Can you believe it? The Loonies recently held a meeting in which they discussed, seriously, how to take over the judiciary. Some suggested simply minor remedies for uncooperate judges, such as impeachments, even mass impeachments. Others seemed to suggest more drastic measures, such as killing them. Why are they so upset? Because some of the judges simply won't unconstitutionally rule in their favor. Curiously enough, most of the judges at issue were actually appointed by either Ronald Reagon or George Bush the First. Where are Genghis Khan and Joseph Stalin when we need them? Some say the Republicans, at least the Republicans in charge, may have overstepped their bounds his time, and perhaps they will have to pay the consequences for their extremism. There is no doubt they have overstepped their bounds. There is no reason to believe they will have to pay for it. Democrats don't seem to care. The public doesn't seem to care. No on seems to care. Hey, it's just politics as usual.
In our local paper the other day there was a cartoon that I think may sum up the problem. Two men in a bar having a beer. One of them says, "I used to get upset about politics, but then I discovered the miracle of apathy." The American public has adopted the miracle of apathy. No doubt about it. How else can you explain that a small band of war criminals has managed to lie us into an unnecessary "war," destroyed the budgetary surplus we had, destroyed the value of the dollar, increased uemployment, forced more and more Americans into poverty, systematically attacked the environment, illegally hold prisoners around the world, torture them, and claim they are above the law, refuse to do anything about our disastrous medical care system, spend outrageous sums of money on defense systems that don't work, violate the constitutional separation of church and state, relegate our educational institutions to nothing more than busy work, refuse to acknowledge science as opposed to superstition, destroy whatever international reputation we may have ever had, and god knows what all else.
Let's face it, the fascists are now in almost complete control of our nation. And some say here is nothing we can do about it. There may be something we can do before it is absolutely too late - but everyone has to WAKE UP!!! This is the most dishonest, greedy, short-sighted, secretive, evil administration in the history of our nation. We are being led by a small group of lying, evil, disgusting war criminals. Pretending to pray for the Pope doesn't cut it. Pretending to promote a "culture of life" on the part of this administration is carrying hypocrisy to entirely unprecedented levels. For the first time in my life I believe in the admonishion, "stop the world, I want to get off."
