Some people say "O, what would you know about Democrats? You aren't even one yourself!!!!" Know what? I voted for plenty of you over the years, more often than not, and I've had my share of complaints about yas, but if I wasn't a radical Libertarian, I'd be a Dem. My parents were Dems (my siblings were, but I don't know what happened to them, either). The Love of My Life is a diehard Dem. And I still vote for ya, and I will again, too.
Anyway, after reading about some of this day's events, and after reading this diary, I no longer believe that the heinous crimes of BushCo continue, unabated, "Because The Opposition Guys Are Spineless Wussies".
Now, you're gonna have to work with me here, OK? I've been putting in 12-14 hour days, at least 5 days a week (if not six), for a good couple of years. So I'll cop to "maybe it's just me, and my brain's just a little overtaxed right now..."
Mind you, the Dems are trying harder now, aren't they? Finally! I am heartened, truly. This is so good to see. But still, IMO, this seems more and more to me like BushCo really, really, thinks they're "untouchable", and they've got a big can of whoop-ass to prove it. Just TRY and stop 'em, buster, they'll unload it on you!
And worse yet, depending on who you ask these days, the Opposition Party could end this tomorrow.
But that's just it. They haven't. THEY HAVE NOT. WTF? WHAT. THE FUCK. ??????
Whatever! I give up. Would someone make some sense out of this for me, please, any way you can? Because I just do NOT GET how this "flouting the law" crap can still be going ON!
Shit. SHIT! Whoever said "feckless" about Bush the other day missed it by a couple of letters. It's "fearless". As in, this guy must actually believe that he is above the law.
This...this "President", of the United States of America, ordered someone else not to respond to a court of law? He ordered Miers not to appear. Ordered!. WHAT???
OK, fine, bring on the tinfoil. Bring it on! Nothing else is working, people. Look, no one acts that fearless in front of witnesses, anywhere, while acting in the capacity of Leader of the Quote-Unquote Free World, unless he:
A) is completely delusional (see: 25th Amendment, Invoking Of, by Richard B Cheney))
B) is challenging everyone because--well, because he can, with the help of all his similarly-minded "cronies" (see: "Maybes all that stuff about jackbooted thugs and black helicopters really was true after all...!")
C) really does have evil, wicked, NASTY intent, along with his "neo-con" buddies, and No, He Really Wasn't Kidding About Being "Dictator", Either (see: "9/11, The Sequel")
OR:
D) In a desperate bid to buy time until he can flee to Paraguay, BushCo plans on playing this chapter out as high drama in front of the SCLM and the rest of the world (which actually probably ties back to A in some fashion, but I digress...)
The brain reels, at D, does it not? "Miers and Taylor Go To Jail For BushCo". This could go on for months! And they could kill two birds with one stone! They could beat the crap (figuratively) out of the Clintons (some more) all through the 2008 campaign season, via our wonderful psuedo-fucking-fake-ass-compromised-dumb-downed "Major News Media" (aka: SCLM, hardee-har-fucking-har) because (Warning: Snark Ahead) "Their Martyrs Are Doing It For The Global War On Terrah, While Ours Just Did It For a Low-Life Womanizer Who Disgraced The Presidency"!
I am so over this heaping pile of dung called The Government of My Country, Version 2.007. They've all gone mad! They have completely and utterly broken our system and our Constitution. I no longer believe that anyone--not Dems, not Libertarians, not even decent, centrist Elephant-Folks (oh, come now, surely you know a few) can stop this bunch. They're stark-staring crazy. They aren't gonna give this country back to us, either, not unless we throw some serious shit at their fan.
Jesus, I should go eat (I'll stop back in a bit, though, in case anyone else would rather read than rant)...I've been at this desk for 13 hours today. Glad I'm a geek for a living, so I visit often. 'Cuz I'll tell ya, if it weren't for diaries like this one, I would have lost it long ago. So thanks for listening, if you've gotten this far!
