and the beat goes on…

I had a thought that I might shelve Lyndon Larouche and come back a little bit refreshed once the Avi Klein article comes out.  (My plan, incidentally, is to post the cover, linked to the story, with the subject title “The Shit Hits the Fan“.)  But I know better than to expect I could possibly do that.  It really has a momentum all it’s own, and things are tossed at me at a regular clip.  Okay.  It has been a while since I entertained a Larouchian for a long stead on this blog (and in retrospect I think there may have been more to their story than I could have dreamed at that time), but the good news is that since I was not mentioned in the Daily Briefing, their attention is going to be heaped on kheris.  Which thus far works online, and it should stay that way… right?
Well, if you “watch” LaRouche, you’ll see that at his webcasts there are numerous questions sent in from House and Senate offices asking about Cheney, Gore, derivatives, etc. I guess you could say the moderator is just making it all up, but that would be a conspiracy theory.

Yes.  Looking down a Larouche webcast transcript and we will be entertained by questions from all types of unnamed government officials from all over the world.  The good news is that this provides a chuckle for everyone who is not a Larouchian.  I actually do find some charm in his logic.  But Okay.  A story I found and placed up here during my December – January series of posts (the series of posts that threw me right into the thicket of all things Larouchian.)  What I posted:
In 1997, Philip Crane, a Republican Congressman on the House Ways and Means Committee, asked Clinton Treasury Secretary questions alerted to him from the “Executive Alert Service” on being “very concerned that severe budget austerity, as presently enforced Maastricht Criteria in the European Union, and Japan’s new auterity budget, threaten to detonate a systematic financial collapse.”

So, Rubin scratched his head, provided a non-answer, and asked to be sent the magazine.  You can guess what “Executive Alert Service” is.

To complete the story, Rubin good-naturedly alerted Crane to the fact that he had just asked a question based on a Larouche piece of literature, Crane was red-faced with embarrassment, they both laughed, and they moved on from there.

Some of the people who are known to have closely followed LaRouche’s proposals are wackos such as a former U.S. President and a former Secretary of the Treasury, who don’t associate with him publicly, though.

And there is a reason to single out Rubin here, as the Larouchian continues in his arguments:

Clinton and Rubin went in the direction of the “new financial architecture” indicated by LaRouche at a certain point.
And on it goes.  There was this sort of mini-scandal a couple years ago when John Conyers was making waves about Impeaching Bush.  Larouchians claimed credit, and indeed I observed them in the flesh sort of plastering the rear of an anti-war rally arguring with someone that — No, No… Larouche has been having direct talks with Conyers.  The Conyers — Larouche controversy played itself on the politics1.com website.  (Scroll down a bit).

I suppose I should look to flesh out the connections he had with the Reagan administration — where his shadow fantasy government made connections with the actual government, and I note that I saw him use today — which he will use at any opportunity — the photograph of him next to Ronald Reagan, and his now seems to have deteroiated Intelligence connections.  (Tends to be a little shaky at times, witness KKK Bilks Money Out of Larouche to Attend Star Trek Conventions.)  Today he is quite good at compiling every doom and gloom economic forecast, filtered away of every non doom and gloom forecast, and flushing it forward in his feeds.  Interestingly I note a sort of haphazardness creeping in.  The Reagan photograph was connected onto a story concerning Henry Kissinger, and Kissinger was not cast into the light of being on par with Satan.  Because Kissinger’s message worked with the Putin Russia love that Larouche is exhibiting these days.
From Kheris:  The fact that HQ named me along with King is so absurd. I don’t know what sort of visitor stats this blog is collecting, but I do know it’s not being quoted anywhere aside from Skull and Bones.

It’s “Skull / Bones”, originally named “Skull / Bones 2004” with an image of a faux bumper sticker.  Kerry.  Bush.  Harde har har.  (The “Skull and Bones” society and attendant concern over I think Larouche would take credit for popularizing in the 1980 Republican primary on behalf of Reagan over Bush I.  But never mind that.  He apparently backed away from it all sometime around full – fledgingly endorsing Kerry, who had to shake off his new-fangled supporters on a couple of occasions.)
This whole thing has felt almost as cloistered as Larouche, Inc… a small group talking amongst themselves.  But I suggest that Kheris, I, Dennis King, everybody is just about to receive a giant boost in stats.  I do not know how big a story this is in the scheme of things, but I do not it is a story — will be covered by the AP as they say, and we are tangentally a part of it.  I also wonder if being named — “Star Trek Groupie and Robert Beltran Stalker”– isn’t just a little bit too juicy and wacky for a media report to not pass by.  I am bracing myself for something, though I do not quite know what, or if it is even enough to brace myself for.
For instance, I notice that Dennis King has re-arranged his website a little bit.

    It’s clear that the fixation on Kheris does derive from her place of work. People in the ICLC are gripped with fear of federal investigations, tax issues, and the like. Maybe because so many LaRouchies did time on such charges in the 1990s….

    Which is why the whole thing with Kronberg and PMR is such a nightmare for them, at least potentially.

    Sorry to keep commenting–but–
    There’s a fascinating new thread on FactNet–Larouche Continued 1–http://www.factnet.org/discus/messages/4/33270.html?1186784698
    which I commend to everyone.

    Fascinating additional stuff about Kronberg and PMR and Larouche’s various impossible positions thereon. Thanks to the new poster at FactNet, LaRouchetruth!

    The good thing there is that those posts are the top of a page, more easily navigable than otherwise would be the case.

    For what it is worth, I tacked your last threads on PMR with the new postings, and slid it to my sidebar:

    http://www.struat.com/justin/whathappenedwithpmr.htm

    I suppose all it is missing is a compilation of all the various “Internal” memos.

    Additional Edit:  The new thread continues, and we end up with some more intrigue which makes more sense to a former insider than to me, and probably more sense to me (a curious bystander only) than a LYMer, stubborn in his/her admiration for a false hero.  Frankly, I don’t even know how I am supposed to process this one.
