Thursday, February 23, 2006I really need to weigh in on this asshole Gordon England by John in DC - 2/23/2006 07:42:00 PM

Joe, in a post below, quotes our illustrious Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England:

If the furor over the port deal should go on, Mr. England said, it would give enemies of the United States aid and comfort: "They want us to become distrustful, they want us to become paranoid and isolationist.Now, my mom reads this blog.

And I don't like gratuitous profanity because it's the easy way to evoke emotion when you don't have the right words. But Gordon England, you're a total asshole. How fucking dare you invoke Osama and September 11 in order to get us to support an administration policy that is in fact CONTRARY to our national security interests? Just because Bush is in bed with the Middle Eastern oil producers we're supposed to roll over and play dead while you guys just give away that store to your petro-buddies? How fucking dare you preach to us about being distrustful and paranoid? You son of a bitches have raised distrust and fear to a high art. You have repeatedly violated the legitimate shock and horror Americans felt after September 11, abused our collective grief and pain and psychosis in order to push your own petty, personal political goals, and now that we catch you red handed, you have the balls to invoke September 11 again?

Gordon England, how fucking dare you, you un-American piece of shit.You want to talk about giving aid and comfort to our enemies? How about your boss single handedly ripping the US Constitution to shreds, spying on American citizens, lying to the American public in order to get us to support his failed wars of convenience that have now so overstrapped our military we're unable to defend ourselves where and when it really matters? How many World Trade Centers do you think Osama would have been more than willing to bomb in order to achieve all that? You people fucking handed Osama the dismantling of our entire democracy, and he didn't even need to fire another shot.

And you lecture us about aiding and comforting the enemy? How fucking dare you even have the nerve to speak to us about what's best for American ports when your God damn administration still hasn't secured container traffic coming into those very same American ports from abroad? What's the latest figure of the percentage of foreign containers shipped into the US that are actually screened (you know, for innocent little things like nukes)? Is it 5% max that gets searched, all the rest just go merrily on their way into our country containing God knows what?And you have the nerve to lecture us about port safety and paranoia?When the president of the United States is so out of touch that he goes on vacation for three days while a hurricane is wiping an entire American city off the map, you better believe I get paranoid.

When the president of the United States is so out of touch that he doesn't even know until the next day that his own vice president nearly killed a man, you better believe I get paranoid.And when the president of the United States runs and hides for the entire day on September 11 while millions of us are forced to turn to Peter Jennings and Rudy Giuliani to be our presidents-by-proxy because George Bush is too much of a chicken shit to show his face for 12 fucking hours while we thought the world was ending, you better believe I get paranoid. Gordon England. Go fuck yourself.

What follows is a poem from my nephew who is a marine is harm's way. I am very proud of him as he performs his duty. These are very dangerous times and I am glad that he is healthy and well. Hope you like it.


I focus on these homeless
trying to find where home is
in them back alley cracks in the mix for real
Trying to lace their shoes so they can click their heals
Trying to find a place where they can get their mail
And in the mean time trying to get a meal
While I clean up these lines trying to get a deal
And most brothers of course are forced to steal
They resort to the steal, still I can't swallow this pill
Not even in gel form, when it rains it hailstorms
And the crime rate jumps every time a male's born
But we've got nine ways to trump be well warned
Most pawn themselves under some king and sell for him
I even see these young with guns in their backpacks
We rarely see twenty-one like a game of blackjack
And those are the sad facts, just knowing the stats stacked
Against you'll blow your hair out blonde like Mad Max
So many from broken homes grown with these scars
It tends to fall apart when you build a house of cards
That's why they say hope floats 'cause black folks can't swim
I navigate that low boat to pull ya'll right back in
We toss these issues like tissues and try to forget
If there's no visual on the issues then how can they exist
And if these issues don't exist, then what's there to admit
And politicians can't be blamed so their platforms legit
But I've held a few positions in one or two soup kitchens
A couple of group missions to give these youth vision
I'm not the type that'll find it amusing to talk about this confusion
And not offer solution And I speak urgency 'cause the emergency's now
So I develop my plan, put my hand to the plow
'Cause folks are panicking now, let's break these fantasies down
We run these black neighborhoods, so why can't they be ours?
'Cause we lack leadership and most black leaders quit
It hard to back your mayor when even he needs a fix
So problems go on unfixed, society grow more unstitched
It's not about being rich, but it's about being rich
In knowledge, in culture, in stature, in pride
To be honest it first has to happen inside
It seems the issue of us isn't dealt with enough
I only look down on you, if I'm helping you up

The Phony Anger

It's amazing to see the phony indignation on the right about remarks made at Coretta Scott King's funeral. She would have said the same things if she could have spoken. The right is wrong on most accounts. The agenda is narrow, self-focused, and definitely unchristian.

Coretta Scott King

I haven't been blogging as much lately, but I have to take this time and say a word about Coretta Scott King. She was definitely a "Queen" of a woman. To take the torch from a martyred husband. Not only did she succeed, but she succeeded magnificently with class and grace. I feel like an old man even though I am not quite 45. So many giants have passed the scene and we are truly the worse for it. Four presidents are sitting on stage paying tribute to this woman. It speaks volumes about her legacy and even more about her character and integrity. May she and her husband rest in peace.
