September 11th
Happy September 11th everybody! Isn't it wonderful? I can't believe it's here already. I hardly had time to get all of my shopping done. Did you get all of your shopping done for all of your republican war mongering friends. 9/11 is their holiday. It's their special day. The day they celebrate being strong on terror. They salivate at the thought of 9/11. The day that gives them the excuse to kill thousands of people. The day that helped them pull the wool over everyone's eyes. The day that they use the innocent American blood of almost 3000 people to declare a jihad against Islam.
I heard the biggest gift on most neocon's wish list was a video of a muslim being waterboarded. Not anyone specific, just anybody who looks vagely unamerican. Another big item is this bumper sticker: 9/11, Yee Fucking Haw, Watch Out You Muslim Towel Head Bastards Because Now You Have Unleashed The Fury Of The United States National Guard, And They Are Going To Kick You And Your Women And Children's Asses Back To The Stone Age All For Your Own Good Because You Are An A-Rab, Lord Have Mercy On Your Heretical Soul, Amen And God Bless America. Yee Haw!
I hope everyone realizes how outrageos this is. The gross tragedy the republicans have commited against the world by using the memories of the 2998 people that died September 11th, 2001 as an excuse to gain power and influence on the world. It's disgusting. The victims of the September 11th terrorist attack have been used politically by the republicans as an excuse to re-elect more conservatives just because they say they are hard on terror. The real terror is the republican party. Terrorism is defined as "the systematic use of fear especially as a means of coercion." That is exactly what the republicans do. They are sysematically using the attacks of September 11th to strike fear in our hearts and using that as a means of coercion. I wish the American people would get hard on terror and hunt bush down and try him for the deaths of all the American sevicemen who have died at his hands of his illegal war.
Yes this should be a day of remembrance. We should remember the innocent people who died on September 11th, 2001. But we also have a duty to remember all 90,000 people you and I have killed since then in their name. We elected and then re-elected this murdering asshole bush, which means all that blood is on our hands. We should remember this so as not to let this happen again. We should not let our emotions and our prejudice and our greed and our blind support for our party lead us into war ever again. September 11th should be remembered as the day we tucked our tails between our legs and bowed down to the terrorism of the ruling party and let them have free reign. The day we let the republican party fuck us because we are afraid of appearing weak. We should remember this as the day we got fucked by george bush and his war mongering friends.

Veterans Protest the DNC
A group of Iraq war veterans marched the streets of Denver in protest to the war. They wanted to show that the Democrats are just as responsible for the war in Iraq as the republicans. They also had a letter that they wanted read at the convention. The letter was a plea to stop the war, and make reparations to the Iraqi people, and for health care for all of the veterans that have served.
Instead of protesting in Denver's "free-speech zones", the veterans took their protest to the streets, and encountered Denver's anti first amendment police, who tried to attack a group of peaceful people.

This is exactly why we have the right to assembly anywhere, not in some fenced in parking lot 5 miles away from what you are protesting. What I don't understand is how come this went unreported. I heard about it on a tech podcast. Hopefully when they take their protests to the republican convention it will get a little more air time.

Guantanamo Bay Terrorist: The US Government
I want someone on the "right" to explain to me Guantanamo Bay.
We have a military base in Cuba, and Cuba says we have no right being there. Yet we say we do, and our dick is bigger than yours, so fuck you Fidel, fuck you world, we'll do what we want. (On a side note, imagine if some super-powerful government bigger than us decided to build bases here and we didn't have the resources to fight it? What would we do? Oh, never mind,... China already has a Wal*Mart in every town.) Back to Guantanamo.
And what we do in Cuba, is to illegally, detain people, REGARDLESS OF THEIR GUILT. And the only reason we detain these people there is because, if we detained these criminals on American soil, they would have specific rights under the Constitution, and get fair trials. But the current administration doesn't care about fair trials. Their only concern is to gain more power. wealth, and influence through the threat of fear.
So, if you are incarcerated by the American government and sent to Guantanamo (American soil right?, Isn't an American army base in a foreign country considered sovereign soil? If not, how is John McCain allowed to run for president, since he was born on a base in Panama?) you have no right to a speedy trail, you have no right to a public trial by an impartial jury, and no right to have the Assistance of Counsel for your defense. Despite the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution, and despite what the Supreme Court ruled recently.

The Sixth Amendment:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district where in the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.
What are we afraid of? Aren't we the home of the brave? The land of the free? Why don't we prosecute these criminals in our existing court system?

No End in Sight
I watched this movie over the weekend, No End in Sight. It shows just how badly the white house messed up the Iraq war. Paul Bremmer in particular. If you feel like you need something to make you outraged, watch this movie.
