Wake up America

Paul Craig Roberts lays out the strategic position of the US in stark but accurate terms in Counterpunch:

a country whose foreign policy goal is world hegemony will continue on the path to destruction until the rest of the world ceases to finance its existence

Voters, I can't tell you that Obama would veer from the path to destruction. But there is a good chance he would, and the part of the world that "finances [our] existence" will give him the chance to correct our path. John McCain, on the other hand, has tunnel vision, and at the end of his tunnel there is no light, just the "path to destruction" envisioned by Roberts, ending in an abyss that could make the Hanoi Hilton appear worthy of Paris Hilton.

The rule of Bush-Cheney has messed up this country beyond repair. Obama is our best hope to clean it up.
