Bush Says US Must Honor Troops' Sacrifice, Finish Job in Iraq

Bush Says U.S. Must Honor Troops' Sacrifice, Finish Job in Iraq

Aug. 20 (Bloomberg) -- President George W. Bush said the U.S. will prevail in the battle to bring freedom to Iraq as anti- war protesters outside his Texas ranch demand that he bring the troops home.

``We must finish the task that our troops have given their lives for and honor their sacrifice by completing their mission,'' Bush said in his regular Saturday radio address. ``We can be confident in the ultimate triumph of our cause, because we know that freedom is the future of every nation.''

Public opinion polls show the administration losing support on Iraq as attacks by insurgents have mounted. Six U.S. soldiers were killed in combat in Iraq this week, bringing total U.S. deaths there to 1,861. Critics say Bush needs to shift his strategy.

I don't think William Green should play, but I'm not the coach right?

Palestinian elections to be held Jan. 25

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip -- Palestinian parliamentary elections will be held Jan. 25, Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas announced Saturday.

The elections were initially to have been held in July, but were postponed indefinitely because of Israel's Gaza pullout. In setting a firm date, Abbas was making a conciliatory gesture to his political rival, Hamas, which is expected to make a strong showing in the vote.

"The parliamentary election will take place in all of the homeland districts on Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2006," Abbas told a "model parliament" of high school students in Gaza City on Saturday.

Ben and Jerry's founder pays for PR firm for mother of fallen son

by Mark Hand PR Week Worldwire 19 Aug 2005

Bush: vigil outside President's ranch

CRAWFORD, TX - The PR firm working for Cindy Sheehan as she protests outside President Bush's ranch in Texas campaigning over the death of her son killed in Iraq has been paid for by Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben and Jerry's ice cream.

The 24-hour media attention being lavished upon Sheehan owes as much to the professionals supporting her as it does to the emotional impact of her story.

Fenton Communications is assisting Sheehan, the mother of a US soldier killed in Iraq, to earn media coverage for her vigil. TrueMajority, a nonprofit advocacy group created by Cohen is paying Washington, DC-based Fenton from the $70,000 that the group has raised so far to support Sheehan's protest efforts.

"Fenton is helping her with straight-out media relations, such as interviews and juggling different requests," said Jason Salzman, president of Cause Communications, which handles media relations for TrueMajority. "She's tapped into feelings against the war that have yet to [be] widely disseminated in the media."

Arguing with these people like Rove.

The philosophy is just let them speak themselves into a hole.

That's it.

You don't even have to think about it. Just let them show the world the hypocrisy.

Some politics, huh?

Ha, ha, ha.

Here you go War Dog.

Now put this shoe on this foot...then this one on the other.

=================================================

An average Woman..

Jane Doe..

Just showed up after makin cookies this morn..

=================================================

She's a contributor to Michael Moore's website and the Daily Kos.

She's called the US actions in the Middle East "spreading the cancer of imperialism."

She is separated from her husband, Casey's father, who doesn't approve of what she's doing.

She has written that "we have had hundreds of our children killed to gain control of the oil fields."

She has accused the VP of the US of profiting from the US invasion of Iraq - "I know it was “worth it” to Dick Cheney who was the CEO of Halliburton."

She has referred to the Bush administration as "the biggest terrorist outfit in the world."

"You get America out of Iraq, you get Israel out of Palestine..."

She has written to the chairman of Ford to demand that the company "take immediate action to reduce your fleet's greenhouse gas emissions to help prevent climate change."

Y'see I'm one of these whack job people...free lancer, contractor, self-employed types...

Entrepreneur is what they used to call them.

Anyway...I know the CIA is trying to recruit me.

What the fuck ever. Nothing's free.

I'm not going to be an employee if they don't trust me enough to pay me...and I sure as fuck ain't going to get wrapped up in an organization that loosely bases itself around criminal activity.

So who could blame me.

Get out. Go find another job.

Not rocket science there. I mean...look at these mechanics for North Worst Airlines.

What's the beef. Wages.

Does it take too much intelligence to figure out fascists only give a shit about themselves...now the CIA wants me to work for what...duty?

I worked on some government contract jobs because I needed to eat.

Now you'tre freaking out because I'm no longer playing through a $100 practise amp with one distortion pedal?

Only as long as it takes me to dial-up the blog...post a "free expressive" idea...then do whatever it was I was going to do that day anyway.

No biggie.

Y'all though.

It's your problem, not mine. Distracting me and my co-workers with your pettiness and paranoid fascism, isn't in the interest of the profits of my company.

Pretty simple, isn't it?

Feed them and they will come...as Janeane likes to say.

Miraculous what those words Progressive Democrat mean, don't they?

Y'all almost feel like being the minority should be a permanent job or something.

August 18, 2005: “The oil situation is rapidly reaching critical mass. Bush’s arrogance and bullying tactics coupled with the disruption of Iraqi production added to the diminishing supply of oil is leading to a catastrophe here. Gas is shooting up at the pumps and although there are vast amounts of oil readily available in the Strategic Reserve, none of this will be released because the Bush people figure they can sell it for money which will help them out when they retire. Couple this with a growing resistance to the U.S. shouted demands to the rest of the world to obey it’s dictums or else, everyone now realizes that we are a paper tiger and cannot just assault Venezuela as we would love to do. China and Russia are essentially rearming because they are afraid that an irrational Bush, losing power every day, might just launch some kind of an attack on them to divert the rest of the public from their growing, and serious, economic woes. Even the fanatic Republicans are getting nervous at what they elected and many, many members of Congress are beginning to hold private meetings, Republicans especially, to see how to distance themselves from Bush’s suicidal behavior without incurring his Imperial and spiteful wrath. That some kind of a revolt is looming in Congress is beyond a doubt but no one here has any idea of when or how.”

U.N. Agency Findings Back Up Iran Claim

VIENNA, Austria - U.N. nuclear agency tests have concluded that traces of highly enriched uranium on centrifuge parts were from imported equipment — rather than from any enrichment activities by Iran, a senior Western diplomat said Saturday.

The findings support Iran's claims that the material entered the country together with centrifuge parts provided by Pakistan. The diplomat who confirmed the results spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the case.

"The source of contamination was not related to Iran," said Iran Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi. "We are sure the source is not internal."

The United States has alleged the material was produced by Tehran and the particles were evidence that Iran was experimenting with producing highly enriched uranium, which is only used in nuclear weapons.

http://thinkprogress.org/2005/08/20/ann-althouse-responds-i-don%e2%80%99t-fact-check/

Ann Althouse Responds: I Don’t Fact Check

Ann Althouse says she isn’t responsible for the content of the editorial she pushed to thousands of Instapundit.com readers because she didn’t fact check it:

Frankly, I haven’t traced down the exact role of Jamie Gorelick as one of the government lawyers who played a role in restraining the sharing of information between intelligence and law enforcement. I didn’t fact-check the assertions in the editorial I cited.

Think Progress writes:

Shaffer’s story [re Able Danger], if it’s true, involved communications between the Department of Defense and the FBI. Gorelick’s 1995 memo was only about communications between the FBI and the criminal division of the Justice Department.

I didn’t fact-check that either.

Everyone can judges for themselves whether it’s right to reprint attacks on someone without any clue as to whether they’re true. But maybe now that we’ve pointed out that her information was wrong, she should let her readers know.

But remember, we are the real problem. By demanding the false smear on Gorelick be corrected we haven’t demostrated “a commitment to civil discourse.”

Well.

It isn't the literary device of Hunter or anything.

But it is what it is.

If you hate my grammar...if you hate my "yuir, your, you're"...

Then I say so be it. I don't have all day to be worried about your college journalism standards.

In fact, I think english was probably the most female of all my classes anyway.

How are these words going to help my skills?

Technically. They don't.

Which is why I like reading technical stuff, because it's the Dilbert in me I suppose.

Just wish I didn't have to feel like I must be ready for Carnegie Hall tomorrow, that's all.

Think you could make a mistake anymore, Jesus.

When did reality need to be so politically distorted...that supply and demand stopped being a universal law?

"What we expected to achieve was never realistic given the timetable or what unfolded on the ground," said a senior official involved in policy since the 2003 invasion. "We are in a process of absorbing the factors of the situation we're in and shedding the unreality that dominated at the beginning."

Swee-eeet, ain't it? "Unreality" we now learn was the problem. Indeed, so bereft of any plausible answers is the Bush Administration that Dubya's handlers perceive another meeting with Sheehan as a sign of mortal weakness. Steely-souled Dubya ain’t about to give in either to terrorists nor to that crazy lady from California, no-sir, no-way, no-how.

The Democrats who yearn to succeed Bush, meanwhile, continue their aimless trek through their private political desert babbling incoherently and erratically. Over there Joe Biden trying out a Field Marshal's uniform for size. Over here, Hillary Clinton rustling her skirts at lascivious video games. And now comes along her husband's errand-boy in the days of the Lewinsky scandal -- New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson climbing into bed with The Minutemen and hoping to ride the backs of illegal aliens into the Oval Office.

(And it's at this grave momoent in time, that I'd like to acknowledge Janeane's hard work on playing a character...who she exactly is in real life. Like me. The cop wannabee.)

Reporters?

Evidently. “In addition to unidentified U.S. and foreign government officials,” says the Post, “the indictment refers to an unknown number of journalists who were in contact with Rosen and, in some cases, allegedly received classified information….”

The goal, said prosecutors, was to "influence persons within and outside the United States government.” An interesting concept, that---in the context of a spy case. It seems that the 26-page indictment repeatedly alleges that the conspirators weren't merely out to weasel secrets from government officials. They also conspired to affect perception within (and without) the US government in order to "advance their foreign policy agendas."

I’d love to see that list of reporters, wouldn’t you? And I’d also really like to check the leaked secrets against what those reporters were writing at the time.

Just out of curiousity. Just to see if that influencing perception thingy worked.

It is not true that the ruling politico-economic interests are in a state of denial about this. Far worse than denial, they have shown utter antagonism toward those who think the planet is more important than corporate profits. So they defame environmentalists as "eco-terrorists," "EPA gestapo," "Earth Day alarmists," "tree huggers," and purveyors of "Green hysteria" and "liberal claptrap."

The plutocracy's position was summed up by that dangerous fool, erstwhile Senator Steve Symms (R-Idaho), who once said that if he had to choose between capitalism and ecology, he would choose capitalism. Symms seemed not to grasp that, absent a viable ecology, there will be no capitalism or any other ism.

In July 2005, President Bush finally muttered a grudging acknowledgment: "I recognize that the surface of the Earth is warmer and that an increase in greenhouse gases caused by humans is contributing to the problem." But this belated admission of a "problem" hardly makes up for Bush's many attacks against the environment.

Families Fill Cindy's Shoes

While Cindy cares for her mom in Los Angeles, the military parents who joined Cindy in Crawford held their own press conference today to tell George Bush that they want answers, too.

"Mr. President, we are here outside your ranch, and we are staying here. We Gold Star Families, MFSO and Iraq vets will remain encamped here until you meet with us - because we all deserve answers. Tell us - what exactly is this noble cause?"

- Mimi Evans, whose son is deploying to Iraq within days

DAMN SKIPPY!!!!

»I just read an article posted today on LewRockwell.com by artist Robert Shetterly who painted my portrait. The article reminded me of something I said at the Veteran's for Peace Convention the night before I set out to Bush's ranch in my probable futile quest for the truth. This is what I said:

"I got an email the other day and it said, `Cindy if you didn't use so much profanity .... there's people on the fence that get offended.'

"And you know what I said? `You know what? You know what, god damn it? How in the world is anybody still sitting on that fence?'

"If you fall on the side that is pro-George and pro-war, you get your ass over to Iraq, and take the place of somebody who wants to come home. And if you fall on the side that is against this war and against George Bush, stand up and speak out."«

1) if your secret is worth keeping, why tell me about it?

2) if a person can make pull a POUND (I still think you accidentally typed lb instead of oz) of gold out in a day, why aren't you and your boys doing just that?

3) If you aren't taking advantage of it, why not let me rent a dredge and go partners for a week?

»"If you fall on the side that is pro-George and pro-war, you get your ass over to Iraq, and take the place of somebody who wants to come home. And if you fall on the side that is against this war and against George Bush, stand up and speak out."«

Dr. Helen Caldicott is an Anti-Nuclear weapons author and activist who's website and organization, The Nuclear Institute, I think is well worth your time to investigate.

She and her organization provide many strong arguments to inform any dialog on a healthy and harmonious future.

I've seen her mentioned here before. She's on C-SPAN2 discussing her work and ideas regarding the ongoing evolution of humankind away from conflict and towards conflict resolution. Her newest book is "The New Nuclear Danger: George W. Bush's Military Industrial Complex."

Human's will always face conflict but it doesn't have to be aggressive conflict against each other, our future can be defined by a new direction: the struggle towards survival for all.

The struggle to see the value in each human life and to treat them with actual respect, not the distorted version the "Cons" want to sell us: they cherish life until birth then ignore it till it serves their purposes not to.

Our struggle (and a never ending one it would be) to improve the quality of life for every child, for every adult.

Our struggle to evolve away from agression and towards cooperation; towards compassion and away from retribution; towards justice, equality and fair play... away from oppression, exclusion and exploitation.

Yikes, I'm Late

Gotta go see ya all later

I more thing to nobody...

I don't doubt the exixtance of gold in washington, your tales just seems a bit exagerated.

If you want to `win' this arguement, why not just bring a small sample of it with you next time you are through town?

just bring a penny weight or two. and you might as well consider having it assayed somewhere as well.

you have to admit, your tale is a pretty tale one and you shouldn't be too surprised should people not believe it.

and besides, if your sitting on a reserve like you say, the more people who doubt it, the better.

Secrets are tricky. If you don't share a secret in some limited way, it's not a secret... it's just some thoughts, it's your thinking.

In order to become a secret, the thoughts which formulated the ideas that undergird its conceptualization must be shared to "some" but not shared with "all."

Nobody must think sharing whatever secret you're refering to here is important to the maintenance of that secret. The maintenance of a "secret" is the control of its "distribution."

Twist my arm already.

Now I'm dead in the head though.

Just want to wake up...even though my eyes first opened about three hours ago.

Managed to shower mysel though. Off to a good start there.

For breakfast, I had cinammon gum, garlic flavored snack food. Orange juice. Now this coffee.

I feel like my brain is going to explode.

George W. Bush is now consumed by what I call, a

"Full Nixon." The fates have turned on Bush and

are conspiring against him. He is essentially

finished as a politician. Like Nixon, he is

headed for a swift fall to total disgrace!

yep, it opened my audio editing software.

MP3s are fairly universal these days, I'd guess.

If it mattered to anyone, I could convert them and store them at CremeCityPop for a while.

It's especially appropriate since it's well within the purview of my milieu at CCP, being out of an Alpine Valley gig.

okie dokie.

The anon was me, obviously.

