Obama Can't Investigate Bush
An investigation of the crimes of the Bush Administration would expose the decay that permeates the entire U.S. system. The rot pervades the political, economic, social and cultural institutions.
Currently, the Republican philosophy is the dominant U.S. philosophy. The Democrat Party exists solely to provide the illusion of choice. Essentially, the U.S. has a one-party political system. The two parties vary no more than a coat change in the middle of winter.
If one of the primary parties is destroyed, Americans might demand a second party. That second party could actually challenge the current structure, which is no different than a feudal noble-peasant system. Today, a few Americans enjoy exorbitant wealth and privilege, while the rest live in destitution or on the brink of it and one step away from incarceration. One arbitrary decision by a corporate executive or other member of the ruling class could dump any peasant into poverty.
The current political balance is praised by neo-conservatives as “The End of History.” Margaret Thatcher made “TINA” a frequent element in her speeches. “TINA” is the acronym for “There is no alternative,” a phrase authored by neo-conservative Francis Fukuyama in his book “The End of History.” Thatcher and Ronald Reagan were convinced that the natural instincts and behaviors of people meshed with the capitalist economic system creating a harmony with security and order.
To get the people to accept a wealthy and privileged class, it is necessary to create a diversion. The two party illusion controls the debate so critical to the preservation of their system. The two parties confront each other over trivial and insignificant matters to divert attention from critical issues. The media are a critical part of the conspiracy. For instance, George Bush said Saddam Hussein expelled the weapons inspectors in 1998. In reality, they left after President Clinton warned them that the U.S. and U.K. were planning a massive strike against Iraq. Neither the “opposition party” nor the media corrected this well-documented lie that was one of the justifications for the invasion in March 2003. The public had forgotten the event and trusted those other sources to inform them of any contradictions.
If our political system were like a shack on four stilts, two of those stilts have been removed by Bush and Cheney. Prosecution of Bush and his officials for their numerous hideous crimes, treachery, subversion and treason, would destabilize a third stilt and the whole structure would collapse.
In America, subverting the Constitution and committing genocide is excusable. Fondling an intern is not.
