Black Helicopters....

I sent an E-mail to the White House today, and immediately found myself very nervous. Who knows what legnths they will go to to supress opposition? Prior to the election, i had a few conversations with a lady who was indoctrinated into a psychotic political belief system by her father. She felt that she couldnt vote for John Kerry because the ?democrats? were building massive concentration camps for political dissenters. Someone may be planning such a thing somewhere, but i seriously doubt Mr. Kerry ever had such a thing in mind. Lets see... who has said that the Geneva Convention is quaint? Who created the situation at Abu Gharaib, and the ongoing and shamefull situation at Guantanamo Bay,Cuba?
I have been embarresed and shamed by my excercising the option of ignoring the news for the last couple days. The people to whom the news is happening to do not have the option of turning it off. The displaced citizens of Falluja, the widows, the orphans, the maimed children, the tortured, the massive amounts of people being subject to our imported famine, the amputees...they dont have the option of changing the channel, of turning up the heat, closing the blinds and climbing under a pile of blankets with a handfull of Little Debby's and a tall cold glass of milk.
It was heartening to see a story in today's Washington Post talking about the blog

I am ashamed to see no coverage of the massive anti-war protests happening at college campuses all across the country. Oh yea, thats right, there are no protests to speak of.. I am even more ashamed....
But hey, its all about Paris Hilton, Football, and..."reality television".. isnt that what's important after all?
Oh yea, great story in yesterdays NYT about the bloodthirsty Texans' about to get slapped down again by the Supreme Court.


It is unfortunate that truth is such a rare and precious commodity today.

Raed in Jordan

Seperating the wheat from the chaff....

I feel like i am living in bizarro world. I am sure nothing makes the Bush administration happier than to have the media debating furiously their ridiculous funding for their backward thinking abstinence only sex education agenda. (Bush is about to light the White House Christmas tree... i hope there isnt an electrical short that barbecue's him on national TV, that would be a tragic waste of our energy resources. I am hoping for a lightning bolt to shoot out of the heavens) Very odd, the tree seems to be leaning to the right... It must be a sign from God that He supports the rape of our land for the further enrichment of the moneychangers who have assumed control of "our" government.
I found it ironic that today Bush stated that the elections will proceed in Iraq according to his schedule. I thought the Iraqi governing council was running the show over there. (thats irony, i know better...damn i am getting sick of irony)
So, America will hold a fake election, and appoint their chosen ruler to sign the oil contracts and do "our" bidding. The only suprise here is that we the people seem to forget how it has always worked out when we try and prop up a US controlled puppet government overseas. Think brutal butcher Agusto Pinochet of Chile, or even more apt, the ousted US tool, wish i could think of his name... the "Shah of Iran" who the Iranian people tossed out on his ass 25 years ago.
More to come, in the meantime i am going to try to figure out how birthcontrol pills and condom use is murder and using condoms leads to the spread of AIDS, and how masturbation leads to pregnancy outside of the bonds of wedlock.
