Dumb and Dumber

“If Korporate Kerry becomes the Duopoly president and serves eight years, he will be followed either by the right-wing John Edwards or another reactionary Republican like GW Bush. In either case, sixteen more years of corporate conservativism will end our democracy.”

John Murphy


Hi Everyone,

The Duopoly grew another head today when it added that of Senator John Edwards to its political Hydra. Edwards is another multimillionaire member of the American aristocracy and is representative of the corporate elite, who plans to keep us in Iraq for the next fifty years, continue the bombing of Afghanistan and continue support for the Zionist policy of apartheid towards the Palestinians. Here at home the Duopoly plans to continue its support for the health care insurance companies and to provide more tax relief to the beleaguered wealthy Americans through corporate welfare.

This is why a Kerry presidency is so frightening to Progressives. If Bush becomes the Duopoly president because a sufficient number of Progressives refuse to vote for him, a revolution in the Democratic Party will occur. The DLC will be ousted and we will have a liberal Democratic president in 2008. It is also highly likely that they will institute IRV at least within their own party if not at the national level. But the Dummycraps prefer to sacrifice the long run on the altar of the short Rather than lose their position in the Duopoly.

If Korporate Kerry becomes the Duopoly president and serves eight years, he will be followed either by the right-wing John Edwards or another reactionary Republican like GW Bush. In either case, sixteen more years of corporate conservativism will end our democracy.

If Korporate Kerry is elected it will be a reverse phenomenon of the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1932. When Roosevelt was elected it ushered in sixty years of liberalism in the Democratic Party ending with the right-wing Bill Clinton. If Kerry becomes president we can look forward to the Democratic Party disappearing completely as an opposition party while America mires in the cesspool of corporate fascism. This time it may last much longer than sixty years. This time it may not end at all. With all of our might we must resist this eventuality. It is absolutely critical that every Progressive vote for Ralph Nader.

    It would help a lot if there were some sort of comment to go with the graphic…which is great in itself, but at least outside of a site such as this, a lot of people are going to react, “John Edwards–right wing? What?” Or a link to an article, etc.
