The Screwing of America and The Stain on The Flag

Karl Rove has screwed the American people. When Bill Clinton was condemned for getting a famous stain on a famous blue dress, the GOP went after him for over two years, crying "Impeachment! Clinton is a liar! IMPEACH!!!"

Well, now. Let’s cut to the chase, shall we? Karl Rove has outed a CIA agent and risked the lives of said agent as well as all her contacts in the world. His action, with the enthusiastic compliance of a couple of so-called unbiased news reporters, has made our country more vulnerable to terrorism. His behavior is beyond disgusting and criminal...it is UNPATRIOTIC. Karl Rove has possibly committed an act of treason.

At the very least, he has broken the law and compromised our national security. And...lies? Shall we count all the lies from this administration? How about the lies regarding nonexistent WMD that promoted an illegal invasion and destruction of a country that had never done anything against the American people? Yes, those are the lies that Joseph Wilson exposed to the world, lies that were corroborated by the infamous Downing Street Memo and largely ignored by the UNPATRIOTIC American media, who are nothing more than a GOP mouthpiece that has been criminally complicit in allowing Bush and his minions to deceive the American people, and to cover-up the numerous crimes and skullduggery of government and military officialdom and their US corporate shadows.

As the Karl Rove saga continues, it’s important that we keep in mind that Rove and Bush are joined at the hip. To assume that Bush is clueless about Rove’s actions is absurd. While everyone is focusing on Rove, maybe the REAL question is...did the historically vindictive Bush have a hand in this adventure? If he didn’t actually ORDER the outing of Valerie Plame, he MOST CERTAINLY knew his friend Rove was involved. To think otherwise is to live in denial with the tooth fairy and Osama bin Forgotten. I find it very interesting that the GOP isn’t all over this scandal the way they were when Clinton was screwing Monica and leaving stains on her blue dress. (Interesting...but not surprising. The neocons don’t EVER put the good of the country over party loyalty and corporate interests. Just check some of the pork barrel legislation that benefits big business at the expense of the American people, and my observation will prove to be correct).

Karl Rove has stained the the fabric of our American flag with his actions, and it’s long past time that the American people wake up and realize that while a love affair with an intern isn’t the most becoming behavior from a powerful politician, it definitely isn’t an act of treason. While a lie about sex isn’t going to hurt the country, a lie about sending our sons and daughters to die in an illegal and unprovoked war IS. While Bill Clinton lied to keep his personal life a secret, his lie didn’t kill anyone. And his lie didn’t compromise national security.

This administration is built on lies and crimes against the American people and humanity. Instead of telling the American people the TRUTH about these lies and crimes, we are inundated with more important news, like Michael Jackson, Scott Peterson, and Janet Jackson’s breast. The American media is totally beholden to the GOP military/corporate machine that feeds it, and we, the American people, are the "Monicas" of this cabal of thugs. We are ALL getting screwed. Iraqi citizens are getting screwed. The planet is getting screwed.

I don’t know about you, but I’m fed up.

It’s time to throw these bums out!

It’s time for the American people to DEMAND honesty and integrity in our government and in the media. Our taxes are paying for these crimes, and I, for one, am REALLY PISSED OFF that I am paying these thugs to screw me and the rest of my family. Look around you...wherever you live...and ask yourself... "Does my town need money for decent schools? Decent roads? Better water quality? Safe places for the kids to play? Enough food and shelter for everyone? Adequate medical facilities? How about Senior Services and Veterans’ Programs?"

If you’re like me, you will have noticed that your town is lacking in ALL those areas. Your local newspapers are telling you that there is no money. Yet, BILLIONS of our tax dollars are still unaccounted for in Iraq. We are even paying for SPACE MISSIONS because Bush has a "quirky little thing" for Mars. We’re paying for FREE SPEECH ZONE CAGES and POLICE TASERS and OTHER WEAPONS TO BE USED AGAINST US if we try to exercise our First Amendment rights to free speech and peaceful assembly.

We are paying for the libraries that the government feels free to enter and document our reading habits. The libraries are paid for with LOCAL TAXES...the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS NO RIGHT TO DICTATE HOW WE USE THEM. Protesters and teachers are called "Domestic Terrorists"!

