How to Clean and Renovate a Politician

How to Clean and Renovate a Politician

by The Unknown Author



Just as every functioning thing requires maintenance, politicians are no exception. An engine is kept running much long and much better if it is kept clean and well-oiled.

But even when daily maintenance is kept up, an engine, as well as a politician, needs a major overhaul and cleanup of internal workings. This is an examination of the process to be used for the long-term maintenance of politicians to keep them working at their politically damn best.

The cause of this requirement can be seen in the gradual build up of corruption within that makes its way outward and becomes a problem that can be observed by others. At first, only the politician knows, and to keep it well-hidden from his constituents, he begins to put on a cheerful demeanor and an arrogant self-assurance.

When a young person, the striving politician begins by attempting to increase the attention drawn to himself, or herself as the case may be. The growing notice diverts the politician's attention and causes an ignoring of important inner development. The strength of character thus ignored will be needed ultimately to prolong the period before a major overhaul is required. Being young and energetic, the young politician does not realize the price of such ignorance.

Then, as a result of gaining a higher and higher political position, when time passes and the severity of consequences increases, all the attention gained earlier becomes a liability of exposure. The earlier lack of inner refinement and of principled design begins to have a greater and greater effect on actions taken or foregone that must not be revealed.

As politicians have very thick skins, they do not regard the growing danger of their inner filth seeping out from inside and hardening like rust on their outsides. To remove such hardened iniquities requires a major cleaning technique and an overhaul of the parts causing them to appear.

For the politician to stop for cleaning and renovation during a major overhaul, it is imperative that he or she be removed from the spotlight of public attention. As the politician's life has been solely in pursuit of that, the only way to cause such removal from attention is to create an insurmountable blockage.

Certain equipment is needed to do so, and the first thing needing to be used is a law suit. This suit is made of Kevlar, a bullet proof material, which makes the suit impenetrable to attacks as well as to self-destructive acts. It is colored black, so as to be less noticeable to anyone that it is being worn as a defense, rather than an attack. If it were red, it could be easily seen and assumed to be a red flag in front of a charging bull, inviting further attacks by those who saw the growing inner filth before the suit was put on.

The law suit quiets the opposition, as the inner corruption becomes covered in a non-reflective black, indicating to them that the end of the politician is near. The entire purpose of the law suit is to allow the cleaning and renovation of the politician out of the public eye. It will be removed as soon as that is completed so that the politician can go back to work again and continue the work in a more effective way and for another longer period.

To compare the political course to a normal person's way, when young the normal course requires learning about the world in a way that foregoes attention until it is earned. As the inner strength of character develops, recognition is gained, but not in the public domain until it is fully developed.

It is often assumed that the politician, prior to the need for renovation and overhaul has earned all the esteem and recognition in the same way, but that is not true. Thus, when the law suit is finally needed, many do not see the cause and consider it an unfair consequence of the politician’s doing well. This causes a reaction against the law suit; but those non-politicians intent on cleaning up the public domain will not be put off by those whom they see as his ignorant friends.

It must be kept in mind that the purpose of the law suit is to take the politician out of the view of the public, both friend and enemy, so that the renovation can be done without exposing what was cleaned off and what was replaced. The barnacles of waste and corruption coming from within the undeveloped character of the politician cannot be allowed to reveal what has been there all along.

The sources and suppliers of the law suit are part of the overhaul process, not to be funeral bearers as assumed. The suit is sponsored and approved by members of the legal profession who, themselves, have a yearning to be of service to a person with such public recognition. It is delivered often by the attorneys general of the various government executive branches or by the police wanting to do their part. They well know in advance that when the suit is not needed, it will be removed, and their assistance will be well regarded by the renewed politician.

During the period in which the law suit is being worn, the politician stays out of the limelight as though quieted by the threat of a court. In fact, the scraping of the waste and filth from the thick skin of the politician takes a bit of time, and though it does not hurt the thick skinned one, it still does require some time to complete.

If the overhaul must go deeper than the skin, the operation to open the inner workings of the politician must be done with utmost secrecy. If any of the inner causes of the rust and corruption on the outside become known to the public, replacing those causes with new or rebuilt parts won't be as effective.

