Who do we think we are? Our leaders parade around like peacocks “spreading” Democracy, when we don’t even have it ourselves, and never have! This country is a Democratic Republic.

It has always been racist, it has always educated according to what the powers that be wanted us to learn, we have always supported “violence”: in our sports, our entertainment, our PC/Xbox/???games, our men, our boys, even our girls, and of course in war, now even pre-emptive war! What the heck is that????

Oh, and lest we not forget, this whole nuclear, (NOT NUCULAR GEORGE!), threat out there in the world, hey guys, it’s US!

Yeah, the rest of the world wants nukes because the most powerful country in the world, (we think) has ‘em and, oh yeah, we use ‘em too! That’s right, don’t mess with us, we did it twice, we can do it again!!!

How about we get rid of OUR nukes and see how much things calm down? I mean come on, you’re a third world country, Dumbya is President, he’s having his own little war party killing off our people, their people, anyone who gets in the way, and he’s crazy, and he’s got the red button and he’s not afraid to use it! Yeah, I’d be tempted to nuke up if there was a way to just get the Dumbya’s of the world.

We need to forget everything that has gone before and sit down and say, “This isn’t working, how can we fix it, and where do we start?” Is there a political system in this country that is not corrupt? Can there be a political system that is not corrupt?

There is no longer any room for them and us. It is we! Throughout the World it is WE!

Do you know what I most admire about Barrack Obama? It’s a very small thing really, in the scheme of things, except to John McCain, it makes him furious! The thing that makes him a whole new kind of politician is he will sit down to talk with an “Evil World Leader” with no preconditions! My God, what a concept. Let’s see, we got problems, we need to work them out, so do we just sit down and try to work it out, or what? No, no, no, no! First you have to do this and this and this, or we will embargo your ass, cut off supply routes, ad nauseum! Yeah! That’s the way to problem solve! As my oldest son would say, “Well, DUH!, Ma!”

A man who thinks differently and doesn’t have the experience of a McCain or just about anybody else, is exactly what we need. Someone with a mind of his own and a habit of communicating.

Uh oh, this could work! Careful now, we might just all get along someday and then what would happen to the power people, they would have to do the right thing! Sounds good to me!

Whoa, was I on a rant or what! SBT

One Planet! One People! One Peace!

Neo-conservative is a label and I dislike labels. SDO and RWA, theories that I have referred to about the authoritarian personality, have been used for a number of years, with good predictive results, by a large number of psychologists. They would predict, with accuracy, that neo-conservatives are, indeed authoritarians, but so are religious extremists, of any belief system. I’m interested in the authoritarian personality and its’ impact on democracy, not in labels and political parties.

We used to call them Fundamentalists. Authoritarians is a good word too. Neocons. A New con.
