9/11 Charity Hate-a-thon aka Rantastic Tuesday

[Mangrove]

Next week is year 6 of our allegedly 'Post 9/11' world. A phrase I particularly hate and find extremely mystifying and pointless.

So this is a heads up. For next week will be neck deep in the sublime and the ridiculous....but mostly the ridiculous. Sublime is generally a thin veneer in my experience.

Make a rage noise here.

Isn't that when General Pertreaus (or however you spell his name) is supposed to trot out his status report? 

Further solidifying the non-existant link between Saddam, Iraq, and the actual terrorist group that carried out the attacks. 

This is why when I hear comedians and other people joke about how stupid and inept George Bush is, that it makes me a little miffed.  Because the thing is, he knows exactly what he's doing.  He knows the game he's playing, and he's quite adept at it.  Sure, he sounds like a moron but that's because he's an awful public speaker.  Just casting him off as an idiot ignores and looks past the actual devious thought that goes on in his head. 

His legacy is pretty much in stone.  He has 500 days left.  This, I think, is a very, very dangerous combination.  He's basically the Tampa Bay Devil Rays of Presidents.  He's has no shot at getting into the playoffs, what's he got to lose?

HAY I LIEK TEH DEVIL RAYS! BE TO NOT BE COMPARING THEM TO EL PRESIDENTE.


And for meme sake:

FUCK YOU 4 OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS DIED ON 9/11 BECAUSE THEY WERE NYPD/FDNY. ANOTHER UNCLE OF MINE IS SEVERELY MENTALLY FUCKED UP BECAUSE BODY PARTS RAINED ON HIM FROM TOWER 2!!!


I showed my sister Loose Change the other night. She was a bit unnerved by it actually and asked me if we should trust the government and what she should actually believe. It's conspiracy theory geeking, true, but oft-times her pea-brain can't process information like that, or even acknowledges it exists. Unfortunately I woke a sleeping giant and now she's looking up all sorts of shit on the interweb about it.

You may now return to your regularly scheduled ranting.

anybody willing to play a drinking game
and take a drink everytime the president mentions 9/11 in a speech, to the press, or on any tribute in the coming week?

[tyrannosaurus vex]

[Suu]

we don't hate America, we just wish it could be cooler these days.

[AFK]

I don't hate America.  I just hate a lot of the Americans.

I missed it. What do you mean?

[Chairman Risus]

Just about how he ties 9/11 to Iraq, and how the end with "this is not a time for politics" is three steps away from "go back to sleep, your government knows what is best."

Perhaps its time for another rant about patriots.

"No time for politics"   -Call your CONGRESSMAN and SENATOR...
