REFLECTIONS

     Or the Conservatives according to the Wall Street Journal. The American press tends to associate our political factional terms upon foreign systems. [Have you ever heard the press call the head of Spanish government as President? No, we're told it's a prime minister because the figure head of state is a king.]

     Down Under will be ruled by Labour Party leader Kevin Rudd who vows to leave Iraq and approves the Kyoto Accords. The Liberal Party is in dispair as the expected post-election opposition leader Costello stepped down.

     Meanwhile over at the dailykos blog, the self-proclaimed rulers of the Democratic Party, are joyful AU Prime Minister Howard joins Spanish President Aznar, and UK Prime Minister Blair in removal from power. Ha!, thanks to the majority of the American voters in ’04 President Bush is still in power. Despite his losing the control of Congress by his Republican Party he has no intentions to act as if he were a lame-duck. There’s a civilization to defend, though far too many of its people don’t care.

     Our oldest ally since World War Two who didn’t back down but stood with us against the Soviet Union, Australia has joined the dehiscence of the West. In paraphrase of Jean Raspail’s 1975 novel The Camp of the Saints: the beast had undermined the West, slowly and surely. I sense the zeitgeist of the West is a macro-managing governance under the pretense of liberty. Those among us who are foolishly and unwitingly abetting the terrorists will suffer the worse in the West defeat — for their alternate life-styles are not tolerated by the terrorists. In short, We await the United States’ decision in November of ’08.
