Pages Fear
GOP Retaliation
by Robert Parry
Excerpt:
Capitol Hill pages kept quiet about Rep. Mark
Foley's suggestive e-mails for years out of fear
that they would be blacklisted from future political
jobs in the Republican-controlled U.S. government.
This fear of retaliation was one of the lessons
that the pages learned from watching how the adults
behaved in today's Washington.

'The best news in the field.'
Subject: Bush's legal torture
Hey Bart,
What a fucked-up world we live in...
If any other country in the world would have legalized
torture and/or accepted new legislation
like the one the American Congress has accepted
now, all diplomatic relations would be suspended.
However, I (living in The Netherlands) have to
go and find out through internet what has actually happened
with the new torture bill, because not one newsbroadcast
or newspaper over here has clarified the impact
the new torture bill has. They don't seem to
want to know, and consequently the public over here doesn't
know unless they go and find out themselves.
I've read what the bill actually implies
I know many people in the US don't support the
current regime and I don't want to hold all Americans
responsible for what is happening because the
decisions are made by politicians, but WHY THE HELL
DO Y'ALL ACCEPT THIS????
Bart Van Der
Dude, what do you suggest?
The media covers for him and the Democrats are quivering in a puddle
of urine.
Der Fuhrer runs the biggest military in the world and he riggs elections.
What do you suggest we do?

Haster knew
about Foley last year
Now, Sweaty screams, "We must protect the kids."
Excerpt:
Rep. Thomas Reynolds, head of the House Republican
election effort, said Saturday he told
Dennis Hastert months ago about concerns
that a fellow GOP lawmaker had sent inappropriate
messages to a teenage boy. Hastert's office said
aides referred the matter to the proper authorities
last fall but they were only told the messages
were "over-friendly."
"The improper communications between Foley and
former House Congressional pages is unacceptable
and abhorrent. It is an obscene breach of trust,"
Hastert, Boehner, and Roy Blunt in a written statement.
Hastert and the others KNEW the pervert was tracking future
victims and did nothing.
If the Democrats had any balls (should I finish this sentence?)
they would DEMAND
that Hastert, Boner and Blunt step down and let them play some defense
for a change.
"But Bart, our job is to make things easier for the Republicans."

When Bush was the toast of DC, Woodward was his biggest praiser.
Now that the war has brought Bush to the 30s in approval,

The Death of AAR
Bart, you asked:
>So how did they fuck that up?
They underestimated their audience.
To be honest, I just can't listen to AAR, and
I'm rather solidly on the left.
But the tone of the station is shrill, they sometimes
play as fast and loose with facts as Limbaugh,
and frankly I expect more from the left than
I do from the right, even on AM radio.
I've listened to Franken, Randi and Malloy and I haven't heard any "loose
with the facts."
Do you remember anything specific?
Is there some sort of rule that says if you're
stuck in the AM spectrum
you have to hone your broadcast to appeal only
to IQs below 100?
I had higher hopes for AAR. But I just can't
take their tone,
and I'm quite certain they aren't winning any
converts.
Steve.
"Tone" is a hard thing to identify.
I was glad we finally got some truth on the airwaves - for once.
Update: Two people have written
to say AAR is involved in some secret,
last-minute attempts to remain on the air - should know "in a week."
If it works, maybe the new suits will re-hire Malloy.
BTW, I have nothing against Peter Werbe, but if they can afford his
salary,
why couldn't they afford Mike's?

