"Why shouldn't I work for the NSA? That's a tough one. But I'll take a shot. Say I'm working at the NSA, and somebody puts a code on my desk, something no one else can break. Maybe I take a shot at it and maybe I break it. And I'm real happy with myself, cause I did my job well. But maybe that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East and once they have that location, they bomb the village where the rebels are hiding... Fifteen hundred people that I never met, never had a problem with get killed. Now the politicians are saying, "Oh, Send in the Marines to secure the area," cause they don't give a shit. It won't be their kid over there, getting shot. Just like it wasn't them when their number got called, cause they were pulling a tour in the National Guard. It'll be some kid from Southie over there taking shrapnel in the ass.
"He comes back to find that the plant he used to work at got exported to the country he just got back from. And the guy who put the shrapnel in his ass got his old job, cause he'll work for fifteen cents a day and no bathroom breaks. Meanwhile he realizes the only reason he was over there in the first place was so that we could install a government that would sell us oil at a good price. And of course the oil companies used the little skirmish over there to scare up domestic oil prices. A cute little ancillary benefit for them but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a gallon. They're taking their sweet time bringing the oil back, of course, maybe even took the liberty of hiring an alcoholic skipper who likes to drink martinis and fucking play slalom with the icebergs, it ain't too long till he hits one, spills the oil and kills all the sea life in the North Atlantic.
"So now my buddy's out of work. He can't afford to drive, so he's walking to the fucking job interviews, which sucks, because the shrapnel in his ass is giving him chronic hemorrhoids. And meanwhile he's starving cause every time he tries to get a bite to eat the only blue plate special they're serving is North Atlantic scrod with Quaker State. So what did I think? I'm holding out for something better. I figure fuck it, while I'm at it, why not just shoot my buddy, take his job, give it to his sworn enemy, hike up gas prices, bomb a village, club a baby seal, hit the hash pipe and join the National Guard? I could be elected President."

32% of healthcare dollars go to expenses unrelated to healtcare. Allowing insurance companies to be part of this process only denies 46 million uninsured americans access to afforable health care.

Pelosi Says CIA withheld info on Acts of Torture PART 1 http://www.peace.tv/viewVideo.php?video_id=MTEzMg As a leader in congress back in September of 2002 Pelosi did not live up to her leadership responsibilities. If what she saying is true that an aide was briefed months later. The fact is she then had knowledge of war crimes. http://georgewashington2.blogspot.com Review the war crimes authorized by Dick Cheney. Ever wonder why she did not support impeachment of Bush or Cheney it is because they were holding this failure of hers over her head. http://wexlerwantshearings.com http://indictbushnow.org http://commissiononaccountability.org Please sign the petitions in the websites listed above! Interviewing people like former CIA Europe CIA Operations chief Tyler Drumheller and Former Navy War Veteran Donald Vance will give most of the evidence necessary to hold many of the people mentioned below for war crimes committed! More than 2 dozen warrants for CIA agents exist in Italy (more than 1 dozen exist In Germany) for acts of rendition. 800 828 0498 call congress and tell them you signed the petitions! For some time now it has been an open secret that the CIA has flown terror suspects across the globe and handed them over to governments notorious for their poor human rights record. Critics see this as a ruse to outsource torture seeking to avoid legal responsibility. But not all 'delicate' questioning is delegated to foreign governments. In cooperative countries so-called 'black sites' were set up where US agents had full control but due to fact that the sites were nominally under foreign jurisdiction (like Guantanamo Bay) human rights guaranteed by US law were considered not applicable by the administration. Yet still the agents would assume typically governmental activities like arresting, detaining and interrogating suspects, even under foreign jurisdiction. http://kucinich.us call congress 800 828 0498 Email Nancy Pelosi at americ
