War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Irony can sometimes be just the black residue of a lie. Since Sept. 11, 2001, Decider George has spent US peoples’ money like there was literally no tomorrow. And most of this cash flowed to the Middle East in pursuit of the perfect war. Now the out-stretched hand comes beckoning. This would be absolutely hilarious…
Here it is Friday before the famous Memorial Day weekend — once the party-igniting start to a summer of beer and chicks in halter tops — but now it’s on to $4 a gallon gas and a world shattered by shit-heads in power. One of the most pointed writers/performers is Garrison Keillor, of “A Prairie…
As chin-strap, ramrod-retro, surge-happy US Army Gen. David Petraeus slips through his Senate confirmation hearings this morning, Iraq is slipping further into the surreal. Last month, Decider George picked Petraeus out of a crowd, a total stranger, (ironic sarcasm, we have you know!) and then nominated him to replace Navy Adm. William J. Fallon as…
Christians in the land of Islam. Not only did the holier-than-thou armies of the West invade Iraq, but the religion’s hypocrisy was sucked along with it. Trapped in an inferno, US GIs perform like the false, twisted logic that put them there. An American sniper has been sent home from Iraq for using a copy…
Decider George shames all US peoples. He couldn’t grasp his ass with both hands. And his hypocrisy makes one suffer enough to shit a brick: SHARM EL SHEIK, Egypt — President Bush said Saturday that “it breaks my heart” that the Palestinian people have been unable to establish an independent homeland and he vowed anew…
Is Decider George’s government heartless and cruel at every level? Apparently, the whole shebang is not worth a shit: WASHINGTON (AP) — An internal e-mail message written by a Veteran’s Affairs Department employee suggested that the agency avoid giving a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder for veterans and instead consider a diagnosis that might result…
Since early Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001, the US has reportedly been at war. According to Decider George and his bunch of continually-wrong minons, this war is being waged against those who practice terror. Aside from the fact this actual war has been ongoing for decades, maybe since Iran in 1953, or even maybe back to…
Can anyone really take Decider George seriously? He seems to have absolutlely no shame. Does one think Jenna Bush considers/thinks/reflects/ponders or even wonders about her daddy being a blundering, atrocious villian? Of course not! Jenna on Sunday married that baby-necked, dumb-ass-looking Hank Hager in a pastoral, Hollywood-old-West wedding while the world burned. After a sweet, booze-drenched…
In the long run, probably the biggest news story of the year so far is the unspoken one, a seemingly open secret. The New York Times expose a couple of weeks ago on the Pentagon’s public propaganda machine, enlisting retired military types to wax eloquent on TV news about the ongoing disasters in Iraq and…
As a writer, we here at Compatible Creatures have numerous technical difficulties when operating equipment, whether large or small — from a rude, ungainly Smith-Corona typewriter 40 years ago to a confused, mysterious, virus-infected 2007 Dell laptop — and even with a Skil saw during manual-labor days. In a literary instance, we should have remained…
