NEW IN THE NEWS: Arabs continue attacks in Irak . New Orleans Flooded Out .. Bush administration resue effort lackadaisical .... Oile Prices Spiked ..... British in Tiff With Iraki Quislings ...... KIA Tombstones to bear Bushist slogans ....... More Layoffs . . . . . . . . Holy Hillery!

It's been well over a year since President Bush last donned the full regalia, the little airman's suit he wears when he declares victory in Irak. Regrettably, the events of the past month found him on the runs with the runs once again.

All seemed right with the world according to Bush as the Irakis (Quislings) prepared to approve the constitution imposed upon them and the US continued to wave sabres at Iran and North Korea. The Evangelical preacher Reverend Pat Robertson of the 700 club, the son of a liberal Senator of yesteryear and cousin of The Bush proposed making war on Venezuela. Exactly why God might have told Reverend Robertson to attack Venezuela was not revealed.

The difficulty with saber wavering lies in past performance of the Bush administration: attack first, ask questions later. A country threatened might launch a preemptive attack against the US. With all US forces entirely engaged in the Irak war, a preemptive attack could be disastrous.

The news media cautiously avoided references to the number of US casualties suffered in the continual daily bombings in the war in Irak or to the problem in US recruiting.

Shut up and Sing: How Elites from Hollywood, Politics, and the U. N. Are Subverting America

According to Dr Kelley White recruiters have taken advertising to the extreme in her native state of New Hampshire where recruiting posters bear the image of The Bush in his little air force suit.

The Society informed Dr Kelley that it took extreme exception to portraits of the Bush in uniform. People who really wore uniforms do not like to parade around in them or use them as costumes. Uniforms are reserved for serious, usually deadly, business. However we did agree that The Bush looks cute in his little air force suit.

National Guard Generals have warned The Bush that with losses of men and equipment in Irak and the lack of any new recruits, they lack the capacity to respond to any domestic emergencies.

While the Society is loathe to compare The Bush to Der Fuher, there are some startling historical parallels. Both compare themselves to heroic historical figures, dress in uniforms and like parades and military music.

Similarly, The Bush seems to have gone into a dream state in which he creates phantom divisions in his mind to send against the enemy and to respond to natural disasters, reminiscent of Der Fuher’s invention of ephemeral panzer corps to beat back the Asiatic hoards pouring in from vengeful Russia. However the weight of authority within the Society is that, if history repeats itself first as a tragedy and later as a comedy The Bush is a comic actor wearing the uniform as a costume in a parody of a great tragedy.

Although US sources take the 5th on the recruiting dilemma, BBC radio, commenting on the forlorn efforts of Army recruiters, congratulated the recruiters for "persistence in face of an overwhelming task of over-coming the likely implications of the dreary daily news from the front." Yet even as National Guard commitments run out, the official fiction persists that there are more than enough people to complete the job.

About The Society


Dr Kelley Jean White, MD
Patient Presents

The RPPS was founded in 1971 in answer to the philosopher-ecrivian Rene Chateau Briande's challenge to intellectuals to learn how to act in a dime store. For this reason we have broken not only with polite semblances and banality but also with pompous intellectual pretences so that we may celebrate the mundane and ridicule the sublime in search of the world's greatest pizza pie. Yet, The Society does take advantage of parkland for quiet contemplation. Philosophers Rise! You have nothing to save but your minds.

Join with us in the FULLOSIA!


FP GUIDELINES

FP remains committed to open debate of all issues. Poetry and stories should relate somehow to the theme. Upcoming Themes: November: Elections, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, December - January: Christmas, New Beginnings, February Winter.

Dire Prophesy

1984
1984

Is George Orwell's terrifying prophesy a blue print?

The placidity of the US media presents the superficial image of consensus on the war.

According to Dr Kelley White, MD of Philadelphia a demonstration of 150, 000 against the war in Washington on Sunday September 25 2005 went unnoticed in the popular press.

The Dean reflected that a demonstration, that size in the Vietnam War era, would have attracted extra news time. Yet the Society's reasons for opposing the war are not as pristine as those of Dr Kelley's Quaker friends. According to Edward L Sommersett, Lord President of the Society, Americans do not support war; they support a war someone else, preferably poor and black, would fight for them."

The Rebels (The Kent Family Chronicles #2)

Some regular troops have been in combat now for four years, four times as long as was required of Vietnam Veterans, three times as long as was required of World War II veterans. With continuing losses, many combat units will become flags without followers within a year.

According to the mentor of the Society Dr James Davies, "the strategic reach of US forces has exceeded their tactical capabilities. I do know the Dean has described this in practical, more simplistic terms as the Rubber Band theory: the most powerful rubber band stretched too far, too thin, too long will break and splinter. This approximates the Wehrmact's predicament before Moscow circa December 1941."

