It was about time!

Finally, the White House is recognizing that the Fox News network is just a branch of the Republican Party. Their whole purpose for existing has been to spread lies, organize fake grass roots rallies and to send in saboteurs to the Town Hall Meetings.

They have organized demonstrations, staged protests, and will not let off their criticisms of the President. It is unprecedented to say the least that a whole television network is dedicated to the vilification of a President.

Fox News commentators Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity have been strong Obama critics, and Bill O'Reilly has taken tough looks at the administration. Obama avoided "Fox News Sunday" when he visited five Sunday morning news shows last month; three aides carried the administration's message on Afghanistan, health care and the economy this Sunday to ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC, but not Fox; and a recent White House blog post accused Beck of lying. Beck has called Obama a racist.

Karl Rove, a Fox News contributor and former White House adviser to President George W. Bush, said the Obama administration is trying to demonize Fox News for asking questions officials do not like. He compared Obama's approach to that of President Richard Nixon, who included journalists on an "enemies list."

Karl Rove is a fine one to talk. Here is a guy who knows more about strategies and techniques to carry out the most vicious attacks on anyone who stand in the way of Republicans, particularly those of former President Bush. And as far as an “enemies list”, we don’t have to worry about that with the Republicans and Bush because they said it from the outset: “you are either with us or you are with the terrorists and your are a traitor”. In reality what happened was that a great majority of Americans became the enemies of Bush and the Republicans as was demonstrated by the way they voted in the last elections.








Massachusetts has had same sex marriage now for a few years…look what happened…hell froze over.







Official portrait of a Republican Dog
















This is how the original Pledge of Allegiance was before the fucking Evangelicals added “under God” in 1952.










KFC is also coming out with a new special promotion; it is called “The Republican” because it is made up of right wings and assholes.














A Germans' view of fanatics
E-mail I received today:
Quite an insight...! A German's View Of 'Fanatics'

This is by far the best explanation of the Muslim terrorist situation
I have ever read. His references to past history are accurate and
clear. Not long, easy to understand, and well worth the read. The
author of this email is said to be Dr. Emanuel Tanay, a well known and
well respected psychiatrist.

A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War II,
owned a number of large industries and estates. When asked how many
German people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our
attitude toward fanaticism. 'Very few people were true Nazis,' he
said, 'but many enjoyed the return of German pride, and many more were
too busy to care. I was one of those who just thought the Nazis were a
bunch of fools. So, the majority just sat back and let it all happen.
Then, before we knew it, they owned us, and we had lost control, and
the end of the world had come. My family lost everything. I ended up
in a concentration camp and the Allies destroyed my factories.'

We are told again and again by 'experts' and 'talking heads' that
Islam is the religion of peace, and that the vast majority of Muslims
just want to live in peace. Although this unqualified assertion may be
true, it is entirely irrelevant. It is meaningless fluff, meant to
make us feel better, and meant to somehow diminish the spectre of
fanatics rampaging across the globe in the name of Islam.

The fact is that the fanatics rule Islam at this moment in history. It
is the fanatics who march. It is the fanatics who wage any one of 50
shooting wars worldwide. It is the fanatics who systematically
slaughter Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa and are
gradually taking over the entire continent in an Islamic wave. It is
the fanatics who bomb, behead, murder, or honor-kill. It is the
fanatics who take over mosque after mosque. It is the fanatics who
zealously spread the stoning and hanging of rape victims and
homosexuals. It is the fanatics who teach their young to kill and to
become suicide bombers.

The hard quantifiable fact is that the peaceful majority, the 'silent
majority,' is cowed and extraneous. Communist Russia was comprised of
Russians who just wanted to live in peace, yet the Russian Communists
were responsible for the murder of about 20 million people. The
peaceful majority were irrelevant.

China's huge population was peaceful as well, but Chinese Communists
managed to kill a staggering 70 million people.

The average Japanese individual prior to World War II was not a
warmongering sadist. Yet, Japan murdered and slaughtered its way
across South East Asia in an orgy of killing that included the
systematic murder of 12 million Chinese civilians; most killed by
sword, shovel, and bayonet.

And, who can forget Rwanda, which collapsed into butchery. Could it
not be said that the majority of Rwandans were 'peace loving'?

History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our
powers of reason we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of
points: Peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant by their
silence. Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they don't
speak up, because like my friend from Germany, they will awaken one
day and find that the fanatics own them, and the end of their world
will have begun. Peace-loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians,
Rwandans, Serbs, Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis,
Nigerians, Algerians, and many others have died because the peaceful
majority did not speak up until it was too late.


Is this what you want for America?


As for us who watch it all unfold, we must pay attention to the only
group that counts; the fanatics who threaten our way of life.



.......Emanuel Tanay, M.D.


Too bad he mentions nothing about our own fanatics; those Evangelical-Fundamentalist who are just as destructive to our society. The only difference being that their pastors have not yet asked them to strap bombs to themselves.

I WILL ASK THE QUESTION ONCE MORE: IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT FOR AMERICA? Do you want to see your son, your brother or your neighbor hanging because they are gay?
