Here's This Week's Rant: http://www.issuesandalibis.org
We've Been Stupid For Too Long By Ernest Stewart [EMAIL PROTECTED] Stupidity is the basic building block of the universe. - - Frank Zappa You don't get to be old by being a fool. There are a lot of young, wise men, dead as a muther-fucker - - Richard Pryor Hey America, we're number one! Let's hear it for us! Yeah! But consider what being number one really means. As far as I can tell for the last 8,000 years it has meant that whoever was number one on the planet didn't become number one by being voted into that position. They, like us, became numero uno by being the meanest, nastiest, evilest, sons-of-bitches that ever drew breath. So, Yippee! Eh? Trouble with being number one is every punk nation/city state on the planet out to make a reputation begins to send mindless aggression your way. So far our little west Taxus prairie monkey and his cabal have managed to alienate about two thirds of the planet; half of which now hate our guts, the remaining third (our NATO allies) are nervous, summer of 1938 in Europe nervous! As we celebrate three years of slaughtering children in Iraq and the total destruction of our economy due to the cost of the war; not to mention all of the better paying middle-class jobs being sent to our new friends in India. Now with Iran dumping dollars and selling it's oil in Euros will not the rest of Asia soon follow too? And when China calls in it's markers if you thought the 1930s were a bee-otch, well you ain't seen nothing yet folks. The reason that so far we aren't all in soup lines is our good friends the "Red" Chinese have been buying our IOUs to the tune of trillions of dollars, not to mention all the other countries that we owe big time thanks to our glorious fuhrer and his corpo-rat pals. For the past 5 years we have been going out of our way to piss off everybody on the planet and have pretty much succeeded with everyone but our partners in crime England and Israel and who knows maybe Canada as well? We can put a few battalions of Canadians to work bashing out brains in the Sunni triangle after they run out of baby seals and give our boys and girls a break from doing the same. They can take the place of the Japanese who are pulling out of Iraq to bring their Samurais home to train new legions of troops for the fun to come. I told you several times did I not; long before the war began, that before we were through with the Iraqis they'd be begging for Saddam to return. The latest poll out of the "cradle of civilization" shows around 70% would prefer Saddam over America. So much for the "Mission Accomplished," eh? Trouble is there is no end in sight, at least not for the Junta. Von Rumsfeld, Dead-eye Dick, Kindasleezy and Smirky have all crawled out from under their rocks to beat up a little support for the current and the new oil wars to come. Before we can conquer the world we have to control all the energy that we can, or as Bush puts it, "My preciousssss”. Now consider that there is such a thing as being too stupid to live. A good example would be Pat Tillman! The trouble with killing all the "Lions & Tigers & Bears, Oh MY!" is that they used to eat all the dummies. Thinning the herd is a good thing because those morons never got to breed or found dynasties or even become Presidents. But fear not my friends, old mother nature abhors a vacuum even if it lies between two ears and we are just another stumble of foreign policy away from World War III, which at the current rate might be coming to a city near you next year! This autumn's elections may be our last chance to save the world from another dark age. If we don't replace the House and Senate Rethuglicans as well as the Dixiecrats with liberals that will Impeach the Chimp we are all headin' for the last roundup pardner, if you get my drift? Ergo... Starting next month we'll open a new department i.e. "Election 2006" which will be open through the election with info on the various races and which will be updated constantly. If you know a candidate we should support send us the info to: [EMAIL PROTECTED], write "Election 2006" in the subject line and we'll help spread the word. ************************************ In our "How The Mighty Have Fallen" department consider the strange case of Andrew Young. Andy you'll remember was the right hand man of Dr. Martin Luther King, a US Con-gressman, Mayor of Atlanta, US Ambassador to the United Nations, friend of the down trodden and for the last year paid front man, token and shill for the evilest corpo-rat on the planet! No, I'm not talking about Disney but the even worse Wal-Mart. Before joining Wal-Mart Andy was a paid shill trying to cover up the sweat shops and slave labor for the Nike Corpo-rat. Andy now heads the 5th column group, "Working Families For Wal-Mart" for the usual 30 pieces of silver. When we asked Andy if he had any honor left in him why he hadn't fallen on his sword or perhaps like Judas hung himself we got, "No Comment." Funny thing that, eh? Tsk tsk tsk. ******************************************** "W's" website is finally open to the public and this means Y'all! You can down load and check out the teaser trailer in four formats. The theatre trailer will be up soon (I'm in that one) as well a second movie poster. Click on media to vid poster #1. W's campy. It's avant-garde and it's just a wee bit SURREAL. It's a salute to 1950's sci-fi, it's as serious as a heart attack and it confirms what we've all wondered about ... is W really from outer space? And wouldn't that explain a lot of things, wouldn't it? Find out for yourself who's behind the evil Party of No! It's coming to a theatre near you this summer and a film festival this spring. http://wthemovie.com Ernest Stewart is the managing editor of Issues & Alibis magazine http://www.issuesandalibis.org = = = = = = = = = Shared with you, from ... ~~Suz~~ * Only 1,030 days remaining until Inaugural Day 1/20/09 * Mark Twain: “The only time the children are safe is when Congress is not in session.” * "The civilized have created the wretched, quite coldly and deliberately, and do not intend to change the status quo; are responsible for their slaughter and enslavement; rain down bombs on defenseless children whenever and wherever they decide that their 'vital interests' are menaced, and think nothing of torturing a man to death: these people are not to be taken seriously when they speak of the 'sanctity' of human life, or the 'conscience' of the civilized world." - James Baldwin * Jeff Foxworthy: http://informationclearinghouse.info/article12188.htm * "If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator."
