the use of military troops for domestic law<br />

enforcement.) Contrary to previous<br />

expectations, the Bush Regime expects<br />

that Congress will not overturn Posse<br />

Comitatus anytime soon.<br />

However the <strong>Of</strong>fice of Homeland<br />

Security is submitting a series of briefs,<br />

instructing the president how to get<br />

around the Posse Comitatus Act, by using<br />

every possible nuance and loophole they<br />

can think of.<br />

Tom Ridge actually said that any<br />

Senate Democrat who opposed the<br />

overturning of Posse Comitatus was<br />

“disloyal” and presented a potential<br />

security threat to the nation. Then Ridge<br />

started pounding his fist, and said we will<br />

give our military increased law<br />

enforcement powers in this country.<br />

Remember the anthrax scare in<br />

Washington?<br />

The government has admitted that all of<br />

its anthrax testing kits were faulty. All of<br />

the <strong>Of</strong>fice of Homeland Security anthrax<br />

testing kits were twenty years old or more,<br />

and they didn’t bother to buy new ones.<br />

The kits gave faulty false-positive<br />

results and the results were completely<br />

flawed. Because of this, the federal<br />

government shut down many buildings<br />

which did not need to be shut down, and<br />

forced thousands of federal employees to<br />

take antibiotics that they didn’t need to<br />

take.<br />

But they’re going to correct the<br />

problem, they said. They’re going to<br />

spend a fresh BILLION dollars with some<br />

company in Illinois.<br />

But this is typical with this “War On<br />

Terrorism”. They make a big deal out of<br />

something, then six months later, or even<br />

six weeks later, we find out that it didn’t<br />

work and nobody knew what was going<br />

on.<br />

Then Bush went to a presentation at the<br />

Argonne National Laboratory to see new<br />

“high-tech weapons” in the “War On<br />

Terrorism”. They showed a picture of the<br />

new beefed-up SUV vehicle with the<br />

satellite dish and aerials. They also<br />

showed a picture of the new domestic<br />

surveillance hover-drone. [Editor’s note:<br />

See Al’s astonishing column “Flying<br />

Fascism On Your Doorstep” back in the<br />

April 2002 issue of this publication for<br />

details about this “mini-UFO” for<br />

harassing the public.]<br />

Some guy was explaining to him how it<br />

all worked, while Bush was running his<br />

fingers all over it. It was like a kid with a<br />

new toy. When he was told about the new<br />

domestic hover-drone and its capabilities,<br />

that it could listen through walls, take<br />

pictures of people through walls, and<br />

track disloyal citizens through streets,<br />

Bush says: “Oooh, I like this stuff !”<br />

SEPTEMBER 2002<br />

Congressional committees are currently<br />

investigating the nation’s largest banks—<br />

which, of course, are Republican<br />

controlled—and the loans that they gave<br />

out to Enron, WorldCom, and other<br />

Republican-controlled corporations,<br />

which they knew were committing fraud.<br />

The banks are now starting to admit<br />

that they knew their financial conditions<br />

were deleterious at best. The banks are<br />

already admitting that the way they lent<br />

money included conspiring to create<br />

fictitious assets with the company by<br />

false trading profits which didn’t exist.<br />

An interesting connection yet to be<br />

uncovered is that the Bush White House<br />

was behind it. My contention is that the<br />

Bush White House nudged them—and it<br />

obviously wouldn’t take much<br />

nudging—to encourage Republicancontrolled<br />

banks to lend ever more<br />

billions to corporations that they knew<br />

were failing.<br />

And why would they have so much<br />

influence and power? BECAUSE IT’S<br />

ALL THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE.<br />

We have the Bush Administration in<br />

government. We have banks whose<br />

boards of directors read like a Who’s Who<br />

of the Republican Party. We have<br />

corporations committing fraud whose<br />

senior management and board of directors<br />

read like another Who’s Who of the<br />

Republican Party.<br />

What we’ll find, I think, is that the Bush<br />

Administration, out of desperation,<br />

suggested to the banks that they continue<br />

to loan money to corporations they knew<br />

were failing, in an effort to buy time. It<br />

was an effort to help these failing<br />

corporations keep their doors open longer.<br />

The Administration simply wanted to<br />

buy time, but not for these corporations<br />

to turn themselves around. The real<br />

reason was to allow time for these<br />

Republican Scamscateers to distance<br />

themselves from these corporations.<br />

Remember how this all started to<br />

unfold: the accounting frauds,<br />

Republican Scamscateer connections to<br />

these corporations, the massive document<br />

shredding at Arthur Andersen and the<br />

corporations themselves, massive<br />

document shredding at selected security<br />

firms, and shredding of documents related<br />

to Republican-controlled offshore<br />

corporations and holding groups.<br />

What the Bush Administration was<br />

doing was buying Republican<br />

Scamscateers enough time so that they, in<br />

concert with said fraudulent corporations,<br />

could distance themselves from those<br />

corporations as a matter of record.<br />

They could destroy the paper trail that<br />

linked said Republican Scamscateers to<br />

said Republican Scam Corporations—<br />

such as WorldCom, Enron, etc. This time<br />

was necessary in order to destroy the<br />

paper trail.<br />

Through the Senate Subcommittee on<br />

investigations, we’re hearing that this was<br />

very effectively done. It’s very hard to<br />

prove anything now. Why do you think<br />

the case against Kenny Lay, the former<br />

Enron chief, hasn’t gone to trial yet?<br />

You’d think that it would have already.<br />

And why hasn’t Bernie Ebbers, the former<br />

WorldCom head, or any of his assets, been<br />

seized yet?<br />

The reason is that the Department of<br />

Justice is having a hard time<br />

establishing a paper trail of these frauds<br />

because the links of the Republican<br />

Scamscateers to the corporations have<br />

been destroyed.<br />

Also, what the accountants knew about<br />

Republican links to said corporations<br />

have been destroyed. The corporations<br />

themselves have destroyed documents<br />

about what they knew regarding<br />

Republican Scamscateerism within their<br />

own corporations. Also, the Scamscateers<br />

have been able to have documents<br />

destroyed at brokerage firms where they<br />

did business. They have been able to<br />

have documents destroyed from offshore<br />

holding accounts where they hid their illgotten<br />

gains.<br />

All of this was just an effort to buy time<br />

for Republic Scamscateers to distance<br />

themselves and the Bush Administration<br />

involvement and/or knowledge of these<br />

corporations.<br />

If the Democrats play this thing out<br />

(why the banks made the loans when they<br />

knew it wasn’t sound practice), it’ll be<br />

another thing that enrages the American<br />

people.<br />

After all, who gets hurt in the end if the<br />

banks have to write off what may prove to<br />

be $500 BILLION in bad corporate loans<br />

so far, and which could ultimately expand<br />

to a TRILLION dollars in another six<br />

months? Do you think it really makes<br />

any difference to the banks themselves?<br />

It’s not their money.<br />

That’s why I say that the next<br />

bombshell (it’s a two-in-one bombshell) is<br />

not only the Bush White House’s<br />

potential involvement in the banks<br />

making fraudulent unsound loans, but the<br />

economic impact to the nation when the<br />

banks have to write off as much as a<br />

TRILLION dollars in bad corporate<br />

debt—at the same time they are writing<br />

off record amounts of defaulted consumer<br />

debt.<br />

What is the impact six months from<br />

now with a dramatically weakened U.S.<br />

banking system and with confidence<br />

completely lost in the marketplaces?<br />
