| The World Is Waiting For Americans to Take Back America, To Rescue
Her. But you Don't Enable Co-Dependents

Most of the billions of people on this planet have been in shock. They
are as disappointed, as disgusted and horrified by what the Bush coup
d'etat regime has been doing. But finally, the tide has turned, and
now, the majority of Americans, according to the latest Newsweek
poll, want George W. Bush replaced.
Throughout Europe, the middle east, and most of the third world, the
people have been let down by America the Great. It has been replaced by
America the oaf, America the bully, America the rapist, America the
corrupt and America the dishonest thief.
So these billions of humans, awed by the super power of the US, are
waiting, waiting for the good people of the US tto rescue the America they
used to know from the clutches of the goons who have been screwing her up,
to rescue the world from a USA gone mad and stupid.
Of course, lately, those oafish goons running America into the ground
have been asking for help. Like sloppy drunks, making a big mess and then
asking for help cleaning it up, the republicans running the whitehouse
have made weak attempts to seek help from other nations and the UN.
Appropriately, these failed leaders have been rejected.
The truth is, the whole world wants to help the US, but like loving
family members dealing with a drug user or alcoholic (oh, that's right,
George W. was both, wasn't he?) the best way to help is not to continue
enabling the unhealthy behavior. There's a massive literature on
codependency. You don't keep enabling someone to go on doing the kinds of
behaviors that get them in trouble. If you try, you usually get hurt.
That's what happened to the UN Baghdad mission. That's what will happen to
the troops of countries that try to be supportive of the US now, while it
is being run by fools who refuse to face up to their irresponsible, inept
lack of planning on what to do after they won their easy, photo-op war.
It will take American citizens to take back America. Just going out and
voting won't do it either. There's far too much corruption in the voting
business. First, Americans must clean up the vote-- to prevent "floridization"
of the election process-- the use of partisan companies to selectively
eliminate tens of thousands of democrat voters. They must fix the massive
problems with computerized, electronic voting. There are signs that this
technology is being set up for corruption by the biggest military
contractors. Dennis Kucinich told me he's working on a bill that will
governmentize-- the reverse of privatize-- all software used for
electronic voting. And that's the way it should be. Every ballot should be
a paper ballot, and it should be hand counted. There are too many ways to
corrupt the process by hacking the software. (click

Once there's an honest and clean election process, THEN, Americans will
easily take back America. They will reinstate visions of patriotism that
respect constitutional rights, that respect other nations, particularly
ones that democratically elect their leaders. Americans will take back
control of government, taking it away from mega-corporations and
lobbyists. We will take back the media, and the environment, making laws
that respect the future. Because it is America's future that has been
stolen, that has been utterly trashed by the corrupt revolutionaries who
criminally manipulated the Florida elections to steal the presidency.
The world is waiting for the good people of the US to wake up, waiting
for us to throw the bad guys out. And it's going to happen. We're moving
into hurricane season, and there's a wind blowing across America, from sea
to shining sea, blowing away the numbing mist that has befuddled the good
people of America, that has left us sleeping in the poppy fields, like
Dorothy in Wizard of OZ. We are waking up and we don't like what we see.
that wind is THE TRUTH. It is shining light upon the lies and corruption,
the sell-outs to corporations... Soon enough, as more and more
Americans come out of their haze, their testosterone stupor, and realize
that talking macho is not the kind of strength a real leader shows, the
good Americans will rescue the Good USA that the world's citizens used to
be able to trust and respect.
Soldiers will tell their true stories of the mess that is Iraq. Bush
and company can't keep them there forever. Once they return home the word
will no longer be censored. We'll hear about the massive failure of the
USA's Iraq endeavor.
More diplomats and CIA and FBI agents will come forward. They are
patriots, misguided in beleiving that the current president is the object
of their patriotism. As they awaken to realize that it is their country,
not it's president they must support, then they will cast more light on
the darkness that is the Bush regime. And with their awakening, and the
new light they cast, American will rise the occasion. Justice and
Democracy will prevail. The world will have an America back that is
healthy enough to be helped. And all the world will rush to help us then.
The light is beginning to show at the end of the tunnel.
