Does human misery come from victimization or a defective species?

(1.) Explanation one: The social matrix of the world we're born into is fundamentally a host for The Beast (mentally ill religious fanatics, astronomically rich parasites, and the KKKesque, psychotic right wing of every country on the planet). This is clearly a victim explanation, much like being an innocent child born into a defective, dysfunctional family. Said more formerly, this is the sociological explanation for our slave civilization, i.e., the American police state Dictatorship of the Rich.

(2.) Explanation two: We are victims of the power and wealth of roughly 1% of the planet, i.e., astronomically rich elites -- Paris Hilton comes to mind. Against such limitless wealth and power we (basically, the entire human race) are simply cattle on the way to the slaughter house. The evidence is overwhelming that the Haves are committing systematic genocide all over the planet. They think we need to be weaned of around two billion cattle (oops, I mean human beings). They already got a good start in Africa and New Orleans was probably just a fun experiment.

(3.) Explanation three: Lets face it; the world is chiefly made of deadweight, deadbeat, brain dead enablers and scabs, without which The Beast would have no social acceptance. We should never forget that "social acceptance" is the very life blood of The Beast (or the Haves), so the enablers and scabs (e.g., Bill Clinton's right of center army of DLC deadbeats), are the absolutely necessary putrid underbelly of The Beast. No enablers, no Beast. Oh yes, what about Obama? Obama who? He doesn't even exist. He's done about 3% of what he solemnly promised he would do during the presidential campaign, so, next to Bill Clinton, he’s probably planetary enabler number two. Lastly, please note that explanation number three is also a victim explanation. However much we may rage about it, the enablers give acceptance and power to The Beast -- and have done so for thousands of years.

(4.) Explanation four: First, we should note that we could articulate several more victim explanations, but that's of no consequence, since the time has come to look at the REAL explanation -- which, guess what (?), isn't a victim explanation at all.

OK, what follows will be vigorously objected to by many readers. but perhaps also vigorously agreed to by even more readers.

However, before entering into this, may I ask the indulgence of many of my reader friends (or whomever) that what follows may well be the end of many (most? all?) of my future submissions since for me it is the absolute bedrock account of this pitiful human carnival we all are putting up with.

The victim explanations are trash. ALL of them! Certainly they each have their role in this convoluted sitcom called the human condition (also called "consensus reality"), but in the words of my high school debate coach, they all put the emPHAsis on the wrong syLLAHble.

Here's a little background for the asserted real explanation.

First, since it’s obvious to barnyard animals that the scam of "politics" (ALL forms, ALL parties) is not only not part of the solution, it IS the problem since it was invented by and for the elites to recycle the status quo (jeez, just look at Clinton and Obama), first things first should be to turn to APOLITICAL activism when dealing with The Beast. Revolution is certainly one possibility, but there are also several non-violent ones (e.g., national/international boycotts, strikes, etc.).

The core evil of life is festering in places like the Israeli extremist right wing -- or ANY collection of murder in the name of God multi millionaires and billionaires. But what do we do with these infinitely righteous psychopaths? Well, with abundant help from suck up Bill Clinton, we allow the AIPAC to wag American Middle Eastern foreign policy like a tail. Gee, wouldn't it be a miracle if Americans got to decide our OWN foreign policy? Don't hold your breath.

Time for a brief pit stop since this list of anti American (and anti EARTH) atrocities could go on and on. But you see that's just the point. We already know EXACTLY who are the psychopaths and murderers! We know EXACTLY who keeps destroying the American economy, we know EXACTLY who keeps metastasizing the Middle East cancer to the entire planet, and we now have scientific and observational evidence piled to the moon that 9/11 was a national/international inside job.

And of course we know EXACTLY who keeps raping and murdering Mother Nature. Duh, how about fossil fuel Earth killers, retarded haters of science, and "preemptive" warmongers who use our children for cannon fodder in their money cow oil wars?

It's time for the bottom line (and maybe one of my last ones). We now know EVERYTHING about the dynamics of evil (i.e., The Beast – who they are, where they are, etc.)), and we know politics is the very life blood of The Beast, and we know ONLY apolitical solutions can save our country, human civilization, and the life and death ecosystems of human existence (as well as thousands of "innocent by stander” species), but we still keep sucking our thumbs in consensus reality, babbling about elections, political parties, and elected traitors. Since we could realistically, apolitically DESTROY THE BEAST in a matter of weeks (the power we could focus is effectively limitless), the conclusion is as inevitable as death!

We "allow" The Beast, we "allow" the miraculous Earth to be ravaged and mangled, we "allow" our descendants to have no future, we "allow" the gaggingly righteous Israeli fanatics to steal an entire country while turning Palestine into a WW2 concentration camp, etc.