During such operations, just as with an automotive overhaul, certain parts must be replaced with new or rebuilt ones that are of the design created by the original manufacturers. Thus, the gaskets where the build up of foul fluids had seeped out and onto the skin of the politician, causing visible rust and corrosion, must be replaced. The head must be cleaned and the valves and rings checked and replaced as needed. The drive train must be inspected for those weaknesses that could prevent the further serviceability of the politician. And the exhaust system will usually need to be replaced with a new muffler to quiet the nasty sounds that the politician had been making prior to the operation.

All working parts are looked into and replaced with the same type, but with a newer, improved design as needed. Thus, when the operation is completed, the politician is as good or bad as new, but as the parts are from the same sources, the politician’s operating modes will be as before, yet more effective.

We can see that the law suit is the first step toward allowing this kind of renovation and cleaning to be done out of the public eye. We can see, also, that the politician will not be stopped from being one nor become a different type with different inner workings.

This kind of overhaul to clean and renovate a politician has been used repeatedly with great success. It is being done today for the purpose of sanitizing the politicians that have been caught with their rust and corruption build up having been seen by too many.

There is another aspect of this process that has not been mentioned here, and that is the importance of the media playing their part to keep the law suit effectively pacifying the public. It is used to promote the law suit and consequences thereof as recompense due for the corruption and rusty filth already having been noticed on the politician.

When the law suit finally comes off with a shining new politician before the viewing public, the consequences of his prior foul, rancorous actions are soon forgotten in hopes of a better future for all. Forgiveness is given, though no apologies have been forthcoming from the politician for any past misdeeds.

We can expect this kind of cleaning and renovation to continue as long as we do not realize that it is not for our benefit but for that of the politician and the manufacturers of his original working parts. Politicians probably should have a schedule for maintenance just as everything else that is cleaned and renovated has.

Heavy lifting "Darkness, Cold, and Evil are Non-existences"

Darkness, Cold, and Evil are Non-existences

--------------- Part I --------------
 

Darkness is dispelled by light. Dispelled means the spell that darkness
appears to have is broken completely. A single candle will light a completely
dark space for a certain distance. Put ten candles in it and the space lighted
will be greater.
 

Cold is dispelled by heat. Ten candles will warm a rather large area.
Darkness and cold do not have presences, only absences, as darkness is the
absence of light and cold is the absence of heat.
 

Light and heat have positive presences, and both require energy to exist.
Lighting a fire requires something to burn that provides the source of the
energy for the light and heat of the fire.
 

So-called evil is an absence of good. It is "live" spelled backwards. Life is a
positive presence and must be the opposite of evil for its continued
existence. Just as light and heat require a source, life requires a source for its
continuing nourishment.
 

There are many things that work, however, in just the opposite way.
Cleanliness is the absence of dirt. Innocence is the absence of guilt. Justice is
the absence of unfairness. Indifference is the absence of love or hate.
Strength is the absence of weakness.
 

It cannot be said that heat is the absence of cold or that light is the absence of
darkness, though those conditions do occur.
The stimuli for heat and light have the power to dispel cold and darkness, but
cold and darkness cannot dispel heat and light.
 

No one knows what life energy is. The same chemicals are in the body
supporting life while growing as when life leaves and decay sets in. Decay is
the opposite of life, and death is no more than the absence of life.
 

Evil is death's persistence where there is an absence of good. Where life
persists, evil has no power to destroy it. Only when a live entity becomes an
evil entity can it do so temporarily.
 

Thus, evil is suicide, just as when a fire burns out and only darkness and cold
remain.
 

Believing that evil has any power is simply surrendering to an absence.
Terrorism is no more than the use of fear in an attempt to cause that
surrender. Terrorism is no more than a fraud to gain power over the
uninformed.
 

Lying is surrender to the false idea that evil has a presence; but any lies told
will have to be supported by other lies that will have to supported by more
lies, and so on ad infinitum. Truth has nothing to do with it, and falsehood
has no presence of its own.
 

Truth is that which "IS" regardless of what we think it is or wish it to be. All
perceptions are only impressions of the truth, and all are based upon the
inputs of the senses. Thus, the truths that the senses give us are only an
impression of what is real. Perception of an objective reality cannot be more
than an approximation as a result.
 

