SHOUT OUT, "NO
MORE!"

As
I crisscross the cyber "landscape" I can't seem to stop stumbling
over articles who's authors, though historically very accurate, and
in exactly the right direction in terms of content, continue to use
such soft terminology seemingly as to not offend the Bush administration.
I've enjoyed reading a bucket load of excellent articles, and offer
the highest praise of their work. One thing mystifies me to this day,
though. It's not a new phenomenon. This oddity precedes the first Bush
catastrophe, election wise anyway. It's the use of terms such as "mislead"
for lie. It isn't that the data in question haven't been vetted properly
and clearly exposed as deliberate, bald-faced LIES. Bush didn't mislead
the congress. He LIED to congress, as did most, if not all of his cartel,
which is a FELONY. Bush didn't mislead the American People, He LIED
to the American people, with premeditation, and malice. Virtually every
statement these people makes falls neatly into the narrowest interpretation
of the word LIE. This is a much more direct term, the impact which is
desperately needed in this ever diminishing country. Bush WAS NOT ELECTED
IN 2000. This isn't in contest by non-ideologues. It is historical fact.
Another term used frequently today is "suspicion," or "suspicious"
in referral to the "possible" miscount of the presidential
vote. Well, given clear irrefutable examples of this blatant malicious
behavior, then one may freely and with blissful abandon, to dispense
with the term "suspicion" and freely proceed with the FACT
that the presidential election was fraudulent. If only ONE example of
this malfeasance is present, then fraud DOES exist, one no longer be
"suspicious" about it. It's FACT, and as it turns out, the
country is rife with such examples. It follows, therefore, that yes,
the election of 2004 is as corrupt and fraudulent as in 2000. These
disreputable SOB's have had four years to streamline their "act."
I would suggest that writers raise this fact to a shrill level rather
than this sadly cowed whisper. For God's sake, if the time for exposure
and action isn't now, well, I cannot imagine a time better. Changes
to the sociopolitical landscape and economic landscape of the most disastrous
magnitude are being made this very instant. How many more bricks shall
we hand the republicans to fortify the wealthy in ways that can never
be changed. How many more American dead will we tolerate in Bush's clearly
unnecessary crusade in Iraq? How many more BILLIONS of dollars will
we give to a feckless thug and his mob before we SHOUT OUT, "NO
MORE!" Or will we continue to mumble and write because we want
someone else to do it.
