"Government can't put love in your heart. But
what we can do
is when you find love and find
the drive, we can help put it in action."
-- America's Mass Murderer,
talking about love, Link
Bush makes VT's Cho look like a beginner when
it comes to mass murder.
Over a year ago a study by Johns Hopkins University
said that Bush's greed
had likely killed 600,000 Iraqis, which Bush
dismissed as "a guess" and the
whore media backed him up 100 percent because
that's their job.
Meanwhile, the rest of the world gets uncensored news,
making America the most hated and feared country on Earth.
Bush's New
Clothes
by Inez Hollander, Ph.D.
Excerpt:
Seven years after my naturalization I still have
my U.S. passport but my love for this country has diminished a bit.
This is not so much because of Bush, the war
in Iraq or the fabrication of false intelligence, however disturbing.
It is what takes place in the cells at Guantanamo
Bay and God knows wherever else America's dirty war keeps
its terrorist suspects.
Amnesty International said: "Shaker Aamer, a UK
resident, has been held in Camp Echo continuously since
September 2005 and, aas of August 2006, had not
been outside for 64 consecutive days. He has reportedly
suffered beatings and harassment by guards."
Back in Java in 1943, the Japanese realized that
kicking and hitting with sticks was only marginally successful.
They would soon switch to electric shocks while
hanging victims by their arms for hours.
The few American "bad apples" at Abu Ghraib liked
to use electricity, too, and the hooded black scarecrow
figure with arms outstretched has haunted the
American public ever since the picture was released.
George
Bush's Amerikkka
Billions
in Stolen Oil
Are they really going to state the obvious?
Excerpt:
Between 100,000 and 300,000 barrels a day of
Iraq's declared oil production over the past four years
is unaccounted for and could have been siphoned
off through corruption or smuggling, according to a
draft American government report.
At $50 $65
a barrel, the discrepancy is $5 million to $15 million daily.
That's crazy math and I'll tell you why:
The only people who know how much oil is being
pumped are the people stealing it.
Whoever did this "audit" got their figures
from Bush's cronies.
...unless you think a team of auditors drove around Iraq in Jeeps taking measurements.
No, that didn't happen so all these numbers are "Bush supplied."
They're covering all bets and laying the groundwork for the future.
If they get caught "big time," they'll say, "Our
own audits showed some oil was missing
so there's no neeed to go over old ground
again. It was hectic - there was a war going on."
The findings are sure to reinforce longstanding
suspicions that smugglers,
insurgents and corrupt officials control significant
parts of the country's oil industry.
See?
The smugglers stole that crude oil, because they have smuggler
refineries, smuggler tankers
and smuggler pipelines, not to mention millions of smuggler gas stations.
The insurgents stole that crude oil, because they have insurgent
refineries, insurgent tankers
and insurgent pipelines, not to mention insurgent gas stations.
The corrupt Iraqi officials stole that crude oil, because they
have corrupt official refineries,
corrupt official tankers and corrupt official pipelines, not to mention
corrupt Iraqi gas stations.
So the BFEE starts out with, "There's no crime
here," and they're backup plan is,
"IF
there was a crime here, somebody other than the people with the refineries,
tankers, pipelines and millions of
gas stations must have stolen that crude oil."
These oil men, with unlimted money and power teamed up with Halliburton to legally rape Iraq.
First, Cheney illegally sold Saddam oil field equipment so he could
upgrade his pumping capacity.
Then they invaded and used the majority of troops to stand guard while
Halliburton built the new
pipeline to Kuwait. At the same time they installed state-of-the-art
oil pumps that run non-stop 24/7.
Remember in the early days - all the looting and ransacking?
Our soldiers were guaring the Ministry of Oil and Bush's precious new
pipeline.
Cheney stole 300,000 barrels a day?
Don't make me laugh.
Why invade an oil-rich nation if you're not going to aggressively
steal the oil?
One expert says they could be pumping 10M
barrels every day - that's $650M
per day.
Where is all that money going?
What are the official US Government figures on this 3500-dead-soldiers
question?
$650M per
day makes Exxon profits look tiny by comparison.

