Why Iran
Won in Iraq
by Morgan Strong
Excerpt:
There are two fundamental truths about the war
in Iraq. The first is that the administration did not tell
the American people the true reasons for this
war. Whether it was through deliberate lies or by false
intelligence, the consequence is equal. The second
is that the democratic election that took place in
Iraq in 2005 was a victory for the majority Shiite,
and for their sponsors, Iran.
The administration insisted on early elections
to demonstrate the Iraqi populace was prepared and
eager for democratic governance. The election
may have been free and democratic, but the results
of the elections established the contrary.
Iran through its surrogate Muqtada al-Sadr and
his Mahdi army provided money and influence,
and if necessary coercion, to assure the election
of their chosen candidates. Those Shiite candidates
won majority control of the Iraqi government.

"Displaced families are returning home, marketplaces
are seeing more activity,
stores that were long shuttered are
now reopening. We feel safer about moving
in the city now. Our people want to
see this effort succeed."
-- Der Monkey, quoting an Iraqi blogger, Link
"Let me clear it up for any moron with lingering
doubts: It's worse. It's over. You lost.
You lost the day your tanks rolled
into Baghdad to the cheers of your imported,
American-trained monkeys. You lost
every single family whose home your soldiers violated.
You lost every sane, red-blooded Iraqi
when the Abu Ghraib pictures came out and verified
your atrocities behind prison walls
as well as the ones we see in our streets. You lost when you
brought murderers, looters, gangsters
and militia heads to power and hailed them as Iraq's first
democratic government. You lost when
a gruesome execution was dubbed your biggest
accomplishment. You lost the respect
and reputation you once had. You lost more than 3000 troops.
That is what you lost America. I hope
the oil, at least, made it worthwhile."

(Lack of) Meters = Billions In Stolen Oil
Excerpt:
Millions of dollars' worth of oil is stolen daily
in Iraq because of the absence of oil meters, a basic tool
for preventing corruption, according to estimates
by classified CIA and State Department reports,
the Iraq Study Group Report and others.
So - the
Iraq Study Group mentioned this in their
report
and America's whore media kept it quiet
so Bush
could continue to steal these billions?
A six-month investigation by KTVT found the annual
thefts run into the billions of dollars and help fuel insurgents,
sectarian militias and corrupt
officials - as well as deprive
the Iraqis of much-needed money.
As far as
I know, I'm the only person on the Internet who's been
railing
about this for years. THIS is why Bush invaded Iraq and
got 3300
soldiers killed but nobody wants to talk about the real
reasons
we're at war.

Inhofe Kills
Gore Concert
He did it by speaking a few words.
Excerpt:
Sen. James Inhofe (R-SickBastard) is vowing to
kill Gore's global warming concert.
Inhofe hates environmentalists and his parliamentary
powers can block indefinitely
the resolution that would permit Gore to have
his concert on the capitol's West Front lawn.
"This is a partisan political event," Inhofe barked
yesterday. Harry Reid (D-Limp) attempted to pass
the authorizing measure for the concert, but
Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) objected.
Inhofe barked like a rabid dog, :There's no compromise.
Either we change the rules or we don't."
For years, we had to put up with"But
we're powerless - we're the minority" from
Democrats.
But now that the GOP is in the Minority, they're
showing how powerful they really are.
Does this mean that the Democrats - all these
years - only had to use "parliamentary powers"
to block everything the Fascist bastards were
doing? If so, why didn't they f-ing do it?
In the Minority, we're subject to every whim the insane GOP members
have.
In the Majority, we're subject to every whim the insane GOP members
have.
So why do Democrats ask us for money?

Ted Haggard - Gay in Tulsa
Excerpt:
A trip to Tulsa lays bare the fundamentalism
that made Ted Haggard live in terror of his own homosexuality.
According to Bishop Carlton Pearson, Ted Haggard
isn't going to hell. He's already in hell.
Haggard's father, said Pearson, was an intimidating
400-pound Pentecostal preacher who cast out devils.
If he had known his son was gay, Pearson maintains,
he "would've cast the devil out of him. ... And Ted would
have spit and rolled and frothed. And he might
have gyrated. Usually they vomit or they scream, or something
like that." Haggard came to ORU "scarred somewhat
by his encounters with his father."
Homosexuality, of course, was not tolerated at
ORU. Pearson sang with Roberts' traveling musical group,
the World Action Singers, from which Roberts
expelled two members because they were gay. Roberts' oldest son,
Ronald, committed suicide in 1982 at the age
of 37. Pearson says that Ronald, too, was gay.
According to "God's messengers," all gay people should kill themselves.
But what's wrong with God that he makes every tenth person gay?

