Tiger Tale Journal -- Cat Thoughts on Life, Religion and Politics

The greater part of what my neighbors call good, I believe in my soul to be bad, and if I repent of anything, it is very likely to be my good behavior. What demon possessed me that I behaved so well? --Henry Thoreau

DEMOCRACY SUCKS!!!


Democracy gave us.......George Bush and Hamas.

Stupid people, poorly educated......choosing what they saw as the lesser of two evils.......emotional and driven by propaganda.......making bad decisions.

Democracy could work......given an educated and thoughtful AND COMPASSIONATE electorate.

For us.......for the Palestinians.......it gave us the tyranny of the angry, brainwashed masses.

Democracy? It sucks.

Bush is probably happy because he has an excuse not to deal with them or send money to them now.

This shows the weakness of the two-party system ..... because both parties get corrupt and you vote for the lesser of two evils.

When you vote for the lesser evil.....you are STILL voting for EVIL.

I do believe that most of the world is reluctant to deal with Bush, but needs American trade.

Thanks, Lil.

There is no hope for Democracy.

We need a new form of government.

What that would be.....I haven't a clue.

I think it was Todd Gitlin who said the principle weakness of democracy is how do you impart equal power to people of inequal abilities.

And I'm fairly sure it was Winston Churchill who said that Democracy was the worst form of government possible, with the exception of all the other forms of government. He also said five minutes with the average voter could terrify anyone out of believing in democracy.

And now that we are in this Orwellian era marked by the media moving to the far right, talk radio entrenched on the far right and the far right solidly entrenched in the seats of power......Democracy has failed.

We are now suffering under the tyranny of the brainwashed and brain-dead masses.
