Re: Timeline for the upcoming week
Time-line if you wish to avoid war fever
Sun Jan 26: - Football avoid all pre-game and half-time celebrations and hope the commercials are too expensive to be wasted on flag waving bullshit. Turn off television for the week.
Mon Jan 27: -expect another "big news" revelation to amount to nothing.
Tue Jan 28: -Repubs stand and Dems sit until forced to look patriotic.
Wed Jan 29:- read the news and the State of the Union speech and remember how easily Clinton also manipulated you. You realize that Republicans actually believe that Marx was right, excess productive capacity must go into war making. You begin to wonder why the free market GOP is increasing payments to folks that farm in the desert.
Thu Jan 30: - Rush to preach on smoking gun that doesn't exist.
Fri Jan 31:- Bush's numbers bounce after tuesdays empty rhetoric, air war launched before preparations finished. Osama gets exactly what he wanted, Oceana vs East Asia. War is Peace.
Sat Feb 1: - lots of good edited video of clean modern victimless war.
Sun Feb 2: - Tim explains how this war makes up for all the shirking and how we now have to shut up so our boys can kill and be killed without any qualms. Too bad my tv is still off.
