If you neglect the responsibilities of your job, you lose your bread and butter. If you neglect the care of your home, it falls into ruin. If you neglect the education of your children, they cannot find independence. Isn’t it time you realized the concept of cause and effect also extends OUTSIDE your most personal experiences? Isn’t it time to admit you are a part of everything around you? Now can you see the Big Picture? Now can you see you create what you hate?

If you dismiss the science that explains the complex and delicate relationships between life and the environment, you will be fighting against yourself and your children AND your neighbors AND the rest of us. The deregulation of any industry, whose business stands to threaten our oceans, our wetlands, our property and businesses and the human lives that depend on the health of the environment, can ultimately lead to the disaster we see now in the Gulf of Mexico. You should be able to see this now.

Neglect the environment and you neglect all that depends upon it. Cause and Effect.

I’m sure you’ve said or thought or identified with those who say “I’m not an environmentalist”. But those of us you may say are, we are not so for the sake of simply holding the title. We understand CAUSE and EFFECT. Neglect the trees and we will no longer have clean air to breathe. Science has explained this. YOU will not have it, your children will not have it and your neighbors and the rest of us will not have it. This is why we fight against your tendencies…we want to live and as a result of our actions, you may also live in spite of yourselves. Cause and Effect.

Your desire for wealth at all costs will be the ruin of this planet. Cause and Effect.

You cannot rape the Earth for whatever it yields economically and expect the Earth to continue to support life. You must pay attention to the effects of your actions.

And likewise, you cannot divide nations for your economic interest and expect to live safely for long. You will become a victim of threats. See? You create what you hate.

You cannot deny certain segments of the population the same rights you enjoy and expect them all to be good neighbors to you. They will get very vocal about who they are and demand to be allowed to live as you want to live and you will say they “cram it down your throat”. See? You create what you hate.

You cannot deny children an opportunity for education and expect to live peacefully for very long. Why is this so hard for you to understand? It is simple Cause and Effect. These kids may end up in the streets, perhaps start taking drugs to still their despair and maybe even be compelled by circumstances to rob you. See? You create what you hate.

You cannot divide people and expect them to get along. We will protest in the streets against your divisions. See? You create what you hate.

You can’t force a woman to bear a child she cannot support and then turn around and deny her a fair opportunity to make a living so she can try to support it. She may end up on government assistance. Cause and Effect. See? You create what you hate.

You cannot, for the sake of profits, ship jobs off to the third world where you can exploit cheap labor and expect to have a population at home who can afford to participate in the type economy you desire. We will be in the unemployment line, not buying your investment property, not buying your products, not eating in your restaurants, unable to afford health insurance. See? You create what you hate.

There are very few who are powerful enough to temporarily evade the effects of their actions. Are you one of those people? How much do you need? How many cars? How many homes? Why do you need so much when you expect some to live with nothing, in fact, perish for all you care?

You’ve forgotten everything you learned in grade school. Your greed is eating us all alive. How can we continue to allow this? WHY should we continue to allow this?

BUSH-CHENEY 2004 FUCK YOU
WE’RE CHANGING THE WORLD WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT


On November 2nd, we know you will support the candidate who has your best interests in mind. And by now, you must realize, that only George W. Bush has the audacity to make sure that your fortunes are protected from the so called “little people”.



President Bush, along with a few of his select advisors, has spent countless hours masterminding a plan to keep the working class schmucks struggling in fear. In four short years, his administration has managed to convert millions of would-be Democrats into card carrying Republicans through a clever blend of terrorist threats, fundamentalist religious messages, and something we like to call “trickle down economics”. Hell, we’ve got them so mixed up, they don’t even understand the English language anymore!



It’s really quite simple. Whenever we screw something up, we just say we didn’t! Whenever we risk the lives of our own citizens, we just say we’re supporting the troops! Even though we’ve wrecked the economy, the rich are still better off and who are the rest of them going to complain to? The Government? HA! Look at what we’ve managed to do with the Bill of Rights! The Patriot Act is just the beginning! Hell, when we’re done, you won’t even recognize that liberal extremist rag they refer to as the Constitution!



