A New Hopelessness
Okay, you knew it was going to happen but I figured they would wait until Obama possibly got the nomination. But Hillary and the steam rolling Clinton machine got to him first as she decided to unleash the kitchen sink strategy. She thought it was her and the gall of Barrack Obama to get in her way was frankly appalling. She’s like the energizing bunny lately; she keeps on running and running her Rove tactics. She wants to go to Washington like an old junkyard dog and tear all of those right wing conservatives to shreds.
So now we move on to Barrack’s minister who just happens to be black and has said some things that of course in context, that the hit machine is ramming his words down Obama’s throat that is everything he said. The contextual use of some of his speeches are twisted and turned to solicit the worst possible portrayal of him. Welcome to America, the place of hopelessness. The two minute sound bite mastered by Bush and his minions that basically has nothing to do with truth and more to do with throwing crap against the wall until its sticks or like he said “repeating it over and over” until enough people in the lemming state of mind, start believing it.
So is John McCain a traitor for signing those documents while a prisoner in Vietnam condemning America as a war criminal and calling on an immediate withdrawal? Hell yes I guess because according to this administration, torture works. But, in context, that’s what McCain said about America. And how about all of those Catholics who at the core of their religion stand on the “One Church” theory that says if your not a Catholic, you’re going to hell. You must be, because you follow the Catholic Religion.
There’s a great divide in this country and it appears that the divide and conquer rules. It’s a sad state of affairs when we no longer have any hope the greatest virtue of them all, when our primary focus is to destroy. I think Eckhart Tolle was correct to assert that we as a species must evolve or die. The egoic mind rules the day.
We enter the 21st. century with endless wars around the world and haven’t grasped the simple fact that to kill another human being is simply wrong. The ultimate prize in film was won by “No Country for Old Men” a statement of ultimate violence that reflects a sick culture bent on being scared. America has forgotten that the world is not about the “I”or the “Me”…but about us with a real hope for some sane future for the survival of this planet.
So the deconstruction has begun for Barack Obama. Hillary has sunk into the density of her egocentricity to win at all costs only to lose. The rest of the Rove crowd can just wait around and finish off the scraps. As for America, Rome will continue to burn as we search once again to look for our next victim. It is all we know right now is hopelessness.

I'm as upset as you, Strider. We have a political machine that eats and destroys people and it is fueled by the press. However, a man running for our highest office MUST demonstrate that he represents all the people. Irregardless of who outed this, it does not cast a good light on Obama. We are known by the company we keep.
Yes we do...it's the fad today...there's no judgement in the obvious, it's just there on your site...have a nice outing...
Good post. The state of our country in a nutshell, but at least truthful. Once the tug-of-war between Obama and Clinton is over, all that will be left is two candidates sitting in the mud.
I don't give today's press an ounce of consideration. In that, I didn't discount Obama until I heard him speak for myself. He has nothing good to say about America. The Democrats have overplayed their hand and the current state of mis-affairs is the result.
In my best guess, McCain will win an un-winable election. You might take some solace in that, seeing as McCain is against the torture that you implicitly loath. In the end, this is another election where Democrats should easily run away with the prize. But, due to the extreme liberal influence on the Democratic Party, a tough fight will ensue in which another Republican may find his way to the White House.
Good post!
