Bush Wants Wider War
   by Robert Parry

 consortiumnews.com

 Excerpt:
Bush and his neoconservative advisers saw the Israel-Hezbollah conflict as a chance to get
the Israelis to spread the war to Syria and achieve the long-sought goal of "regime change"
in Damascus. But sources say the Israeli government torpedoed the scheme, deciding instead
to concentrate on rooting Hezbollah guerrillas out of southern Lebanon

Whitewash Panel had Doubts

 Link

 Excerpt:
The 9-11 commission was so frustrated with repeated misstatementslies by the Pentagon
and FAA about their response to 9-11 that it considered an investigation into possible deception,
the panel's chairmen say in a new book.

Republican Thomas Kean and Bush lapdog Lee Hamilton also say in "Without Precedent" that
their panel was too soft in questioning Giuliani - and that the investigation may have suffered for it.

Duh!
Ya think?

The book, a behind-the-scenes look at the investigation, recounts obstacles the authors say were
thrown up by the Bush administration, internal disputes over Bush's misuse of the attacks as a reason
for invading Iraq, and the way the final report avoided questioning whether U.S. policy in the
Middle East may have contributed to the attacks.
 

That's fucking bullshit.
Hamilton was hired to cover this up because he was so helpful at covering up Iran Contra.

Job well done, Lee, and another black eye for the cowardly Democrats who let the Bushies
hand-pick their good ol' boys to "investigate" the biggest crime of the last 50 years.

"Whatever Bush wants, Bush gets.   He's the best president ever!"
 
 

"Unka Dick held my
  hand while we lied."

Govs bristle at latest Bush power grab

 Link

 Excerpt:
The nation's governors are closing ranks in opposition to a proposal in Congress
that would let Bush control the National Guard without consent of governors.

The idea, spurred by Bush's katrina disaster, is part of a House-passed version of
the National Defense Authorization Act. It has not yet been agreed to by the Senate.
The measure would remove the consent of governors for the federalization of the Guard,
which is shared between the individual states and the federal government.

"Federalization just for the sake of federalization makes no sense," said Gov. Blanco.
"You don't need federalization ... Just making quick decisions can make things happen."
 

Bush is a total disaster at everything he does. 
He should be stripped of power, arrested and put on trial for war crimes, 
felony stupidity and aggravated dumbfuckedness.

Quotes

"So this was what was happening by the Summer of '86, when Barger and I finally did
a story - we had 24 sources by this point.  It wasn't like two sources, or three sources,
we were up to 24 and we did this story in June of '86 where we laid a lot of it out.
And finally Congress - which had been very afraid of touching this - the democrats were
extremely timid - finally Lee Hamilton, who was then Chairman of the Senate Intelligence
Committee takes our little story with the rest of the Intelligence Committee over to the
White House and they sit down with Ollie North and they say, "Colonel North - we have
this story that says you're doing these things which are kind of illegal, uh, what about it?"
He said, "It's not true," they said "Thank you," and they went back to Capitol Hill. And I
get a call from one of Hamilton's aides, and I'll never forget this, because it was probably
my worst moment in the whole Iran Contra Scandal - he tells me that Lee Hamilton has
looked into my story, and he had a choice between believing these honorable men at the
White House or my sources and it wasn't a close call."

Aryan Nation in Baghdad
 Why are they recruiting skinheads?

 commonwonders

 Excerpt:
Where is it that the Vice Lords meet the Aryan Nation? Why, in Baghdad, where potential 
domestic terrorists and "army of one" nutjobs are getting top-notch weapons instruction and 
plenty of target practice. It's sure to come in handy when they get home. With the military 
unable to meet recruitment goals for an unpopular war, gangbangers and white supremacists 
are having a far easier time getting "moral waivers" to enlist.   The upshot: a future compromised 
in yet another way, as we train and further desensitize the psychologically fragile and psychotically 
embittered. Some of them, baptized in hellfire like McVeigh, the DC sniper a long list of others, 
could turn around and bite us.

You have emotional problems?  That's OK, we want you
You have anger management issues?  That's OK, we want you
Long and violent criminal record?  That's OK, we want you
Hate darkies and want to kill 'em?  That's OK, we want you

Mel's Tequila Sunrise
  by Maureen the Dragon

 Link

 Excerpt:
 I asked Leon Wieseltier, editor of The New Republic, how he would help Mel heal.
"It is really rich to behold Gibson asking Jews to behave like Christians. Has he forgotten 
 how bellicose and wrathful and unforgiving we are? Why would a people who start all the 
 wars make a peace? Perhaps he's feeling a little like Jesus, hoping that the Jews don't do 
 their worst and preparing himself for more evidence of their disappointing behavior."

