Wiser but weaker
One generation calls to the next

by Kathy Fisher, Unknown News

Aug. 24, 2004

There's an old saying my mother would use frequently when I was growing up: "Generations will become wiser but weaker."

Being the young whippersnapper of a kid I was back then, I thought it meant that in the future, as we grew older, things would get easier. With our newfound knowledge, we would find a better, faster way to do our work without busting our hump, and in the process we would grow fat and lazy from lack of hard physical work. Thus, I thought, we were destined to become "wiser but weaker" ...

But as I grew up I learned that that was not it at all.

Generations will become wiser, hip to who's pulling the strings of our so-called leaders, hip to who's telling the lies, who's ripping us off, who's poisoning us.

We will and have come to understand who is putting us into danger, who is leading us into one war after another, who has written a twisted book full of NWO laws called the PATRIOT Act and PATRIOT Act II, all so they can have total control over us. We know why the cameras are really focussed on us, on Americans, and not on the fake phony terrorists our leaders have made up for us to be afraid of.
When you’re done dancing in the streets,

when you’re done buying all your new cars,

when you’re done stuffing your mouths with burgers and kissing all your girlfriends ...

When you’re sick of paying $3.50 for a crappuccino,

when you’re done ignoring what’s really going on in the real world,

when you’re done lying to yourselves thinking you still have the freedom to do and say anything you please,

when your done with all the bullshit you continue to claim is your lifestyle,

when you finally put the cell phones down,

when you are ready to throw away your Prozac,

when you wake up and smell the stench of all the bullshit that’s been thrown at you,

when you get tired of working three jobs,

when you’ve had enough of seeing your friends die for that useless war in Iraq,

when your get tired and pissed off enough that you want to do something about it ...

Well, then maybe you’ll get up off your asses and help me start the Revolution.

Yes, we have become wiser alright, but here comes that weaker part I was warned about:

We no longer have the power to rid ourselves of these parasites of tyranny. We have become infested with them, but the weight of their fat asses riding on our backs has made us weak. It is impossible to simply shake them off.

And so, my friends, we must watch as they have their way with our weakened bodies, and play tricks on what's left of our wiser minds. If I may let me rewrite the saying.

So let the generations get wise, by all means! As long as they are wise enough not let their freedoms get weak.

Or you can always get ready to be drafted into the NWO’s perpetual war, where every son and daughter(excluding any politician’s kids) dies for the greed of a few self-chosen, self-righteous greedy bastards.

Hey I’m talking to you! Put the walkman down, wake up, or march to boot camp.
