Reply #27: Anybody who objects to a TRILLION dollars being spent on defense annually

[kenny blankenship]

against a ragtag enemy of a couple thousand goat fuckers - meaning it was directed at pretty much the entire Progressive Caucus in the House. His broad brush swept up anybody who, like Jane Hamsher, or Matt Taibi, or Mike Moore, or Physicians For National Health Program, objected to the calls of the people for health care reform being preempted & suckered with a plan to legally force them all to buy defective insurance products from companies with a murderous record of killing for profit. It was aimed at anybody who, like Glenn Greenwald or the ACLU, has noticed that the President has continued most of Bush's 4th amendment abuses, and has defended Bush's detention policies and shielded numerous Bush admin figures from prosecution. In short, it was a slam against any traditional Democrat who has criticized the President for his full-on corporatist health "care" swindle, or his imposture as a sometime opponent of imperial wars, and the civil rights abuses that come with them.
