> Tuesday, April 26, 2011Allen West: Has the Militarist Right Found its New Warlord?William N. Grigg
> (Photo composite by William Wallace Grigg.)Hello,Tea Partiers. Look at your president. Now back to me. Now back at your president. Now –backtome.Sadly, your president isn't me…. Look down. Back up -- where are you? You're in a torchlight parade led by the man who could be your president! What's in your hand? –back at me. I have it – it's that Constitution that you say you love. Look again – your Constitution has been replaced by amilitary junta! Anything is possible when your man smells likewhite phosphorous.I'm on a white horse."I want to start a draft Allen West movement!" exclaimed Glen Beckduring his April 21st radio program. The radio personality has been cooing and burbling about West for months. He's convinced that the retired Army Lt. Colonel -- who wascashiered in disgraceforabusing a prisonerin a fashion that merited prosecution underArticle 93 of the UCMJ-- is the "man of honor" our troubled country needs.
> Of course, Beck isn't the only one infatuated with West: the freshman congressman from Florida is emerging as something of anOld Spice Guyfor the punitive populist Right.
> "The next president will be either the end or the beginning of our country," Beck intoned, taking note of the potentially apocalyptic consequences of the metastasizing debt and our continued descent into an economic abyss. West has displayed no measurable interest in reducing the size and expense of the Leviathan State. In fact, the contrary is true: Before being elected to represent a Florida congressional district, West was an employee of the wealth-devouring, debt-propelled imperial military. His career as a hireling killer is what Beck describes as his most alluring trait.
> "He has a strong military background," Beck gushed. "The guy was led through war, and he's not afraid to pull the trigger."
> With Washington's legions engaged in three open wars and at least five covert conflicts, it's clear that the incumbent warlord is not hindered by a disinclination to "pull the trigger." In fact, under the reign of the Nobel Peace Laureate, Washington's military entanglements have expanded considerably and deepened dramatically, particularly through the use of death-dispensing drone aircraft.
> In terms of bellicosity overseas, a President Allen West would most likely take up seamlessly from his predecessor. The substantive difference between the two would become apparent in domestic affairs: West's model of an ideal society isthe proto-fascist totalitarian state that ruled ancient Sparta.
> In a recent address to a meeting of the Evangelical group "Women Impacting the Nation," West extolled the supposed virtues of the Spartan system, in which children (at least those who made the initial cut as newborns and weren't selected as genetic culls to be hurled from a cliff) were stolen from their parents and raised as the property of the State. "Spartan women at the age of nine gave up their male sons," West recounted to the gathering. "And their male sons went into a training that was called the Agoge and they stayed in that training for the next eleven to twelve years. And when they were finally qualified, when they were finally ready to join the ranks for the Spartan army, it was not their father who gave them their cloak and shield. It was their mother who gave them their shield" -- while uttering the famous admonition to return either carrying the shield in triumph, or as a lifeless corpse being carried upon it.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLTScYwQvSs&feature=player_embeddedThe ironies are thick enough here to blot out the sun, but it's sufficient to focus on three of them. First, the Evangelical women in the audience can be heard swooning with approval as West hymns the purported merits of a thoroughly pagan society that embodied the antithesis of every Christian virtue. Second, West -- who insists that we must either subjugate or annihilate Muslims because they "have no respect for human life" -- apparently believes that America should re-model itself after a garrison state built on a foundation of institutionalized child sacrifice on behalf of the State.
> Even more remarkably, the same Allen West who recently sent a thrill down the leg of many Right-collectivist warbots by denouncing the integration of homosexuals into the imperial military heaped extravagant praise on a military indoctrination system built on what Dr. Paul Cartledge of Cambridge University calls "ritualized pederasty." Enforced homosexuality was part of the process whereby Spartan boys became "qualified" (as West so daintily put it) for service in the city-state's army. In his bookThe Spartans: The World of the Warrior-Heroes of Ancient Greece, from Utopia to Crisis and Collapse, Dr. Cartledge observes that after a Spartan boy's seventh birthday "he was removed from the home environment, for good, to embark on the compulsory and communal educational system know as the Agoge or Raising/Upbrining. Between the ages of seven and eighteen the boys and youths were organized in `packs' and `herds' and placed under the supervision of young adult Spartans. They were encouraged to break the exclusive ties with their own natal families and to consider all Spartans of their father's age to bein loco parentis."
