  • GOOD AMERICANS — DEMOCRACY’S GRAVEDIGGERS?
    17 October 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    The one thing — the only thing — that George Bush has ever done successfully is campaign. That boy sure loves to play dress-up. He’s in his element strutting around in various costumes, while smirking and blinking before carefully vetted audiences whose members sign loyalty pledges and are conditioned to cheer and wave their flags as he gives the same smoke-’em-out-and-kill-’em-all stump speech over and over. And over again.
    Bush loves to talk about his bold vision and to brag about the (…)

    "A government that terrorizes its own people can never stop. If such a government ever lets the fear subside and rational thought return to the populace, that government is finished." Michael Rivero, What Really Happened
    It’s a good thing President George Bush doesn’t read newspapers or watch TV. If he did, even he could see that people from one end of this nation to the other are rapidly reaching zero tolerance with his bumbling ineptitude each time he is faced with a (…)

    "Sarah, if the people had ever known the truth about what we Bushes have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched." Bush 41 to reporter Sarah McClendon, Dec. 1992
    It’s an amazing thing. Doctors’ offices in New York and Washington will likely be standing-room-only in a couple of months. I can see it now — the look on a nurse’s face when she asks the vacuous, target-eyed media twits when they are "due," and each one chirps happily, "May (…)

    The Last Man To Concede...
    By Sheila Samples
    On November 3, just hours after Democratic vice-presidential hopeful John Edwards made a national announcement that he and John Kerry were not going to concede until all the votes were counted, Kerry grabbed the spotlight and conceded — before all the votes were counted.
    Kerry took the money and ran. Seems he couldn’t stick around because he and the missus were spending Christmas at a holiday extravaganza in Sun Valley as personal guests of (…)

  • Bush doesn’t ’misspeak.’ He lies. Lies. Lies."

    "They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one’s country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason." Ernest Hemmingway

    10/26/04 "ICH" — My friend Bernie says anyone who believes that George W. Bush’s war on terror isn’t a miserable, howling failure is surely a member of the media, a perp over at the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), or has had "the lobotomy." (…)

  • When The Fiends Cry, "Kill!"

    09/06/04 "ICH" — ...So I’m sitting here with a sack over my head, trying to come to grips with reality. Facts just don’t compute anymore. For example, it’s a fact that on Sept 7 the New York Yankees turned in the worst loss in their entire century of kicking baseball ass. It’s a fact that the Yanks lost 22-0 to the Cleveland Indians — but is it logical? Believable? Is it reasonable?
    My friend Bernie says stuff happens, even if only once a century and — sadly — even to (…)