Very interesting article in yesterday's San Francisco Chronicle (8/19/05) titled "Navy wins appeal in abortion case" by Bob Egelko, Cgronicle Staff Writer, wherein is told how a navy wife, finding out the child (at 5 mos.) she was carrying was afflicted with anencephaly ("a neural defect that results in stillbirths in about two-thirds of cases and is invariably fatal to infants soon after birth) chose to terminate the pregnancy. Navy insurance refused to pay, claiming the mother's life wasn't threatened.
The original suit was ruled in the mother's favor but she then lost when the government appealed.

Geez. Bizarre. The added questions I have are: Was it possible for the birth defect to have anything to do with the vaccines, toxic/radioactive exposure, or other risks experienced by the father while he was a serviceman? If so, is the real import of this case that the Bush government chooses to force the wives of servicemen exposed to depleted uranium, etc., to carry deformed children to term?

Which is what befuddles me...because when you see these celebrities talk about the wealth like it's a ride...

I'm sorta like...why aren't these people in Canton interested in good business??

I can't tell you how that fucks with my head...but y'know. People pay for what they get too...so go figure.

There's Hollywood. There's Broadway...

Then there's Martin Luther King Jr. drive in any number of cities across this vast country filled with millions of opinions.

Each one of them just as eager for the ride.

Personally.

I'd just be happy for a cold one...and a garden less expensive to plant and harvest, than it cost at thwe grocery store.

Maybe a windmill to power my television set.

And a beagle named Courage.

But that's me. I don't know.

Somebody keeps telling me Merv Griffith yacht looks cool sitting at the dock.

That's like saying the car is fun to drive, because it looks cool.

Armageddon came early for George Bush this year, and he was not ready for it. His long-awaited showdowns with my man John Kerry turned into a series of horrible embarrassments that cracked his nerve and demoralized his closest campaign advisers. They knew he would never recover, no matter how many votes they could steal for him in Florida, where the presidential debates were closely watched and widely celebrated by millions of Kerry supporters who suddenly had reason to feel like winners.
Kerry came into October as a five-point underdog with almost no chance of winning three out of three rigged confrontations with a treacherous little freak like George Bush. But the debates are over now, and the victor was clearly John Kerry every time. He steamrollered Bush and left him for roadkill.

Did you see Bush on TV, trying to debate? Jesus, he talked like a donkey with no brains at all. The tide turned early, in Coral Gables, when Bush went belly up less than halfway through his first bout with Kerry, who hammered poor George into jelly. It was pitiful. . . . I almost felt sorry for him, until I heard someone call him "Mister President," and then I felt ashamed.

Karl Rove, the president's political wizard, felt even worse. There is angst in the heart of Texas today, and panic in the bowels of the White House. Rove has a nasty little problem, and its name is George Bush. The president failed miserably from the instant he got onstage with John Kerry. He looked weak and dumb. Kerry beat him like a gong in Coral Gables, then again in St. Louis and Tempe -- and that is Rove's problem: His candidate is a weak-minded frat boy who cracks under pressure in front of 60 million voters.

That is an unacceptable failure for hardballers like Rove and Dick Cheney. On the undercard in Cleveland against John Edwards, Cheney came across as the cruel and sinister uberboss of Halliburton. In his only honest moment during the entire debate, he vowed, "We have to make America the best place in the world to do business."

Bush signed his own death warrant in the opening round, when he finally had to speak without his TelePrompTer. It was a Cinderella story brou

Posted by: ¹³Ъзй at August 20, 2005 01:53 PM

Very cool.

Overture, curtain, lights

This is it, the night of nights

No more rehearsing and nursing a part

We know every part by heart

Overture, curtains, lights

This is it, we'll hit the heights

And oh what heights we'll hit

On with the show this is it

Tonight what heights we'll hit

On with the show this is it

Bush signed his own death warrant in the opening round, when he finally had to speak without his TelePrompTer. It was a Cinderella story brought up to date in Florida that night -- except this time the false prince turned back into a frog.

Immediately after the first debate ended I called Muhammad Ali at his home in Michigan, but whoever answered said the champ was laughing so hard that he couldn't come to the phone. "The debate really cracked him up," he chuckled. "The champ loves a good ass-whuppin'. He says Bush looked so scared to fight, he finally just quit and laid down."

Ali has seen that look before. Almost three months to the day after John Fitzgerald Kennedy was murdered in Dallas, the "Louisville Lip" -- then Cassius Clay -- made a permanent enemy of every "boxing expert" in the Western world by beating World Heavyweight Champion Sonny Liston so badly that he refused to come out of his corner for the seventh round.

This year's first presidential debate was such a disaster for George Bush that his handlers had to be crazy to let him get in the ring with John Kerry again. Yet Karl Rove let it happen, and we can only wonder why. But there is no doubt that the president has lost his nerve, and his career in the White House is finished. NO MAS.

Reporters?

Evidently. “In addition to unidentified U.S. and foreign government officials,” says the Post, “the indictment refers to an unknown number of journalists who were in contact with Rosen and, in some cases, allegedly received classified information….”

The goal, said prosecutors, was to "influence persons within and outside the United States government.” An interesting concept, that---in the context of a spy case. It seems that the 26-page indictment repeatedly alleges that the conspirators weren't merely out to weasel secrets from government officials. They also conspired to affect perception within (and without) the US government in order to "advance their foreign policy agendas." I’d love to see that list of reporters, wouldn’t you? And I’d also really like to check the leaked secrets against what those reporters were writing at the time. Just out of curiousity. Just to see if that influencing perception thingy worked.

I have never said anything wishy-washy like he uses 'Patriotic Rhetoric.'

...my son died for LIES. George Bush LIED to us and he knew he was LYING.

The Downing Street Memos dated 23 July, 2002 prove that he knew that Saddam didn't have WMD's or any ties to Al Qaeda.

I believe that George lied and he knew he was lying. He didn't use patriotic rhetoric.

He lied and made us afraid of ghosts that weren't there. Now he is using patriotic rhetoric to keep the U.S. military presence in Iraq: Patriotic rhetoric that is based on greed and nothing else.

Bush Begins 5-Day Push to Defend Iraq War

By NEDRA PICKLER, Associated Press Writer

Saturday, August 20, 2005

(08-20) 08:36 PDT Crawford, Texas (AP) --

With anti-war protesters continuing their vigil outside President Bush's ranch, the commander in chief began a five-day push Saturday to tell Americans why he thinks U.S. troops must continue the fight in Iraq.

In his weekly radio address, Bush argued that the war in Iraq will keep Americans safe for generations to come. He'll try to drive the point home with speeches in upcoming days in Utah and Idaho.

"Our troops know that they're fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere to protect their fellow Americans from a savage enemy," the president said in the recorded broadcast.

"They know that if we do not confront these evil men abroad, we will have to face them one day in our own cities and streets, and they know that the safety and security of every American is at stake in this war, and they know we will prevail."

Now they solvesd that problem for the big boys.

They went to slow speed diesels.

But these mammoth engines.

Too heavy.

Parts are expensive as hell.

What you want are locamotive engines.

Or what GM would call...Electro-Motive Diesels.

EMD

The trick is getting them to handle the heavy fuel oil.

The cylinder head gaskets blow, plus the carbon builds up rapidly.

The whole make-up of the motor changes.

The block, foundation...whatever you want to call it.

The motor in your car.

It's crank bolts to the bottom, right?

Well.

In a heavy fuel oil medium speed diesel...that changes.

You lose the train/ship market...because now you are manufacturing just for ships.

Hence.

European engines. simple.

That means you need to get them over here.

And guess what.

There's a law that says...ships have to be built with American engines.

Which is how I'd like it too...so we're going to ignore that whole intellectual property clause in the WTO discussions, right?

I mean...Vioxx is a bad thing...but you can't bankrupt the drug business.

as if Medicare wasn't a probloem or something.

I'm just saying.

A quarter of a billion dollars is the precise irrationlism...these politicians are looking for to get even wealthier kickbacks.

All I want...is a solution to these fuel costs and it seems pretty obvious to me.

Either GM does this...or Caterpiller...or we use European parts.

Which means I gotta go over there and arrange this, Bill.

In a variation of "the operation was a success but the patient died,"

--

Kerry: No change needed in party
Don't 'lurch' to the right or left, Democrats told

By NEIL MODIE
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER

In a variation of "the operation was a success but the patient died," Sen. John Kerry gave an upbeat assessment of his losing 2004 campaign for the White House during a brief Seattle visit Friday.

In what might be part of an effort to try again for the presidency in 2008, the Massachusetts Democrat stressed to a national gathering of Democratic state legislators the importance of rebuilding the party by having it strengthen its grass roots "and fight even harder for what we believe in."

"We don't need some great lurch to the right or lurch to the left or redefinition of the Democratic Party. The last thing America needs is a second Republican Party," Kerry told the luncheon audience of 750 state lawmakers at the Westin Seattle Hotel. They are here to attend the National Conference of State Legislatures.

And you know it's a fantasy...and I know it's a fantasy.

But if it's going to a business venture, then it's just feasible.

That's all I'm saying.

No biggie.

not like we need to go the Navy for their scrap.

Kerry thinks he is going to run again. What a joke. If Kerry or Gore think they are going to get another bite of the apple they are nus.

And That's the Truth!

Steerable thrusters...Z-Drives...out.

Controllable Pitch Propellers and Medium Speed Diesels with Reduction Gears. In.

The gears aren't as expensive as they say to make.

The tolerances don't need to be mil-spec. In fact...it can even be machined in Mexico with Japanese steel.

Just a thought, Bill. Trust me on this one. Want to be in the wilderness...then take spare tires.

Those Z-Drives are junk.

Get a good propeller...and a second for backup.

You're set.

It'll have to be a helluva wave to turn that bow over on it's side.

"War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it. Every war, when it comes or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self defense against a homicidal maniac."

America has given Blood & Treasure for a Islamic Iraq. Iran Thanks You!

U.S. "concession" on Islam said to turn Iraq talks

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - U.S. concessions to Islamists on the role of religion in Iraqi law marked a turn in talks on a constitution, negotiators said on Saturday as they raced to meet a 48-hour deadline under intense U.S. pressure to clinch a deal.

U.S. diplomats, who have insisted the constitution must enshrine ideals of equal rights and democracy, declined comment.

Shi'ite, Sunni and Kurdish negotiators all said there was accord on a bigger role for Islamic law than Iraq had before.

But a secular Kurdish politician said Kurds opposed making Islam not "a" but "the" main source of law -- a reversal of interim legal arrangements -- and subjecting all legislation to a religious test.

"We understand the Americans have sided with the Shi'ites," he said. "It's shocking. It doesn't fit American values. They have spent so much blood and money here, only to back the creation of an Islamist state ... I can't believe that's what the Americans really want or what the American people want."

And That's the Truth!

New Wärtsilä factory inaugurated in China

Press release 30 June 2005 Trade & Technical Press

Wärtsilä today inaugurated its new, state-of-the-art production plant in Wuxi, PR China.

This new factory Wärtsilä Propulsion (Wuxi) Co Ltd is Wärtsilä’s first wholly-owned production venture in China and is focusing on the manufacture of Lips-brand Transverse Thrusters. Also known as bow thrusters or tunnel thrusters, they are used in all kinds of vessels to help in manoeuvring at low ship speeds.

At the inauguration, Ole Johansson, President & CEO of Wärtsilä, declared “China is a remarkably fast-growing market for Wärtsilä. In just one year, we have firmly established our presence in China by putting into operation a joint venture for propeller manufacturing and now starting also the manufacture of thrusters. The next step will be to build auxiliary generating sets in China. Together with our existing sales and service units in key locations in China, we have greater opportunities to serve our customers better and increase our global market share.”

Nearly every vessel has one or more transverse thrusters. They are also widely used in offshore vessels for dynamic positioning. Lips Transverse Thrusters designed for controllable- and fixed-pitch propellers cover a power range from 450 up to 3550 kW, with propeller diameters in the range of 1.2 up to 3.0 m, which caters for virtually every market requirement.

The new factory, which is located about 100 km west of Shanghai, will serve the global shipbuilding market. At the same time it brings thruster manufacture closer to the major shipbuilding areas in East Asia.

Augsburg / Stockport 1st August, 2005. Engine manufacturer MAN B&W Ltd, located in Stockport (England), will in future be focusing on extended service business and on the production of the new RK280 engine series. The MAN B&W Diesel Group’s English site introduced measures to improve competitiveness at the beginning of April, which included optimising of the production facilities and the product line. As the new Head of Development, Dr. Franz Koch will be moving from the Augsburg headquarters to Stockport. He will be supported by a team based in Augsburg. Apart from development, assembly and testing, the focus of the activities at the Stockport plant will be purchasing and logistics for the series. Deliveries of the first RK280 models to the market have already commenced.

Parts production, together with the manufacturing of spare parts for the other English series such as the RK215, VP185, RK270 and the older engine models from Mirrlees-Blackstone, Paxman and Ruston, will be managed by the MAN B&W Diesel Group’s production network in Germany, France and UK. This ensures that MAN B&W Diesel Ltd will be able to continue offering its customers a full spectrum of services and spare parts. Wayne Jones has been brought on board as the new head of the service division. He previously worked at Sulzer Pumps in Leeds, England, as Director of Customer Support Services. In his role as Deputy Managing Director, he will extend the service and spare parts business and align the entire entity with customer needs.

The machine tools at the Stockport plant will be taken over by the Korean STX Group, who thereby deepens a licensing partnership with the MAN B&W Diesel Group of many years’ standing. In the STX plants in Korea and China the machine tools will produce components for ship engines, that STX is manufacturing under MAN B&W Diesel license. The transfer will commence in January 2006.

Discussions are currently underway with potential partner firms regarding the continuation of the high-speed diesel engine series VP185, RK215 and RK270.

CINDY SHEEHAN: COMMANDER IN GRIEF
August 17, 2005

To expiate the pain of losing her firstborn son in the Iraq war, Cindy Sheehan decided to cheer herself up by engaging in Stalinist agitprop outside President Bush's Crawford ranch. It's the strangest method of grieving I've seen since Paul Wellstone's funeral. Someone needs to teach these liberals how to mourn.

Call me old-fashioned, but a grief-stricken war mother shouldn't have her own full-time PR flack. After your third profile on "Entertainment Tonight," you're no longer a grieving mom; you're a C-list celebrity trolling for a book deal or a reality show.

Former Head Of Pentagon's Depleted Uranium Project Says Thousands Of Troops Are Sick And Dying From Illegal DU Use And Military's Failure To Admit Responsibility

After Maj. Doug Rokke went public in 1997 exposing the military's flawed DU program, his life has been threatened but he still continues to search for solutions in order to save the lives of those afflicted.

The logical, intellectual and ethical shortcomings of such a statement are staggering. If one dead son means no one can win an argument with you, how about two dead sons? What if the person arguing with you is a mother who also lost a son in Iraq and she's pro-war? Do we decide the winner with a coin toss? Or do we see if there's a woman out there who lost two children in Iraq and see what she thinks about the war?

Dowd's "absolute" moral authority column demonstrates, once again, what can happen when liberals start tossing around terms they don't understand like "absolute" and "moral." It seems that the inspiration for Dowd's column was also absolute. On the rocks.

