Bush Birthday Haiku
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the same folks who brought us Republican Survivor, are sponsoring a haiku contest to celebrate Bush's upcoming birthday. Here are my entries.
Dubya's Big Birthday
My gift to the Resident?
What Dick told Leahy
Hey George W
I have birthday gift for you
Fleas in Saddam's beard
May I bring a guest
to the Bush birthday party?
His name's Michael Moore
Mr. President?

LET FREEDOM REIGN?
Mileah made a great observation on her Whistling Lips Blog about that note Condi Rice gave Bush yesterday, where he wrote, "let freedom reign" at the bottom of it.
Seems Bush can't quite get his cliches straight. I believe the phrase is, "let freedom ring," based on an old song.
To be fair to Bush, there is a song called, "Let Freedom Reign," which he may have intentionally quoted.
In fact, in looking at the lyrics I can see some of his policies have indeed been set to music:
(source: the Hated & Proud Neo Nazi website http://www.panzerfaust.com/lyrics/hnp.shtml)
HATED AND PROUD "Let Freedom Reign"
RED SKIN
You say that you’re proud to be working class,
and that we’ve all got to rise above
But you don’t care about your people’s heritage,
you put down the land we love
You run around in boots and braces
and you preach our rhetoric
Your mind is filled with propaganda,
full of leftist politics
The simple truth that you can’t see
is that you’ve got no right to claim being a skin
‘Cause your pride is somewhere else
not in the land you were brought up in
(chorus)
If you’re a red skin you’re red scum
For all of you, your time will come
If you’re a red skin you’re red scum
You’re our public enemy… number one
You go to all the socialist rallies,
arm in arm with the students and the queers
Living in your dream world
thinking that you’re gonna make a change
But the general public sees through you
They see how foolish you are
You can preach and demonstrate your shit
but it’s never gonna go far
We’ll never let our land be like China
Government rule with no human rights
You’re all filthy fucking traitors,
and all of you should be shot on sight
(chorus)
Drive all the red skins out of the scene
Because they don’t have a clue what being a true skin means
Take pride in yourself and pride in your land
Support your own nation don’t support the red hand
(chorus)

Fahrenheit 911 Message Boards
Now that I've read some of the right-wing's take on the movie, I may have to take a new look at my political leanings. Here are some gems I found on AOL's message board.
"Micheal Moore is a fat slob profiting from death... oh i thought he condemed that"
(you ask) how is he (Moore) a communist??????? he is against everything that made this country what it is!!! if it was not for people standing up with "GUNS" and fighting for this country you wouldnt have the right to spew out all of the [exp. del.] ! you should do the world a favor and shoot yourself with an illegalloy owned gun!
It will never compare to a real movie like "The Passion" because Moore is not a real person. There is no way a lier like him can be a Christian.
Who cars about this, its not true, not good acting and poor script
I'm tired of fat, lazy, mouthy, opinionated a**holes, who think they know a better way to run the country. How about supporting the military, our President, and the firefighters and police officers who protect you every second of the day. Face it, if us meateaters weren't out there, you treehuggers would have been extinct a long time ago. Grow up, stop being a booger eater, get off your dead A** and stand behind this great country.
signed a veteran and career firefighter/paramedic
Would that be the democrat liars like Kerry that want .50+ gas tax? spend and tax and tax and spend democrats? I'm paying 84% of what I make now for democrat scum, now, to waste. I'll not give a penny more! You vote for them, you pay for MY share of the tax increase they vote for. I'm sure you can afford them, I cannot!!!!
We are at war. It was declared on 9-11-01. Just as war was declared on 12-7-41. To show such utter disrespect and dishonor for one's country, not just its president, is treason beyond any treacherous treason ever commited against our country, and it should be punished, rather than elevated to such a level. Moore is like an animal who is eating away at himself, rather than his enemies, the real threats. Only animals know better than to do that, unless they're caught in a trap they cannot get out of without knawing out of it. This is the Michael Moore we should all know- the animal caught in his own media trap, his own hell, trying to knaw his way out, using a "documentary of truth" as his teeth. I would think the only humane thing to do to this person is to send him to Iraq, set him down on the runway at Baghdad Intl. Airport, and tell him to start knawing...and running.
Anybody that would watch or even talk about Comrade Moores Movie should be deported, The dude is so ugly he makes puke look good We should be filming those that enter the theaters & when the movie is over put them on busses to the Airport with a one way passport

