Four Lights: I Heart Gitmo?!
Edited on Sun Jun-26-05 01:28 PM by BloodyWilliam
Move America Forward, the superfluous MoveOn of the right-wing (and that’s being exceedingly generous), has started an “I Heart Gitmo” ad campaign, complete with souvenirs, to defend the unmonitored, unjust actions surrounding Abu Gh- sorry, Guantanamo Bay.

Yes, you too can have your very own I Heart Gitmo bumper sticker!

Now, let me point out a pretty obvious aspect of that paranoid, jingoistic, unamerican logo: Bin Laden is portrayed as behind bars in the picture, apparantly in Guantanamo Bay. We haven’t caught Osama bin Laden yet, and the administration has shown very little interest in actually catching him, outside of forgotten three-year-old rhetoric. I just want to put that out there.

Allegations of torture and other inhuman acts at Guantanamo Bay have been made. Not by left-wing conspiracy theorists, not by ‘America-hating’ foreigners, but by Amnesty International. Amnesty fucking International. The global organization dedicated to fighting human rights abuses, including torture, across the world. The organization Bush himself cited when gearing up the country for war

1. Oh, that's rich. Look what the numb-brains have for a bumper sticker.


Who is that behind the bars? Why, it's the man that bush doesn't really give any thought to anymore. It's the elusive Osama been Forgotten.

And if they think they can lock Osama up without an indictment and eventual trial, bwahahahaha!

2. You have got to be kidding
Can bumper stickers be considered oxymorons?
