The Simple People of America

The era of George W. Bush will be an interesting period for history. The master villain he created will emerge as a martyr and hero for the billion Muslims of the world. Bush will become a joke, an object of shame, an adjective for incompetence, ignorance, heartlessness and treachery. He will be cited as the epitome of what is endemic, evil and wrong with capitalism, Christianity, unbridled greed and gluttony. He likely will be the symbol of 21st Century decay and human pathology.

Osama Bin Laden, on the other hand, will become the David that took on the snarling, dimwitted Goliath, crippled it and ultimately caused it to collapse into a writhing heap of bloated decay.

The simple people will be forgotten as the nonentity that they were. They never rose above the primitive animal herd level. They accepted without question, and often with enthusiasm, slavery, homocide, genocide, fratricide, eugenics, torture and mass incarceration. Genetically, they were incapable, like their British ancestors, of developing a conscience. They never could distinguish right from wrong, civilization from savagery or maturity from immaturity. If there is a heaven, none of them will be there.

Homosexuality epidemic

There seems to be a homosexuality epidemic ravaging the Republican Party. it is a particularly virulent strain that has brought down Republican ministers such as Ted Haggard as well.

What is the source of this tragedy? Larry Craig, Republican senator from Idaho and latest victim of the outbreak, blames the media. Democrats lack the imagination to do it. That leaves Bin Laden, God, the French, Dick Cheney and the 2001 anthrax perpetrator as the most likely culprits.

Until we identify and control the source of the epidemic, we need to take precautions to protect our male children. We need laws requiring all Republicans to warn all neighbors within a five block area that there is a Republican living in the neighborhood. Also, all public mens' restrooms must have lights flashing and sirens sounding anytime a Republican is using the facility. Public parks must have signs warning that Republicans could be roaming the parks.

These precautions will not protect all innocent victims, but they will provide some security until an antidote is found--by the private sector, of course.

Ali BushBush and the 40 Traitors

George H. W. Bush, the father of the current president, was involved in a plot called the October Surprise. The October Surprise intended to undermine President Jimmy Carter and throw the 1980 election to Ronald Reagan. The plot called for a secret deal with Iran, a nation on the State Department’s terrorist list, to buy weapons and military equipment parts. In return, Iran would not release before the elections hostages it had captured from the U.S. embassy during its 1979 revolution. The “hostage crisis” was an embarrassment for the Carter Administration. President Carter also was negotiating for release of the hostages. If the release came in October, he could count on a swell of national pride to sweep him into a second term.

If the Carter plan worked, it would be an essential part of his job even though it could be considered political and somewhat improper for him to use the situation to gain reelection. It was not illegal.

For the Ronald Reagan team to do it would be treason and subversion of the Constitution.

The hostages were not released in October. They were released within 12 hours of Reagan’s swearing in ceremony. Two months later, U. S weapons and military parts began arriving in Iran. Reagan betrayed his oath of office the moment he took it.

Several years later, Ronald Reagan went on TV and confessed to his part in selling weapons to Iran. Instead of being impeached and tried as a traitor, the Moths (members of the herd) praised him for being forthright. President Bush pardoned the Reagan Administration officials who were involved in the Iran arms deal subverting the justice system and avoiding wide public exposure of the treasonous acts. “Keep the dummies dumb” is the cardinal rule of U.S. rulers.

A recent BBC documentary addressed a 1933 plan by U.S. business leaders to overthrow the U.S. government. Franklin Delano Roosevelt had just entered the White House, and many business leaders believed he would lead the nation toward socialism. They saw no reason why the voters should have a say in how the nation conducts its economic or political affairs. For them, democracy is just an illusion to help calm the masses. The coup plans failed when the plotters called on a true patriot to lead their conspiracy. The loyal American was Smedley Butler, a Marine Corp Major General. He exposed the plan, and America avoided a revolution that would have united the U.S. with Nazi German and Fascist Italy. Prescott Bush, the grandfather of the current president was a crucial member of the plot. Ironically, Prescott Bush’s retarded, sociopath grandson executed a successful bloodless coup in 2000.

The Bush family has a long history of treason, subversion, sedition and un-American activities and plots. So it should come as no surprise that George W. Bush united with a band of traitors called neo-conservatives and ushered in the Third Millennium with a bloodless coup. This was a message to the world that civilization will not arrive in the current millennium. The U.S. has dragged the world deep into the middle of the second millennium.

