Pacifists are the enemy?

So, Bush and his Merry Organization of Fascist Scum have placed anti-war activists on the no-fly list. Because if you don't restrict the movement of and harass good citizens, the terrorists win!

Of course, since Bush has conveniently thrown the gay marriage issue front and central, and the conservative-run media is eating it up like candy, don't expect any serious outrage from the sheep over this one, any more than over his last 84 offenses.

Wonder how long before all Libertarians are on the no-fly list. Ditto the Green Party. And then all Democrats. Followed by all Blacks and Jews, of course.


(Copied from here)

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

I'd really recommend reading through the discussion following Yendi's original comment, too.

Who else remembers Sunshine brand 'Golden Fruit' or 'Golden Raisin' biscuits?

They were a very flat, not overly-sweet biscuit, a thin layer of pastry on which raisins were 'squished' and covered with a peek-a-boo layer of batter -- sometimes the raisins showed through, sometimes it was puffier.

Well, turns out through a bit of digging (after I got a yen for them the other week) per HomeTown Favourites Hard-to-Find Groceries and the Epicurious Recipe Swap forum, Keebler bought out Sunshine some time ago and discontinued the cookie! Arg! (those evil elves...!)

However, the ever-surprising Vermont Country Store has their own version, called Garibaldi Biscuit Bars. Mmmm... might be worth the effort....


And a meme nicked from [livejournal.com profile] vyseryn. Other than leaving one of his excellent answers intact, I was drawing blanks, so I merely present it for your amusement.

If I were a meme.... )
