Don't Impeach; Impale
This one is soooo good...

Don't Impeach; Impale
By Will Durst, AlterNet. Posted March 15, 2006.

Impeachment just isn't proper punishment for the evil, cowardly, imperialistic slime buckets of the Bush administration.

I don't know about you guys, but I am so sick and tired of these lying, thieving, holier-than-thou, right-wing, cruel, crude, rude, gauche, coarse, crass, cocky, corrupt, dishonest, debauched, degenerate, dissolute, swaggering, lawyer shooting, bullhorn shouting, infrastructure destroying, hysterical, history defying, finger- pointing, puppy stomping, roommate appointing, pretzel choking, collateral damaging, aspersion casting, wedding party bombing, clear cutting, torturing, jobs outsourcing, torture outsourcing, "so-called" compassionate-conservative, women's rights eradicating, Medicare cutting, uncouth, spiteful, boorish, vengeful, noxious, homophobic, xenophobic, xylophonic, racist, sexist, ageist, fascist, cashist, audaciously stupid, brazenly selfish, lethally ignorant, journalist purchasing, genocide ignoring, corporation kissing, poverty inducing, crooked, coercive, autocratic, primitive, uppity, high-handed, domineering, arrogant, inhuman, inhumane, insolent, know-it-all, snotty, pompous, contemptuous, supercilious, gutless, spineless, shameless, avaricious, poisonous, imperious, merciless, graceless, tactless, brutish, brutal, Karl Roving, backward thinking, persistent vegetative state grandstanding, nuclear option threatening, evolution denying, irony deprived, depraved, insincere, conceited, perverted, pre-emptory invading of a country that had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11, 35-day-vacation taking, bribe soliciting, incapable, inbred, hellish, proud for no apparent reason, smarty pants, loudmouth, bullying, swell-headed, ethnic cleansing, ethics-eluding, domestic spying, medical marijuana-busting, kick-backing, Halliburtoning, New Deal disintegrating, narcissistic, undiplomatic, blustering, malevolent, demonizing, baby seal-clubbing, Duke Cunninghamming, hectoring, verbally flatulent, pro-bad- anti-good, Moslem-baiting, photo-op arranging, hurricane disregarding, oil company hugging, judge packing, science disputing, faith based mathematics advocating, armament selling, nonsense spewing, education ravaging, whiny, unscrupulous, greedy exponential factor fifteen, fraudulent, CIA outing, redistricting, anybody who disagrees with them slandering, fact twisting, ally alienating, betraying, god and flag waving, scare mongering, Cindy Sheehan libeling, phony question asking, just won't get off the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge drilling, two- faced, inept, callous, menacing, your hand under a rock- the maggoty remains of a marsupial, oppressive, vulgar, antagonistic, brush clearing suck- up, showboating, tyrannizing, peace hating, water and air and ground and media polluting which is pretty much all the polluting you can get, deadly, illegal, pernicious, lethal, haughty, venomous, virulent, ineffectual, mephitic, egotistic, bloodthirsty, incompetent, hypocritical, did I say evil, I'm not sure if I said evil, because I want to make sure I say evil…

EVIL, cretinous, fool, toad, buttwipe, lizardstick, cowardly, lackey imperialistic tool slime buckets in the Bush Administration that I could just spit.

Impeachment? Hell no. Impalement. Upon the sharp and righteous sword of the people's justice.

Don't say that too loudly. I know it's a metaphor, but...

Jonathon "The Impaler" Sharkey For President



Honesty is very seldom heard nowadays, especially
from a politician. So, I am going to break from
political tradition. My name is Jonathon “The
Impaler” Sharkey, Ph.D., L.D.D.D. I am a Satanic Dark
Priest, Sanguinarian Vampyre and a Hecate Witch.
My Magikal Path name is: Lord Ares.

I despise and hate the Christian God the Father. He
is my enemy.

However, it doesn't mean that I hate all his
followers. This Country was founded on religious
rights and freedoms. This is guaranteed under the
1st Amendment of our great constitution. This right
allows me to worship Lucifer and the Goddess
Hecate, just as it allows you to worship the
Goddess/God of your choice.

<snip>

During my time as Governor, drug dealers and users will live in fear. I
will introduce extremely harsh punishment for those who not only use
illegal drugs, I will fight to make dealers serve life in prison, or better
yet, Impalement.

Any Terrorist who is caught in Minnesota while I am Governor, will find
out what the true meaning of my nickname 'The Impaler' means.
Right in front of our State Capital. Then Fed’s can take the terrorist’s
body from the impaling stake. If the US Department of Justice (DOJ)
wants to charge me with brutally murdering a terrorist, they may do so.
I do not see an American Jury convicting me.


I will not deny or try to cover the fact that in 2008, I am running for the
presidency. SEE: http://herndon1.sdrdc.com/cgi-bin/fecimg/P80002884
You may ask why you should vote for me, if in 2009 I could become the
President. The answer is simply this. During my first 2-years as your
Governor, I will work harder for you than most Governors do in 8-years.
My goal to become president can be achieved in part, by just how well I
serve Minnesota during my first 2-years.

23. Fine with me
Although i do think we should set the right example, and not violate Human Rights on them. So maybe the tar and feathers is out, though it would be primarily for the sake of tradition. It's humiliating but imo not dehumanizing. We'll make sure they won't experience much pain and live to think about what they have done for the rest of their lives - behind bars, in near-solitary confinement.
And of course we'll reclaim much of their ill-gotten wealth.

cabinet, in one large communal cell, one toilet, absolutely NO privacy, and 24/7, at completely random intervals, tapes of the screams of wounded and dying, with video. they are to dine only on mre's--or the contents of a food basket from a local charity that has just had its funding cut.

47. I still wish I'd asked Durst out for a beer when I met him
I'm quite sure he'd have gone if I'd asked, but I was too timid. I was talking to him after the LD caucuses in 2004 - he was a featured speaker - and quoted some of his own jokes back to him, which, like any comedian, he liked. ;-) Probably would have been a fun evening. I still kick myself for not asking him.

Will, if you remember the small lady with the really long red hair that you were talking to at the IAM hall in Seattle last spring, the one who quoted your: This just in! Fire - hot! Mexico - full of Mexicans! Reagan - Alzheimers! Who knew?! line at you, I owe you a beer!

can set this to music, it sounds like it would be the perfect thing for parties leading up to the elections.

It would also be great to send to our email buddies.
