33. If we can’t prosecute banksters, war criminals & traitors, they don’t need to go after me.

Stop answering your automated reply email notification and think.



If We the People can no longer prosecute traitors who lied America into war, nor the guilty banksters who destroyed the economy, enabled by the people's representatives and the mafia for whom they stand; nor the too-big-to-fail banks and corporations that own and operate them; nor the tax-dodging, money laundering, drug dealing, terrorist financing, mass murdering, war profiteering, warmongering eugenicists and NAZIs, as well the traitors whose names we know and crimes are documented in the public record; they walk free. So, what am I to them? Nothing.

Here's a link.

Great cartoonist and deserves it immensely. n/t zappaman Feb 2013 #1

I have good reason for my concern about the BFEE. Why you feel it's a waste of time is your concern. Octafish Feb 2013 #27
Has the BFEE tried to shut you down? zappaman Feb 2013 #28

zappaman's Post #10 shouldn't have been hidden; it's spot-on. The DU jury wasn't aware of the apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #67
Thanks for your opinion. That's not what I said, however. Octafish Feb 2013 #68
It's not an "opinion" it's a FACT: you *precisely* implied LHO was heroic here: apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #69
Show me where I wrote something that was not true. Octafish Feb 2013 #75
Show me where I wrote something that was not true. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #76
For starters, you said you read books that don't exist. Octafish Feb 2013 #79
(1) Baloney. (2) You wrote every speck of it, as proven. (3) More baloney. n/t. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #82
As for the "bibliography" nonsense, I refer all DU'ers here: apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #70
Thanks for *once again* allowing me to expose your credibility with that "bibliography" nonsense, apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #71
It is to make clear where you are coming from. Octafish Feb 2013 #73
Where I am "coming from" is the verifiable historical record, as shown. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #84
Truly, a great read. Octafish Feb 2013 #72
It is indeed a "great read," as it deals with so much silliness in one fell swoop. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #74
More accusations. Octafish Feb 2013 #77
JFK wanted to wage the Cold War - and he sent the first 20,000 combat troops to Vietnam. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #78
What book was that in? What's your source? Octafish Feb 2013 #80
Certainly the facts are JFK sent the first 20,000 combat troops to Vietnam, period. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #81
Octafish = busted on the historical facts. Once again. Fun stuff. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #83
Seeing how you can't supply a link or a source, you are just wasting time and disrupting. Octafish Feb 2013 #86
Seeing how my "source" is common American history - accepted by every credible scholar from apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #87
Too many to name - and none you've ever read. Your link to your own post to a CT'er baloney blog apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #85
So the unknown book you reference is from your memory. Octafish Feb 2013 #88
