Love at first sight





Totally my bad. Today. Again.


Yes, totes my bad is my new mantra, and that is clearly not a good thing.

The insane, inane political brouhaha over the weekend has finally forced me to switch off the cable news networks [where telly is generally parked, for background noise, such a depressing admission, but a fact forced on me by current socioeconomic circumstances] and turn to other, ever so slightly less inane, noise.

I’m afraid the bastards, hacks and whores who make up mainstream media, in their usual collusion with their political cohorts, have finally orchestrated an endgame scenario of intolerable fiction, stupidity and unbearably endless loops. At least for me.

I hate them for it, it has me consumed and, god knows, I have to stop thinking about it. And, thanks to Robert Reich, I can! He said it, now I don’t have to, and, to make it all the more seamless, he even uses the same template!!

So be it, and now I can move on to other, less soul-stealing subjects.

"80% of americans know the nation is on the wrong track. Old politics, and the old media that feeds it, are irrelevant now."

Of course they know, but this knowledge, this obviety doesn't grant the irrelevance of old politics and the old media to be anything more than wishfull thinking...

Obama is no new hope... he is just a new and somewhat refreshed skin to cover the same depths as usual.

To be allowed to compete for nomination, he must abide by the rules of the party he runs for, and complete a monitored "learning curve" that makes sure his mindset is completely tuned to the wishes of them who fund the party, and to the need to play the tune that will keep the ever more astronomic amounts of money needed to run these everlasting campaigns on rails.

What the people really wants stays as secondary as ever, because every politician today can't do without selling their soul to the money-machine if they want to reach the summit.

As long as there is no way of reaching the summit without selling your soul first, gender, race, and any other more superficial aspects really don't matter... all you are offered is a soulless puppet on a string, and those who pull the ropes stay in control.

The american political circus is world-famous for this phenomenon, but the european playground is closing the gap at ever increasing speed.

In 2005 they tried to sell us an "Constitutional Treaty", this time they are simply trying to shove it down our throats by force.

Only your fellow countrymen get an vote on the issue this time, and they are being lobbyed into submission ruthlesly...

99% of the people know they do not want any treaty they can not even understand, but... no matter what they vote, only the puppets on their masters string have a chance of winning any kind of election, and the treaty is first issue on the masters agenda.

They fund the most relevant political parties, and they own most of the mainstream mass-media.

Swimming upstream against their wishes is very hard labour, but it can be done if one knows their weaknesses and finds out a strategy that takes both advantage of these and of the plain peoples strength.

As long (and it wont be that long anymore) as no matter how much money they throw at it one person (lets simplify, one brain, no matter what his level of development is), is one vote, reason can be used to convince them, and reason can be far more powerfull than money if "marketed" rightly.

June 12th is one of the most crucial battles of this century, for Europe, America and the rest of the world. Neocon Napoleon must be stopped, and Eire should be the Waterloo of this century.

Cut the strings, get rid of the puppeteers.
