The Tea Party, or the right wing of the Republican Party, might be a laughing-stock because of its policies and candidates, were it not for the fact that we are talking about elections in the world's most powerful country. I thought at first that the neo-conservatives, who hijacked US policy during the George W Bush administration would welcome this group's extremism; however, I have since discovered that the Tea Party threatens the most important principles of the pro-Israel cabal. The neo-conservatives are advocates of constant war, to impose American hegemony over the world. Some of them have acknowledged this, and others have denied it. The Tea Party, meanwhile, wants to reduce federal government spending and military expenditures. Ron Paul, one of the Tea Party's heroes, wants to re-consider all foreign policy, and this includes reining in military spending. This item reached $720 billion in the last budget, and I insist that the actual figure is closer to $1 trillion, because military spending is often classified under other items. But even if we take the announced figure, American military spending alone makes up one-half of the world's figure on military expenditures, compared to the shares of the following countries: China (6.6 per cent), France (4.2 per cent), Britain (3.8 per cent) and Russia (3.5 per cent). Even so, the pillars of the cabal of war and evil are calling for more military spending in a dangerous world. They insist that this spending is not the cause of the financial crisis; instead, they hold Barack Obama responsible for what he inherited from George Bush, with their help (I have a considerable amount of supporting documents, but little space here). I do not know if the Tea Party's candidates will change much in the way of Republican policies, and I cannot claim that they will win on 2 November, when the American people vote for all members of the House of Representatives (435 seats) and one-third of the Senate (this time, it is 37 out of 100 seats). I do say, however, that the pro-war and -evil cabal enjoys a wider level of influence over the long term, and is more committed and able than Sarah Palin herself, or Christine O'Donnell, Sharron Angle, Joe Miller, Jan Brewer and Carl Paladino and Michelle Bachmann. O'Donnell was the surprise of the primaries and had no chance of winning, until Sarah Palin backed her. She defeated the candidate of the Republican Party leadership, Mike Castle, and this led the head of the Delaware Republican Party say that O'Donnell wasn't qualified to be a dogcatcher, and was a “delusional liar.” Since her victory shed light on her, we learned that she rejects the theory of evolution, and says that American medical firms have created human and animal hybrids, generating rats with human brains. It appears that she suffers from constant financial problems; even her university took her to court, asking her to pay $4,000 in tuition fees, 20 years after her graduation. Sharon Angle is not much saner. During the primary campaign, she accused her rival of being a Scientologist, which has many followers in Hollywood. She wants to abolish the Department of Education and see the United States withdraw from the United Nations, because it is a “bastion of liberal ideology.” She opposes abortion and homosexuality and supports bearing arms; her website says that she is qualified to carry a concealed weapon. In the Alaska primaries, Joe Miller defeated Senator Lisa Murkowski after Palin supported him against a woman who represents the Republican Party in the Senate, and is in a strong position for a second win. He is a Tea Partier par excellence, as he supports abolishing the Department of Education and reducing foreign assistance. Jan Brewer is the governor of Arizona; she believes in God and the right to bear arms. She opposes immigration, and even claimed that there had been a discovery of headless corpses in the desert of her state, due to drug violence. However, a television report revealed that only one body had been found over the last two years. Carl Paladino was a surprise in New York in his run for the governor's office, after defeating Rick Lazio, a former representative and party stalwart. Paladino campaigns in public with his pit bull on a leash; his slogan is that he is “mad as hell and can't take it anymore,” borrowing a line from the film Network; he wants a popular uprising and thinks that the Tea Party is up for it. He also has a “love child” from an affair. Michelle Bachmann is a senate candidate from Minnesota. She has all of the above Tea Party policies, along with her belonging to a Protestant Evangelical church that says the Pope is the Anti-Christ, something that Bachmann denies. I believe that the candidates in the US elections are present to allow candidates in Egyptian and Lebanese elections to come off as sane and intelligent. [email protected]