To avoid being caught by falsehood, only a subjective reality can suffice.
But that can be based upon falsehood also. To avoid falsehood it is necessary
to recognize that all truth held to be absolute can possibly be only
approximate based upon sensory perceptions, and not absolute.
 


--------------- Part II --------------
 

To estimate the relationship between subjective reality, which may be held
personally to be an explanation of truth, and objective reality, reasoning
which purportedly gives a logical, yet always only an estimated,
understanding of such relationship, sensory observable changes in the speed
of light and in the progression of time as related to temperature provides
such a means.
 

The observable lower limit of temperature is called Absolute Zero
Centigrade. As temperature nears that lowest limit, light has been observed in physical
experiments, from a perspective outside of the experimental device, to travel
much slower than is expected. It has been observed to travel as slowly as 37
miles per hour.
 

Of course from the perspective inside the experiment in which the light is
being fired at a target, it might still travel at the known speed of
approximately 186,000 miles per second. If it were to take 1 second for the
light to travel to a known target, that target would have to be located about
186,000 miles away.
 

From an inside-the-experiment perspective, it would take one second to
reach a target about 186,000 miles away. From a perspective outside of it,
depending upon how close the target is and how close to absolute zero the
temperature is that the light must travel through, it could take outside hours,
days, or even thousands of years to reach the target.
 

When absolute zero is the temperature, light cannot move at all, atoms are
frozen in time as time stops. This indicates that time is a function of
temperature, and, as defined, speed is function of time.
 

At the other end of the temperature spectrum is an unknown highest one. As
temperature gets closer to that upper limit, if there is one, time is accelerated,
and as a result, from an outside perspective, light travels much, much faster
than observable at Earth temperatures.
When the progression of time is accelerated, from an outside perspective the
times we call "before" and "after" come closer and closer together. At the
hypothetical upper limit there is no gap between before and after, only the
everlasting present.
 

That hypothetical place is referred to as infinity or eternity. It is the all
encompassing "now" out of which all time originates. Light does not travel
there, as there is no time to allow motion, it simply pervades eternity. Heat
has its source in that eternity; and life results from that source as well.
That is the scientific explanation for the "Creator" of all things. Everything
has had a creator or it would not exist. There is no denying that truth and
staying sane. Everything depends upon the presence of energy from that
source; and the absence of light, heat, and time has no power whatever.
 

A life spent examining absences is a life wasted.

This what is happening now.

Self-evident

It’s November 22, 2017, and the time has flown since my last writing. The
task, if it could be properly termed one, was described previously as
unplanned but certain. Certainty arises from words that are expressive of
truth that is not of my making, as that would be belief. The certainty to
which I refer is expressed in the words of the Declaration of Independence
where it states, “We hold these truths to be self-evident.” Self-evident, not
requiring the provision of any evidence, indeed, it is not permitting of any
demand for evidence of its truth. How they knew to say those words all those
years ago has to be assumed to have been an inspiration from some universal
source, named right after them “our Creator.” Those words provide the basis
for the entire development, the fundamentals of the new secular order that
they announced to the world.

Today, those words are greatly ignored in favor of the words that follow
them, which are “that all men are created equal.” This phrase has been
grossly mistaken for a statement of legal and worldly equality. They sprang,
instead, from the requirement to announce that from that time on there would
be not acknowledgment of the divine rights of kings, popes, or any other
human, such as had until then claimed for themselves. The king in Britain
was one such person claiming divine rights and placing himself and his
authority above all other mortals as a result. The Declaration dismisses this
claim of his with the words “all men are created equal,” even kings and
princes and popes not excepted. If they were not stated in it, the claimed
rights of the king of Britain would not have been summarily dismissed, yet
they do more than just put his authority out of reach in any former colonies,
which were then declared to be newly established independent, sovereign
states. They put the world on notice, for the first time in human history, that
the rights endowed by “our Creator” are beyond the scope and authority of
human alienation, infringement, or abridgement.

This was the beginning of an entirely new epoch in human history, one that
began supposedly with the caveman and the barbaric ruler ship by the
strongest man in the group. It progressed into tribalism, and then it
developed into kingdoms ruled by family heritance. The authority of the
caveman to rule over his family and clannish group was based entirely on
human acceptance for the sake of survival. It had no greater basis than
strength and the force of temperament of the leader to keep the clan out of
trouble. If he did not do so, he was replaced, and often it was his son who
took over from him by force. This practice resulted in kings being killed by
their sons, and as a result the followers were afraid to object. A small group
of men controlled the thoughts and beliefs of their kingdom’s subjects.

