How Republican Fuckjobs Make Their Point
If the people who draw these cartoons only felt half as much outrage about the Whitehouse leaking the identity of a CIA agent, wartime prisoner abuse, the lies and misrepresentations that Bush made to get us into this war in the first place, the plundering of our federal treasury, Dick Cheney's secret energy council, the rape of the American people at the gas-pumps, and discrimination being written into the Constitution - as they do at the thought that a free press is actually allowed to exist...! Boy howdy. These A-holes could have a field day if they gave a crap about anything other than painting those who oppose the "war on terror" and Bush's shennanigans as "traitors" and trying to take away the fundamental right to free speech in this country. The cartoons I've posted below win for most pathetic attempts to blame the "liberal press" for "leaks of top secret plans." If they were such a fucking secret, how did the press find out about them? And if the press found out, why should the American people be denied the right to information about the deeds and actions of our government - especially THIS government, that is, one that thinks laws and treaties do not apply to them? Yeah, MORE SECRECY! That's just what this shitwash of a presidential administration needs. Meanwhile, the greatest gift that has ever been given "the terrorists" was us going in to Iraq while letting Osama Bin Ladin run free, thank you very much.
That last one really tickles me. Are liberals actually being accused of having the blood of soldiers on their hands? How the fuck does that work when we are the ones who didn't want to send them to Iraq in the first place? That makes a lot of sense. On "Opposite Day."

It is the main tool used by magicians and illusionists alike - misdirection. When there aren't any major events happening either they conjure up some bullshit to feed the media, who like clueless children lap it up and pant for me, they simply turn on the Rove propaganda machine. When they are attacked right where it hurts (in the case of their many illegal and unchecked snooping technques) they pull out the ol "anti-american, un-patriotic, pro-terrorist" rant and rave. It doesn't even surprise me anymore. It is like a worn out broken record stuck in a damn loop and they simply turn the volume away from 0 whenever they feel they need to.
