"I like Bush because he's decisive, even when he's wrong..."
John Doe >> American Voter.

kAble..And so it came to pass...
In the year of our Neo-con Lord, 2004...

The New World Order: Act II...
>> Patriotism, Faith and the Truth of Consequence >>

Damn...
I feel so warm and fuzzy right now...
Slipping into the hysteria...
Into the muffled beats of the War-Drums...
Into the Star & Stripe ether of a 'Safe Embrace...'

All unite...
Ease the polarity of your delusions...
Tis the "Season of Hope..."
Upon us...

A democratic fucking paradise lovingly tended by family, faith and a million-or-so-Jesus freaks...
godammit vOya...
What the hell happened?

vOyA > It's the 21st century nuclear expLosion....
where everything seems to be disintegrating....

Logic....
Reason....
Morality....

You know....
the fundamentals of our very seLves....
The very core of our Humanity....

And so....
the legend of Ohio is born....
the swing-state of 2004....
the crucial key to our future....
so damn mired in the past....
I mean....
70% of you who bothered to vote....
who were able to vote....
using Ye Olde punch-card system!

What the fuck is that?

People of the "Greatest Democracy On Planet Earth...."
surely you would expect the best technology....
the best Standardized System
to ensure the most Democratic process of all....
[You know.... VOTING....]
was protected against....
ahh....
corruption.

Pssst....
Don't you know....
if the FBI's computer system wasn't so grossly outdated....
well, maybe....
all that intelligence might have made some sense....
might have averted YOU KNOW WHAT....

Mmm....
EVERY VOTE COUNTS....
Are you sure about that?

[Whispers]

Your Master is whipping Liberty's ass....
Can't you hear Her screams?

"As a country we had more fear than faith in our own ideals on Tuesday."
- Al Deluca, American Voter.

KABLE "Greatest Democracy on Planet Earth..."
Yes...
Three cheers...
Democracy = dictatorship...
Democracy = embracing difference...

Yes...
Three cheers...
For a nation-in-denial...
Blind-sided by a situation-of-thy-own-making...
Polarized and crippled by fear...

dear Mr President...
All charisma, cockiness...
and...
well...
decisiveness...
You mention a "fair and proper election in Iraq..."
Surely you jest, Sir...
Kinda ironic don't you think...?

Deception breeds deception...

Mr Kerry...
Shame on you too, for conceding so damn quickly...

Mmm...
"EVERY VOTE COUNTS..."
Because that's the true nature of democracy...
Because partisan is THE new lingo...
Because Amerika's-Tour-Of Duty...
Is about to get a whole lot fucking worse...

"Tis-better-to-strike-than-be-struck..."
A colleague whispers in my ear...
It depends on the provocation, babe...
The circumstance...
Always...

BECAUSE...
WE ARE NOW...
>> OFFICIALLY >>
Our own worst Weapon of Mass Destruction...

vOyA > Now....
definitely....
and our pLanet knows it too....

You know....
all that cLimate change....
the gLobal warming....
The WMD's of Humanity's existence....

Gluttonous fucKers that we are....

But hey....
come Mr President....
show us your truest seLf....
show us what you mean by this "Season of Hope".

Come on....
Do you mean the Peace Process?
Ratifying Kyoto?
Is that it?
Is that your idea of this new Land of Hope & Glory?

Freedom....
Democracy....
Diversity....

Ahh....
Liberty waLking free from death row?

Now....
wouldn't that help save our species....

KABLE Sweetie...
There's very little that can halt our decay...
That's the beautiful poetry of being human...

It's always IN the contradiction...
Always in the slow and fucking torturous...
Self-inflicted genocide...

And liberty...
Well...
>> She's a mere ideology >>
A PVC red-white-and-blue lapdancer...
Eternally admired...
Never to be tasted...

From the Bush-ian protestor standing at the juncture of Times Square...
Placard slung low like a freakin' noose around his neck...
To the Stepford-Wife main-lining Prozac in downtown Ohio...

Faith is a virus...
For the Greatest Democracy on Planet Earth...

end of act II...

>> to be continued...of course >>
