(750 posts)The comment about Saint Ronnie was really funny, but tragically does define the culture America is over whelmed with a warped corrupt and billionaire controlled media. The real grief is the swindling politicians galore in 007 rhetoric, usually hiding behind profiteering. Intentionally want that crisp answer like yes or no at congressional hearings. Yet know the infinite reasons abound within the space between the orthogonal of a Venn decision. That can shift and vary like a Palin rifle view.
These political persons really understand the nature in life is driven constantly by advanced math that gives advanced reasoning which has an infinite in between answer. Which that forty seven percent dont understand this reasoning process to be able to seek the American dream. Conservatives today know this and exploit it. From my view Ted Kaczynski fathomed this concept and went insane. Many intellectuals understand this and idle in complicity.
Just as the American decadence honors head bashing in football super bowls, America watches empty congressional chambers on c-span. Either way nothing gets done to improving the living standards for Romneys estimate of the forty seven percent that mooch, in poverty as America boozes the opportunity to watch a pig skin bounce in a fracture field receiving total healthcare attention while half the electorate is already considered dysfunctional and screwed medically.
An even better and disgusting example was perpetrated on another channel super bowl Sunday at Fox News courtesy of governor Huckabee. In the evening governor Huckabee showed a short clip of what Huckabee considered a good reason to carry a weapon. The Indiana Jones movie might have been the Ark of the Covenant. The scene where Dr. Jones was in a market square where the very busy Arabic dressed people do business. Dr. Jones has his whip and pistol of course. A huge tall dark turbaned saint-soldier type twirling a huge crescent sword threatening to attack Dr. Jones looking for Marion that was kidnaped. Dr. Jones just pulled his pistol and shot the saint soldier. Simple, but from my view completely and ugly criminal interpretation of the utility of a pistol or the culture. Huckabee or other journalist like that should be mentally examined for insanity before being able to broadcast. This notion is an integral part in America the crazy, similarly debates about gun control, but also our media is loaded with the same insane reasoning that mental health boundaries are needed to fix the system.
Not just with weapons is seems to be prominent all throughout all areas of society, economics, education, business or government. Especially the military. There is a conclusion that less regulation could very well mean an insane society. Very Wahhabi, they oppress education. Seems to fit the Conservative of today, lay off teachers, close schools, and reduce school maintenance. These are all the fundamentals to destroy America without dropping a nuclear bomb. Very Wahhabi !
