THROW THE BUMS OUT - ALL OF THEM
Senate Millionaires Kill Mortgage Assistance for Citizens
Foreclosure Cramdown Bankruptcy Bill,
By Huffington’s Michael Collins
The Senate on Thursday rejected an effort to stave off home foreclosures by a vote of 51 to 45. It was an overwhelming defeat.the bill's backers falling 15 votes short -- a quarter of the Democratic caucus -- of the 60 needed to cut off debate and move to a final vote.The death of the bankruptcy reform measure -- which would have allowed a small number of homeowners who met strict conditions to renegotiate mortgages under bankruptcy protection -- is a major tactical win for the banking industry. But allowing the foreclosure crisis to continue unabated may end up being a failed strategy for the financial sector.
It wasn't easy for Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), who led the effort on behalf of homeowners, to wrangle the 45 votes.Durbin is deeply unhappy with his Democratic colleagues that sided with the banks. "Frankly, I can't match what the bankers are doing in terms of lobbying," he said. Asked by the Huffington Post how bank influence could ever be reduced, he said, "When the voters speak, some elected officials listen. So I hope that, if we fail on mortgage foreclosure and we fail on credit card reform, I hope that people in this country will stand up and say to Congress, 'You've got the wrong friends.'"
After the vote, Durbin said he was surprised to lose so many Democrats. "I had hoped for a better vote. I mean, really, to lose 11 Democrats was disappointing, but, you know, I guess I've gained some ground since the issue last came up. Maybe if the mortgage foreclosures go up dramatically and I call it again next year I can pass it," Durbin told the Huffington Post.Earlier this week, Durbin concluded that banks The Chamber of Commerce that "frankly own the place."

OUR QUESTIONS COULD GO ON, ON, ON… Ad infinitum
ACTION BY NONPARTISAN POLITICAL CHANGE IS MANDATORY:
WE PROPOSED OUR INITIAL SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS
FOR CHANGE
BY PASSAGE OF:
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS
AND
RELEVANT FEDERAL STATUTES.
CHANGE IS RISK
Democracy is a difficult and exhaustive system. It can be FRUSTRATING to move toward change. Nevertheless, The future is now, and it does not look good; unless, we act boldly.
Yes. This reform is a gamble. Change is frightening. Yet, is not Life – Risk? Is it not true, America has always been and is = CHANGE. An evolving democracy dedicated to the betterment, opportunity and prosperity for all. More precisely, the truth is, America has no choice. Otherwise, we will be unable to maintain our standard of living.
WHERE ARE THE SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS FROM
REPUBLICANS AND WALL STREET INTERESTS?
THE LATTER WHICH CAUSED THE CRISIS?????
REPUBLICANS MUST ACT WITH NONPARTISANSHIP; NOT OBSTRUCTIONISM.
BECAUSE THE CONSEQUENCES FOR INACTION ARE INCOMPREHENSIBLE - TOO HORRIFIC TO IMAGINE.
Republicans must begin acting in a nonpartisan fashion, rather than utilizing transparent OBSTRUCTIONISM. This is no time for political gamesmanship. It is decision time. We offer to our Republican brothers and sisters an olive branch. Reconsider your position. Please, join with us, in this crisis of crises, as Americans who must save our Nation. United, not as a country, instead as a family, together, we can proceed forward. No one can stop us; except ourselves.
Otherwise, ELECTED OFFICIALS UNWILLING TO ENLIST IN THE RECOVERY, NO MATTER THEIR POLITICAL AFFILIATION, MUST BE REMOVED FROM PUBLIC OFFICE.
GENERATIONAL RESPONSIBILITY
No. This is not a task for the next generation; rather it is the responsibility of our generation. A time for reasoned, feasible immediate action. Past generations stepped up and assumed the risks confronting them. Now, our turn has arrived. We must, enthusiastically, join and seize the initiative of this great challenge.
NO. NOT, YES WE CAN; RATHER, YES WE WILL!
Onward!

The Former Politician’s Perspective Regarding Washington Debate
Previously, a majority of Site Participants opposed; however, presently wholeheartedly endorse, the Former Politician's perspective regarding the Washington economic recovery debate.
He raises this question: “Are elected officials incompetent fools; or, in reality, something else which is quite DISCONCERTING?”
“Unfortunately, in politics, everything which is accomplished or un-accomplished is done withthoughtful strategy, thorough planning and premeditated DESIGN.Every career politician knows:"THE GAME and THE SCORE.”Exactly, what are; and, are not, THE RULES by which THE GAME must be played.They understand, one either plays THE GAME; otherwise, it isPOLITICAL-CAREER suicide.The demise of their: self-service, financial advantages, their perks, respected stature; and, most importantly, their beloved revolving-door retirement.”
"My involvement in politics taught me one absolute truth.Although it sounds cynical, there does not exist such a thing as an incompetent politician.Elected officials are not fools; nor incompetents. ‘Rather: Dumb like Foxes. They, the politicians, are THE FOXES, We, The People... , are the CHICKENS. However, today, in Washington, the predatory game is up.The CHICKENS have come home to roost.’Americans can be fooled; however, fools we are not.”
“DO NOT BE DECEIVED!NO!NO!NO!There are no dim-witted idiots governing our Nation.Rather, shrewd schemers. They comprehend precisely what they are doing.Most certainly, willing to inflict, if necessary, horrific consequences upon The Middle-Class and the Poor.”
“Regrettably, we, as citizens, are compelled to lie to our discouraged selves. Typically, with the self-justification:"Those politicians are:dumb, stupid; or, out of touch with the Public's needs.”This SELF-DECEPTION is indispensable for us to retain hope; trust and belief in our republican–democracy.However, subconsciously, most of us realize the agonizing truth.”
“The current state of affairs in Washington is:The same old; same old. Legal corruption!The moral suasion approach will not work.This is why many of our Specific Solutions include criminal sanctions.Punitive measures are vital for the correction of our national perception, self-knowledge; and, [hopefully] our transformed future societal ethos.”