America Has Turned Against the War

When the reporters from the network affiliates interviewed her, and heard her speak movingly about the losses being suffered because of a war based upon lies for which so many reasons have been given and then debunked or rejected, there were tears in some of their eyes.

There were no hard-edged, cynical questions about motives or politics.

Something has happened.

Liberals demand that we listen with rapt attention to Sheehan, but she has nothing new to say about the war. At least nothing we haven't heard from Michael Moore since approximately 11 a.m., Sept. 11, 2001. It's a neocon war; we're fighting for Israel; it's a war for oil; Bush lied, kids died; there is no connection between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaida. Turn on MSNBC's "Hardball" and you can hear it right now. At this point, Cindy Sheehan is like a touring company of Air America radio: Same old script and it's not even the original cast.

These arguments didn't persuade Hillary Clinton or John McCain to vote against the war. They didn't persuade Democratic primary voters, who unceremoniously dumped anti-war candidate Howard Dean in favor of John Kerry, who voted for the war before he voted against it. They certainly didn't persuade a majority of American voters who re-upped George Bush's tenure as the nation's commander in chief last November.

http://www.anncoulter.com/cgi-local/welcome.cgi

But now liberals demand that we listen to the same old arguments all over again, not because Sheehan has any new insights, but because she has the ability to repel dissent by citing her grief.

On the bright side, Sheehan shows us what Democrats would say if they thought they were immunized from disagreement. Sheehan has called President Bush "that filth-spewer and warmonger." She says "America has been killing people on this continent since it was started" and "the killing has gone on unabated for over 200 years." She calls the U.S. government a "morally repugnant system" and says, "This country is not worth dying for." I have a feeling every time this gal opens her trap, Michael Moore gets a residuals check.

Former Vietnam Combat and Commercial Pilot Firm
Believer 9/11 Was Inside Government Job

Posted on: 7/17/2005 7:54:00 AM - Columnist
By Greg Szymanski

There was no fooling former Air Force and commercial pilot Russ Wittenberg the morning of 9/11. He knew it was an inside job from the get-go, knowing the ‘big boys’ were up to the same dirty tricks they played in the Kennedy assassination and Pearl Harbor.

The government may have fooled millions of Americans with its cockamamie official story, but the former fighter pilot who flew over 100 combat missions in Vietnam and who sat for 35 years in the cockpit for Pan Am and United, wasn’t one of them.

Now, almost four years later, Wittenberg is still shaking his head in disbelief more than ever, saying the country he loved and fought so bravely 40 years ago has fallen in the deep, dark and sinister hands of fascist leaders who are quickly turning America into a military state.

Russia: Putin Calls For Withdrawal Timetable For Iraq

Russian President Vladimir Putin called yesterday for a timetable for pulling foreign troops out of Iraq. The Russian leader said many Iraqis view the foreign troops as "occupiers" and suggested the withdrawal will encourage insurgents to abandon violence in favor of contributing to the creation of the state. The United States was quick to reject his call, saying it is still too early for a pullout.

US reject Russian call for Iraq troop pullout

Ready to go to war against Russia? That is where Bush is taking us.

Talk about courage. Cindy Sheehan has given 250 media interviews in two weeks, each time facing the answering questions "off the cuff". I am not sure George Bush has ever done that. Once, he was asked a question he was unprepared for by an Irish news lady, and it almost caused an international incident. When faced with the extemperaneous in Germany, he chicked out of the interview. Now I see why he does NOT want to face Cindy.

>>If we were imposing our will I could see why you might cry out..

but up until this week that's exactly what you wanted to do. You wanted to bring democracy to iraq. No chance of that now. You guys were wrong. But since Bush has manufactured several different reasons for going in the first place, I'm sure you'll be able to fall back on one of them.

How about "We need to stay the course to avenge the death of the other kids we sent to their deaths"

or

"What kind of a president would I be to make our troops leave Iraq when their having so much gosh-dang fun, like the fun I had when I was in the military?"

Your straw man argument positing libs not celebrating iraqi's freedom to reject democracy is pretty flat, when you consider how many kids you guys sent there to establish it, or die trying.

You wanted democracy enough to justify sending troops...now you don't care so much. You are a flip-flopper.

Ignore. That’s what the vast majority of Germans did in the 1930s as Hitler curtailed civil liberties and launched aggressive wars. I was born in August 1939, a week before Hitler sent German tanks into Poland to start World War II. I have studied that crucial time in some detail. And during the five years I served in Germany I had occasion to ask all manner of people how it could possibly be that, highly educated and cultured as they were, the Germans for the most part could simply ignore. Why was it that the institutional churches, Catholic and Evangelical Lutheran, could not find their voice? Why was it that so few spoke out?

Something has happened.

Cathy..

Can you be so blind?

They are writing their Constitution..

THEY ARE writing their Constitution..

It must get a 66% approval vote..

VOTE by the people...

What is it you fear..?

What can be more Democratic than that?

>> If one dead son means no one can win an argument with you, how about two dead sons?

now, is Cindy actually saying no one can argue with her? 'Cause i just haven't heard her say that.

The first sole voice of dissent and you guys want to annihilate it? Don't listen, if you don't like it. She has a right to grieve, and be against the war, as other moms have the right to grieve and still be for it. Cindy hasn't said anything about how wrong THOSE mothers are.

Seems you guys must think with one mind, and slap down any difference of opinion,.

My nephew is in Kuwait with the Strykers, on his way to Rawah, Iraq. If something terrible happens to him, I would support his mother setting up a raodside stand outside of a politicians house with signs supporting the war that took her son's life. I'd think she was nuts, but accept her right to do so absolutely, as long as she didn't state that hers was the only belief POSSIBLE.

If someone made fun of her divorce, or looks, or mental state, I would still support her, and fight that kind of crap. I still wouldn't agree with her opinions on the matter, but I wouldn't shoot guns over her head, or mow down a tribute she put up to her son.

You know what, I would support a mother's right to grieve publically no matter what side she was on, whether I was related to her or not, especially if creeps started making fun of her looks. I draw the line at her verbally attacking other mothers for NOT grieving the way she does. But Cindy hasn't done that.

lets hear more about this story

David Lombino of The New York Sun continues to move the Air America story forward. According to Lombino's latest article, Al Franken revealed that Air America's current owners have known about the loan from Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club for some time:

"Mr. Franken said he has learned details of the story only in the last week. He said Piquant LLC, current owner and operator of the radio network, found a record of the transfers while conducting a "forensic" investigation into the finances of the previous owner, Progress Media, which was run by [former Air America chairman Evan] Cohen. That internal probe was conducted before the city agency became involved, Mr. Franken said."
A spokesman for the NYC Department of Investigation, Keith Schwam, told Lombino that if Air America discovered the transfers before the city probe began, "They neglected to tell anyone at DOI or in the city about it."

"Sweet Neo-Con" Lyrics

“You ride around your white castle,
On your little white horse

You lie to your people,
and blame it on your war of course

You call yourself a Christian,
I call you a hypocrite

You call yourself a patriot,
well I think you’re full of shit

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
What path have you led them on?

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
Is it time for the atom bomb?

You parade around in costume,
Expecting to be believed

But as the body bags stack up,
We believe we’ve been deceived

The horror you’ve unleased,
Will backfire with more grief

When will you ever learn,
Sweet Neo Con, as the world burns?

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
What path have you led them on?

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
Is it time for the atom bomb?

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
What path have you led them on?

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
Is it time to drop the bomb?”

LOL

It appears that the last indicative event was indeed Cindy Sheehan and the responses from the wingnuts (that's you)...

That is the event that indicates the the likely outcomes of this conflict...

In a combat situation said events would be comparable to the word engagement...

A battle is made up of a number of engagements...

You can tell how things are going by how each side reacts in these engagements...

Do they bring in tanks or do they fall back...If they've got tanks you'll see them...If they don't they'll fall back on more desperate tactics...

So...three such events would be Terry Schiavo, Rove and Cindy Sheehan...

There was no ground gained by "your" side on any of these issues...all though you wouldn't like to call them victories for "my" side you lost ground each time...capisca?

Bush's Fury Over Sheehan

The mean streak in George W. Bush, which for the most part he has kept hidden during his presidency, started to resurface earlier this month in his contretemps with war protester Cindy Sheehan over Iraq. First, his presidential caravan sped by the Sheehan outpost without his stopping to meet with her. Then Bush publicly brushed off Sheehan with the extraordinary comment: "I think it's important for me to go on with my life." (Meantime, 1,840 or so Americans ordered to Iraq at his behest have died there without having a chance to get along with their lives.)

These recent slip-ups are clues into George W.'s soul. Bush operates against his "enemies" usually through his political handlers like Karl Rove, while he remains above the battle. Bush does not express his own anger against a foe. Bush knows this script intimately. He acted as the enforcer on behalf of his father. But this time, his public miscues revealed the game at hand. Don't be surprised now about the inevitable besmirchment of Cindy Sheehan, already in process. This time, however, it will be more difficult for the White House to hide the source of the vilification.

Cindy Sheehan: 35% Favorable 38% Unfavorable

August 19, 2005--Cindy Sheehan, the grieving mother who maintained an anti-War protest outside of President Bush's ranch, is viewed favorably by 35% of Americans and unfavorably by 38%.

Sheehan is viewed favorably by 34% of men and 35% of women. Forty-two percent (42%) of men and 34% of women have an unfavorable view.

In general, people see in Sheehan what they want to see. Opinion about her is largely based upon views of the War, rather than views about the woman herself. Democrats, by a 56% to 18% margin, have a favorable opinion. Republicans, by a 64% to 16% margin, have an unfavorable view. Those not affiliated with either major party are evenly divided.

People who think we should withdraw troops from Iraq now have a positive opinion of Sheehan (59% favorable, 12% unfavorable). Those who do not think we should withdraw troops at this time have a negative view (15% favorable , 64% unfavorable).

Among those with family members who have served in the military, Sheehan is viewed favorably by 31% and unfavorably by 48%.

Forty-two percent (42%) of Married Americans have an unfavorable opinion of Sheehan while 33% have a favorable opinion. Among those who are not married, Sheehan's numbers are 38% favorable and 30% favorable.

Fifty-five percent (55%) of Americans say they are following the Sheehan story somewhat or very closely. That is a lower level of interest than Americans have in stories about Iran's nuclear capabilities. It is roughly comparable to the interest in stories about Supreme Court nominee John Roberts.

News reports said that Sheehan left Texas yesterday (Thursday) to be with her mother who had suffered a stroke. Sheehan vowed to return as soon as possible.

U.S. conceding to Iraqi Islamists, negotiators say

Islam will be "the main source" of Iraq's law and parliament will observe religious principles, negotiators said on Saturday after what some called a major turn in talks on the constitution and a shift in the U.S. position.

If agreed by Monday's parliamentary deadline, it would appear to be a major concession to Islamist leaders from the Shi'ite Muslim majority and sit uneasily with U.S. insistence on the primacy of democracy and human rights in the new Iraq.

In Two Shootings by Iraq Vets, War Stress Blamed

One was a skinny 20-year-old discharged from the Army who couldn't shake the piercing rat-a-tat-tat reminders of combat. The other, a decorated Marine family man whose job preparing bodies of U.S. soldiers for burial had caused clammy, restless nights.

Both home from duty in Iraq, they were on opposite ends of the country, but their stories have much in common.

In Las Vegas, Matthew Sepi was on his way to get a beer, but he tucked an assault rifle inside his black trenchcoat just in case. In Lawrence, Mass., Daniel Cotnoir brought out his 12-gauge shotgun. Both pulled the trigger. Now Sepi faces murder and attempted murder charges while Cotnoir is charged with attempted murder

war Dog, I don't think our troops went to Iraq to die to NOT set up a democracy. They went there because among other reasons, Bush said he was going to bring democracy to iraq. Women will not be allowed to vote from here on out for the foreseeable future. That's not democracy. That doesn't bother you? Do you think the President brought democracy to Iraq?

Ohio Republicans Reeling With Governor's Conviction, Rare Coins Scandal

In November, Ohio was at the center of the national political stage, delivering the White House to President Bush.

Eight months later, the state's Republican Party is reeling: its leader convicted of ethics violations; a narrow win in a gimmie congressional district; an investment scandal that won't go away.

The troubles play out as the casualty rate climbs from the war in Iraq and the state economy remains stuck in a slump. The war could hurt Bush's standing in Ohio, mirroring a decline in his popularity nationally. His overall job approval was at 42 percent in a recent poll, with just 38 percent approving of his handling of Iraq.

Subject: Supporting Our Marines

I attended the MAG-13 Change of Command last night. As always, it was a moving affair. Had the opportunity to talk to a lot of friends I don't have a chance to see very often. One conversation in particular was very enlightening.

This Colonel had a young Marine officer who sold his home through Carol Engler. (For anyone skeptical, I can provide names off line.) She later sued him because he did not vacate in a timely manner. The Marine in question was in Iraq at the time and, not surprisingly, was having a tough time coordinating and affecting a move.

He won the case; but it cost him several thousand dollars to hire a lawyer and fight it. If that is the kind of support of our Marines we can expect from a "Mayor Angler", then let me contribute to Mayor Nelsons travels. He seems intent on keeping the Marines here rather than taking advantage of their plight.

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - A U.S. soldier was killed Saturday by a roadside bomb in the Iraqi capital, the military said.

The soldier, assigned to the 42nd Military Police Brigade, died at the hospital after the blast in Baghdad, the military said. No other details were released.

At least 1,865 members of the U.S. military have died since the Iraq war began in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count.

Rush somehow believes Cindy made the whole thing up. I'm not exactly what he's questioning...maybe she didn't really have a son? Maybe he really wasn't killed?

Authorities say three rebels have been killed in the fighting. They also say they seized a car used in the kidnapping-slaying of three members of the Iraqi Islamic Party yesterday.

Separately, gunmen have killed a retired brigadier general in Saddam Hussein's army as he drove his car.

Outside, Mosul, a roadside bomb has wounded six Kurdish militiamen, while another bomb nearby missed a U-S convoy, but injured six civilians.

In Fallujah, west of Baghdad, two separate attacks have killed three Iraqi soldiers.

Fallujah is a former insurgent stronghold that has been relatively quiet since U-S and Iraqi troops took control of the city in November.

San Francisco Shuns Retired USS Iowa

By BRIAN SKOLOFF, Associated Press Writer

Sat Aug 20,12:24 PM ET

SAN FRANCISCO - The USS Iowa joined in battles from World War II to Korea to the Persian Gulf. It carried President Franklin Roosevelt home from the Teheran conference of allied leaders, and four decades later, suffered one of the nation's most deadly military accidents.

Veterans groups and history buffs had hoped that tourists in San Francisco could walk the same teak decks where sailors dodged Japanese machine-gun fire and fired 16-inch guns that helped win battles across the South Pacific.

Instead, it appears that the retired battleship is headed about 80 miles inland, to Stockton, a gritty agricultural port town on the San Joaquin River and home of California's annual asparagus festival.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (news, bio, voting record), D-Calif., a former San Francisco mayor, helped secure $3 million to tow the Iowa from Rhode Island to the Bay Area in 2001 in hopes of making touristy Fisherman's Wharf its new home.

