Rolling Stone


This month's Rolling Stone has a few words to say about the current Congress.

"These past six years were more than just the most shameful, corrupt and incompetent period in the history of the American legislative branch. These were the years when the U.S. parliament became a historical punch line, a political obscenity on par with the court of Nero or Caligula -- a stable of thieves and perverts who committed crimes rolling out of bed in the morning and did their very best to turn the mighty American empire into a debt-laden, despotic backwater, a Burkina Faso with cable."

And that's just the second paragraph.

With Bush43 signing the Military Commisions Act this week elevates the United States to the select few nations to publicly condone torture. Quite a legacy. See the Keith Olbermann report on Crooks and Liars.
