Rants: Americans Sodimized by the Red White and Blue

RANTING and RAVINGS IN EARLY OCTOBER:
Americans Sodimized Again by the Red White and Blue:
John McCain and Dick Cheney’s On Going Tale as Gay Lovers
I listened to the Vice Presidential debates and the old political war horse Joe Biden and the moosekiller from Alaska was there. Moose killer (MK) was somewhat cute and perky, smiled a lot, even winked, flirty and had the contagious enthusiasm of a cheerleader. I would nominate MK as head of the local NRA in Alaska; the Nome, Alaska branch would be perfect. Talk about shooting and field dressing a beast, old Joe shot that beast of Republican lies and BS, then with the precision of an orthopedic surgeon he eviscerated and dissected the Republican Beast. For flickering moment, I felt a grain of optimism about the future of America.
Mc Cain as the candidate of change and the maverick, Old Joe called it straight. He said of McCain, “I know him and he is not a maverick,” with cool clarity Joe knocked off two minutes of why sclerotic and party sycophant McCain is anything but a maverick. It would be far more accurate to call McCain the Quintessential Republican Whore. I apologize right up front to all the fine whores I have known, being a whore when you’re upfront about it is perfectly legitimate; nevertheless, the perfidy of claiming you’re a virgin and immaculate virtue while you have slept in every bed, engaged in all kinds of kinky acrobatics and plain old buggery with oil and energy companies, and then constantly been in a daily love orgy with the Bush White House and call yourself a maverick is a bit of a puzzle. As far as we know Dick Cheney and John McCain are lovers…one wears black leather has a riding crop in one hand and a leather mask with a zipper, and the other wears a satin red g string. They take turns of course. In the Karl Rove world there is a certainty of truth in all this; after all McCain and Cheney both were black leather (Gucci) shoes and both have a predilection for pain. The rest is of course up to you. In the McCain world where truth is bent, fabricated, and illusions become reality… Sarah Palin jumps to the front of the queue.
Sarah was asked what it would be like if she was President:
Sarah Palin at the debate, perky, cute and winking to the camera and suddenly I’m having these psychotic fantasies-- Sarah Palin in the white house – guys doesn’t this give every red blooded American boy a hard on the size of the Exxon Valdez? Sure, as soon as McCain would take office, she’d have her pop gun on hand, and around every corner she would sneak up on him, “Got ya, John!” Soon he’d be spooked into a heart attack and then the Palin Presidency. Red blooded America folksy, just like us Soccer mom, holding a baby, one hand waving hallelujah to Armageddon, and the other hand call hand signal to the troops. “Drop the big one on Iran. Bombs away on North Korea! Ooops, did we miss and hit the South? History, history, we’re about the big picture! Drop another on the North and tell them that Jesus loves them too.” And then she giggles and smiles as she slaps the Staples Red Alert Button on top of the Oval Office Desk. A big neon sign recently installed on the White House says “Jesus loves you, even you Jews who are going to hell!” Damn, it makes GW look like the sissy Connecticut frat boy that he is.
I preferred the Democrats kind of kinky nonsense, cigars and all, I thought Clinton had done a fairly good job, but it still maintained and fostered the illusion of America as the last bastion of freedom and the ultimate superpower. Unfortunately, this has become even more apparent over the last 8 years. Now with the American Empire is a wheezing old alcoholic man in the emergency room, you wonder if anything will bring him back to life. More oxygen? More of the same medicine?
The American Empire as we know it, is more or less finished, maybe another twenty years of huffing and puffing, with their store of Armageddon nuclear war heads and poisons, strutting around the globe, and watching the value of the dollar shrink. Unless, we get a candidate, and Obama and Biden may be that ticket, to finally get off the addiction of the US as this sole Uber Power, fueled by oil, and avarice we may have a chance. The pattern of history rarely lies – Empires all have gone through the same cycle and this is starting to look like Rome in the year 275 – barbarians at the gate, the Senate corrupt, and the electorate bought off with Bread and Circus.
Now with the $700 billion pay off to Wall Street wrapped in the Red White and Blue and the promise of salvation for our economy we should feel better. I’m going to market a condom in Red White and Blue. Since so many Americans have been getting fucked in the name of patriotic slobber, it’s time we put the flag on the flag pole! None of this pussy footing around.
My rescue plan is far simpler. The bankers and head of Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, all the banks, and for good measure take these sniveling parasites of Enron and haul them along. Right down there in front of the New York Stock Exchange I’d put a row of stocks, old fashioned colonial stocks, where all these corporate malfeasants would be chained. Yes, there is a whole row of them circling the stock exchange. While the wind blows hard off the Hudson, those corporate parasites would be locked together, shivering naked, and every person who lost their pension or nest egg, could walk over throw garbage or piss on their head. If they were midgets, we would even give them a ladder so they could have a better vantage point. In the new America we are an equal opportunity society.
Obama says the next war is in Afghanistan. Barrack, wake up! Smell the fumes – the American economy is running on empty, the military is over extended, our soldiers have been on up to five rotations in Iraq and Afghanistan, and no matter how much of a GI JOE or Jane you are, we are all exhausted. Our National Guards who should be cleaning up the mess from the Hurricane in Texas or a hundred other national disasters. America is exhausted! Bring the soldiers home!
Barrack we have a choice: Fight for the future of America here on our soil or continue to expend national treasury and blood in Bugfuckastan. If the Pakistanis think Al Qaeda is such a big problem, there is a nation of 100 million people who can figure out for themselves is their freedom worth fighting for? Afghanistan it is a primitive tribal based society. In the 21st century the sentiment may be to save everyone, but in failed states, it isn’t worth it. Give every Afghani who wants it $5,000 resettlement package so they can move to Arizona, maybe John McCain might give them some of his houses. He believes in Afghani freedom, besides there is a dearth of Afghan restaurants in Arizona. And the Taliban, let them create their own barbaric, everyone knows their into boys, and so let them sodomize each other. The women, children, and the sane move them to Arizona – it looks just like Afghanistan.
None of this crazy pseudo democracy building nonsense is worth ONE SINGLE US AMERICAN LIFE. Not one. Iraq it was perfectly stable and perfectly insane in its own insane kind of way. The Iranians kept them in check. Saddam kept his people in line, kind of the way Joe Stalin did. In ten years someone would have shot the SOB and the country would have figured out their own destiny. Why does the US have to insert their ignorance into so many orifices in the world?
As every pundit NOW says, imagine if we had taken the wasted TRILLION dollars and invested it in the US economy and green energy? Imagine, eight years of being in a continual war against energy DEPENDENCE. We would have stopped funding Hugo Chavez and all the other oil despots.
Years ago there was a movie where the people opened the window and say, “I’m not going to take it any more.” Now that the fat cat corporations have saved their butts with this $700 billion dollar plan – it is another nail on the coffin of the American Dream.
McCain and Palin winning in November? I love Vermont, but it is time to go back to my Irish roots. Ireland a nation of 5 million is at war with no one has a health care system that works, and takes care of its citizens. I will miss MY America… a country of amazing natural beauty, from the heavy sultry blues of the Delta Mississippi, to the wide dreaming mountains of the Grand Tetons, the immense grandeur of Big Sur, Hawaii (though we did steal it from the Hawaiians) with its tropic paradise, and the bustling Jazz of NYC and my home in Vermont where in the autumn there is no more colorful place on the globe.
Obama and Biden… I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Though, I am scarcely optimistic that they can turn the Titanic America after it has struck the iceberg.
Wave that flag and lower the lifeboats!
