Today is the day that I take off my gloves and say what I have wanted to say for a long time, but haven’t because of some silly notion that I didn’t want to sink to the depths that other people have. I don’t care anymore. If you have delicate sensibilities, don’t read past this point. You might see something that will bother you, and I just wanted to say I warned you.
First of all, I have no respect for any of these politicians that say they believe that God created Adam and Eve and he created this world in seven days. If you are a politician that believes in the creationist theory, than you are either stupid, too stupid to hold office, or you are a liar, and you are lying to get stupid Christians that believe that to vote for you. In both cases, you are not qualified to hold political office. You should resign.
Anyone that believe that we are fighting them there so we won’t fight them here should also either go back to school and pay attention this time, or stop and think of what you are saying. Fighting them there had absolutely nothing to do with fighting them here. That entire line of reasoning is flawed. If they want to attack us here they can whether or not we fight them there. In fact, many people that want to attack us aren’t even “there”, they are somewhere else. That is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard anyone say. If you believe that, then you are stupid too. Sorry, but someone has to give you the message.
Bush and Cheney don’t give a goddamn shit about this country or anyone in it except the people that pay them. I’m not talking about the lousy salary they get for being in office. I’m talking about all the money that is given to them under the table from Halliburton, Blackwater and the Oil Companies and all the others making a fortune off the death and destruction going on in Iraq. I guarantee that Bush and Cheney have never cared about bringing freedom to the Iraqi people. If you believe that, you should get a check-up from the neck-up.
I believe that anyone that is blocking the impeachment of the President and the Vice-President should be charged for obstruction of justice. When it gets to the point when political interests outweigh moral interests, then these people should no longer be holding public office. There shouldn’t even be an argument about holding impeachment proceedings against these people. I am going to put my money where my mouth is, stay tuned. Meanwhile I will now paste an excerpt from a commenter (Sabresong) from my blog liberalpro:

“anonymous said... What I'd like someone to do is to verify, establish point blank, what crimes have been committed.”
“An excellent request. It's taken me some time to separate the proven crimes from the conspiracy theories, and I'm still working on it. I'll post it on my own blog at www.eledanthe.com/news once it's finished.
until then, the following list is taken directly from the proposed articles of impeachment, calling for the impeachment of G.W. Bush and Dick Cheney:
1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of over one hundred thousand Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.
2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.
3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.
4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.
5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.
6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnappings, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions of governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.

This article hits many nails on the head. Most of the politicians are bought and paid for. It all goes back to the money masters when they took over the American currency in 1913, the Federal Reserve. The New World Order is trying to kill America big time.

(1) The British East India Company was chartered in 1600. The address of the White House is 1600. It was the 2nd building in the area, the first being the Octagon House. Google it yourself.
(2) The American Flag was copied from the British East India company's flag of the time. The only difference was that Betsy put stars in the upper left blue shield, replacing the cross. The BEI flag had the cross. Same as Hawaii's state flag, but Hawaii has fewer stripes.
All the wars since then were financed by the same groups. Our brave veterans have won the wars but lost the battle. Even up to today. Disgusting, no? Sickens me to have discovered this. The British aren't the lap dogs, the US is. Under their financial control. Always has been.

The author clearly is suffering withdrawal symptoms. He's seeing, probably for the first time, the brutal reality of living in a nation where most of the citizens live in denial, and hypocrisy, rather than in truth and reality! Most Americans suffer from the delusion that they live in a "free" country, or even a "constitutional republic"! They believe in the "rule of law", yet as a nation the American people have never comitted themselves to any of these things. The U.S., has always run on pretense, and hypocrisy, not freedom, the constitution, or the rule of law! While many great men and women have struggled to make the truth, and the rule of law, realities in this country, so far, these goals remain unattained! Fully aware of this truth, Bush, and Cheney, therefore do, as they damn well please! They don't bother to uphold any of the political pretenses, most Americans are accustomed to. They know the U.S. public is hopelessly gullible, incapable of real independent thought, and devoid of political competence. Hence neither they, nor Congress, fear any consequences whatsoever, from their blatant treason and felonies!
Because of Bush and Cheney's crime spree however, many Americans are getting their first glimpse at what this country is really about! It aint' pretty, and can be quite staggering, when viewed for the first time, but at least it's real! Truth for most Americans, is like a cross for Dracula. Shunned, at all costs! Truth and reality unfortunately, is what this country has traditionally found so difficult, to deal with. Too many, choose to reside in the dream world based upon the national mythos, and meticulously maintained by the lying mass media. Americans are therefore quite adept at seeing things, yet pretending they don't exist. Most of the so-called "Conspiracy Theories" today, are true, yet it's more comforting to the majority of Americans, to just ignore them, or even laugh at them. Most will readily trade, a false sense of normalcy, for brutal realities, any day! This allows the public to look right at treason, and rampant corruption in the GOP, the Dems, the whitehouse and the media, yet pretend it ain't there. This is the major reason why, the U.S. has never managed to become, what it's was supposed to be. In fact, it's been more of a cruel caricature, of what it could have been. This of course has never prevented, and still doesn't deter, the typical mainstream American, from pretending otherwise! By opting for pretense, and hypocrisy, in their daily lives, Americans have been totally bamboozled, by the media, and crooked politicians like Bush, Cheney, and most of the current Congress! People prone to pretense, and hypcrisy, aren't inclined to actually fix anything. Hence the current madness will surely get even worse! Even when enough of the people in this country, finally realize that things need to be fixed, it's usually, too late! This has so far, has been a tragic theme, in the story of the American people!

I too, am tired of the, "Oh let's be nice and win over the other side strategy." Here in Greenville, SC we have a pretty vibrant anti-war group. (See greenvilleantiwarsociety.com) We have provided an anti-war presence on the corner of Washington and Church for over four years now and held ever larger events to commemorate each year of the war and each plateau of death as it occurs, including commemoration of the over 700,000 Iraqi deaths with a beautiful column of peace beads strung by volunteers from here and other states. Join us some Wednesday at 5:30pm at Church and Washington.

I agree with the post above, all excepting that there are a significant number of people actually awakening. What with the billions (some say trillions) of dollars spent on CIA, NSA etc Black Ops...the only way to believe we are a free people is to stay asleep. Most seem DESPERATE to ignore that which is right in front of our faces.

*Foolishness and Insanity Know No Political Ideology
Well the problem is that both sides have "moles" (people who are paid to spread confusion and dissent) and fanatical extremists; Our side has to deal with people who don't eat meat and who won't work with those who do....and the people who are extreme pacifist's to the point of absurdity. a.k.a. the people who advocate not standing up to legitimately defend themselves or others, etc...
Anyhoo, you are so right, the "right" must stop cow-towing/stop playing "nice" to their extremist whackjobs, but my question is this "when are we going to do the same?"
*and note, I was tempted to add a long list of caveats to this post, but that would have made it too lengthy and would have watered it down. People, use common sense when considering what I've said....Anyhow, like you said, it's time for the gloves to come off.
