Americans are embarrassed by Bush so they pretend he isn't there
and just don't pay attention to the politics. Many Americans don't want to face the reality of Mr. Bush and all his foibles and who can blame them?

1. A long time
George defender told me recently that they don't know if he is a mad genius or dangerous. They haven't figured it out yet. I said, stay tuned. It should become obvious. Any minute now.

2. For the Bush enablers- they may not know the answer to that question until
it's too late.

4. Ye shall know them by their fruits
Some of the best wisdom in this world; you just have to give people some freedom and see what they do. You can't trust what people say...smooth talkers can be right bastards and shit talkers can be fine people. You have to see what people do, see what fruit they put into this world. And as a rule, if anybody tries to cover your eyes, create secrecy so you can't see their fruit, its because they're fruit is rotten. This is the case with Bush, and I think conservatives should be able to see it by now!

5. More like they decidedly WON'T face reality
In order to guarantee the perpetuity of this present system… in order to assure their current position remains unchallenged… the US elites are seeing to it that America is utterly and completely transformed into a fascist state. They are working all the angles to create a new America in which dissent can be eliminated, the police state has all power over the citizenry, and the war machine can be harnessed in all its fury to expand the reach and riches of the empire.

From a propaganda aspect they are already there. The overwhelming majority of Americans are either on board, too afraid to speak out, or too caught up in what it takes to just survive. They don’t want to hear the truth about what is going on… or they don’t want to take action on behalf of the truth… and they certainly don’t want to place their necks on the line in any sort of way that might make a difference insofar as the Truth is concerned.

This is not the greatest of evil though. As bad as the American New World Order System is… in and of itself… there is another factor, which pushes it “beyond the pale” insofar as evil goes. This factor is the partnership, which American Christianity has formed with the US Elites and their American New World Order System. For you see… as bad as it is to murder, steal, rape, pillage, oppress, and enslave for the sake of your own wealth and power… it is infinitely worse to murder, steal, rape, pillage, oppress, and enslave for the sake of your own wealth and power IN THE NAME OF HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST.

To do so is to blaspheme Him in the worst possible way. To do so is to descend upon a path, which leads straight to the pit of hell. Yet this is exactly what the American Church has done. In doing so they have constructed a theology and a mythology meant to justify their sins before God. In doing so they have made a mockery of His Holy Name. They have turned the name of the Prince of Peace into a bludgeon with, which they beat down their enemies, justify their greed, and give blessing to their violence.

6. Voters vs. non-voters
I've always broken it down into voters and non-voters. People who don't vote probably don't have much real interest in politics; people who DO vote probably do. I mean, I vote because I feel a part of the government here--that's probably how most folks think.