I have not less than one friend deploying this
year and several friends who have been deployed one or more times.
You've been sold an idea that is false.
Remember "We're
going there to stop the WMDs from hitting us?"
Remember "We're
going there to spread freedom?"
Turns out that was all bullshit - haven't you
heard?
Someone is stealing 200 million dollars a day in Iraq - who do you think they are?
My response to your site - you guys are disgusting, disrespectful people.
No, I'm a patriotic American who knows more about
this war than you do.
Bush's greed and idiocy has killed 3400 of your
brothers - that's OK with you?
There may be a few that have come home and are bitter,
There are tens of thousands of amputees
and brain-injured troops - you don't know that?
You make it sound like only "a few" have been
affected by this never-ending quagmire.
...but so long as we do have members of the armed forces out in Iraq, stop crying.
Ain't no crying here.
No one cares, stop posting that disrespectful crap on the internet.
No.
You should be thankful that a few of us are fighting
these monsters.
You realize the whole world hates us, right?
Do you realize Bush is the best recruiter Al
Qaeda has?
My fellow marines are fighting so that you can run your disgusting mouths.
No, your fellow Marines are dying to take
Halliburton stock from $4 to over $80, counting the stock split.
If you're going to risk your life, you really
should have a clue why.
Cheney
has 433,000 shares of Halliburton stock.
Multiply 433,000 by 20 and you'll see why they started this fake war.
As for your insults towards the Commander in Chief,
if the people of this country didn't think
he was doing his job WHY THE FUCK DID THEY RE-ELECT
HIM?
Two reasons:
Kerry ran the worst campaign in recent memory
and Ohio's Sec of State, Ken Blackwell,
was Bush's Ohio campaign chairman and he came
thru for Bush in 2004 the same way
Katherine Harris came thru in Florida in 2000.
That's my point - you have no idea what happened
then or now,
but I'll bet you hate Clinton because he had
sex.
He is the president, stop crying and get over
it, shut your mouth and move on.

Rove Suppressed
2004 Vote
That's a crime - but who cares?
Excerpt:
Only weeks before last year's pivotal midterm
elections, the White House urged the Justice Department
to pursue "voter-fraud" allegations against Democrats
in three battleground states, a high-ranking Justice
official has told congressional investigators.
In two instances in October 2006, Rove, or his
deputies passed the allegations on to Gonzales' then-chief of staff,
Kyle Sampson. These and similar allegations make
increasingly plain why Rove and the White House are going
to such tremendous lengths to block his testimony
under oath.

Poor, poor
Gonzales
Republicans, too dense to see the damage he's inflicting
express sympathy for the attorney general's ordeal.
by Joe Conason
Excerpt:
If the House Judiciary Committee session Thursday
starring Alberto Gonzales produced few revelations
about the suspicious dismissal of eight (or nine
or more) U.S. attorneys, the hearing did clarify a critical
political reality. No matter how discredited
he is -- and no matter how much damage he continues to
inflict on the Justice Department -- this attorney
general will not resign.
What the six-hour hearing established most clearly
is that most Republicans remain united behind Gonzales
despite the clear evidence of his incompetence,
dishonesty and contempt for Congress as an institution.
Unlike their counterparts in the Senate, none
of the Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee even
posed a sharp question to him, let alone urged
his resignation. Instead they acted in partisan lockstep,
expressing sympathy for the poor attorney general's
ordeal, pretending that there is no scandal and
no stonewall, and insisting that the investigation
should end.
Gonzales, like Katrina, is a great reminder how stupid and corrupt these
monkeys are.
Each month Gonzales hangs around probably gives the democrats two more
seats in the House.
Our next president if going to have a veto-proof majority in both houses.

Damn, I wish I could write good like that.
Subject: Cut & run, that's Tony Blair
I think the reason that Tony Blair is resigning
is that he can see that the Iraq war is about to melt down
and he wants to be out of there so that it doesn't
happen while he is in charge. If Bush wants the war to
not fail while he is president then maybe he
should do what Blair is doing - resign before Iraq melts down.

gas gouging
They're screwing the whole world
Excerpt:
Canadians are being gouged at the gas pumps,
paying in excess of 15 cents a litre more
for gasoline than justified by costs and historic
petroleum industry profit margins.
The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives says
it examined gasoline prices before and after Katrina
and found that the rules of the game for pricing
gasoline at the pump had changed overnight.
Mackenzie argues that events such as Katrina and
the recent disruptions at oil refineries may give
producers an excuse to raise prices, they cannot
justify the hefty increases on the basis of costs.
"The crude oil that ends up in our tanks today
doesn't cost one cent more to produce today
than it did in 2001 when the pump price was less
than 60 cents a litre," the report says.
So why don't the Democrats put some oil bastards under oath, subpoena
their books and
ask them why they should be allowed to gouge us to the tune of $75,000
profit per minute?
Clashing Quotes

there with them on that. Discussions like this are OK.
They're good to have. And that's why the president

he spoke to more than 1,500 people, hitting hard
on the war, health insurance and the president.
"The day that this president steps down, the entire world will breath a sigh of relief," he said, attacking Bush.
"After half a trillion dollars spent and
after 3,400 lives lost of our bravest young men and women, thousands more
wounded, legs severed, nerves shattered, it is
time for us to bring this war to a close, "This war is a bad idea,"
Obama said to a roar of applause.

Hillary has power because of her brains. A lot

Don't forget the jealousy factor.

