Tiger Woods + the Affairs of State_1

Is THIS what matters? Tiger Woods having an affair? Has the majority of the American people now succumbed to a mindset, favored by the international global elites, that nothing else matters? Including millions of refugees across the globe, hundreds of thousand maimed + injured, with NO fucking mention in the US media? Is anyone even asking, why Blackwater (Mr. Prince and his 'christian' minions') are still contractors paid by the Dept of State, to protect various entities, including our own, which are so thoroughly corrupt, as to defy description? 56% of Americans are now in FAVOR of torture, as opposed to only 30 % before 9/11 and the Bush/Cheney regime.
What does this say about us as a nation, as a people, actually? Have we forgotten ALL lessons of history in favor of the latest TV show, aptly entitled '24" ?
Here is the essay, from which I am quoting, and I thank onepissedoffliberal for stating the obvious:

[FlopSideOfLife2009]

I'm sharing this with my facebook and family...

You give me cause to pause on the Baby Boomer generation and say well thre is one ho I know that is standing her ground and believeing that Viet Nam was wrong and can see the same happening in Afganistan and Iraq and the whole Middle east for that matter.

Keep going.... and many Baby Boomers should be ashamed watching their Grandchildren march off again.

FlopSide: thank you. I think us baby-boomers are pretty much divided amongst ourselves, and not everyone was the same. One should remember, that we are talking about an ENTIRE generation, composed of the peace-movement and warmonger alike. Although the term BABYBOOMERS is now being re-defined as something bad overall. It's all about labeling and branding...and utterly useless ;)

if there is anyone left on the fence regarding the Obama administration by now, there is no hope for them. It would have been the same with McCain too. Both parties suck, to put it bluntly.

[55ella2007k]

cv1122: yes, cv + I couldn't agree more! !! Just remember, that when shit hits the fan, right-wing popular resentment will be stirred up by the elites of BOTH parties. I can't wait for the stupid immigrant-bashing to start, in terms of immigration laws. Just remember, that the illegals are not the problem, it is the entities who employ them without any punishment whatsoever, so that THEY don't have to pay taxes, period. The elites in Mexico are the same as here: it's a race to the bottom.

He contradicted himself a great many times, I used the same "legitimate" example in one of my vids.

Awesome mini-series Ella, unfortunately it's all so so very true my dear friend.

Peace.

[55ella2007k]

Kaz : Yea. I will try to point out these contradictions out very specifically, in a future vid, maybe. Let's just say, that it was a cut-and-paste job, not only in terms of his speech, but in terms of policy as well. I guess the speech-writers haven't hit the unemployment rolls so far, nor has the Sec of Defense, Gates, a retainer from the Bush Regime. Not to mention Geithner + Bernanke. Meanwhile, Bill Kristol, the neo-con in chief, is PRAISING the troop surge. So much for 'change' heh?

[UU361]

Obama is going to do exactly whet the corporations tell him to do. This war is about money.

[thesludgereport2]

Yep. It's all about the lobbyists money, not about morals, truth, or honesty. That no longer exists in the U.S. Money rules. Corruption rules. Fear and Hatred rule. And,,,,we have broken all the rules that we once were supposed to stand for. This country is lost.

[paddedshell]

4:37 too mean or too stupid... like shaking a baby. it defies belief, can anyone really be that mean or that stupid?

[usergently]

I just don't get it. People really thought that, the man would propose real change. Kissmyassenger took him under is dark shoulder way back. Zimbresky or whatever is name is, as a great  part of that New American Century shit plan. Poor America.

[CelticReject]

I wonder if Obamas kids watch YouTube? Or his wife? I sometimes wonder how they, or his extended family react to certain things that they might hear about him.