Remember those $300 checks we sent out to stimulate the economy? We thought that was brilliant! Everybody knows what working people will do with a little spending money!

They basically turned around and gave it back to YOU! Not only have we managed to cut YOUR taxes…we devised a plan to give you back the ones you DID pay! I mean, why should you have to pay taxes when we can get the working class to do it for you?



Listen. You don’t need any more competition. We can’t let the masses rise up and steal our profits.



To be perfectly honest, what President Bush and his advisors have that their candidate doesn’t have, is a vision of the future that is guaranteed to work in your favor. We envision the America of the Working Class as a third world country where the RICH have a kind of power that heretofore has been unimaginable to us. From the safety of our gated communities and walled estates, those who have the stomach for it, will observe the huddled masses, taking whatever they can get. Without the jobs that we are outsourcing every day; without overtime pay or working conditions protected by labor unions, without the strength of their families, which we will continue to tear apart through endless warfare; without health care and higher education, they will be destitute. Totally subservient to US! We can have our way with them! We believe that given another four years, this administration will even have the Liberal Elite eating out of our hands!!



This is our plan:

Deal with the working class by engaging them in war with our enemies overseas.
Kill as many queers, artists, and college professors we can (get the Muslim radicals to fly airplanes into the major universities)
Put all remaining blacks in jail. Crack oughta do it.
Send all the manufacturing jobs to China where we can exploit cheap labor.
Hire the Hispanics to do the service work. (they have “family values” AND the work ethic) We’ll make them citizens and they’ll pay the taxes.
Rape all remaining natural habitats for oil and other necessary minerals.
An SUV in every driveway.


GET OUT THE VOTE. YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY

dead infantile beauty queens..death death death. They have no other reason to live other than to wait for the next death they can cause, observe, lament, avenge, use, relish, deny. The media has given voice to a death cult. And they have more than equal time...and our tax money, they have our tax money to invest in more of their death dreams, if they steal it again or maybe even win it this time due to their new death goddess. I'm sickened.

cross posted from GDP

I, of course, could never vote for a man who isn’t intelligent. After all McCain was 5th from the bottom of his class at the Naval Academy - 894th out of 899. And I suspect that he’s in bed with the predators that have been subverting the US constitution and bankrupting our country in order to pad the pockets of their buddies in the defense and oil industries for the past 8 years. Oddly enough, however, there are a lot of intelligent people, as well as a lot of below average ones, who don’t seem to be able to make any sense out of these things. The mind reels.

Below, in the quotes section is some information I read this morning that a few of the deaf may be able to understand. (But first, my own rant! Ignore it if you’ve heard it all already. These words are largely for those who may need to share them with anyone who either doesn’t have the time to do the research or has been brainwashed by the media.)

Note: I would ask the typical Republican reader of these comments to be certain: I am NOT talking about “the rich”, here. I’m talking about the top 1%. The ones who make their fortune off the backs of ALL of us in the economic strata that constitutes the other 99%; the people who can’t count their money because it’s, ironically, never in their own pockets. That 1% uses all of us, regardless of what political party we are registered to vote with and regardless of our tax bracket. We are the fools they wipe their butts with and it’s time we understood this so we can take our country back.

