    On Simple Human Decency (Harpers.org)

    I hardly mean to imply that George W. Bush is a delusional party hack whose aim is to rob and mislead us for the benefit of his friends. That idea deserves to be stated outright: George W. Bush is a delusional party hack whose aim is to rob and mislead us for the benefit of his friends.

    Diebold, Electronic Voting and the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy

    Diebold, located in North Canton, Ohio, does its primary business in ATM and ticket-vending machines. Critics of Diebold point out that virtually every other machine the company makes provides a paper trail to verify the machine

    The Case for Impeachment

    Before reading the report, I wouldn’t have expected to find myself thinking that such a course of action was either likely or possible; after reading the report, I don’t know why we would run the risk of not impeaching the man. We have before us in the White House a thief who steals the country’s good name and reputation for his private interest and personal use; a liar who seeks to instill in the American people a state of fear; a televangelist who engages the United States in a never-ending crusade against all the world’s evil, a wastrel who squanders a vast sum of the nation’s wealth on what turns out to be a recruiting drive certain to multiply the host of our enemies. In a word, a criminal

    Saddam Hussein is a Tyrant and a Threat to Democracy and Deserves Removal from the Presidency for His Litany of Unjust and Barbaric Crimes

    Saddam Hussein’s intolerable use of weapons of mass destruction against enemies; unprecedented aggression against and occupation of a country which posed no threat to his own; routine kidnapping, torture, murder and secret prison system; wholesale slaughter of citizens from other countries; imprisonment of political rivals held for years without charges; and secret spying on his very own countrymen without court order or legislative approval, demonstrates beyond a reasonable doubt that this so-called “President” was a dangerous rogue, a tyrant, and a grave threat—of the highest order—to worldwide peace, stability and democracy.
    His immediate removal from unelected power was…and is…a completely justified imperative.

    Angry and Furious at the Collaborationist Democrats | The Huffington Post

    For me, Paul Wellstone was the last bastion of decency in congress. I don’t know why, or how, but the Bushies have managed to turn washington into something very, very wrong. It might just be rancor, but I can’t think of one good thing that’s been accomplished the last five years. And surely whatever little good has been done was also grossly countered by all the shit that’s happened.

    Politics in their current form need to get lost, completely and entirely. I’ve really lost all faith in our government.

    In truth, Pelosi, Rockefeller, and the New York Times collaborated with Bush for four years to ignore the Constitution. No one did anything on behalf of the millions of Americans being surveyed. At the end of the day, no one tried to stop it or even examine it. That says a great deal about our politicians’ commitment to democracy and the Constitution.

    Now I’m sure there are some perfectly decent democrats out there. I volunteered for the Mark Dayton campaign in 2000. He seemed a good guy. Sure, he’s rich as all hell (I think he spent 2 million on his campaign). But he hasn’t been able to get anything done in washington at all, and he’s frustrated and calling it quits after one term.

    Republicans cheated in the 2004 election

    the floor under the legitimacy of their alleged election to the White House is crumbling.

    It’s stunning, but it seems that the result of both the 2000 and the 2004 presidential elections were illegitimate. George Bush should never have made it into the White House.

    Key Bush Intelligence Briefing Kept From Hill Panel

    What the President was told on September 21, was consistent with everything he has been told since-that the evidence was just not there. one former high-level official

    He was told that there was absolutely no connection between Al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein. What?

    You can’t distinguish between Al Qaeda and Saddam when you talk about the war on terror. Bush, 9/25/2002

    Tortured men look like 'Holocaust victims'

    Witnesses said many of the 169 men and youths were emaciated and looked like “Holocaust survivors”. Some had suffered beatings so severe that their skin had peeled off, and three men had been kept locked in a cupboard where they could not move. All the others were packed, blindfolded, into three rooms nine feet long and 11 feet wide. Kim Sengupta

    It's Fighting Words

    They call it flip-flopping, but how about owning up to your mistakes. How about changing course when you’ve been proven wrong? There is nothing honorable about defending a bad decision. The GOP point to how the senators and congressmen believed, as the administration did, that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction. But that intelligence came from the executive branch and when the intelligence is wrong the executive branch is responsible for it. Stephen Elliott

    Evidence Mounts That The Vote May Have Been Hacked

    In Dixie County, with 9,676 registered voters, 77.5% of them Democrats and a mere 15% registered as Republicans, only 1,959 people voted for Kerry, but 4,433 voted for Bush.
    The pattern repeats over and over again – but only in the counties where optical scanners were used.

    The biggest story of our lives

    And he most certainly was [Kerry, winning], at least if the votes had been fairly and legally counted. What happened instead was the biggest crime in the history of the nation, and the collective media silence which has followed is the greatest fourth-estate failure ever on our soil.

    The silence of traditional media on this subject is enough to establish their newfound bankruptcy. The revolution will have to start here.

    DrugReporter: Bush and Blow

    The reason corporate America backed Bush Sr. is because “he’ll do whatever the big boys want. And so will his son.”

    When asked about censorship, Bush replied that there “ought to be limits to freedom” when it comes to criticizing him personally.

    You get close to, and turn up something bad on Karl Rove, that will get you killed right there. Mr. Fly, an unnamed source

    Bush is a lying disgusting criminal fuckwit scumbag.
