May 07, 2003 journal, air raid sirens through the night, crossing Ohio River at Paducah.  After driving through the path of destruction with constant lightning strikes all out in front of me, I stopped for the night but the tornados were raging, 2 people were killed where I just came through in Southern Illinois from St. Louis.  Surely their Virgin of Guadalupe could help in this terrible time of distress in the heart land if she were Empress of all of the Americas as the Catholic Church acclaims.  These people do not speak for me.  Surely the saint on St. Louis would indicate that the Catholic Church named that town.  Homeward bound facing heavy rain and fog as I motor down I-24 toward Nashville and seeing my gas mileage at empty on 14, I stopped at a Shell station, they fueled the car up for me.  Public Radio is reporting on the secret deal Cheney's company signed with the government to put out the fires and to sell the oil from Iraq before the war started. There were no fires but I would guess that it paid anyway.  These powers that be are draining the treasury and they continue to load the taxpayer with debt for which we pay interest to their foreign Federal Reserve.  I would guess that this nation is about to break up like Russia.  Certain members of Congress are demanding full disclosure of this shady deal.  It is my opinion that this is the primary purpose for war much more than national security.  It now appears that God is bringing judgment on this nation already in the destruction we are suffering in the weather. In Nashville there were many wrecks from the rain and fog with water on the streets.  One S U V went out of control climbing a bank then turning around on it's own and climbing the guardrail where it finally lodged.  I want to paint that picture.  Another sports car was demolished on I-40 in the mountains East of Nashville.  Driving was very hazardous and visibility is poor out here especially from the semi trailer splash fog mist.  Another picture I must paint is of a person I saw during a pit stop in Southwest Kentucky at a Holiday Inn Express of a man less than 40 years of age crippled by diabetes with his legs and his feet swollen, being a pinkish blue color looking huge and frightening, he could not wear shoes. With all my paintings about genetic altering and the 5 white killers in our diet, I can do no more to reach the people with the message before they perish on fried (potatoes) foods. Congress knows the names of all the corporations which are reaping most of the benefits for now of the Iraq war, their oil drills ready in place and ready to drain the U.S. treasure. I must admit that I resorted to a bit of dark chocolate to stay awake and have the strength to be alert passing semi trucks all day long in the dense fog and driving rain obscuring the highway. I understand now that kids are being given chocolate before a test in schools and it is proven to improve their scores.  Again this goes against what I have advocated in my journals but it seems to work for me.  The firm that sued McDonald's for fat is threatening now to sue the schools for serving fat to the kids.  What a shame the government makes no effort to teach kids healthy food.  The government is so compromised until they cannot say what is safe even when they know the truth of what diet is causing sickness or disease. New York police from a report have one police officer for every 220 people in resident while Los Angeles has only one for every 1,100 people.  Of course the poor say that more police would cause more profiling and abuse of the innocent.  I would say that surely New York is a Police State first-class but not in the terms of protecting the innocent but guilty. So Saddam escaped with a billion dollars in cash.  That should make him equal even with corporate America and the war for fuel.  What suckers we all are to believe in this fraud. We made no count of the dead Iraqis because its better not to know.  Afghanistan fighting continues as they're going back to their life of darkness, so will Iraq.  Is God sending us?
