The fact that Congress has even bothered to bring to a vote the matter of AIG bonuses should signal loudly that the Golden Age of Parasites has arrived. Senator Chris Dodd denies inserting language into the mystery-shrouded economic stimulus package that was so quickly passed by both houses of Congress. The White House denies prior knowledge of the bonuses, even though staffers admit to it. Treasury Secretary Geithner himself crafted some of the foundational language of the bailout arrangement while George W. Bush was still in office. And now, every congressional aide’s best friend, Barney Frank,  is screeching that a 90% tax on those bonuses is justifiable. The parasites can now take away anything from anyone. Screw contract law. Screw constitutional guarantees. Screw the Bill of Rights. They can take what they want when they want it with the full backing of an ocean of parasites that now comprises the voting public. Mobocracy has arrived, cheered on by the media.

It’s revealing that only 44 protesters showed up to take a bus tour of AIG executives’ homes, even though every one of them was paid by A.C.O.R.N. with our tax dollars to do so. A crushing mob of reporters and cameramen from around the world showed up to document the circus. At the same time, hundreds of tea parties were being staged around the country to protest the Democrats’ uncontrolled spending and yet nothing has been reported on this groundswell of conservative activism.

It’s difficult to fully explain the motives of TV network programming executives, editorial directors, news writers and reporters. Some of it can be characterized as pure envy and malice — the mainstream media have assumed a rather pompous and sanctimonius position on social justice and economic opportunity without really delving into the causal relationships driving the disparity in income and social advancement. But then, that’s too difficult. It would require getting an education beyond ‘journalism’ or ‘communications’ which is as useful and intellectually challenging as ballroom dancing or basket weaving. No insult intended to the latter. It might require reporters, editors, columnists, newsreaders, producers and all of the other unionized (that’s right, they’re unionized) media ‘professionals’ to actually work hard and think before they open their yaps. It’s much easier to descend into pure envy and malice - the stock in trade of unions in this country. Hey, it worked for the unions.

But the primary reason that media outlets are effectively propaganda machines for the Left is that they’ve been intentionally been purposed to do so. Much like the contagion of leftist thinking that has demolished independent thought on college campuses, the Left has worked hard to spread its infection into the field of journalism. It’s an aggressive form of journalism, where the ‘reporter’ or ‘anchor’ insert themselves into the story, insult or attack their subject, then apply ‘context’ and ‘analysis’ that follows the party line. The strategy has worked extraordinarily well. Ask Sarah Palin. Where there are gaps in the all-out assault on American principles and ideals and those who uphold them, George Soros fills in with hundreds of bloggers funded through his many front organizations. 

Democratic politicians, media boobs and their wealthy patrons are playing with fire. They don’t understand that if the mob gets loose, at some point they too, will become targets. Even Karl Marx understood this. Obama and the Democrats think they can control mob impulses and turn them to their political advantage, much like Mussolini or Hitler did early on in their despicable regimes. History has proven them wrong. Either the actions of the mob descend into utter madness, or the politicians attempting to control the mob become dictators. This should not be America’s fate.

Visit www.howobamagotelected.com for an eyeful of unnerving and infuriating video clips that unmistakably demonstrate the extraordinary influence the electronic media have over elections, the voting process, voter awareness and the functioning of our democracy. The people interviewed in this clips were not morons. But it was astounding to witness how precisely the media cabal can attenuate negative information about Obama or Biden while amplifying erroneous or negative information about Palin and McCain. Please note that Palin takes precedent over McCain. Without her, McCain wouldn’t have captured 45% of the popular vote and Obama would have been voted into office by an apparent landslide. It’s not that Obama was a sterling candidate, even though the media lavished attention on his candidacy and hushed up the questionable aspects of his history and character. It’s simply that John McCain was such a horribly bad candidate. Palin rescued the hapless boob from a horrifying defeat that would have sent the absolutely wrong signal to America and the world. That’s why the media cabal was so intent on destroying Palin, because she kept Obama from claiming an overwhelming mandate that would have empowered him to plunge this country into socialism. As it stands now, some Republicans might even summon up enough courage to object to he more extreme measures proposed.

