Our Fortress


Let's Meet Here...

The next time Bush demands more time, patience, and money for his delusional pursuit of revenge against a nation that never wronged us in the first place.

The next time Democratic congressional leaders say one thing and do another.

The next time some analyst/pundit/wanna-be-comic makes a crack about Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) and his big ears, slight physical stature, hopeless presidential aspirations, and - oh yeah - his unwavering courage and consistency of principle.

The next time pollsters remind us that the average American can name more "American Idol" winners than signers of the Declaration of Independence. Or more "Laguna Beach" characters than members of The Supreme Court. Whatever. Same shit - different flies.....

The next time we allow advertising to shorten our attention span and increase our tolerance. TO ANYTHING.

The next time an attractive 20-something celebrity gets arrested and the world stands still. Or the next time the 20th century's finest film director dies and the world doesn't.


Let's make a fortress, shall we ?
