“Whoever ‘controlled’ the understanding of 

(September 11) in America ‘controlled’ America, or at any rate was in a position to set 

the terms of disputes over political legitimacy in post (September 11) America.”    

The Burden of Responsibility   Tony Judt

he had copied it onto some scratch paper

to hold

and sometime later he went to share it as a header in a letter to his daughter

however 

he pulled back     

                         she might have been humored  but she was apolitical and wouldnt soon 

appear on any political list or foodchain unless he scribbled her name at its bottom

none of his children were political and he didnt know if that fact meant he failed them

or if because he was so virulently  --  nearly compulsively  --  political

                                                                                                                      and the WHO 

who controlled its terms

the disputes over post September 11s political legitimacy was Illegitimate

no more equipped to manage that fearsome awesome responsiblility than find its ass

with both its hands

his children found politics repellent

                                                             and while he also found politics repellent

Governance was critical

however

witnessing it subsumed by buffoons and mediocrity  that certain politicians could be 

elected by a majority of their constituents  what then  did that fact say of those Districts 

and Geographies who elected them 

                                                          it sufficed for him to say the carpetbombings broadcasted

during the 60s on the Evening News television channels  

which titillated their American viewers 

may have been more effective had they fallen inside America 

than outside it

              

last evenings News supported his wayward notion

                                                                                      It reported that militias of masked 

men (and women) Without Standing or Recognized by the American Government were 

terrorizing Central American refugees on the border between Texas and Mexico

Texass Governor  and His immediate lackey  running for Governor of Texas in November 

hadnt addressed or taken any action against the  --  politely  --  illegitimacy  --  honestly

  --  terrorism  --  inside their State                  

                                                                     and this to his mind was Evidence that the

political control who reigned degenerately in post September 11 America

had enabled this profanity

enabled cowardly masked American terrorists and deadpan barefaced political poseurs