The Bush coup became possible when he united his Bushies, a particularly incompetent, insidious and unscrupulous bunch, with the neo-cons who had a core membership of about 40 fanatically conservative, unpatriotic men and women. The neo-cons, “the crazies” as they were known in some bureaucratic circles, were a band of misfits, mostly Jewish, who had little link with reality and a strong loyalty to Israel. They tended to develop a philosophy then invent “facts” to support their guesses. It was their guesses that led to the quagmire in Iraq. Their desire to have the U.S. fight Israel’s wars clouded any analytical ability they had. In general, the neo-cons are well educated. They are vastly overconfident. They understand the Moth mind. They have a lot in common with the Bolsheviks who took control of Russia in 1917. They hold or held influential positions in the media and government. Bill Kristol, the most influential, had his own publication to disseminate the group’s distorted ideas. The core of the neo-con philosophy is that the strong have the right to rule the weak, and that the weak are at a three-year-old mental, moral and maturity level. Social order must be maintained even if the rulers have to lie to the ruled. Such lies are “noble lies” since they are told for the good of society.

The coup was easy since U.S. traditions of law and order, justice, democracy and equality are nothing but an empty shell. The ruling structure is closer to that of the Soviet Union where democratic elections were held and a democratic government elected. However, actual power rested in the Communist Party’s Politburo. A Politburo also rules the U.S., but its existence and composition are well concealed.

In the 2000 election and the invasion of Iraq in 2003 every institution seemed to betray the values on which the nation was founded. In reality, they merely took their orders from the rulers, the U.S. Politburo. The masses are unable intellectually to distinguish democracy from oligarchy. When Bush said he was the “decider,” few Americans caught the insinuation that he had usurped the legislative powers of the Congress. Bush didn’t have the intelligence or desire to pretend that the U.S. was a democracy as his predecessors had done.

The Moths

Most people will go through life as Moths, the acronym for "members of the herd.". They will follow the rules of the herd and never become an individual. They can never be patriotic in the United States because their most powerful loyalty is to the herd, not to the broader ideals of the nation. Loyalty to the nation is so remote it generates little attachment. What these people believe is patriotism actually is jingoism.

From 2001 to 2007, the Republicans controlled the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. They rubber stamped whatever the president wanted. Rubber stamp Republicans reflected at least two major herd instincts. First is unquestioning obedience to the herd alpha. Second is group pressure. Moths will subordinate their own conscience to that of the herd of herd alpha. In other words, they have no ethics of their own or moral screens to direct their actions. America would have been better served by a Congress of monkeys with yea and nay stamps. The monkeys would have worked for less salary, probably just bananas, and benefits while doing a better job.

The current field of presidential candidates is representative of the Moths in the nation at large. All those who were duped by a morally retarded dummy into voting for the invasion of Iraq were responding to their Moth instincts. That means only Kucinich and Gravel qualify as enlightened citizens on this issue in the Democratic Party. In the Republican Party, only Ron Paul qualifies as a person with a mind that is not herd controlled. Those who voted to fund the criminal war after it started also are Moths.

The Moths' herd instincts render them incapable of determining that the war in Iraq is criminal. They hold fellow herd members to low or no standards while holding all others to high standards. The invasion of Iraq was just like Hitler's invasion of Poland in 1939. Moths can believe the invasion of Poland was criminal while believing their own invasion of Iraq was justified. The Moths fell for similar deceptions leading to the U,S. invasoin of Vietnam. They were duped by similar fabrications 40 years later because they are incapable of learning from past mistakes. Moths have a powerful urge to stampede, and they don't particularly care about the direction they are told to take.

George Bush could not have been elected elected president in a democratic nation. Yet he claims he is fighting for democracy in other nations. He can't understand the hypocrisy in this statement. He is good friends with several dictators. He can't understand the hypocrisy in this position. As a Moth, his brain is incapable of functioning analytically. His brain is incapable of reason. All his brain can do is respond to emotions and visceral urges. He frequently admits that he responds to what he feels in his gut. This is a classic Moth response.

The vast majority of people can rise above the Moth level. They can learn to think on their own. However, nobles and rulers need ignorant masses or peasants. They spend a lot of time and money deceiving and manipulating the masses. As long as the masses function at the Moth level, they can be controlled and exploited by a few nobles and rulers.

Jane Fonda and the Denial Heap

Clinical studies currently under way indicate that war has a guilt purging effect. This indicates that guilt accumulates in the subconscious sector of the brain. As the guilt heap grows, it needs an outlet. In conservative minds, a simple outlet is necessary. In more primitive times, something such as a scapegoat served this purpose.

As most of us moved away from the farm, new forms of release were necessary. One of the best examples is the blame placed on Jane Fonda for the sins of the Vietnam War. The brutal, barbaric actions of the U.S. using the most horrendous weapons available indiscriminately on innocent men, women, children and babies generated monstrous amounts of guilt. Primitive and pagan societies commonly used transference ceremonies. Modern pagans use Jane Fonda to rechannel their Vietnam War guilt.

Unable or unwilling to admit quilt, or even to understand the extent of their monstrous actions, the guilty parties usually search for a simple alternative and punish it excessively. They are unable to comprehend the complex events that created the guilt in the first place.

