We've Been Betrayed

Isn’t it a form of treason, really, this collective lying policy on the part of the Republicans? The Constitution which is not yet owned by them has certain clearly articulated roles for the Executive Branch, the Legislative Branch, and the Judicial Branch. The gang of five on the Court has recently ratified the sale of our election system to the corporation and now, the duly elected President and duly elected majority has been stopped dead by these legislative equivalents of Brown Shirts. They have taken a vow to uphold the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of all the people, by all people, for all people. Instead they have stopped the functioning of government for all the people. How have they done this?

Had it been done by brilliant people formulating brilliant policy, one would have to conclude that their creativity has won out, fair enough! Instead, they have created individual and collective lies which are their only policy. I saw Mr. Boehner sitting to Obama’s right on t.v. the other night. It was a joint meeting of one kind or another. The look of hatred and disgust on Boehner’s face told the whole story. They’ve made it clear; the only goal they have is Obama’s failure. Obama is our President. Hatred, thinly disguised by a veneer of political policy is my definition of fascism. Sale of the electoral process is corporatism in Mussolini’s definition of fascism. We have been betrayed by the Court operating in collusion with the Republican party. How many times have you heard this question about Germany in the thirties: How could it have happened? This is how it happened. No person or party has the right to stop the government. We’ve been betrayed.

We’ve been pretending, and I include the President here, that the Republicans have a different set of principles and policies which makes them come up with different conclusions. That would be nice if it were true but it simply isn’t. The agreement to lie is not a policy; it is a lie! Obama is a truly gifted person brought forth from us to lead us. The rest of these sneering and smirking pretenders are clever if that… but only clever if that.

We’ve been betrayed by those who have betrayed our Constitution. The Democrats are sick with cowardice and the GOP is rotten with lies. We’ve been betrayed. Why be in either party? What is the point?
