McCain and the Dead Man's Party


Ever since I saw that creepy Danny Elfman video about McCain morphing into Palin I have not been able to stop thinking about the synchronicity between that video, Oingo Boingo, and their classic tune: Dead Man's Party

And it made me wonder if the Republicans are truly a Dead Man's Party. A party for the dustheap of history; the dustheap of bad agenda's, near misses, and also ran's in the hall of shame and the marketplace of toxic ideas. The Republican Party wasn't struck by lightning. They brought this on all of us. They have been tried in the balance and found wanting. The days of their Kingdom are numbered. Mene, mene tekel u-Pharsin.

Jonathan Swift wrote, in A Run Upon the Bankers...

A baited banker thus desponds,
From his own hand foresees his fall,
They have his soul, who have his bonds;
'Tis like the writing on the wall.

“They brought this on all of us.”

Who?

I am afraid that the kingdom that has been weighed is our Democratic form of Government, better than most, but still a failure.

It failed to prevent the inevitable collapse and fall.

The people will now have to share in the consequences.

God help us.

Bio

I was raised by a kindly old gentleman in the wilderness near the Rio Branco. He died of natural causes when I was 16, and I drifted down river in a bark canoe not knowing what I would find and eventually arrived at a settlement of Franciscan missionaries.It was then I discovered that we had not been the only white men left after the Nuclear Holocaust, that in fact, there had never been a Nuclear Holocaust, and there was no need to forge our own bronze and iron and live off the bounty of the rain forest. I was probably kidnapped as a small child. I have dim memories of someone called Mae and Pai. I wandered the Pan American highway till I settled for a time in Zipolite, Mexico, where I worked as a silversmith. Eventually I met a beautiful young woman who was independently wealthy and she married me and took me to live in N Ca where we live on a cliff overlooking the Pacific. I have my own forge, and do blacksmithing for the local horses, in addition to my silver and bronze work. Adaptation to modern civilization has been a challenge for me ever since I realized I was deprived of my natural family and raised by someone who, though kind, must have been something of a lunatic. He did teach me many practical survival skills, however so I guess he wasn't all bad. I have ambivalent feelings about my whole childhood.
