 Kerry's Last Flip-Flop
   by white-hot Robert Parry of  consortiumnews.com

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 John Kerry may have written his own political obituary with a pathetic letter to his supporters
 saying that he won't back a protest by African-American House members against voting fraud in Ohio.
 Instead, he urges his supporters to call Republican leaders and demand that they reform the electoral system.

 The letter reads like it was written by the caricature of John Kerry that George W. Bush portrayed during
 the campaign: the indecisive, flip-flopping politician who wants to be on every side of an issue.

 Based on e-mails that we've gotten from scores of rank-and-file Democrats, they are sick of national
 Democratic leaders who act as if the country is operating under business-as-usual political rules.
 The rank-and-file sees a national crisis that requires both strong leadership and creative strategies.

 Mostly, they want to dig in and fight, and not ask GOP leaders for anything...
 

 Every word Parry writes is gold.
 Accurate news and far more accurate history lives at consortiumnews.com
 Plus, Parry is putting out more new columns each week than ever.

 For you newbies, Parry broke ..or helped break The BFEE's Iran Contra project wide open.
 From his writings, I'm guessing he feels the same way about Bush as you and I do.
 ...and he's not a pat-me-on-the-head and give-me-a-nickname Washington media whore.

 He knows what's real and he knows what counts.
 How many times have I said  consortiumnews.com  is the most important site on the Internet?

 Recommendation
 Robert Parry's latest book,  Secrecy & Privilege  is a must-read, must-have.

..

 With a $100 donation, Robert Parry will personally autograph your Secrecy & Privilege book.
 I say that's cheap.

 He could use the money and he's got the balls, the contacts and the muscle to break a Bush scandal.

 Sidebar:
 Do NOT send Parry funds to me.

 I recently exchanged e-mails with Mr. Parry and I'd like to do what I can to help.
 The last few years have been the worst in America's history.
 Robert Parry knows what's going on and he has the balls to say it out loud.
 More people need to know about him. The truth should be rewarded.

 White House paid Uncle Tom to betray blacks

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 Seeking to build support among black families for its education reform law, the Bush
 administration paid a prominent black pundit $240,000 to promote the law on his
 nationally syndicated television show and to urge other black journalists to do the same.

 The campaign, part of an effort to promote No Child Left Behind (NCLB), required Armstrong Williams
"to regularly comment on NCLB during the course of his broadcasts," and to interview Education Secretary
 Rod Paige for TV and radio spots that aired during the show in 2004.

 Williams said Thursday he understands that critics could find the arrangement unethical,
 but "I wanted to do it because it's something I believe in."  (That's why you took the $240,000?)

 The top Democrat on the House Education Committee, Rep. George Miller of California, called the contract
"a very questionable use of taxpayers' money" that is "probably illegal." He said he will ask his Republican
 counterpart to join him in requesting an investigation.
 

 You mean the radio nazis and the TV talking whores are for sale?
 You mean they accept hueueueuge cash payments to support bad programs?

 Why, I never would've believed such a thing - unless it had been happening for decades..

 9 GIs Die in Iraq, Deadliest Day in Month

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 A roadside bomb killed seven U.S. soldiers in Baghdad and two Marines were killed in western Iraq
 on Thursday, the deadliest day for American forces since a suicide attack on a U.S. base last month.

 Just three weeks before the Jan. 30 elections, the commander of U.S. ground forces in Iraq acknowledged
 that security is poor in four of 18 Iraqi provinces. But Lt. Gen. Thomas Metz told a briefing in the capital
 that delaying the vote would only increase the danger.  The previous four days had seen a string of
 assassinations, suicide car bombings and other assaults that killed 90 people.
 

 If only John Kerry was a man of his word.
 If only John Kerry hadn't gone to sleep on the job.
 If only John Kerry had wanted to win.

 Subject:  John Kerry

 Hey Bart,

 Just a quick thanks and a blessing from the tiki gods for your perseverance and your conscience.
 I worked hard as a volunteer on the Kerry campaign in San Francisco, organizing meetings, giving
 presentations, talking to folks in the streets.  And, of course, I gave money.  Ooodles of money.
 Every time I received one of his "we gotta fight" email messages, I responded with some green.
 Sitting through election returns on November 2nd was tough.....

 But, it wasn't until the morning of November 3rd that I really felt sick. Before I was even out of bed
 on the west coast, Kerry had caved in and conceded.  The memory of the stunned, nauseaous,
 heartsick feeling I had that morning will stay with me for the rest of my life.

 Alas, I had exactly the same feeling of stunned heartsickness on Wednesday when I received
 John Kerry's email message.  By coincidence, just a few minutes after reading his message,
 I came across a small blurb in the San Francisco Chronicle's society pages, describing how
 John Kerry and Teresa Heinz Kerry had spent Christmas at an exclusive bash in Sun Valley,
 as a personal guest of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

 Put the two items together and I wanted to hurl. Kerry can't be bothered to fight for fairness,
 democracy, or justice, letting others (like Barbara Boxer and John Conyers) do all the heavy lifting.....
 Instead, he parties with a guy who roundly abused him at the Republican convention, then again in
 Ohio only days before the vote. What about all those vicious GOP attacks on your character, JK?
 No reason not to rub elbows and wear kneepads over the holidays, eh?

