Historic Day in the US - It is not a Democracy...

January 6th 2005 is a historic day in the US.

Today has exposed US pResident George Bush, appointed in 2000 to his first pResidency by his cronies in the corrupt American Judiciary, becomes the only pResident of the US who will have to depend on his corrupt party members to be appointed to the pResidency a second time.

Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones from Ohio was joined by Senator Barbara Boxer from California to challenge the electoral votes from Ohio resulting in members of both houses retiring to their respective Houses to debate the issues. And the report by Congressman John Conyers Jr., Dean of the Congressional Black Caucus and Ranking Minority Member of the House Judiciary Committee is as explosive as it could and it revealed how the Bush Crime family does it dirty work in stealing elections in the US.

Important is that new Senator Barack Obama joined Senator Boxer and a few other Democratic Senators in bringing this to the floor of the Senate, where the entire process of the Presidential election in the US was torn to bits. The process was repeated in the House of Representatives with Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich and Independent Congressman Bernie Sanders showed the world that US was a fake democracy!!

Sadly, the event was marked by the cowardly behaviour of John Kerry, who could not even be present at today’s events and who conceded the election to Bush in a manner which was bordering on traitorous behaviour.

The day however started with the report which was published that the US army reserve was a 'broken' force. The report stated

”The commander of the US army reserve says it is rapidly degenerating into a "broken" force.

Lt Gen James Helmly, in a leaked memo to the Pentagon, says the reserve has reached a point where it cannot fulfill its missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. more....”

And in a parallel event that was taking place in Washington D. C., Bush’s nominee for the post of Attorney General of the US, Alberto Gonzales, was being torn to bits on his past functioning as the legal advisor to the pResident.

One could see from his face and eyes that this person is probably the most experienced “liar” and will do anything to chase “his American dream”.

At the Senate Confirmation hearing, the senior senator on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Democrat Patrick Leahy, said the Bush administration in its first four years had set out to "minimize, distort and even ignore our laws, our policies and international agreements on torture and treatment of prisoners. America's troops and citizens are at greater risk because of those actions".

Indeed, this is a historic day in the US but if any American says that they have the greatest democracy in the world - we can guffaw loudly - HA, HA, HA!!
