Whistleblowers got a slap in the face today
Awwwww yes. What a wonderful world Bush has created for all of us. His right wing US Supreme Court today decided (5-4) that whistleblowers in government agencies are not CITIZENS when they expose employer wrongdoing while on the job. In other words, employees cannot expose something illegal while on the job and are not protected by the First amendment Right of this country. They can lose their job or be demoted and are not protected to receive compensation for it. So, knowing this, if a whistleblower is aware of his or her employer doing illegal activity, take as many documents as you can, then quit your job and take the appropriate measures that way! Today's ruling was tipped by Samuel Alito who is known for always siding with the government and/or corporation and rarely, if ever, sides with the employees or citizens of this country! Not surprising. Eventually, this US Supreme Court will erode our rights down to a point of non-existence which is very troubling. At some point, it will be illegal to sue your employer (or any employer for that matter!) even if your employer was responsible for the deaths of a 100,000 people! Disgusting. I hate the world under Bush.
True story: My Talk With a Right Wing Blowhard
On Saturday morning during this Memorial Day weekend, I had an appointment to get my wheel bearing and hub assembly replaced. In the few short weeks before my appointment, the humming from my tires had driven me almost insane, but because our family mechanic (I'm 38 and we've been taking our cars there to be fixed for 46 years! You do the math!) is a good one, I couldn't get in for a couple of weeks so I had to put up with the noise until then. I get there at 8am with my coffee in hand and there are familiar faces all around me. One of the workers is an old man named Dave and he only works on Saturdays for extra money. I like Dave. He is a Korean War veteran and he has stories galore, but the only 'fault' I can find with him is his undying love for George 'Wiretap' Bush. Dave loves him and everytime I'm there will say he would love to have a beer with Bush. So, on this particular morning our conversation wasn't any different. Every issue I brought up about the Bush Warpig's actions from recent weeks, Dave had some positive spin on it. Like for instance, I said to him, "Dave, how's that Police State going on in Washington DC?", and he replied, "Kay, Jefferson is a criminal and should be treated as such", in which I replied, "But Dave, prior to the raid on Jefferson's office, Tom Delay, Duke Cunningham and even Bill Frist were known to be doing some criminal activity but their offices were not raided! Doesn't that seem a little odd to you?". Because Dave wants so badly to have a beer with Bush, he pretty much ignored my questions but did say that Washington needs to be cleaned up (I agree but a better way would be to start with the republicans first!). Eventually, Dave pretty much clammed shut until an older woman joined in on the conversation. I don't know who she was but she obviously was a regular customer because of the way everyone reacted to her when she came in. She came in during the last part of our conversation and jokingly said that politics is something that no one should talk about in public because it causes so much chaos. We all laughed because we knew she was right. The conversation was light until I mentioned.........Rush Limbaugh. Oh. My. God. The old lady's head literally turned 360 degrees at the neck! I'm now looking at Satan. Nope, talking about all the Bush Warpig's lies, deceits, and distortions didn't provoke any ill feeling in her until I mentioned her Savior! Wow. Anyways, from that moment on, she considered me her enemy because, well, I hate Rush Limbaugh and she wanted me to believe how wonderful the man truly is. Vomit. She went on and on and on about him and even tried to convince me that Rush never did an illegal drug in his life! If she wasn't an old lady and wasn't so liked by everyone in the room, I would have grabbed her by the neck and would have shoved her face in all the 'Rush Shit', but I didn't. Instead, I let her spew. She then tells me how wonderful Bush is doing in Iraq and how Rush is right and blah blah blah.....when suddenly......my mechanic comes in to tell me that my car is finished. This woman asks me what was wrong with my car and I tell her. She laughs out loud and says to me whenever she hears a noise in her car, she just turns the volume up on the radio as high as it can go, so she doesn't have to listen to the noise anymore. I yelled, "Uh huh!!!!!!" Lady, in one sentence you just pretty much summed up my case against your Bush and Rush! You just said to me that instead of fixing the problem to get rid of the noise, you put a 'bandaid' on it so you don't have to deal with it! See? Democrats and liberals will fix the problem, whereas, you and your republican dolts will just put a bandaid on it hoping for the problem to go away! And that is why our country is so screwed up as well as everything that Bush has touched in the Middle East!". Long story short? She had no comeback. She sank into her chair and I left the place happy as a clam at high tide.

