The prophets of the bible harrangues evil leaders that they do not look out for the widows and the orphans. Yes, it's about evil. And its infiltration into our ruling circles is palpable.
2) And the other world-degrading act-- a grab to control Iraq, an act that has torn up the vital structures of our international system.
These structures are vital because much that is vital for the future of humankind requires the world to act in greater consort, maintaining justice and limiting the terrible things that have always happened in the anarchy that is the intersocietal system. (See THE PARABLE OF THE TRIBES)
What a dark spirit it is that has worked through George W. Bush to achieve such terrible things. It has degraded everything it has touched.
The richest are getting still richer while the mass of people are struggling more and more. And they give themselves a tax cut. The world looks at us with dread and disgust.
That whole movement that sought that tax cut was an evil spirit, the spirit of greed. And the coldness of heart. Mercy is not part of its repertoire.
No mercy. Tom DeLay took no prisoners-- and he was the most powerful Republican on Capital Hill. And a gangster.
This is not because Tom Delay is too much of an animal. Look at that guy. He has no connection with his animal body. If he is sexually fulfilled, I don't have the ability to read bodies that I think I have. No animal here. (This is not how a male animal walks!)
It's about evil. It destroys and does so with the face that belongs in a horror show.
Just the spirit of a killer. Take no prisoners. A vengeful spirit. Without needing any real moral claim to seek further vengeance. The spirit of a killer. And he's the one that the Republican party had made their most powerful figure on Capital Hill.
This is not the party of people like Nelson Rockefeller or Barry Goldwater or Everett Dirksen or Dwight Eisenhower. Eisenhower would not have wanted his party to give power to a man like Tom Delay.
Something dark has happened to the Republican Party. It is part of a systemic transformation of the face of power in America into an evil face. In corporate America, with its astronomical salaries for CEOs""from 20-40 times the guy on the shop floor to an obscene four hundred and something ratio. In politics, Tom Delay. In religion, Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell.
Billy Graham's face is a face of goodness. Pat Robertson's is not. Barry Goldwater was a mensch (I met him briefly). Tom Delay is anything but. And the way corporate America and Congress have collaborated to -as the TIME Magazine story revealed some weeks ago""There is no restraint of self out of reverence for any good.
Not like a healthy animal, a part of primate society. No, like a sick and wounded human being whose twisted spirit has aligned with evil.
This is about evil.
