Many polly’s use “move forward” too, but, nobody knows which direction forward is, anymore. Based upon 178 degrees of left and right and… 178 degrees of up and down, there are actually 31684 directions that could be labeled as “forward”. :)

Look out for funny little repeated cock’n'bulls like… “the bottom line is” (WHOSE bottom line?) and… “the fact that…” (trying to railroad you into believing something is a fact when its actually opinion).

Railroading and schmooze comes in all sorts of “you’ll buy into anything” flavors. Its the magic of PR and spin. Painting and makeup. Dressing and perfuming dogturds to look and smell like Malibu Barbie.

But these statements also contain numerous tacit promises. “Defending US interests” promise, implies that ALL americans stand to gain s’mthing from wars on terror. And not to mention that US wld find terrorists. Or that there is even one or two in afgh’n. And find him in a crowded village sleeping in own bed!

The statement “ending the war in iraq by yr 09″, if it was made, wld have been an explicit promise. If the yr was ommitted then the promise was a fake whether ex- or implicit.

Just ab. in any political or priestly utterance one can discover a promise.
Even holding an election holds hidden promises. An election promises that new executives wld bring improvements for all people or it implies that the previous administration was dumber, more corrupt and thus it had to be changed.
New elections promise tacitly that democracy wld improve as a result of change.
“A change we can believe in” is an obvious promise but so inane, vacuous that i upon hearing it asked will americans go for it? They did, i think!
tnx

We need the “‘positive” change promised in the Obama campaign.

Well that was all BS, as with most politicians. It was nothing but marketing slogans intended to dupe the gullible sheep. Obama’s voting record showed that it was BS.

“Politician 101″ requires a candidate to say anything to dupe those who will allow themselves to be duped. “Politician 101″ requires a candidate to talk about “building bridges” and “pushing the envelope” and “rolling my sleeves up to get the job done,” and “drawing a line in the sand” and “I’m resigning to spend time with my family.” (That’s just a partial list of the required political language they think they must routinely spew).

Most politicians are like a brick. They mostly look the same and act the same, especially the D and R war criminals in congress and in the White House today.

We need those whose very jobs are to protect our health and welfare to do so; to change their ideas and practices to protect all our citizens, our children, our pets, our livestock, our agriculture, our industry and our environment, NOT keep padding the pockets of a few. No one can afford to continue using consumer product or environmental toxins. The price tag is too high, and the bill is fast coming due. The rapidly increasing numbers of those disabled by Toxically Injured testify to that.

We believe if one isn’t a part of the solution, one is part of the problem. I applaud Sheila and others for their efforts for a safer and healthier environment, food chain, etc.

REVOLUTIONARY (DIRECT) DEMOCRACY

That old man river,
He just keeps rolling along.

WHEN since 2000 was the last time that any petition had any bearing on these trash in power?…considering the state of things today. That’s just the reality of the situation.

Lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$ and corporate thieves are in control. Not petitions.
