Just found one of the political protest sites I had bookmarked has been bullied into shutting down, gee I wonder who would be offended by a little free speech, hmmm???

A famous local psychic once told me I had been a female French freedom fighter in WWII and was killed by the Nazis to silence me when they invaded France, makes sense to me. I have a fascination with WWII Europe but no real historical interests again until I reappeared in the early 60's here in the US. Supposedely I was a guardian angel in the interim. I really wish I were doing more now, but this is my little corner of the internet and I do hope people at least stop by. Janeane Garofolo, who I really respect, said the other day that at this point a vote for Bush is a character flaw and I think she nailed it right on the head. She said the people that are standing behind Bush are doing it out of spite, which is not as farfetched as it may sound. I've always thought it was stupid stubbornness also that people are still saying they support Bush after he has willfully unleased Armageddon on the world, I mean, really, what the hell do they see in him that's decent and good anymore? As a bumper sticker I sold (I think I have a few left still) says "Lobotomies for Republicans, It's the Law!".

I found a funny UK site the other day with some great commentary on Bush and Tony Blair (I still feel sorry for him being dragged under by us, the "US" actually, he seemed like such a decent guy). And our country never ceases to embarass ourselves, now we're playing fraternity initiation games with Iraqi prisoners. Of course I say this from the state where one of the largest universities accidentally killed some of it's students by building a huge bonfire which collapsed on themselves in order to commemorate a bloody football game, and they want to continue building them. I'm sure the soldiers are going stir crazy over there, but do they have to shoot photos and videos of their crimes? What are we, 13 years old shooting paint balls out of car windows at people?

To the rest of the world, please understand we have to make jokes about the horrible things that have been happening these past few years to keep from going insane. Most Americans truly can't believe the hell we've fallen into (and so quickly and efficiently too!), our rights being stripped away one layer at a time, while our government plays God with us and the rest of the world (it's for our own good, you understand). We have our own Taliban now, it's called the Republican party. So much for separation of church and state, which, not being a fundamentalist Christian, and still being of child bearing age, makes me especially uncomfortable. If I could stand the cold weather, and thought we wouldn't conquer their asses too, Canada would look very appealing right now.

I gave money earlier this week to Howard Dean's revamped site, Democracy for America.com, and just saw that we reached out goal of $250,000, yea!! There is some hope after all for our poor fucked up country. I keep telling Sparky that the entire country really can't all be blind Bush following idiots, but he watches news TV all day and believes all of their insane polls and pundits. I have to believe there are some intelligent people in the US (which ain't easy being isolated in Texas -- we won't be a battleground state this November) or I don't think I could go on. I'm so glad we don't have kids, I see way too many little brain-washed future Republicans, we need a generation of really motivated anit-establishment cyber hippies. I know they're out there somewhere...

Speaking of bullies (or cowards) Disney has refused to distribute Michael Moore's new documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11", gee, I wonder why? I have to admit that Disney doesn't come to mind when I think of revolutionary anti-establishment exposes, but you never know. But, I think this is like the Al Franken/Bill O'Reilly lawsuit, it will only help him and add weight to his film. I can't wait to see it, personally. I just hope people pay attention to the message, this administration is so ballsy it just tries to blow off any claims against it, even with lots of proof. I'd like to think we're seeing the beginning of the great foundation crumbling going on right now, but I don't want to get my hopes up waiting for the impending implosion.
