Married on 7.7.7? Yeah, that's cool. But we know a little girl who's going to turn 7 on 7/7/7. That's even cooler, IMO.

Glenn Greenwald summarizes BushCo's legal infallibility:

But this belief in intrinsic legal immunity extends to the entire Bush movement (which has become virtually synonymous with "neoconservatism"). That is what explains the literally endless defense not merely of individual acts of illegality, but of the claimed power to break the law in general. They are an authoritarian movement which believes only in its own power. By definition, none of its Leaders can ever be guilty of anything because to be a Leader of that movement means, by definition, that their actions are always for the Good and that anything which impedes those actions -- whether it be ethics, political principles or the law -- are unjust.

Of course. And as we've seen for the past 6 years, if you oppose Bush on anything, you're presumed to be anti-American, because not only is Bush infallible, he's the living embodiment of America itself.

Can we call them fascists yet?

Are you a hapless Afghani whose name was sold to the U.S. by someone looking for some quick cash and a bit of revenge? That'll be indefinite detention, without charge, recourse or hope of release - and we'll throw in some torture and degradation, for free!

Loyal Bushie, duly convicted of the crime of lying to a Federal Grand Jury and thereby obstructing justice during an investigation of possible treasonous activities ? You're Free To Go!

That's right, Paris Hilton served more time than someone who lied to a Federal Grand Jury.

My, how times have changed:

I don't believe my role [as governor] is to replace the verdict of a jury with my own, unless there are new facts or evidence of which a jury was unaware, or evidence that the trial was somehow unfair.

Worst. President. Ever.

Assuming The Goal is to disqualify American workers so that you can bring in foreign workers who will work for lower wages, here's what you need to do.

Pitchforks, indeed.

You've Been Served

Professional scold and demagogue, Joe Lieberman thinks the US needs widespread video surveillance of public places - just like they have in England. That's great.

What the fuck is wrong with the voters in Connecticut ? Why do they keep electing this douchebag?

Once upon a 1992, someone loved an Ice Cream Girl, and wrote a song about her. Does that mean anything? Does it matter? No, of course it doesn't matter - not to you. Why would you care? Pathetic! Oh shir, you say: it was probably all imaginaree. Well, maybe it waz. But then again, maybe it wazunt. Eye no the reel trooth. But I won tell. No, I won't! And if you axe, I wil juss ignore you!
