Vote Obama/Biden!


Democrats Nationally, Libertarians Locally!


Given the incredible road the Republicans have led us down, it is not enough to defeat them. The Republican Party must be replaced.

They have betrayed every principle they ever claimed. Because of the Republicans, we no longer are a free nation. We wage war at a dictator's pleasure with a military that has been trained to torture prisoners, and John McCain wants to bring soldiers directly from those battlefields into our schools as teachers with no training into education, no civilian credentials.

We see a pair of demogogues more ignorant than George W Bush and more hateful than Adolf Hitler himself in the person of Sarah Palin, who was picked by John McCain to promote hatred, ignorance and violence with every speech she makes.

In Obama & Biden we see a steady-headed young man and an experienced leader who understand the gravity of the office they seek. We can trust them not to play lightly with national responsibility and global security.

The Libertarian party is small, and needs to grow. If it grows, it will bring back the common sense of personal freedom that can balance the programs that serve the public good.

Paul Robbins, Rebuffed, Calls For Public Hearing On Voter Access

Going up in smoke.....

Austin is considering setting up a giant wood-stove to generate energy.

Yes, I typed this correctly. No, I am not drunk or high or watching the X-Files instead of Channel 6 City TV....

Repeat: Austin is seriously considering building a giant woodstove.

The Public Hearing on August 13th, which will be aired again on Channel 6 on Saturday at 4pm, has interesting euphemisms to prevent the syllabically-challenged from figuring this out. Since most of Texas does not have the kind of terrain that supports individual woodstoves in densely populated areas, which still does exist to a degree in heavily wooded temperate zones, most Texans are not familiar with the heavy presence of "particulate matter" that normally accompanies wood-smoke, a problem that can overcome even the most nostalgic attachment to the aroma of a wood fire on a winter evening....

You know, Austin is not a wooded glen in the Appalachians. And calling the wood "biomass" is even scarier. "Biomass" is a term that has appeared in the modern scientific and political literature referring to the entire "life mass" of all plant, animal, and human life.

It does not make any sense at all for the capital city of one of the oil & gas-producing centers of North America, if not the world, to be considering the erection of this giant BIOMASS-burning facility, unless one is considering some other fuel besides wood....

Of course, in the strange science-fiction-like dystopian world of traditional Nazis, this makes sense. It is an ingenius way for a resurging Hitlerian party to actually get the citizens of Austin to approve and build a crematorium. But of course there are no Nazis left, they were all defeated in WWII, right? And what kind of storuies did they tell the Polish people when they were just building those camps, anyway?

Sure this is extreme-thinking, beyond the fringe, but just the same, let's explore the possibilities just as if the genocidal tenedency of the Nazi party back in the 1940's somehow managed to infest the American political system like a thick-hulled seed that inserted itself into a crack in dry soil and waited years for the right conditions in order to sprout new growth.

Back in the 1940's the German Nazi Party had its supporters, not only among the Germans of Texas, but also among the Irish, Yankee Wasps, and other race-eugenics-conscious populations. While Hollywood depicted the occasional neo-Nazi group as a bizarrely comic cult int he 1960's and 1970's, the Irish Catholics were waging a terrorist bombing war against the English with most of their financing coming from Boston, Massachusetts and Chicago, Illinois. They were sympathizing with the Palestinians and trading skills with Islamic terrorists.

