What Pop and Poppy May Have Forgotten to Mention to New Bride, Jenna
By Cathy Garger
Critical info that Jenna could have used far more than any toaster or blender as she makes her new life...
::::::::
Political differences aside, Huffington and I finally agree on something. In Huffington’s “Mr. Jenna Bush Gets a Piece of the Action” written by Chris Kelly and published today, www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-kelly/mr-jenna-bush-gets-a-piec_b_101260.htmlI sense we may indeed be kindred spirits on this issue of grave concern to all life forms in this nation.
First, please allow me to say there simply are no words to describe the horror of reading accounts of sociopaths A-OK with nuking their own nation, their own people, their own families...
Even themselves.
Well, I suppose one could reason that, as the ol’ saying goes, what’s fair is, after all, only fair. I know everybody says what’s good for the goose is good for even the Nuker-In-Chief’s dander. As this logic would go then, the poisoning of America’s health and environment – via Depleted Uranium, nuclear power plant emissions, and other dispersal methods of radioactive poison gas - must, out of necessity, also include first families, too… right?
I don’t know. With my Catholic school upbringing and all, I’m just not so sure about this.
Call me old fashioned perhaps, but those of us with a morsel of compassion left in our hearts admittedly do feel a tiny crumb of concern for our American quasi-royalty, too… even if the nut jobs in power are apparently quite A-Okay with radioactively poisoning not just others - but themselves as well.
And as unpopular as this might make me for all those who believe an eye for an eye is the only way to go at this point in what my Revelations-believing friends truly consider is now the prophetic End Times? I am just going to come out and speak what’s in my heart… so here goes.
I do not want young Jenna to inhale dangerous radionuclides into her lungs any more that I wish that fate upon my own young adult relatives… yes, even despite who Jenna’s pop and poppy may be. There, I’ve said it. I don’t want the twins or their families to die a slow, painful death due to radiation poisoning… any more than I would wish such gruesome horrors upon my own flesh and blood.
Look at it this way, if you will. We could have done more and we could have done it sooner. After all, if we had an emotionally unstable child hell bent on inflicting pain and harm on innocent pets and playmates, wouldn’t we have already done our utmost to try to protect the lad and society - by shielding the troubled youth from rendering harm unto himself and others… a long, long time ago?
By the same token, I wonder why then are we – as Americans of strong moral conscience - not doing the same thing with our psychologically unstable political first family? By all rights, should we not already have joined together and physically removed these sociopaths from power – all of them, in all levels of power – to a safe place where they would be able to do no further harm to themselves or others?
Some of us may be able to assuage our conscience a bit by claiming ignorance of the widespread malevolence. It has only been in the past few years, after all, that I’ve learned that the nuclear power plant near my home, Calvert Cliffs, has been emitting regular radioactive releases for thirty years – Uranium and Tritium particulates - into my air, and dumping the thermal releases right into the once clean, clear waters of my beloved - albeit dying - Chesapeake Bay.
And as strong, dispassionate, and stoic as I may try to remain as I do my research and share my thoughts with anyone who will listen? To find out that my own federal and state civil servants are A-Okay with harming us - and our treasured natural resource, the Chesapeake… the Bay that once teemed with rich, abundant aquatic life - is almost more than this compassionate environmentalist and humanitarian can bear.
Does our royal first family’s young bride not know all of this yet? Is it perhaps possible that she’s unaware of the radiological poisoning of her own environment, supported and enabled by those in her very own family and the multitudes of Daddy’s moneyed, elite and powerful cronies in the DC area, including even some who were guests at her wedding?
Has the psychopathology gene in her family possibly caused her very own conscience, too, to cease functioning... rendering her self-protective survival mechanism defunct, her DNA genetic materials possibly radioactively mutated, damaged, and malfunctioning beyond repair?
I don’t know what the US royal offspring’s deal is. Maybe the whole wicked lot just do not give one whit about the rich shellfish and other life forms once abundant in the Chesapeake Bay. Maybe they don’t give an elephant’s rear end that inhalation of radioactive substances damages and/or destroys human cell functioning?