APPROPRIATE RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION
FEBRUARY 11, 2009
RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION AND A DISQUIETING QUESTION
[PREVIOUSLY, WE DID NOT POST THIS DISQUIETING QUESTION; CONCERNED IT COULD POTENTIALLY INFLAMEPUBLIC PASSIONS.]
Nevertheless, we have reconsidered our position.In this economic emergency, we consider appropriate righteous indignation is justified.Judging, it coulda serveas a societal steam valve.[Cautioning!No citizen is entitled to act violently.]Nevertheless, within the reasonable parametersof a free speech DEMOCRACY, people are entitled to express NON-VIOLENT RIGHTEOUS ANGER regarding national wrongdoing.
Therefore, we present the following question:regarding the Corporate-Wealth Class
What would be the mind-set of the Corporate-Wealth Class towarda cataclysmic DEPRESSION?If aDepression occurred, The Corporate-Wealth Class would be unworried.The unvarnished truth and economic reality is:The Rich would prosper.Why? During aDepression, activation of deflationgeneratesgreater purchasing power for the Wealthy.[In effect] As JFK stated, "No matter if a Depression occurs, wealthy people do very, very well.”Unfortunately, the Middle-Class and Poor get the economic shaft!

FAILURE TO PURSUE COMMON GROUND
FEBRUARY 6, 2009
FAILURE TO PURSUE COMMON GROUND
REPUBLICANS SHOULDER CULPABILITY IN THIS FARCE
Although a Site with a liberal perspective, weattemptpursuitof nonpartisanobjectivity.Neither, opposing; nor favoring specific candidates-parties; rather, their ideas.However, in this case, prior Washingtonposturing persists.With transparent partisanship, executed in bad faith, no Republican voted for the President‘s Stimulus; nor, offered reasonable alternatives.
35.Why is there reluctance to condemn rapacious Wall Street institutions that invented one suckers market after another [Bubbles]?Cheering the boom; unconcerned about the bust?(Bubble architects got theirs; then, stole away with their secreted ill-gotten gains.Leaving investors holding the bag.)
36.Why is there no attempt to apply RICO [Racketeer Influenced And Corrupt Organizations Act] regarding where investors’money vanished [disappeared to] during the multiple market swindles and scandals? To locate where investors’ assets are currently secreted [hidden] away?[If RICO was enforced, it could activate a TRACING PROCESS to recapture some of investors’stolen wealth.]
37.Why are Wall Street Interests unchallenged when they instigate demagogiccrusades to subvert President Obama’sprogram to prevent futuremortgage foreclosures?Whendoing nothing to reduce subsequent foreclosures could accelerate the downward spiralinto aSecond Great Depression? Where is the condemnation of thisdemagoguery which pits one group ofMiddle-Class mortgages–holders against another? Why are current honorable conservatives silent? Why do they not demand their alleged compatriots to propose an alternative foreclosure plan?
38.What ever happened to the movement of honorable levelheaded conservatives; such as, William F. Buckley, Sen. E. Dirkson, Bob Michaels, President Eisenhower; who disagreed with liberals, however, proposed alternative solutions to national problems?
39.Why did the former administration coerceenormoustransfers of wealth from The Middle-Class and Poor to the Corporate-Wealth Class?
40.Why isapproximately half of annual US income harvested bythe upper 3-20% = The Wealth Class?
41.Why are Middle-Class and Poor taxpayers required to bear the heavy annual burden offederal, state and local taxes?
42.Why is there political reluctance to TAX THE RICH?To require those, possessing most of the national wealth, to pay their reasonable fair share?
43.Why were unnecessary tax rebates [giveaways] authorized for the [upper 3%] Wealth Class(approximating $5.7 Trillion)?
44. Why is there no attempt to recapture these $5.6 Trilliongiveaways to replenish the national TREASURY?OTHERWISE, can public CONFIDENCE ever be RESTORED?
45.Why is there political reluctance to permanently terminate surreptitious pork [corruption] earmarks: mandating all appropriations be scrutinized by the open legislative process?
46.Why is there little or no condemnation ofPatriot Act abuses?Which violated the US Constitution by unconscionable illegal surveillance of Americans as terrorist suspects?
47.Why is there no basic effort to reinstate our constitutionalrights andliberties; thereby, securing the founding precepts andthe integrity of our republican-democracy?
48.Why is there political aversion to rational criminal investigations into charges of alleged torture; so, we might regain our national reputation, and moral standing in the world community?

BEWARE = THE EXCUSE-MAKERS:
NEGATIVISTS IMPOSSIBLITY THINKERS
WHO OPPOSE CHANGE REFORM
In reality,favoring The Status Quo Ante.
How to Recognize Opponent's Unwillingness or Outright Pretexts Resisting Reasonable CHANGE and REFORM
SOME FALLACIOUS, SPECIOUS ERRONEOUS ARGUMENTS OPPOSINGMODERNIZATION REFORMS
Many will oppose 21st Century reformations.Their primary arguments willdeclare:"Specific reform are impossible.Congress will never enact them.Ergo, reform is unachievable, politically unfeasible, unrealistic, impracticable, and unworkable. We, The People,do not understand how things work in WashingtonDC? Congress passes legislation one piece at time. A slow tedious process.”
Voters must instantaneously recognize such candidate's and\or officeholder's statements as possible duplicity!Amounting to a reasonable justification to either remove them from office; or, otherwise, withdraw further public support for their candidacy.
Why?
Such positions reveal their true intent =fallacious excuses.Which are admissions against their intellectual position. If Congress will notdo it, then substantial change, through the ordinary legislative process,is impossible. Therefore, if this is true, then it reinforces the conclusion our political systemis truly bankrupt without any prospect of a better future.
This is unacceptable.
We must emphasize, democracy is based upon an innate agreement to disagree. These opponents are not our political enemies. Nevertheless, at this precipitous stage in our history, we must abandon the 20th centurymindset.Moreover, it is irrelevant whether or not opponents agree. To the contrary, for the good of the Nation, we must be resolute demanding these officials state their specific solutions.How; and, when they will legislate them.
