The recent flurry of almost unbelievable rulings from the U.S. Supreme Court prompted our friend Geoffrey Deihl (@gdeihl) to go off on a rant. Here are a few choice bits...
___________________________
We are witnessing the culmination of a decades long coup d'état by an increasingly unpopular minority party that stands for racism, greed, and enslavement.
The enemy is the billionaires who have stolen the American Dream from all of us, liberal or conservative. The conservatives, aided by decades of lies from the likes of Rupert Murdoch, Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, and numerous other players, have nearly destroyed our country.
Our political system is no longer of the people, for the people, and by the people. It is of the arms industry, for the lobbyists, and by AIPAC, the powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee. That’s where the interests of our elected leadership lies, in corporate and military might. They don’t care about you or me. It’s a zero-sum game, and peasants are always expendable, especially in an overpopulated world where resources are running out.
While one party is undeniably more evil in its corruption and presents a clear and immediate danger, both have contributed to the rise of the billionaire class that really runs the show, monsters whose proof of superiority lies in their ill-gotten money and power, evidence in their inflated minds of our inferiority and a drag on their sick vision of the future.
