On Bush, War, Fair logic, and Christians...
Tuesday, March 08, 2005This was inspired by the site of Brad, which I discovered through theworldaccordingtonome The comments on these sites are more serious than the following piece.
America, George W. Bush, The War on Terror. Even at the furthest tip of Africa we feel the effect of, take your pick, American Imperialism/American Aid/American Values/American Consumerism/ American Comedy. With the growing realisation and evidence of American Pie-fingering, and the collapse of Communism as we feared it, the difference between the 'good guy ' and the 'bad guys' is becoming less clear.
The easiest target for ridicule is George W. Bush. Let's face it, he's no Mark Shuttleworth (Rocket Scientist, in South African!). He has mounted his own 'War of Terror' on the English language, and his folksy attitude makes us all feel safe at night, because maybe there is not too much pontificationating going on at the White House. Is that Langley in the shadows of the Oval Office I see?
So is Bush all bad? Is he the lesser of two evils, I have no real informed clue, but here are some thoughts:
In most Political races, as in America, there is usually a choice between 'Bad' and 'Worse'. There is a very simple reason for this: To want to create a career in politics, and then to succeed to that degree, you need to have a certain personality. The defining characteristics would tend to be arrogance, a monstrous ego, a blinkered moral view and drive, a skin as thick as the Great Wall of China, and the ability to kiss the butts of the right people, who are usually self serving fools. This is an odd dichotomy of Master and Servant. One could say a dysfunctional personality would be a huge advantage. This would be especially true in the States where the President is under-paid compared to the men seeking favour and to influence policy, i.e. Big Business Leaders.
With this as a starting point for the majority of elected leaders, (Not all, I have met, and read of, some exceptions, like our Favourite Son) it is no doubt that we are constantly choosing the lesser of two evils.
So let us assume that G W is the lesser (d)evil. What type of president is he? I think that it is safe to say that as a business man, Governor and President he is a deligater. (In his case this may be an absolute God send!)
We can argue this point at some other time, I will haul out my references at some stage and write a piece on this.
So where does this leave the free world, who is at the helm? When comes to the internal politics of the USA, I have no clue who he sends the job cards to, and frankly, even less interest. All I can say is they are doing fairly well compared to the rest of the world. When it comes to Foreign Policy, I have my suspicions. There is a strange consistency in the scope of American influence in world history.
Quick, a Pop Quiz!
What is the one clear link between:
Democratic Republic of Congo (formally Zaire), Panama, Iran, Iraq, Columbia, Angola, etc etc?
What links Saddam, Osama and Manuel?
Yes, there is a clear link - CIA sponsorship and sanction at some time in history. The lesser of many evils in each respect? Someone thought so, or they had great prescience in creating a future for themselves.
Once again, I will supply references, but from my personal point of view, I have met the bastards in far to many places for it to be a co-incidence.
So, if there is a foreign policy that is hammered out by the CIA, who is the CIA? Remember that class bully that was sexually dysfunctional and had a really sadistic streak? Remember the nerd with no sense of the real world, but enough theory to solve the world's problems, but only in theory?
Well that's them. Only this time they have guns, money and an evil master plan. Oh yes, and the most subversive of secret weapons, Fox Network.
This sly Fox ran a very powerful network, and he and his friends convinced over 60% the American population that one or all of the fundamental pieces of mis-information used to promote the war, were true.

Study: Wrong impressions helped support Iraq war
There are many other sources to this, to go back to first principles is too time consuming for this arena. I will for money, though.
So now we have the CIA all over the place. They even cropped up at Wouter Basson's trial, in sunny South Africa!
CIA, anthrax, Wouter
But, where are their offices, you may argue. Well, they are there, but you cant just go around sticking up CIA offices, so they use front companies and American Aid Groups, such as Christians in Action. (CIA, get it) I have bumped into the characters in many distant and diverse places, and believe you me, they wern'tt site seeing! The conversion ratio was high though.
So now we know, it is the 'Christians in Action' who link all these countries and people, and they dictate foreign policy.
So, if you are a small third world country, a terrorist harbouring nation, a follower of Islam, be very careful of the Christians.
And don't forget, G W Bush is a Christian, so be careful of Bush.
And so maybe, since he's a Christian, and Christian's front the CIA, maybe, just maybe, G W is not so stupid, and is in charge after all. Beware, G W might just be the man with the (evil) plan!

I'm 99.9% in agreement, except for the statement that W may not be that stupid. He is that stupid. He ran the Texas Rangers into the ground as owner ... what makes anyone think he could run the country? Everyone knows our internal policy is run by Insurance, Tobacco, Stock Brokers, and Alan Greenspan.
Jarret sucks.
Hell, Jeb Bush would have been a better choice than George.
The CIA is a political instrument, thus is subject to corruption and partisanship. I think instead of the CIA, maybe we should have private intelligence companies spy on everyone. Whoever has the best intel gets paid.
