I'LL HAVE A SIDE OF KARMA WITH THAT

How about the Heartland of America?

The very reason they continue to grip America and our Government in such a stranglehold is their constant mantra-like recital of "gotta keep the evildoers, the terrorists away from our borders."

What utter hogwash! According to the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism, since 1968 across the entire planet terrorists have been responsible for the deaths of 35,593 persons, while injuring less than 88,300.

So, the Bush Fascists are responsible for causing the deaths of human beings at a rate of 78,000 per year, to save us from a threat that might kill 930 people per year - worldwide. And they are maiming 165,833 people annually to prevent a possible 2,323 serious injuries per annum.

Gee, I can kind of see where that makes sense. Don't you?

Then there's the Iraqi civil war that the RoveBush Regime insists does not exist. Why, then, have European news services been reporting it for six months?

And now American reporters have finally begun to inquire about the possibility of a civil war. Is that the reason, despite continual denials by Rumsfeld, various generals, et al, the U.S. Forces in Iraq deemed it necessary to launch the most massive all-out air strike in months just today (March 16, 2006)?

Instead of simply being diligent and cautious, and reacting like a true leader, at a normal level of cost to the taxpayer, fiscally off-the-wall King George XLIII has burned up hundreds of billions of dollars in his insatiable quest to lighten gravity's load. I guess there just weren't enough inmates on death rows in Texas prisons.

These kill-crazy warmongers and their Big Bizness cronies have absolutely no intention of stopping this madness. Why should any of them care who dies, or how many - ain't none o'them their kids or relatives. And anyone who actually believes they want anything to do with "democracy" or a "republic" needs to put that bottle of Old No. 7 down and start thinking with a clearer head than Bush and most Republican "leaders."

While I'm on the subject of leaders, you Congressional and Senatorial Democrats really fried my chicken legs too long. I can't believe you left Russ Feingold swinging out there in the breeze like a pennant atop Wrigley Field during a prevailing Canadian Northeast wind!

Do something about King George XLIII, already! What does the schmuck have to do, commit murder on live television before you move against him?

Sure, censure is not Impeachment, but look what the GOP did to Bill Clinton just for being lonely. There isn't a person with access to a communications satellite or the Internet who doesn't know that George W. Bush has no business sitting in the Oval Office - why aren't you doing something about it?

I can't disagree with Feingold's assertion that Democrats "run and hide" rather than face up to this White House. The complete non-response was appalling, and after Monday's performance I am ashamed to be a registered Democrat.

What's going to change if you do nothing?

And, with the exception of Lou Dobbs, you putzes in the mainstream media are letting the Fascist takeover succeed.

Where is Edward R. Murrow now that we need him?
