- Democracy is a time-consuming affair because the governed need to be involved in every major decision; this was designed to take place in open hearings throughout the congress, with input being filtered from the pubic through their 'representatives. Not any longer! Since we became a fascist police state, all of that has become passé.
- Apparently all that is needed is for the Dictator to give a televised lecture, followed by immediate action from the congress that is totally out-of-sync with the population-then everybody in Washington gets to go home and campaign to get re-elected to the same do-nothing jobs all over again!
- What happened to holding open hearings, the presentation of the "facts" behind the supposed "needs"! Listening to our resident alcoholic leader, even though he appeared to be semi-sober tonight; hardly constitutes proof of anything as the man is a congenital liar, a proven international criminal and perhaps the single most disastrous president the Republic has ever had.
- The point being: just because Bush says something does not mean that there is any truth whatever to his statements-he's lied too many times about everything he's gone to the microphones for. Have we no collective memory at all! This is not a national TV game show where a topic can be trotted out, without national discussions, and then "voted on" within 24 to 48 hours, before we leap to the next crisis! Is this a nation with depth or a circus that's trying to run a side-show on television. The ramifications of this potential crime that we're watching unfold on television is just too great to by-pass the congressional requirement for sober and intelligent partisan debate: partisan because ostensibly not everyone in the country agrees with our very own idiot leader: hence there ought to be discussions as to the veracity of his view!
- "Bi-partisanship (everyone in government's favorite term of late) is government-speak for one-party rule, because it cannot symbolize anything else. What by-partisanship stands for is the death of a true democracy and the end of the Republic-it has nothing to do with coming to the best decision on any topic that is treated to this misconstrued concept of governance!
- The list of government miscalculations and outright colossal failures should have automatically disqualified anyone from the sitting administration, or the congress; and especially the heads of the SEC, the Treasury, or the FED to speak on behalf of "what should be done to fix this problem," if there is indeed an urgent crisis: as this has not yet been proven.
- So what's the rush all about, could it be tomorrow's demonstrations on Wall Street, complete with pitchforks and torches: "There is no central group organizing this event. But as the call to action that began circulating Monday afternoon noted, "Do whatever you can make and distribute your own flyers, contact all your groups and friends. This crime is without precedence and we can't be silent! What's the point of waiting for someone else to organize a protest two months from now, long after the crime has been perpetrated?"
- ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THURSDAY'S PROTEST
- When: 4pm Thursday, September 25!
- Where: Southern end of Bowling Green Park, in the plaza area
- What to bring: Banners, noisemakers, signs, leaflets, etc.
- Why: To say we won't pay for the Wall Street bailout." (1)
- There is so much more about all of this that the public is not being told, and so much more that will radically alter everything else in our lives: We cannot afford to trust the congress, the courts or the administration to level with us on this one: because this is a FUNDAMENTAL change in the way everything is done by government, to the people they are supposed to be protecting.
- There is a huge amount of history here that is being ignored: these knuckle-draggers have been "in-charge totally" for the last nearly eight years, and they broken virtually everything in our way of life: they've desecrated the constitution suspended the entire Bill of Rights, spied upon us since seven months before 911, declared two unilateral and illegal wars, bankrupted the nation and passed their debts down to at least the next five generations!
- "The U.S. government has been turned into an engine that accelerates the wealth upwards into the hands of a few. The Wall Street bailout, the Iraq War, military spending, tax cuts to the rich, and a for-profit health care system are all about the acceleration of wealth upwards. And now, the American people are about to pay the price of the collapse of the $513 trillion Ponzi scheme of derivatives. Yes, that's half a quadrillion dollars." (2)
- What does it take for Americans to finally say: "Hell No I'm not going to take this anymore!" Where's the anger, where's the outrage: these inhuman incompetent politicians blindsided the nation with this bogus ploy to steal the way profits and losses are divided, along with any remaining semblance of integrity at any level of this thoroughly corrupted criminal-enterprise that masquerades as what used to be the government of the United States of America.
- Do you not know a con-game when you see one; are you so brain-dead that you have forgotten that the only people to blame for all of this are the same people that are demanding that you give them everything else they now say they "must have immediately!" These people are not professionals, they're criminals-all of them- can you not see that! You sit there night after night and passively swallow their brand of Kool-aid, as though it was the only drink in the world: WHY!
- These are the same people that lied to you about Weapons of Mass Destruction, about 911, about spying on us all: they have also lied about the costs of everything they've undertaken to 'accomplish,' and we let them get away with it.
- The USA P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act was rushed through, just like this nightmare, and look what that piece of trash has wrought: have YOU read it! That gives the government the right to empty your bank account without any proof of any wrong-doing on your behalf. And if that wasn't enough they then added Patriot Act II, neither was read by the criminals in congress, they just did as they were told and passed it; in terror no doubt of what the Dictator was saying might be true. Cowards have no place in government, and this most recent crop of cowards is not willing to protect the public any more than were the previous cowards that have consistently failed us all, miserably!
- A people no longer willing to stand up for themselves has no business calling themselves either free or independent, because the truth is they are cowards that deserve neither the freedom they say they seek, nor the security they obviously believe their silence will buy them! Burn up the phone lines and do something visible this time, because you're running out of time alright: but it doesn't have to do with revamping the rules of finance; rather this is about whether or not you will have a future at all.
- Remember the Income tax, that too was supposed to be "temporary," just like this 'adjustment is supposed to be ended within a very short time.' If you believe that then you deserve these creatures! Just look at McCain and his most recent dodge to avoid a debate: "Too important to hold a debate," well if it's that important why didn't he or Obama leave the senate, and take their chances before deciding to run for president? If ever there was a NEED for a debate then it ought to be now: ON THIS TOPIC! Yet both these half-baked fools have decided to "do what's best for the country" (translation: capitulate to the direct orders of the Dictator and his owners), and get this "deal" wrapped up quickly- so that the money begins to flow unimpeded back into the overstuffed pockets of all their favorite sponsors!
- None of those "in-charge" gives a damn about ordinary Americans, except to force us to pay for all of their totally obscene mistakes: that's all you and I are good for-to bail them out- even if it bankrupts us all!
