You can fool some people some of the time, but what about Americans?
 

 

It is uncanny to believe in this day and age that some people fall for anything. Con was and still is one of the greatest inventions created by people. Not glorifying it at all, it is beyond me why some people just fall for anything. Is it because they are hopeful, wishful or just plain naives? It's funny because in the court of law ignorance is not a defense. Americans can be fooled easily if tragedy is used for the art of deception. Americans can be fooled easily if pity is used deceptively such as "I'm homeless and I need fifty cents to eat."

You see it every day. You pass by homeless people who have their hands out panhandling for money, food, and jobs, but don't get it twisted; it's mainly for money. But, before I get into that, what about the American people psyche? How is it that a man, can go out on a campaign trail and make promises you know he can't keep and you vote for him? How is it when you have proof of a liar and you can tell because your instincts, your intellect, your common sense tell you something isn't right with an office official and you continue to allow the government media sources troubleshoot the situation and hand you garbage for information and you accepts it, or worst ignore it? It happens in America everyday.

President George Bush, as we told you from the onset, that this guy would deplete our surplus, ignore environmental health and aid, shun the programs for child welfare as soon as he got into office. He gave big businesses billions and had to come up with a budget plan to rectify it.

First he wanted to fight China because the US spy plans got caught over there, and China didn't let them out of their zone for days. Then 911 was allowed to happen whether you want to believe it or not. The art of war will be and always will be based on casualties to gain power and for those of you who are naïve enough to let the President persuade you with patriotism over murder need to go back to school and learn about history concerning war, power, drugs, money, and positioning.

The American people allowed Bush to disrespect the UN as if he himself was a Crusader over the nomads. The American people allowed this man to defend his father's vendetta and attempt to steal the oil from the Arabs. The American people puff up full of pride forgetting what the bible has to say about pride, drunken with revenge and not seeing straight, while this president turned the tables away from Bin Laden onto Saddam Hussein and his county which had nothing to do with 911, and the American people followed the pied-piper directorial lead.

The news media on the words of the government shown countless times the face of Bin Laden, the face of Hussein and the tearing down of idol statues to lead Americans to believe they won a war, quickly and strategically. And, you buy into the madness. The madness and rhetoric of annalist telling you how it would be and how quickly it would happen. Then you are told that you will foot the bill. Since President Bush has been in office over 2.6 million Americans has lost their jobs in California alone. Since Bush been in office the US is first in incarcerations at 2.1 million. Since Bush been in office Big Businesses has gotten away with so much money that you can't even dream of and your reasoning for voting for him was for the preservation of the White House honor that was supposed to have been destroyed by Bill Clinton.

You were tricked to believe what was wrong and when the signs prove to you that its wrong you ignore them. Clinton did what other past Presidents and elected officials had done in the White House and in the oval room. OH WELL! This president is doing to us what Clinton did to that female intern (whom, by the way, had her own television show, incredible as it was ) except what he is doing is, to put it point blank, murder.

You would vote to veto Clinton out of office due to your self-serving morals and values, but allow a man to stay in office who has pit your children in arms way to defend his father and the greed of the one per centers. You pit on a blind eye when the truth is being exposed that there were no weapons of mass destructions. You pit on a blind eye when the truth is being revealed that he is not the leader. Rumsfeld, Powell, Rice and the lot of them is all crooked and talk with tongues that are manipulative and devastating to the United States of America.

You may dislike me for saying it but you Americans were con every sense the first vote was cast in 2000. Gore broke away from Clinton and couldn't win votes in his own hometown. So, the moral of this story is who is there to vote for, or what make more sense is, why don't we choose our own candidates to vote for instead of the one's the powerful place in position for us to vote for?

We are in another Vietnam, except it is trickier. The people over there have been oppressed for so long by their own people, and adding the United States to their problems has made it worst. Suicide bombing isn't new. It is a message showing that they will die for what they believe in. The message the United States has been sending is that we do not have the knowledge or the skills to dialog and negotiate.

That message flows through the streets of America, where as in Oakland there have been over 100 acts of murder. Who is social modeling these behaviors? The President, The Vice President, Rumsfeld, Powell, Rice all should be vetoed out of office. They have all done us a disservice in the art of being deceitful. They have all lied to the American people. The war is not over. Our youths are dying over there in a war that was not ours but created by President Bush and the one per centers for three reasons: father's vendetta, oil, and greed.

It is a shame that in this day and age, as Christian as some claim to be, as Muslim as some claim to be, as moral and ethical as some claim to be, as intelligent as some claim to be, one cannot decipher if this government cannot handle a homeless situation, how the hell can they handle a war?

Our streets aren't safe. Our jails and prisons are full. Our schools are lacking. Our seniors are becoming homeless. Our community resources are depleting. Our jobs are being lost. Our youth are becoming lost. Our minds are being tricked and some of us are tired. But, there are many who are against the death of our soldiers dying in vain. There are many who are against the air of dictatorship and don't get it mixed with strength.

There is too much killing going on, so America, are you all right with it? I have this bridge, any buyers? Get Bush out of office before its too late. I'm not fooled a bit! November 4, 2003
