 $20 Billion of revenue from oil 'missing'
  Who could've foreseen that the B.F.E.E. would steal?

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 A Christian charity has accused the coalition authority in Iraq of failing to account for up to $20bn
 (nearly £11bn) of oil revenues which should have been spent on relief and reconstruction projects.

Christian Aid, in a report today, claims that the [BFEE], which hands over power to
 an interim administration in Iraq this week, is in flagrant breach of the UN security
 council resolution which gave it control of the country's oil revenues.

 Resolution 1483, passed in May 2003, stated that the money should be spent in the interests
 of the Iraqi people and independently audited, but an auditor was appointed only in April.

 The charity quoted an unnamed UN diplomat as saying: "We only have the total amounts and
 movements in and out of the development fund. We have absolutely no knowledge of what
 purposes they are for and if these are consistent with the security council resolution."

 Last October, Christian Aid revealed that $4bn of oil revenues were unaccounted for, but although
 procedures have been tightened up, the charity said, "we still do not know exactly how Iraq's money
 has been earned, which companies have won the contracts that it has been spent on, or whether this
 spending was in the interests of the Iraqi people."

 According to the coalition's latest figures, the development fund has received $10.7bn.
 Yet it also admits that $12.5bn has been generated since June 2003.  When 5% is taken away to
 pay for Kuwaiti compensation, $1.2bn is still missing, say the Liberal Democrats.
 

 You guys are chumps if you think the BFEE only stole $20 billion.
  2,500,000 barrels a day x $40 a barrel = $100 million per day.
 We've been there a lot longer than 200 days, and don't forget the trillions missing from the
 Treasury and the hundreds of billions Bush will tell us about after he steals this election.

 Add to that the billion dollar kickbacks from halliburton and the illegally-awarded no-bid
 contracts on everything from food to cell phones to laundry and transportation.

 ...and before you get excited that "liberal Democrats" are fighting back,
 they're talking about British democrats - ours are still wetting themselves with fear.

 Beaten L.A. Suspect Denies Police Story
  Says he was carrying nothing when cops beat him on camera

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 Suspected car thief Stanley Miller told his lawyer Monday that he wasn't carrying
 any metal objects when he was struck 11 times with a flashlight as he lay on the
 ground after a chase last week, the Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.

 "If (police) came up with something, the information I'm getting is they either planted it
 on him or they're making it up," attorney Mark Werksman said after a jailhouse interview with Miller.

 Werksman said Miller told him he was wearing sweat pants with loose pockets that would not
 hold his possessions, so he had his cell phone in one hand and $8 in cash in the other as he ran.
 
 

 Are Los Angeles cops crazy?
 Or do they just have more cameras in southern California?

 Bush Misleads About Transfer of Power in Iraq
  ...and the press sings the praises of our brave "war president"

  Excerpt:
 Speaking at the NATO conference in Turkey Monday, President Bush said,
"Fifteen months after the liberation of Iraq...the world witnessed the arrival of
 a free and sovereign Iraqi government."1 The reality, however, is much different.
 

 You bet it is.
 Bush and the American press tell us how wonderful this is, yet they had to sneak
 the paperwork thru in the middle of the night to get around the constant terror bombings.

 They couldn't even have a formal handover ceremony because Paul Bremer had to
 stage his escape and get out of that blazing inferno of beheadings and death, but Bush
 deserves another four years so he can Iraqize other nations in the area.

 Here's the beef
    by Gene Lyons

   Click  Here

   Excerpt:
 ...if inaccurate statements are lies, the Times printed even more lies about Whitewater
 than "weapons of mass destruction." Indeed, had editors heeded problems with its
"investigative" reporting during Clinton's first term when some of us started calling
 attention to them, they might have spared themselves a lot of trouble. Judith Miller's
 bad reporting about Iraq and Jeff Gerth's about Arkansas had certain basic
 similarities: Both reporters went to places they knew little about, put themselves into
 the hands of con men with axes to grind and suppressed dissenting voices eventually
 proved correct.

 As George Seldes observed, however, "the most sacred cow of the press is the press
 itself." Hence, The Washington Post, too, editorialized that Clinton's memoir "veers from
 the nonfiction category" regarding Whitewater, adding: "The tangled real estate investments...
 merited investigation, and the inquiry produced numerous convictions."

 Subject: Best yet Bart!!

 Bart, when you said that "43" had "lots of smartass", you weren't whistling "Oklahoma"!!
 I know I keep telling you that (fill-in-the-blank) was the best yet....but without a doubt, you outdid yourself in 43.
 I especially LOVED the snorty, porcine sound effects whenever you played a Limbaugh piece.

 But you were correct when you said that ole Rushbo had gotten it right when he alleged that the Democrats
 in Congress never gave a Valentine to the Big Dog (Clinton) like Monkey Boy Bush gave him when he and
 Hillary returned to the WH.  Which just goes to show ya.....even a blind, vulgar, pilondial-assed Pigboy
 can find an acorn every now and then.

 Keep hammering....and please, PLEASE....keep the pig snorts for Limbaugh.

 Voting official seeks process for canceling Election over terrorism
   If they cancel the election, there's no way Bush can lose it

  Click  Here

 The government needs to establish guidelines for canceling or rescheduling elections if terrorists
 strike the United States again, says the chairman of a new federal voting commission.

 Such guidelines do not currently exist, said DeForest B. Soaries, head of the voting panel.

 Soaries was appointed to the federal Election Assistance Commission last year by Bush.
 Soaries said he wrote to Kinda Sleazy Rice and Tom Ridge in April to raise the concerns.
 

