Joe Scarborough asks how we sleep at night. Here's my email to him. Add!

[jazzjunkysue]

Dear Joe,
Since you asked, the opposition to Bush comes from the clear and simple fact that we're not liberating anyone: We're colonizing the greatest supply of oil on the planet. Your hero boy president decided to invade Iraq on 9/12 because his masculinity was dashed by 18 hijackers. (Against All Enemies by Richard Clark. Why don't you read it, if you really want to know what goes on in this administration. While you're at it, read Confessions of an Economic Hitman. )


This was never about freedom or democracy. Stop drinking the cool aid, if you're going to call yourself fair and no-spin.

Every day 100-200 children die in Iraq of dysentary, and that was the original plan of PNAC, another group you've obviously never heard of. We've killed over 100,000 innocent Iraqi's and you can't figure out how we sleep at night? You're a murderer. I protested in the street and will continue, as long as this war mongering continues. If Gore had been president, we'd have quietly reined in hussain by now and taken out Al Qaida for good. Instead, we've got the oil, and Iraq is now a training ground for terrorists. Grow up. That's the reality. We were far safer before Bush rigged either election, and we all know it.

Try watching Farenheit 9/11 for starters, and be honest with yourself, at least, when the video of the Bush's sauntering hand in hand with the Saudi Royal family makes your stomach turn. This country was sold to the Saudi Royal Family (The Carlyle Group, google it.) and we invaded iraq because they hated Hussein. Now, as soon as we leave, Iran will take over, and we'll have expended 1500 american soldier's lives to give a really nice going away present to Iran.

Grow up and live up to your self hype. We're not all stupid enough to fall in line, and we never will be. We've got Air America Radio now, and you're slowly losing your base.

I'm so glad you asked.

1. I wonder how he sleeps when a woman was mysteriously found dead

in his office.

[quiet.american]

2. Thank you -- judging from the ever-present bags under his eyes, he doesn't

[ClayZ]

8. Anybody else thinking he hired

Rush L's maid?

[progressoid]

6. What's that about? I don't pay attention to him so I don't know the story?

What gives?

20. Thanks, jackster & ck4829. That's some spooky shit.

And of course a virtually silent media.
Thank god for the internets.

7. Touche.

Everytime I see that smug little grin, I wonder if he can even admit to himself that he is a murdering little turd that has no right to preach morality to the rest of us. Then I wonder if he would even care.

[Kerrytravelers]

3. Post the email address you used.

[livinginphotographs]

27. Here's the one I used.

[e-mail]


I tried [e-mail], but that one got bounced back to me. The other one worked a little bit better.

[Pam-Moby]

4. Great letter, thanks for sharing it... n/t

[jazzjunkysue]

5. Here's the link to the story: Politics Over Freedom, and his email

I wouldn't dare quote, cause his ego will certainly drive him here. Basically, his case is why do we keep ruining the party?

If you'd like to write to him, as well, get him at [e-mail].
That's one defensive little pit bull.

Here come the freepers.....3...2....1....

[deacon]

28. I wrote this to him

Joe,

Whats really nausiating is surfing cable news and seeing the media cheer nation building. It was an illegal war. There were no WMD. Need I go into how cheney used Chalabi to get this war?

The ends justifying the means is an immoral conclusion.

1,500 soldiers dead, more than 10,000 wounded, 100,000 iraqis dead. Torture seeming to be fine and dandy with this current administration.

These are the facts. How those in the media sleep is the better question. It's come out that some are being paid off by the white house. After watching the nausiating coverage of this election, bragging about shiites gaining an upper hand no less, I really am curious to how many are--since it's really hard to believe there are/were only 3 that have come forward.

Cable news has become a parody of itself, and it's a pity that it has become so complient. It's not news anymore. It's all opinion--an enormously slanted opinion it is, baseless in fact.

9. I LOVE it! I hope you ended it that way and aren't adding it for our

benefit:
"Sue, in NY, Middle School Teacher, 2 master's degrees. That's more than you, idiot."

Lots of good points and some really good zings!

[TomClash]

11. I saw him at the convention - he's a scrawny, mousy little guy

I bet Sue or any of her middle school students could take him.

[Syrinx]

12. to quibble just a bit

Bush was planning on invading Iraq long before 9/11.

Other than that, nice letter. :thumbsup:

[roguevalley]

14. He writes back? I hope so. I sent him this:

Considering the dead woman in your office, Joe, how can YOU sleep at night.

Give my regards to your co-workers at MSNBC, or as it is more commonly known: Last Place In The Ratings.

[jojo54]

15. Great letter, Sue!

I LOVE it!

[Swamp Rat]

16. Tell him "fuck you, you murderer asshole Nazi" for me.

:)

[CBGLuthier]

17. Dumbass don't even know his Beatles history

He claims to quote Lennon's How do you Sleep and says it referred to his bandmates.

WRONG!

It referred only to Paul McCartney. In fact, Harrison played guitar on it.

So, even in the tiniest details, Murderin' Joe is wrong again.

[jazzjunkysue]

18. Thanks: quiet.american, Pam-Moby, glitch, TomClash, jojo54, Syrinx,

(That's word-for-word, btw).

[Heddi]

19. You misspelled "Dysentery"

in the 2nd paragraph....Every day 100-200 children die in Iraq of disentery

Other than that, sounds good!

[jackster]

21. also, there's a divorce somewhere around this same time...

but I dont' know much about that....

[progressoid]

22. I just fired off this quick one to Joe

I sleep great at night. Here's why.

First of all, my wife and kids love me and I love them.

Second, I love my country and I'll do everything I can to get it back to being a respected leader in the world instead of a hated reactionary.

Finally, no one I know has ever mysteriously died in my office. So, I don't have that lingering over me ever day of my life.

Thanks for asking!

How 'bout you?

[one_true_leroy]

23. tell him...

i usually sleep on my stomach, but sometimes I like to sleep on my side (with my arm under my pillow, of course).

[Rapcw]

24. good letter thanks for sharing n/t

[AngryAmish]

25. He does not deserve to be in the same country as us

A just country would ensure that he is barred from the tv.

[livinginphotographs]

26. My email:

Not really issue-related, just something I think I might start doing on a weekly basis.

You ask "how can we sleep at night?" Well, I have a question for you, Joe.

Kill any interns lately?

-me

[tsuki]

29. Dear Joe,

I never murdered anyone. I sleep well.

[hangemhigh]

30. I can't say I was as eloquent as you-

this guy pushes all of my buttons! The letter:

Dunno, Joe, how do YOU sleep at night? With the ghosts of dead Iraqis and dead interns haunting you and your payola to waken and refresh you each day? You need to contemplate just how worthless of a politician you are to be thrown out of FLORIDA for god's sake! Oh, I forgot, you consider yourself part of the "media elite". Right up there with Don Imus. Ha. Ha. You idiot. If you ever stop thinking with your wallet and your dick let us know. Then we might listen. In the meantime, there are a hell of a lot of us who sleep just fine, after praying that our nation is saved from scum like you.

[jazzjunkysue]

31. No, but you made up for it in brevity. Thanks, all. This was fun!