Doesn’t something STINK? Don’t you wonder why there is no money for clean water for your kids to drink? Don’t you wonder why the people who WORK FOR US always seem to have MORE than the rest of us? Public servants who are elected to WORK FOR THE PEOPLE are too busy working for the corporate and pharmaceutical industry lobbyists to pay any attention to US. Their fat salaries and excellent benefits come out of OUR pockets, and many of those so-called public servants are MILLIONAIRES! GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK!

I am PISSED OFF, and I hope the American people will wake up and start taking ACTION before it’s too late. Our kids and grandkids have one hell of a dark, dangerous future with never-ending war and misery ahead of them unless we get these thugs OUT of Our White House and behind bars in The Big House where they belong.

Forget the partisan crap! We’re ALL in this together! Are we going to just SIT HERE AND LET THEM
SCREW US??? Are we going to let them screw our children?? This is MY COUNTRY. This is YOUR COUNTRY. This is AMERICA....NOT "THE HOMELAND," as these thugs like to call it. Why isn’t Homeland Security called "American Security"? What is WITH this creepy term?

An uncommon word to begin with, "homeland" became an everyday word after the Sept. 11 attacks and was institutionalized when President Bush created the Office of Homeland Security.

Jeff Neberman, who teaches European history at Boise State University, says it’s "right out of Nazi Germany." The German word "heimat" means "homeland" and was used by the Nazis. Others dispute a direct Nazi link and note various cultures have used the word, too.

"Homeland" has "obviously grated on quite a number of people," said Todd Gitlin, who teaches culture and sociology at Columbia University. "It feels like an import even if you’re not aware that its origins are German."

Leslie Savan, who wrote a book about advertising and popular culture, said "homeland" makes her think not only of Germany, but also of Russia and South Africa’s former apartheid government.

"It’s been one of those words that’s supposed to sound cozy and warm," she said. "But because it sounds cozy and warm it has been used by totalitarian governments." [Source: [http://www.hypocrites.com/article8273.html]

It’s time to stop wishing for change in AMERICA. It’s time to stop following the rules that our government creates for US, with a very DIFFERENT set of rules for themselves and their pals. It’s time to create new rules. It’s time to create the People’s Court on a massive scale, and bring these crooks and traitors to justice...REAL JUSTICE, not just your typical judiciary handslap that IMPORTANT PEOPLE GET and is so prevalent in the system today. Joe Blow gets life in prison for smoking a joint, and the REAL criminals in America are using our national silverware to pig out on Texas barbecue. Halliburton is laughing all the way to the bank when the American people are unable to afford the gas to get to work, and Martha Stewart does time because of a trumped up government plot to divert the people from their corporate criminal friends. By the way, does anyone know where we can send a card to Kenny-Boy Lay while he does HIS time? Oh! He’s NOT in prison? Really? I WONDER WHY, DON’T YOU?

Karl Rove is the tip of the iceberg, folks. It’s the first time we’ve been able to highlight ONE of this administration’s criminal, UNPATRIOTIC acts. Don’t let them bury it. Karl Rove is going to get a pass from Bush...you KNOW it. Don’t let him get a pass from the American people! Let’s call these thugs what they are...UNPATRIOTIC TRAITORS WHO HAVE SCREWED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

Don’t let them hide behind the flag. Don’t let them weasel their way out of this one. They mean great harm to all of us, and to our children and grandchildren. They mean great harm to innocent people all over the planet. They mean great harm to our liberties and freedoms. They mean great harm to the environment.

Karl Rove outed a CIA agent because he is a vindictive SOB who works for and with a vindictive SOB. He endangered our country, our children, and CIA contacts all over the world. He needs to be arrested and brought to trial IN PUBLIC. We must NOT allow this story to die. Our future depends on it. It’s time to protest at the media outlets. The media uses the publicly-owned airwaves to LIE to us. They have broken their trust with the American people, and we need to aggressively protest the criminal complicity of the Fourth Estate and let them, the government and the world know that "WE ARE MAD AS HELL AND WE AREN’T GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!"

Let’s roll!
