Arab News op ed....BAM!!

[homelandpunk]

"When a single individual combines ignorance, immorality, dry-drunk syndrome, a publicly proclaimed commitment to perpetual military domination of the entire world by his country, a publicly expressed belief that God personally instructs him to make war on specific countries and a wildly irrational born-again brand of Christianity that views the Battle of Armageddon and the consequent end of life on earth as desirable developments and, at the same time, has command authority over an arsenal of weapons of mass destruction more than sufficient to achieve the end of life on earth, it is difficult to argue that this individual is not the most dangerous person who has ever lived."

http://alienation-news.blogspot.com/}
but they linked to arabnews.com...the actual op ed is from a few weeks back I think, so you may have to search.

Btw, not only is http://alienation-news.blogspot.com a good place for news items, but check out propagandamatrix.com and underreported.com as well.

6. This one's a keeper!

Whitbeck's short commentary was a response to shrub's incredulous 7/25 statement that we had to remove Saddam from power because he wouldn't let the inspectors in.

excerpt:
Assuming, as seems reasonable, that the president of the United States was neither drunk nor on LSD, there can be only two possible explanations for this statement:

Explanation 1: The president of the United States believed what he said. In this case, he is so dim-witted and/or totally divorced from reality as to be mentally unfit to hold his current job — or, indeed, any job — and should be taken into medical care.

Explanation 2: The president did not believe what he said but, rather, believes (unfortunately not without compelling post-Sept.11 evidence) that the vast majority of the American people are so dim-witted and/or uninformed and the vast majority of the American media is so sycophantic and/or terrified of being branded “unpatriotic” (or simply losing White House “access”) that he can now tell any lie, no matter how obvious and outrageous, and get away with it. In this case, he is morally unfit to hold his current job and should, by constitutional means, be forced to relinquish it as soon as possible.

Either explanation should scare the wits out of anyone who is not comatose.

7. Wow! That is awesome...

actually called him a drydrunk. I don't think I've ever seen him called that except on DU.