A modern example is Hillary Clinton. No one can explain their bitter hatred for her. There is no basis for the hatred. The guilt from the baseless attacks on her and her husband needs its outlet, and she is the most convenient target.

Males are most in need of sin-eaters. They seem to prefer females as the transference target. Transference targets almost always are something weak or inanimate such as a voodoo doll. The transference also can include races of people which can become as harmful as the original sin or worse. The guilty parties whip themselves up into a fanatic frenzy as they self-righteously attempt to eradicate the imaginary guilt. This tactic was more common among savages, but it remains a powerful instinct among many today who have not developed reasoning, analytical minds.

Thugs Seldom Make the Best Presidents

Most Americans prefer the candidate for political office who is the most thuggish. That is even truer for their president. They also lean toward the candidate who is the most insane. During the Cold War, only those who vowed that they could incinerate all life on earth were considered for the highest political position. Only a person who had gone mad would do such a thing. The candidates had to convince most American voters that they were insane. They called the political philosophy MAD or mutually assured destruction. Strangely, total annihilation brought a feeling of security and comfort to most Americans. The madness was vividly described in the movie “Dr. Strangelove.” In the end, they were.

Ronald Reagan contributed to the fall of the Soviet Union, but not in the way most think. When Americans, aided by some acts of sedition and treason, installed Reagan in the White House, fear filled the bodies of Soviet leaders. Reagan called his wife Nancy “mommy.” Reagan was an infant in an adult body. He was crazy enough to launch Armageddon. The Soviet leaders decided it was better to be a capitalist than a burning radiated ember.

Richard Nixon also had gone mad by the end of his term. He talked to pictures on the wall and made Henry Kissinger, a Jew, knell down and pray to Jesus with him.

George W. Bush probably never was sane. His mother taught him that force was the only tool that could bring obedience, discipline and order to a society. Force needed to be used on foreign as well as domestic populations. Like most presidents, he is not capable of diplomacy or negotiation. Striking out with brutal force is his only option.

Thugs notoriously have little or no perception of the future. Their actions almost always bring twice as much reaction back on them and their nation. Eisenhower toppled the democratic government of Iran. He prevented North and South Vietnam from reuniting. Both those decisions had detrimental consequences for the U.S., and Iran continues to be a major thorn in the side of the U.S. George Bush’s bumbling actions will have consequences for centuries.

While the insane thug may seem like the person best able to keep us secure now, that rarely is true for the long run. The madman theory claims potential antagonists will avoid someone who seems to be crazy. The madman goes away eventually, and the opponents have had time to plan their revenge. Unfortunately, those who seek the protection of the madman seldom remember what the madman did.

All in all, it's best not to elect insane thugs to political offices, especially the presidency. We need to stop doing it now. We should start electing people who are capable of distinguishing right from wrong such as Dennis Kucinich and Ralph Nader.

Loyalty ot the Alpha or Loyalty to the Ideal

Authoritarian personalities have the natural inclination to follow the herd alpha leader mindlessly and blindly. These instincts are counter to moral and civilized behavior. Consequently, conservatives almost always end up as criminals and social pariahs. Their salvation lies in the fact that they are the vast majority of the people. In the U.S. they make up about 90% of the population.

Rush Limbaugh, right-wing radio talk show host and epitome of the authoritarian personality, once stated that all drug abusers should get an automatic 20 years in prison. When Limbaugh was caught abusing drugs, he quickly changed his high-mined attitude about punishment for drug usage. His listeners, who were devout advocates of his pre-larceny position, suddenly made an exception when their alpha became the perpetrator.

Ronald Reagan claimed to be a staunch defender of law-and-order. Then he was caught selling weapons to a terrorist nation, an act of treason. He went on television and confessed to the crime. His flock of followers fully forgave him and allowed the worst U.S. crime of the 1980s to go unpunished. A decade later, these same flock members would bleat “rule of law” incessantly demanding punishment for a president who was involved in an act of consensual fondling. The “opposition” party quietly cut a deal with the Reagan Administration and overlooked a premeditated, blatant act of treason. In the minds of Democrats, it was better to overlook a heinous crime than to allow the seeds of doubt in the system to be sown. “Dupe the dummies” is the common goal of both parties. Don’t let the people discover that their government is not just, honest or democratic.

When the American herd was attacked on Sept. 11, 2001, herd members prompted by their alpha leaders said the attack was unconscionable, barbaric and criminal. When their alphas launched an unprovoked, unwarranted attack on Iraq in 2003 leading to the deaths of nearly 1 million people, the herd members were unable to see any fault, let alone a crime.

A concrete law of the herd is to follow the alpha mindlessly and blindly. The herd members are not comfortable with democracy. They prefer monarchs, autocrats, kings, dictators, tyrants and totalitarians. They claim this unquestioning devotion is patriotism. In reality, this loyalty is jingoism. It’s herd behavior, not human analytical response.

