I finished yesterday's entry less than five hours ago at 2:00 AM but feel the urgent need to start chronicling again -- things are already that busy in the truth field. The mendacity field, too.
ameriKa is just about to do it again. You know, that stupid idiot thing that happens every four years when the sheeple enter a "willing suspension of belief" and run around asserting that such-and-such PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE is different from all the rest and is really, really going to save us?
Just the other day a close relative was asserting that getting another Republican Pezident would be a step forward because "after Obama anything's an improvement." Anybody out there see the stinking rotten position that leaves us in? Oh, sure, if somebody's a total zero, even a grade of one is better. Something is better than nothing. I'll even admit that Republican Pezidents move 5% slower than the Democrats in totally destroying civilization.
But THIS IS AMERICA, where -- finally -- "at least" is not supposed to enter the vocabulary. In America, you're supposed to go for the gold and get it -- in the areas of virtue, honor, integrity, honesty, thrift, responsibility, and through these things, prosperity and stability. We had it all, we've thrown it away, and now we're reduced to hoping that in January 2012 we'll only be up against criminals in Washington instead of cannibals. Galloping socialism for four years instead of open communism? Thanks for nothing, GOP!
I blame country vocalist Lee Greenwood in part for this "at least" view of American life and destiny. You know -- "I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free" and all that. We'll rip that jingle to shreds another time, but for now, please note its highly compromised nature!
"At least I know I'm free"? AT LEAST? If freedom is a consolation prize, the clear implication is that other things are bad wrong somewhere. They are, of course, largely because of how our precious legacy of freedom has been trashed by both major brands of politician with the sheeple basically cheering them on.
Texas gov Rick Perry is the messiah of the month. After all the System has done to deify Sally Palin and Mickey Bachman, the sheeple seem less than worked up about them -- or at least (at LEAST) they're in a frame of mind to swallow whatever comes down the pipeline next -- so here comes Mr. Texas to sweep us off our feet. Oh, he's even picked South Carolina for a locale in which to announce it! Woo hoo, it MUST that we have a trustworthy right-wing extremist to vote for NOW -- right?
Not exactly. Here's the first round of warmly welcome bad news on this faker, just in via email:
14 Reasons Why Rick Perry Would Be A Really, Really Bad President
Supporters of Texas Governor Rick Perry are not going to like this article at all. Right now, Republicans all over the United States are touting Rick Perry as the "Republican messiah" that is going to come charging in to save America from the presidency of Barack Obama. Many believe that if Rick Perry enters the race, he will instantly become the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012. Perry certainly looks the part and he knows how to give a good speech, but when ordinary Americans all over the country take a hard look at his record, they may not like what they see. The truth is that Rick Perry is a big-time globalist, he has raised taxes and fees in Texas numerous times, he has massively increased the size of government spending and government debt in Texas, he has been trying to ram the Trans-Texas Corridor down the throats of the Texas people and he tried to force young women all over Texas to be injected with the Gardasil vaccine. No, Rick Perry is not going to save America. In fact, he would likely be very, very similar to both Bush and Obama in a lot of ways.
Right now, Rick Perry is trying to portray himself as a "good conservative" so that if he enters the race he will be accepted by Christian conservatives. If Rick Perry did win the Republican nomination, he would have a great chance of winning the general election because he would very much be an "establishment" candidate.
But before Republicans get too excited about Rick Perry, there are a whole lot of things that they should know about him.
The following are 14 reasons why Rick Perry would be a really, really bad president....
#1 Rick Perry is a "big government" politician. When Rick Perry became the governor of Texas in 2000, the total spending by the Texas state government was approximately $49 billion. Ten years later it was approximately $90 billion. That is not exactly reducing the size of government.
#2 The debt of the state of Texas is out of control. According to usdebtclock.org, the debt to GDP ratio in Texas is 22.9% and the debt per citizen is $10,645. In California (a total financial basket case), the debt to GDP ratio is just 18.7% and the debt per citizen is only $9932. If Rick Perry runs for president these are numbers he will want to keep well hidden.
#3 The total debt of the Texas government has more than doubled since Rick Perry became governor. So what would the U.S. national debt look like after four (or eight) years of Rick Perry?
#4 Rick Perry has spearheaded the effort to lease roads in Texas to foreign companies, to turn roads that are already free to drive on into toll roads, and to develop the Trans-Texas Corridor which would be part of the planned NAFTA superhighway system. If you really do deep research on this whole Trans-Texas Corridor nonsense you will see why no American should ever cast a single vote for Rick Perry.
#5 Rick Perry claims that he has a "track record" of not raising taxes. That is a false claim. Rick Perry has repeatedly raised taxes and fees while he has been governor. Today, Texans are faced with significantly higher taxes and fees than they were before Rick Perry was elected.
#6 Even with the oil boom in Texas, 23 states have a lower unemployment rate than Texas does.
#7 Back in 1988, Rick Perry supported Al Gore for president. In fact, Rick Perry actually served as Al Gore's campaign chairman in the state of Texas that year.
#8 Between December 2007 and April 2011, weekly wages in the U.S. increased by about 5 percent. In the state of Texas they increased by just 0.6% over that same time period.
