Fortunes Told

The past, because everyman has refused to pay attention to it, is about to repeat itself. So let me gaze into my Chinese crystal ball and predict the short term future. This being the only future everyman is capable of noticing. We have once again, through obfuscation, taken control of one of the houses of power. What is our goal for the next two years? Gridlock lies and mis-direction. We will block government funding, say that it is the will of the American people, and then blame the other side of the aisle for it. As the insurance companies rejoice we will slowly strip the health care reform bill of any meaningful reform. Public education will gradually die of funding malnutrition. We will swell the ranks of our radical old fogey tea party by appealing to the worst in Americans. Our television and radio ministers of propaganda will pave the way for our total takeover in two years.

What has made all this possible? The very lack of will to fight back by our opponents. Instead of screaming back in our faces, that yes I voted for health care reform and I'm proud of it, they let us spit on them and throw dollar bills at the disabled. Americans like fighters not wimps who fall back on intelligent arguments and logic.

The consensus is that the Neanderthal died out and Cro-Magnum or modern man took over. To refute that theory, all one has to do is attend a Tea Party Rally.
