We need to start kicking and keep on kicking, we have the bush* bastards

[madokie]

on the run and its way too shitting late to make nice. If we have any hope to survive this coup we are living we are going to have to take advantage of the day. bushes* numbers are low and dropping, dicks has fell through the floor, Iraq is a mess, New Orleans and the gulf still looks like a war zone for the most part, the press is starting to wake to the facts. Hell some of the dems have actually grown a spine, along with a few repukes.
If we have been waiting to pick the time for the fight, now would be it.

1. I'm present and accounted for sir/madamn!

2. That makes 5 of us then because my wife and stepson's are ready

too. Both of them are draft age and both are smart enough to know when the bushitler attacks Iran they will be heading there themselves. And neither of them have a bone in their bodys that want to hurt anything from the lowest bug to the meanest snake. I don't want them to witness war and what it does to a person, in no way did that experience help me.

3. You can number it six.

I can't run, but I can hobble at a smart pace. I'll pummel 'em with my walking stick if it comes to it.

4. You got it. Today is my 58th birthday and I'm going out and clear

some brush, no really. My tools of choice today will be my sawblade equiped weedeater and a chair to set my old ass in from time to time. Going to be another beautiful day here and can't keep myself in the house much longer. The blackberry vines are calling my name as I type now.
But seriously we do need to jump on this imposter of a prez and keep the pressure on. I believe history will see this bush* era as an attempted coup. And if we don't do something now a completed coup.

5. Alas, the flesh is willing but is also on another continent.

But I can shout loud encouragements...

6. I love hearing loud encouragements

I guess my wife has me conditioned for the loud part, just kidding

9. Hi Chris ~ welcome to DU ~

I saw that yesterday and it is heart-breaking ~

From your link:

The book tells the tale in real-time: a view from the ground as it was happening, before the inevitable spin, revisionist history and public amnesia set in. It draws on the controversial weekly column he writes for The Moscow Times, the English-daily in Russia, and its sister paper, The St Petersburg Times. It also includes columns written for the leading American political journal, CounterPunch, as well as occasional pieces for The Ecologist in the UK, where he is a regular contributor, and The Nation, the Christian Science Monitor, Columbia Journalism Review and many others.

Woven together with new material to provide context and narrative continuity, the columns paint what he believes is a unique portrait of a vitally important historical process: the degradation of the American Republic, beginning here with the grim farce of Bush's appointment in the 2000 election and ending with the latest stories of atrocity, mayhem and fatal incompetence in Iraq. Although the subject matter is often grim, the pieces are written in vibrant prose, combining the urgency of journalism with an essayist's feel for language, mixing humour, satire, outrage and passion.

Yet the book is not simply a jeremiad of partisan opinionating. It is rigorously fact-based, based on reputable, mainstream sources – although it uses the information gleaned from these sources to cut through the conventional wisdom and obfuscation, which they themselves so often convey. There is also a good deal of historical background to provide a deeper understanding of the whirlwind of current events.

I didn't find the title of the book ~ and are you the same Chris Floyd? If so, thank you for your work ~ this looks like a book all Americans need to read.

:hi:
