Somebody Is Insane Here
By David Swanson
First John Lewis tells us that choosing between Clinton and Obama was harder than walking across the Edmund Pettis Bridge and getting his head beaten in.
Now John Dean lets us know that the Clinton and Obama contest is the greatest drama in history. 
A Yale law professor is promoting the argument that there are only a few months left until one of them is president.
Excuse me, but my calculator must be broken. There would seem in my apparent madness to be nearly a year left before Diebold and ES&S may possibly permit one of these two to move into the White House, a year in which millions will die unnecessarily, in which global warming will advance, in which the Constitution will continue to disintegrate.
Am I in the Twighlight Zone episode where EVERYBODY ELSE goes insane, or am I insane? Is the Onion now reporting real news?
Both of these candidates in yet another imminent but distant MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION IN HISTORY support but dislike NAFTA, oppose but wish for universal health coverage, dislike but won't end the occupation of Iraq, reject impeachment, deny the existence of election fraud, and promote more militarism.
Am I watching the same channel the rest of the country seems to have tuned into? How did Howard Zinn get stuck in this padded cell with me?

only news is internet news as for now
UK: media blackout on vote in parliment to fold UK into EU
US: Lou Dobbs officially states for the US Public: new world order can be defeated if country becomes informed
Canada: playing catch-up
Australia: infatuation with new politicians will NOT keep the NWO away
Germany: it is not the whole nation involved - communication is critical
France: French Acadamy Award winner reveals nation still an Ally to the US of A. We still have a friend in the world - BUT tentative - might go underground (not again!)
Russia: for so many years has been both false enemy and false friend - DIRECT dialog away from politico's might help - unknown
Impeachment of the President and Vice President can continue on grounds:
continued pattern of torture signifies that even after events of 911 which is an area of legal suspension, us government has a deceitful pattern of routinely breaking domestic and international laws: situtation critical: UK, Montreal, France being pulled into jaws of shadow E.U. - in progress
USA is awake - awaiting 'professionals' to join in or see nation perish in front of their very eyes - geek squads out
One Flew Over...
Am I in the Twighlight Zone episode where EVERYBODY ELSE goes insane, or am I insane?
I'm guessing that was rhetorical, but...
I've had that same eerie Twilight Zone feeling for a few years now.
I think EVERYBODY ELSE has been made comfortably numb by the inner-workings of an elite group of power-hungry greedy persons who are made up of politicians, media and corporations that tap into fear as well as people's own desire for self-indulgence.
You, and most here on ADS, are somehow immune - whether from our upbringing or some innate quality - to the mental trickery. But, that quality makes us a target of the masses of zombies who have been programmed to marginalize dissent.
Thus, we sit in the padded cell with invisible walls. We make our attempts at challenging this authority. We write, we protest, we speak out. We make some progress and we get pushed back again.
Before we get lobotomized, though, we need to pull a "Chief Bromden" and hurl something so massive and unyielding through that window that it cannot go unnoticed and it will allow the rest to walk out into the sunlight.

GW Bush is now in the final stages of destroying America. The economy is tanking. We will all be in survival mode in the not too distant future. When that day comes, unless they find another false flag reason to blame it on, people will wake up. Some people are even waking up from their religious delusions, and that is hard work.
