Round 3: The Knock Out Punch

Winner, and still champion by TKO in the 3rd round, by a 2 out of 3 judges decision,
Barry"the Bomba" Obama. Bummer Mitt, you had Barry on the ropes in the early going, but you caved during crucial give and takes, consistently contradicting yourself, and showing the world your true nature.

Mitt Rmoney will say anything to anyone in order to garner their vote. The man stands as tall and stout as the shifting sands of the Sahara. Snakes have more backbone.

When it comes to America's political scene one truism stands out; regardless of party it's about power.

This election however pits a 3D vision of the future against a blurry view of the past as perceived through a sepia tone print of glory days gone by.

Rmoney, and Ryan want you to believe that your grandfathers and great grandfathers had it best when they worked without collective bargaining under harsh take it or leave it conditions. They want you to forget your forefathers hard fought battles that secured a middle class for America.
The oligarchs running corporate America had little or no interest in building a strong educated workforce; quite the contrary, their only goal was personal enrichment. Knowing full well that the better educated the sons and daughters of these workers became, the harder it would become to maintain the indentured servitude nature of their fathers employment. In Rmoney's mind it's not much different today.

Rmoney and his ilk have spent the past 25 years dismantling America's manufacturing capacity, shipping jobs and technology to China, Taiwan, Japan, Latin America, Mexico..., all in the name of corporate dividends.
At least that was the company line:
"We're just doing what's best for the company and it's shareholders..."
In reality; they were actively breaking unions with an eye towards rolling back collective bargaining agreements that actively fed and nurtured a strong American middle class.
I mean how can they truly be in control, when they have to meet the demands of the peons they've deigned to employ? Power implies control, beware those who seek either.

Rmoney and Ryan want you to believe that the prevailing wages paid to non union employees have nothing to do with the wages paid to union represented workers. When collective bargaining is eliminated under their plan, how fast do you think real wages will fall?
My guess is, that descent will be mind numbingly rapid, akin to a death spiral in an out of control aircraft.

After securing the death of collective bargaining the next assault will be on our private lives, with the government of R&R doing all they can to insert Big Brother into our bedrooms. Roe v Wade will be the first target, with R&R expending the bulk of their political capital in a Quixotic misadventure the Taliban would be proud of. Much the same way Barry ignored the economy to pass BarryCare.

They fight not for the honor and humility of service to country; but for the opportunity to enrich themselves and their close financial supporters.

If Mitt felt so strongly about serving; how come he took two deferments from the draft during VietNam? I guess he felt entitled to dictate the terms of his service...

Barry vs. Mitt: Round II

Dear Barry, and Mitt,

Two down, one to go, and just a few weeks remaining before we're forced to cast a vote for one of you sorry excuses for leadership. Your last debate, supposedly addressing foreign policy, represents your final opportunity in this election cycle to convince the American people that you understand why the rest of the world hates our guts.

Your first two debates established the fact that neither of you are interested in truth, facts, or reality. 

I expect this third encounter to devolve into outright name calling, blatant lying, and all out political farce. For entertainment value alone it's worth viewing; but when it comes down to why these debates are occurring, I believe we're being short changed.

Mitt you're clueless in this area as during your trip abroad you successfully alienated one of the few countries that tolerate us, Great Britain. And Barry, controlled by the corporate powers that pull the governments strings, you're next to powerless like all elected officials, to turn the tide of American hegemony wrought upon the world over the last 100 plus years.

Neither one of you, has either the backbone or the sense of reality required to efficiently run our very polarized nation. Neither of you holds the capacity to unify a people intentionally divided by a ruling class that did not foresee the effect of using religion as a wedge against the middle. Or demonizing middle class wage earning union members as scapegoats for less than competitive American products. Mitt you and the Republicans are particularly guilty of this last charge, as you fail to acknowledge the fact that you and every American CEO of a Fortune 500 company are compensated at rates far beyond your peers in the rest of the first world. You guys pay yourselves like the Shah of Iran. Remember what happened to him? Worst of all is the fact that your party has been in open conflict with the middle class for almost a generation now when Uncle Ronnie fired the opening salvo with his abolition of the air traffic controllers union.

