I think Katrina taught almost everyone that this Compassionate Conservative King shows constraint and ignorance about who deserves His Compassion, and OUR money. I think it interesting that he is spending Billions of our money on HIS mess in Iraq, a fraudelent war that he ejactulated our country into, and now he is having yearnings (wet dreams) to go into Iran. Yet we are supposed to agree to Billions more for Iraq.( Oh, that's right he needs an 11% Increase for the Pentagon). And yet if he came and knocked on my door and said" I need Billions more to follow through on promises made to those devastated by NOLA and the folks hurt by Katrina", I would be rushing around emptying my pockets. But no that is not the case. He is instead out humping his new Terra Agenda of Iran and Syria. And this weekend there were articles about HOW he plans to pay for his bloody ventures, because I guess is truly inspired by Mussolini and Hitler? ( I love how These kind of articles always come out on weekends, like NO Body reads on the weekends ???).
He plans to raid the Budgets of Medicare and Medicaid, Farm Programs and Education, and ANY Budget he views as "Entitled". That's right Mr.Bush views old women buying the SALE Friskies Cat Food as "Entitled", he doesn't have compassion for people trying to juggle Rent, Medication and God-for-Fucking-bid FOOD.So my Question is if he plans to cause Harm to people that are already suffering, what do we do Folks? And at what point is it considered Genocide, because that is what NOLA was....And apparently we are all to suffer the same Fate by this hateful Dictator ? I think we need to fight back....And oh,yeah The Democrats who are at The Retreat having a Cozy How-de-Doo this weekend , and even breaking Bread with the Decider. Everything all so Polite and Jovial. Hey, here's the thing- I think it is way too late for the "WOOING". We gave them Control and they are there clapping and giggling. What the hell is WRONG with these People??? I think Molly was right we need to bang Pots and Pans, and SOONER than Later.

Which WAR were you refering to, Enigma ? :)
At last count Shrub was fighting the "Evil Doers" in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine while threatening armed conflict with Iran and Syria all from the comfort of the White House Oval office.
What's next for this low life .... Saturn and the galaxies beyond ?
I'm assuming your move was accomplished successfully, the porch swing installed and you're settled comfortably before the fireplace with a cup of freshly brewed coffee.
I forgot to mention President Dimento is at WAR with the American people too.
Time for me to get some rest so I can be alert for the Super Bowl Sunday.
Niters and Peace,

I dunno Enigma, but lately I keep thinking the only thing that seems to grab these guys attn is to hit them in their pocketbooks. They ignore elections & eloquent protests & even our foreign allies who disagree with their agenda. Consumers may hold the key. Stop buying or investing in any product that supports the war effort! If that's not enough, maybe a tax revolt, a refusal to pay the 25% of your fed income tax which goes to support the war effort (ok, this only works if everyone does it, it's not enough for wierd uncle ned to go to tax prison). Europeans seem to like work stoppages, but then they have strong unions; I suspect they would be unsuccessful here today. Continuing to hump a war against the populist wishes will eventally trigger civilian violence ... I hope & pray they do not push us down that bloody route. ~~ D.K.
Non binding resolutions? I believe the next election will be a major wake-up call to all these people.
I had high hopes, but still, it's really the same old BS.
Why are they afraid of Bush? Boggles the mind! ; (
That the funding of the war, is seperate from all the funding in the US, our debt is way over what we are told. Massive isn't even close.
And yes, that the Gulf Coast and all else in the US hass been neglected by this administration, is so shocking, why isn't their more of an outcry on all this?
Cause he wants the War to fog all issues here and he's getting away with it.
Aaaaarrrrrgggghhhh! ; (
Makes me fighting mad. Where do we go to join up in the revolution and get issued my pot, pan and hammer?
Great post E4E, you nailed it. Send it to Congress and Senators.
Not to worry.
We've confiscated all the cell phone cameras in Mesopotamia.
The war is over! Nobody can make clandestine videos of hangings anymore.
Hot dam, Girlfren, speak it!
Great post! March 17th, DC, Pentagon, right?
d.
Time to rise up, Enigma. Great post.
Okay Time to pour some coffee and stay and chat for a bit here at the Counter....
PT: I am with you 100%....we all need to Rise Up....just need a New Plan...
Deud: If i can get through this month I can get through anything.....The thing is it is not the Pentagon I want to march on - it is the WH- period- because that is the Head of the Snake...
Shimmy: Welcome...you are a beautiful kitty , look very much like my Xena...but I don't think the cellphones are the problem....actually in the end I think vidoe and cellphones tell the Truth...
Spado: yup..pots and pans...Hmm, hammers- now that is a new touch..I think a wooden spoon for me....I am not the best with tools .
DK: I think we need to Strike, Stop work days....and yes NO SHOPPING....( yeah like I ever have 10 cents to shop..HA?!) I love the Tax idea...Seriously...( they owe me money this year- but I bet a year will come when NONE of us will see refunds....)
CM: boy you hit the nail on the head...
COSMIC: ahhh, well about the move- I am still in the middle of it- the Frigid Front has moved in by the Great Lakes- and it kind of dented the Move schedule- so I am half way moved- litterally...
I will explain later...But hopefully once we all get through this COLD...( I am sorry I have lived all over, but waking to ZERO with Negative 25 windchill- that is COLD....makes my days back in Vermont look tropical...)
Anyways...wyah, Bush and his Grand Delusions...I wish we could send him to Mars...
Just finished watching a nice hour with Howard Zinn on C-Span. "Civil Disobedience" and lots of it...the "orthodox channels of democracy are not meeting the requirements of democracy"
It is (past) time to take it to the streets.
I'm not sure Americans have the stomach for that anymore, besides I don't look good in orange.
Really nice blog. I will link to it.
I'm not surprised byn Bush's budget. Let's see what the Dems do.
I know all too well about frigid Northeastern winter nights having experienced many days which never exceeded -02 degress. If I could fax or Email you a space heater I would immediately, Enigma.
I'd be willing to send a portable one to you by Fedex but they're Republican corporate whores and it may not get delivered. Both UPS and USPS are store fronts for the Bush cronies collecting personal information about individuals and turning it over to the brownshirts in Homeland Security.
Many of you posting to Enigma's lastest commentary have remarked about potential rioting, distrust of modern communication methods and the need to demonstrate further.
I agree with all of your assessments but implore you to proceed with caution without being impulsive. We're at war with the neocons which calls for a rational strategy that protects people's personal civil liberties.
Since they're unwilling to negotiate with us, we must be smarter than them in the tactics we use to take back our country. They'd love for the people to resort to violence so they can brand us as an unruly mob.
I think a National Week of Work Stoppage would be a more effective means of countering right wing obstinance. Cripple business where it HURTS ... their profit margins.
Your reaction is probably that I can't afford to stay home for a week w/o pay or risk being fired. My response is, "CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TOO ?"
The labor movement of the 1920's took back America from the Robber Barons then and it's time to show them again who's BOSS.

