"If Barack doesn't win Iowa, it's just a dream." 
   -- Michelle Obama, in Iowa. Some journalists have interpreted this statement

 I like Michelle, but this mistake, her first, is a big one.
 If there's a hint of concession, it should come from him, not her.

 I predict Obama will come in third in Iowa.

Bush, Oil and Moral Bankruptcy 
  by Ray McGovern

 consortiumnews.com

 Excerpt:
On Sept. 23, Zbigniew Brzezinski warned pointedly:

"If we escalate tensions, if we succumb to hysteria, if we start making threats, we are likely to stampede ourselves 
into a war with Iran, which most reasonable people agree would be a disaster for us...I think Bush & Cheney are 
trying to hype the atmosphere, and that is reminiscent of what preceded the war in Iraq."

So why the pressure for a wider war in which any victory will be Pyrrhic - for Israel and for the U.S.? 
The short answer is arrogant stupidity; the longer answer - oil.
 

Would evil old oil men send young men to their deaths for money and power?

Subject: I don't hate Hillary...

...but I don't love her either.

I have read you since very early on you deserve a lot of credit for fighting back long before many other people. 
I also read Kos every day too but for different reasons.  I understand how you feel & I understand where a lot 
of Kossacks are coming from.  A lot of those folks over there think that we are going to win next year even if 
we nominate an eggplant.  If that is true why not get the guy with the best ideas and most liberal positions? 
I'd want that.  But I am not so sure that 1) we win not matter who or 2) if the winner could force the 
Lieberman caucus to pass his programs.

I was not a Kerry fan but I worked hard for his campaign and I'll do the same for Hillary.  Most of the Kossacks 
will too.  She may not give me everything I want in a candidate but I think she can win and is tough enough to 
twist the arms desperately in need of it.

What I think we are seeing is typical Democratic behavior. 
We are going to fight like hell with each other until we have to fight the Republicans.

I just wish the Kossacks wouldn't take it personally and wouldn't do the Republicans dirty work by spreading their BS.

Quotes

"Ahmadinejad seemed so familiar. His grasp of history seems so tentative. He gets booed 
at an Ivy League school. He smirks a lot. He wants to visit Ground Zero, perhaps to get his 
hands on some of that 9/11 political equity. He ties up traffic in New York. He is blind to the 
whole gay thing. I know this guy. Where do I know this guy from?" 
    -- Alec Baldwin, trying to find a difference between Ahmahandjob and Der Fuhrer, Link

Blackwater's Fallujah Massacre

 Link

 Excerpt:
Blackwater "security firm" has come under criticism in the US for its role in a 2004 ambush in Fallujah 
that left four of its staff killed and the region in deadly chaos.

A House of Representatives report outlined the "unprepared and disorderly" build-up to the incident 
on 31 March, 2004, resulting in the employees - who were escorting a convoy - being executed and 
having their charred bodies hung from a bridge.

The disturbing attack was seen as a turning point for US public opinion after images of the charred bodies 
were shown around the world by the media. A few days later, the US military launched a major offensive 
in Fallujah, leading to one of the bloodiest periods since the 2003 invasion.
 

So, Bush's private army had their own 'Reichstagg moment.'
It sure painted the Iraqis as blood-thirsty ragheads that needed killing, right?

Larry Craig still not gay!
 Perv votes against gay hate crimes bill

 Link

 Excerpts:
Sen. Larry Craig "isn't gay."

To prove it, the recently-caught Republican shoe-tapper voted against the Matthew Shepard Act,
a Democratic led 'hate crimes' bill that aims to "let federal law enforcement help states prosecute attacks
on gays, attaching the provision to a Iraq war spending bill and daring Bush to veto the whole package."

The Democratic-controlled House passed the same hate crimes legislation as a stand-alone bill earlier this year
despite Bush's veto threat. That makes a repeat of 2004, when the Senate passed a similar amendment to the
same bill only to see it stripped out during negotiations with the Republican-led House, less likely this time around.
Bush, who hates gays despite having boy-toys with secret Secret Service passes, could then be faced with
vetoing the defense bill containing the same provision.

Subject: El Pais

Bart,

You didn't print the worst of it.  The El Pais article also said that Saddam Hussein offered to step down 
and leave Iraq, no bubbles, no troubles, if they gave him a billion bucks.  i guess if that happened the 
crazy bastard (He means Bush this time) wouldn't have been able to pump large amounts of cash into
Haliburton et al and be able to poor mouth kids without insurance.

The result? 

Close to a sixth of Iraq's pre-war population displaced or dead; God only knows how many have been maimed. 
The majority of the population living in terror from terrorists, Iraqi police, Blackwater and our military. 
Soldiers without arms and legs, more than 3800 soldiers dead.  And, of course, no war crimes trial.

Sad, sad Quotes

Allegedly from last Sunday's 60 Minutes

PELLEY: I asked President Bush what he would say to you if he were sitting in this chair.
And he told me, quote, speaking to you, that you've made terrible choices for your people.
You've isolated your nation. You've taken a nation of proud and honorable people and made
your country the pariah of the world. These are President Bush's words to you.
What's your reply to the president?

