A Thousand Words?
Yeah, so I saw this and thought it spot on. Not really funny though. It might be if it wasn't true:
I hate a game of cowboys and Indians
Dear President Bush II
Stop mindlessly supporting whatever Israel does. When they're wrong, hey they're wrong. Three kidnapped SOLDIERS is not a reason to start a regional conflict that could easily knock the small semblance of democracy that has taken root right outta the box.
This is also an opportunity to accomplish two goals. Show some International diplomacy AND create an inkling of goodwill in the middle east. Lebanon isn't an enemy......yet. Nothing else has brought crude prices down, maybe some good old fashioned morality will. They're already burning the US flag in Lebanon and Palestine imagine what they're planning in places where we've been nothing but the cocky aggressors.
I'm fairly certain this won't be read, much less answered. But I must try. I should've written someone who can actually interpret the Constitution and believes that civil liberties means more than taking away all our freedoms with a smile on their face. Dammit. Oh well, I'll still be here wishing for a Libertarian with a chance.
Cordially,
Common Sense

I love a parade....
Dear Israelis,
Get the fuck out of Lebanon. Two words. Over reaction. Seriously.

Hello?
It's been awhile. I've been keeping up with the stuff and this is how I feel about it all:
Happy Fourth of July to all Americans. To anyone out there who looks at this and isn't an American, good day to you too.
For those non-American citizens (or residents), please remember that this is the day we celebrate the beauty of independence and the liberty that should be available to all people. Please forget that the Bush Reic...er...Administration is doing it's level best to take our freedoms and make them their bitch (prison style) for not only America, but a few other places too.
On the "Maybe the GOP isn't completely brainwashed" front, the Senate denied a "flag desecration" law. It was SCARY close. It only failed by one vote. Listen, I want no part in burning the flag of this or any other country. What I do want is the freedom to do it. If it's not infringing on the rights of others (i.e. limiting their freedom, putting them in harms way, intimidating, or otherwise harassing) then I don't care what you do with a piece of fabric. If only the government would reevaluate their actual role and get rid of the god complex.
With that said North Korea needs to be dealt with NOW. Iraq wasn't necessary and in the mad rush to secure oil fields (good job there BTW, the price of crude has gone up 600% since Bush took office) N. Korea and Iran have become nuclear countries. All this while violating every treaty and agreement they ever signed. Wasn't this one of the big rallying cries when trying to convince the Senate that Iraq was a priority? Well, this is a little more serious than shooting a couple of tracers at our planes. Now N. Korea is actually trying to intimidate with the threat of nuclear war. That is the first time I've heard anything worthy of a "preemptive strike". But we can't. Because we're bogged down in the middle of the desert.
It seems the committed have gotten the keys to the asylum.
Enjoy the fireworks and barbecues folks. Oh, and as we start to gear up for the next big elections, remember that there are more than two political parties in this country. Let's start exploring them all. Maybe someone has a better way to do it.
