Corp Media completely whitewashing Negroponte's evil past...
Unbelievable. Once in a while, they concede that he had some "critics" over his tenure in Central Ameica - chortle - but that,"by all accounts, in Washington, he's immensely respected...!!"

THAT SHOULD SCARE THE HELL OUT OF ANY THINKING AMERICAN!

"He enjoys a great relationship with the President..."

I'LL BET!!

But then, apparently, so did another baldy who called himself "Jeff Gannon"...

This is like out of some macabre playbook from when Hitler appointed his criminal band of powerbrokers for the Third Reich. Just astoundingly breathtaking... the depths of corruption grow deeper and deeper.

Oh cry for me Central America!

6. So yesterday's terra warnings were a set up for this
punch-in-the-gut-line?

John Roberts did preface DipShit's intro to the current "press conference" with the statement that many insiders were "shocked and stunned" by this nomination.

Crazy.

Jebus, the lip licking Lizard in Charge is getting his war woody waxed again.

,...intelligence. :cry:

Things are seriously spinning out of control in this country.

We are going to have to get over the emotional response to the word "fascism" because, our country is in the hands of corporatists, criminals and deceitful crooks (who suck up public funds by waging unlawful wars),...the epitome of a fascism in the making!!!

I just wanna go back to bed and throw the covers over my head! :cry:

10. Another insult, another slap in the face, another knock down - where
are the honorable people of this country?

Do they have a rating system that measures blood and rewards them accordingly.

Listen, my son, my daughter, learn how to kill and you will run a country. Study all the killing movies, especially the Schwaarsnagger films, read books, then study the leadership of the United States of America under the right wing and you will become President or Vice President or a henchman/woman.

Is this the last blow to our country? The most despciable act of hypocrisy?

Remember, there are a lot of people out there who don't know where Central America is and who never watched the news when he ran things. There are a lot of youth who don't know that part of our history. Maybe we're included in the ignorance. Now is the lime to wake up and learn and teach others just how far these people can go.

11. Just When You Thought You Couldn't Be Any More Cynical
There you go...This is reality, really? Any publisher would reject a story based on the events of the last few years because it's would be just too unrealistic and bizzarre...A male prostitute "reporter"? The archetict of SA "Death Squads" running US intel? GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY OFFICE YOU LUNATIC! NO READER WOULD BE STUPID ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THAT!

14. All intelligence (and evidence) will be screened for consumption.
In order for the neoCONspirators to get the world war they want, they must have full cooperation of a war criminal: one appointed by the neoCONspirator regime to screen intelligence for purposes of manipulating "the people" and funnelling American blood and treasure into the hands of fascist war-profitteers.

God help us all!!!!
