11 years ago today, Timothy McVeigh
made grover norquist "conservatives" very happy by assisting in the downsizing of the federal government. Christian terrorist mcveigh blew up the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City and killed 168 people. Right wing radio constantly blathers about reducing the size of government but no one stepped up to take even a partial ounce of responsibility for the tone which has been set in America.

2. And I recall limbaugh
getting all huffy puffy defensive about the part radio played in the event. He incites such crap and then says he's nothing but a harmless little dickhead.

3. McVeigh is and was scum
pure scum. As I learned his bio I realized that it was pretty close to mine right up to having basically the same job in the Army (He was infantry I was Cav). But then no one came around asking me any questions.

4. You know what?
Up until recently, you were informed that you had to be careful if you worked in a government building . . . I guess it isn't terrorism if it's domestic and the Repukes want to emphasize terror for 2006 . . .
