This Election - America's Fight For Itself.
Whichever way you look at it - this year's U.S Presidential election is very, very important. It will finally be decided, as to which way the US wants to go. The very existence of TV channels like Fox News is especially disturbing, the way they act as bullies and try to steam roll anybody who doesn't agree with their point of view. It is also sinister, and you cannot but think there's somebody behind the channel who's pulling all these strings. If it's Rupert Murdoch, I think he's probably the most dangerous person on earth currently. I'm not sure what he's trying to do, but if the American public fall for this neo-con bullshit, they will lose themselves and their country's standing forever.
What is also disturbing is that there is so little civil disobedience about Iraq war - where's the anger that spewed out in the sixties and seventies about Vietnam war? Pretty much every American knows that the Iraq war is about oil. So are they morally corrupt enough to accept the human price that goes into it? Or have the news channels so thoroughly brainwashed them into believing that it's about terrorism? Whatever it might be, the Bush administration has been the worst thing to happen to America in a long time. It is time USA decides what kind of country it wants to be.
If they just continue to elect people like the current president, put up with dangerous tv channels like Fox News, they only need to remember what happened to the Roman Empire when it has corrupted itself so completely from inside.
