"While the nation's attention is focused on
the slow-motion deterioration of Iraq, the White House for months
has been at war on the home front --
clashing repeatedly with the CIA in a rare series of public disagreements.
They've fought over intelligence that
seemed to predict the 9/11 terrorist attacks. They've fought over whether
Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass
destruction. They've fought over a seemingly vindictive White House
leak that identified an undercover
CIA agent. According to Thomas Powers, a widely respected authority on
the nation's spy business, that conflict
has put the CIA -- and U.S. national security -- in peril....
Powers wonders who will take
the rap for 9/11 and the "horrific, calamitous" mistake in Iraq."

I can answer that - anybody but the guy responsible - Bush.
Excerpt:
The Stop The War Coalition said yesterday
that it had been told by the police that it would not
be allowed to demonstrate in Parliament
Square and Whitehall next Thursday - a ban it said it was
determined to resist. The coalition says
that it has also been told by British officials that American
officials want a distance kept between
Mr Bush and protesters, for security (political)
reasons
and to
prevent their appearance in the same television
shots.
The Metropolitan Police banned the Parliament
Square and Whitehall route by the use of Sessional Orders
- which can be enforced for such a purpose
when Parliament is in session.

"War

This is my big chance! I'm a big war hero!"
From
Baghdad to Dover - a group hug
saw it on smirkingchimp.com
Excerpt:
President George W. Bush says HE is the
one responsible for giving the hugs and for comforting
those whose young loved ones have fallen
-- broken and bloody -- in his mighty crusade to rid the
entire world of evil and to bring every
single evildoer to justice, one by one by one.
Yes. He is responsible. We are not to worry
our pretty little heads about it. We are to remain silent
because our president says he is our national
voice. He is our conscience. With each fallen son or
daughter, he speaks for us -- although
a bit glibly and far too rapidly. In his best John Wayne
"I'm only gonna say this once" voice, Bush
says our hearts-and-minds-and-souls- and-thoughts
-and-prayers "go out" to grieving mothers,
fathers, wives and children of these brave soldiers and marines.
When asked why the "Chief Hugger and Comforter"
refuses to address the daily loss of American life,
why he attends no funerals, why he is AWOL
from solemn duty at Deleware's Dover Air Force Base,
his spokespersons say there's no need to
repeat the heart-and-soul mantra every time an American
is killed, because -- by golly -- this
is going to be a long war.
...
"I'm
too busy to go to funerals.
Now, ...watch this drive..."
Letter from a Veteran
Excerpt:
As a vet, I don't want to see my nephews
and friends sucked into the military, when it was all unnecessary from
the start.
If they decide to go, I'll be proud and
send them off with all my prayers. But I don't want to see them forced
into it.
Bush lied us into war, and I don't want
anymore men & women coming home in boxes because of it. I don't want
to
hear them play taps as someone I love is
lowered into the ground. We have to let people know that a vote for Bush
is a vote to send your son, or brother
into a war that was never needed for a president that was never elected.
Bush
Lays Wreath to 'Honor' Veterans
Cruel joke not seen as funny by all military families
Excerpt:.
Mired in a complicated, unfinished mission
in Iraq, Bush paused on Veterans Day to reflect
on the sacrifices of 140,000 U.S. soldiers
in Iraq and Afghanistan and to honor soldiers of past wars.
"This nation has always gone to war reluctantly,"
Bush lied.
"The loss is terrible. It is borne especially
by the families left behind, but in their hurt and in their loneliness,
I want these families to know: Your loved
ones served in a good and just cause," he lied again.
Excuse me, but stealing Iraq's oil is not
a good and just cause. Dying trying to take bin Laden into custody
is a good and just cause, not raping
Baghdad so the B.F.E.E. can steal more billions. Of course,
right after
lying to the military families Bush went
back to Al Gore's house and worked on ways to cut the salaries and
benefits for the men and women who are
currently being shot at under orders from the Commander in Thief.
...
"Screw
those whiners!
They're overpaid, anyway."
Excerpt:
Every time a soldier dies in Afghanistan
or Iraq, Gordon Hartke pushes another stick holding a flag into the ground
of his front yard.
The landscaping contractor started with
a box of 300 of the 10-inch by 18-inch American flags, placing them one
by one through the
Afghanistan "War on Terror," the Iraq invasion
and the tenuous cease-fire. He started hanging them from fishing line strung
between
his trees, but before long, the string
was full and the box was empty. Now there are 353 flags and he has had
to start sticking them into the ground.
He has ordered another 60 from his Rhode
Island-based supplier. Those should will include a British, Australian
and a POW flag.
With soldiers dying in ones, twos and threes
every day, he's stopped putting them out one at a time, he said.
"I have to do them a dozen at a time," he said.

