Nothing is immoral....Nothing is criminal.....

...with the Bush Administration. They just pretend nothing happened and go on their merry ways. They know that if they ignore it, the media will think it must not be important. Pretend it is all just liberal blather.

So what if they invaded another country under false pretenses. So what if it is - as reported in the last few days - that it was the plan, at least 8 months prior to the invasion, to have the invasion. So what if they are torturing people captured in the war on terror. So what if they lied. No big deal. We are at war. Ignore...

4. In fairness to old Aleister

The second part of that goes, "Love is the law, love under will".

The idea is NOT that one uses one's freedom to blow the crap out of developing nations.

Of course that's more of a 'guideline' than a 'code'...

6. The Law of Thelema.

The whole of it is:

"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law; Love is the Law, Love under Will."

7. Didn't you hear * say "That is all!" The Quislings sure did.

Extremely well stated and brief too. Take solace in the 55% who think the war was a bad idea. Of the remaining 45%, there is a weak sentiment among about 1/3rd of those. Just think of it, with NewsSpeak Networks in virtual reality blackout, the press nearly as complicit in the conspiracy of silence, we still have a clear majority of Americans opposed to the war! Now that's something to give us hope. Let * pretend right through a premature resignation and let his party pretend right through an ass-kicking in 2006 and beyond.

Excellent post!

8. Well, they are "making progress"

LOL. That seems to be the stock answer.
