Thursday, December 08, 2005 Mayor of London: Bush Admin= Gang of Thugs AfterDowningStreet: Ken Livingstone, the Mayor of London, threw a bash for anti-war activists and denounced the Bush Admin as "a gang of thugs." He praised the work of those from the US and the UK who have worked to end the war, including Cindy Sheehan, who also spoke. Before Livingstone introduced Cindy, he mentioned that the media sometimes calls him "anti-American." He said: "I'm not anti-American. I love America. I love Americans' competence, their lack of deference, their belief that they can achieve their best. I hope some day we can get a govt as good as the American people, a govt w/ the morality of Cindy." Yeh Ken... any of us who dare to hope that our govt would behave w/morality in mind are called un-American, traitors, and face the wrath of the gang of thugs, too. |
