In Memoriam -- 60 years later |
|
Please read the little cartoon carefully, it's powerful. Then read the comments at the end. I'm doing my small part by forwarding this message. I hope you'll consider doing the same. In Memoriam 
| | It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900 Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved and humiliated with the German and Russian Peoples looking the other way!
Are we Americans looking the other way? The war crimes of President Bush and Vice President Cheney through their "Bush/Cheney" war against Iraq should keep the Holocaust in our minds daily. No, you're wrong--There is a similarity. They lied. They wanted power. They wanted to take over an entire people/land for their own gain. They didn't care about the loss of lives, limbs and minds of our American Soldiers; the devastation to the lives of their families and friends; the losses to the many allied troops that supported this deceitful war. They didn't care about the loss of thousands of lives of the innocent Iraqi people... and we sat and listend to our news and watched as we were being manipulated, the war justified and selfishly orchestrated through a continuous barrage of lies and deceipt to the American people fed to us by America's top brass fiction writers and we continue to look the other way--Have we forgotten the Holocaust? Are American's afraid to look at our own president and hold him responsible? That is not UNAMERICAN it is as American as the Constitution. Every American should be responsible and accountable for their deliberate actions and misdeeds, especially the President and Vice President. All Americans should be angry and feel betrayed by this disgusting excuse for and misrepresentation of Democracy. When you are afraid to speak up as an American then you should be afraid to be an American. (cma) And now with Iran , among others, claiming the Holocaust to be "a myth," it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets what enormous devastation of humanity can be created by leaders with too much ego or power or who are just too stupid to see beyond their own agenda -- because there are others who would like to do it again. |

John McCain (This is a great read)From Dickipedia - A Wiki of Dicks
John Sidney McCain III (born August 29, 1936) is the senior United States Senator from Arizona, the presumptive Republican Party nominee in the 2008 presidential election, an angry old man, and a dick. In the Republican Party, there are two kinds of dicks: those that support the Iraq War but were too cowardly to fight in a war when they had the chance, and, much less common, those that support the Iraq War and did fight in other wars when they had the chance. McCain is the latter kind of dick. During the Vietnam War, McCain became a naval aviator. In a bombing mission over North Vietnam in 1967, he was shot down and badly injured. He endured five and a half years as a prisoner of war, including periods of torture, before he was released following the Paris Peace Accords in 1973. This raises the question: can one be a hero while at the same time being a dick. The answer, as McCain has shown, is: yes. In 1982, McCain was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, and in 1986, he was elected to the U.S. Senate. During his years in the Senate, McCain has essentially been an unthinking, run-of-the-mill right-winger. He managed to establish a reputation, however, as a "maverick" who often "defied orthodoxy." That this is true is testament to the high incidence of dicks in the media, an occupation generally considered to have among the highest of DPRs (dick prevalence rate). In the late 1980's, McCain became one of the "Keating Five." Some have noted that this sounds like a band. And to the extent that taking payoffs from corrupt savings and loans officials, passing legislation that deregulated the industry and destroyed thousands of lives, and intervening in the investigation of said corrupt savings and loan officials is like playing music, then, yes, they were a band. A very good one. In order to salvage his career, McCain recreated himself as a campaign-finance reformer. Because of a defect in the media, McCain succeeded. In 2002, the largely useless McCain-Feingold Act was passed. McCain ran for the Republican nomination in the 2000 presidential election, but was defeated by another dick, George W. Bush. In the 2008 presidential cycle, McCain was joined in the race by a lazy dick, a Mormon dick, a evangelical dick, a libertarian former gynecologist dick and a dick named Giuliani. After the Mormon dick dropped out in February of 2008, McCain became the presumptive nominee. Read more here |

Our Co-opted Military "NYT Article" |
|
In the summer of 2005, the Bush administration confronted a fresh wave of criticism over Guantánamo Bay. The detention center had just been branded “the gulag of our times” by Amnesty International, there were new allegations of abuse from United Nations human rights experts and calls were mounting for its closure. The administration’s communications experts responded swiftly. Early one Friday morning, they put a group of retired military officers on one of the jets normally used by Vice President Dick Cheney and flew them to Cuba for a carefully orchestrated tour of Guantánamo. To the public, these men are members of a familiar fraternity, presented tens of thousands of times on television and radio as “military analysts” whose long service has equipped them to give authoritative and unfettered judgments about the most pressing issues of the post-Sept. 11 world.

MY SUBMISSION TO IRREVERENT VIEW.org |
|
To all you snarky Tucker Carlson, David Brooks, George Will, Republican types out there, I say, "take heed". Backing a man, the likes of John McCain, just in an attempt to be able to say "We won again", will not only NOT feather your nests further, but will in fact cut down the tree in which your nest resides. He is a multi flawed choice, not the least of reasons being, his stance on the military. While claiming to love the military, and all who serve in it, he shows not the slightest clue of understanding, as to how to perpetuate it's viability. Instead he flips on torture, will not back a GI Bill that would aid their well being, shows little understanding as to the route causes of this bogus "War on Terror", and would, in perpetuity, further put our asses in hock to China prosecuting this hegemonic crusade.
