The Mountain Rumbles. Bush Heads Deeper into the Bunker

David Michael Green wrote a very prescient article back in June of this year, and I am cheered by recent events that bear out his supposition.
Somewhere in America, on the highest perches of a tall mountain, a small rock has begun its descent, bringing others down with it. This rock was loosed by the release of a secret memo far across the Atlantic, but its path has been prepared by years of political deceit, arrogance, and aggression at home and abroad. The avalanche it has precipitated is at this moment gaining mass and velocity at a fast-growing rate. Its ultimate destination is Pennsylvania Avenue, in the American capital, though it remains unclear whether it possesses sufficient energy to carry that far.

While the vast bulk of Americans haven't yet a clue of what lurks on the horizon (because their media persists in not telling them), there is in fact more than a whiff of regime change in the air as a potential Washington Spring of our time gains momentum.
But now the mainstream media has begun its pile-on in the same blind rush that it pursued the Clinton impeachment and the Natalie Holloway missing white woman case in Aruba (which is still covered on all cable news channels more than the DeLay indictments, Frist investigation, or Plame CIA outing). That's bad, bad news for Chimpie. The news media is amoral, actually, and while it may have been licking the boots of the Bushits all these years, it wasn't because of any ideological orientation. No, they're just sycophants, groupies to power, cocksuckers of whoever the current rockstar happens to be. And now Chimpie has been found to be metaphorically OD'd in a hotel room with a dead underaged boy hooker, and the media smells which way the mood of the nation is trending and will dutifully open its collective puss wide enough for that chubby to stroke and blow its wad.

Chimpie's regime is going down, down, down. Down, down, down. All that remains is cyanide and a pistol shot and they join the other historical bunker dwellers in infamy as war criminals, as enemies of freedom, as usurpers of power through the most despicable lies.

If there is a hell, long may they burn.

"Of *whom*ever," Olaf... You said you were a writing teacher?

Oh, for cripes' sake! I drop one stinkin' "m" and now my credentials are impugned? Besides, even the Chicago Manual of Style gives some latitude for who-whom distinctions. Why be such a stickler? Turn those guns on Chimpie's diction, please! You'll never get off the first sentence.

I'm sure "Chimpie" would also have trouble with the whom/who distinction... I wasn't questioning your credentials so much as your editing skills... Don't worry, Olaf, I am still a fan. :-)
