clinics and hospitals. Individuals should be able to shop to find the best prices for procedures, exams or any other medical-related procedure.
6: Block-grant Medicaid to the states. Nearly every state already offers benefits beyond what is required in the current Medicaid structure. The state governments know their people best and can manage the administration of Medicaid far better without federal overhead. States will have the incentives to seek out and eliminate fraud, waste and abuse to preserve our precious resources.
7: Remove barriers to entry into free markets for drug providers that offer safe, reliable and cheaper products. Congress will need the courage to step away from the special interests and do what is right for America. Though the pharmaceutical industry is in the private sector, drug companies provide a public service. Allowing consumers access to imported, safe and dependable drugs from overseas will bring more options to consumers.
Jr, I kinda doubt that God has anointed Trump. You can believe what you like. Good luck with it.
Not true Ed, pays to not have big house payments and car payments hanging over your head. You would be shocked at how low my personal expenses are each month. Go Trump!!
card,
like what i read particular #5
5: Require price transparency from all healthcare providers, especially doctors and healthcare organizations like clinics and hospitals. Individuals should be able to shop to find the best prices for procedures, exams or any other medical-related procedure
not knowing the cost until the bill comes is like some fucked up form of financial russian roulette.
Ed, thanks for the reply. November is six months off so watch God’s comments to Mark Taylor come true and when enough do to convince you, don’t hesitate to jump onto God’s Long White Train (and stay clear of Harpy’s NWO Long Black Train).
It must have been a year ago when I said that I like Trump because he isn’t one of THEM. While I still say that he isn’t one of THEM, I’m not quite sure what he IS one of.
But, like Admin… I do like seeing the people who put themselves in charge squirm.
Bea, my house and land is paid off and I have no car payments either. I couldn’t live my current lifestyle on $50k. If you could, salud. My point is why make it $50k or less? Why doesn’t he propose no federal tax on $2.5 million or less? That ain’t filthy rich, y’know. A small business could get going if the federal tax allowed it to.
Jr. I won’t vote for Clinton. That’ll just hafta be enough. I think God will let me slide even if I fail to vote for Trump.
Getting rid of Billy – all the Billys – is as crucial at this moment as throwing sand on a fire before the thing gets out of hand.
There goes the South. Everybody and their cousin is named some variation of Billy, Billy Joe, Billy Ray, Billy Jimbob, and so on. Then there’s William, Willy, Willa, Wilhelmina, …
Sardines have lots of fish oil. I read somewhere that we are approaching peak sardines.
Hilly reminds me of that 70’s classic; deep throat, the movie, not the snitch.
Comparing Mormon influence in the US with the Jewish Lobby is a bit like comparing a hand glider with a Boeing 747, a tactic designed to mislead and one that is disingenuous to say the least.
http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2008/02/james-petras-another-powerful-voice-on-the-neocons/
This echoes the thesis of Mearsheimer and Walt, whose The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy has powerfully critiqued the existence and goals of what they define as “a loose coalition of individuals and organizations who actively work to steer U.S. foreign policy in a pro-Israel direction.” It also echoes much of the thinking in MacDonald’s “Neoconservatism as a Jewish Movement“, where he describes neoconservatism as “a complex interlocking professional and family network centered around Jewish publicists and organizers flexibly deployed to recruit the sympathies of both Jews and non-Jews in harnessing the wealth and power of the United States in the service of Israel.”
