    %UNMASKING CHOSEN BLIND LEADERS TOWARD VIOLENCE 870427

     It is painful  to unmask our chosen blind leaders who
lead us toward violence.

     We choose our leaders to do our bidding.  As a nation
of addicts we want to play collusive games of mutual  self
deception about our different ways of being addicted.   We
choose  our  leaders to help us play  dishonest  games  of
mutual self deception.

     Our  addictions  express  our frustrations  over  not
achieving  the kinds of control (over ourselves,   others,
events)   which  we believe we should  achieve.    In  our
frustration   we  fixate  upon  means  (alcohol,    drugs,
spending,  eating, work, weapons, etc.)  which temporarily
relieve our  frustrations---yet  ultimately  lead  to  the
disintegration of our lives and communities.

     Our addictions lead us to use violent means to try to
achieve control as our lives and communities disintegrate.
We  put  masks  on  to hide  our  addictions  and  present
ourselves as respectable and reasonable.   We put  similar
masks on our chosen leaders who do our bidding.  They help
us play our dishonest games.

     All  kinds  of addiction lead toward violence because
addicts  try  to achieve control over free  human  beings,
coercing free humans to conform to the addicts' wishes and
needs.  Addicts enslave free people, enlisting them in the
support of  the habits of addiction involving:    alcohol,
drugs, spending, eating, work, weapons, etc.

     Iowan's have  an  important responsibility in leading
the nation as it begins  consideration  of who should lead
lead the nation as president.  We need a President who has
the personal integrity and  leadership ability  to lead us
all  in  taking  off the  masks  we  use  to  conceal  our
addictions.   If we do  not  we  may find ourselves with a
President who will lead us into nuclear war as the logical
conclusion to our addiction to missiles,  nuclear  weapons
and   dishonest  defenses  against  them,   such  as   SDI
(Strategic Defense Initiative).
