-Caveat Lector- Those nuts at RumorMills in Aptos, Ca. ??? The folks working with the vigilante Ranchers in Arizona? The guy that has the radio show on a AM station in L.A. that rants about the Mexican invasion?

The essence of the mind control meme is that "Chinese and Cuban soldiers are shooting at US Border Patrol across the Mexican border." This seems like a classic war hysteria meme. Does anyone know more about the origins of this particular mind control scam?

The reports of possible Chinese and Cuban soldiers shooting at Border Patrol agents is finally garnering enough attention that people are beginning to take notice. Several of you emailed me this week with links to Internet message boards related to these issues and particularly our stories about foreign soldiers so close to our sovereign nation. One of the questions that popped up over and over again is that of credibility. One post read, “How do we know if these reports are real? I need more proof.” This post was a common one with either the writer completely believing these reports and our high-level sources or wanting more proof. My question is: what proof would you like? That proof may end up being Chinese soldiers knocking on your door one night and taking your property. Or, it could be a Cuban military squad coming to burn your Bible and any other books that might disagree with the Communist sham. My point here is not to belittle the opinion of our readers who desire more proof and some sort of “second opinion”. But I’m not sure what people would consider a second reliable source. Does it have to be Dan Rather coming on the CBS Evening News and leading with “Good evening, is the Red Army preparing to invade the United States through Mexico?” If you’re waiting for that, I wouldn’t suggest you hold your breath. The problem with covering and reporting on this issue is the mainstream media in America refuses to pay attention and will not cover the story. When they did cover the incident of October 26, when Mexican army members fired on U.S. agents near Otay Mesa, only small blurbs appeared in local San Diego newspapers and on television. Fox News Channel, via host Bill O’Reilly, picked up on it but would not report about sightings of Asian soldiers in the same area. As the election clearly showed, a majority of the media in the United States in more about entertainment and pushing the liberal agenda down our throats. Anyone who was watching during the Bush vs. Gore battle knows just how bad it has gotten. Objectivity is a word non-existent in today’s mass media world. Dan Rather, Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings, Larry King, Wolf Blitzer and the rest of the con artists continue with their slant today. They don’t cover the border issue because they don’t feel it’s important. Never mind the rest of us who value our great nation and our personal freedom. If they had it their way, we’d all be waiting in line for bread and readying our May Day parade. I would love it if every major news organization were on top of this story. It would validate everything we have been reporting so far. But the reality is that will not happen. There may be a brave soul out there that can break through the liberal slant and get past their editors but I seriously doubt it. I am a former print reporter for a major daily newspaper. I have worked in a newsroom and seen first-hand how it operates. There is no longer any journalistic integrity that we all learned about in journalism school. Throughout my childhood, there was nothing I wanted to be more than a journalist. O.K., maybe there was a time when I wanted to be a fighter pilot but most of my life I wanted to be a newsman. I was probably the only 12 years old that actually watched “All the President’s Men” or other movies that revolved around the world of reporters. It was romantic to me. It still is. I left print journalism after being edited, censored and flat-out told not to write “negative” stories about one of the paper’s biggest advertisers. The media is a business, always has been. More than ever, it’s the money that controls the content of our newspapers and newscasts. There’s nothing objective about it. I share these stories and views with you to explain why the Big Three and major newspapers today are not covering one of the biggest stories in the nation. We have the guts to tell you what’s really happening. Personal threats, intimidation and character assassination be damned. There is hope. Some publications like the Washington Times are reporting on the strange movements of Russian and Chinese forces around the globe. They’re giving us some good “read between the lines” news. But we need to let the American people what’s happening and that’s my goal. Report what’s happening and let them decide. This whole situation reminds me of a bad science fiction B-movie called “They Live.” The movie, starring the famous wrestler “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, revolves around a group of people who are trying to expose the presence of aliens on earth. The goal of these invaders is to get us to be complacent and blind. Piper and his cohorts design sunglasses that allow humans to see the aliens for who they are – reptilian type creatures that are projecting a mind-control beam that renders us blind to reality. The movie is truly bad but I love it. Not unlike the stiff characters in the forgettable movie, we’re all being controlled and told what the news is. We need to take off those sunglasses and take a look at what is really going on. To quote my favorite line from the movie, and to sum up what we’re all doing here at the Jungle: “I’m here to kick ass and chew bubble gum; and I’m all out of bubble gum.” This-n-That: Hallelujah! The news is loose: Art Bell returns to radio February 5. This is great news for us fans who appreciated Art’s radio talent before he went off the air and even more after. With a newborn in my home, his voice will guide me yet more late nights of bottle feedings and diaper changes. Welcome back, Art! Russian Nukes: Listen to Bill Clinton and he’ll tell you the Russians are our friends. In fact, with all the aid we’ve sent them, we’d probably be able to build our own military to the level it should be. Now, our “friendly” neighbors across the Bering Straits are moving nuclear missiles into Eastern Europe for the first time since the collapse of the former and soon-to-be resurgent Soviet Union. “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. America, this is Vladimir Putin with your wake-up call.” Dan is Not the Man: Would somebody please get Dan Rather off the air. The former reporter (Yes, former. Now he’s a puppet for the Dems) continues his election night assault on President-elect Bush and other Republican leaders. How can anyone stomach to watch this guy? Obviously the heroin he did in Vietnam is still floating around in those veins.
