"Well,
Jordan, you're not going to believe what state I was in
when I heard about the terrorist attack. I was in Florida.
And my chief of staff, Andy Card -- actually I was in a
classroom talking about a reading program that works. And
I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and
I saw an airplane hit the tower --
the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot." And I said, "It
must have been a horrible accident." But I was whisked
off there -- I didn't have much time to think about it, and
I was sitting in the classroom, and Andy Card, my chief who
was sitting over here walked in and said, "A second plane
has hit the tower. America's under attack." G.W.BUSH
"So,
behind the democratic facade and the bipartisan ritual, a de
facto military dictatorship prevails, which endorses and enforces
the global ‘free market’ system on behalf of dominant
economic and financial interests. To effectively build their
‘legitimacy’, both the Democrats and Republicans need
to uphold the falsehoods behind the so-called "war on terrorism".
Sustaining the "freedom and democracy" rhetoric is
not only part of this bipartisan strategy, it is also part
of the process of building a totalitarian State in America
under the guise of a functioning democracy. Let us be under
no illusion: the 2004 presidential elections will not result
in a significant change of direction." CRG
"There
is a difference between being an optimist and being a fool.
An optimist is somebody who looks at bleak facts and decides
to make the best of the situation that they can. A fool is somebody
who looks at bleak facts and decides to ignore them because
they are too upsetting. If you are an optimist, you will deal
with the reality of Peak Oil in a realistic way that optimizes
humanity's chance of surviving Peak Oil and building a prosperous
post-oil civilization. If you are not willing to deal with Peak
Oil in this way, you are a fool who will be dead within 20 years.
Peak Oil does mean that the end of the world as we know it is
at our doorstep. It also means that we have a chance to create
a new world in which humanity lives in harmony with itself and
the earth. Such a lifestyle is no longer simply "the right thing to
do". It is now a necessity if we wish to survive as a
species." Life After
the Oil Crash
"The only way
to curb demand is to pull the plug on global economies, starting
first with the already partially cannibalized US economy.
Our manufacturing has been stolen or given away for "spare
parts." So have our savings, our Constitution, our resources, our
credit, our credibility, our confidence, our manufacturing
base, our jobs; and soon our houses, our personal bank accounts
and ultimately our hope. The United States is being liquidated
after a fait accompli merger and acquisition. The bottom
line turns out to be the suicide of the human race as mergers and
acquisitions lead to the final moment of malignant capitalism: "the
last corporation standing." GlobalCorp becomes Global corpse." FTW |