But city supervisors voted 8-3 last month to oppose taking in the ship, citing local opposition to the Iraq war and the military's stance on gays, among other things.

2 soldiers killed by bomb are identified

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002446678_dige20m.html

The Defense Department yesterday released the names of two Fort Lewis-based soldiers killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan.

Killed were 1st Lt. Laura M. Walker, 24, of Texas, and Sgt. Robert G. Davis, 23, of Jackson, Mo., both members of the Army's 864th Engineer Combat Battalion, 555th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade.

Both soldiers died Thursday in Kandahar, Afghanistan, when an explosive device detonated under their vehicle during a convoy.

In an Internet posting earlier this month, Walker wrote that her unit was building a road between Kandahar and Tarin Kowt, a city to the north that was described as the heart of the Taliban movement.

"The extension of routes into rural Afghanistan provides much potential in strengthening the new government's credibility. The completion of the road couldn't come at a better time," she wrote.

She also took photographs that showed bulldozers working in mountainous terrain.

Judge berates US failures as 9/11 supporter is convicted

A GERMAN court yesterday convicted a Moroccan student of belonging to the al-Qaeda cell responsible for the attacks on America of September 11, 2001, but acquitted him of direct involvement in the murder of nearly 3,000 people.

Mounir al-Motassadeq, 31, was sentenced to seven years in prison for membership of a terrorist organisation, but the judge ruled that the more serious charges were not proven, in part because of a failure by the US authorities to co-operate with the prosecution.

In a three-hour judgment, read out before a court in Hamburg, Judge Ernst-Rainer Schudt said that the US Justice Department had refused to co-operate fully with the German court.

“How are we supposed to do justice to our task when important documents are withheld from us?” the judge asked.

US troops accused of shooting general - 21aug05

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/printpage/0,5942,16334476,00.html

AN Iraqi general who commands the country's border defence force was shot and wounded while driving in Baghdad late today and accused US troops of firing on his car, police and hospital sources said.

The report could not be confirmed directly with the general; a US military spokesman said he was unaware of an incident.
Major General Ali Hamadi told doctors at Yarmouk Hospital, who treated him for a gunshot wound to the abdomen, that US forces fired on him as he was driving to a doctor's appointment.

He was later transferred to a hospital in the US-defended Green Zone government compound.

Sources at Baghdad police headquarters, which like the border security force is overseen by the interior ministry, said Hamadi is the overall commander of the Iraqi Border Police.

They too said he was shot by US troops.

A spokesman for the US force in the Iraqi capital said he was unaware of the incident and would check the report.

Iraqis daily accuse American troops of opening fire on motorists, often killing them. US commanders say soldiers, who are trained to be vigilant against suicide car bombers who approach checkpoints or convoys, take care to protect civilians.

Fletcher computer files copied,/a>

Investigators from the attorney general's office began copying the computer network server for Gov. Ernie Fletcher's office yesterday after receiving a search warrant.

The 5 p.m. search was related to a special grand jury's investigation into allegations that the Fletcher administration violated state hiring laws by filling jobs on the basis of politics, not qualifications.

In a related development, Attorney General Greg Stumbo warned Fletcher in a letter delivered last week that the truth within allegations of illegal hiring can only be determined at trial and "now is not the time for a pardon."

Fletcher has said he has not ruled out exercising his power to issue pardons for nine current and former administration officials who have been indicted.

GOP adviser named to ethics panel

Gov. Ernie Fletcher has put another of his "county contacts" -- local Republican advisers -- on the Executive Branch Ethics Commission, which is investigating possible GOP political bias in his administration's hiring.

Yesterday, Fletcher named former state Rep. J. Quentin Wesley, R-Morganfield, to the five-member ethics panel. As one of Fletcher's two Union County contacts, Wesley occasionally was called by Fletcher aides for his opinion of state job applicants in his area, a controversial practice now under investigation.

Wesley is also a vocal critic of the several investigations into Fletcher's merit-system hiring, saying they are politically motivated by unhappy Democrats.

nice about-face, War Dog.

I never hoped to control their religion. While I don't accept their view of woemn, I never said lets go over there and kill them till they change their attitudes towards women. I said Bush was a hypocrit to say he wanted rights for women in Iraq, while trying to get rid of some of our rights here in America. So you think as long as they call it a democracy, but there's no provisions for rights for woemn, then it's stilla democracy? What part of democracy don't you understand?

I couldn't believe Bush said we were on a crusade in the middle east, and his friends, handlers, trainers, apologists, all saying what we need is Christianity in the Middle east. I believe you were openly weeping about Iranians not being "sane" enough to refrain from sending a nuke our way last night.

Iraq talks stall over Islam, oil

http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/world/iraq/20050820-0606-iraq.html

Excerpt -

BAGHDAD, Iraq – Talks on Iraq's new constitution have stalled over the role of Islam and the distribution of the country's oil wealth, negotiators said Saturday. The leadership of the country's Kurdish minority said it may drop its contentious demand for the right to secede.
In Mosul, U.S. troops and Iraqi police clashed with insurgents Saturday, killing three of them and seizing a car used in the kidnapping-slaying of three members of the Iraqi Islamic Party the day before, police said.

Police Brig. Gen. Saeed Ahmed al-Jbouri said it was unclear if the three insurgents killed were among those who grabbed three Sunnis on Friday as they hung posters encouraging people to register and vote in the Oct. 15 referendum. The Sunnis later were killed near a mosque.

Iraqis have until Monday night to complete work on the draft constitution or else parliament must dissolve. The United States is putting intense pressure on negotiators to finish the charter, which Washington hopes will in time take the steam out of the insurgency.

Mullah Bakhtiyar, a senior official from the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, the political party of Iraq's President Jalal Talabani, said all parties were showing flexibility in order to finish drafting the constitution.

"As for the self-determination for the Kurds, this issue did not enjoy the support of Sunnis or Shiites, and we almost gave up this demand," Bakhtiyar said.

The Kurds have enjoyed de-facto independence since 1991. If they drop their demand to guarantee the right of self-determination – a code word for eventual secession that goes beyond mere federalism – it would represent a major concession and remove an obstacle to agreement on the charter.

But a comprehensive compromise on a constitutional draft remained elusive, with the main outstanding dispute focusing on the role of Islam in the new state, pitting Kurds and secular groups against Islamist parties representing Ira

His vehicle ran over a land mine twice in one day. We always talk about "if" something would happen to my son, I would never dishonor him. I'm sorry. I'm getting emotional in this. I would never dishonor his actions by doing what this woman is doing. My son volunteered to join the Marines. When he was 18 years, one month, and ten days old on September 12th he announced that he was joining the Marines after he saw the Twin Towers fall. When his first orders to Iraq were canceled he told us that, "Bush better not pull out before I get there." He knew it was something that needed to be done. He's going back for his second tour next month. What she's doing is not only dishonoring her son, she's dishonoring mine.

Bush Begins 5-Day Push to Defend Iraq War

CRAWFORD, Texas - With anti-war protesters continuing their vigil outside President Bush's ranch, the commander in chief began a five-day push Saturday to tell Americans why he thinks U.S. troops must continue the fight in Iraq.

In his weekly radio address, Bush argued that the war in Iraq will keep Americans safe for generations to come. He'll try to drive the point home with speeches in upcoming days in Utah and Idaho.

"Our troops know that they're fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere to protect their fellow Americans from a savage enemy," the president said in the recorded broadcast.
"They know that if we do not confront these evil men abroad, we will have to face them one day in our own cities and streets, and they know that the safety and security of every American is at stake in this war, and they know we will prevail."

Bush is making a sell to a skeptical public. According to recent polls, a majority of Americans do not approve of his handling of the war.

"We need a strategy to win in Iraq or an exit strategy to leave," former Sen. Max Cleland of Georgia said in the Democratic radio address. "The present course will lead us to disaster. More of the same just means more precious blood spilled in the desert."

Cleland, who noted that he lost three limbs serving in Vietnam, ticked off numbers indicating this war's toll - nearly 2,000 service members killed, more than 15,000 wounded and some soldiers returning for their third tour in Iraq. "Iraq is still not secure and we don't have the forces there to make it secure," he said.

Dozens of the disillusioned remain outside his ranch as their inspiration, grieved mother Cindy Sheehan, left to tend to her hospitalized mother in her home state of California. Sheehan started the protests by traveling to Crawford to ask Bush why her soldier son, Casey, had to die in what she calls a senseless war.

'Must Finish'

Although he didn't mention him specifically, Bush spoke of the soldiers who have died. "We offer their families our heartfelt condolences and prayers," he said.

"Now we must finish the task that our troops have give

Anti-Semite accuses Sheehan of anti-Semitism

What's also outrageous is that someone like Liddy would have the nerve to accuse someone else of being anti-Semitic.

In a November, 2004 interview, Liddy reportedly called Hitler his first political hero and claimed Hitler 'made me feel a strength inside I had never known before... Hitler's sheer animal confidence and power of will [entranced me]. He sent an electric current through my body.'"

CALLER: It hurts me that she's sending the message that it seems like her son died for nothing. He didn't die for nothing. He died in the United States Armed Forces. There's nothing more honorable than that. These kids volunteered. They were not yanked from their cradle by an evil government to send them someplace they didn't want to go. My son knew on September 12th he was going over. My son knew what was in store for him, and my son stepped up to the plate. The caller you had on Monday, he was talking about, "Gee, how come these senators' kids aren't volunteering if the war is so great?" We're not going to talk about if the war is so great, let's talk about these kids who are great who stepped up to the plate and said, "You know what, I need to do something about this.

Blaming the Antiwar Messengers

Right now, the pro-war propaganda arsenal of the world’s only superpower is drawing a bead on Cindy Sheehan, who now symbolizes the USA’s antiwar grief. She is a moving target, very difficult to hit. But right-wing media sharpshooters are sure to keep trying.
The Bush administration’s top officials must be counting the days until the end of the presidential vacation brings to a close the Crawford standoff between Camp Casey and Camp Carnage. But media assaults on Cindy Sheehan are just in early stages.

Radio Address of President Bush to the Nation
Saturday August 20, 10:06 am ET

http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050820/dcsa003.html?.v=8

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is the radio address of President Bush to the nation:

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. In a few weeks, our country will mark the four-year anniversary of the attacks of September the 11th, 2001. On that day, we learned that vast oceans and friendly neighbors no longer protect us from those who wish to harm our people. And since that day, we have taken the fight to the enemy.

We have combated terrorists on the home front by disrupting terror cells and their financial support networks. We're fighting the terrorists in Afghanistan, Iraq, and around the world, striking them in foreign lands before they can attack us here at home. And we're spreading the hope of freedom across the broader Middle East. By advancing the cause of liberty in a troubled region, we are bringing security to our own citizens and laying the foundations of peace for our children and grandchildren.

In this war, our nation depends on the courage of those who wear the uniform. During the coming weeks, I will meet with some of the brave men and women who have been on the front lines in the war on terror. Next week in Idaho, I will visit with some of the fine citizen soldiers of the Idaho National Guard. I will also see the men and women of the Mountain Home Air Force Base who played a leading role in the air campaign in Afghanistan after the September the 11th attacks. I will thank all of them for their service in the war on terror and I will thank the families who make their essential work possible.

Our troops know that they're fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere to protect their fellow Americans from a savage enemy. They know that if we do not confront these evil men abroad, we will have to face them one day in our own cities and streets, and they know that the safety and security of every American is at stake in this war, and they know we will prevail.

Next week, in Utah, I will also address the Veterans of Foreign

More Drugs For Rush!

So, we kill hundreds of thousands of them, and 1800 of ours, with no end in sight so they could vote in January-- to not have democracy.

Iraqi General says US troops shot him

An Iraqi general who commands the country's border defence force was shot and wounded while driving in Baghdad late on Saturday and accused U.S. troops of firing on his car, police and hospital sources said.

At least that's what it looks like to me.

>>ot the getting the outcome of the election that would make Cathy most happy..

more to the point, I'm sure it didn't thrill Bush either. They basically voted to say Fuck You to America. Their choice of course, and I don't blame them at all. It was deserved. But why did we have to lose so many of our kids to get told to bugger off?

I'm still waiting to hear you justify the deaths of our kids and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives, just to be told democracy isn't wanted.

I never said I was disappointed in the outcome of their election, I never said they didn't have the right to an election, I never said they must think our way or else...I just don't think we needed to kill off so many people to achieve....nothing. If they wanted to have an election we disagreed with, we didn't need to go there and die, now, did we?

You know SecDefs are never stupid.

How much panic do you think you would be if you woke up one day...and North was Jeb Bush's running mate.

I think the country might riot.

Bush links Iraq war with Sept. 11 attacks
President says troops fighting to protect Americans from terrorism

CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush said Saturday U.S. troops in Iraq were fighting to protect Americans at home from terrorism like the Sept. 11 attacks four years ago.

"Our troops know that they're fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere to protect their fellow Americans from a savage enemy," Bush said in his weekly radio address.

Running from Cindy? Campaigning to cover his losses? Nothing to worry about at all...nope...You can campaingn you just can't govern.

Bush Begins 5-Day Push to Defend Iraq War

The protesters at "Camp Casey" can claim some victory for forcing Bush to talk so extensively about the military deaths when he'd rather focus on indictors of progress in Iraq. The campers' call to bring the troops home now dominated news coverage out of Crawford this week while Bush stayed on his ranch with no public events.

>>Good luck with that end of world as we know it thing..

so you're not as worried about Iran nuking us as you were last night? I'm glad to hear it.

if you wait until the thrust hits to parry you're already dead.

Recently Rush Limbaugh made the following comment on his daily radio show in regards to Cindy Sheehan, mother of fallen soldier, Casey Sheehan. "Her story is nothing more than forged documents. There's nothing about it that's real, including the mainstream media's glomming onto it. It's not real. It's nothing more than an attempt. It's the latest effort made by the coordinated left."

I found this lie so egregious, that it prompted me to start an online petition asking that Rush Limbaugh apologize to Cindy Sheehan and her son, Casey.

Please visit the following URL if you'd like to join me in signing this petition. http://www.petitiononline.com/CSCS1234/petition.html

Please also forward this URL to all friends and family that sympathize with Cindy.

Thanks!

War Dog used to be fun. But now he keeps ringing my bell.

Isn't it enough...to just look around once in a while...

And say there's nothing tangible that I can taste, smell, hear, touch, or see...that's God?

Why is it so important to follow somebody else's interpretation of the Holy Bible...

When it's so obvious it's the oil and greed.

Not only that. You aren't just calling the Prez stoopid.

He's hoping you will be gullible enough to forget...to check his bank statement. Because it's not about the money.

It's about the Holy War.

And the Christian killing Moslems. And about hating brown people, but only the ones they say...

Is this America?

Seriously.

Five days they were saying he was going to give the "stay the course" nautical speech.

Are you stupid?

Are you too free?

