Fuck Us & The Horse We Rode In On...

Had a great trip with Joe Citro, which I'll write about later. Just home last night, and all manner of catch-up and work to see to today, along with savoring at least part of the day with visiting family (our grandchildren!) and friends.

While traveling the hinterlands of New Hampshire, Joe and I were blissfully unaware of the news. Good thing, too, given the daily outrages it provides.

So, the President who thinks nothing of suspending habeas corpus, spying on anyone deemed tap-worthy, and incarcerating all manner and ages 'suspects' in his so-called 'War on Terror' for 5+ years without any arrest or redress, among other unConstitutional suspensions of civil liberties and established law, "concluded that the prison sentence given to Mr. Libby is excessive" (Bush's own churlish words).

Once again, the President who demands all others on Planet Earth be answerable to his absolute whim and rule asserts he and his are answerable to none. This is treason, but Americans tolerate it, having somewhere along the line agreed that President Bush, as none other before him, enjoys the divine right of kings.

May the great God in the heavens, should He or She be there, damn Bush, Cheney, Libby, Rice and their cronies to the very hell they so blithely condemn everyone else to.

But I know that won't ever happen in our lifetime.

Have one hell of a July 3rd, cause the 4th don't mean shit this year...
...except, of course, to Libby.
