-Caveat Lector- (http://etherzone.com). THE TRAIN IS COMING IN ARI FLEISHCHER, YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHIN' YET By: Paul Fallavollita President Bush "condemned" anti-globalization protesters targeting the G-8 summit in Genoa, Italy. According to Reuters, Bush stated that "those who protest free trade seek to deny [the] best hope for escaping poverty." Bush’s plug for free trade, reminiscent of the prattle of the child’s toy, "speak-n’say," is wholly unremarkable. The event prompting his comments, however, indicates that the elites are taking more notice of the discontent their policies generate. A key rule for patriots should always be that when the elites are disturbed by something and don’t want it done, then we should investigate that thing and do it more. The nationalist approach to trade policy suffers from two key handicaps. The first is that the bulk of active protest against free trade comes from the Left, especially from anarcho-communists of various stripes. By "active" protest, this often means direct confrontation with the authorities, due to the desire of the anarchists to shut down the meetings by blocking the streets and otherwise creating an unsafe environment for the elites. Of course, we on the Right have an excellent excuse for our reticence: we tend to be clean-cut types, respectful of legitimate authority, and we endeavor to conduct ourselves in a dignified manner. Our general lack of nose rings and other such piercings attests to this, as does our regular use of items including shoes and soap. The second handicap is implicit in the first: those of us on the Right are prone to rely exclusively on words, even when we turn our attention to the problems caused by free trade. It is important that this second handicap of the Right not be misunderstood. Words mean things, as we learned from Richard Weaver’s classic Ideas Have Consequences. They represent ideas, and appeal to man’s exclusive domain of reason. Ideas are capable of serving as a powerful motivator, one that interacts with man’s spiritual element and keeps him fighting strong even when the odds seem overwhelmingly against him. The complications arising from over-reliance on words become evident in a pre-revolutionary climate in a nation, such as present day America. In such a climate, a sizeable proportion of the population expresses important ideas, yet are ignored by the elites in power. A prime example of this situation is the passage of NAFTA and its threatened expansion into the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA), despite the protests of many unionized workers who are threatened by the Janus-faced demon of liberal cosmopolitanism and exploitative global pan-capitalism. Given the fact the current power structure ignores the concerns and welfare of White Americans, is it any wonder that a trend of people physically lashing out is on the rise? The pen and the sword might yet combine and enhance their power. This is the reason why the Bush Administration’s Zionist silver-tongue, Ari Fleischer recently stated, "it’s becoming an unfortunate part of summitry that violence is becoming a standard…that distorts the goals of the summit." It is difficult to fathom how Fleischer, who is presumably politically savvy, can fail to appreciate how the "goals of the summit" create the very conditions that spur discontented people to try to "distort" those goals. Fleischer seems offended that the peons on the Global Plantation have the audacity to complain. His attitude is symptomatic of the appalling arrogance of power our ruling class indulges in, and it is indicative of a sycophant who at last can enjoy his position and the ability to talk down to the average citizen. Those of Fleischer’s ilk do not have the right to feel welcome or comfortable as they go about their nefarious business. They can count on resistance, and they can expect it to increase. Fleischer is a modern-day Marie Antoinette, and we know from history that such figures earn themselves places on the list of elites deserving "special consideration" by patriots when revolution or civil war breaks out. Speaking of which, how long can the liberals and mega-corporations continue to lull their victims to sleep with beer and football? Has Fleischer’s motley crew calculated these variables yet? Eventually, our second-rate rulers are going to slip up and push too far, too soon. With each outrage perpetrated against White Americans, the ranks of citizens awaiting the opportunity to strike a retaliatory blow increase. Fleischer’s friends should view his concerns as a clear warning. As the elites usher in their brave new world, the rightfully indignant discontents it creates will rise to smash it. Thomas Jefferson’s "long train of abuses" is approaching the station. Ari Fleischer, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Mail this article to a friend(s) in two clicks!
