Democratic Centralism
[from the November 6, 2000 issue of The Nation]
"When the ax came into the woods, the trees all said, 'Well, at least the handle is one of us.'" There is more intellectual content in this old Turkish folk warning than in the entire output of the "lesser evil" school.
Get Yours Today!
You too can use signing statements. Just amend you next paycheck to amount you prefer and present this card. The President's Club Card is indispensible. Get out of jail free. Torture friends and enemies freely. Do whatever he hell you want--and never get punished or even held responsible. This is every American's dream. Get one today and you'll have an empire by tomorrow.
Dinos for Impeachment
DINOSAURS FOR JUSTICE
Dinosaurs went extinct and we don't know why for sure. But, with George Bush in office; we WILL know why we went extinct--global warming, global warfare, nuclear holocaust--take your pick.
Here is my son, Cian's, good friend, Velocirapter showing the colors for justice and peace through impeachment--the only legal way to remove a sitting president.
Semper pacificus,
Dan and Cian
It's Easy, Mr. Bush, E-Z
I know lots of things are hard for you, George. Like running a business and telling the truth and flying and...well, you know what I mean. And, I often have trouble just understanding what you say; not to mention what you mean by what you say.
So, I thought I should give you something you can look at when you write your own resignation letter. Just read it off to one of your secretaries, Condi perhaps or the new guy, Gates. They'll type it up in a wink. Or, you could copy it out longhand yourself. You could even trace it. But, make sure you get the date right. It's "29 DECEMBER 2006" and remember to leave out the quotation marks. Also, use your own name. It's GEORGE W. BUSH. O.K.? Richard Nixon is the other crook.
I just want what's best for you. I know you'd really rather be cutting brush at your ranchero in texero. Just sign your name and you can be there cutting brush just like the real Cool Hand Luke.
And remember, George, no signing statements...not necessary, really, not necessary.
Yes We Can Can! If We Wanna Yes We Can Can!
Ever since Time Magazine declared "ME" Person of the Year, I've wondered what I could possibly have done to win so exalted a title. In the nearly eighty year history of Time Magazine's Person of the Year, the people or things selected have been chosen based on their great impact on the world. The choices have been far ranging. From Gandhi in 1930, to Hitler in 1938, to Endangered Earth in 1988.
But this year the selection is "ME" and the millions like "ME" who are active participants in Web 2.0. The bloggers, diarists, posters, viewers, digitizers, observers, surveyors, purveyors, etc., who share and snare information daily. Humorists, satirists, polemicists and poets. Brilliant enlightened points of view. Anger and angst. Harmony and hate. Everything's there in the blogosphere.
Open Letter to John Conyers
Open Letter to Representative John Conyers
December 14th
Dear Representative Conyers:
I am deeply disappointed that my Democratic Party, which I have spent so much time working to help and fund, has removed "impeachment from the table."
To the point: I think that those who made that decision should be removed from the room, others should take their place and the decision should be made to place impeachment back on the table.
LIBERAL: Pejoritive Now, But Our Language Knows What is What
LIBERAL & CONSERVATIVE: A COMPARISON OF THE WORDS
By Daniel I. Fearn
Unlike the etymology of liberal which is consistent through time (Gk>L>O.Fr.>Eng.); the etymology of conservative is confusing, apparently inconsistent and hard to find. The cause of this confusion is probably due in parts to the lack of Latin fluency, the unavailability of etymologies in modern dictionaries and a conflation of two little known Latin words with similar but opposite meanings.

By Mikael Rudolph
A man whose country has been invaded and is under occupation by the most powerful nation in the world is suddenly arrested in the middle of the night and taken away from his family and friends by the army of his occupiers. As he is rendered from place to place his startled loved ones have no idea where he has been taken.

Arguments Against Bush Impeachment...
If we impeach Bush, we'll get President Cheney!
Initiating the impeachment process will lead to an investigation that will implicate lots of people in the Bush administration who are guilty of committing crimes, including Cheney.
In addition, no matter who we get to replace Bush, we'll be showing those in power that anyone who breaks the law will be held accountable.