As a nation, we no longer have time to tarry.Daily our perils escalatethreaten to overwhelm us. It is no longer a question ofwhether or not we want passage; the perilous truth is we NEED REFORM.We have run out of time.No more half measures. No more Band-Aids; half-baked non-solutions.No longer one slice at a time, but rather, time to bake a new loaf of bread.Old ways are ineffective.Now is the time for a new way forward. For USA it is decision time. It is now or never.We must be determined steadfast tenacious to resolve these perennial problems.
THIS SITE'S EIGHT-YEAR RESEARCH MISSION AND PURPOSE
Over the last eight years, this Site prepared for this call to muster = rallying the Public to support necessary reforms.We as a People must find THE COMMON GROUNDTO CLEANSE ourselves of the perniciousLEGAL AND ILLEGAL CORRUPTION currently infecting our nation. Yes. Change is frightening.Life is risk.Nevertheless, all must assume risk.Something new always is worrisome.However, America is change.Always an evolving democracy dedicated to the betterment, prosperity and opportunity for all. This reform opportunity is a gamble.Nevertheless, one which may never come again.America is obliged to change.For it will not long endure if fundamental change is not achieved. If no leadership exits, then we must be the leaders.It is our country.We must be the new 21st Century Founding Fathers and Mothers.No more can we ignore these vexing perils.We must confront them.Otherwise, we will continue wandering aimlessly without direction merely hoping for a better result as our problems overwhelm us. Our Site's methodology for realizing specific reform is to promote a board-based Bottom-Up movement to Congress insisting on fundamental change.No longer trusting our destiny to the selected few.No longer blaming others for problems.We must step up to the plate. We The People must be the Leaders, who will plant need seeds for new harvest.We cannot proceed forward living in past.We will triumph beyond this economic crisis. Advance forward! Onward! United Together! Or, otherwise fail as a nation, as the US continues to spiral out of control to its demise in thedustbin of history.

AMERICA TRANSFORMED INTO
THE PRODIGAL SON
BLUNTLY,
as a Nation, we have degraded ourselves; becoming our own most evil adversary. We have not been competent stewards of our God-Given Birthright - heritage.
BY WHICH WE MEAN:
The prosperity abundance and affluence generously bestowed upon us by The Father. In addition, the lionize constitutional assets our wise Founding Fathers endangered their lives to create for [us] posterity's liberty and pursuit of happiness. Taken together, all of which produced the most preeminent Nation "ever to so long endure" on Planet Earth.
Unfortunately, to date, the majority [if not the entirety] of this cornucopia has been mindlessly wasted. Not only is it a FACT our prosperity and wealth been frivolously misspent. With unrivaled irresponsibility, we recklessly squandered our inheritance. Worse yet, our: prized ideals, constitutional civil liberties, ethical standards, honored principles, [even our international reputation] have been dissolutely cast before swine. All those rapacious porcine creatures greedily feeding at The Trough of Avarice. Not seeking contentment of their needs; rather, nebulous gratification of their insatiable desires.
A behavior accurately illustrated by the Gospel's PRODIGAL SON.
HOW DID THIS STATE OF AFFAIRS COME ABOUT?
THE TRUTH IS: WE DO NOT KNOW.
HOWEVER,
WE HAVE RESEARCHED EDUCATED GUESSES
[Who knows the motivation? Most likely, blinded by irrational ambition for extreme success = the lust for MONEY? Nevertheless, The Theologian constantly reminds us, "Jesus, never said money was the root of all evil. It is THE LOVE OF MONEY which is the root . Apparently, The Philosopher is right, "The surplus of obsessive ambition for success and winning can produce disastrous failure. In other words, an excessive aggregation of a GOOD THING can accumulate extremely adverse consequences."]
In any event, gradually, almost imperceptibly, America's ethical principles were cheapened. The Nation assumed an apathetic indifferent attitude. Gradually, we stopped practicing the spirit of the ethical- spiritual law; and, self-deceptively substituted the mere letter of the law. A thinking that: If one did not break the criminal law, then they were good. Nevertheless, all humanity recognizes humans are called to a higher plane of ethical and spiritual life. All possess an inner knowing - an innate comprehension - that obeying the criminal law is merely minimal ethics. To be a GOOD BEING we are required to do THE GOOD for its own sake. Again, The Philosopher: "It does not logically or morally follow that: Just because one does not do anything bad; does not mean he is good of character. Doing nothing does "not" accomplish THE GOOD."
What happened to our beloved country has numerous historical cases in point. It seems, to a major degree, our populace seized upon effortless uncomplicated religiosity. The end result was a broad-based discarding the practice of the spiritual-ethical teachings of all the great prophets of history. Essentially, replacing the living of these fundamental principles upon which this Nation and Western Civilization was founded.
THE CONSEQUENCES:
IS AMERICA GOOD? YES. WE ARE NOT POSITING AMERICA IS BAD;
RATHER, THAT IT MUST REFORM ITS PHILOSOPHY AND ETHICS
WE ARE SAYING THIS:
During this present time cycle, Americans, including ourselves, have lost sight of our heritage. We forgot who we are. What we stand for. What it means to be an American! AS A RESULT, America is presently a Nation which has lost it way. Has forgotten the route home. And, must stop. Take a deep breath and rethink from whence we came. Because, there are wolves in the forest of darkness.
THE COMMON DENOMINATOR
AT THE HEART OF ALL AMERICA'S
DIFFICULTIES AND PROBLEMS
IS
CORRUPTION!!!
SOME CORRUPTION QUOTATIONS
Thomas Jefferson: Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, o wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence. John F. Kennedy : Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both. David Hume: The corruption of the best things gives rise to the worst. Andrew Jackson: I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office.

CORRUPTION
What is corruption?
The General Concept
From a philosophical, theological, or moral perspective, corruption refers to a deviation from spiritual, moral, ethical ideals and values! Generally speaking, it is a society's, organizations', government's, businesses', corporations', individuals replacing proper actions with dishonest behavior. Repeatedly acting inconsistently with prior acceptable conduct. Which, in time, ultimately destroys its previously cherished foundational principles: integrity, virtue, morals, values and ideals. Its very reason for existence.
