THE REAL POLITIK EDITION: ISSUE 44, VOLUME 69
RABID!
by Malik Isasis
This blog entry is more of a rant than an intelligent string of ideas. The Republicans are out of their rabid-ass minds. They are still unable to assimilate the idea of no longer being in power, so they are acting out like unruly children. It’s fun watching them and their political operatives become Lord of the Flies.
Republican patriotism is pornographic, and self-indulgent and self-serving. It has worked for eight years because the corporate media refused to stand up. They did not question the Bush administration’s adventurism for fear of losing access, financial gain and being labeled as unpatriotic. Ben Bagdikian, a media critic stated in his book, The Media Monopoly, “Unchallenged information is inherently flawed information. If it is in error to begin with, it is not open to correction” (Bagdikian X1IV).
Reality has shown Republicans’ uber love for country to be nothing more than an election gimmick and over the past two election cycles, Americans have thrown them out on their asses. Still, they are unable to accept responsibility for their failure at governance—the loss of millions of jobs, the devalued dollar, two illegal occupations, corporate corruption, deregulation of monopolies, torture, domestic spying, and straight up thievery from the federal treasury.
Since being in control of the Congress from 1994-2006, they and their allies find everyone but themselves to blame. They seem obtuse as to why tax cuts, smaller government, and free-market economy sloganeering hasn’t worked over the last two election cycles—even in the midst of their president growing the government though a bogus War on Terror, giving tax cut to the wealthy, and a free market economy that has ushered in systemic corruption and economic depression, they seem unable to connect the dots of philosophical failure, and a philosophical shift in the country.
They are grieved and are rebuilding, but they are unable to get over their own de-evolution, that is, they don’t value intelligence, only incurious shitbomb throwing monkeys. After eating their weak, they will recess back into the shadows of American politics and get back-to-basics, using their primary skills as political operatives to again, stage a come back when a world crisis presents itself; the corporate media will no doubt welcome its exiled paramour back with opened arms. Until that time, they will use cultural issues to keep their reptilian brained base primed with gays, illegal Mexicans, and Obama the socialists.
Media Matters has followed their ghastly echo chamber in their report.
Women, minorities, autistic children: Conservative radio's vitriol not reserved for Obama…
