homicidal lesbian terrorist

i see your women caught behind windows
in their homes, behind rows and rows
of bleached and frightened children.
They speak men's words, not their own
except those languages they've
learned to speak in secret
and in dreams, if they've
not forgotten.

Politics are definitely NOT as usual...

The Cali election approaches & I am filled with dread. First, will the recall succeed? If we are lucky, it will not. Second, will Schwarzenegger win? If we are lucky, he will not.

I have been offsite because I have been frantically researching, posting, educating & pontificating on politics. The race for the presidency fills me with what can only be described as "looming dread": it hangs over me like gastric distress about to strike.

One of the most respected economic and political theorists of our time has plainly stated that he sees our Occupation Government as a minority prepared to strike and seize power, a group opposed to fundamental notions of American government like basic democracy.

No kidding. Remember the election they stole? Remember the articles they wrote about the need to invade Iraq to start a world war against America's Enemies - before 9/11? Remember the fact that our own Attorney-General has covered over a traditional statue of Justice because he doesn't like what he sees when he looks at it? These are not erratic coincidences. They are emblematic of the fundamental opposition of the Occupation's leadership to American culture. They want blond children on a grassy hill praying to their breed of Lord and under the politico-religious leadership of their self-appointed minister-masters.

We've had our Reichstag fire: that was 9/11. What will our Kristallnacht be? Our Night of the Long Knives?
