Tabacco: When corporations or Individuals seek to pick your pocket with Immoral, if not technically Illegal methods, they ALWAYS LIE ABOUT MOTIVES! When will you figure that out! Whether the Public buys those “excuses” largely depends on whether or not the MSM gives “Lip Service” to it.
Mike Bloomberg is a very smart businessman, who serves turkey dinners to the Poor on Thanksgiving while the cameras roll, takes only $1 per annum to serve as New York’s Mayor and declines to live in Gracie Mansion. Mike doesn’t need or want “tips” or inferior accommodations.
As Mayor of New York City, Bloomberg can and does cut much BIGGER PERSONAL DEALS for himself. Want proof Mike’s a sharp businessman? Mike is a BILLIONAIRE! QED!
And he spent his own money to get reelected once again. He didn’t do it for you; he did it for Michael Bloomberg! How STUPID do you have to be, MSM LIES OF OMISSION notwithstanding, not to see through that Subterfuge!
“But, Tabacco”, you object, “Bloomberg doesn’t need the money! Why would he take graft!” To that I respond, “Why didn’t Bernie Madoff cease and desist! Why do oil magnates continue to capitalize on the backs of Americans losing their jobs and homes! To these Capitalists, the pursuit of more and more is all they know. Without it, their empty lives would be unbearable. Beg, borrow, scam or steal – the pursuit of great wealth is the only thing that drives Capitalists.
The Bloomberg Syndrome can be summed up with the following ridiculously incorrect but often quoted aphorism:
Bush and his Cronies LIED about Saddam’s WMDs, his alleged 9/11/2001 COMPLICITY with Osama bin Laden etc. Do you really believe the Bush Administration was that dumb - that they believed their own lies! Then why did they hunger, yearn, entreaty, conspire and lie to achieve War in Iraq? I will tell you why!
Their motives were obvious and simplistic. Their Strategies and Tactics were obvious and simplistic. So why did the Mainstream Media fail to mention these Machiavellian aspects or, if mentioned, discredit, deny and denigrate!
Whenever anyone makes an assertion that is “politically incorrect” and counters what we wish to believe is impossible, the only refutations acceptable are logic, facts and impossibilities not unfounded alibis by friends, families and paid protagonists, false witness and appeal to authority.
Particularly in the March to War, we must demand PROOF, and not be dissuaded by assertions of “protecting national security” or “protecting our sources”. If our leaders will not give us the facts and photos as John F. Kennedy did re the Russian Nuclear Weapons buildup in Cuba, then we must NOT TRUST THEM. Ronald Reagan himself said, “Trust, but VERIFY!” Reagan was observing “political correctness” - Tabacco abhors “political correctness”! I observe the unvarnished TRUTH! Truth and Political Correctness are mutually INCOMPATIBLE! Tabacco trusts no one unless and until he or she proves him- or herself trustworthy and truthful 100% of the time. Bush NEVER passed that THRESHHOLD! Neither did Reagan for that matter!
See, Tabacco keeps his promises!
I left out the Religious Right Fanatics, Right-Wing Talking Heads, Ancillary Corporate Entities which also profited, military brass etc because these groups were either duped, easily influenced political parrots, those who fear anything you say is dangerous or the just plain stupid!
The 3 categories I just named are obvious because those are the Industries, which profited most from the War in Iraq. You must always suspect anyone, who profits from War, especially when they advocate and proselytize for that War!
1 - OIL! Saddam Hussein had made oil deals with the French, the Germans and the Russians. He excluded the Americans! That was NOT an oversight on his part. He disliked and distrusted the USA and with very good reason.
Bush had to act swiftly and decisively to void those deals and get the oil for American Oil Interests. British Petroleum may get some, but all the rest comes here! Bush even attempted to make American Oil Companies part of Iraq’s new Constitution! Bushites did not grant Big Oil this boon solely for the profit of Big Oil - since when do Capitalist Politicians do anything without a personal, selfish profit-motive or public relations vote-gathering intent!
One of the consequences of US monopoly and misappropriation of Iraqi Oil is the Russians’ invasion of Georgia to recover the lost Iraqi source! The first thing the US military did upon invading Iraq was not to secure Iraqi water sources, electricity or other essential industries, but the OIL FIELDS! “The proof of the pudding is in the eating!”
Yes Tabacco relies heavily on PRE (Political Reverse Engineering). You may not see through nefarious INTENT, but to overlook and underestimate nefarious DEED is abominably stupid and unforgivable!
2 - MILITARY CONTRACTORS! When Military Contractors are totally dependent upon nations who pay them and upon those nations fighting perpetual wars, requiring their services, if those Contractors are not employed, their Owners are paying salaries, purchasing equipment and food rations for no return on investment. Need I say more!
