The So-Called Prophet from Pittsburgh – Series introduction

Our good friend Joseph L. Flatley has a brand new podcast The So-Called Prophet from Pittsburgh. Below you can listen to the series introduction and learn more about Gabriel of Urantia and his group the Global Community Communications Alliance.

From LennyFlatley.net

The So-Called Prophet from Pittsburgh is Gabriel of Urantia, a self-proclaimed holy man who currently presides over a spiritual community (some call it a cult) in the desert of Southern Arizona. In a fenced-in compound, three generations of spiritual seekers soak in Gabriel’s teachings as they wait for the end of the world.

Join investigative journalist Joseph L. Flatley as he travels around the country, speaking to Gabriel’s ex-followers, cult experts, and people who knew him before he was a so-called prophet. You’ll learn why people join a group like this, why they stay as long as they do, and the challenges they face when they decide to leave. And you’ll hear some groovy music in the process.

The cartels are coming! The cartels are coming!

20130222-205535.jpg

Jan Brewer is hopping mad. What is it this time? Why those dam Mexican drug cartels that are about to march into Arizona. The Governor told Fox News all about her fact finding mission in which she flew in a Black Hawk helicopter and

saw them on the other side, the drug cartels, ready to come across in the middle of the night. It is not secure.

What Brewer thinks these cartels are going to do is beyond me. It is remarkable that a governor that lives so close to Mexico and drug war would be so naive. The cartels don’t want to march into America and conquer it, they want to traffic drugs and make money. Every so often politicians rehash this ridiculous notion that the cartels want to invade their biggest and most reliable customer. The cartels have no incentive to bring the violence from Mexico over into America; not when it would affect their massive profit margins. Jan Brewer is just looking to beat up on Mexicans and score cheap political points. Surprise surprise.
