Good Idea. We'll Put the Death Squad Guy In Charge

Today is just another day in the alternate reality that has become the Bush II presidency. (Georgie, have they replaced your brain with rice porridge?) Seriously, every morning I am greeted by TV reporters trying to keep a straight face as they read off the latest line of bullshit from the Bush administration (and I haven't even said anything about social security yet). This morning's latest? King Georgie wants to put John Negroponte in charge of all of our intelligence agencies.

Mind you this is the same asshole that worked with the bad guys in Honduras and acquiesced to and covered up mass killings (I think he was even lying to Congress and the press about this stuff if memory serves). He even lobbied for them and got them more money (funding went from $4M a year to $77M+) and American weapons so they could kill lots more people. Especially little kids. So I ask- what the fuck is Georgie smoking now? Is Georgie awake? Does he have a fucking clue about how bad of an idea this is?

Google the motherfucker. Look at his picture. He looks like a fucking lizard with those heavy lids. I keep expecting him to stick out his tongue so he sense the heat of his prey. But that aside, this is a real bad dude and when he is given broad discretion, people die- even Americans. FYI- this guy oversaw the building of an American air base where 185 bodies were discovered in 2001. Some of those bodies were American. He's also the guy who set up the Iran-Contra arms deals. And he sent people to their deaths by turning them over to the Contras so they could be raped, tortured and thrown alive from helicopters to their deaths. So let's get this straight: he's a liar, he committed treason, he oversaw the training of deaths squads, and he allowed human rights abuses to go uncheck and lied to cover them up and this is who we want as our National Intelligence Director?

Fucking pinch me. This has got to be a nightmare.

What better credentials to get on Dr. Dubya's A-list? I'll bet he's rich, too.
