Terrorism, Obama, 9/11. Stuff.
Lemme see.
I am kind of watching "Richie Riche's Christmas Wish" with that kid from 7th Heaven. The Christmas Spirit starts NOW, I tell you!
Nathan just got home and is currently taking a shower, which means I have approximately 20 minutes to write whatever I want to.
He gave me several articles to read (that he had printed from his work's database)...all considering the trials of KSM and the other 9/11 terrorists to be had in New York in the US Supreme Court. Basically, taking these people to trial will cause a complete shit-show for residents of Manhatten for the next 5 years, when all they are trying to do is forget the horrors of that infamous day.
Not to mention the intelligence bonanza Al Qaeda is going to have with this. They will scoop up our litigation/waterboarding/spy information with each and every day that this trial airs. PLUS, according to US law, we will have to reveal the names of the people who provided the US with this intelligence, which will force these people who are overseas to give up their cover.
And the biggest thing of all: This should be a military trial. Not a Supreme Court Issue that we allow these terrorists participate in. They are NOT Americans. They deserve to be tried in military court, because what they did was an act of war.
I know Obama thinks he is trying to show that we are the bigger country by providing them with a fair trial, but COME THE FUCK ON. I really, really want to like my president...but this kind of stuff is just blatantly inconsiderate of the true citizens of this country.
Heh.
Sorry. I was kinda of pumped. I should never write after I read political/economical/religious pieces, because I just loose my shit!
In other news: Maurice, my lovely plant...is growing mold on his topsoil. I must remedy this with fungisides and perhaps allow him more light.
Also, getting to Washington was a complete debaucle. I got to the Vienna Metro station only to find that all three of the lots were completely full.
So I drove to DC, and found (the last!) meter space with two hour parking. I need more coins, so I walk to find a vendor who will exchange me some dollars for some quarters. I get them and fill up my meter, only to have it go "out od order" when I put all three of my dollars in.
So I drive my ass back to that garage, and pay $15 dollars to park.
FINDING A JOB IS THE HARDEST (AND MOST EXPENSIVE) JOB OF ALL!
My interview was good. I met with two more people, and the head director...a man...said I had a very pleasant disposition.
