The hypocrisy cannot sustain itself. It has become too massive.

[jsamuel]

It is starting to fold in on itself. It cannot coexist with the reality being reveled all around it. Soon, it will hit a threshold that causes a reaction that will make it unavoidable.

I cannot stand it. I choose to see the contradictions and they are unbearable to me. I cannot live with them as a part of me. Others are willing to be consumed by them, but it cannot be sustained. It will eat itself.

1. Scientists say mass hypocrisy benefits by "strength in numbers"

don't count on craziness to collapse in on itself just because it's crazy and at odds with reality. The more full of shit something is, the higher it floats in the water, it turns out.

It all needs a little kick.

[jsamuel]

4. sure, but there is a point to where all the shit gets waterlogged and it

all sinks together.

[wli]

2. actually it can

The reason it's falling apart is incompetence. We could have easily been fooled into going along with any other properly-managed war and civil liberties revocation the corporatists cared to devise so long as they had people who came off as actually nice like Bubba Clinton as the figureheads. But they screwed up and let the scion of the royal family openly assume the throne, and by so doing locked themselves into a choice between outright dictatorship which is unstable in the long term and packing their bags and fleeing prosecution when their term is up.

The 2008 election is really the pivotal point now. If it's cancelled, we get dictatorship. If there's no fraud, they get prosecuted and pursued into exile. If the sheeple still roll over for election fraud, the democratic facade continues masking the well-known dictatorship.

7. probably so,

all you said....

3. One would think so.

:shrug: I can't stand it either!

5. When it reaches its critical mass, let's hope it implodes and not explodes

[jsamuel]

6. yeah, I would rather have the shit sink than hit the fan

8. Hypocrisy is killing them because they cannot make any negative

statements about anybody or anything without showing what hypocrites they are.

They have done all the horrid things there are to do in the world. They are incompetent, mean, liars, delusional, utopian, vicious, scape-goating, immature, self-ish, narcissistic, murderous, callous, cruel, baiting, sheeplike, et all AND THEY TEACH ALL THIS TO THEIR FOLLOWERS.

They cannot say anything bad about anyone else in the world -without it coming back to them.

They wrote the book.

9. After growing up with Truman, Eisenhower, JFK, Johnson and Nixon,

and reveling in Nixon's gradual self-destruction, I must say I have never enjoyed reviling anyone so much in my life as George W. Bush, who (when multiplied by his cabinet members, Rethug butt-kissers in Congress, and media whores) is 10,000 times the villain Nixon ever was.

I hope he fries in the Hell he professes to believe awaits anyone who disagrees with him.

I think Nixon actually talked himself into believing his craziness.

I don't know what to make of Shrub - he displays less of a conscience than Nixon.

10. I don't enjoy being afraid that Utopians (and mean ones at that - usually

the meanness of Utopians comes into play when their ideas don't work out - rare the Utopians start out mean & callus to begin with). I don't like it at all. Some days - it makes me sad. And America is not even my country so there is a buffer of sorts. I cannot imagine how hard it is to be a thinking & compassionate American these days.

[Seabiscuit]

11. It's "hard work" (LOL) being a "thinking & compassionate American" these

days.

It really sucks.

These years are the first I'd ever really, really wished I'd been born in another country. Because whenever I travel I feel like I bear a scarlet letter "W" on my forehead whenever anyone realizes I'm an American. I'm doomed before I have a chance to express my views.

The rest of the world hates us. Because we've been stupid enough to supposedly "elect" these monsters for an eight year term. Sure, they know there are people like me here. But I'm frankly ashamed to be an American when I travel abroad these days, for the first time in my life, and I've spent years of my life overseas.

[applegrove]

12. Yes - it is tough being judged for something you never did. I can well

imagine how heart-wrenching having to live with "that" as your leader is.
