Steal your data, steal your vote
  by Greg Palast  as seen on  gregpalast.com

 Link

 Excerpt:
ChoicePoint Inc. of Georgia, the guys who came up with the Florida list, are now the biggest provider 
of DNA data to the FBI. And they have a "counter-terrorism" contract to trawl for data on foreigners. 
Fair enough: after all, every one of the 19 hijackers came from Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf. 
But , in our investigation for Armed Madhouse, were able to get ahold of the no-bid deal, and oddly, 
Saudi Arabians are not on the target list. Rather, our government was secretly grabbing the citizen 
voter files of Venezuela, Argentina, Mexico and several other Latin nations. [Take a look yourself] 
Each one of these countries on the list has an anti-Bush president running for re-election or an anti-Bush 
contender leading in the polls. Is this a war on terror or a war on democracy?

We Need a New 9-11 Investigation
  One that's not run by Bush's hand-picked minions

 Link

 Excerpt:
Although the Bush administration continues to exploit September 11 to justify domestic spying,
unprecedented spending and a permanent state of war, a new Zogby poll reveals that less than half
of the American public trusts the official 9/11 story or believes the attacks were adequately investigated.

Talk Show Traitor

 Link

 Excerpt:
Lieberman has consistently supported Republican talking points. This has made him a lion of the Sunday talk shows, 
but has put him out of touch with his constituents — and with reality.  Lieberman isn't just an unrepentant hawk, he has 
joined the Bush administration by insisting on an upbeat picture of the situation in Iraq that is increasingly delusional. 
Moreover, Mr. Lieberman has supported the attempt to label questions about why we invaded Iraq and criticism 
of the administration's policies since the invasion as unpatriotic."

Subject: Sleazy Democrats

Bart, after reading your piece a crap site for a while, I noticed that you
make it sound like Democrats are honest people.  Looks like you are wrong.

They're honest when compared to Republicans.
 

Another sleazy Democrap just got busted for taking bribes.  Link

You say "another Democrap" as tho there's been a long string of them.
Name the last Democrat who got busted.

I think this should get a full investigation and if he's guilty,
he should be sent to prison for his crimes.

Do you agree we should do the same for Bush?
 

You also never mentioned a word about that Sleazy Kennedy congressmen that just checked into rehab.

There wasn't much to mention.
He said he overreacted to medication and checked himself into rehab.
What other course would you prescribe for him?
 

You roasted Rush and he is only a radio commentator.

With good reason. Rush has been screaming "Jail the druggies" for years,
now we find out he's a druggie but "that's different" because he's white and rich?

Rush also sent his housekeeper out into the night to score drugs for him in a Denny's parking lot.
Can you think of anything more cowardly than bullying the help into breaking the law?

The Crime that Covered Up the Coup

 Link

 Excerpt:
On September 11th the Dictator pulled off his first direct attack against the people of the United States,
and to date - he's still not been asked to explain his actions on that day. No one who was responsible for
things like military defense, intelligence failures, or preparedness has even been fired - and apparently at
least a third of the public is still fine with that! We've even allowed blatant fabrications about Flight 93 to
appear in theaters; posing as a fact, when too much evidence exists that contradicts every facet of that fairy-tale.

In a time of war, it is imperative that the public question everything that leadership does. The American public
seems to be otherwise occupied. Today there is a full blown dictatorship - where the Republic used to be:
If that doesn't matter to you - then just delete this, and get on with your very important life.

Subject: Dell story is fake?

Sorry Bart Dude but this story is a fake. check out  snopes.com

Larry
 

I never could get that link to come up, but I'm curious:
How can snopes guarantee that the government hasn't twisted Dell's arm to install a chip?
Do we think AT&T volunteered to backstab their customers?
Or were they coerced?

If DHS went to Intel, Microsoft and ADM and said, "Install this or we shut you down,
and if you tell anyone we'll charge you under the Patriot Act and shut you down forever,"
what do you think a profit-making company is going to do?