Perhaps Jenna has never even heard of Epidemiologist and radiation specialist, Sister Doctor Rosalie Bertell, who wrote: “The picture one needs to form is that the human body has trillions of cells, and perhaps a few hundred are affected in the immediate vicinity of wherever these particles happen to be lodged. When a cell is damaged, is may die (which causes no further problem), be repaired, or continue to live and reproduce itself in the damaged state. It is this latter case which causes chronic illness, premature aging effects and can ultimately cause cancer.” www.iicph.com/docs/Annual_Gulf_War_Illness_Conference.htm
Or, could the crux of the problem lie in the simple fact that the recently betrothed simply has not been told all the gritty, dirty details, such as the fact that Mr. Jenna Bush's employer, Constellation Energy, is getting ready to create the largest nuclear power plant complex – certain to emit more dangerous radionuclides than any other nuclear power plant in the entire nation?
Furthermore, adding nuclear insult to toxic injury, didn’t Daddy ever think to mention to his precious offspring, the blushing bride, (or her twin) that at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds, "The Home of Army Ordnance," www.apg.army.mil/apghome/sites/about/history.asp and national premier military command center for chemical, biological, and nuclear testing not far from where Jenna and hubby will be living, this military compound fires dangerous, radioactive and toxic Depleted Uranium right into her none-too-precious, stinky Baltimore air?
Who really knows why Jenna and Mr. Jenna Bush will be making their love nest in Baltimore, not far from the horrid Depleted Uranium contaminating Aberdeen Proving Grounds? And who can really tell us why Dubya’s son-in-law will be settling in to a cozy position with Maryland’s top corporate nuclear polluter?
In any case, for those of us who do care about other humans - we, the ninety percent (90%) of Americans who possess a working conscience and know it is morally wrong to harm others, still must do all we can to resist this massive nuking of our nation. For starters, we must all scream bloody murder – quite literally - at our legislators to stop this government-sanctioned, national radiological madness. Together, we must make life uncomfortable for fascist sell-outs like Democrats Senator Barbara Mikulski and Governor Martin O'Malley who are Good-To-Go with the widespread nuclear onslaught of our people and our environment.
May God and Goddess help Marylanders! And, since these radionuclides do not have the common courtesy to stop at the Maryland state border - and thus also contaminate the good people of Delaware, Pennsylvania, Washington, DC, Virginia, and beyond? May our God and Goddess also help us… one and all.
And let’s just hope that, in among the lavish wedding gifts the happy Mr. and Mrs. Jenna Bush couple received on their glorious day, was also a pair of matching “His and Her” gas masks with HEPA filters to shield them from Maryland’s abundantly radiation-filled air. Yet, even if they did receive these air purifying gifts - arguably more practical and infinitely more necessary than any mere toaster or blender? We must still keep our fingers crossed some brand new science has been able to render the newlyweds’ gas masks capable of never-before-available, advanced technology that would make their air filters capable of catching sub-micron sized toxic and radioactive nano-particles that conventional radiological protective gear issued to our soldiers overseas in combat can not!
Do you take issue to the federally-sanctioned nuking of America? If so, please consider taking up the fight against the federal use of Depleted Uranium, “the gift that keeps on giving,” with its half-life of 4.5 billion years- contaminating America’s air, water, and soil for eternity.
In addition, please help oppose the building of this new nuclear reactor on the Chesapeake Bay – courtesy of Mr. Jenna Bush’s employer, Constellation Energy, that’s been quietly, invisibly nuking Marylanders since 1975. Please contact Chesapeake Safe Energy www.safeenergymd.org/ for more details on how to help stop the further onslaught of further nuclear emissions into the Baltimore/DC area’s air.

And please tell your friends, your neighbors, and all those in positions of political power that the use of Uranium poison gas is a weapon considered a violation of our basic human rights in the US, granted to us under international law.
