Dying, Rotting Fish??
Congratulations to those of us who have survived, yet another, "end of the world"! We haven't all survived, however. Like a flopping, dying fish on the deck of the ship of state, The Republican Party, that once- Grand Old Party, is in its death throes as it struggles to disgorge the cancerous Tea Party it ingested along with those race-haters who remain in our body politic.
This new world is certainly not a Brave New World, given the shenaningans going on in our Congress and in that sewer that poses as our news media. "Sick-Rant-Telly", that Tea Party darling on CNBC, a mouthpiece for "BAD"-Big Money, delivered a slip of his foul tongue this morning when he referred to "President" Boehner in the heat of his latest I-Hate-Obama rant. Dream On!
What do we know, thus far, following our 2012 election? A Swede, Gunnar Myrdal, selected by our government, and funded by the Carnegie Foundation, was busy at the time of my birth performing an in-depth study into the "Negro Problem" in this country. Approximately 100 years after De Tocqueville's dire predictions on race, the Federal Government wanted to obtain as much information as possible in its designs to thwart any advancement of the former slaves as they emerged from Reconstruction. The New Negro Movement http://myloc.gov/Exhibitions/naacp/newnegromovement/Pages/default.aspxnt , which followed World War I (and was championed by my grandmother) was giving our government fits and the Feds wanted to head off any movement toward Civil Rights. Eisenhower and other military leaders were participants in the War Department's role in the effort, which persisted well into the FDR administration.
If you dig into Myrdal's findings, you will find the blue-print used to create Repoobs, inspired by Nixon. He became the Picasso of race for our national politics, later to be merrily embraced by the "affable dummy" who became President in 1980. That blue print may not survive the 2012 election, despite the best efforts of "All the Bush Horses and All the Bush Puppets". Thank God!
Finer details regarding the demise of things that have plagued us all during my lifetime are emerging. Some examples: white votes are being re-designed as rural vs. urban votes to sustain white control in legislatures; younger whites are much less racist than those whites over the age of 35; gender will continue to be a problem -- but, for males of all colors and income classes; the new world symbol for our males will likely be a thirty-something on a skate board, with a stash of guns at home, living off some young female, with dire job or career prospects. Contrast the Romney spawn with our typical young males and you get the picture. Rubio "can't touch" that!
Stay Vigilant!
