Octafish appreciation thread.
Edited on Mon Jan-29-07 09:35 AM by emperor72
Thank you.

You have done so much research into the Bush Crime Family; it is truly astounding.
All of it true. All of it jaw-dropping.

Your work provides a unique and important snapshot of US foreign policy over the last 50 years.

I can't thank you enough.

7. Read his excellent journal:
http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Octafish

and I suggest never missing his informative posts. More than anyone else on DU, Octafish has educated me to the history that few in control wish for us to know.

THANK YOU OCTAFISH!

71. Yeah, according to some folks here, JFK was responsible for 9/11.
That's why the JFK thread is in the 9/11 forum, right?

12. Octafish has opened a lot of eyes to the past
Before the internet came about. It's important IMHO to give a continouity of history that the way of the 'net naturally works against, it being of new origins. Information prior to 1990-1992 are rare in comparison to more recent events. I appreciate very much those that takes the time to read and piece history together for the public eye.
Kudos, Octafish! :-)

17. Hear, hear. The past reBFEE is not even past - we LIVE it today.
Those who try to relegate the crimes of the BFEE to history only promote the EXTENSION of the crimewave they are STILL in the process of committing upon this nation and the world.

Support anti-corruption, open government Democrats. Bolster their numbers in the Democratic party to fight the Coverup wing of the Dem party.

His/her work is so valuable and well researched.

Thank you Octafish for caring, as you so often say. And for all you are doing to see some justice prevail.

May we all be inspired and compelled by your actions to spread the word of the truth to all those who need to hear it most.

Thank you for helping us "educate" people around us who would have never known how much evil the busches really R.

Even last week, I asked a man I was discussing with if he knew the fact that P. Bush was "Hitler's banker" and... you should have seen his "awe" 8-O.


Keep on exposing their crimes, past and present.

Never Forget.

Thank you for shining the light on the BFEE- your work here is one of the things that makes DU so important.. Nothing made sense before,
just good people dying and bad people running things-I knew something was "off" but didn't know how or why. Now it all makes sense (although the truth can be painful) For all the work and research and
passion--THANK YOU

27. Octafish Knows the BFEE and is appreciated by others that desire the truth
Conspiracy is a crime as is covering up crimes by the abuse of security classifications.

Silence never denotes consent, omerta doesn't work very well anymore.

The US Constitution and our Bill of Rights are not merely quaint pieces of paper.

These are similar times to those that we were warned to never forget by those that lived, died, fought and survived WWII.

The BFEE is reality, reality is perception managed. The truth is the truth and the BFEE's worldwide information control system is leaking all over the place.

So thanks for caring, sharing and reminding US of the fact that history shouldn't be forgotten, revised or ignored. Octafish, my brother-you have a lot of friends that give a damn.

72. I ’m going to bookmark this thread.
Thank you, emperor72. Thanks also to the DUers who responded above.

Wow! All day long I kept checking this thread from work. It was a most heady and humbling experience. More than once, I started to type a reply, but stopped because the head cheeses would have my job for cost-savings were he or she to see I was using company property to criticize the pretzeldunce and his cronies.

As most can guess, there are a lot of things I'd like to say. Most importantly, I’d like to say that you all are the reason I do this thing: Going after the BFEE, naming names, documenting events and dates, and providing a link or two for additional information. Best of all are the responses and information DUers add. That is what makes this such a unique place for research and spreading information.

Regarding the Bush Family Evil Empire, something to remember: In pointing out the mote in another's eye, while ignoring the log in my own, I must say that not all the Bushes are evil or bad or not-good, whatever is the proper word for anti-social behavior, such as war for profit and power. And most of those who are, aren’t 100-percent evil. And not all its members are named Bush or are even family. Baker. Kissinger. Dulles. Harriman. Shackley. Etc. etc. They've all done much good. And much harm.

“BFEE” is just a handle for their Organization. Like Chimpy’s nicknames for one-upping reporters, I use the appellation to wrap the rest of the story around. And what a story! It encompasses hijacking the United States Government, the systematic destruction of the Constitution, making mountains of money off of war and narcotics, using government policy for reverse Robin Hood, deswtroying enemies and critics, and much much more and all the rest of it.

Oh, yes. My main problem with them goes back to November 22, 1963. President John F. Kennedy devoted every day as President to keeping the peace and making life better for ALL Americans.

