ADULT PROBLEM: THE FEAR OF TRUTH; DISCREDITATION OF TRUTH
TELLERS
By Anne W – Age 15
Remember
the story of “The Emperors New Clothes.” It
was more than just an example of how
stupid people could be. It was a social
commentary.
The
way that the adult masses are kept in line is through
lies and threats aimed at those who dare to tell the truth.
Tell
the truth and you are guaranteed to be accused of being
a lunatic or of being something undesirable.
For instance, anyone –even if he or she is a Jew– who says the
Government of Israel is wrong to intentionally blow up hundreds of
children is
anti-Semite. Jews for Peace were one of
the lead groups protesting the invasion of Lebanon and the bombing of
the
Palestinians but a pro-war group, known as AIPAC, classified all
protestors as
anti-Semites.
Another example is that when Cynthia McKinney
questioned
whether the actions/inactions of the Bush Administration led to 9/11,
they
called her a lunatic. In fear and
trembling, those who wanted to be seen as normal didn’t dare question
the most
ridiculous conspiracy theory ever invented – the one created by the
Bush
Administration. Democratic minority
leader Nancy Pelosi retaliated on Bush’s behalf by stripping McKinney
of her
seniority. We are supposed to believe that 19 hijackers, some of whom
have been
photographed alive and well after 9/11, brought down four airliners,
destroyed
the WTC, damaged the Pentagon and killed three thousand people with
boxcutters. Would someone reading this
tell me why building seven fell or why no parts of a 757 were found at
the
Pentagon or what happened to the gold?
One
cannot accuse the Republican Party of being the
suppressors of truth in America when the Democratic Party has been just
as
guilty if not more so of punishing their members for daring to look at
the
truth.
Nancy
Pelosi has been Bush’s ally in the war on truth. She
voted three times this year for bills
that looked a lot like the Iraqi War Powers Resolution.
However, these bills dealt with Iran and
Palestine. She has voted at every
opportunity
possible to give further funding, not the servicemen and those injured
by war,
but to the war-profiteers. She even got
her fellow Democrats to vote to give Katrina funding to war profiteers
under
the lie that it was aid to the victims.
Nancy's influence
resulting in her daughter winding up the head the
platform committee of the California Democratic Party.
After insulting even teenager and child in
America and calling them stupid and lazy, Christine denied to them the
most
basic of civil rights. The teen who
spoke to the committee was treated with contempt and humiliation for
daring to
ask that America’s youth be treated as human beings.
Another
example of Democratic suppression involves the
attacks on McKinney by the Hank Johnson campaign. Johnson
is receiving money from the Republicans, the people who
are destroying our planet and the pro-war Christian groups. That last
group is
an oxymoron. The election tampering was
so obvious and extensive that even a blind man would have seen it. Cynthia won the primary but the switching of
votes from McKinney to Johnson in full view of voters who complained
reduced
her majority to a plurality. Also
voters not living in her district were allowed to vote for Johnson in
the primary. In the runoff her name was
not even on the
ballot in some precincts. Where her
name was on the ballot the voters had no better luck.
When they reported that their votes for McKinney were switched
to
votes for Johnson they were told that that was tough. The police did
their part
in mistreating blacks who approached the polls to vote for McKinney.
The
Democrats in Texas came up with the ultimate
sell-out. They ran a candidate who
supports Bush’s policies more than the Republican in the 14th
Congressional District. The Democrat opposes impeachment and is running
against
a Republican who has spoken in favor of impeachment.
The Democrat is opposed to gay rights and is running against a
Republican who opposed the anti-gay marriage amendment.
The Democrat is eager to outlaw
abortion. The Republican voted against
a bill to make it a crime to take a teenage girl across state lines to
have an
abortion. The Democrat supports Bush’s
wars. The Republican always votes against
war.
Texas
Democrats in their work to get their Republican
Democrat Shane Sklar elected have threatened Democrats and groups who
dare to
point out that Ron Paul votes against Bush more often than most
Democrats in
Congress. They have to threaten the
Democrats who tell the truth. That is the only way they can mislead
other Democrats
into voting for Shane Sklar. No
Democrat who wants to stop Bush or war would ever vote for Johnson.
I’m under 18 and Democrats who suppress truth
cannot censor
me or put me into fear. I hope I never
become one of the suppressors, one of the cowards who holds back the
truth or
one of the ignorant masses who doesn’t care.
That is too often a symptom of being an adult.
Perhaps the vote would be better placed with those of us under
the age of 18.
