The so call Real American for Truth, now dubbed RAT-is truly a card caring member of  the Ku Daily Kos Klan. He, or She isn’t interested in dialogue, comment or free competition for ideas.

He, or She; can’t even write their own articles; can’t do much but post old articles or plagiarize other’s work; and must be a product of the public schools.

I believe, unlike the Ku Daily Kos Klan, that everybody should have a voice. Perhaps the Rat should find the intellectual ability and academic skill to actually express a legitimate point of view.

It’s doubtful that the fall election will be decided on facts and ideas; and more likely it will be decided on finger pointing, vilification and mud slinging. All three of the remaining major candidates have plenty of skeletons in the closet and opportunity to slash and burn each other is rife.

I personally find the three remaining major candidates undesirable. I refuse to cast a suckers vote for an undesirable and am not interested in sniveling, whining, foot stomping, paranoid delusional untruths presented as legitimate campaign fodder.

Therefore the key to winning the fall election is the fine art of vilification and blame in sufficient amount so as to destroy your opponent without alienating the press and voters to the point of no return.

So, how much muck will the market bare this election cycle? Stay tuned.

When market forces play out and capitalism does what capitalism does, make money, people stretched to what they feel comfortable paying to live scream “Ouch!”

How dare those people who own the oil fields charge what the market will pay? I mean when 150 million middleclass Chinese become 300 million middleclass Chinese and want to live the middle class life, how dare they bid up the price of crude oil for their 600 million beautiful and satisfying cars and SUVs?

Buying and paying for what you want is the middle class way of life whatever your ethnicity, color, religion or nation of origin.

So, those middle class Chinese and Indians and booming capital market people want what we want. And; they can pay for it.  When you auction off resources, those who can pay the most usually get the resources.

What we’re seeing is capitalism in action. Capital is going where there is money to be made. If I want the gas, I pay the price. So does everybody. Sniveling about it helps nobody.

A suckers vote is where you vote for the lease evil of the candidates.

If you are one of the millions of people tired of voting for the least nauseating of political evils like:  John, Obama-Pan or Hillary-welcome to the anti sucker’s vote page. I do not recommend holding your nose and pulling the voting booth handle. To do so is to cast the suckers vote.

Maybe you can’t find a major candidate you really like. It is getting harder to do after all. Smug pundits and fat-cat big party bosses are hoping that the stench of the candidates will not stop you from voting for their nominee.

Aren’t you tired of suckers choices?

I am.

It’s about some months until the Fall 2008 election. The big question is: how badly has the Republican Party crippled itself? The answer is blowing hard across the pages of history.

Remember the images from the first gulf war of endless precious oil fields ablaze and needlessly burning crude oil without generating any power useful to humanity?  When I look at the Republican party today I see needless damage, waste and outright pollution.

 Smart Democrats know that the electorate isn’t excited about the slate of Democrat candidates. They know that voters are sick of Republicans. Even James Carville admits that.

 So, while Republicans wander in the desert looking for a Moses like candidate to lead them out of exile Rudy, John, Fred and Mitt lead the primaries in practices detestable to the faithful.

 The Lord seems to be preparing a whirlwind to teach the faithful not to stray from the road of salvation, and her name is Hillary, or maybe Obama Pan. At this moment it seems that the election is Obama's to loose. The Republicans are like the prophet Elijah who ran off into the desert and prayed that God would let them die because the mean Democrats were mean.

 John

I expect to see Obama-Pan put on his green tights, yield his wooden sword and confront the evil Captain Ahmadinejad-Hook with a typical Panish pose.  “I am the Pan!” Obama will yell.

“ I am the 13^th Imam!” Ahmadinejad-Hook will yell back, “ And here is my thermal nuclear weapon! Stick this up your infidel bum!”

As a mushroom cloud develops over Washington D.C. with the words “ Courtesy of Iran,” billowing in the clouds, the Pan can not understand what has happened. “ Perhaps fairy dust will help.” But alas, all the fairy dust is gone.

Arnold Schwartzenegger, California’s prince of the so-called Republican party, represents all of the reasons I’m on the outs with the republicats. He supports gay marriage, abortion, big government, more taxes and cut and run international isolation relations. He wants to put California, the republicat party and the rest of the U.S. on the path of death in the same way Europe is in decline.

Perhaps the new Republicat Party should adopt the mythical but extinct sabertooth tiger as their animal mascot. It was a mighty and feared animal but is extinct, or on the verge of extinction.

John McCain, the Republicat standard bearer for the fall is a deeply flawed candidate for fiscal, social and Christian conservatives. When the press turn on him and his wife-which will happen-he’s likely to explode. He’s also a whore to big political money and influence. Gucci tracks are all over his head, back and backside.

So, there are three foul candidates for the fall as of now. John, Obama and maybe Hillary.

Sick, Sickest and Sicker. Do I throw up now or later.

John

His wife, a grown woman; highly and prestigiously educated in the Ivy league; can say outrageous things and she gets a pass because she is too fragile to take the heat for her opinions.

He doesn’t really stand for anything; hasn’t done anything that wasn’t handed to him on a silver platter; and he snivels when people point out glaring inconsistencies and inaccuracies.

Has democrat America been overcome with pixie dust? Do they really think the world can be led like the Lost Boys? Do they really think that America’s enemies are as incompetent as Captain Hook?

I keep waiting for Obama to put on the green tights, wield his wooden sword, stab the air and declare: “ I am the Pan!”

God help us.

John

I don’t care for Obama as a candidate. I keep running into the observation that there is a double standard for him. He can sit under the spiritual direction of a racist, America hating, white hating man; call that man his surrogate father; and the press gives him a pass.

Just as capital goes where there’s money to be made, Labor goes where there’s money to be made. That’s why there’s millions of undocumented aliens in the United States; tens of millions of Philippines citizens working around the world; and millions of the best and brightest medical doctors and engineers from the around the world flock to the west.

We need to stop thinking about Capitalism and socialism as we did thirty or forty years ago because capitalism and socialism have had intimacy, exchanged DNA and birthed something new.  Whatever this new thing is-and it’s not classical Neo Conservatism-it is potent and unruly.

Lord knows we hate to change, yet the reality of our ever changing economy, society and international situation demand change.

The United States is learning how to cannibalize the leftovers from the industrial revolution and invent something new and profitable. The same is true in other western countries. China and India are having their own industrial revolution and thinking big while watching the West and planning for the future.

Neither John McCain, nor Obama, or Hillary can stop this process. Whoever gets the nod. If they’re smart, will prepare the people for the future shock that is coming.

John

Working class Americans are mad. After years of preaching economic self sufficiency and capitalistic enterprise, those darned Chinese and Indian middleclass people are working hard and doing what capitalists do- buy. They’re buying crude oil, food supplies and whatever else makes them feel happy, just like us.

Now, gasoline may very well hit $5.00 a gallon by December, the cost of food is up and up. And vacations to our favorite familytopia cost more and more.

Truthfully, it’s no conspiracy, it’s just capitalism.

Farmers in Argentina are building agricultural powerhouses and amazing infrastructure that can and will beat the pants off of American farmers. The same is true for industrial and technical infrastructure in China and India.

Guess what America, things have changed. Unfortunately, few promises from presidential candidates will actually take us back to the days of easy dominate capitalism. Capital flows where there is money to be made. In Mumbai India a billionaire built an entire skyscraper just for his family home. 4 million feet to cuddle his wife and children and their 300 servants.

Many Americans have stopped dreaming big, big, big. Those who dream big and pursue those dreams with vigor will prosper.
