Quotes
"The lynching of Saddam has made the situation
there very clear. There is no government
in Iraq. There is only a very dangerous
collection of gangs and death squads running
rough-shod over the Iraqi people. Bush,
with his fantasy of a huge American escalation
to aid and abet these anti-Western
thugs, doesn't get this."

Bush's Rush
to Armageddon
by Robert Parry
Excerpt:
George W. Bush has purged senior military and
intelligence officials who were obstacles to a wider war
in the Middle East, broadening his options for
both escalating the conflict inside Iraq and expanding the
fighting to Iran and Syria with Israel's help.
On Jan. 4, Bush ousted the top two commanders
in the Middle East, Generals Abizaid and Casey,
who had opposed a military escalation in Iraq,
and removed Director of Intelligence John Negroponte,
who had stood by intelligence estimates downplaying
the near-term threat from Iran's nuclear program.
Most Washington observers have treated Bush's
shake-up as either routine or part of his desire for a
new team to handle his planned "surge" of U.S.
troops in Iraq. But intelligence sources say the personnel
changes also fit with a scenario for attacking
Iran's nuclear facilities and seeking violent regime change in Syria.
Isn't anybody going to try to stop this madman?
He's backing us into a nuclear corner and
he's clearly insane.
Senior Republicans need to pay a visit to
the White House.

Quotes
"Colin Powell is caustic in private about Bush's
proposed ''surge." Powell noted that
McCain just heard from combat officers
that they wanted more troops. Said Powell,
'The colonels will always say they need
more troops. That's why we have generals.'''
-- Robert Novakula, Prince of Darkness, Link
I hope Powell isn't suggesting that the colonels and generals speak
up and tell Bush the truth,
because when Powell had the chance to do that and save thousands
of American military lives,
he chose to be Bush's bitch, so he lied to the Little Dictator and
told him what he wanted to hear.
Colin Powell has thousands of dead soldiers on his bloody hands.

Shias hanged in revenge for Saddam
Excerpt:
Saddam's execution has inspired a gruesome cycle
of revenge, with scores of Shia Muslims
found hanged from lampposts in Baghdad.
The residents of the city's Haifa Street will
long remember the events of Sunday morning.
As shop owners raised their shutters and stall
holders set out their stock, three minibuses roared to a halt.
Gunmen jumped out and pulled blindfolded prisoners
on to the street. Ropes were tied to lampposts
and electricity poles. Those hostages who resisted
were shot. Others who were still alive had nooses
tied around their necks and were then suspended
in mid air to choke to death.
All were left hanging, and the victims received
little sympathy from those who witnessed the events.
That's Bush's gift to the people of Iraq.
This is democracy, Texas-style.
By the way, how much more oil does Iraq have for Bush to steal?
When they run out, Bush will leave, so when is that?

Did McCain leak on Rudy?
Excerpt:
Publication of Rudy's secret campaign plan has
so embarrassed Florida's new Gov. Crist that
McCain supporters fear it might backfire against
their campaign for the presidential nomination.
The 140-page dossier was found on a Crist aircraft
during his campaign for governor when Rudy
was in Florida to support his gubernatorial bid.
With an early 2007 test scheduled for Florida,
Crist's support could be critical. McCain has
been considered the early favorite to win his backing.
Some McCain supporters fear Crist might be offended
by the efforts of John Weaver,
McCain's political adviser, to take advantage
of the misplaced Giuliani document.
''I thought it was a security company,'' Weaver
said of Giuliani's consulting company.
His comments prompted speculation that Weaver
was responsible for making the dossier public.
I'd enjoy a dirty GOP primary - wouldn't that be fun?