> At the age of twelve, the Spartan male "was expected to receive a young adult warrior as his lover -- the technical Spartan term for the active senior partner was `inspirer,' while the junior partner was known as the `hearer,'" relates Dr. Cartledge. When the Spartan boy reached age eighteen he was evaluated for membership in the Crypteia, a police force assigned "to control the Helots" -- a population of civilian slaves who lived under a form of martial law and could be killed, with impunity, by the Spartan police.
> If Barack Obama -- or even some tertiary bureaucratic appointee in his administration --were to invoke totalitarian Sparta as a model for an American social renaissance, Glenn Beck most likely would suffer a seizure at his chalkboard, and the entire warbot Right would go into convulsions. Allen West's candid endorsement of that vile totalitarian system, however, is seen as "courageous" and "principled" by that same social cohort.
> "When was the last time you heard a politician speak like this?" squealed an enraptured conservative commentator regarding West's paean to Sparta's child-snatching militarist overlords.
> Well, let's see:
> There was that curious little fellow -- a bit eccentric, but adecorated combat veteran nonetheless -- whoabout eighty years ago explained: "When an opponent says, `I will not come over to your side,' I calmly say, `Your child belongs to us already.... You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing but this new community."
> Fleshing out the Dear Leader's vision, his Interior Minister, Wilhelm Frick, insisted that the "primary obligation" of parents, schools, and other institutions was "to raise youth for service to theVolkand state...."
> Another version of that same sentiment was expressed at aSoviet Communist PartyEducation Workers' Conference in 1918: "We must remove the children from the crude influence of their families. We must take them over and, to speak frankly, nationalize them. From the first days of their lives they will be under the healthy influence of Communist children's nurseries and schools. There they will grow up to be real Communists."A few years ago, the militarist Rightworked itself into a spittle-flinging frenzyovera video depicting what was described as Obama's "paramilitary youth corps." The black teenagers in that video -- whose choreographed presentation did have the flavor of a ritual worshipping the Dear Leader of a third world nation -- were enrolled in a Kansas City program for troubled youngsters. This disagreeable episode was an entirely isolated incident.
> Allen West, on the other hand, has candidly endorsed the idea that virtuous American mothers should "[give] up their male sons" to be raised by the State, for the State; that they should teach their sons that there is no vocation holier than killing on behalf of the State; and that there is no act nobler than sacrificing one's life in the State's service.
> Many of the same people who saw the odd little performance in Kansas City as evidence of a plot to create a monolithic, nation-wide Paramilitary Youth Corps of fearsome size and iron discipline apparently think this arrangement would be just fine, as long as Allen West were the one in charge.
> Perhaps he's being coy, but Colonel West insists that he's not interested in a presidential run in 2012. If he's sincere in that refusal, he might find himself gravitating toward a different venture promoted by Beck -- whatone of his publicists describesas a coterie of "former CEOs, CIA agents, and military personnel who share his vision to restore the republic."
> On the basis of prior performance, it's pretty clear that Beck's "vision" doesn't include a repudiation of the Warfare State. The thumbnail sketch of his proposed brain trust suggests that he would be communing with people who have been instrumental in building that vertically integrated enterprise of plunder, bloodshed, and misery, and have profited from it.
> I find myself wondering ifBeckand his clique will gather in somesheltered Rocky Mountain redoubtto prepare for the final economic and social collapse -- and then emerge in the aftermath to offer the kind of leadership only seasoned militarists can provide. If this is the case, I'd suggest naming their sanctuaryGaltieriGulch, in memory ofa CIA-supported figurewhose juntafield-tested many of the techniques-- military tribunals,kidnappings, torture,summary execution-- that are nowroutinelyemployed by Washington.
> Allen West would make a suitable figurehead for a post-collapse American military junta, and I suspect that among his admirers can be found many people who quietly long for the advent of an American Galtieri or Pinochet. I suppose it would be progress, of a sort, to see a black man considered for the role of the Man on the White Horse. http://freedominourtime.blogspot.com/2011/04/allen-west-has-militarist-right-found.html

That said the dollar is the base on which the city/regional bus rates
(yes I said BUS RATES) are set here in Costa Rica. Most people here
take public transportation... It (public transportation costs) is a
MAJOR factor in the world OUTSIDE the USA.
