Poll question: Are we at War? |
|
Zell Miller's comment re: the fundraiser last week: "... that featured performers in a time of war calling the president of the United States a killer, a cheap thug and a liar." Leads me to ask the question: Are we at War?

2. No - and next time some GOPer tells you we're at war |
|
ask them what they've done for the "war effort"? Chances are they haven't done a damn thing.

|
To be at war, there would be a declaration of war. As of this date, we have no declaration.

5. A country truly at war comes together and sacrifices |
|
and that means everybody sacrifices for the good of the whole. A country at war doesn't hand out massive tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy. These phony Rwers tlak about war - they haven't sacrificed a thing to help the "war effort." In fact most of them reap profits by cloakinmg themselves in the flag and preaching patriotism to the morons.

6. WAR: The battle ground is your mind |
|
Whoever controls your perception of reality controls you. Propaganda is warfare. The weapons of propaganda is media, corporate owned media, who are selling you a consumer identity and a consumer society within which to live out the life of that identity.
"War on _______" (fill in the blank) is just a ruse to get us to PAY TAXES to the Military-Industrial and Policing Complexes AND THEIR HANDMAIDEN the University-Intellectual Complex (think tanks, social control, science at the service of militarism, etc.)
Truly, the best things in life are free. This "revolution" against the corporatist-fascist elite will go nowhere until we figure that out.
STOP WATCHING TV!!! STOP BUYING CORPORATE LOGOS!!!
