WORLDWIDE CALL TO ACTION: FREE
GEORGE W. BUSH
By Dave Gibbons
George W. Bush, a wealthy heir in the young nation of The United States,
is being held hostage.
Regardless of how one personally feels about a bloodthirsty hatemonger,
we have to agree that
no one should be imprisoned unjustly, even if he himself has promoted
unjust imprisonment.
Two wrongs don't etc. etc. So all fair-minded people around the world
must call on
George W. Bush's captors to free him NOW!
The captors: The Iron Triangle
Over five years ago, a militant group of anti-government rebels calling
themselves "The Iron Triangle"
began working to subjugate the son of a former US President. Raising
vast sums of money from
largely anonymous sources, The Iron Triangle was able to force the
innocent, simple heir
(a recovering substance abuser who is reportedly learning disabled)
to do their evil bidding,
from simply embarrassing public performances up to and including premeditated
murders
numbering in the hundreds. The aim of this group is nothing less than
a coup d'etat, installing
their captive as a puppet king with the title "President of the United
States."
The plot: Steal a United States Election
Under the arcane rules of the US constitution, such coups are largely
tolerated if the aggressors
perform a series of strange ceremonial acts (dubbed a "Presidential
campaign"). The duties include
making public speeches (feared by most worse than death), answering
questions from monied
interests who actually choose the President (the "Press"), and compelling
a small number of US
citizens to "vote," a process where white people are required to poke
holes in paper with sticks.
Brown-skinned people are systematically marginalized during this archaic
ceremony, with a
random number being allowed to participate while others are turned
away.
The evidence: Unanswered Questions (Many Unasked)
During the last five weeks of the campaign, after the captive heir
famously and repeatedly failed
to pronounce "subliminal" at an informal "Press avail," he was not
allowed to talk to the Press
"on the record." The only way one could hear George W. Bush talk about
The Iron Triangle's
policies was under the terms of his captors -- on their own stages,
with their own props, and
with their scripts. There was one notable exception, a five-minute,
heavily-scripted drunk
driving non-confession confession, but even then he only answered questions
about drunk
driving, not policy. Reliable sources say he couldn't sneeze without
permission from The Iron Triangle.
During the pre-election crisis, captors released one videotape of the
heir, obviously suffering from
torture and mental cruelty. The half-hour videotape was shown only
on the country's most right-wing
network (called the "Fox" by the secretive cabal that controls its
content). In classic hostage videotape
style, the tape shows a nervous captive stumbling over a script, clearly
terrified. Since this broadcast
was made on a Friday night (traditionally a night for not watching
television), it is estimated that only
two people (Brit Hume, who broadcast the tape, and this author) actually
saw the entire event. Other
television networks were unwilling to show the footage, deemed "too
gruesome" for general consumption.
As has been widely reported, after the ceremonial "election day" there
was some dispute over how
many brown-skinned people had been turned away. The Iron Triangle protested
that too many had
been allowed to participate, including Jews, who are generally not
brown-skinned but are traditionally
included in the "randomly disqualified" group. The contest was extended
until more votes pieces of
paper with holes could be attributed to these groups and randomly disqualified.
This presented a problem for The Iron Triangle. They had publicly promised
to release the captive
heir AFTER ELECTION DAY, installing him in the young nation's highest
office but enabling him
to speak freely. Weeks after the election, however, the heir is still
being held against his will.
Videotapes released in the post-election period show him bruised and
bandaged, still not allowed
to answer questions from the Press.
Meanwhile, militant thugs representing The Iron Triangle have intimidated
voting officials, physically
assaulted their opponents, and disrupted opposition speeches before
international observers. Though
this behavior is hard to understand -- even repellent -- in modern,
civilized democracies, it is not
unusual in corruptly-controlled nations in Africa, Central and South
America, Eastern Europe, and
some of the more militaristic areas of Asia. Arguably, it must be viewed
through that lens.
Call to action: Demand Freedom Now!
The United States has now been established as something of a hybrid
plutocratic monarchy, so no one
in the civilized world can expect it to behave with any respect for
democracy. Indeed, the local language
(also controlled by the Press) has been changed to accommodate the
anti-democracy movement's desire
to soften its image. Illegal and disgraceful election fraud is now
quaintly referred to by the Press as
"irregularities," not unlike minor digestive problems. However, even
the most hard-line right-wing
observers can agree that this continued illegal imprisonment of a wealthy
white person cannot be tolerated.
Tell The Iron Triangle to FREE GEORGE W. BUSH. Allow him to openly
answer questions about
his captivity, the policies he's been forced to adopt, the fabled "twin
daughters" we also never see,
and his criminal history. If they refuse to FREE GEORGE W. BUSH within
the next week, free
nations around the world must impose sanctions. Appropriate sanctions
for this ultra-rich cabal
should include the denial of visas to those who would come to the United
States as servants and
farm workers as well as the immediate nationalization of all US-owned
businesses in every free
country (essentially all businesses). Not even the ruthless forces
of The Iron Triangle would risk
alienating their wealthy backers, so the mere threat of such actions
will doubtless force them to
FREE GEORGE W. BUSH.
(I would warn leaders of free nations not to actually try to enforce
these sanctions, since The Iron
Triangle controls the US military. They will, without blinking, kill
you, expatriate your working-class
citizens, forcibly claim or reclaim any nationalized business, and
overthrow your government,
installing their own bizarre form of pseudo-democracy in your place.)
