Subject: Bachmann

A message to Bachman and her supporters

It’s with great interest I watch the rabid right wing hold a press conference {sic} where there is a call for revolution against the elected government of the United States.

This is not only appalling, but in my opinion treason, and the press is derelict to not call it such.

To her and her 4,000 bused in supporters I would like to take this opportunity to tell them, real Americans will not stand by and watch as you try to take over our elected government, so tread lightly.

If you want to change what you don't like do it at the polls, not through threats of violence as you may find violence met with violence and it seems there are more of us who are happy with our government then there are of you.

I fought in Vietnam for the right of free speech, however free speech comes with a duty not to subvert the elected process of the U.S., so how bout we cut this crap out now and get on with our obligation to take care of Americans instead of kicking our fellow citizens when they are down.

Thanks Buzz for letting me vent

Subject: Hypocrites of our time

For all the Joe Liebermanns, Dick Cheneys, Liz Cheneys...etc...I never thought i would get to the point of never watching anything on CNN...C-SPAN 1 or 2. but, it is too hard. When you finally realize that loathing can ruin your life...you get to the point where you want to just live with your thoughts a year ago...even though they were all in office then...and the world was still going down.

When I remember the guilt on the face of Henry Paulsen when he and Bush lied to us about having to bail out all THEIR friends...so, said friends could cash in on billions in the way of bonus' money!! Jeez..how can they look anyone look us in the eye and not feel like cheap dirt??? I have a relative who actually told me that Vietnam was much less important(even though we were an ally, and had been asked in to help stave off the North) that was Iraq!! This relative, or course, could not tell me why..no one ever has...in any case of question! We will never know...in our time...because the republicans of today....are so protective of their dumbed down leaders...they will tell you anything and expect you to believe it. You have to be so careful...as to not let it give you ulcers, bring you down to their level.....whatever comes to mind.

This last 8 years of Bush/Cheney/Rummy and Rice have made me a skeptic more than any one thing in my life. Until , this new administration can do anything to straighten it out...Its just as if I am sitting or standing still......going no where.

Incidentally...if it is any help in the helpless world... I too, love the new format...i always will. Anything Buzzflash does no matter how different...is done in an honest and sincere way....we have to have that...we have to have people who will not sell out.
