"There was not one bit of argument. He didn't
come back at us on anything."
-- Baker member Lawrence Eagleburger, on Dubya's demeanor when he met with
the ISG, Link
Well of course he didn't "come back
with anything." He doesn't have a brain.
He's got to ask people on his staff what
you said and then ask them what he thinks about it.
He can't engage in adult conversation about
anything that counts - you don't know that?
If you ask him a baseball question, he
might
have a prepared answer,
but this Monkey can't think and how can
you be oblivious to that after all these years?

Gary Webb's
Death: American Tragedy
by Robert Parry
Excerpt:
Two years ago, journalist Gary Webb - his career
and his life in ruins - killed himself.
Though a terrible personal tragedy, Webb's suicide
also marked the last page of a dark chapter
in American journalism, the end result of his
punishment at the hands of colleagues for helping
expose the Reagan administration's contra-cocaine
scandal. The major U.S. news media revealed
itself more as an accomplice to government crimes
than a watchdog for the people -- a precursor
to the failure to challenge George W. Bush's
false case for invading Iraq.

GOP senator: War crimes?
Excerpt:
Oregon Sen. Gordon Smith, a Republican who voted
for Bush's bloody quagmire,
now says the current U.S. war effort is "absurd"
and "may even be criminal."
Thursday night, Smith called for changes in U.S.
policy that could include rapid pullouts of troops.
He said he never would have voted for the conflict
if he had known the intelligence that Bush
gave the American people was inaccurate.
"I can't support a policy that has our soldiers
patrolling the same streets in the same way, being
blown up by the same bombs day after day," Smith
said. "That is absurd. It may even be criminal.
I cannot support that anymore. ... So either
we clear and hold and build, or let's go home."
It's about time the GOP realized that Bush is
poison.
Alligning with Bush will kill your career, so
they might as well tell the truth.

Panel: Hastert
is a Pervert
Can he hold on to his lesser job?
Excerpt:
Republicans failed for a decade to protect male
pages from sexual come-ons by Mark Foley (R-Guilty)
- once described as a "ticking time bomb" - but
they broke no rules and should not be punished,
concluded the partisan, Republican-controlled
House ethics committee in an outrageous cover-up.
The committee harshly criticized The Sweaty Wrestler
(R-Boy Toucher), saying the evidence proved
he lied about when he first heard of the problem.
It rejected Hastert's contention that he couldn't recall
separate warnings from two House Republican leaders.
Since he is a Republican, the Republicans
decided bioy-touching was OK as long as all involved
were Republicans.
Hastert said he was pleased the committee found
"there was no violation of any House rules,"
and that it was great to live in a country where
boy-touching was legal.
These Fascists decided to give themselves a pass on boy-touching.
The voters punsihed them some, but they need to be punished again.
And again.

Baker: Stay
Half the Course
by Greg Palast
Excerpt:
They're kidding, right?
Baker's Two Big Ideas are:
1. Stay half the course. Keeping 140,000 troops
in Iraq is a disaster getting more disastrous.
The Baker Boys' idea: cut the disaster in half
- leave 70,000 troops there.
But here's where dumb gets dumber: the Bakerites
want to "embed" US forces in Iraqi Army units.
Question one, Mr. Baker: What Iraqi Army? This
so-called "army" is a rough confederation of Shia
death squads. We can tell our troops to get "embedded"
with them, but they won't get much sleep.
2. "Engage" Iran. This is a good one.
How can we get engaged when Bush hasn't even
asked them out for a date?
What will induce the shy mullahs of Iran to accept
our engagement proposal?
Answer: The Bomb.

Boys will
be boys
by Gene Lyons
Excerpt:
Looking back, it's amazing to contemplate the
sheer unreality of the political discussion leading up to
America's first "pre-emptive" war. The Post's
Walter Pincus, whose excellent reporting casting doubt
upon Iraq's imaginary WMDs got buried on Page
A 23 back then, recently wrote an interesting piece
looking at what some of the 126 House Democrats
who voted against Bush's war were saying at the time.
None of these misgivings, Pincus noted, was reported
in The Washington Post. The White House ignored them.
Meanwhile, Chris Matthews lionized Bush as
"our young warrior king." Newsweek's Howard Fineman
discerned in him "a model of unblinking,
eyes-on-the-prize decisiveness."
They're not talking that way now.
The White House and their talk radio Nazis always
whine about the press being against them,
but the truth is no recent president has gotten
the six-year honeymoon that this bastard has enjoyed.
That's why we went to war - because the press idolized Der Fuhrer.
Everything he said, they assured us, was intelligent, on-target
and true.
In most other professions, Matthews and Fineman would be laughed out
of their jobs.
But everyone knows the whore press's job is to lie about the greatness
of Bush and
the Republicans while lying about the Democrats and their motives.
I haven't said it in a while - fuck the press.

not to must have

"Has the President so failed in his duties
to the nation that he should leave office?
The answer to that question is yes,
and the time for the President to leave is not after
months of continued national embarrassment
but now. Clinton should resign."
-- USA Today editorial, Sept. 15, 1998,
Link
The whore newspapers that were super-eager to
call for Clinton to step down because he had
a girlfriend remain supportive of the bastard
who killed 3000 soldiers - because they are whores.
Again and again, America's whore press tells us
that getting a blow job
is worse than lying 3,000 soldiers into their
graves for no damn reason..
Where is the logic?
Where is the sanity?
In a sane world, it wouldn't matter if Clinton
was banging three interns at once,
as long as those 3,000 soldiers got to have Christmas
dinner with their families,
But America is so hung up on sex - we must blame
religion for that.
"Today, America is saddled with an unbelievably
corrupt occupant in the White House.
Bush is guilty of a long list of serious crimes,
from torture to lying America into a war.
And what's the U.S. media's reaction to all
this?
Silence.
Not one major newspaper has called for Bush
to resign."
...and that's why they're known world-wide as "America's whore press."

