Dr. Rebecca Carley: Medicare, Medicaid or MediFraud? Get healthy and off the Big Pharma Grid

With the Host of the Spiritual Politician
Melinda Pillsbury-Foster

Friday, September 28, 2007, 4 pm PST

This Week's Show
Guest: Dr. Rebecca Carley



You feel terrible. You are sure you are dying. You don't have health insurance but what else can you do? You go to the hospital, that is the place you have been told will help you. At one time that might even have been true.


There, you see a sweet little lady with forms to fill out who expresses her concern and starts asking questions. But those questions have nothing to do with how you feel. With a smile she asks if you own your home? Where is the home located? How long have you lived there? How much money do you have in your bank accounts? Where are those accounts located? The list goes on, you are barely tracking because of the waves of pain.

Do you have CDs? Other investments? Do you maintain a brokerage Account?


Welcome to the last phase of your usefulness to the CorporaState.

You will find that the diagnosis and treatment will eat up your entire life savings; this will be explained as necessary so you can 'spend down your own money,' so they can guide you to the safety of Medicaid.


Then, when your own money is gone you notice that you are no longer being treated; now you are warehoused, ignored. This is the final phase. Money and home gone you have no place to go. The system appoints a 'guardian.' That guardian might double as the one who then performs the funeral service, if you are alloted that. Now you are only a drain on their resources. No longer even really human you are waste to be disposed of efficiently.


Rest assured, Big Pharma, and the rest of the CorporaState, are nothing if not efficient.


You need to know that the disease from which you suffer was probably cooked up to put this process into fast forward. Increasing the number of diseases requiring treatment burnishes the bottom line of the entire medical establishment; those who designed this system had in mind the fact that an aging baby boom would be inconvenient and costly – so they found a final solution that optimized its extraction of resources, meaning your resources.


You need to know that there is an exit from this nightmare that returns you to glowing health, even when you have diseases that defy what they tell you is possible.


Across the country a few whistle blowers like Dr. Rebecca Carley are working to save lives endangered not by natural disease but by BigFood that poisons you but profits them, diseases designed intentionally to put you into that long slow, expensive spiral of death laid out above, extracting from you the last drop of life and the last nickel you have earned.


Like any group of people, physicians, even those with the best intentions in the world, balk at the idea they are involved in something that makes everything about their lives a lie that profits the CorporaState – and them. Most physicians develop blinders, refusing to see. Since each of us only sees what is before us most of them manage to live with the slow boiling alive of their consciences along with the slow death of their patients.


They know what happens to whistle blowers and that they fear.


They go after the whistle blowers. They went after Dr. Rebecca Carley.


Dr. Rebecca (Roczen) Carley received her Bachelor’s degree in Diagnostic Ultrasound, attended medical school (and received the Samuel L. Kountz award for clinical excellence in surgery at graduation), and trained to be a general surgeon at State University of New York at Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn. Dr. Carley also worked as an attending Emergency Room physician at Kings County Medical Center in Brooklyn (which is the primary training affiliate for Downstate students), and is the largest hospital (and busiest trauma center) in the United States.

Dr. Carley left the practice of General Surgery and “allopathic” medicine after realizing that no one was actually being healed of their diseases, and she started researching “alternative” medicine while taking time off to start a family.

After Dr. Carley’s only child was brain damaged as a result of inoculations he received, Dr. Carley learned how to reverse the damage with homeopathy and other natural supplements, and subsequently realized that inoculations of disease are causing the corruption in the immune system which leads to all autoimmune diseases and cancer. Dr. Carley has developed the Hippocrates Protocol which has successfully reversed all autoimmune diseases (including autism) and cancer in over 2,000 clients (including pets) over the past 9 years. She has written the definitive paper explaining the mechanism whereby inoculations with disease are causing VIDS (Vaccine Induced Diseases), which has been featured in multiple publications all over the world and is available under the title “Inoculations: the True Weapons of Mass Destruction” on her website at www.drcarley.com. She has offered a $10,000 reward for any vaccine promoter to come on her internet radio show and refute the documents she has authored. No one has stepped forward to do so. Dr. Carley has been qualified in court as an expert witness in VIDS, Legal Abuse Syndrome, Vaccinology, and child abuse.

