and the system grinds on

Pinch-hitting-(hitting-hitting) for shaz (shaz shaz)....Tonight I consider myself....the luckiest blogger....on the face of the Earth. I'm whupping up an OT on the quick.
First, a little background before I get to venting about the state of the world.
DATELINE - Philadelphia, July 7, 2016.
In what has already been the strangest, unpredictable political season, things just got weirder. Much weirder.
How we got to this time and place will be written about for generations to come. One thing is for certain - nothing, absolutely nothing is certain anymore.
The plans to set us up for repression at the Philadelphia convention are all too transparent. Nevada was a first step. Having been a movement leader in 1968 I can see the similarities in the oligarchy's strategies but there are huge differences in the context.
I did not not think they would lose their composure so quickly but they muist be willing to risk it. Nevada was the turning point I think.
The tactics used there foretell what is coming. Look for it to get much worse. They fear the massive turn out expected at the Philadelphia convention and will make it clear that you go there at your own risk.
Rex Murphy of the National Post (Canada) has a great article about Hillary Clinton's long and painfully winding road ahead.
He sums it up as:
In Clinton's dreams, Sanders is The Monster from the Lagoon. Trump will annihilate her
I have virtually stopped writing and read less and less. I feel very alone. I am watching a system fall apart and as I watch the people in it seem to be engaged in even more theater than before.
This is not an election we are watching and maybe participating in. It does not even resemble an election. For years and years some of us have pointed out that our elections are a theater used by the oligarchy to narcotize a television watching audience.
An ad for something I don't remember said of a spelling bee, in passing as the bee was going on in the background and the ad wasn't for literacy, "...like words you don't need to use anymore" of a four syllable word "ambrosia." That celebrates pig ignorance, encourages pride in stupidity. The ad was, I *think, for food Fast food. Non-GMO poison. Utterly non-nutritious (oh my, another 3-1/2 to 4 syllable word) crap that people use to fill their guts that they don't have to learn how to prepare for themselves. Crap that costs them more than twice what it would if they made it from scratch. Bad nutrition. A veritable (that's four syllables, folks) PAEAN - hymn of praise, not to a deity but to a word, "food". IOW, it's not only a "word you don't need to use anymore" but also ::gasp!:: heresy.
Dear Caucus99Percent Community members in Washington State:
I am running for the US House from the 3rd Congressional District of Washington State.
I am looking at a May 20th Deadline to submit 1,740 validated Washington State registered Voter signatures to the state Secretary of State’s office, to ensure I get on the WA State Primary ballot showing up in voters mailboxes on July 15, 2016.
The point I'm hoping to make here is that both parties suck, hardly anybody likes them, and it's mind-boggling that somebody put up by organizations that are so disliked will be elected President and that we pretty much have no say in the matter.
Dems and Repubs are both minorities