By the 1980's the Irish quieted down and all was forgiven. The US political party most heavily influenced if not controlled by the Irish Catholics was waging terrorist war against civilians in Massachusetts under the guise of Mafia hits, "random" violence, and openly indoctrinating school-children with blood-curdling images of death and genocide paid for with Federal "art" money. All the while, the Catholic civilian population was silenced by sexual blackmail and torn loyalties in the school-integration fight within its dioceses. During this period and earlier, Massachusetts Catholic bishops dismantled the old free-parochial school system that had supported ethnic diversity, upward mobility and multilingual schools. They replaced that system with a money-driven "ecumenical" parochial model that eradicated all ethnic identities while supporting the establishment of a pseudo-ethnicity called "White" by eliminating one of the most powerful supports of healthy diversity. They initiated the new Catholic/WASP/Interfaith model in which the poor are not encouraged to speak up for themselves and attempt to better their lot in life, but the upper classes instead announce from the pulpits that they now are the "voices" of the "voiceless". Hardly a month in any American Catholic or WASP church now goes by without a well-dressed college student or recent graduate in sociology stepping up to announce the need to deliver services to these pathetic souls who are no longer even allowed to have contact with families within the Catholic church. They are no longer "human". They are voiceless commodities.... BIOMASS.

Alongside this somewhat internal look at the politics of the American Catholic church in the 1980's was the rise of the Clinton faction of the Democratic party as well as the rise of anti-human extremism among the far left/anarchist fringe of youth culture. During this period the Irish Mafia in Boston controlled the FBI office through Whitey Bulger while his brother Wiliam Bulger rose on the ranks of Irish power in the South Boston and Dorchester districts to become head of the Massachusetts Supreme Court. The murder of James Bernardo, a 12-year-old Catholic boy, was a backwoods Berkshire incident with curious threads leading back through the corrupt circles described here. That murder was a terrorist incident and all the families in Berkshire County knew it. During that time FBI agents included one named Townes and one named McLaughlin were switched on the Bernardo task force and evidence tampered with, including one NY State trooper being caught attempting to fake fingerprints. READ THIS and THIS and understand that the victim "Sarah Ann Wood" is a co-victim with James Bernardo. Both were killed by Lewis Lent.

Ah, we have digressed. Back to Austin Texas, today: by way of linguistic politics. "Genocide" became "Ethnic Cleansing" under the Clintons. Bear in mind, Hitlery Clinton led certain American "feminists" to a world conference on women's rights in China during its pre-capitalist, most fully totalitarian, phase. Representatives of other women's groups expressed shock at the American feminists' embrace of Chinese official politics, which include sexual genocide: only "useful" females to be kept alive. It appeared inconsistent on the part of American feminists, but by this time the Clintonites had driven all other women out of the feminist ranks.

So Hitlery Clinton's support of those practices do not appear inconsistent to anyone who knows the history of White Wasp Feminism: the Amercian women's right to vote was won on the argument it would double the "White" vote in the face of immigrants, and few "White" feminists among the suffragettes considered that Black Americans would vote, in any case. "Planned Parenthood" has often been cited as having its roots in eugenics more than in how often women choose to give birth. Alongside that, the left-wing GE Project and the left-wing terrorist fringe of the "Weathermen", the ELF and extreme "Greens" all began to move from clean air & water and sustainable resource management to human species-eradication, a truly delusional and crazy fringe cult belief that is in fact affecting young people to an alarming degree. After you read about ELF, read our post from June 18 concerning the speech at City Council about the Governor's Mansion arson. It was given by a child representing the same group that funded the art-propaganda in Massachusetts and which is now trying to control the arts in Austin.

How can this be happening, this open march to genocide? It can be because the crazy extremists do in fact have the upper hand in Washington DC. There is no one at the helm. The crazy elitists believe that they will survive the planet-wide genocides in some kind of personal bubble, and they are managing to pick and choose the target cities.

Alex Jones and his PrisonPlanet.com have been flogging this immobile if not dead horse with some really impressive documentaries, but we at the Austin Egalitarian do not share his emotionally paralyzing pessimism. Jones does not offer any kind of hope that the crazy ruling class will simply collapse. He plays into their hands by isolating himself and his supporters from the mainstream, reinforcing their delusion of strength. He seems to believe so strongly in the conspiracy that he believes we can all fight "them" somehow, but in fact there is no "them", there is no "conspiracy". There is a tragic comedy of errors on a global scale that has left the ship of state adrift while everyone looks for life-jackets.

