Puppet Show


Lady Gaga and POTUS are twins separated at birth. Both are pure media creations - holograms. Nobody in their right mind would admit to being a fan. It’s all smoke and mirrors for the gullible; the mind-numbed; the disturbed.

There is no substance here. To pretend otherwise is delusional. The support is virtual, as are the crowds. Nobody is fooled - only the spin machine has gone into overdrive and has devolved into chasing its own tail.

The worst that can happen to anyone is to believe in one’s own spin. Eventually one trails off into madness - a state where nothing fits anymore. Iran has already gone that way. China is on its way; and America is going there fast.

This is what following the money has brought us: the belief that one can buy anything - even public office. The lesson learned should be taken from the story of Judas Iscariot. Forty coins were said to have put the machinery in motion that established a new religion. Those same forty coins amounted to the price of a potter’s field. It’s absurd to equate the two on the basis of value. Equally absurd is to consider the Gaga twins and pronounce them a trend. The trend would exist whether the flotsam twins were here or not. Puppets are interchangeable. The progression - sometimes slow; sometimes fast - of history is not.

We can only hold on to the faith that everything balances out in the end; that everything is self-correcting. America, to the extent that she has sinned, will suffer. I don’t think it will be as bad as some make it out to be. I also believe that America will find her way.

America will not remain forever distracted by the Kasperliteater that’s been set up in the market square while anarchists remain active on the perimeter, pouring accelerant on buildings.
