Populist Reform of the Democratic Party
Showing Original Post only (View all)Hillary makes them feel safe. She doesn't talk about torture or poverty or jobs to India [View all]
She doesn't talk about police violence.
She doesn't talk about Wall Street crime and amnesty for the rich and powerful.
She doesn't talk about the slaughter of thousands of civilians in Gaza, a grotesque spectacle of merciless and unnecessary killing.
She doesn't talk about drones and Iraq and an outrageously violent foreign policy inciting chaos around the world.
No, she doesn't.
It would be inconvenient to the government/corporate/police-state partnership Hillary advocates.
We've come to know this system of government as the Third Way.
Not quite Democratic or Democracy, but it sounds nicer than than what it actually is, a media friendly form of facism.
She just doesn't give a rat's ass about all that negative stuff. It doesn't affect her. Or her earnings.
This is a woman who says "it takes a village to raise a child".
To prove the point, MSNBC raised Clinton's daughter as a "special correspondent" for $600K a year.
That money could have raised a few villages, I think.
Was Chelsea qualified by way of education and experience? No.
Did more qualified women AND men get displaced because of her? Yes.
And who but the hypocrisy impaired status quo would pay Hillary $300,000 an hour to hear what needs to be fixed in our world?
Fix things? How about we start by tossing people who charge $300,000 an hour for rambling speeches stroking the egos of the super rich off the goddamn stage.
But, I digress... none of this matters to Hillary or her supporters.
She has been chosen for us. Hillary is the heir apparent. A meticulously groomed, genetically engineered organism designed to triangulate away from the hard, inconvenient choices needed to repair the gaping, abscessed fissure of disparity and injustice in America.
Hillary promises the rich, privileged and entitled a necessary comfort.
She is one of them. The status quo.
Supporting Hillary?
That's not making hard choices.
That's hiding the ordinary cowardice associated with privilege and entitlement.
