Hunter Thompson, 2003: "Who are these ... flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush?"

opol has a good diary up on daily kos from which i stole this unwaveringly truthful quote from my hero...

"Who are these Swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? ..... They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character.... I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck Them."

"But wow! This goofy child president we have on our hands now. He is demonstrably a fool and a failure, and this is only the summer of '03. The American nation is in the worst condition I can remember in my lifetime, and our prospects for the immediate future are even worse. . . The Bush family must be very proud of themselves today, but I am not. Big Darkness, soon come. Take my word for it."

"The utter collapse of this Profoundly criminal Bush conspiracy will come none too soon for people like me.... The massive plundering of the U.S. Treasury and all its resources has been almost on a scale that is criminally insane, and has literally destroyed the lives of millions of American people and American families. Exactly. You and me, sport— we are the ones who are going to suffer, and suffer massively. This is going to be just like the Book of Revelation said it was going to be— the end of the world as we knew it."

"These horrifying digital snapshots of the American dream in action on foreign soil are worse than anything even I could have expected. I have been in this business a long time and I have seen many staggering things, but this one is over the line. Now I am really ashamed to carry an American passport."

"America... just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable."

~ Hunter S. Thompson

Three possible reasons why Feingold and other Congressional folks are not acting

opol over at daily kos voices three key possibilities why our senators and members of congress aren't in high dudgeon* over the crimes committed by our president and his compadres...

1) Bush has used the government spying apparatus to dig up dirt on all or most of the Democrats and is blackmailing them into submission. 2) Elements of Bushco have threatened the lives of anyone who gets out of line (remember the anthrax attacks on Daschle and Leahy?).

My third theory is that Democrats hunger for the powers Bush has stolen for the Presidency, and so don’t want to rein him in.

I believe that all three of these theories are true to some extent but whatever the final explanation is the fact remains that we the people are out of luck. No one is thinking about us.

he also expresses his profound astonishment and dismay that russ feingold, of all people, isn't demanding the ouster of bush and cheney and all their running dogs... i agree and, in fact, after receiving senator feingold's email announcing his censure motions, i wrote him and told him just how terribly disappointed i am...

opol concludes with this, to which i can only say, absolutely...!

Brothers and sisters, it’s time to impeach the President and his criminal minions. It is the only way to restore democracy, it is the only way to redeem our nation, and it is the only way to reclaim our country.

Don't let the politicians stall for time! Don't let them run out the clock! WE are the one's who are getting screwed!

Do your part! Stand up for America!

it's clearly in our hands now... nobody on a white horse is going to ride in and save the day...

Function: noun

Take the time to read this

seriously... opol (one pissed off liberal), one of my very favorite rant specialists, has a diary up at daily kos that captures the very essence of the critical pass we are at in the united states... he tells it like it is and anyone seriously concerned with our future direction in this country needs to pay close attention...

teaser...

And when the ‘authorities’ start reporting al Qaeda in the house, and Chertoff starts talking about his guts, for my money it’s time to start watching for the false flag. These miserable fucks are up to no good.