The parasites and their champions are fully aware that a voter-proof Democratic Party will protect their gravy train. Over the past 125 years, the Democratic Party has come to exemplify the most unsavory aspects of the democratic system, where power and votes are brokered and sold. The Democratic Party has perfected the power-dependency duality of patronage politics. And so, the Democrats felt perfectly justified to thwart the will of the people, put up a dangerously incompetent and ideologically suspect demagogue for President, and gamble with the future of this country for their own short-term gain. This is not an isolated incident. This is the overarching goal for the Democratic Party - they want to make themselves voter-proof. By doing so, they enrich and empower their exclusive constituents: labor and teacher unions, government at all levels, trial lawyers, environmental extremists, government contractors and yes, unbelievably - Wall Street. Surprised? You shouldn’t be. Many of the Wall Street honchos are Democrats because their personal philosophy goes hand in glove with the mindset of other top-tier parasites like union bosses and trial lawyers. After all, as an investor or retiree, you’re just a mark, a source of commissions and fees. This accumulation of money by unions, trial lawyers and wealthy liberals allows the Democrat Party to buy its way into office and then ‘redistribute’ taxpayers’ hard-earned money to friends and political allies. Don’t think that the media cabal won’t ask for real money for being instrumental in getting Obama elected. That’s the way the game is played. Too bad most Americans will never know.

The events in Washington DC are a chilling indicator of just how badly average Americans misunderstand their current predicament. Amidst the applause, the outpouring of joy and nonsensical optimism lies an astounding depth of ignorance as to the motives and intent of the Anointed One and his retinue. The self-reinforcing cycle of bad education and badly educated Americans allows socialists to usurp our economic freedoms. It blinds most Americans to the true motives of a Democratic Party that has abandoned democracy for the unbridled power of a socialist regime. Laura Ingraham’s radio show featured clips of typical Obama fans expressing (or attempting to) their rationale for supporting this newly-minted president. Most of them couldn’t complete a sentence, much less coherently explain why they’re so infatuated with Mr. Obama. Their random utterances were nothing more than mindless parroting of Obama sound bites that had been repeated over and over by the mainstream media in the months running up to this coronation ceremony. They clearly don’t understand what they’ve voted for, who represents them and what will happen once Democrats make themselves voter-proof at every level of government.

Barack Obama knows exactly what he’s doing, as do all of his advisors and departmental nominees. The only person along for the ride is the Gaffemeister himself, the honorable Joe Biden, ably assisted by his wife, whose only priority in life appears to be the endless refinancing of his real estate holdings. And, of course, keeping his son and relatives out of the media spotlight.

As the celebs and rock stars pour into the capital to spend thousands of dollars on overpriced event tickets, limos and hotel suites, the proletariat fill the streets, cheering on the passing of free-market economics and equal opportunity. The TV anchors and print propagandists are beside themselves in apoplectic, eye-twitching ecstacy. But no one in the mainstream media asked how this will all shake out - not in the months since the election and certainly not in the last few days. 

How will the overtly leftist campaign promises of Barack Obama be transformed into government policy and legislation? How will Obama, ably assisted by Nancy Pelosi and Hary Reid, shred the Constitution and destroy everything that makes America different, and therefore, better? It will be obvious. It will be plain and straightforward, and the Republicans will be aghast at how easily a republic can be dismantled and replaced with a totalitarian system. With unbelieving eyes, they will see legislation passed in Congress and signed into law at the White House, confirmed by the Supreme Court and put into action by the bureaucracy. Every last bridge back to a free society and a free market will be set ablaze. And, it will be saluted with great fanfare by the media cabal, academics and the liberal elite. It will be cause for a celebration. Freedom will be snuffed out with guitar riffs and wild applause.

The Anointed One came to Washington during the Christmas season, bringing Her Majestic Bad Self and the two kiddies along, searching in vain for a place to stay. First, they stopped at Blair House, but were turned away, because tradition has it that no President-Elect can occupy that House before January 15, long after the Christmas season has ended. The President offered the Anointed One and his family a pleasant home amongst the soldiers, but Her Majestic Bad Self would have none of it. After all, the Anointed One had called the soldiers butchers and murderers, and it wouldn’t do to live amongst them in the holy season.

The Anointed One offered his family the humble apartment where he stayed whenever there was a need to visit the great capital of the land, which wasn’t very often. But Her Majestic Bad Self refused that, as well, saying it was too small and too humble for their new station in life. And the Anointed One let the scribes and the storytellers and the town criers know that Her Majestic Bad Self was unhappy that the President wouldn’t throw the occupants of Blair House into the street so that the Anointed One and his loved ones could repose in comfort, or had insulted them by offering a home amongst the soldiers. And so the scribes and the storytellers and the town liars ran through the streets, proclaiming that the Anointed One and his cherished family had been turned away by the heartless rulers of the city, who were mean and vindictive because their rule was over, and the Anointed One was soon to assume the mantle of power.

And though the inns of Mayflower and Hilton offered them suites, Her Majestic Bad Self would have none of it, for these suites were for the common people, the peons and certainly not majestic enough for the Anointed One, Her Majestic Bad Self and the kiddy-kins. And so they stayed, fuming, in the cold windy city from whence they came. And perhaps, the Christmas season will find them there, instead of the slightly warmer and party-cloudy climes of the great capital. And there will be hell to pay on a holy day.
