Need help finding a copy of the photo of Cheney...
To put at the top of this flyer, legally.


What will be YOUR legacy?



Will your children receive a legacy to be lived up to, or, one that must be lived down?

The idea for this essay came from that newspaper photo of our dear Mr Cheney in Auschwitz. I couldn't get over how absurd he looked. Did he just get in from chopping wood? This was a very serious event. An event commemorating the establishment of a legacy that will take generations of the perpetrators' children to live down.

Over the last 3 days, the U.S. Senate has entered into the Congressional Record direct evidence that would result in war crimes charges if the United States was a signatory of The International Court. The man they were speaking about was the archetect of the dubious legal advice leading to the recent torture outrages, and consequent further harm to the international legacy of my country.

And then 60 Senators approved this man to be the person in charge of the entire U.S. Department of Justice! An office that makes him possibly the most powerful law enforcement agent on the planet. Do those hens not recognize a fox when they see one?

We were snookered. It's time to stand up and say this is my country! Enough! It's time to invoke the fourth branch of government: We The People.

On Nov. 3rd I awoke to a startling news report: W had won. I was surprised enough to begin researching.

Now I have to claim right here that I have a pretty good BS detector. Oh sure, I've fallen for lines before, but not usually for long.

The deeper I dug the dirtier it got. The dirtier it got the uglier it got.

I found the "Plan for a New American Century" website. It's all laid out there. Worded in generalities, but the intent is crystal clear: Build the US into the dominant nation for the next 100+ years. The requirement of a "New Pearl Harbor" for implementation and most recently a thinly veiled call for a draft.

Under that name, it goes back to 1997 when they published their relatively innocuous "Statement of Principles." It was signed by 25 powerful people, including Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, and Jeb Bush.

Gary Bauer, one of the signers, runs the "Family Research Council" which is a PAC for the dominionist James Dobson's "Focus on the Family" organization. You know, the people who think cartoons can be gay.

The thing I can't figure out is why didn't the Democrats use what I've found during the election? It was certainly available to them. Why are they behaving like steers being led to slaughter? Perhaps when we get to the root of that we will understand how this has happened.

One thing is clear to me now. It's up to us, you and I, to be The Bush Opposition. Stand up. Seek truth. Spread the word. Wear a paperclip so that we can find each other.

What will be your legacy?



It is intended for stealth distribution in stores.

1. Please make this correction:
...It's up to us, you and I, to be The Bush Opposition... Should be you and me. Us = you and me, not you and I.

I didn't read your whole flyer.

I have pictures of Cheney at Auschwitz. I can post one here, but you'll have to copy it relatively soon.

3. You have them with rights for this kind of use?
That would be outstanding. I'll PM you an email.

5. Check your DU mail.
Do you need rights if you are distributing this "stealthily"?