Any species which would allow the criminal theft of ethical/rational nations, the murder of civilization itself, as well as its own self extinction and the suicidal betrayal of its planetary home, is not being "victimized"! The evil is as exquisitely obvious as how to deal with the evil.

Thus, there is only one POSSIBLE explanation of such infinite stupidity, betrayal, and cowardice. The human species is radically, ontologically, spiritually, existentially defective. There can be no excuse in this or any other universe, whether there is a God or whether there is not a God, for how we are dealing with the ultimate (and TOTALLY solvable) challenges of human existence.

The Beast is the God of this planet because humans are cosmic slobs bound for an appropriate and inevitable extinction.

Victims, hell! We are allowing EVERYTHING and the Earth is probably holding its breath until Homo sapiens reap the inevitable extinction fruit their pathetic defectiveness has sown.

300 more years, tops.

Addendum: I almost didn’t add this because it’s going to be tip of an iceberg (as opposed to a monograph), but I know in my quarks many readers (pro or con) are going to challenge me with being a member of the very species I am throwing into the trash heap.

Not a problem. Over the millennia, many Homo sapiens have “transcended” their species. Not physically or biologically perhaps (even though suddenly computer/android possibilities are exploding), but in ways impossible to briefly articulate.

May we go back to “consensus reality” (a good jumping off place)? Consensus reality is basically the mind set of the human species. The context for this is simply out of reach in a mere “addendum”, but it is similar to the ancient oriental intuition of “maya”. Consensus reality is a language/thought version of life. It’s what we see when we look at raw givenness “through” totally arbitrary and programmed though-forms (the Hindu/Buddhist name/rupa).

The thinking about point of view, for example, presumes to put reality into perspective (from what vantage point, one wonders). It is also the essence of what we mean by words like ego/personality. The famous “separate self” (separate from the equally famous “external world”) is the fundamental identity of human beings.

But, this is really an intelligence embarrassment since NOTHING is “separate from” reality and equally NOTHING is an island of self existent being. Sorry about the philosophical jargon and I will shut up about all this as soon as possible.

The point I am struggling to articulate is that just because you have two legs, two arms, and a head may mean you are a certain kind of life “form”, but life is n-dimensional and you may be a VERY different being beyond the relative appearance.

Any speculation about a deep connection between the profoundly defective Homo sapien species and “consensus reality” (a criminally simplistic version of the reality/universe) is beyond the scope of this paper, but it is almost certainly true that this effectively universal mind set has programmed our species to act out delusion.

Life is clearly a unity in process and eternally beyond the reach of pseudo separate selves and arrogant thought (basically, internalized language). Thought is the long arm of conditioning, but liberation is groundedness in transcendence. Only if and when the human race realizes that “awakening” (to use that beautiful word) is not that the dreamer finally wakes up from the dream but that SOMETHING MORE REAL THAN THE DREAMER wakes up from the dreamer, will the human species be free.

Some readers may feel offended that our species is being discounted (hey, ye shall judge them by their fruits), but miss the affirmation in the addendum that (however radical this may sound) our species is almost irrelevant.

I have given much of my life to try to “help my species”. However, I think that is now finally over for me because apparently our species is simply beyond help. If you could give an IQ number to a species, I think Homo sapens are down there in the 80’s (sad, sad, sad), hence I am in the process of cutting myself loose and returning to dimensions inaccessible to these defective creatures.

I feel a certain sadness that this means I’ll no longer be fighting the good fight against The Beast in general and the Israeli lunatic right wing fringe (the core evil of our desperately wounded planet) in particular, but one can go on only for so long when the ultimately evil and dysfunctional tragedies of a species are COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD, plus how to remove these dysfunctional evils are also COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD, and yet the species in general takes no responsibility for anything and simply waits (however unconsciously) to go extinct. Well, be my guest and don’t bother to shut the door behind you. Believe me, you won’t be missed.

Several human species were experimented with by evolution. Clearly the wrong one briefly survived.

Oh well, it’s a big universe and intelligence/spirituality isn’t limited to mere appearance.

Bill Clinton is the King of America's deadbeat army of enablers.

This guy just can't be real, with his glasses sliding down his nose like some pretentious political sage of the 21st Century.

And then the talk. Are we EVER going to return our country to pre Ronald Reagan, when people talked about "issues"? Reagan smirked his way to the Presidency with Hollywood mannerisms. Clinton is not a professional actor (thank God!), but he's certainly Obama's mentor (or is he Obama's "brain"), and teaches his disciple to talk, blather, babble, free associate, jabber -- ANYTHING BUT ACT.

Obama/Clinton (or is it Clinton/Obama?) are "talkers". That's what they do and that's ALL they do.

But of course "talking" is all the right of center scabs and enablers of America are willing to endure. The tragedy is that the elites and religious psychopaths of America (and its suck up "ally") are so out of touch with reality the rest of the human race has to deal not with only their unwillingness to initiate decisive action, but with their INABILITY initiate decisive action.