Sure.

Most importantly though as demonstrated by the first two debates, neither you nor the parties you represent are working for the betterment of the American people.

Once again we witness a struggle for power, that will only bear fruit for a small cabal of politically savvy, wealthy individuals.

These debates are all the evidence I need to demand change. Substantive, exacting change.

America needs at least one more relevant political party, independent of the two established patrimonies. Optimally three or four parties. 

A radically truncated election cycle, 60 days max.

Stringent limitations on fundraising by our elected officials.

No corporate or union political activity.

Lobbyists for any cause strictly forbidden.

Return all American armed forces to barracks in the USA. We killed Bin Laden, we're done. WWII is over, so is the Korean War, bring them all home.

We are not the American Empire, we are not the worlds policeman. It is not incumbent on us to dictate morality to other nations or to our own citizens.

Governments function is to provide security and infrastructure in this country, not in Afghanistan.

Nor is it the governments responsibility to regulate life choices that effect only me; so please I respectfully request that this government butt the fuck out of my life, if I want advice on how to live I'll contact Oprah.

Thank You,

American Reality Party

Thank You Mitt!!

August 12, 2012




Dear Mitt,
On behalf of a grateful party we congratulate you for stepping out of your well rehearsed character by making the bold choice of Paul Ryan as your Vice Presidential running mate.
America is now faced with perhaps the clearest choice ever presented in a Presidential race.
With your selection Mitt, you've raised the bar substantially.

We now offer the people two choices.
The first option; stay with the status quo. Incremental change taking our nation back down a slow retrograde path to legislated oligarchy. My personal fave.
Option two, embrace carefully selected excerpts from the objectivist teachings of an author cum philosopher, that propel us down the path of citizen servitude at a rate of speed the Air Force would covet in a nuclear missile. Now that's what I call balls my man!!

Really Mitt, we here at party headquarters extend our most heart felt gratitude to you for making the choice so clear for tens of millions of voters nationwide.

My job is now far easier than I could have ever hoped!

Continued Sucksess,
President Barry O'Bama

P.S. That's not a typo in "sucksess" by the way...

What an Em'Barry'sment

So Barry, a new biography coming our way detailing the high school exploits of our current and future President while a member of the notorious "Choom Gang". Smoking weed, drinking beer, doing all the things kids do at that age. All while attending the privileged Punahou School in Oahu with the islands' wealthy elite.

Do tell us Barry, if it was OK for you to partake without penalty; why are you suddenly persecuting those of us who use marijuana for medicine legitimately while under the protection of medical marijuana laws you did not have the benefit of?

Barry allow me to shed a little light for you; those people who elected you, the people who are tired of war, who fear the pendulum's continued swing to the right, are now wondering why you're pushing that pendulum further to the right than Bush?

You've successfully suspended Posse Comitatus, directed the FAA to allow drone flights in civilian airspace. The next logical step in this progression would be to foment public unrest, allowing for the occupation of America's cities under martial law. Considering the ham handed tactics unleashed under your watch, used  with your blessing to quell the Occupy protests; might these be the beginnings of or the training sessions for, the implementation of martial law?
Will the troops coming home be discharged, or will they be dragooned into service here as imposers of martial law?

Thankfully our troops are ending their overseas commitments in two wars whose outcomes will not be known for probably another generation. America re-opened Pandora's Box of interfaith war that the despots of the region had kept a lid on for decades. Clearly these governments we've overthrown were not our friends, nor did they serve their citizenry. However when we endeavor to transplant our way of government on others who have neither the desire nor training to sustain the effort, we get what we have in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Dysfunction, corruption, ineptitude, and a patronage system akin to Tammany Hall.
Different yes, but better?

Reality is America, regardless of who we think we're voting into office, that person does not exist.
He or she is nothing more than an amalgamation of disparate words and deeds, pandering to the elite who control our lives. If you want change, real change, it's not going to happen at the polling place controlled by corporate interests. Look to your past for your future America, the solution lies there.

Barry Strikes Again...

