There is a remarkable convergence occuring across America.   Click on the JPEG above to reach the conference web site.  $10 at the door for Friday concert, $40 for the two days if paid in advance.  Robert Steele will introduce his new book, INTELLIGENCE for EARTH: Clarity, Diversity, Integrity, & Sustainability.  Both Truth & Reconciliation, and Transparency as the highest form of public integrity, are constant themes in the book.

Here are the three “convergences we are detecting:

1.  Two-Party Tyranny and Treason by Both Parties is now understood by the public.  The joining together of Ralph Nader and Ron Paul to promote GRAND ILLUSION: The Myth of Voter Choice in a Two-Party Tyranny is a signal event.  Most do not realize that Cynthia McKinney now with the Greens, and Jackie Salit, leader of the Independents, are also in the mix.  A MAJORITY of eligible voters are now NEITHER Democratic nor Republican.

2.  Obama the Major-Domo–All Hat No Cattle. Despite our earnest desire to see President Obama break free (he can start by ejecting Rohm Emanual and the other partisan hacks, creating a transpartisan Cabinet with a professional Chief of Staff), he remains a puppet of a larger exterprise in which Wall Street and particularly Goldman Sachs, call the shots, and the Two-Party Tyranny pretends to “tussle” when in fact the public now realizes what Grover Norquist has been saying all along: “Bi-Partisan is when the two parties get together to screw the American taxpayer.”  There is no substantive difference, only a theatrical difference, between the village idiot and the major domo.

3. Double-Speak Rules. Quite remarkably, it is the conservatives, bolth in the USA and the UK, who are realizing that the left is better at mass propaganda than the right (which excels at big lies from the top down–the 935 led by Dick Cheney, for example).  The Obama Administration has changed virtually NOTHING from the Bush Administration, and its bold assertions about transparency, sharing, you name it, they have a platitude for it, but no substance at all.  The public is now getting that, as well.
