Mike Ruppert weighs in on Rothschild McCain endorsement
Wednesday, September 17, 2008, 7 P.M. PDT - Let me paraphrase something I once saw George H.W. Bush say: "Everything I am; everything I have accomplished; and everything I hope to accomplish I owe to David Rockefeller." Today I saw something I never thought possible. I saw a Rothschild endorse a fundamentally Rockefeller candidate -- John McCain. DNC Platform Committee Member Lynn Forester de Rothschild quit her post to endorse McCain as she also ended her longstanding role as a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton. The Clintons also have strong Rockefeller "lineage" so I'm guessing that Hillary understands the move perfectly with a wink and a nod. I'll give you the punch line now, without making you read further.

If Rothschilds and Rockefellers are taking the same side it is because the entire economic paradigm is threatened. There is good reason to believe it. The Dow has lost almost 10% in just two days. The bail outs are lining up at the door before the Fed goes bankrupt; before our government goes bankrupt. Lehman was ten times bigger than Enron. AIG was much bigger than Lehman. Still to come are Washington Mutual, Goldman, J.P. Morgan, the automakers and the airlines, to name a few. Not all are going to be saved.

There is only one run on the bank taking place. This time it's the Federal Reserve and we know who will get screwed. The Fed and our Treasury are being looted at the one moment in time when we most need them to be full.

All of this has everything to do with Peak Oil. For those of you who have followed my work -- and the work of everyone who was FTW -- this is exactly what we said would happen, and were trying to prevent. The fact that we are going to have a fast crash now is the best possible outcome because it has given us a unique and perhaps fleeting moment -- a window -- to change things. There is plenty left to salvage.

She's part of the monied international financiers who seem to be jumping ship, raiding the Fed, and screwing the American economy.

17. She has a royal tittle and owns a 32 acre estate in Ascot
This is like having Prince Charles accuse Obama of being an elitist.

2. Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, not just an average housewife, called Obama an elitist and said

Lynn Forester de Rothschild von Cartier der Wha'?
News Alert! Some fancy lady named Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild has decided that Barack Obama is an "elitist" and therefore she's going to endorse John McCain.

Is this the greatest news factoid of all time?

Answer: YES.

It turns out ol' Lady Lynn Forester der von Rothschild -- who "splits her time time between London and New York" -- was a major fundraiser for Hillary Clinton. (For some reason, I suddenly feel overwhelming sympathy for Sen. Clinton.)

After Obama beat Clinton in the Democratic primary, Lady de Rothschild was probably like, "Boo-hoo, my candidate lost, waah waah, nothing ever goes my way! Jeeves, please lower me into my diamond bathtub -- which is filled with real diamonds -- and shampoo my hair with the triple-distilled tears of orphans. Also, I command you to perform a champagne enema on one of my fine Arabian stallions while I liveblog it on my solid gold typepad account. C'est tres magnificique! (sp?)"

In a display of the trenchant policy analysis that has made her famous, Madame Lady Lynn Forest Whittaker de Rothschild von Pooter explained her McCain endorsement by saying of Obama:

"Frankly, I don't like him."

8. Is Lynn a man or a woman?
It's written like it is a she, but her spouse is Evelyn? I have no problem with same sex marriages, but are they legal in New York?

9. I saw that, too.

She's a woman for sure- her husband's name (strangely) is Evelyn.

"The American entrepreneur—and friend of the Clintons and the Blairs—talks about India, telecom, Conrad Black, and her marriage to Sir Evelyn Rothschild."

3. And THAT's a whole lot about what's been wrong with the Democratic Party for too many years
That key positions in the leadership of the DNC are held by the snooty and aristocratic uber-wealthy like Lady Rothschild.

Let's get back to being a party of the people with a campaign funded by 2.5 million giving small donations and STOP rewarding these "fund raising" creatures with leadership positions. Shame on whoever is friends with this vile worm.

5. Oh man.....

Gotta tell you, that's the most depress and alarming piece I think I've ever read, and I've read plenty of them (as we all have) over the past few years.