Dr. Carley no longer “practices medicine”, but instead teaches clients nationally and internationally how to reverse their diseases using the Hippocrates protocol she developed. She also goes into the hospital as a patient advocate for clients who are not satisfied with the care their loved ones are receiving.

You can protect yourself, those you love, and your assets. Find out how this Friday on The Spiritual Politician at 4pm Pacific time at BBSRadio.com. All you have to lose is everything.



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.

Connie Shannon - Living with Fear: What Bush is doing to each of us.

With the Host of the Spiritual Politician
Melinda Pillsbury-Foster

Friday, September 21, 2007, 4 pm PST

This Week's Show
Guest: Connie Shannon


As Americans, every day more of us are forced to acknowledge that we are being controlled by the intentional and focused use of fear, threat and violence. The mounting incidents of ugly violation, typified by the Meyer Incident in Florida and the Town Councilman, David Snyder, who was battered and beaten by a cop in Roseland, Indiana speak volumes about those in power – and about us as well.



Those who arranged for the militarization of those charged to serve and protect did this with clear intention.


We can no longer doubt that we are confronting the same kind of battle with evil that Germans faced in the late 30s. The same methods, fear, threat, violence, were used then; the same techniques have been used here for longer than we realize. The story is more complex, longer, and more frightening than you even realized.


What they do publicly now they have been doing privately for a long time. We must understand how and why these threats have taken us so far towards fascism; we, as individuals, must take stock, confronting those who abuse power so that we can take back America.


As individuals this forces us to examine the the innermost fiber of our beings. It also forces us to see those many violations that have remained unrevealed and so unquestioned.


There have been many victims whose traumas were not played out in public, who have lived in fear. The actions so carefully planned by this administration did not begin with the militarization of the police. Those incidents are intended to intimidate, paralyzing us. But before that hadn't they done the same with a surveillance that also struck fear into our lives and minds? Did you think, before you spoke, what you might face if they were listening?


Terror comes in many forms.


And, always, there have been individuals who were silenced in ways that were far more personal, intimate, and so perhaps even more frightening.


All are victims; we need to understand that this administration has no limits. On The Spiritual Politician today we will discuss where the agenda of greed has taken this administration with one of the silent victims.


Connie Shannon is a writer, activist and musician who lives in Los Angeles, moving there from Texas where she was raised in Highland Park, an exclusive enclave near the Dallas Country Club.. Ms Shannon's family were close friends with George W. and Laura Bush and her brother, Jim, served as Campaign Chairman for George W.'s first campaign for governor of Texas.

Ms. Shannon attended Stephens College, graduating in 1986.


Connie became active in politics more or less by default after the 2000 election was given to George Bush by the Supreme Court. She has been very active in issues concerning the illegal occupation of Iraq, also is active in stopping the use of electronic voting machines which are owned and operated by Conservative companies with vested interests in election outcomes, and is dedicated to waking up more women to the importance of participating and becoming aware and active in the political world. “All issues affecting us are in some way political when you get down to it”.


We need to understand human motivations, theirs and our own as we remain silent and frozen, unable to respond to the violence that every day becomes more overt. They have drawn for us a vivid portrait that tells us who they are and about the content of their innermost souls.

Most of the answers in life come to us through really seeing and 'getting' the character and motives of those involved. Ms. Shannon understands George Bush and many of his closest associates. She has things to tell you.

On the Spiritual Politician we will be discussing Bush from the inside by a woman who knew and liked him and Laura. She also knew and liked Karl Rove, who was sympathetic to her as a teenager. Connie's experiences lengthened over time to include many strange and frightening incidents that have followed her to her new life in Los Angeles. Whistle Blowers come in all kinds but how they are treated have many things in common.

Dr. Jennifer MacLeod on Phyllis Schlafly

With the Host of the Spiritual Politician
Melinda Pillsbury-Foster

Friday, September 14, 2007, 4 pm PST

This Week's Show
Guest: Dr. Jennifer MacLeod




Dr. MacLeod will be sharing with us her lifetime experiences as an advocate for the rights of women. The doctor was one of the first women who break through the glass ceiling and occupy a position of responsibility and power in corporate America. Her Ph D. is from Columbia University in New York and she worked her way up into corporate American through sheer grit and determination.

