Porter Goss Resigns

Was it a case of the Rats Deserting a Sinking Ship Syndrome or is a video, starring Porter in a starring role, of HookerGate about to surface?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Iran

Surely the American people cannot be so gullible as to believe the rising tide of lies regarding Iran and nuclear weapons?

Should not the bullshit alarm be going off in the media and in the mind of every thinking person in the country? If we decide to attack Iran it will mean the beginning of World War 3. Perhaps that is what Bush and his Band of Bunglers want.

I was too young to remember Pearl Harbor and our entry into WW2 but I know that we will become a pariah nation, no friends, no allies, only utter contempt and hostility from the civilized world.

Lest these miscreants believe that we can do this again, attack another country who presents no danger to us or anyone else, without fear of retaliation because we are the only superpower, I would remind that there is more to power than military might.

The lesson we will have to learn will be bitter, indeed and it will rest on the heads of not only Bush and his cronies but on the heads of every one of us who allowed this travesty to come to pass.

Stephen Colbert

Much has been written about how unfunny Colbert was, or how out of line he was in his entertainment. Can none of the talking heads and giants of journalism understand that he was not trying to be funny but that he was holding a mirror up to Bush, the press and the Bush sycophants?

I suspect that they did in fact "get it" but pride, ego, vanity, whatever, keeps them from admitting it. What they saw in Colbert's performance is what we, the people, see in their performance and that of Bush and his sycophants as well.