Mike Rupert... god bless you and yours

A few more snips from the article, written after 2 - 3 years of self-imposed "retirement" from taking public stands:
"So I am standing up again and that's what I ask you to do as well. Now is the time to start talking again about Peak Oil.

...
Start now to organize meetings and seminars. As you "market" them tell people that this is the explanation for everything that is happening around them. Show the record. Show our predictions. It is certain to make sense and resonate -- if for no other reason than because nothing else anybody is saying is.

Now is the time when we can break the back of infinite growth and stumble our way to a steady-state economy that we can use to help prepare for Peak Oil. We can do this before the moment in time comes when (as I wrote in "GlobalCorp") the last CFO of the last corporation, after the last merger, says to himself, ‘Hooray we did it!" -- as he turns out the last light on all of us.

Today a Rothschild sided with a Rockefeller... They are scared. And John McCain will loot the Fed faster that Barack Obama will. The old paradigm is trying to cash out with our money.

Neither candidate will do a damn thing for us. We must do it for ourselves."

6. Totally
It's really depressing and I'm really worried for all of us. And I'll add my prayers for Mike Ruppert to yours.

It's also a call to action, though. If MR can find some hope and peace in all of this after all he's been through, so can we. I'm going to send my copy of Crossing the Rubicon to my brother, who I usually turn to for financial advice.

Things are going to get really bad, but let's not let despair keep us from action. Spread the word, pray, do what you can!

Puts things into a certain clarity, doesn't it?

"Today a Rothschild sided with a Rockefeller... They are scared. And John McCain will loot the Fed faster that Barack Obama will. The old paradigm is trying to cash out with our money."

14. I don't get it, either.
Although I can't understand why anyone would want 4 more years of the same.

It appears the REAL elites are lining up behind John McCain because they think he'll let them get away with looting our treasury- and they're probably right. I used to respect John McCain. Now I see him for what he truly is- a "good cop" Republican with the appearance of a "maverick," but who, in reality, lines right up with whatever the monied interests want. Think Iraq War.

18. Bingo.
I used to work for a company that controlled the assets of an extremely private, extremely wealthy businessman (I can't even tell people who it was I worked for). This was back in 1999-2000.

Even back then, I witnessed signs of preparations for when the you-know-what hits the fan. I thought the guy was super paranoid at the time, but looking back, he most likely knew about Peak Oil and/or all the other stuff that's going on right now and was just being prudent- protecting his assets and family.

15. Good news that Mike is back
I used to read him all the time, then after the office got broken into, he left for S.A., then relocated and basically dropped out of sight. Evidently, he managed to tick off some seriously not so nice people. He is one smart dude.

19. I'm glad he's back, too.
Did you read the story of what's been going on since his computers go trashed and what he went through?

"The first thing that had to happen on my return was that I had to recover. There were serious medical and (yes) psychological issues. I was worn out, had been betrayed and waged war upon. I had PTSD. In Caracas I had been "tagged" with an evil substance called "burundanga". My glandular system was collapsing and I had lost 25 pounds (the wrong way). I had constant vertigo. Doctors in Venezuela who could have cared less about medical insurance added that I might also have kidney stones. Thank God, I didn't.

After our offices were burglarized in June of 2006 (in the middle of our Tillman series), the people I had left in place did not serve FTW or me well. Many of my personal possessions, including precious and rare books, mementos from 12 countries, wrist watches, my scrapbook of freelance articles, and other most precious items were stolen by people who were working for me. The bulk of my library, my photographs, and my clothes were put in storage. Why people stole my LAPD and UCLA diplomas (or threw them out) I don't know. Why someone stole a photograph my mother took of FDR at Fort Belvoir in D.C. I understand, but cannot yet forgive.

Everybody loses things. Some lose everything and come back stronger than ever - although forever changed. I had given up totally. I went to Venezuela to die. I could not fight the government's relentless attempts to silence me anymore.

By roughly April of 2007 my health had returned to a point where I could function. I will not write words I don't have to honor, love and express my gratitude to the amazing Jenna Orkin for saving my life and being the truest of friends."
