You must watch the video in the top right corner...

This is a must view video, directed by Aaron Hodgins Davis it's enjoyed nearly 350,000 hits on youtube, and should be watched by anyone considering returning the republicans to power. The video is a tragic reminder of precisely what's at stake for us in this coming election.

I have long maintained that should the republican party be returned to power yet again, innocent people will lose their lives. Unfortunately, this video only reinforces my unpleasant assertion by reminding us of just how dangerous McBush is.

People need to be clear; McCain is going to be even worse than Bush, and Palin worse than Cheney. If we're lucky these two Christian warmongers will only take our country to the brink, and not actual total destruction.

There's long been talk of 'useable' nuclear missiles, as unpleasant as that concept is, I'd always taken some limited comfort from the fact that those weapons would still need to find a president that is prepared to actually use them. But, with McCain a few electoral college votes from the presidency, I feel we are careering towards a key inopportune moment in history. A moment when all the wrong cards are coming together at the same time ensuring some tragic destiny for all of us.

Listen carefully to Scott Ritter, Scott is an openly verbal critic of the Republican war machine. He worked at the IAEA in Vienna (incidentally with my ex-father-in-law), and was one of the weapons inspectors that cautioned this administration that there were no WMDs in Iraq.

This video captures Scott making an impassioned plea warning us of the dangers of 'useable' nuclear weapons, informing us that, should we use them in Iran (or worse Russia!), we will be hit back, and it will cost us one of our cities. It's an horrific thought, but sadly not one from the realms of fantasy, as the republican party and their mega-corp masters open up new markets to raid, it becomes one that's not only plausible, but a very, very real possibility.

Because I feel it is so important that people see this video I'm going to leave it posted in the top right hand corner of this page in the hope that people will visit. I will leave it there until election day or until something even harder hitting is produced. This message must get out.



OK, there's so much more to rant about today, but I'll save it for another time, after watching that video I’ve been left feeling a tad humorless. The one thing I will say is that for next year’s final the US Open need to employ linesmen and women that can actually see the ball. Though Fedex played supremely well, poor old Andy wasn't helped in the least by some dreadful line calls at key moments, one that would've ensured him a break and quite possibly the second set.

Still, not to worry, eh! We might have lost the battle, but not the war, the new guard are arriving in the form of Murray, Djocovic and Nadal.
