The First Supreme Council: Charleston, 1801
Then on May 31, 1801, the first Supreme Council of the Thirty-third Degree, the Mother Council of the World, declared its existence with a motto of “Ordo ab Chao” (Order from Chaos).
It announced a new 33-degree system of high degrees that incorporated all 25 of the Order of the Royal Secret, and added eight more, including that of 33°, Sovereign Grand Inspector General.
This new organization declared control of high-degree Masonry in America.

Washington Post: Satirical Web Site Poses Political Test

...
Exley created the political parody website, GWBush.com, as well as cnndn.com, a site that parodied financial reporting.
Both sites attracted legal action by the 2000 Bush presidential campaign and CNN, respectively. CNN successfully closed cnndn.com.
The Bush attack led to increased publicity for Exley's site and set legal precedent [6] that has allowed political websites to operate without FEC regulation.
In response to GWBush.com, George W. Bush—then a presidential candidate—called Exley a "garbage man" and said he believed the website should be forced to be shut down, explaining:
"There ought to be limits to freedom."[7]

About the Awards
Since 1992, the Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression has celebrated the birth and ideals of its namesake by calling attention to those who in the past year forgot or disregarded Mr. Jefferson’s admonition that freedom of speech “cannot be limited without being lost.”
Announced on or near April 13—the anniversary of the birth of Thomas Jefferson—the Jefferson Muzzles are awarded as a means to draw national attention to abridgments of free speech and press and, at the same time, foster an appreciation for those tenets of the First Amendment.
One of the 2000 Jefferson Muzzles went to: The George W. Bush Presidential Campaign

The George W. Bush Presidential Campaign:
"There ought to be limits to freedom."
-- Presidential candidate George W. Bush
In early April, 1999, computer consultant Zack Exley posted on the Internet a Web site parody of the official Web site of presidential candidate George W. Bush.
To create the site, Exley bought the domain address of "gwbush.com," copied the official campaign site and then revised its content for obvious comic effect.
Some of the changes included replacing the Bush campaign slogan "Prosperity with a Purpose" with "Hypocrisy with Bravado," and altering official campaign photographs of Bush to show a smudge of white powder under his nose or a straw inserted up his nostril.
On April 14, Benjamin Ginsberg, Counsel to the Governor George W. Bush Presidential Exploratory Committee, wrote to Exley demanding that he "cease and desist your misappropriation of the materials on the Exploratory Committee's copyright and trademark-protected Web site." Ginsberg threatened to sue Exley if immediate action was not taken. The Committee also began registering dozens of other potentially pejorative domain names to prevent others from similarly poking fun at their candidate.
Fearing a lawsuit, Exley removed the material he had extracted from the official Bush Web site but replaced it with other features satirizing Bush. In response, on May 3 the Bush campaign filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission asking the FEC to force Exley to comply with the rules regulating political committees.
The rationale of the complaint was that by virtue of Exley's attacks on Bush's character, he had "expressly advocate[d] the election or defeat of a clearly identified federal candidate" and was therefore a political action committee (PAC). In a May 21 press conference, Bush himself stated "[t]here ought to be limits to freedom. We're aware of the site, and this guy is just a garbage man." The FEC has yet to rule on the complaint.
With the advent of the Internet, Web sites satirizing or criticizing political candidates are not uncommon (e.g. albore.com, hilaryno.com).
And like those others, Exley's Web site probably would have been largely ignored by the general public absent something calling it to the attention of the press. The action by the Bush campaign did just that.
Soon Exley's site was attracting up to 100,000 visitors a day. By comparison, the official Bush campaign site received approximately 10,000 hits during May 1999.
As one reporter stated, "Bush might have been wiser to emulate his father, George Bush, who has good-naturedly mimicked impressionist Dana Carvey's imitations of himself."
Caustic cartoons and biting political satire have been part of the American political landscape since the presidential candidacy of George Washington.
If George W. Bush responds this way to criticism as a candidate, one might wonder how he would respond to such criticism as President. In an editorial, John W. Whitehead, President of the Rutherford Institute and co-counsel to Paula Jones in her sexual-harassment suit against President Clinton, wrote: '[A] major issue in the coming years -- years that Bush is seeking to spend as president -- will be the extent to which our society protects free expression on the Internet.
Given his outrage over gwbush.com, it seems that a Bush presidency could be a blow to freedom online."
For showing a thin skin and a profound lack of a sense of humor, the Thomas Jefferson Center awards The George W. Bush Presidential Campaign a 2000 Jefferson Muzzle.
UPDATE: On April 14, 2000, the FEC dismissed the Bush complaint stating, "this matter is less significant relative to other matters pending before the Commission."

