They massacre Democrats, don't they?
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 09:48 PM by Jim Sagle
In the last century, our Republican oppressors killed or tried to kill their Democratic enemies one by one: Kennedy, King, Kennedy, Kennedy, Carnahan, Wellstone, Daschle, Leahy. While effective in quelling meaningful opposition, such half-measures are insufficient if the population is to be terrorized into giving up its middle-class existence.

Thus the planned murder of New Orleans and its citizenry. Thus the "neglect" and the "delays". Thus the "accidental" display of guitar-playing, cake-eating, fundraising, golf-playing contempt from our "President."

There is nothing accidental about any of it. The message is clear, and it's the same message it's always been, just much more explicitly delivered:

"Vote Republican or we'll kill you."

1. On the nosie!
"If you want any government aid while we're in charge, you better have voted for us"

So now everyone has to ask at the voting booth, "Do I vote for a dem, with the hope that enough others vote dem that a dem is actually elected so we aren't fucked in an emergency; or do I hedge all my bets and vote republican"

2. No.
Now everyone says "That monster Bush really IS a criminal. Let's impeach him! And all his crony pals, too!"

3. Will the media allow that message to resonate, or will they smother it?
