    BURN THE BOOKS
    By Peter Fredson
    September 30, 2005
    “Down in the street little eddies of wind were whirling dust and torn paper into spirals, and though the sun was shining and the sky a harsh blue, there seemed to be no color in anything except the posters that were plastered everywhere. The black-mustachio’d face gazed down from every commanding corner. There was one on the house front immediately opposite. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption said, while the dark eyes looked deep (…)

    Speculation on True Believer Sexual Mores
    In older days it was reputed that some nutty or horny high school boys would get kicks from sniffing girl’s bicycle seats. In modern times you have Republican True Believers improving on the kicks by investigating people’s sexual habits in full juicy details to make them sweat and slaver. They never seem to tire of gossip about who is humping whom, the duration of the hump, the size of (…)

    Cindy Sheehan has aroused several hundred conservative bloggers, all determined to Swiftboat her in very strong terms. It seems that she met with Senator John McCain, and later called him a “war-monger.” This, to a loyal Bush supporter is intolerable.
    She and several supporters met with John McCain. She said that McCain simply told the group what George Bush might have said, and that she didn’t believe his answers to her questions. She stated: “He is a warmonger, and (…)

    IRREDUCIBLE COMPLEXITY
    By Peter Fredson
    September 26, 2005
    This morning I awoke at exactly 6:45 a.m., got up from bed, stubbed my toe on a chair, went to toilet at exactly 6:47, washed my hands at 6:48, went to the kitchen for a cup of tea but found the tea canister empty so had to go to the refrigerator. I found the milk carton with only half a glass of skim milk, drank it with my pills, opened the kitchen window to let a breeze in, listened to a bird warbling, then went back to the (…)

    A WHIFF OF TURD
    By Peter Fredson
    September 26, 2005
    Yesterday I returned from a walk around the block, turned on my TV and saw a blurry picture of Cindy Sheehan, with muffled sound. The picture was shot from below the lady, perhaps surreptitiously, at a bad angle. I could not make out what Ms. Sheehan said.
    Then the picture changed. A woman was shown in full clarity, with full clear sound and from the front. The contrast between presentation of the two speakers was remarkable, and (…)

    DO YOU FEEL SAFE?
    By Peter Fredson
    September 24, 2005
    George Bush has been running a propaganda scam for years now, basically telling us that he will keep us safe while scaring the Hell out of us. Well, we have spent several billion dollars on airport security and what do we have to show for it: several bushel baskets full of nail clippers, manicure scissors, pocket knives and assorted sharp instruments for practical applications. How many terrorists has Bush caught with all that (…)

    BENEDICT ARNOLD IN IRAQ

    A Political Rant
    September 23, 2005
    Many years ago, after marching through the Arch of Triumph in Paris on VE-Day, I asked for a short leave to try to contact relatives in Norway. I had not heard from them since 1940 and was worried that the war had not treated them kindly. However my request to visit Norway was denied. The reason was simple: all transportation was disrupted, roads impassable in many regions, the food shortage was acute, and (…)

    By Peter Fredson
    We wonder by what right American soldiers are walking around in Iraq with weapons in hand, far from Brooklyn or Crawford, Texas, shooting at the inhabitants of Iraq, destroying their homes, knocking down their businesses, destroying their infrastructure, lobbing grenades into rooms, pointing automatic weapons ceaselessly at people? We know they didn’t go to Iraq as tourists to look at one of the earliest civilizations in the world.
    We know they were commanded, as (…)

    by Peter Fredson
    Katrina has come and gone and has left both the Gulf Coast and George Bush’s reputation soiled, in tatters, dirtied and in need of a lot of urgent repair. Bush’s credibility is close to zero in many reporters’ estimation; any statement he makes is self-serving and must be scanned carefully for deceit, misinformation and outright lies. His “dry-drunk” attitude, irritability and religious fervor is detrimental to his image of himself.
    His entire administration has (…)

    We are so glad that you recognized that race and poverty are part of your enduring legacy. You certainly deserve a lot of the credit for accelerating them. For a while we were not sure that you recognized that the U.S. actually had homeless people.
    We had the impression that you thought they lived above hot-air grates and around dumpsters by choice. We realize that you may not actually LIKE blacks and bums, but now we know that you are at least aware that they exist and (…)
