Yes, this is a real product.

Welcome to the first post of my new political blog. This blog is titled after my reaction to many of the stories coming out of both Washington DC and the perpendicular world (it does cross with ours at a given point) of political punditry.

This blog will be mostly rant filled.

Basic bio about me and my politics:
I am a US citizen who grew up in Europe.
I currently live in Japan.
I am 24 years old.
I am a university graduate.
I am a military brat.
I am a registered Democrat.
I consider myself to be a moderate, but tend to lean to the left.
I am a major fan of President Obama.

And now for today's story . . .

RUSH LIMBAUGH SELLS PRO TORTURE SHIRT! You have GOT to be kidding.

No, I'm not. The comedian is selling an orange T-shirt with a swimming pool and diving board (Water+Board=waterboard . . . you're supposed to laugh). The caption reads, "Club Gitmo: When America was Safe."

Here is the link, don't say I didn't warn you. https://members.premiereinteractive.com/store/28566/41862_1.html

So let me get this straight, Rush is supporting the torture programs that may very soon land a former US President in international court for war crimes (when the GERMANS want to prosecute you for such things, you know you're in trouble).

He also laments the fact that the President has order that the illegal prison has single handily created thousands of new terrorist recruits over the last 7 years. So destroying our enemies primary recruitment tool is a bad thing? I'm not sure I follow this logic. The existence of Gitmo and the policies related to it are one of the reasons over 4000 Americans are dead. Does Mr. Limbaugh like that idea?

He also describes this shirt as his Economic Stimulus as a knock on the bill currently in the congress. This, combined with the slew of anti-Obama slogans and images on the front page of his website alone, shows that Rush Limbaugh doesn't possess an ounce of patriotism (This under his own law where not 100% supporting the President is tantamount to treason, a law he has spent nearly a decade shouting to the world).

In other words Rush Limbaugh is:
Pro torture
Pro war crimes
Anti rule of law
Anti military
Pro terrorism
Pro great depression II
Anti economic recovery
and. . .
Anti American

Just a few things to think about regarding the self proclaimed leader of the Republican Party.

Until next time, I'm RyuSensei and I'm not kidding.
