What did you expect? Catholicism is severely fucked up to begin with, plugging in some scary-looking ex-Nazi was just another blockheaded move.

Organized religion is meant to control a perpetually-frightened stupid population (An angry God? Fuck off.) -- Why not use it to further the "battle of civilizations" that certain morons have tried to test-market..?

How come I've never read of any Muslim crusades into Europe? I think that 9/11/01 was custom-scripted to invent a new "enemy"... or did "God" put all that lovely oil under Muslim land and it's our right to go steal it?

Let it go -- that's all you can do. Make the best of what you have left. Don't poison yourself with hatred.

The article is curious in that it neglects any of the gung-ho PNAC spirit that apparently has driven all of Dubya's other international antics.

If the Geneva Conventions are "vague" (have I died and gone to hell?), then by all means let's strap Cheney on Ye Olde Waterboard of Justice and hear what the big fella has to say... about 9/11, about his puppet, George... he can talk and we'll just listen.

No more Special Prosecutors... just torture for elected officials. This could work. Once you've somehow slipped the mooring of your principles, anything is possible.

"You know fraudulent voting is a federal crime, don't you?" she purred, smiling sweetly.

So can I extrapolate from this that Diebold's offices ought to have been seized by the FBI some time ago and its executives spirited off to Gitmo for summary waterboarding..?

Does someone referred to as a "Czar" sound to you like they're open and receptive to new ideas and initiatives..?

We could paste it up and xerox it and... oh, fuck, I guess maybe a web page would be more expedient, eh..? As long as there's electricity.

OK, so no drug jokes, no "sexist" humor..? Hmm... I guess you won't be keeping track of how many ambushes of US troops were leaked by Mossad.. WAIT! STOP! NOT PC!! STOP! STOP!!!

I'd rather dust the tops of the door jambs than have to sit through any kind of televised drama. Television is for kid's cartoons and live sports, maybe a cooking show now and then. Beyond that the television is a playback device for DVDs and video games. Not for viewing filler. The old off-air test pattern was better than endless infomercials.

There are also questions about an all-expenses-paid trip to the Super Bowl two Burns aides enjoyed courtesy of SunCruz, a Florida company partly owned by Abramoff,

Is this too far into the "fringe" to be of interest? Prior to 9/11/01, Mohammed Atta was a frequent guest on Abramoff's SunCruz gambling boats... is this not an interesting factoid..?

Worse, who'd READ it..? I recently watched "Yellow Submarine" and the Nowhere Man seemed busy writing ridiculous books on subjects that didn't need books written about them...

I agree with another letter writer: marriage is a gruesome no-win trap for men. We'd do our sons a great favor by clearly warning them that marriage is a bad contract and that they'd be fools to enter into it under ANY circumstances.

Great sex in marriage..? "Make her a goddess" as Alan Watts once advised. Many a night I lit candles, rubbed lotions, et cetera -- one partner in my marriage had imagination. The other did not.

I'm better off alone. Think of a female black widow spider getting fucked and preparing to consume the head of her mate. That's actually a mercy killing.

Love those skyboxes. Good places for millionaires to watch millionaire athletes. And how about those millionaire musicians..? Not much connection to Nawleans, but wtf. Thank God we have our millionaire's playground put back together again. Lots of happy white faces in the crowd. If you want to see a negro, you'd better look on the field. It's ok, they're millionaires, too.

Too bad about those creatures... ants... what do you call them..? People? Yes, too bad about them.

ESPN really laid it on thick. Covering up and and all Bush fuck ups. "Heck of a job" -- no Arabian stallions were hurt during Katrina.

Spit babies don't live.

If the cameras were switched off, would he exist..? "We have to find a way out of Iraq" -- ok, how about the way we came? Load the surviving grunts and gruntlets onto airplanes and get the fuck out of Iraq... how hard is that? No "finding a way" necessary.

Oh, and what about Hillary? "That bitch can fuck off and die" OH SHIT GOV WARNER THE MICROPHONES WERE ON!!! OH NO!!!

He sounds as fake as his teeth look...

"This provision would perpetuate the indefinite detention of hundreds of individuals against whom the government has brought no charges and presented no evidence, without any recourse to justice whatsoever," Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy declared at the start of Wednesday's Senate debate. "This is un-American. It is unconstitutional and it is contrary to American interests."

I still do not understand how Dubya aka "Little Hitler" can get away with murder on a large scale and yet not be impeached, while the previous statesman-like resident of the White House was impeached over a fucking blowjob..?!

Free advice (worth what you pay for it) to Democrats: Come out strongly questioning the official 9/11/01 coverup story. If you accept the official line ("Arab terrorists" somehow got skyscrapers to collapse due to jet plane strikes the towers were designed to withstand) then Dubya is all-powerful and untouchable.

Try repeating this to yourselves for practice: "I question the official version of what happened on 9/11/01."

Knock them on their ass and then destroy them while they're spluttering.
