Asking for a Dictator

Mr Bush has costructed an excellent foundation for a dictatorship. A less benign President than Obama could turn the thumbscrews on the population. His controlled media would convince ordinary citizens of his good will. Who would notice the FEMA concentration camps bulging with malcontents? Who would care if Iran, North Korea or Pakistan became water vapor? Who would object to turning in dollars for Ameros? Who would report Guantanamo Bay filling up with Congressmen, stock brokers, bankers, CEO's, civil servants and bureaucrats?

Why Should John McCain Enjoy the White House

Many people claim he is the only white man in the race for President. Certainly, he is the traditional choice.

On Election Day the outsourced factory worker will leave his five diseased children in the trailer. His wife will remind him to grab his cup of coffee at the public cantina and to bring back a carton of beans from the soup kitchen.

Their children are hacking from the asbestos in their FEMA home. His car a memory, he looks forward to a long walk to the polling place. Perhaps the air will restore his lungs.

He can’t afford cigarettes until the Chinese pimp makes his next payment.

Who would have guessed McCain would survive long enough to be elected?

"I think we've fully addressed anybody's concerns," Chertoff added in remarks last week to bloggers. "I think the way is now clear to stand it up and go warm on it."
