Dominance Games / Politics

The go getters want to go and get.  The go getters want to camp in the camping grounds of those who’ve gone and got.  They want to charge up the hills of glory and reflected glory and throw their lots in with the canny and wise, the achievers, doers, job creators, wealth creators….. the hard working salt of the earth types who roll up their sleeves and build better worlds and make society a growing vibrant place…..That is what they wish to do.  A growing vibrant place is what they want.

The lazy idle and irredeemably intellectual snobbish wish to see the wealth of nations squandered on the lame and the halt and they wish to see the drive for innovation, creativity, risk, action, drama sucked out of everyday life so that all that is left are passionless drones who are the broad bland degenerate useless.

Those who seek redress of problems and bad ways know that they can petition a stagnant government only far too happy to answers to the needs of the afflicted and uncomfortable….that is what governments do…. that is what they are for.

Those wishing honest ascension to the places open to the making their mark, the doing of their wants, the breaking their enemies know that government is the enclave of those who support it, own it, pay for it, structure it, and that the good support of power should yield either the rewards of help or the rewards of no hindrance.

All of our power seekers let go and let alone  know where and when to stop, know where and when to pull back and not conquer or break, know whom to hurt, whom not to hurt, whom to care nothing about.  What collection of diddling fools need interest groups to speak truth to power, to speak muscle to power unchained, to intimidate the intimidators….the put upon care not who their masters are…. the bells and banjos of political and economic practice, discourse, fodder, talk, philosophy mean a mother load of nothing if the only thing able to be trusted is that whichever bastards gain the upper hand…they are the bastards that will screw you.

Respect for power.  Respect for checks on power.  Respect for survival of the fit.  Respect for being brothers keeper….its so damned complicated.  Better to just screw the one your with.

Dominance Games / Politics: Halloween

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags , , , , , , , on October 27, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

So you hate your congressperson.  So congress is terminally flawed and irredeemably flatulent.  So the winds of wonder never touch down when those in congress choose to make it out of their draconian dens and their edifices of rubble.  So the sun never shines where they trundle and the quality of life on earth only spirals downward whenever and wherever they open their mouths and try not to be too transparently soulless.

So they’re all vile and evil and laughable and psychically, morally, intellectually bankrupt.  So when they do anything but stand in the way of opportunity growth, sense, reason, spirit they foam at the mouth and pass rabies to all with whom thy come in contact.

Flay them.  Slay them.  Admonish them.  Make them oafs of derision.  Hammer them. Waltz with them.  Club them.   They will not die.  The will go on and on and on forever.  Forever and a day.  And the day after that.  They will be eternal.  The beasts who will not die.  The beasts who will not melt.  The beasts who will keep coming and coming and groping and groping.

How in hell are you going to get rid of them.  It ain’t in the script.  It ain’t in the picture.  Monsters never die.  They have better tricks and better agents than you do.

Dominance Games / Politics: Amen. Amen.

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags , , , , , , , on October 26, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Amen.  Amen.

Socialist, communist, unwashed vermin.

Heads wrapped up in aluminum with addled thoughts and primrose paths.

Wasted, washed out idle leeches with soft landings and immature whining.

Knee jerk adolescent snobs fashioning weak excuses for their lack of manhood.

Crying infants teetering on the brink of eternal tantrums.

Throw out the songs.

Throw out the stories.

Preen as a house joker.

Wiggle as house fop.

Its always good to call out a neighbor.

Never a fascist pig or plutocrat, oligarch, I.

Call them as I see ’em.

Flag and country.

Push back against my purity is demeaning both.

Amen.  Amen.

Dominance Games / Politics: Special people in a special world

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags , , , , , , , on October 25, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

We have the morally decrepit and the ideologically pure.  We have those without a brain and those with brains eaten away by the dry rot of misuse, of fear, of pirouetting synapse, mortgaged souls.  We have the galloping thinkers who have their agendas and points of view force fed to them daily from those who would tacitly pull their strings as long as their vile grease can be handled without infection.  Get too close and we have bio hazard.

We have the inveterate liars, the inveterate fools, the cunning schemers, the venal sneering snakes, the good fellows and the proud cowpokes.

We have the orgasmically challenged who look for their fixes in the  lengths and depths of the bile they eat and the flies they catch with their tongues.

Our governing and screaming hero class.

We have the spinsters, the haters, the attention seekers, the frauds, the muggers, the pimps, the gangsters, the degenerate prostitutes, the intimidators, the neo fascists, the owners, the breakers, the showmen and those made of putrid mist.

We have our tethers of moral rectitude and character.

We have the song birds singing for their supper and ruing ours.  We have our stars and fairy god mothers and god fathers,  We have none of backbone, courage, independent thought, critical thinking, scientific method.  We have our unincentified menagerie of players who do what they do and are what they are as the sirens they hear are the sirens they love…. sinister sirens keeping them dull, corrupt, closed minded, power hungry, without honor, without souls, without a care in the natural world.  A good god damn rational notion of governance is a good gad damned pestilence and breeding ground for traitors.

We have those who answer to their fawners, owners, intimidators, back breakers, absence of thought police.  We have our proud soldiers of the lord who have no reason to be any different.  God has made them special people in a special world.

Dominance Games / Politics: The room with a view

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags , , , , , , , , on October 24, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics:

Poor poor American public.  Talking, speaking, listening, dialoguing, trying so hard to find a satisfactory common ground upon which all can rest weary heads.

