Ten years ago today, the world changed. At the time, we just didn't know it yet.
On Dec. 12th, 2000 five men in robes had their political "markers" called in.
Noobs. There isn't a single family in the world connected enough, rich enough, and politically strong enough to match or touch the Bushes. Those five men in robes certainly couldn't stand up to that political pressure.
Bitching about 178 billion in tax cuts for millionaires for the next two years. What about the enabling of republicans by democrats since 2000?
A lot of democrats signed off on the Iraq War, and the original Bush tax cuts, and all the off the books spending under Bush, democrats need to stop acting the victim and start fighting for real.
I knew the election of 2000 was fucked up. I knew the Constitution was broken. The time since has done nothing but validate exactly what I've known all along (thanks and shout outs to Conceptual Guerrilla and The Rude Pundit...):
- Neocons are ruthless and will do anything to win.
- Neocons think you're all stupid.
- Neocons don't actually want freedom and liberty, neocons only want the power to enforce the illusion of freedom and liberty.
- Neocons don't give a shit about the Constitution.
- All Bush voters are tainted with the neocon corruption.
- The GOP is tainted with the neocon corruption.
- Democrats who voted for Bush are tainted with the neocon corruption.
- Al Gore was actually the real President Elect of the United States of America, the Supreme Court was wrong. It was a bloodless coup.
