Click here for some intel from the Blunder’s website. Something much be up… is Fathausen going to appoint a successor to Dickie? Is so, when? I wonder how the Centre wants to proceed in re the OCA Representation Church in Moscow… why hasn’t Lil’ Mizz Ginny posted this on oca.org? After all, oca.org IS the official OCA website, and it IS news if a senior cleric goes to the Centre and concelebrates with the Blunder. Lil’ Mizz Ginny has an arse-backwards sense of responsibility, and is a reliable liar for the First Family faction and a willing shill for Fathausen and the konvertsy claque about him.
Remember how Fathausen promised that he wouldn’t be as secretive as Herman was? That WAS true… he’s not been “as secretive”… he’s been “more secretive”, to the point of being a self-absorbed sociopath. It speaks volumes about his konvertsy supporters, especially the HOOMie cultists. Don’t forget, the reports about abuse in their ranks won’t die… do look up Cappy and Mel at Pokrov.org for the details (their courage in reporting abuse amongst the clergy was the real reason for Velencia’s suit against them… note well that the konvertsy were silent at the spectacle of a suspended priest suing a priest in good standing).
It’s time for the OCA to go… it DIDN’T support the Centre in the latest kafuffle regarding HH, did it? By keeping silent, the OCA supported the godless attack on the Church led by Berezovsky and orchestrated by Langley. That’s unconscionable…

On Tuesday, Greek media reported that Greek seamen begin a 48-hour strike leaving all ships and ferries anchored at ports and disrupting plans of thousands of people ahead of Orthodox Easter holidays this week. Earlier, the Pan-Hellenic Seamen’s Federation (PNO) demanded that the Greek government not reduce seamen’s pensions during the financial crisis in the country, but on the contrary, should raise them. The state refused the demand, so, the PNO decided to go on strike, which observers expect to deliver a major blow to both domestic and foreign tourism. Two months ago, the Greek parliament approved a deeply unpopular austerity bill envisaging belt-tightening wage and pension cuts. The move sparked off mass protests all over Greece.

Editor’s Note:
Observe that the government demands that all the sacrifice in the current crisis must come from the working and salaried classes. However, they didn’t benefit from the government’s profligate ways, which were a result of overspending on arms from France and Germany. That’s to say, the political class and the bourgeoisie profited, whilst the working people and lower-level managers/professionals bore the pain when the crunch came. NO sacrifice is asked from the McMansion class… whilst the “middle class” above-the-median sorts call those beneath them “drones”… “greedy”… “irresponsible”. Some call me an “extreme leftist” for pointing this up. So be it… if that be the cost for speaking the truth, it’s a small and reasonable one. As the pols, pundits, and fat cats all preach “austerity”, well, let them practise it too! If the workers lose 10 percent in wages or pensions, the loud-mouthed political, managerial, and chattering classes should have their tax burden raised by 15 percent… somehow, I think that “austerity” would lose its popularity rather quickly, don’t you agree?
