I hate to be political. Really. That gymnasium filled with jackals and ass holes isn't a place for my mind, but sometimes I can't avoid that work out. Politics usually trigger a long train of thought that's fueled by my issues with deception. It brings up feelings of regret and embarrassment. It makes me want to jump into a different dimension where truth is real. Where the people actually know who's ruling brothel capital hill, instead of getting fist fucked by the media. Unfortunately, I'm positioned directly in the mouth of this slut economy. Michigan.
I passed a sign the other day that said " Welcome to Michigan . Great Lakes. Great Times, " and I don't think I've ever been that tempted to swerve across 3 lanes of traffic and graffiti on state property. I wanted to write ' Horrible winters. Even worse economy'. At least when you get off a plane in DETROIT (of all places), you wont be searching for those great times and great lakes and instead can just look around at the monotone, desolate existence of a state that once created ALOT OF SHIT. Home of pharmaceuticals and those big 2000 pound things you trust your life behind when you go places... what are they called... oh ya, cars. We create cars. But we've been forgotten, lost and marginalized. Our state politicians always have the same cue cards; - say something about bringing our jobs back-. And thats it. "So and so wants to take your job and send it to China. He also wants to ravage through your village and rape all the children. Vote for me"- simultaneously, on a different channel, his competition is reading the same card. Claiming rape and pillaging and all. Ultimately, this leaves it up to the viewer to do the research. The sad thing is that the viewer usually doesn't. The viewer does about as much as congressmen did with the Patriot Act; we look at the commercial, once maybe twice, and then say 'I think I like that one better.' And even if that specially invested citizen out there wants to do the research... well, all that time spent is going to be spent finding the same garbage. Just in a more persuasive container. You can shit in two places and just because ones televised doesn't make the other pile of shit... any less a pile of shit. Its still shit. And theres no way around that.
I was speculating all this deceit while I was in the shower earlier and I realized how odd it is that we accredit "The Real World" as being the 'first reality show'. I'm pretty sure we've had these 'shows' on all day long, 7 days a week, 365 days a year on 10 or 15 different channels since CNN and news 'coverage' even started. Filled with drugs, war, violence and death. Constant turmoil. Constant drama. There's always chaos in the house; one person gets upset because the other person drank their tax money. Eventually, they all make up and have picnics and fuck like rabid dogs on top of a big pile of bored viewers... who would rather watch all this literally happen in 24 and a half minutes. Thats why "The Real World" has that title. Politics are far too indirect and 'boring' and viewers would rather watch 8 meaningless people do 16 meaningless acts and make out with each other rather than get interested in the reality that is America. I'm not condoning you to watch CNN because truly, it is fucking boring. But inform yourselves. Period. Don't let this carnival keep you from looking passed the mirrors and the clowns and seeing the actual workings. See the real puppet masters. The money laundering criminals hidden behind the title of Secretary of Treasury or director of National Economic Council. Smoke and distractions only last so long.
I am writing this in embarrassment for the vote I cast in 08'. I voted for change, for someone who spoke with confidence and instilled confidence in the American people with his anti-lobbyist, anti-war, pro economic developmental 'strategy'. What saddens me is that he hasn't done a damn thing right. He created his entire cabinet out of Wall Street exec's and a few military vets. He campaigned saying there was a '6 month withdraw' plan from the middle east, which turned into a '14 month withdraw' plan, which turned into a ' maybe half by 14 months', which turned into 'maybe half by 23 months'. And now, even with some of our troops out of Iraq, we surge 30,000 more to Afghanistan?! Almost doubling our forces over there. And economically... he hasn't done jack shit...
Enough said, I feel bad for Obama. He will go down as one of the biggest puppets since Kennedy, but worse. Kennedy at least realized how disfigured our system was, and attempted to reform quite a bit of it. However, he was killed... ironically. Wonder if it had to do anything with going against the Federal Reserves agenda...
If you want to take up anything with your representatives or congressmen about ANYTHING, I implore each and every one of you to save yourself the wait and just go to PNC. Or Citibank. And ask them what their going to do with our fucking country.
That is all.
