When Did the Gormless GOP Congress Become A Cult of Greed and Violence?

BuzzFlash,  

BATON ROUGE, La. – A handful of Republican governors are considering turning down some money from the federal stimulus package, a move opponents say puts conservative ideology ahead of the needs of constituents struggling with record foreclosures and soaring unemployment.

Though none has outright rejected the money available for education, health care and infrastructure, the governors of Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alaska, South Carolina and Idaho have all questioned whether the $787 billion bill signed into law this week will even help the economy.

"CULTS" DEFINED. WHY IS IT A PROBLEM.

The word "cult" describes a relationship between a leader and a group, or
less commonly between a pair of individuals, where the leader utilizes the
techniques of thought reform. A cult will be characterized by these two
behaviors:

1. It does not tell the truth about itself.

2. By means of unrestricted use of psychological and social control
techniques, it makes its members unable to resist its influence and
authority. (snip)

While most cult leaders become wealthy, the aim of these groups is
to acquire power over others.

Outline for a Talk on Cults, Thought Reform and Mind Abuse (Trinity Communications/The Catholic Resource Network)

Just a couple of articles about cults and the behaviors of cults. Can any of us Americans, Democrats or Republicans, give a reasonable excuse for the Republicans in Congress, employees of the people, and their behavior to stand united against the stimulus package which was watered down to please them in the first place, which may not be enough to start our economy moving again, yet, they are the cause of these problems, due, especially, to the last eight years of complete support for the Bush criminal and treasonous regime?

Bush and his cohorts in crime refused to act and protect this country before 911. They did warn a few people not to fly commercial airlines. That, in itself, was a treasonous act against their oaths of office. They took that horrible act of violence after 911, and used violence against the innocent people in Afghanistan and then invaded Iraq against all reasoning, saying they were looking for WMD. Is there any thinking American who hasn't realized by now that if Bush thought Saddam had WMD, he would never have invaded Iraq, because Saddam was the type of guy who would have used them, and that would have made Bush look like a fool, however, WMD or not, Bush was and still is a sociopathic fool. He doesn't feel a thing about these problems he has caused, and he never will unless he is given the awakening of a trial.

War for profit. Think about it back then, when Bush landed on that ship, with everything except a Superman cape, all a media show . . . tore down a statue of Saddam, all the while, the media pounded the drums and supported this treasonous regime . . . eight long years of debt, death, and destruction without accountability and these actions have caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women, and children. And, as the flag-draped coffins of Americans arrived home, they forbid any pictures or news reports. Why? So, people would be completely ignorant of the deaths, and the number of deaths, which, to this day, with the wounded and the dead, we still aren't sure. It never was about protecting the privacy of the families of these soldiers. They couldn't care less. If they did care, our military would not have been put them into a criminal invasion of shock and awe in the first place.

Their lives, along with the lives of the Iraqi people meant nothing to these Republicans running this violent show. The members of our own Congress supported these horrendous acts of violence in Iraq and Afghanistan, multiplying the hatred for the US by the hundreds of thousands. Bush never did go after bin Laden. He was a friend of that family, which to Bush, surely meant a certain amount of loyalty to that family. Because Bush, himself, is very big on loyalty, that is the way he chose the individuals who filled about 3,000 jobs in his administration. Loyalty above all else.

Judging from the behavior of the Republican members of Congress, they do not feel that they should support any attempt to bring this country back from total destruction. And, they are going around the TV circuit talking against a program that we Americans actually have no choice . . . it has to be done because of what they have done to this country. It's insanity and leadership at its worst. But, hey, that is how all of our problems came about . . . leadership at its worst.

They (Bush/Cheney and the GOP in Congress) think the American people are stupid. Then, to support the racism in this Bush GOP political cult, we had the cartoon this week of police killing a chimpanzee, which people said, well Bush was called a chimp . . . yes, but there was never any violent cartoon regarding Bush. If there had been, the person or media responsible probably would have been arrested, because people got arrested for protesting, for tee shirts, for bumper stickers, and activists' names were planted around the country at every airport to be harassed, not to forget the invasion of privacy by listening in on Americans' phone calls. Doesn't that type of governing sound cultist and abusive in nature? It sure isn't American democratic ideology.

After the Clinton years, and after the criminal actions of the Supreme Court and the election fraud during both elections, plus the following eight years of doing just what they wanted to do regardless of the consequences that we Americans are suffering from today . . . make your own judgments. Americans, this criminal Bush GOP have always told us to take care of ourselves, nothing has been more clear than that with their continuous troglodyte behavior in doing the work for the people of these United States.

We can take care of ourselves by getting rid of these selfish, self-serving political hacks with a cult mentality, whose real loyalty has always been to themselves and to the Bush/Cheney/Rove ideology, and to those Republicans, such as Gingrich, of yesterday. The noise these Republicans in Congress are making today is all about their own fears of losing the power in government to do whatever the hell they want to do and it has nothing at all to do with working for the American people. It's all about greed and power.

With these substandard substitutes for the GOP we knew of years ago, who played an important part in government, and who used to represent a balance of power in Congress, such as President Eisenhower's era, a president, who also warned us Americans about the danger of a runaway military complex . . . will the discourse and belief system of that Republican Party join all of the other ancient lost languages of yesterday, or will the American people speak out against these members of Congress who have, not only voted against the people of this country, but bear the full responsibility of where we are today? We Americans need the openness of discussion, and of honest, intelligent debate, not the rigidity of a wealthy Republican ruling class in Congress, who relish using a demagogic tyranny in order to control the people of this country.

We've had that for eight long years already!