Corruption represents change. Changing, or the process of being changed, for the worse. A great perversion of what once was pure, simple and revered behavior with a contrary " the state of affairs." Frankly, a refusal to "DO THE RIGHT THING FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL! Instead, substituting comprehensive fraudulent practices within the interdependent system. This invalidates its initial precepts. Thereby, resulting in a catastrophic disintegration of the system itself.
There many types of corruption.
This site distinguishes between two types:
ILLEGAL CORRUPTION
AND
LEGAL CORRUPTION
FIRST: ILLEGAL CORRUPTION
THE CRIME OF CORRUPTION:
Any person who directly or indirectly accepts, agrees or offers to accept any gratification from any other person to benefit him-/herself or any other person is guilty of the crime of corruption. The person who makes the offer or inducement to another to commit a corrupt practice is also guilty of the crime of corruption. Although there is an active and a passive side to the crime, it is important to note that in the legal corruption both parties are equally guilty of corruption.
05-09-2008
MIXED ILLEGAL AND LEGAL CORRUPTION
Political and Financial Corruption
Political corruption is the use of a position of public trust for dishonest gain. This is our lowest-level in political behavior. It creates a dysfunctional political system. Where public officials seek illegitimate personal gain ["IN ANY FORM?] through actions or inactions. Guilty of dispicable behavior INJURIOUS to the Nation's best interests Forever staining themselves as not being worthy of trust - an ethical traitor to his\her Nation.
LOBBYISTS' CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS TO CANDIDATES
Corruption can be election fraud. Does anybody remember what transpired during the 2000 election in especially in Florida?
We must confront THE TRUTH:
Is not the payment of lobbyists' campaign contributions [representing the corporate-wealth class] to political candidates a legal form of corruption? Unquestionably, it is a legal; nevertheless, does it not eventually induce corrupt action, inaction; or, in omission to act by the candidate or official? Is it not, in reality, a legal means of legal bribery? An implicit or explicit "legal deal" to subsequently favor THE FEW after election. Is this not a subversion of our constitutional ideals and institutions; destroying the integrity of our republican-democracy.
Mixed legal and illegal political and financial corruption can economically devastate a society. Think? Has there not transpired a vast transfer of wealth from the middle-class and the poor to the corporate-wealth class? A vast transfer of trillions of dollars. Commencing: during the term of George Bush The Father. [Remember the savings and loan scandal? Costing Middle Class taxpayers $500 billion to date.] Presently, the inexcusable, unnecessary transfer of 5.6 Trillion in tax rebates to The Rich.
In economic efficiency, cost\benefit is utilized to create the highest financial return at the lowest possible cost. Nevertheless, It does not ask if the objectives are socially desirable. Did we not see Katrina with our own eyes? Was the concept of costs/benefits analysis used to ignore assistance to New Orleans? Was Katrina not really a cynical economic evaluation of public policy. Callous analysis of cost-effectiveness only; abandoning the conspicuous human devastation. To date, this best illustrates how illegal and legal corruption contaminates our government and business institutions. We must each ask ourselves? Does this not inherently violate the principles upon which our nation was founded?
[THE MOST EMBARRASSING OF OUR TOPICS: Please see our "WHEN:" STATEMENTS later, included for those skeptical of our conclusions]
05-10-2008 AN HONEST, HUMBLE, UNBIASED, NONPARTISAN, REASONED CONFRONTATION OF OUR NATION'S PROBLEMS
LARGE-SCALE COMPREHENSIVE PERVASIVE AMERICAN LEGAL CORRUPTION?
Large-scale social corruption is a broad based, evolutionary process. It has emerged as a social pathology throughout America. We have lost our sense of civic virtue. [Aristotle]. General dishonesty reigns supreme. The lusting after money has infectiously spread throughout almost every sector. Like a cancer corruption taints almost all processes. Regarding potential dishonesty by: corporations, directors, executives, managers, employees, elected officials . Americans sense HIGHER=UPS will cunningly mismanage money transactions. This dishonesty is considered commonplace. People are convinced their economic\financial relationships will somehow be rigged contrary to our interests. As a result, this is the causation of much anger on the part of the victimized the middle class and working poor. As The Economist says, "We are no longer making a larger economic pie in which all can share! Instead, paper wealth is created for the FEW; if you know what I mean." Think about it? Are we not all on edge? Anxious? Fearful. A national sense of uneasiness? Something is not right? That is, what our financial future and security will be?
WHAT HAS SO IMPAIRED OUR ETHICAL\MORAL JUDGMENTS?
Not only is corruption STEALING; worse, it is directly related to how citizens perceive their personal code of ethics. Americans have become desensitized by repeated high profile scandals in the government and corporate sectors. Every day, we observe obvious misrepresentations, outright lies, fraud and misinformation\disinformation. These are considered acceptable conduct.
Inescapably, Americans decisions inevitably become entrapped in repeated ethical dilemmas. Unavoidably, they must interact with government officials\corporations\businesses. People feel compelled [coerced] to cooperate. If ethically challenged, they conveniently change direction from doing the RIGHT THING! Adjusting their behavior to act unethically. Simple put: People are not doing what is RIGHT! Doing THE RIGHT THING is a joke. It has become a commonplace for individual Americans "to learn and know the game- the score"
THE NOSTRUM: "It may be legal, but is it ethical -the right thing to do?" CONSTANTLY RINGS IN OUR EARS.
HOW-TO REVERSE THESE PROCESSES?
ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN:
Bluntly, we must admit the United States has become a corrupt society. If not, we will be unable to initiate the imperative 21st Century High-Tech Manufacturing Base necessary for our continued existence. The Philosopher: "Who can build a new home over a cesspool. The home may appear picturesque; nevertheless, the stench will compel the owners to flea." Unless we change our way of thinking - initiating a new national Code of ethics, failure will result. Why? Because contemporary unrestricted greenhead-thinking will misappropriate the necessary venture capital."
CAN AMERICANS CHANGE THEIR THINKING TO BEGIN ANEW?
CREATE A NEW NATIONAL CODE OF ETHICS?
