Abbey Normall Speaks

Since ole GW stole the office of commander in chief - and the far-right wing multinational corporations and their lawyers took over our government - I've felt well a bit AB-Normal.... so my husband dubbed me "ABBEY NORMAL" ... ! So now I will share my distrust, distaste, and shame of the evolution of corruption by the colonist invaders and captors of my heritage, and my present existence - but hopefully not my future!

Karl Rove – A History of Dirty Tricks and Innocent Looks

If you want to know about Karl’s dirty political dealings, just ask Jim Hightower, one of the victims of this man’s obsession with power and greed:

“But, like a predator who's always seeking ever bigger thrills, Rove has now become a mass bludgeoner, attacking every "liberal" in America – a category that, for Karl, encompasses everyone who questions any aspect of the Bushites' inept war on terrorism, including their disastrous Iraq occupation.” From ROVE GETS LOOPY 6/12/2005 Memo to George W: It's time for Karl Rove to take a cold shower. http://www.jimhightower.com/air/read.asp?id=11711

I don’t know about you but as a citizen of this society most of us are held to a higher standard. When we lie about someone or something and we are found out then there are consequences to pay. Either by loosing credibility with the people around us or shunned by those the lies hurt. Not ole Karl! He keeps right on pumping out the innuendos and whispers behind the shield of the self-proclaimed Christian conservative rhetoric.

Joe Wilson and his wife are just the most recent and high profile of these cases:

“Whatever a federal grand jury investigating the case decides, a small political subgroup is experiencing the odd sensation that this leak has sprung before. In 1992 in an incident well known in Texas, Mr. Rove was fired from the state campaign to re-elect the first President Bush on suspicions that Mr. Rove had leaked damaging information to Mr. Novak about Robert Mosbacher Jr., the campaign manager and the son of a former commerce secretary.” CIA Leak Case Recalls Texas Incident in '92 Race By Elisabeth Bumiller The New York Times: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2005/080605B.shtml

Just think about it folks, anyone that questions or challenges Rove or Bu$h-n-Co is subject to a campaign of destruction and character assignation in order for big business and greedy politicians to continue to subvert our democracy and the future security of this country we call home.

“He's America's Joseph Goebbels. As a 21-year old Young Republican in Texas, Karl Rove not only pimped for Richard Nixon's chief political dirty tricks strategist Donald Segretti but soon caught the eye of the incoming Republican National Committee Chairman, George H. W. Bush. Rove's dirty tricks on behalf of Nixon's 1972 campaign catapulted Rove onto the national stage. From his Eagle's Nest in the West Wing of the White House, Rove now directs a formidable political dirty tricks operation and disinformation mill.” Exposing Karl Rove by WAYNE MADSEN http://www.counterpunch.org/madsen1101.html

It is our collective responsibility as citizens of this country to examine the events and situations of the past and compare and analyze what is happening now and realize that the hubris of those who are supposed to be leading this country are NOT – they never have – and look at the future of our freedoms and our world in regard to decency and hold these people to the standards that we are held to.

Inform yourselves, think – and then demand better! It is OUR future – OUR children that are going to suffer in the end!

It is ALL ABOUT the good of the NEXT SEVEN GENERATIONS!

Be Well in the Struggle!
