Ferguson Can BIte Me

The Great Calamity of 2007 could have been avoided if the Generals had acted sooner. Facing impeachment and criminal charges, the Bush Administration played the one card it played best. It started a war and declared that it would be folly to remove the administration in war time. As the country’s land forces were tied up in Iraq and Afghanistan, Bush turned to aerial bombardment of Iran. In the absence of any targets, this bombardment was indiscriminate. Every ally in the Muslim world was alienated, and nuclear armed Pakistan joined Iran against the US. Yadda, Yadda, Yadda. The nuclear exchange was devastating.

It was when Bush declared martial law that the Generals acted and seized the reigns of government. In the military tribunals of Bush, Cheney and the rest of the Neo-Con Death Cult, the full story of the appalling ineptitude and unequalled drive for power of the administration was laid before the American people. Only the staunchest opponents of the death penalty spoke out when they mounted the scaffold on July 4, 2008. It was all the military government in DC could do to keep the crowd from killing them before the hangman could. The leaders of the GOP in Congress are still in protective custody.
