Umbrage and other matters...

I'm going to give speeches to high schools in my area, talking about autism, and how autistics are under attack. I've written my first draft, and I'll post it here when it's finished editing.

I'm normal, the world is weird!

Okay, In Michael Moore's book Dude, where's my country? he mentions that Osama Bin Laden's family owns part of the Carlyle Group. Yesterday night, I found this in an article written by Frank Serpico: "But thanks to the Carlyle Group, the $11 billion contract for the Crusader is still alive. It seems this war on terrorism is a boom in business for the “Big Boys” and a burden on the masses."

Whoa, hold on. Let me get this straight. The Carlyle Group is getting rich off the bombs that the US uses. That money then goes to the investors in the company, including the Bin Laden family. Yes, the Bin Laden's are making money off Bush's war. I still can't believe it.

In more personal news, school has started, yippee. I'm planning to give talks in local schools about Autism, and the people who are trying to destroy all those 'afflicted'.
