so i'm drinking my morning coffee a while ago, smoking my morning cigarette, my father watching the military and senate making excuses for the disgusting and medieval tortures thrust upon prisoners of war in the middle east. rape, beating, slashing and thrashing etc.... photos of naked bodies in a heaping pile in a less than humane cell reminiscent of the geonocide of the jewish in the 1940's.
"free country america.." "freedom" i keep hearing over and over as protesters in the background begin invoking their FREEDOM of speech with "Fire Rumsfeld!" --- and then, this "free country" so eagerly removes them from sight.
One Man- Robert Byrd. a very old man has his turn to speak. "I have been around since the Truman administration. Truman was a very honorable man. I sit here in this courtroom now and behold arrogance ...." he goes on to say the things that i myself have been yelling at the television. Robert Byrd- a good man. he is the only person that i have seen/heard publicly and efficiently speak such truths, very politely and intelligently 'attacking' Rumsfeld and those bastards running off their mouths full of lies and excuses in the courtroom.
well fuck. not only do i dispise america as it is, and we all know that most of the world always has as well. but now... oh now this "free country" is in for the fucking biggest ride of it's appalling existence. apologies to the king of Jordan shall get them nowhere and the saddest part is- they know it. yet they continue to lie, cover up, and pardon themselves.
fucking americans.
i can't wait to get the hell out of this country!
argh!!!!!!!!
