(55,745 posts)142. No. I've used alert probably six or seven times in 55,000 posts or whatever it is.
Most of the time, it's been due to racists.
My alert of your post represented one of two or three times I've alerted in regards to my own post.
Of course, it's to protect my reputation from smear artists, like you Major Nikon.
Here's what I wrote regarding Mr. Larouche:
Fuck BUSH with LaRouche.
Check this out: Lyndon LaRouche, of all the fucking Democrats, has got Bush PEGGED!
This article appears in the Aug. 10, 2001 issue of Executive Intelligence Review.
Bush's Energy Pirates
Are In Global Power Grab
by John Hoefle
In the latter half of June, I journeyed to Mexico City and Guadalajara as part of a U.S.-Mexico bi-national effort by the LaRouche movement to open up a southern flank against the spread of electricity deregulation, which the financial oligarchy is attempting to impose on that nation. My mission was to explain to the citizens of Mexico the perfidious nature of what is being done worldwide under the guise of privatization and deregulation, and to document for them the predatory nature of the energy pirates.
The essence of the message to Mexico was this: The oligarchs want your money, your natural gas, and your oil, and they will lie, cheat, and steal to get them. If you believe they will be fair to you, just look at what they did to California. Their global financial casino is collapsing, and they intend to maintain their power after its crash, through control over the essentials of life, such as food, energy, telecommunications, and other key infrastructure and commodity elements. Privatization and deregulation are looting mechanisms intended to bolster the oligarchs' bankrupt financial bubble, and to give them control of a post-crash world.
In the terms in which it has been pushedlowering prices by increasing the supply and giving consumers the right to choose their supplierelectricity deregulation has been an abject failure. The case of California is exemplary: People were promised lower prices and more electricity, but what they got was vastly increased prices and a dramatic drop in supply, causing blackouts when demand was at only two-thirds of previous peak usage. Unable to hide the damage they did in California, the deregulation proponents have attempted to portray what happened there as something California did wrong, not something wrong with deregulation.
Deregulation works when properly implemented, they insist, pointing at Pennsylvania as the proof. However, deregulation is also failing in Pennsylvania, so much so that the state took the extraordinary step of involuntarily transferring hundreds of thousands of utility customers to Enron's New Power Company, in a vain attempt to make it appear that its "choice" program was working. Even with that transfer, the number of customers of energy pirates in the state is plummeting, just as it is in Massachusetts.
The record shows that the pirates simply cannot compete on price with regulated utilities when it comes to providing electricity, and in fact require significantly higher prices in order to make money. That is why, as a part of deregulation, the regulated utilities are being broken apart; stability is being dismantled so that chaos and volatility can reign, and prices soar. The electricity markets are being remade in the image of the financial markets.
CONTINUED LOGIC (AND I DON'T LIKE THE FUCKER OR THE WEIRDO)...

I wrote that to show what a crook Bush is -- even if it comes from a bonehead, it's the truth about what a crook Bush is.
Feel free to post all you want. I don't care and I might learn something. So far, all you've done is deflect attention from the BFEE by smearing me.
Most importantly: You still haven't shown where I'm wrong about Mark Lane and the assassination of President Kennedy, and the roles of the Bush Crime Family, BFEE and all the rest.
