Month: October 2005

I know all of you frog marchers are pink clouding lately, and of course it is all rumor and nothing solid has happened yet as I have reminded some.  My mescaline arrived today though!  Sorry I’ve been so hard on ya’ll.  You guys have lovingly embraced me in my I HATE IRAQ AND THE WHOLE THING IS KILLING ME CRUSADE and I am forever grateful and would like to share my favorite rumor with you guys.

In the movie Godfather, Michael Corleone tells the Senator from Nevada who is trying to shakedown the Don,
“Senator, there is not much difference between you and me.You think you are better than me and my family and look down on people like me. But in the end we are in the same business. I am just more open about it than you”.

At the time I saw that movie I felt like most of us did that this is an exaggeration.The United States stands for the rule of law and no part of our government would intentionally set about to violate the law either domestically or internationally. That illusion has been shattered for me personally with the ascension of George Bush.

It was a shock for me to realize that our elections could be fixed with the collusion of the Supreme Court and the officials in Florida to enable this impostor to steal the office of the President.It was also a shock when Cheney, the real Don of our government could stonewall all demands to see the proceedings of his so called Energy Task force and carry that over to stonewalling the investigations into the 9/11 tragedy.
Each and every step that Congress took to seek accountability from this administration has been thwarted with accomplices in our Press and Media.

The Democratic Party which should have been vocal with its criticisms of all these and more was silenced in part by the Anthrax threats, which, I believe, did not originate from the ether.Every institution, including the SEC was coopted in implementing the agenda of this racketeering organization which goes by the name US Govt.

The ultimate for this gang was the war it unleashed on a country that had no means to harm us, mainly to prop up the image of a cowardly President Usurper.The way they slandered Max Cleland and John Kerry shows the level to which they would stoop to enforce their rule.

The Judith Miller saga tells us that our so called Press has become a propaganda arm of this criminal enterprise.The Jack Abramoff-Tom DeLay scandal tells us money and power are like aphrodisiacs for these people.Their ability to fix elections in their favor and thus control the Congress has now subverted our Constitution for good and only Patrick Fitzgerald stands between us and these criminals.

Each day I pray that God grant Pat Fitzgerald the courage and fortitude to defeat these scum and restore our nation’s pride in itself.Our nation already owes a deep debt to Fitzgerald and his bringing these criminals to justice will earn him our gratitude forever.

I know – there is no housing bubble; it’s all a liberal fantasy to scare people.  At least, this is what people on the political right say.  According to one pundit on Fox news, there are a few markets that are slightly overpriced but nothing to worry about.   (The FDIC has contradicted this assessment.)  Well, the reality is there is a housing bubble and it is very dangerous for many reasons.  

I went to a fundraiser for Pat Murphy last night. I’m getting to know Pat and his campaign staff pretty well. He is a great candidate and his staff is filled with excellent people. If they keep buying me drinks, I may even endorse him. LOL.

Pat is running for Congress in the 8th district of Pennsylvania. The district covers most of Bucks County, which is a very affluent county that runs along the picturesque Delaware River. The river serves as the border with New Jersey.

His opponent Mike Fitzpatrick is one of Tom DeLay’s flunkies:

If you want to contribute to the BooMan bar tab you can do so here.

From Pat’s bio:

Continuing with my tradition of a groaner at the end of the week to lighten the mood.  Hope it gives you a chuckle.

By the way, I watched Hardball last night and some GOP strategist was on. He said that since Fitzgerald isn’t going to make a report, it indicates that there won’t be any charges.  Talk about creating your own reality.  No one knows what will happen, but the Republicans seem to be in wish mode.
