Balls

The time has come. This has to be the age of a new everyman. Like the Orc's in the Tolkien trilogy, the other side has become ever more diabolical. They have the money, the media, and the Neanderthals. Everyman has to find leaders like Harry Truman who never minced words. If a politician is afraid to be bloodied for his ideals then he needs to be cast aside. You passed health care reform. Shout it from the rooftops. You stimulated a dying economy. Let people know this was the right thing to do. Don't try to rationalize your points of view with political trolls. If someone disagrees violently with you, don't shrink like a violet behind conciliatory language. Swear, get in his or her face and let them know you don't represent Fat Cats. Use your media money wisely. Show the other side for what they are using their own actions. I still can't believe, with footage of Tea Party people spitting on congressmen and ridiculing the disabled, this wasn't used with devastating effect in a commercial saying is this the ideals you want in politics. Grow a set or hide under a rock.

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.
