EDWARDS LEAVES RACE, WHAT'S LEFT?

John Edwards splitting from the presidetial
gambit eliminates the last best chance to put
the squeeze on our supreme rulers: the multi
nationals and the defense department.

Let us presume Obama wins the presidency,
his naivete will be manna for the corporations
and they will eat him alive.


Try Hillary. She knows who and where the
power is and she will put in with it.

McCain? He is body and soul with the Mil-
itary-Industrial complex. A McCain pres-
idency willl be more of the same obstinate
bullying, wars, flip-flopping & incompetence.
John is not the swiftest kid on the block.

Romney was, is and would be with the su-
preme rulers and their minions. He is a
"let them eat cake" man .

So it is a sad day that America has left it-
self without the one candidate who was on
their side.

BILL KRISTOL AND THE N. Y. TIMES

Clark Hoyt, Times public editor, wrote an
article on 1/13/o8 headlined "He May Be
Unwelcome, But We'll Survive". Let me
try to take your hubris down a peg.

Is it the goal of America's Paper of Rec-
ord to survive? Surely, there are more
salubrious objectives for the vaunted
Grey Lady. e. g. its economic health,
its communal leadership. And so on.

The 1/13 piece quotes the publisher
as seeking an opinion in line with the
"conservative republican movement".
Mr. Hoyt, Bill Kristol does not rep-
resent a conservative republican
movement. He belongs, votes, hawks,
and represents the neo-conservative
party line. There is a cataclysmic
difference between those two con-
servative concepts and barring a
discordant drive one would expect
the leadership of the Times to dis-
cern that difference.

Again, quoting the Publisher. "He'-
"ll strengthen the discussion".
.Kristol's input into any discussion
is so far afield of reason, of depth,
of thought as to be embarrassing.
His predictions? bewilderingly il-
logical.

Many people in the industry excuse
Mr. Kristol's sappy deliveries saying
he is only playing to the shock value.
HAH!
