Top Hat Back essay by Rhammy Nipper

YOU WANT TO GET MAD? We had eight years of Bush and Cheney, but now you get mad! You didn’t get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.
 1) The Supreme Court, the third leg of our Constitutionally mandated balance of power, was asked to decide a constitutional matter.  I didn’t read the transcripts, did you?  I wasn’t there in the court room, were you?  I trusted the court to do their job…interpret the constitution, and make a ruling.  They did just that.  I don’t get my history from movies like “Recount” or Oliver Stone trash like JFK…..Do you?

You didn’t get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to dictate energy policy.
 2) Yes I did

You didn’t get mad when a covert CIA operative got ousted.

 3) This was a media driven story with absolutely no significance to our national security.

You didn’t get mad when the Patriot Act got passed...
4) Not sure what I’m supposed to be mad about. Please explain.

You didn’t get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.
5) Which time?????  Philippine Islands? Cuba?  Viet Nam? Korea?

You didn’t get mad when we spent over 600 billion(and counting) on said illegal war.
6) Please precisely define why the invasion of Iraq was illegal
 
You didn’t get mad when over 10 billion dollars just disappeared in Iraq.
6a) Yes I did.  However, I’m madder about the TRILLIONS of dollars disappearing this year into Democrat pet projects, transparently disguised as job stimulus programs.  By the way, still waiting for the unemployment rate to drop.

You didn’t get mad when you found out we were torturing people.
7) Water boarding is not torture.  Binding prisoners hands and feet and throwing them off of buildings is torture.  Electro shock is torture. Summary executions is torture.
