So Much For Transparency In Govt

There is only one solution ....

Physically throw all the filthy whores out of congress and establish a temporary government.

Let the 50 states come together at a Constitutional Convention ......... for 3 months or 3 years ....... however long it takes to hammer out the changes .....

Its the only way ........ anybody who still believes in this "two-party" system is a fool ......

When the election is over, it will be "meet the new boss .... same as the old boss."

Doomed

While eating lunch today at a local family owned restaurant I watched a television sitting behind the bar which was physically close to my booth.

I watched Obama talk for 20 minutes and say absolutely nothing.

He should be given an award as a lawyer's lawyer.

McCain or Obama ....... we're doomed.

@Klytus

The american people are fools in a trance who care only about themselves but the time will come (as in 1933) when they will be worried about surviving ........ they will drop to their knees as they realize what has come upon them .......... "Its The End Of The World As We Know It And I Feel Fine" ....

Change cannot come from people who are deluded by the words of a small class of tricksters and jesters called politicians who all work for the same corporate masters.

The politicians are their running dog lackeys and the public thinks "reality tv" is real.

Total Hypocrisy

Let's see Russia planning to put missiles in central or south america and see how we respond.

In our arrogance, we have the Monroe doctrine which excludes "interference" literally within our hemisphere.

It is time for Putin to introduce the Putin Doctrine which allows no interference in europe or asia.

We don't have to look far to see our leaders are either mentally-ill or amoral self-serving cynics of the worse sort.

@-- adnoto

It turned out that the Italians were "lovers" ....... not fighters.

Learning from both the fascists and the communists who perpetrated atrocities on the Italian people in those days, the Italian people learned to mistrust the govt (something the American people need to do) and decided that the only safe govt was one which did not have enough power or authority to fuck over there lives.

When the govt starts taking itself too seriously, they elect a prostitute to their parliament.

Related to this article is the fact that literally every week Hitler found a new enemy for the german people to be afraid of ......... Americans are weak in self-awareness ......... fear is the primal motivating force to control the masses ...... and these worthless bags of shit from hell know that.

Apparently, that is what its going to take to wake the americans out of their trance and do something .........if that is what it takes, the sooner the better.

Americans threw over 250 congressmen out in the elections of 1933.

Maybe, when they're standing in food lines, they'll become motivated to do something.

I'm Not Just Talking About Clinton

Talk is cheap .......... Pelosi and Reid surely know that ..... all politicians do .....

Somebody do something for a change.

Bush Could Have Done Nothing .....

Without the cooperation of the Congress ....... will all of them be leaving too ...... ??????

In 1933, the public "fired" more than 250 congressmen ....... we need another purge .....

As A Pharmacist, I'd Like To Say ....

I think pharmacy is even worse ........ no control over our work environment, insurance companies or the fact any fool can ask to speak to us on a phone that rings continuouly all day.

Plus the fact, that everybody is overmedicated and the crazies and the addicts make you feel like a social worker and a cop.

Ha, Ha, Funny As Hell ....

I was teargassed and beaten twice in two separate protests in Washington, DC in the late 60's ...... including the "May Day" protest where there was supposedly over 1 million people present .......

Nixon would always leave DC during such protests, he was so paranoid he thought the protesters were coming to get him.

Always a bunch of long-haired "hippie" FBI undercover agents around creating controversial events (and guess what, a camera just always happened to be there) to try and discredit the marchers ...

In one march, a man with an SDS armband was directing an "illegal" march off Penn ave toward DuPont circle ...... I decided to go ....

It was a setup ..... as we approached DuPont Circle, a Trailways bus emerged from a hidden position in an alley, isolating and "cutting-off" approximately 200 of the "leaders" from the crowd behind them ...... then police on scooters drove this small contingent like cattle toward Dupont Circle where DC's finest were waiting in riot gear with clubs to beat them on their heads and teargas them ....

No doubt the SDS "hippie" was undercover FBI .....

Not a damn thing's changed .....

Just be a good little consumer and all will be fine ........ watch your movies, buy your ipods, watch your television, buy all your crap ....

But challenge the status quo and you'll find out the US is no different than Russia or China .........

As the Japanese say, "The nail that sticks up gets hammered down."

I was hoping the draft would be re-instituted perhaps serving as a stimulus for young people to get politically involved ....

This crap is nothing new ....

You just don't get it .....