How many of you heard Barry's latest civil liberty proclamation today?
The better question is: How many of you believe him?
Personally I'm experiencing a little deja vu here; remember the 2008 election when Barry told us that he supported medical marijuana, and would not prosecute in states were medical marijuana laws were in force? I may not clearly remember what I ate for breakfast yesterday, but I do have a strong recall of that particular statement.
We all know what happened to that promise don't we?
Or perhaps we should ask Richard Lee the founder of Oaksterdam University, how true to his word Barry is?

Now he's telling our gay citizens that he supports their right to marriage.
More election year pandering to a constituency he was going to carry anyway. Why?
Will he follow the same modus operandi for gay marriage as he has with marijuana, lulling us into a sense of safety, only to drop the hammer later?
Will our government deploy the same drones they intend to use for general surveillance of the populace, to also monitor lifestyle choices?
Clearly they'll be operating their drones over our homes and public lands, not to keep us safe, but to keep us in line.

Here it is my gay friends; Barry's asking you to all come out into the light, become public with your relationships and with his blessing marry.
All I ask is that you question why?

And The Race Goes On and On and On...

Many papers and pundits are calling the Retardican primary for Romney now.
Retro Rick fading fast like a single candle at the end of a very long dark tunnel.
Gingrich's money bag Ancient Adelson advising Newt and Callista that the book tour goes on without him and his dollars. Nobody's really sure what happened to Ron Paul.
That only leaves us a brief seven months to get acquainted with Mitt.

As sacrificial lambs go, so goes Mitt unto the fire of an election he's doomed to lose. Hear me now believe me later, Barry wins in a landslide. This Retardican Primary more so than any before it, has rendered the unelectable like so much pink slime oozing from a meat processing centrifuge.
Bombastic statements followed by evermore radical right religionist promises of social reform along the lines of melding church and state; have shown the Retardicans to be completely disconnected from the main stream of American thought.

While the Retardicans flail their stubby little limbs about attempting to herd the cats that have become their party; the Dumbocrats rest on Barry's laurels, such as they are.
Hoping that the debacle of Nancy "HRM"Pelosi as Speaker can be overcome by the recent memory of the Boner lead House. Seriously, when in our history have we had two such completely incompetent pirates back to back like Boner and "HRM", running the house?
Really good pirates like Tip O'Neill held the post for years on end, passing out committee seats like presents at Christmas, which they are. If the Retardicans lose the house, will the "Queen of Insider Trading", "HRM" Pelosi retake the position? Will she bury the legislation barring the trading that has made her a very wealthy woman?
Let's all say it together now--Dead On Arrival; much like the muscles in Nancy's overly botoxed face.

Reality in America precludes rational thought in politics, because the candidates insist upon separating the herd through polarizing topics of personal choice, rather than focusing on the issues that plague us all. In the case of Romney, his call to action for the masses consists of nothing more than:
"I'm the only one of the unelectable who has a remote chance of unseating Barry...want to bet ten grand?"

Beyond that, Mitt has no intention of reintroducing strong manufacturing jobs to our hungry workforce; he's already proven himself to be one hell of a union buster via Bain Capitol, thereby decimating thousands of jobs that did provide middle class incomes to families across the country.
Mitt also advocated for the bankruptcy of GM and Chrysler, which would have sent droves of workers into the unemployment lines; pushing the UAW into the dustbin of history while in the process making collective bargaining in American industry a thing of the past.

One thing you can say about the Retardicans though is that they do have an agenda, crystal clear virulently anti common man with an eye towards our ultimate subjugation. Think Vonnegut's "Wreaks and Wrecks", hordes of underemployed roaming the streets with brooms and shovels cleaning the roads for the oligarchs who automated meaningful labor for the enrichment of the few.

The Dumbocrats on the other hand seem only interested in the gathering and maintenance of personal power and wealth, as they indulge the whims of their fringe interest groups. Continually promising reform but consistently handing us over to the same oligarchy that sustains the opposition. Barry Care or Obama Care is a fine example. Rather than offering the public real affordable medical care, this plan does nothing more than make us obligatory customers of the most rapacious industry in America.
The Insurance industry.

Two party's, one goal; separate you from your money, your rights, your power.
