Pensieri di un lunatico minore

Bush’s War on Americans

The Village Voice has an article by Chisun Lee discussing the Bush Administration’s full scale assault on the Constitution and our civil rights, under the aegis of a war for political gain. As the darkness of war envelopes the globe, those in the Administration skulks and slithers in the halls of power, wrapping their slimey psyche around every debasement of freedom they can imagine. Especially grotesque is the linked report from the Lawyer’s Committee for Human Rights.

What we are facing now is an unbridled passion for the destruction and annihilation of civil rights by an Administration bent on complete control of Americans at any cost. This is not democracy, this is an autocratic regime that will stop at no point in its death-march towards a total authoritarian wet-dream. As the rich get richer, the poor sink further into poverty and the electorate is disenfranchised and demotivated more and more, we are witnessing the ultimate coupe de tat by men who want nothing but their own power, their own egos, their own auto-erotic masturbation with the dismembered shreads of the Bill of Rights

Can you tell I’m running low on indignation, anger, frustration and fear? George Bush is a bigger danger to my future than Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein combined. Even my mom warned me to “watch what I say,” for fear the government would come after me. That about sums it up.
