Bushco & the GOP are on the BadKarma payment plan.

[Homer12]

Now, I don't know why I think this, but it's more of a feeling I've been getting lately that Bushco and all of those Americans whom blindly follow the Republican Party Line, the reborn facsist GOP, are going to get a big wake-up call this year that they've become the core of AntiAmericanism by the zeaolatry of their own actions.

The Right-Wing has sunk so low, starting the the mid-1990's that the law of averages are going to pay them back in kind this year.

Much like when Hasselback of the Seahawks said in Green Bay yesterday that they were going to score and win the game.


Better be ready though, they'll try to do everything in their power to take us down with them when they fall.

1. I watched "Gangs of New York" last night and

I think there are a lot of parallels between that time (Civil War) and ours. The rich lived lives of luxury while many ordinary people lived desperate lives; the government was corrupt and only represented the wealthy; violent tribalism was the rule in the lower classes; religion was a unifying force in all classes but not between classes; fear was the primary governing tool used by the powerful; flag-waving masked killing, hatred, exclusion and suppression; the poor were drafted while the wealthy bought their way out of the draft; the poor were manipulated into scapegoating (blacks); lower-class women were commonly used as sex industry fodder; the lust for cheap labor and use of desperate immigrants by the capitalists overrode any sense of economic justice; the wealthy "paid half of the poor to kill the other half." In the end, the poor rose up against the wealthy but were mowed down by the military; let's hope we can come up with a better way to try to achieve social and economic justice now.

I do believe in karma but I think it sometimes takes generations for payback. The Bushies are definitely close to maxing out on their karma credit plan.

2. I'd like to think so.

Even the luck of the repugs has got to turn around sometime. When that day comes, I'm gonna enjoy myself.
