You're so vain you probably think this [blog] is about you........ Carly Simon

Velveeta does NOT take kindly to being suckered. Not that she has been of late. Just wanted to point it out.

The majority of the American people though, don't seem to mind it. I am fascinated by this type of person. The ones that buy bottled water, watch reality TV and believe everything they hear on main stream media from the likes of Tweety, Wolf, Brit and the rest of the corporate talking heads that spew crap out of their mouths. Sadly, most of these suckers also voted for our current clam-head administration because, well, they thought Bush would be fun to have a beer with!

I fucking kid you not. If you time-traveled from the past and I told you this was how we picked our leaders you'd never believe it.

The bush mafia suckered congress into believing that Iraq had WMD's. How did this happen? Because that very nice black General, Colin Powell, well, he got up there and showed us some pictures and told us that they were chemical weapons factories and stockpiles of various and sundry deadly missiles that could be used against us and our allies. Colin Powell had a hard life and he was able to achieve success in a white mans world, CERTAINLY he wouldn't lie to us. Would he?


Then that homely, but awfully nice Condi Rice hinted something about a smoking gun and a mushroom cloud. Weeeeellll, that's enough for most folks - so off we went, again, to Iraq. This time to finish the job.

Now, somewhere along the line, the WMD's vanished but Al-Qaeda magically appeared! As if Dick Cheney climbed out of his undisclosed bunker somewhere and waved his wand - *bling* Al-Qaeda *pop*. Amazing!

Suckers.

Meantime, somewhere in a cave in Northern Pakistan..........

Now, Iran is the next build up. We have to, um......... bomb them? Why is that again? Nukes? No, according to John McCain who wants to be our next President the Iranians are training Al-Qaeda in Iraq. Yet another man who seems to be taking too many “little blue pills”. That’s the only reason I can think to give for this insane “attacking” addiction the Republicans have.

For the love of all that is Holy, can anyone be that stupid and still have a paying job, in Congress no less? This man is a Senator? Does he ever read any of the shit that comes across his desk? He's confused Sunni and Shia, two different sects with different philosophies of how their leaders are chosen. Certainly the Shi'ittes in Iran are not about to help the Sunni Al-Qaeda.

Why didn't the media pick up this little tidbit? Well, maybe there was no drunk celeb-utard with a sex tape, a missing white woman, or a pregnant man involved in the story. We may never know.

Suckers.

But, the good news is that despite the fact that the economy is in a "slight downturn", bush and our wimpy Congress will grace us with an economic stimulus of between $300 to $1200! (Not that there is anything wrong with our economy, everything is fine, just fine - be sure to keep that in mind).

Apparently we didn't do our jobs well enough. Remember, we're supposed to be helping the war effort buy "going shopping" per our decider.

So, don't forget, when you get that big check you run right off to your local big box store and support the economy.......... of China.

Sucker.


Meanwhile, our young people will continue to turn into the sheeple that the government/military/religious right wants. Where the greatest goal for a woman will be a big ass and a sex tape; and for men will be a prosthetic limb and a drug habit.

Suckers all.

I suppose I should also add to today's blog that Mr. Charles Heston has passed. A great, ham actor with a booming voice. What I respected most about him was his commitment to civil rights. (Though he was very much against rights for gays). He passed away of the same thing his hero, Ronnie Reagan, did.

No word on whether there was a gun in his cold dead hand.
