"Night of the living assholes"

Just when you thought the Bush Administration couldn't get even more fucked up....

I mean, jesus h, first the lies about the WMDs that led to the deaths of 2500 American servicepeople and about 35,000 Iraqi deaths (that's 10 for every person killed in the 9/11 attacks for those of you keeping score at home), then we have the wholescale rape of the Bill of Rights, and then they sold senior citizens on Medicade down the river for a dime on a dollar, and then we had "Deadeye" Dick Cheney mistaking a 70 year old man in bright orange for a quail.

So forgive me for giving those motherfuckers the old stink-eye.

But now I'm not the only one. Did you hear the latest? Bush has sold the operating contracts for major US ports to a company in the United Arab Emirates.

Uh huh.

Now those of you not suffering from short-term memory loss will recall it wasn't even a year ago that there was a scathing expose' on the lack of security at these ports and they can't even inspect 1/10th of the containers entering the country from overseas. So now they want to hand the whole operation over to not just a foreign country, but one to which the 9/11 hijackers were linked, with Al Qaeda funds flowing through UAE banks and supposedly illicit nuclear materials bound for Iran were shipped via the UAE.

But both Bush and Rumsfeld assure us that the intelligence agencies- those same clowns who either caved in to Cheney or were just totally fucking incompetent and told us that Iraq had WMDs- has given a clean bill of health to the UAE.

Oh, but it gets even better. The outrage against this cuts across party and ideological lines, with Hillary and Bill Frist on the same side condemning this craven sell-out of American security to a foreign country and promising to pass a bill stopping this sale.

And El Presidente's reaction? "They {Congress} ought to listen to what I have to say about this," the president said. "They'll look at the facts and understand the consequences of what they're going to do. But if they pass a law, I'll deal with it with a veto."

There you have it- King George has spoken. Apparently 9/11 has become passe, let's all just forget about it and move on. What more is needed? If I didn't know better, El Presidente and his sorry band of assholes are in cahoots with Al Qaeda and sucking Bin Laden's dick. The turned Osama into a military genius and prognisticator extraordinaire, they assisted him in whipping the American people into a state of hypervigilant frenzy and continuious fear, they raped the Bill of Rights, destroying the very liberty they said Bin Ladin was trying to destroy, and now they are playing Judas and selling our security for a few pieces of silver.

Enough is enough. It's time to put a stop to these assholes while we still have a country.
