Expanding the Conflict

Looks to be a great weekend for billable hours.

The Bushies machinations are finally doing something positive for the local D.C economy, injecting mega-dollars into the ermine-lined pockets of a platoon of Merc Attorneys, the likes of which the World has seldom witnessed.

By now it should be crystal clear to anybody paying attention, the Bushies are in Panic Mode. It is absolutely imperative for their long-term survival that some sort of massive distraction occurs in the upcoming week.

Hurricane Wilma is a definite watch-and-see, as it threatens not only Florida, but the entire Eastern Seaboard, which has already seen record rainfall in the past weeks.

I suspect that the current climate calls for something larger in the way of a distraction. Larger and longer-lasting. Perhaps an expansion of the Iraq Clusterfuck into that Land of Hope and Opportuninty, Syria.

Hopefully, Fitz will unload a blizzard of indictments that unleashes a thorough cleansing, TOP to Bottom .

Once that is accomplished, the serious work of cleaning up George W. Bush's mess must begin in earnest. A restoration of our rights under Habeus Corpus would be a good place to start. In fact, the REPEALING of the so-called PATRIOT act should be given top priority. Even before the televised Treason Trials.

 

This Land Is Your Land.....

This Land Is My Land

In the next few weeks Congress will be voting on a budget bill that will allow oil drilling in one of America's last great, wild places.......Alaska's Arctic Refuge. Shamelessly exploiting the tragedy of Hurricanes Rita & Katrina, Dubya and his oil cronies are pressuring Congress to hand his irreplaceable national treasure over the the Oil Industry.

The best way to meet America's energy needs is to make America more energy efficient by,among other things, demanding higher mileage standards on the still exempt SUV's.NOT by allowing the oil industry to loot and despoil America's greatest wildlife sanctuary for what is estimated perhaps at best nine months supply of oil.

Alaska's Arctic Refuge is home to polar bears, arctic wolves and thousands of caribou. Don't let Dubya and his greedy partners in crime destroy our children and grandchildren's heritage so they can rake in a few more dollars. Once destroyed, this national treasure will be forever lost to future generations.

Support the National Resources Defense Council and send a message to your representatives in Congress. Just Say No!!!!

INTELLIGENT DESIGN?

The fanatical Christian Right apparently has all the
answers for what caused the Katrina tragedy.
Here's what Dubya's core supporters have to say:

 

"In my belief, God judged New Orleans for the sin of shedding innocent blood through abortion. Providence punishes national sins by national calamities. Greater divine judgement is coming upon America unless we repent of the sin of abortion".

Steve Lefemine- Columbia Christians for Life

 

"It seems clear that the prophetic times I have been expecting for decades have finally arrived.And even worse, it appears that the judgement of America has begun".

Hal Lindsey- Trinity Broadcasting

 

"This act of God destroyed a wicked city. From Girls Gone Wild to Southern decadence, New Orleans was a city that had its doors wide open to the public celebration of sin. We belive God is in control of the weather. The day Bourbon Street and the French Quarter was flooded was the day that 125,000 homosexuals were going to be celebrating sin in the streets....We're calling it an act of God".

Michael Marcavage- Repent America

 

"The whole parade of drunkeness, homosexuality and passions of the flesh was just washed away. If you believe in God, then you have no choice but to ask yourself whether God is making a statement".

Rev. Philip "Flip" Benham - Operation Save America

 

God has got to be shaking her head at these twisted, delusional people who are spewing such poison in Her name. If one was in a philosophical mood, one could consider the fact that Katrina, Rita & now Wilma are all striking the Gulf regions and Florida....long time Bush strongholds.Perhaps God IS making a statement.....could God be unhappy at the way Dubya and his greedy Big Big Industry cronies are continually looting and destroying Her beautiful planet in the name of the Almighty Dollar?