 The feeling of disgust I felt for Kerry that day was overwhleming. Run again in 2008?
 Not with my money or my energy, John, you gutless cop out.

 Laura the Unloved, Gordon Liddy on XM Radio

  Excerpt:
 XM Satellite Radio announced that Dr. Laura Schlessinger, one of America's most-listened-to
 radio personalities, (That's a lie) will be joining XM in February. In addition, G. Gordon Liddy
 will launch an all-new show on XM in February.

"XM is proud to be the satellite radio home for Dr. Laura's popular radio call-in program.
 One of the highest rated programs on local radio, (That's a lie) with more than 12 million listeners,
 will now have a new and growing nationwide audience with XM Satellite Radio," said an XM liar.
 

 Laura has been replaced by more profitable programming in almost every major market

"Get some devastation in the back."
  --Bill Frist, looking for Siamese cats to kill, to his staff photographer just before
     his helicopter lifted off of tsunami-stricken southern Sri Lanka,  Attribution
 

 This story says, "Frist, a Tennessee Republican, was accompanied by
 Mary Landrieu, a Democratic senator from Louisiana."

 While that's probably technically true, at least for the chopper ride they were on,
 who else is traveling with Frist?  Maybe the wife and kids, a few cousins and
 a contributor or two?  Are they going to stop in Bali and Hawaii and Tokyo to
 check on "tsunami devastation" there, too?  How many weeks will the trip take?

 Subject: marijuana

 Another co-conspirator in demonization and eventual banning of pot was William Randolph Hearst.
 Hearst owned many newspapers and also owned paper mills and lumber concerns.
 When a new process was invented to make hemp paper cheaper to produce than wood pulp paper,
 Hearst was afraid of losing money. So he used his news papers (and government connections)  to join in
 the public fear smear campaign against marijuana. This, along with DuPont's invention of nylon (as outlined
 by Kent of Chester) and subsequent anti-reefer propaganda led to pot being viewed as the evil weed that
 people are still getting locked up for using almost 70 years later.

 Hearst's government crony made public claims of grass making people violent. After a proper study showed
 that to be bullshit, years later his position flip-flopped, claiming that marijuana use made people too passive,
 thus "our boys" fighting spirit would be diminished and America would lose wars.

 At this rate, pot will still be illegal for at least another 70 years, for no damn good reason.
 As long as big business stands to lose money, the weed will be banned.

 Don't Torture Yourself
  That's a job for Alberto Gonzales

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 The AP headline that came over the wire yesterday said it all: "Gonzales Will Follow Non-Torture Policies."

 You know how bad the situation is when the president's choice for attorney general has to formally pledge
 not to support torture anymore.

 Alberto Gonzales may have been willing to legally justify something that was abhorrent to everything America
 stands for, but it's all relative. Given that Mr. Gonzales is replacing the odious John Ashcroft, Democrats didn't
 seem inclined to try to derail the Hispanic nominee, even though his memo fostered the atmosphere that led to
 disgusting scandals in Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo.

 Subject: my letter to Kerry

 Bart,

 I was so pissed when I received that email from Kerry yesterday. How dare he ask anything of me.
 I've been fighting against the Bush klan for four years, unlike some democratic nominees I know.

 Here's what I sent them back in response.
 Keep hammerin' Bart...
 helldog
 

 Senator Kerry,
 I am so disappointed in you. The Bush's brought it on and you didn't fight.
 And now you want something from me. P'shaw.

 I read about you in the Rolling Stone article in late 2000 or early 2001.
 My Dad is a Vietnam Vet and was a huge fan of yours. Believe me, that's a big deal if my Dad likes you.
 Then you ran for President and won the democratic nomination. Then you caved the day after the election.

 I don't believe any of your crap now. I don't believe that Bush won the state of Ohio, or New Mexico
 or Florida for that matter. And I don't believe that you even care. Skull and Bones through and through.
 The minute I found out you were a bonesman, I knew all was lost.

 So take me off your bullshit mailing list please.
 I prefer to support decent, honest people.
 Who say what they mean and back it up.
 You sir, have shown for the last time that you do not.

 Sincerely,
 Chris

 Subject: should I or should I not?

 Bart,

 I have been wondering in the past weeks whether or not I should contribute to your website and be able to listen to your radio show.
 I have to ask, since I have never listened to your radio show, if it is the same content as you place on your website?

 They are completely different.
 I'm surprised you haven't heard the excerpts or free shows we've offered.
 

 The reason I ask, is because you do not really put much on the website,
 or if you do, it really is not much of what anybody should really want.

 The last time I counted, an issue had about 40 different topics.
 Multiply that by almost 1500 issues and maybe it just seems like a lot.
 

