Gordon Duff: Para los Pobres de la Tierra
"freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose" (Kris Kristofferson)
the decline and fall of a generation destined for greatness
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor
Kennedy defined Americanism for a generation. Perhaps he was murdered for that alone. American had a destiny, one long forgotten and
a sacred duty, an "honor" if you will. Americans were to stand with
los pobres de la tierra, with the poor people of the land, el mundo, the
world, stand for freedom, stand for justice.
los pobres de la tierra, with the poor people of the land, el mundo, the
world, stand for freedom, stand for justice.
Today these words are little but long forgotten song lyrics. It didn't even begin with Kennedy.
The battles for "hearts and minds," the one we lost so shamefully on the fields and rice paddies of Vietnam began with the struggle between
Hamilton and Jefferson and was best expressed by Lincoln;
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.Now we are engaged in a
great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so
conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great
battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that
field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that
we should do this.But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or
detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say
here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the
living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they
who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to
be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from
these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which
they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve
that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under
God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the
people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Detractors today tell us Lincoln was an autocrat, Jefferson a communist and Kennedy a coward and wastrel. In fact, nothing American
other than "greed is good," you know, mister "trickledown" Reagan,
nothing before and certainly nothing since is truly "American," not by
the standards the mavens of pop culture and conspiracy. Today, these
same "mavens" are trying to repackage the last of the Cold War rogue
dictators, Momar Gaddafi, wastrel for sure, psychopath, certainly, as
the "flavor of the day" hero of convenience.

A generation of Americans is being conned. They package themselves as liberal and conservative, progressive and reactionary but the
direction is always the same, mistrust of each other, obsession with
conspiracies, the wildest of all those sanctioned by the government
itself, 9/11 and the imaginary hijackers, the drug cartels, Al Qaeda,
ACORN, sub-prime mortgages, the "liberal press," all "big lie" myths.

Ask yourself how Clarence Thomas could still sit on the Supreme Court after being caught taking $700,000 in bribes. Anyone remember Anita Hill? Having trouble imagining Clarence Thomas
putting pubic hair on a Coke can? What do you imagine he might have put
IN the Coke can? Can you imagine what is on the hard drive of his
computer, providing he knows how to work one?

The Roman emperor Caligula appointed his horse to the senate. Appointing Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court was an almost identical
act. (for those unfamiliar with Caligula…)

In 2001, America began sending its armed forces across the world, marching them off as heroes in the public eye, returning them as drugged
out bums and war criminals to that same public.
None of it is about knowledge and enlightenment, about truth over propaganda. The goal has been sewing dissension, mistrust division and,
the greatest prize of all, teaching a generation of Americans to hate
America.
America.
This we now have the National Socialist Republic of Wisconsin, a state run by robber barons, tax cheats and thugs with Michigan and Ohio
joining in. What makes it really funny, actually quite hilarious is
that Wisconsin is now a police state but the police, themselves, were
the first victims of their own repressive regime. The 'jack-booted"
enforcers for the New World Order are the first to lose collective
bargaining, health insurance and due process.

You think this wasn't carefully planned?
