For God’s sake, where is Eliot Ness when you need him? Who in this Bush Justice Department is brave enough to investigate the entire Repuglican Party, who is brave enough to say we’ve had enough of organized crime posing as a political party? Repuglican Senators and Representatives alike are kissing the ring of Don Bush, and it's way past time to put a stop to the whole rotten bunch, it’s time to reclaim America in the name of the people, if indeed Freedom and Democracy are to survive from sea to shining sea!

In considering the latest smear campaign attempting to shift the “blame” for the horror of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, I was struck with knowing this time those who seek to protect Herr Bush will not completely succeed, primarily because we were all witness to the fact that the cavalry didn’t come until it became obvious George Bush was in trouble!! They can say this was made up and that was made up, but for once there were some in the media who were so overcome with the horror, that mainstream corporate media finally revealed the truth to the public. Note to CNN, your ratings went up when you found the backbone via Anderson Cooper et al. to tell Americans the truth. Don’t screw it up now, via Zahn and Blitzer, if you really want to be “The Most Trusted Name in News”!!!

Frankly, I question everything that Laura Bush does and most especially when it’s being said, “Mrs. Bush sought to be on the program because she shares the same principles that the producers hold”! I question how anyone who would marry George W. Bush could have “principles”!!!

Hmm, George’s red face suggests a myriad of notions, sunburn due to prolonged vacation, sunburned during photo-ops to look presidential? Red-faced embarrassment over not responding to Hurricane Katrina resulting in American lives lost---nah, it takes something more personal to embarrass Herr Bush! I’ve got it, maybe, just maybe, he’s red-faced due to over-indulgence, hmm, certainly leaves one wondering????

Though it won’t hurt my feelings to see Bill Frist frog-marched off to jail for insider trading, or lying to the feds, or whatever they can find to prosecute, I am of the notion, that Mr.,Dr.,Sen. Frist bucked the Bush administration one time too many and this is what happens when you mess with George Bush! He’ll get you 6 ways to Sunday as soon as he can, and he’ll do it with the vengeance of a spoiled brat rich kid who thinks the world is his oyster and the people in it are to serve at his pleasure!!! The moron is impossible, he is mean and vindictive, he is a bully of the highest degree, he is used to getting his way and God help anyone who gets out in front of him!!! In George Bush’s twisted mind, he is the Supreme Being and every one else better take note!

Gag me with a silver medal---General Richard Myers' words to Donald “doddering” Rumsfeld during Myers' farewell news conference---“Mr. Secretary, I would like to thank you for your service and your dedicated leadership. I treasure the candid and professional relationship that we've had over these years and I value the opportunity to come into this room and stand beside you and try to tell the American people and the international community about their military, about our operations, and about the war on terrorism. It's been a real honor, sir.” It’s called suck up right on down to the very last breath, kiss ass, and puulease don’t mess with my retirement!

One last hurrah from General Richard Myers---“MYERS: The enemy knows very clearly they cannot defeat us militarily.” Well, Dick, they seem to be doing a hell of a job tactically! Over 2000 American soldiers dead, not to mention untold thousands of innocent Iraqis, and you have the nerve to stand up and say “they cannot defeat us militarily”? It’s about time you became an American soldier and stand up for the troops under your command and stop being a yes man to a doddering fool who has long since lost it, and a moron who sought revenge and oil for personal gain. You, sir, sent the troops into battle knowing they didn’t have the proper equipment, knowing they didn’t have the force necessary, knowing there wasn’t a plan for the peace or a plan for withdrawal. Yours was to forsake the men and women under your command, to turn a blind eye to what was really going on behind closed doors, to allow this civilian cabal to order up torture and abuse and then blame the grunts way down the chain of command that were only following orders from above. Give me a break, the day you said yes sir to Donald Rumsfeld and George Bush and you didn’t stand behind General Shinseki’s projections and support him was the day you became the dick you are today!!

Every dang one of these so-called preachers should have their tax-free status removed post-haste---they’re nothing more than a bunch of lobbyists who won’t be satisfied unless and until the entire country is on bended knee before them! I’m sick and tired of sleazy con men who profess to be men of God and to know exactly what God wants! Another place, another time, and these guys who claim to talk to God would be taken away to the loony bin and placed in a padded cell where they belong!! It’s reached a point of mass hysterical madness in America, these guys stand for all the founding fathers came to America to escape!! They’re in our bedrooms, in our closets, and poking their noses into every private place we have, they want control of our very existence and if allowed to continue, they’ll be burning “sinners” at the stake in every sports arena in America! We are witness to an American style Taliban and all the Hallelujahs, hellfire and damnation that comes with it, and it scares the bejezzus out of me! The best place to start defeating radical extremists is right here at home!
