Well tomorrow hurricane
Sandy will slide from our consciousness, all that mayhem and misery
will disappear from the “babbling brook of bullshit”, commonly
called the mainstream media, there are more important things to
report. Tomorrow is the culmination of the biggest, most expensive
ever, Crooks and Liars competition. Yes, $6 billion, I'll repeat
that, $6 billion, spent on helping the American people to decide
whether they should vote for Coke or Pepsi. Each contestant in this
Crooks and Liars competition claiming that if the American people
vote for the other, the world will collapse and the Apocalypse will
be upon us all.
Once the decision is made, and the new mouthpiece of
corporate imperialism takes his place on the throne at the White
House, no matter who, the same old, same old shit will continue.
There will be wars dotted around, which we will be told is our way of
bombing democracy into those people fortunate to be picked by our
imperial masters. Most of those chosen, will of course have oil
and/or gas on their land, but that doesn't influence our decision to
bomb them into democracy. Poverty will continue to grow across the
world, while the corporate world continues to get richer and richer.
The army of parasites will sink deeper and deeper into the froth of
opulence, while the vast majority sink further into the mire of
poverty and deprivation. Then in four years when the shine has worn
off the residing Pope of Plutocracy, the merry-go-round will start up
again, the billions of dollars will once again flow, and the
spectacle of the Crooks and Liars competition will repeat itself. And
so the cycle goes on, our reward for allowing ourselves to be screwed
big time is this very expensive illusion of change, every four or five
years depending on where you live. Can you think of a better way to
shape our society?
