No, Kevin, you should NOT run for Congress
Kevin Barrett email:
Yes, I'm asking YOU: Should I run for Congress?
Pro: We need truth-tellers like tomorrow's radio guest Sander Hicks, NY Senate candidate to run for national office.
Hicks is a fake truth shuckster... witness his avid pimping of "that guy who saw a box at another Muslim guy's house and was later murdered"! And Delmart Vreeland!
My wife and family are on board and enthusiastic this time.
Sigh. I'm happy to hear your family situation has mellowed out, but you have to admit it was VERY volatile during the last campaign -- volatile as in an arrest for domestic violence. What do you think the added stress of a campaign is going to do to your family?
I could coordinate my campaign with Eric Sayward, who is running in District 3 as an independent; we could do a series of "debates" around the district bashing the New World Order bankster dictatorship and calling for a peaceful uprising.
The "New World Order" is a catchphrase that immediately turns me off.
Con: "Standing for Congress" requires a lot of standing, and I was recently diagnosed with end-stage osteoarthritis of both hips, presumably from Lyme disease. I can't be out there collecting the number of signatures I'll need (roughly 1500) so I'd have to pay signature gatherers.
Yeah, that sounds like NYC CAN all over again in terms of draining 9/11 truth movement wallets so someone can tilt at windmills.
Also, maybe it would be better to just let Eric be the one anti-NWO candidate this time.
Would you be running as a "9/11 truth candidate" or an "anti-NWO candidate"? Cause again, the NWO thing is ewwww.
What do you think? Should I run?
No.
If so, which issues should I emphasize?
Based on the inexcusable commentary in your recent blog post (in which you allowed commenters to call for violence against people who identify as Jewish and the use of nuclear weapons) I can tell you what I'm afraid you WOULD emphasize, and that is a clumsy/careless/and/or actually hateful inability to discern among political, religious, and ethnic identities and ideologies.
Please list the issues you'd like to see me run on in order of their importance. Here is a list of issues from my 2008 campaign. (Note that this time my position on national health care is aligned with the Libertarians: I'm against Obamacare.)
Oh FFS. "Obamacare." I'm against forcing people to do business with big insurance companies but I don't use the Teabaggers' newspeak terminology.
Check out media highlights from my 2008 campaign here and here.
You can leave your feedback as a comment on [his original blog post], or email me at kbarrett[AT)merr(DOT]com
If you want to pledge to contribute [insert amount of money here] in the event I do decide to run, that would be "louder than words" as the Loose Change guys put it.
Thanks for your feedback!

Kevin, wouldn't you be happier sitting or lying down
(I'm not sure what would be better for your hips) writing snappy, cogent pieces like this? This is what you do well.

Dear Editor: Dave Zweifel asks in a recent column why the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, which have decimated our economy, killed thousands of our young people, murdered millions of innocent Muslims, shredded our Constitution, and turned us into the worst war criminal nation on earth, are “under the radar.”
The answer: Psychological warfare experts have made Congress and the American people their guinea pigs in a learned helplessness experiment.
First they blew up the Twin Towers in broad daylight, shocking us into a state of hypnotic susceptibility that imprinted the ludicrous official story at such a deep level, through post-hypnotic conditioning, that only a minority would be able to see what would normally be palpably obvious. (Deprogram yourself at ae911truth.org.)
Then, in a follow-up false-flag attack also designed to implicate Muslims, they sent U.S. government anthrax to Tom Daschle and Patrick Leahy, greasing the skids for the Patriot Act and heading off any real 9/11 investigation.
Next, they murdered our leading anti-war statesman, Paul Wellstone, which served as “a message to all of us,” according to Sen. Barbara Boxer.
Then they stole the 2004 elections through blatant electoral fraud in Ohio and elsewhere.
When the American people voted to end the wars in 2006 and again in 2008, they just snickered and ignored us.
Now they are insulting our intelligence with such obviously false-flag events as the underwear bomber escapade and the Times Square fiasco. (For the skinny on the underwear bomber, google “Kurt Haskell.”)
They have made it clear to us that we are powerless in the face of such outrages. And they are rubbing our noses in it.
Bottom line: The 9/11 wars will continue to rage “under the radar” for as long as the psychological warfare campaign that has induced learned helplessness in the American people remains under the radar.

agreed--Kevin, do NOT run
and stop promoting that LIHOP charlatan and all around clown Sander Hicks!

But didn't Aaron Russo point out that it was only the New World Order which got women out of the kitchen because the NWO invented feminism?
Who the fuck are you?
Go take introductory women's studies at a community college.
Unless you're joking, in which case I must remind you that feminazis are notorious for our lack of a sense of humor.
I thought he/she was joking
I thought he/she was joking when I first read it. While Russo was ok in some respects that was one of the more ridiculous things hes said. Hes not the only one to float that dumbass theory so maybe the other annoymouse wasn't joking.....
> I thought he/she was
> I thought he/she was joking when I first read it.
Well, of course. Then again, I'd assumed that the response was joking with the comment that "feminazis are notorious for our lack of a sense of humor." But since Rush Limbaugh has shouted this on the airwaves to a lot of fans, maybe it wasn't meant as a joke.
Wow! Didn't know that WTCD
Wow! Didn't know that WTCD had so many cheesehead members/readers, meaning those from Wisconsin who actually have a dog in that fight.
I don't think we car about WI
It's just that Kevin Barrett has a way of drawing negative attention to the cause of 9/11 truth, and anything that raises his profile is to be avoided...
