Thank you, 999, for being understanding and responsive, in place of defensive and re-active!
It has been, in times of 'past posts', that someone misinterprets what I say, to fit a 'triggered response', generally from the 'left' point of view, and they get all nasty and defensive of 'it', thinking that I'm 'attacking' from the 'right'. Not so. Just trying to 'reason' with someone 'INSIDE THERE', as in 'anybody home?'.
While I'm at that point, I'd like to clarify something in your post, and I think you may see the fine line, of what I refer to, when I show my 'disapproval' of the 'talking point parrots'....

    "I think the difference between the two (SW and GfS) is that SW targets Obama, and GfS targets government as a whole. I'm not at all convinced that government deserves the trust of you, the people. Just as folks can tire of the same ol' same ol', I think that GfS's posts over time have been consistent, just as have many of those posted here by so many of you. We all have difficulty with stupidity, and nothing brings that out faster than religion or politics."

It's NOT 'government, I target as a whole'..but the corruption, that grows a cancer within the body politic, and that cancer has used 'issues' and policies to promote a 'solution'...which, up to date, has brought us, as a nation, moral, financial, emotional, mental 'stress' on the brink of ruin..and to push through bogus 'fix-it programs', and to bring 'allowances', they've managed to get us all bickering over 'baseless issues'!....That are 'off topic' to the higher priorities!
Shit, don't you think that those who corrupt our SYSTEM, do it by only being within ONE party??? That's just plain dumb!
Every...EVERY major issue brought up within the past 40 years, or more, were done so, for someone's financial profit...and it wasn't the people's, who support the whole thing!...and that means YOU, as well as those who you've been designating as 'opponents'!.....The guys that get screwed, are US!..both parties, any race, color, any creed, anybody!...and it's the accommodation for this corruption, and the scripted excuses made to excuse it, and the motive....that we, as musicians, with a social conscience, should be free of, and put those energies, into musical communication, with a nation that has been victimized, whether here or in the UK, by these national psychic-vampires! WE have the tools.....if we only learn how to use them effectively, TO BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER!.....however, I can see, that before we can do that, we need to RESOLVE, those issues within us!...and I don't think, anyone here, who has been watching the current events unfold, can get away with denying that ANY of it, deserves an 'EXCUSE'! It needs to be corrected, and as I posted before, in another 'Closed' thread, it comes UP in people's hearts, and THEN UP from the streets. There is a MASSIVE audience out there waiting....but the messengers are still bickering about bullshit, and are too drunk in it to show up to the gig!

Thank You 999!! for your insights....and as much of a pain in the ass that some make me out to be, even a very tenacious pain in the ass...I'M ON YOU SIDE!!...(as musicians, growing up in the same times), and NOT forgetting, nor selling out!....just gotta' hack through some of the 'acquired bullshit' to get there!

Warmest Regards!.........To ALL(if you can receive it).