The disaster plagued Bush administration faced an extreme challenge this time from the wrath of The Lord and The Bush was in full form for the occasion. Lousiania was flooded out when a hurricane of force five magnitude hit New Orleans and the low lying areas of the Gulf of Mexico inundating the center of French culture in the United States. In characteristic la-de-da, The Bush vacationing at the ranch in Texas stood by as the levees buckled and gave way and Mayor Nagin’s pleas for help were met by silence. After spiking gas prices to a whopping $3.50 a gallon, The. Bush went to San Diego to play guitar with a country singer and stayed over to watch a San Diego Padres game. Offers of assistance from Venezuela and Mexico to cope with the disaster were summarily rejected by The Bush who claimed that, despite the extreme shortage of US manpower fully committed in the wrong Gulf, he had more than enough people.

Evacuation of low lying areas proceeded in panic; busses were charging full fare right up until the point the roads flooded out. Nursing home operators abandoned elderly patients to the rising floods. US owned Army Busses which could have been put to good use in the evacuation were diverted to California to transport families of military personnel ordered to a organize a counter-demonstation against a peace protest. In the typical mean-spiritedness of The Bush family, Moo-Cow Bush, the Presidents mother told the survivors huddled in the ruins of the Superdome that they never had it so good. New Orleans now inundated in toxic waste is uninhabitable. Told that the levies were built by the French before they left 200 years ago and had not been maintained due to lack of funding, The Bush proposed tax breaks for the rich as the cure-all for the problem.

When hurricane Rita struck the Texas Louisiana coast two weeks later, The Bush who was to have remained in Texas to oversee rescue efforts fled to high ground in Colorodo.

To their credit Lousiana authorities indicted the nursing home operators who fled the storm surge. However the Society recognized the likely defense as imitating their Commander in Chief, the voice of courage.

The disater had been the subject of a chilling mock-u-mentary Oil Storm played on the Discover Channel.

Oil storm presents a series of feasible catastrophes, natural and man made, in which the current difficulties could lead to utter devastation of economic life. Presented in the style of 44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shoot-out, Oil Storm tells the story as if it were a documentary made after normalization. It uses the perspective of a Russian émigré (fence jumper or turncoat depending on your perspective) who has ascended to high council and position in the Administration, a merchant family running a gas station as the crisis threatens their business, and a farm family forced to become activists as the government runs out of subsidies.

Fantasy War

The Lord of the Rings: Weapons and Warfare: An Illustrated Guide to the Battles, Armies and Armor of Middle-Earth

With little real experience the Bush administration must turn to fantasy to guide them in the conduct of their war. If they could only find a Gandalf the Good!

The posits of the flick are the small number of instances of terrible bad luck and frightening natural disasters which could exacerbate the dreadful situation the US now faces.

The negatives of the film are the assumption that the families such as the operators of the gas station will produce sons to serve in the armed forces for yet another crisis. What evidence leaks to the public right now is that Army Recruiters' greatest difficulty is getting past the US Veteran parent. The non-Vets wouldn't even think of enlisting a child.

There is also some over calculation of the fortitude of President Bush, whose tenacity is saluted through the film. Generally in the depths of the darkest days of crisis, The Bush has been first to take to heels.

Lastly US people frankly expect not to save themselves but await the timely intervention of the sagacious paternal foreigner here a Russian turncoat granted a seat in high council to save them. If a turncoat betrayed his own country, why should he be loyal to us? Those elements of self-serving self-congratulatory over-estimation of a reservoir of human resources to combat a pernicious enemy undercut the terrifying message that Oil Storm ought to send.

The merry circus of war crimes tribunals came to an end with the supposed ring leader Private Lyndie England convicted and sentenced to three years.

In the midst of tragi-comedy coming from the front, British centurion tanks burst into an Iraki (Quisling) jail to rescue British soldiers taken prisoner by the US installed Quisling regime. Several Iraki Quislings were killed in the onslaught of her Majesty's troops. Britain met the protests of the Quisling Minister of the Interior by showing him a dog collar. Ther is still some roar left in the old gal protecting her pride.

But it was all for show. Britain turned over its installations in Basra within a week to the Quislings. It is said Britain which entered the war to gain some influence above her weight intends to withdraw within one year.

The US economy continued to decline with more layoffs at the major corporations, and increased difficulty with the balance of trade. According to a British economist, the Aseatic nations are producing, and the Americans are buying with money borrowed from the producers. And as long as the Aseans lend, Americans can buy with borrowed money.
