Mr. Pitts,
Wow, the Party is on a roll!
In a rush to give yourselves a raise= cost-of-living adjustment before a 1-month vacation? A one-month vacation? Really? How about a 1/12 reduction in pay instead? How about doing something to strengthen the dollar by securing jobs at home ? No, that's your job. You don't deserve a raise if for no other reason than that you took $90K from DeLay. That really matters to me: Half your salary from a thief.
Instead, I suggest you get a job for that month, maybe practice earning a living- you'll have to start soon if you don't start working for Pennsylvania. I haven't had any time off since 2001, and I resent that your crew can't do anything but cut taxes, raise deficits, and bandy about the meaningless social issues your party gets elected to blabber about. That's it, right? You pander to the emotional social-control zealots uncomfortable with change- uncomfortable with the present, so you can follow the devil into the Armani boutique. Right? Gotta be, that's what you do.
Maybe you're in the wrong line of work. Lobbyists like DeLay make out very well, and they only have to be as qualified as a Congressman.
The Texans running the Congress and the Administration are stealing money faster than they can collect it, since they've absolved themselves from Taxation. They've also tried to outlaw death in the Schiavo case. Death and Taxes being the only things we're taught are true, it's fitting your party works so hard to overrule them.
Congress has failed to act on issues Americans care about, like skyrocketing gasoline prices, health care, and the ethics scandals. Congress is listening to the interests of big money contributors and lobbyists and not to us, the taxpayers. That's why I oppose the congressional pay raise this year.

That Damned Party
Mr. Pitts:
I got a letter from you this week claiming the $8 Trillion deficit compels you to vote in favor of trimming the budget of some monies typically going to PBS. Now I see your colleagues don't care about such concerns, planning to dedicate about ten times that much to Sugarland, TX and a few companies in a position to affect and benefit from the rising price of energy. All this slipped in with the so-called Energy Bill.
I know you owe Mr. DeLay a lot of consideration, since he gave you $90,000, but your integrity is at stake. Your party's fiscal responsibility is at stake. Your job is on the line here.
Fix it. Get that non-voted amendment out of the so-called Energy Bill.
I'm appalled to read that Tom DeLay inserted a $1.5 billion giveaway to oil companies like Halliburton and Marathon Oil after the energy bill was negotiated between the House and Senate. I urge you to do everything you can to see that this provision is removed from the bill.

Joe Pitts is a chump
Got a letter from Representative Pitts. His stamped signature acts as a postage stamp.
Said he's sorry we have a difference of opinion, there's just too much deficit to keep funding the CPB, nearly $8,000,000,000. Of course the Bush administration inherited a balanced budget and didn't grow the military yet. Shrunk it. And the Republican Congress wrote the laws that spent the red. And mortgaged ironically our functioning government to Red China. Whee! This is fun!
He didn't mention the $90,000 he took from Tom DeLay, and neglected the topic of the VP's residuals from the company walking away with tens of billions of unaccounted dollars in Iraq. Yes, Cheney, the Republican Vice President. Believe it or not, he's still getting paid by Halliburton. Or is it KBR? Bechtel? Not sure, the smog is quite thick.
But back to Pitts: He represents a Texan. He's a PA Congressman for the party that took a massive surplus away from America. Out with him.

Roberts v Voting Rights
Why would the Reagan administration instruct a Solicitor to work at narrowing the applications of the Voting Rights Act?
And why would George Bush, the most contested US President in history, nominate Roberts to the Supreme Court after Roberts' decades as a business lobbyist and generally fringeoid Federalist Corporate Libertarian?
Because in his heart, Bush believes nothing. Just wants to corner enough cash to isolate himself and his peers from the coming environmental/geopolitical economic crises he's fomenting by empowering China to leverage more control over US foreign and domestic policy by owning the mortgage to the US Capitol.
Wheee,
Joe

A little-known Commandment
"Thou shalt not bear false witness"
Okay, so Roberts is a great guy if your a Christian Jihadist. But you have to ignore that rule. Because he's already a liar.
That's one commandment I try to live by. I don't want to live in an alternate universe while interacting with y'all, so I try to make sure the things I claim are true in my imagination AND on the ground on the planet.
This is a problem I have with the Political Christianics: They don't act like Jesus, and they pick, choose, parse and apologize their way through the Ten Commandments. And they say "They're Commandments, not suggestions," relying on the Power of Suggestion to insinuate by repetition their participation in a community of Faith.
But if they have faith, if they have trust in the Lawd (can't pronounce it respectfully, can't write it in English. Put a name on it, you gain control over it. It.) they'll wait for the WILL to be realized and stop voting. And I really hope the give back some of the extended life expectancy they've gotten from Science.
And I hope they give back the tens of Billions of DOLLARS Halliburton et al have swindled while recouping profits lost during Dick Cheney's tenure as boss over there.

