Good Morning America; 2015!
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the foggy, mild, misty island of Nantucket! Great to be with you on this Sunday morning–the 4th day of January, 2015–a rather balmy one out at the Hyannis/Hyannis Port Waterfront, with temperatures reaching 60 degrees Fahrenheit by mid day…
The thaw will not last however, nor will it in Washington D.C. come tomorrow morning, as this 114th U.S. Congress “get’s to work”, solving all of the plutocrats woes as it gives the old heave hoe to the working stiffs in this great land of OURS. A land we have allowed big oil and gas to run rough shod over for FAR too long my friends.
Consider this when you wake tomorrow; turning on the confusing and loud (lots of shiny objects!) ABC’s “Good Morning America”, or the NBC mind numbing “Today Show”, asking yourself why? Discovering that you have suddenly stopped fighting and allowed the corporate brainwash to begin with out your consent or knowledge. Keeping the masses as dumb and clue less as possible. For the network executive (who makes his/her money from Madison Avenue wizards’ bosses), that offers up the most crap for the viewer on a consistent basis wins the coveted ratings prize that is ongoing. Case in point, the fight over this horrible Keystone XL Pipeline project–the perfect symbol of the epic battle between the people of EARTH and greedy oil and gas tycoons who could care less if OUR children and their children actually have a planet that can sustain LIFE. And the very oligarchs that control what you and yours view on Comcast for example, NBC News’ parent company. This just in: full disclosure, you know–
Global Warming is quickly becoming synonymous with the word CATACLYSMIC!
So when you turn on your TV today or tomorrow, or ’smart phone’ or tablet, wherever you ‘get your news from’, most likely all of that “news” will be revolving around the central questions of “…what are the Republicans going to do?” “Are they going to work with Obama?” “Do they KNOW that continued unearthing of more Carbon based sources of energy will eventually doom our planet forever? i.e. tar sands in Alberta, Canada?
When will the madness end? Who cares about what these puppets ‘plan’ at their coming secret meetings with the Koch Brothers and other interested big time plutocratic polluters? Their ‘plan’ WILL be exposed for what it is and WHO it benefits. And seeing WE still live in a democratic society, for now, the voices of those who CARE about this planets’ health and well being WILL be heard, from every roof top in America! PROFIT over people is NOT what the founding fathers had in mind roughly 238 years ago and don’t let the idiots on the morning talk shows tell you any different. Including the so called pundits on TV today (although many are quite good, just watch out for those who speak with fork-ed tongue!), those making their appearances on the coveted elite Sunday talk shows…
In 1984, the late, great Governor from the great state of New York, Mario Cuomo, gave a speech out in San Francisco that is still recalled today. His passing only days ago (may he rest in peace), reminded US of those powerful words all these many decades later, words that still ring true today. A demoralized Democrat party hung on those words as if they were a life preserver, hoping that someday his vision of a more just, equal and fair society would eventually emerge, one that had more than just the wealthy few in mind…
A nation is only as strong as it’s weakest link and like a fence, can be repaired if it has seen too many cold, white days on the high Wyoming plains during a punishing winter. Mending it (like the U.S. infrastructure system) will take time and money; but most would argue that is what a government is FOR. It is not meant to be a boon to business at the expense of the people it was created to serve. One cannot serve two masters, now can one?
You are either a servant to the people or you are a servant to a plutocrat…
Have a great week ahead folks and make it GREAT YEAR!
PRESERVE THE WILDERNESS! Peace~M
