Save Darfur ?!

So says the strange coalition of Zionist, Reform Judeo-socialist, and Evangelical organizations that have purchased all 100 billboards in my local transit station, and run giant images of emaciated africans. How Budweiseresque! How i-podlike. How clever that when you put several million dollars behind the idea of divestiture, and make an Israeli propaganda war against Islam in Africa, people can accept a public spectacle that we would not tolerate were Christian Fundamentalists to run gigantic images of aborted fetuses before a captive audience.

Kill the Janjaweed, but leave this racial obscenity out of the eyes of my children. Yes you have the loot to run this kind of shitty public spectacle. No, I don't have to endure it graciously.

And this is a good article on the strange bedfellows who resurrected USA for Africa meets Heart of Darkness:

Speaking of atrocity and misplaced priority, I hope the T is raking in the double-dough with their tactless and disgusting misuse of genocide imagery to build their nonpublic-nonprivate empire of sleaze.  Perhaps they can repair the wall of shame that reminds us that amid all this advertising revenue, our national transportation system and our nation itself are decaying under bad stewardship.



Or perhaps the man "in charge" can.