Hmmm, I guess it's no surprise that the super-rich get special treatment.
After all, the vulgar Pigboy should be in jail for a bunch of crimes.

If you're not Mel Gibson and you drive 85 in a 40, you get charged with reckless driving.
If you're not Mel Gibson and you try to leave during a stop, you get charged with resisting arrest.

Katrina Diary

 Excerpt:
It took me three days to clear out the first floor. The only people in town were doing the 
same sorta thing. I cut-up downed trees in my parents' yard for something like a week. 
People helped each other. One day, I saw a sleek, smallish corporate-looking jet circling. 
I figured it was Heckuvajob Georgie, and started gesticulating wildly, screaming 
"FUCKYOUBUSHFUCKYOUFUCKYOU".   People who heard me looked at me 
like I was crazy, I yelled "BUSH!! BUSH!!" and pointed at the jet. They joined in, 
screaming at the jet and yelling "FUCKYOUFUCKYOU", at the jet. Then the jet 
peeled off, and everyone went back to work.

Subject: your mideast argument

Bart,
I think there are some points worth addressing in your current conflict argument.
If someone brings a missile launcher to your apt building YOU get the F out.
O.K. you have got that point all day.

No, the crazies refuse to conceed that point.
Survival is for cowards, haven't you heard?
 

The town of Qana was ruthlessly bombed under the claim that missiles came from that apartment.
The red cross was there and said no missiles came from there. Are they just a bunch of anti-semites too?

I have no opinion.
Some people say there were missles, some people say there weren't.
Who can we trust to tell the truth over there?
 

I was greatly disappointed to see you say that respected journalist Robert Fisk was 'like Mel'
inferring that anti-semitism caused him to report some untruth to merely slander the poor Jews.

His bias is clear - that's part of the problem.
Who can we trust to tell the truth over there?

<snippage>

Did you read Rachel Corrie's diary when it was published.
Was she just an anti-semite?   She was run over by a military bulldozer.

Bart's Law #3

Do not lay down in front of a bulldozer or a train or become a human shield.
The "president" will have you killed, rather than call off his bloody and profitable attack.
Apparently, the Israeli government feels the same way about protestors in front of tanks.

That's one difference between our president and a Chinese tank commander.
In China, when that man stood in front of the tank in Tienneman Square, the tank stopped.

In America and apparently, Israel, the "tank" keeps coming and crushes you.

Voting Bush's war
  by Helen Thomas

 seattlepi.nwsource.com

 Excerpt:
The political fate of Joe Lieberman (R-Kissyface) is on the line Tuesday in an election that has
become a referendum on Bush's war. Lieberman, an all-out supporter of Bush's Quagmire, is
being challenged by an anti-war political novice who is giving Lieberman a run for his political life...
I hope there is a grand awakening for the senator when he learns that voters do care why we got
into the war and, better still, how we can get out.

  "Kiss me, Georgie, right on the lips!"

Joe, don't worry.
After CT voters fire your Bush-loving ass, you can get a job with the RNC.

The picture is a child of Qana.

I hope you don't take this letter as a personal attack.
It wasn't meant that way.

The fact that you had to worsen my position down to "Tough luck,"

Lieberman loss could be hueueueueuege
 America's history could change if an upset happens

 truthout.org

 Excerpt:
The passion and energy fueling the antiwar challenge to Joe Kissyface could signal a power shift 
inside the Democratic Party that could reshape the politics of national security and dramatically 
alter the battle for the party's 2008 presidential nomination, according to strategists in both political parties.

I agree 100 percent.
 

A victory Lamont on Tuesday would confirm the growing strength of the grass-roots and Internet activists 
who first emerged in Howard Dean's presidential campaign. Driven by intense anger at Bush and fierce 
opposition to the Iraq war, they are on the brink of claiming their most significant political triumph, 
one that will reverberate far beyond the borders here if Lieberman loses.

Once again, exactly right.
 

An upset by Lamont would affect her, who like Lieberman supported giving Bush authority to wage 
the Iraq war, and could excite interest in a comeback by rightful-president Al Gore, who warned in 2002 
that the war could be a grave strategic error. For at least the next year, any Democrat hoping to play on 
the 2008 stage would need to reckon with the implications of Lieberman's repudiation.

