Paul Craig Roberts should just chill, it's only the CONSTITUTION

he's getting shrill again...

The media is silent, Congress is absent, and Americans are distracted as George W. Bush openly prepares aggression against Iran.

US Navy aircraft carrier strike forces are deployed off Iran.

US Air Force jets and missile systems are deployed in bases in countries bordering or near to Iran.

US B-2 stealth bombers have been refitted to carry 30,000 pound "bunker buster" bombs.

The US government is financing terrorist and separatist groups within Iran.

US Special Forces teams are conducting terrorist operations inside Iran.

US war doctrine has been altered to permit first strike nuclear attack on Iran and other non-nuclear countries.

Bush's war threats against Iran have intensified during the course of this year. The American people are being fed a repeat of the lies used to justify naked aggression against Iraq.

golly gee... what's "distracting" us...?

Meanwhile the US media focuses on whether Republican Senator Larry Craig is a homosexual or has offended gays by denying to be one of them. The run-up for the public's attention is why a South Carolina beauty queen cannot answer a simple question about why her generation is unable to find the United States on a map.

oh... THAT... but, doggone it, sex in public toilets is just so FASCINATING, so TITILLATING, so, so... and being able to poke fun at a dumb blonde... i mean, how AMERICAN can you get...? isn't that kind of thing what we watch all those reality shows for...? c'mon, roberts... lighten up... it's the dog days of summer, fercryinoutloud... oh... what's that you say...?

Whatever form of government Bush is operating under, it is far outside an accountable constitutional democratic government. Bush has transitioned America to caesarism, and even if Bush leaves office in January 2009, the powers he has accumulated in the executive will remain. Unless Bush and Cheney are impeached and convicted, there is no prospect of the US Congress and federal judiciary ever again being co-equal branches of government.

there we go with that CONSTITUTION business again... what're we s'posed to do about it...? i mean, what's gonna happen is gonna happen, right...? no use getting all hot and bothered about something we can't do anything about anyway... which reminds me, i need to go get another cuppa coffee...

p.s. please note... i believe this post is the first time larry craig has been mentioned on this blog...
