By playing deaf dumb and blind the republicans have taken the Nairobi Monkey trio made popular by Ernie Kovacs to new heights adding a fourth monkey = no brains
The added advantage communist China has - is they have no social conscience - something America is also rapidly moving towards thanks to the Republican ideology over the past few decades which is consume baby consume - drill for profits!!!!
recent history has proven that unjustified wars can be waged and valueless economic bubbles created for speculation by the wealthy who at the same time hedge their bets - and as a result our small businesses are eliminated and individual assets gobbled up by these same bettors. And when jobs are a form of financial slavery. The corporations who are owned by the wealthy are not only controlling our lives, they are selectively murdering us.. Our media, our Government - everything is controlled by the wealthy!!!!
Corporations in America now have even more power to buy our votes and more and more Americans will become financial slaves as employees - college graduates are recruited as peons and then widgetized to prevent them from leaving their corporate slave masters - employee telephones are bugged - and the autonomous structure of a corporation fits in very nicely with communism -
Now that corporations can openly buy our votes un-abetted by the constitution and as small businesses and self-employed workers are trashed for profit - assets in America will be owned by a smaller number of wealthy individuals and the large corporations they control.
Trust me this is not a mistake - the wealthy who are using the Republican party as a Trojan horse have been moving America in this direction for decades.
The irony is that socialism is taboo in communist china - why?? Because unlike capitalism socialism IS democratic! Yet the corporate communists in this country want us to believe otherwise. Corporations channel our taxes and our consumption in a manner that forces us to spend what we make to survive let alone thrive. Using mind control techniques and propaganda embedded in our life style - such as the media.
Corporatism & capitalism IS ultimately communism. Where one legal entity the corporation - owns everything and has rights that circumvent the rights of individuals and the constitution.
The recent vote by the republican dominated supreme court has equated votes to dollars in a way that one person no longer represents one vote. But the influence of one million dollars could represent one million votes. Not that this isn't a problem already with campaign laws and lobbyists taking our votes away from us before they are even cast.What they say is code for what a SC politician said recently - don't feed them and they can't breed - this isn't restricted to America - this is a mentality that has been long thought but not often spoken about the world.
Truth is a man who earns his living - not because he's a man or because he's white or because his family could afford to put him thru an Ivy league college - or because he's a member of the good old boys club ad infinitum is what makes America great.
Money is not the measurement of a man - his heart and soul are.
It's always easy to lie - something the Republican party has mastered. You don't have to prove a lie and you can't anyway - and it doesn't matter what you say if you don't care what you say.
The trick is to get enough people to believe it - and Republicans do get a lot of people believing the lies for various reasons. It is really a human species problem.
Another thing humans do well is imagine - they imagine that everything our President does is wrong - so guess what - sooner or later they will be right about something. And unfortunately one of those bets the republicans are placing is that there will be another terrorist attack. And the lie will be that our President is at fault - not the President who gave the terrorists a hiatus for the past 8 years.
It's 100% certain we will be attacked just as it was 100% certain the Bush had nothing to do with the fact we weren't attacked at least not based on improving our security systems which were recently proven to be flawed - the groundwork for martial control and forfeiture of individual freedom and the constitution itself were opportunistically attacked by Bush/Cheney using the fear of the public at large to camouflage the deliberate degradation of our national morals and the principals on which our country was founded -
BUT in fact he had a lot to do with why we weren't attacked.
Why would terrorists busy rebuilding and expanding their global terror network want to distract Americans from the Iraq war????? Why would they attack the USA and say "remember us" "remember 911".
Do republicans believe the lies or are they liars themselves?
Anyway - the Republicans are using our President to perpetuate another lie - saying they have good ideas that have been suppressed. This give and take did not work out exactly the way they planned. But that still doesn't stop the lying as evidenced in this article.
Republicans actually need to use the President as cover for the November elections - he's the most popular person in Washington - way, way ahead of congress. And the republican congress polls behind the democratic congress.
This caucus was planned to be an echo chamber of lies. But it backfired. Truth to power.
Everything that is conceived by human minds are fabrications to begin with - those fabrications that everyone believes are considered truth. Those that human minds purposely conceive to deceive others are lies.
The truth is anathema for liars. Lies are a virus - passed on from one human to another to reinforce the conventional wisdom that the lie is truth. Many here prefer not to read the truth. You cannot disprove the truth - you can only attack it.
Human civilization itself is founded on lies. Religion first and foremost. Yes there is a GOD that humans trust in - but that God exists within the minds and souls of each of us.
Are Democrats liars also? Are they human?
That God within each of us allows us to sin and then forgives us our sins.
How else could we live with the fact that 25,000 children die each day from the effects of poverty or that 15,000 Americans lose their health care everyday. Who is responsible? All of us.

Nature sustains life and is composed of life. All that sustains life is derived from nature. Therefore life sustains life.
The destruction of nature is the destruction of life.
Religion is myth.
Myths are not the truth. What is not true is myth.Capitalism is myth. supply and demand are false - nature provides enough supply for all life on earth.
Humans are not life that originated on earth.
Does freedom of speech include embedding and allowing media that lives in our homes 7/24/365 with the ability to lie to influence human thought???
That is the inverse of freedom of speech - a one way street leading to a society controlled by those who control that media. That is where we are RIGHT NOW! The United States of Rupert Murdoch and people of his ilk.
We need laws restricting what we the public are told to the truth - particularly when it comes to something we've been conditioned to watch and listen too from dawn to dusk.
