Democracy failing in America ?

          The NEWS media is just rotting the American mind. Clearly

    most Americans - for whatever reasons besides brainwashing - support

    the war against Iraq - with very little evidence that the Sadamm Hussein

    regime -tyranny that it is - had any connection with September 11, or

    that his " weapons of mass destruction " are a greater threat to our

    national security than China's . His military is clearly organized to

    perpetuate his tyranny, not to conquer the infidel for the greater

    glory of Allah. And since when did we find two-bit dictators so

    insufferable ? Look at our record closer to home in Latin America !

     The Left here would have applauded a military action against Chile's

    Pinochet , just as one example.

          What if the United Nations judged our " weapons of mass destruction "

    UNACCEPTABLE ? We  arrogantly ask the whole world : " Are you for us

    or against us ? " What if THEY - armed with nuclear power in the future-

    are against us ?

                President Bush and his White House gang babble about God

    as much as those sickening Islamic fanatics. Where is FREE SPEECH

    in an atmosphere attuned to reactionary TALK RADIO ?

              In a country controlled by the Spanish Inquisition even the

    poor,lonely Jew will kiss the cross !

           I respect the peace movement and deplore the censorship of its

    opinions and insights. But I would like to think that those PEACENIKS

    are not just the mirror image of the TALK RADIO RIGHT .

                 The Left for more than a generation on college campuses

    has shown little respect for FREE SPEECH. It made POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

    a sort of screwball tyranny. And now - I guess - is payback time !

               But American democracy is rapidly fading into a pretentious

    illusion. Brainless people search their souls and find... a slogan !

                   Newspapers are almost as bad as TALK RADIO - but

    still a lot more literate. You can always find some unpleasant TRUTH

    between the lines .

                Also pathetic are Arab nationalists who find a hero in

    Saddam Hussein. They have the mind of a mule !

             Hopefully , at least CIVILIZATION - preferably WESTERN

    CIVILIZATION - will survive the coming Dark Age.

              To fix America we need a lot more than a regime change.

    How cocky will we be a year from now ?
