Not a maverick

did i get it????

finally

We've really dumbed up society with what we call "news"....

The press pushes the "straight talk express" moniker and the "maverick"...

and no one..NO ONE in the major media outlets calls this hypocrite on it...

No wonder newspapers are folding and the news departments in the big 3 tv networks are folding...they're lazy and downright stupid.

I agree with you..it sure is a mind bender and can be helpful for some...Others however should stay away.... :)

they're replaying the first hour, or something... what th'?

Isn't that a horse that a cowboy rides...didn't the media sell Bush as a Cowboy in 2000?

Well, f#$% Bush and the horse he is riding out on....

Sure they are! I mean who really wants to check all cattle for Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy? I mean .. George is doing fine with massive holes in HIS BRAIN, right?

Could .. I mean seriously COULD .. these assholes be more greed oriented and less concerned for human beings? I think they jerk off with "Benjamins" wrapped around their willies. Perhaps someone should point out to these corpulent pricks ... THEY NEED TO EAT, TOO!

Government urges appeals court to keep meatpackers from testing all cattle for mad cow [aka BSE or Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy]
"The Bush administration on Friday urged a federal appeals court to stop meatpackers from testing all their animals for mad cow disease, but a skeptical judge questioned whether the government has that authority.

Chief Judge David B. Sentelle seemed to agree with Creekstone's contention that the additional testing would not interfere with agency regulations governing the treatment of animals." ...

Hum .. overstepping .. why .. the Bush administration NEVER DOES THAT!! Surely NOT!!

mine died too...it's been inconsistent for a few weeks now.

Seriously...time better spent working on our own betterment, imo...

stopped and restarted at the last stop-point -

Bush extends the National Emergency
Submitted by pbtrue1 on Fri, 09/14/2007 - 5:29pm.

For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
September 12, 2007

Notice: Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks

Consistent with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, New York, New York, the Pentagon, and aboard United Airlines flight 93, and the continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.

Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, last extended on September 5, 2006, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2007. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

This was posted by 'anonymous' at 'answerbag.com' in January, about the NSPD (executive order) issued one year and one week ago:

"Yes. Bush can do that. Bush has signed several "Executive Orders" to enact "laws" that did not come through Congress. Those "orders" greatly extend the President's power and are mostly uncontitutional.

"In May 2007, Bush issued a major presidential National Security Directive (National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive NSPD 51/HSPD 20), which would suspend constitutional government and instate broad dictatorial powers under martial law in the case of a "Catastrophic Emergency" [note: the nature of a "catastrophic emergency is undefined and left to the president's discretion; clearly it could be either an outside attack or a natural disaster.]

"On July 11, 2007, the CIA published its "National Intelligence Estimate" which pointed to an imminent Al Qaeda attack on America, a second 9/11 which, according to the terms of NSPD 51, would immediately be followed by the suspension of constitutional government and the instatement of martial law under the authority of the president and the vice-president.

"NSPD 51 grants unprecedented powers to the Presidency and the Department of Homeland Security, overriding the foundations of Constitutional government. It allows the sitting president to declare a “national emergency” without Congressional approval. The implementation of NSPD 51 would lead to the de facto closing down of the Legislature and the militarization of justice and law enforcement.

"The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government for ensuring constitutional government. . . ."

"Were NSPD 51 to be invoked, Vice President Dick Cheney, who constitutes the real power behind the Executive, would essentially assume de facto dictatorial powers, circumventing both the US Congress and the Judiciary, while continuing to use President George W. Bush as a proxy figurehead."

They can create the black shirt type movement until they organize Blackwater & KBR et al. to enforce the new order. Unless they think McCain is going to occupy the White House, in which case they may not bother. What to do -- at the very least confront both/all the candidates with the idea and insist that they have to be prepared.

Plame seeks to resurrect lawsuit against Bush administration in CIA leak case

"Former CIA operative Valerie Plame is trying to resurrect a lawsuit against those in the Bush administration she says illegally disclosed her identity.

During the trial, it was revealed that Libby and former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer also discussed Plame with reporters." ...

She is insisting on taking the headlines, spotlight OFF

o The Prosecutor Scam and Don Siegelman case and election fraud crimes

o The Bush Torture Machine

o The psyops propaganda scam using those 75 generals

o The truth about Iraq's ruin

and so on and on.

It's always good to make a distinction between the fascist "christians" and the actual christians who have no desire at all to push their beliefs onto anyone else.

Who can plumb the minds of the Clintons?
People are saying she wants to run in 2012 -- but she's ruining her chances to be effective in politics. What is clear is that she's tuned in to her own concerns above all else.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7827EMkm5ko

i suspect that both scenarios would co-occur... and i suspect that presidential candidates have been thinking about this since before the 2004 election - despite having set-aside millions (either $14.5 million or $45 million)for a post-election challenge; Kerry folded like a well-oiled umbrella in the wee hours.

When cultural denial breaks down, human reactions are unpredictable at best.