Subject: Debbie Stabenow
Bart, thanks for the heads up on my senator, Debbie
Stabenow, voting for the torture bill.
She was the one person I didn't think I had to
worry about: She voted against Roberts and Alito,
so I am completely shocked about her vote on
Friday. I contacted her office for a response, and to
their credit, someone called me back first thing
Monday morning. The woman who called did not
have an answer for me; she said that Senator
Stabenow had not yet said anything, so she would be
sure to pass my information on to the Senator
for her direct response.
I can't support her anymore (she's up for relection
next month). This is one issue that can't be dismissed
as a hiccup in an otherwise exemplary record.
And if her response is, as with the few other Dem senators
who have made an excuse, that the courts can
make the decision, it is even worse: these folks know that
the Supremes are responsible for annointing this
criminal President in the first place, and also that the
makeup of the court is even worse now.
Every time I think things can't get worse, they
do.
Keep hammerin'; I'll try as well.

I feel betrayed by Debbie Stabenow.
I ran some free ads for her, never dreaming she'd vote to let Bush

Who Protected
The Foley Perv?
from Jeff Gannon's rag
Excerpt:
It's one of the worst congressional scandals
ever. A top House Republican who denounced
sex predators as "animals" stands accused of
acting like one. Mark Foley had served as a
Deputy Majority Whip in the House and co-chaired
the Caucus on Exploited Children.
His forced resignation, after being exposed as
a homo-perv who talked dirty to young boys,
has done a lot of damage to the GOP. But it remains
to be seen whether the liberal media
and the Democrats can successfully exploit this
scandal.
Knowing the scared gelding Democrats, I doubt
it.
If Bush had a ten percent approval rating,
they'd still be too scared to speak.
Brian Ross of ABC News broke the story and publicized
the "sexually explicit" messages Foley
sent to former congressional pages. Curiously,
Ross never once used the word "homosexual" in
referring to Foley's conduct. But if Foley acted
out his Internet fantasies in real life, he will be
exposed as not only a homo-pedo but a predator.
The messages indicate Foley is extremely sick.
I guess the lesson learned here is when you want protection from your
crimes,
don't go to Haster - go right to Der Monkey-Furhrer.

The Perv Pope?
Excerpt:
Before scheming his way into DSt Peter's chair,
Joey the Rat enforced church doctrinal orthodoxy,
including a "secret Vatican decree which seemed
to shelter the perpetrators and silence the victims
of abuse", the Panorama program said Sunday.
This was a 1962 document which told top churchmen
how to deal with perv priests.
It imposed an oath of secrecy on victims, witnesses
and those probing abuse claims
and said that anyone who talked would be excommunicated,
the
BBC said.
As we said before - Joet the Rat was the Enforcer - he was their Karl
Rove.

Why I hate
Bill Clinton
by Arianna Huffington
Excerpt:
The bipartisan love-in he's been engaged in over
the last several years has resulted in jack-squat.
After providing Bush cover for his disastrous
handling of Katrina, (I'm not familiar with
that)
after trying to get himself adopted by George
Bush, Sr., (Arianna, I hate it when
they get cute)
after giving Laura Bush the keynote slot at his
Global Initiative Conference, after going along
with Rupert Murdoch's fundraiser for Hillary
-- after all that, he got exactly nothing.
That phrase in bold is wild, impossible to verify
or quantify and reeks of handjob-ism.
Has Arianna ever offered a substantive reason to hate
the Clintons?
All of Bill Clinton's tireless "bipartisanship"
has been of no benefit to him,
of no benefit to the country, and has only benefited
George Bush and the right-wing.
The last trashing of the Clintons was that they're all about themselves
and grabbing glory.
Now you're pissed at them for not taking action that would benefit
them, personally?
Why does Arianna continue to pretend she plays the game better than
the Clintons?
It can only be that she wants a bigger piece of the "I
hate the Clintons" cash cow.
When she becomes president, will Arianna flip-flop and suck up to her?
Or will she trash our new president for the next eight years?

