It's time for Code Black, Code Pink is not enough; you can fly your pink flag...
your purple flag, your rainbow flag, your upside/down american flag, your peace flag please, your Down With CheneyBush flag, your black flag; whatever flag you may desire...

But despite these sometimes clear blue skies with puffy white clouds wafting past BLACK is the color of the times in which we live. Let the drum beat be a dirge, these eyes of ours be as dour, as stoic as our enemy's are already in their purgatory for the lapse of judgments elsewhere.

Let the drum beat be steady, let the scene be woeful, as terrible as the threat of a nuclear aftermath if indeed we are to believe it; for BLACK is the color, pink is not enough.

5. I'm all for the Jolly Roger. It describes our present government
perfectly.

8. I wonder how many freepers I'd piss off
by running the Jolly Rogers over the American flag, as a symbol of what happened to our country?

But then again, I intend to antagonize the Gathering of Eagles neanderthals with my sign "DEAD TROOPS AMUSE BUSH!"

11. Bush will have to work really hard
To keep from smirking whenever he talks about war now. He'll have to keep his amusement in check. No more comments like "Now watch this drive", or giggling when he says "World War III", or cutting up with the wounded about '"Gettin him a set of legs", remembering how he had too much fun in New Orleans (yuk-yuk-wink-wink).

:puke:

14. I've been lurking since before 9/11
Hi zidzi, During the first few months of Bush's administration he was galloping along refusing to sign off on the Kyoto agreement and undermining all the longstanding social programs and cutting military pay and benefits, etc. I looked for someone, anyone in the media to say something and to notice, but not one person commented. In pure desperation and with growing fear I googled "liberal sites" and voila, DU and Buzzflash and quite a few other links came up. I've been coming here practically on a daily basis ever since. I owe my sanity to you guys.

13. Well, the sign's going to be a literal sign at a war protest Saturday.
Edited on Wed Oct-24-07 01:36 PM by backscatter712
And rumor has it the Gathering of Eagles is going to be there...

Thanks for the welcome, BTW. :)
