Tyrants make themselves out to be fearless and all-powerful.
But they are really cowards.
For example:
- Virtually all of the neocon warmongers are chickenhawks who dodged service to their country
- When the mother of a dead soldier showed up at Bush's ranch, he was too cowardly to even meet her
- Current Attorney General Mukasey - who is stomping on the rule of law and trying to prop up dictatorship as fast as he can - literally collapsed when a judge called him a "tyrant" at a public event
- Former AG Alberto Gonzales - who did the same as Mukasey - whines that he can't find a job: “for some reason, I am portrayed as the one who is evil in formulating policies that people disagree with. I consider myself a casualty, one of the many casualties of the war on terror.”
- Hank Paulson - the financial dictator who unilaterally has decided who who is getting trillions in government bailouts, refuses to disclose the names to anyone (including to the Congressional oversight committee for the bailout or in response to media lawsuits), and who arbitrarily changed laws without the consent of Congress - is crying about not having enough tools to work with
- Mastermind of many nefarious crimes Karl Rove snivels that Bush-haters were responsible for ruining Bush's reputation
- Former Navy Judge Advocate General Admiral John Hutson said of the Bush torture program: "Torture is the technique of choice of the . . . pseudo-tough.”
As R. Eddington wrote:
When I was a young boy, I was always taught "scratch a bully, find a coward". And here we have not one but two cowards at the head of the current administration. One of which - when it was his turn to offer his military service to his country - ran and hid in the Texas Air National Guard (complete military records NOT available upon asking!) and another who got at least FIVE deferments so he wouldn't have to bring his sorry behind to Vietnam.
Scratch a tyrant, find a coward.
On the other hand, real men stand up to tyrants.
Gee, it is such a shame that Alberto Gonzales cannot find a job.
ReplyDeleteNOT
I have a job in mind for every one mentioned in this post. Taking applications for rope stretch tester. May the hangman get them all
ReplyDeleteRegarding Hank Paulson and his secrecy, that's the nature of the beast. The Federal Reserve is a private banking cartel. Congress gives them the authority to print $700 billion,and the Fed can spend it how it wants without accountability. The federal Reserve needs to be abolished.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Gary I have just the job for Alberto.
ReplyDeleteThese particular toilets don't get used that often ...but we can fix that.
Senator Larry Craig could be organised to drop by from time to time.
To Stell: Hank Paulson is Secretary of the Treasury and is part of the government. So, he is accountable to Congress, Congress can care less since it is only the tax payers money being spent. "Helicopter Ben" Ben Bernanke is "Federal Reserve" Chairman and operates without much oversight even though his policies can bankrupt tens of millions of Americans. I think you should go a little deeper in your thought when you recommend what should be abolished.
ReplyDeleteAnthony, thanks for your response. However, the Federal Reserve is not part of our government; it's a private banking cartel. It was established in 1913, by the Federal Reserve Act, also known as the Glass-Owen Bill. Congress gave the Fed the authority to print $700 billion dollars, but the Fed can spend it any way it wants to, i.e. there is no oversight. If you are familiar with Ron Paul and have access to some of his YouTube videos, he does a great job of explaining the secretsy of the Federal Reserve.

ReplyDeleteYou're out of your fucking mind. Slap some cold water on your face and get your head straight. You've probably been able to ramble on like this throughout the entire Bush presidency, during seven years of domestic tranquility, and two just wars that saw deposed tyrants and a modicum of casualties for any extended expedition. Read a few books about war and then whine about how bad the Iraq War is. Freedom for you to spout off, but freedom for others to have their children locked up in prison, their wives raped, and tortured to death for dissent? Boy, you libs are a humanitarian bunch.
ReplyDeleteBy the way the Democrats authorized the war. Peace.
