And Mr. and Mrs. America, we have a group of terrorists who through their selfish, self serving, devious anti American actions are ruining, ripping apart and reducing this nation to rubble. They are the culprits of chaos and cataclysmic events causing this country to fall into Fascism, foreclosure and endless unemployment. They are the enemy and they are dangerous and they are the teachers, the street cleaners, police, fire fighters, and trash collectors. They must be stopped because above all else they have the penchant to vote Democratic and that is so un-American! And just to make sure you understand the evil, vile, venom these public servants have created, Karl Rove has been hired to act as lead henchman and lay hands on the union workers of Wisconsin removing their sins. Mr. Rove of no conscience, little morals and values and certainly non existent ethics has been hired to do his voodoo that he does so well. Truth doesn’t matter, facts just for the foolish, and reality well that is too real. So, paid for by the most American of Americans, the Koch Brothers, Mr. Rove has prepared a bunch of commercials to redirect reason and fool the foolish. He has come to Wisconsin and just like the union soldiers landed in Atlanta during the Civil War he will lay the land to waste or at least the middle class unionized people living in that state of denial.

Closer to God then thou, Mister Newt Gingrich, and Pastor Mike Huckabee have been making the rounds explaining how they live by the Bible and how they understand better than most the workings of God thus making them exceptional candidates for President. Mr. Gingrich, now after two divorces so his conscience can be cleared a Catholic, believes in a Catholic God and Pastor Huckabee a Southern Baptist, believes in a God who is of Protestant origins. They see a true God differently but have assured their potential voters once elected it will the God they believe in who will become the God of America. Both men who swear by the adage of do as I say, but never as I do, are filling the ears and empty spaces of mindless minions in Iowa, FOX News Pac, Family Values facades and finders of evil in everyones lives but theirs, with their own version of the Ten Commandments. Newtie has blamed almost the entire world for making him divorce twice, cheat on his ailing wife divorcing her while she was sick, and Pastor Huckabee feels that a lie is not a lie if after he expresses the lie over and over again by saying he was taken out of context or the words slipped past his brain to his tongue and it was not a lie. Both men can identify the bad guys in this nation because they have super Christian values.

President George Bush and his ‘weapons of mass destruction bud, ex-Secretary of Defense Donal Rumsfeld toyed a bit in the political world having made some very definite decisions regarding how we should live and how we should die. Both men caught the eye of real Americans who voted for Bush because he was a kind of guy with whom you would prefer to have a beer and someone the Supreme Court thought should be elected in-spite of voter fraud and lack of popular vote count. Donald ‘Rumy’ to his friends Rumsfeld, was the kind of guy needed to run the armed forces because he believed that swift and short actions could end any war he and his band of Neo-Cons decided to start and his understanding that the universe rotated not around the sun but the US. Both men dabbled in the lives of over 4000 US Troops who died trying to gain democracy in Afghanistan and Iraq, democracy as defined by the two men and their merry band of Neo-Cons. Mister Bush and Mister Rumsfeld, with of course the added ingredient of Dick, I had 5, count ‘em 5 draft deferments but I am a better American then anyone else in this country, Cheney decided for reasons we still are unsure of because those reasons changed almost every other month, decided to invade Iraq remove that government, ignore Afghanistan finally go into Afghanistan half heartedly and keep adding up excuses and deaths as they played politics. Now Mister Bush and Mister Rumsfeld are both authors and selling books prancing and profiting from the paid for talking head circuit, and not even wincing at the mistakes, missteps and mismanagement of their war effort created and generated by the two of them. Both men seem to think the past is, well, the past and those men and women who died, well I guess they did just that, die. Neither one of these two authors has written any apology for their actions. Neither one has spoken to the Troops who have come home mentally broken and physically shattered. But both authors have been able to generate new careers, new horizons and move on from their old careers as politicians.

When did America turn upside down? When the obvious good become usurped by what is good for me? When did honest, decent, just get replaced with just for me?

In Wisconsin we find that budget matters did not matter because it was just to bust the union. In the Republican/Bagger 2012 Presidential scene saying you are closer to God while doing the Devils deeds goes unnoticed. And two men who had the power to change the course of lives for so many causing death, destruction and doom get to change their own lives for the better.

When did we all begin to live in a Twilight Zone?
