It was bound to happen, sooner or later... though I was hoping for later.

<A HREF="http://www.bluelemur.com/index.php?p=442" TARGET=_blank>Mysterious ‘George W. Bush: Our leader’ Clear Channel political public service billboard graces Orlando freeway
</A>

The statue comes next!

A billboard or a statue ain't so bad, if they keep 'em in FL, where I haven't been in 20 years.

What I fear is the Constitutional amendment that will provide that all US Presidents must come from the Bush family.

The only bright side would be that we'll all be dead by the time the twins start serving their term as co-Presidents!

I have believed for years that Clear Channel is a very dangerous company - they got the thieves in D.C. in there pocket - just like many others - the children being born now may suffer greatly for what they have stole from the people -

But here is some hope -
I read that Kinky Friedman may run for governor of the Lone Star State in 2006. That's Texas :-)

His slogan

"Kinky for Governor - How Hard Could It Be?"

Now that would look good on a billboard with Smirk the Chimps picture after the question mark !!

Ottawa is really not that far away...we've been checking. Vancouver looks just lovely, but it's more expensive from what I can tell. I wonder how long until we can start petitioning Canada for political asylum?

You know, I've certainly had a lot of disagreements with the US government over the years, but this is the first time that I was really sorry I lived here.

_____________________________________________

In response to running away to Canada, check this article out:
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2004/11/05/notes110504.DTL&nl=fix

I'd really like getting into some sort of activist group, but I'm having trouble finding one around here. Even if it's something as simple as a discussion group to figure out what to do on a grass roots level to keep these dirty birds from screwing up the country....no, no...the WORLD any more than they have already. The above link is about just that. Now's not the time to bury yer head in the sand or run away and hide. Yeah, it's scary. But remember the following quote:
"In Germany, they first came for the communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Catholic. Then they came for me -- and by that time there was nobody left to speak up."
-Martin Niemöller

Hey! I'm not sounding like a paranoid whacko, am I? I'm just feeling frustrated because I feel like I ought to do something but I'm not too sure of where to start.

It's hard to get started if you don't have a direction to look... you may want to check out United for Peace and Justice and its listing of local organizations
with listings by State If the groups listed there don't feel right to you, their websites may have other links for you to investigate.

Good luck! (to all of us!)