Her life is filled with amazing events and insights she will be sharing with us – long with the truth about what feminism means now and what the loss of ratification of the ERA has done to women. Dr. MacLeod has strong opinions about Phyllis Schlafly, the subject of my ongoing series on mouths hired by the NeoCons.


Phyllis Schlafly - Paid Operative for Fascism.

Phyllis Schlafly was well paid work for her work over the last 40 years. Her most significant accomplishment to be recorded in history will be stopping the ratification of the ERA in 1982.


Those are the facts, but not all the facts.


Her career was founded on, “A Choice, Not an Echo.” The book, well written and researched, itself turned out to be the persuader that focused attention on Schlafly's potential to feed a disinformation campaign that has gone on for decades.

BigOil found Phyllis hanging around the John Birch Society in the mid 60s. Schlafly was ambitious, looking at a cultural reality that denied to women the opportunities available to men in professions. The Glass Ceiling was still intact. Someone, doubtless made her a lucrative offer, perhaps even William F. Buckley, Jr. They needed a mouth to inject disinformation, persuading women they wanted to stay second class citizens.” Phyllis grabbed the job with both hands.

Her other alternatives were bleak. Ads for jobs in the paper were still listed in two categories, “MEN,” and “WOMEN.” Intelligent women who, like Schlafly, had advanced degrees, were routinely offered jobs as typists.

It was understandable; her background was not strong on any familial work in social justice; her family had never contributed to any of the movements that created the wealth of America in social consciousness.

Intelligent, driven, and entirely focused on doing the job for which she had been hired, Phyllis blossomed.

The biography written by Donald T. Critchlow, titled, “Phyllis Schlafly and Grassroots Conservatism,” was reviewed favorably by the Horowitz organ, Front Lines Magazine, October 12, 2005. That interview by Critchlow holds some interesting insights into Schlafly and events along with crediting Schlafly with phenomenal success in subverting the agenda for women's rights.

Critchlow: It is certain that ERA would have been ratified. It defeating ERA, Schlafly tapped into a new constituency that GOP conservative strategists realized could revive the party: Christian evangelicals. This was a constituency waiting to be mobilized. Traditional minded Christians, as well as Jews, felt that they were under attack by the secular left. Since the banning of prayer in public schools in 1962, evangelical Christians had been simmering. Then in the late 1960s came further assaults on tradition and custom through the liberalization of abortion on the state level, feminism, sex education, and the spread of pornography. Schlafly mobilized evangelical Christian women into the STOP ERA campaign, and in doing so, helped revive the conservative movement and the GOP, shifting it to the Right. She showed that social issues was the key to unleash a conservative revolution that began in the midterm elections of 1978 and continued through the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980.”


Critchlow is incorrect on many of his points while correctly crediting Schlafly with stopping the ERA. Other forces had been in play for some time. Schlafly was hired for one part of a larger job.


BigOil had gone after the Conservative Movement using William F. Buckley, Jr., Ronald Reagan, and employing the wiles of Bush Senior and his paid political operative, Karl Rove. They had subsidized the work of Ralph Reed and Pat Robertson in remaking the demographics of the GOP. Hiring Phyllis was a natural continuation of the same strategy. The first goal was extinguishing the real agenda of Conservatism as enunciated by Robert Taft and Barry Goldwater while continuing to shake the boogie man of Communism.


It worked. But looking back we can see that it was always a ruse.


The analysis of United Republicans of California, the group who had gotten Reagan the governorship of California in 1968, showed clearly that Ronald Reagan was never a Conservative. His administration had laid the groundwork for a shift to centralized control that was unprecedented in California history. Changes included state control of education, promotion of regional government, institution of sex eduction in schools, guidelines for redress of racial imbalance in schools, a sharp decrease in personal property rights, Income Tax Withholding, a move towards gun control, and other acts that caused the group to pass a resolution at their 1975 Convention in Santa Maria that ended with “That UROC oppose Ronald Reagan as candidate for President or Vice President, and urge Americans Nationwide to carefully scrutinize his record.”

