Da Prez; Da Hypocrite

Hypocrisy is the expression of agreement that is not supported by real conviction. And it is a problem for government officials the world over, our President is a hypocrite.

For the last 5 years Bush has led the crack down on terrorists the world over, he has squired away accused terrorists without trial or legal council and invaded two countries to achieve his goal. And yet somehow when it comes to Cuban terrorists he is mute.

In a little reported story an anti-Castro insurgent named Luis Posada Carriles has requested asylum in the United States. Mr. Posada Carriles has been implicated in a bombing of a Cuban Aircraft, the assassination of a Chilean dissident named Orlando Letelier right on Embassy Row in Washington and Castro himself. In other words, Mr. Posada Carriles is a terrorist. And yet the U.S. government has - so far - refused to extradite him and he remains free in the United States somewhere (most likely in the home of some wealthy Castro hater in South Florida). Carriles was an operative in the ill-fated Operation Condor program that terrorized left-wing dissidents during the late 1970’s with tacit support of the CIA, the same CIA, we note, that was being run by none other than George H.W. Bush. This last point may explain the current President’s reluctance to let this cat out of the bag.

We applaud the San Francisco Chroncile and the New York Times for actually raising this story in op-ed pieces because most the United States press has conveniently ignored the story.

Happy Cinco De Mayo

If you consider yourself an American, Today is that special day to celebrate our disfunctional relationship with Mexico.

Cinco De Mayo is the celebration of Mexico's defeat of French Troops and the ouster of Napoleon's puppet Maximillian in 1862. Lead by the brave General Zartagosa and Portofino Diaz, outnumbered, Mexico defeated the technologically advanced French. The Mexicans were also supplied by arms delivered to the boarder by U.S. General Sheridian which arrived at the front just in time. So really Cinco De Mayo ought to be a time to celebrate US-Mexican cooperation; instead, the Mexicans here and abbroud continue to foster resentment.

Just check this out:

"Those signs offended people across the country for two sensitive reasons. There's documentation that some large corporations are contributing to our illegal immigration problem and secondly, a large number of illegal aliens and their political activists don't respect or acknowledge America's territorial jurisdiction over the area and have repeatedly said, 'It's our land and we are taking it back.''

Think about that as you sip your Margaritas, you suckers! That guy cleaning up you wasted Guac is actually a freedom fighter seeking the liberation of Topanga, who knew?

Thanks AS.
