"The Puppet Master"? Who's that?

There can't be any way that she actually believes her stuff... does she?

She's not even reading her own screed before she recycles it:

Quote:
He wants the US Military under his control, which today it is not, as it has dual directives from Gore and Bush, confusion in what the public is told, and thus confusion in the ranks. For this goal, he would want to weaken the Bush administration, so that the US Military looks to their commanders and to Gore, and death and assassination and mass resignations in the Bush camp would create this. This would creates a US shattered into many local fiefdoms, the federal increasingly isolated and distrusted, with the US Military continuing to consider Gore their legitimate Commander in Chief
(my italics)

Or, since she claimed Al Gore was a 'starchild' in 2000, is she still looking to him as a benificent saviour of some sort...

When your stock in trade is predictions of doom, you're going to need something negative to focus on no matter what happens, even if Bozo the Clown had won as a write-in.

Still, one would think that the proprietress of a Doomsday site would have spent the time to write something at least semi-timely and topical for each possible outcome- in advance- and then put up the appropriate selection.

This is mighty sloppy work, even by the standards of the genre.

It does help a bit in sorting out the "cynical huckster or genuinely delusional" question WRT Zetatalk.

:wink:

I can state one thing for sure. The US military does not look to Gore as its Commander in Chief. Bush is very well respected across the military.

Working at the USAFA, I can concur with that.

Planet X's passage was supposed to rend the planet into pea gravel, and its occupants into a slightly viscous red paste. In view of this, why would some extraplanetary panjandrum have any heartburn whatsoever over who wins some whistlestop planet's political election?

Melancoly Zetas? Are these the Zetas with heads shaped like melons and faces like collies? Inquiring minds want to know!

Wow, they're really angry now. Talk of dictatorships and concentration/internment camps in the US (ŕ la Alex Jones, James McCanney, etc.).

Train derailments due to twisted tracks are almost epidemic today, small planes crashing likewise almost epidemic due to guidance system failure, and sinkholes under roads opening up suddenly, blocking the traffic flow. This will only get worse, and where interment or work camps have been planned in the past, they require rail lines that work, else internment or slavery occurs close to home and fails because of this. An army that cannot march or descent from the skies is ignored, and the exponential increase in disasters affecting travel will slowly create this scenario. Thus local rule will be the only concern, certainly not federal rule, and most likely not even state or provincial rule. Martial Law requires the long reach of the law, but all the links in this chain will be broken.
Oh bother. I tried explaining that one to her on the last Lou Gentile show. Obviously, facts do not have an affinity for her. Sort of like a well-waxed car - the rain (facts) just bead up and roll off.
