Sample from an article in The NATION : Gore
Vidal, Octocontrarian
"Cooper:
Are
you predicting a coming military dictatorship? And that the American
people
would stand for that?
Vidal: They'll stand for anything. And they will stand for nothing. I deal with a lot of European journalists who are very well versed in American politics. But they will ask me silly questions like, "So, Kerry didn't turn out very well. So who's the next leader of the opposition who can become President?" I answer, Well, first the New York Times won't interview him. He won't get on prime time television if he looks like a winner. That's out. Or he will be made a fool of, like they did with Howard Dean when they amplified his famous cry. That was all done at CBS to make him look like a maniac. They are very resourceful! So if you have a media that is completely controlled by corporate America--or whatever phrase you want to use to describe our rulers--no information is getting through that is useful to the public. No White Knight is going to be acknowledged in the press or seen on television. He would have no way of connecting with the people. And this a permanent fact in our situation.... If there could be a viable opposition to the oil and gas junta that has seized power--all three branches of government, I think--it will have to be at the grassroots. Then you will have to find a way of publicizing through the Internet the White Knight--or the Black Knight, whoever comes along to save us." who has followed the rise of corporate dominance for the last four decades.] |
NOTE: Vidal's comment above, relative to the use of the Internet to oppose the entrenched right wing energy "junta," i.e., "...find a way of publicizing through the Internet the White Knight..." has already been anticipated by the Republicans and political right. They are moving to use or create public law that will have the effect of crushing the capacity of political blogs to advocate for candidates in opposition to the political right, and with that, suppress the right to free speech.
[See evidence, when you review the evidence, remember that when you see the term "the government" used, that "the government" is only a puppet. When you see any reference to "the government" anywhere, simply remember who the puppet masters are. They control the strings that operate "the government."]
The Christian right wing believes
they have a sectarian
duty and a Constitutional right to impose their sectarian moral dogma
on
all Americans by having it be established in the laws of the
land.
But our United States Constitution was NOT founded on sectarian
religious
dogma from any orthodox faith group. Rather, it was founded
instead
on Universal Spiritual Principles, and therefore, this is a
major
reason why the Constitution proscribes and prohibits the establishment
of any state approved or organized religion or laws based on unique
sectarian
dogma, doctrine, or beliefs.