Are you afraid to stand up to a dictatorship after what we saw in World War II?

Watch him. Watch what he says. Sometimes it runs through your head...the only solution might be assassination. I think he's got a messiah complex.

The President is a Joke

Late-Night Jokes About Bush's Record-Setting 2005 Vacation

"President Bush is going on his annual vacation. The White House says he goes to his Texas Ranch to unwind. I'm thinking, when does he wind?" --David Letterman

"As you know, President Bush is taking 5 weeks off. It's like he's still in the National Guard." --Jay Leno

"It turns out President Bush can run again in the next election. Now I know you're only supposed to be allowed two terms, but the Supreme Court said if you count his vacation time, he's barely served one." --Jay Leno

"President Bush is on a five-week vacation. How many folks get five weeks off a year? You know, if I want five weeks off I have to have open heart surgery, for God's sake." --David Letterman

Hi CenzosMom, Rush is dealing with his lie. He's denying he ever said it. That's good enough for the Dittoidiots, so don't expect anything better from him.

But count on me to sign it. Anything to embarrass him for his idiocy.

ok, just did it. Thanks for bringing it here.

How many social security checks is that?

The Trillion-Dollar War

If the American military presence in Iraq and Afghanistan lasts another five years, the total cost of the war could stretch to more than $1.3 trillion.

How many republicans thought that they were voting for "fiscal conservatism"?

Alaska's Road to Nowhere

Alaska is on course to get $300 million from the federal government to build a road to nowhere.

President Bush continues to suggest that if we don't fight the terrorists in Iraq (a war he started) that we will have to fight them here in the US. Well, mr. president, the hypocracy of your argument is found in the fact that the Russians, Chinese, Europeans, Australians, and all the othe countries around the globe are fighting against your pathetic foriegn policies ... you refuse to protect our borders, and then you forget that the entire world can just simply walk into the US because of your ridiculous ingorant lying excuses for more war! When will you be satisfied my Bush, after you have conquered the world?

The terrorists may have won.

They just have might.

It's so half ass backwards now I don't know what to think. I'd rather hear Edwards speak than Kerry though.

John just looks beat down by it all.

I mean this is all opinion...

It's not revealing secrets and shit.

What you got...is basically a small group trying to threaten a big group. So these modern day versions of the Nazi fascists...who go by the titles conservative or Republican or some nonsense like that...

These guys don't number enough to control...so that's been their big thing.

Changing the Constitution.

Changing over 200 years of proven democracy.

So what you have to do is aim for the people, not them.

That's what I've been doing the past two weeks.

It's what makes me dangerous. I'm the majority.

So here's what I think.

When Bush calls himself God.

Kill him.

Bush can't grieve. He can't feel. He can't admit to any mistakes because he doesn't believe that he can make any.

A Historical Footnote

Cindy Sheehan represents only a small part of America’s greater tragedy in Iraq.

Any other politician who had a Gold Star mother in his driveway would get the cameras rolling, give her a big hug and gain points for compassion. Instead of doing what should come naturally to a democratic leader, President George W. Bush deepened the crisis enveloping his presidency by arrogantly refusing to grant Cindy Sheehan an audience. He may have missed that opportunity for good now that Sheehan has rushed to California to see about her ailing mother.

so in the end...all you need to do is control the House, create a media to carry your ideas and make fun of your opponents, and the rest will fall into place.

Bush is going to destroy us all for that DAMN oil in the ground ... where are the electric cars ??? I want to buy one !!!

Violence isn't something I want, it's what I'm left to do...when there's taxarion without representation.

The children being killed...are just an allegory of where you're priorities need to be.

Do the math.

Look at it from the perspective of numbers...not emotion.

It's oil, not terrorism. Too late to trust them now.

They are trying to change the Constitution. We still can stop them at the pass, boys.

Call it Heartless: Bush's Emotional Incapacities

Why the evacuation from Washington to Crawford? Well, his approval ratings are fast plummeting. Republican Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist turned his back on Bush and came out in favor of stem cell research. Members of President's cartel may be facing federal indictments over the leaking of a CIA operative. Iraq isn't looking so good, either - soldiers are getting blown up daily. A few of their bereaved parents are even camping outside his plush ranch demanding an explanation for their children's deaths. Indeed there isn't much news the Bush administration can feel good about.

Don't be frustrated.

They rue the day Democrats gain control again.

There are a lot of crooks in for a big surprise.

But first, everyone needs to open up themselves.

I say call and write your Congressmen.

Tell each and every single one of them...that George Bush is crazed.

He's a Jesus Freak.

"Maybe Bush needs a cocktail. Looks like the baby Jesus isn't doing it for him."

Then tell them to go back to Washington DC and...

...protect the country. Protect the people they represent, do their duty, earn those paychecks.

Becuase they are only making themselves rich.

That's the ultimatum.

No other way to put it.

Dual Disloyalty: Feith and the Occupations of Gaza and Iraq

He pushed hard for both. Others are paying the price in blood.

Feith is such a radical that he won't even refer to the West Bank as the West Bank — he uses the biblical names Judea and Samaria. And he doesn't even like to say "occupied territories," even though they are. In fact, our own government officially refers to them as "occupied" and freely uses the term "West Bank." Just look at the CIA map of Israel above, and you'll see that Gaza and the West Bank are separate from Israel, and each carries an asterisk.

Then Americans are going to want someone's head on a stick for making another Islamic Theocracy like Iran with American Blood and Taxpayer Money.

Rocky's call to protest Bush makes vets see red
Mayor's e-mail: 'Nothing radical,' supporters say

By Glen Warchol

The Salt Lake Tribune

Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson called for "the biggest demonstration this state has ever seen" to protest President Bush's appearance Monday before a national veterans convention.

"This administration has been disastrous to the country," Anderson said Friday. "If people could organize and speak out in an effective manner from the reddest state in the country, that would garner a lot of attention."

In an e-mail Wednesday to about 10 activist leaders, the maverick mayor of Utah's capital called for a diverse demonstration to greet Bush when he speaks to the Veterans of Foreign Wars at the Salt Palace Convention Center. The mayor plans to join the protesters.

Trade wars can lead to shooting wars

Within US policy circles, the rapid rise of China as a major force in the global economy is provoking a reconsideration of whether free trade is still in the US national interest.

WHY I AM BETTER THAN YOU IN MORE WAYS THAN YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY:

SOMETIMES PEOPLE ASK ME, "WHY ARE YOU BETTER THAN ME? I KNOW YOU ARE BETTER THAN ME, BUT WHY? HOW COME I CAN'T BE BETTER? I KNOW HOW TO MAKE POP-TARTS!" AND I TELL THEM, "BECAUSE I AM EL SERPENTO AND THAT IS THE LAW OF THE LAND AND THE LAW OF MY HAND... AND FIST." THEN THEY START TO UNDERSTAND ME. BUT I WILL WANT TO MAKE THINGS CLEAR ABOUT WHAT THINGS I AM BETTER THAN YOU WILL EVER BE NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO GET BETTER. BECAUSE BEING BETTER MEANS YOU CAN LEARN GOOD LIKE DOLPHIN.

I AM BETTER. YES. DO NOT TOUCH ME, IT WILL NOT MAKE YOU BETTER.

THINGS I AM BETTER:

-SWIMMING AND HOLDING BREATH

-EATING AND HOLDING BREATH

-HOLDING BREATH AND HOLDING THE BREATH INSIDE THAT VERY SAME BREATH

-CRIMES

-SHOWING MUSCLES TO THE LADIES

-SHOWING LADIES TO THE MUSCLES

-MAKING EVERYONE CRY BECAUSE THEY CANNOT HAVE ME OR BE LIKE ME OR BATHE IN MY SPIT.

-DISCOVERING NEW LANDS WHICH I CAN MAKE MORE AWESOME AND CRIME-FILLED SIMPLY BY STEPPING ON THEM

-I HAVE WEBBED FEET. THEY ARE BETTER TOO.

-DOCTORING

-FUNERAL DIRECTORING

-SINGING FOR BANDS WHO I KILL AFTER THE SHOW BECAUSE I DESERVE ALL THE MONEY FROM THAT NIGHT SINCE I HAVE ALL THE TALENT AND THE GOOD BREATHS

-I HELD MY BREATH THE ENTIRE TIME THAT I WROTE THIS LINE

-BEING BETTER

SO YOU SEE THAT IT IS CLEAR NOW. AND IF IT IS NOT CLEAR, IT IS NOT WATER. IT IS MILK, AND MILK COMES FROM THE SLOW COWS YOU SHOULD BE HAMMERING TO FREE THE WATER FROM INSIDE THEIR HEADS.

THEY ARE JUST LIKE A CACTUS BUT WITH LESS SPIKES.

OK IT TIME FOR ME TO GO DO MORE AWESOMES. I AM BETTER.

Secrets Of The Morgue: Baghdad's Body Count

Posted by: Nobody at August 20, 2005 05:14 PM

Thanks for the link.

I heard Robert Fisk interviewed on the BBC the other day. He described the scene in the morgue. The number of dead and how they were found - Hands tied behind their backs with bullets in their heads. He said their were death squads operating in Iraq and the number of Iraqi' being killed was staggering.

"We are not supposed to know that the Iraqi capital's death toll last month was only 700 short of the total American fatalities in Iraq since April of 2003. Of the dead, 963 were men - many with their hands bound, their eyes taped and bullets in their heads - and 137 women. The statistics are as shameful as they are horrifying. For these are the men and women we supposedly came to "liberate" - and about whose fate we do not care."

"The dead of Iraq - as they have from the beginning of our illegal invasion - were simply written out of the script. Officially they do not exist."

"The writing of the new constitution - or the failure to complete it - now occupies the time of Western diplomats and journalists. The dead, it seems, do not count."

Leave It To Bush

[...O]n July 15, a panel of federal appellate court judges upheld Bush's sovereign right to dispose of "enemy combatants" any way he pleases, the Washington Post reports. In a chilling decision, the judges ruled that the Commander's arbitrarily designated "enemies" are non-persons: neither the Geneva Conventions nor American military and domestic law apply to such garbage. Bush is now free to subject anyone he likes to the "military tribunal" system he has concocted - a brutal sham that some top retired military officials have denounced as a "kangaroo court" that will be used by tyrants around the world to "hide their oppression under U.S. precedent."

One of the kowtowing jurists on the appeals panel was none other than John G. Roberts. Four days after he affirmed Bush's autocratic powers, Roberts was duly awarded with a nomination to the Supreme Court. Now he will be sitting in final judgment on this case - and any other challenges to Bush's peremptory commands. This is what is known, in the tyrant trade, as "a safe pair of hands."

The ruling by Roberts and his fellow Republican jurists ignores the fact that the Geneva Conventions - which lay down strict guidelines for the handling of any person detained by military forces, regardless of the captive's status - have been incorporated into the U.S. legal code, as Deep Blade points out. They cannot be abrogated by presidential fiat. And anyone who commits a "grave breach" of the Conventions - by facilitating the killing, torture or inhuman treatment of detainees (e.g., stripping them of all legal status and subjecting them to rigged tribunals) - is subject to the death penalty under American law.

Just what we need, another Scalia!

All the lipstick in DC won't dress up this pig. Roberts is nothing but a Gonzales (the AG) with a white man's vitae.

The erstwhile Pentagon official is a key player in not only the disastrous occupation of Iraq but in trying to make sure Israel clung to the disastrous occupation of Gaza.

Feith is such a radical that he won't even refer to the West Bank as the West Bank — he uses the biblical names Judea and Samaria. And he doesn't even like to say "occupied territories," even though they are. In fact, our own government officially refers to them as "occupied" and freely uses the term "West Bank." Just look at the CIA map of Israel above, and you'll see that Gaza and the West Bank are separate from Israel, and each carries an asterisk.

But there's no asterisk attached to Feith's version of Israel. The son of a founder of Likud, he has pursued a radical Zionist policy at the expense of Israel's own Jews, a majority of whom don't favor the settlers.

CELTICALISTICALMAN IS NOT FOOLED BY NO DEAD KIDS! HE IS A MANNY-MAN AND KNOWS THAT CINDY IS A BIG FAKER!

Do you think merchants would try to gas you?

I mean...

Y'know. Like shoot you with an air compressed blast...too small to be noticable at first...but later.

You were poisoned by Nazi's in their store.

Out of all your merchants...

Which one do you think are possible candidates for nazis?

I'm kinda thinking Blockbuster.

A fools bet.

"A market economy is a feeble weakling compared with a wartime command economy. That a war in Asia would relocate manufacturing jobs back to the United States in large scale to get the US economy moving again must have occurred to the neo-con warriors who have been controlling US policy since 2000. The hawks in this group are betting that China's nuclear deterrence against attacks from the US can be neutralized by the US strategic defense initiative (SDI), and that the US mainland will again be safe from attack."

Think about it, man.

Where else could the Nazis methodically single you out.

I was looking at their ceiling.

It's got an open space for the lights on their displays...

But the intakes are huge.

Like an entire ceiling panel.

It wouldn't be too hard to put a camera in there...but an air nozzle?

The thing would have to be almost straight down...so my bet it's under the one near the crossroad...furthest away from the check out counter.

You will NOT mutate into a transtemporal polymorphic protoplasm.

You WILL fucking DIE. Radiation, germs, starvation, exposure, bullets, chemical weapons, take your pick, but if you don't die, you'll spend the rest of your days either working your ass off for 800 calories a day, or scavenging for food anywhere you can find it. Maybe you'll hide in the woods and survive, maybe you'll run a farm that has to be protected by squads of armed guards.

TRUST the JIK on this... it would be MUCH EASIER to STOP this crap BEFORE it goes too far. Really.

And no, it hasn't gone too far yet, you can tell because your neighbors aren't pulling a "Night of The Living Dead" move on your pantry right about now.

Hmm. That's a good one.

I doubt it's biological or radiological.

It would have to dissipate, like a drug.

It's probably some variant of an argon gas. Designed to attack your nervous or blood system.

Not impressed really.

Anybody with a pistol driving down the road can shoot me.

In an Associated Press interview, Gen. Peter Schoomaker said the Army is prepared for the "worst case" in terms of the required level of troops in Iraq. He said the number could be adjusted lower if called for by slowing the force rotation or by shortening tours for soldiers.

Army Planning for 4 More Years in Iraq

WASHINGTON

The Army is planning for the possibility of keeping the current number of soldiers in Iraq _ well over 100,000 _ for four more years, the Army's top general said Saturday.

In an Associated Press interview, Gen. Peter Schoomaker said the Army is prepared for the "worst case" in terms of the required level of troops in Iraq. He said the number could be adjusted lower if called for by slowing the force rotation or by shortening tours for soldiers.

Schoomaker said commanders in Iraq and others who are in the chain of command will decide how many troops will be needed next year and beyond. His responsibility is to provide them, trained and equipped.

About 138,000 U.S. troops, including about 25,000 Marines, are now in Iraq.