I liked the television program 'jericho' in that it showed a range of human reactions to what we could be facing in october of this year.

worried about. They seem to be going back into "missionary mode" as of late.

Ever heard of these clowns? A Gathering of Eagles.

As a Black/Brown shirt type movement, they are a likely candidate.

I encountered them at the march in DC last year. They fit the mold very nicely. Even their propaganda rings of Goebbels.

Is at the end of the story ...

3 accused of using corpse head to smoke pot
"The Kingwood teenager's story of decapitating a corpse and using the head to smoke marijuana was so outlandish that at first Houston Police Department senior police officer Jim Adkins did not believe it.

Houston police believe the teens disturbed the grave of an 11-year-old boy who died in 1921. ...

The story continues..

"All three teens gave written and verbal confessions admitting they tried to dig up a body over a two-day period, Adkins said.

The three boys, all home-schooled, have also been charged in connection with the vehicle break-in. Jones and the juvenile are charged with credit card abuse, while Gonzalez pleaded guilty to a charge of misdemeanor theft between $50 and $500."

Jesus .. just throw away the friggin' key already.

Yeah -- I saw them there last September, lining the march route with their "counterdemonstration." All I could do at the time was yell, "George Bush is a war criminal," but couldn't force myself to actually read their propaganda.

the worst part of it is they're "under the radar.."
and they really do act like neo-nazis; that's not an extreme thing to say

because I am a relgious Buddhist and an Atheist...we dont believe in a creational God...the guy God sorry I missed the interview with Chris Hedges....

If you get the mailings from the Southern Poverty Law Center you know there is a whole spectrum of neoNazi/ white supremacist/ christian nation/ skinhead/ nationalist/ anti-immigrant groups including the KKK and various churches, out there, that would jump at the chance to pick up weapons and blow away some godless commie fags like you and me, and have the government backing them up openly.

In case you didn't get what was behind that exchange, Mrs. Clinton spent this week making it clear. In a jaw-dropping interview in USA Today on Thursday, she said, "I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on." As evidence she cited an Associated Press report that, she said, "found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."

White Americans? Hard-working white Americans? "Even Richard Nixon didn't say white," an Obama supporter said, "even with the Southern strategy."

If John McCain said, "I got the white vote, baby!" his candidacy would be over. And rising in highest indignation against him would be the old Democratic Party.

To play the race card as Mrs. Clinton has, to highlight and encourage a sense that we are crudely divided as a nation, to make your argument a brute and cynical "the black guy can't win but the white girl can" is -- well, so vulgar, so cynical, so cold, that once again a Clinton is making us turn off the television in case the children walk by.

"She has unleashed the gates of hell," a longtime party leader told me. "She's saying, 'He's not one of us.'"

She is trying to take Obama down in a new way, but also within a new context. In the past he was just the competitor. She could say, "All's fair." But now he's the competitor who is going to be the nominee of his party. And she is still trying to do him in. And the party is watching.

Again: amazing.

Who can save the situation? The superdelegates.

You know them. They're the ones hiding under the rock, behind the boulder, and at the bar.

They are terrified, most of them. They want the problem to go away. They want it handled, but they don't want to do it. They don't want to tell Hillary to stop, because they would likely pay a price for it, and not just with her.

They are afraid of looking as if they're jumping on a train that's speeding down the tracks and is about to roll over the damsel in distress.

and so did her husband, Joseph Wilson.

Plame must be running low on cash.

well, she did lose her job in a rather ugly way by some very powerful criminals.

If Sam is not renewed by Sunday's show (preferably renewed for WEEKDAY shows), I intend to listen to the AAR commercial breaks off and on for a month or so, and make note about who's still advertising. For each one, I intend to contact them and thank them for their previous upport of AAR. I will also let them know that I am no longer listening, and offer other alternatives where they might care to focus their advertising resources.

I have actually influenced my purchasing decisions based on who supports AAR. In the past I have literally taken time to personally contact many businesses, just to let them know how much I appreciated their support for AAR. Just as I close the door when I leave the house, the least I can do is let them know when their advertising investment is no longer going to reach me.

Thoughts?

"Hello to our friends and fans in domestic surveillance."

In his victory speech after the North Carolina primary, Sen. Barack Obama said something that is all the more remarkable for how little it has been remarked upon.

In defending his stated intent to meet with America's enemies without preconditions, Sen. Obama said: "I trust the American people to understand that it is not weakness, but wisdom to talk not just to our friends, but to our enemies, like Roosevelt did, and Kennedy did, and Truman did."

That he made this statement, and that it passed without comment by the journalists covering his speech indicates either breathtaking ignorance of history on the part of both, or deceit.

I assume the Roosevelt to whom Sen. Obama referred is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Our enemies in World War II were Nazi Germany, headed by Adolf Hitler; fascist Italy, headed by Benito Mussolini, and militarist Japan, headed by Hideki Tojo. FDR talked directly with none of them before the outbreak of hostilities, and his policy once war began was unconditional surrender.