Exact-a-mundo, and bet that she, unlike Bush, has an exit strategery already in place.
 

Even Kissyface backers are now expecting this scenario. 
Two public polls in the past three days show Lamont with a lead of at least 10 percentage points. 

Bye, Joe.
You can retire with Bush's love, and turn full-out Republican.

Also, if Kissyface somehow wins this primary, wouldn't that be the end of Diebold 
and no-paper-trail electronic voting?  If Kissyface's own people expect him to lose by 
10 or more points, how can the BFEE engineer an electronic upset for him?

If Lamont wins, it's immediate problems for Bush and the war-loving GOP bastards.

It would also embolden pink-tutu, bean-eating, nancyboy, surrender-monkey Democrats 
to finally stand the F up and tell Bush and Rove that they're thru being their bitches.

Wouldn't that be great to see?

And it all happens TUESDAY night.

Let's get ready to rumble.

Bart, your logic on the Lebanese civilians is totally skewed.

Moving away from danger is skewed thinking?
 

So, if a belligerent regional power says
"Hey, we're gonna destroy the area around your home, and maybe most of the
infrastructure in your country.", then it's the fault of the civilians when they die
because they didn't flee far and fast enough?  OK.

Why did you ask ME the question if you were going to supply my answer?

If a woman is told a rapist just escaped prison and he's in her area,
*I* think it's a bad idea for her to sunbathe topless in the front yard.
Or will you argue she has earned the right to sunbathe nude?.
 

I think your opinion on this matter came about after a bottle of Chinaco

Had Hezbollah not come across the border and kill/kidnap Israelis, 
the rest of Lebanon -- that Israel was playing mighty nice with
-- wouldn't be under a constant blitz.

Israel respected Lebanon's right to exist. 
It was Lebanon, i.e. Hezbollah, that doesn't respect Israel's right to exist.

Israel says Qana fired rockets, so they took out the launcher.
Others say there were no rockets fired from there.

Who knows the truth?

Israel says their border soldiers were kidnapped.
Anti-Israelis say they were caught on the Lebanon side - fair game.

Who knows the truth?

Every letter I get is from someone certain they have a monopoly on the truth.
They are so convinced, so adamant that their version is the correct one.
Anyone who disagree is not mistaken, no - we can't have that.
They are "criminals" who "enjoy murdering the little children."

Robert Fisk is biased against Israel, Christiane Amanpour is biased for Isdrael.
Both sides in this fight cite them as experts who wouldn't distort the facts.

Who knows the truth?

Dan writes and says, "Having factx helps," as if *I* have been lying.
People need to learn that sending me some link is NOT proof that they're right.

There are no facts coming from this war.
It's all spin.

Do you see why it's a mistake to even try to get into this?
Even if we could get hard facts, people aren't going to change their minds.

Moral of the story?
Religion kills.
Faith in the never-existed ghosts kills your kids.

The Agony of New Orleans
 Watch for it on HBO this month

  Link

Excerpt:
When Spike Lee saw the first images of floating bodies and of desperate people, mostly black,
stranded on rooftops, he quickly realized he was witnessing a major historical moment. As those
moments kept coming, he spent almost a year capturing the hurricane's sorrowful consequences
for a four-hour documentary, "When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts," to be
shown on HBO this month...Mr. Lee's reputation helped get his camera crew into the city's
water-soaked homes, he said. It allowed him to stretch out a complex story, with themes of race,
class and politics that, he said, have too often been sensationalized or rendered in sound bites.
He received permission, for example, from Kimberly Polk to film the funeral of her 5-year-old
daughter, Sarena Polk, swept away when the waters ravaged the Lower Ninth Ward.
"She came to me in a dream," Ms. Polk says in the film. "She said, 'Mama, I'm falling.'

Did Clinton Kill Lieberman?

 dailykos.com

 Excerpt:
Clinton's Lieberman visit was widely viewed as the watershed event in that senate race. 
The support of Bill, who still commands the loyalty and admiration of millions of Americans, 
it was thought,  (?) would give Lieberman the jolt he needed to pull away from Ned Lamont.

Yet the latest poll, taken after Clinton, shows Lieberman falling far behind. 
If Lamont wins, will mention Clinton's failure to change the electoral dynamic.

I'm not convinced those articles will be accurate. 
I think it's entirely possible that Bill Clinton did make a difference in the race. 
In favor of Ned Lamont.
 

I didn't read any further, this may've been a slam against our best president ever.
But I know Bill's sharp enough to serve his ice-cold revenge while making Kissyface smile.