Thus, when ascending to the top of the preposterous assumption of the right
to dictate, the “divine right of kings,” they had made themselves an equal
with “our Creator,” but with no conscience and no consent given to their
assuming that station. Dictators all through history have used fear to control
and suppress dissent among those in their control, and when getting old or
no longer as effective, they go the way of the caveman whose son killed him
for being incompetent, whether he was or not.

This leads back to my former writing in which I outlined the reasons, as
described by David Hume in his A Treatise of Human Nature in Chapter 4,
for a small group of men to control the much larger number of other men. He
said the following words about the cause of this human condition:
“A master is such-a-one as by his situation, arising either from force
or agreement, has a power of directing in certain particulars the
actions of another, whom we call servant. . . . When a person is
possess'd of any power, there is no more required to convert it into
action, but the exertion of the will; and that in every case is considered
as possible, and in many as probable; especially in the case of
authority, where the obedience of the subject is a pleasure and
advantage to the superior.”i

Specifically stated by Hume were the characteristics that allowed the tyranny
of the few to survive, as it has. He wrote the following impression in another
of his writings previously cited in Chapter 4, titled, “On the First Principles
of Government.”

"Nothing appears more surprising to those who consider human
affairs with a philosophical eye than the easiness with which the many
are governed by the few; and the implicit submission with which men
resign their own sentiments and passions to those of their rulers.
When we enquire by what means this wonder is effected, we shall
find, that, as FORCE is always on the side of the governed, the
governors have nothing to support them but opinion. It is, therefore,
on opinion only that government is founded; and this maxim extends
to the most despotic and most military governments, as well as to the
most free and most popular."ii

Returning to the Declaration’s statement that all men are created equal, such
was stated in direct defiance of the impressions that Hume had described as
based solely in public opinion. From the time of that declaration of selfevident
truth, public opinion shifted to an understanding that kings and
popes are men and die just as all mortals do. They are not above, nor the
providers of, any other human’s inalienable rights to life liberty and their
pursuit of happiness.
Thus, though the war that ensued as a result of that Declaration of
Independence has been thought to be correctly termed as the American
Revolution, and though it was not in the strict legal sense a revolution to take
over the government of Great Britain, but rather a war of secession, it was a
revolution against all forms of tyranny by kings, popes, presidents, judges,
legislators, and any other human assuming the right of dictatorship based
solely upon public opinion.

It was a revolution of the highest order, and public opinion has yet to
perceive the impression that it should have gotten from it as a result. That is
the reason for this new perception to be expressed here, that public
impressions, which create public opinions world wide, might become aware
of the new secular order that began in America in 1776. Though it was
applicable at the time to the new nation they were forming, the principles
defied the history of all nations that had any other form of governance.
Those who traveled to the new country, The United States of America as it
was named in the Articles of Confederation, did not understand this
difference sufficiently. They sensed a new form of freedom from serfdom,
kingly and dictatorial impositions, and religious restrictions upon their rights
of conscience. Yet they did not perceive the depth and breadth of the change
that had caused that new sense of freedom. They did not understand that the
new nation was not just one, but many nations joining together under the
principles stated in the original Declaration of Independence. Public opinion
has never been less informed than it is today. As a result, the ideas that they
arrived with to escape their own countries’ tyranny they brought with them
and assumed them to be still applicable in the USA.

It is due time for the curtain to be lifted on the world’s delusions about the
real basis for freedom for everyone everywhere. There is a new secular order
already in place that has been ignored for all those years. Those who want to
retain or gain more control over this free nation have used subversion and
deception to keep the awareness in their control. They have introduced the
idea that a new world order needs to be implemented, when in fact it has
already been announced and implemented to a limited degree. Thieves will
pretend to be friends, and when no one is looking take your most valued
possessions away while telling you they got misplaced somehow. The
freedom of the secular order that is now almost 250 years old defies their
plans to influence public opinion using the very terms that were originally
used, such as new secular order. If they can steal the essence and replace it
with false ideas that public opinion will not necessarily accept if they see the
truth, they will have taken the impression away using the words
nevertheless.