"We are now into '07-'09 in our planning," Schoomaker said, having completed work on the set of combat and support units that will be rotated into Iraq over the coming year for 12-month tours of duty.

oops, looks like here they are

The cannon erected on his farm near Aspen, Colorado, has been designed by Depp, who portrayed Thompson at his drug-consuming height in the 1998 film Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, based on Thompson’s cult book.

It is believed to be anchored inside a 54ft-high sculpture in the shape of a “gonzo” fist, Thompson’s two-thumbed personal insignia representing the briefly fashionable style of “gonzo” reporting that focused primarily on the writer’s subjective experiences.

The device is said to stand on a 100ft-high dagger-shaped platform to ensure that Thompson’s ashes, packed inside 34 shells, reach at least 500ft in the air before exploding in bright colours and then drifting across his beloved Owl Farm and the mountain slopes. Michael Cleverly, a friend and neighbour, said: “It’ll go straight up. It’ll just be taken by the wind.”

The writer’s widow, Anita Thompson, 32, has broken only one of her husband’s final commands. Still pinned to the refrigerator door in their kitchen, where he killed himself on February 20, is a note which reads: “Never call 911 [the emergency services]. Never. This means You. HST.”

"There has been serious damage and we still can't get into all of the oil fields," a company spokesman said.

DETROIT (AP) — Braylon Edwards outjumped a defender and snatched the football for a go-ahead touchdown in his professional debut.

The 7-yard score with 54 seconds left lifted the Cleveland Browns to a 21-13 victory against the Detroit Lions on Saturday.

"It felt just like Michigan State," said the former Michigan star, who caught three TD passes in a triple-overtime win last year over the Spartans.

On fourth-and-7, rookie Charlie Frye, late of the University of Akron, lofted a pass to Edwards in the corner of the end zone and the No. 3 pick in the draft rose over Michael Echols, caught the ball and got both feet in bounds.

"I couldn't have drawn it up any better," said Edwards, who was playing his hometown and 45 miles from his college.

No aspect of national sovereignty or international law is more controversial than the question of the legitimacy of preemptive war for self-defense.

Dead Soldier's Dad Finds No Enemy in Iraq

Fernando Suarez del Solar is a busy man. He is busy opening boxes, counting pills, counting bandages; he is busy checking everything in the boxes that come addressed to him from all over the United States.

"The last time I went to Iraq," he adds, "the Pentagon called up another California Senator, Sen Javier Vincera who was supporting me, to tell him to tell me that I would not be welcome in Iraq," and if he did go, they would not assure his safety.

Last year, as part of his voyage to see where his son died, Suarez visited ordinary Iraqis and children's hospitals. It was an experience he found profoundly moving, one that inspired him to return to help Iraqi children.

"The Iraqi people were so good to me, so beautiful."

In response, Suarez called a press conference to question the Pentagon's motives. "I said, 'whatever happens, Bush is responsible'," he recalls. The Pentagon backed down and declared him welcome.

At the hospitals he saw youngsters dying from the lack of medicine and learned that a number of others had been killed picking up unexploded cluster bombs or when trying to hand them in to U.S. soldiers.

The bombs look like tennis balls or beer cans, Suarez explains. And when the children try to give them to U.S. soldiers, they are shot on the spot -- military orders.

When the emphasis is on competition it's not a good idea...When it's on cooperation it's a better idea...There are no absolutes and there are simply too many bad coaches...

Band is really good for teaching teamwork and there are better forms of sports than those that tear up young bodies before they're even grown...

One of my favorite neighbor kids has a bum knee and a bad back from playing football...he's only 15 and already screwed.

This story has it all, folks. A 44-year-old Ukrainian (which means he's just about reached the limit of his average life expectancy), from a Podmoskovie village, witnessed schoolyard torture and skeletons.

This 44-year-old asshole is said to have been a lifelong loser back in the Ukraine, which kind of made him redundant. He moved to the land of opportunity. Specifically, the Podmoskovie village of Slatykovka in the Balashikhinsky district. What kind of opportunity could possibly await him there, you ask? Why, a porn opportunity, fool!

First he found work as a construction worker. While casing the village's known riches of murder victims, he managed to nab two women and lock them in a school building where he "basically turned the women into his sex slaves."

Sometime during the winter, he gave one of the women a 500 ruble note to a load of pure vodka, but the bitch spent it all on herself. The punishment was swift and brutal... he beat her to death. The next day, he took care of his other slave. He beat her mercilessly, broke her ribs, cut off her cunt and threw her out, into the snow.

He tried hiding the other corpse but was spotted by his neighbor. The asshole turned stuffed the corpse underneath some planks beneath the first floor. Amazingly, the neighbor didn't report what he'd seen until later, when he was arrested by the pigs for having sex with a dwarf pony in the village square. That's when he spilled the beans on this dick.

Only a good long time later, after the bodies had decayed into skeletons, was the asshole caught.

Seems like a goddamn waste of a pair of perfectly good slaves to us.

Funny, War Dog claims he didn't understand what I was saying today, but somehow understands this incoherant babble:

"The best place for the facts to be done is by somebody who's spending time investigating it." óGeorge W. Bush, on the probe into how CIA agent Valerie Plame's identity was leaked, Washington D.C., July 18, 2005

"I'm looking forward to a good night's sleep on the soil of a friend." óGeorge W. Bush, on visiting Denmark, Washington D.C., June 29, 2005

"I was going to say he's a piece of work, but that might not translate too well. Is that all right, if I call you a 'piece of work'?" óGeorge W. Bush to Jean-Claude Juncker, prime minister of Luxembourg, Washington, D.C., June 20, 2005

"The relations with, uhh ó Europe are important relations, and they've, uhh ó because, we do share values. And, they're universal values, they're not American values or, you know ó European values, they're universal values. And those values ó uhh ó being universal, ought to be applied everywhere." óGeorge W. Bush, at a press conference with European Union dignitaries, Washington, D.C., June 20, 2005
"You see, not only did the attacks help accelerate a recession, the attacks reminded us that we are at war." óGeorge W. Bush, on the Sept. 11 attacks, Washington, D.C., June 8, 2005

"And the second way to defeat the terrorists is to spread freedom. You see, the best way to defeat a society that is ó doesn't have hope, a society where people become so angry they're willing to become suiciders, is to spread freedom, is to spread democracy." óGeorge W. Bush, Washington, D.C., June 8, 2005

Bush Begins 5-Day Push to Defend Iraq War

So much for that vacation!

It seemed like to me they based some of their decisions on the word of ó and the allegations ó by people who were held in detention, people who hate America, people that had been trained in some instances to disassemble ó that means not tell the truth." óGeorge W. Bush, on an Amnesty International report on prisoner abuse at Guantanamo Bay, Washington, D.C., May 31, 2005

no George, this is what it means:

To take apart: disassemble a toaster.
v.intr.
1. To come apart: The unit disassembles easily.
2. To break up in random fashion: The spectators began to disassemble.

"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." óGeorge W. Bush, Greece, N.Y., May 24, 2005

Those of you looking for something different might be amused by an album known as The Grand Wazoo -- and others wanting a mighty slab of rocktacular jazzication will also be impressed.

Inside the liner notes, we're privy to a tale cooked up by FZ.

In a pseudo-Roman society, a ruler named Cletus-Awreetus-Awrightus oversees a society of musicians who also comprise an army. Non-musical "questions" hide in the catacombs. "Questions" are sacrificed in the arena unless they demonstrate some rhythmic ability. At other times, the army battles the "Mediocrates of Pedestrium," an opposing civilization. The Awreetus army consists of guitarists, percussionists, and horns. The "MOP" forces mostly consist of strings and assorted others, not to mention 5,000 untalented, androgynous vocalists who "do hot moves with the mike wire" while churning out accessible tunes...

Hi Catsea,

I not here much longer. I have to start looking for a house to buy.

Prices have gotten a wee bit more than we had hoped. It is not going to come easy.

Hey Missy Anne,
I lived in Portland the first 8 years of my life. I'd move there in a heartbeat if we ever unstick ourselves from this place. I hope you love it there!

The worldly wise schoolma'am, 'Miss Assmore' and her 'sister give Bill a right roll in the hay. Finally 'Tanya' wriggles 'till she's ready to pee over Bill on the stairs!

A couple of 'bikers, knob gobbling and pussy eating, they enjoy every fucking minute of their session. Pussy farts and strawberry flavoured dick-gel and all.

Duos, four on one, anal, interracial, shaved/hairy pussy, long lips, cross/role playing, female piss, light bondage, handcuffs, fetish costume, knob gobbling, pussy eating close-ups, flavoured dick gel, 69er, anal dildo, vibrator, banana, cum shots.

Whip it right out and stuff it into their faces, 'cause these dirty dick suckers love to gargle choad and gag on hot, creamy nut twenty-four seven. Sultry cock swallowers perform death-defying feats of knob gobbling magic, eager to prove their latent lust for full-fledged, shy and subservient, prick worshiping throat fucking. Tell 'em what you expect them to do, and watch 'em go to work on cleaning out your pipes.

You get some pretty vulgar emails, phlegm merchant.

See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." óGeorge W. Bush, Greece, N.Y., May 24, 2005

Cosponsors of Resolution of Inquiry Now Up to 48

http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/

There are now 48 co-sponsors of H Res 375. The four latest are Congressmen Barney Frank, Elijah Cummins, Rush Holt, and Gregory Meeks.

The Resolution will likely be voted on in the House International Relations Committee between Sept. 6 and Sept. 16. The more congress members who co-sponsor, the more likely some committee members are to both vote Yes and engage in a serious debate in the committee.

The aggression is there...at least symbolically, but the worst that happens is that someone is hit with a ping pong ball.

And if the competitor relies on aggression alone, her lack of patience and unwillingness to use the "soft drop" will be her undoing.

There is no greater hand/eye sport though many are its equal. The equipment is cheap (even the really good stuff).

A certain War Loving troll was asking about "outcomes" for the Cindy Sheehan story, I guess here's one for him.

>>"Bush Begins 5-Day Push to Defend Iraq War"

A middle aged lady wants to ask him a question, and and after hiding from her for more than 2 weeks, he now has to back-peddle for 5 days to disseminate (not disassemble) his propaganda.

Time he could have spent falling off his bike, choking on a pretzel, or massacring the English language.

I'd definitely say there's an outcome for you.

Soldier 'instructed' to abuse Abu Ghraib prisoners

One of the US soldiers convicted of mistreating prisoners at Baghdad's Abu Ghraib prison says his superiors made it clear those incarcerated were to be abused. Sergeant Javal Davis was sentenced to six months in jail after admitting to having deliberately stepped on the hands and feet of handcuffed prisoners.

In an interview aired on Channel 7, Sgt Davis said he was instructed to make life as unpleasant as possible for those he was guarding. "I was left with an open door to pretty much almost do whatever I want, you know like 'hey, make sure this guy has a bad night you know' or 'make sure this guy gets the treatment'," he said. Sgt Davis says he found some of the things he was asked to do distressing.

"For example, the nakedness, the hooding, the handcuffing of the detainees in compromising positions, like handcuffed behind their back in an uncomfortable way or handcuffed to the bar door door or something," he said.He says he asked that orders he was given to abuse prisoners be put in writing.But despite repeated requests, his superiors never agreed to do so.

Sgt Davis was a military policeman who worked as a guard at Abu Ghraib prison for three months in late 2003. The pictures of the mistreatment by the guards, which included sexual humiliation, sparked international outrage.

When I was in the V.I., my house had a very large concrete patio area outside of the front door. It is elevated from the ground and has a very low rock wall capped with concrete that keeps people from tumbling over the side.

The wall also serves as a seat for as many as twenty-five people. The Caribbean sea was across the street. There was nearly no traffic because I lived near the end of the island.

We had two ping-pong tables on wheels. They were the fold-up type so that they could be stored against a wall.

Every Saturday night was ping-pong night. No one arrived before 9 p.m. Most of the people arrived after ten. The already-inebriated-but-not-ready-to-go-home-yet arrived from midnight to one.

Some people arrived to get high and socialize and spectate. Others arrived to drink and socialize and spectate. Still others arrived stone-cold sober and ready to play a serious game of table tennis.

Occasionally, a Puerto Rican in his fifties (who worked for the Navy under a security clearance) arrived. He was on a table-tennis team out of Rosy Roads. Our stoned, drunken Saturday night game was on his itinerary when he was on-island.

Sometimes we played until dawn.

It was heaven.

hmmm, she must still have dial-up, though.

Howl - Allen Ginsberg

http://www.rooknet.com/beatpage/writers/ginsberg.html

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night,
who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats
floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz,
who bared their brains to Heaven under the El and saw Mohammedan angels staggering on tene- ment roofs
illuminated,
who passed through universities with radiant cool eyes hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-light tragedy among the
scholars of war,
who were expelled from the academies for crazy & publishing obscene odes on the windows of the skull,
who cowered in unshaven rooms in underwear, burn- ing their money in wastebaskets and listening to the Terror
through the wall,
who got busted in their pubic beards returning through Laredo with a belt of marijuana for New York,
who ate fire in paint hotels or drank turpentine in Paradise Alley, death, or purgatoried their torsos night after night
with dreams, with drugs, with waking nightmares, al- cohol and cock and endless balls,
incomparable blind; streets of shuddering cloud and lightning in the mind leaping toward poles of Canada &
Paterson, illuminating all the mo- tionless world of Time between,
Peyote solidities of halls, backyard green tree cemetery dawns, wine drunkenness over the rooftops, storefront
boroughs of teahead joyride neon blinking traffic light, sun and moon and tree vibrations in the roaring winter dusks
of Brook- lyn, ashcan rantings and kind king light of mind,
who chained themselves to subways for the endless ride from Battery to holy Bronx on benzedrine until the noise of
wheels and children brought them down shuddering mouth-wracked and battered bleak of brain all drained of
brilliance

Evening.

Just got done watching Alone in the Dark.

Pretty good action in that one.

The story was a little convuluted...sorta like X-files meets those creatures from Resident Evil.

oh Meg, I'm jealous, my husband doesn't want me to get a kitty...

;-(

ooops...have to go,

see y'all later~

Well now I'm going to watch Cursed.

It's got werewolves.

Alone in the Dark needed edited a little better, but the stunts were good. CGI not too bad. Good actors.

I think the director dropped the ball on that one. Seemed like the story got muddled down in it's own story boards. Lots of details and pushed dialogue.

This one has Wes Craven involved, so it should be o.k.

Plus it's a Weinstein produced Dimension film.

Reality Check Joke

An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates.

St. Peter checks his dossier and says, "Ah, you're an engineer -- you're in the wrong place." So, the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in. Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell, and starts designing and building improvements. After awhile, they've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer is a pretty popular guy.

One day, God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with a sneer, "So, how's it going down there in hell?"

Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next."

God replies, "What??? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake -- he should never have gotten down there; send him up here."

Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff, and I'm keeping him."

God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."

Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right. And just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?"

Naw...Bush is Magog

In 1966, a young Marine took a reel-to-reel tape recorder with him into the Vietnam War. For two months, until he was killed in action, Michael Baronowski made tapes of his friends, of life in foxholes, of combat. And he sent those audio letters home to his family in Norristown, Pennsylvania. 34 years later, through our Quest for Sound, his comrade Tim Duffie brought those tapes to Lost & Found Sound.