Austin is to go the way of Sarajevo, the art-colony Sarajevo of the 1970's. Surely some readers remember those marvelous traveling art festivals that circulated through our college campusses in the early 1970's, all showing cutting-edge animated art by the Sarajevans? Austin is eerily like that city of Sarajevo.

The Clintonites and some other Democrats are at war with Texas, make no mistake about it. They hate Texas, they fear Texas. Austin is a convenient target because Austin probably has one of the largest communities of exiles from New England in Texas. It will be easy for the Democrats to maneuver a martyr-like assault on the one city that does not conform to the official culture of the rest of Texas, because so many Texans in the countryside are completely unaware of the full history of relations between Texas and Massachusetts, and they hate the part of it they see here, the carpetbagging part. And there may be enough actual modern Nazis throughout Texas to help the Clintonites carry it off, turning Austin into another Auschwitz. Over the years Democrats have helped brainwash the American population into thinking Auschwitz was about Germans hating Jews, and Jews have gone along. But the truth is far from it. Auschwitz was all about scientific population control. The "Jews" were nothing more than the current target at the moment of confrontation with the rest of the world. Had there been no confrontation, the Nazis would have moved on to the rest of the population.

"Biomass" as a fuel is not about burning wood, which in itself is crazy enough. The ultimate confrontation may be that Austin is being set up as a crazy target for the ELF extremists who will bring their violence here, and give the Clintonites the excuse to send in the same kind of troops they sent against the Branch Davidians, but on a larger scale. Don't forget: it was a fundraiser for one of the Clintonite feminist "shelters" who made the hoax call setting off the El Dorado raid. They were hoping for another Waco and they did not get it. Instead, they probably ensured that the actual pedophiles in that community will get off on technicalities while we all know that you can find pedophilic and sexual violence easily in ANY group of 400+, just look at normal crime statistics and do the math. The Clintonites itch for violence, but Texas didn't jump when they scratched that time.

We shouldn't be ready to jump this time, either. All the Austin City Council has to do to yank the rug out from under the deluded Clintonite terrorists is reject the BioMass plant. We can return to realistic sustainable energy plans with that $2.3 billion and spend it on wind and solar alongside better building designs, better mass transit, and more judicious use of oil & gas. And leave the Clintonites to their own devices to try some other way to spark their genocidal civil war.

Paul Robbins and Skip Cameron Fought Hard

Austin, Texas: Aug. 28, 2008:After hearing more objections from Austinites and hearing one clarification by Austin Energy that the contract is "take and pay", not "take or pay", the City Council moved to approve. Councilor Cole asked that discussions be set up with American BioRefinery, one of the companies who complained of the aborted bidding process, but she did not mention the other companies. Councillors Shade and Morrison commented on the process having been less than perfect. In other business, City Council moved to make inquiries into campaign and electoral practices.

Requiem for the Arts in Austin

Articles 59 and 30 brought public comment that signalled a complete take-over of all artistic activity in Austin by a new division.

Coincidentally, a group of artists from the Renaissance Faire on "The Drag" at 23rd street showed up to protest having been given notice 2 days ago that their commission is being abolished. This group says it has paid for its space and generated income to the city, taking only 80% of its proceeds and paying its own way. Participants have paid $200 a year for their space. The Council postponed the decision for a week, but their discussion with Commissioner Klineman, who spoke on behalf of the Rennaisance Faire, did not suggest any reversal should be expected.

We also have heard from a source that the Austin Figurative Gallery on Chicon Street is closing down as of Sunday, on very short notice and without explanation. That is an independent artists group that has not taken any City money. Is something suddenly afoot in the arts community?

Update, 6/21/08: Dave Ohlerking said "the only way 'art authorities' can have any control over me is to offer free welfare-type money. I don't go for that. Horse barn days are over ....If we're patient all of this will end up good."
