expand/collapse Of Kings and Arrogance
by JC Garrett
This King George has decided that the Constitution is no longer worth protecting. He has systematically subverted the letter and spirit of the laws and rights set forth in our most important founding document. He has established "free speech zones" for protesters trying to exercise their first amendment rights at events that he attends. He has attempted to take control of the courts and the justice system by threats and purges of those whom he does not consider to be sufficiently loyal to him. His appointees have been chosen for their politics without regard to their competence. Everything is secondary to his endless quest for expanded executive power.

This new King George has reinstituted many of the practices of the old one, such as the denial of the Great Writ of Habeas Corpus, warrantless search and seizure, the suppression of dissent and free speech, and advancing the notion that the Ruler is above the Law. These wrongs were some of the exact reasons our forefathers warred with Britain. These rights are the very fabric of American history and heritage, and this King George has essentially ripped that fabric right down the middle. A Constitutional amendment on flag burning? No match or flame could possibly cause as much damage to the ideals that flag stands for as the furious inferno that his tyranny has stoked and released upon the world.

expand/collapse Satire: Hillary Vows to Fight on for Edwards' Endorsement
by Andy Borowitz
Just moments after former presidential candidate John Edwards endorsed Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) for president, Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) vowed to "continue the fight" for Edwards' endorsement.

"My friends, I will fight for the endorsement of John Edwards, even if it takes all summer," she told supporters in Louisville, Kentucky. "I have not begun to fight for this endorsement!"

Today's Quote:

"The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion."
- Frank Zappa
Editor's Notes & Rants:

Death toll from earthquake in China now estimated around 50,000. 400 dams crumbling, endangering hundreds of thousands more.

Now, technically, would you define this as "hypocritical," or "schizophrenic?"

Edwards endorses Obama. [AP] So did NARAL.

Obama should be afraid, very afraid. A few days ago an Obama supporter in the Secret Service was threatened with a noose, now Jesse Jackson discovers that during his own campaign, agents were joking about his assassination.

Dictatorship happens. Criminal Congress preparing law to allow feds to seize your computer, if you have even one .mp3 you can't PROVE you own! You know, like that one from a CD you later threw away because it was scratched.

Senate moves forward on legislation that would make dissent — or even thinking about it — an act of terrorism.

McCain campaign threatens to cut of Newsweek's access, for not worshiping McCain enough.

The very definition of treason: Bush pledges allegiance to a foreign power. In a moral universe, he would be tried, convicted, and hanged from the Washington Monument. But don't expect anything to change after the November elections. All three candidates have already sold their souls to the Zionist devil.