Sleazy and
her Nest of Lies
by William Rivers Pitt
Excerpt:
Condoleezza Rice may have committed perjury before
the 9/11 Commission. At a minimum,
her testimony was a convenient mishmash of half-truths
and omissions which served to paint the
White House as innocent bystanders as 9/11 unfolded.
Certainly, her testimony omitted the fact
that the two most senior intelligence officials
in the nation delivered a stern warning regarding an
impending terror attack two full months before
9/11.
The Washington Post carried a story that described
a desperate attempt by George Tenet and
CIA counterterrorism chief Cofer Black
to draw Rice's attention to the looming threat of al-Qaeda.
Tenet and Black insisted on a meeting with Rice
on July 10, 2001.
"Tenet had the NSA review all the intercepts,"
read the Post story. On June 30, a top-secret senior
executive intelligence brief contained an article
headlined 'Bin Laden Threats Are Real.' Tenet hoped
his meeting would shake Rice. He and Black
had two main points. First, al-Qaeda was going to
attack American interests, possibly in States...
Second, this was a major foreign policy problem that
needed to be addressed immediately. They needed
to take action that moment to thwart bin Laden."
The meeting, according to Tenet and Black, went
nowhere. "Tenet and Black felt they were not
getting through to Rice. She was polite, but
they felt the brush-off," says Woodward in his new book.

GOP tried to taint Foley story
Excerpt:
Congressman Tom Reynolds' (R-NY) chief of staff,
Kirk Fordham, tried to broker a secret deal
last Friday to get ABC News to cover up the worst
part of the Foley child predator scandal,
the lurid five-plus-page instant message chat
in which Foley asked a child to measure his penis
and then led the child into a detailed discussion
of masturbatory techniques.
Howie Kurtz (R-Whore) wrote about this in this
morning's Washington Post, though at the time
Kurtz didn't name names - he simply referred
to the deal-maker as a "former chief of staff" to
Mark Foley. It's subsequently been confirmed
to me, by Kurtz, that the individual who reportedly
tried to broker the cover-up deal was Congressman
Reynolds' own chief of staff (and former
Foley chief of staff), Kirk Fordham

Dear Bart, I rarely disagree with you, but your attack on Kathy for not watching TV is a little off.
I didn't attack her for not watching TV.
She has no business declaring that my
entertainment choices are inferior.
She is absolutely right.
No, she is 100% wrong.
A walk in the park is "getting a life", while
vegging in front of the box or
getting all worked up about some dumfucks on
the box is not.
There's nothing wrong with a walk in the park
- and I wouldn't call her stupid for doing it,
But a TV is a communication device, like the
internet, like a mailbox, like a telephone.
To suggest that a communication device has no
value is laughable.
It doesn't "sound superior" to say you don't watch
TV, it just sounds like a really good choice.

Excerpt:
House Speaker Dennis Hastert must do the only
right thing, and resign his speakership at once.
Either he was grossly negligent for not taking
the red flags fully into account and ordering a swift
investigation, for not even remembering the order
of events leading up to last week's revelations
-- or he deliberately looked the other way in
hopes that a brewing scandal would simply blow away.
Hastert has forfeited the confidence of the public
and his party, and he cannot preside over the
necessary coming investigation, an investigation
that must examine his own inept performance.

Bush Throws
Down the Gauntlet
by Robert Parry
Excerpt:
Bush is gambling that the Right's powerful media
apparatus, Republican organizational advantages
and the residual fear from 9-11 will trump the
Democrats' abilities to convince the American people
that Bush's vision represents a dire threat to
the future of their democratic Republic.
Bush unveiled his new strategy for holding onto
Republican congressional majorities this past week
by making his demand for expansive powers, including
the authority to deny habeas corpus rights
to detainees, the preeminent issue in the final
days before the congressional recess.
..the final five weeks of Campaign 2006 now appear
focused on Bush's stewardship of the "war on terror."
Bush has bungled this "war on terror," making
it the biggest political mistake of our lifetimes,
but the Democrats - still frozen in fear - can't
think of a way to take advantage of his bungling.
Hey Geldings, put Ol' Bart in charge for the next
five weeks.
I'll make Bush cry on TV and we'll take back
both houses and put his Fascist ass on trial.
