Wait A Minute......We're At War?

If we are at war, wouldn't that make Liz Cheney a traitor for criticizing the president during a war? That's what we were told when we dared to criticize President Bush, by the very likes of Liz Cheney.
And what does Liz Cheney know about winning war? About as much as her daddy, Draft Deferment Dick, that's for sure. All Liz Cheney is, is another generation of entitled spawn of a criminal class more intent on ripping people off than actually making us safer. The main problem with this country is that we have a new class of conservative royalty who spew rhetoric with out actually knowing anything.
First of, the Times Square "bomber" is a naturalized citizen of the United States. that makes him entitled to the same rights as you and I. Including his Miranda rights. And if this new class wants to take those rights from him because they have labeled him a "terrorist", then that's all they have to do to you.
Secondly, General Petraeus has stated the bomber was acting alone. Who are you going to trust? Some loud mouth brat mouthing off about things she doesn't know about all in the name of protecting her deadly father's legacy? Or a general who's in the thick of the fight? Given the fact that Liz Cheney is on Fox News, an altered reality of Republican candidates and talking points, I'm gonna go with the General on this one.
Thirdly, we have been fighting this war against "terrorism" for some time now, and it has yet to be successful. Instead of dropping bombs and unmanned drones on innocent civilians, maybe we ought to examine our foreign policy. Treating people like their lives aren't worth a shit leaves them feeling like all they can do is blow shit up. Of course, this foreign policy was initiated by Liz's dad, you can't tell her this doesn't work, because most entitled people such as her have never been known to admit their mistakes.
So if Liz Cheney's main complaint is that President Obama's first instinct is to obey the Constitution, well them I guess we know here that puts the party of 'NO'. No rights, no change, and no hope. How's that workin' out for ya?

The New American Terrorist or Keep Your Bible Out Of My Ass Unless You Want To Get Shit On It

In the days following 9/11, the country was together like never before in history. United We Stand stickers decorated vehicles from the lowliest rusting Honda to the mightiest gas sucking Hummer. We were as one.
We were united against a common enemy, terrorists who would use violence and intimidation against civilians in order to impose their limited religious views on them. These people hated us, we were told, because we were free.
Welcome to Amarillo.
In Amarillo, there's a new brand of terrorists, cowards who bully people who have chosen to enjoy the freedoms granted to them by the (once) greatest country that has ever existed. Under the guise of Christian Patriotism they harass and intimidate those with whom they do not agree. Gays. "Swingers". Environmentalists. Liberals. People who celebrate Halloween. Pornography shops.
Yes, the people of Amarillo are being terrorized by Repent Amarillo, a self proclaimed "Army of God" who enjoy dressing up like soldiers and using intimidation tactics against their fellow Americans, instead of becoming real soldiers and fighting America's real enemies, the Muslim heathens who attacked us on 9/11. Or, if they didn't attack us, practice a form of the religion of those that did. They have become even more evil than Liz Cheney, if that's possible.
And so now a country once united has become divided into hate groups: people who use their bible as reinforcement for their phobic beliefs of groups they do not understand, people who love to drop bombs on people with belief systems different than theirs but don't want to pay the taxes to fund the bombings, and the the Republican Party. They have destroyed this country much better than alQaeda could have ever dreamed of doing.

The Selective Amnesia Of The Cheney Family

Does Dick Cheney have Alzheimer's? Did he contract it from his years of association with Ronald Reagan? In recently released FBI documents of an interview with then Vice President Cheney, he claimed that he has no idea" who leaked Plame's name to Bob Novak, he does not recall any discussion with Libby of perceived nepotism associated with Wilson's selection for the CIA assignment, and that the vice president is relatively certain that he spoke to someone about the article but he cannot remember exactly who it was.(UPDATE:A list of 22 things Cheney can't recall about the Plame affair) Which is pretty much the same testimony Reagan gave in the Iran-Contra case.
Well, if Alzheimer's isn't contagious, it certainly is hereditary. Take Cheney's daughter, Liz (Please). When President Obama went to Dover AFB to honor returning fallen soldiers, she shot back "I think that what President Bush used to do is do it without the cameras. And I don't understand sort of showing up with the White House Press Pool with photographers and asking family members if you can take pictures. That's really hard for me to get my head around...It was a surprising way for the president to choose to do this."
What she fails to remember is that President Bush never met returning caskets at Dover, EVER. Neither did her father. With cameras, or not, the previous administration loved to send US troops to die, make money for their crony friends doing it, and never having to be reminded of the end result of their handiwork. In fact, in 2004, Bush wanted to slash over one billion dollars from the Veteran Affairs budget.
So I guess it's okay for Liz Cheney to blather on about things she chooses not to remember, it's her right as an American. The problem here is that in their mad rush to torpedo the efforts of the Obama administration to undo all the evil inflicted by the previous administration (which is certainly no mad rush unto itself), the Fox "news" organization will put anyone on who is willing to lie or selectively remember events to cast an unflattering light on them to further their corporate right wing agenda.
