Enough is Enough
The Day After Election 2007 the American nation will settle down to the real war it cannot afford to lose -- even as the pseudo war between left and the right political parties continues.
Right wing pundits, many of them, are prepared to lose seats in the Congress. What will follow will be the longest election campaign in our history -- as the results of 2007 are spun in every direction -- and political fans focus their frustrations on 2008.
Our political leaders, we are told (and it's true), are focused on stealing money to stay in (or re-gain) political power. If they get the power they will chase more money. If they get the money they will chase more power.
Meanwhile globalization destroys our industry and workforce; Islam turns oil, poppies and people, into IED's; and the political will to create a green global democratic political economy remains chained to the an iron ball of debt-based monies waiting to be aroused by events.
The current events of war that recalls the Crusades, global warming that recalls the Biblical Flood, and inequalities and corruption that recall Decline and Fall of Empire, evidently are not enough. We need something worse -- and it's coming. Why isn't enough enuf?
