State department spokesman on CSPAN just called us,
part of the "chattering class". He's making the case for our intervention in Iran. He was asked if the fact that we didn't find WMD in Iraq might hurt the credibility of our analysis of Iran's nuclear program.

So now dissenters are labled the part of the common "chattering class". I shouldn't be surprised, they feel the same way about the "working class". Boeing thinks they can buy their employee's votes with a paid day off.

1. All they want from us
are the lives of our children and what little money we have left. Their priorities are to enrich multinational companies and their CEOs, and to h*ll with everyone else. They aren't even thinking of the consequences to themselves, because an invasion of Iran would, I firmly believe, cause N. Korea to launch a nuclear strike against us-and they would use our own arguments for a preemptive war against Iraq to justify it.

Everything we said about the Iraq war when it began turned out to be true. Ignore us at your peril, asshole.