Clinton's DLC (his "castle") stands for Defective, Lobotomized, Cattle, and is the putrid underbelly of "The Haves". Without millions of lobotomized cattle, The Haves would have no social acceptance. One should never underestimate how much an enabling spouse is ultimately responsible for the immeasurable suffering in a textbook dysfunctional family.

Well, the United States of America is a nation-sized version of a dysfunctional family, and the "elephant in the living room" is clearly "The Haves", and the right-of-center-Clinton-DLC are the archetypal and cowardly enablers.

Basically, America has four groups:

(1.) "The Haves"

(2.) Clintonesque enablers and scabs

(3.) Pug tentacles of The Beast

(3.) . . . and all the rest of us.

This is the ultimate two-sided coin. Haves on one side and enablers on the other side. And it can't be said strongly enough that no enablers, no Haves. That's why Bill Clinton and his army of scabs is the belly of The Beast.

It's also why a politically populist or progressive "movement" in America is nearly impossible. The dead weight enablers could sink a planet. As a matter of fact, that's exactly what they are doing with their "behind closed doors" relationship with the elites. For every Rockefeller, there are probably 10,000 enablers of the Rockefeller’s.

So, hopeless?

Yes, TOTALLY hopeless -- so long as we keep playing the status-quo political game. And Obama? Well, to paraphrase the words of Martha in the movie "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?": "We'd divorce you if you existed."

No, (The Haves) + (Clintonesque enablers) = political hopelessness.

However, intelligence is acting even when you don't know what to do. And that means the only game is town is an APOLITICAL GAME.

Politics is now simply running in place. Obama gets blander and blander and blander.

The human race has reached the point that we need to create radically new mechanisms for social transformation.

Can it be done? Of course it can be done. It can be done in countless ways. What we humans do best is quantum jump out of contradictions and dead ends -- which is the status quo world we wake up to every morning.

Unfortunately, this time if we don't "rise to the challenge" we aren't going to have any second chance since the extinction of the human species is imminent (thanks to The Haves and religious fanatics).

No, this time it's "do or die". We've got to permanently transcend politics (i.e., Clinton/Obama, Cheney, the DLC, hog trough pugs, and murder in the name of God religious nut cases), and TAKE CONTROL.

Cindy Sheehan is now publicly and articulately talking about the "R" word (revolution).

Certainly not the only apolitical option, even though it is certainly preferable to 6,000 more years of deadbeats enabling The Beast.

**********************************************************************

W. Christopher Epler (Bill)

Addendum: The thing about denial is that it ultimately doesn't work. Take denial of death. Does it solve the problem, the "inevitability" of death? Of course not. It doesn't even take death out of your mind, since you have to know what to deny in order to deny it.

So millions of deadbeats (redefined as "centrists", by years of joint efforts of Bill Clinton and George Bush) live in a loony tunes world where genocidal religious fanatics and astronomically rich parasites get to do their thing with total acceptance! The deadbeats are also so brain-dead they just don't get it that the Haves and religious psychos are ALLOWED to exist.

Hey, how about doing whatever we have to do to "DISallow" their existence with radical, apolitical activism. It's time for warrior thinking! The Beast is the beginning of the end of human existence. Killing The Beast would be the beginning of the beginning of human existence

Look, its grade school simple. Are we really going to allow a relative handful (less than 2%) of astronomically rich people, plus scattered sewers of certifiably insane, murder-in-the-name-of-God "religious" people kill the entire human species and much of the miraculous Earth WITHOUT A FIGHT TO THE DEATH???

Is the evolution of our species now hopelessly bogged down in evil?

Karl Sagan, author and astrophysicist from Cornell, used to wonder if atomic weaponry would be the nemesis of most "advanced species".

A flight of fancy of sorts since whales and elephants are certainly advanced species but don't feel the need for technology (and should we patronize them for this since they aren't rapidly destroying the planet?). Is it possible that much of science and technology are actually synonyms of self destructive stupidity? A kind of short sighted greed, perhaps.

In any event, what has now TOTALLY blocked the evolution of the human species is pure evil. The Israeli lunatic right wing fringe of astronomically rich sociopaths is the absolute outer limit of evil. Similarly, so do all mentally ill religious fanatics poison the march of human civilization. And, probably most of all, the Earth's Paris Hilton's and astronomically rich parasites (and vampires -- remember, it's all really OUR wealth), necessitate convoluted social/financial structures and processes which are the "crown of thorns" or highway to hell (or your metaphor of choice) for Homo sapiens.

Maybe the wrong species got killed off during the demise of the Neanderthals.

Remember, "human" is a generic word that evolution has experimented with in actually a great many forms -- we're just the form that is still standing.

