One shudders to think what unspeakable atrocity Bushco would have to perpetrate to finally get these Neanderthals’ disapproval. So we don’t waste unnecessary time pondering, here’s the answer: there is none. If the wiping out by Bush, Cheney and the rest of their despicable ilk of 655,000+ human beings (in addition to three thousand Americans x two) solely to pursue more power and wealth won’t convince them, then nothing will.
Yes, I know: the most consolidated, tightly-controlled media in U.S. history are a Goebbels wet dream and have done a bang-up job of dishing disinformation for many years now, thereby brainwashing tens of millions of Americans into endorsing the next purely-for-profit war with constant barrages of patriotic pablum, dulling their already dull minds to the effects of real violence by constant desensitization, assigning the ever-needed enemy brown faces and a false and threatening religion while the entire time conditioning their stunted psyches from day one to pursue the holy grail continuously held high by their fascistic masters: the attainment of self-worth through mindless consumerism.
Even so, ask yourself: Don’t you have an inner alarm, a gut feeling, a sudden jet of hot gas shooting painfully up your esophagus (though that could be the pepperoni pizza you ill-advisedly just had) -- an innate something, for crying out loud -- that alerts you when there’s trouble afoot?
Well, of course you do, because, being the intelligent, aware and clear-thinking individual you are -- one who has extremely good taste in columnists, too, I might add (yes, I am shameless) -- you instinctively know when someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes.
You also have known from the beginning that Bush and crew are so obvious they don’t even bother with the shearing first and just toss the whole damn sheep at you (insert own GOP/ovine joke here).
For that staunch thirty-three percent of Bush lovers, however, it never flockin’ registers. They don’t see it, they don’t hear it, they don’t get it and they never will. The disconnect is breathtaking.
