June 6, 2006

Democratic Representative John Murtha of Pennsylvania is still the embodiment of everything a United States Marine is supposed to be!  Representative Murtha received the John F. Kennedy Profiles in Courage Award May 22, 2006 for “the difficult and courageous decision of conscience he made in November, 2005, when he reversed his support for the Iraq war and called for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the conflict. Murtha’s distinguished service in the Marines and the Marine Corps Reserves, and his expertise on defense policy issues, had long made him an eminent voice on matters of military engagement. … his dissent also made him the target of withering political attacks and resulted in efforts by political opponents to discredit his Vietnam War decorations.”

“… the 'The 9/11 Story That Got Away' never made it into the paper.” It’s as obvious as the nose on your face, the Al Qaeda attack was George Bush’s gift from hell, it was the “modern day” Pearl Harbor that was needed to begin the march on world domination!  Anyone involved in this plan of madness was not about to give it up by warning the American people.  For those radicals who believe the end justifies the means, the means becomes hell on earth for a whole lot of innocent human beings.

I suppose for some in this country, it’s alright to lie and wage a preemptive unnecessary war that kills thousands of innocent people as well as over 2400 American soldiers, as long as you’re “religious”!  "I'm not sure of anything he's done, but I like that he's religious — that's really important." May God help us all!!!

In a fog again, George Bush should know that banning gay marriage doesn’t do a thing to “protect marriage” and we are all aware that his posturing is another limp attempt to raise his poll numbers!  Heterosexuals in this country jump in and out of adultery and marriage faster than one can say Jiminy Cricket and there are some Repuglicans in high places who know a whole helluva lot about that!  “Marriage Protection Act,” my behind, it’s just another self preservation guise, so he can continue his path of madness!  It’s past time to wake up, Bush is annihilating the Constitution and sooner or later he will eliminate everyone’s rights, even those who willingly say, yes sir, I have nothing to hide, and now just how far do you want me to bend over before you kick me in the rear!

You can get a peek at the future of the United States of America if Bill Kristol has anything to do with it!!! "Maybe we should have Supreme Leader Bush. I kind of like the sound of that."

More proof that “once a liar always a liar” is a more appropriate slogan for that Bush support group, aka known as FOX NEWS and Bill O’Reilly in particular!  Seems O’Reilly, in an all out effort to lessen the “Haditha” tragedy, made some slanderous remarks “maligning” American troops during WWII that in the end were completely wrong!  Either O’Reilly is just plain dumb and shouldn’t be in a position attempting to sway opinion, or he’s an outright liar who shouldn’t be in a position attempting to sway opinion!

The moron and his administration have outdone themselves this time!  In a not so veiled attempt to retaliate at Democratic strongholds, George Bush is wreaking his brand of revenge by cutting DHS funding!  Making you vulnerable for another terrorist attack is more expedient than waiting for hurricanes and global warming to do you in!  “Sorry, New York.  The goal of the Department of Homeland Security is to protect our real national icons.  Following is a partial roster of landmarks on the evildoers' hit list that need our full attention...and the amount allocated to protect them according to the latest DHS "Freedom Budget:" Alexandria, Indiana: The World's Largest Ball of Paint ($12 million). Niland, California: Salvation Mountain ($16 million). Alamo Heights, Texas: Barney Smith's Toilet Seat  Art Museum ($10 million). Dedham, Massachusetts: The Museum of Bad Art ($31 million). Key West, Florida: The Chicken Store ($7.5 million). Alliance, Nebraska: Carhenge ($25 million). And Soap Lake, Washington: The Giant Lava Lamp ($143 million). Thank you, Secretary Chertoff, for seeing through the elitist city-slicker spin, and allocating America's resources where they'll protect our heritage.  Nay...our legacy.”

" … the Family Research Council, is planning to ask lawmakers to take 'a marriage protection pledge' ..." Would the politicians who sign the “marriage protection pledge” be bound to protect their current marriage???  We all know for some lawmakers this would be impossible!  Does this pledge include an addendum guaranteeing no extramarital affairs?  For some lawmakers this would also be impossible.  Does this pledge include a promise not to participate in bisexuality or homosexuality?  Again for some lawmakers this is impossible!  What’s that business about signing an agreement you have no intention of keeping?  In the Catholic Church it’s grounds for annulment; no matter how long you’ve been married!!!!  Ahh, complications before it even begins!!!!
