FULL CIRCLE
[Read the article: How 1968 changed Hillary]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]HRC has certainly come around to where she began. Years of insider deals and tons of special interest money, inevidably turn the sweetest of fruits rotten.

WAR AGAINST THE POOR, NICE, WHITE LADY
[Read the article: My last word (for now) on sexism]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Day two,.......it's all so unfair,.....*sniff*....

HISTORY IGNORED
[Read the article: Through a bong, darkly]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The 60's were great, in that the boomers took literally the lessons taught by their parents. All men are created equal, including ancestors of slaves. Segregation is wrong and must end. Women deserve equality in the home, in educational oportunities, and in the workplace. Treat others how you would like to be treated. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Imagine there's no heaven.
The Military Industrial Complex that Eisenhower warned us about was in fact real, and would continue to inject itself into Government until it controlled it, and us, completely.
If only little George Bush and little Dick Cheney had been forced into combat in Vietnam, how different things might be today. If only Bill and Hillary hadn't forgot all the lessons of the 60's, rendered amnesiatic and stupid, by too much time inside the privileged money sewers of Washington.
The lessons of the 60's were good. They just weren't heeded.

"PRO-CLINTON FEMINIST WHINE"
[Read the article: Hey, Obama boys: Back off already!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This pretty much describes it.
Poor, poor, set upon unfairly by those "boys", nice white lady, day thirty something......*sniff*....***
***Any mention of her lying, false indignations, racial attacks, or any of a number of legitimate reasons for not supporting her, are not to be mentioned. The fact that she's a SHE, gives her complete immunity from ANY honest criticisms.
Got it, "boys"???

YOU AIN'T SEEN NUTHIN' YET
[Read the article: This Modern World]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Those who think it will be status quo till the little drunk leaves office haven't reviewed his history.
In almost every other of his entire life of fuck ups,
he spent the final days in a steadily tightenening death spiral, followed by a spectacular mushroom cloud of complete destruction.***
Hey, it's what he does, it's ALL he does,.....

***Poppy can't sweep the stench under the carpet and make it all better this time.

DICK CHENEY
[Read the article: Dick Cheney was never a "grown-up"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Is as close to pure evil incarnate, that I've ever witnessed in an American Political leader in my lifetime.
He has absolutely no hint of remorse about the hundreds of thousands of people who've been slaughtered for his personal financial gain. He is a classic sociopath and mass murderer.
A true War Criminal in every sense.
If our Government were functioning correctly, he'd have been executed already.

RIGHTFULLY ANGRY
[Read the article: Will Obama's debate stumble hurt him?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I know I was pissed by yet another example of the MSM not asking one question about the subversion of our Constitution, gross violations of the Rule of Law by this Administration, Illegal Domestic Spying and Eavesdropping, Torture, Gitmo, the Politicized Justice Department, Out of Control Executive Power, what ever happened to Habeus, why is it called the Patriot Act, when in reality it is the Oppression and Facist Dictator Act, etc., ad nauseum.
But I know what this story is really about:
Poor, set upon white lady, day ???,.......*sniff*....
I wonder if a year from now Joan will be writing about "What would it have been like if Hillary were in this situation instead of that (yuk, patooey) President Barack???
Man, get over it already.....

THIN THE HERD DAY
[Read the article: Let's dump "Earth Day"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'm all for a thin the herd day, in which thoughtless, violent, fatassed idiots, politicians, and corporate bigshots are exterminated en masse, (all naturally of course),and we revert back to living within the earths natural boundries, like Native Americans did.
They only used what they needed, didn't hoard, didn't "own" even the lands they lived on and hunted. Game was plentiful, and water was clean and pure. The Europeans however, had early on trashed their part of the Globe, and sought to find new lands to destroy.
If there were an all powerful entity high above controlling and judging all things, I'm sure it would have seen fit long ago to have chosen the obviously superior Native American model instead of the European one, and asteroided their asses out of existence.
Until the last McDonalds munching fatass drives his hummer off a cliff, we'll continue merrily down the path to greenhouse hell, discussing what we should do, when elimination of most (if not all) of our species is the only logical answer.

COLLATERAL DAMAGE
[Read the article: Tom the Dancing Bug]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I especially like the civilians being killed while young George, er I mean, Billy, shoots his RPG at the "Bad Guys". Funny how those accidental deaths mount up over time....
-
FACE IT
[Read the article: Keith Olbermann apologizes for his Clinton remark]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]No matter who apologizes, or how many times they do it, it'll never be enough for either Salon or Joan or the rest of the angry old white ladies of America. (AOWLA)
Face it, nothing less than Hillary shoved down America's throats will suffice, and if they don't get their way, they'll make you sorry for the rest of your miserable life.

MOTHERGOOSE LAND
[Read the article: Tom the Dancing Bug]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Fortunately for Scalia and the rest of the Neocon Nazis, torture actually works in fantasy lands like the ones they inhabit in their minds. Unfortunately for many who find themselves in one of their real life gulags, they can't tell the difference.

OH NO HE DIDN'T
[Read the article: Opus]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]And I thought my dream life-vs-real life reality was bad......

"I'LL FREE THESE IRAQI PEOPLE"
[Read the article: Fred Hiatt on the noble glories of occupation]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"Even if I have to kill every last one of 'em to do it"
Signed,
Little George
PS: I'm a War President
Why are these men not in prison awaiting execution for War Crimes and Treason???
Oh, that's right,....the Rule of Law and Constitution are off the table.......my bad....

AS A NATION, WE ARE RUINED
[Read the article: Iraqi sues U.S. military contractors]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Even if we had new Governance that completely reversed all of the policies and rules instituted by this evil and completely covert, secretive regime, it will not repair the damage already done.
Unless and until the Bush/Cheney Crime Cartel is brought before a War Crimes Tribunal in the Hague and sentenced to death for their Heinous Crimes against Humanity, we will never regain our stature of greatness in the world, and in fact may be permanently damaged.
I fear we have ignored history and it is now time to pay the bill for that lapse in vigilance.