Poor poor American public. Trying to grow and prosper and defend and educate, trying to tolerate and obfuscate and derail and incubate.  A legion of ideals, fabrications, factions, factors, dim lights, messianic hoaxes, hardened criminals and simpering bottom feeders.  We come from every which where and we melt together in the great melting pot of rough grub and half baked plaster.

Poor poor American public.  Stimulating essentials of sovereign virtue, stimulating essentials of urban legends and tooth fairies and Halloween ghosts and venal goblins.  Pictures of racks for punishment and spears for flaying dance magically in the fires of sensuous passions and kneeled at deference that define the worlds we wish for and the worlds we wish our future generations.  The magic dragons of puffery and cynicism circle aimlessly as we all see through the prisms of choice the structured worlds of what ought to be.

Uneasy lies the heart that sees a world at odds with the perfection of true right and goodness that the visions of the vision fairies deem to grant us in our hours of yearning.  The spectrum, the sliding scale, the integral proportion of wealth and power, force and deference….oh where oh where can we go?  Where oh where can we find the solace of vision and the comfort of quest that we wholesomely deserve?

All inclusive are we.  A world of aristocracy.  A world of plutocracy, of meritocracy, of politically and morally correct?  A world of structured class and each in his or her place.  A world of simple and constant and ferocious dreams, wants, divides, fantasies, sets, set ups.  What do we aim for?  Who do we bury? What looks good in the mirror?  What is the delineation of place and time?  What is our shared vision?  What is that vague mist of folly and smoke?  Why is there the love of all mankind and simpering fools as their brothers’ keepers?

Dominance Games / Politics: The better the sizzle the tougher the steak

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political analysis, Politics with tags , , , , , , , , , , on October 23, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

It sells, the belief that anyone unhappy with disparity of power and / or wealth is a communist loony.

It sells that anyone who does not feel that unleashed private enterprise will have any other agenda than to shape policies and profits for their own best interests as they streamline business and push those at their mercy to the bottom.

It sells this divine trust in those with power and this divine trust that those with power are the only living souls of virtue in a world of drones, incompetents, freeloaders and leftist culture thieves.

It sells that markets are not rigged and that the nation is an economic system unto itself and that non national options are not part of any economic equation.

It sells that we are the economic masters of our own fate and that no private economic concerns have little to fear from or heed to the nation state that is us.

All of this sells.

The dream of rugged individualism sells as if we were in a wilderness of hidden plenty just waiting for the strength to work and sweat to fetch it.

It sells that this is what we are, true self reliant pioneers unfettered by traps set up tp make us dependent, broke, broken, useless and in our place.  All of this sells because the sizzle always sells and the better the sizzle the tougher the steak.

Dominance Games / Politics: Show biz is show biz. Dumb stays dumb.

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags , , , , , , , , on October 20, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games:

Show biz is show biz.  Dumb stays dumb.

In the absence of any real chance to have real people do real things to effect solid policy we get always true stock players and actors for comic relief leading the eternal ratings bonanza of the many loves of the desperate dance prancers of the mawkish melodies of karaoke….. always public spectacle, circus, show, campaign, talk.  Politics as the soft breezes that caresses the day.

Were there a real demand for virtuous speech and honest policy a demand that had some strength and force and a magnitude of pressure then the product given might be something different and become then the boring earnest gab fest done by those who are policy wonks and technocrats and goal oriented softies.

The grand free marketplace of political discourse has responded over and over again to the demands put upon it to keep using the bells and whistles and keep sending out the B actors and commercial product/placement players that fill the void of off time programming and sullied lives that is the solid entertainment of political farce.

We demand in our political markets certain drama, certain heroes, certain villains, certain forms of shadow dance.  We accept the game as it is and wallow it its debauchery.  The efficient market then gives us sun and fun and sweet nothings made up of feckless promise and grand sham.  There is no there there.  Our political games are show games and they are nice posteriors and sweet projections.  Central casting gives us plot, words, story, character….all is the process, the marketing.  All good entertainment has / lets the show become the reality.  The demand is for mindless entertainment, quick thrills, blood curling tempests.  The showmen have long experience and vast knowledge.  Show biz is show biz.  Dumb stays dumb.

Dominance Games / Politics: Choke holds / Grand illusions

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, political science, Politics with tags , , , , , , , , on October 19, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games:

There is no jobs crises as we’ve been informed that were the unemployed amongst us real worthwhile human beings then they would be working at the myriad of jobs that could be of their choosing.

We’ve been informed that there are plenty of alternatives for people who are forced from their homes, as well.  By selfishly wishing to stay put and to demand that where possible they retain a roof over their heads they are just impeding the noble march of the free market unchained.

And just imagine…We’ve been informed that we are a nation in danger of being polluted by inferior folk, in danger of having the mongrel views of inferior folk infect our political process……they must be stopped and the must have their voting franchises taken away.

And workers who wish workers rights, we’ve been informed, are no more than thieves who wish to snuff out the lights of innovation, entrepreneurship, capitalism, growth by taking more for their labors than what is wished to be offered, more for their labors than a fixed market might deem appropriate.

What is the purpose of a political system, apolitical entity, a political process if those who gain their sweet little choke holds and rise to the top cannot exercise their duly earned power and dictate the terms that make them proud.
