Now It's On to Iran and Let's Win There!

We are rapidly approaching a karmic bitch slap, kiddies.

Don't think 'cause we have iPhones and drive Navigators and run our air conditioners 'round the clock that we're immune from history's all-powerful undertow. We are not. We will join the parade of nations who succumbed to the intoxicating effects of their own poetry, who allowed their loins to trump their minds, who permitted hubris and greed to relentlessly infect its population, and their collective egos to swell until the outer skin blistered and popped and oozed life itself, puddling onto the sooty ground that was once home.

We are like them, make no mistake. And if we don't address what is happening right now in a specific oval shaped office in a specific nation's capitol, then it will be over and we will be standing around like idiots after a storm and we will look at all the other victims and they at us and we will still be unable to comprehend what has happened anymore than a steer does before it is stunned with a short swift blow to the head. And if you think this is just another liberal blog shouting anti-authoritarian bullshit, you'd be wrong. Because good things go bad all the time. Sweet, pure babies are born and grow into monsters. Republics are hewn by gritty, passionate pioneers of freedom only to have those founders ousted and the nation forcibly occupied and run by fat-assed, profiteering chicken hawks.

Must we wait for the Neo-Cons' Lee Atwater moment, the deathbed retraction of all their unfair, unethical, inhuman behavior they've engaged in? Ain't gonna happen, chums. Think of what America was and what it has become. And once you grasp that then look only a little farther ahead to what will be. You don't need a pie chart or a power point presentation. All the work's been done and done and it is in-fucking-fallible. To see the future one need only look to the past. Look at BushCo and his Neo-Con stormtroopers: the more intense their denials, the more incendiary their threats, the more their eyes pop and their veins swell, the closer they are to their ideological orgasm: Fascism. We either heed the signs and choke it off or run before you get drenched. Constitution of the United States: prepare for the money shot!

1. Having once ...

been close to soemthing middle-class in deed if not in finances, and being now in poverty to the point hat net worth is about how many frozen pizzas might be in my freezer at any given time, I don't really know what real relevance an Iphone has or what a Navigator is.

As I struggle not to fall of the Net, and wonder who it is that posts here in most often from comfortable little Matrix pods. Those folks must be really enjoying being alive today and stable, even while they console themselves by performing some sort of sadanna by entertaining anything factual and important on a socio-economic level.

Air conditioning is very important to many people in hot climates or as a way to conduct business without being covered in sweat and overcome by heat to the point where you need a siesta. Hos is this Karma when it is simply a matter of response to environment in relation to a way of life?

I am not a kiddie, but I can manage to see that the enemy we face is simply, directly, us. Either you poetic kiddies who love to sling out hyperbolic prose from your comfortable, well-fed, media-drenched, hives within the matrix really get what's going on to the point where you start to put your lives where your mouthes are and do something to stave the beast that makes your bed, are we are all totally fucked, period, exclamation point.

So, you can stand on any verbal pulpit that you want and spew great epitaphs to the end of life as we know it, or you can look around you and see the fact that most of what you are doing, getting, and working for, is the very monster you are mooning and whipping your balls out at. You can stop it by making such brave and radical changes in your own life that others follow you by your actions and not by your words alone.

If I had a people I would tell them to get OUT OF THE BEAST NOW WHILE YOU CAN with full force and hope that that kind of retort would be the best way to stop the debacle we are seeing in its tracks.

Words have the ability to inform and incite, but without actions, they are, in a media-soaked world, as good as monopoly money, just like the American dollar is hoping to be.
