Now to give the guy the Allende treatment!
You want him to commit suicide with a sub machine gun? Well, if it would make you happy but it is so hard to arrange any more.
a. cricket
I'm finding myself a cigar tomorrow. This calls for a celebration!!
Yob tvoyu mat, Hugo Chavez!!!
If we're guilty of anything, it'd be negligence.
I find it most interesting you'd cite those reasons in any event, Slim.
Because, not *everyone* became flush with cash due to the SOB's tenure, y'know?
You almost sound as though you believed the pap as spewed by the Lamestream concerning the years '93~2000.
Most people realize we're perched a'top a HUGE bubble & one due solely to some very, cooked, books Slim.
That's the enigmatic part about the crook's success; he somehow charmed people who would never have any hope OR chance at sharing a hunk of the pie he was carving outa our constitution, our nation's security, & our culture.
All of which was plainly on the block & as such spinning-off overnight tycoons ala BSchwartz, Internet people (who never showed a profit) etc et al to the point of rediculousness.
And all along, never once did we hear the 'I' word mentioned by the Liberal-Socialist complicit Lamestream media either, eh? (inflation?)
Just *lots* of "Blue Sky."
Singin' away, "Tell me lies, tell me pretty little lies..."
As for the ending of the "Cold War?"
I'm thinking we might ALL live long enough to rue the day Reagan dared Gorby to tear that sucker down.
Over *there*, we could see 'em; they (mostly) wore uniforms, campy trenchcoats, spouted the Party Line so that the only ones not recognizable were their spies.
Now?
They live amoung us...move around with impunity & here's the insanity so sit down -- they're using the very rules of OUR Decomcratic Republic to destroy us from within.
There's not a damned thing you, I, or anyone else can do, either; for, make one move against these people & buddy you're looking at a "Hate Crime" charge.
Because just look who they've moved to the front lines to fight their Socialist war.
Think about [who] it is we're being confronted by -- the, "issues" ad nauseum.
The enemy to our way of life, our culture??
Have been decalred, a "Protected Species" for Christ's sake!!
In fact, it's even deemed unacceptable for one to even ARTICULATE just who &/or what constitutes that enemy!
Oh we're in deep kimchee, alright.
Slim?
This is bigger than the little man, Clinton.
That asshole simply, "Sold The Sizzle" to the hungry masses & they *loved* 'em.
That he menuevered those masses into a Human Sheild was no fluke or accident, Slim.
His ability to charm snakes made him no more than an ordinary salesman in the least, & an extremely good conman in the extreme.
Nothing new there, though; we all knew that already.
I'd suggest if you don't already own it, you rent a copy of, "Network" because in that one film?
Hollywierd quite inadvertently reveals for us all, our immediate future.
"Once Clinton was impeached, a 500,000 march on DeeCee wouldda forced a real Impeachment Trial and the Truth would have been laid bare...Clinton had to go!! But no, Americans couldn't be bothered to stand and be counted for justice!! LAZY!! Just plain LAZY!!!"
Look...I just watched 5 parts of a six part series called, "The Men Who Killed Kennedy," OK?
Wished to God you'd watched it, Slim -- it ran on The History Channel. {spit...}
What the Sink Emporer got away with was peanuts (as far as we know) compared to the coverup of the Warren Commission's report supposedly explaining the circumstances surrounding the assassination of a sitting United States President.
There're all kinds of people who knew then & know now that report didn't have a shred of truth in it; nevertheless, that's what we have as out *Truth* today.
My point is NOT to argue the fact(s) surrounding JFK's murder; rather, to point out how the entire nation was fed a line of BS.
Even as said nation comes around little by little 40 years later to learning the truth?
The truth moves further & further away; moreover, the truth's the absoulte drop dead furthest thing under the sun we'll ever get, by & from OUR own government!
I don't know *what* that thing called "Clinton" was...but, he was protected every way from Sunday; that was & is a fact.
"If the present American population was around in the last quarter of the 18th Century, there'd have been no American Revolution..."
I believe the ratio was thirds, Slim.
One third wanted the King out, one third wanted the King to in, & one third didnt give a damn.
You know that, too.
"...and if the same mix of folks were called upon to save the world as in WWII, I daresay we probably couldn't have found the gumption."
Maybe, but I doubt it.
Like most recently?
The Propaganda Minister simply cranked up the Stars-n-Stripes music, rolled out the band, paraded firemen cops nurses babies & puppies before a camara & the *stupid* people fellout by the thousands to go die for whatever reason(s) they've been programmed they're to die for.
Never mind we didn't know precisely who it was we were fighting at that time but by God we were gonna go take 'em out, eh?
I made a statement to you which asked, "depends what you mean by 'fight?".
The paradigm has changed; & I dare say, not changed by or for us.
Not an easy thing to get used to; let alone accept, huh.
"Forty years of creepin' Socialism will do that to a Nation!!"
We agree, here.
Only thing is?
Methinks this "creeping Socialism" was a good deal longer in the making than a mere 40 years, Slim.
In fact?
For good or for bad, these turn of events -- the circumstances which made what we've witnessed conducive to a Clinton et al?
Might just be a function of evolution; our evolution.
...& *evolution* doesn't always imply a continuation, either.
Landru, you are *on* today. At least you are onto the truth - and this just scratches the surface regarding the lies and deceptions forced upon the American sheeple. See Anatoliy Golitsyn's book, "New Lies for Old" which describes the communist strategy that is still playing out even today.
