Time for Civil Disobedience
by QuestionGirl

Yep, my brother is right. It’s time for civil disobedience. His comment on a post:’

This Administration is no different than any other organized criminal enterprise, whether it be the Mafia or your typical street gang, in that the key to stopping snitchs or defectors is having them commit, or at the least be a co-conspirator or accessory to a crime to ensure they stay within the fold. For reasons only they themselves know, some members of Congress made some very stupid decisions making them complicit in the crimes of the Bush/Cheney Administration that sealed their fate in the fold, some of which are now being exposed. Pelosi and the other members of Congress who were informed of the torture years ago and did nothing about it then, when they could and legally should have, lends alot of credibility to my reasoning, doesn-t it? How could they possibly prosecute this now without incriminating themselves? They can-t. It’s like being in the mafia or a street gang, once you-re in, you-re in for good, there is no way out without incriminating yourself. Their newly exposed complicity in these crimes (torture was and still is a crime) is inexcusable, unethical, immoral and in direct contradiction to their sworn oath to the Constitution and Bill of Rights and should also be considered a criminal impeachable offense. There is no fucking excuse for this shit. NONE. Following their rationale would be like a cop looking the other way and ignoring a criminal in the act of a crime and then when the criminal comes back later and tells you he’s going to destroy evidence of his crime you don-t do anything but tell him not to destroy it. Would that be acceptable? Hell no, the cop should be fired for malfeasance and dereliction of duty and possibly charged with obstruction of justice, and being an accessory before and after the crime. No wonder Pelosi threw impeachment off the table as if it were plague ridden, considering these latest revelations she would possibly be impeaching herself. Me thinks it might be time for some good old fashioned civil disobedience. They want to ignore the rule of law and live in a lawless society, why don-t we join them?

Some of today’s headlines:

Lawmakers vote to hold Bolten and Rove in contempt (any bets it won’t pass in the senate?)

More beating the drum about Iran

House votes to outlaw waterboarding (It’s already fucking criminal, what don’t you dipshits get?)

UN Rights envoy suspects torture at Guantanemo

Senate Republicans block energy bill. (it was blocked because the Republicans want the want the tax increases to oil companies removed. It’s going to be removed and passed tomorrow)

I could go on and on…..but you get my drift.
