[The Exorcist]

As opposed to standard fascism and socialism?

Obama chose to make Rush his nemesis. When did 
you ever see the America White House go after by name
Radio, TV and Media personalities? Did you maybe 
not hear about the White House meetings and phone calls
with Carville, Begala, Rahm Emanual and who knows 
who else (on American Tax Payers dime mind you).

When ppl. accused the Bush house of giving 
talking to points to FOX, all hell broke loose. Now nary a peep.
The shit is hitting the fan all over the place 
and everything the Obama administration has put their foot into is
turning into a shitfest.

The Rush controversy most definitely helped 
create a diversion for a short period of time. 
When Obama goes after Sean Hannity
I say to myself "Why the fuck are you wasting 
your time with this? Your record will be the 
answer to the debate, not going after some
damned pundit!"

Obama's "ideology" is all over the place, I don't 
think anyone knows where it lies. Though things are starting to peek through.

Obama wants to close Gitmo but allows rendition. 
Unmanned bombers flying over the border into Pakistan dropping loads? Check.
Just like Bush. He's a walking mishmosh.

He wants to bring universal health care, he care for people you know. Right?
That's why he was gonna fuck over the wounded 
Vets with health insurance. (All hell broke loose 
and he just recanted his position.)
He chose to not even discuss it when he was in 
the meeting the folks from the Legion.

Obama's reaction to the "white mans Katrina" 
Kentucky Ice storm. Look up on the effects of that storm, how many ppl. had
to leave their houses, had no gas no electricity 
in freezing weather and how much help they got from the Obama administration.
Would it be ok for me to daresay that Obama hates white people?

To quote Fred Reed:
--------------------------------------
"While the United States is freer and more 
democratic than many countries, it is not, I 
think, either as free or as democratic as we are 
expected to believe, and becomes rapidly less so. 
Indeed we seem to be specialists in maintaining 
the appearance without having the substance. 
Regarding the techniques of which, a few thoughts:

(1) Free speech does not exist in America. We all 
know what we can’t say and about whom we can’t say it.

(2) A democracy run by two barely distinguishable 
parties is not in fact a democracy.

A parliamentary democracy allows expression of a 
range of points of view: An ecological candidate 
may be elected, along with a communist, a 
racial-separatist, and a libertarian. These will 
make sure their ideas are at least heard. By 
contrast, the two-party system prevents 
expression of any ideas the two parties agree to 
suppress. How much open discussion do you hear 
during presidential elections of, for example, 
race, immigration, abortion, gun control, and the 
continuing abolition of Christianity? These are 
the issues most important to most people, yet are quashed.

The elections do however allow the public a sense 
of participation while having the political importance of the Superbowl.
--------------------------------------

Splitting American into 2 countries never quite 
crossed my radar. So I can't really comment on that.
Nor have I given it much thought.

People try to create bogeyman where none exist. 
It's always been that way. Give them something to fight and they'll
rally behind you. If they don't have anything to 
attack they might just give you personal scrutiny. Or they just feel empty.

Remember, Bogeyman do not exist.

Ps, I'm surprised how you can harbor such anger 
towards rush when there are so many better targets to go after.
Say... Murderers, Rapists, Bombers, Radical 
psychos who physically HARM ppl. (Politicians? *grin*)
