I found this article in my flist and had to pass it on as a well written rant of TRUTH!

So there you have it. Bush shrugs and smirks and then commutes the easy soft-focus sit-on-your-ass-all-day-and-knit white-collar prison sentence of a hollow political lackey who, in turn, took a bullet for his sneering mafia thug of a boss, Dick Cheney, who in turn was complicit (along with lead flying monkey Karl Rove) in the appallingly illegal outing of a CIA operative, which itself was a tiny but particularly nasty link in the giant chain of lies and deceptions undertaken to lead our wary and tattered nation into an unwinnable impossible costly brutally violent war that will now last, if current estimates are correct, until the goddamn sun explodes.

You have to laugh. You have to laugh because if you do not laugh you will likely be overcome by a mad desire to stab yourself in the eye with a sharp feral cat and/or shoot yourself in the toe with a high-powered staple gun, over and over again, all while tearing out pages of the United States Constitution...

Wow.
To stab yourself with a feral cat is serious.
Phew, poor cat. Poor guy.

But I totally understand the desire, though.

I found that article funny; however, I was laughing at the author and not with him, which was probably not what he intended.

I'm no Bush supporter, but that author had a few too many bowls of Melodrama Flakes (fortified with extra run-on sentences and angst nuggets) for breakfast, methinks. The quote you posted actually was funny in the way it was intended to be, but I couldn't even finish the article. But I also hate politics, so.... ;)

It's only melodrama if it's not true. We all grieve in our own way.

Some people rant, like Randi Rhodes. Some people joke, like Stephanie Miller, some people do both at the same time, like this guy :)

That article made me slightly ill, but it was good reading. The Paris Hilton reference was brilliant.

So you want some stickers?

If super slick and high gloss is not a requirement, I can teach you to do it. I just wanted to make sure you were cool with it.

Is there somewhere online you stash your stuff that I'd be allowed to run willy-damn-nilly though to help you out?

Tag me back at my home blog or at slpjeff12 at yahoo dot com.

oh and you're in madison? I had an early internet crush there once upon a time. Actually I think she was in beloit. Potato/potahto. Anyhoo, I noticed your alias "fnord" as was wondering if'n you're an INWO player.

All of this most certainly does make me want to stab myself in the eye with a sharp feral cat. The entire Libby thing was just disgustingly overwrought with gleefully blatant lies and all of it was totally ignored by Bush. Which is *SO* apt for this entire administration.




By the way, hi. I added you.

Welcome aboard! (And yes, egads, the illegality of everything this administration does. I swear they commit at least one impeachable offense every day.)
