Dear Friends,
The
other day I have decided to close my eyes and as close as possible
transport myself to the day when I was may be three or four
and really enjoyed the scary fairy tales that my mother or my
father were telling me sometimes on their own and sometimes
through my insistence. The scariest one of them all was about
this monster that lived in the valley below (mind you I grew
up in a village way above the hill and from the window I could
see from miles this giant valley with the river in the bottom
and mountains way away) and was so big that his body stretched
from miles and it had so many heads and so many tentacles and
every time I saw smoke in the valley I asked my mother if that
was the monster (it was actually a farmer burning weeds) and
she said yes. Every full moon night when dogs were howling in
the distance my mother would remind me "this is the monster"
and you better go back to bed and sleep tight because I can
assure you he will not attack you. I saw then and I can still
see now a close reality of this vision that I invented in my
imaginations now tough I am faced with something that I can
compare to this giant monster "THE MEDIA" it resembles
so much that monster especially in one aspect it has nothing
good to say. The Media today just as the monster in my early
childhood had nothing good to offer but havoc. It is as if almost
on purpose that newsmen gloat at telling bad news at in sighting
controversy at upsetting this in order to please that or sometimes
inventing in order to stimulate more controversy and more reaction
and more bad news. I don't know if i should call this week a
sad one for America or a week in which we should laugh our heart
out. Spitzer the smartest attorney general and governor New
york has ever had did "the dummiest" stupid mistake
he has ever made. The mayor of Detroit equally smart as well
as dumb was caught in a sex scandal he fired two black police
man and accused them of racism, they sued and won nine million
from the city and now he is bitching and complaining that the
media caused all that for the Nielsen ratings and for all the
calls he received calling him by the "N" word. He
is counting on the fact that America forgives and he will be
let govern the city just like the other scum in Washington did
a few years back.The preacher of Obama blasts at America and
at Hillary and at the White race loving to recite the same "N"
word despised by both.
