OK, I'll admit I'm a little prone to excessive worry sometimes, but it still seemed weird to me the other day that when I was checking the hits on my blog's site counter, I found one from the Department of Justice's server. I was caught up short by this. I mean, my blog is a tiny little capillary in the massive circulatory system of political sites. (DKos is the freakin' AORTA, man!) Why on earth would ANYONE from the DOJ be interested in my insignificant little site? Hmmmmm. Jump with me and we will muse over it.
Am I considered disloyal to America because of my proud association with DKos, a well-known CommieNazi site? Am I catching notice for my relentless attacks on Dear Leader, his borderline psychopathic vice president, and the army of raving helldemons that bays and howls in support of them? Am I on the hitlist of known Democratic activists in that hotbed of treason known as Will County, Illinois? Is it because of the rumor (totally unfounded, I might add) that I dated Bin Laden in high school? Is it because I repeated the well known fact that Ann Coulter is a pit viper with breast implants? What???
In all seriousness though, WTF is going on? Are you trying to tell me that someone at Gonzales Central has nothing better to do than look at my virulently pro-Democratic, viciously anti-Bush blog? I've never advocated violence against anyone on my site. I've never advocated the violent overthrow of the government. I've regularly condemned our nation's enemies in Al Qaeda. So what on earth are they trying to learn? Why I'm against sending people to Uzbekistan to be tortured with boiling water? Why I'm against the planned Third World War starting with an attack on Iran? Because I think Dick Cheney committed treason in the 90s by dealing with Iraq and Iran in violation of U.S. law? You tell me.
Shouldn't the DOJ be focused on attacking organized crime and terrorism? Have others of you with blogs encountered similar scrutiny? How many of you have gotten a looksee from the DOJ?
I'm probably overreacting. Sigh. I do that. But even if the hit was just a bot roaming around the Internet Tubes looking for anti-Bush rants, that alone is sobering.
Not that I give a fuck, you understand. My little capillary will keep circulating the truth about our heinous "leadership" and the conservative slugs that are propping it up. It will join with the thousands of other capillaries (and the aorta) to help undermine the worst Administration in American history.
It's the least I can do, Alberto.
