2007 - Look Back in Anger !!!

... Americans seem to be a people with a very short memory span and a very limited sense of outrage. I don’t know what it will take to shake them into any semblance of collective outrage or united action. I do know however, that I am angrier at the close of this year than at the end of any other ear that has passed.

As you might well imagine, I am furious with the usual suspect:: the corporate thugs, the PNAC warmongers and the religious fanatics who have wreaked such irreparable havoc on us all. TVNL has raged against what they have done to destroy the lives of so many.. But this time around I am ever more unforgiving in my despair and pessimism because of what has NOT been done by those who could have and should have lived up to the promise of change
.
It was a year of stunning inaction, during which so much that might have been done, and that could have been done, was NOT done, 2007 was heralded as a year of hope and progress. It was not. At year’s end, the crimes of the Bush administration still were business as usual. At year’s end, every outrage against the nation and the world remained uninvestigated and unpunished.

And by the year’s end, members of both parties had joined forces to do nothing at all that might lead to a Happy New Year for anyone..

Just think about it for a minute. Here are some of the issues that could have been dealt with in 2007 and are OFF THE TABLE for any legislative action as I write. Even if every one of them had failed to pass a divided Congress, in the very least, the facts finally would have been placed in the public arena. In the very least, they would not have been swept under the proverbial rug of our shamefully intimidated and cowardly elected legislators.

As 2008 begins, here are SOME of the issues that have endangered our democracy and the lives of so many around the world. For all of 2007, there was no action, nor were there any plans to:

Treat the New Year with all

Treat the New Year with all of the disrespect it deserves, but be happy about it! Disrespect, like dissent, can bring about positive change.

A Happy, Healthy, Prosperous, New Year...

to all the members and lurkers of this site. Confusion to our enemies, foreign and domestic and defeat to the criminals within our goverment.

After all the vileness(American style)that has happened to our country and world, perhaps this New Year will bring about the start of the return to the sanity, the rule of law, and the respect for others that we used to enjoy.

Best wishes to all.

The greatest derangement of the mind is to believe in something because one wishes it to be so.

Hope so Grinch

Perhaps we will look back in joy at the conclusion of 2008; how strange and wonderful that would be, ( if not, anger will have to suffice once again). Joyous wishes to start with though.

A Happy and Healthy New Year to everyone here.

There has been a lot of disapointment and anger within our party
this past year.

I remain optimistic that this new year will bring positive change
and a good Democrat to the WH.

GENE LYONS: NO MORE NICE GUY...

Finally, the strong voice out of Arkansas comes up with a winner of an editorial. Gene has been one of this administrations staunchest critics throughout the BushCo misadventure.

Gene lays it all out. Points the finger at the crap coming down and, like Zeus, throws thunderbolts.