WE HAVE NO OTHER OPTION:
Unquestionably, High-Level Systemic corruption has disrupted; if not, virtually disabled America's progress. . Impaired future prosperity. It is blamed as a primary causation of America's increasing downward spiral. Meaning: Eventually, social corruption catastrophically destroys institutional harmony\cooperation necessary for a country's continued existence.*

10-13-2007 THE FORMER POLITICIAN'S PERSONAL VIEW
REGARDING WHETHER ELECTED OFFICIALS ARE "INCOMPETENT FOOLS" OR, IN REALITY SOMETHING ELSE = VERY DISTURBING [A majority of Site participants oppose this opinion.]
"My involvement in politics [for approximately 10 years] taught me one absolute truth. NO INCOMPETENT PROFESSIONAL POLITICIANS - ELECTED OFFICIALS - EXIST! THEY ARE NO FOOLS. Rather = "Dumb like Foxes." Sadly, everything which is accomplished or unaccomplished - is with FULL INTENT and DESIGN.
"THE GAME and THE SCORE"
Every career politician knows: "THE SCORE" - 'WHAT THE GAME IS - and EXACTLY what are and are not THE RULES by which THE GAME must be played. Otherwise, it is their POLITICAL-CAREER DEMISE! Losing their financial ADVANTAGES, their perqs, respected stature; and, most importantly, their beloved post retirement = SECURITY.
For Instance: 1. The lack of Katrina relief was an intentional decision NOT to fully assist the suffering Poor.
2. The Iraq War: is continued for the enrichment of Monopolistic Corporations - the Military Industrial Complex. If there are NO ETERNAL WARS, then no Military Industrial Complex could survive. Wars, historically, always prosper the very wealthy - FEW - at the PERSONAL EXPENSE of the MANY. OIL, Giveaway Contracts etc ???
3. The tax relief for the top 3% is - as is the tax code itself - simply a transfer of wealth from the Middle-Class and the Poor to the WEALTH and INVESTOR CLASS.
No matter if a Depression occurs. As JFK [in effect ]stated "Wealthy people do very, very well in a Depression. It is the People who suffer. Rich people could care less."
In other words: THEY-GOT-THEIRS-AND THEY-WANT-MORE! And do not care HOW they GET IT. China? Globalization etc. So much for patriotism.
NO, NO, NO!
There are no INCOMPETENTS, FOOLS OR IDIOTS running our beloved Country. Rather, shrewd schemers. Knowing exactly what they are doing. Most certainly, the horrific consequences to be inflicted upon The Middle Class and the Poor.
THE EXCUSE
The excuse [we daily lie to our disheartened selves] is: "These elected official are: dumb, stupid; or, out of touch with the Public's needs. To the contrary. We need this SELF-DECEPTION. Otherwise, we would abandon hope, trust and belief in our wonderful Nation. However, down deep inside, most realize, we are deceiving ourselves.
A TIME FOR INDIVIDUAL COURAGE
Rather, let us be like our FOUNDING FATHERS. Courageously, CONFRONT the DISHEARTENING - DISTURBING TRUTH. For as Jesus well-knew: "The TRUTH shall set you free!" Yes. The TRUTH is TRUTH! If we do not face it squarely - confront it, America is lost. Yes. It is that serious.
THE FORMER POLITICIAN [With my courageous young Friend "The Cynic.]
P.S. I tortured myself regarding authoring this. Nevertheless, as a matter of conscience, I could no longer silently sit by in self loathing. Yes. Most of my colleagues disagree with me. However, most of them never served either in the military; or, public office. I regret delivering this bitter to my loved fellow Americans. Some want to blame the messenger. That is fine. At my age, I COULD NOT IMAGE PASSING-OVER without being TRUE to my conscience.
THE MAJORITY VIEW THE MORAL SUASION APPROACH The vast Site majority still possess more faith; and, give more credit in our elected officials. Of the philosophy = moral suasion and "constituent persuasion" is more effectiveness than our friend - the beloved Former Politician - believes. Democracy is a difficult and exhaustive system. It can be disheartening - A FRUSTRATION - attempting to protect, defend; and, move toward positive realistic change. So, it has always been. Therefore, we disagree with our beloved Former Politician; and, call upon citizens - nationwide - to rise up in promoting of Public - National Interest Issues.
Let us Join The Struggle TOGETHER!!! Most of US

SEPTEMBER 16, 2008 IN CONCLUSION: RUINATION OF AMERICA’S REPUTATION. TORTURE! THE WORST FORM OF DEMOCRATIC HYPOCRISY! After our research, we concluded our American National Ethos, one way or another was imperceptibly damaged. Distorted from the pristine principles in our formative years, into an unrecognizable conflicting vision. America, in some indefinable way, disregarded its intrinsic moral standards. [We do not mean sexual values. The sexual immorality of the Flesh our brothers and sisters on the Right constantly criticize. Such historical vexing sexual immorality; is, and always will be mankind’s irresolvable weakness.] Rather, our present “VALUES DILEMMA” is a deeper - more profound puzzlement. Something more fundamental, obscure, and troubling. Its disquieting nature extends persistently into our society’s intrinsic core. Jeopardizing the very rationale for our continued existence. It is an impairment of“Our National Spiritual Identity.” Imperceptibly, we lost our“National Moral Compass.” A society-wide disavowal of previously cherished: ethics, ideals, and moral principles. Once automatically accepted as self-evident Truth. “The Moral Cement” unifying us as one Nation. The best illustration of this composite moral rationale resides in: “The Constitution” [Especially, the evolutionary nature in Madison 9th and 10th amendments], The Declaration of Independence, and The Gettysburg Address. This foundational Ethos established moral boundarieswe, as a nation guaranteed to the World, we would preserve without violation. Prior generations cherished them so, prepared to sacrifice all for them. To expend their treasure; even, voluntarily lay down their lives WHY?TORTURE IS HYPOCRISY UNACCEPTABLE IN DEMOCRACY! There exists a conspicuous illustration of this loss? The legalization of TORTURE! . The current State of our Nation contradicts this. America appears orphaned from its past ethical greatness. Something, we believe, the Founding Fathers would passionately condemn as a national embarrassment! This Site’s membership witnessed [with repugnance] our government’s declaration of the right to TORTURE detained individuals. Claiming torture as a self-protective right of government beyond the reasonable restraints of“Due Process of Law?” In the World’s eyes, this moral psychosis, denouncedas brazen HYPOCRISY! This is a primary causation of the loss our national reputation. Culminatingin condemnation throughout the Globe. Incredibly, America