There is more than one-way to march on Washington. MoveOn.org is sponsoring a virtual march on Washington on February 1st...This march will be made in the form of phone calls, emails and faxes, to send one million direct contacts to member of Congress to stop the escalation...everyone can take part in this march. If, for one day, no one in Congress received any other messages from constituents except a call to stop Bush's escalation in Iraq, we can be louder and clearer than any mass rally. You can take part here. I have signed up.
Winnipeg Herald Manitoba Canada January 17, 2007 The flood of American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada has intensified in the past week, sparking calls for increased patrols to stop the illegal immigration. The actions of President Bush are prompting the exodus among left-leaning citizens who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray, and agree with Bill O'Reilly. Canadian border farmers say it's not uncommon to see dozens of sociology professors, animal-rights activists and Unitarians crossing their fields at night. "I went out to milk the cows the other day, and there was a Hollywood producer huddled in the barn," said Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield, whose acreage borders North Dakota. The producer was cold, exhausted and hungry. "He asked me if I could spare a latte and some free-range chicken. When I said I didn't have any, he left. Didn't even get a chance to show him my screenplay, eh?" In an effort to stop the illegal aliens, Greenfield erected higher fences, but the liberals scaled them. So he tried installing speakers that blare Rush Limbaugh across the fields. "Not real effective," he said. "The liberals still got through, and Rush annoyed the cows so much they wouldn't give milk." Officials are particularly concerned about smugglers who meet liberals near the Canadian border, pack them into Volvo station wagons, drive them across the border and leave them to fend for themselves. "A lot of these people are not prepared for rugged conditions," an Ontario border patrolman said. "I found one carload without a drop of drinking water. They did have a nice little Napa Valley cabernet, though." When liberals are caught, they're sent back across the border, often wailing loudly that they fear retribution from conservatives. Rumors have been circulating about the Bush administration establishing re-education camps in which liberals will be forced to drink domestic beer and watch NASCAR races. In recent days, liberals have turned to sometimes ingenious ways of crossing the border. Some have taken to posing as senior citizens on bus trips to buy cheap Canadian prescription drugs. After catching a half dozen young vegans disguised in powdered wigs, Canadian immigration authorities began stopping buses and quizzing the supposed senior-citizen passengers on Perry Como and Rosemary Clooney hits to prove they were alive in the '50s. "If they can't identify the accordion player on The Lawrence Welk Show, we get suspicious about their age," an official said.Canadian citizens have complained that the illegal immigrants are creating an organic-broccoli shortage and renting all the good Susan Sarandon movies. "I feel sorry for American liberals, but the Canadian economy just can't support them," an Ottawa resident said. "How many art-history majors does one country need?" In an effort to ease tensions between the United States and Canada, Vice President Dick Cheney met with the Canadian ambassador and pledged that the administration would take steps to reassure liberals, a source close to Cheney said. "We're going to have some Peter, Paul & Mary concerts. And we might put some endangered species on postage stamps. The President is determined to reach out," he said.
Carville should have company from a like-mind sharing the same list...sucking the life out. I vant to drink yer blood!
Only the Right Wing spin machines could turn Barbara Boxer's comments about accountability in Iraq into a chance to attack her feminism.
The best commentary I've seen on this sad situation comes from Elijah Emily Nella:
"Welcome to the fourth wave of feminism: Republican Feminism. If you didn't understand Post-Feminism, your head's going to spin around this one . This New Wave is gaining popularity and media attention Susan B. Anthony would never have dreamt about. This feminism has Rush Limbaugh on it's side". . . (continue reading)
What more does one need to say?We have the captain of the Titanic heading our nation straight into the iceberg of reality.Several years ago he declared major military combat operations over in Iraq. Since that time hundreds and hundreds of GIs have died. Only a relatively small number died up until Bush's "Mission Accomplished" PR stunt.Now, we are sailing nearer the iceberg of destruction, as our captain pathologically "stays the course" of disaster.Would any major corporation in America hire this psychiatrically impaired fool to be their CEO?Would any of the corporate media conglomerates that continue to support his psychotic and destructive policies let Bush run their media empires?Of course not. They know that the guy is as dangerous as a wolf on LSD -- and that he is strategically disabled. But they need him for tax breaks, regulatory relief, and business favors.So they cut him some slack and let American GIs and Iraqis needlessly die because of their greed.
It's naive to think that we as Christians can tell the Iraqis how to live, therefore suicidal for the United States to stay in Iraq. We can't do anything more there. We don't know who the next Saddam will be but we do know he will be either a Shia or Sunni after they fight it out. Either way it's going to be a dictatorship with cruelty and brutality. It's despicable that Bush's lies created this mess. I'm tired of his fuckin' war!