#9 Texas now has one of the worst education systems in the nation. The following is from an opinion piece that was actually authored by Barbara Bush earlier this year....
• We rank 36th in the nation in high school graduation rates. An estimated 3.8 million Texans do not have a high school diploma.
• We rank 49th in verbal SAT scores, 47th in literacy and 46th in average math SAT scores.
• We rank 33rd in the nation on teacher salaries.
#10 Rick Perry attended the Bilderberg Group meetings in 2007. Associating himself with that organization should be a red flag for all American voters.
#11 Texas has the highest percentage of workers making minimum wage out of all 50 states.
#12 Rick Perry often gives speeches about illegal immigration, but when you look at the facts, he has been incredibly soft on the issue. If Rick Perry does not plan to secure the border, then he should not be president because illegal immigration is absolutely devastating many areas of the southwest United States.
#13 In 2007, 221,000 residents of Texas were making minimum wage or less. By 2010, that number had risen to 550,000.
#14 Rick Perry actually issued an executive order in 2007 that would have forced almost every single girl in the state of Texas to receive the Gardasil vaccine before entering the sixth grade. Perry would have put parents in a position where they would have had to fill out an application and beg the government not to inject their child with a highly controversial vaccine. Since then, very serious safety issues regarding this vaccine have come to light. Fortunately, lawmakers in Texas blocked what Perry was trying to do. According to Wikipedia, many were troubled when "apparent financial connections between Merck and Perry were reported by news outlets, such as a $6,000 campaign contribution and Merck's hiring of former Perry Chief of Staff Mike Toomey to handle its Texas lobbying work."
Rick Perry has a record that should make all Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians and Independents cringe.
He is not the "conservative Republican" that he is trying to claim that he is. He is simply another in a long line of "RINOs" (Republicans in name only).
If Rick Perry becomes president, he will probably be very similar to George W. Bush. He will explode the size of the U.S. government and U.S. government debt, he will find sneaky ways to raise taxes, he will do nothing about the Federal Reserve or corruption in our financial system and he will push the agenda of the globalists at every turn.
Look, the truth is that another four years of Barack Obama would be a complete and total nightmare.
But so would four years of Rick Perry.
America deserves better than the "lesser of two evils".
Unfortunately, the American people have been dead asleep and have been sending incompetents, con men and charlatans to Washington D.C. for decades.
Hopefully things will be different in 2012.
Step this way please if you're willing to bite the Republican bait again. Just sign here and pull this lever for the straight Republican ticket and your Obamocracy nightmare will end. Oh, and here's you're chance to win some beautiful oceanfront real estate in Iowa!
I'll tell you what nobody else has the guts to, ameriKa. The Repubs are virtually as rotten as the Dummacrats. Sure, Bush was horrible, but "at least" he didn't throw a Monica war like Slick Willy did, only a "weapons of mass destruction" one. That's how the thinking goes, but I'm sorry, it's hopeless, because poison is still poison even if you mix in a little aspartame. We don't need another millionaire establishment Pezident from either major party -- we need a total change of heart in the direction of "just saying no" to corruption regardless of which party label it bears!
..........Indeed, I rate the Republicans as bigger traitors because people think the the R before the name means "conservative". My frustration starts before sunrise on waking up to the "Morning in America" radio show after systematically falling asleep to the Coast to Coast AM program on the same station. The traditional host, the inexcusable Bill Bennett, seems to increasingly leave the microphone in the hands of guest hosts, mostly warmongering neocons like himself. OK, today's model, Kevin Wall, didn't happen to bang the war drum, but few do anymore now that the sheeple have realized they're sick of body bags and not really in the mood for a century of them as GOP "hero" John McCain mandates.
In fact one almost doesn't feel like faulting Wall's content today. He was working to cure listeners of the notion that politicians like Obama be trusted, and -- pleasant shock here -- dared reference Bush the Elder's "no new taxes" promise as another example of it! The problem is that the sheeple are totally lacking in discernment, including about their total lack of discernment. Bushy baby didn't lie, he didn't give us any new taxes, he just raised the hell out of the ones we had!
Bush knew at the time that masses would take "no new taxes" to mean taxes would remain as they were, despite the freight-train sized loophole his very plain words left him. I knew he was playing a trick -- didn't anybody else out there? Anybody? Let me know you did, and I'll send you a nice bonus book, postpaid -- yes, a very nice book straight from the Patriot Bookstore.
As long as hearts are throbbing with anticipation over a communist stooge like Rick Perry and the "conservative" commentariat are giving such a right example of bipartisan corruption in such a wrong fashion (Bush Sr. on "read my lips"), there's no hope. Prove me wrong, ameriKa -- please! Become America again before Nov. 6 of next year. You want it -- we the antiwar Constitutionalist remnant want it -- please don't hold out on us any longer!
Oh -- in his very long career as promoter of vulgar mass culture, the seriously distracted Mr. Wall gave us the concert to free communist terrorist Nelson Mandela, Michael Jackson’s "The Dangerous Tour" Live in Bucharest, and specials for Prince, Eric Clapton and Elton John:

He's Mr. Family Values, isn't he.... the stuff that "mainstream" "conservative" radio is made of.
