After a hiatus of several weeks, rapid dissent is back in time for the run up to the November elections, or as it is being billed in the mainstream media: The Election of Death!!! TUESDAY, TUESDAY, TUESDAY! November 7th! NO HOLDS BARRED! The fate of all Humanity will be decided! Be there (or just watch the coverage from the comfort of your own home)!

Every election is important, and perhaps this election is particularly important as it will be a test of the Neoconservative mandate in Washington, but the media doesn't see it that way. Their interests lay in raking enough muck between now and November to justify their own existence as a profit making entity for the next two years. The bottom line IS the bottom line. See the round-the-clock nothing-else-in-the-world-matters coverage of the JonBenet Ramsey murder suspect arrest, the liquid on a motherfucking plane terror plot in the UK, and the EVERYBODY PANIC! mode of current weather reporting for example.

Fear not. For in this maelstrom of hyperbole and invective a voice of calm rationale will ring through the cacophony of self-serving Wall Street/Beltway sycophants to document the train wreck that the 2006 mid-term election will become.

Stay tuned.
