Dear Mr. Abramoff,

Guilty twice in one week? Methinks you are selling out those who had helped you earlier. One thing that the GOP doesn't like are those who save their own skin.

With that said, THANK YOU! I just have to wonder how far up the corruption goes though. Will it have anything to do with BushCo, Cheney, Rove? Are they running scared yet? Or is it limited to boring old Congress?

Perhaps you can be cellmates with Rove when he falls down and goes boom... The possibilities are endless. You just may very well go down in history as the man who brought the second Bush administration (well, here's hoping anyway.)

A Letter to My Senators; Boxer and Feinstein (Democrat, CA) THANK YOU.

I called both of my Senators today (Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein). I thanked them for trying to quash the Medicaid,Pell Grants for Students, and Medicare cuts. Though I did not get to speak with them personally (nor was I expecting to) I felt compelled to thank them. I think they hear too much about what they have done wrong versus a real thank you (other than on election day) for the job they are doing. I am proud to have them as my Senators.

From WashingtonPost.com:

President Bush praised the vote as "a victory for taxpayers, fiscal restraint and responsible budgeting," and he said it would help achieve his goal of cutting the federal deficit in half by 2009. In a statement, he said the bill marked "the first time in nearly a decade that Congress has reduced entitlement spending."



And if President Bush knew ANYTHING about fiscal responsibility, he would go ahead and tax the uber-wealthy and corporations. He wouldn't allow jobs to go overseas. He would use a myriad of tactics to decrease the tax burden on the low and middle class (because after all, it is THEIR money that stays here in the United States, unlike the UBER Wealthy and Corporations in the Grand Caymans). The middle class actually has pride in American made products. They actually use their very hard earned money, and if the economy needs to be jumped started, give them more money to spend here in the United States by giving them the god-damned tax cuts!!! Not faceless, money hoarding, bottom line wielding fascist terrorists we call Corporate America!

We need to change the face of the political map with the mid-term elections next year and the Presidential election in 2008. It is not too early to be concerned for your future. (Oh hell, for MY future.)

WoooHoooo

Score one for the good guys!
Arctic Drilling Stalled.... For Now


Step Closer Quashing the Patriot Act?


They're actually spying on Americans
They just will not come out and say it! If they wanted, they could get ANY Judge to sign a tap warrant for a conversation to an Al-Qaeda member. A Judge would be crazy to deny something like that. So why all the secrecy? They're spying on you and me. Probably Joseph Cannon too.

Open Letter to Vice President Cheney

Vice President Cheney~

Thank you for making it harder for those who cannot afford college. The message is perfectly clear: Education is for the elite. Better lives for the elite. Ruin the Arctic Wildlife Reserve (because animals can fight for themselves, right?).

I have never understood the Republican stance: Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. That has to be the stupidest mentality. Of course there will be those who abuse the system of give and take, but I dare say that the abuse lies far more dangerous when giving preference to corporations over people. To give tax cuts to the already wealthy. Denying education to those who actually seek and want it (unlike your President who probably begrudgingly went to Yale because it was a familial obligation).

To coin a phrase that you use often, FUCK YOU!

Gov. Schwarzenegger

Gov. Schwarzenegger,

Once again I must point my poison keyboard towards Governor Schwarzenegger. By not commuting the sentence of Stanley Tookie Williams, his blood is on your hands. Granted he has blood on his, but as long as the justice system is broken, we have no business whatsoever condemning anyone to pay the ultimate price for those horrible crimes.

Yes, what he did was horrible. But to call his conversion as a sort of lip service is way out of line. Of all people, you should realize the value of a second chance. I mean if the people of California had remembered the little grabby, grabby and nookie you admitted to, then you would have never won the election.

His outreach to the African-American community was astounding. He was a living testimonial to the ravages of Gang warfare. And you quieted that voice. The next election is looking more and more difficult, huh?

Open Letter to Bill O'Reilly

Dear Mr. O'Reilly,

First of all I would like to extend a very Happy Holidays to you and your kin. Yes, I said the dreaded Happy Holidays. And I would say them to your face if I could. I would like to first point out something that you may already know (just not actually willing to admit). NOT EVERYONE IN THE WORLD IS CHRISTIAN! Nor should they all be.

