Is Bush
a Clear & Present Danger?
by Robert Parry
consortiumnews.com
Excerpt:
Faced with George W. Bush's disastrous policies
in the Middle East and his adamant refusal
to change course, the question now arises whether
the President has become a "clear and present
danger" to the security of the United States
and, indirectly, to Israel.
For more than five years - even predating the
9/11 attacks - Bush has insisted on a "unilateralist"
approach toward the world, asserting U.S. global
hegemony under a strategy laid out by the
neoconservative Project for the New American
Century. In all of this, there was little room for
compromise or negotiations with the "bad guys."
It was as if the macho rhetoric of AM radio
and Fox News had swallowed U.S. foreign policy.
Real men don't talk to people who stand
in America's way; you jail or kill them.

Involuntary
Marine Recall
Or, as some call it, "draft"
Link
Excerpt:
The U.S. Marine Corps said Tuesday it has been
authorized to recall thousands of Marines
to active duty, primarily because of a shortage
of volunteers for duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Up to 2,500 Marines will be brought back at any
one time, but there is no cap on the total number
of Marines who may be forced back into service
in the coming years as the military battles the war
on terror. The call-ups will begin in the next
several months.
Due to an outbreak of temporary sanity, this is
the first time the Marines have had to use the
involuntary recall since the early days of the
Iraq combat. The Army has ordered back about
14,000 soldiers since the start of the war.

Subject: What the Election is
Really About
This election in 2006 is about denial. Are we
as a nation going to face the reality that
America is heading in the wrong direction or
are we going to lie to ourselves for 2 more
years and pretend that everything is just fine?
If we are going to survive we are going to
have to accept that America needs a new direction.
However - I'm still waiting for the
Democrats to state what they have to offer. I
want to hear a message of change.
I just can't stand the lying anymore.
We are in really bad shape and we can't pretend
that it's all going to just go away.
I'm looking for real courage and I'm not seeing
it. If America turns it's back on reality
then reality might turn it's back on America.
And that's a scary thought.

Murtha's
popularity booming
Link
Excerpt:
Everything I said has turned out to be true,"
Murtha said Wednesday. "You can't win militarily.
Military leaders are now saying it publicly where
they said it only privately before. The public is
looking for a solution to this open-ended policy,
which is killing kids."...On Aug. 9, Murtha appeared
at a rally for Eric Massa, a retired Navy commander
who's trying to unseat Rep. Randy Kuhl.
Massa said Murtha 'couldn't speak, the applause
and the standing ovation was so prolonged
and intense. He speaks the truth. He's not deterred
by critics. As the failures of Bush in Iraq
have become more obvious, his credibility has
significantly increased."

Excerpt:
John Karr's mother, Patricia Elaine Adcock "made
a big round donut of kindling and put him
in the middle of it," said George McCrary, 76.
"She just boxed the little baby in and tried to
light it," McCrary said. John's older brother Michael
"came running in just before she got the flame
to the flammable material," McCrary added.
McCrary said that Adcock was later committed
to a mental institution and is now deceased.

Subject: Brit Airline Plot a
FAKE?
Bart, I saw this on Citizens for Legitimate
Government Link
TATP or Not TATP? - That is the Question
'According to the official government story, TATP
(triacetone triperoxide) was the explosive
these conspirators were planning to manufacture
aboard the airliners... The peroxide and acetone
can be pre-mixed, but the acid must be added,
a drop at a time, while continuously stirring it and
keeping it continuously chilled. This step of
the process will take several hours, during which the
fumes given off will be substantial and quite
overpowering, thus a lab-quality air evacuation system
is required... One then must let the resulting
solution stand for an extended period at temperatures
above the freezing point, but definitely below
50 degrees Fahrenheit... The time required for
completion is at least 24 hours and often several
days... There is neither the time, the workspace
nor the other materials required to make TATP
on an airliner. The time required, the temperatures
required, the workspace required and the
need to dry the chemical prior to use preclude this
story being reasonable...'"
We might see this in the New York Whore Times or the WaHoPo
if
we had a free press in this once-great country.

Subject: Hezbolah
Bart, excuse me, but wasn't it the Hezbolah that
started this little "war" in the first place?
And if the civilians that were "hiding" the Hezbolah
weapons in the first place got hurt,
then why is everyone saying"poor mistreated people"?
It was their own fault for helping and hiding
the weapons.
The Israelis were just defending themselves.

