V the Visitors are here

I was absolutely bored one night playing with the remote, surfing one channel to another and settled upon the T.V. show, 'V the Visitors'. I had watched the original series many years ago, paying little attention to it then, but suddenly in watching this newly produced version had an "ah hah" moment.

The premise of the story is simple. Aliens send large spacecraft to Earth, keep the human race guessing as to their mission from deep space and finally when confronted "come in peace". Their leader is a beautiful female all smiles and looking like Audrey Hepburn. She smiles a large toothy grin, and tells the crowd of dubious earthlings she wants to share the wonders of the universe with this human population.

Like the brown shirts in Germany, the Hitler Youth Movement of the Nazi's, like most dictators who state all they are doing is doing the will of the people to find contentment and happiness, the hordes of aliens in V, espouse all the necessary propaganda to sooth and smooth any and all fears. Play with me and you will win the game.

And like most dictators or marauders, or wanna be hero's the only responsibility for you to be one of us is to allow us to guide you as to how to think, hate, and live. There is always the promise of a quick fix, a speedy resolve and immediate gratification.

I then reluctantly decided to watch the opposing party in action and tuned into the shenanigans of the Republican Southern Leadership Conference in New Orleans. (Now that the Bush dictatorship New Orlean of many of the poor blacks during their non heroic actions after Katrina, it was a more white city in which hold a conference). The Republican Southern Leadership Conference is a who's who of potential Presidential candidates and up and coming good 'ole boys and girls, who will carry the torch for the "party of no".

I happened to watch Sarah Palin walk to the podium all "winky" and smiley and suddenly I had a flash of deja vu. I has seen that smile, I had heard those words of calm and join us, and we are here for you. It was a deja vu moment of when I watched 'V the Visitors' and the head honcho alien the one who looked like Audrey Hepburn smiled from the face of the spaceship and said, I am here for you!

Oh My God, Sarah Palin is an alien. She is the captain of the spaceship of the aliens who are here to tell lies, pretend at the truth only to lull the lemmings into a comatose state and EAT them. Yes eat them. You see the Visitors on V were reptiles, snakes dressed as humans to cajole, convince and calculatingly catch the humans and eat them.

There was no ounce of truth behind any of the speeches made by the aliens, but they were so professional in their delivery, so full of bull, so tuned into the fears and bigotries of those they reached out to, that the audiences never caught on---until they were captured and eaten.

I finally understand what is happening with the Republicans, and the "Tea Baggers". They are invading the United States. they are mesmerizing stupid people, tempting the biases of the lowest denominators, and having them join their army of made up dissent to eventually devour the whole lot of them.

I get it. The invasion started when Ronald Reagan was elected President. He was the first of the visitors to land on Earth. His trickle down theory of economics began the disruption of the stability of the middle class, permitting poverty and disappear allowing the forces of greed and gluttony to gain ground.

The Visitors went underground laid in waiting until Newt Gingrich took power, Newt became too selfish and self centered and his loss of power in the House of Representatives cost the aliens some valuable time. But looking at Newt at the Republican Southern Leadership Conference, Newt has most likely eaten a few humans,

Then came John McCain, and the visitors had little they wanted from him but with promise of eating as many American as he wished the Visitors convinced the obsolete senator to choose Sarah Palin as his running mate. Sarah landed in Alaska beneath the radar from one of the Mother ships and was just waiting for the revolution to begin.

And I did not get any of this, understand how someone so stupid, so inept, so selfish could rise to power. Sarah is an alien, she comes from another planet and she is a serpent. The Visitors have found their leader and they have through the lack luster, lack of back bone, lack of conscience the Republican leadership been able to promote her as the Promise.

Now I see. Just like the Audrey Hepburn leader of the Visitors in the T.V. series, Sarah winks, smiles, speaks nonsense wrapped up in nothings and promises the waiting crowds to solve their self imposed woes. She just adds flames to the fire never once providing water to put out the sparks and convinces her minions to trust her.

In the T.V. series it took over eight weeks, millions of humans turning into snake food and dying, until the smart humans took control of the situation and fought back against the evils of the aliens.

Be afraid, I say, I understand the motives of the "party of no". I see what the alien leader known as Sarah has in store for us. Run for your lives and then please, fight back!
