Seven Years of Excessive Punishment
Tue Jul 03, 2007 at 10:27:21 PM PDT
Democrats, when are you going to commute this excessive sentence we've been serving ever since January 20, 2001? This bought and paid for travesty of justice known as the Bush presidency was imposed on America by five black-robed hypocrites on what used to be the Supreme Court, and must be commuted through Impeachment.
This country has suffered enough.
For seven years, we've been imploring you to restore justice, Democrats. We've implored you by phone. By email. By fax. On blogs, and face to face in Congressional offices coast to coast. We've begged you with tears in our eyes, we've begged you with barely restrained fury, we've begged you to defend the Constitution in every pleading, imploring, respectful form of communication imaginable. We've jumped through all the hoops, time and time again.
But all we've gotten from you are patronizing platitudes, empty promises, and futile hearings.
Meanwhile, a jabbering moron with the blood of half-a-million innocent people on his hands keeps smirking, his sneering war criminal accomplice keeps telling us to go fuck ourselves, you keep humiliating us in creative new ways, and we're heading into Codependence Day 2007 bracing ourselves for the rocket's red glare and bombs bursting in air all over that great big oilfield otherwise known as Iran.
A corporate plutocracy reeking of greed, exploitation, and war profiteering is not the kind of future the Founding Fathers had in mind for America when they declared independence from a delusional decider named George back on July 4, 1776.
Oh say, can you see that, Democrats?
World War III may very well greet us by the dawn's early light one fine Commander Guy morning if you don't begin Impeachment hearings. So it's time you opened your enabling eyes and starting behaving like American patriots instead of like bleating sheep.
Our star-spangled banner is splattered with the blood of half a million innocent men, women, and children, but His Imperial Neocon Majesty Dick Cheney doesn't give a damn. Half a million dead dark-skinned people is just a little collateral damage, no big deal.
Iran is next on his list and the clock is ticking . . .
You don't seem to be aware of this, Democrats, so here's a clue for you: if Iran is attacked there will be a chain reaction of lethal consequences no one will be able to control. We may well see the twilight's last gleaming all over the world.
But hey, progressives, let's be polite while we wait for Democrats to sort out this slight misunderstanding with the White House about this rule of law thing. Let's be polite while World War III is staring us in the face, these politicians in Washington deserve our respect and must be addressed politely, don't you know. Especially Democrats. They're sensitive. Half a million human beings are dead, the survival of American democracy is at stake, but we have to remember that "name-calling" is inappropriate and counterproductive.
If you ask me, not defending the Constitution has been somewhat inappropriate and counterproductive, in a national suicide sort of way, but may God damn me to Hell in a heartbeat if I forget we're supposed to be polite to Beltway criminals and enablers while we're bending over, grabbing our ankles, and kissing our asses goodbye.
Yes. Call me an unsophisticated profanity peddler, but it seems to me that since the Constitution is off the table, Impeachment is off the table, withdrawal from Iraq is off the table, and attacking Iran is the stampeding elephant in the room no one in Congress wants to look at, then perhaps it's time to ponder what our polite pleas for sanity have accomplished.
How much longer are we supposed to be polite? How much longer do we have to beg these politicians to just do their jobs? How much longer are we supposed to endure this degrading spectacle of a president and vice-president who shit on everything America has ever stood for?
They have dragged us all into the gutter. But we don't have to stay there.
Let's not kid ourselves. One woman is standing in the way of Impeachment hearings. Pelosi has to be the primary target of Impeachment activism. She has tolerated for far too long hypocritical lectures about patriotism and pervasive abuses of power from a White House infested with traitors who aren't even fit to look upon our flag, much less wave it around with such chickenhawk squawking righteousness.
If Democrats will not Impeach, they are not part of the solution we so desperately need, they are part of the problem. In my view, the only Democrats in Congress who deserve respect from us are the co-sponsors of the Impeachment Resolution against Dick Cheney. The rest of them need the riot act read to them, on the phone, face to face, by fax and email and letters and newspaper LTE's.
I have two words of advice for progressives hoping to influence these "Democrats":
Unleash.
Hell.
I cannot be polite while the worst clusterfuck collection of lying, scheming, lethally incompetent idiotic shitheads in the history of American politics continue to pollute Washington D.C. They make me ashamed with every breath I take that I am an American.
Being polite to these people is absolutely useless, yet far too many people here on Daily Kos will never admit it. I'm tired of the endless arguing about something that is so glaringly obvious, so I won't be posting any more diaries for awhile.
I have nothing more to say here at this point, other than good luck everyone, we're going to need it.
