I’m sure there were copious snippets one could run with to make the same point I will make regarding hypocrisy, a lack of any self respect, and the easily subdued conscience of many of our citizens when it comes to cheering on their supposed ‘side.’ or team color, or chipped slogan, or stance on a big issue, or whatever it is that acts as some sort of bond of solidarity for the monstrous core of these political machines, (excluding a few of the machines unwilling or irascible cogs, or those that simply have no other option but to run as an ’R thing’ or ‘D thing.’
Ok: Mr.. Obama persuasively, and mellifluously speaks a fiery populist talk about sticking it to the man, understanding the concerns of the everyday worker, how he will protect us under the federal umbrella from the rapacity of the usual villains who often times are the same scum who float his or other politicians of whatever stripe….campaign. Obama get’s to the part of his speech were he talks about eliminating the extremely egregious and industry sponsored and written legislation regarding ‘bankruptcy reform.’ Of course he did not mention it was tailored written to help banks and others that stood to gain by eliminating the possibility of bankruptcy, he didn’t even mention the fact that most bankruptcies in the states are the consequence of insurmountable medical bills for the poorly or simply not insured as opposed to the repeated an nauseum moral finger wagging mendacious tripe from our pious brothers and sisters on Capital Hill about how consumers are reckless and irresponsible with credit, and how they should not have morally corrupting escape hatches. Never mind that the global economy is…to a scary extent PREDICATED on Americans buying the world’s shit on incomes that have not come close to keeping with inflation since the 1970s! My point here, the entire crowd erupts into applause (of course, that’s the whole point….) and the camera lingers on Mr.. D.C silver tongued harlot Biden who is also clapping with pepperered chagrin at these awful banks and their usury and their record profits and their choking grip on the possibility of escaping the asphyxiating grief of consumer debt. This is the same motherfucker who was royally behind this legislation, who pushed it into place knowing very well who it would hurt and who it would help, the man who’s senator of Delaware, queen state of corporate welfare. How does everyone clap themselves into a dizzy froth knowing that Obama picked this asshole for all the reasons I won’t mention here (shortly, he’s a dependable shill for the usual manipulators of foreign/domestic policy, and a corrupted cipher with that patina of old concerned/marginally institutional-liberal around his shiny cheeks, that Obama needed to flash his credentials as the usual cipher ready to do the elites bidding, and no godamn boat rocker. How could they all clap so hard? God, I wish I could believe in Mr.. Obama’s progressive instincts and believe that scary stuff coming out of his mouth, the parroting of the same old positions with a slight Democratic twitch is just electoral speak to ensure his electability..but…. I don’t.
Mrs.. Palin will not stand up to ’big government’ or more importantly the rulers of big government, the hierarchies of the uber-rich, the majority of big industries and company’s that move politicians around the their maze of rat feces under the cover of ‘free speech,’ vulgarly being equated as money, and therefore allowing them to pay off our spurious representatives. Never mind pork for the people either. So. Palin starts waxing ebulliently about fighting big oil, and special interests and all of that. Yes, to a degree it’s true, but I hardly think she’s remotely a champion of protecting citizens over rapacious companies, dealing with black gold or otherwise, perhaps she has and will at the most curb some of the more rapacious actions of such companies, prevent a bit of the excessive looting of the public coffers, contamination of our lands. Again, big rolling thunder applause as she talks about standing up for folks against big oil from an assortment of people who without a doubt most likely voted or supported the current viscous dumb-bell in office and his administration who you couldn’t even caricature more as being up the sphincter of the oil/energy industry. Who if they could would only fall short of crippling children to fatten the golden parachutes of these companies CEOS, and lucky stock holders, et cetera. A standing ovation…all of a sudden, they the people are also sick of BIG OIL, they will cheer on the politician who defend them against big oil and government boondogglery in general. What? How their passive acceptance or cheering of a party that has been not only the slave but the former rulers and handmaidens of big oil, suddenly find themselves cheering Miss fight the power Pallin as she makes some noise about fighting big oil is absurd and disturbing, but yes predictable.
What to do citizens?
