Most of the Nostradamus quatrains deal with disasters, such as plagues, earthquakes, wars, floods, invasions, murders, droughts, and battles

WASHINGTON DC - USA - Scholars for the Smithsonian Institute have uncovered new interpretations that may relate to Barack Obama, the Illinois senator vying to become the next US president.
Professor Eugene Randell, Deputy Director of the Smithsonian Institution Archives has released information pertaining to the up and coming US elections.
The Institute which holds some very rare Nostradamus manuscripts, believes that some of the quatrains written by the 16th century soothsayer are very close to describing the fight for the White House that is happening now.
"We have the only existing fourth edition of Nostradamus' book Les Propheties (The Prophecies). There were thought to be only three editions published in 1558, this new edition is from 1559 and includes 20 more quatrains which have never been revealed before -- that is, until now," Professor Randell said from the archive office on Tuesday.
Nostradamus has been credited with predicting numerous events in world history, from the Great Fire of London, the rise of Napoleon I of France, the French Revolution and Adolf Hitler, to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.
The professor told the Daily Squib that it is well known that some of the quatrains are open to interpretation however what he has translated from the previously unreleased manuscript will certainly "ruffle a few feathers".
243 The great empire will be torn from limb, The all-powerful one for more than four hundred years: Great power given to the dark one from slaves come, The Aryana will not be satisfied thereby.
Nostradamus' previously unreleased quatrains are a heavily guarded secret and the scholars have broken with tradition to reveal a few tidbits in the Smithsonian's monthly circular.
We leave it to our esteemed readers to make up their own minds. However, it seems that with the release of the new quatrains the race for the White House may have been already written about many centuries ago.
Most of the Nostradamus quatrains deal with disasters, such as plagues, earthquakes, wars, floods, invasions, murders, droughts, and battles
This one seems to imply Hillary will win:
The great empire will be born from thigh,
The all-powerful one for more than what seems like forever:
Great power given to the one in Pantsuit,
The Bill will not be satisfied with the Babe.
You do realize that the Daily Squib is a humor publication, right?
The best-known ones predicted the death of a French king (and described it: a jousting accident), wife of Catherine DeMedici, and also the one found by Magda Goebbels and brought to the attention of the top Nazis, that seemed to describe Hitler's coming and very nearly got his name right, as "Hister".
This one, if it's not a spoof and it really does refer to the U.S. at all, seems to guarantee us until sometime after the year 2200 to keep our stuff together.
Its hard to know what is reality these days
More like Nostra-dumba$$: Barack Obama isn't descended from slaves...his father was a black Kenyan and his mother a white American...and I think Arianna Huffington will be well pleased and satisfied should he win.
Nostradamus can be interpreted to mean anything about anything. He’s kind of like climate change theory that way, and about as scientific.
And did Nostradamus really hand down ancient, sacred secrets to the descendants of Martin Van Buren? That's what I want to know. The Rhomboids say they've got the stuff now, if I want in.
This story should have provided a clue....
LOS ANGELES - CA - The photoshop retouching artists who have been employed by pop star Britney Spears since the beginning of her career have gone on strike indefinitely, their union official said today.
The dedicated team of photoshop artists and retouchers who have been instrumental in Britney’s media image were on strike today.
The twenty strong team are usually working 24 hours a day on their high-end Macs churning out doctored pictures of Britney, but for now are relegated to playing video games in their studio.
“I’ve had enough, man! We don’t get paid enough for this stuff. It used to be about a few alterations like a pimple here or there. She is unworkable now, she is so fu**ed up. No amount of photoshop can save her now,” Scott Wilson is head digital retoucher for the team and holds up a picture of Britney looking bloated, sweating and drugged up.

Ms Spears goes through one manager per week and is currently looking for another one at the moment.
John Roberts recounts the ‘good ol’ days’, “I was there in the beginning when Britney was wearing her school uniform and miming to the songs on MTV. Now she can’t even mime right, plus she looks like a cross between Ron Jeremy and a trailer-trash two bit hooker on Meth.”
“Our team has worked on digitally creating tropical rainforests and ancient Rome from scratch, but Britney is the biggest challenge we have ever had, and i’m sorry to say we gave up on this one.”

Heck ...that coulda happened
LOS ANGELES - CA - Heather Mills McCartney has grown an additional leg in an astonishing discovery today at a Strictly Come Dancing filming session.
Scientists are today astonished that ‘Lucky’ Heather Mills, the soon to be ‘very rich’ ex-wife of Beatle Paul McCartney, has grown an extra limb.
The astounding spectacle was discovered at the Los Angeles studios for the new Come Dancing series.

Lady Mucca who was seen attending court last Thursday in central London was spied in a wheelchair with a face that looked like a smacked arse. She declined to make any comment to Squib reporter Ernest Bunkerwinkle but instead continued to feign agony.
SNIP
Audience members on the show were astonished to see her appear from the wings and careen across the dance floor like a caterpillar.
“She moved fast, man! I never seen anyone move like that. One second she was there, then next she was on the other motherfu**ing side!” an excited audience member told the Daily Squib.
“It was hard for her partner to keep up with her moves. She was twirling, spinning and scuttling across the dance floor like a spider on methamphetamine,” said Len Goodman, one of the judges who dared make a comment after the performance.
The rest of the judges for the competition however are debating whether a three legged dancer is permissible. The rules clearly state that contestants must be human with two legs or less.

Between the bushes from the Lone Star
Arose the mediocre leader.
A hideous witch by his side,
The head of a rotund woman in his lap.
Nostrodamous nailed it, didn't he?
However, while rummaging through the attic of the old Van Buren homestead in Kinderhook, NY, I did find leather-bound folios full of old French quatrains. In the hope that they contained valuable info about the lottery, I gave them to a French-Canadian guy I know, Jean-Guy LaBrecque, to translate, but he mistakenly used them as kindling for his sugar boiler.
Later that very day, I won $2 on a scratcher. So I take his prediction about Algonquin J. Obama quite seriously.
He predicted you’d past that.
(Actually predicted my response to your post. However, he missed the whole steroid scandal in Major League Baseball...)
Wrong-o misspelled battery-boy. It was in those burned folios. My French, she is not that great, but I can read
"Canpleko juiced to
send orb aloft
in the Giant Bond of burned section
No, but you did! lol
I will admit I post it whenever the opportunity arises, though.
Woofie! (if that’s your REAL name)...
Are you SURE you’re not THE Nostradamus??
Your prediction sounds DEAD ON!!! I’m dyin!
Awesome quatrain dude!
