Reality TV: the Cohen hearings

While it is not nearly as fascinating as that old O J Simpson Reality
Show, the Michael Cohen Hearings does afford us a break from the
"normal" daytime TV offerings, Soaps and Angry people attacking one
another while moderators duck behind their chairs.
For the Working Class, the good news is that it's not our fight.
But what we do have is proof positive that we can't expect snakes and
alligators to "drain the swamp". Only the working class people,
joining their many fragmented groups together, can drain the swamp,
and send the snakes and alligators packing.
Remember, as interesting as this struggle between the Trump forces and
the Government appears to be, "we the people" have no dog in this
fight. Trump and his Merry Band of Corporate Capitalists regard "the
people" as just another resource, to be exploited like all other
resources. And "The Government" which we have been taught to think of
as, "Us", has not represented the Working Class, ever. We've had to
fight major battles in order to force the Federal Government to
provide even the most modest protection to the Masses.
So do not allow yourselves to be sucked into this fight. The winner
will not represent our needs, regardless of who wins.
If you disagree with this, then ask yourself who do you side with,
Trump or the "Government"? And if you understand that neither of them
will protect your needs as being equal to theirs, then go for it, and
good luck! You'll need all you can get.
But if you agree that we, the working class, have been deceived(lied
to), then bend your efforts to bringing together the American People,
who have been fragmented and turned against each other by the Swamp
Creatures. As much as I would like to think that members of the
working class can enter the Swamp and begin draining it from within, I
am reminded that we've lost huge numbers of well intentioned friends
to the Giles of the Trumpsters and the Corporate Billionaires. No,
this Swamp has grown far too vast to be drained from within. We, the
People, will need to drain it from the High Ground.
So, once again, if you do not relate to either Donald Trump or to "the
Government", then you are simply a spectator to the current events, an
onlooker. Just fix a couple of hot dogs, heavy on the Mayo and
Mustard, grab a beverage and settle in for a trip into Never Never
Land.

It's March First and it's coming in like a Lamb out here on the Great
Olympic Peninsula. I'm heading to the barn to saddle up old Fritz, my
Giant Olympic Slug, and go creeping down the quiet forest road.
"Yippee Kyough!"
