Hmmm. The pooleece in Denver working hand in hand with corporate America & the right?? The Man is cracking down on protestors and those who believe that the DNC is just as corrupt as the Republican Party?? Who'd of thunk.

Back in the day, big ol' Bob Hite & Canned Heat sang a pretty good song about Denver & the police:

"I went to Denver

Late last fall

I went to do my job

Yeah I didn't break any law

We worked a hippie place

Like many in our land

They couldn't bust the place

And so they got the band

`Cause the police in Denver

No, they don't want none of them long hairs hanging around

And that's the reason why

They want to tear Canned Heat's reputation down

You people in Denver

Will know what I mean

Yeah, the things I'm gonna tell ya

Yeah, you've all heard and seen

You remember when a cop on the beat

Used to rob and steal

Today they're gone, but the others get it on

So you know just how I feel

`Cause the police in Denver

Lord, they don't want none of them long hairs hanging around

And that's the reason why

They try to tear Canned Heat's reputation down

Yeah, they try to tear it down, boy

They ain't gonna do it though

Let me tell you this just one more time

Just one more thing I wanna tell ya

Before I go

It's a shame the Man in Denver

Has to lie and mistreat people so

Now six months ain't no sentence

One year ain't no time

When I hear from one to ten

It worries my troubled mind

`Cause the police in Denver

Lord, don't want no long hairs around

And that's the reason why

They try to tear Canned Heat's reputation down"

Query: why do these lists always break down into a pissing contest and a war (??) of wags?? Yech.

burlydee writes (and yes, he didn't make it up)：”Apparently, this is the type of foreign policy we can expect if McCain takes office. Cindy McCain bringing cookies to foreign troops all across the globe as Senator, excuse me, President P.O.W. huffs and bluffs us into a new Cold War.”Scary thought. Snake-eyes going to visit the glib-speaking guy with the snake-tongue American trained sock-puppet in Georgia -- that beautiful little freedom lovin' country -- (is it only me, but why do the guys in America's 'client' states all speak English at their press conferences? Think Afghanistan, Pakistan (well, he got out in time), Iraq, Georgia, etc. Maybe Cindy can open a beer distribution concession while she's at it?? And what the heck are the Israelis doing inGeorgia (besides making a killing selling weapons -- what, they're still the bottom-feeders of the weapon-selling world, already -- think South Africa and all those other lovely little states that even America wouldn't touch -- over-the-table, anyway??)

Yikes, absurdity doesn't even begin to describe what I'm seeing . . .

hornet driver (or is that hornetdriver??)weighs in with his usually witty & biting insight: "... having much trouble wiping all that brown shit off your lips?"

Now, ol' driver's been away for a month (since his last idiot post -- either he forgot his password (agin), or he'd have us believe he's fightin' fer freedom & defendin' democracy -- you know, the American Way Of Life (AWOL??) ain't negotiationable). Now again, I ask the question. Is this moron actually in the military (I know, I know, the military is chock full of morons -- but flying planes??), or is he another pull-your-pudd-military-wannabes). Then I though about it. GWB called himself a fighter pilot. Heck, he spent a few sober hours defending Lubbock, TX against gooks, keeping fellows like Rush & Dick safe from the dangers of gawdless comminizzem. And the current wannabe, Senior , err, Senor McCain (not the brightest boy in his class, but what the heck, dad had as much, if not more stroke than Georgie's dad) got shot down know that McCain was a P.O.W.?? So then, who am I to call old Hornetdriver out. Either way, real-deal sawn-off Tom Cruise death-from-above fly-guy, or real-deal pudd-puller, his heat is in the right place. And to read his eloquent words, you just gotta know he's a real deal ambassador for American . . . and probably a hero, too.

Derbig Mooser writes: "Now the State is engaged in finding out which of its young men (and a few young women, too) are willing to attack their fellow-citizens for a paycheck."

Heck, Derbig, I'm sure there are a lot of burly, shaven-headed, tattooed white guys (& gals) out there who'd gladly whack their fellow-citizens (especially the incorrectly thinking lib'ral ones) for free. Probably these folks, and the folks that support them are a majority in America. And you know something is really going on with their choice of eyewear -- what's with the silly semi-athlete sunglasses already? Doesn't matter if they're in the military or the police. Give 'em a uniform, a gun/baton/taser/pepper-gun and a pair of those 'brotherhood' sunglasses and they go all-tribal on you. Hoo-haw!!

Anyway, I'm surprised that everyone is in such shock that this is happening. In America!! The Land Of The Free!! The Defender Of Democracy!! Jaysus, what do you expect in a country where people worship the flag, worship the military, and live in constant fear from the 'other'?? Same as it ever was . . .