Best Bush Moments of 2006 [VIDEO]
The Pelosi Peril
Excerpt:
New House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who seems to
be calling the Democratic policy shots on Iraq,
is threatening to abort President Bush's new
plan for Iraq - to be announced tomorrow night - by
cutting congressional funding...Is history to
repeat on the Democrats' watch? And how typical of
the party to threaten to cut the legs out from
under the U.S. military effort. It's what it did in Vietnam
more than 30 years ago..."
I support stopping the war, but Pelosi needs to handle this funds-cutoff
just right.
The BFEE and their whore media will run stories of the soldiers needing
food and
medicine - but they were cutoff by the evil Pelosi woman.
I wish she'd take my advice and call for the people to pour into the
streets to protest
this war, which would give her the political cover to do what she might
have to do.

New Saddam Video
Excerpt:
The second clandestine video from Saddam's execution
appeared on the Internet Tuesday,
showing the deposed Iraqi leader's dead ass,
with a gaping neck wound, after his hanging.
The footage pans up Saddam's shrouded body. It
apparently was taken shortly after Saddam
was executed and placed on a gurney. He was hanged
shortly before dawn on Dec. 30.
As the panning shot reaches the head region, the
white shroud is pulled back and reveals
Saddam's head and neck. The newest video leak
was likely to increase the angry reaction
over the way the execution was carried out.
Don't you think Chippy the Chimp would've handled this execution better?

O'Donnell more hated than Trump
Excerpt:
If it came down to a vote, Trump may have an
edge. In a USA TODAY/Gallup telephone poll,
Trump earned more favorable ratings than O'Donnell.
Among 1,004 people polled, 41% said
they had a favorable opinion of Trump. For O'Donnell,
28% had a favorable opinion.
Wow, she has a lower approval rating than the Giggling Murderer?
I've always said the Democrats need a mechanism

Subject: Catholic Priests Rape Young Girls Too
Dear Bart,
Being aware of the secrecy surrounding the abuse
of young girls in the church, I'm curious why the majority
of the stories involving the rapes done by these
pedophile priests only focuses on the young boys?
There are almost as many instances where the
rapes involve young girls. Yet, the media doesn't seem to
report about them as often. Is it only
deserving of outrage when it happens to young boys?
You'd think young girls being raped by priests
deserves equal time with the young boys,
whether it happened to only one girl or 500,
it's still just as abominable act and should not be ignored.
Kathleen W
Kathleen, I agree, but the press only reports the boy rapes.
If it doesn't hit the press, we don't know about it.

Strealing
Iraq's oil legally
by Chris Floyd
Excerpt:
Bush's new law will give Exxon Mobil, BP, Shell
and other Bush cronies unprecedented sweetheart deals,
allowing them to pump gargantuan profits from
Iraq's nominally state-owned oilfields for decades to come.
This law has been in the works since the very
beginning of the invasion - indeed, since months before the
invasion, when the Bush administration brought
in Phillip Carroll, former CEO of both Shell and Fluor,
the politically-wired oil servicing firm, to
devise "contingency plans" for divvying up Iraq's oil after the attack.
Once the deed was done, Carroll was made head
of the American "advisory committee" overseeing the
oil industry of the conquered land, as Joshua
Holland of Alternet.com has chronicled in two remarkable
reports on the backroom maneuvering over Iraq's
oil: "Bush's Petro-Cartel Almost Has Iraq's Oil and
"The US Takeover of Iraqi Oil."

Holding
Intelligence Liars Accountable
by Ray McGovern and W. Patrick Lang
Excerpt:
All those who helped George W. Bush launch a
war of aggression - termed by Nuremberg "the supreme
international crime"- have blood on their hands
and must be held accountable. This includes corrupt
intelligence officials. Otherwise, look
for them to perform the same service in facilitating war on Iran.
"They should have been shot," said former State
Department intelligence director, Carl Ford, referring to
ex-CIA director George Tenet and his deputy John
McLaughlin, for their "fundamentally dishonest"
cooking of intelligence to please the White House.
Ford was alluding to "intelligence" on the menacing
but non-existent mobile biological weapons laboratories
in Iraq.