Bush has been a blessing to our country
Bush has been a blessing to our country because Americans now know what type of government they do NOT want....a Fascist dictatorship! The FBI raided the office of Representative Jefferson's office a few days ago which was an act that blurred the line between the Executive and Legislative branches of our government. Bush, who started a war in Iraq based on lies, believes that he is the law of the land and uses our FBI, CIA, and the National Guard like they are his own personal employees! He made a statement about the raid but acted like he had no clue the raid was going to happen...like he is innocent. Here's part of what he said:
"Our government has not faced such a dilemma in more than two centuries," he said in a statement. "Yet after days of discussions, it is clear these differences will require more time to be worked out."As if he didn't know it was going to happen! Oh please. Bush and the FBI have been working closely together for sometime now. Hell, when 9/11 was approaching, they were ignoring every sign that something big was going to happen to our country for God's sake. Bush has now sealed the documents that were taken from Jefferson's office. Seems all well and good (almost as if Bush is trying to protect Jefferson), but I think Bush and his Warpigs are now realizing that there are documents in Jefferson's records that could be damaging to Bush, Rove, and the Warpig! Many are now thinking that Jefferson was originally set up by the FBI and Jefferson could have proof in his possession that proves that Rove or someone else was behind the conspiracy to set Jefferson up by using the FBI to do it! Could be. As like any other major Constitutional crisis that Bush has caused or created since he was selected in 2000, we probably won't find out any time soon!!!!!!!!!! Bush has also been a blessing to our country because Americans are understanding how important a transparent, lawful government is for a democracy to go forward.

Bush is a f**king demeaning a**hole
May 25, 2006
Statement by the President Over the last several days, the House of Representatives and the Department of Justice have attempted to resolve a dispute over the execution of a search warrant on the Capitol Hill office of Congressman William Jefferson, who is under criminal investigation.
The Department of Justice's search was part of an important investigation of alleged public corruption. At the same time, the bipartisan leadership of the House of Representatives believes this search violated the Constitutional principle of separation of powers and the Speech or Debate Clause of the Constitution. They note these principles must be adhered to, even in the pursuit of a legitimate criminal investigation.
I recognize these are deeply held views. Our government has not faced such a dilemma in more than two centuries. Yet after days of discussions, it is clear these differences will require more time to be worked out.
So today I am directing the Department of Justice to seal all the materials recovered from Congressman Jefferson's office for the next 45 days and not to allow access to anyone involved in the investigation. I am also ordering the sealed materials to remain under the custody of the Solicitor General - who heads a separate office within the Justice Department and is not involved in the investigation.
This period will provide both parties more time to resolve the issues in a way that ensures that materials relevant to the ongoing criminal investigation are made available to prosecutors in a manner that respects the interests of a coequal branch of government. The Justice Department and the House of Representatives should continue their discussions and resolve this matter as quickly as possible.
Let me be clear: investigating and prosecuting crime is a crucial executive responsibility that I take seriously. Those who violate the law - including a Member of Congress - should and will be held to account. This investigation will go forward, and justice will be served. (This statement Bush has made sounds well and good on the surface, but you will notice as you read it, he is focusing on democratic "corruption" and ignoring the MASSIVE republican corruption coming out of the House and Senate for the past 6 years! Bush is a fucking, demeaning, asshole. Hell, in the first couple of paragraphs, he's acting like Hastert and Pelosi were making up the fact that we have laws in this country and those laws are to protect EVERYONE in it! What a pompous ass, Bush is. Now, many online are saying that there is a HUGE possibility that originally Jefferson was set up by the FBI (hence the reason it was videotaped) and if that is true, then Bush is lying when he says that the investigation into Jefferson is an important one. (It's one thing if Jefferson sought the money...but it's another if the FBI set up a sting to catch a democrat red-handed!!! Illegal!) Americans are not stupid and they are seeing who Bush really is...finally.)

I get why there is a 'Consitutional Crisis' now!
I just posted about how the Congress was in an uproar today over the FBI barging into Rep. Jefferson's office to take documents concerning a bribery charge against him (normally...Congressmen and women are protected by the FBI from doing such searches). Well, now I know why House Speaker Dennis Hastert was so vocal today and holding press conferences to tell Americans what the Executive branch has done! Why? He's is being investigated by the FBI for his role in the Jack Abramoff Indian casino bribery case! I knew it. I knew the Congress was acting this way (all patriotic and stuff) because they were guilty of something. There is always a reason and there had to be a reason because THIS SAME CONGRESS HAS IGNORED ALL THE OTHER 'CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS' IN THIS COUNTRY FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS! Just once, I want to see one of the House Members or Senators in hand cuffs. Just once. It will make my day.
What is a 'Constitutional crisis' to the Congress?
