A rebuttal

This rebuttal is for the people that wrote to me after my last post. I am going to clarify some statements. So to begin with. Please note that I did refer, not only to Bush, but to all the morons in control. Said morons include a huge section of our backwards political system. We are governed by people, people are inherently corrupt, IE., our government is corrupt. These are business men and women that have gotten into office and are now politicians. Think back to the last store manager you worked under and then picture that jackass in control of the Senate, if it doesn't send shivers down your spine then you never worked for Home Depot. As for terrorism, well, it is as real as we make it. Go talk to a guy that grew up around it, talk to someone from El Salvador or Nicaragua, they will tell you all about terrorism and fear and maybe you will not be so scared of the bogieman around the corner for a while. Terror is a feeling, if you don't feel it, it's not working. That is why we are at war with "Terror" and not a specific country, if you can show me the congressional okay to go to war with Iraq, well, then I will remit what I say but you can't because there isn't one. It's the same as Vietnam, war was never declared on Vietnam, that is why it is historically called a "police action". I would also challenge anyone who thinks we are fighting the good fight against terrorists, which our government has sworn to wipe out, to then read just a little bit about what the Rwandan militia has been doing to the people of the Congo for decades. Read about the rapes and murders of women and children, the absolutely horrible atrocities inflicted on these people and then you tell me why America hasn't helped them out recently. I have a good memory, unlike most Americans, and I remember horror stories about that part of the country back when I was six years old. As for the threat of other countries wanting us dead, people have been out to kill us all for years, in the 80's it was the Russians and in the 60's it was Cuba. America has been to war against Mexico, hell we even fought ourselves. So was the burning of Atlanta a terrorist act or was it just part of the Civil War? I have people threaten to kill me at least once a month at work. Is that terrorism? On a final note, when I bring up Bush, people still say would you rather have that pussy John Kerry in office? Well I make it a point to not trust business men or politicians, so I would rather have a deaf mute atheist as Pres., the kinda guy that would shut up and get the job done with the least amount of wasted human lives. However in the interest of putting this "pussy" argument to bed, I would like to say the following. John Kerry was awarded Three purple hearts, a silver star and a bronze star for his actions as part of a swift boat crew in Vietnam. Around the same time, Bush was accepted into the Texas Air National Guard, he was assigned to Ellington Air force Base. Bush never went to Vietnam, this was during a time in our history that more than eleven thousand pilots were called up for duty overseas. I think a President with no apathy towards the men and women that are fighting his fight is a dangerous thing. As far as our rights being infringed upon, it isn't bad yet but it will get there if we let it. Just read this from the pages of the Reichstag Fire Decree and tell me it doesn't shake you up a bit inside.

Articles 114, 115, 117, 118, 123, 124 and 153 of the Constitution of the German Reich are suspended until further notice. It is therefore permissible to restrict the rights of personal freedom habeas corpus, freedom of opinion, including the freedom of the press, the freedom to organize and assemble, the privacy of postal, telegraphic and telephonic communications, and warrants for house searches, orders for confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed.

And lastly, just a snippet from John Adams, from a letter to his wife Abigail, written November 2nd 1800, "I pray Heaven to bestow the best of blessings on this House, and all that shall hereafter inhabit it. May none but honest and wise men ever rule under this roof." Just so you know that was about the White House...
