Voting is meaningless. It will change nothing. The corruption runs too deep. The existing social order must be swept away before there is a chance to put this country on some sort of sustainable path. That will not happen through the ballot box. It will happen in the streets. It will happen on future battlefields within our borders. The entirely predictable implosion of our corrupt financial system will be the trigger. It might happen tomorrow or it might happen in five years, but it will happen. Will you be ready? Greenwald is a truth teller. He is despised by the establishment. Listen to him.
“Hillary is banal, corrupted, drained of vibrancy and passion… But she’s going to be the first female president, and women in America are going to be completely invested in her candidacy. Opposition to her is going to be depicted as misogynistic, like opposition to Obama has been depicted as racist. It’s going to be this completely symbolic messaging that’s going to overshadow the fact that she’ll do nothing but continue everything in pursuit of her own power. They’ll probably have a gay person after Hillary who’s just going to do the same thing… Americans love to mock the idea of monarchy, and yet we have our own de facto monarchy… what these leaks did is, they demonstrated that there really is this government that just is the kind of permanent government that doesn’t get affected by election choices and that isn’t in any way accountable to any sort of democratic transparency and just creates its own world off on its own.”
Glenn Greenwald
“That will not happen through the ballot box. It will happen in the streets” – We’re passed the point of a ‘simple revolution’. Our legislators have enacted so many interlocking laws, with such complexity the county would crash and burn. Further all the ‘9 to 5’ wage slaves – just want to continue being safe in their cube farms. They wouldn’t say shit – even if they had a mouth full!
I think our government can continue like this for at least another 100 years – taking away our freedoms, via EPA, health care, and various other mandates. While destroying our economy by wringing out the past accumulated wealth.
Dutchman is wrong, though I entirely sympathize with his feelings. Everything hinges on the country’s financial situation. If the dollar loses its reserve status or the government defaults or one of a number of other major events occurs, the country will not be able to “muddle through.” By creating an underclass the government has guaranteed that when the end comes it will be catastrophic. Wage slaves? Those folks (you and me) won’t have any wages. That is when the rubber meets the road. This country is not Argentina or Bolivia where the people just put up with things. Take away the soft life and you will have an enraged mob on your hands, no question.
“Throw out all female members of Congress!”
I am convinced the Clinton’s killed Vince Foster. The Clinton’s are the very epitome of the saying ‘absolute power corrupts absolutely”. Pure unbridled ambition and lust for power at all costs.
But, Komrade Quinn, what difference does it make? You WILL worship your next leader, or else. I hate bringing up Hitler, but Hillary Cuntham possesses all the same psychological traits. You won’t have to wait to much longer for the 4th Turning, as she will unleash hell.

“I think our government can continue like this for at least another 100 years ” ——— Dutchman
Dahum, you’re optimistic!
I have news that might surprise some people, but Clinton will NOT have the women of America behind her.
Not even the liberal “feminist” women.
Even the libs and the feminists are onto this war-mongering, bankster-supported closet neo-con.
There will be a relative handful of Hillary-worhipers and they will get interviewed, but they are not representative of the rest of us.
But what’s the alternative? Jeb Bush? Mittens again?
If I don’t see a Libertarian candidate on the ballot, I’ll just walk out without voting, because it doesn’t matter which bought tool from the two hopelessly owned major parties wins.
I think I read Quinns stuff for the same reason my kids watched Halloween and Nightmare on Elm Street. It wouldn`t be REALLY Scarey if it wasn`t true.
The scary thing is the electorate. The people are more corrupt than Jamie Dimon could ever be. I’m also convinced that the Clintons killed Foster. I think the evidence is incontrovertible that both of Obama’s birth certificates are forgeries. The common thread among people who say otherwise is that they haven’t looked into these things at all other than to maybe google “Obama birth certificate” and be told by Snopes, “everything is fine and birthers are rayciss”. I finally got our company computer geek (an Obama supporter) to concede that the long form BC was created in a computer. Did it change his opinion on Obama? Fuck no. People just want their free shit. Voting is useless because producers are outnumbered.
I have to say, when I read the title of this post, I thought Admin was shutting down TBP, and I almost pissed my pants.
I think I have PTSD, from TBP being shut down.
At least now I can get on disability and live the good life.
I don’t know if she will actually run. Her health is poor and I doubt she will have the stamina for a Presidential campaign. Just looking at her in recent photos after her head injury, methinks she has “aged” and not all that gracefully.
Or perhaps is it just the inner rotten core of corruption, arrogance and mendacity that is finally bubbling to the surface, like shit rising to the surface of a septic tank.
The (FU)USA already doomed regardless of whomever is the preezy, so……

The Bush family & the Clinton’s are so close, Bill Clinton was at the NCAA Finals sitting next to GW Bush.
Democrats & Republiicans are both fascists.
Pro-Hillary Clinton super PAC grows war chest
Posted by
CNN’s Dan Merica
(CNN) – Ready for Hillary, a pro-Clinton super PAC urging the former secretary of state to run for president, raised $1.75 million in the first quarter of this year, according to the group’s spokesman.
The super PAC is part of a cadre of groups urging Clinton to run for president in 2016 and raising money to accomplish that goal.
Seth Bringman, Ready for Hillary’s spokesman, said the group had over 22,000 new donors in the first quarter with an average donation of $53.
Nearly 9,500 of the donations came from “low-dollar, grass-roots” organizing events, where Clinton supporters gathered in cities nationwide and paid $20.16 to attend, according to the group.
Ready for Hillary has focused on building a sizable list of Clinton supporters, organizers in a number of key presidential primary states, and digital advertising. Ready for Hillary was organized early in 2013, shortly after Clinton left the State Department. It is staffed by a number of Clinton loyalists like Tracy Sefl and Craig Smith, both advisers with longtime Clinton ties.
In January, Ready for Hillary announced that it raised over $4 million from roughly 33,000 donors in 2013. Their most recent haul brings the group’s total war chest to $5.75 million from over 55,000 contributors.