Who can stop Bush's power grab if it's illegal to talk about it?

And I still haven't heard anything about that Qwest guy who was later busted for "insider trading."
Did he do that?
Or is the Bush Justice Dept playing hardball with people who don't obey fast enough?
 

Reminder: I don't have time to do investigative work. Don't trust anything you read on the internet,
(Unless Robert Parry wrote it :)  or see on TV, or read in a newspaper. Anybody who sells you news
is going to sell you the news that makes them the most money, you can't ever forget that.

The bigger they are, the more likely they are to sell the near-truth for a higher profit.
It's not about being honest or getting it right - it's about raking in truckloads of cash.

You knew that, I'm just saying a reminder never hurts.

The Haditha Massacre

 Link

 Excerpt:
American military investigators have concluded that United States Marines may have killed
up to 24 innocent Iraqis, including seven women and three children, in an alleged massacre.

The Bush administration fears that the growing scandal over the shootings could lead to
war crimes trials and a wave of international condemnation that will further diminish support
for the Iraq war in the run-up to the mid-term congressional elections..
 

It just keeps getting worse.
Every Bush disaster makes the world hate us more.

Listening In
  by Seymour Hersch

 Excerpt:
A security consultant working with a major telecommunications carrier told me that his client set up
a top-secret high-speed circuit between its main computer complex and Quantico, Virginia, the site of
a government-intelligence computer center. This link provided direct access to the carrier's network core
—the critical area of its system, where all its data are stored. "What the companies are doing is worse
than turning over records," the consultant said. "They're providing total access to all the data.",

Subject: Karma of Journalists

The corporate news media is now the victim of it's own deceptions.

In 2003 when Bush started the war they were totally complicit in the marketing of Bush's war.
More people watch the news as they sold the "America at War" story, knowing at the time that it was false.

Now the monster they created has turned on them. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales is now going to go after
journalists and prosecute them for reporting government corruption. The Bush administration has redefined
corruption as a military secret in it's fake war on terror and reporters who report it may end up in jail.

We now live in a country where freedom is considered a threat to national security.

I feel the same about this . . .person.  I used to visit huffpo regularly (after I read BartCop),
but mostly for the articles - not her tirades.  What the hell is it with the lefties bashing lefties?
I just don't get it.  The right does the best they can to bash the left and then the left says,
wait, can I use your hammer for a minute to hit myself?!?

I WILL vote for the Democratic candidate - it doesn't matter who it is, and last time I checked, there aren't any yet.
Now is the perfect time to be supporting the races in Senate and the House.  Let's get rid of the lying bastard before 2008.
It can't get any easier to impeach this bastard, and then the next day something else comes out that DOES make it easier!

Let's do it!
Keep swinging
 Greg
 

Greg, good point.

I don't want a war with Arianna - but if she's not going to vote Democrat in '08, does her opinion have value? 
Why should we listen to her IF she's going to help the BFEE with a non-Demo vote?

Whose side is she on if she's not with the Democrats?

Loved the show, glad you put that Frank Zappa song "Dumb all over - a little ugly on the side" in there.
Hadn't heard that in years. It seem he was prognosticating the rise of the monkey, way back in '81

It would be great if you had a T-shirt with that on it, along with a picture of the monkey.

Escort Needed at NRA Rally

 Link

 Excerpt:
...as I approached the third-floor exhibitors hall.

"You can't go in there," a security guard said as I tried to enter the hall.

"What?" I said.

"You're a reporter, you need an escort," she said.

"Why do I need an escort?" I replied.

"Because of security," she said. "You're a security risk."

I asked why, armed with a pencil, an NRA-supplied reporter's notebook,
an NRA program and a camera, why I would be a security risk in a room
filled with guns and large men who know how to use them.

Subject: Why no attacks?

