The obvious: nothing will overturn the Bush "win," but it would be nice for all of those who value uh . . . what's it called . . . oh yea, the truth . . . to know more about how, exactly, the Bush people stole the election in Ohio, at least. How many years down the road, if at all, will we have to wait for the full story about these stolen elections to be told, and how much later until a majority of Americans are aware of this? About as much time as it took for a majority of Americans to know that American foreign policy has, in reality and in contradiction to a million speeches and official stances, brutally repressed actual democratic movements all over the world?
Barbara Walters: the pinnacle of mainstream ignorance. Last night when interviewing Will Ferrell, the subject of Bush came up and either before Will was about to say something or he did say something derogatory about Bush and they cut it out, she says, "Oh come on now, he just got re-elected." Like she's admonishing a dirty child.
Barbara, what the fuck do you know? In response to her question, "What superpower would you have?" here is my answer: "If I could have any superpower . . . if I could have any superpower, Barbara, I would choose the superpower to touch the ground of any country I was in and voila: from that moment on there would always be free and fair elections in that country. I would visit every country in the world with that power, but I would start here, in the United States of America."
And then somehow, I would use the line, "I'm just a girl from a trailer park with big dreams." Because that's a great line. It's a line that invokes Horatio Alger and makes Clint Eastwood cry. Huzza. the revolution will be sensualized by Dr. Menlo2/28/2005 11:45:00 AM
We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world--a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us . . . No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we'll kill you.
Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid rich kids like George Bush?
They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers among us--they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis.
And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck them.

"There are many people in this city who think I'm going to be very unorthodox," Dean said Wednesday. "And I am."

"We need to be proud to be Democrats," he said. "It was the Democrats who thought we should have a Homeland Security Department. If you want strong national security, you ought to support the Democratic Party."
His new job, he said, would be to sell the Democratic Party in local, state and national elections.
"We're not going to beat the Republicans by talking about how terrible they are," he said. " ... This is a party that's about the future. The Republican Party is about the past." [more]
. . . yes, and per Lakoff, we are progressives as opposed to them being regressives.
Three cheers for Dean!
This is a great step for our side . . . now if we can only do away with those paperless voting machines . . .
. . . does this mean that there is hope, finally? Can we get out from under our blankets yet and get back to work? Can we pause on the applications for political asylum to Canada and wait and see what Dean will do? Consider me buoyed. the revolution will be sensualized by Dr. Menlo2/12/2005 10:56:00 AM
I propose that we declare this year's Summer Solstice, Tuesday June 21, 2005, to be Moving Day. Whereupon longtime Democrats such as myself, on one day and en masse, move to a party that has the set of values and principles that the Democrat party not only used to stand for, but used to successfully fight for, both on the legislative floor AND in the hearts and minds of the American people.
It is time that we joined the Green party, bringing to it the sheer numbers of people it now lacks to wield significant political power, and begin the long journey of creating a world that will be better and sustainable for generations hence. [more]
