From HuffPo: Veteran's Day Message to Karl Rove:
Take Your Terror Scares and Shove Them Up Your Ass! By Brent Budowsky.

November 11, 2006

I was honored to spend most of Veteran's Day at the Vietnam Memorial with a rally and ceremony honoring heroes of America from every branch of the service, and their families, immediate and extended.

On their behalf, talking to leaders of veterans groups and a large number of veterans, one message I heard often was the need for mandatory coverage and adequate financing of veterans health care programs through the Veterans Administration.

I did write a Veterans Day memo this morning
to one of the highest ranking Democrats in the
Senate and will reiterate this and others points
very soon.

What follows is a point that hit me when I returned home, and within 15 seconds Fox News had a banner headline: Holiday Terror Horror! Presumably Osama Bin Laden will have a bomb under our holiday tree and we should, again, be afraid.

Here is my reaction to Fox, to Rove, to Bush, to Cheney and anyone else who has been peddling the politics of fear: kiss my ass.

---------------------------------------------

Kiss my ass, too while your at it, Karl. I'm not scared of you, Fox, Bush, Cheney, or any of you clowns. And guess what, a lot of other people aren't scared either. The people have spoken Karl, and your fearmongering doesn't work as well as it once did.
