Mr. President

Come on now Mr. President Barack Obama, or should I say Barack BUSH because you pander through the big oil companies just the same as the Bushs did... to get America involved in a war, to put American lives in jeopardy and spend many billions of dollars on a new un-winnable conflict between all citizens in the same country (a Civil War). Why I ask? And the answer comes: Exxon, Mobil, BP, Blackwater, Grumman, and the list goes on. You started out by enforcing a no fly zone to protect the Libyan citizens from their leader Colonel Gaddafi, an admirable action if not for infringing on a sovereign country's right to control their own airspace, but still admirable if the reason is to save lives. Then we started to bomb the tanks and troops on the ground, again to save the civilians from their madman leader Gaddafi. In our next act of war we started bombing cities in advance of the rebels' invasion. What about the civilians of those cities? Then our president explained that we are not choosing sides but Colonel Gaddafi said his people are rats. Colonel Gaddafi said that we would go door to door to sew revenge on the dissidents. Gaddafi said this, Gaddafi said that. Barack sounds like George W. Bush when we killed so many civilians and sacrificed so many American lives all for the purpose of hanging Saddam Hussein and gaining control of the Iraqi oil. The same big companies mentioned above made obscene profits from the Iraqi war. He also sounded a lot like daddy Bush when he stated his reasons for the invasion of Panama and Grenada, not to mention their first crack at Saddam and his oil. So I want to now announce that I have solved the biggest mystery of this presidency... Barack Obama is not a Muslim by birth rite. Barack Obama is not an African-American by birth rite. Barack Obama is a Bush by rite of corporate merger, with all their secret obligations and alliances to big business.

President Barack Obama...

Today's post is about our first black president, Barack Obama. This is what we were told, and this is what we bought into, myself included. Even though he is of mixed race, we all saw a black man and what that encompassed: intelligence, integrity and compassion. I believed in this man so much that I voted for him. That's right. Even though I was locked up in MDC Brooklyn, I voted. They told me that my vote didn't matter because New York was Democratic, so Obama would carry New York, and my vote would be a waste. But I believe in change, and I needed to become a part of that change. I needed to vote. My lawyer and my family sprang into action. They obtained an absentee ballot and I voted for the next president, the first black president and the champion of the people, Barack Obama. It felt good when he won. No, it felt great! What a change, socially and politically! After eight years of torture, invading countries to give no bid contracts to big oil companies, to Haliburton looting and shooting civilians, after big banks had their way with our money, it felt damned good to have change.

A legal education at the finest schools, a civil rights activist, and he's in tip top shape. A black man, above all, would be sensitive to the individual's civil rights. If he couldn't fix all the wrongs, he would at least start. We were so wrong! We were so deceived! The wars continue. The torture continues, and all of the rest continues. He's failing miserably. He sings to us progressives while he panders to the conservatives. He tries to nullify us by half steps. He sends people to other countries to be tortured. He ends a war but leaves our brave soldiers there as targets for the radicals. He puts a puppet government in Afghanistan, pays them millions in taxpayers dollars, supports them with our brave military, and has the nerve to call it a democracy. He creates new banking rules with no teeth. He was supposed to make the racist crack law equal to that of the cocaine laws. He did not. His halfstep solution is to give the crack-dealer 18 years for every year that the cocaine dealer gets. That's like telling Rosa Parks to sit in the middle of the bus. It's all so wrong! He extended the Patriot Act which tramples our protections. He utterly ignores the gay community. He has changed nothing. Mr President, you are a fraud. Zip off your black skin and show us the conservative white man that you really are, or live up to your promises of change. We don't need or want more of the same.

just more thoughts...

Here are some thoughts that are covered under my right to free speech. I am well aware that my written thoughts are being examined by the BOP, the FBI, and the US Attorney's Office, but they are legal and I will share them with all:

As much as I don't want to, I have to direct this blog to Sleazy Curtis Sliwa. So here goes... I have learned from a confidential source, who has been very accurate in the past, and has been verified by other confidential sources that they are choosing Doogie Howser to play Sliwa's role in the upcoming Gotti movie (Bravo! Great casting!)

The second thing is about how I am able to exercise my right to free speech. I am housed in a high-security detention center called MDC Brooklyn. I can assure you that nothing passes back and forth in the visiting room, not even napkins. The professional correction officers do an outstanding job of keeping the detention center free of contraband. I hand-write my blog and then send it by snail mail or email to be entered onto the computer. It is thoroughly reviewed by prison officials and prosecutors for any hint of illegality. Naturally, there is none.

The next thing is that I have never had a hit list. So you, Sleazy, are not on my hit list. You are on my shit list.

Another thing, no matter how many times you spout on the air waves that Mike Yannotti shot you, it's just not true. He is innocent. That's why the prosecution could not convict him of your shooting at trial.

The last issue that I will just touch on (because it is so serious that it deserves its own, and will get its own post in the very near future) is, the upcoming death penalty case of Vinny Basciano. It is a real blemish to the justice system of America. First of all, Vinny is already serving a life sentence for a prior conviction. He will never get out of prison, nor will he be in a position of being a danger to anyone. For the government to spend many more millions to get the same result of Vinny Basciano dying in prison is ludicrous. Why go through the expense and strain on the court system for jurors who must vote to put a man to death? Not because he is the worst of the worst (as is the criteria in death penalty cases) but because he is a white man. The Eastern District has been shamefully approving too many minorities for the death penalty and not enough white men. That's right, the two men who were going to save America from the bloodthirsty right-wing conservatives are going to kill Vinny Basciano because it is politically correct. How about we stop killing our citizens based on what they look like. Barack Obama and Eric Holder, you should be ashamed of yourselves. When a government starts to kill its citizens, it's dangerous. When a government starts to kill its citizens to come up with a politically correct statistic, it's tyranny. The tortures continue, the wars continue. And you continue to selectively kill your own citizens. You don't bring justice, you don't bring truth. You bring tears to the eyes of the Statue of Liberty.
