3. When is this going to be obvious?

Bush is nothing but a product and a titular head. He is a brand-name and a product that works like a jackpot in manipulation. He sells both for the hate and the, shudder, love.

If you want to understand this better, you just have to start thinking like the enemy. It is not hard if you have some imagination and insight. Though you might not like it, all you have to do is to survey the field, the sciene, the technological tools, and ask yourself what it might take to keep 6.5 billion people subjugated and in, or ready for, total slavery, lest they over-flow with truth, and rise-up against you and your kind.

It is an easy game to play, once you start. For many, good, law-abiding, conscientious people, it takes a small leap of faith and the ability to role play safely for a short time.

You just ask yourself a few questions after you look around carefully with open eyes and an open mind. What if I were born a privileged member of the Ruling Class schooled in the shadows of Machiavelli? What if my linage and my whole life depended on preserving, defending, and perpetuating a class of people who have captured control and direction of a large part of the entire planet's resources, knowledge, and creativity? Now, wouldn't that be a goal worth supporting, especially if staying in that strata of the chaste system and situating your progeny firmly within it's maternal, abundant womb, where the reasonable and practical reason d' attire? Of course you would! That's what makes today's World go round and we pawns are, largely, managing to play our serfdom part in the drama of the movers and the shakers. We were trained to do that and most of what we call "entertainment" and "information" is carefully designed to keep us firmly planted in that abstract, (but seemingly real) aspect of the Matrix woven so subtly and constantly around us.

You probably know that no everyone is living in total subjugation to the tide of control that sweeps over this Nation and moves out to conquer the globe in such a way that Alexander, Great Brittan, and the third Reich would most certainly be jealous of, as far as Imperialistic paradigms are concerned.

Let us all pause to remember that we, The People, are, in our manufactured, manipulated, law-abiding, survival-oriented, day-to-day lives, are the ones who feed the very Beast that not only has more than profits to gain from our subservient complacency -- no there is far more at stake in this very vital and long-reaching game now -- it has total conquest and its own utopia, or Heaven on Earth, in mind. We are just servants, peasants, numbers, and statistics in their game. The only problem is, not only do they create, design, and mutate the game was we go along, we are far too easy a mark in respect to our numbers! We are proving to be, to our own eventual dismay and eventual disillusionment, far too willing to be led to an evolutionary slaughter that no true species would go to willingly on the organismic level of things. We don't seem to fight, tooth and claw, these days. We just lay back, change the channel, buy the product, take the bosses' crap, ignore that every workman is WORTH his wages, and then revel in hoping for the best or succumbing to horrible depression and taking Big Brother's Soma bills to kill the rightful, Existential pain we are feeling -- as if it is only our own, personal, private sickness and disease were are feeling and suffering through.
