A quote, an article, and an opinion
"It is always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."
- Hitler's second-in-command, Hermann Goering at the Nuremberg trials, not long before he poisoned himself in his jail cell.
From OFB, a very detailed and articulate article about shame.
I know I generally try to keep from getting too political on the blog here, but even I can't ignore the fact that we need to get this asshole out of office as soon as possible. Quite frankly, I thought he was going to be either impeached or brought up on war crimes a year ago right after this whole Iraqi Freedom mess started, and the fact that he's still in office, still pulling the wool over middle America's eyes and still spreading his bullshit makes my blood boil a little hotter, makes my hands shake a little more, makes my eyes cross and go blurry more often than normal. If we don't get this guy out of the White House come November, then I have no idea what I'm going to do. I honestly don't know if I want to take another four years of this. I mean, if he fucked up THIS bad in his first four years, then what in the high holy cocksucker is going to happen if he gets to be "in charge" for another four years?? Honest to fucking god, I'm actually frightened as to what might happen, I really, really am.
And once again, America looks like the asshole of the world.
Evil Brian's Evil Thoughts STILL wholeheartedly endorses THIS GUY.