Der Monkey's
sinking poll numbers
Link
Excerpt:
Bush's job approval rating dipped two points
in the last three weeks, a new Zogby poll shows.
The numbers continue to reflect erosion in the
President's political base - just 62% of Republicans
give him positive marks for his job performance,
while 38% give him negative marks. Even among
WalMart shoppers, just 45% now give him positive
job marks.
More than three out of four WalMart shoppers voted
for Bush over Kerry in 2004.
It's crazy that the poorest people in America vote for tax cuts for
the super rich.
Could the Democrats be any more pitiful in the political game?
Democrats can't sell $10 bills for $5.

neal-4-cents.htm
Excerpt:
You say that because 29 Democratic Senators voted "yes" on the Iraq
Attack, it may not now
be doubted that the super-secret lies were "slam
dunk" convincing. You then assert that the
"no" voters, therefore, irresponsibly voted against
our national security by voting "no".
We're shooting in the dark because we don't know.
Hypothetically, if the evidence is 50/50, how
should a senator vote?
What if the evidence is 47 percent that Saddam
has
WMDs and can deliver
in 45 minutes and the evidence is 53 percent
that Saddam has no WMDs at all.
How should a responsible Democrat vote?

Subject: GOP goes pro-choice
Hey Christian Right, does it bother you that Bush
and Cheney and the GOP
are supporting a pro-choice candidate for the
senate in Connecticut?
You know all the killing in Bush's disaster of
a war in Iraq.
You know all his neglect of the poor dying citizens
of New Orleans.
You know all the unnecessary killing that he
encouraged and sponsored in Lebanon.
You know all the suffering people that he denied
stem cell research.
You know all the poor people that he denied an
increase in the minimum wage.
You know all the people that he tried to deny
Social Security protection.
You know all the prisoners (some of them innocent)
that he authorized to be tortured.
Geez, given all this Republican compassion, I
wonder what Jesus would think
about all these so called Christians who are
so hate filled?

Bush errors
boost Iran
Was that the plan all along?
Link
Excerpt:
The US-led "war on terror" has bolstered Iran's
power and influence in the Middle East,
especially over its neighbour and former enemy
Iraq, a thinktank said today.
A report published by Chatham House said the wars
in Iraq and Afghanistan had removed
Iran's main rival regimes in the region.
Israel's conflict with the Palestinians and its invasion
of Lebanon had also put Iran "in a position of
considerable strength" in the Middle East.
Bush puts Iran in the "avis of evil" then wipes out their rivals and
let's them have nukes.
Why is Bush pushing for the rapture so hard?

For the money. Why else?
After all, when the millions pour in, are they
really "losing"?
No, they're not. Just we are.
OK, assume for a moment that's true.
That makes the GOP the Globetrotters and the Dems the "Nationals."
Let's say the Globetrotters get paid triple what the "Nationals"
get so why would Kennedy, Kerry,
Edwards, Boxer, Feinstein and She settle for "loser's wages" instead
of "top wages?"
It makes no sense, especially when Democrats ARE the majority!
I hate to be this cynical, but why else would
they throw the fight?
And, it's obvious that that's exactly what they're
doing.

Opposition
to quagmire breaks 60%
A
third love this quagmire since Bush does
Link
Excerpt:
Opposition among Americans to the war in Iraq
has reached a new high, with only about
a third of respondents saying they favor it,
according to a poll released Monday.
Just 35 percent say they favor the war in Iraq;
61 percent say they oppose it -- the highest
opposition noted in any CNN poll since the conflict
began more than three years ago.
Despite the will of the people, Bush said we
will continue the killing as long as he is president.
"There is too much money to be made during a world
war - why would I turn that down?
One glance at the price of gasoline tells you
why I started this war, so the war goes on,"
the president said. "Leaving before oil hits
$100 would be a disaster," he said.

To quote John Prescott, Phil Donahue's show on
MSNBC was 'crap'.
Fine - but it was their highest rated show.
He was up against Mr. Bill, in the wrong type
of format and was failing miserably.
It was their highest rated show.
You must deal with that fact.
How can you say the network took him off the air
because he said "there was no reason to attack Iraq."
...because it's true?
Have you heard the guy they replaced him with?
Keith Olbermann. I'm sure you've heard of him.
Yes, I like Keith.
Why haven't they plucked him off the air?
Hell, based on your logic the network would execute
him for what he has said about Bush.

Dude, not sure why you and I are fighting.
The facts are the facts and neither of us can change the past.
Is your main point that there's one anti-Bush show on the American airwaves

Rescue Me
Unbelievable.
I can't believe regular TV can be this good.
I decided weeks ago that Rescue Me was
THE best show on TV,
and every episode since then has done nothing
but raise my opinion higher.
I'm saying it here, because if I said it on the

There were at least FIVE scenes from this one
episode that were TV Hall of Fame-worthy.
