USA ELECTION UPDATE - pre-after. . . .

mmmm | 08.11.2006 19:53 | Globalisation | World

update. . . .

Yes, some rearrangement - but - remember - "minderbinder" is neither "rep" or "dem" - but manipulates both, if we let it happen.
The new speaker of the house might need a lot of pressure from both rep grassroots as much as "dem" grassroots to do the inquiring that needs doing to pick up the results of the "exit polls" opinion prioritising - that had "cleaning house" in the USAs democracy as a higher priority than the war, economy or terrorism. . . . thats about a lot deeper things than sex'n'drugs'n'congress - its about the "opinion-forming", perception moulders, lobbying-isnt-the-word, distortion of democracy to the extent of criminality, as much as the overt/subliminal uses of techniques to do so - if it isnt caught THIS term, it might rebound against ALL progress.
The dems might try too hard to "act nice" for the next election, yet also might think they are in a position to work without the "rep" support that cements reforms - the N.I. PEACE PROCESS in the UK shows that this allows things to get done that might otherwise have got characterised as "too radical" - in fact - allow "outer fringe"people to get brought into practical results-based moves that were "utopian" or "too risky" in the past (though in retrospect its amazing how fast they seem the obvious things to have done).
Yes, a resignation, but this isnt about personal "scalps" - even of the puppets that saw themselves as ultra-manipulators. (The vice-pres remains, anyway, for the present.) It might interest people to compare the "biog"s "mainstream" news presents with some of the details easy to discover with some independent research. ( warm greetings in iraq in the ''80s less interesting than the hiking up of the defence estimates in the late 70s ).
The votes that DID GET STOLEN are EVEN FURTHER a priority to chase up when the inquiries actually havent got the "blocks" they had after the last election. The Conyers cttee DOES need to look again at the proof that was mounting up - but perhaps without the assumption that it was the G.O.P that was at the back of the worst scams - a crucial insight.
Chicago, Tenessee, etc, etc . . . . odd outcomes NEED pushing at.
(watch this space - but also - www.freepress.org - in the hope that it might also keep digging up facts about the way G.O.P people with integrity have got stitched up as much as dems-that-refused-bungs . . . . they did keep pushing about the McC primary "upset", after all.)
Mexico was a "very near thing" - or a stitch up - recent elections in other bits of the world, ditto.

THIS IS A FOOT IN THE DOOR THAT WAS SHUTTING DOWN THE FUTURE FOR ALL OF US.
DONT BLOW IT.

ps 1 : a good time to listen to radicals critiques of "democracy" as we do it so far
2 . . . . cheers.
( understatement )
