7 Feb 2006It should come as no surprise that I am a fan of “graphic novels”, known as “comic books” when I was coming of age. One of my favourites is the Dark Knight | Dark Knight Returns series.
In the Dark Knight Returns, the US is run by a cabal with a holographic presidential avatar as their [...]

11 Jul 2005Karl:
I hear you’ve done a lot of good work for the Bush Cabal over the last eight years. I mean, you turned John McCain’s name to mud, you got the weasel…errr, President re-elected, you’ve controlled the media more effectively than Ron Ziegler.
However, when the White House decided to turn on Joseph Wilson, you volunteered to [...]

Ok folks. Your time has come. You may be incarcerated without your consent in the future by your government (not my government, your government) because they “suspect” you are mentally ill.
So, what are you going to do about it?
