Dear fellow Fruitcake Outleters,

It is been six months since my last message to you. I have been too busy to share with you all the dumb e-mail that I get from people, the lies of the neo-fascists running our country, or their handmaidens, the right-wing media.

We Americans that don't subscribe to Imperialism or Nationalism — we the Silent Minority, are currently under attack by Washington, and sadly the media and our fellow citizens who confuse Patriotism with Nationalism. In my lifetime, I have never lived in scarier times than these. Americans are content to have their government spend billions of dollars bombing babies in Iraq under the false premise that Iraq was a threat to us, and many more billions of dollars on tax cuts which disproportionately benefit the wealthy. The tax cuts do not work. Bush has gotten one tax cut after another, and yet none of them has lifted us out of recession. Bush has squandered the budget surplus that Clinton left us, and plunged us billions of dollars into debt. The only thing the Bush tax cuts are doing is destroying our economy, and Bush knows this. It is his intention to bankrupt our economy, to maim and cripple it so that not another dollar can ever be spent on a social program to help out those that weren't fortunate enough to have rich Daddies. But dare we say anything contrary about our fearless leader, we are labeled unAmerican. I urge my fellow Americans not to be bullied. We are at war, and the fascists are winning. I refuse to submit. I refuse to cover up the fact that Bush is a liar, a coward, a drunk, a convicted criminal, and a Baby Killer. Speak up, Silent Minority. Don't let these pigs win without a fight.

I shall return. I shall resume providing content for this website. The problem now is that I have been very busy, and the format of the website is such that it makes it very difficult to add new content.

I plan a major overhaul of the structure of the website and am looking forward to posting regularly again, as early as next year. I am going to start employing my skills as a programmer to make this website more automated and easier to use. Up until now, this website has been pretty low-tech.

Lately we have received a huge influx of hits. I haven't yet figured out where they're coming from, but I suspect it has something to do with our DMOZ listing. I don't recall soliciting them to list us, but I ain't going to argue that they don't. If I continue to get this type of traffic, I might even get on a web server that does not suck and add some forums.
