Happy Anniversary
Author: BobR
Date: 03/19/2008 12:15:07
Today is our anniversary. It's been 5 years! It started out with a real bang, but lately, things have been difficult. I guess that's to be expected. I wonder though, how much longer we can keep this going.
Personal relationship? No, I'm talking of course about the war in Iraq. It was 5 years ago today that Shock & Awe™ began. Five long years of blood and carnage and waste, based on trumped up evidence, cherry-picked intelligence and outright lies. Five long long years of human rights abuses, and Consitutional liberties being trampled, and accusations of treason against those who dared speak out against it.
I had wanted to write about hope for the future. Obama gave an amazing speech yesterday about moving beyond the racial divides that separate us, and moving towards understanding and economic justice. I was a little nervous doing so because SensiScholar (one of our friends at UNN) wrote this amazing blog in response. I really didn't think I could add anything to that, neither factually nor spiritually.
This morning, however, I got an email that described how the Atlanta Grandmothers For Peace got arrested for protesting at a military recruitment station that is about a mile and a half from our house. The story in the AJC notes:
There is a link to the pictures there, and as I looked at them I realized I had met most of them at other anti-war demonstrations and functions. It made me feel a little ashamed. While I sit her pontificating from the comfort of my chair, there are women almost the age of my mother willfully putting themselves on the line. There are still soldiers in Iraq putting their lives on the line.
Today is the 5th anniversary of our invasion and occupation of a soverign nation. There will be protests all over the country. Find a protest or vigil near you. Step out of your comfort zone and make your voice be heard.
See you in the streets.

Not many criminals want their names spelled right when booked into jail.
But then Ann Mauney, 65, of Lake Claire and her nine partners in crime aren't most criminals.
First, they are older women; mostly grandmothers, who normally would never have their mugshots taken.
And, second they wanted to be arrested.
The Atlanta Police arrested the women, ages 57 to 80, for criminal trespass on Monday after they converged on the Army recruiting office off of Ponce de Leon in Midtown. The women said they were there to enlist and refused to leave when they were rejected.
They called themselves "Grandmothers for Peace," a play off "Veterans for Peace," whose members will lead a larger protest Wednesday back to the Army recruiting station at the Midtown Place Shopping Center to mark the fifth anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

Looking mighty quiet in these parts...
Oh, and speaking of the so-called rapture, I'm reading an interesting text called "What Paul Meant".
In it, the author theorizes that it's the Gentiles that will be treated the same as the Jews on the last day, meaning that the Jew's as God's own chosen people will be the ones saved, and all of us that follow the teachings of Jesus get to "tag along"...it's not supposed to be the other way around.
Interesting, to say the least.

"Epsilon-Minus Semi-Moron".

So why wouldn't a fellow dictator sully the same waters?

I'll be back later - so I'll waive "bye" (since I didn't waive "hi" when I showed up)
I'm going to try a bit using the Bush speech from this AM - gotta close out of my browser while running all the other software or else my comp will spit, sputter and whine... grr!
See y'all later!

Oh, dear. Every hooker has her day. Eliot Spitzer's hooker, Kristen, was taped during a bus tour of Girls Gone Wild when she was 18. She was in all manner of undress and doing the kinds of things those girls do. Uh-oh. Now the $1 million dollar offers from Penthouse and Playboy are dwindling. Maybe that other hooker, Heather Mills, can lend her a few Euros.

That's why you should never give it away. 
No big payoff for Kristen.
But for what she was getting at that service, she better have been damn good in bed.

Hey about those rebates, if we were to donate them to anti-war organizations, would they become a tax deductable write off? Just curious. It would kindof interesting if everyone at least donated some of that free government money back into the anti war movement.

Sanchez is calling into another show right now. Hope he doesn't become another Jake.

Liv, do you work downtown? You'll let us know if stockbrokers start jumping out of windows, mmmkay?
Comment by livingonli on 03/19/2008 20:42:56
Alas I don't work in Manhattan. I wish I did so I could take public transit instead of driving. My work location is in the old Grumman area.

I'm glad Randi's fill-in is discussing the war. Is there a war or occupation if the news doesn't report it?

I guess Steph is going to be on CNN Headline News in the 5 pm EST hour - for those who want to catch it. For those who might miss it, I'll put it up on the YouTubes after...

Evening, folks. Even though it's a repeat, I've got Los Mythbusteros on the teevee.
It's a martini night for me, too. :martini:

We did the WorldCan'tWait protest march this afternoon, then participated in a MoveOn vigil. It was inspiring and tiring (essentially, we were on our feet from 4:30 until 8:00). More details and pictures tomorrow...

Just cause I've not done it in a while. Hi Bob. : drinks shot:

Sounds like when we were in DC. How much walking did we do that Saturday from Breakfast until mid-afternoon. And I remember the 4-29-06 all the walking I did that day. My feet were killing me when I got on the train to go home.
