3 times b4 the Global Public Square (GPS)
has witnessed attempts at overthrows of governments.

Gunpowder Plot Society (GPS) is 1 of these 3.

3 Times have the oldest reigning family in England, the grand Throckmorton lineage,
of GPS own wife have attempted to overthrow the English rule and install puppet queens.
Now there is a 4th.

FZ, 800 year old wife family in hand, represents a minor role in this grand comedy unraveling page by page before our eyes in its as yet infancy. FZ alas is a Pawn with little intelligence as to the role he is playing. Rather unsuccessfully one might add. FZ as Matt has pointed out, is far too transparent.

GPS man of a new is GPS man of old.

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I see no reason
Why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t’was his intent
To blow up the King and Parli’ment.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England’s overthrow;
By God’s providence he was catch’d (or by God’s mercy*)
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring. (Holla*)
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
And what should we do with him? Burn him!

CNN GPS or shall we say,
GPS : Gun Powder Society

He has managed to marry into Englands oldest celebrated lineage reaching back for 3 times trying to overthrow the queen.

FZ 360 is the most appalling Yellow Journalist ever to be TRANSPARENTLY in-placed into Newsweek with GunPowderTreasonous flair. Give it a fucking rest FZ. You are TOO Transparent.

Once upon a time covert societies used to be covert.

The thought that “Most of what happened over the past decade across the world was legal. Bankers did what they were allowed to do under the law” neglects to mention that most of what happened over the past decade used to be illegal.

What I find most disturbing in all of this apologia is no one questions the basic problem: Namely that a world wide economy that contains treaties that seem to negate national interests can be destructive to our welfare.

The question that I have proposed to all my libertarian and Rand believers is simple: Can a multinational corporation be patriotic?

Let me offer an example of our self interest suffering under international contract that no citizen ever voted for: Our national government accounts, astonishing, for 20% of all our spending. If we could direct this to a buy America program we could boost domestic industry and keep dollars in our country. Yet both Democrats and Republicans will not support this effort to put real Americans, in Wilson’s terms red blooded Americans to work on rebuilding our economy. What is wrong with this picture?

Thought experiment: which writer does the world more of an injustice by merely existing, Zakaria or Thomas Friedman?

Also, this makes me think of an old, old Harpers article I recently read: “Who goes Nazi” (http://www.harpers.org/archive/1941/08/0020122). The idea being, at any given cocktail party, you can pick out the people who, if they were alive in 1941, would “go Nazi”. I think Zakaria kind of personifies this… And, really, who doesn’t love an opportunity to bring up Nazis again?

And all I could think is “jesus, does nobody get how totally co-opting this must have been?”

This sweet smart boy has been owned by the establishment and the nobility since he was 24. Why would anyone expect real journalism from him?

Good on you, Matt. Don’t slow down and don’t spare anyone.