That is what has happened since about 100 years ago when the immigration
from Europe increased due to the prosperity and liberty to pursue your own
happiness having gotten well known. No one can blame them for wanting to
be part of it. But everyone who came with the idea of destroying the greatest
opportunities for all by taking control using false doctrines and deceptive
persuasions are not to be pardoned for such inhumanity. They are the
promoters of their own agendas and their own selfish control using public
opinion, just as the kings, popes, and presidents have done elsewhere
forever.
On the positive side of this apparently extreme difficulty, time will abide.
Progress is made on square wheels, and when the masses pull them up
finally onto one of their corners, the continuation of time’s ways will pull
them over onto the last part of the procession pulling below. That is how
things progress in time, and now the wheels are on their corners and ready to
fall on those at the rear of civilized progress least aware of the danger.
Those who think that the wheels are theirs to control, just as they believe
everything is, are not among the real leaders into the future for man. They
are just in the rear of the crowd using their whips and chains of utter
falsehood to urge the masses’ public opinions on to their own demise, and
they think it is all for the good of their planned takeover and dictatorship of
the world. When the wheels finally fall this time, their tribal consciousness
will be completely dismissed along with the divine right of kings. A clean
sweep will result, and principles will prevail once more.

Brazil's Bolsonaro begins starts firing 'left-wing' public servants

Now, this is a man who puts his actions where his mouth is. He is a former paratrooper and knows how to fight the Communist/socialist/leftist/collectivist subversives that have ruined his country for 30 years. This is what Trumpery should be doing, but isn't. Of course, with his background and being a member of the NYC tribe for so long, it is not surprising. Besides, he has never been in the military and fought for freedom at his own risk.

Which is it, Wall Street?

As a 2019 Happy New Year gift, on December 31, 2018, Wall Street decided to announce their 2019 implementation of a new method to fool the gullible public. They have announced the adoption of the practice of Trumpery, which they have seen worked so well prior to now. They can't beat Trumpery, so they have decided to join in the game. 

An example of this means being used to fool everyone in the world comes on the same day as their announcement, when Trumpery today announced a shift from immediate withdrawal of all US forces from Syria, where they did not belong anyway, to a slow withdrawal. Next, we will be told that they won't all be withdrawn, so what was the first announcement's purpose except to fool everyone everywhere, including "Mad Dog" Mattis, who belongs in the pound anyway.

The Wall Street Journal has taken on the nasty task of letting everyone know what to expect from Wall Street in 2019. It posted two reports, shown below, on December 31, 2018, as you can see below the report summaries.

The world's population of living persons has gone to pot!

Counting Mother and Father Ancestors

Let's just see how many ancestors you must have when you and each one of them has a mother and a father. 


It doesn't matter if a mother died in childbirth as long as her baby survived and grew up to birth another live baby who likewise survived, grew up, and gave birth. It doesn't matter if the father died right after the baby was born under the same conditions. This study doesn't count siblings as ancestors, unless there was some incest involved, and that doesn't affect the results below.

You must have had a mother and father, so that's 2.

Each of them had a mother and father, so that makes 4 more. They now total 6 cumulatively.

Each of your grandparents had to have had a mother and father, and you have 4 of them so that makes 8 more, and so on.

It really works like this: each person, living or dead, has 2 people who were their mother and father.

Each generation back doubles that number, so in the 4 generations before you (not counting you) there had to be a total 2 times 2 times 2 time 2 mothers and fathers in that generation (which equals 16).

Using this simple arithmetic, it is easy to see that you have the blood of many people, direct ancestral mothers and fathers, in your veins, but how many depends upon how far back you want to look.

Let's go back to the year 1900 for an initial look. If the average span of time between generations were only 20 years (which would be rather short), and if you turned 20 as of your birthday in 2020, (assuming for the sake of simplicity that the date today is January 1, 2021, which I know it is not yet), that means you were born in 2000, and you parents were born in 1980, and so on for 4 more generations back in time like this--

Gen#     Relationship to you           Year born       # of Mothers and Fathers
0           You                                         2000        0 (we are not counting you)
1     Parents                                          1980        2
2     Grandparents                                 1960        4
3     Great Grandparents                        1940        8
4     Great Great Grandparents               1920      16
5     Great Great Great Grandparents     1900       32

The cumulative total number of only your mothers and fathers since 1900, 100 years before you were born, is 62 (2+4+8+16+32).

