From Steamshovel Press #10:
Quigley Live
by Len Bracken
In casting a secret ballot, one casts a ballot for secrets.
Like people involved in crime, those who use the ballot box are
afraid that their acts will become known, or afraid to authorize
a government to act in their name. The secret ballot is a way to
avoid responsibility in much the same way that a well-kept secret
protects a criminal. And if one is to believe the secret of
Carroll Quigley's The Anglo-American Establishment - the strange
tale of the semi-secret Rhodes-Milner Group by the late
Georgetown University professor and Bill Clinton mentor -
democracy is nothing more than a tool of control for global
market planning.
Secret ballots, secret societies and secrets in general
strike me as laughably childish in light of the fact that,
eventually, everything becomes known. The world-wide money cartel
described by Quigley was even referred to as "Milner's
Kindergarten." Most of us are as curious as children when we see
the smoke and hear the whispers - we want to discover the secret.
Quigley says as much in reference to what provoked his study of
the French Revolution of 1789: "I always had the eyes of a
child."
According to the Washington Post Clinton has evoked Quigley
lectures as "the rhetorical foundation for his political
philosophy" as if they were an enchanted childhood memory
revolving around the American dream like his trip to the White
House to meet JFK. In speeches made a decade after Clinton was at
Georgetown, Quigley sounds nothing like the convinced imbecile
who would have him say "America is the greatest country in the
history of the world."
Here's Quigley speaking for himself: "Secrecy in government
exists for only one reason: to prevent the American people from
knowing what's going on. It is nonsense to believe that anything
our government does is not known to the Russians at about the
moment it happens." The