Dallas Morning News - Bush criticizes Web site as malicious
Owner calls it a parody of White House bid
05/22/99
By Wayne Slater / The Dallas Morning News
AUSTIN - Saying "there ought to be limits to freedom," Gov. George W. Bush has filed a legal complaint against the owners of a Web site that lampoons his White House bid.
The designer of the unofficial Bush site described it on Friday as a parody and said the governor is trying to limit what is written about him on the Internet.
But Mr. Bush, a front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, had harsh words Friday for the site (www.gwbush.com), which offers mock interviews and policy initiatives on drugs and crime.
"There's a lot of garbage in politics, and, obviously, this is a garbage man," said Mr. Bush.
Attorneys for the Bush presidential exploratory committee have filed complaints with the Federal Election Commission seeking to have the owners post a disclaimer identifying who built the site and who is paying for it.
"It [the site] is filled with libelous and untrue statements whose aim is to damage Governor Bush," the campaign said in its letter to the FEC. "The headline of the site is, 'Just Say No to Former Cocaine User for President.' This site's innuendoes and false statements attack the governor's positions on tough standards for convicted drug dealers."
Karen Hughes, a Bush campaign spokeswoman, said the site so closely resembles the official Bush campaign site (www.georgewbush.com) that people could be confused. Ms. Hughes said the unofficial site urges people to vote against Mr. Bush, making it subject to federal disclosure requirements.
Sites that are strongly critical of candidates but do not urge voters to take action are exempt from federal rules.
Frank Guerrero, a spokesman for the designer, said the site is meant to poke fun at Mr. Bush by comparing what he calls his "youthful indiscretions" with his tough-on-crime policies as an adult.
He said the site does not advocate the defeat of any candidate and is such a clear parody that no one would confuse it for the real Bush campaign Web page.
"We're not affiliated with any other campaign," said Mr. Guerrero of the site's designer, Rtmark, a loose-knit group of corporate critics. "In fact, we see ourselves as completely nonpartisan."
The FEC confirmed Friday that it had received a complaint but declined to discuss the case, citing agency rules.
Ron Harris, an FEC spokesman, said the commission has not dealt with many Internet-related complaints and the current case could break new legal ground on how the Web is governed under campaign laws.
The unofficial Bush site has a photo of Mr. Bush and a banner that reads, "Presidential Exploratory Committee."
It includes a mock initiative dubbed "Amnesty 2000," which suggests Mr. Bush would pardon prisoners convicted of drug crimes if they have "grown up."
As a potential presidential candidate, Mr. Bush has declined "to catalogue my youthful indiscretions," saying that he has learned from his mistakes.
The site also pokes fun at Mr. Bush's characterization of himself as a "compassionate conservative."
"G.W. Bush has indeed been forgiven again and again by others. First there was his rambunctious youth," the site says.
"Then, as an unsuccessful Texas businessman, he was bailed out with millions of dollars from friends of his vice president father. As president, G.W. Bush wants to create an America in which everyone gets as much forgiveness and as many chances to grow up as he had."
The Bush campaign filed an initial complaint about the look-alike Bush site in April. Mr. Guerrero said changes were made so it would look less like the official site, but Bush campaign lawyers filed a second complaint with the FEC this month demanding a disclaimer and disclosure of funding sources.
"We appreciate humor. We appreciate parody. George Bush is known for his sense of humor," said Ms. Hughes. "But there's a difference between expressing opinion, poking fun and breaking the law."
Mr. Guerrero estimated about $70 had been spent to construct the site. He said the money came from Zack Exley, a Massachusetts computer consultant who initially registered and maintains the gwbush.com site.
Bush campaign political consultant Karl Rove has purchased at least 60 domain names that include the Bush name in an apparent attempt to curtail other anti-Bush site-makers.
"We've put out a request for domain names for [Vice President Al] Gore as well," said Mr. Guerrero. "We're trying to be bipartisan."

So, what's the big deal you might ask.
Just another, so-called, "Bushism"?
An innocuos, off the cuff remark, portraying no indication of intent, nor carrying any allegorical significance?
Or something else altogether?

Note: each 11 is also P5 = P( 3+1+1 ), so this would also yield:

3119 3119 3119
Note: This becomes NORMAL date duration from 21st Jan 1989 = 1st day "in office".

= P( 6 x 6 x 6 ) months > 666
216 is also = 66+6 + 66+6 + 66+6 months > 666 666 666

Which brings much needed "illumination" to the entire "production" ...

... "studying the reality of 21st May 1999, - judiciously, as the world community must" - just another day in "The Empire" ...
