John McCain: Worse than Bush?

Let us create a hypothetical situation: The President of the United States goes to a foreign country and attempts to kneecap members of an opposing U.S. party. Yes, to celebrate Israel's 60th anniversary our leader would give a completely irrelevant speech about how members of the Democratic party were of course Nazis. Now, speaking hypothetically, telling a group of people, who happen to be Jewish, that the second incarnation of Hitler is about to be elected would amount to... Fear mongering?

No, just being an asshole. Is George W. Bush so self absorbed that he really thought Israelites gave a shit about our elections? I mean when they are celebrating 60 years of struggling to be a nation? Well apparently, he was giving them the heads up so if the "Nazi" Democrats were elected Israel could do something about it. Like, attack us or something? This hypothetical was a reality that happened over a week ago. I still cannot make heads or tails of what point the President was getting at. It was like watching a thesis paper presentation, given by a fourth-grade special ed student on Israeli relations. Israel = Jewish... Jewish people don't like Hitler. I don't like Democrats. Democrats = Nazis. DONE!

Actually, my fiancé just informed me her third-grade special ed students are smarter than the President.

If President Bush can waltz into other countries and slander the Democratic party I don't see what is so wrong with pointing out the gross hypocrisy coming from the Republican nominee, John McCain. And I won't be committing libel, because the shit I will say is true. Actually, because I'm lazy I will let a nice little film by Robert Greenwald do it for me. If you do not know who Mr. Greenwald is, you better learn quickly. He makes excellent fact-based (really rare) documentaries. He wears the iron-heeled boot of ass-kicking truth.

A Comparison: Bush vs. bin Laden

I was just thinking the other day about Keith Olbermann's comments regarding Bush's "sacrifice." I realized how similar Mr. Bush and Osama bin Laden really are. So I figured I would provide a short comparison:

George W. Bush

1. Religious? Yes.
2. Thinks his mission is from a higher power? Yes.
   
3. Listens to religious authority to make decisions? Yes.
4. Misinterprets religious texts? Yes.
   
5. Lead the killing of thousands of innocent people? Yes.
6. Connected with the bin Laden family? Yes.
7. Hates Saddam? Yes.
8. Ego complex? Yes.
9. Used 9-11 to bolster his career? Yes.
10. Stupid? Yes.
11. Revered by a blind few? Yes.
12. Loathed by the majority? Yes.

Osama bin Laden

1. Religious? Yes.
2. Thinks his mission is from a higher power? Yes.
   
3. Listens to religious authority to make decisions? Yes.

5. Lead the killing of thousands of innocent people? Yes.
6. Connected with the bin Laden family? Yes.
7. Hates Saddam? Yes.
8. Ego complex? Yes.
9. Used 9-11 to bolster his career? Yes.
10. Stupid? No. DAMN!
    
11. Revered by a blind few? Yes.
12. Loathed by the majority? Yes.

Thank You Mr. Bush

Dear Mr. Bush,

You are an absolute disgrace to our country. Not just that you are a disgrace as an American, as a human. Words cannot express exactly how I feel.

So fuck you,
Crevan

P.S. Keith Olbermann can actually articulate his feelings and he does so much better than I could ever.

What West Virginia Means

It looks as if Hillary Clinton will take the state of West Virginia by a dominating margin, nothing short of a landslide. This will not give her the delegates necessary to beat Obama and will not improve her nothing-short-of-a-miracle chance. West Virginia is simply an excuse for Hillary Clinton to stay in the race. Mrs. Clinton and her supporters will make the argument that no Democrat has won the Presidency without West Virginia since 1916. Because those blue-collar types won't vote for a Muslim.

Score one more point for the right-wing spin machine. Somehow, someway, Democrats need to figure out how to spin things against their opponents in a convenient fashion. Not only do people think Barack Obama is a Muslim, but they are angry over comments his Christian preacher made. Talk about having your cake and eating it too.

Well, back to Hillary. The writing is practically on the wall something along the lines of, "You lost, Bitch." All she can successfully do now is continue to drive a stake between members of one party, make Obama spend more, and practically give the election to John McCain. Obama outspent Hillary in Pennsylvania in the hopes of ending her campaign. He failed, this means as we get towards Denver, he will have to spend more to keep fighting her. Which in turn means he will have less money to fight John McCain.

We need to realize that no matter who wins the nomination the right-wing attack dogs will go after them with everything they have. Our job is to fight back and, if need be, sling some shit of our own. Like how McCain left his wife for Cindy Lou Hensley and married into extraordinary wealth. Marrying into wealth... Was that not the exact criticism of John Kerry? Hopefully we do not see a "POWs for Truth" against McCain. Have some decency and honor.

Liberals and Democrats have this inane tendency to think they are more justified because they are more victimized. Hillary should win because, "We need a woman" or "She's got more experience." Whatever your reasoning, she has not won. It's over, it's time to forget being a President and remember to be a Democrat.

Fuck It

Fuck it, it's my attitude. Has been for the last few years now. I just can't stand up to the insurmountable amount of bullshit and ignorance. This is my little experiment. Will it fail? Of course it won't. Maybe. Okay, it will probably be a total failure. But does anyone really care? Surely not Bill O'Reilly or my personal hero Rush Limpdick... Limbaugh. I certainly care. I cared enough to do something crazy like join the ACLU. I haven't gotten it tattooed on my dick yet, but progress pending.

I'll give you a short biography oh who I am, where this coming from, and just how much I am going to offend you. I grew up with a limited mindset, truly conservative if you will. It was not my parents fault, it would be fun to blame them, but they are truly great human beings. If I ever turn out to be a decent human being they get all the credit. And my fiancé, but she can be a bitch. No. I truly believed that homosexuality was an abomination. I was "straight-edge" (i.e. pussy). Sex before marriage? Never. The whole line of conservative ideological belief was my own. Then somewhere along the way I got a clue and grew the fuck up.

I used to be moderate. Then I became a completely unapologetic liberal. I've been told I can be polarizing. I believe the definition of that word is, "you mean I'm right and don't want to admit it." It also mean I can be an asshole, or am one, depending on who you are. This I know. For your future sake, I apologize.

There are many reasons why, but mainly I'm just pissed off. I've grown and learned to hone that anger. At the end of the day, I think I'm most angered by the fact that "liberal" is a dirty word. I'm proud to be a liberal. I think more liberals need to be proud of their political philosophy and heritage, rather than shy away from the term. I seek a journey of definition and compelling reasons to turn sinistro. I hope through this journey however short, criticisms abound, my writing improves, and so do my political beliefs.

With a final thought, Eric Alterman writes in his new book Why We're Liberals, "As the party of 'militant liberalism' FDR declared, Democrats would deploy the U.S. government to 'protect its people against once considered inevitable, to solve problems once considered unsolvable.'" In short, Adidas stole the "Impossible is nothing" notion from liberals.

Sapere Aude!
