As I reported in my essay, �Off With Their Heads,� here, Laura Bush gave the nation�s initial weekly presidential radio address by a �First Lady,� inaugurating the finally-blatant Gynocracy by turning the �War on Terrorism� into an expansion of American feminism. Mama Bush offered a catalog of examples of mistreatment of �women and children� by the Evil Taliban --this in a land teeming with forcefully conscripted, crippled and dead males, many of whom did not survive adolescence.

Ms. Bush and the U.S. State Department had conveniently prepared and released a nine-page report, �The Taliban�s War Against Women.� How very Professional of them.

On November 28 Ashcroft announced the creation of an on-line �Toolkit to End Violence Against Women.� Ashcroft called it �...a living document that will continually evolve.� What a shame the same evolution is inapplicable to Ashcroft, the Bush Bunch, and Western feminists. As for whether they are �living� or not, I suspect old Baptist John would term them soul-dead � hold the water, boys, it�s no use. In an essentially fatherless, emasculated nation in which multitudes of unbiased studies conclude that approximately half of domestic violence is initiated and perpetrated by women, we should all pause to consider � very carefully consider � how such �living documents� will �evolve.�

American men � what�s left of you � take note: ashen-faced, crafty Mr. Ashcroft is a major leader of the political party that purportedly protects your interests. He is the refuge to which you run from the sink-hole of entitlement, discrimination, paranoia, and covert vengeance that the Democrats have become. But to ashes he will lead you and the nation.

American men have been living under a State of Terror for over thirty years now. Yet clouds ten shades darker gather on the horizon. A "living, evolving document" said our friend Mr. Ashcroft.

Meanwhile Ashcroft�s accomplice in spirituality, George Bush, Jr., dreams of building a trillion-dollar missile defense shield around the entire United States. With unabashed moral supremacy he peddles "Operation Eternal Justice," pursuing �evildoers� across the globe as gleefully as he fried inmates and imprisoned pot-smokers in Texas. By extension, America also seeks to build a heaven-high fence around all women and �their� children, against the Evil Male Perpetrator.

Do you still imagine you have two independent political parties providing checks-and-balances against one another? Imagine on, then, if it pays the rent. Tweedledum and Tweedledee is what you have, the unholy alliance of the Empowered Witch of the Left and the Toxic King of the Right. Sickness. The Wasteland. The un-coniunctio.

After the electorate was sold an ex-Director of the CIA as �President,� we are now re-sold the same lemon in his brain-damaged son, who pretends to the throne with the credentials of a fox.

On December 3 the New York Times inferred the likelihood that the lethal anthrax spreading around the nation was produced by the United States� own bio-warfare program.
Today, December 4, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, with Bush�s backing, declared �an unfettered war on terrorism.� Well, at least something on the planet will be unfettered.
Beginning to notice any replicating themes? �As you sow, so shall you reap� might be a good place to start.

This is madness, and our plagues have only begun. This is Death by Protection, and it is quintessentially matriarchal. Freedom is the abstraction, the sky-high phantasm, of the free male. There aren�t many of them left in Wonderland any more. Oz is rubble too.

Junior Bush and John Ashcroft style themselves Alpha Males, Boss Terminators of all �evildoers.� But in fact they are merely slaves of the Wicked Witch of the West.

Eternal Justice by Flying Monkeys. Dorothy come home, Dorothy come home!

Sorry, Aunt Em, she's sleeping in the Witch's Castle, and the hourglass has about run out.

America has cast its lot for vengeance over mercy, perfect protection over tolerance, power over love. It believes it can build ionospheric panty-shields, conjure thousand-foot electro-wire screens over every public building, around every water supply and generating station. It dreams it can patrol every post office, inspect every letter. We demand the incarceration of our next-door-neighbors, while we cheat our customers, fill the pews, and place pins in Fido�s gravy. And most amazingly, we believe that external and internal police states can eradicate �evil� in every form -- or in any form.

Woe unto thee, America, for your fantasies of perfect protection summon doom. By inclusion only will you be saved.

�Welcome to the henhouse,� says El Diablo, reassuringly patting an open hotseat.

Downward spirals the labyrinth. Dearest America. Love of my life. No missile screen will safe-keep you. No prison will long hold back the monsters you create. You will learn to love your brother or even the hallucination of security will be stripped from you, as well as the roofs from your castles, no matter how armored the guards.

You just keep pushing, hear?
