Well judging from many of my posts, i'm 1st in line on the ferry to "gitmo". I'd laugh but a fellow activist informed me not too long ago of a large electrical plant in Pasadena that has large penned in areas where the barbed wire slants inward as to keep people in rather than outward to keep trespassers out, which only reminded me of Iran/Contra and Ollie North's plan to intern dissidents that the right wing Adminstration declares enemies of the state for their opposition to foreign wars. THIS is why I rail so hard and so offensively. To some it's merely about partisanship. To me, it's about the essense of freedom and American democracy itself. And that is why i choose not to trust and give the benefit of the doubt. After all these are the very same people behind Watergate and behind Iran/Contra. Have they earned my trust by slapping a flight suit on their canidate and wrapping themselves all over 9/11 and the flag while at the same time protecting the Saudi'& having the most secretive government in memory?

Have they earned my trust by misleading newspapers across the country this week?

Bob Bolerjack, editorial page editor at the Herald in Everett, Wash., said his paper had been "duped."

"I won't second-guess a layman, but someone inside our business would understand that you don't do that, that it isn't right," he said, adding that the paper "wants to present the thoughts of folks that are expressed in their own words, not the words of others."
"So WHAT DID YOU EXPECT HIM TO SAY?? HE'S PART OF THE "LIBERAL MEDIA" i'm sure i'll hear next.


By overstating WMD's to launch a plan that was in place LONG before 9/11? "Project of a New American Century" Anyone??? By declaring that Iraq posed an IMMENENT threat??

"Oh but Democrats made statements supporting WMD claims! So bloody what???" You think I trust every Democrat as well?? Regardless though it was THIS administration that linked Iraq to 9/11. It was THIS administration that said Iraq was an IMMINENT threat that had to be stopped before theyv completed their dreaded bombs that would destroy us.

Frankly i've had enough bullshit and subsequent spin.

Here. Britney Spears. Enjoy.
