		<description>Watch The Obama Deception....&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;As it has been said, &quot;You will know them by their deeds...&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I&#039;m sorry folks, but Obama is a hoax. He is a pretty face on the &quot;New World Order&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When has politics ever solved a problem? Politicians create more problems than they solve.  Our salvation is up to us and our communities, not the American Empire.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Jay</description>

		<description>I caught now having to appreciate that we are getting very mixed signals from B.O., so much so that I it&#039;s extremely challenging to articulate just how his being and actions are going to shift the karma of our country and perhaps allow for the quality of lives to improve.  It&#039;s not going umnoticed that he&#039;s making choices to discern just whose quality of life will be preserved in ways that undermine and discredit the legacies that have tried to topple tyrany, the history and visions that he has claimed as is own and articulated and enlivened in the collective psyche.  That&#039;s why I especially love that your astrology seeks to create an awareness of the forces in and around him, so that we may better choose to steer ourselves away from imbedded tyranny.  Thank you, Jessica.&lt;br/&gt;I&#039;m attaching a post below that represents more of the actions that &quot;the people&quot; are taking now to legitimize our claims that we can manifest right livelihood.

Tomorrow, 10,000 young climate change &lt;br/&gt;      protesters arrive. Photograph: Paul J Richards/AFP/Getty Images&lt;br/&gt;      I&#039;ve just arrived in the middle of the embassy district in Washington DC, &lt;br/&gt;      where an entire building crammed full of youth climate organisers is &lt;br/&gt;      finalising plans for Power Shift.&lt;br/&gt;      Last night, they opened the champagne. There are now more than 10,052 &lt;br/&gt;      young people coming from all over America to the largest ever youth &lt;br/&gt;      climate event in history, where they will lobby US political leaders to &lt;br/&gt;      enact bold climate and energy policies that will rebuild our economy and &lt;br/&gt;      halt global warming.&lt;br/&gt;      It will be the largest climate lobby day in the country&#039;s history, and the &lt;br/&gt;      first mass lobby of Obama&#039;s term in office. Coverage is set to be &lt;br/&gt;      widespread with national TV crews and newspaper journalists arriving on &lt;br/&gt;      Friday, including BBC Newsnight.&lt;br/&gt;      House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, environmental leader Van Jones and dancehall &lt;br/&gt;      artist Santigold are headlining and, with over 270 panels and workshops, &lt;br/&gt;      organisers have had to hire the largest venue in the whole city.&lt;br/&gt;      The massive sign-up drive has generated a fierce rivalry between different &lt;br/&gt;      universities to see who can bring the largest number of participants. With &lt;br/&gt;      only 48 hours to go, Middlebury College trails the University of Vermont &lt;br/&gt;      by only four participants with 194 coming. &quot;We are bringing over 10% of &lt;br/&gt;      our whole student body, which is pretty phenomenal,&quot; said Ben Wessel, who &lt;br/&gt;      is leading the recruitment drive at Middlebury.&lt;br/&gt;      Inspirational stories continue to pour in from every corner of the &lt;br/&gt;      country. One sorority in Texas has rescheduled its initiation because the &lt;br/&gt;      dates conflicted with Power Shift, while a group in California has started &lt;br/&gt;      its epic train journey across the States to avoid having to fly. Mostly, &lt;br/&gt;      though, it is the large list of first-time climate activists which is &lt;br/&gt;      really exciting the organisers.&lt;br/&gt;      Many of these young Power Shift organisers have come fresh off the Obama &lt;br/&gt;      campaign. Cory Warfild, who worked for Obama in Michigan, sees a lot of &lt;br/&gt;      similarities. &quot;There&#039;s an energy, a sense of possibility here right now. &lt;br/&gt;      We saw what success looks like last year, and we&#039;re back for more,&quot; he &lt;br/&gt;      said.&lt;br/&gt;      On Monday, all this preparation will start to pay off. Meetings are &lt;br/&gt;      scheduled with over 350 members of the House of Representative and the &lt;br/&gt;      Senate – Capitol Hill won&#039;t be able to avoid seeing what this generation &lt;br/&gt;      needs.&lt;br/&gt;      Around the world, solidarity actions for Power Shift are taking place – &lt;br/&gt;      from Armenia to Ecuador, and the Philippines to Russia. Earlier today a &lt;br/&gt;      team of young people handed in a letter of support at the US Embassy in &lt;br/&gt;      London, to demonstrate the international support to set bold national &lt;br/&gt;      climate policy.&lt;br/&gt;      We know that with the Copenhagen talks just months away, the decisions &lt;br/&gt;      taken by the US government on national climate policy will make or break &lt;br/&gt;      the UN negotiations.&lt;br/&gt;      Let&#039;s hope they listen to what these youth leaders have to say.&lt;br/&gt;      • Casper ter Kuile is the co-director of the UK Youth Climate Coalition.&lt;br/&gt;      http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/ethicallivingblog/2009/feb/26/powe...</description>

		<description>Hey Anonymous (catchy name there), Yes, Obama is Neptunian, which makes him a perfect match for the times (transit to the USA Moon). 350,000 U.S. troops and mercenaries still occupy Iraq; and when B.O. announced last week that another 17,000 troops are on their way to Afghanistan, the report described Pres. Karzai as being not consulted but &quot;informed&quot;! Another flat-out colonial war. Apparently the great majority of his smitten fans are not registering any of this, despite news reports of afghan citizens being being slaughtered daily. As to what forces motivate Obama the politician, the jury is still out, but I think you are right that he is a smooth poker player.</description>

		<description>I guess Neptune hovering close to Obama&#039;s asc. allowed him and the public to believe him to be the savior. He already perhaps feels he is with his natal sun squaring neptune. But bottom line is Obama is a real leo sun and gemini moon - Perform and Act. Hey- isn&#039;t he also a successful Chicago Poker player?</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I guess Neptune hovering close to Obama&#8217;s asc. allowed him and the public to believe him to be the savior. He already perhaps feels he is with his natal sun squaring neptune. But bottom line is Obama is a real leo sun and gemini moon &#8211; Perform and Act. Hey- isn&#8217;t he also a successful Chicago Poker player?</p>

		<description>Some would think Obama unaware or a victim of the system himself. Bush was excuse by a lack of intelligence, but Obama must seek another path of separation. A hands tied victim staged, but in time we will recognize his fully aware hands at work behind the backs of the American people. The systems of power are failing, the rule of the mind of man ending. Like we look back on a past primitive age so too we will reflect on this one, infantile, but soon stepping into humanities capacity. When we realize that our greatest strength is the difference between us, then as a race of individuals, expanded, the mind of humanity will mature. The heart of humanity recover and soul find it&#039;s door.</description>

		<description>I agree, Tony. Some call this body The Permanent Government. Hardly a conspiracy theory, this is what any of us could figure out by observing Washington&#039;s workings, whatever the administration. Though the media loves to talk about political parties, when it comes to how something like the stimulus package ends up, these much-touted congressfolk have nowhere near the clout of the career bureaucrats who run Washington. It&#039;s the permanent cadre that has big money telling them what to include in whatever legislation reaches the voting stage. If it didn&#039;t work this way, how could the lobby system still be in place, despite flying in the face of everything we learn in our schoolbooks about democracy?</description>
