Excerpt: We have a president whose psychological makeup
inclines him to do as he pleases. Because Congress
has been cowed, and the judiciary stacked with
loyalists, he has gotten away with it - so far.
Meanwhile, Bush may start another war, with little
reference to the Congress or the UN, against Iran.
The commander of CENTO forces, Admiral William
Fallon is quoted as having said we "will not go to war
with Iran on my watch." Tough words; but should
the president order an attack on Iran, chances are Fallon
and others will do what they are accustomed to
doing, salute smartly and carry out orders.
There is an orderly remedy written into the Constitution
aimed at preventing a president from usurping
the power of the people and acting like a king;
the process, of course, is impeachment.
It's time for senior Republican senators to have a talk with our nine
year old president - an intervention.
I repeat my prediction that Bush will step down before 2009.

"Cheney always stands on the Republican side.
So I walked over and thought maybe he was being shy. I said, Dick, come on over and talk to the
Democrats too. We won't bite you. He reacted as has 9been reported). The irony is that the Republican Senators
who were there were the ones who told the press about it. I didn't say anything to anyone about it.
I think this is the first time I've publicly stated what happened."
--Sen. Patrick Leahy, about Cheney's "Go fuck yourself" incident
in the Senate, Link
"Leahy came over and put his arm around me.
And he didn't kiss me but it was close to it. So I flashed and I told him - I dropped
the F-bomb on him...It was heartfelt."
-- Dick Cheney, proud of his famous "Go fuck yourself" diplomacy, Link
Did the Democrats learn anything from this incident?
Hell no, they seem incapable of learning.
BTW, what are the results of Cheney's "Go
fuck yourself" diplomacy?
Hey, Bart, I'm still checking you out every day
or so when ya get a new page up ~
and still loving every hammer swing you do~
I don't know why some folks get carried away
with nit-picking on every frickin' word you say.
I accept everything you say; after all, it's yer frickin' page, eh? :)
And I actually agree about 99.9% and often 100%
:) I know, I gotta work on the .1% ; )
Anyhoo, just sending a quick howdy and hoping
you're doing ok. The wife and I moved from Korea and are now
in California, near San Fran/Sacramento area.
I wish we could've been here a month or so sooner so we could've
offered a place for the San Fran party; would've
loved to have met ya and yer missus, too~
Wanted to drop a weblink fyi to ya, though you
may already know about this dude; his stuff is from back in the 30's;
he saw bush and halliburton and cheney, et al.
He saw them 70 years before they crawled out from under their rock...
"What you have right now is partisanship on
Capitol Hill that quite often boils down to insults, insinuations, inquisitions and investigations
rather than pursuing the normal business of trying to pass major pieces of legislation, such
as appropriations bills, and to try to work in such a way as to demonstrate to the American people that
Congress and the White House can work together." -- Tony Snow, explaining
why Republicans spent $100M groping inside Clinton's zipper, Link
"What if I were to say to you: 'Those are Michael
Vick's dogs, and that was his property, and whatever he wants

a man to beat his wife?

