| One of my favorite books is Noem Chomsky's book Deterring Democracy. I would love to hear his comments regarding recent elections in the Ukraine. Hillary Clinton expressed her opinion in the OP/Ed section of todays Financial Times. She said, "In recent weeks, Ukraine's people have shown that they have been building a civil society. Their refusal to except the results of a clearly fraudulent presidential runoff election marks a turning point in the nation's development of a civil society." I read those words and said to myself, why can't the american people develop such a civil society by refusing to accept a fraudulent election in this country where the media brainwashes everyone and democratic presidents are impeached instead of our current illegitimate president. Hillary goes on to say to the people of the Ukraine "that respect for democracy and the rule of law is a central factor in determining the future relationship with the west" I thought to myself if this is true, very few democratic nations will want anything to do with the US its sham democracy. They may continue to have relations with countries who have had sham democracy imposed upon it by the US because all western countries have had sham democracy imposed on them by the US. It's really a cover for what they call free markets; where insider or foreigners can invade a supposed "democratic" country and buy up all significant enterprise and operate them in a manner that rewards them with wind fall profits, usually though monopoly positions. The former soviet states did not have competition among industry. The ruling parasites love to have freedom to buy these monopolies and use them to rob the people. Isn't freedom wonderful for only them. Clinton's husband used to say the Japs were organizing to compete. But they don't compete in a manner where they hurt their people but in a manner to raise wages and employment of Japanees workers. Prices were fixed in the interests of the Japaneese industry, and Japanees workers. These workers were also consumers. In that article on the front page of todays Financial Times regarding the Ukraine it reads "We have been living with independance for forteen years but today we became free" If only americans were so lucky. Forty million americans can't even afford healthcare let alone decent housing. The majority of americans are robbed daily by low wages for the labor, by the healthcare racket, by high taxes on workers to subsidize tax cuts for shareholder parasites and their corporations, by their landlords, by Bush's friends in the energy and healthcare industries that bankroll conservative political campaigns nation wide. That article on the front page went on to say, "Ukraine's supreme court ordered the rerun and Mr. Kuchma agreed to wide ranging political and legal changes that curbed the scope for fraud and the power of authorities to intervene in the polls." Our sham Supreme Court does the opposite to preserve our sham democracy. The article continues "Having backed mr. Yanukovich earlier in the campaign, Mr. Kuchmaquetly distanced himself fromn the prime minister, robbing Mr. Yanukovich of the coordinated support he had previously enjoyed from the countries political, bureaucratic and business establishment." The irony is homorous when compared to the american political system where the same type of establishment controls the media and the ultimate outcome of every election. This implies that true lovers of democracy must soon move to the Ukraine to live in a democracy. The article goes on to say that the defeated Russian backed candidate complained he had been betrayed by his allies and cheated by the Supreme court. That sounds like what the US establishment did to AlGore. The article contines "Reports indicated that voting was free of centrally organized fraud that marred the last vote." Of only Americans could be so lucky. The article ends by saying "Mr Yushchenko also wants to encourage the investigation of political wrongdoing in the Kuchma era" Now there is an idea for our sham dictator in this country. John Dean of the Nizon era wrote a book describing how there has been a plethora of acts committed by George W. Bushbrain that would have gotten any democratic president impeached. |
