The Ports: Another "4 Legs Good; 2 Legs Better" moment 4 G. Orwell's Pigs
Edited on Thu Feb-23-06 09:13 PM by arendt
The Ports: Another "4 Legs Good; 2 Legs Better" moment for George Orwell's Pigs (GOP)

Well, the draft horses of the American booboisie have fallen for it again.
Just as the pig Napoleon in Orwell's "Animal Farm" achieves power by
promising to protect the horses from the humans sending them to the
glue factory, Bush has cut another lucrative deal for his family and his
Crime Family with the super-rich sheiks who run the UAE. He announces
this to the booboisie after five years of arresting or hassling any mid-
Easterner in this country who looks vaguely threatening and screaming
Islamic terrorist at the top of his lungs.

And the draft horses vaguely get it. They are restless. They see their
jobs gone to the Chinese glue factory. They don't understand. Napoleon
is out there telling them its really the right thing to do in his usual
earnest I'm-the-protector-of-the-barnyard manner. And the horses are
confused.

God save America. We are depending on a bunch of gullible saps
waking up to their own imminent rendering for bones and hooves.

Its not about the ports. Its about the Alice-in-Wonderland rhetoric that
passes for rational thinking in Washington. Its about the Kool Aid that
is on the menu at every media outlet.

Please, please wake up, horsies. Maybe them damn liberal chickens
who've been screaming about the fox in the hen house are onto something.

Go here and read all the pig propaganda tricks:

1. I'm reading 'Animal Farm' right now
I find myself stopping every few pages and wondering if the * admin is using Orwell as a guide. The similarities are scary.

2. I posed the exact same scenario re Rove and "1984."
If Orwell were alive today Homeland Security would be all over him like a bad suit.
