While questioning the integrity of the Confirmation Hearings conducted by the Senate, let us also question the integrity of our government and the political parties that have dominated the USA Scene for 150 years. These two parties are the Republicans and Democrats.
The Republicans and Democrats preach human rights and democracy to the world but use stringent ballot access laws, control of the media, financing, intimidation by supporters to make sure that other parties [such as Libertarians and Greens] do not receive publicity. The Republicans and Democrats wail that a vote for an Independent is a wasted vote. If the Republicans and Democrats consider the Alternative Political Parties a Wasted Vote, why do they go through all of the trouble in excluding these parties from a debate?
The Republicans and Democrats talk about clean government yet there has been kickbacks, corruption in the highest sphere of government. The Republicans and Democrats talk about protecting our freedom but they are gradually taking away our freedom with excess Government Intervention. The Republicans and Democrats also maintain dictators such as Castro and his Brother, Ortega, Chavez. The Republicans and Democrats hang Hussein yet release Noriega.
The Republicans and Democrats talk about diversity yet I have yet to see an African-American, Latin, Native American, Inuit occupy the office of Chief Executive Officer of a Corporation run by Anglo-Saxon landed gentry. If this Government were privatized and would have had to obey the laws they passed, it would be out of business.
It is about time to think change and that change will only come from a new direction lead by a Multiracial Multi ethnic Libertarian and or Green Government