Why I Hate
Blair's replacement
by Maureen Dowd, who hates everyone
Excerpt:
Growing fearful that he would inherit a bankrupt
franchise, Grumpy gave Blair a shove out of Downing Street.
Grumpy let Blair take the lead 13 years ago,
believing Tony would hand off power to him eventually. While Brown
felt intellectually superior, he knew his media
skills were wanting. They still are.
He got an uninspiring £100 haircut, which
was "lost on everyone," as one reporter dryly put it. Arriving for a photo-op
at a supporter's home, the door slammed and locked
on him, leaving him ringing the bell as cameras rolled. Once inside,
he tried to talk to a blond little girl, but
initially she froze him out. During his big speech, a teleprompter obscured
his face,
and he faded into a bland beige background.
Dowd doesn't know a thing about Britain's new Prime Minister, but it's
so easy for her to write about him
because she hates everyone. It doesn't matter if you've helped Bush
kill hundreds of thousands of people
or if you're a bit dry on live TV, she'll hate you with equal gusto
because whores like her are paid to hate.

Bush winks
at the Queen
Cowboy Monkey embarrasses America again
Excerpt:
Oh, he tried. He really did.
Bush managed to come off as a yokel during the
Queen's visit. He stumbled over dates in his speech,
adding two centuries to her age by indicating
that she'd visited the U.S. in 1776 rather than 1976.
And then he winked at her as though she were
a waitress at the IHOP, then he referred to her as his mother.
I'm not a fan of formality, except for when the
queen of England comes to visit. I mean ... damn.
Besides not being known for her sense of humor,
the queen is beloved by most of England,
a country that hangs on social rules and all
things uptight.
At least he didn't try to give the queen an unsolicited
rubdown, as he did with German Chancellor Merkel,
who violently shrugged Bush's hands off her shoulders
with an alarmed look on her face that said,
"Eww! He's touching me!" The German press called
the rebuff "Bush's Love Attack on Merkel!"
I wonder if Bush lifted his leg and farted for the Queen...

blocks MySpace, YouTube
Our soldiers can't handle the truth?
Excerpt:
Soldiers serving overseas will lose some of their
online links to friends and loved ones back home
under a cowardly Department of Defense policy
that takes effect today.
The Defense Department will begin blocking access
"worldwide" to YouTube, MySpace and 11 other
popular Web sites, according to a memo sent Friday
by Gen. B.B. Bell. The policy is being implemented
to protect information and reduce drag on the
department's networks, lied Bell.
"This recreational traffic impacts our official
DoD network and bandwidth ability, while posing a
significant operational security challenge,"
the bastard said with as straight face.
Odd how these soldiers are old enough to go to Iraq and die for Halliburton
profits,
but a little Freedom of the Press is too dangerous for them,
so they must be "protected"
like a twelve year old boy searching for pictures of Pamela Anderson.

The Gipper
is Dead
by Frank Rich
Excerpt:
At the GOP debate, the row of 10 middle-aged
white candidates, David Letterman said,
looked like "guys waiting to tee off at a restricted
country club." The candidates mentioned
Reagan's name 19 times, the current White House
occupant's once.
It could be argued that the Iraq fiasco masks
the magnitude of the destruction this presidency
has visited both on the country in general and
the G.O.P. in particular.
We have seen corruption, incompetence, and contracting
or cronyism scandals in these cabinet departments:
Defense, Education, Justice, Interior, Homeland
Security, Veterans Affairs, Health and Human Services,
and Housing and Urban Development. I am not counting
State, whose deputy secretary, a champion of
abstinence-based international AIDS funding,
resigned last month in a prostitution scandal, or the General
Services Administration, now being investigated
for possibly steering federal favors to Republican Congressional
candidates in 2006. Or the Office of Management
and Budget, whose chief procurement officer was sentenced
to prison in the Abramoff fallout. I will, however,
toss in a figure that reveals the sheer depth of the overall
malfeasance: no fewer than four inspectors general,
the official watchdogs charged with investigating
improprieties in each department, are themselves
under investigation simultaneously - an all-time record.
That's our Bush - setting records for incompetence and corruption
every day he's in office.

Oil Profits
- Why soldiers died
Can't get news like this from American whore press
Excerpt:
So was this what the Iraq war was fought for,
after all? As the number of US soldiers killed since the invasion
rockets past 3400, and Bush gambles with 30,000
more troops, The Independent on Sunday has learnt that the
Iraqi government is about to push through a law
giving Western oil companies the right to exploit the country's
massive oil reserves. Now, unnoticed by most
amid the furore over civil war in Iraq and Saddam's hanging,
the new oil law is almost ready to present to
Bush's crooked Iraq cabinet and then the crooked parliament.
Under the Cheney-written law, oil majors such
as BP and Shell in Britain, and Exxon and Chevron in the US,
would be able to sign deals of up to 30 years
to extract Iraq's oil.
Real Iraqis would never consent to let Americans steal their oil, but
they are Bush cronies.
And remember, Bush is stealing all that oil legally because BIG OIL
is writing "the law."
