As the Freedoms of America are strangled by the “Patriotism of the Right Wing Zealots”, the Citizens stew on blatant lies from TV newscasters, and smothering reassurances of talking heads. We have “Desperate Housewives”; Ads advising that you “take what is yours”; Self-centered sabatoge of ‘reality’ Survivor series; Hamburgers so large and choked with fat they threaten your health and could feed a small family; “Fear” is a cultural motivator and teaching tool; The trifecta of Global Warming, Peak Oil, and Pandemic threaten the very existence of life on earth; We have Journalism that reeks of propaganda and offers us only the‘feel good’ syrup of ‘human interest’ stories to divert us from harsh truth; We live in a mythology of America that has divorced itself from any form of reality; and we are led by a cabal of politicians and religious fanatics striving to destroy any semblance of Democracy.
We live in interesting times.

The action, which the government says is intended to help catch terrorists and other criminals, has unleashed protests and the threat of lawsuits from universities, which argue that it will cost them at least $7 billion while doing little to apprehend lawbreakers. Because the government would have to win court orders before undertaking surveillance, the universities are not raising civil liberties issues…”

Don’t believe this for a second. The whole point is subjugation of Americans. Period.