But what's the problem? Not a candy ass "religious" problem or a candy ass "political" problem but THE problem? Why is our species well on its way to going extinct? Indeed, why is it a near certainly that Home sapiens are going bye bye in the relatively near future (and taking countless "innocent by stander" species with us in the process)?

Well, the afore mentioned right wing billionaire religious nut cases would be a good place to begin, because probably no place else on the planet can you find such a marriage in hell between infinitely righteous religious sociopaths and astronomically rich elites.

However, alas, they are just a sample of evil, since evil is as omnipresent as our breath.

But what IS evil? Well, we don't have to get particularly metaphysical about this. Evil is a function of human society. It has to do with the interactions of quantities of us (or probably any advanced life form).

So there's a decidedly "quantitative" variable here. As our numbers increase, so does the complexity of our social infrastructure. And that seems to be the rub, since invisibly and insidiously the "social game rules" are conditioned into our vulnerable, biological brains.

And just here is the door to hell. This dimension can be called "consensus reality" and it's an admixture of language (always language!), the past, memory (not always our friend), and the miscellaneous conditionings of our time, place, and families (often profoundly dysfunctional).

More openly, here are the programmed religions, laws, constitutions, and "theories" we so love to worship.

In short, here is the stopping point of our species. Not atomic weapons, but the accumulated programming of years of social/psychological conditioning.

The "operational definition" of all of the above is THOUGHT, because consensus realty IS thought; hence the thing the human race does best is think itself to death.

On a positive note, words like liberation, transcendence, and Enlightenment are "mystical" (the shoe fits) alternatives to this "swallowed whole" existence. The intelligence limitations of our species are still sublimely unknown, but whatever pragmatic value consensus reality may offer, our lives don't even BEGIN until we get straight that this fire storm of conditioning that has become the "mind set" of the entire human race (indeed, the very "God” of the human race), is fundamentally, radically, and biologically arbitrary and random.

In the context of this piece, what this means that the SOCIAL GAME RULES that perpetuate the "Have's", that justify their astronomical wealth and power, and that (worst of all!) give an obscene "righteousness" to deranged right wing lunatics who so love to commit genocide for the glory of God, aren't worth the toilet paper they are printed on.

And exactly here is where our species is probably doomed since many are called but few are chosen when it comes to being true to your birthright self and finding a reality/creativity/intelligence center that trivializes millennia of evil-perpetuating conditioning. Remember phrases like, "Might makes right", "Manifest Destiny", "survival of the fittest" (translation, survival of the wealthiest), and the loathsomely hypocritical "Divine Right".

Of course these sayings (and even laws) are merely the tip of the iceberg. The dungeon is elsewhere. It is deep within the infrastructure of the collective human mind. Do we know that it is infinitely unjust that the elites spend more money on their wardrobes than most of us spend on our families in an entire lifetime? Do we know it is evil when religious fanatics try to steal an entire country and turn the lives of the people who have been living there for centuries into a WW2 concentration camp?

One response to these questions could be that we're not sure if these things are evil, but almost certainly the world DOES know these things are filthy, evil, and infinitely unjust.

However, you can know things on the "surface" of your mind that you play games with in the depths of your mind. The tragedy is that the world basically turns the other way from these evils and injustices because in the depths of our conditioning we are historically programmed to accept them. Hence, it is the deep, collective mind set that permits and justifies evil. We know better, but our "unconscious" (to use that word) "accepts" evil because we have been programmed to adapt to it for millennia.

The literally unimaginable suffering that NECESSARILY goes with the existence of Greek God like elites would make Jesus weep, but we accept The Haves (the evil) – indeed, most of us probably envy them. This is the paradox of evil. If we didn’t “accept” evil, it couldn’t exist! But since literally billions of us DO accept evil that makes us an evil species.

This is not intellectualizing or empty theory. If the HUMAN RACE said no to “The Beast”, to the “Have’s”, to genocidal religious fanatics, to the Rockefeller’s, to the Rothschild’s, to the Bush’s, to murder in the name of God subhuman filth, to Saudi Princes, etc., etc., we could destroy them in a week. And I mean “non theoretically” destroy them in a week. Remove them from the planet as in cease to exist -- now you see them, now you don’t! There are times in life you must be limitlessly aggressive. We can either watch The Beast destroy Mother Nature and our children’s future, or WE can destroy the beast. Remember, we know exactly who they are and we know exactly where they are. So what in the name of truth, beauty, and goodness are we waiting for? Certainly not for the paper bullets of religion and politics. ULTIMATE hardball is the name of this game.

Hence, looked at one way, there is great hope. Looked at another way, it is hopeless.

It all comes down to how EACH OF US deals with a lifetime of conditioning. Liberation is transcending the box. The world IS the box.

