George Bush: 1 for 1 in 2004.
2004-11-05 17:58:03 UTC
You should have seen the long faces at the market and in the streets,
even at the bank. Looked like everyone had lost a dear, loved one.
Everyone was in mourning. This must have been what it looked like when
Kennedy was shot. People in deep shock, moving zombie-like through the
familiar, but un-noticed routine of their lives, their minds sunken in
incredulity, uncomprehending how the Barbarians relentlessly dismantling
America, could have been "voted" back in for another 4 years. Another 4
years of lies, murder, mayhem and madness? Ugh!
In a recent essay, I spoke of the futility of the election process. See
http://www.rense.com/general58/voting.htm
Many persons e-mailed me in response to that post, accepting my premise.
However, most were still committed to voting for Kerry, intent on seeing
that Bush never got reelected. Trouble is, the majority of those people
were thinking that the GOP was depending on the voting process to get
their man back in the White House. The nation failed to rid itself of
the greater part of its domestic enemies because of its childish faith
in a broken system and its unwillingness to see what was directly in
front of it. Will we have elections in 2008? What will the people do
then to ensure that they are not fraudulent? Between now and then, will
we have demanded accountability and prosecuted everyone involved in the
on-going destruction of this nation? Will we have a full-blown police
state, or will we have salvaged our nation and restored it to its former
status, and better?
It is a known fact that the GOP did not win the 2000 elections. Thus the
President these last 4 years should have been Al Gore. What road would
our nation be on now had Gore occupied the White House? At any rate, as
a nation, we failed to address the problem of the Florida elections and
thus allowed someone who lost to be selected by corrupt justices to be
President. Next came 9/11, a fortuitous "Pearl Harbor" event that
allowed the Bush cabal to catapult the nation in the direction
desired--unlimited international conflicts without end for the seizure
of resources, and to redefine the geopolitics of the planet. Most
Americans were happy hating Bin Laden and sending their sons and
daughters off to kill innocent Muslims. Even as the body bags and the
lies piled up, Americans did not seem to waver in their determination to
line up like hapless lemmings behind the man, Bush. Now comes 2005.
"Another 4 years". Unfortunately, although some are ecstatic about that
little GOP ditty, "another 4 years" will certainly prove to be a curse
on both the US and the rest of the World.
In a sense, those who felt certain that Kerry would win are to be
excused for their naivete. After all, which other President in history
has stimulated such an abundance of books, calendars, stand-up comic
routines, films, DVDs, CDs, talk shows, bumper stickers and other
paraphernalia that captured the witlessness of the resident of the White
House? Even while the economy seemed to be going South, the revenue from
anti-Bush bumper stickers should have been enough to pay down the budget
deficit. He was a good stimulus for the economy, stupid! At any rate,
the screw-ups of this Administration, their lies, crimes and cover-ups
were thoroughly documented and put out there on the internet and in the
mainstream media, for all to see. There was enough information to
convince everyone that this Administration had to go. They were
convinced that he was going.
Surely this nightmarish scenario had to end. We watched as hundreds of
thousands of us got laid off, as our jobs went overseas while we trained
our foreign replacements. Our CEOs reaped huge bonuses as we stood in
the unemployment lines. The tax-cuts the rich received went to stimulate
jobs, but not here at home. Our communities were failing. The only hope
for our youth was to join the Armed Forces and sign up to murder
innocent people in exotic countries so they could go to college, or one
day buy a home where they could quietly die from DU poisoning. The
American Dream could only be purchased with Muslim blood. We didn't
flinch at that. We stood at attention and saluted as the body bags
arrived. "We have to fight those terr'ists, you know".
We were even prepared to give up all our freedoms and agree to
communally spit on the Constitution, while wrapping ourselves in the
flag and yellow ribbons, just so we could do shock and awe unto others
so they couldn't do shock and awe unto us. Are we totally nuts? Who in
his right mind would want 4 more years of this? How much more are we
prepared to give up for lies, the destruction of our once proud Republic
and the embroiling of the entire planet in unremitting bloodshed? No
other President has had more demonstrations against him both at home and
abroad. No one is more universally hated and despised. Yet, here he
is...bigger and bolder than ever. 4 more years of shock and awe on the
planet.
How foolish to think that having stolen the elections in 2002, that the
perps would contentedly allow themselves to be kicked out in 2004? Think
about it, folks. If you were able to stage a successful coup that gave
you total control over the most powerful military and financial
apparatus in History, and your control over the nation's legal apparatus
meant that you were safe from any kind of prosecution, why would you
want to give it up? Some years ago, I had to sue someone in Small Claims
Court, for the return of a deposit on a rental. If I had not done that,
this rascal would have made off with almost $2,000. He countersued. I
won. Obviously, this individual was prepared to take the risk of being
sued and countersuing, a small, low-cost inconvenience, in order to gain
$2000. What would the Bush Administration we willing to pay, or do, to
preserve the multibillion dollar gravy train set up as a result of its
policies over the past 4 years, most notably the launching of the phony
War on Terror? And when the cost of subverting the election process (by
forcing the States to spend millions on fraud-friendly voting systems),
can be passed on to "we the people", why should they worry?
Imagine mandating only paperless balloting, when the nation's best
computer engineering minds have told us that such a system is
untrustworthy. Imaging the fact that the companies providing the
machines are in the hands of men sworn to "reelecting" the incumbent.
Imagine that some of these men have criminal backgrounds, some of whom
are blackmailable. Is it reasonable to think that the system would not
be exploited to ensure the appearance that the incumbent was reelected?
(For the best analysis on this, please visit www.invisibleballots.com
and order their video "Invisible Ballots".)
