11 July 2011. “Socialism is Good!” The Ordinary Folks of Gomel Oblast Say So!
Editor’s Foreword:
I’m sick n’ tired of hearing the Corporate Media‘s rants against Byelorussia… I don’t know who’s worse… the New York Times or Fox News… neither one tells the truth about this socialist state. They have an agenda, folks… so, look at the reality, not the crook news reports. Here are the people of Gomel Oblast… doctors, kolkhozniki, pharmacists, kids, co-op managers, grannies… the same as everywhere else. Reflect on this… the Internationalist Democrats and Neocon Republicans would bomb them without mercy to install a lickspittle Neoliberal Free Market junta, if they could. THAT speaks volumes about the morality of present American society, kids… none of it good.

Editor’s Afterword:
The people of Byelorussia have a modest sufficiency. They don’t have all the “things” that suburban Americans take for granted, but there are other in life besides material objects. Byelorussians approve of socialism, and they want it to continue. Why? They saw the chaos that capitalism injected into Russia and the Ukraine, and they want no part of that, thank you very much. Ponder this… America deliberately introduced chaos into Russia and the Ukraine through its lickspittles Gaidar, Chubais, Kuchma, and Yushchenko. Russia has mostly shaken off American capitalist chaos, and the Ukraine is in the process of doing so. Byelorussia never got involved in this… which has led to it being blackballed by Neoliberal Free Marketeers, who want to topple the socialist government of Byelorussia. Why is it that Neoliberals hate socialism with a passion, especially socialism that works? I hate to tell them this, but the USA was strongest under the socialist New Deal of FDR… it’s never been as strong (relatively speaking) since.
I’d advise po-nashemu people to have nothing to do with the Republican Party… they’re nativists who hate our ethos, our religion, and our culture. We’re inferiors in their view, fit only to be lectured and led. Get with it, guys, look at the images! It looks like your mom and pop, baba and dede, and everybody else in the old ethnic neighbourhood. Do you want to stand tall with them, or, do you want to suck up to the Republican Born-Again kooks? Is that really a question?

11 July 2011. Politics Through the a Cartoonist’s Eyes…
Never forget that Michelle Bachmann is NOT a Christian… like all Sectarians, she deploys Christian verbiage, but it’s with a meaning 180 degrees removed from its usage amongst real Christians (Orthodox, Catholics, Reformation Proddies). These cultists have given Christianity a bad name; it’s time for real Christians to take them to task for it. Just remember, real Christians don’t believe in a “personal Saviour”, nor do we believe in the rightwing fantasies that masquerade as “dogma” amongst Sectarians. You can’t take a group that waffled on President Obama’s birthplace as serious individuals (Franklin Graham gave open support to the birther fanatics). However, you can’t ignore them… they’re lunatics, but they’re dangerous loonies…
******
The five percenters want to move your job to a country where they can brutalise and underpay their work force, then, they want to bring their ill-gotten profits back here. Furthermore, they want LOWER taxes on these profits, as they’re “productive people, and they earned them”. The Republican Party applauds this logic. This tells you whom to vote AGAINST in 2012, doesn’t it?
******
The “War on Terror” isn’t only an expensive boondoggle in terms of money… it’s killed more than its share of young Americans, to no good purpose. The “terrorists”… they’re not terrorists for the most part, they’re patriotic folks who’re resisting the American invasion of their homelands. They’re GOOD folks, for the most part. Don’t listen to Fox News propaganda…
******
The Republicans REFUSE to consider tax hikes on their wealthy constituencies… ordinary folks have to pay for the feckless irresponsibility of the five percenters. They partied hearty… now, they want to stick us with the bill. I think that there’s something wrong with that…
******
Blame the little guy and make him pay the full cost of it all! We’ve got country club dues to pay, dontcha know!
******
Hey, kids! I’ve got a great plan for getting us out of the mess that we’re in… let’s do MORE of what got us into trouble in the first place, and that’ll set things right in a flash! Ayn Rand said so! It’s called “Hindenburg Economics”… oh, the humanity!
******
Rupert Murdoch (the moneybags behind Fox News) showed his true colours in the News of the World scandal. He fired 200 people to save the skin of his favourite… and he refused to apologise for his egregious actions. Oh… Mr Murdoch, along with the billionaire Koch brothers, is one of the main sugar daddies of the Tea Party… thought that you might like to know that…
******
Don’t blame rank n’ file TSA people for the nasty and invasive methods that they often use… they’re mandated by crackbrained Bush-era senior officials, who fire anyone who doesn’t follow their paranoid and wingnut instructions (they’re called “scripts” in the trade, kids). Don’t forget, GWB founded the Department of Homeland Insecurity, and his appointees laid down its crank ethos… don’t criticise President Obama for their lunacies.
******
THIS is the main legacy of GWB and the cabal of rightwingers who ran this country for eight years. If you want more of the same, vote “Republican” in 2012. Attend to what people DO, not what they SAY… after all, if that 95-year-old woman were any good, she’d be one of the affluent effluent… but she wasn’t… so, she was fair game under the Bushie rules. The 235-year-old lost his mind under Bush… not Obama… let’s keep that straight…
******
Bring ’em home NOW… young Americans are coming home dead in zinc boxes to line the pockets of the Five Percenters. I note that the Percenters don’t send their sons out to die… they only profit from it all, dontcha know! I weep when I think of the grief of the dead soldiers’ families… I’m angered at the uncaring indifference that sends young men to die in distant foreign parts, for no good cause. The dead of the Afghan and Iraqi Wars will accuse GWB on the last day…