FDR died before victory was achieved, and was succeeded by Harry Truman. Truman did not modify the policy of unconditional surrender. He ended that war not with negotiation, but with the atomic bomb.

Harry Truman also was president when North Korea invaded South Korea in June, 1950. President Truman's response was not to call up North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung for a chat. It was to send troops.

...

That view was supported by New York Times columnist James Reston, who traveled to Vienna with President Kennedy: "Khrushchev had studied the events of the Bay of Pigs," Mr. Reston wrote. "He would have understood if Kennedy had left Castro alone or destroyed him, but when Kennedy was rash enough to strike at Cuba but not bold enough to finish the job, Khrushchev decided he was dealing with an inexperienced young leader who could be intimidated and blackmailed."

It's worth noting that Kennedy then was vastly more experienced than Sen. Obama is now. A combat veteran of World War II, Jack Kennedy served 14 years in Congress before becoming president. Sen. Obama has no military and little work experience, and has been in Congress for less than four years.

The closest historical analogue to Sen. Obama's expressed desire to meet with no preconditions with anti-American dictators such as Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is the trip British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and French premier Eduoard Daladier took to Munich in September of 1938 to negotiate "peace in our time" with Adolf Hitler. That didn't work out so well.

History is an elective few liberals choose to take these days, noted a poster on the Web log "Hot Air." The lack of historical knowledge among journalists is merely appalling. But in a presidential candidate it's dangerous. As Sir Winston Churchill said:

"Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it."

Plame didn't lose her job. Plame resigned from the CIA in December 2005.

S.P.I.T. :)

"Hello to our friends and fans in domestic surveillance."

Exactly NB. They are well funded, well organized, and their numbers are slowly, quietly, growing.

Their rhetoric is ultra-nationalistic and decries their being victimized by the "peace movement". Sound familiar? Goebbels' playbook all the way.

This group, in my opinion is extremely dangerous and will become extremely violent when called upon to quell the protests that are coming down the pipe.

keep engaging them.....

If you want them to go....

from the wiki:

Valerie Elise Plame Wilson (born Valerie Elise Plame 19 April 1963, in Anchorage, Alaska), known as Valerie Plame, Valerie E. Wilson, and Valerie Plame Wilson, is a former United States CIA Operations Officer whose covert identity was classified and the wife of former Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV.[1][2][3][4][5][6] After working for the CIA for twenty years, she retired in December 2005, as a result of the publication and compromising of her classified cover identity by an American journalist in the summer of 2003.

On 14 July 2003, Robert Novak identified "Wilson's wife" publicly as "an agency operative on weapons of mass destruction" named "Valerie Plame" in his syndicated column in The Washington Post.[7] In that column Novak was responding to an op-ed entitled "What I Didn't Find in Africa," written by Wilson and published in the New York Times the previous week, on July 6, 2003. In his op-ed, Wilson stated that the George W. Bush administration exaggerated unreliable claims that Iraq intended to purchase uranium yellowcake from Niger to support the administration's arguments that Iraq was proliferating weapons of mass destruction so as to justify its preemptive war in Iraq.[8]

Novak's public disclosure of Mrs. Wilson's then-still-classified covert CIA identity as "Valerie Plame" precipitated what is known as the Plame affair, leading to the CIA leak grand jury investigation, which resulted in the indictment , conviction and commuted sentence (prior to the anticipated full pardon by President Bush) of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby in United States v. Libby on charges of perjury, obstruction of justice, and making false statements to federal investigators. A civil lawsuit filed by the Wilsons, Plame v. Cheney, against current and former government officials, followed, but was dismissed on July 19, 2007, in the District Court for the District of Columbia. The Wilsons appealed the decision the next day.

It's always good to make a distinction between the fascist "christians" and the actual christians who have no desire at all to push their beliefs onto anyone else.

» ========================================

Christianists. These are Christian in name only.

And we mustn't forget the Dominionists (some of whom are behind the mercenary corporations AND the crooked electronic voting technology -- so they have a goal and are moving toward it in scary ways!)....

which means I don't worry about it!

WASHINGTON -- Barack Obama -- the charismatic, weakened, patronizing, soaring, prickly, historic, inevitable nominee of the Democratic Party -- is now left with two related problems.

First, Obama's own missteps, amplified by Hillary Clinton's negativity, have defined a narrative likely to follow him until Election Day.

In politics, a narrative -- the widely held, sometimes-unfair shorthand that marks a candidate -- is difficult to shift. For Dan Quayle, it was fresh-faced intellectual vacuity. For John Kerry, it was a combination of hauteur and inconstancy.

The Obama narrative is intellectual and ideological (not social) elitism. Humble roots have never been a guarantee of intellectual humility, especially when a mind comes to flower at Columbia and Harvard. Obama's dismissal of small town views and values as "bitterness," "fear" and "anger" -- his dismissal of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright as the relic of an angry generation -- come across as, well, dismissive. His first instinct -- the academic instinct -- is to explain and analyze, which is impressive to political writers who share that particular vocation. But this approach always places the explainer in a position of superiority. The arrogance of the aristocrat is nothing compared to the arrogance of the academic.

