You Da Bomb
Hey, gang, sorry I don't write more often, but life has got me by the short hairs, as I suspect it has got almost everyone that wasn't born with substantial means. Enough groveling, however. The tail is wagging the dog, and the dog in this fight is Cerberus. See, another carrier is headed for the shores of Iran. In Chicago I got to see some cable news, something I don't get at home because I don't have a TV (do however have a 52" computer monitor with an aftermarket card that displays DVDs quite ably, thanks... I'm not some kind of friggen monk). CNN and Fox are hammering away at the war drums, asking rhetorical questions like "Iran: Military Options" and "Will Tehran Back Down?" In other words, we are about to go to war with yet another country, and I think this time the Bushite loonies imagine they can win it from the air, no troops required. Probably got this idea from the Israelis. This astounds me beyond all astounding. I remember the first time I go my hands on a pair of sought-after teenage boobs. A young fellow full of hormones and piss and vinegar, ready to take on the world if only I didn't have a curfew and homework. The boobs, though. A lovely young lady of willing disposition and fantastic knockers. We collided (or words to that effect) in our lust, ambition, and confusion, and all was forgiven. The world was a happy place. It must be that our so-called leaders are anhedonists, incapable of experiencing such pleasures. They feel nothing. They're so bottled up the vintage has turned sour, and now all they can do is rage and fume and kill, kill, kill they young, promising folks that might otherwise be enjoying this world. They want only power, these old madmen. And then there are the Democrats. I leave the rest of this post to quoting my dear comrade Rich Procter, who speaks sooth better than I can: As I was reading this and other aticles... ...I got the same "punched in the gut" feeling I got when I realized that the Bushies were going to "go for it" in Iraq, no matter anyone said or did. They were going to do it just to watch the rubble bounce, and to hell with anyone who tried to stop them. The top article is an outstanding piece by Scott Ritter about the Bush/Cheney team gittin' ready to roll the dice big-time in Iran. Same plan as with Iraq: • Send press after hand-picked "insiders" (like 'Curveball") • Build "WE MUST ACT NOW!!!" to fever pitch. (create sense of inevitability, cemented with some new version of "Do you want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud?" • Press loves "War a-Brewin'" scenarios -- feed red meat accordingly. • Demand blank check from Congress. As Ritter rightly points out, the Iraq war is going to get blamed on Bush and the Republicans. They will make sure the inevitable cluster-fuck in Iran (don't get me started) gets blamed on the wimpy Democrats, who "had the power to stop this but didn't." Actually, this is no-lose for Bush-Cheney. Right now, they're fucked. If they invade Iran over the wimpy non-binding resolutions objections of Democrats, they can claim the "waffling" by the Dems prevented full and complete victory. And if the Dems, led by my hero Senator James Webb, stop these crazy assholes from blowing up the world, the Rethugs will blame the Dems for ever bad thing that happens in the middle east for 50 years. I've had it with this shit. No more. These cretins could fuck up a 2 car funeral, and you could spot them the hearse. I mean -- BOMB IRAN????????? With no ground support? A country that can cut off the Strait of Hormuz, and send oil to $400 a barrel over night? A country that has the power to cut the supply lines into our troops in Baghdad? (Our guys have 2 weeks of food and water, thanks for asking) Read. Forward. ACT Rich Procter P.s. If you think ‘he wouldn’t dare’...did you really think he commit the entire military to Iraq without being absolutely sure there were weapons there? Do you think it makes any difference to these psychos? ---- You said it, Rich. Holy cow. Recommend this article...