An educated woman who had known Barry Goldwater and was well informed, Phyllis Schlafly would have had to be well aware of the disconnect between two philosophies that were diametrically opposed. Schlafly consistently ignored the ideas of Conservatism, selling the repackaged ideas of the newly rising wave of Evangelicals from Southern denominations then being urged to become political and active in the Republican Party. This wave of membership was very different than the activists who had supported Goldwater.

The Republican Party shifted not to the Right, the traditional direction of individual rights, small government, and low taxes, but to burgeoning Federalism that used government as the accepted means for coercing personal behavior. Phyllis helped create that shift; she profited and gloried in her success.

When an intelligent, articulate woman undertakes a clear agenda that in no way conforms to her stated goals it is well to take the irrefutable actions as leading straight to the truth of the matter.

Schlafly herself came from a home where her mother, Odile Dodge, the daughter of the moderately successful attorney, worked as a librarian and a school teacher to support her own family and that of her parents. Schlafly herself was forced, due to the family's financial straits, to begin working early to put herself through college.

Why would Schlafly work to deny to other women the opportunities she took for herself?

The obvious is that this strategy made possible a prominence and prosperity that otherwise would have been impossible. Schlafly was motived by a fierce desire for money and social prominence that also propelled her into the Daughter's of the American Revolution.

Opposing the Equal Rights Amendment was a job, nothing more. The arguments she carefully honed each shared that they were posed in heavily charged emotional terms, threatening dire changes in the culture. In each case she made sure that the objective facts were not available to legislators actually making the decision to vote for or against the ERA. That has remained her strategy ever since.

It is true that Phyllis Schlafly was personally responsible for the derailing of the ERA; what was missed was the fact that the ERA was needed to make the torturous process of trying to simulate equality through the intrusion of government at all levels unnecessary.

In vilifying the women she dismissed as 'feminists' Schlafly ignored for her own benefit the generations of women who had endured a reality that refused them the rights that preexist all government, as promised in America's Mission Statement, the Declaration of Independence.

Schlafly understood what she was doing and for whom she worked. We need to redress those actions today and ratify the ERA.

Connie Ruffley of UROC - Outing the NeoCons for Ron Paul

With the Host of the Spiritual Politician
Melinda Pillsbury-Foster

Friday, September 7, 2007, 4 pm PST

This Week's Show
Guest: Connie Ruffley



Connie Ruffley is the present president of United Republicans of California. She remembers Ronald Reagan; he was no conservative. UROC warned us in 1974, it is time to unmask all the NeoCon operatives we trusted and loved.


First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.” - Mohandas K. Gandhi.


The gloves are off, and it is about time.


In the debate this evening in Durham, New Hampshire, Congressman Ron Paul again spoke the truth that all Americans, but especially Republicans, need to hear. No longer gasping at the single-hearted courage that propels Paul to speak truth despite the continued efforts of the NeoCon corporate field to maintain the myths promulgated by the Bush Administration, the corporate CFR candidates, lead by Huckabee, attacked the only real Republican on the stage. The audience applauded loudly. Many of us cheered.


The Ron Paul Campaign is reshaping politics in America by raising the inconvenient facts that underly the whole of American government. We have a Constitution; we need to return to it and to the original framing intended by the Founders.



That means an end to the Federal government as we know it today. Left and right, Americans from all political viewpoints are beginning to see the propaganda campaign to which they have been subjected and to understand just how far from freedom the ugly alliance of government and corporations have taken us.


When the debate ended Fox was left holding polling results that showed Paul the clear winner.


Final Results:

  • Ron Paul 33%

  • Huckabee- 18%

  • Giuliani- 15%

  • McCain- 14%

  • Romney- 12%

  • Hunter- 2%

  • Tancredo- 2%

  • Brownback- 1%


Naturally, the media will ignore the results, claiming that Paul supporters 'spammed' the poll. But they know perfectly well that is not the case. If it were so the present technologies make proving that a simple matter. The IP addresses do not lie. But lies are thick upon the ground, in every direction.


How this happened is a long story. Telling it debunks more Icons than you would imagine. Ronald Reagan, William Buckley, Ralph Reed, Pat Robertson, the list is seemingly endless. To control us they needed to build out lines of argument that would support their larcenous intentions. All of the above, and more, helped with the process; each was well compensated. You need to know because each of those involved is still desperately working to hold in place the shackles that bind Americans to a new century of serfdom.