Your website and radio show keep me sane (probably
others (dozens!!!) too).
"Mary Landrieu has offered an amendment saying
that the primary goal of US counterterrorism efforts should be
to kill or capture Osama bin Laden. What a pea-brained idea! Was the primary
effort in World War II to kill Hitler?"
-- Rush, who seems to be against the idea of killing or capturing bin Laden
Excerpt: Not so long ago, the Republican right expected
to dominate American politics for generations to come.
Karl Rove believed that his generation had achieved
a partisan realignment that would relegate Democrats
to irrelevance and overturn the progressive achievements
of the past century.
As for Mr. Kristol, he is no longer in a position
to accuse anyone else of extremism, if he ever was.
His chief allies have long been among the theocratic
evangelical rightists.
Liberals can only hope that crackpots like Mr.
Kristol maintain their influence over the Republicans
for a few more years, reducing the right-wing
party to a permanent minority.
As the Bush administration struggles to convince
lawmakers that its Iraq war strategy is working,
it has stopped reporting to Congress a key quality-of-life
indicator in Baghdad: how long the power stays on.
Ryan Crocker, the U.S. ambassador to Iraq, said
Baghdad residents could count on only "an hour or two a day"
of electricity. That's down from an average of
five to six hours a day earlier this year.
Craig
Under Saddam, they had electricity 24 hours a day.
Our forces probably could deliver power, but Bush needs chaos to continue
stealing their oil.
When will people realize that, for Bush and the BFEE and BIG OIL,
this has been one of the most successful military operations in history?
Of course, there is some collateral damage,
but with military families offering Bush son after son,
why should our Psychopath in Chief stop his gravy train?
Excerpt: FBI Director Robert Mueller said Thursday the
government's terrorist surveillance program was the topic
of a 2004 hospital room dispute between top Bush
administration officials, contradicting Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales' (R-Torture) sworn Senate testimony.
Jackson asked again: "We use 'TSP,' we use 'warrantless
wiretapping,' so would I be comfortable in saying
that those were the items that were part of the
discussion?" "The discussion was on a national NSA program
that has been much discussed, yes," Mueller responded.
On Tuesday, Gonzales repeatedly and emphatically
lied,
denying that the dispute was about the terrorist
surveillance program.
"I never heard of this person -- Jean Edward
Smith. There's a female first name and a male middle name. I have no clue here what the gender
is. John Edwards probably knows this person, but I don't." -- Rush, whose
father was a racial slur and his mother was a dirty crack
Subject: Catholics took about
sex abuse insurance?
Bart, I didn't know that there was insurance availible
for dumb ass decisions.
Who do you suppose is the carrier for the Church?
And if there's sexual abuse insurance, do they
have insurance availible for other instances?
DWI insurance, arson insurance, weedy lawn insurance
just in general dumb ass insurance.
Just doesn't make sense.
Mark in SD
How do they make money betting that the priests
won't
be
sued for sex abuse?
Excerpt: Army medical examiners were suspicious
about three bullet holes in Pat Tillman's forehead and tried without
success to get authorities to investigate whether
Tillman's death amounted to a crime, according to The Whore AP.
"The medical evidence did not match up with
the, with the scenario as described," a doctor told investigators.
The doctors said that the bullet holes were so
close together that it appeared he was killed from a mere 10 yards away.
Also:
In his
last words, Tillman snapped at a panicky comrade under fire to shut up
and stop "sniveling."
Army attorneys
sent each other congratulatory e-mails for keeping criminal investigators
at bay.
The three-star
general who lied about Tillman's death told investigators some 70 times
that he had
a bad memory and couldn't
recall details of his actions.
No evidence
at all of enemy fire was found at the scene - no one was hit by enemy fire,
nor was any government equipment
struck.
How much more evidence of murder is needed?
Did the enemy get within 10 yards of Tillman
and shoot him and nobody else?
Was he murdered for being a Democrat, and against
Bush's insanity?
It is inconceivable to me--a parent of a 6-year-old--that
anyone running for the highest office in the land
would be so out of touch with mainstream sex
education. My child is well aware, and has been for years,
of the need to protect certain body parts from
unwanted interference.
It reminds me of the girl who could read the billboard
advertising "The Vagina Monologues" but had to ask
her mother what a vagina was. If you are
old enough to read, I say you are old enough to understand what
the parts of your body are.
Perhaps if we spent more time and resources giving
our young children accurate information regarding sexual
issues, we could spend less public money bailing
out teens in trouble. Romney needs a serious reality check.
Mary in Seattle
Republicans are so ashamed of God's work - they
just can't stand sex or talk about sex.
Did Romney adopt?
Excerpt: Murtha said Wednesday he'll soon push legislation
that would order U.S. troop withdrawals
to begin in two months and predicted Republicans
will swing behind it this time.
Murtha's proposal will come as early as next week
and possibly again in September, when Petraeus
delivers a long-anticipated mish-mash of horseshit
on the war and members of Congress weigh
some $142 billion in defense spending requested
by Our Crooked President Bush. Murtha envisions
troop withdrawals to start in November and take
about a year to complete.
The House has passed similar proposals in the
past, including one that Bush vetoed. But Murtha predicts
this vote will be different because of mounting
voter frustration with the war and a lack of progress in Iraq.
Excerpt: Michael Moore says he's been served, He said
the Bush bastards served him with a subpoena regarding his trip
to Cuba during the making of his new film, "Sicko."
Moore filmed the trip as part of his film comparing the
U.S. healthcare system with government healthcare
systems in other countries.
He took three 9-11 emergency rescue workers to
Gitmo "because I heard the al-Qaida terrorists are receiving
free dental, medical, eye care, the whole deal,
and our 9-11 rescue workers can't get that in New York City."
For a decade, I've been begging to be out under oath by some asshole
so I could film it and broadcast it.
Looks like that might never happen, so this may be the next best thing.
This is a bluff. They do
not want to put Mike under oath, because he will
screw them to death.
Are they trying to charge him with attempting to get the dying 9-11
workers health care?
Mike, demand that you're put on live TV.
Why doesn't he just say, "I didn't pay attention
to the sign, and I want to apologize to Senator Obama."?
I mean, that's the most basic of PR moves.
This way, he looks like a gigantic prick, and a racist one at that.
Hey, I'm not complaining that he's sabotaging
his own campaign,
but man... how the hell did these people get
into power?

