MCCAIN THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE

John McCain unfortunately was the most conservative candidate on the ballot on November 4th. The self-proclaimed maverick was at the most a centrist and even left of center on a considerable number of issues. But he was the nominee of a mealy mouthed republican party that has fallen into the mindset of “moderation”. No candidate has ever won a presidential election in America moving left. As a matter of fact, Obama had to move substantially right to attract enough votes to win. But that is water under the bridge and the future of our country has been placed in the hands of President elect Obama.

Watching how John McCain and his staff have turned on Gov. Sarah Palin seems to prove two points; the first is that Washington is a fortress against change and is populated by a click of elitists and scammers, and two, John McCain might really be a Manchurian candidate.

Let’s look at “McCain the Manchurian first”. McCain ran the most inept campaign in my life time against the most liberal candidate in the history of America. He chose the highest rated Conservative, Republican Governor in the country and then proceeds to try to ruin her career. In September, Sarah Palin had an 86% approval rating by her constituents in Alaska and was lumped into a presidential race with 3 senators from a senate with a 9% approval rating;

“She started her career as Governor by publicly challenging the obvious corruption in Alaska's legal system, and in turn won the few hearts she hadn't caught in the state. Palin then kept the love running strong with a support of oil and natural gas development to support the growing economy, balanced with an ecological concern to preserve Alaska's untainted environmental beauty.”- http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1004592/what_sarah_palin_has_done_for_alaska.html

Sarah Palin was selected by McCain to attract the disenfranchised women who had supported Hillary and she did just that. In an article from Timesonline dated August 1st, it was pointed out that “Palin is gunning for the 18 million women who voted for Hillary Clinton — a third of whom have not made up their mind to back Obama”. She did garner their support and 57% of white women voted for the McCain/Palin ticket. Gov. Palin did this despite McCain basically handcuffing and muzzling her, (the visual here is a bit erotically kinky, but I digress).

Now, the McCain camp has been leaking outrageous and unsubstantiated rumors to paint Palin as an uneducated, dim-witted, free-spending, callous bitch. In the movie, The Manchurian Candidate, Raymond, the former prisoner of war in Korea, is transformed into a mindless slave by the playing card, the Queen of diamonds. Did McCain get his mind altering playing card in the mail that switched on the “kill the candidate” button, installed when he was secretly brainwashed during his six years of captivity in the Hanoi Hilton?

Maybe a more logical explanation is that Washington has become a bastion of arrogance and elitism. Why would the politicians and lawyers who rule from their plastic bubbles want change and reform? Party affiliation no longer matters and the status quo must be maintained at all cost. This is a perfect opportunity for McCain, who has shown his true colors that are painting him as the insider he is, to destroy a true reformer who isn’t afraid to take down members of her own party to stop corruption. What could be more dangerous in a town where nepotism, bribery and soul buying and selling are the natural order of day to day business? It serves the politicians better to assassinate the character of an average American. I have heard people say they don’t want average people running the country because so many believe the propaganda thrown out there that only the finely educated are qualified to rule. The politicians want everyone to believe that. If the common person does try, they will be destroyed by politicians and their mindless minions in the mainstream media.

The bailout is a perfect example of the elitist attitude by the politicians in Washington. They did it despite public opinion because they said it was entirely necessary to do so to save the country and the economy. What it really does is bailout the executives who have made the biggest donations to our countries leaders. Wealth has been redistributed to the wealthy who squandered their own fortunes in the first place and only one of the four presidential candidates disagreed with another raping of the treasury; Gov. Sarah Palin.

Americans will never take back their own country if they don’t start questioning the leaders and the media. I am getting sick of the mindless comments of propaganda spewing zombies who hear something and allow themselves to be used as conduits for those lies. People need to start thinking about the news. Everyone needs to pay attention not only to the story being told but who is telling it and for what possible reason is it being conveyed. There is an agenda behind everything we hear. And remember, as Raymond the Manchurian candidate found out, even paranoid people have enemies.
