Here are some links picked up in the process of writing and researching "Too Many People Can Have Sex and Get Married." Wednesday, July 28, 2004
This is a must read story by Natalia Munoz from Monday's The Republican: When his turn came to speak at the community dialogue on the Iraq War, Staff Sgt. Jimmy Massey of the United States Marines Corps chewed his gum slowly and slowly scanned the 150 people in the audience.Nothing more needs to be said right now. Tuesday, July 27, 2004
Once again it appears that even pretending that the "war on terror" makes sense is too arduous for the Bush Administration Via tex of antiwar.com, we can all see that some terrorists are better than others. Here's the story... The MEK is a group dedicated to overthrowing the current regime of Iran. For its efforts, the State Department classifies the MEK as a terrorist group. If you believe the hype, Iran wants to kill us all, and so Uncle Sam has decided to grant "protected status" to the MEK. As a certain George W. Bush once said, "Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists." Since Bush is "leading America to victory," I can only conclude that the United States of America is with the terrorists.

Yeah! I'm back from a brief vacation during which I impersonated the world's many Elvis impersonators for a few minutes. This showed me that the American spirit is alive and well, which is more than could be said for blogger last Wednesday when I tried to post. Other than that, in all honesty, I took the vacation so that I could drop something off to my 31-year old niece. When I came to her apartment and was not let in after not knocking twice, I knocked the door down and found my unmarried niece fornicating with a man. Apparently reading Chick tracts to her didn't prevent my niece from becoming a slut. This terrible experience strengthened my belief that too many people can have sex and get married.

This is not a representative sample of the world wide web, but what would be? These certainly are not. Sunday, July 18, 2004
The Bush Administration remains determined, optimistic and focused on the duty given to it by God Himself (and not I'm not talking about keeping those people from being able to ruin the institution of marriage) Things are going so wonderful in Iraq that one could almost excuse the Bush Administration for forgetting about the dangers of the world. The sovereign Iraqi government is doing what it is told to do and sexually abused Iraqi boys may very well just be beginning to forgive their liberators, but Team Bush realizes that there are still people out there who need to be liberated, killed and/or prevented from attacking and killing the good people of the United States of America at any moment. Jenifer Johnston writes in the today's Sunday Herald: PRESIDENT George Bush has promised that if re-elected in November he will make regime change in Iran his new target.Conveniently the 9/11 Commission is about to report, in the words of Julian Coman from today's Telegraph, "that Iran, not Iraq, fostered relations with the al-Qa'eda network in the years leading up to the world's most devastating terrorist attack." But there's no need to kick ass like there was in Iraq just as there is no reason to think that if Iran is half as evil and dangerous as we are supposed to believe they are that Iran would respond to this by preemptively attacking the U.S. Nope, not at all, what the fuck would give you that idea? |