It is clear to me that if we could put ourselves in the shoes of the
Administration, we would see that the Elections was just another little
nuisance event that had to be "handled". We the people were not really
going to be allowed to determine who got to sleep in the White House.
November 2 wasn't going to be Judgment Day. We could naively choose to
believe otherwise to our shame and peril. However, what was at stake was
infinitely too enormous to allow the people to decide by voting.
Elections '04 was just another item on a long list of things to be
"handled" in such a way as to ensure the uninterrupted continuity of the
agenda. We may speculate about the way this matter was handled, but when
we understand the enormity of what was at stake, we can easily see that
the powers that be had no other choice but to do whatever it took to
remain in control. For one simple thing, too many crimes in high places
have been and are being exposed. The only way to avoid prosecution is to
remain in power. Watch for an aggressive move to shut down any
investigation into the Executive crimes of the last 4 years.
Another piece of tell-tale evidence is the sickening attempts by the
newsfakers of CNN and Fox, and the talk show punditocracy, to spin the
so-called GOP "victory". There was no victory. There was merely another
coup. On the night of the election, one such presstitute made the
comment that a Bush win would mean that "morality trumped the issues". I
was shocked and in awe at the remorseless arrogance of these people.
What morality? You mean the fact that Bush claims to be anti-gay
marriage and anti-abortion? Since when was morality selective?
I recall a Chris Rock routine in which he made fun of Big Pharma TV
commercials. "They're bound to get you with one of those symptoms", he
quipped. 'Do you go to bed at night and wake up in the morning?' Huh?
That's me. I've got those symptoms. I need that medication!" Some voted
for Bush, believing that he is anti-gay and anti-abortion. However, the
point is that whether Bush is anti-gay marriage, or anti-abortion makes
no difference. Homosexuality will not go away and neither will abortion.
Talk is cheap and it gets votes. In 2000, one foolish woman told me she
was going to vote for Bush because he went to Church! Yikes! At any
rate, this press whore, ever ready to uphold the Fox tradition of
reporting narrow-minded opinion as hot news, told us that "morality had
trumped the issues".
Thus the critical issues facing the nation were not important to the
majority of people. But was that true? Quick, can anyone point out the
morality of uttering 237 lies (per Sen. Henry Waxman. See
http://www.apfn.net/messageboard/03-18-04/discussion.cgi.30.html),
bearing false witness against our Muslim neighbors and launching Shock
and Awe on defeated and defenseless nations, murdering hundreds of
thousands of innocent women and children? I get it: Its immoral to kill
the child when he's in the womb, but it is perfectly moral to kill both
mother and child once he's born. Glad you cleared that up for me. If
this is the morality of the Immoral Majority that voted for Bush, the
world is headed towards a very bleak future indeed.
Next morning, flipping channels for some election coverage to confirm
what I already suspected when I went to sleep the night before, another
Fox presstitute, opining the News, declared that the fact that Merck
stock was "taking off" on the GOP win meant that "Republicans obviously
did not support cheap drugs from Canada". What? I quickly switched off
the infernal thing as if stung by a viper. Amazing! What Republicans
don't support cheaper drugs from Canada? The poor, fixed-income
Republican widows who are watching their vital medications escalate in
cost every week and who would love to get them even at the price they
paid for them last week? Or did that prattling head mean those fat cat
Republicans who are busy ripping off the nation, exporting jobs overseas
and turning the country into the newest member of Third World Developing
Countries? She didn't specify. Funny how these same Republicans support
the flooding of the country with the cheapest goods manufactured in
China, (even the American flags so instantly available right after 9/11,
that adorned every car and home), but not lower priced medications from
Canada for needy people. For anyone still watching Fox, my sympathies.
May your brains R.I.P.
Quo vadis, America? My guess is that 9/11 was not just a "Pearl Harbor"
for the warmongers. It also signalled the dawning of a new age of truth.
We live in a world of duality. With the big lie of 9/11 came the truth,
side by side. That truth has been spreading like wildfire from person to
person, via the internet, via books, CDs, DVDs, cinema, what have you.
Over the past three years, millions of people have been inoculated with
the serum of truth. This Administration has been so in-your-face, so
arrogant, so blatantly corrupt, that they have managed to expose things
that would have remained hidden for decades to come. We must be grateful
for that. Many sleepers have been awakened to the dangerous excesses of
the Bush Administration. They will not sit idly by just waiting for the
curse of the last 4 years to repeat. Many will certainly pack up and
leave. Others are going to recognize that America would have no foreign
enemies if she did not have the domestic enemies that she does. Many of
these people are going to become active patriots. My guess is that the
actions of the Bush Administration have unintentionally created a
turned-on population. It is clear now why the Patriot Act was conceived.
Patriots are definitely not welcome here.
Look for more synthetic terror strikes to generate more fear and to keep
the lemmings in line. And as General Tommy Franks has certified, the
Constitution will be history and the US will become another Banana
Republic. But take heart, America and the world. Everything is temporary.
The illegal and ill-conceived American Empire, one anathema to the very
Constitution of the US, and all that it was conceived to serve and
accomplish, will self-destruct in a fraction of the time it took to
create it. It will go the way of Rome and all the other hubristic
imperial endeavors of old. Undoubtedly, it is an evil empire in the
truest sense of the term, one based on greed, deception and hatred,
supported by mass-murder and repression, its leaders drunken on a lethal
mix of privilege, unaccountability, pride and arrogance. However, and
most importantly, truth, its most deadly enemy, has already begun to
attack the Empire's very marrow like the deadliest of auto-immune
diseases, and is slowly but inexorably eating away at it. It may achieve
its blighted goals in the short term, with great endeavor and bloodshed,
but it will not survive its success.
That is certain. Adolph Hitler taught us that.
