Where do we go from here?
So we can kill Americans without due process now while we also kill many innocents with drones.
We hold human beings in Gitmo for 10 years and have NEVER charged them with ANYTHING and this is legal.
We torture.
We have the NDAA.
We have warrantless wiretapping.
We have heavy infiltration of any group that has any opinions different from government views.
We have a guy go to jail for years for a joint while banks who crashed the economy still walking the street.
We have a prison industrial complex.
We have had stagnant incomes for 30 years while the cost of living increases at an insane rate.
We have freedom?

Winter of confusion
Nice cover by ManOwar.
So the crazy winter weather continues. Today high of 69 and tomorrow in the low 70's. Thursday on highs back in the upper 40's. Very odd.
So the U.S. is thinking, most likely doing, of putting a drone base in North Africa. Kind of odd how the latest flare up in the "war on terrorism" is in North Africa and no we are go to build another base.
Really is this where we are at. Complete morons as leaders. What is the next step.

Looks like my parents are not headed to Florida this winter. They are not happy about that.
Time for an english muffin. Later.

Drone on
If a country we are at war with used drones over the U.S. would the U.S. consider that a legal act?
Did you know that the C.I.A. is using drones all over the middle east?
Did you know that the C.I.A. and the D.E.A. are acting as armed forces all over the world.
I guess to be kings of the world we have to kill people and bend them to do things our way or you become expendable.
Watch out, you are being watched by our own government. Are you the next drone attack?
Crazy mid 70's here yesterday. Seemed like spring.
The sky was a wild blue at sunset last night. It was amazing.
Time for toast.

Progressive Obama
This is a great reason why one should see live music.
So I am sure you have heard about the "kill list" that President Obama has created based on reports he gets from assorted intelligence reports. On that list are American citizens, teenagers, alleged terrorists, terrorists and others who he has deemed to be a threat to America. While I have no doubt that a list like this has inhabited many White Houses over our history the fact the President Obama has put Americans on the list should be a great cause of concern for all Americans..
How is it that an American who has not been charged with a crime be killed by his own government? How is it that such an event is even legal? Oh its legal because HIS justice department can twist and mold and shape existing law to fit any argument he wants push forward, just like President Bush did with waterboarding.
What is the difference, not a damm thing. Oh well maybe ones a democrat and one is republican. Oh yea the supposed progressives got all in a twitter about Bush but do not have any balls when it comes to criticizing Obama. Yup that's it.
What makes Obama the decider about these lives? They all should be given due process. The more we kill people without due process the more we become like the ones we claim as enemies.
Drones................ How would we react if another country decided to use drones and strike American targets. Oh there would outrage that we have not seen the likes of. Do you think Pakistan likes drones killing citizens in their country. They have told us to stop using drones in their airspace and we continue to do so.
Do you think this is nation building?
We have created and used Stuxnet and Flame viruses to attack Iran. How in the world do we expect to looked at as leaders of the world when we continue to do these things.
Of course all these things are being done by Christians who claim moral superiority over all others so I am not surprised in the least. If anything I am saddened by our lack of moral leadership and the fact that so few even bother to call President Obama to answer on any of this. You can bet if all these things were done by a Republican that democrats and progressives would be having mass strokes in the streets.
Listen to this, please.
