But there are simply no other solutions that make any sense whatsoever.

One way or another...evil now lives at the very top of our political food chain.

Call it what you will.

Understand it however you must.

It is real.

And it is attempting to bring the world down. That's its job.

For thousands of years the wisest among us have battled with this problem.

How to describe "evil".

But upon ONE thing they are all in agreement.

It exists.

It has been said that Satan's greatest achievement of all was to convince mankind that he did not exist.

Now I am all for metaphor when dealing with that which is too large to see. Call it Satan, call it the destructive force of the universe, call it Kali, call it whatever the hell you MUST.

BUT DO NOT MAKE BELIEVE THAT IT IS NOT THERE.

Do not make little jokes when someone tries to confront its reality.

And when it rises to power...as it has done REGULARLY in the history of humankind...do not avert your eyes or make disingenuous references  to grains of salt and tinfoil hats. That is the Chamberlain gambit.

"Peace in our time."

With real evil?

Nope.

Ain't happeneing.

And REAL evil just grows and grows and grows.

We are still not to the Auschwitz/Blitzkrieg level yet. But the same kinds of people are amassing more and more power. And the fire THIS time is going to be nuclear.

Bet on it.

So we sit and make believe that by compromising with it...by electing "better" Dems who are not REALLY better, only more devious...we are solving things?

"Peace in our time" said Chamberlain.

"He's not such a bad guy AFTER all."

Right.

NewParty '08!!!

Better to go down fighting.

Do not go gently into that good night.

And I do not care one WHIT upon which side of the political fence a good man stands.

"I like a man who fights with a grin on his face". Winston Churchill

Yup.

Now look at THIS motherfucker.

The very definition of the banality of evil.

And his results?

The evil that arises from the acceptance of banality.

Are the mainstream Dems any LESS banal?

Not on the evidence that I have seen they are not.

Not very damned many of them, anyway.

And not the ones who are really in charge.

Remember the '04 DemRat Convention?

Yup.

Those banal fools.

"Lieutenant Kerry reporting for duty."

I nearly blew a GASKET at THAT one!!!

After his handlers "ARRRGGGH"ed a real candidate right out of contention.

And...again, on the evidence and according to the results...I was right.

NewParty '08!!!

Too late to fuck around anymore.

Armageddon really IS upon us if we don't take care of business.

No more gradualism.

It's quantum leap or die time.

That's all there really is to say about it..
