preaches that they and only they have the recipe for true democracy in the world and want to cram their version of it down everyone's throat.....
has a governorship in swing states to repress the opportunity for minorities and the poor, and the afflicted to cast a ballot by creating less polling places and eight hour waiting lines...
When a country has the audacity to preach democracy and call up a non-existent problem about voter fraud and make an identitiy card so difficult to get, especially among the poor, the afflicted and minorities.....
When a part of the country closes voting place doors before hundreds wanting to cast their ballots so that they have to supplicate and shout 'Let us vote' as happened in Miami Dade county Fla. yesterday ....
And those people are mostly minority, and in a more liberal county and aren't getting to what should be a 'walk in, cross your circles and drop it in the box' sort of thing... without all the electronic rigamarole, and funnily labeled levers to pull on a machine made for monkeys... but people who have made decisions in making up their minds for how they want their country to advance for the next legislative period.....
And when the ruling class puts up billboards to scare the poor, the minorities and the afflicted from voting, as seen in the central states of the US... always in the poorest... speak minority centers of cities.
One can only come to the conclusion that that country is a plutocracy, and if it were in the southern hemisphere.... it would be known as a banana republic.
An agressive one, which wants to say to the rest of the world... 'our way is the only way'.
Well their way is instructive... but I don't think I would want to follow it. Money isn't everything.
Having followed presidential campaigns for over forty years... this was the most corrupt and disgusting, and was due to a pour-in of corporate money.
Obama didn't dirty his hands. Romey lied from morning to night, and the media, they astonish me.
'He misspoke.
It was a gaffe,
He didn't understand the question,'
Instead of just saying it outright: 'he LIED'.
Why is the word tabu of a sudden?
Romney lies all the time. It's probably why I like Lawrence O 'Donnell' He'll tell the truth or if you call him out on it, invite you to box and duke it out. But am old, and understand his concept of 'honour'.
In the end, what the country has is a choice between going on a sorta journey where the destination isn't exactly clear but sort of heads to a rosy sky, or a vision where you are in England and would never think of going out without an umbrella... or being lucky in having someone to wheel you out to vote if you were infirm, or old, or disabled....
today is the day, duckies.-.... gird yourselves, pack up the folding chair for the wait to ... oh lurd,... cast your vote, and exercise a right that should have actually taken up ten minutes of your time, not eight hours.
And take a folding chair, sit in it in line, and reflect on, if you were to be questioned by the ever circling press of journamalists, why you would think that your case represented the best system in the world, and why you would recommend it be force-fed to the rest of it as the main course.
Others never subject themselves to the process. So much the sadder.
But rest assured, you HAVE reached the status of a banana republic, and have no reason to contend you are of another status.
Unless everyone actually votes.
Have fun today.
In my country, I only need ten minutes.
That's the different, as Peter would say, would love to speak with him, but my telephone isn't back on, which means... if it doesn't happen tomorrow, I have to run about town. Which I hate.
We all have our distractions.
But will not retract. Banana Republic.
