Scooter
Libby's Time-Travel Trial
by Robert Parry
Excerpt:
The trial of Scooter Libby is being billed
by the Big Media as "Iit's not the crime but the coverup,"
a smugly delivered line suggesting that Libby
committed no real offense beyond trimming a few facts
when questioned by overzealous investigators.
But the major U.S. news media is again missing
the point. The real significance of the Libby trial is that
it could demonstrate how far Bush went in 2003
to shut down legitimate criticism of his Iraq War policies
as well as questions about his personal honesty.
In that sense, the trial could be a kind of time
machine for transporting America back to that earlier era
when Bush and his team felt they controlled reality
itself and were justified in tricking the American people
into bloody adventures overseas.
It was a time when Bush swaggered across
the political landscape, a modern-day king fawned over by
courtiers in the government and the press - and
protected
by those who bullied citizens who dared to dissent.

As Justice is closing in on his crooked
ass...
Bush hires
crony US Attorneys
He's firing the ones interested in justice
Excerpt:
Okay, so we already know that the White House
has now taken the unprecedented step of firing at least
four and likely seven US Attorneys in the middle
of their terms of office -- at least some of whom are in
the midst of corruption investigations of Bush
administration officials and key Republican lawmakers.
We also know that they're taking advantage of
a handy provision of the USA Patriot Act that allows
the White House to replace these fired USAs with
cronies
who don't need to be approved by the senate.
Given that these new USAs are being plopped into
offices currently investigating Republicans,
there's certainly ample opportunity for mischief.
So we're looking into just how the White House
is appointing.
The whore networks won't cover a serious story like this.
Did you see where America slipped from 24th to 53rd in rankings
of having a free press?
With a crooked president and journalists on the take, I'm surprised
we're still in the top 100.

Senators agree on Bush's quagmire
Excerpt:
A group of senators including Chuck Hagel announced
agreement Wednesday on a resolution opposing
Bush's 21,500 troop build up in Iraq, setting
their marker for a major clash between the White House and
Congress over the unpopular bloody quagmire.
The non-binding resolution, which was also gaining
interest from a second key Republican, would
symbolically put the Senate on record as saying
the U.S. commitment in Iraq "can only be sustained"
with popular support among the American public
and in Congress.
"I will do everything I can to stop Bush's
policy as he outlined it Wednesday night," said Hagel,
thought by many to be the last sane senate Republican.
"I think it is dangerously irresponsible."
War Resolution Exposes GOP Divide
Excerpt:
A resolution on Bush's bloody quagmire has attracted
the support of at least two Republicans
and threatens to expose fissures within the GOP
over the very unpopular war with voters.
Republicans are deeply divided on the war in Iraq
and how Congress should react to Bush's plan
to send 21,500 more troops into the meat grinder.
Ten Republicans met behind closed doors late Wednesday
with Mitch the Bitch McConnell in a bid to
generate consensus on Iraq. The senators emerged
from the meeting to announce that no deal had been reached.
"This is a very fluid situation," said Sen. Jon
Kyl, who was too scared to tell the truth.

Never ran again the rest of the day, and to my

Our whore media doesn't want us to know that our soldiers are dying
so the Iranian Shiia can be victorious in Iraq.
It's gotta have something to do with Bush wanting to steal Iran's oil,
too.
Too bad all those soldiers have to die to make our multi-billionaire
Dictator richer.

Bush's War with Bigger Tits
Excerpt:
Most shallow war-mongers would toss aside their
old war like you toss out thousands of men and women
who have died in a wrongheaded President's pursuit
of a disastrous foreign policy. I mean, what lame duck
President wouldn't rather have a trophy war to
show to all his rich neocon friends? But President Bush is far
more isn't your run of the mill Republican skirt
chaser. The man is loyal to his war. He doesn't leave a war
just because it's gotten a little crusty around
the edges or a few more hairs are showing on the upper lip.
No, this president has refused to leave his longtime
Iraqi war even though she now tends to put out a fetid
odor she once held back during their pre-war
courtingship. But since he does have the extra billions that
for some reason don't affect the Federal budget,
his thought is, why not spruce up the old battle and her ax?

