While I continue getting over surgery and tryna' get back into a drawing groove, n'shit... let's flash back to another war that Liberals of both parties lied, blustered and bullied their asses off to drag us into... originally did this for an immediate post-election protest response in DC; it got blasted all over, but I never actually did a blog post, except for this sloppy-ass blurb on my old static html site... so, here it is. Let's climb aboard the TARDIS, kiddies, and set the dial for the turn of the century:

After one too many mornings of watching Kerry and Bush piss-fighting over Kerry's war record, I was begging, desperately: Somebody, Anybody – STOP THE TORTURE of American Voters!
So, I wake up one early morning recently; as usual, my wife's already awake and has NBC's "Today" jabbering on the TV. In the thinning fog of my fading REM state I hear candidate John "Lurch" Kerry being interviewed, and he's telling us how he plans to continue to uphold the corporate/military agenda, after which a Bush campaign ad denounces Lurch for being "too leftist". I think: jeezus, it's too damn' early for this shit. Lurch says he'll keep doing what the Chimp started, and the Chimp accuses Lurch of being too leftist, it's only 7:15am, and my brain is already hurting.
Somebody, stop this torture. Somebody make it stop. Somebody, make...it...sto-oopppppp!