 I'm very confident that this illegal gang of thugs will not turn loose of their absolute power.
 If they think they need to, they'll blow up New York's tunnels themselves, then claim we can't hold an
 election until the terror stops, which will be never since they're in charge.

 One man's opinion:
  Evidence indicates that Wellstone crash was no accident

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 The FBI's prompt arrival was peculiar. As Christopher Bollyn of American Free Press reported
 (www.rumor millnews.net, Oct. 29, 2002), "According to Rick Wahlberg, then St. Louis County sheriff,
 a team of FBI agents was quickly on the crash site about noon, less than an hour after (assistant manager Gary)
 Ulman and the (fire) chief had first located the site and found a way to access the wreck. This FBI team had
 come from the distant Twin Cities in record time!"

 When Bollyn "asked Ulman if he had notified the FBI about the accident, Ulman said he had not spoken with
 the bureau at any time. Asked how the FBI got to the site so quickly, Ulman said that he assumed they had
 come from Duluth. AFP contacted the Duluth office of the FBI and was told that the team of 'recovery' agents
 had not come from Duluth but had traveled from the FBI office in Minneapolis."

 I calculate that this team would have had to have left the Twin Cities at about the same time the Wellstone plane was taking off.
 

 Note: I, Bart, am not saying this is a fact and and that you must believe this.
           I am saying IF the Senate is 50 50, or (Jeffords) 51/49,  removing one stone in your shoe could solve
           a lot of your problems. And if you have unlimited money and CIA help, very few things are out of your reach.
           And if your goal is a takeover of the world's energy, losing Wellstone could solve a whole host of problems
           - assuming evil men would kill to possess and sell all the energy on Earth.

"The women of America don't need two oil men telling them

   -- my good friend Brad Whitford of The West Wing on AAR Monday

 Pampered Bush meets a real reporter
  I'm so old, I remember when reporters asked real questions

..

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 On the eve of his recent sojourn in Europe, President Bush had an unpleasant run-in
 with a species of creature he had not previously encountered often: a journalist.

 He did not react well to the experience.

 Bush's minders usually leave him in the gentle care of the White House press corps,
 which can be counted on to ask him tough questions about when his summer vacation starts.

 Apparently under the mistaken assumption that reporters in the rest of the world are as
 ill-informed and pliable as the stenographers who "cover" the White House,
 Bush's aides scheduled a sit-down interview with Carole Coleman, Washington correspondent
 for RTE, the Irish public television network..
 

..

 This is great fun to watch.
 Every time the Chimp answers a different question than the one asked, the reporter
 interrupts and 4-5 times, depending on how you count it, Smirk scolds her saying,
"Let me ramble on about a hundred different non-sequitors instead of answering
  your question because I'm stuck with Condi's script and that's all I'll say."

 Watch the Irish reporter make Smirk eat it.  Watch him screw himself.
 Maybe Michael Moore will have this in his next movie

  http://www.rte.ie/news/2004/0624/primetime/primetime56_1c.smil

 Someone in the White House was tied to a tree and whipped for letting

 Bart:

 Greetings from California--CLINTON COUNTRY!
 I saw the Moore/Hanna Storm interview and I laughed my ass off because it's true--
 Michael Moore handed CBS their ASS, not once but during the ENTIRE INTERVIEW.

 It was classic, and he should be hailed as a great American for doing so.
 Stop the goddamned cheerleading and ask the hard questions!

 On another quickie note:  I went to a MATINEE viewing of Farenheit 911 today... 2:30 p.m.
 on a TUESDAY, a WORK DAY.... the line was so long to buy a ticket it wrapped around the building
 into the parking lot.  The ticket gal said it's been like that since 911 opened.   The movie was excellente
 and of course it's propaganda.  As if the daily White House press briefings AREN'T?

 The true morsel was when DICK Cheney's hideously polished noggin appeared on the full screen
 and someone in the crowd yelled aloud, "HEY DICK, GO FUCK YOURSELF!"  and the entire
 moviehouse burst out into laughter, cheers and clapping!

 See?  There truly ARE great Americans out there..the networks just aren't willing to talk to them!

 Keep hammerin!

"The American people are not comfortable dealing with words like "total failure" and "ruined credibility,"
  but these are words that all of us are going to have to become accustomed to. A process that began in
  September 2002 as a coordinated propaganda blitz to convince Americans they were on the verge of
  being gassed by an Osama-Saddam Axis of Doom has now concluded with a farcical handover of
 'sovereignty' in the dead of night. One can almost imagine American proconsul Paul Bremer handing
  the keys to this rolling bomb over to former CIA pal and newly-minted Iraqi 'Prime Minister' Iyad
  Allawi with a snicker and a shrug. Thanks for the laughs, Iyad, but my helicopter is waiting on the roof."

 The Paris Hilton show Simple Life is shallow, scripted and silly

 Looking past the obvious Vegas-style hedonism, the fun of this show is knowing that
 Paris and Nicole couldn't do your job or even my job if their lives depended on it.
 They don't know about real life any more than the Never-elected Monkey knows it.

 People ask - "Could the Bush Monkey run the Fry Station at McDonalds?"
 Watch Paris and Nicole and you'll see that the answer is "No."

 It's funny, ...and laughter is important while living in Bush's fascist Amerikka.

 Then... the World Poker Tour (Travel Channel) winds up their season with the big
 championship at The Bellagio with a $6M purse, bigger even than the World Series of Poker.

 If you're going to Pokerfest Chicago, (and who isn't?) you gotta see this show.
 Watch these guys with nerves of steel bet a million dollars with nothing more than a lie in their hands.
 I'll bet Rummy and Cheney are goddamn masters at poker...

 If you don't get Travel Channel call a friend who does or rent a hotel if you must.
