Just as the founders intended. |
Are you living in Hong Kong..? Our media is basically a propaganda mill.. bought & paid for by the most $$$. We do not see, for example, the dirty.. bloody war that is killing thousands of our young people in Iraq, not to mention the gory and maimed that return home minus arms & legs.. and maybe vision. Then too, they hide the 10's of thousands that are in extreme post traumatic shock, they have lost marriages & jobs due to that. You should see our Phoenix Republic (newspaper) - you wouldn't guess there is a war going for all these years. No, the "big" headlines are usually sports related.. or some old feature stories about eye catching yada yada.. they even have 1 or 2 ad's running on front page.
As for our "founders" - HA..!! Our 'founders' were a bunch of grifters that established the "Virginia Company" when they landed (in of course, "Virginia") - and proceeded to pillage & rape the country. Too bad for the natives.. the Indian.. they are relegated to their "reservation" - and after all these years they have little but contempt for the wonderful & benevolent "Pilgrims" that invited themselves as master & guardian of their (Indians) country. Try reading the "Manifest Destiny" - how the Virginia Company & it's ilk decided they were the "chosen" people" -
Oh, yes, there have been people that tried to right as many wrongs as possible.. but.. they are dead. Murdered. Progress was made, yes. But it has been reversed and is careening out of control. No Barrack or Hillary or anyone can stop the monster. The MIMC.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
