" FOOD FOR THOUGHT or THE FEEDING FRENZY "

Mornin Citizens..........Nothing Earth shakin to rag on this AM, although there certainly is much that we could. I have been lately pondering our state of existence in the cosmic sense. How we fit in and how we react to our surroundings and how we got to where we are now. Lets examine where are we now and reflect backward.
The present Human condition seems to be chaotic, vengeful, greedy, self serving, and ultimately destructive. So why do we continue down this path? From where I sit "WE" don't! We seem to be living in the advent horizon of a big black hole where a center force is constantly pulling us in, feeding on our fears and our circumstance for nothing more than their gluttony. The small but all powerful centrist few, that for all practical purposes, control everything everywhere. What is their ultimate goal? What happens when their are no more third world countries with cheep labor? Can "THEY" control the human condition so completely that if needed they have the ability to create a third world labor force? The evidence would seem to suggest that is exactly how it works. Just look at AMERICA! Once the power house of the world. We were the ultimate producers as well as the biggest consumers. We made good products that were the envy of the rest of the world. We took pride in our ability to include everyone in the bounty of the land. What the fuck happened? We were tagged for destruction just because of the mentioned reasons. "WE THE PEOPLE" were becoming to powerful, to independent, and most of all, to uncontrollable. Enter WTO, GATT, NAFTA, FREE TRADE, and THE WORLD ECONOMY!... Exit INDUSTRY,UNIONS, GOOD WAGES, JOB SECURITY, and YOUR WAY OF LIFE AS YOU KNOW IT!.......... This just didn't happen, it was planned!
There are those that say that it is just progress and the cost of doing business in a global economy. Do you really believe that dribble? Progress would be bettering the human condition of our citizens with their fair share of the pie, (Once called "THE AMERICAN DREAM") with sane prices for products, universal health care, free collage so all have the opportunity to advance their knowledge, and the powers that be legislate on behalf of the common good, not under a "CONTRACT WITH (corporate) AMERICA".
So those are my thoughts for today. Now pick up your lunch box and go to work for "THE MAN".....because he owns you now, body and SOUL!

" THE WASHINGTONIAN DICTIONARY "

One thing we can count on Washington to do, and do rather well, is waste our Tax Dollars along with the blood of our children, in the pursuit of monetary gain by greedy Corporations. Another thing they seem to be good at is explaining the reasons why this is so important for your safety. But being that we the citizens are regarded as bumbling idiot uneducated consumers they have decided to make it simple, for the simple masses, to understand.....ergo - "THE WASHINGTONIAN DICTIONARY"
I have obtained a paper-back version that is incomplete and need your help to fill in the blanks. Here is what I have:

1. Shock & Awe - The presentation of American Corporate Wealth's insatiable greed along with complete indifference to how many lives it takes to "Get More"
2. The Surge - An attempt to prolong a failed policy and maintain the flow of tax dollars and lives into the coffers of Big Oil.
3. The Awakening - A reworking of the term, The Surge, but adding pay offs to the enemy to stop them from killing us.
4. The Sons of IRAQ - This one seems to have been stolen from OUR History, "Sons of Liberty" but never mind, who will notice anyway? It just sounds patriotic!
5. Fault Lines - Use to be called, " The Front Lines". But since the enemy has us surrounded, I guess the term is as good as another.

OK... Help me out here folks! Any others you can think of or a different interpretation of my version?

" BETRAEUS..... PART DEUX "

Was anyone surprised? I don't think so. Just more echoes delivered by the Bush Corporation to stall just long enough for Georgie to slip out the back door and dump his trash in the lap of the next President. Time to end the invasion and bring the troops home!

" JOHN ADAMS "

Well?..... What do you think of the Show? Has any of the relevancy of their time survived till now? Frankly, having only been around 200+ years, I think the Great Experiment has failed! What do you think?
