MMMMM... my favorite dish... Chickenhawk Supreme. So we spent the 1970s and '80s enduring some truly nauseating propaganda flicks, mostly on the order of "We could have won VietNam, if only" and a long string of excuses that even though the country was bombed repeatedly, one accounting of it is that there was more aerial bombardment of VietNam (south, not that it matters, we weren't at war with either the south or the north) than was used on Japan in World War 2. I can't vouch for that but we sure are paying a lot of money, still, for all the expended ordnance... even with that "our hands were tied and we couldn't do all the damage we wanted to do" say WHUUUTT? But we didn't unleash Steven Seagal or Sly Stallone or John Wayne or Ah-nuld Governater or Walker, Texas Ranger on them. And of course the Red Dawn farce, (still gets replayed on Cable TV) (no, really, people with enough IQ to work a remote control actually WATCH that crap... voluntarily) and in anticipation of our eventual losses in MesoAmerica, (Grenada has once again voted itself Marxist, Cuba is still Marxist, Castro is still alive, Daniel Ortega is still in government office in Nicaragua, and the only Government Leaders who were killed or imprisoned were "our" allies, like Manny Noriega and the Medellin Cartel bosses...) Now Fox, the Roosting Place of so much of America's Finest flock of ChickenHawk, is remaking the 1985 movie "Commando" And announced it on the anniversary of the Fall of Saigon. Coincidence? Perhaps to create and recreate the delusional illusion that America Really Won in VietNam, MesoAmerica, and now, Iraq and Afghanistan. Since delusions of Victory are all they have to sell, can one really blame them? Well, Hell yes, I can! These FreakTards have been, and their ideological Fellow Travelers spanning nearly 6 1/2 decades as well, pushing war after undeclared war on the rest of the World in the name of Uncle Sugar and for the benefit of their Corporate Whoremasters ever since the final day of World War 2, SHAME! There hasn't been a single declaration of War by the Congress of the United States since December of 1941. There also hasn't been a single day gone by that a shot was not fired in anger by at least one American soldier acting under orders. Not a single day without American war-mongering. They compound their aggressively Evil Agenda by refusing, themselves, to participate in the wars they create and prolong. And refuse, to a "man", to pay a fair share of their so-called "earnings", the Blood Money they obtain from promoting having Other Human Beings Murdered, in taxes. Billionaires like Rush Limbaugh and Rupert Murdoch and Bill O'Reilly, lesser "stars" like Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity, who don't make as much as O'Reilly and Limbaugh, (yet) Still take home more pay in a year than a construction WORKER could ever hope to make in a couple of decades of Real Work.

Howard Zinn, historian of mainstream
"If you work through the existing structures you are going to be corrupted. By working through a political system that poisons the atmosphere, even the progressive organizations, you can see it even now in the US, where people on the “Left” are all caught in the electoral campaign and get into fierce arguments about should we support this third party candidate or that third party candidate. This is a sort of little piece of evidence that suggests that when you get into working through electoral politics you begin to corrupt your ideals. So I think a way to behave is to think not in terms of representative government, not in terms of voting, not in terms of electoral politics, but thinking in terms of organizing social movements, organizing in the work place, organizing in the neighborhood, organizing collectives that can become strong enough to eventually take over —first to become strong enough to resist what has been done to them by authority, and second, later, to become strong enough to actually take over the institutions." --Howard Zinn, Anarchist, in 2008 AK Press interview
Zebulon Pike was an Illegal Alien (In the No Hater Zone)
posted this on Craigslist... Date: 2008-05-25, 1:31AM MDT Just to remind people, since the Old Colorado City Territory Days celebration of colonialism and Imperialism is going on... Young Lieutenant Pike, and his merry crew of saboteurs, spies and setup crew for the eventual Yanqui invasion, came to Colorado when it was SPANISH territory. Not that the Spanish had actually asked permission when they took over, but hey, according to the "Well, Illegal Immigration is against the Law, so the Immigrants are Felons" argument should apply equally, yes? Pike and his crew encountered troops (the Spanish version of I.C.E., Da Fuzz, cops, whatever, but they had at least paper title to be here, and Pike didn't) and did what any Honest, True, Red Blooded American Officer and Gentleman would do... he lied his ass off. Said he was lost. Never mind the surveying equipments, wagonload of freshly drawn and annotated MAPS, and Native guides who knew damned well which invading force was occupying the Springs at the time. Heavens no, it's not like a Mapping Expedition (into a foreign country no less) could possibly know where in Hell they're located. I wrote this just to remind all you sissy ass, titty baby fearful wannabe terrorists who have been crying and bitching and snivelling about somebody actually having a darker complexion or speaking with an accent, or in a different language, actually sharing YOUR personal universe, of which, no doubt, you racist Hate Freaks own every cubic inch... To remind you that your own titty-baby whining arguments can be used against you as well. If you want to live in America, learn the damn language... in this area the languages are Cheyenne, Blackfoot, Lakota, Uintah and Athapascan (Apache and Navajo), and those are just the largest language groups. You freaks who want to impose "English ONLY" are also insisting that we of the Native Persuasion not be allowed to speak OUR languages, and even in our own homes. Your leaders actually do say exactly that. Because (so they claim) speaking in a non-English "foreign" language like Cherokee would "hold the children back when they go to school and later when they join the Slave Labor Forces" I should clarify that, Cherokee isn't actually a language, it's a dialect of Muskogeean. Those of you who cry and snivel the longest and most fervently about "wetbacks" not speaking English well, (I've noticed) don't bother to learn to actually read and write or even speak English FLUENTLY yourselves... and it's the only language you ever learned. I realize that you sissies will spend hours of your time debating a phantom issue, you're very good at that game. I'm personally not going to even read your insignificant ignorant replies to this post. You'll be screaming (figuratively speaking), Ranting, insulting, calling me a LiberalIntellectualCommiePinkoNiggerLovingFagJewBoy or whatever, and either challenging me to a fist fight (I would win) or threatening to kill me and my entire family. I'm used to such childish threats and tantrums. Get over it. Location: In
