Happy Inauguration Day !
The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power….Power is not a means; it is an end….not power over things, but over men….In our world there will be no emotions except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement….There will be no loyalty, except loyalty toward the Party.
There will be no love, except the love of Big Brother….Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless. If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human faceâ??forever.
George Orwell

You took the words right out of my mouth. I just watched that again the other day. How ironic and utterly frightening.
Did you know that Virginia has passed a new law banning unmarried couples from having sex? All because this woman pressed charges against her lover of two years who gave her herpes.
But sorry, back to the issue at hand…..

Why do you think they call it VIRGINia, anyway?
Virginia is NOT for lovers!
Strange, I could have sworn that I just heard that like yesterday morning on NPR, spoken by a Soothing BBC commentator voice…

There was a great article in the Post today about how no one really knows where anyone without a ticket can watch the parade. FBI, Secret Service, DHS all have no clue.
No one gets it. It's a private party. All public spaces are reserved for those who gave six figure donations to re-elect W. There is one armed, law-enforcement officer for every five spectators expected - and the hidden cameras are all up and running!
Laura Bush said this morning in an interview on NBC that all funds for this coronation were "private" funds. So that says it all: The Bush family now considers all Federal funds their "private" funds, including DC's contributions of $12M for which they will NOT be reimbursed, as well as the $60M for giving all non-military government personnel the day off. BTW: This isn't a national holiday. Most private firms and companies are trying to do business today. Does anyone know what the final figures are - when you factor in all paid (and often at overtime rates) police/military/secret service?
I'm sure it would have covered a lot of body armor for the very vulnerable troops in Iraq…who don't even have adequate commissary services to provide sunscreen/sunglasses/socks and personal care items. But - Hey - partay on, DOOOODSS!

ugh… the subway is teeming today with Republicans, including not a few in cowboy hats.
Cowboy hat wearers = morons.

I can't wait to walk down there on my lunch break and watch all those idiot anti Bush protesters get their ass's kicked by the police like my friend just told me she saw on tv. Maybe if I'm lucky I'll be able to give one a good shot in their big fat mouth…..LOL
