The one thing that stands clear and obvious as the farce of United States elections goes forward is that the whole thing is a mighty con-job.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"Unthinkable?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We accept that \u2018confidence\u2019 is an integral element in the inspiring of electors to vote for one representative or another but see little in their spruiking that belies their actual plans and intentions.<\/h5>\n
Obama touts \u2018Change (for change\u2019s sake)\u2019 but intends very much more of the same.<\/h5>\n
Clinton touts \u2018Change\u2019 (it\u2019s my turn now!).<\/h5>\n
Huckabee touts \u2018Change\u2019 back to the 50s \u201cBy Golly\u201d.<\/h5>\n
McCain touts \u2018Change\u2019 the deckchairs on the Titanic.<\/h5>\n
Romney touts \u2018Change\u2019 but refuses to disclose what to. (at least Huck\u2019 assumed the high theological ground \u2013 his pagan ecumenical mates\u00a0must be impressed – “We sure showed them mormons who owns God!”)<\/h5>\n
None of them will run on the reality that the first Order of Business will be to impress upon the World that George W Bush was right. If elected, any of them would be compelled to put on Dubwah\u2019s spurs and climb into his saddle.<\/h5>\n
Still we must watch the media snow-job as a pretend election takes place while self-selected elites conduct the true apportioning of fleeting glory.<\/h5>\n
If this was genuinely a matter for representatives to nominate their choice of nominees, what was it to do with the media? If this was not a gigantic con-job on a National scale, what was the need to \u2018defray\u2019 risk over a period of months?<\/h5>\n
The one thing that is transparently obvious is that it\u2019s \u201cwhere the money is\u201d that counts. NOT the cash put in by nominees, nor the cash they arbitrarily \u2018raise\u2019 toward their cause. The real money is the backroom moolah by which USA governments stand or fall. Who votes in US elections, on a personal and individual basis, matters very little indeed.<\/h5>\n
The unwashed masses are permitted only to endorse the One put before them by the brokers of their fate.<\/h5>\n
So you think the outcome was \u2018close\u2019 for Dubwah in Florida? Would the outcome internationally have been different? Would Osama have surrendered? Been captured? Would Pakistan have got no CIA support? Would the CIA not have reneged on its support?<\/h5>\n
At present the USA is embarked on a course likely to bring great danger for the US and for the World. Others globally are watching and some are sophisticated but others are very na\u00efve.<\/h5>\n
When the Pentagon, the NSA and the NIE have finished their briefings of the poor old Commander-In-Chief, he will pray for something as simple as a hurricane in New Orleans to distract from the \u201creal tough issues\u201d that pass daily onto his plate.<\/h5>\n
Dealing with the more than dire consequences of decades of obscurantism and the placating of rabid despots, tyrants, religious zealots and (yes) communists will call for no nerves but a steady thumb. The ones who have been bought do not consider themselves bought then and certainly not bought NOW. All those low-life snot-wiping thugs who have been given legitimacy on the World Stage now have to be nailed to it while it\u2019s burned to the ground.<\/h5>\n
They won\u2019t want to stay. They won\u2019t go quietly. They will fight in ways the West has forgotten.<\/h5>\n
We will remember. It will all come back like it was yesterday. \u201cFew will survive.\u201d<\/h5>\n
