THE HYPOCRITES OF GREED

RepubliCons say that:

1) U.S. sovereignty is at stake because of our participation in the UN, but are okay with foreign money coming into their campaign coffers (via the Chamber of Commerce) that influence American elections.

2) Evolution does not exist, and yet they are ok with social Darwinism (survival of the fittest), where the wealthy elite have all the influence and wealth because they deserve it for being smarter than all the peasant suckers.

(Lets see: is it: "We the People", or. . . something else?)

In other words they (allegedly) have principles. . .

except when money is involved.

THE UNITED CORPORATIONS OF AMERICA

A major event in American history that does not appear in any of the school textbooks is the plot to overthrow the U.S. government in the 1930s by the Industrial Elite. We know about this scheme thanks to a high-ranking military whistle-blower: Marine Corps Maj.-Gen. Smedley Butler.

In 1933, Butler was approached by men representing a clique of multi-millionaire industrialists and bankers (calling themselves the American Liberty League) who wanted to have U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt forcefully ousted from power. They saw his “New Deal” policies as the start of a communist take-over that threatened their interests.

In a 1936 letter to Franklin D. Roosevelt, William Dodd, the U.S. Ambassador to Germany said:

"A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist state to supplant our democratic government and is working closely with the fascist regime in Germany and Italy...A prominent executive of one of the largest corporations, told me point blank that he would be ready to take definite action to bring fascism into America if President Roosevelt continued his progressive policies."

The Industrial Elite have since realized that they can get their way by not attempting to take over the government via military coup, but by influencing the common class to vote their way. Their billion dollar corporate funded think-tanks came up with the use of propaganda in the form of radio, news, and print media (Con-Air) that could be used to indoctrinate the uneducated and the unethical.

They realized that they could influence minds by reframing the debate, as well as simply not being truthful (that is because they believe that the ends justify the means, meaning that it is okay to not tell the truth as long as it is for what they believe to be a good purpose). For instance, Bush's "Clear Skies Act" actually helped the Industrial Elite pollute the skies!

They learned how to merge their own greedy selfish interests with those of the "conservatives." What most people do not know is that this link between these two worlds is mostly manufactured.
Do you think the Industrial Elite who control the Republican party care about if something like "In God We Trust" is printed on federal property or not? They might say that they do but they would be lying. What they do not want the conservatives to know is that Jesus actually spoke out against people like them.

Part of the indoctrination technique is to get the people "ginned up" (their actual words) against so-called "big government." The same government that regulates and taxes the Industrial Elite and prevents them from engaging in illegal and unethical activities.

The Industrial Elite realized that in order to win elections they need to influence what Rush Limbaugh calls "the country class." (i.e. the good intentioned but uneducated "folk") And it is these red-state people that are being used for their purposes.

The country class has been programmed to vote for:
1) tax cuts (so that the Industrial Elite can make their money in tax breaks rather than in a competitive and regulated free market.)
2) Industry deregulation (that maximizes profits at the expense of public safety and the environment.)
2) Fight and give their lives in wars for natural resources (so that companies like Halliburton are able to profit).

To the Industrial Elite who control the Republican party, you are not a person, you are just another one of their commodities.
Ever see the movie the Matrix? guess who the human batteries are? The same ones who buy the illusion that is projected by Con-Air.

It is time for people to come to the painful realization that they have been used. They have been bamboozled, they have been fooled. Its time for people to WAAAAAAKE UP!

And Healthcare For All!

The first stages of the new Healthcare reform law went into effect yesterday.

Here is what RepubliCons are saying about Healthcare reform:

1) Illegal immigrants will be covered
2) Medicare benefits will be slashed
3) Government will decide what care people get.
4) Benefits to military families and retirees(tricare) will be cut.
5) It will fund abortions.
6) Requires doctors to implant micro chips into patients.

According to the NON PARTISAN fact check site FACTCHECK.ORG, none of this is true!
Except for the micro chip part. Each micro chip will contain the numbers 666 and will be required for all buying and selling. And if you are a Christian, you will be taken away to a concentration camp if you refuse to receive the micro chip of the Beast. No wait...just kidding.

Also, RepubliCons say that the government insurance option will put the government "between you and your doctor" and set up "death panels," but are perfectly fine with corporate employees coming between you and your doctor, and corporate death panels -that unlike the government plan, actually DO exist! (If you are costing the corporate insurance companies too much money they can decide to find a way to drop you from coverage.)

RepubliCons believe that healthcare reform is socialist. In that case our fire and police departments are socialist. Medicaid, medicare, VA medical care is socialist. By the way: these are all programs THAT WORK! The fact is that when it comes to public safety PEOPLE must come before PROFIT!

RepubliCons say that people are just too lazy to get health insurance on their own. However, since Reaganonmics took over, the HARD WORKING middle class has seen their average earnings drop, making it harder to make ends meet. The problem is that even if you can afford the premiums of private insurance, it still wont mean that you wont go bankrupt with all of the co-pays!

It is private insurance motive to MAKE MONEY period! If they can make more money by screwing you THEY WILL! And thanks to their bribed RepubliCon politicians in their corner, they can even get away with it.

RepubliCons keep saying that "America has the best medical care in the world" even though according to the World Health Organization, America is actually ranked number 37!!! -right below Costa Rica. (France was #1 by the way).
What these nincompoops are not telling you is that America has the best healthcare technology, NOT the best healthcare system. They are trying to merge the two in order to confuse people and satisfy their corporate sponsors. DONT BE FOOLED!