once beloved by all presently is feared and hated!On One hand, we hypocritically preach the blessings democracy liberty and human rights; yet, on the other, indiscriminately practice torture. [In whatever government fabrication of Orwellian-speak utilized to classify it!] Thereby, violating our declarations of democratic principles; while attempting imposition of democratic institutions at the point of a gun. This is devoid of any moral justification! It is inherentlyevil misconduct beyond the bounds acceptable civilized behavior. So egregious; it cannot be ignored. Therefore, we conclude, if torture has occurred [proven by due process of law; as, War Crimes]; then, those responsible federal officials must receive the harshest sanctions of law. Why is this so important? We are convinced, without re-establishment of our National Ethos; there is little moral justificationto predicate the USA’s continued existence. No guiding rationale for our lives in the pursuit of The American Dream.Our principal line of reasoning is:OUR NATION MUST RENOVATE ITSELF BY GOING BACKWARDS IN ORDER TO PROCEED FORWARD! We must recapture our Ethos inherent in our foundational documents. Why?Without first reestablishing adherence to THE RULE OF LAW, America’s 21 st Century forward progress is impossible. Why? Our country will continue to wonder in bewilderment dispossessed of the moral justification to proceed forward. Devoid of this Ethos, America would failto bring to fruition a 21st Century New America. Incapable of the intensity resilience and willpower necessary to realize Specific solutions. NATIONAL RENEWAL Subsequent to national renewal, We as A People, can proudly advance.Without constantly glaring backwards reproaching others with culpability. As the Philosopher rightly states, “No man can proceed with hislife perpetually incensed blame others for injustices inflicted. Surely, unable to recognize correct course forward, instead, stumbling into miserable failure. Thereby, unable to achieve the betterment of his nature by virtue practiced.” ONWARD! TOGETHER!

SEPTEMBER 13, 2008
PART 5
A JOINT STATEMENT BY THE THEOLOGIAN WITH THE PHILOSOPHER “A Time for Silence; A Time For Harsh Condemnation!” Our abrasive condemnation of the responsible parties and entities is not yet complete. This conduct beyond the parameters of simple critique, rebuke and criticism. This inhumane indecency deserving of the harshest reproach, rebuke; and, if subsequently necessary, to full sanction of due process. Why? Because it risks the continued existence of our America.All cherished and treasured for over 200 years. A disservice to those given their blood, sweat tears and lives in its preservation. An ongoing
Conspiracy of silence
A conspiracy of silence existed time period prior to this coming to light.The proverbial chickens coming home to roost.
For evil to reign supreme.
Mezermerized’ our nation gaze at the blaze of our flaming Rome As if captivated [bewitched] witnessing our own destruction. Yes. We are now convinced:For evil to reign supreme. Good men and responsible institutions merely must remain were silent.Quietly observing. When, to the contrary, humanity is morally obligated, to vociferously protest and condemn [non-violent righteous indignation] against such evil. [Including OURSELVES!]
History
History proves same unhappy truth other civilizations.Trite but true’ those forget lesson history condemned to relive tragedies past.For history is no more than recounting one evil war after another violations of civilized conduct.Proving man a brutish species. Yes. Evil reins supreme when good men remained silent. As a result, the civilization in question collapses under its self-created iniquity. This silence [we admit our own gaily] was the primary principle causation of our beloved of American decline. To our skeptics, we state, open your eyes; awaken from your self-induced slumber. The obvious signs evident all around us. The disheartening thing is all this did not have to take place.Instead, unquestionably, it was of intentional design. As the economist stated” No one is that ignorant!A country cannot export its manufacturing base [en masse]; and, expect to remain a prosperous and heath Nation. Utilizing feigned suede guise of concept globalization. Excuse their dumping of the United States of America the middle-class, and the well being of all citizens.” We agree: No moral justification exists premeditated destruction of the American dream.The ideals principles, and real values upon witch our sovereignty and prosperity, liberty are founded Economic independence is heart of national survival.To do the contrary, is invitation verge of collapse by dissolution of the econic viability of the middle-class and the working poor. Kill The American Dream no further justification for the USA’S continued existence.
GOVERNMENT BY ELISTISTS
AND
ELITIST WANNA BEES
Furthermore, the function of government, and financial institutions are run unreasonable uncontrolled preposterous lack of restraint. Hypocrisy reigns supreme as babbling “do-nothings” ramble ad nausea irrelevant language on inconsequential issues.
CAREERISTS’ BETRAYAL
The truth is, CAREERISTS, in the name of supporting their families, have sold out America. Reckless Corporate Careerists with callous disregard have forsake the national interest of the United States of America substituting primary Allegiance to their corporations. As The Cynic repeats ad nausea, “ My Corporation, My Country!” Nonchalantly, Intentionally, without restraint. The USA has been dismantled, deinsdustrialized. A mere skeleton of its once prosperous self. Our once efficient manufacturing base Ruined. Exporting has For what?To make more MONEY!
THE WEALTH CLASS
SEIZED THE AGENDA.
PROPAGANDA AS TRUTH???
Class Warfare
The common denominator is PROPAGANDA IS POTRAYED AS TRUTH.Class warfare has materialized on an unprecedented scale. Duplicity intentional deception and fraud exude from “The Halls of Power?” Succinctly, THE WEALTH CLASS – The Ruling Class – substituted Propaganda - in meaningless sound bites – masquerading as reality authenticated upon empirical Truth. Where middle class and the poor are repeatedly disadvantaged = victimized by incessant unashamed augmentations of legal and illegal dishonesty = dishonorable misconduct. Incredibly, wealthy individuals participate in this unremitting lawless, immoral corruption. Now, presently well entrenched in our national consciousness. Every day another public deception after another is presented as a misleading explanation. Therefore, we concluded, this public relations gibberish constitutes outright propaganda. Equalivalent to inexcusable disturbing disloyalty.
