Finally, in the 2009 presidential election the citizens of the United States roused themselves out of their long Republican induced stupor and began clearing the fanatic right-wing elements out of offices that are expected to represent the people. Eight years of having two corporate hustlers sitting in the highest seats of government had plunged the nation noted for individual freedoms into a so-called “Christian nation” that turned its back on the principles stated in the Constitution, the very principles that had made the nation great. The chipping away at constitutional rights began almost immediately with no apparent recognition of the irreverence and disrespect of having held their hands on the Holy Bible while swearing before God to honor, uphold and protect the Constitution.
The attempt was quickly taken up by the new administration to impose a parochial view of control upon the nation as was once practiced by the “god-fearing” characters in the Old Testament. The Bible to be used as law allowed for savage attacks upon anyone deemed too independent. According to the theocratic notion which they sought to impose, the right of a woman to determine what was to grow within her own body was to be denied: the sovereignty of the family was to take precedence over individual rights: unruly children were to be stoned: same sex minorities were to be denied the right to a committed relationship: and the Christian religion (their particular narrow brand) was to control how everyone was to live, meaning that democracy was to be replaced by theocracy. The irony of these fanatics calling themselves “Christians” while using the gross tales of the Old Testament as the model of governing does not exactly equate with the early teaching attributed to Jesus in the New Testament.
The terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York in 2001 seemed a peculiarly—almost uncannily convenient event for those who had schemed of taking control of democracy. It seemed that God had smoothed the way for corporate profits. After all, an array of corporations had worked to ensure that a “man chosen by God” would be placed in the Oval Office. Of course it didn’t hurt that corporation big-wigs had developed a collation of think tanks—and don’t forget their false-front not-for-profit outfits that they established to justify their political tampering. With the heavily tilted Republican and Catholic-leaning Superior Court’s help, God’s plan had been set into effect.
Thus a twenty-first century “Crusade,” declared by God’s alleged choice for U.S. president, became the needed motive to begin implementation of theocratic management. In order to grab full control of national acceptance it was vital to change the viewpoints and traditions of the American public. Corporation pundits knew just how to do this: build up a facade of respectability for any proposed route that led into corporate profits. Thus the Neoconservatives—or “Neocons”—came into full bloom which, in actuality, act as the public relations firm that works for those predatory corporation that operate through the government.
Corporate interests are never concerned about public welfare: the only “god” they turly worship is materialism. It does not matter to them if a formerly little-respected segment of the Christian community was making threatening waves in a democratic culture devoted to equal opportunity. The power conversion that the corporate fat cats eagerly supported and assisted had nothing to do with religion or in support of personal freedoms. As far as the corporate schemers are concerned, any shift in governing affairs is profitable for them: it is peace, mutual respect, and rational discussion on national problems that pose the real threat to fat-cat’s wallets. That corporate approach can be said to be religious in a sense, however: they operate on the same practices of half-truths and scare tactics that served as the foundation for all hard-line religions.