So consensus reality (the home of evil) can be left. This is called being true to ourselves, or perhaps even Enlightenment.

However, as a species, the probability that we will leave the box in sufficient percentages to "eliminate" evil is probably very, very small.

Fortunately, even though our paralyzed and conditioned species continues to equate life with a moronically defective consensus mind set, each of us is still able to stretch our intelligence/spiritual eagle wings and leave this evil box forever.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: we're the dogs -- never the tails.

We are rapidly sliding back into Bush-Land.

At the present rate, the dems will have given congress back to the pugs before the year is over.

Would that this were an exaggeration!

The dems are going belly up about everything -- just like the 2006 Congress of DLC/Clinton right wing traitors.

NOTHING radical or life and death is being addressed. Obama isn't the entire problem, since the dems are turning their backs on his agendas en masse. There are more guts in a paramecium than in the entire Democratic Congress.

So the Bush/Cheney world just keeps on trucking.

The Bankers continue to rape America with glee; the Texas energy companies continue to rape America with glee (here comes "clean coal"); the gaggle of Israeli right wing psychopaths continue to rape American Middle Eastern foreign policy with glee, and the Murdoch media still lies to the skies.

And Obama? Well, he talks and talks and talks . . .

If you didn't know better and have calendars and clocks, you would think Cheney is still God. He sure acts like he is still God.

If the dems had 90% of the congress and a president to boot, they would STILL find some way, some how, to give the country back to the pugs.

That's what they do. That's what they are. They have no identity other than people who sell the soul of America to the most loathsome filth on the planet.

But why? Why in God's name do the dems always GIVE the country to religious fanatics and astronomically rich elites?

Bottom line, there's only one thing dems do, and Obama is the quintessence of the dem soul. They talk, and talk, and talk, about things they would never do in a thousand years (hmmm, thousand year Reich?).

And the pugs KNOW this! They know this election was TOTALLY MEANINGLESS and the "The Beast" is still in absolute control of everything. They knew it before Obama was even "elected" (or appointed by Rahm Emanuel).

They also know the Chinese are right when they call us the United States of Israel, just as they know "clean coal" will be our next suicidal fossil fuel.

They also know America's middle class is on its way to oblivion (as in "camps"?).

But most of all they know our political system is the "crown of thorns" of America.

They fear ONE THING ONLY, and that is that a critical mass of apolitical activists will once and for all transcend politics and the power of the people (American and planetary) will manifest in forms that are grounded in the deep creativity of our species.

Obama = establishment politics = species extinction.

The social forces now at work on this planet have long since left the candy ass world of politics, "elections" (what a laugh!), and Bill Clintonism.

It's like some kind of sports competition that has exploded off the field into the spectators, the freeways, and the city in general.

Fantasy land is Obama is talking about “reality”. Yes, REALITY -- we must use that sun-sized word. Probably only two or three percent of the planet doesn't fully understand that the Earth is dominated by psychotic religious fanatics and multi-millionaire and multi-billionaire elites.

This is "The Beast"; these are "The Haves"; and they are the Gods and Goddesses of the Earth.

The quantum jump facing the human race is that AS A SPECIES we must realize that the Rockefeller's, Rothchild's, Paris Hilton's, and certifiably insane, murder in the name of God religious sociopaths have upped the ante far beyond status quo, establishment politics.

Obama is a fart in a hurricane. Politics IN ANY FORM is like eating ground glass.

If you cut through the smoke screen of The Beast (the Haves), what you see is as hideous as it is self evident to raw Home sapien intelligence.

What you see is total war between a handful of astronomically rich, religious psychopaths and the ENTIRE HUMAN SPECIES. We aren't fighting for our lives as a political party or even as a nation any more, and this is true for every country on the Earth. We are fighting for the survival of the human race!

Is this hyperbole? Is this over the top? Alas, in this battle for continued human existence, there isn't any top.

To say it as plainly as possible: A tiny percentage of murderous religious fools and vampire elites are literally driving the human race into extinction.

Hence the ultimate war on this planet is now between the human species and The Beast.

We could stop all this in one week if we bared our fangs -- no, even better, if we USED our fangs.

Or would you prefer systematic genocide of the working class, and "camps", bankruptcy, fossil fuel suicide, the trashing of science and education, BORing presidential babble, global warming, “inside job” atrocities like 9/11, and an American foreign policy TOTALLY under the control of vomitous religious right wing nut cases from another country?

We don't have to live like this you know. All it takes to change from a sheep to a tiger is a species quantum jump. Just imagine how fantastic it would feel to unsheathe our claws and shake the snow off the mountain tops with the roars of a profoundly endangered, but even more profoundly ENRAGED species.