$10 Trillion Transfer Wealth
To The Wealth Class
CONCENTRATION OF OWNERSHIP AND WEALTH IN the upper 3% - The Wealth Class [Please, study the income graph presented herein]
Our conservative rough estimates evidence at a minimum there was “a transfer wealth” from middle-class and poor to the Wealth Class equaling $10 Trillion. One malevolent example is the unnecessary tax rebates granted the Wealth Class equating approximating 5.7 Trillion alone! Furthermore. Our Site research, calculate approximately half the annual US Income [50%] profits The upper 3% - The Wealth Class - by disgusting exploitation the middle class and the working poor. A terrible blow to American Families. While simultaneously, exploiting the poor foreign nation in fascist state.China in particular. Best Example.Communist country oppression its people while US mfg s use the slave waged labor produce cheaper product sold great price in USA. And, people wonder why the World hates America? This fact is undeniable: It is impossibility for American worker to compete with 50 cents per Diem Chinese slaved-waged laborer. A New model [paradigm] must be designed. Otherwise, continued existence of the United States in serious jeopardy.
ABANDONMENT
THE RULE OF LAW
FOUNDED UPON REASON
Wealth Class greed respects no boundaries – operates without a moral compass. Wealthy criminalsconvicted of crime seem nonchalant. We observed the impossible:wholesale abandonment of the rule of law, its selective enforcement; in conjunction with, an utter lack of economic patriotic allegiance and fidelity to the United States of America. Subsequent we discovery, jurisprudentially speaking, wealthy white-collar criminal received proverbial slapped on wrist.Sentenced to Spend Soft time few years Proverbial Country Club Prison. Furthermore, the aura of guilty nonexistent.White-collar criminal shameless brazen flaunt illicit retiring in where extravagance excess and greed.Later released to keep money stolen spent their ill forgotten money luxury f the rest of the populace or similar crimes to receive hard time in a maximum-security incarceration. We are presently convinced: The John Edwards message of“The Two America's” is indisputable, factual truth. One America for the Wealth Class and another for the rest of us. Did not Martha Stewart serve time in “Camp Cupcake.” Rapacious corporations took advantage of the deregulation process initiated by President Reagan.This national travesty and tragedy, it is something the Founding Fathers would [with full moral justification] have angrily denounced! More to come… Never Forget! America’s most prosperous days are ahead of us! We have only Begun. Onward! Together!Corrections pending....
SEPTEMBER 12, 2008 PART 3 A JOINT STATEMENT BY THE THEOLOGIAN AND THE PHILOSOPHER “A Time for Silence; a Time For Harsh Condemnation!”
In this [sometimes] Valley of Tears and Tribulations, human transgressions are myriad.If a man can accomplish dishonesty without consequences – he will.If power can be molested, so too it will.In life, persistently blatant Corruption takesprecedence over matters of conscience and good judgment.In is the ordinary course of affairs, the inappropriate transforms into second nature.The product of our lesser angel’s reigns over wisdom.As a matter of course, ignored transgressions produce social desensitization -eventual communal breakdown. When Individuals fall into the trap of perpetrate wickedness.Man’s nature the ability to succumbs to fallacious self-deception.Blinded by passionate ambition replaces absent self-introspection.Generating proliferation unintended negative consequences. The wrongdoer’s judgmentis confused with fallacious reasoning and disavowal of wrong.Persuaded his\her malfeasance will profitably advance his\her self-interest.Of course, their objective’s realization is continually accomplished by disadvantaging others.Ruinous to the social order.So too, entire Nations fall astray from virtue and justice. History is replete with examples. Hopefully, the people understand and appreciate the wisdom necessary for their continued existence.Come out of their moral coma awakening to a of consciousness necessary to recapture their greatness. The categorical approach to wrongdoing incorporates:legal and illegal corruption, contravention of personal ethics, culpability beyond negligence or incompetence that referred to as sin. Then, the next step is crime.[The US has 2 Million people incarcerated.In 1985 it was only 500,000.]Instead, acknowledging the reality of widespread wickedness unscrupulous, dishonorable conduct in effect imminent to their extinction. Many will state, “So, it has always been; so, it always will be???” Who of us is without sin?Are we not all sinners? Those denying their “iniquity” is own the greatest transgression of all.Ask JOB! HOWEVER, discouraging, there exists something more ominous than crime. Unspeakable Pernicious malevolence menacing their civilization.It is History’s rare visitor, however, devastating when it occurs.For lack of better terminology, it is SOCIAL EVIL! Conduct above and beyond mere wrongdoing.A collective wickedness injurious to the collective strength and vigor of the nation.One containing unforeseen injurious consequences, which may persist perhaps for generations.Invisibly gradually such inequity permeates andcontaminated a society.A cancer, at first unobserved, which metastasizes to initiate the breakdown of the body politic. Once recognized, it shocks the conscience of all people of goodwill - even the most cynical.Ordinary people are astonished [Bewildered] when confronted its scope. Unbelievably corruptive societal evil can engulf nations.Have we mot observed, such unrestrained evil is brash blatantly actualized in broad daylight. When is the populace not fear mongered not convinced they country is entering upon an unjustifiable war? This is what has ocured in our beloved nation. This Phenomenon has occurred in America to an extent unequaled in our history.It is alarming to comprehend; more problematical to confront andmanage.Beyond reasonable uncertainty, incredibly, America has victimized itselfby a never-ending pattern collective predation. This is corrupting social evil has extensive polluted almost every sector of our society.Only, presently, we grasping the jeopardy in which, our once prosperous nation’s is ensnared.Suggestive of our eventual demise.
This insidious corruption is well established especially in economic, financial and political quarters.Throughout the financial securities markets, the banking system, Federal and State Governments, the bureaucracy, the military, the military industrial complex, religion and the private sector. One Machiavellian theatrical production after another is commonplace. Repeatedly Public witnesses in wonderment one outrageous scandal sham after another?Accountability if a word unknown. Each passing day we await the next madness to unfold. The whole host of official and commercial corruption has desensitized Americans.One week it is predatory lenders wrecking havoc; foreclosing on millions of citizen’s homes.Avaricious greed rapaciously initiated in the investment community.Perpetrators seem unconcerned- Without giving a second thought of the victimization millions. Or, another the investment company or financial banking institution declares bankrupt.Demanding government bailouts. At the middle-class taxpayers expense. All dome with the fear mongering of forestalling economic collapse and resultant depression.