You are so close to the truth that it pains me.

I was a General Contractor at the time. My favorite electrician did a lot of work for the Navy and its contractors (technicians working for the Allied Forces Weapons Training Facility...which is an elaborate name for a calibrating facility that monitored war games involving U.S. and ally subs, frigates, other war ships, P-3's, S-3's, sonobouys and Mark V torpedos).

The electrician "acquired" some temporary lighting after the Navy had no more use for it. It was exactly like the strings of lights found over a used car lot or a cruise ship...a bulb every foot or so.

The lights served to illuminate the patio and the front of the house like a surgical theatre.

Sometimes, when a cruise ship set sail from St. Croix to San Juan (which was directly out to sea from my house), it stalled for time, barely making headway. It had no intention to arrive in San Juan before the following dawn, so it would lay, lit like a skyscraper, directly out of our front door.

We often mused, as we admired it, that there might be passengers at-the-rail wondering what the hell the grandly-lit speck was back on the island.

(By the way: War ships change their appearance at night for obvious reasons. Their best disguise is to light-up like a cruise ship using the same strings of lights that cruise ships use...and that we ping-pongers used as well.)

Excellent site! thanks. going to have to promote this one.

One of the litter nearly died today. I think he was dehydrated. And its so hot (its been in the 100s lately)

I had to take him to the animal emergency clinic and surrender him. They said they'd see what they could do. My mom told me that if he was just dehydrated it was reasonably easy to treat. He kitty had that once and he went from being almost dead, limp, scary, to running around like a kitten (the car was 25 at the time). All they did was give him a shot.

i like the image of the woman in her make-up holding the "next time vacation in Iraq" sign ... she doesn't look like your average protestor, which means people who don't usually protest are more likely to stop and look because they can identify with her.

Bush tests his mettle in bike ride with Armstrong

Aug 20, 4:27 PM (ET)

By Caren Bohan

CRAWFORD, Texas (Reuters) - President George W. Bush, an avid mountain biker, got a chance to test his mettle against cycling superstar Lance Armstrong on Saturday.

The seven-time Tour de France champion joined the president for a two-hour, 17-mile trek through the canyons and river-crossings of Bush's 1,600-acre Texas ranch.

Armstrong, a fellow Texan and Bush friend who nonetheless disagrees with the president on the Iraq war, called it a "dream scenario" to cycle with the president.

While many Americans wonder what attracts Bush to the Prairie Chapel ranch, where is he spending the month of August, Armstrong said he thought the biking opportunities were a big draw.

"He rides his mountain bike fanatically," Armstrong said in a recent interview with ABC's This Week. "It might be the mountain bike trails he has there."

Armstrong, 33, called Bush "one competitive dude," but said in the ABC interview he had no doubt he could outpace Bush, even though trails can be challenging for road cyclists unaccustomed to rough, rocky terrain.

"He's a good rider," Bush was said to have remarked about Armstrong after the ride, which featured only one 10-minute break to admire a waterfall on the property.

Hypocrites and Liars

I got an email the other day and it said, "Cindy if you didn't use so much profanity ... there's people on the fence that get offended.
And you know what I said? "You know what? You know what, god damn it? How in the world is anybody still sitting on that fence?

If you fall on the side that is pro-George and pro-war, you get your ass over to Iraq, and take the place of somebody who wants to come home. And if you fall on the side that is against this war and against George Bush, stand up and speak out.

She is not in "loony" mode. When she initially spoke to Bush, he was insensitive, indifferent, and callous to her. Cindy said Bush was acting like he was at a party, not realizing that there were grieving families around. And Bush kept referring to her as "Mom" during the meeting (probably his BS nicknaming shit again)....

A heartless, nihilistic prick who doesn't feel a damn thing for anyone or anything (and that goes for you too, War Dog. Bush hates friends and foes alike)....

But don't ride too close to him..

He might reach out and grap you if he falls..

Joan Baez to be at Camp Casey

CINDY SHEEHAN couldn't have picked a more apt date to begin the vigil that ambushed a president: Aug. 6 was the fourth anniversary of that fateful 2001 Crawford vacation day when George W. Bush responded to an intelligence briefing titled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States" by going fishing. On this Aug. 6 the president was no less determined to shrug off bad news. Though 14 marine reservists had been killed days earlier by a roadside bomb in Haditha, his national radio address that morning made no mention of Iraq. Once again Mr. Bush was in his bubble, ensuring that he wouldn't see Ms. Sheehan coming. So it goes with a president who hasn't foreseen any of the setbacks in the war he fabricated against an enemy who did not attack inside the United States in 2001.

SNIP

THIS summer in Crawford, the White House went to this playbook once too often. When Mr. Bush's motorcade left a grieving mother in the dust to speed on to a fund-raiser, that was one fat-cat party too far. The strategy of fighting a war without shared national sacrifice has at last backfired, just as the strategy of Swift Boating the war's critics has reached its Waterloo before Patrick Fitzgerald's grand jury in Washington. The 24/7 cable and Web attack dogs can keep on sliming Cindy Sheehan. The president can keep trying to ration the photos of flag-draped caskets. But this White House no longer has any more control over the insurgency at home than it does over the one in Iraq.

War Backers Start Camp Near Bush Ranch

A patriotic camp with a banner reading "God Bless Our President!" sprang up downtown Saturday, countering the anti-war demonstration started by a fallen soldier's mother near President Bush's ranch.

The camp is named "Fort Qualls" in memory of Marine Lance Cpl. Louis Wayne Qualls, 20, killed in Fallujah, Iraq, last fall. His father, Gary Qualls of Temple, said his 16-year-old son also wants to enlist, and he supports that decision.

Militias Wresting Control Across Iraq's North and South

Since the formation of a government this spring, Basra, Iraq's second-largest city, has witnessed dozens of assassinations, claiming members of the former ruling Baath Party, Sunni political leaders and officials of competing Shiite parties. Many have been carried out by uniformed men in police vehicles, according to political leaders and families of the victims, with some of the bullet-riddled bodies dumped at night in a trash-strewn parcel known as The Lot. The province's governor said in an interview that Shiite militias have penetrated the police force; an Iraqi official estimated that as many as 90 percent of officers were loyal to religious parties.

Across northern Iraq, Kurdish parties have employed a previously undisclosed network of at least five detention facilities to incarcerate hundreds of Sunni Arabs, Turkmens and other minorities abducted and secretly transferred from Mosul, Iraq's third-largest city, and from territories stretching to the Iranian border, according to political leaders and detainees' families. Nominally under the authority of the U.S.-backed Iraqi army, the militias have beaten up and threatened government officials and political leaders deemed to be working against Kurdish interests; one bloodied official was paraded through a town in a pickup truck, witnesses said.

"I don't see any difference between Saddam and the way the Kurds are running things here," said Nahrain Toma, who heads a human rights organization, Betnahrain, with offices in northern Iraq and has faced several death threats.

Toma said the tactics were eroding what remained of U.S. credibility as the militias operate under what many Iraqis view as the blessing of American and British forces. "Nobody wants anything to do with the Americans anymore," she said. "Why? Because they gave the power to the Kurds and to the Shiites. No one else has any rights."

Why isn't she worshipping me?"....

Helping Al Franken find a swindler

Michelle Malkin

August 17, 2005 Recommend to a friend

The Bronx-based Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club has been duped out of a reported $875,000 meant for poor children and elderly Alzheimer's patients. Evan Montvel-Cohen, the former chairman of the much-hyped liberal radio network Air America, is at the center of the erupting scandal. Air America radio host Al Franken, punctuating his discussion with nervous laughter, called Cohen a "crook" on his show last week and confessed to his left-wing audience that "I think he was robbing Peter to pay Paul."

Curiously, Air America has shown little interest in urging law enforcement officials to track down Cohen and hold him accountable for "robbing" -- Al's word, not mine -- an inner-city charity in the network's name. Why is that? Franken says the subject of massive theft from one of the largest nonprofit charities for underprivileged residents in New York City is "boring."

Yes. "Boring."

Even O.J. Simpson still fakes occasional interest in finding his wife's killer between his rounds of golf. Franken and Air America management, by contrast, seem unusually eager to sweep the entire financial scandal under the rug. Meanwhile, the Boys & Girls Club hasn't seen a dime of the bilked money repaid. Hearts aren't the only things that seem to be bleeding at Air America.

That is why I am volunteering to help Al Franken find the swindler and warn others about him. Free of charge. And I'm calling on my always curious, never bored, readers to fill the vacuum of outrage and join me in assisting The Search For Air America's Swindler.

Here are a few clues and some helpful information I've gathered for Franken to share with his fellow Air America sleuths:

Cohen reportedly told the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club executive committee last year that he needed money to cover medical expenses for himself and his father -- "a businessman in Asia," according to the New York Sun, who was said to be "gravely ill." There's just one small problem with the sob story about Cohen's dad, though. He has been dead since 1991.

According to Fran Magbual, a family friend

Hi WAR DOG! Howz the red kool aid today?

wardog believes everything is fine because everything is fine with him. Outside of him, nothing is important.

and his outcomes can change according to the direction of the wind and the setting of the vectors of his prognosticator sticks.

Helping Al Franken find a swindler

Michelle Malkin

According to Fran Magbual, a family friend of the Cohens whom I interviewed this week from Hawaii, Marvin Montvel-Cohen was an art and anthropology professor at the University of Guam. Magbual's father also taught at that school. Cohen's deceased father "was a simple, nice man. Well respected," Magbual told me. Another old friend of the Cohens, Gail Stone, also knew Cohen's father in Guam, where she grew up. "I'm glad he's not alive to see this," Stone told me by phone from Hawaii. Stone lived next to an accountant who worked with Cohen the younger at a Guam publication called Latte Magazine. According to Stone, her neighbor was fired after calling attention to financial irregularities involving Cohen.

Last week, I heard from another source in Hawaii -- a top executive at a large nonprofit in Honolulu who preferred to remain anonymous but wanted to send a strong message:

"Thought you should know that Evan Cohen, believe it or not, has relocated to Hawaii and had been applying for Development Director positions at local nonprofits. I was involved as a part of an interview team in which we interviewed him a couple of months ago . . . Fortunately, we did some research on him, as he was (obviously) not honest in his resume, and eliminated him from the process. . . . Chances are, he has already moved out of the state."

Al Franken, who specializes in blowing the whistle on "lies and the lying liars who tell them," could provide a helpful public service by passing this warning on to his vast audience of caring liberals. Cohen is out there somewhere. Both he and current Air America executives know a lot more about the liberal radio money pit than the public has been told -- and not just related to the victims at the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club.

But don't worry, Al. We're on the trail.

You can wake up now.

From a purely politically-motivated public relations viewpoint:

Most observers agree that Bush blew it.

While it is difficult to know when to hold 'em and when to show 'em, no one gives credit to a loser.

Bush could have disarmed this public relations threat in the early going but he did not and now he can not.

The years of pens holding dissenters at a sanitary distance are over.

To invent a Plan. The Plan justifies you to such a degree that you can no longer be held accountable, not even for the Plan itself. Just throw the stone and hide your hand. If there really were a Plan, there would be no failure. You never had Cecilia because the Archons made Annibale Canta-lamessa and Pio Bo unskilled even with the friendliest of the brass instruments. You fled the Canal gang because the Decans wanted to spare you for another holocaust. And the man with the scar has a talisman more powerful than yours.

A Plan, a guilty party. The dream of our species. An Deus sit. If He exists, it's His fault. The thing whose address I lost is not the End, it's the Beginning. Not the object to be possessed but the subject that possesses me. Misery loves company. Misery, company, too many dactyls. Nothing can dispel from my mind the most reassuring thought that this world is the creation of a shadowy god whose shadow I prolong. Faith leads to Absolute Optimism.

At War in Bomb Field, at Peace in Field of Dreams

"The only reason we got this nasty job chasing roadside bombs is because we are expendable," said Staff Sgt. Jeff Rayner from Nashville. "They need bodies, and we provide them. We clear the roads, but we're still treated like dirt here."

"A lot of soldiers are pretty tightly wound, so sports is perfect for letting them release their aggressive energy," said Sergeant Rayner, who is the noncommissioned officer in charge of Company A's night operations. "Sometimes you get some Iraqi in a vehicle trying to get by your convoy, and an American soldier who is too riled up shoots him. Then you have a problem. You have a dead local on your hands.

Walking out of the gym afterward, they looked up to see a wooden plaque commemorating their brigade's first casualty during this deployment, Sgt. First Class David J. Salie, 34, killed by a roadside bomb Feb. 14.

"Don't we always go by where he was killed?" Sergeant Martin asked. "Isn't that the big hole we go by next to that bridge, Harterson?"

"I think so," Sergeant Harterson said, shaking his head, then falling silent for a moment.

"Yeah, I think that's where the bomb got him."

you have to admit, your tale is a pretty tale one and you shouldn't be too surprised should people not believe it.

and besides, if your sitting on a reserve like you say, the more people who doubt it, the better.

In her book Leo Strauss and the American Right, Shadia Drury elaborates on Strauss' view that a political aristocracy must necessarily manipulate the masses for their own good. The Straussian worldview, according to Drury, contends that “perpetual deception of the citizens by those in power is critical because they need to be led, and they need strong rulers to tell them what's good for them.”

gimme a couple minutes meg...the camp didn't empty out when cindy left if that's what you're thinking.

Malloy is way too shrill for me, can't listen to him...while he's correct on everything, still too difficult....

In his “success in looking below the surface” and his “seeming unworldliness,” Leo Strauss resembles George Smiley, the wise but weary protagonist of the spy novels of John le Carré, boast Shulsky and Schmitt. “Indeed, the Iraq intelligence debacle swirling around Shulsky's OSP [Office of Special Plans] seems to fit some of le Carré's enduring revelations about the espionage business,” writes Washington Monthly's national security affairs correspondent Laura Rozen. However, she suggests that the two Straussian intelligence buffs further explore the Smiley-Strauss analogy. In le Carré's looking glass world of spies, observes Rozen, “intelligence is almost always politicized” and “the ideological assumptions and personal obsessions that drive people in the spook world can be as disabling as the secrets and disinformation with which their enemies set about to deceive them.”

Robert Pippen, chairman of the Committee on Social Thought at the University of Chicago, attributes Strauss with believing that “good statesmen must rely on an inner circle. The person who whispers in the ear of the king is more important than the king.” 5

Police arrest five anti-war protesters, two injured, in march

Police charged four people protesting the war in Iraq, two of whom suffered minor injuries from the police response, when 60 people disrupted traffic by marching the wrong way down a busy one-way street toward an Army recruiting station.

The Pittsburgh Organizing Group planned the Saturday morning demonstration. A spokesman for that group, David Meieran, accused police of responding with "inappropriate and excessive force."

Meieran claimed some protesters were pepper sprayed and Tasered; he said a 68-year-old woman who was not resisting was bitten by a police dog.