All we need to destroy The Beast is the WILL to destroy the Beast. We are not slaves to elitist paper rules that corral us like cattle. We are the true dogs of human, social existence and everything else is merely a tail, and this includes every religion and social/financial institution on the planet. The Beast too exists only with our sufferance, and can be destroyed whenever it suits us.

Well, how about now? And destroy means destroy. Destroy means forget Obama’s impotent talk, and dem/pug political back room deals, and compromising with the devil, and selling pieces of our soul, and betraying our children’s future, and betraying Mother Nature, and being religious robots, and betraying our Constitutional heritage. You get the idea.

Destroy means DESTROY! Hey, these mentally ill religious fanatics and parasitical, multi millionaire and billionaire elites, and right wing, illiterate barbarians “started” this war, so let’s bloody well finish it with planet-wide ferocity! It’s time for ultimate hard ball. It’s time to stop betraying our Homo sapien birthright.

ps: Just a note to Beast types who may be wondering about odd sounds they are hearing more frequently during the night. Probably, they’re encroaching growls and snarls. Just thought you might want to know.

Obama is not now and never will be a hero; however, his status-quoism may catalyze a critical mass of American activists

Obama is a heart-breaking disappointment. He's Mr. see no evil, hear no evil, and say no evil. If Rove was Bush's brain, Obama's brain is the DLC/Clinton/AIPAC.

What are a few things we have learned about Barack Obama? We know he will never hold anyone accountable for ANYTHING during the eight Bush/Cheney horror show years.

We know it's a near certainty he knows everything about the infinite treason of 9/ll (including our back stabbing Middle Eastern connection), but since his name is Barack Obama, we also know he will never do anything about it.

We know he seems to be indifferent to the non-stop corporate fossil fuel rape of Mother Nature. He continues to allow the beauty and cornucopia of the Goddess to be reduced to road kill by Texas (that's spelled: T-E-X-A-S) energy corporations, even though barnyard animals know this suicidal form of energy (along with "clean coal" -- give us a break), is a self evident money cow for vampire elites.

Sadly, the world is increasing looking at Obama as America's latest Ruling Class President and there goes our shot at credibility and honor.

Is he better than Cheney/Bush? Certainly, but so is a cockroach and a rock.

The problem isn't that he's Bush number two (there's only room for one anti-Christ per millennia), but that his special genius is to do the BARE MINIMUM to be "taken seriously" as a responsible American President.

However, there's a potential positive spinoff of Obama's Ruling Class status quoism.

His indifference to the core issues and necessities of our planet and country may be the straw that finally breaks the back of "The American Political Dream". And this dream (really a suicidal nightmare) is that "politics" is the ultimate social mechanism for radical national change.

No, no, no, no, no. "Politics" is a game invented by and for the Ruling Class -- the same gaggle of billionaires and religious fanatics who engineered Obama's election in the first place. Ironically, it would have been much harder to manipulate McCain.

Probably some of the above is open to debate, but what is NOT open to debate is Obama's record to date. Sure, there are a few good things here and there, but it would be an exaggeration to say he has committed to even 10% of what he promised OVER AND OVER AGAIN during the campaign -- and lies are lies are lies.

Is this being negative? Not really. Facts are facts and Obama is going to be the kiss of death for America if he continues to be afraid to even rock bathtub boats.

In essence, Obama is turning out to be a nothing. He's no hero and he's no devil. He's just a nothing.

But this is 2009 and a "nothing" president is political death.

The simple truth is that America and much of the planet is literally going down for the third time. The "Have's" clearly plan to turn the Earth into a handful of Kings and Queens and around 6 billion human cattle. Genocide is rampant and the middle class is going, going, gone.

So the bottom line is what? The bottom line is the realistic possibility that the more Americans discover that the eight Bush/Cheney anti-American years are now going to be followed by four (?) years of an "establishment president" who will do the absolute minimum to save our desperately wounded country and planetary ecosystems, is the more America will mutate a critical mass of apolitical activists.

In short, it just might turn out that Obama's obedient passivity will "create the space" for politics-transcending power of the people.

One thing's for sure. The only way America will ever be saved by a hero, is if WE ARE the heroes!

*******************************************************************

W. Christopher Epler (Bill)

Addendum: Are these views premature? Are we jumping the gun here? Should Obama be given more time? Difficult questions to be sure, but that’s not the issue.

The issue is that Republican fascists combined with Israeli right wing psychopaths to gouge EIGHT YEARS out of our Constitutional Republic. Think about it. They flushed eight years of American history down their toilet to hell.

Meaning? Meaning we’ve got some hard core catching up to do and we simply don’t have the time and luxury to putz around for four more years to wait for Obama to do something (anything!) radical. Maybe eventually his conscience and rationality will catch up to him, but that’s his problem. He’s no longer in the equation.