The herd behavior is strongest in times of fear. Fear activates and nourishes the reptilian brain. The most important tool of the dictator, oligarchy, nobility or other minority ruler or rulers is to activate the reptilian brain and keep it dominant. When “Godless Communism” collapsed in 1989, the rulers floundered around to find an “ism” to replace their best source of fear. It didn’t take long to find “terrorism.” George Bush’s primary job is to stoke the coals of fear. Every speech includes this “they’re gonna’ git you” drumbeat.

Fear lives unbounded in people who have not developed what is commonly called the conscience. The conscience exists in four general stages. The mature conscience is the most advanced. Those with a mature conscience are able to apply logic, analysis and reason to every situation. They seldom fall for fabricated fear dreamed up by their rulers.
The next stage is the retarded conscience. It swings between enlightened and primitive instincts. Fear easily moves it to its primitive state. Next is the atrophied conscience. It remains at the stage it was at birth. Finally, there is the deformed conscience. The deformed conscience is found in brutal, psychotic leaders such as George Bush, Dick Cheney, Adolph Hitler, Saddam Hussein, Leopold II and Joseph Stalin.

All normal brains, i.e. all but the deformed, can be reconfigured to function at the mature conscience level. This is a long and arduous process taking five or more years and must be after age 26. Thus, only a handful of people achieve the mature level in their lifetime. It’s no more than 8% of Americans. That 8% saw right through George Bush’s manufactured justifications for the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Bush’s criminal act of aggression will never be clear to the atrophied brain or the deformed brain. Those brains are incapable of comprehending that the 1 million deaths caused by the invasion is a far worse crime than the 3,000 deaths that serve as the pretense for the invasion of Iraq.

The mature conscience measuring rod tells us that humans are a long way from civilization.

The Bloodless Coup

A recent BBC documentary addressed a plot to overthrow the U.S. government in 1933. After 12 years of Republican control of the government implementing flawed supply side economic theories, the stock market had crashed and the nation plummeted into the Great Depression. The voters ousted the Republicans and put Democrats in control of every part of government except the Supreme Court. Many Republicans believed the nation was on a path to socialism, so some of them decided they had to change the outcome of the elections. They began planning a revolution. The plotters wanted a Fascist government like those in Italy and Germany, which they believed naively would restore the economy. Fascism, a merger of the state and business interests, seemed to be working in Italy and Germany.

The plotters included wealthy executives of top U.S. corporations including Prescott Bush, the grandfather of the current U.S. President, the DuPont family and executives in GM and several other corporations. Chase Manhattan Bank would manage the funds. The traitors selected a patriotic name for themselves: "American Liberty League." The ALL was ready to assassinate the president, install a strongman as a coexecutive, or recruit and arm hundreds of thousands of WW I veterans. The plotters chose General Smedley Butler to lead the coup since he was popular with the troops. Unlike members of today’s officer corps who are undistinguished, unimaginative, unthinking, jingoistic sychophants, Smedley Butler was a true patriot. He was a Marine major general and willing gunslinger for corporation aggression and plunder in third world countries. He had undergone an epiphony and realized the evil in his role and that of the corporations. Butler exposed the treasonous plot to Congress.

What happened next was very telling about the U.S. system of government, its representatives and its people. The Democrat committees held hearings and whitewashed the whole event claiming they could find no direct link to Fascism. The greatest act of treason in U.S. history, after the Civil War, and Democrats proved to be too skittish and cowardly to do anything about it. The roots of liberty, justice, equality, democracy and ethics still had not taken hold in the U.S.

The greatest irony of the whole incident occurred 67 years later. The retarded and sociopathic grandson of Prescott Bush, his criminally insane sidekick and a group of 40 accomplices, mostly Jewish, executed a bloodless coup. The Congress and American people, still oblivious and clueless about the text and spirit of the U.S. Constitution and the nation’s traditions and principles, failed to recognize that their government had been overthrown and replaced by a deranged man obsessed with killing (he held the record for people killed by a U.S. governor) and a bunch of “crazies” as the Central Intelligence Agency referred to his cohorts. To this day, most U.S. citizens have not figured out what happened.

We can blame the insidious proclivities of the wealthy and powerful. We can blame the naivete of the people. We can blame the corrupt political parties and national institutions. Ultimately, we must lay the blame at the feet of the ignorant and stupid people. Bush’s 40 accomplices, known as the neo-conservatives, claim people are inherently ignorant, and childlike and function at an animal level. Like animals, they must be closely controlled and watched or held on tight leashes. An abundance of pens or prisons are necessary. Otherwise the people will cause chaos and disorder breaking down social order to the detriment of all of society.

Are the neo-cons right?
