the advancement of the reversal has hit some snags
time for me to bitch about the system:
in yesterday's boston globe, along side the main article of hussien's kids killed (good for everybody), was an article about how one of national security advisor rice's assistants is the one that screwed up the state of the union "mistake."
but i thought tenet of the cia was to blame? he said he shouldn't have let the statement in the address, but he also told some members of congress during a hearing that he had never read the speech. so it's this guy hadley's fault.
so who is really to blame for this? i was against the administration's reasons for the invasion of iraq long time ago. i won't even buy their bullshit about how it's about the people of iraq and liberating oppressed people. that's a fine and dandy reason, but then why are we dilly-dallying over 2400 troops for liberia? who is actually in some serious need of american military muscle. oh, that's right. we still have 140,000 troops in iraq (i hope to God that the fatalities of our troops will stop in iraq) and no real plan for getting that country set up as exxonmobil middle east.
there is a coverup about the real reason we went to war. rumsfeld should just come out and say, "yeah, i bullied powell and bush into doing this. bush was easy. it just took a cookie. but i had to beat the colonel a bit to bring him to our side. it's my call, and i'm glad we did it. also, today president bush signed an executive order granting me the title dark overlord of the american empire."
and then there has only been one democratic candidate that has been railing against this war loudly since it started: howard dean of vermont. he'll be getting my vote in the primary just so i can watch him make bush squeam during the debates. besides kerry of massachusetts, the rest of the imbeciles running for the donkey ticket make me actually think about keeping bush in office another 4 years.
steve told me about this guy at work that said something to effect: intellectuals aren't popular people. just look at our president's approval ratings.
but, hey, it doesn't matter. we got our one member of the "axis of evil"--that's good enough. nevermind that we haven't found any wmds or any facilities for making them or even saddam himself. and nevermind that n. korea has been processing spent rods from nuclear power plants that will be used to make the bomb. nevermind that the koreans getting the bomb will lead to an asian arms race where japan and even australia will be clamoring for some nuclear deterrents. we'll get our 35 cent gallons of gas, and the average american moron will be happy.
i don't have anything against the conservative ideology per se. i am against the cronyism and corruption that is rampant in both major parties. i am against the abuse of the american system of government for rummy and co to get their world empire. i am against the democrats for being giant pansies and not even trying to do anything about this when they had the opportunity.
someone needs to take the power back.
in political good news, the house has decided to overturn the fcc's decision to increase television station ownership from 35% to 45%. the senate is also looking to do the same.
good work boys. too bad you can only agree on something that won't really help the millions of uninsured children in america. or the veterns being denied medical assistance. or the thousands of illegal immigrants that are absorbing our resources. or the bigots that beat homosexuals, non-whites and/or women on a daily basis.
thanks for keeping clear channel from buying some tv stations. my life is so much better now.
it also looks like the gop lead effort to oust california gov. davis by recall is going to go through. over a million signatures were verified, paving the way for a special election within the next 90 days. the only good thing about this is that we may get our second predator star into a governor's mansion. that's right soon to join the ranks of jesse ventura, will--fingers crossed--be arnold schwarzenegger. before one could only dream of a world where the terminator kindergarten cop conan the barbarian/destroyer would be an elected official. in all honesty, i think it would be good to have governor arnold.
but mostly i'm just bitter at the entire establishment right now.
do not anger the hippie. he has much rage inside.
only 13 more years til i begin my presidential campaign.
