Want Some More WTFF? Then read this: Conquering the Drawbacks of Democracy I'll be over here, waiting. ::sits patiently:: Welcome back! Need a drink? I did, after reading that shit. Fucking unbelievable, ain't it? This is the Right showing its true colors - authoritarian, contemptuous of democracy and the rule of law, enthusiastically in favor of genocide. The site on which that was originally published, "The Family Security Foundation", has since tried to shove it down the Memory Hole, but it's still available in Google's archives. I'm thinking they weren't quite ready to come out openly in favor of C-Plus Augustus staging a coup. We can't reason with the lunatic right, not until we've slapped them down a little more. They've done got too big for their britches, and we need to remind them who the grownups are. | Monday, August 20, 2007

Like Giving An Alcoholic An All You Can Drink Voucher And The Keys To A Steamroller Our Wise And Benevolent Leaders are concerned about the death penalty. Thousands of men sit on Death Row in their various states, trying desperately for years - decades, in some cases - through appeal after appeal to avoid being put to death. Our Dear Leaders are concerned about what that kind of indefinite waiting does to those poor prisoners, so they've come up with a cunning solution. Why not let the Worst Attorney General EVAR interfere in the appeals process? The US justice department is reviewing legal procedures to speed up executions to prevent prisoners spending decades on death row.Man, isn't that wonderful? Such caring people. Abu Gonzales, you may remember, "helped" then-Governor Bush in Texas by reviewing pleas for clemency for him. Why, some appeals got a whole 2-3 seconds before Abu G put them down and wandered off to apply electrodes to the genitals of some poor unfortunate intern. That led to some pretty disgusting examples of the machineries of death grinding some poor guy into little bits. Think about it - do you want the toilet-sucking moron that declared the Geneva Conventions were a "quaint" notion, the festering pile of ass-leakage that provided the legal justification for our current regime of torture, do you want a man so addle-pated that he thinks George W. Bush is a great mind making life or death decisions? I mean, for Chrissakes, I wouldn't trust that stupid sonofabitch to make a decision about shining his goddamn shoes! We've got until September 23rd to say something to the Justice Department about these proposed rules. Here's where to contact them. I don't have any illusions that we'll be heeded, but I refuse to go down in history as one of the silent majority that stood by while the biggest gang of sadistic, sociopathic kleptocrats the world has ever seen raped our country. | Friday, August 10, 2007
What The Fucking Hell? Stu Bykofsky of the Philadelphia Daily News thinks We need another 9/11. ONE MONTH from The Anniversary, I'm thinking another 9/11 would help America. Bullshit. The enemy is anyone that's out to destroy America. The so-called "islamists" might want to destroy America, but they can't. It's beyond their capability to do that - we're too big. The enemy that can hurt us is us. George Bush, Dick Cheney, Alberto Gonzales, Karl Rove - that entire cabal of selfish, petty tyrants intent upon grabbing as much power in their greasy hands as possible, Constitution be damned. The GOP in Congress, with its rubber-stamp policy towards anything Our Dear Leader tells them he wants. The Democrats in Congress, the ones that voted without question to expand Bush's wiretapping power ass well as the ones that stood by and didn't even try to stop it. The media, with its uncritical acceptance of right-wing talking points, blatant lies and propoganda. So-called "pundits", incapable of understanding that there is an America outside the DC beltway, and that there's more of us than there are of them. Thousands of state and local politicians that care more about their reelection than serving the people. The rich, unconcerned with anything except stealing a larger slice of the pie from America's workers. Corporations, raping our country for obscene profits and monstrous executive compensation packages. Voters that either don't bother to vote or refuse to actually think about their choices. We've let George Bush and his cronies do more damage to our Constitution and our nation than Osama bin Laden dreams of in his most twisted fantasies. The Soviet Union couldn't hurt us like we've let Bush hurt us. The British only managed to burn down the White House in 1812 - we've eagerly cheered while George Bush wipes his ass with the Constitution. We don't need another 9/11 to pull us together, we need a goddamn Bastille Day or February Revolution. We need to clean house. It's just a matter of deciding where to start. | Friday, August 03, 2007
Miscellany Sorry for the lack of postage lately - it's been crazy busy here, what with all the job stuff going on. Here's the scoop on my life: I've got a job, until January. At that point, I'll be at odds and ends, hopefully with a large chuck of severance in my pocket. In between, I'll be sticking around here with the exception of a two week trip to India to train my replacements. The kids are fine, Melissa's fine and I'm trying to get plans made for a late 40th birthday party - probably in September, but there will be a live band, food and alcohol for them as can make it. Yes, I turn 40 at the end of this month. At the moment, I have no plans to get any of the following: hair transplants, 20-something girl- or boy-friends, gold chains, a sports car or a fondness for golf. I am thinking, though, that a Nintendo Wii would be nice. I might save up for one of them. In other news, orangutans can play charades! | |
