A self-serving “tribute” to George Carlin and his legendary “7 words” monologue. Just in case you thought there wasn’t a candidate to the left of Barack Obama in ’08, here’s a healthy reminder.
- Too Much Corporate Power
- No Nukes
- Open the Debates
- Free Palestine
- Pass National Single-Payer Health Insurance
- Repeal the Anti-Union Taft-Hartley Act
- Impeach Bush-Cheney
- (Yeah, he goes over) Vote Nader
A few things. First of all, who in God’s name is going to vote for Nader on the campaign issue of impeaching Bush-Cheney? You can’t impeach someone who will no longer be in office. That’s kind of a pointless election issue.
Second, “Free Palestine”? Yeah, again this is a health reminder of how far-left Nader is. This is the guy who criticized Israel for its retaliation in Lebanon over the constant bombardment and eventual kidnap of Israelis. He believes Israel is guilty of war crimes and says the U.S. holds responsibility, too.
Lovely.