Excerpt: What do Conyers and Bush have in common? They
both think they can dis Cindy Sheehan and
count on gossip columnists like the Washington
Post's Dana Milbank to trivialize a historic moment.
Conyers was dripping with pretence as he met with
Sheehan, Rev. Lennox Yearwood and me Monday
in his office in the Rayburn building. I have
seldom been so disappointed with someone I had previously
held in high esteem. And before leaving, I told
him so.
Bart, I was banned from Democratic Underground
in 2004 because I was anti-Lieberman.
And I was a regular donor there too. No more.
It's just another private website.
I'm surprised that the Democratic Party let's
them use the party's name.

Excerpt: A woman was hit in the head by Tiger Woods' ball
when he sliced an approach at the British Open on Saturday.
She needed two stitches to close the wound.
Jennifer Wilson, from Northern Ireland, was treated by medical staff
after being driven away in a golf cart. Woods
had earlier apologized and given the 63-year-old an autographed glove.
He gave her an autograph?
Won't she always have the scar to remember him?
"We were standing 30 yards short of the green
and I said to Jennifer: 'Get your crash helmet on, Tiger's coming,'"
saiud her husband. "I could not believe it when
Jennifer then got 'clunked,' but he does go off line from time to time.
She just sank to her knees and we laid her down
flat. She's had two stitches and there was quite a lot of blood.
Eldrick is coming to Tulsa in ten days or sao,
and remember I met a guy who knows Tiger, so I'm thinking
about a humanitarian gesture: If Tiger poses
with a bartcop sticker, I'll lift the hex and he can start winning again.
Excerpt: Today's America is a much less free place than
the America of 2000. Following the 9-11 attacks,
Bush has, by word and by deed, erected an edifice
of repression here in the United States.
We've been living in it ever since. And it's
not a comfortable place.
1. The Ashcroft raids
2. Abuse of Material Witness Statute
3. Enemy combatants and "extraordinary renditions"
4. A boon for domestic spying
5. Listening in on lawyer-prisoner conversations
Those aren't the five I was expecting.
They picked a different five than I would have.
Sorry to keep harping on this, but I just had
to show you a typical thread on DU concerning Hillary.
It makes me wonder if they are infiltrated with
right wing Rove plants to drum up anti-Hillary sentiments.
Bart, this morning, Cspan host Susan was caught
with her repub panty's down around her ankles.
A Demo woman called in and ask her why she Susan"was
letting Repubs talk on every second call."
Like one for you, two for me. Her response
was "Independents were the same as Democrats and
to make the calls FAIR and BALANCED she would
let repugs have every second call.
If you ever watched her, she will cut off any
Dem or Indy who makes to much sense about the BFEE
Now I used to like Cspan, now its Cspam. That's
how I found out about you.
Writing or calling them would be a waste of time.