When your house (e.g., country and planet) is on fire, you ACT! Status quoism is suicide in a life and death crisis and if there’s ever been a time in American and Earth history that the absolute and utter destruction of everything we love, need, and honor is a mere heartbeat away -- that time is NOW. This, as they say, is It.

And Barack Obama? Well, “fiddling while Rome burns” comes to mind . . .

Will Barack Obama please get off the 9/11 fence?

In a recent speech, Obama tarred al Qaeda with the 9/11 brush. And yet he's Mr. Slippery Shoes when it comes to the national/international inside job scenario.

There is no better barometer of the degree to which Obama has been bought, than how he comes down on 9/11 (same thing for Rahm Emanuel since it’s far more likely Obama was his appointment, than visa versa).

Alas, it looks like he's going to be a mouthpiece for Dick Cheney and company, who contextualize 9/11 at being at worst some minor state department ineptitude, but otherwise an atrocity totally independent of Bush/Cheney fascists and their opposite numbers in Israel.

To the question of, "What American political party and Middle Eastern ally BENEFITTED from 9/ll?" his answer seems to be . . .

And speaking of non-answers, Obama's penchant to coining empty, romantic generalizations is becoming physically painful. Does this man even know how to spell words like: ACTION and DECISION?

The pugs like to criticize the dems (i.e., closet pug) for "throwing money at things". Well, Obama's Presidential M.O. is that he throws "words" at things.

He's done at most 10% of what the promised over and over again he would do in the primaries, but he's inundated us with compensatory "speeches". Man, does this guy ever like decorated generalizations!

But he can't gas bag 9/11 forever. And if he does 100% support the Bush/Cheney version of the infinite treason of 9/11, we will know with absolute certainly that Obama is a tentacle of The Beast.

He's also Mr. Waffle on Iraq. In one breath he says we should never have preemptively invaded Iraq, and yet in his next impotent pronouncement he implies that 9/11 was our justification for basically doing ANYTHING to the Islamic world.

In our wounded and virtually dying country (which is still 90 plus percent under to domination of Bush/Cheney policies!), Obama fiddles while Rome burns.

That sense of life and death urgency that human ecosystems of humanity are going, going, gone; and the rags of our economy continue to disappear down the ravenous throats of Wall Street, Mother-Nature-raping energy companies, and banks from hell; and elaborately contrived the Middle Eastern wars (now OBAMA'S wars) continue to be money cows for the Ruling Class, and that billionaire, Israeli murder in the name of God, religious psychopaths and their genocidal right wing continue to dictate American Middle Eastern policy (as they have done via the AIPAC for decades), seems to be utterly wasted on Obama.

He's like a guy in a burning house who wants everyone to listen to twenty more gaseous generalizations as the last opening to safety rapidly turns into a wall of flames.

Obama's handful of politically correct decisions are not to be ignored (fair is fair), but it's what he's NOT doing that's tragically more important, e.g.

(1.) dealing with 9/ll -- except with more lies to the skies

(2.) instituting accountably for the last eight Bush/Cheney horror show years (torture comes to mind).

(3.) stopping wars (his general’s say no end in sight)

(4.) ceasing to cheer on the fossil fuel rape of Mother Nature.

(5.) liberating the United States of America from what China has called the United States of Israel

(6.) and much, much more.

If we go back to the burning theater analogy, who gives a rat's derriere about his BORing speeches and bone-throwing politics, if he continues to ignore and even actively tries to explain away the LIFE AND DEATH ISSUES that face our planet and country?

A thousand pities, but more and more it appears that he's not doing anything substantive and life saving, because the Haves elected him precisely NOT to do anything substantive and life saving.

I wonder how it feels to betray your own species?

For the thousandth time we see that politics is part of the problem not the solution. The solution is a critical mass of apolitical activists. Civilization demands radically new mechanisms for social transformation. Clinging to establishment politics is like clinging to a suicidally dysfunctional “family or origin”. Survival = cutting the cord. There are no other options.

Extinction or transcendence – always the cutting edge of evolution.

But transcendence is what? The inevitable question. Joseph Campbell quotes Sir Gawain in one of the 12^th Century sublime Holy Grail legends as saying, “When we seek the grail (the cup of Christ), we should go into the forest alone, not as a group, where it is darkest and where there is no path -- the essence wisdom of the western world. Note, no gurus!

The 20^th Century philosopher/mystic, J Krishnamurti put it like this, “Truth is a pathless land.”

Politics is a path, a formula, a dogma. Mankind must now leave such toys and save ourselves and our mystically beautiful planet. Obama is the past, the dead.

The human race is a self-creating miracle.

America's core unfinished business: Elite Assassinations, Wars, and Depressions.

America's unfinished business: The Great Depression (elite engineered?), Kennedy/King assassinations, Gulf of Tonkin lie, 9/11, and our SECOND engineered Depression, etc.