...

It is also a striking reversal of fortunes. Obama is easily the most religiously fluent and informed Democratic presidential candidate since Jimmy Carter. But, over time, Obama has assumed a much more familiar, Democratic electoral profile -- the candidate of the young, the educated and the secular (he has consistently won religiously nonaligned voters), who also gets nearly universal support from African-Americans. He increasingly resembles Bill Bradley or Gary Hart -- a candidate of new liberalism -- with this additional element of black enthusiasm.

There are many possible reasons for the opening of a religion gap, in addition to Obama's off-putting aura of superiority. Bill Galston of the Brookings Institution suggests that Catholics may be more attracted to bread-and-butter issues than elevated calls for change; more likely to be political "regulars" instead of reformers; more apt to identify age with leadership. Both white Catholics and white Protestants seem to have been disturbed by Rev. Wright's vigorous reassertion of black liberation theology -- not because it is black, but because it is radical. And at least some Americans are concerned by the unreconstructed liberalism -- on abortion and other issues -- beneath Obama's post-partisan approach.

Going forward, the main political question is this: Can John McCain turn this disaffection into Republican votes? Given his instinctual populism, policy moderation and moving life story, perhaps he is the only Republican who could. Given the distemper of the country, the public preference for Democrats on nearly every policy issue, and the destruction of the Republican brand among the young, perhaps no Republican could.

"Hello to our friends and fans in domestic surveillance."

I am so glad Marc and his friends are talking about the racism involved in the attacks on Rev. Wright.

Way to go, guys!!!!!

i missed the Hedges interview. Had to run an errand and there wasn't enough chord for my puter to reach to the car.

are there any bootleg podcasts of the three Maron shows from this week? I missed almost all of the first two.

BIOLOGY in general. Their insistence on denying biology (their acceptance of their myth as literally true makes it necessary) expands to denying all science, apparently.

these fucking ads....sammy cam.......much better

Can't find it anywhere....Anybody in here know?

i think a lot of atheists (based on ones i talk to regularly) seem to think all christians are dogmatic and fundamentalist by nature. many are. many are not. lots of us don't even believe in hell so we don't assume someone's going to hell if they believe differently than we do. and then we get told by atheists that we're not "really" what we say we are. if we were, they say, we'd be dogmatic and fundamentalist, too!

if atheists don't want religious people to define them based on their thought processes regarding religion, why do so many atheists insist on defining these other people by what they assume their beliefs are? i think maybe it's more a human nature thing than an atheist vs. religious person debate.

but i don't want to be dogmatic about it either way.

I heard he was going to host one week.

‘I Personally Checked John McCain’s Bearings’

Is that a homosexual reference? How does one personally check another's bearings? Does it involve juggling the nuts?

Ha!

Sara and I flew home from Midway last night, a 7:55 flight. We were some of first passengers to pause for just a moment to look at these strange new signs, and corresponding lanes; as we rushed to our flight. I saw others doubling back to get a second look, apparently in disbelief.

From K.O. Last Night:

"Best Homeland Security innovation, in fact first Homeland Security innovation, Levanche Johnson, Transportation Security Manager at Midway in Chicago now offering security training with three separate lanes marked with signs like at ski resorts, beginners, casual travelers and black diamond course for advanced passengers who don‘t need to be told to take off their shoes and take out their laptops, but just go ahead and do it."

Has such an ease about it and is so authentic in his form of questioning, that is, his questions come from his own personal interest, is what I mean to say.

I heard Hedges interviewed by Hartmann, too, and Marc's interview was so much better, because Marc just let Hedges do his thing so we could find out where Hedges is coming from. (Hartmann's interview of Hedges got all confused and strange; I couldn't figure out the odd energy.)

But, Maron, interviews like the guest and audience are all just stopping in "TO HANG"! Love that relaxed energy, too. Just like I love Sam's LASER INTERVIEWS that get to the nucleus of any issue.

Both Seder and Maron are VERY special talents!

Remember, when Kerry was going to run with Mccain?
After listening to desperate Hillary supporters call in all day to different shows vowing to vote for Mccain now, I'm convinced that a Mccain/Clinton ticket is unbeatable.

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it. ~ George Bernard Shaw

Who are the White Ethnic Voters?

MSNBC political pundits are, as I write, refering to a class of voters in Ohio and other states, as Ethnic White voters. What in hell are Ethnic White Voters? On the MSNBC web site, it notes that exit polls suggest that "white, blue collar and older voters" are trending toward Clinton whereas African Americans are voting for Obama. In short, for the most part, Whites go for Clinton and Blacks for Obama. These are, of course, overlapping descriptive terms since a single person could be white, blue collar, and old.

