American Mob: Bush's Guns, Goons and GHOULiani In The Wings
American Mob: Bush's Guns, Goons and GHOULiani In The Wings
Submitted by Linda Milazzo on Mon, 2007-10-08



Life was easy for George W. Bush. Fortunately so. As an unspectacular man, his only gift was his privilege. Without it, he would never have risen to the top. He's no John Edwards, who rose from poverty to a successful law career, and on to the US Senate. He's no Obama, who taught Constitutional Law, and also went to the US Senate. Absent his privilege, life would have been much different for incurious, obsessive, less-than-average George.

Aside from his incurious nature, compulsions and recklessness, what's most sad about Bush is his lack of compassion. Privilege makes no provision for that. He's loyal - but just to his famiglie (families) - his blood family, and the non-blood enablers around him. He's simplistic, self-righteous and rigid. Even in matters of life and death, he lacks an inner-compassionate guide. He's a mobster. A sociopath. He lies, cheats and uses any means to achieve his goals - dismissive of the cost. (How to judge a sociopath: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_know_if_someone_is_a_sociopath)

As Governor, Bush holds the all time record for executions. In six years, 152 men and women died on his command. As Texas executioner, he was prolific. As America's executioner, he's genocidal. Since becoming president, hundreds of thousands have died on his command. Like any 'capo' (mob head), he merely orders the killing. Consistent with his lifetime, others do it for him. He didn't depress the syringes in Texas. He doesn't depress the triggers in Afghanistan and Iraq. Like every capo (mob head), he just calls the shots. He's the 'capo di tutti capi' (the boss of all bosses) of America's mob - the Bush American government.

Unlike the other mob, the Bush mob fears no reprisal. With compliant Legislators and a compliant Court, he controls the laws of the nation. He commands HIS armies like a capo of old. They serve HIS purpose and HIS purpose alone. HIS generals do HIS bidding. They fight for HIM. They speak for HIM. Their salutes are akin to a kiss on the hand when dismissed to do his bidding.

On the homefront, capo Bush feigns protection and makes his people pay. They pay with their taxes that he uses at will. They pay with their freedoms that he controls at will. HIS FBI is data mining those who have opposed him. Patriots are persecuted more vehemently every day. This week, CODEPINK's Medea Benjamin and former Diplomat Ann Wright were forbidden to enter Canada for the audacity of challenging Bush. HIS mob rule extends far beyond our borders. It imperils the entire world. (http://www.opednews.com/articles/genera_rob_kall_071007_fbi_puts_antiwar_pro.htm)

Beyond the FBI, CIA and uniformed military who believe they are acting as government, America's capo employs specialists who "know" they are really the mob. They are mercenaries and assassins, organized by 'caporegimi' (crew captains) like Erik Prince of Blackwater USA. They do the "special" jobs. Until this week, they operated entirely sans retribution. But miraculously, the typically compliant Congress voted to oversee their activities, much to the chagrin of capo Bush and consigliere Cheney. Erik Prince, after all, is a member of their 'famiglia.'
