Apologies for reading one digest every two weeks, just too busy to

keep up. Thanks Sam, agree, and have the same difficulty - issue

with Bush. I've taken to praying for him whenever I can manage.

There is nothing on our stage - all the world's a stage - that we are

not witnessing with our minds because there is some unhealed manifestation

of our own issuance. Ergo, with prayer, either he heals or disappears

from the screen or stage as it were. ly, I don't care which, to be

honest, I wish I were so spiritual that I truly cared if King were

healed,

but alas and alak, my own little quirks still need some work, and so,

I care more about the millions who could get leukemia from our

nuclear, or chemical.

On the upside, Pluto's aspects to Cheney's chart are causing

the Haliburton payment of a million a year to cause quite the uproar

here in the Nation's capital ... Republicans are becoming Dems or

something daily here.

As FDR said in his second Inaugural Address, Jan 20, 1937:

" Old truths have been relearned; untruths have been unlearned.

We have always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals;

we know now that it is bad economics. Out of the collapse of prosperity

whose builders boasted their practicality has come the conviction that

in the long run economic morality pays. "

Out with the lobbyists and the Dems and Republicans who have sold

this country down the river.

Arianna Huffington has two books well worth reading: Pigs at the Trough

and How to Overthrow the Government.

I never understood how the German people could allow Hitler to rise

to power - now I understand. And, if we do not take a stand to work

to regain our freedoms, our liberties and our Bill of Rights, we are

culpable, as having apathetically abdicated our responsibilities as

free citizens.