I already knew that America is a racist country with Blacks being every bit as racist if not more racist than Whites. The difference in this election is I suspect that a greater percentage of Whites are voting for Obama than would be true of Blacks in regard to Clinton. These Whites would, of course, be liberals. This tendency is magnified by Obama's seeming to be the more liberal candidate. The more extreme liberals would be anti-Clinton since Bill moved the party toward the center when he was President, which accounts both for his getting elected and the successes he had as President. Much to the chagrin of Republicans, Clinton stole some of their most basic tenets -- free trade, balanced budgets (forget that Reagan and W have been pro-deficit -- Reagan was a Reagan conservative (no taxes for the rich) and W is a neocon, a very different kind of rat), and the like. So, now you know why White liberals don't like Hilary. She isn't noticeably liberal (any more).

But that brings me back to the intriguing concept of the Ethnic White. There was a time when I saw Italian Americans and Irish Americans as classic cases of Ethnic Whites -- Whites who maintain their ethnic identity. I don't think that this is what the pundits on MSNBC have in mind exactly.

These pundits also speak of Working Class Whites. At this point, I am massively confused. Are Working Class Whites the same as Ethnic Whites or different? Historically, Ethnic Whites did tend to hold blue collar jobs back when such jobs existed. I think that these MSNBC pundits are using "Ethnic White" to refer to what are sometimes called "Red Necks." Nowhere in these discussions is there any reference to "Whites who continue to be fairly racist" but we all know that there are still plenty of them around -- indeed, they abound in Ohio. As I write this, I am no longer watching the political coverage because there is a competing Ohio State basketball game to watch so I don't know how Ohio will go. I am betting we can expect our Ethnic Whites to make the difference for Hillary. There is an irony here -- no President has been as pro-Black as Bill Clinton but now, assuming I haven't totally misread the situation, the historic White racists are voting for Hillary. That's okay by me since gobs of Black racists are voting for Obama.

I hope I have been reasonably coherent. It is hard to compose prose and watch a basketball game at the same time.

ACLU Skeptical of Senate Report on “Homegrown” Terrorism

WASHINGTON, DC - May 8 - After Senators Joseph Lieberman (I-CT) and Susan Collins (R-ME) introduced a report on Islamic homegrown terrorism today, the American Civil Liberties Union strongly urged Congress to use caution when moving forward on related legislation, the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007 (S. 1959). The report, "Violent Islamist Extremism, the Internet, and the Homegrown Terrorism Threat," is based on findings from hearings held by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. The ACLU and nearly twenty other groups sent a memo to the committee outlining concerns with the report, most notably the free speech implications of labeling the internet as a "weapon" and the unfair singling out of one religious group as possible "extremists."

"Once we begin trying to regulate belief systems, we have veered perilously far from the Constitution," said Caroline Fredrickson, director of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office. "Though the need to prevent criminal acts of violence is unquestionable, targeting communities based on religious beliefs is unacceptable and unproductive. We will only end up stigmatizing the Islamic community and creating a nation of Islamophobes. We should not be legislating against thought and we should certainly not be regulating religious or unpopular thought. A dynamic debate can only make this country stronger and safer."

ACLU

In a stunning admission to ABC news, President Bush declared that he knew his top national security advisers discussed and approved specific details of the CIA's use of torture. Bush also defended the use of waterboarding - simulated drowning where the victim feels like they are about to die.

Congress should long ago have gotten to the bottom of which top officials approved, condoned and authorized U.S. involvement in torture. But, now that the President has admitted to a policy of top-down torture, it's even more critical that Congress get involved. Take action: tell your members of Congress you demand accountability for torture now!

The 51 year old Senninger is in hot water now, as he was arrested at his home Wednesday afternoon and booked in the St. Johns County jail in Palencia, FL. Senninger is currently facing charges that he is a fugitive from justice in Michigan for larceny and theft. He is being held without bond pending an appearance before a judge, and is currently waiting extradition to Iosco County, Michigan. Gary Rapp, Iosco County prosecutor, said the larceny by conversion charge was for "more than $1,000 and under $20,000." According to a Florida state attorney fraud investigator, Senninger also has bench warrants issued in Michigan for non payment of child support.

I heard Hedges interviewed by Hartmann, too, and Marc's interview was so much better, because Marc just let Hedges do his thing so we could find out where Hedges is coming from. (Hartmann's interview of Hedges got all confused and strange; I couldn't figure out the odd energy.)

But, Maron, interviews like the guest and audience are all just stopping in "TO HANG"! Love that relaxed energy, too. Just like I love Sam's LASER INTERVIEWS that get to the nucleus of any issue.

US Leaves Injured Iraqis Untreated

United States occupation forces in Iraq are refusing to treat wounded and sick Iraqis if their injuries are not directly caused by the United States. This shocking behavior is a violation of the Geneva Conventions.

On June 30, dozens of Iraqis were killed and scores injured in an explosion at an abandoned ammunition dump at Haditha, 260 kilometers northeast of Baghdad. The victims had apparently been searching for shell casings to sell as scrap.