In addition, Military Contractors are not subject to the same “Rules of Engagement” as our Troops. Their Transgressions, Rapes & Genocides are comparable to a 007 “License To Kill”!
3 - MILITARY MUNITIONS MANUFACTURERS! Similar, but not as irreconcilably linked to actual War as Contractors are, nevertheless Military Munitions demand rises precipitously during War. No War, minimal profits! Big War, maximal Profits! If you owned a Military Munitions operation, would you prefer Peace or War! The correct answer is OBVIOUS!
Wars have been fought for profit since Day 1! Animals and Insects, which form armies, do the same thing - they fight for Profit!
Fear of an Enemy is more often a USEFUL TOOL to inspire soldiers than a viable fact. Indians always broke Treaties, didn’t they! And they were savages, who raped and scalped. You wouldn’t become a POW, you’d become a corpse! Who ever heard of Indians leaving witnesses or taking prisoners, with the exception of pretty, young Caucasian females! And everybody knew what that meant!
Those Brits in their bright red, easily spotted, sitting duck uniforms and tight formations created a problem because there were no obvious physical distinctions our side could focus on and unreasonably fear. “Taxation without representation” was a marvelously effective SLOGAN, but rather devious and misunderstood. Does it really make any difference to you less-than-rich whether the Taxes are imposed by Brits or by fellow Americans? Taxes are Taxes!
But people are now and always have been easily stampeded, highly unlikely to question or analyze popular political correctness, particularly when such questioning or analysis is met with charges of “Anti-Americanism”, “Cut-And-Run” or worse!
Germans had Hitler with that sinister mustache! Too bad we didn’t know about those Concentration Camps and those Roasting Ovens sooner - what Negative Inspiration that would have been! If you lost that War, were not blue-haired and blond-eyed, even if Caucasian, your future would be the history of Negroes in America!
Japs were Terrorists, who practiced Jujitsu and sneak attacks. Japs made it easier to hate them because they deliberately sported those slanted eyes - obviously they were backstabbing, Marquis of Queensbury deficient SOBs. And we all know how treacherous short people can be!
Ditto the Koreans and Vietnamese! Denied the disadvantage of BLACK SKIN, SLANTED EYES are a serviceable inspiration to induce fear in our soldiers and genocidal murder in their hearts - KILL OR BE KILLED!
But we have advanced beyond ignorant fear and hatred of Enemies because of skin color, eyes or some other physical distinction. We have come a long way! Now we fear and hate, not because of physical distinctions, but because of how our enemy worships God? The Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland have been at War for centuries! And both are Christian - ALLEGEDLY!
But it’s those Muslim factions, who commit genocide on their own, not Protestants and Catholics! How savage those Muslims are! How evil their religion! Not at all like Jews and Christians! Did I forget to mention again the dislike between regular Capitalist Jews and Orthodox Jews! Well, at least this time it’s not the Black Jews, who get all the attention! It’s those funny hats the Orthodoxers wear! Well, I guess Jews have taken a step backward!
And that PROTECTOR OF UNBORN FETUSES - THE CATHOLIC CHURCH - cares more about its own PEDOPHILE PRIESTS & ITS OWN PROFITS than those innocent children, who are SEXUALLY ABUSED BY ITS PRIESTS - and not just in Ireland! Surely the Pope cannot be Christian! His Holiness must be of the Islamic faith!
“ISLAMO-FASCISTS” sounds terrible, doesn’t it! But so does that political denigration of yonder times - “notorious thespian” - particularly to under-educated folks, unfamiliar with the term “thespian”!
But these are “MERE TRICKS”, you say with candor and pride of discovery! Of course they are and always have been! Can you say, “Black President”, “Birther”, “Deather”, “Islamo-Fascist”, “Tories”, “Japs”, “Nazis”, “Heathens” and “Liberty Cabbage”!
Tabacco: I consider myself both a funnel and a filter. I funnel information, not readily available on the Mass Media, which is ignored and/or suppressed. I filter out the irrelevancies and trivialities to save both the time and effort of my Readers and bring consternation to the enemies of Truth & Fairness! When you read Tabacco, if you don’t learn something NEW, I’ve wasted your time.
Tabacco is not a blogger, who thinks; I am a Thinker, who blogs.

Did I forget to mention that WAR is the only Growth Industry in which
Disaster Capitalists make all the profits and Taxpayers pay all the Bills!
Why is it that people, who go insane, do not quote Darwin, Einstein or
Goethe but do quote the Holy Bible? Are they trying to tell us something?
