Trick or Treat

Governments USA

People wearing bed sheets, Frankenstein masks, triangular black hats, trying to scare people on Halloween. They say “Trick or Treat” hoping to get candy.

When I was young if you didn’t get candy, or sometimes just for the hell of it, some rowdy young people would toilet-paper the yard, empty garbage cans on the porch, and in the countryside they would turn over an outhouse. But, except for some fundamentalists already terrified of sin, really nobody except the very young participants became frightened.

We have master fright-monger story tellers on radio and TV who dream up Frankenstein or Dracula monsters, creatures from the Black Lagoon, giant man-eating sharks, and crazed people with chain saws, spooks, ghosts, and motel owners who stab young ladies while they are in the shower.

Then we have the original fright tellers, who have been menacing humans for centuries, with stories about demons, Satan, Hell, Apocalypses, and what happens to little people who masturbate.

We have a sadistic President, the "Deceiver," who creates terror, invents situations which are sure to create terror, purposely lies in order to instigate wars of terror, and, in order to retain this office, periodically scares the hell out of the public with fake alarms, visions of mushroom clouds, and bacteriological labs with anthrax to wipe out entire cities.

We are at war with the entire world.

We have a President who utters the phrases - “9/ll, ” "al Qaeda," & "Global War on Terror" unceasingly, as a pretext to destroy civil liberties, spy on his own citizens, makes warrantless arrests and detentions, unceasingly claims the right to torture and abuse anyone he deems might be involved in terror, has secret “interrogation” facilities in far-away countries, will watch and listen to private meetings and conversations, and in total acts of arrogance is even now planning acts of terror against Iran and Syria.

All this seems to stem from his self-evaluation of someone who may never be questioned, challenged, or brought to any accounting of his actions. He is above any man-made law, the anointed of the Supreme Creator, the modern Julius Caesar.

Even worse is the fact that the entire frothy mouthed rapid, lunatic frindge element of the Republican party turns a blind eye to his depredations and vicious lies. They seem caught in a kind of Jello existence, in which they shake and wriggle in satisfaction at not doing the slightest act of evaluation or criticism.

Anything, so far, goes.

We wonder if even public murder of a citizen would go unchallenged from the vast claims that he, or she, instigated terrorism. We know a number of instances where this has occurred, and citizens were murdered by guardians of public order, simply because they “acted suspicious.”

This President claims the right to send a Hellfire missile to any country in the world, against anyone he labels “terrorist.” In the process he does not seem to notice that for every “terrorist” he kills, he also created a dozen or a hundred people aching for understandable vengeance. He does not seem to understand that dirty tricks do not enhance the soiled reputation of the United States.

His unitary privileges grandly overlook any diplomacy, any debate, any criticism, any legalities, and any consultation of the Constitution. The “diplomats” like John Bolton, whom he appoints by stealth, are shameful irascible creatures that should never represent any country or any organization other than the KKK or Dominionists.

At present he is hocking our country under the most false and reprehensible illusion. We know that Bush is not really frightened of terrorists. In the first place they can’t get within striking distance of Bush. We know that Bush uses terror as a front to retain his office. We also know that Bush will consort with anyone with large amounts of money, and large amounts of oil. And, he takes every opportunity to make his corporate buddies richer than rich. Money rules the day, not terrorism.

Bush kept replaying the Osama record until the grooves wore out. Bush is a far-greater terrorist than Osama bin Laden could ever be - the man is directly responsible for the death of one human being every five minutes. His actions are is reprehensible, treasonable, unexcusable. He should be impeached immediately.

"Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh." George W. Bush

  • Yes, we have a President who exploits every means possible to continue his felonious ways. His cronies, llike Rudy Giuliani, keep mouthing 9/11 with every breath, and our V.P. Cheney keeps visions of mushroom clouds floating in the air. We have a President who is still trying to start WWIII with Iran. And what is it all for? For neocon world domination, for control of oil, for the establishment of world wide military bases, for the satisfaction of narcisstic egos and especially for profit. We are buying oil with blood of both our soldiers and that of Iraqis (men, women and children). We are "nation building" a colonial nation subservient to Bush neocons, we are destroying for the benefit of corrupt corporations. War is BIG business, very profitable for a select few industrialists, and they intend to keep the flow of dollars into their bank accounts. They do not mind shedding blood, as long as it is not a drop of their own. They are cowardly thugs with the mask of religion and patriotism over their smirking faces.

    • And very soon these cowardly thugs, these vermin, these murdering parasites, will run out of mula, money, cold hard cash.

      By Christmastime this year, the Euro will be worth $1.50, a barrel of oil will be worth $100 and an ounce of gold will be worth $900.

      More importantly, the US treasury will be out of nearly $300 billion in foreign holdings, as China ’diversifies’ its foreign holdings to more solid currencies such as the euro and the yen.
      All of these factors will drive the US dollar deeper into an abyss that it may never recover from.

      What both the mass media and the anti-war movement fail to realize is this truth: Without money you cannot maintain this grossly expensive military machine that the US has been using to coerce the world to do its bidding.

      As more and more of the world drops the US dollar as their preferred foreign currency, its reign as global fiat currency will end. Virtually all of the world’s main oil exporters, except Canada and Saudi Arabia, have already abandoned the US dollar for the euro or the yen as their preferred currency for all oil transactions.

      End game is here, and so is end of the neocon’s nightmare empire.

      And only one political leader running for President, Ron Paul, understands this.
      All the others, Hillary, Giuliani, Obama, Romney, Dufus, Sleepy and Grumpy, don’t have a single clue as to how and why the real world works.

      The long gravy train that the US federal government has been riding on and feeding its biggest backers with, the banks and the military industrial complex, is about to come to an abrupt stop.

      Derailment up ahead.