In January, a representative from the group said it will not buy TV ads with the money it has raised and instead will invest in on-the-ground organizing and other ways to help grow its database.
Hillary Clinton through the lens
The group hopes if Clinton decides to run for office – a decision she has been flirting with during paid speeches across the country – those names could be a solid base of early supporters. The plan, according to a representative from the group, would be to make the list available to the campaign through a third-party vendor. If the campaign wanted the names, it would have the option to rent the list, pay a fair market value for it or swap names with Ready for Hillary.
What I like about Greenwald is u don’t hear him yap about gay rights even though he’s gay. He seems to understand u have to be pro-freedom 1st, then it can be done in an unbiased fashion.
Southern Sage, the Union once steamrolled an entire new nation and left it in a smoldering, impoverished disease ridden heap with a lot less statists thugs/mercs and sophisticated weaponry than they possess today. Supply lines are easily cut and rebels starved out . I think by now ,after 20 years of socials media we can assume with confidence the Thugacracy already has a big fat list of all leaders and/or potential leaders willing to lead a new resistance.They’ll disappear first. It will be demoralizing those sitting on the fence.
Just as people vote their wallets, people will support whatever force that promises food and stability
Here’s a good essay on how the Union rampaged, pilfered, murdered and raped their way though a defeated and prostrate south.Does anyone really believes that the neck tattooed, sugared up, maleducated, unprincipled majority of youthful facebookers won’t be happy to live their video game lives out on some real destruction and pilfering?

“Monsters of Virtuous Pretension”
By David Aiken on May 8, 2014
Newly made graves were opened, the coffins taken out, broken open, in search of buried treasure, and the corpses left exposed. Every spot in grave yard or garden, which seemed to have been recently disturbed, was sounded with sword, or bayonet, or ramrod, in their desperate search after spoil. These monsters of virtuous pretension [bold italics, mine], with their banner of streaks and spangles overhead, and sworn to the Constitution, which they neither understand nor read, never once forget the greed of appetite which has distinguished Puritanic New England for three hundred years; and, lest they might forget, the appetite is kept lively by their women – letters found upon their dead, or upon prisoners, almost invariable appealing to them to bring home the gauds and jewelry, even the dresses of the Southern women, to deck the fond feminine expectants at home, whom we may suppose to be all the while at their devotions, assailing Heaven with prayer in behalf of their thrice blessed cause and country.]
“Voting is meaningless. It will change nothing. The corruption runs too deep.”
I’ve thought this way for years, which is why I avoid the Ron Paul millenial crowd. They are swept up in political activism and I just don’t want to piss on their parade. I have been there and done that, years ago.
Let them discover burn out and disillusion on their own.
One can not fix a nation of stupid by allowing a mass majority of stupid to vote.
The first world war, to end all wars..
World War I in Photos: Technology
Industrialization brought massive changes to warfare during the Great War. Newly-invented killing machines begat novel defense mechanisms, which, in turn spurred the development of even deadlier technologies. Nearly every aspect of what we would consider modern warfare debuted on World War I battlefields.

H. Cunton’s a “female” Dorian Gray. BC-LR to all
I call Hillary “Madame Stalin”. She reeks of evil. She is capable of anything. She scares me more than any other person on Earth.
She will definitely run. She has been obsessed with becoming President her entire life. And she will win. The Democrats have succeeded in building a large and growing majority of government dependents, and they have saturated the culture with political correctness. And they are good at painting the Republicans as skinflints who will take away the bennies (even though they won’t).
It’s true that many women dislike Hillary. But they hate the GOP. The fundamentalist Christians are a millstone around the GOP neck, but they are also now their primary support base. Every state that voted for Romney is rural, small population (except Texas), dominated or heavily influenced by fundie Christians, and pro-gun. The Democrats own both coasts and the urban Midwest with the big electoral votes.
But I agree with Admin that it’s too far gone for change through politics. We are getting deep into Fifth Century Rome 2.0. The USA will not survive the Fourth Turning intact. I just hope that American society survives, having learned many harsh lessons.
don’t vote, it only encourages them and validates them
what if an election occurred and no one showed up?
SHE WILL WIN BY A LANDSIDE as another judgement from GOD.
Hilary is probably much smarter than the last several presidents (including her hubby), but I don’t see what qualifies her for the chair. I would much rather see Elizabeth Warren who is a real populist and understands the evilness of the TBTF banks and probably comprehends the problems which face us much better than a corrupt Clinton.
And what’s with all the “re-tread” candidates from families we know and hate? Can’t anyone else push their way into the circle. I mean, Jeb Bush? OMG!

If she wins, he may as well. (notice that optimistic, hopeful use of ‘IF’)
