The Day America Fought Back

Slubbo whipped this up.

Moron Naomi Wolf has declared Andrew Meyer's brave resistance an "iconic turning point" in the history of Amerikka, "will be remembered as the moment at which America either fought back or yielded."

Myself, I thought was a whiny douchebag looking for some Daddy-Time from the cops that his actual father had never provided. But it turns out it's so much more than that.

I thought it would be a good idea to mark this great moment.

We have to understand what time it is. When the state starts to hurt people for asking questions, we can no longer operate on the leisurely time of a strong democracy -- the 'Oh gosh how awful!' kind of time. It is time to take to the streets. It is time to confront those committing crimes against the Constitution. The window has now dropped several precipitous inches and once it is closed there is no opening it without great and sorrowful upheaval.

We also need to understand from history that the temptation at a moment like this to grow more quiet -- to stay out of the line of fire -- is the wrong choice by far. History shows categorically that if citizens do not stand up now to confront and imprison the abusers, things do not get safer -- they get much more dangerous for ordinary people, activist or not.

I was scared when I wrote The End of America -- personally scared because the blueprint I was tracing in the summer of 2006 showed clearly that protesters and critics would start to be hurt within the year. When I told a dear friend that I was scared, he gently reminded me of the history I was reading. He asked, will things be scarier for you and the ones you love if you speak up now -- or if you are silent?

We don't just need to speak up now. We need to act. It is time to rebel in the name of the flag and the founders.

She was scared? Of what? Having to Jenny Craig it for the publicity tour?

What is it with these neurotic, narcissistic yentas like Naomi Wolf, Glenn Greenwald, and Andrew Sullivan having perpetual hissy-fits and frightening the children? When did we decide that public discourse could only be conducted at a 110 decibel screech?

Can you ladies please fucking butch up for like two seconds so that we can hear ourselves think?

Bonus: Can anyone explain to me how a liberal university acting to protect the dignity of a liberal Senator is somehow all the blame of the fascist Bush Administration?

This is when I'd exasperatedly use a blasphemy to convey the level of my disgust at the level of discourse we get from the left, but I'm trying not to do that anymore.

So I'll just say: For fuck's sake, you fucking morons, listen to the fucking words your stupid fucking mouths are moronically fucking drooling out.

The Anthem Of the New Resistance: You can't have a good revolution without some kickin' tunes, you know. kjm offers:

Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail once you provoke her, rattling of her tail never begins it, never, but once engaged... never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage

don't taze me, bro!

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

don't taze me, bro!

love it or live it, she with the deadly bite
quick is the blue tongue, forked as lighting strike
shining with brightness, always on surveillance
the eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance

don't taze me, bro!

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

don't taze me, bro!

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war

liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
once you provoke her, rattling on her tail

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

don't taze me, bro!
