My good friend Sue over at born into this mess is obviously pissed… disgusted… hopeless:

I’m glad I don’t have a television or I might have broken it if I had to sit through the Liar’s speech. It was hard enough to maintain my composure just reading it.

I feel so incredibly hopeless and helpless. Bush and his supporters have made it clear enough to the world that they really just don’t care what anyone else thinks. Voting doesn’t help. Protesting doesn’t help. Writing to senators and calling the White House doesn’t help. The Forces of Evil have taken control of my country and there is nothing I can do.

The things this man has the balls to say make me shake. I firmly consider myself a pacifist, but I am going to be praying for Bush’s removal from office, because it’s obvious that nothing less than supernatural force will get him out.

This isn’t a Buffy episode. The Assumption happened 4 years ago and the death and destruction have not stopped since then.

This man is a demon. That’s the only explanation I can come up with. You know, I didn’t use to believe in evil, but that’s the only thing that can explain this man’s actions. I really believe that we are on the brink of another fascist-led Holocaust.
I guess this time they’re going after the Muslims.

I’m so afraid.


She’s also created a stirring photo essay using images of Iraq and the words of King George during his inauguration (coronation).

What a bizarre world we live in eh? That so many could hate this man so much and yet there are those that love and support him. I hate Bush too and there are many millions more of course. I think it important to remember though that this man, his cronies, and all that they represent is a power structure that has been in place for many years and it is a structure that we enable year after year. We support it with our inaction and our ignorance. Day after day, year after year, we allow it to exist and we feed it with our tax dollars. We allow them to write the rules of the game and we obediently play along or, better put, we watch the game playout without us. Oh, and did I mention we feed the machine with our tax dollars?

A day will come that will bring an end to this monster. I don’t think that day will be brought about by the desire of the american people and in fact I think they will suffer greatly… time will tell.