Subject: What is victory?
I have yet to see a concrete definition of what
"Victory" in Iraq is.
Its like running a race not knowing where the
finish line is.
That's how the Bush boys win races.
If they ever get ahead, they say, "There's
the finish line" and declare victory.
They've never won anything without cheating.
Bushboy throws "victory" around all the time,
but what he needs to do is say
"This is what victory is....." then "This is
how we get there..."
Any idiot can just use buzzwords all day long
without actually defining anything.
crazymike
Crazy Mike, he sorta covered that is his weasel-like way.
He says "Victory is when Iraq can defend itself
and sustain itself,"
which leads one to ask, "So what does that mean?"
He can't put a real defnition - such as, "When
car bombings get down to 25 per day,"
because that's not going to happen. With his weasel-words, he can proclaim
that Iraq
can not "sustain and defend itself" and slither away like a Neo-Con
cock roach.

Benny the Rat excommunicates Nebraska
Excerpt:
A Vatican official has upheld the 1996 mass excommunication
of perhaps hundreds of people
in Lincoln, NB affiliated with 11 organizations
the diocese considers anti-Catholic.
In 1996, Bruskewitz ruled that membership in Call
To Action and 10 other organizations was
"perilous and incompatible to the Catholic faith."
The groups include Planned Parenthood and
Catholics for a Free Choice, the Hemlock Society
and several Masonic organizations.
No other U.S. bishops have issued similar excommunication
orders.
Sheer f-ing lunacy.
If you live in Chicago, you can still go to their fictional Heaven.
If you live in Tulsa, you can still go to their fictional Heaven.
If you live in Hong Kong, you can still go to their fictional Heaven.
But if you have the bad luck to be stuck in Lincoln, Nebraska
where quick-draw Bruskewitz runs the local dog-and-pony
charade,
you're going to burn in Hell for all eternity.
No wonder the world thinks Catholics are crazy.
Hey, Benny the Rat, why not just excommunicate all Democrats?
You know you want to - so why don't you?
Do you need that Democrat money so bad that you let "baby killers"
contribute?
How can anybody who appreciates logic fall for this mess?

They told
you so
by Paul Krugman
Excerpt:
Shortly after Baghdad fell, The Weekly Whore
Standard published a jeering article titled,
"The Cassandra Chronicles: The stupidity of the
antiwar doomsayers." Among those the article mocked
was James Webb, now the senator-elect from Virginia.
The article's title was revealing. People forget the
nature of Cassandra's curse: although nobody
would believe her, all her prophecies came true. And so it was
with those who warned against invading Iraq.
At best, they were ignored. A recent article in The WaHoPo
ruefully conceded that the paper's account of
the war debate in the House - a resolution opposed by a
majority of the Democrats - gave no coverage
at all to those antiwar arguments that now seem prescient.
The American Whore Press has no accountability.
They're always on the wrong side of everything and they never have
to pay for their mistakes.
They lie with every f-ing sentence they publish.
They trivialize real crimes while elevating ant hills into mountains.
...and they're getting worse.

Twilight
Zone Monkey
by Jonathan Chait
Excerpt:
There is a famous "Twilight Zone" episode about
a little boy who has fantastical powers. Through the misuse
of his powers, the little boy has ruined the
lives of everybody in the town. For instance, teleporting them into
a cornfield, or summoning a snowstorm that destroys
their crops. Because anyone who thinks an unhappy
thought will be banished, the adults around him
can do nothing but cheerfully praise his decisions while they
try to nudge him in a less destructive direction.
This episode kept popping into my head when I was reading
about Bush and the Baker commission.
As president, Bush has enormous power, but he is treated by
everybody around him as if he were a child.
That's so perfect, I'm going to toast Jonathan Chait with a shot of Chinaco Anejo.

By leaving Iraq Bush would have to admit that

Bartcop Presents Wednesday night Poker
When the GOP Fascist (I repeat myself) thugs tried to outlaw poker,
they forced me to move from my comfortable PartyPoker.com to
FullTiltPoker.com
I hate change, mostly because I live a great life, so change
is always my enemy.
But the thugs made me move to FullTilt and I'm glad I did.
At FullTult you plan play real money tournaments for just $2.25
or so.
You talk about a friendly game.
The winner gets $18
or so and the most you can lose in a tourney is $2.25.
Even if you're the stupidest, most aggressive and unluckiest bastard
in America,
(George Bush, call your office) you still can only lose about $10
an hour.
So the thugs accidentally backed in to making Poker more accessible to more Americans.
Thanks, stupid thugs!

F-ing madness
In the Baker Report, they studied one day in Iraq, I think it was Sept
1, 2006.
The thug-led American government said there were 93 acts of violence
that day in Iraq.
The Baker Report said they were lying bastards - that there were 1,100 acts of violence that day.
Point One:
Those Bush bastards are lying, murdering thieves.
Point Two:
There were 1,100 acts of violence that day.
Think about that.