Dear Bart,

It's been clear for a long time that the 'terrorist war on America' is a total fraud.  Some war, a single attack.
The Washington sniper engaged every resource available in America; local, state, and Federal and they
couldn't stop them from shooting people realtime.  If he hadn't basically given himself up they still be looking
for the white guy in the white van with the ladder on top.

Israel has had a tank tread on the neck of any Palistinian suspected of danger and they still can't stop the bombings.
Given the ease of conducting an attack in this country on a mall, a rock concert, a college football game, a corporate hdqs,
a magnum church, etc., etc., the fact that it hasn't happened means conclusively that 'the terrorists' just don't want to do it.

So the relevant question is why don't they want to attack us?
It's difficult to speculate but Bush has been an extraordinary boon to their agenda
and perhaps their view is that another attack would cause America to burp him up.

Subject: your irritating obsessions

To the forgiving Bart,

I have read your site for a few years and enjoy it. I respect what you are trying to do;
however, there are a couple of things I find irritating.

Irritating?  Moi?
 

First, don't assume all Greens voted for Nader.

I don't, but I'm writing to dozens of people so I kinda halfta generalize.
 

Second, you appear to have become obsessed with you-know who.

If she makes the news, she gets a mention.
When she is unfairly attacked, I sometimes defend her.
Notice that you brought her name up, not me.
 

She is despised in the South and, I assume, the Heartland.

When she ran for senator, they said being a southerner, New York would never vote for her.
I doubt she'll enter a race she can't win.  If she's not going to win enough states to be president,
I say she'll know that long before it's time to declare.

Also, wouldn't it be sad if the GOP would vote for an appointed black woman before we, the enlightened party,
would vote for a damn well-qualified women with 14 years experience in the White House and senate?
 

I would like to see Gore run again.

Gore says he has the fire, but he promised that in 2000, too, remember?
He swore he'd fight, but then he got tired and went to sleep.
 

Another good choice, especially in the southern states, is Wesley Clark.
 OJGM
 

I like Clark.
He doesn't run from a fight and we need all of that we can get.

Subject: butt-plug Russert

Bart,

It should be a crime to allow Matt "Look-at-me!" Lauer to interview Tim "Butt-Plug" Russert before 8 a.m. 
They talked about Tim's new book "Wisdom of our Fathers - Lessons and Letters from Daughters and Sons." 
Watching the syrup drenched interchange was almost enough to make this viewer blow morning chunks.

I can't wait to see Tim again this Sunday on Meat the Press asking his guests about lessons they learned from their fathers. 
He is such a pillar of investigative reporting and questions that hold his Republican guest's feet to the fire isn't he? 
With Katie Couric soon to be the main news anchor at CBS it appears that the damn liberal media has completely taken over. 
That surely is the primary reason for our Dear Leader's lack of approval.

Subject: The Dell thing

Sorry Bart, I don't wear a tinfoil hat and I don't buy it and I'm sure I'm not the only reader calling you on this.

I have found Snopes to be pretty reliable over the years but to be sure I did some Googling and came up with 
dozens of debunks of this thing. It has been circulating for over a year and I've seen it before.  You just discovered it?

The photos appear to have been lifted from a product review of the Keyghost keylogger.

http://www.dansdata.com/keyghost.htm

The letter looks like a sloppy photoshop.  The margins are uneven and it doesn't look very professional or businesslike.

Can you show us anything that proves it's for real? 
Why doesn't the writer of this thing identify himself? 
I've spent years on the net and learned a long time ago 
to be skeptical of anything that isn't sourced.

They Won't Stop Lying 

 Link

 Excerpt:
The Bush regime has killed tens of thousands of people in Iraq and Afghanistan, mainly women and children. 
The deaths are excused as unintended "collateral damage" of the ongoing war, but the deaths are nonetheless
important to the tens of thousands of relatives and friends. An equally important casualty of the Bush regime is truth.

