Wheeee! So hard to get out of bed. I wish it were for reasons other than I'm just tired in the morning. Rar.

So Inari-sama has posted something thoughtful. Even if it does remind me of Angel last night. Spike does get all of the best lines. "Well, you got your fire hell, your ice hell.... ice hell... upside down hell..."

Apparently the woman who took that photo I posted yesterday lost her job because of it. That's a damned shame. It's not right. I wouldn't want photos like that to become common place but they should be available. If they were common place, they'd lose some of their impact and that would also be a shame. (Thanks for pointing this out [personal profile] gamethyme.)

Rar rar work.

Before people start yelling and screaming about Bush costing the woman her job, it bears mentioning that the policy dates from 1991 - and Clinton never reversed it (despite the fact that he had our armies committed all over the damn place).

And yes, it's a damn shame.

It's also worth noting that the government didn't fire her. She worked for a contracting firm, and that firm fired her. And her husband.

Similar to Michael Hansom who was fired for this entry. He didn't work for MS - but they banned him from the site.

They didn't work directly for the government, but it looks to me like the contractor playing "Cover My Ass," and "Don't Piss Off The Pentagon" - because it was a Pentagon policy that got them fired.

The problem isn't Bush. Bush is a symptom.

The problem is this country is run by oil companies and the military industrial complex. Wait. Is that redundant?

No, Clinton was no better on this issue, nor on many issues. But these evil bastards are gearing up for an end game where they are on top, and you are mashed into the floor during a food riot.

Wheee.

She is lucky she was only fired. If I were to do that I would be looking at much more severe punishment. As a contractor she violated policy and lost her job. Whether or not she was aware of the policy is irrelevant. There are many seemingly senseless rules in the world I live and work in, but those rules have to be followed.

Images like that invoke emotional reactions; not all of them are of shock and grief.
