God Bless Our Courageous President.........
george, you're a son of a bitch You're a bastard. You're a jerk. You're a traitor. and dictator.also a retard and an embarrassment. and a drunken, drug addled punk. You're a sissy, mamma's boy, and you're dumber than your daddy. You're a wimp like him too. your mom must be a real bitch to have raised up a bunch of leeches and parasites like she did.she's more of a man than you or your dad together, and that's not a compliment. You're a liar of the worst kind, and you're a two face. you are not a godly man at all, but a hypocrite of rare distinction. you will go down in history as a failed moron like your dad, only worse. you've never read a real book in your life. you were an F student who got a C from your daddy's contributions to yale. You're a draft dodger and a deserter. You're a blowhard prick, and you can't understand reporter's questions. you've never had a real job, and wouldn't make it past one month if you did have one. you'd be fired as an incompetent. you've had everything handed to you, and you don't even appreciate what you've got. You're a snob, and an inbred effete fop. plus you have a stupid face. you look like an ape, and when you talk, you talk like an ape. you don't have any real ideas in your head, and you have no knowledge of the world other than what your told by your babysitters that your dad hired to surround you. you'd lose a debate with a 12 year old.you're vile and insipid. mundane and dimwitted. You're the dullest knife in the bush drawer. when god was handing out brains you thought he said trains and stood there waiting. you are against a woman's right to choose, but you had one of your staffers pay for your girlfriends abortion. you snorted up half of peru and you smuggled drugs by the ton. you drank a river of jack daniels and you lied about being sober. you stole the presidency with your father's help and you skated through your whole life on your last name. you knew 9-11 was coming and you went to hide on the pig farm to be prepared for it, and didn't warn the victims. you let them die by the thousands and then stood there at ground zero playing the hero. you promised you'd get the perps dead or alive and then you utterly abandoned the hunt. you are a whore of the sleaziest kind, and you worship manna, not jesus. you defile the name of christ, and you pretend to be a religious man. you know jesus wouldnt' bomb babies, but you tell the easily fooled born agains that lie.you talk bad about hitler, but it was hitler and your grandpa prescott that made your family billionaires. you took money from the bin ladens to help your oil company and then you couldn't find oil in texas. you stole money from retirees and laughed all the way to the bank. you hugged the widows of soldiers and 9-11 victim's families knowing that you could have saved them. you are a heartless, cold, reptilian cocksucker.you have no soul, yet you attend church and carry a bible around.you stink, you suck, and you make us all sick. you will be remembered as the worst president the nation ever suffered through, and your name will be synonymous with failure and greed and ineptitude. you have invited the world's ire, and hatred.you have disgraced all the founding fathers and every citizen who ever gave their life for democracy and liberty. You're a confederate asshole and a racist. you can barely hide your fear and loathing of black people. you pissed on the bill of rights and you shit on the constitution. your name will be scraped off monuments and your statues will be toppled and broken up into gravel. you've brought down hellfire on innocent people without so much as an apology. you now prepare to bring suffering and agony to millions all for your trillionaire, warpig pals.there is oil in your veins instead of blood. i hope your happy george. your a real son of a bitch. fuck you. fuck your dad, and fuck your mom. fuck your nazi grandpa and your effeminate giddy father the c.i.a. monster. fuck your brother jeb, and fuck your ugly wife. fuck your whole family.you have fucked america and now america is saying fuck you george. kiss my bitter patriotic ass you son of a bitch.

10. That is one fantastic rant!
This is the kind of anger and resentment that all people should feel regarding the atrocities that Bush* and company have foist on the world.

31. damn! if I had seen this rant sooner...
I could have put it on a poster for tomorrow....

it is truly classic! (i couldn't stop to read it while I was at work today. )

definitive. gospel.

if I ever get my political cabaret show together, I'm going to ask to use this (edited, a bit, for length) as a monologue.

a contemporary political revue MUST include the art of the RANT and Mo was a true poet of the pissed off

8. I heard from MoPaul right after he left....
He said he left because many of his comments on the "religious" posts were getting "locked". He didn't feel there was enough freedom of expression, was my impression. I think he probably still reads but doesn't post. Many of us miss his cartoons and his irreverence.

9. I learned recently that the MoPaul moniker,
was the 2nd incarnation of another vociferous poster. It wouldn't surprise me if he dwells among us now with yet a third. I certainly hope so, talent and passion are commodities.

I've heard that with a dial-up connection you can simply wipe your cookies and become re-born, all pink cheeked and baby fresh. No black marks, no ignore lists, no pre-conceived notions and you get greeted as a newbie all over again, hmmmm.

11. You'd know if he did
the first moniker was Frank N. Stein.

But you would be able to identify the brutally outrageous honesty through the moniker.

He's right - it is too restrictive, but on the otherhand - is it Skinner's board and he obviously can decide what best serves his intentions for the project.

He'll probably come back - the mods tend to go lockhappy at times, maybe mo will forgive them.

16. I know about Frank.
His classic "When will someone say it?" post re: the obsurdity of "not one, but two" 110 story buildings falling within their own footprints is why I registered and started posting at DU. I just had to jump in.

I missed Frank, thinking that he had tired of casting pearls before swine only to learn that he had arisen again as MoPaul, now I miss MoPaul. More pearls please.

No need to tell me about lockhappy.

25. He was MoPaul before FrankStein
I foound his real site during the "recount days".. He's been cartooning for a long time.. I think he may have been reluctant to "out" himself when he first came here. I'd like to think I had a hand in getting him to dump Frank and be himself.. He did message me when he made the change, to let me know.... I was saddened to find that the "climate" here had driven him away.. We still are in contact, and I am sure he still reads here from time to time..

It is extrememly sad to know that the old "no-nos" are still with us....Religion & Politics.. The real oddity is that people who routinely discuss those two issues (and now they are really ONE issue)have known forever, that they must have skins as tough as leather to even GO there, but still some get hurt feelngs.. Surely, people who are deeply religious could get enough comfort from their faith, to indulge those of us who are not religious, but evangelism and intolerance run strong, just below the surface of some people's faith, and people who do not toe the line, are singled out for scorn..

Maybe Mo will drop back in after the elecion fiasco of 2004..:shrug:

37. Thanks for the info.
I feel that I've at last arrrived at DU, but more importantly at the gist of a movement. I've been arrested many times in posts that don't suit the purpose here. Perhaps it's time to expand my horizons.

I won't abandon DU, but perhaps my rhetoric might be more welcomed elsewhere. Any suggestions other than Bartcop?

21. Best Rant. Ever.
I read the posts from the night he was banned. He was pushing for it - was really fed up with religion and posted multiple relgious flamebait in a matter of no time. Sometimes you jsut reach a breaking point and have had enough. I do hope he comes back, somehow, someway - I loved his honesty and if that rant isn't great, then I don't know what the hell is.

Who appreciate the way he has put himself on the line, speaking out forcefully, truthfully, creatively in ways we remember long, long afterwards.

Unreplaceable.