Climatologists Wager on Global Warming

"The Guardian is carrying a story about a $10,000 bet that a pair of Russian scientists have entered with British climate expert James Annan. According to the article, the Russians believe the world will be cooler in 10 years. "If the temperature drops Dr Annan will stump up the $10,000 (now equivalent to about £5,800) in 2018. If the Earth continues to warm, the money will go the other way."

six thousand spears to Sunlending,

Doom drove them on. Darkness took them, horse and horseman; hoofbeats afar

The Grey Order

The Grey Order are a renegade group of steamworkers and clockworkers who have fled from their various Guilds and worked together on some esoteric project. It appears to have worked, because the Grey Order now have their own brand of magic to control, imaginatively titled Grey Magic. By drawing the correct runes, they can produce a range of startling effects that it's hard to attribute to any regular Powers or Gods. They claim that the power behind this is protected in their homebase in Irgar, the clockwork Citadel of Steam, but none of them know (or at least, are allowed to admit to knowing) why exactly this power works; the secret is protected by the very highest-ranking members of their organisation.

Since they've gained this power, the Grey Order have swelled from a breakaway faction of weird engineers to a fairly reasonable power-group, with agents in a variety of locations. It's still not entirely clear what their agenda really is; their lips are characteristically sealed on it. Public figures in the Grey Order always dress in the Order's characteristic loose, drab grey robes; it's known (though they don't admit to it) that the Order also has a certain number of plain-clothes operators.

fact Grey Wizards see as ultimate goal in life to gather as much wisdom and knowledge as possible, and it is for this reason that they are so eager to see new places and learn new things to increase their intellect. Grey magic aids these wise men in their quest for knowledge, offering spells that improve speed and safety of travel. Consequently Grey Wizards have control over the forces of weather, and are capable of dispersing raging thunderstorms in few moments or bring to a calm a furious whirlwind. The proverbial wisdom of Grey Wizards causes them to be often sought by powerful men seeking reliable advise. The symbol of the Grey college is the Sword of Judgement, a reminder that seeking knowledge is not enough, for wisdom must be used to correct mistakes and to destroy faults.

Hagel, a Vietnam veteran, acknowledged the U.S. military presence was becoming harder and harder to justify. He believes Iraq faces a serious danger of civil war that would threaten Middle East stability, and said there is little Washington can do to avert this.

"We are seen as occupiers, we are targets. We have got to get out. I don't think we can sustain our current policy, nor do I think we should," he said at one stop.
. . .
"The mood is one of a certain sense of unsteadiness," he said. "I have sensed that since September 11, 2001. Our people have still not found an equilibrium and when you get these shocks, like gasoline at $2.50 a gallon and projecting natural gas costs doubling and tripling from what they paid last year, that further shakes them."

"I don't think there's panic, I don't think there's cynicism. I think there's this steady unsure sense about where is this all leading -- the constant daily reports on Iraq, our people being killed there, the money being spent there," he added.

Knight Ridder's Jonathan Landay reports on a new al Qaeda-funded Taliban emerging as a serious security threat in Afghanistan:

Instead of collapsing, however, the movement transformed itself. When the snows melted this past spring, the Taliban surprised Afghan and U.S. commanders with its renewed insurgency.

"We were all under the assumption that things in the country were under control," Defense Minister Wardak said.

Afghan and Western officials alleged that the escalating insurgency is being aided by Pakistan's powerful military intelligence agency, Inter-Services Intelligence.

Islamabad, they charged, seeks a weak government in Kabul that it can influence. It also wants to keep tensions boiling in Pashtun-dominated areas on the frontier to block a settlement of a decades-old border dispute that the new Afghan Parliament is expected to try to end, they said.

"Pakistan is ... fanning the flames," charged Latfullah Maashal, the chief spokesman of the Afghan Interior Ministry. "The Pakistanis ... do not want to see a strong, peaceful and prosperous country (Afghanistan)."

Islam will be "the main source" of Iraq's law and parliament will observe religious principles, negotiators said on Saturday after what some called a major turn in talks on the constitution and a shift in the U.S. position.

If agreed by Monday's parliamentary deadline, it would appear to be a major concession to Islamist leaders from the Shi'ite Muslim majority and sit uneasily with U.S. insistence on the primacy of democracy and human rights in the new Iraq.

Well, we're not really talking about human rights now are we? We're talking about women's rights, which are always negotiable.

The Swift Boating of Cindy Sheehan

When these setbacks happen in Iraq itself, the administration punts. But when they happen at home, there's a game plan. Once Ms. Sheehan could no longer be ignored, the Swift Boating began. Character assassination is the Karl Rove tactic of choice, eagerly mimicked by his media surrogates, whenever the White House is confronted by a critic who challenges it on matters of war. The Swift Boating is especially vicious if the critic has more battle scars than a president who connived to serve stateside and a vice president who had "other priorities" during Vietnam.

The most prominent smear victims have been Bush political opponents with heroic Vietnam résumés: John McCain, Max Cleland, John Kerry. But the list of past targets stretches from the former counterterrorism czar Richard Clarke to Specialist Thomas Wilson, the grunt who publicly challenged Donald Rumsfeld about inadequately armored vehicles last December. The assault on the whistle-blower Joseph Wilson - the diplomat described by the first President Bush as "courageous" and "a true American hero" for confronting Saddam to save American hostages in 1991 - was so toxic it may yet send its perpetrators to jail.

True to form, the attack on Cindy Sheehan surfaced early on Fox News, where she was immediately labeled a "crackpot" by Fred Barnes. The right-wing blogosphere quickly spread tales of her divorce, her angry Republican in-laws, her supposed political flip-flops, her incendiary sloganeering and her association with known ticket-stub-carrying attendees of "Fahrenheit 9/11." Rush Limbaugh went so far as to declare that Ms. Sheehan's "story is nothing more than forged documents - there's nothing about it that's real."

But this time the Swift Boating failed, utterly, and that failure is yet another revealing historical marker in this summer's collapse of political support for the Iraq war.

When the Bush mob attacks critics like Ms. Sheehan, its highest priority is to change the subject. If we talk about Richard Clarke's character, then we stop talking about the administration's pre-9/11 inattentiveness to terrorism. If Thomas Wilson is trashed as an insubordinate plant of the "liberal media," we forget the Pentagon's abysmal failure to give our troops adequate armor (a failure that persists today, eight months after he spoke up). If we focus on Joseph Wilson's wife, we lose the big picture of how the administration twisted intelligence to gin up the threat of Saddam's nonexistent W.M.D.'s.

The public knows that what matters this time is Casey Sheehan's story, not the mother who symbolizes it. Cindy Sheehan's bashers, you'll notice, almost never tell her son's story. They are afraid to go there because this young man's life and death encapsulate not just the noble intentions of those who went to fight this war but also the hubris, incompetence and recklessness of those who gave the marching orders.

And what say you Hitchens, you useful fucking idiot? Americans just "freed" the Iraqis so they could live under Islamic law. That's quite a goddamned achievement. You must be so proud.

he doesn't know. poor guy's got a disease. I do wish someone would take away his writing utensils until he gets help though.

As Ms. Zappala noted with rage, her son's death came only a few weeks after Mr. Bush regaled the Radio and Television Correspondents' Association banquet in Washington with a scripted comedy routine featuring photos of him pretending to look for W.M.D.'s in the Oval Office. "We'd like to know if he still finds humor in the fabrications that justified the war that killed my son," Ms. Zappala wrote. (Perhaps so: surely it was a joke that one of the emissaries Mr. Bush sent to Cindy Sheehan in Crawford was Stephen Hadley, the national security adviser who took responsibility for allowing the 16 errant words about doomsday uranium into the president's prewar State of the Union speech.)

Is She Hen going to give her mothers organs to research?? May be a illegals will live with mother donation. Also how is Taliban Janes drive going notice Taliban jane will drive left to map!!

(crayons are okay, I guess. supervised)

THIS summer in Crawford, the White House went to this playbook once too often. When Mr. Bush's motorcade left a grieving mother in the dust to speed on to a fund-raiser, that was one fat-cat party too far. The strategy of fighting a war without shared national sacrifice has at last backfired, just as the strategy of Swift Boating the war's critics has reached its Waterloo before Patrick Fitzgerald's grand jury in Washington. The 24/7 cable and Web attack dogs can keep on sliming Cindy Sheehan. The president can keep trying to ration the photos of flag-draped caskets. But this White House no longer has any more control over the insurgency at home than it does over the one in Iraq.

Mainstream news media suffer collateral damage from Iraq war

By Ron Hutcheson, Knight Ridder Newspapers

WASHINGTON - As the battle for Iraq's future plays out half a world away, the American news media are caught in the crossfire at home.

War supporters accuse journalists of undercutting the troops by highlighting problems and ignoring progress in Iraq. War opponents also are unhappy. They say the media failed to question the need for war and sanitize the conflict by refusing to show gruesome scenes of carnage.

Military mom Cindy Sheehan, who got extensive media coverage for her anti-war protest outside President Bush's Texas ranch this month, voiced the view from the left in a conference call with supporters Aug. 10.

"Thank God for the Internet or we wouldn't know anything and we would already be a fascist state," she said. "The mainstream media is a propaganda tool for the government."

War opponents also are unhappy. They say the media failed to question the need for war and sanitize the conflict by refusing to show gruesome scenes of carnage.

I guess that's one way to put it.

What's Colin Powell been saying lately?

The Security Council speech was the worse speech I ever gave...or some shit like that. He almost sounds guilty.

Its been interesting. we really have a bit of a learning curve thing, not a learning curve, but a creative curve if you will. Its a constant battle to stay ahead of the unforseen.

yesterday we popped the mold and when we went to reseal it, we found the mold was a little less ridgid than we'd expected.

so we had to be adaptable and find a solution, which appears to be working out great.

anyone else see the irony?

Sad.

Sunshine is asleep in his chair,

we planned on having a quick break, but it looks like I should go back to the shop and lock up.

SJ put in a really long day. Sure, we went to the car show, but we started the project about 4 and we went straight through till 111:30

it still adds up to a long day

I just got done watching White Noise with Michael Keaton.

take it easy on the poor deficit sith. He had a terrible shock today. He saw a brown person. They've had to medicate him. All he can do ig giggle and babble, babble and giggle. And occasionally puke.

I just finished watching Sin City.

Sith, why have you decided that it's the Majority Report blog's problem that you hate brown people?

I'm sure there are some real live liberals near where you live that you could go babble and giggle at. Or maybe you tried that, and they kicked the shit out of you.

Oh, that must be it.

When you say Liberal aren't you using it as a code word?

Don't you really mean Jew...

I'm not sure what those creatures were.

The movie itself is pretty good. It talks about clairvoyance.

I noticed however that a person takes a four story drop, lands on her back, then heals fast enough to get in a wheelchair a couple of days later. Let alone the fact...the character is dead.

So the CGI monsters.

I'm not sure what particular spirit/monster that is. I struggled over this "electronic" with The Ring too. You would say ghosts, but I don't think so.

I liked the allusions to Edison...and light...and electricity.

Sound was superb. Nicely acted. Just again...the Director...er. I'm not sure why this is the "new" interpretation of horror.

Like The Curse...earlier tonight.

For instance, it seems convenient to give humans superhuman strength in human form.

The werewolf isn't strong until it's a werewolf.

Those kind of action scenes...gratuitiously added. It's not in Wes Craven's nature, to necessarily get away from the spastic jump out of the screen type slasher flix. But subtly a low budget film can be pretty damn spooky.

White Noise got a little caught up in it's own twist...and could have been another Poltergeist.

It was scary, just slightly too complicated...and unobservant to the obvious at times. This is what happens when you don't re-shoot after the first cut. Or filling in the plot with...well...how can I say this...filler.

Lambert, Hendricks & Ross

Twisted

After a perilous journey by ship... you undertake an arduous climb, within a group, riding on donkey back. The journey involves a painstaking five mile mountain trek.. Eventually you come into a place of great beauty. A sacred grove of pine trees marks the boundary...a serpent is climbing up a tree.. it guards the entrance to this sacred place. Harmless snakes climb everywhere. After dismounting you walk towards a pool of clear blue water... there are figures standing nearby. One explains that it is prescribed that you will bathe to free your soul from the contamination of the modern world... It is said that this bath will enable you to dream without restriction and that the dream will restore your creativity. After removing your clothing you slide into the warm water, luxuriating in it. Purified you put on soft robes. Freshly robed you are ready to enter the Epidaurian Tholos...said to be one of the most beautiful round buildings in the whole of Greece. The mythical musician Thaletas is playing on the flute. At the altar you pay homage to Asklepios, leaving a sacrifice on the altar. A woman leads you through a doorway, down winding stairs, to a labyrinthine basement where prayers are being said. There is a stream of water. You can hear it trickling over stones. You cup your hands, reach into the waters and drink. A sleeping draught has been administered. You lie on the floor. As you slip into the world of sleep a voice speaks to you, asking what you seek... what you are prepared to relinquish.

Begin writing. Do not worry about grammar or spelling. Just write for twenty minutes about your journey. Carefully record your time within the ancient Tholos.

Do not stop to think. Just write about where you are and what happens.

Don't y'all sit around and go...what the fuck, sometimes?

I mean. Am I thinking too much?

It must be a pain in the ass to make a movie...but...

When you're looking at it...and it just plain defies science...or logic.

Don't you go.

I'm sorta having trouble being interested in this film.

My learning curve...is the illogic of others.

After that it's just practise, learn by error, or just plain...fuckin' solving the trick.

jim has arisen. I have to go to the garage and check something. probably won't get back tonight

More news ....

Bush opposition to 'axis of evil' incurs setbacks: President Bush's campaign against what he once termed the "axis of evil" has suffered reverses on all three fronts that underscore the profound challenges confronting him 3½ years after he vowed to take action.

War chief - Nez Perce, by Edward Curtis

Well .... Wooooo Hooooo SAM!!!! Looks like one exception in Political Talk Radio here in the Twin Cities (those being Minneapolis - Saint Paul) is AIR AMERICA!!!!!

Twin Cities listeners have been tuning out political talk radio.... Locally, conservative-talk icon Rush Limbaugh's show has lost 43 percent of its audience among 25- to 54-year-olds in the past year. Sean Hannity's show is down a whopping 63 percent. The shift is serious enough that "we're weighing where these shows fit for us in the future," according to Todd Fisher, general manager at KSTP (1500 AM), which carries both syndicated programs.

From further down in the article ..."The ratings shift hasn't affected partisan radio stations such as WWTC (1280 AM), known as the Patriot, or KTNF (950 AM), home to Air America programming, including Al Franken's weekday show. Both have maintained relatively stable, if small, audience shares of about 1 to 1.5 percent."

I will take small and stable audiences over having my station manager thinking maybe it's time to pull the plug on me any day!! So ... screw what the asshat trolls say .. Air America seems to be fairing great in the Twin Cities!!! Slow and stead wins the race right??

From the heart: A shared loss, but divided opinions

Story about Michael Benson ... his Mom Norma is one of the Mom's in the Star-Tribune article above. Thought maybe someone might want to know about one of the sons??
