In modern politics, rhetoric seems to be the substitute for reality, but at some point reality must break through. The rhetoric about creating 'democracy' in Iraq has been overshadowed by the reality that Iraq today is a pure hellhole of violence, murder, and brutish occupation by U.S. and British forces.

The rhetoric used to support the welfare state is that of 'creating and sustaining community,' but in reality what it has done is to create and sustain a hellish reservation system that not only encompasses the Native Americans, but also is the major factors in turning inner cities into war zones that completely are bereft of those very things we hold to be nature of real community...