According to the BBC, a spokesman for US Central Command in Baghdad said that, because the dump was Iraqi, not American, US forces in the area were not taking responsibility for caring for the wounded.

But the United States is responsible at every level. First and foremost, as the occupying power, the US is supposed to provide security for Iraq's people. The fact that Iraqi civilians can walk into abandoned Iraqi Army stores shows that the US is dismally failing to do that. A few weeks ago, Iraqi villagers became ill after taking radioactive canisters from a known Iraqi nuclear site that US forces had failed to secure.

Second, the US is legally and morally obliged to render assistance to the injured. Article 16 of the Fourth Geneva Convention states: "The wounded and sick, as well as the infirm, and expectant mothers, shall be the object of particular protection and respect." Article 55 states: "To the fullest extent of the means available to it, the occupying power has the duty of ensuring the food and medical supplies of the population; it should, in particular, bring in the necessary foodstuffs, medical stores and other articles if the resources of the occupied territory are inadequate."

A bizarre Capitol Hill ceremony a few years ago in which the eccentric conservative publisher the Rev. Sun Myung Moon declared himself the Second Coming was organized with help from a senior adviser to John McCain's presidential campaign.

Charlie Black, a Washington lobbyist and McCain confidant, lent his name to the coronation ceremony and invited a few friends, according to newly disclosed e-mails.

"What is clear from this email is that top Mccain advisor Charlie Black is admitting that he helped plan, and would have attended, an event where a convicted tax fraud would have been crowned King Of America and declared himself the Messiah--all on U.S. Government federal property (on March 23, 2004)," writes author Cliff Schecter, who published the e-mails on his blog Friday.

The Destruction of Iraqi Healthcare Infrastructure

Adil Shamoo | May 31, 2007

Editor: Erik Leaver, IPS

Foreign Policy In Focus www.fpif.org

Ten thousand doctors have fled the country. Two thousand have been killed. Some hospitals lack the rudimentary elements of care: hygiene, clean water, antibiotics, anesthetics and other basic drugs. Oxygen, gauze, rubber gloves, and diagnostic instruments such as X-rays are absent or rarely evident. This is Iraq today.

Before Iraq suffered through an embargo and two wars with the United States starting in 1990, its healthcare system was considered one of the best in the Middle East. Iraq had well-trained physicians and modern facilities. Today, the healthcare system barely exists at all, with few healthcare workers and hospitals that are battlegrounds.

According to Save the Children, an independent non-profit humanitarian organization, in 2005, 122,000 Iraqi children died before they reached their fifth birthday. Since 1990, there has been a 150 percent increase in the mortality rate for Iraqi children. The under-5 mortality rate per one thousand live births in Iraq is 125; in Egypt it is just 33. Iraq’s record in children’s healthcare now ranks in the bottom three countries in the world.

With the current conditions of Iraq at war, the death statistics continue to spiral upward. The diseases of the developing world are affecting Iraq’s children – pneumonia and diarrhea. Malnutrition is wreaking havoc with the growth of Iraq’s next generation. The London Guardian reports that in addition to these many physical traumas, millions of Iraqi children have been psychologically traumatized by the war.

Progressive author John Gorenfeld recently released a book exposing the unsavory ties between the GOP and billionaire, Washington Times Publisher (and convicted tax cheat) Reverend Sun Myung Moon. In his book, Bad Moon Rising, Gorenfeld shows the relationship between many in the Republican hierarchy, including the Bush clan, and a man who has often been charged with being a leader of a cult.

What is beyond question, however, is that a high-ranking McCain Campaign official, Charlie Black, has planned ceremonies for Moon to be crowned "King Of America," and Moon has had damning things to say about the Christian faith.

First from an email chain between Gorenfeld and Black:

Sen.Leahy & Rep.Conyers..

The U.S. House of Representatives has passed a strong and balanced FISA bill, legislation that protects America's national security while defending civil liberties -- without granting retroactive immunity to phone companies. Retroactive immunity would abet the Bush-Cheney Administration's efforts to avoid accountability for its actions.

This was a tremendous accomplishment -- and would not have been possible without the hard work of engaged citizens. Together, we have already sent 1,724 letters to the editors of newspapers in support of a fair FISA bill!

But there's still much work to do. Now that the House has passed a fair FISA bill, it's time to turn our attention back to the Senate.

Urge the Senate to support the House’s strong and balanced FISA bill -- forward an email to your Senators now!

Then, getting ready to watch KO I hear Chris Matthews actually defend Obama with a comment referring to Obama's response to McCain's statements @ Hamas supporting Obama - Matthews saying that he thought Obama's response that McCain has "lost his bearings"...was not a dig at McCain's age or state of mental health but referred to McCain having "derailed off the straight talk express"....

What is this world coming to?

And when did Matthews become a strawberry blonde? Did it happen during his Obama baptism? He stayed under the cherrylimeade river a bit too long?

