AT THE RISK OF REDUNDANCY............
By tedbohne
We have difficult choices to make that will effect the human race perhaps centuries to come. One of them is extinction. What's it gonna be folks?
::::::::
The very fabric of a hope that this country might someday evolve to a model society for others in the world to emulate is disintegrating by the hour. It is being destroyed in the same way that past civilizations, and nations have entered history. By the very same methods that Rome fell.
There are more words written, blogs opened, and lightweight activities with no known effication growing exponentially in the US seemingly daily. New voices added to old ones serving up the same data. No change, whatsoever.
We have a totally crippled form of ‘government’ that has, in recent times’ done absolutely nothing for the people of the US, and is clearly in chaos. None the less, well meaning people continue to implore Americans to write to their congressmen and senators as if they actually expected these overpaid under worked halfwits would actually listen to them.
The US has lost any respect the other nations of the world may or may not have once had through clandestine and overt wars of murder rape and plunder such as the catastrophe of our “heroes” in the Middle East.
Then you have “antiwar” movements such as “Code Pink,” and “Velvet revolution” which sound like names for whore houses rather than serious efforts to stop the worst example of “government” certainly in this country’s history, and it’s had quite a few bums, usually Republicans.
Sit ins, camp ins, photo op arrests, and other form of historically failed nonsense still being used with ongoing frequency despite the inescapable fact they have accomplished absolutely nothing.
Media of all sorts in the US is now owned by the “Corporate Government.” Yet, there is this nauseating air of “patriotism” about this war, despite it's inescapable criminal nature, and how we must prevail to bring “democracy” to a nation that never presented the US with any threat, and will NEVER be an example of democracy just has the US has failed to do. Flags being flown, all sorts of military insignia and such being worn by veterans, and all in support of our “children or kids” which didn’t have the sense to remain clear of the enlistment office.
Says something about the quality of “education” being foisted on the youth of this country.
People still don’t seem to understand that FOUR elections have been queered by the Republican party whilst the democrats stood by and watched. Nothing changed except for the worse.
These so called “lawmakers” have found every possible way to do nothing about the Bush Family et al whilst waiting in earnest for elections they knew and know to be rotten to the core.
Yet American’s sleep on. Nothing gets done and on go Bush and Cheney in a world that is now rife with terrorism, except, as usual in the US. That fact should be a glaring clue to where the terrorism is originating! There are people who are still stupid enough, uninformed enough to believe Osama Bin Laden masterminded the 911 events when in actuality, there is more than enough factual data to demonstrate US “Shadow Government” as the cause. Not unlike Ollie’s Follies in Nicaragua, and other such terrorist activities worldwide for well over a century.
How many know that the US Central Intelligence Agency traded weapons and money for cocaine to sell in American Cities to finance their Black Operations? What about the CIA’s selling of Heroin in the US to Americans to do the same then. Think it’s crap? Look it up. Don’t go to any damned preacher for help either, or write some fat assed official, do it yourself.
Why hasn’t there been a complete and independent investigation into the events of September 11th, of 2001. All we have is a congressional circle-jerk that was clearly fouled by the George and his Dick, Cheney. The “report” that came out of that well paid for waste of time isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on. That is, it is a collection of lies.
The same is true for TWA flight 800. Conspiracy theories you say? Wake up and smell the coffee. How many times to you have to be hit by a car before you realize that it might be best to get hell out of the way? Or drive up to a stop sign and say, “yes, it’s a red octagonal sign with big white letters S…….T…….O……..P on it, but it’s not a stop sign.
How long does this anencephalic behavior continue? To the NEXT “election?” Used to be that you could tell the difference between the two political parties. Republicans were composed of Rich sonsofbitches, and Democrats were the ones that tried to make a better life for the average Joe in America.
Now they are virtually indistinguishable. Liars, thieves, cowards, mass murderers, sadists, and perverts. From Pelosi right through George W. Bush. Every breath they take, they murder some part of the world.
When will America wake up to the fact that without real live ACTION of perhaps the violent kind, will this nation every be a model of anything other than a terrorist nation, a completely FAILED state. How long will Americans wait, gripe, talk, and sit on their collective ass.
How long will you have these light weights roaming the countryside trying to find self worth like the Code Pink twink? She is no more the face on the American antiwar movement than I am. As far as her consideration of running against Pelosi if Nancy doesn’t meet her ultimatum by July 23, I busted a gut laughing at the unmitigated audacity of this self enthralled mope!! Perhaps a collection for some needed psychotherapy would be in order.
If America is to survive to become what the framers hoped for, there’s much to be done beginning with the REMOVAL of George Walker Bush and his crew of limp-wristed thieves by any and all means possible.
Then the Constitution needs to be tweaked in such a way as to make horrors like these impossible. That would mean closing countless loopholes, and making the law fair and equitable for EVERYONE, not just the rich.
Justice must no longer exist as a commodity only for those who can afford it. Medical Care must be FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
But then the people must take some measure of responsibility for their own health by not smoking, not overeating, and getting some real exercise, you know, like walking?, and I don’t mean back and forth to the fridge for another beer either.
People have to think about having children and the effect of each child on this planet throughout the child’s life in terms of how much garbage and pollution will each produce? How many Barrels of oil will each use? How many trees will be sacrificed for all of each one’s paper and wood needs? How much steel and other resources? How much clean water will each use?
These are but a few questions to be considered by people considering RESPONSIBLE parenting, and if you’re planning a career, for crissake, don’t have kids until you can raise them correctly. Further, please PLEASE, don’t raise them with maniacal ideologies like nationalism or religion!, or worse, some combination of these two!
Clearly even if we can get rid of the Bush bastards and Cheney garbage in this country there is still terratons of work to be done to hopefully, someday in the distant future, realize the kind of world that everyone can share equally in, and take damn good care of. The other alternative is extinction. For the very same reason other species did. Humans just couldn’t adapt.
