Home > a "Nation of Sheep" buys new Bush image
Mussolini called the Untied States "A neation of sheep". Well, even a broken clock is right twice a day!
"If God had wanted them sheered he would not have made them sheep"....Calvera, the bandit, in "The Magnificent Seven"
**********************************
It’s a given now that a good solid segment of the American public are blind,ignorant,docile and willing sheep going to their slaughter wearing wide and plastic smiles. To be fair, of course, OTHER countries no doubt share our identical malady to a greater or lesser extent.
After months of bad news plaguing George Bush, the tide at last has changed...at least so far as the puppeteers in control at the White House are concerned.
The North Korean crisis will certainly bring out the war dogs who cleave to the Bush hawks. That will elevate the sagging polls for sure.
Last night on the CBS news they did a "happy Iraq" piece focused on the worst military band I’ve ever heard! I seriously doubt THAT will pump up poll numbers, but who knows? (the narrator actually said: "Under Saddam even a missed not by a musician could mean serious consequences"!)
There have been rumors which we’ve all heard, that Bush has been messing around with some woman (Rice?), and that Laura is furious and has moved into a Washington hotel. Well, Larry King is doing a show soon featuring George and Laura together, ostensibly to answer questions while Larry drools and doles out platitudes like some obsessed movie star fan. THAT should pump up the Bush image and bring back some of the middle level idiots who strayed temporarily from the flock.
The big push right now by the extremist wing of our Republican Congress is to chase down and recapture the religious Right by bringing up a flag burning ban and another on same sex marriages. You can bet that this WILL work...and as the nutzoid base returns to the fold Bush’s numbers will rise once again!
Lastly, the national media, especially the TV networks, are doing endless puff pieces on Bush and our military, and US attempts to win universal hearts and minds. Add to that the fact that Bush just created a new "protected wilderness area" in Hawwaii, and even some environmentalists may become sheep...or is it lambs to the slaughter?
Watch the positive news stories increase from now until November, as crafty Karl Rove once again uses his honed skills to sway the "undecided" segment of the American electorate.
Republicans need have no fear in November. It’s in the bag, and the flock is bleating and bah bah’ing with glee!

There is, thankfully, a vast undercurrent in the US of people who don’t now, and never did believe a word GW Bush says. They said from the first day that Iraq was an illegal action, that Afghanistan was an illegal action and that 911 was an INSIDE JOB.
More and more information iscoming to light to prove the fact that the controlled demolitions of 911 were orchestrated by those high in the govt. namely, Cheney and Rummsfeld (who co-authored PNAC)
I agree with your assessment of the majority that the US is largely a nation of sheep who have been dumbded-down via the education system and the media, but I take exception and say that there are more of us than you may think.

First, sorry for the "Nation" typo, and also for the Calvera quote (wrong!) which should read:
"If God didn’t want them sheered he would not have made them sheep"
Don’t take exception. I fully realize there are millions of Americans just like you who care and fight and don’t dring the Kool Aide.

Too many commentators accept the Bush fan base at face value i.e. stupidity. Such naivete is understandable in writers from the right, such as Paul Craig Ropberts, but anyone with a knowledge of Marx should grasp the one great truth he left us: go for the money.
America knows it is slipping economically and industrially- and 9/11 is more a symptom than a cause of that. The world is catching up and she is slowing down and going down. For these born again machiavellians Bush is the last best hope to bully and coerce on the battlefield what they once could buy and cheat for on the open market. If it helps stave off the inevitable U.S. slide into second-ratehood, even the most naked aggression against innocent peoples will be smiled upon by these wolves in sheeps’ clothing.

This article is PROPAGANDA! You speak of the country as a system of information exchange, which it is NOT. The media does not transmist information or truth - they pimp out propaganda with the twist of making it seem "PLAUSBILE" when they TELL YOU WHAT THE OUTCOME WILL BE. It is not that anyone actually has to support them or even know what they do - all they have to do IS BELIEVE THAT THE STORY that they are BEING SOLD IS POSSIBLE and therefore when they commit war crimes, genocide, rape the wealth of the nation they THINK they ARE GETTING AWAY with something.
Well the RUDE and very ugly awakening is coming from the police, security agencies, and the military in general which will SOON do a COMPLETE ABOUT face - because they well know that MOST OF THEM ARE NOT INSULATED from a ECONMIC CRASH or from MASSIVE POLITICAL BACKLASH. This is the basic FLAW In the New World Odors plan. They think it can play out because they control money. But unfortunately the SURVIVAL and REALITY INSTINCTS of MAMALS which are FAMILIAL will kick in a MASS PANIC, and since their SELF INTEREST will be to that which is IMMEDIATE it will not be MASS PANIC but MASS CHANGE of the SYSTEM.
You see while BUSHY, DICKY, and WOLFY believe in the system of LIARS, AND when they decide to CRASH IT ON THE REST of US, we will have NO OTHER CHOICE but to MOVE beyond it and that includes the gun slingers - SINCE they need to EAT and LIVE in PEACE to - the choice of which side to support will be easy to MAKE - NO GUN SLINGER with a family or CHILDREN has a SAFE FAMILY if he SIDES with the TYRANTS
– PALESTINE IS THE LIVING PROOF of that - TRYING to KILL HUMANITY and PEACEFUL coexistance is a SUICIDE mission - the exact TERROR mission of the LIARS of the New World Order! HOW REALLY IDIOTIC and SMALL-MINDED the little pencil-wimp accounts-and-LIAR-LawYERS really ARE!
SO THE New World Odor is really just a rotting piece of flesh that well is about to GET THROWN OUT!
You see the RICH only have the power of the LIE - and we have the POWER of the TRUTH and the NUMBERS and thats easy to figure out... No one will support the destruction of their own humanity ANY LONGER.
CAPITALISM - FALSE RELIGION - A N D ---> BULL SHIT are DEAD and PASSING AWAY!
sorry you need to get another donut and fill out another report — hurry quickly - you have new ORDERS!