The only significant complaint that might be true is that the new healthcare reform bill will not be budget neutral. Meaning that instead of saving money it might actually end up costing money. But I say this to the critics: Wouldn't it better for our money to go into programs that actually help people live better lives and not go bankrupt and die painful deaths, rather than for unnecessary wars in Iraq, corporate welfare, pork barrel spending, and unnecessary tax cuts for the ultra wealthy elite?

In other words: if you tea party clowns and RepubliCons really are for "fiscal responsibility," then lets see some first; otherwise you just look like hypocrites.

The Welfare Queen Does Not Exist!

RepubliCons say that "socialist" liberals want to take your hard-earned money and give it away to lazy bums who do not derserve it (even though this idea really only applies to the wealthy elite who have been under taxed since Reagan). One of the propaganda campaigns that they came up with the myth of the so-called "welfare queen." The only problem with this is that: she does not exist!

Yes, it is true that there are some criminals out there who are always trying to find a way to cheat in life, but what is the ratio of criminals to law-abiding people? Its pretty darn low. Should we let a few bad apples spoil the entire orchard? That doesn't seem very wise.

Another thing to keep in mind about public assistance programs is that they do not last forever, and despite what people like Rush Limbaugh seem to believe, you can not buy beer and drugs with foodstamps. Its also just barely enough to keep you alive. In other words: there are no luxury dinners at the Four-Seasons. It is mostly MSG-laced Ramen and instant kraft macaroni and cheese.

You know who else benefited from public assistance payments when he was in a tough situation in his younger days? A man named Rush Limbaugh. It's true (he admitted it on his show), and we lefties looove to laugh about it.

Another myth about the left is that we want lazy good-for-nothings to benefit from other peoples hard work when the Democratic party has always been about "fairness" to the HARD WORKING middle-class who deserve to benefit from the American system in return for their contributions to society.

As for the lowly dysfunctional chronically poor, they have their soup kitchens and shelters. I think Jesus would be happy that we do not believe that they should be left to rot in the gutters.

Just because we believe that society should be a just and moral environment does not make us commies...it just makes us the good guys.

WALL STREET REFORM HAS PASSED!

Wallstreet reform has passed!
It is the most sweeping overhaul of the financial system since the New Deal! The law immediately gives regulators stronger powers to break up financial companies that have grown too big.

One of the reason we got into this financial mess to begin with was because the Glass-Steagall act of 1933, that prevented some of the derivative speculation wagering that was going on, was repealed by Republicans in 1999! Until Glass-Steagall is fully reinstated there still could continue to be problems. (The next time you hear a RepubliCon blaming the current economic meltdown on liberal mortgage hand-out programs be sure to remind them of deregulation.)

The RepubliCons are already threatening to repeal it if they get more of them elected in November. Unwilling to learn from the mistakes of history, they apparently want to condemn America to another recession just so that their campaign contribution buddies can make more money off of what they believe to be is the American Dream.

Here is what the edited classroom textbooks will not tell you:

It was RepubliCon inspired gluttony and "laissez-faire" deregulation (of the Harding, Coolidge, Hoover administrations) that led to the Great Depression

If it was not for Obama's bailout spending that supported the pillars of the economy, we would have suffered another Depression. Of course the RepubliCons were against the bailout (even though Bush started the bailout payments). That is because -in the words of Rush Limbaugh: they "want him to fail."

At least now it will be a little harder for the corporations to do things like make a buck at the expense of peoples financial lives and the economy.

THE EVIL DEATH TAX!!!

The RepubliCons were successfully able to repeal a tax on money on un-earned income called the "estate tax". That is money that is received in an inheritance. Money that could be used to do things like help fund schools, repair infrastructure, and pay down the national debt, etc. etc.

RepubliCons say that they are against high taxes because they are being used to give "entitlement" handouts to those who do not deserve it. And yet...they are perfectly fine with people receiving money when they inherit it, even though they have done nothing to earn it! So in other words: Only their wealthy benefactors are allowed to receive money that they do not earn.

How were they so successful in repealing the estate tax?...By "reframing" the debate. Their billion dollar corporate-funded think-tanks came up with the term "death tax." To the laymen, this meant that the big bad government was going to tax you for dying. The Ignorants were outraged, and it was repealed.

Our elected representives must be pressurred to bring this source of revenue back so that we can fund our economic comeback and pay down the debt that we have incured from Bush's war and RepubliCon deregulation. We must take a page from the RepubliCon machine and reframe the term to something more along the lines of the "un-earned inheritance income tax."

TEXAS CONSERVATIVES ALTER HISTORY

The Texas School Board of Education, an organization that creates the content of textbooks used in our public schools, have successfully altered history by making changes to the curriculum without consulting historians or scholarly experts.

These new changes include (among many other things):
The reduction of the importance of the American civil rights movement.
The reduction of the role of Thomas Jefferson -since he is the one who coined the term "seperation of church and state." (which is a confirmation of the meaning of the 1st Amendment of the Constitution.)
They instead emphasized the role of the European Judeo-Christian John Calvin, a 16th century relic of the Dark Ages who had never even been to America.

They of course also down-played the influence of the Enlightenment and the Age of Reason on our Founding Fathers.

So my question is this: if you are against enlightenment, reason, science, scholarly experts, truth, wouldn't that mean that you are pro ignorance?
Or is it just pro stupid?
