Abramoff/ DeLay and the End of Days
type: item
description: Looks like there is going to be some serious anxiety for Republican lawmakers as Mr. Abramoff is in some trouble; now that Scanlon has agreed to plead guilty to fraud and return 19 million bucks to the tribes he defrauded in accessing extortionist lobbyist fees in return for using his influence on the hill. Abramoff is a very well connected lobbiest for Republican interests and a close friend of Tom DeLay who is not looking real good as of this indictment. A house of cards crumbles in the breeze. Clinton has consensual sex with a friend and they impeach him. The Republicans extort money like the Mafia and they defend it; go figure.

description: Hmm...I think one of the reasons is that after few months of propaganda through all of the media, most of the people would believe that, say, Coca cola is the poison, and Pepsi is the cure-all medicament (or vice-versa)... http://www.plyrics.com/lyrics/buzzcocks/fastcars.html

description: Thats good; Fast Cars. I am interested to know; when I was younger I read The Hidden Persuaders that supposedly exposed all of advertisings tricks. Do people care? Does the media really have that much impact? When I hear a claim on the media my first instinct is toward skepticism. I really believe nothing I see in ads or on some talking heads program. I do believe the news,( at least the reputable ones), but geez; you gotta believe something. And you have to believe that as proffessionals the newspeople would demand of themselves and their colleagues the best reportage that they can produce. Seems to me it would be a matter of pride. But in terms of accepting whatever is offered by the media be it political or advertising in nature I take it all with a grain of salt; and the louder they shout the less I accept. Isn't everone like that?

description: Thats right; danger is my middle name. "There's a man who lives a life of danger, Every one he meets remains a stranger, For every move he makes; Another chance he takes, Odds are he won't live to see tommorrow." Secret Agent Man Around here everyone must get a new 40k$ car every three years or they feel ashamed. I still drive my 1993 Buick Roadmaster. They ask why I don't change cars; or they give me pitying looks, like I am poor or something.

description: WOW... that`s brave - to ignore the fundations of society... I can tell you that the same consumer "philosophy" rules here, people are buying those cars like crazy - but I can see little "sobering up" lately. Cars are more expensive here, and of course - earnings are smaller, good combination http://lyrics.rare-lyrics.com/G/Gang-Of-Four/I-Found-That-Essence-Rare.html
