I'm White, I'm Right, I Love to Kill (Moose)

Bullwinkle, beware. A foxy girl with a high tech rifle feels entitled to kill you. She's a perfect choice for warrior McCain, who feels we should have gone into Iraq AND Iran long before we did. Making war is his métier. Same old story - it's your money but his toys. (He is apparently unaffected by all the "collateral damage" he caused in the city of Hanoi as an Air Force pilot.)


I was personally ashamed of all the gushing praise from the mainstream media, including NPR, of Sarah Palin. Any questions of the wisdom of her as a choice for the vice commander-in-chief are considered unfair attacks of the "elite, left coast media". Yet the vicious, nonsensical rebuttals from these smug, self-satisfied candidates continued to intimidate the media. You thought the Bush/Cheney arrogance and secrecy were intolerable. You might well be going to jail under McCain/Palin if you dare have an opinion outside official doctrine.

Take a listen:


What is it about the people with money and personality disorders? They think anything they say is sacrosanct, and how dare you have another opinion! That's the oligarchy speaking, the bullying of a dying military-industrial complex, the last gasping breath of the angry white men of America, the self-entitled looters of the U.S. treasury, the folks who privatize profits but socialize the costs. The Ugly Americans of the 1950's have returned, in spades.

Unfortunately, the future of our country is in the hands of the undecided voters, the voters who are disconnected from any real skills of independent evaluation, the folks whose values have been programmed by the commercial culture they feel lost without. Yet one more bad choice by the "undecided" will certainly send us into oblivion.

Dump Verizon and AT&T

(Yes, this is a shamless ad, but please read on.)
Congress voted today to give immunity to the telecom companies that cooperated with the administration on the secret and illegal FISA wiretaps. One company stood apart and refused -
CREDO Mobile:

• When the ACLU sued the National Security Agency over warrantless wiretapping, CREDO joined with an amicus brief — the only phone company to do so.
• AT&T's Political Action Committee contributed the maximum amount allowable by law to the Bush/Cheney campaign — twice. CREDO has given $60 million to progressive nonprofits like Planned Parenthood, Earthjustice and Iraq Vets Against the War.
• Verizon tried to block NARAL Pro-Choice America's text messages, calling them "unsavory." CREDO supports text messaging for progressive causes through our Mobile Action program.
• AT&T has censored criticism of Bush during a concert webcast. CREDO fights for net neutrality as a member of the Save the Internet Coalition.

If you like what CREDO Mobile is doing, dump the underwriters of the vicious Right and join CREDO. Your telecom money will be doing good work, for once.

Make the switch now, and they'll buy out your existing contract and give you a nice phone.
