you die George \/w Bunker and Osama \/w Cave
\neach little light lost deminishes us the more
\nwhen we are snuffers of any light indicating life
\nwe become less human than our best intentions
\n9\/11 was a wake-up call for Americans
\nset aside Bush and bin Laden’s lethal logic
\nit requires of a great republic democracy
\nto admit to past and present mistakes
\nelevated consciousness
\n(otherwise known as enlightenment)
\n is what we gain with truth
\nAmerica was in it’s infancy when we allowed slavery
\nand we have mostly (not totally) corrected this mistake
\nColonizing has a long history of brutality
\nand is not disconnected from Osama bin Laden’s complaint
\nThe nightmare of our founding fathers
\nof king and empire is in our face today.
\nThe whole world Is watching.
\nThe Osamas of the world today have one weakness
\nand it is their human atrocities and degregation of women and
\nlike all abusive behavior, prefers to be hid in a closet
\nor some corner of creation…one does not change behavior
\nby killing hordes to give the survivors freedom
\none shames them by making it public for the world to see.
\nBushs (and Dicks) of the world today have many weaknesses
\nthe deadliest one being not to admit to any wrong doing.
\nIke’s first impulse was right
\nthe military\/industrial\/congressional complex
\nis powerful…behold…
\nlast night in the House of Representatives the verbal bombastings
\nwere more about how their seats were bought, than spyware
\nwith a few exceptions, most notible to me was
\nRep. Anna Eshoo, Half Moon Bay, CA
\nwho spoke as eloquently as Ben Franklin when he said,
\n“They that can give up essential liberty
\nto obtain a little temporary safety,
\ndeserve neither liberty nor safety.”
\nIn World War I we were told
\n“this was a war to end all wars.”
\nWe were told the same in World War II.
\nToday we are asked to give up a BIG lot of liberty
\nfor what looks like to the rest of the world
\nPerpetual War.<\/p>\n
What happens when a big light goes out?
\nSame thing as when a little light goes out.
\nWe die.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