Unregulated monopolist capitalism rapacious invented “one suckers market after another.”Cheering the boom; but unconcerned about the bust.The bubble architects got their[money]; and, then vanished. Stealing away with their ill-gotten gains.Leaving unaware America’s holding empty bag of broken investment dreams. Facing unpleasant retirement options.Promises once made are scorned in contrived, counterfeit Chapter 11 bankruptcy abuses. These corruptors dishonored their fiduciary responsibilities with impunity. Is it not the case, elected official are they’re bribed outright, or to bought by campaign contributions?Is it not true, their official Trustworthiness contradict that of their electorate? As long as they get theirs, they break faith – trust – with the electorate which v admired them.–Trusted them with public service Violating trust–the most innocent virtue.Once lost a society dissintegrates. Bluntly, this extensive iniquity, without reservation, is the direct causation America’s downward spiral. Constant unrelenting Perversion of ethical, financial and “spiritual” morals, ideals and social management.This Site invented the termSOCIOCIDE = to mean the intentional murder of a society.Yes. Murder an Assassination of our previous e prosperous existence. Making us beggar nation dependant upon other nation of hostility and ill-will. .Why urination of the term murder?Because, from our 8 years of research, apparent all this transpired as a result of it was done with premeditation.A malice aforethought in malicious disregard for A’s welfare and continued existence.Bluntly, if this matasizing evil cancer is bonot cut extricated from our society, it will bring about of ruination demise our beloved USA.Within our own lifetime. Americans can be fooled; however, fools we are not. The future is now, and it does not look good. The time for immediate remedial action is upon us. No.Not to save America. Rather, to prepare ourselves to reconstruct a New 21st Century America, after the great train wreck befall us. Can we accomplish this?Damn right we can! Onward! Together!

AN ACHIEVEMENT NEVER BEFORE ATTEMPTED IN HISTORY. YES. AN ESCALATED SOCIETAL JOURNEY ADVANCING FORWARD 100 YEARS AHEAD. YES - THRUST 100 YEARS FORWARD IN THIS "PRESENT FUTURE" [so to speak].

THE PHILOSOPHER
OUR RETICENCE.
NEVERTHELESS, REALITY'S EMPIRICAL TRUTH
Previously, we were reticent whether to express our disturbing concerns. Even though, our conclusions are easily corroborated empirical data. We were concerned (uninformed) skeptics would classify us as hysterical alarmists -- guilty of exaggerating our case. Consensus was reached ONLY when we recognized our uncommunicativeness was founded on what we detested most -- irrational FEAR! Not reasonable fear of an impending immediate hazard to life and limb, but the fear created by the paranoia-mongers in our present times.
Although,, no one prefers to be the bearer of bad news. After heated squabbles, much soul-searching, temptations to abandon our undertaking; eventually, we agreed, a high probability existed: If we did not speak out; perhaps, no one would. That the subsequent public revelation and comprehension of the truth, might be realized too late. Therefore, we agreed we must have the courage to tell the truth of our research study and analysis. REALITY'S EMPIRICAL TRUTH confronting America is bleak beyond gloom and doom. It is understatement, to state, the issues we raise herein are: the most critical threatening questions of our times. The facts are the facts, neither overstated nor exaggerated, staring everyone directly in the face. Even skeptics not disagree with the compelling research presented. These perils are upon us. Commanding immediate resolution.
THEREFORE,
OUR ASSESSMENT AND CONCLUSION
REGARDING THE STATE OF OUR NATION:
After painstaking, scrupulous research, this Site reached the disconcerting depressing judgment: The future of the United States of America is in serious jeopardy.
THE UNSETTLING TRUTH IS AMERICA HAS BECOME:
THE DILAPIDATED OLD WORLD
The fact is, America is no longer the New World. Instead, we have allowed it to, slowly deteriorate into a country someone has described: " AS THE OLD DILAPIDATED WORLD ."
As compared to other prosperous nations in Asia and Europe, America has fallen seriously behind them - technologically, economically. Etc. Although, these nations enjoy a great prosperity produced by modernization. It can be argued, in reality, much of their prosperity was actualized by America's economic generosity and multi-generational fiscal magnanimity. No. As a nation, we should not be jealous of their well gotten progress. To the contrary, all US citizens should not be jealous of their achievements. Instead, we should wish them the best in all endeavors they pursue.
Nevertheless, regarding America's Juxtaposition , in relation to the global community, the truth must be spoken aloud. Contemporaneously, America is at a serious disadvantage, Mandating The United States to transform itself to once again become competitive in the global marketplace. This stark reality must be an awakening to every citizen . Obviously, it is incumbent upon us, to immediately commence the modernization of all areas of our society. To be competitive in the global economy we the must match their efforts achievements.
More precisely, America has no choice. It is this generation's responsibility [No. This is not a task for the next generation,. Rather it is the responsibility of our generation. A time for reasoned, feasible immediate action.] to modernize our nation. As JFK would state, in effect, not only to match the accomplishments of others, but competitively better them. Otherwise, America will be unable to maintain its standard of living. We must enthusiastically seize the initiative of this great challenge.

[Conclusion regarding the WHEN:STATEMENTS.Now, the "THEN STATEMENTS: Placement of specific blame and culpability.]
There was an extensive, sometimes vociferous, debate[argument] regarding whether or not to assign unequivocal fault and culpability upon those “Americans?” ultimately blameworthy for causing ofAmerica’s impending tribulations.In the end, we determined not to affix accusations against particular persons.Even though, they deserve to be exposed.Designated accountable for generating these national perils.Conversely, we resolved it best to communicate in generalities.Nevertheless, steadfastly, our consensus is, to criticize the guilty societal spheres of misguided influence.We agree, blameworthiness must be placed hostile to those who misled our Nation.Created this miserable and dangerous state.Over the last decade, what has emerged is an unspeakable nightmare.[History, will criticize such corporations and their associates for barefaced dishonor, disloyalty and betrayal.]
