[Buddha-l] greed, hatred, & delusion

"...America is a land founded upon greed (for all the grant
rhetoric about inalienable rights, the revolution was basically
about not wanting to pay taxes, after all, and that obsession
appears not to have changed much down the years), developed
through greed, and it looks like greed may ultimately destroy the
place. Who better to deliver the coup de grace to a national
economy than a guy who is so stinking rich he doesn't remember
how many houses he owns? Who better to run the American Titanic
into an iceberg than the Navy veteran son of two generations of
admirals (especially one whose antics caused one of the biggest
non-hostile disasters on a US aircraft carrier in history)? Who
better to have to face the wrath of a nation than a guy who
couldn't even stand up to a pantywaist bully of a president who
had sucker-punched him repeatedly?

So I guess we can watch Obama channel Kerry and Gore with
equanimity. The Republicans are going to get what they deserve
anyhow, and we Americans, who bought the Kool-Aid for so long,
will get ours too."

Amen, sister.