 I have researched your website from December 27th to today's, January 4ths.
 I have looked at each article as well as each e-mail and have actually found 14 different categories.
(I probably could shorten the number of categories, but I am a grad student and like to make things longer than possible)

 What I have found is something that I am not exactly sure you are aware of.
 For instance, in that stretch of time you had ten articles/e-mails concerning entertainment,
 while you had seven articles/e-mails on the tsunami's.

 I find the tsunami topic depressing so I don't spend a lot of time on it.  BTW, the masthead reads,
 POLITICS • HUMOR • ENTERTAINMENT • CHINACO ANEJO • POKER • SPORTS • GARBAGE • REVENGE • VEGAS
 So you're going to read about politics, humor, entertainment, tequila, poker, sports, Shirley and Vegas,
 The revenge we usually do in stealth.
 Do you feel like you were misled?
 

 You also had as many e-mails from people telling you how good you are (eleven) as you had as many e-mails/articles concerning Iraq.

 My ego is bigger than the Milky Way.
 My ego makes Rush and Dr Laura seem shy.
 I must be told every few minutes how great I am or I start to weep like Bob Dole at Nixon's funeral.
 If enough people fail to write about my greatness, I publish my own letters and sign fake names.
 I'm the smartest, best-looking fella in the world and women can't control themselves around me.
 I have a monster in my pants and the sexual stamina of a teen too young to drive.
 I have an IQ of 164 and I remind people of that constantly to belittle their puny minds.
 Sometimes people don't recognize my greatness, so I have to point it out to them.
 Those Pokerfests? They are really tributes to my superior intellect because I never lose.
 Plus, it gives the little people a chance to bask in my glory.
 Most people never get to meet a celebrity as cool and clever as me.
 My fecal matter smells like fresh-cut roses.

 As far as Iraq, what's to write about?
 The story never changes.
 People blow themselves up and Americans die.
 

 One thing that I did find odd, especially coming from another lefty, was that you had
 no articles concerning education, the enviroment, or the economy/jobs.

 Those topics bore me.
 I'd rather talk about my greatness.
 Did I mention I have an IQ of 164?
 

 Is this what the radio is like?

 BartCop Radio is the best thing that ever happened to the Internet.
 It's all about my greatness and how great I am.

 Subject: BCR Show 63 feedback

 In part one of show 63 you wondered how the AARP could be so stupid as to support a bill
 that blatantly hurt its own members.  The reason is actually pretty simple and every bit as
 disappointing as virtually everything about the country we have found ourselves in.  Last I read,
 AARP makes about $10 million a year from membership fees, but they make over $166 million
 every year from selling health insurance products to that very same membership.  And, yes, it even
 turns out that AARP is a major player in sales of pharmaceuticals.  Follow the money, as always.
 The AARP membership got sold up the river.  I'm fifty-one years old and get come-ons every few
 weeks in my mailbox to join the AARP.  I don't feel too incliined to take them up on their offer.

 AARP Rigs Its Own Poll

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 A look at the AARP survey itself (available in a PDF file) reveals that AARP misrepresented
 the results in its article. Of the 494 members surveyed in what was touted as a "nationally
 representative sample, with a margin of error plus or minus 4.4 percentage points," it becomes clear,
 contrary to AARP's claims, that those members surveyed did not conclude and could not have
 concluded that the new Medicare package would in any way help low-income elderly and those
 with high prescription drug costs.

 The survey simply shows that AARP and its pollster worded the question in such a way that it
 creates the illusion of support. It brings to mind Karl Rove and his Rovian methodology.

 Ratings idea for MSGOP

 Why not set aside some weeknight on MSGOP to screen F 9/11 and have
 Dennis Miller and Michael Moore watch it, pause it, and debate its fine points?

 Michael Moore would do it - would smart-mouth Dennis Miller?
 Or maybe Miller needs more time in the kiddie pool before he tries to swim deep?

 Trust me - it would be the highest-rated night ever for MSGOP.
 Does MSGOP have that kind of courage?

 Wait . . . Senator Kerry, let me get this straight . . .
 I just read your e-mail, in which you ask:

"Please join with me in calling Speaker Hastert and Leader Frist
  and telling them that you want action on election reform now."

 So, instead of standing up to Republicans by joining Senator Boxer in protest of your loss,
 you suggest to those of us who voted for you that we place a phone call to Hastert and Frist
 to let them know that we want election reform? And that we want this election reform now?

 No wonder the Swiftees got the better of you.

 Is this what you meant when you said "Bring It On?"

 Militants abducted three senior Iraqi officials, beheaded a man who worked for the U.S. military
 and killed at least four others, officials said Saturday, a day after a U.S. general warned that
 insurgents may be planning "horrific" attacks ahead of Jan. 30 elections

"I think a worst case is where they have a series of horrific attacks that cause mass casualties in
 some spectacular fashion in the days leading up to the elections," Brig. Gen. Erv Lessel said Friday.

"If you look over the last six months, they have steadily escalated the barbaric nature of the attacks
 they have been committing. A year ago, you didn't see these kinds of horrific things."
 

 Did Brig. Gen. Erv Lessel get permission to tell the truth about Iraq?
 Or is he a "loose cannon" who's about to discover he wants to "spend more time with my family?"
