We just had the advisor for a Saudi Prince on CNN saying "evildoers". He went out of his way to say it.
We've got Bush praying for Paul Johnson's family. Good job. That'll do a lot.
We also have Bush asking God to bless Paul Johnson. Was that before, or after he lost his head? Odd God.
Lockheed Martin coming out and saying that they're deeply saddened by Paul Johnson's death. Yes, this from the leading war making machine in America. Very upset at a death. I'm sure they'll get a few more million to make a new weapon to avenge his death too.
Earlier we had Putin talking about a massive attack after 9/11 by Iraq. With what?
I hope Bush gets that mental health test going soon. I need it, and I hope they put me away, because I just can't take the reality in which we live anymore.
Corporations run everything. Everything in existence, including existence itself, is a commodity.
Nationalism. Patriotism.
Then you have the good ol' standby's of poverty, homelessness, and hunger.
Unending wars.
Life is cheap. People in power know that.
Lockheed Martin; they're funny.

1. I hear ya AG, but..... |

Nationalism and patriotism are not the same as corporatism. Just when the corporations run the government and usurp (in) the names of nationalism and patriotism.
Lockheed Martin;, they're murderers and life preservers. Yin and Yang rolled into one.

At the end of his evildoer soundbyte at the airport i waiting for "Now watch this drive". Everytime he speaks now i mentally add to the end of his sentences, or what passes for sentences. Anyhow, I thought after seeing the horror of 911 that i really couldnt be sickened anymore but i think these bastards have figured out that we can't tolerate beheadings. At least i can't and it makes me all the more angry at the chimp. He's so fucking arrogant and stupid it's amazing, nevermind how dangerous it is. If anybody on his side thinks that things like this will rally us around him they are fing nuts.

6. I know what you mean... |

the monster is starting to get too big to fight anymore. At least it seems that way. I won't give up yet though.
Everytime I think it can't get any worse, it does. The evil committed by those in power is bad enough. That it is heartily condoned by a majority of Americans is unbearable.

7. It's Not Any Better in Missouri |

We have the News, too. And it is all just depressing as hell.
I wish I could just turn off the world right now and go do my own thing. Forget about all of this junk for a while.
But each nite I go home and turn on the news and watch it all the way through the Lehrer Report.

exploded in the lounge a little while ago. I never get many responses but I think it might have been a little scary. I heard the Evil Doer comment and it came right after I was thinking how nice it was to hear calm, soft intelligent language, NOT content(I was too stunned by the soft pretty, words), just words then he said Evil Doer and my head exploded again.
BTW, do not wish to be found insane. These days you are likely to end up in a church for your mental health care.
