So. The rest of the Abu Ghraib pictures come out tomorrow, right?
What media source is releasing them, or is that not how it's going to happen?

8. And just how will the Bush crime team get this off the radar screen?
Might they upgrade the terror alert, just in time for the 4th?

10. Exactly. But here's what I think
They will be hoping against hope that people won't pay it any attention. They will be hoping that people are rushing to get out of town for the 4th, and not paying attention to the release of the photos. And they will upgrade the terror alert.

11. LOL, I don't know anyone going out of town.
Or even very far from home. Gas prices are too fucking high for most people to bother!

Oooops!

of weeks. Around the 15th.

I assume they will really hit the press Friday once the ACLU makes its moves.

I have been trying to get ahead of the spin on this by producing a series of NO MORE EXCUSES! END THE ABUSES! protest posters and flyers.

Links for the printable versions and full details on the campaign can be found here:

14. Thank You! I Am Really Working This Issue Hard.
I really think that the phrase is catchy and short enough to make a good rally chant and I understand that TV campers love red. Please do whatever you can to spread the message!!!:bounce:

15. To be honest, I dread it.
Edited on Wed Jun-29-05 09:24 PM by Just Me
I'm sorry. I just fucking DREAD viewing the barbaric shit being committed in my name, as an American. I fucking DREAD having my American good will and good deeds being trashed by bastards who don't give a damn about anything noble or honorable associated with being American.

I just fucking dread it. These bastards are staining me and all the good in our country with their inhumane cruelty. The BushCo/neoCON cabal have hijacked, gagged, cuffed and locked "America" in a dark dungeon. We have to save her.

19. ***HOMELAND SECURITY WARNING***
Intelligence has uncovered a massive plot involving the internet, so the internet must be shut down in the United States. Do not be alarmed, the citizens will still receive their regular programming and news via television media outlets. All is well, tune in regularly to keep updated on soothing feel good news, breaking stories about missing white women, or the next celebrity that needs to be brought down.

The Department of Homeland Security asks you all not to worry, because all is well. The Department of Homeland Security also recommends that citizens should go shopping, erect American flags, erect more American flags, and help our military recruiters by talking to teenagers about the importance of answering a higher calling in life and then offer to drive them to the nearest recruiting station.