Dick Cheney: "Go Fuck Yourself"
While it's been years since I actually said "go fuck yourself" to anyone's face, I admit that profanity, including the word "fuck," has a comfortable place in my vocabulary.
But I don't use profanity when I am at work.
When the Bush administration promised to restore integrity to the White House, and used millions of dollars donated by Christian Fundamentalist cults to get elected, they held themselves up as "Christians doing God's work."
Appointed President George W. Bush had made his vow to "change the tone in Washington" a central part of his 2000 campaign, calling bipartisan cooperation "the challenge of our moment."
He said, "Our nation must rise above a house divided," in his victory speech in December 2000. "I know America wants reconciliation and unity. I know Americans want progress. And we will seize this moment and deliver."
Indeed.
Now that Cheney has whipped off his gossamer veil of Christianity and told Senator Patrick Leahy to go fuck himself during a Senate group photo session, one might think the Christian Fundies would have their undies in a bunch.
Nope.
Seems the religious right can understand the pressure Cheney has been under.
His company Halliburton (and it is *his* company since they still pay him a huge annual salary) has been a thorn in his side since the Iraqi invasion. Seems a good company like Halliburton can't get $10 billion or so in no-bid, secret contracts without pests like Leahy wanting Dick to be more accountable.
When the Senate still uses archaic phrases like, "the chair recognizes the gentleman from Kentucky" and "the honorable Senator from New York's time is up," is that really a place where the presiding officer of the chamber should be telling his colleagues to go fuck themselves?
Cheney said to Fox News of the incident, "I think that a lot of my colleagues felt that what I had said badly needed to be said, that it was long overdue."
I think if you plan to boast about being a good Christian, and make that an elemental part of your candidacy, you might want to skip telling ranking members of the Senate to go fuck themselves.
I am neither a Senator nor a self-professed "good Christian," but even if I had the chance to tell Cheney to go fuck himself to his face, I wouldn't.
It's just not polite.

Handing Over Sovereignty to Iraq
Bush takes credit for bringing down the Saddam Hussein regime in Iraq, and Dick Cheney insisted the Americans would be greeted in Iraq as liberators.
I think it only proper that Bush and Dick present themselves in Iraq as sovereignty is handed back to the Iraqis.
I'd like to see them standing on a podium together in Baghdad, ready to shake hands with Iraq's new President Whatzisname and Prime Minister Whoozziz.
They insist the world is a safer place now that Saddam is gone. Let them prove it to us by personally showing us how safe Iraq has become now that it's a democracy.

Fahrenheit 911
It's hard to put into words how deeply this movie moved me, but I will say it was the most meaningful political documentary I have ever seen.
Being in Texas, one might think F-911 would receive a tepid response on opening day, but the 1:10 p.m. matinee was sold out when I arrived 40 minutes early to buy tickets.
The cashier said the first screening had already sold out earlier in the week. So had the 7:10 screening tonight, but she did say she had a few tickets left for the 4:10 and the 10:10 screenings later today.
Anna and I were not to be discouraged.
We had met at the theater after braving a driving rainstorm, so strong it rained sideways, blew her umbrella inside out and downed several huge tree limbs on my block. We both got soaked to the skin trying to enter the mall.
Still, the showing was filled to 95 percent capacity, so we used some bogus tickets we bought for another movie to gain entry behind the velvet ropes, then we scampered to the ladies room, doubled back and snuck into the packed theater that was screening F-911.
From the opening scenes to the final credits, I fought back tears of sadness, outrage, fear and hatred. So did many seated around us.
I saw Michael Moore's last documentary, "Bowling for Columbine," and while I agreed with his premise, I must admit I found the movie too filled with cheap shots and easy setups, making for a sort of ham-handed, overly editorialized film I did not find particularly compelling.
This film, however, went light on Moore's trademark "gotcha" scenes and instead let the audience watch the film's antagonists do their own talking. The audience was left to draw their own conclusions.
The only gratuitously silly scene was Moore riding around the Capitol in an ice cream truck, reading the Patriot Act over a loudspeaker to members of Congress, who had apparently approved the Act before reading it.
For the millions of us who collect daily anecdotal evidence that condemns the Bush administration, this film offers a neat package of Bush and his administration's myriad acts of treachery, their cavalier attitudes and their outright filthy lies that don't border on treason- they are treason.
Moore uses facts, gleaned from documents, from speeches and from other irrefutable sources to indict Bush and his administration.
They have lied.
They do serve special interests that are not only un-American, they are the interests of foreign countries, like Saudi Arabia. Yes, Bush has favored Saudi Arabia over America in many cases, and this film offers proof.
It is illegal in this nation to call for a president's assassination. Though that sort of anarchistic statement probably should remain illegal in spite of the First Amendment, this movie might inspire many to do just that.
But let's not encourage anyone to kill Bush. Enough people have died because of him.
Let's just vote him out in a landslide, and let him be banished into the life of shame and disgrace he's brought upon himself.
If you disliked Bush before seeing this movie, you'll leave the theater hating him.
But hate is wasted on a person of such stupidity and worthlessness.
Please, see the movie, then channel your anger and hatred toward removing this malignant, malevolent administration.
Any American who still has a soul should see it as soon as possible. Even those who support the Bush administration should see it, so they can arm themselves against what will be an onslaught of demands for them to justify their support of this contemptible band of traitors.
I bought tickets for the 10:10 showing tonight.
Some of it was too intense to wrap my brain around the first time.
See it and tell us what you thought.