I work as an engineer in the auto industry (I
do NOT work for an automaker).
My customers include many carmakers, including
the US 'Big 3'.
I can assure you that your fear of American cars
is misplaced.
Dude, I hope we can remain friends if I disagree.
The media seems to have effectively spun the story
that Asian cars are better than American cars.
Hogwash.
Actually, no.
Opinions count but money follows the cars from
Japan.
It seems that anytime there is a vehicle recall
at GM, it is spread across the front page
of the newspaper, but Toyota recalls get a mention
in fine print on page 7.
I have known several people with Toyotas who
had multiple problems, but still sent back positive
surveys, because they told me the problems were
'isolated', and the dealers were 'nice'.
Seriously, one has to follow the money.
From my 6 years buying car finance contracts
and three years on an actual car lot,
I guarantee most used car dealers would rather
buy a 2002 Honda than a 2004 Chevy.
<snippage>
I think your perception is misguided.
It looks to me like the media are as lazy in
their auto stories as they are in their political stories.
Hey, no argument there - the media are
lazy whore sell-my-mother bastards,
but if money talks, the smart move
always gravitates towards Honda and Toyota.
If you visit an auto auction in a large city,
you'll see what I mean.

I have a one-way Southwest Airlines ticket for
sale.
I may have a pair of tickets to sell very
soon, but right now I have just the one.
If you're near a SW city and suddenly
have to visit another SW city,
then we can make a deal that will be advantageous
for both of us.
Here's how this would work out great for me and
for you.
Say you're in Indianapolis and you suddenly have
to go to LA.
If you have weeks or months of flexibility, no
problemo.
You can fly from Indy to LA for a mere $178
if
time is on your side.
Butt, if you have to fly from Indy to LA
tomorrow,
the cost is $678
My good Catholic math tells me that a $500
difference, and that's where BTA
comes in.
If YOU suddenly find yourself in need of a flight
to a SW city,
you could own my ticket for, say, $300
and save $200
and you'd be contributing to the Bartcop Fund.
Seriously, mark Volume 1952 as the issue with
the $200
travel coupon in it.
Odds are you won't need it, and
the coupon is good for more than Indy to LA.

Torture for no reason
Excerpt:
Tony Lagouranis is a 37-year-old bouncer at a
bar in Chicago's Humboldt Park. He is also a former torturer.
As a specialist in a military intelligence battalion,
Lagouranis interrogated prisoners at Abu Ghraib,
Al Asad Airfield and other places in Iraq from
January through December 2004.
Coercive techniques, including the use of dogs,
waterboarding and prolonged stress positions were employed
on the detainees, he says. Prisoners held at
Al Asad Airfield, about 110 miles northwest of Baghdad, were
shackled and hung from an upright bed frame welded
to the wall in a room in an airplane hanger, he told me.

What to
do about Iran?
by Ivan Eland
Excerpt:
Iran should be given positive incentives to forgo
its nuclear weapons program. If the Iranians forswear
their uranium enrichment efforts, the United
States should offer to reintegrate Iran into the world,
economically and politically, and sign a pact
pledging not to attack that nation.
Given that Iran lives in the vicinity of a nuclear
Israel, and has other potentially hostile neighbors,
even this offer may not make the Iranians willing
to give up their nuclear program.
As the US accepted and deterred a nuclear China
in the 1960s, when radical Mao Zedong was at its helm,
it may ultimately have to accept and deter, with
the world's most potent nuclear arsenal, a nuclear Iran.

Take the Fifth
How can she keep her job is she's guilty of crimes?
Excerpt:
The strangest event so far in the U.S. attorney-firing
mess may be the decision by a Justice Department
lawyer to plead the Fifth rather than risk incriminating
herself in testimony before Congress Thursday.
Monica Goodling, counsel to Alberto Gonzales
and liaison to the White House, cited the politically charged
and "perilous environment" of the House and Senate
judiciary committees in refusing Monday to testify about
her part in the firing of eight U.S. attorneys.
In a letter to the Senate committee, her lawyer says the "potential
for legal jeopardy" from "even her most truthful
and accurate testimony" is "very real," and cites the recent
conviction of I. Lewis Libby for lying during
a CIA-leak investigation. To use a technical legal term, huh?

Confession:
Last Saturday, I committed at least two sins.
I drank cheap vodka and I played online poker.
(Let's hope Tim doesn't hear about this.)
I can't find my regular dollar-entry Hold'em tourneys at
Fulltilt.com
(If you know where they are - let me know)
so I signed up for a $2 tourney with 335 players.
It was Saturday, and I extra-enjoyed my after dinner cocktails,
and I was fighting 334 others for the title of Tournament X Champ
This Date.
I lasted the first hour.
I lasted the second hour.
At time marker 2:15, I started getting sleepy.
Out of 335 people, there were 35 left, and I was in fourth place, ...and
I was sleepy,
so I went all in on the next 5-6 hands until somebody beat me. I had
a great time.
I paid $2 and change to play, I played real poker with real people
for real money
and it cost less than a dollar an hour.
In this case I'd like the Republcans to remember we'd like a smaller
government.
When will the Democrats make poker legal again?
