THE REAL POLITIK ISSUE: VOLUME 126, ISSUE 158
THE CURIOUS CASE OF THE DISAPPEARANCE OF GEORGE W. BUSH
by Malik Isasis
It would seem the American people and the corporate media have given President Barack Obama just barely 24 months to fix the economic collapse, and clean up two wars/occupations left behind by his predecessor former President George W. Bush, which took some eight years to create. The corporate media always looking forward, immediately began casting for the role of the Republican who would rise out of the ashes to become a 2012 presidential candidate--moments after Obama's inauguration. In their star search came a plethora of right wing corporate ideologues.
ATTACK OF THE CLONES
The corporate media and its political punditry like school yard bullies on the playground forced the likes of former half-term Alaska Governor Sarah Palin down our throats. Palin who seemed the natural Manchurian Candidate, an empty vessel is the epitome of know nothingness. If anything, the investment class, recognized in Sarah what they had discovered in its former Manchurian Candidate, Bush--that the government's only function was to be the investment class’ largess, or slush fund for private wars and tax policies, and bank bailouts.
Former Republican Representative, and right wing Dick Amry and billionaire Koch Brothers are part of the brain trust that created the right wing zeitgeist known as the Tea Party, a faux grassroots political movement whose manufactured outrage on healthcare was designed to disrupt Obama’s healthcare bill, and consequently, every bill the Democratic Party introduced in Congress. The Tea Party’s subterfuge was lifted as it became increasing clear that it was a re-branding of the Republican Party.
Tea Party chapters began sprouting up all over the country to challenge and protest against Obama and the Democratic Party’s legislation, which gave the Republicans cover to just say no on every piece of legislation.
The Republicans have spent 24 months with their arms crossed, and refusing to participate in the two-party system. Complete obstruction by the Republican Party has ensured that the stimulus bill, healthcare bill, Wall Street regulation reform wouldn’t be as effective, so come the midterms the Republicans can point back to say how broken the government is, and how ineffective the Democratic Party was.
For two years we’ve had one party, the Democratic Party, governing, while the other, the Republican Party’s stratagem was to undermine any Obama legislation. The corporate media has provided aid and comfort for this stratagem by pinning the tail on the wrong donkey, and disappearing George W. Bush, and the Republican Party’s legacy of America’s Lost Decade.
The Manchurian Project
The investment class behind the Tea Party has discovered that instead of creating one Manchurian Candidate, they can produce dozens of them to infiltrate the government to enact draconian economic and social policies.
This constructed disconnect from reality is why President Obama and the Democrats can be blamed for an unemployment rate, fiscal disaster, and an oil pipe leak in the Gulf due to unregulated drilling.
Since President Bush’s legacy has been disappeared by the media, the Democratic Party shoulders all the economic fallout, and systemic corporate malfeasance from Bush’s laissez-faire governance. The corporate media provides political cover for the Republican Party as they discuss politics like a sports event. The Republicans will win because they didn’t participate in governance for 24 months, crippling it, increasing the atmosphere of hate and intolerance, all under the watchful eyes of a corporate media who wants the country to be a confederate of dunces who will vote against their own interests if they believe that it will hurt others, and sadly, they are being much obliged.