Of course, and alas, there's more. Remember names like Henry Kissinger (even more evil than Dick Cheney if you measure evil by the number of people you directly or indirectly murder -- plus whose first loyalties were NEVER to the United States of America).

Many of our young people don't realize that the Viet Nam War was "justified" by a TOTALLY DOCUMENTED LIE having to do with the Gulf of Tonkin. Reminds you of Bush's State of the Nation lies to "justify" his preemptive invasion of Iraq, doesn't it?

God how these fascist elites can lie!

The near certain assassination of courageous Senator Paul Wellstone is more unfinished business. Dear God, this man lived in Minnesota and he doesn't know how to fly in a snowstorm? Duh. And to make sure his voice was permanently silenced, most of his family was assassinated as well. And oh yes, his death gave the Senate to the fascist pugs which was critical for making dufus George the King of America.

God how these fascist elites can murder!

Evidence is now emerging that America's "Great Depression" was ALSO engineered. Here's just one quote, but when you pull it the fascist/elite propaganda tapestry rapidly unravels:

"(The Great Depression resulting from the Stock Market crash) was not accidental. It was a carefully contrived occurrence....The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here so they might emerge as rulers of us all." Louis McFadden (1876-1936) US Congressman (R-PA) (1915-1935), Chairman of House Banking and Currency Committee -- who was poisoned in 1936.

Please note the unique financial position of this man and that he was speaking from his erudition and conscience, not the “Republican line” and we should honor his memory as we acknowledge his assassination.

Of course there’s no question of the Kennedy assassinations (both President JFK and Bobby) and the blatantly “political” assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King. The only question is who orchestrated those infamous murders and why. I think by now we can make a very educated guess, don’t you?

Have you noticed how often we keep using the “assassination” word? That’s how the rest of the world sees us. They know (often better than we do from their “outside in” perspective) that American is 100% a Dictatorship or the Rich and that the “elites” (formerly the “aristocracy” of Kings and Queens) want working class Americans to be cattle or corpses.

However, speaking of the rest of the world (especially the Orient) they’re getting colossally pissed off that America’s elite greed and retarded religious fanatics are steadily and VERY RAPIDLY trashing human Civilization and the necessary planetary conditions for the continued existence of human beings. And we are now receiving very specific warnings that if we don’t deal with the fascist elites, the rest of the planet will do an “intervention” on us, since they have NO intention of continuing to sit by while American elites destroy all the national economies of the Earth and the very life and death ecosystems of our species.

In short, we have been warned and would do well to heed it.

The simple truth is that the human community can no longer afford the luxury of multi millionaires and multi billionionaires, ESPECIALLY that ultimately lethal combination of astronomically rich murder in the name of God religious fundamentalists

Here’s another way to say this. George W. Bush pushed the envelope of vampire greed and kill-a Muslim-for-Christ religious fanaticism much, much too far. His pinhead brain thought he really was King of the Earth and that he had the “divine right” to rob and murder limitlessly -- which is exactly what he did, much to the worry of the “wiser” elites who knew their existence utterly depended on continued and utmost secrecy. Organizations like the “Illuminati” are now unwillingly “going public” and that’s win/win for us all, since this collective virtual anti-Christ can of worms has been controlling human existence beyond our wildest dreams (or nightmares) for millennia.

But if there’s a God, He/She gave us the internet against which the Greek God like elites are defenseless. But is this really the case? Well, think of it like this. If and when a critical mass of Americans (or more probably humans in general since the elites are national/international), REALLY GETS THE MESSAGE that less than one percent of the human race has been manipulating the human condition like literal Gods and Goddesses for millennia, and that this less than one percent has NEARLY ALL OF THE WEALTH OF THE PLANET and is very probably committing systematic genocide even in America to wean down the population to the size they want (the word is they are working to get rid of two billions of us – think Africa and “aids”, think New Orleans, think unregulated poisonous meat, think unregulated pharmaceutical giants, etc.), then it is simply a matter of numbers before this collective knowledge will catalyze a titanic explosion of rage that will be heard on the outer planets.

However, the point of this piece is not the arguable inevitability of literally indescribable human violence once the elites lose their force field of secrecy, but a listing of a few core examples of America’s profoundly unfinished business.

In short, America’s skeletons are FINALLY clattering out of the closets, and ironically this is almost certainly due to the pathological religious fanaticism and greed vampire excesses of George W. Bush who pushed the elite envelope of secrecy beyond the point of breaking.

So just as Sarah Palin’s grotesque “biker policies” significantly helped to break the back of McCain’s presidential campaign, so may the blatantly public, sociopathic atrocities of Georgie Porgie break the back of humanity’s satanic elites.

Time to finish our unfinished business once and for all. Time to apolitically DEAL WITH the elites (remember “politics” is a lose/lose game invented by and for the elites).

Time for the re-birth of America.