So it's all laundry this weekend. Though we're go run to my parents house tomorrow 'cause we probably won't see Mom on Mother's Day. (We'll have just arrived from a 10 hour flight.)

do i know you man, woman? r u studyying me?

can i pay you pleeeze? geez! story of my life

I just realized that rather than hanging at home celebrating Mother's Day Sam'll have to slog through what might be his last time on the air for a while. That's really gotta suck.

I was in a government building today and overheard what sounded like a shouted conversation about Obama and Hillary so I walked over to hear it.

A group of "working class white men" who for some reason were disobeying the New York Times and supporting Obama were discussing Hillary with a very demure sweet young woman. This was how the conversation went.

Sweet girl: Why can't you just give her a chance?

Scumbag#1: (stated in a nearly hysterical screaming voice) This woman just can't take no for an answer. Now they want her as vice president-you know that something would happen to Obama if she was!

Scumbag#2: (stated in a very loud rage filled and high pitched condescending tone) She said she was under fire in Bosnia. You cant believe anything the Clintons say!

Scumbag#1: (stated again in a hysterically angry voice)You know that pakistani woman they shot-I think they shot the wrong woman!

It went on and on and this girl just had to take it.

Later I went up to her and told her I supported Hillary and she was happy to hear that some men still supported her.

The Obama people are scum. I never saw one of them I had any real respect for. Thugs, vicious ugly people who hate women and who try to cover their anger with any excuse they can.

I hope Hillary stays in the race long enough to drive them all utterly mad.

Just appreciating your unique contributions. But if you know me, i'm not aware of it. ;-)

again----do you know me? told you i love asking questions!

I only know you insofar as by what you post. I wouldn't consider that a clear measure of knowing a person at any rate. As for WHO you are, where you live/work/play etc, no idea at all.

So no, that's not me stalking you from behind the bushes.

case be it may...but when you step to me step correctley (sp?) and i will too...

i wish you would!! you would than really know me--

how cum you are talking to me anyway only now?

If the scene was as you described it and you had any guts you would have waded in and stood your ground instead of just watching someone get brow beaten, then skulking over later to whisper your support and then coming here to spew your hatred and pass that victimization you feel on to someone else.

Talk about the cycle of violence.

Probably feeling insecure about Sam's show's future.

I'll listen to Marc's shows this week on the way over to Frankfurt Sunday evening.

I really hope AAR isn't actually making those two compete for one slot.

I've never staked, wouldn't know where to start. Is there a stalking manual somewhere? Gee, I hope you're local.

As for my recent participation, i've been quietly reading this blog since the Majority Report days. Mostly i've been quiet since i'm usually working. I think maybe i've been quiet so long because i'm nervous about the future of the show & blog, and have recently felt like it's time to get involved a little, to show that I appreciate everyone, as a whole and individually, enough to at least say something.

Well, to counterweight your `real-life experience', let me share one of my own...

I recently was in the most unsavory part of town where I overheard a conversation of Hillary supporters. It went something like this.

Scumbag #1: I committed Identification fraud on all the residents of my neighborhood retirement center. I cleared out their bank accounts and sent the money to Hillary's champaign.

Scumbag #2: When I get tired of raping my grandchildren, I sell them into prostitution and send the money to Hillary's campaign.

Scumbag #Wolf: Hillary and I both thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your support.

Vicious appologies to all. Grrr.

Well, that's just Bitchin' Camaro! I'll be here as long as the light's on. ;-)

Your a typical Obama scum bag-attack anyone but the people doing wrong.

I omitted my contribution to the conversation-I said to one of them shut the fuck up-I cant believe I have to listen to this. He looked nervously at me and walked to the other side of the room which was very large.

Well fat buba-the difference is I'm honest-and your a scum bag.

San Franciscans Want to Put President Bush's Name in the Toilet

Friday, May 09, 2008

A group called the Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco has launched a ballot initiative that would rename a city sewage treatment plant the "George W. Bush Sewage Plant."

A petition is being circulated that would put the measure up for a vote in November. If it passes, it will rename the city's Oceanside Treatment Plant for the 43rd president of the United States.

Republican Party spokesman Leo Lacayo said it's just another move from the "hate Bush crowd."

"First of all, it's insulting," Lacayo said. "Second of all, it demonstrates to what lows some people will reach in order to oppose this president and the policies that have kept this country safe during his mandate."

Virginia-born activist and ordained minister John Rinaldi, a co-sponsor of the petition who ran unsuccessfully for mayor last year under his nickname "Chicken John," said the initiative would turn "every toilet in San Francisco into basically a shrine for George W. Bush and all his great achievements in his eight years as our commander in chief."

A Plush Flush- AZ Republic

Royal Restrooms also was elected when President Bush visited the Valley, Fuller said. He is the proud owner of what now could be called the First Flush, not bad for the (formerly) humble throne.

Cost for a one-night stand is $500-$2,500, depending upon the size of the toilet trailer. Local companies can also provide an attendant at an additional cost.