Hurry back Enigma ... we all miss you. While everyone waits for her return to fulltime Blogging though, you have an standing invitation to hang at my place from which you can freely agree or dissent with my opinions.
Peace,
Cosmic
Hey ...watching the game and reading blogs...waiting for the Thaw...
anyways...
CM: thanks for the warm thoughts...and the "virtual heater"...I will be okay...6-6 and I are snuggled down and watching...I hear you about Bushco- we need a Smart Strategy...we need to out- think these SOB's....but we do also need to let the Dems know this is NOT what we voted for- sitting on their hands apathy is NOT what we want or NEED....at ALL...
DADA: I too caught part of Howard Zinn....he is amazing....and dead right about the situation...I saw also that he has a new book...and I think more and bigger protests are needed - for sure...
Renegade...
Come to the Enigma Cafe anytime...nice folks here...and some humor, some angst, some wisdom....with a cup of coffee...
I could be wrong, but I think he wants mass protests. Then he can institute either Martial Law or invoke the Insurrection Act and have Blackwater USA come in as a security force to put down the uprising.
Don't forget all the concentration camps Haliburton built on a no bid contract. All ready and waiting to be filled up.
Take care and
God Bless.
I hear you anon...I don't think that we should give up on Mass Protests- Not yet- they have worked all over the world...and we have a RIGHT to Assemble still...
I do think we need to re-think WHERE we protest- and WHEN...I think that is the issue....Please think about places it has worked....Ukraine when their Elections were mucked with ...remember- they camped out and waited for a peaceful resolution...
What the hell is wrong with these people? I'm afraid that's the $64 question. Answer it, and politics makes far more sense.
You nailed this Enigma, it is genocide. A friend once told me she thought this government had an evil plot to kill all the old people. Well, they want to kill the poor people, regardless of their age. I will never forgive Bill Clinton for hurting welfare mothers, ever. I am with Molly, let's bang and let's bang loudly. I despise Hillary's stance on this war. I think it will be Obama or Kucinich for me all the way, and I will run deeper and harder than I ever have in my life for either one of those men.
BTW, WGS party started at GA.
You keep fighting this good fight, your energy amazes me.
My word verification is fework. I read that as few work. You, my friend work very hard. Your dedication is much appreciated.
Thanks Pursey....wow such kind words...
"fework", I think it could translate FE= iron, and work..
ironwork...I like that...
We'll have to make things happen....
"Never doubt what a small , committed group of people can accomplish"
maraget mead..
( or something like that...)
Do words/acronyms like Architects, fractional banking, WBO, and MIC mean anything? They should - as it seems as though these are the powers that are in control.
Exceptional times, indeed.
If it were up to me...off with their heads. Wait, Robespierre already did that. I guess I'll settle for impeachment.
love the stones...thanks for the video
sipping on my herbal tea here -- contemplating the mess baby bush has gotten himself into with no hopes of daddy bush bailing him out this time
and as far as people rising up -- if you shut down tv stations all over the country at the same time..then people would walk outta their houses....zombie-like to a new world (ok, i can hope here)
at my town's protest last weekend, the resident loudmouth/crazy man was present. (he wasn't always that way.) he kept yelling "general strike" during the speeches. and although many found him bothersome and rude... he was totally right. if this nation had the balls to NOT WORK and NOT SPEND JUST TO SPEND, the feds would take notice.
i honestly feel that it's time to move beyond niceties and politeness, because they are not listening to the people's voices.
the really, really sad thing is that our kids and so on will be paying for this mistake. not us.
ANNIE; I am with you- it is way past niceties and oh-so-polite....we need to come up with SOMETHING THAT WILL DENT THE CONSCIENCE OF THE FEDS...
AZ: that song has been bouncing around my head for days....well, the Media walked out on us a long time ago- truthfully....MSM and the journalists have abandoned us and the their Duty....
FRED: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS???? funny...and in a way too late..None of them are thinking with their heads....Bush and Cheney are heartless wonders- and there is only one brain between the two of them....hmm, about impeachment...yup..some kind of justice is needed for this Illegal War.
DRKNOW: I am trying to follow you- but I am not so sure we are able to- are you saying that this whole War was Orchestrated ? that there were Architects ? that I do believe- Are you saying that all the decisions are are based on MONEY ? that I do believe....
Have a look at this interesting documentary. Should you wear your tin-foil hat? You decide...