Quotes
"Tensions between U.S. forces and Iraqis in
the Shiite Muslim enclave, Sadr City, rose Monday after
the head of the U.S.-appointed municipal
council, Muhanad al-Kaadi, was shot and killed by an American
soldier guarding municipal headquarters.
The U.S. military said the shooting occurred Sunday when
al-Kaadi got into an argument with
a soldier guarding the council headquarters. The statement blamed
the altercation on "his refusal to
follow instructions of the onsite security officer who was enforcing"
regulations "in accordance with the
rules of engagement." An American medic administered first aid
and rushed him to a military clinic
where he was pronounced dead, a U.S. statement said. Al-Kaadi,
who spoke fluent English, had been
trying to improve relations between the Americans and residents
of the impoverished community."

Larry
Flynt has nude photos of Jessica Lynch
Says he won't publish them because Bush already screwed her
Click Here and then Click Here
Excerpt:
The photos, which Flynt's publicist says
shows her undressed (they mean topless) posing
with male soldiers, were sold to Flynt
last month, according to a statement from Flynt.
The publicist, who would not give her name, said Flynt "has no plans to use the photos."
"Jessica Lynch is a good kid, she's not a hypocrite
or out to fool anyone," Flynt's statement said.
"She's just a victim of the Bush administration,
who is using her to justify the war in Iraq and force-feed us a Joan of
Arc."
FOX News: Larry Flynt said he's bought the photos of Lynch
to prevent them from ever being published.
That Larry's a real sweetheart, isn't he?
It seems that any woman who poses topless "with the guys" can't
be too shocked if those photos
get circulated, especially now that she's one of the most famous
people in America.
BTW, I saw Diane Peroxide on Regis and Kelly Tuesday morning.
She talked about her interview with Jessica,
and told a cute story. She said once when Jessica called home, she
asked her mom if her story had made it into
the County newspaper. Her mom assured her that her story got a little
more attention than that.
Subject: Is America torturing prisoners?
There have been many allegations that the
Bush Administration is torturing prisoners of war
being held indefinitely at Guantánamo
Bay, which they deny. But who is telling the truth?
Are they being tortured or aren't they?
The question can be easily resolved if Bush would
let in the media or the Red Cross - but
he refuses to do so. Why? Who knows for sure -
but when you have a president who is covering
up - it makes you wonder if he has something to hide.

Bloated 'Rosie'
From yesterday's NYPost - their site won't come up today
Excerpt:
The CFO of the former publisher of Rosie
O'Donnell's magazine admitted yesterday that they
reported bogus circulation figures to keep
it afloat. Lawrence Diamond, CFO of Gruner + Jahr USA,
said company executives decided to "manage
the financials" of Rosie magazine in order to keep publishing.
There was a critical clause in the contract
between O'Donnell and her publishing partner that if Rosie
lost more than the threshold amount of
$4.2 million in a fiscal year, either side could call it quits.
"I think it was obvious we did not want to shut
down," Diamond testified.
That has to be a crime, right?
I never read her stupid magazine, but I
assume they sold ads?
If they lied about their circulation, they
obtained money under false pretenses, right?
But since they're white and rich, they won't even be charged.
Sidebar:
When I was in high school in Little Rock,
I went over to a friends house one day.
I think his name was David Wilson and his
doctor father was super-rich.
Their mansion had white pillars like the
White House, and I remember him saying
they were so rich, they had two subscriptions
to TV Guide. That way, if two people
wanted to read TV Guide
at the same time, nobody would have to wait.
Well, I guess I'm super-rich now, because
we get two issues of TV Guide every week.
For a dollar a year, they send an extra
issue, which seems very unlikely, but I'm sure they
do that so they can tell advertisers how
much their circulation is growing. I guess nobody
really gets hurt except the postman, who
havs to carry double the weight. Is that fair?

November 12, 1943
The Germans launched division sized combined
sea borne and airborne invasion of the British held
island of Leros in the Aegean Sea. The
British defenders were subjected to heavy air attacks from
Stuka dive-bombers as the RAF was unable
to provide support to the distant outpost. Heavy fighting ensued.
Soviet forces continue their drive out of
Kiev, entering Zhitomir. German resistance grows more serious
as reinforcements arrive to begin patching
up their shattered lines.
The 52 surviving Japanese aircraft at Rabaul
were withdrawn ending the biggest threat to the Marine
operations on Bouganville. Many of Japans
best pilots were lost in this forlorn campaign.

