That is no moon
That is the biggest grain of salt I have ever seen connected to a Flea-post. The subject: George W. Bush, Barbara Bush, and Aleister Crowley (via comment at Rantburg).
Few people understand that one of the most notorious individuals in British history may have contributed to the lineage of our current president. Aleister Crowley, a.k.a., "The Great Beast 666" -- the infamous practitioner of "sex magick" whose motto was "Do What Thou Wilt" -- came to know a great many remarkable people, including the maternal grandmother of George W. Bush. "Know," in this case, may be taken in the Biblical sense. Evidence points to the disturbing possibility that he was the true father of Barbara Bush, the former First Lady and mother to George W. Bush.
I do not expect most Flea-readers to share my fascination with Crowleyanity in all its particulars. But this being the week of the Democratic National Convention it seems appropriate to post on the theme of "people with believe anything".

What a lovely, if implausible, speculation. Crowleyanity interests me purely as a result of my interest in Anthony Powell; but they don't make mages like they used to.