Bush: No more domestic spying
Excerpt:
Der Little Dictator has decided not to renew
a program of domestic spying on Americans,
Tortureboy Gonzales said on Wednesday, ending
a tactic criticized for infringing on civil liberties.
The illegal program allowed Bush to eavesdrop
on phone calls and e-mails of political foes without
a warrant, even after saying, "In America, you
need a warrant before you eavesdrop oin people."
Tortureboy, still claiming the crimes were legal,
said the government will now have the ability
to act with sufficient "speed and agility."
What a pile of manure.
Bush has been spying on Americans because the
Democrats were too afraid to stop him.
Now that they have some clout, Bush is cutting
back on his crime spree.
There was never any valid reason to spy on people
without a warrant, because the judges
were green-lighting every request made, but Bush
didn't want records kept because he was
abusing his alleged "right to protect America."
And Tortureboy wants us to buy the excuse that,
with the Democrats in power, suddenly
the government will now have the ability to act
with sufficient "speed and agility?"
That's pure horseshit.
The big question is, will the Democrats punish
Bush for his crimes?
Or will they say, "That's
old news" like they did after the Iran-Contra
pardons?

In yesterday's posting you included a quote about

A better presentation would be showing its gains
since the Iraq invasion .
Here is one updated to include that:
United Technologies (UTX), up 11%; up

Northrop Grumman (NOC), up 12%;
57%
Raytheon (RTN) and Boeing Co. (BA) up

Haliburton is up 233%.
But just before the scandals hit, it was up 333%
By comparison, theDow Jones Index Fund is up 58%

Cheney snubbed peace offer
Excerpt:
Iran offered the US a package of concessions
in 2003, but it was rejected,
a senior former US official has told the BBC's
Newsnight programme.
Tehran proposed ending support for Lebanese and
Palestinian militant groups
and helping to stabilise Iraq following the US-led
invasion.
Offers, including making its nuclear programme
more transparent,
were conditional on the US ending hostility.
But Cheney rejected the plan, the official said.
The sons of bitches can't make any money with peace.
They can only make mega-millions during wars - so they start them.

Spocko, Glenn Beck, and ABC
Excerpt:
Bush's popularity has fallen to new lows, Democrats
have control of Congress, and a strong majority
opposes the illegal invasion and occupation of
Iraq, but ABC has decided that the time is right to give
America more conservative pundits and to attack
a liberal online critic who raised questions about the
network's policy of broadcasting hate radio.
Last week spotlighted ABC and its trend toward
irresponsible journalism, when it hired Glenn Beck
-- a chicken hawk and war cheerleader with a
talent for name-calling -- to comment on the day's events
for Good Morning America. ABC was also
dealing with the fallout of its wrongheaded decision to send
a cease-and-desist letter to a blogger named
Spocko. ABC claimed copyright infringement when Spocko
posted audio clips from ABC's KSFO radio in San
Francisco, where hosts have advocated violence
against progressives, Muslims, and Democratic
members of Congress.
While Spocko's reports are allowed under fair
use provisions of federal copyright law, ABC's concern
was that Spocko was informing advertisers about
KFSO's hate-filled commentary and blue-chip
advertisers were fleeing the station in disgust.
Glenn Beck is the vulgar Pigboy with less talent.
ABC, being a whore network, would hire Tokyo Rose if she could makle
them money.

Bush the crazed gambler
Excerpt:
It was axiomatic during the Cold War that presidents
should not gamble with matters of national security.
The stakes were too high. Bush's
Iraq policy has long suffered from a lack of that prudence -- and the
misplaced gambler's instinct is especially evident
in the administration's plan to send more troops to Baghdad.
Bush's 'surge' is a mistake because it is piling
more precious chips -- more human lives -- on what so far
has been a losing bet. The last election sent
a clear message that we want to take some of those chips off the table.

Subject: scrubbing the scum
Bart, I'm sorry but I have to agree that the Democrats
are either having trouble
seeing reality or see it and choose to do nothing.
It is as if they are placing doilys in Washington
instead of scrubbing the scum
that is the Bush Administration empowered by
the Republican led Congress.
The first order of their agenda should have been
to start impeachment hearings.
That is "off the table". Pelosi's biggest doily.
It is just going downhill from there.
Mike Mac
I don't think impeachment is off the table.
It would be a mistake to say, "We intend to impeach."
They did say, "We intend to hold hearings," and if those hearings present
evidence
that some bastards need to be impeached, I think impeachment is a "go"
at that point.

Dems not
allowed on Libby Jury
Justice is always fixed when you're rich
Excerpt:
Two potential jurors who were realists about
Bush were dismissed on the opening day
of the perjury trial of former White House aide
"Scooter" Libby.
The start of jury selection provided a potentially
crucial victory for Libby's defense lawyers.
They were allowed to ask potential jurors their
opinions about Bush and Cheney and whether
those bastards had lied to push the country into
war with Iraq so they could steal Iraq's oil.
One young woman swiftly sealed her own disposition
by saying she was "completely without
objectivity" and "there is nothing they could
do that would make me think positive about them."
Libby smiled and shot a glance at his wife as
his lawyer sent the woman home."

devastating. We lost our halo as the
