Captain May: Blowing the Whistle on the NeoCons

With the Host of the Spiritual Politician
Melinda Pillsbury-Foster

Friday, March 30, 2007, 4 pm PST

This Week's Show
Guest: Captain Eric H. May

Did this administration profit from 9/11? Did they use nuclear weapons during the Battle of Baghdad? Captain May did not start out to be a Whistle Blower, Born in Houston, he was a high-school leader at Smiley High School before he began his Army service under President Carter. All-American with attitude, he served as school president, editor of the school paper, and chairman of the Honors Society.

"The Army was my Harvard and my Yale," he says, "and there’s little I’ve done since my first enlistment that hasn’t come from what I learned there."

Sometimes life calls you to do things you never, in your worst nightmares would have thought necessary. That is the story of Captain May and the Ghost Troop.

What the Show is about and being a Spiritual Politician

Bringing government into alignment with the Lessons of Jesus:

The focus of our show is how to bring government into alignment with truth of our spiritual nature. So America started with the idea we are all, inherently free. We are free to choose, free to live, to breath, and to live our lives as we see fit. Government does not own us; government is just a contractor, providing service.

That framework is in alignment with the spiritual truth that each of us connects to God directly, needing no agency as an intermediary. To be free is to be free in the spirit and so in the flesh that temporarily holds the spirit.

When Thomas Jefferson said we were all possessed of inherent rights, existing before government he was extending a spiritual truth into a civic form. It is that Mission Statement from the Declaration of Independence we need to keep in mind.

Because we are free and reject, as did Christ, the use of deceit, manipulation or violence we need to be conscious about our relationships with others and find ways to grow into the sense of connection and community that makes us One in Him.

This is especially true for Christians but it is true for everyone else as well.

Nearly every major spiritual viewpoint enunciates the idea that we are connected to each other and should be good to each other. Christians just have an even more exacting mission. Christians are to love every one, treating them as they would Jesus.

Jesus was very clear about how we were to treat others. He did not say that it was alright to be abusive, deceitful, and violent if we used government as our tool and agent. There was no exception, He wanted all of our hearts, minds and souls. Christ did not lay out any plan of government, but left it to the conscience of the individual, the same way He connects to each of us.

We are Americans but we are also members of a human family that connects us to something truly wonderful and immense.

So our job here at the Spiritual Politician is to look at Government as a human tool we use every day. We need to consider if government is working in a way that speaks that common understanding about our connections to each other and, if it is not, we need to change it.

Americans have had many successes over the last 231 years since our founding and, learning from both mistakes and successes we can consider that question. So here at the Spiritual Politician we look at the truth behind of rhetoric.

Given what is going on today in Government what we may decide to do it reboot the whole system.

To provide the examples of what has gone right and what has gone very wrong we here at the Spiritual Politician have put together several different kinds of segments you will hear on our show from time to time.

This Week's Show
Guest: Linda Hunnicutt, Granny Warrior

Linda Hunnicutt became the Warrior Granny when confronted by a team of government agents determined to seize her monkey, Buddy. No way, said Linda, a professional animal trainer who had been working with all kinds of exotic animals for over twenty years. Buddy is still living with the people who he looks at as his family. But the experience awakened Linda to the truth about government in America. It is not about freedom. It is about controlling us. A two time voter for George Bush today Linda is calling for impeachment and ending the war. She takes her convictions on the road across America as the Warrior Granny, determined to give the little people the voice big government and big corporations would deny them.