You're doing it again:
Open letter to the media and journalism industry:
Remember when the war happened, and looking back we were unable to find anything in print critical of the war, demanding consistent rationale? And when we went to war to find the WMD Rumsfeld sold Saddam we didn't find them? And the journalists were pious and said they should have been more outspoken, actually reporting things they went out to learn?
Well, the whole Federalist Society thing came up today. The lying White House demanded a retraction, but more evidence that Roberts is interested in restoring a monarchy or at least a stratified society on our soil has come up. No outlets appear to be critical of anything new the President is trying to get away with, and the gushing grinning coming from the Pat Robertson crowd of for-profit professional lobbies doesn't appear to distract them.
But the Rove thing is still in play. And it's being ignored. Karl Rove violated American National Security Law, compromised our interest AND worked to further Bush's goal of nuclear proliferation by backwater bad guys like Pakistan.
You're forgetting it: You weren't going to be dumb cheerleaders any more.

President George H W Bush
How does the former President Bush feel about the Valerie Plame imbroglio?
As the former spook-in-chief, he was understood to be very sensitive to the security and HR needs of his subordinates over there. On the George Washington Memorial Parkway, there's an exit to the GHWBush Center for Intelligence. The irony there is too thick to spread, but hey- A George Bush Center for Intelligence might look like the Crayola Factory in Easton, PA. They have tours for kids.
I want to hear from our former President about why his son makes kissy face with the Saudi Prince. Did he ever come down to the basement and catch George and his buddy Rove practicing their kissy faces together, in case a real girl would ever give..
It's hard not to write plain nasty things about them. But I heard from Colin Powell, he went on the Daily Show, clenched his teeth and smiled the impossible smile, reviewed the GOP talking points and tried to dodge the absolute shame he helped Bush bring upon our country.
Now I want to hear from the wimp.

Republican = Apologist
Santorum bravely deflected the Church Sex Scandals toward the 'liberals'. Apparently, the liberal social mores of our oldest Puritan city encourage bestiality and privacy, which Santorum came from Virginia to defend Pennsylvania against.
He's a chump.
His wife should go home and make some cookies, and a Santorum daughter can look forward to a life of low-class toil. Because he works against everything a liberated human should want.
He's a fag.
Santorum is Latin for "Phony whore".
All kidding aside, Rick Santorum's another asshole Republican excusing the behavior of his allies and casting blame for their atrocious misdeeds on his political enemies. We enemies of the Apologist Republican Party ironically encourage the free trade of thought and discourse. And privacy. I bet Santorum has plenty of personal security, lots of high gates to protect his privacy, even though he got on the Senate floor and argued there's no such Constitutional right.
Let's look VERY HARD at the public Republican. They always say the opposite of their real message...

Rove, row your boat
Karl Rove and his little friend George have no interest in our security. They're all about politics.
Rove committed a crime, and the Republicans are doing the same thing they always do: muddy the water.
Stay on task: Republican apologists must be removed from our government. They represent nothing but excuses, why the economy tanked, why they can't get bin Laden, why they didn't arm the soldiers they sent, why they turned Powell into a laughing stock when he did that stupid marionette dance for the UN. Accountability is the last thing they want and the first thing they promote.
They excuse Bush for lying to the world and sending hundreds of thousands of Americans to Iraq to generate SERIOUS military-industrial complex revenue. They excuse Cheney for lobbying hard to help out with the profits of the contractor he ran ineffectively during his brief civilian career. They excuse Rice for saying, "It wasn't my job" when asked why she wasn't on top of FBI and CIA reports and memos entitled "Osama Bin Laden is going to Hijack a Plane and crash into something Important." They excuse Frist for coming to the Senate as a secular pragmatist and converting to Wingnut to gain a solid constituency, prostituting his faith for money. They excuse DeLay for violating every rule of the Congress and of election finance and even of his own state. They excuse Eric Rudolph for bombing random passersby. Now, the architect of the coup, Karl Rove is getting a pass for violating a sacred trust and injuring our national security by outing Plame and helping the proliferators of weapons.
Helping the bad guys? Of course: These Republican leaders love our enemies more than they do us. Make no mistake. WHen they go off topic, stay on task: Rove committed a high crime. Eventually, one will have a hissy fit and go off script.

