[sarcasticchick]

Are Bush & Co. liars, or delusional?

i'd say both. they're having delusions of grandeur, and lying to get their way.

re: romney - i have serious issues about his statement that he would never have a muslim in his cabinet staff, too. i mean, wtf? that's up there w/ glen beck's question to muslim guest - "how do we know the difference between you and those that are trying to kill us?"

tho, glen beck's a converted mormon as well. maybe it's something in the water.

re: huckabee - he stated today that he would not change what he wrote in '92 re: AIDS and homosexuality, he just might have worded it differently. that's so awesome. cause that statement in '92 was horribly bigoted ... he just would have better worded his bigotry.

see, my thing really isn't about picking a repug candidate - cause i'd never vote for 'em. i'm just (hoping to) educate on why it's such a fucked up idea that one would consider voting for any of those bush-wannabee fools in the repug party because for all they tout 'christian values' and 'american traditional family values', they are none of those things, or if they are, they're so 1890 that they deserve a place in a museum, not the next president. i don't nec agree with many of the dems etiher...but jesus. any of 'em (barring clinton) would be better than a repug. hell, i'd even take clinton, which is really saying something.

i figure if i post enough idiocy, i might get the point across to someone. ;)

yeah - knew that about V for Vendetta - i'm a huge fan *g* didn't really know about it till filming was in progress and my man hugo got involved - but read the GN and adored it - then adored the filmed version as well.

i saw a photo somewhere ... with a bunch of guy fawkes masks in an emergency case (like a fire alarm) and it said something like 'in case of revolution, break glass'.

i loved it. *g*

Exactly; hence, the ref. to Nixon.

1890, or 1690, as they clearly have little regard for the principle of separation of church & state. I'm old enough to remember when some of these types of Jesus freaks were wetting themselves at the idea of a Catholic president--& how distressed they were when Kennedy was elected.

Romney--today Muslims, tomorrow--who? Neopagans? Well, they worship Satan & kill babies, don'cha know.

Huckabee: Consider my mind boggled at how he could believe it's possible to take a statement that essentially identifies a particular group of people as an inherent threat to the well-being of the country & calls for them to be put in concentration camps & re-word it so that the ideas become acceptable. I'm sure that if Mr. Huckabee had been a congressman in 1941, he'd have been a prominent advocate of putting the Japanese-Americans in camps. (The more things change...)

I'm not particularly enthralled by the Dems, who also have their heads up their asses, but they're not quite as far up their colons as the Reps. Hell, I'd vote for Caligula's horse before I'd vote for a Rep today.

I'd heard of "Vendetta" for years, & was familiar with some of Alan Moore's other stuff, but never got my hands on a copy of the GN till after the film. & it was John Hurt & Stephen Fry who sold me on the film--I'm afraid I still don't know Hugo Weaving from Adam.

There you go; we should have our Fawkes outfits next to our emergency radios & handbooks for homemade napalm.