Let's see how many that makes going back 200 years. How many of your ancestral mothers and fathers are in each generation and could contributed to the cumulative total 200 years previously, or since 1820 (assumed 2020-200).

Your generation chart keeps going backwards from 1900 in generations and accumulates more ancestors.


Gen#     Relationship to you                                                 Year born  #in gen    Cumulative

Your 9th generation back had to have 512 mothers and fathers, i.e. 256 mothers and 256 fathers; and that made the total cumulative number of only your direct mother and father ancestors since 1820 be 1,022.

It doesn't stop there. You will see that by the year of their births in 1360 A.D., the required number of your direct mother and father ancestors exceeds the currently claimed estimated population of living persons in the entire world since the beginning of mankind, i.e. 7.7 billion now after 220,000 years of human history! (see the Wikipedia statement near the end)

In the table below, you can see that in 1340 A.D. your family had to have had more mothers and fathers in that single generation than all of living mankind now has since its beginning 220,000 years ago (at least according Wikipedia's estimate shown below).

32       1360  4,294,967,296       8,589,934,590    
33       1340  8,589,934,592     17,179,869,182

That is 8 billion, 589 million, 934 thousand, 592 people, counting just mothers and fathers, in just your 33rd generation back, or you would not be here. And that happened in 1340 A.D.

If we keep counting back from there, by the year 1580 B.C., 3,580 years ago, your 179th generation's count of just mothers and fathers had to have been
    766,247,770,432,944,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

Sorry, I can't say that number for you.    That is the number of mothers and fathers required in that one generation back in 1580 B.C. for you to even exist today. Me, too, so that makes it required that we double that amount to account for both of our ancestors, unless we are related as siblings, which we are not.

For the skeptics who want the average span between generations to be the human maximum of 45 years, which is ridiculous but if it were, the same number of mothers and fathers, 8,589,934,592, would have been required in your 43rd generation back, and that would have been in the year of their birth 40 A.D.

This is simple arithmetic; and any simpleton knows that everyone has to have had a mother and a father to be alive. Those are the only ones who are being counted here. Your siblings don't count as ancestors of yours. Duh!   

Now let's look at the Wikipedia reported world population of people currently alive:

Wikipedia says: "In demographics, the world population is the total number of humans currently living, and [it] was estimated to have reached 7.7 billion people as of November 2018.[1] It took over 200,000 years of human history for the world's population to reach 1 billion;[2] and only 200 years more to reach 7 billion.[3]" [That totals 220,000 years]

[1] "World Population Clock: 7.6 Billion People (2017) - Worldometers". www.worldometers.info. Retrieved 2018-05-13.
[2] "World Population to Hit Milestone With Birth of 7 Billionth Person". PBS NewsHour. Retrieved 11 February 2018.
[3] "World population hits 6 billion". 4 March 2004. Retrieved 11 February 2018.

That is the
currently estimated living population of the world. So each of those living persons has to have had the same number of mother and father ancestors as do we. If none of them are siblings, which is not true as some are, but if they were not, that would mean the number of mother and father ancestors in any generation would have to be multiplied by 7.7 billion.

I won't bother to do that, as the above number calculated for a single person's one generation in 1580 B.C. is already ridiculously large; and that was only 3,580 years ago, which is not even close to 220,000 years ago. (3,580/220,000 = 0.01627272727... which is only 1.627% of that period of time)

OK, so now what is your answer to this obvious truth?

Which man is Bill Blythe III's real father?

Bill Blythe III was the name given to the baby after his mother's traveling salesman husband died in a car accident before he was born. She had married him after getting pregnant with a baby by an undisclosed man who was not her husband (she didn't have one yet). After Bill Blythe Jr. died in the accident, his mother married William Jefferson Clinton, and Bill Blythe III changed his name in an Arkansas court to William Jefferson Clinton Jr.

These pictures show the man who died, Bill Blythe Jr. (first) and WJC, Jr. with the former governor of Arkansas, Winthrop Rockefeller (second below). Now you can decide which one was most likely his real father by blood.
