the 9/11 Hoax has exposed us as a nation of Chumps. |
|
Five whole years of this crap and its getting worse every day. Almost 99% of the chumps fell for it, hook line and torture, the hoax is working splendidly, beyond the wildest fascist dreams.
Its pretty disgusting what has happened to our nation since the Hoax began, and its pretty unbelievable how well the hoax has worked.
Monday when those responsible for not protecting us lay wreaths in honor of the dead they now callously exploit, I will be thinking of the millions of chumps roaming the land like cattle in vast herds, chumps awaiting the next stampede, and the next giant hoax.

That's in someone's sig line and I think that it is an excellent summation of this administration's nature.
Rather than actually address a problem, Rove will attack it with marketing. Fix NOLA? No, it's easy to simply stage photo-ops.
But our public schools are doing their jobs by cranking out credulous, apathetic students who will then live on revolving credit as they seek to feed their consumer addiction.

Corporment
Now HERE is a concept for y'all,
It has struck me that this "non-issue" (really if you think about all the treason this admin is doing, this is a non-issue) is REALLY the DLC re-asserting itself as the controller of ALL things Democrat. I mean it is all a Clinton (+administration) face saving thing that now supposedly ALL good Dems come to the aid of their "fearless leader." Well, it really is sapping our "momentum" on other more important issues, and the corporate controlled DLC KNOWS THAT.
So, I have stayed outside the blogosphere on this one, except for the few phone calls to ABC radio to gnash my teeth on the air, with the likes of Levin (the Zionist) and the new idiot (Jerry) last night taking over Laura Ingram's 8-10 slot in the NY ABC market.
Screw Disney and ABC, they were the next to fall to the nazis after Fox anyway, everyone knew that. I believe that ABC is also stirring the pot to get all good Dems back into the DLC fold, as Hilary was starting to get REALLY antsy at the calls to debate Tasini and with Lamont, and the Screw the DLC push happening as of late, I feel this is the motive for the over-hype of this non-issue.
This all just another Corporate-control of our sense of "what is important."

6. Either hoaxing or insulting.. |
|
Network tv either promotes hoaxy propaganda or brainless, insulting infonews.
The Path to 911 is an example of phony GOPaganda; Katie Couric exemplifies the dumbed down, simplistic, and insulting show that passes for "news."
It's as if the networks don't even try to reach thoughtful, intelligent, and educated people any more. I guess that is what we need the Internet for.
However, I would like to see tv improve. I like different kinds of media and don't always want to read.

9. They just started Friday here in Tenn. against Harold Ford Jr. |
|
100 per cent negative advertising. Tells nothing about what his opponent (Bob Corker) stands for. NOTHING. Just blasts Ford with nothing but half truths and outright lies. This is how they do and intend to keep on winning.
As long as lying is legal it doesn't matter.

11. I think you overestimate the 'intelligent and educated..." |
|
Throw in the "thoughtful" and the context shifts, maybe. But the intelligent and educated are complicit in creating this F*ed up society. They write the propaganda, they write and enact the legislation, all the while knowing exactly what it means and how it will impact the people. Keep people struggling to keep up, to pay the bills and figuring out where the money is coming from to fix their kids' teeth or pay for their medication and there isn't a lot of time left over for abstractions like political philosophy and picking apart the propaganda that has been catapulted upon them.
Sadly, I think this situation has less to do with intelligence or education than it does greed and power.
