On Undermining the President at war Andrew G Gatto
“Some people say” that it is “irresponsible” to “undermine” the President at war. “Some people” are saying that it is “over the top” to do so and should result in “apologies” and “resignations.”
“Some people,” some group of unprincipled and unqualified men and women- some gaggle of cowards, of which many had relied on “some other people” to take their place by force in reference to their own service, are calling for some kind of reparation or retraction of statements by those who have based their opinions and statements on their personal experience and further by their first hand knowledge of the consequence of war.
“Some people” drifted through their youth untouched by the institutional repercussions of poverty and class. “Some people” benefited from the wealth, knowledge and treachery of their fathers, and therefore were granted the privilege of skipping personal knowledge of war in the first person.
Mr. Mehlman has “demanded” to know where “every American represented by a Democratic Congressman or Senator” stood on this issue. His “inquiry” is little more than an attempt to divide Democratic citizens while disguising it as some sort of moral requirement to step up to the plate and choose. His words are nothing less than a glaring look into the cruel and despicable simplicity of his soul.
His empty quest to serve himself is not worthy of my reply.
However, as I am a human being- a man afflicted with my own inherently flawed capacity to feel anger, I shall answer this question:
I stand with Dr. Dean. I stand With Mr. Kerry and Mr. Murtha. I stand with Mrs. Pelosi and all who oppose this cancer on my nation.
I stand with the belief that Mr. Rumsfeld’s, Mr. Cheney’s, et. al. knowledge of the horrid benefit of corrupting American loyalty and patriotism has led us all into this dark place.
I stand with the belief that the President and his chosen circle have pushed to conquer the media, instilling shills and loyalists who will repeat any FAX that holds the White House, Pentagon, or RNC letterhead verbatim.
I stand firm in the belief that the “some people” in question are a skilled and diabolical group who has chosen to revive the methods of Fascism and Imperialism to gain personal wealth and power.
And so, Mr. Mehlman, Mr. Hannity, Mr. Limbaugh, and the rest of you, I stand here as one person who openly supports undermining the President in a time of war.
I seek to undermine him as a result of my personal and first hand witness of his delusion, of his blatant incompetence, and his corruption.
My witness of his ignorance of the poor, of the diverse, of those who serve our country has led me here. My witness of the evil methods his strata have used to tenaciously deceive and dupe the citizens of my nation only strengthens my resolve.
I offer to you, Mr. Mehlman this opinion:
Any man or woman in this nation who does not question the motives of this President at this point in our history is a coward. Any person who seeks to revive some sort of dignity to this man and his ilk upon witness of his devastation of my nation is a criminal and can only do so by pursuing criminal means.
Any American who regurgitates the crafted and duplicitous slogans of your corrupted and criminal point of view to question my patriotism is characteristically un-American.
I remind you once again, Mr. Mehlman that the policies of Fascism and Imperialism, of Subversion and of Nationalism are proven failures in history. Note how quickly the sun now sets on the “British Empire.”
Lastly, I remind you again that your time is coming, and I shall stand proudly and ready to comfort your victims when you at last are removed from my sight.
