The Extended Samizdat Holiday
...(or, Tony and Justin's lessons on how to not have time OR money... only $19.95, plus S+H)
Greetings, ladies and gents. [Justin] here. Tony and I have a lovely show lined up for you. It involves Constitutional amendments, the invasion of Mars, and a new Top 10 List.
However, we've decided to push that show back in order to offer up our reactions to the State of the Union address. I'll have to watch the re-runs, because I'll be working. And I'm probably the only American upset that I'm missing it.
Anyway, in light of the holiday... what? Oh, you forgot that today is a holiday. Or maybe your state begrudgingly celebrates it. At Samizdat, we would be remiss if we didn't acknowledge and celebrate the visionary that was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Take it away, Tony.
Fight the war in Iraq on this day more than ever: A lie to the American people that has already left 500 Americans dead, and at least 20,000 dead or injured Iraqis. In honor of Dr. King's legacy of non-violent resistance, spend 10 minutes today reminding others that we are in a war based on lies and greed.
Even if you believe that the war was a necessary evil, pick up the latest issue of The Atlantic. On whichever side of the war debate you fall, it's sobering to see how this administration went in with faulty intelligence and without a post-war plan.
"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
--Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968)