I don't see a war on Christmas. (I see a war in Iraq, Afghanistan, on the poor, those looking for an education, but not on Christmas. Plus I do believe we are about to go to war on Iran and Syria. Stick to REAL wars.) If you truly believe in Christmas, then you would demolish the Christmas Store that is present on your web site. As a true follower of Christmas, you would not be peddling a bevy of retail goods, you would peddle good will. You would not be a fear monger, but instead, a devotee of peace. You would not pay Christianity lip service, but instead be secure in the knowledge that good and sincere Christians do not proselytize at the top of their lungs, but carry the meaning of Christmas in their heart and with their families.

But this is a very difficult concept for you, I can understand that. But to wish someone who is Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist (or any the other religions that have been around far longer than Christianity) a Merry Christmas is to slap their religion in their face. Think back to when Christians were the oppressed, not the oppressors.

Blessed Be,

Happy Holidays,

Merry Christmas,

Happy Hanukkah,

Blessed Kwanzaa,

And to all, a Good Night,

Ms. Vandal

Coincidence

This came from a friend of mine...


1) New York City has 11 letters

2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.

3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin
Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.

4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:

1) New York is the 11th state.

2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number
11.

3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11

4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers.
6+5 = 11

5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11

6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number
911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.

Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:

1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was
254. 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4
= 11.

3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.

4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers
incident.

Now this is where things get totally eerie:

The most recognised symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is
the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Quran, the Islamic
holy book:

"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.
The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo,
while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for
the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was
peace."

That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran.

Still uncovinced about all of this..?! Try this and see how you feel
afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:

Open Microsoft Word and do the following:

1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first
plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.

2. Highlight the Q33 NY.

3. Change the font size to 48.

4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS

What do you think now?!!


REPOST THIS OR SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN TO U IN 11 MINUTES!!! (My note: Not too sure about this part. Besides with finals starting on Monday, I really cannot afford ANY bad tings happening to me.)

I have always noticed patters in seemingly unpatterned events, and I have always thought that there are some strange happenings in the world under the guise of coincidence. But this is kind of spooky. Not to mention that someone actually took the time to put all of this together... There are times when one can find patters when one is looking. Such as adding 9 + 2 = 11 when adding flight 11's number of passengers (which was 92, not 9 + 2), but I think you get my drift here....

Just something to think about.

Holiday Wishes

My holiday wishes to you, my three viewers (if that):

May you go forth in peace and realize that love is better than hate.

If you have questions about this, think on this: Where would you rather your money went? To those who need lunch money, or to Iraq and rebuilding a place where had more reasons for NOT being there than BEING there? Would you rather give a blanket to a homeless person, or carpet bomb Fallujah? Would you rather live the word God, or just offer lip-service to your religion?

The answers are not hard, they are not difficult. Even the President should realize the answers. Too bad he is busy offering religious lip-service than actually doing something that helps average Americans, not just his million-billion-aire friends. There are those who need help here. Help them first, then move to help those overseas.

If Necons are so enlightened, then please explain to me why this need for a double standard: Americans can pull themselves up the bootstraps, but the Iraqi need our assistance? I submit that we work on problems here, then go forth and spread our bounty, wealth, and knowledge.

I do not hate necons, I just do not understand them.

Be well.

Ms. Vandal.

Introductions. Better late than never.

Okay, maybe I should introduce myself since I am now leaving comments on others’ blogs. My name is unimportant. I am Joseph Cannon’s “Lady-friend”. I am very new to blogging myself so please be kind.

I am not too sure how often I will be able to blog, Joseph is the true political animal in the household. But I will add my 2 cents worth in every once in awhile.

I think I have decided upon a format for my blog, I wanted to do something that wasn’t already being done a billion times, and then some. But I love writing letters, and I think that is the approach that my blog will take.

Thank you for your time,

Ms. Vandal

Open Letter to Gov. Arnie

Gov. Arnold~

Number one, I really do not wish to type in your ENTIRE name, so please forgive this measure of familiarity.

Number two, I hope that you learned that Special Elections are not so special. You wasted many tax dollars that could have been used for far more IMPORTANT causes. Bravo!

I also hope that you learned that popularity is not the key to getting things done. You have to actually learn to work with people. I have always hated the people that thought that either rules did not apply to them, or that they thought they could just change rules to make them apply to them. (Especially those on the road. Yes people, traffic laws apply to you too!)

You might want to forget about an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would allow you to run for president. I think that we have had enough actors in the West Wing (and I am not referring to the television show).


Not so adoringly yours,

Political Vandal
