Insanity

“I seriously believe we have to start asking questions about his mental health. There’s something wrong. He does not seem to understand his words have real impact…You cannot be a president of the United States who’s wanton in his expression of violence. There’s a lot of people who need care. He might be one of them. If there isn’t something wrong with him, then there’s something wrong with us. This, to me, is a very serious question.”
Once again, Dennis Kucinich is the only Democratic candidate apparently willing to tell it like it is. Our ruler is insane, and he’s willing to drag us into WW3 so a bunch of industrialists can pad their pockets before the crash. The last gasps of an empire dependent on cheap fuel.
But it doesn’t matter. The sheeple will elect another status quo puppet of the elite and the show will continue on, unabated to any significant degree. Perhaps not at the alarming pace of the neocons, but have no doubt. The show will go on.
The “show,” of course, is growth. Economic growth at the cost of life on the planet, and supported by militarism. Here’s one of the headlines from today’s Commercial Appeal:

The reasons there is no popular rebellion is people are too comfortable. When everyone in the realm is fat and happy, adorned in a dizzying assortment of bling bling, the King can pretty much do as he pleases. You can behead Queens, loot neighboring countries and use the Exchequer as your private piggy bank. Just keep the masses fed and the Barons happy, while all other life goes to hell in a hand basket.
Old King George is pretty good at that.
It’s not George W. Bush who controls the government. It’s his economic guru, Al Hubbard and the Harvard Gang.
The Oval One and the Media frenzy are merely distractions, sleight of hand, leger de mind. Pay them no heed.
Keep an eye on the economic front. Read the Wall Street Journal. Pay attention to privatization, free trade, global economic alliances (GATT, NAFTA, ad ilk). This is where the coup de planet is taking place.
The opposite of the status quo is localization and democracy.
Yeah, and as I said, shortly there will be another one in the White House.
The IMF and World Bank are certainly involved, but there still has to be someone in the drivers seat pushing the pedal for the bus to run.
Just so happens this one is more cuckoo than some others we’ve had or probably will have.
…but don’t you know…Kucinich says he saw a U.F.O., he must be crazy….