Where are they now?
Where is:
Karl Rove's Prison Uniform?
The money Halliburton/KBR overbilled us and lost oversease?
The Iraqi money in the Iraqi Bank when Bremer took over ?
President Bush's military records, DUI records?
Where are the criminals executing for Nixon in Watergate?
Oh- I know where they are=> SPEAKING FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
Where is the guy who helped Reagan
1)Steal US missiles
2)Smuggle them into Iran
3)Trade them to Iran for money and hostages
4)Take the money to fund illegal operations in South America?

SPEAKING FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
David Duke for Supreme Court? Why???
The administration and the Republican Party have been working hard to marginalize their opponents. They've been working hard to increase the conflict everywhere they can identify wedge issues. It's important that these politicians stop it. They have to realize they're working for the country, representing a diverse population.
Far-out Fundamentalist cries for another polarizing move on the national and even more permanent level illustrate the disconnect. They want to marginalize the majority of Americans who live as individuals, work for progress and want the Constitution to continue defending their rights.
Bill Frist and his allies in that sect want a religious test for office, a fundamental contradition to the Constitution, and they claim strict constructionist leanings. They either lie or they don't understand the difference between their words and their works. Either way, they are an enemy to freedom and our nation. Traitors to the Constitution.
Mr. Bush's legacy will be one of discord and ruin if he chooses to brush off the realistic-minded among us with another wet kiss to the far right, and we'll all suffer when we have no defense against drug companies, insurance companies, real estate companies, all the industries freed to influence our government instead of us. We'll have the right to practice a Christian religion of our choice, but lose the right to do something worthwhile with our time.
Whether it's religion or business, the slant of this government reflects only a slim but animated segment of our society, and is gradually diminishing the value of the individual in our country in favor of the Bloc and the Lobby.

The News These Days
If you were on the planet last week, you probably heard there were bombings in London, and then heard again, and then again. Speeches were made, short and impromptu at first, but becoming more consistent with practice. London has a history of being tough and isn't likely to go soft.
What else? We learned that among the traitors in the White House, the unelected oft-wedgied Karl Rove was the boss behind retaliation against Ambassador Wilson's downright public attempts to pull the wool off our eyes. I'm sure he'll get tough love. But then again, the Bush Justice Department let Eric Rudolph off with just a lifetime of free meals and cable TV. And the chance to get a law degree and publish, preach, lead. They should cut both their heads off- ROve and Rudolph. To let them walk after killing indiscriminately and disclosing national security secrets sends a tacit message to the extremists that it's okay. Bush is complicit. Haven't seen Cheney in a while...
Other stuff? Well, Reagan appointee Justice O'Connor surprised us all with a retirement. And the Christian Fun-go-mentalist movement is going apeshit. They hate God for creating us with Free Will, even denying it. They demand the government take our rights away so we can't sin. And they want the Bush appointee for the O'Connor slot to promise to help.
Far from uplifting the human condition, they want to deny it. They lie, they cheat, they move from Virginia to become professional Senators (Santorum) in other people's states, they imagine and promulgate a history with radical cultural figments. And they probably simply don't know the science behind germ theory or natural selection. I'm sure one of the DC landmarks they want to destroy is the Smithsonian Institution's Natural History Museum, with all those satanic dinosaur props.
Everything they do is wrong. God damn them.

Trumped
Interesting that our property can now be seized not for petty non-crimes like marijuana possession but for the commercial interests of real estate development.
This country is getting pretty fucked up. Regime change time?

Faith in Science
We're living a lot longer than we did (we are a species) in the Middle Ages, when the world was flat, the universe revolved around it, and every aspect of our society was influenced by the politicians through their use of the Church of the Fear of the Unknown.
We're living a lot longer, not because of our faith in a deity, or because we're marching under the direction of the preacher industry. It's because we killed millions of rats. And because we've disproven, discarded and replaced the dictates of the preacher industry. The Germ theory of Disease cured the concept that God wants us to be sick. The heliotropic solar system cured the notion that we occupy the center of the Universe. Emancipation argues that God doesn't supply our lot in life and demand we subjugate ourselves to our betters.
If your faith is such that higher education and science threatens it, then you should surrender your likely longevity. Do it now.