Bill Clinton on Larry King Live
Anna and I watched President Clinton on Larry King's show Thursday night and Anna said, during a commercial, "Isn't it nice to hear a president using correct grammar and proper pronunciation to discuss world events eloquently, without stammering or pausing or having trouble with words containing more than two syllables?"
When one compares Clinton to Bush, it's just a damn shame we are currently under the control of this moronic religious fanatic whose only loyalty is to the special interests who stuck him in the Oval Office as a hapless puppet to do their bidding.
God, I miss Bill Clinton.
We never knew how good things were in America until he left office and this idiotic bastard took over.
How much longer? Oh, the humanity.

Jack Ryan: A Republican Whose Family Values You Can Trust
(credit AMERICABlog for pertinent details)
Jack Ryan is running for a seat in the Senate as a Republican from Illinois. His website quote:
"The breakdown of the family over the past 35 years is one of the root causes of some of our
society's most intractable social problems--criminal activity, illegitimacy, and the cyclical nature of poverty. As an elected leader, my interest will be in promoting laws and educating people about the fundamental importance of the traditional family unit as the nucleus of our society."
Jack has been heartily endorsed by several GOP luminaries, the most notable being Dick Cheney who even emerged from his bunker at an undisclosed location to raise money for Ryan's race for Senate.
Jack's former wife, actress Jeri Ryan, stated in her divorce petition that she wanted out of the marriage because Jack kept dragging her to sex clubs in New York, New Orleans, Paris and elsewhere, wanting her to engage in sex in front of spectators and in sadomasochistic rituals involving cages and whips. In her statement, she said her ex husband told her that her crying while in the sex clubs "was a real turn off for him."
You think fellow Republicans would back away from this sadistic pervert, but they defend him for his behavior because it occurred "within the confines of his normal, heterosexual marriage."
Noted right-wing, antifeminist Phyllis Schlafly said, "she still supports Ryan because the charges are unproven and were made during a custody fight. 'Sure they're disturbing. They're unpleasant,' said Schlafly. 'But considering where they're coming from, I would wait for the proof before judging him.'
Jack Ryan has admitted his ex wife's allegations are factual, and in fact he made no effort to keep the divorce papers that contained the allegations sealed. He must be a mighty secure guy to let news like this get out without a fight.
So let's get this straight.
If you are a heterosexual, married candidate for the United States Senate, you can take your wife and the mother of your child to S&M sex clubs all over the world and demand she let you fuck her and use a whip on her, in a cage or on a bare mattress in an open cubicle, while strangers watch.
Conservative Republican Pundit Robert Novak said of Ryan's actions: "Jack Ryan, unlike Bill Clinton, did not commit adultery and did not lie."
Ryan said in his own defense, "The worst that can be said is I propositioned my wife in an inappropriate place. We had people elected to office who have done things that are much worse than that."
So, if I try to marry my girlfriend so we can legally engage in plain old fashioned, non-S&M lesbian intimacy in the privacy of our bedroom, we would be offending the sanctity of marriage that guys like Ryan have pledged to protect?
And if Bill Clinton got a few blowjobs from Monica Lewinsky in the privacy of his office, that was worse than him dragging Hillary to S&M clubs and expecting her to let him fuck her in a cage, while people watched?
Can you believe the double standards these perverted GOP freaks have?
It just gets more and more unbelievable.

Abu Grrrrr...
Yesterday on "The Daily Show," Jon Stewart ran a clip of George Bush talking about the Iraqi prison torture scandal. Bush pronounced it, "the Abu Ger-eff (long pause) ...situation."
Considering how many times we have all heard the term Abu Ghraib pronounced, one might think the president could manage to put the syllables "grr" and "raib" together to form the word "ghraib."
Why can't he pronounce it?
Because he just doesn't give a shit, that's why.
He's the president of the free world, he doesn't have to give a shit.
He has a memo saying he didn't have to give a shit.
Congress and the Senate are Republican-dominated, and they say he doesn't have to give a shit.
I'm sure if he had his druthers, he'd just as soon drop a newculer missile on Abu Gereff.
And speaking of that memo, I loved how Rumsfeld wrote at the bottom, with regard to prison guards being allowed to keep detainees standing up for up to four hours at a time, "Why only 4 hours? I think 8-12 hours would be acceptable."
Bush said he couldn't remember seeing any memo that advised him he could ignore the Geneva Conventions with regard to prison torture. He also forgot signing the botton of the memo, acknowledging that he'd read it.
