THE REAL POLITIK: ISSUE 68, VOUME 98
THE WEAK + THE REICH-OUSNESS
by Malik Isasis




















In 2006 after 12 years in the political wilderness, the Democratic Party swept into the Congress, gaining control of both houses of Congress, but President Bush still slapped them around like a pimp. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi immediately took impeaching Bush and Cheney for war crimes, off the table. So, what did the Democrats get in return? Well, like a circus elephant the Democrats knelt down so that George Bush could climb atop, once on their backs, he slapped them on their asses and dug his heel into their necks to guide them wherever he wanted them to go.

Like a trained circus elephant, the Democratic Party doesn’t realize that it is more powerful than the trainer, but because their spirits are broken, and they won’t make a move without needing the constant acceptance of the Republican Party, they are politically limp. The Democratic Party hasn’t shown any courage in a generation, which brings me to President Barack Obama, who brings back the triangulation that President Clinton was notorious for.

President Obama’s fear of prosecuting Bush Officials is a reassurance that the Democratic Party, the weak and the Republican Party, the fascists is designed to be a shit sandwich, one in which the corporate masters continue to churn us into thankless automatons.

The Democratically ‘lead’ congress is still being lead by the nose by the Republican Party because the Democratic Party is unable to comprehend that they were voted into power to counter the despotism that infected the Republicans during their absolute reign for twelve years. The Democrats have internalized the Republican Party’s propaganda of them, which is being weak on issues of national security; and poor stewards of the economy and that Democratic Party is culturally immoral. One thing is for sure, the Democrats consistently prove at least one of the Republican talking points correct: The Democratic Party is a weak alternative to the Republican imperial aggression.

The Democrats have been so consumed by the fear of being called unpatriotic that they are willing helpers of shoveling the bodies of the dead and future dead soldiers into the Gears of War to win the approval of the Republicans, but instead of receiving approval for their obedience, the Democrats receive instead more emotional abuse. It is a sick cycle. The more the Democrats bend the more the Republicans psychically abuse them. It is humiliating to watch.

Pathology of power

Republicans have no interests in “the culture of life” their sloganeering is geared toward winning elections and maintaining power. They cater to the false sense of moral superiority of the sheeple who they’ve convinced to vote against their own interests.

They are political weevils that have bored their way into the political infrastructure and have laid waste to common sense, compassion and public service. Instead the federal government serves as the jump off for their larvae to develop into full fledge corporate lobbyists and keep health care, unions out of the reach of the American people.

As the Republicans find themselves in the political dumpster they are fingering through Bush’s—or rather, Cheney’s bag of tricks. They’re in the lab working tirelessly to create the next Frankenstein monster. Meanwhile, the corporate media goose steps along with the Republicans as they shamelessly try to revitalize a new leader to lead the American Reich. Even with the treacherous corporate news, it will be difficult to reanimate the Republican corpse. After Hurricane Katrina, America saw the Republicans for who they really are…frauds. It’s like they create crises, in order to pretend to be doing something about them. The Bush Administration’s and the neocons’ one-act play has run its course and they look oxymoronic, with more emphases placed on moron as they recite tired and hacked slogans to produce fear of Socialism.

They’ve tapped the well of fear too often, leaving Americans fear-fatigued and skeptical of the false prophets of Capitalism and their Gears of War and Destruction. The level of fear that was created by Bush and Co. after September 11, 2001 and through two wars and now two occupations was not sustainable, but the Republicans are still in the trenches with forked sticks looking for any signs of fresh fear to be tapped.

President Obama has proved true to the legacy of Democratic cowardice. Even with the shrinking Republican Party, the Democrats can’t find the courage to do the right thing. This sickness of the Democrats is the fertilizer for cynicism.

The full cost of September 11, 2001, will probably be most remembered by future historians for the mass delusion perpetrated on the U.S. citizenry by a small cult of neocons; and how the protective firewall, the Democratic Party, failed due to the inner-sickness of constantly needing Republican approval.