On the Spiritual Politician this week we will hear from Connie Ruffley, the co-president of United Republicans of California, the group that launched the Goldwater Revolution, getting him the nomination in 1964. UROC tried to warn us in 1974 that Ronald Reagan was not fit to be president; he had never been a conservative. Ronnie and the other well compensated operatives employed by the NeoCons need to be outed so that this time we understand how they operate and see those operatives still in place for what they are. We now understand that William Buckley's job was to go after the authentic voice of dissent coming from Conservatives in the 1960s and hijack the Movement Goldwater started. We heard Jim Capo on that a couple of weeks ago. But we need the whole story especially because so many of them are still alive and twitching. We should also have listened to Smedley Butler.


We learn slow, but we do eventually get it. This time, the Revolution will not be canceled. We owe it to ourselves and to Ron Paul to make sure we understand what happened. Ron Paul has signed on to handle the Federal Problem. We need to handle our communities and rebuild the economy. Thank God for Ron Paul.


Ron Paul is compelling the respect of ordinary Americans, the kind of people who had given up on politics. He is creating a movement more profound, deeper, and more expressive of the real spirit of America than we have ever seen.


By comparison, Goldwater's campaign was nothing. In fact, America has seen nothing like the Paul Campaign since 1775. What was true then, is true today.


The truth is a heady drink.


A Revolution has begun, a continuation of the one we did not finish in 1776.


Through the colonial period Puritans, Quakers, Chesapeakes and Scots-Irish explored the ideas of freedom that resulted in the adoption of the principles of Natural Law as enunciated by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence.


This time the Ron Paul Revolution will finish what a stubborn people, determined to govern themselves, started.


Those ideas explored the idea that God endowed each individual with an immediate and personal relationship with Him. Remote from England the ideas that were born from the most ancient ideas of Christianity found resonance with new ideas then finding light in the works of John Locke and other writers on the ideas of Natural Rights.


The ideas of individual freedom had moved into the realm of politics through a process that had been going on for six generations. Getting things straight can take time. The ideas of liberty and the decentralized ability to take action were defused within the whole population of New England.


The Commander of the British troops, General Gage, understood what he was up against. He wrote copious letters to his own commanders in England explaining that he could not seize the leaders of the Rebellion because in their place others would simply take action. Organizing action in New England had become decentralized, with individuals using their ample initiative. In this way the Sons of Liberty came together as a secret society and the Committees of Correspondence began meeting to build consensus.


America would be characterized by the initiative of its people until the present monarchy arose, asserting through changed practice that sovereignty was again held by government instead of by individuals who hired government to handle some things for them. Again, the initiative of a free people has responded to refute that assertion.


Bush Co. is wrong if they think they will be allowed to simply leave office with their ill-gotten gains. They are deluded if they think they can get away with establishing martial law. Americans have all the grit needed to confront what comes; Impeachment is too easy; what Bush Co. needs is indictments.


The Ron Paul Revolution brings in its wake the proof that the people can do it themselves. The spontaneous order and zeal of the Ron Paul Campaign, especially its unofficial grass roots, is tangible, viral, and it establishes a platform for action that will remain, come what may.


No practiced orator, Ron Paul is the thing that Bush Co. fears most; an honest man on whom they hold no paper; the kind of man who lives his conscience, knows the truth an uses it.


Expect more attacks from the Council on Foreign Relations types, the political wannabes trying out for the lead in the next corporate-government production of virtual reality intended to numb us into quiescence.


What are the chances that Ron could be elected President? Ask Las Vegas. The odds have been dropping. They dropped to 8 to 1 after the Iowa Straw Poll. Since then his visibility has continued to do nothing but grow. We can win.


You don't have to agree with Paul on everything. His promise is simply to leave us alone and make government do the same. That is what he wants for his grandchildren and all Americans, a world where we use persuasion, do the right thing, and come together in fellowship across the seemingly impossible chasms of hate government and corporations have created to divide us.


That is what all decent people want.


Build Community. Get off the Grids. Reach out for Coalition

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.
