I hear Snoop Dog and Ice Cube will be the featured performers at the celebration party.  Both are bigtime republicans.

Let’s save the money for the celebration that will happen when this administration’s reign of terror is over…

“A million here, a million there; pretty soon we’re talking real money.” Did Tip O’Neil say that during Vietnam? 20 million, I’m sure, bought more flack jackets in the early 70’s than it does today; and 20 million would have conjured up one hell of a parade back then. I believe the Vietnam Memorial was erected with less than 10 million in donations from private citizens, and the Feds relented by allowing it to be built on land “they” “owned”. Today more American soldiers are being killed in Afghanistan and Iraq, not even thinking about the others being shot and mutilated, or even the “collaterally damaged” citizens whose minds are swimming with problems everyday Americans cannot even fathom, as we pump gasolina into cars and trucks we all just know could be better built, or run on other technology. “Lies, damn lies, and statistics”: Europe and Asia and India and the Southern Americas manufacture for longevity and continuing success. Here our industrial elite have manufactured “planned obsolescence” to maximize profits and keep the “free” market bound up in chains of failure and secondary market repetitive replacement. Fix it or Fuck it. I remember seeing that painted on the Washington Monument during a Memorial Day protest in Washington DC, back during Nixon’s regime in the White House. I was ashamed of him for saying that “no matter the public outcry we will not leave Vietnam”. Once again America is experiencing escalating frustration with a president. I could not bring myself to believe Richard Nixon was elected by the American population, and now it’s even more apparent that this president was not…and twice, to boot. Now the money rolls over for the victory parade in another war terrorizing those who won’t submit to Pax Americana. The drums will one day beat out the names of the fallen, and I’ll bet there never is that parade, anywhere in the USA.

Just goes to show you once again, and again, that the GOP has no principles, values, or sense of shame. To call the iraq war is the height of hypocracy. This party and its leaders cannot be trusted to level with the american public.

I’ll bring the chips and dip; they will not be able to afford those extras on a paltry $20m budget. What a shame. 

...we’ll need a DJ. Anyone know Spinnin’ Hank? He’s great! Provides an eclectic mix of Christian Rock, 1940’s Country, John Philip Souza, and Wayne Newton. Perfect!

We’ll need decorations. Do you think that ole “Mission Accomplished” banner is still around. If we can’t find it I can always get Granny to quilt us one. Red, White, and Blue of course.

Then there’s the guest list for the “insider” party. I was thinking of inviting soldiers in their dress uniforms for that authentic and patritotic look, but thought that some of the empty shirt sleeves and pant legs might be a bit of a downer. You know? After all, it’s a celebration.

Do you think fireworks are over the top? I’m all for it because, after all, it’s a VICTORY celebration, right? What better way to end a war!

I don’t think we should serve alcohol. I would rather not have all those servicemen just back from Iraq makiing a spectacle of themselves. But champagne for the insider party is a MUST. 

I can’t wait.

“appropriate ceremonies and activities”

These would be impeachment proceedings and war crimes charges brought against the Bush administration.

Let the festivities begin.
