I knew I couldn’t trust Robert Gates

When it was learned that Robert Gates was part of the Iraq Study Group (which was formed and had the image that the members of this group was coming in to give Bush another perspective of the Iraq occupation) and that he was a long time friend of Bush Sr., my first thought was, “Oh great! This [...]

United for Peace march in Portland, Maine was a blast!

CLICK HERE IF YOU CAN’T READ MY PROTEST SIGNS 
What a wonderful time I had protesting the Bush Regime and ending the illegal and immoral occupation of Iraq today! It was cold, but we all dressed warm knowing that we would be out there in the elements. Of course, I’m the only one who wasn’t wearing [...]

Flashback to the protests before the Iraq illegal invasion:

My son was downloading some music off YouTube last night and he was playing some of System of the Down’s music, when I heard ‘Boom’ playing. I thought, what better way to pump up everyone today who is going to be protesting all over the country then to have some music and some images from [...]

“Warriors Walk” is losing space to honor war dead

What a wonderful way Fort Stewart, Georgia is honoring their soldiers who have died in Iraq. Warriors Walk is a memorial where after a short ceremony an eastern redbud tree is planted in honor of each soldier. Well, they’re running out of room now. So far, they’ve lost 318 soldiers and the caretakers of this [...]

Is the Bush Regime posturing to piss off Russia now?

Apparently, the Bush Regime believes putting anti-missile bases near the border of Russia in Europe will make more peace in the Middle East region and will force Iran and Syria to back off. Uh huh. Okay, if I’m not mistaken, but, isn’t putting warships into the Persian Gulf near Iran, being best buds with Israel, [...]

Poor Bush the elder…he talks to his television

I talk to my television all the time when his son is on it. He should hear what I say to it!
Poor Bush Sr…
He truly believes his son, George W. Bush, is beloved throughout our nation and the world and he can’t understand why anyone would talk bad about his son…especially the media, he says! What [...]

Let’s teach our nation to sing tomorrow…

It’s the eve of the United for Peace protest in Washington, DC and what better way to get the mood started than to sing a song! I think you’ll recognize it. It’s the song that was used in the Coka Cola commercial back in the 70’s without the ‘buy the world a Coke’ part. Sing it loudly [...]

Feingold & Conyers are talking ‘impeachment’

Okay, they haven’t actually said that impeachment is back on the table, but from what they are saying, the oversight hearings they will be conducting here soon will be the path too it if they find what Americans think they’ll find out. Oh boy! I’m  excited about this.
From the Brad Blog via Raw Story:

United for Peace protest this Saturday in DC

Prior to the illegal invasion of Iraq, the protests in Washington, DC were pretty darn big and most averaged between 350,000 -500,000 participants. Not bad for a country that was on the cusp of war. Well, things have changed.  The mood in America has changed. We, who are against this illegal occupation and who have always been [...]