When he inherited Dulles Brothers & Nixon’s Bay of Pigs adventure, CIA and the Pentagon advised him to send in the Marines. JFK, said, “No. It’s not worth starting nuclear war.” When the Soviets placed and armed nuclear missiles in Cuba, the Cabinet, the Congressional leadership, the Joint Chiefs were near-unanimous in advising the President go all-out and attack. JFK said, “Not yet. Let’s see if this can be resolved peaceably. It’s not worth starting nuclear war.” Same thing in Vietnam. JFK said, “No. I’ll never send draftees to fight over there.”

Consider also: JFK said, “Let’s go to the moon”—what had been considered impossible for most of humanity’s existence—and he got it done. He was starting to tackle similar problems that had been considered “impossible” to solve, things like poverty, hunger, racism, ignorance, disease, bigotry. If we could go to the moon, we could do anything.

Gee. Things have been a heck of a lot different since November 22, 1963. Those who were alive then and old enough to remember will say it. Those too young to remember—or care—will have to take my word for it. The United States is a very different country since then and today.

The people who killed President John F. Kennedy—and it was a conspiracy, based on the facts, the way it was covered up, and the way people who question what happened have been treated—thought their bullets could end more than a man’s life. They thought they could end an era and an ideology—that the nation could be led by an independent, liberal idealist with the brains, guts, know-how and can-do attitude needed to accomplish truly great things.

Contrast the minds of two occupants of the Oval Office:

JFK: “There is a connection hard to explain logically, but easy to feel between achievement in public life and progress in the arts. The age of Pericles was also the age of Phidias. The age of Lorenzo de Medici was also the age of Leonardo da Vinci. The age of Elizabeth also the age age of Shakespeare, and the New Frontier for which I campaign in public life, can also be a new frontier for American art.”

GWB: “Where there’s no push-back in a society, criminals are able to have their way.”

It almost says it all. Please remember this:

“Treason doth never prosper: what's the reason? Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason.” — Ovid

So, we live in post-successful treason times. We are balanced at the point of letting it go the evil ones' way, stating that all is well and good in the realm. Or, we can do the patriotic thing and try to do all we can to stop the coup from becoming successful by being good Liberal Democrats who give a damn about the nation and the direction it's going.

And, truth be told about me: It’s a relief letting out what I've found on these crooks and traitors. And I’m so very glad so many people here care. And I’m so very grateful for my DU Friends. You have lifted the burden off of me and filled my heart with hope for the future.

75. You are not alone.
I stand with you.

Here. Now. Until the end.

What they are doing and have done, must end. It must.

Without knowing where they came from and who they are, how is anyone to know where they want to go and what they intend to do?

There is no more important issue.

Thank you. Really.

79. You are so eloquent. It is quite an honor....
to have your acquaintance. I join you in your fight by spreading this body of knowledge to others who would not have access to it. Thanks, Octafish:

88. Here's another quote comparison to start the day.
"This is an administration that will not talk about how we gather intelligence, how we know what we're going to do, nor what our plans are."
G.W.Bush to press at Camp David September 15, 2001.


"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly.

But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through the galleys, heard in the very hall of government itself.

For the traitor appears not a traitor...He speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and wears their face and their garment, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the heart of all men.

He rots the soul of a nation...he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city...he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

A murderer is less to be feared."
Cicero 42B.C.

84. honoring Octafish with Octafish's own words ...
"So, that’s why I give a damn.
That’s why I think we all should care.
And that’s why I won’t let go."

87. Let me sign on. Knowing the true history of the behind the scene players
is key to understanding "how things work." And if we don't know that history, and "how things work," then we will continue to be mere pawns in the game.

95. Wow
This is what I thought, but never saw it all together. But now I'm really depressed. It seems too extensive to correct. Just trying to keep going on. Many people just don't want to know.
Thank you for your hard sleuthing! You should be an investigative something. Truly amazing.

96. I try to never miss his articles. The best on DU.
The Bush crime family is analogous to the "Decline and Eventual Fall of the American Republic". It is happening now and Octafish understands the history and events.

97. Astounding works for me.
Straightforward and clear, he beats down the facade of civility and nobility the thugs try to hide behind. He is rare in his bravery to see the truth and then communicate it so well.
