THE DEVIL WHISPERS AND NEVER YELLS


by Malik Isasis























November 27, 2007: Bush said. "With their violent actions and contempt for human life, the extremists are seeking to impose a dark vision on the Palestinian people: a vision that feeds on hopelessness and despair to sow chaos in the Holy Land. If this vision prevails, the future of the region will be endless terror, endless war, and endless suffering."

Bush’s inabilities to self reflect allows him to speak oxymoronically about the very thing he blame others for doing, mainly committing”endless terror, endless war, and endless suffering.” The corporate media obfuscates Bush’s mental latency because their parent companies are the very pirates who benefit from war and destruction and what Naomi Klein referred to as Disaster Capitalism.

Caveman Cometh

On November 29, 2007, CNN facilitated another Roman Circus that supposed to pass as political debate. The Republican Presidential candidates knuckled their way onto the stage with their canned 90-second responses and 30-second rebuttals. The debate was moderated by the CNN’s Anderson Cooper who did not disappoint his corporate handlers by focusing his facilitation on illegal immigration. In fact, the first 30 minutes of the debate was spent with Republicans playing one-upmanship in xenophobic, white supremacist, and false sense of moral superiority canned speeches.

It’s clear for those who are willing to lift the veil that the corporate media and their political meat puppets have worked out the time limit and rules of debate. Why is it that our political choices give themselves only 90 seconds to respond to a question and 30 seconds to rebuttal? Will they turn into a pumpkin if they go beyond the chosen allotted time? Imagine if Bush had 45 unscripted minutes to lay out his vision for the future, versus say Al Gore or John Kerry. Bush’s lack of imagination, his inability to grasp concepts and articulate them would have surely made him look like the dip shit that he is…but as I said before, it is the corporate media’s gig to try and pull the wool over our eyes and pretend that we are getting insight into the droids that are marched out onto the stage with canned answers. That ain't fresh.

I was only able to tolerate 35 minutes of the debate. The hatred toward Mexicans, the jingoistic circle jerk was puerile and allowed Republicans to escape responsibility for their K-9 fidelity on Bush's destructive plans for the world and the collapsing of the United States' economy.

The collusion between the politicians and the corporate media to short change us of ideas, imagination and creativity has resulted in elected officials who lack ideas, imagination and creativity.

The corporate whores who sponsor our politicians have trained them to see us as consumers, and if we are seen as consumers then we are seen as fools.
