Hey cy,
Nice post Cy. I am waiting for the astute and brave soul that slammed me to come back and share his enlightened views. No doubt they will be Christian. For some reason they tend to take it upon themselves to have the last word or to be evasive and vexatious. Here is another question if he comes back. Is it a coincidence that the neo-cons,enlisted for their launching pad to the presidency and the behind the scenes agenda, the christian coalition and random Christian voters when the aim of their murderous imperialist schemes and destruction was the heart of the muslim world? Plays right into the weakness of the fantasy. Christians should be outraged by the murders of 100’s of thousand but they feel vindicated because their little pie in the sky fantasies are validated by American power brokers.They are Pawns. Republicans who aren’t also overly patriotic, brainwashed Christians have dumped this administration. The rest have blood on their hands for oil and american standard of living paid for by obliterated muslims and a few thousand young americans and they know it. Must be a hard tradeoff? Sit back and watch your religious views be debunked and your influence fade or take sides with a murderous bunch or money&power mongers to be validated and enjoy the perception of future financial security. All the Republicrats had to do is propagandize to enough zealots to get them elected and have a constituency and eight years of gridlock that supports their fraud.It is not just the Christians and republicans either. Both parties play that “standard of living crap” and “strong american economy” for the consumption/debt addicted masses.” Implied don’t worry we will not back off this murderous imperial agenda enough to put your spending or debt paying at at risk. I would rather be poor than have the blood on my hands. Problem, in our society me being poor doesn’t fix anything it just means I am screwed in my old age.(now everybody jump in with the genius next logical question ,Why don’t you leave?) Which means “stop bothering us with your observations.
I got to thinking, why do we need films like Zeitgeist that muddle the issues when the hard cold facts are abominable enough? What fixes it? It has been said on this blog many times, let’s get our heads out of the sand, our fantasies, both politcal parties BS, get beyond our fearful lower instincts for hording and competing and say something about the murders and plunder.
Vote “no confidence” however you see fit to accomplish that in the next elections. I know we are afraid that if we vote no confidence we get the Republicans again or feel that we might as well vote for our self interest.The Democrats are going to blame Iraq on the Republicans but where is a real and sustained outcry from them? No they are to busy pandering as well. Our concerns for integrity are totally irrelevant because of the charade we call an electoral system and a democracy as long as we are satisfied to play along every four years.
