Eight years later, and it all played out exactly as BushCo planned.

While I'm celebrating this historic day (but not prematurely!) with the rest of you, I'm also reminded that nothing that is happening in the world today was truly unforeseen or accidental. Everything that we are hearing about today, from the economic collapse to the amazing shifting demographics in America, were well documented and discussed back in the waning years of the Clinton presidency.

I don't know the name of the book, but I will attempt to find it; I first heard it discussed on NPR, back before the Bush administration stacked the Board of Directors and turned it into yet another GOP mouthpiece. The discussion was about the shift in demographics in America to a predominantly Hispanic nation. There was no stopping it, the story went. Between our employment policies, our immigration policies, and our simple physical attachment to the Mexican/Central American land mass, combined with birth rates, the Hispanic population in America will outnumber the non-Hispanic population by about 2025. Leading up to that, the growth in non-white demographics would make it impossible for the GOP to hold on to power.

They knew this back in the nineties, and I would guess well before that. That is the reason the last twelve years unfolded as they did. By design. The pathologically-wealthy Bush and Cheney families had a New World Order on their minds, and The Families were very methodical in setting up a structure which would enable them to pull off one last final coup for the Rich White Guys, draining the treasury and writing laws which would fuck virtually everyone who didn't have at least a couple of houses and offshore bank accounts.

They've got contracts to rebuild Iraq, rebuild our spent weapons, build new weapons, man the new bases and super-embassy, run the new phone systems, everything. They're set forever, and the country will not be able to spend a penny on those god-damned brown people. There is little wonder in why George Bush refused to even consider repealing any of his tax breaks; doing so would fund the very programs he and the neocons were trying to destroy. Besides, they were well aware of the coming of the economic crisis we're now facing. Shit, they were counting on it. They tried Social Security in the stock market first, remember? It was all by design to drain the government, pillage and burn it all before the heathens and dark skinned people and the atheists and the godless liberals took over.

We won!

Uh...yay?
