2008 vs. 1984

Proles, your name inspired some research and recollection of 1980's, thank you. Though you may be of the outer party mocking us proles, it matters not. For I am a prole, the working class with a....

Ah, I can see it now, soon our "Ministry of Love" will take over a Guantanamo, the newly formed "Ministry of Peace", will begin the end of conflict, even if it requires a bigger war to attain economic balance,.. er,..peace.

What brings this up that with the ever increasing unemployment, here in the United States where real numbers suggest over ten percent currently in Texas, and in the rust belt to twelve percent and higher,.. though the 'official' number is just five to six percent, and 'slightly' higher.

How is China doing? The number of people make even low unemployment percentages devastating, how to maintain control becomes the real issue. Just as in Orwells book;...that the motivation of the Inner Party is not to achieve a future paradise but to retain power, which has become an end in itself.

And the ever shifting alliances maintained an ever existing war, not for property or control, but to maintain the economic engine while controlling the population numbers through patriotism and war.

In my short lifetime since 1954 we've (U.S.) warred with China through Vietnam and Korea, then been friends in economic boons. Been in a cold war with Russia and allied in the UN. We've sided with Iran to only now wonder about Iran, Set up Qaddafi to take him down, the same with Saddam. Noriega comes to mind as well.

The "Ministry of Peace" at work.

And soon to be passed here is the "Fairness Doctrine", where freedom of speech is taken away for 'fairness'. Any 'right wing' publication and news letter, radio show or broadcast will be "Required" to be fair,.. but who makes that decision?
Maybe the new "Ministry of Fairness"

Obama Media Mania

Not so sure if his attempt at dirision will work, read first thing this morning how McCain voters don't even need to vote, its over. What kind of sad media reporting is that, the only races being played out is not the presidential race. We have highly contested seats in congress, bonds and liquor/road/police issues being on the ballot.

I am finding more wrong with this whole election, not just Obama or McCain, but the strong feeling 'We The People' are being sold a bill of goods. The over the top 'selling and marketing' of the presidential office like it is product to be used to control us. A marketing tool is being displayed out on how much crap will the people actually believe, how many changes in policies and taxes can be thrown before us where we know less now than in the beginning on where either stand, on all but one or two items.

We know the pro-lifer, we know the pro-deather, we know the Alaskian, the Delaware and the Arizona and the Illinois. Tax plans have changed and grown, shrank and from high of 250 thousand to the low of 42 thousand will be effected and every one inbetween, beyond and before those ammounts. Big whoop.

The change man Obama has all of the existing and prior cabinet and bankers of yore, including the same foriegn relations committee chairman as his runnnig mate. Change my ass, just change from the same of one party to the same of the other.

Obama people cheery and bright in the streets, to others they look like the buyers of a lemon, but don't know it till the thirty day no exchange period is over.

just words, just speeches