The dollar just lost almost 11% of its value here .... IN ONE HUGE
SWOOP. Thats 25% so far in the last 12 months. God bless Obama and the
sense of stability his Administration lends to others (that was indeed
a heartfelt SARCASTIC thanks).... things just got a lot cheaper here.
The price of gas (your only purely international market consumer good)
has NOT risen at all..... your MONEY is just worth less.

There was some thought that this was all just a set up for a Gov
Patrick veto.
I reckon - Patrick defends House health bill
Puts an end to that.
Mass unions are now saying they will run opposition candidates against
everyone who voted for this. REPUBLICAN candidates!!!
Yes folks, the Earth just flipped on its axis, and dems around the
country ain't saying SHIT!!!!!

In his Friday column, Krugman says that Paul is intimidating the Fed, which means that all of this worry about nonexistent inflation is going to result in higher rates of unemployment.
> I cover Krugman s latest rant in myKrugman-in-Wonderland blog post today. To be honest, I think this is only the beginning. Krugman is going to start blaming the Austrians for everything, and he is going to be claiming that we are motivated by racial hatred. Yep, pointing out inflation is racist. Only in the elite world of the NYTimesand academe.

> I make that point because every time I read something from Paul Krugman or someone claiming the Federal Reserve System is being too tight with money and that there really hardly any inflation at all, I think of Kevin Bacon's "Animal House" character. With the price of food, fuel, and consumer goods skyrocketing, the notion that the massive Ben Bernanke "experiment" of showering the world with dollars has had almost no effect on oil and food prices really is a joke.
> But, the joke is on us, if Krugman is to be believed. Fuel prices? Food prices? Oh, they'revolatile, so we pay no attention to them. In reading Krugman's column today on "The Intimidated Fed," I must admit that his explanation of higher oil and gasoline prices smacks of Jake Blue's excuses when faced with his jilted fiance (played by Carrie Fisher) who is pointing a machine gun at him:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFvujknrBuE&feature=player_embeddedActually, according to Krugman, it isRon Paul'sfault:What s going on here? My interpretation is that Mr. Bernanke is allowing himself to be bullied by the inflationistas: the people who keep seeing runaway inflation just around the corner and are undeterred by the fact that they keep on being wrong.Lately the inflationistas have seized on rising oil prices as evidence in their favor, even though -- as Mr. Bernanke himself pointed out -- these prices have nothing to do with Fed policy. The way oil prices are coloring the discussion led the economist Tim Duy to suggest, sarcastically, that basic Fed policy is now to do nothing about unemployment because some people in the Middle East are seeking democracy. (emphasis added)But I d put it differently. I d say that the Fed s policy is to do nothing about unemployment because Ron Paul is now the chairman of the House subcommittee on monetary policy. (emphasis added)So much for the Fed s independence. And so much for the future of America s increasingly desperate jobless.Let's see. Oil sold on international markets is traded in U.S. dollars, and the Fed is deliberately trying to weaken the dollar through monetary expansion, and there is no relationship between the two policies and what is happening to oil prices?
> Belushi! Thou shouldst be living at this hour! Krugman hath need of thee!
> Actually, claiming that Ron Paul is really responsible for people wondering out loud of there just might be a connection between the rise of commodity prices and the Fed's massive monetary expansion honors Rep. Paul too much. (Not that Krugman is honoring him; Krugman has come to condemn Paul, not to praise him.)
> The idea that Ron Paul is "intimidating" anyone really is a pathetic joke. During sessions of the House Subcommittee on Monetary Policy, the Democrats act as if they are playing their own version of "Animal House," complete with staged walkouts. (And, no, Rep. Paul does not play the Dean Wormer role and yell at the departing Democrats, "You're finished here at Faber!")
> Now, if Krugman has any guts at all, he could be calling for the ultimate marriage of "monetary and fiscal" policies: Have the Fed purchase short-term T-bills directly from the U.S. Department of the Treasury. (The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 outlaws such actions, but all it takes to change the law or get around its provisions is a stroke of the pen, right? Obama already has been making "signing statements" in which he says he doesn't have to follow Congressional directives, so why not end this prohibition with a simple executive order?)
> You see, should Krugman believe that they way to eliminate high rates of unemployment is through massive new government spending, why not go whole hog? Let the Fed just finance ALL government borrowing this way. I'm sure that "America's increasingly desperate jobless" would appreciate being hired as street sweepers to sweep up all of the dollar bills lying in the gutter!