Quotes
"Last week the magazine Army Times ran a story
with the headline "An Act of `Betrayal,' " and the subtitle
"In the midst of war, key family benefits
face cuts." The article went on to assert that there has been 'a string
of actions by the Bush administration
to cut or hold down growth in pay and benefits, including basic pay,
combat pay, health-care benefits and
the death gratuity paid to survivors of troops who die on active duty
...one might have expected the administration
to treat the military differently, if only as a matter of sheer
political calculation. After all, the
military needs some mollifying: the Iraq war has turned increasingly
nightmarish, and deference toward the
administration is visibly eroding. Even Pfc. Jessica Lynch has,
to her credit, balked at playing her
scripted role...Publications like Army Times are obviously going off
the reservation. Retired military officers,
like Gen. Anthony Zinni - formerly President Bush's envoy
to the Middle East - have started to
offer harsh, indeed unprintable, assessments of administration
policies. If this disillusionment spreads
to the rank and file, the politics of 2004 may be very different
from what anyone expects."

Subject: The death of irony???
After September 11th, I remember all these
people saying that "Irony is dead".
I never got the connection between irony
and a couple dozen homicidal lunatics
crashing planes into buildings, but that's
beside the point.
Today, our AWOL un-elected "president" gave
a speech honoring soldiers in
the service of democracy at the freaking
Heritage Foundation, a group dedicated to,
among other things, establishing a Christian
theocracy in America.
Okay? Get that? A deserter honoring
soldiers?
A chimp-like buffoon who committed election
fraud praising democracy?
To a group who would like us to be ruled
by religious edict?
The death of irony???
We are the United States of Irony.

Ten Commandments Judge Heads to 'Trial'
Excerpt:
In a recent interview with WAFF-TV News,
Moore said, "The very purpose of [the First Amendment]
was to acknowledge God and to allow the
freedom to worship God. The Constitution of Alabama says
that our justice system, over which I'm
the chief administrating officer, is established in evoking the favor
and guidance in almighty God. So whether
you're talking about your state constitution or your federal
constitution, it acknowledges God.
"This judge simply said we cannot acknowledge God," Moore added.
Why do people follow a man they know is lying?
Nobody ever said this nut couldn't acknowledge God.
They said he couldn't put a 5000 pound chunk of granite on property
he didn't own.
Every follower of his knows this, but they must reject the facts to build a case.
Subject: North vs South
I grew up in NW Okla (remember Miss America?) and when I was 24 moved to Oregon.
Although never used in my home the "N" word
for blacks was used so frequently that until I was
about 14 years old I didn't even realize
that it was a derogitory word. And this in a town where
the nearest black person lived 125 miles
away in Enid. They hated what they did not even know.
Just last week my father, who still lives
there, told me how he changed churches because they let
the pig farmers come to his old church.
I thought, "How Christian." He's always been so happy
that OK is a right to work state. To me
that means: right to work for free state.
I'm just glad I escaped.

Jessica
Lynch
saw it on Buzzflash
Excerpt:
The Bush Cartel Ministry of Truth heard
that a young blonde female soldier was severely injured
and they made up a heroic story about her,
as part of their ongoing Iraq-war attempt to manipulate
American public opinion.
And what does Jessica Lynch do? She has
the nerve to toss out the script the propagandists wrote for her.
She has the audacity to speak for herself.
She has the American heartland respect for the truth. She became
a hero, in an entirely different role than
the Bush Cartel wrote for her.
Jessica Lynch, the young woman who joined
the army after she was turned down for a position at Wal-Mart
has something no one else in the Bush Cartel
has -- or anyone in the fawning corporate media -- or anyone of
the braying "amen choir" of millionaire
GOP television and radio pundits: Jessica Lynch has integrity.

Quotes
"As the war in Iraq continues to go badly,
sending back news of a daily casualty count,
Bush's common-touch artifice is beginning
to wear thinner than the backside of his
Crawford jeans. Showing through is
the real Bush, his swaggering arrogance,
unidimensional understanding of issues,
congenital lack of sympathy and intense pique
at challenging questions. When Bush
was asked at a recent news conference whether
he could promise that there will be
fewer American troops in Iraq in a year, he refused
to answer, calling it a "trick question."
Bush has no oratorical powers to justify his
policies and treats anyone who asks
him to do so as his enemy."
