A Sad Day in American History

The mood around the city was very somber yesterday. People looked shocked and bewildered, as though trying to make sense out of how things could have gone so wrong. But there is no mystery as to what happened. The Christians put him back in office.

Despite the fact that George Bush lied to the American people about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq,
Despite the fact that he lied to us about Iraqi links to Al Qaeda,
Despite the fact that he lied to us repeatedly about conditions in Iraq, including the Abu Grahib prison scandal,
Despite the fact that he continues to tell us that he has made America and the world a safer place when terrorist attacks worldwide have increased,
Despite the fact that his administration’s planning for the war in Iraq was, at best, incompetent, in that we didn't have enough soldiers on the ground to do the job, we didn't have the proper body armor/equipment armor, we never secured the borders thereby allowing thousands of foreign terrorist fighters to stream into Iraq,
Despite the fact that this president has made America a laughingstock among the nations to the point where we are so alienated in the world that no one really wants to help us, at all, to do anything,
Despite the fact that American energy policy was developed in closed-door sessions exclusively with cronies and friends,
Despite the fact that George Bush had the interests of the Saudi Royal Family in mind over the interests of the American people after the 9/11 attacks, when he let a whole planeload of Osama bin Laden's family leave American airspace,
Despite these and many other things, the Christians with their myopic world view, have put George Bush back in office because, by god, we can't have the faggots getting married and we damn sure can't have women in charge of their own bodies.

But hey, I'm not bitter, and if you ask, I'll tell you how I really feel....

Donald Rumsfeld on CNN

8:15AM Pacific Time: Sittin here watchin Wolf interview Rummy on Late Edition, and Rummy is talking about why it's not a good idea to pull out of Iraq right now. He's talking about, and I paraphrase, "If we establish a timeline for pull-out, then we're telling the insurgents that they only have to wait until we're gone, and if we do that, they will wait, and then unleash a blood bath when we're gone." Goddamit, I hate it when I have to agree with one of these trolls. But, sadly, no matter how much we hate the Bush administration, truth, from any source is still truth. And the truth is, the insurgents will wait, and they will unleash a blood-bath. What Rummy doesn't say is, all that will be our fault. I have to say it, though it pains me to do so, I do think it's irresponsible to call for an immediate troop withdrawal from Iraq, because of what I said above. I believe that what the democrats need to keep harping on is the fact that pre-war intell...

How Boring

OK, so I decided that I wasn't going to write anything political, that I was just gonna write about personal stuff. And I haven't written a thing in two weeks. How boring is my life? But I've got some stuff coming.....

Away Too Long

I know...I know, its been far too long since my last post. But I'm here now and I'll catch you up on everything. So, since getting laid-off, I have been thinking about going back to school. The thing is, I've been thinking about going back for 10 years, but the thought of it always filled me with terror because I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do. Well, I decided to go to Seattle Central and get a certificate in computer networking. My thinking is this: get certified in something that leads to working smart instead of hard. Then, that job can take me back to school for something I really want to do. So anyway, there is a program through Unemployment Insurance called the Commissioner Approved Training Plan that allows one to go to school while still recieving one's unemployment benefits, without having to do the weekly job searches. The program doesn't pay for school, it just allows one to go to school and not have to work. Sounds like a great program, huh?...