Please inform those you know that McCain is a dangerous man who is just going to bring us more of the same and worse. I have heard McCain say with his own voice that he promises we will have many more wars… (For those you know who have religious faith, I feel their souls are flirting with hell if they allow an animal like McCain to become the “decider”) Americans desperately need a representative in government from outside this “old-boy” network of neo-cons; a grown-up; an intelligent man of principal like Barak Obama, to unravel the wrongs of the Bush-Cheney administration. In today’s America, Republican doesn’t just mean conservative social values, free market economics and small government where regulation and social programs are concerned. The concept that there even IS a FREE MARKET anymore is totally laughable. The new Republican, or Neo-Con, is a predator; using the tax payer’s money to give no bid contracts to their cronies in private companies in the aerospace, oil and gas and weapons industries. All this money spent “for oil” (we knew that all along), billions “lost”, some paid in bribes, to those with economic interests in these industries at a time when even Texas oil and gas executive, T. Boone Pickens, says we should be building wind farms due to global warming.
(http://www.pickensplan.com/?c=Google&a=Pic... ... )
So there’s not even an excuse for saying Americans need this war to compete in a global economy for fossil fuel. We need to get AWAY from fossil fuel. Period.
But the Neo-Cons and their buddies, devolved as they are, didn’t see that coming and clearly don’t really care!! To the extent that their lives persist, they’re tied up in oil and gas and they’re using OUR money to keep their profits flowing which is instant gratification taken to a pathological extreme. How have we let this happen? It doesn’t help that these corporations own the media and control truth. Please remind your friends and acquaintances, for example, that the major mainstream news outlet, NBC, is owned by GE and GE is a weapons manufacturer for crying out loud!!! You think they are going to retain a bunch of REAL JOURNALISTS who want to report the truth about what the Bush-Cheney administration has been doing with our tax money for the past 8 yrs? That’s a huge conflict of interest where GE’s bottom line is concerned. Look up the holdings of ultra-conservative Rupert Murdoch and examine the list of media outlets he controls. It’s unimaginable that one person could have SO MUCH POWER but it is clear he does.

Pretty impressive; the man must get up VERY early in the morning. He gets up to redefine language so as to control the message. It makes his bank account grow. “Follow the Money” has never been more blatantly relevant and necessary.

The TRUTH is in the blogs on the web where the real news is coming out day after day, exposing these people for who they really are: Predators. Liars. Thieves. Traitors. Fascists. McCain is their new poster child. He’s all they have and they WILL use him. Their miserable lives of lies, greed and excess depend on it.

(the following contains paraphrased quotes from a fellow DU’er)

Breaking this morning are these stories:

**** Condi Rice is in Baghdad going over the details of troop withdrawals per the tentative agreements of yesterday. Since Obama wants this and Bush is now doing it, is McCain going to run around the country and accuse Bush, too, of being a "traitor"? Time to point out that McCain is the only one not playing in reality and has some delusional picture of "victory" in his head that he cannot even define.

**** Second: Kaine interviewed on CNN this morning brought up an incident from yesterday - McCain was asked how many homes he has and he couldn't answer! Kaine quickly tied that with how McCain is concerned with how the rich are doing in this bad economy and has no clue how the rest of the country is hurting.

**** Third: was the bombshell from yesterday: McCain supporter talks about chasing Osama bin Laden to the "gates of hell" and says we need to reinstate the draft and McCain answers: I agree with everything you say. Time to point out the wars McCain is fighting in his mind (Iraq, Iran, Russia, etc.) and say that we now know where he's planning on getting the troops for all of this since our troops are stretched too thin. In other words, McCain is a nut job who, like Bush, governs in a cloud of "delusions" (We can't attack His self-congratulatory "patriotism" but we can question his sanity)

(end quoted material)


Final Note: I heard a mother of a dead 22 yr old US soldier say the other day on the radio: “There is no loss. He knew what he was fighting for. Our freedom is everything.”

What, I ask you, does “freedom” mean exactly to 99% of Americans these days? Be sure of this: A government that controls the media, spies, lies, steals, tortures, uses you children for cannon fodder for their economic gain, ignores the tax payer’s best interests where his or her environment, health care and economy are concerned is not a government concerned about your “freedom”.

They are LYING TO YOU.

The ONLY thing you are “free” to do is TRY to become one of them. I’m not fighting and dying for that. Are you going to allow your children to fight and die for that?