AHMADINEJAD: Well, President Bush is free to think as he pleases and to say what he pleases.
But that would not change the truth. So that Bush knows the Iranian people are dearly loved today.
We can very well put this to the test to find out who has become isolated. Again, maybe one of my
friends could go to another country and a friend of President Bush could go to the same country to
find out which one of us is isolated. You're free to choose any country you like.
 

Why is that sad?  Because Ahmahandjob is probably right.
If you threw darts at a globe, I'd bet in 90 percent of the countries hit those citizens would say
Bush and America are greater threats to the world than Ahmahandjob and Iran.

Think: How many tens of thousands of innocent people has Ahmahandjob killed lately?

Subject: Sharpton and Tawana Brawley

Bart:

EL should get his or her fact right before jumping to the defense of a (guy) like Al Sharpton. 
Very few people had heard of him before Tawana Brawley. 

All he did was take advantage of a scared young girl who made a mistake and used her to make a name for himself. 
Oh and by the way, he wasn't sued for standing up for Tawana Brawley.  He was sued for accusing Steve Pagones of rape. 
Day after day, for almost a month this charlatan claimed to have proof that Steve Pagones raped that poor girl. 
He never produced his proof and eventually just dropped the matter.  To this day he claims Steve Pagones did it. 

Al Sharpton is no victim. 
 Lucullus,  NYC
 

Lucullus, one of us is crazy and I'm hoping it's you.

If the girl is innocent, who smeared her with feces and wrote "slut" on her?
Are you saying Sharpton did that?  I haven't heard that theory before.

From my limited understanding of the situation, Sharpton is "guilty" of believing the girl.
Then, after a long investigation, the available evidence failed to back up her story.

Jesus and Nooses

 Link

 Excerpt:
An estimated 20,000 protesters marched in Jena in a scene that evoked the early years of the civil rights movement.

District Attorney Reed Walters said the demonstration had no influence on his decision not to press the adult charges, 
and ended his news conference by saying that only God kept the protest peaceful.

"The only way that this community has been able to endure the trauma that has been thrust upon us is through the prayers 
of the Christian people who have sent them up in this community," Walters said.

"The issue before us is not simply whether we should end Saddam's regime, but whether we

a unilateral war in Iraq know full well that there is no exit strategy if we invade and stay."

O.J. Lieberspan: If he quit it, he must quit it
 by my good friend Alan Bisbort

 Link

 Excerpt:
Joe Lieberman just moved from longtime home of New Haven to Stamford, Conn., where the local Democratic 
Party received unwelcome news. Holy Joe, you see, registered as a Democrat in his new home. He's also of late
been referring to himself as a Democrat on Fox News, the only network that still has his name in its Rolodex. 
Holy Joe knows Congress is headed for a major swing next year, with Democrats in firmer control; likewise, 
he knows his "independent" status will make him even more irrelevant than he already is now. He also feels 
more comfortable calling himself a Democrat now. Why not? Democrats won't end his favorite war or take 
legal action against his favorite modern president.

House Republicans in the Red

 Link

 Excerpt:
A crucial GOP fundraising committee is nearly broke, according to its latest monthly filing with the FEC. 
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) reported $1.6 million in cash on hand and 
$4 million in debts as of Aug. 31. The group helps bankroll House campaigns for GOP candidates. 
Its counterpart, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, reported $22.1 million, 
more than 10 times its Republican counterpart.
 

...and it's going to get worse for them.

The American whore media keeps saying "Congress has a terrible approval rating,"
but when you follow the money, you get quite a different story.

Hired Gun Fetish

 Link

 Excerpt:
Sometimes it seems that the only way to make sense of the Bush administration is to imagine that it's a 
vast experiment concocted by mad political scientists who want to see what happens if a nation systematically 
ignores everything we've learned over the past few centuries about how to make a modern government work.

Thus, Bush has abandoned the principle of a professional, nonpolitical civil service, stuffing agencies from FEMA 
to the Justice Department with unqualified cronies. Tax farming - giving individuals the right to collect taxes, 
in return for a share of the take - went out with the French Revolution; now the tax farmers are back.

And so are mercenaries, whom Machiavelli described as "useless and dangerous" more than four centuries ago.

'A Coup Has Occurred'
  by Daniel Ellsburg

 consortiumnews.com

 Excerpt:
I woke up the other day realizing, coming out of sleep, that a coup has occurred. 
It's not just a question that a coup lies ahead with the next 9/11. That's the next coup, that completes the first. 

The last five years have seen a steady assault on every fundamental of our Constitution, what the rest of the 
world looked at for the last 200 years as a model and experiment to the rest of the world - in checks and balances, 
limited government, Bill of Rights, individual rights protected from majority infringement by the Congress, 
an independent judiciary, the possibility of impeachment. 

There have been violations of these principles by many presidents before. Most of the things that Bush has done in
the way of illegal surveillance were done under LBJ in the Vietnam War: the use of CIA, FBI, NSA against Americans.

I could go through a list going back before this century to Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus in the Civil War, 
and before that the Alien and Sedition Acts in the 18th century. I think that none of those presidents were in fact 
what I would call quite precisely the current administration: domestic enemies of the Constitution.