The American public has been trained to obediently accept their government's lies fed to them by their government's 
handmaiden, the U.S. Media. No statement or claim by a Bush regime official is too outlandish to be received with 
acceptance. Consider the claim by Rumsfeld, the U.S. secretary for war and aggression, made to the Senate on May 17, 
that Iran was to blame for the instability in Iraq.

Did the senators laugh Rumsfeld out of the room? No.

From: The Brew (with much snippage - you know how lawyers love to talk)

Subject: Facts

Bart, you don't know what the fuck you are talking about. 
She didn't say "SOME."  Your "facts" are a fantasy. 
She said, exact quote,  "They think work is a four-letter word."

My, my, I think I know someone who needs to smoke a hand-rolled cigarette.
Is there any chance you could flame off long enough to check the record?

"A lot of kids don't know what work is, 
 They think 'work' is a four-letter word."   Link

I know you to be an honest man, so I'll assume your you-know-who hatred 
has caused you to temporarily abandon your logic and your reason.
 

I will be voting for the Democratic candidate.

Then you have my respect and I won't attack you for it.
 

Let me put the question back to you, mister know it all:

Why, thank you.
 

Do you consider a vote for everyone but you-know-who in the Democratic primary 
"a protest vote for a candidate who can't possibly win"? 

No.
If you (or anybody) doesn't like you-know-who, don't vote for her in the primary.
If she can't survive the primaries she's not good enough to be president.

I would like to see the anti-frontrunner quotes at a minimum because they'll use those against US in November.
I wish I had a dime for every time the vulgar Pigboy quoted Bob Kerrey saying, "Bill Clinton is a very good liar." 
Bob Kerrey should have know better than to deliver a shipload of ammunition to those people

You'll never see a Republican call Bush a liar because they're not suicidal like we are.
 

If Gore manages to beat the current front-runner in the primary, will you support him, 
or will you continue to attack him as a "quitter", just like you have been doing since 2000? 

I will support the Demo candidate 100 percent.
 

If Kerry is the candidate, will you run never ending photos of him in a the moon suit? 

Probably not, but do you think he learned his lesson?
.
It would be great of Kerry had the fucking brains to not get in the goddamn condom suit in 
the first goddamn place - wouldn't that be nice?  Wouldn't it be great if he had half a brain?

Seriously, if I had been on Kerry's staff I would've risked jail time and physically tackled him
and wrestled him to the ground to prevent him from making such a total idiot out of himself.

No undecided voter is going to vote for this guy.

If Kerry had an IQ of 64, he'd realize that, 
but nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
 

If Feingold wins the nomination, will you put him in a pink tutu? 

No, he holds what little sac the Democrats have left.
 

You are pretty quick to attack my loyalty, so who are you more loyal to, the Democratic party, or her?
Just wonderin'
Brew
 

You said you'd vote Demo in November 2008 (and I believe you) so I won't attack your loyalty.
When I ask, "Are you going to vote Dem in November of 08?" that draws a clear line. People who 
answer, "maybe" or "I'm not sure," are helping Bush and they need to realize that before November 08.
If one intends to help Bush with a vote other than the Democrat, they should register as GOP.

I'm voting Demo in 08, my loyalty is (reluctantly) to them, but first we gotta get the House in '06.

Subject: as you wish

Bush has failed in many ways. 
You focus on foreign policy (Iraq, Afghanistan, Bin Laden, etc.), we conservatives focus on 
domestic policy (Medicare Drug program, excessive spending, failure to make tax cuts permanent, etc.)

He is still the better of the alternatives offered. 
 Chuck
 

Chuck, I assume you're a wealthy man, because if you're not, you're not voting your wallet.
Bush took money from the middle class to give to the super-rich.

Then he borrowed trillions more from China and the Saudis to give even more trillions to the super-rich.
We're 9 trillion dollars in debt and that doesn't count the war that you're not focused on.

Congrats on achieving great wealth,