And though these traveling toilets sell for $30,000 to $110,000, those who rent them out say they are, yes, flushed with success.

Even Bush's crap is classified top secret. According to our Austrian sources, Austrian newspapers are currently abuzz with special security details of George W. Bush's recent trip to Vienna. Although the heavy-handed Gestapo-like security measures meted out to Viennese home owners, business proprietors, and pedestrians by US Secret Service agents and local police before and during Bush's visit received widespread Austrian media attention, it was White House "toilet security" ("TOILSEC"), which has Austrians talking the most.

The White House flew in a special portable toilet to Vienna for Bush's personal use during his visit. The Bush White House is so concerned about Bush's security, the veil of secrecy extends over the president's bodily excretions. The special port-a-john captured Bush's feces and urine and flew the waste material back to the United States in the event some enterprising foreign intelligence agency conducted a sewage pipe operation designed to trap and examine Bush's waste material. One can only wonder why the White House is taking such extraordinary security measures for the presidential poop.

Cool and did I read you stayed at the W?

I can't help but wonder if staying at the W is two levels of comfort above staying at the Y.

sue me for defamation...It'd be fun.

I wonder if it would get past the part where my lawyer would ask If I was acquainted with the plaintiff and I said I never heard of him, only someone calling himself `wolf'...

the judge would be invited to consider the absurdity of defaming the character of an person whose identity is unknown...

Enquiring minds want to know mr. always angry at democracy & americans punk 'wolf', why don't you tell everyone what you got arrested for?

Are you just a petty criminal or a just another ignorant sexual deviant punk that was caught?

=====

By the way, you wouldn't know what "libel" was if the word was painted on the gerbils you shove up your hating ass.

One of the first things that ignorant stupid guilty criminals say when they are caught is wimpily whine "libel". Not by any measure facist unamerican punk.

:)

Sorry I have to watch Dr Who now-I hope you all have a very nice evening and eat lots of ice cream and cheese cake or whatever you fat people who worship Obama do to make life bearable.

Soon your hero will be the candidate and then he will start to lose.

I will rub salt into your open wounds as he fails and withers away.

It will be great fun.

See you soon-fatsos.

Why not tell me your real name and I can now sue you and get mucho dinero-god your so stupid. I could just sue sammy and get your name-Maybe I should???

Pathetic !!
Can't these Moron's do Anything right ? !

WASHINGTON - The Pentagon is recommending changes in the handling of troops' remains, after it was revealed that a crematorium contracted by the military handles both human and animal cremations.

A military official said there have been no instances or charges that human and pet remains were mixed. But officials are now recommending that troops' remains be incinerated at a facility that is dedicated entirely to humans, in order to avoid any appearance of a problem. Or, officials said, families can opt to have a relative's remains sent to a local funeral home for cremation, which would be paid for by the military.

Once again I am surprised to see that someone is attempting to insult you by calling you a fatty.

Note to idiots:

When a guy names HIMSELF "Chubby Bubba", that Insult Boat has already sailed. The bomb is defused. The hate train is on the laugh track.

You know wolfie punkboy, don't get so upset and spewing hateful bs at everyone all the time, its just a little blog here.

Your petty criminal record is nothing to be that ashamed of but it is too bad that you couldn't complete your time in the mental facility so that your criminal record could be expunged.

:)

I'd rather be a Fatso than a Fascist !

new thread.

Actually all I have to do now is say my real name and you are toast.

Libel per se is a lovely tort. As long as a moron like paranoid does certain things-he's committed a tort and damage$ are presumed-its up to the jury to decide!

You are correct- I say you because you are all so fat that I have trouble distinguishing you as individuals-all I see is a line of fat bellies wagging-anyway-you are correct-you fatsos-in saying that I need to be identifiable in order to meet all the elements of the tort-but thats easy to fix!

Then there really is no discretion-its a done deal-libel per se-you have accused me of having committed a criminal act-and being a Hillary supporter I am more than innocent :) -now you give me your house. Its called da law.

Oh wait-the fly in the ointment-you are an Obama supporter-all your money is tied up in oreo cookies! Is it worth it I ask?!? Hmmm.

And wait again-I'm a buddhist with a heart of gold-I'm not allowed to actually hurt people-damn. That awful pledge! You tricked me Dalai Lama!

Damn, damn, damn,-oh well-you are still a fatty. Eat your oreos-double stuffed no doubt. Worship your Obama. Hope for change.

I'm sorry for you in a way. You really believe in Obama and his nonsense. When he betrays you it will even hurt my metallic heart.

edna ellen poe,

I'm a fatty, you're a fatty, he's a fatty, she's a fatty: Don't you wish that we weren't living among adults who have the emotional quotient of a second grader?

...and people wonder why I have a low opinion of the average American. Sheesh. Just when I think that life is an elongated version of high school, someone comes along sporting a grade school mentality.

ROFLMFAO!
