The future PrezClint2: Four more years of smirking...
"Jane, you need to become more objective," a friend just told me.
But I actually do try to be objective, honest. Everything I write about is
strongly grounded in facts and reliable URLs. However, it is the
subjective emotions tied up in my facts that do count the most.
But in other ways my friend is right and subjectivity does present a big danger, like when people use only subjectivity to make their points and completely forget about facts.
For instance, George Bush 1 got more votes than Michael Dukakis back in
1988 -- although objectively Dukakis was the better man for the job.
But when Bush 1 pulled that Willie Horton nightmare out of his hat, he
stirred up a lot of subjective fear and won instead. http://journal-neo.org/2016/10/17/will-they-really-try-to-kill-president-duterte/
Then Bush 2 stole the 2000 election and Americans let him get away with
it -- not because he was more qualified than Al Gore but because
apparently people would much rather have a beer with George than with
Al.
Hillary Clinton will probably win the 2016 presidential election too
even though Dr. Jill Stein is far more likely to save the world -- and
even Donald Trump is more likely to do a better job in the White House
than the Queen of Chaos herself, head cheerleader for World War 3. But
why would Trump actually do a better job than Clinton? Because both objectively and
subjectively it won't matter if Trump screws up the SCOTUS appointment
if we elect Clinton 2 instead and get a great SCOTUS pick from her --
but still end up dead. http://www.counterpunch.org/2016/10/21/sudan-africa-and-the-mosaic-of-horrors/
According to journalist Robert Parry, "As polls show Hillary Clinton closing in on victory, Official
Washington’s neoconservative (and liberal-hawk) foreign policy
establishment is rubbing its hands in anticipation of more war and more
strife, including a U.S. military escalation in Syria, a take-down of
Iran, and a showdown with nuclear-armed Russia." Doesn't this bother anyone else but me? http://www.smirkingchimp.com/node/69493
But even if PrezClint2 and her friends in War Street and Greater Israel get lucky and
conquer the entire Middle East including Iran, and then Clinton 2 goes on
to capture and subdue Russia's oil fields and even China's legendary
dollar-store manufacturers -- the American people will have still lost
the Great Game entirely. Why? Because, objectively, "war" is the
world's number-one air polluter and all those thousands of F-16s
circling the air all over the world will condemn all us humans to die of
emphysema if nothing else. Cough cough. Not to mention radiation. http://www.intifada-palestine.com/2016/09/57862/
Climate change had been given a huge kick down the road by World War II.
Then the carpet-bombing of Cambodia, Shock and Awe and the attempted destruction
of Libya, Syria, Yemen, etc. have spectacularly made America's climate-change jump shots from far down the
court. And now PrezClint2 is gonna score the final goal for us that will
defeat humanity once and for all. Booyah.
But the main reason I am both objectively and subjectively dreading the
thought of Clinton 2 in the White House next term is because of her
(face-lift-enhanced?) perpetual smirk. I've already been forced to
endure eight long years of Smirking George. Now I've got to endure four
more years of Smirking Hillary too? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGQGwIr47YY
Yeah, I know. Trump smirks as well. But occasionally he doesn't. And Dr. Stein never smirks! http://blackagendareport.com/trump-makes-it-safe-2-vote-green
PS: Objectivity
alone never seems to win elections in America. As Janis Joplin was
always fond of saying, "It's a combination of the two." Hearts and
minds. However, objectivity goes right out the window when Wall Street and War Street have
almost total control of the media -- then it's just a matter of who has
the most money and who can get away with telling the biggest lies.
PPS:
I completely do not understand the way that Americans are thinking
these days. We have a fabulously qualified and totally competent woman
running for president right now --
Dr. Jill Stein -- and yet most Americans are dead set on voting for
gross and weird people like Donald Clinton and Hillary Trump. This fact
truly makes me
wonder where Americans' heads are at right now -- and what other parts
of their
bodies they seem to be using to think with instead of their brains. https://jillstein.nationbuilder.com/donate