Apparently, the only Constitutional crisis in the eyes of the Congress is the one where the FBI broke into House Representative Jefferson's office and took documents!!!! That's it. Yup, after 6 years of the Bush Administration and alllllllllllll the laws they've broken since they were given the presidency in 2000...the storming of a Congressman's office is it. Yup, spying on Americans illegally, starting wars on lies, outing a CIA operative in a time of war, and 750 signing statements which allows Bush to ignore 750+ laws of this country, well, the Congress feels breaking into one of their own is above all of that and far more important for the American people. Incredible. Yes, I know that the Congress (as well as Americans!) should be free of abuse by the Executive branch, but if the Congress had been paying attention the last 6 years, they would have noticed that Bush and his Warpigs have been giving them the finger by RENDERING THE CONGRESS USELESS for years now for God's sake!! The Warpigs have made clear that they will do what they want, when they want, and with who they want and don't need the damn Congress to be there when they decide to. Rendering the Congress useless and forming a 'Unitary Executive' (dictator) for OUR DEMOCRACY CALLED AMERICA........is a CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS!!!!! Not the breaking into a Congressman's office, idiots. What all of this proves to me is that we have the most corrupt Congress in the history of our nation and they are all nervous about having the same thing happen to them. They're feeling guilty and are protecting themselves, because if they were feeling patriotic and feeling the need to stand up for the rights of the people and themselves, well, THEY WOULD HAVE DONE IT A LONG TIME AGO against the most corrupt and evil Administration in our history. I spit on them....all of them (there's a few I like but not many). As far as Jefferson is concerned....resign your position and get the hell out of Dodge and take the rest of the dirty rotten scumbags in the Congress with ya (and I don't care what party they are a part of either!). Go!
Pat Robertson defies logic! Again!
I don't know why I'm even spending another thread on Pat Robertson because I'm more interested in what the Bush Warpigs are doing to our nation or what the Warpigs are planning to do next than what Wacko Robertson is doing. I think the reason I am writing about Pat again is because most neocons in this country believe people like Pat (and Bush) because on the surface they appear religious, so to the neocons they think they can trust them. Well, the neocons (and Pat and Bush) are the reason why our country is so screwed up right now! They spread their lies, deceits, and distortions without batting an eye. So, here I am again talking about the Bible-Thumping-No-Good-For-Nothing-Liar. He is NOW (I yelled that) stating that he (yes...76 year old 'he'!) can bench press 2,000 lbs!!!!! Not only does God talk to Pat using the latest in 'God Technology' to alert Pat of upcoming tsunamis and hurricanes, but now Pat wants us to believe that he is Atlas and can bench press a rhinosaurus! I don't know the kid's name, but there is a college student out there who has set the bench press record and this kid pressed @ 1,400 lbs. and burst his cataracts in the process!!! So, how's Pat Robertson looking after downing his MIRACLE SHAKES (oh please) and after bench pressing 2,000 lbs? Cataracts are fine...no broken bones or organ failure do to bleeding internally after an organ burst from the pressure. Wow. Okay then, that explains it once and for all: PAT ROBERTSON IS A FRAUD, GOD DOESN'T SPEAK TO PAT ROBERTSON, AND THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL AFTER DRINKING A MILKSHAKE.......THAT ANYONE......COULD BENCH PRESS 2,000 lbs. WITHOUT SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THEIR BODY!!!!!!!!!! PAT ROBERTSON NEEDS TO BE STRUCK BY LIGHTENING TO END THE MADNESS. THE END.

No one listened to the Catholics or other Christians...
Well, it's official! The numbers are in. The Da Vinci Code made $77 million (update: $240 million) at the box office this weekend and the numbers are still rising. The American Family Association (see my sidebar link on the right to view their web under "American Taliban" sites) was going crazy to convince their people to not go and see this movie because Dobson said it was full of untruths (well, it was fiction so I'm not sure where Dobson was going with that...idiot), but, he did want his people to purchase a video entitled, "The Da Vinci Delusion" to convince them of that. Well, no one listened to him. And then there was the Catholics. Since 1200 AD, the Catholics have been rewriting and interpreting the Bible to satisfy their own agenda and were absolutely horrified that this movie was coming out! (Catholics apparently don't like free thinkers) They tried everything (including Damnation and rubbing their Rosaries)......but nothing worked. Awwwww. Americans and people abroad went and saw the film and from the reviews....most were spellbound by it. Well, there you go. Some people would rather form their own opinions rather than listen to a bunch of wackos who are hell bent on distorting the truth or reality of the situation. Even though the Da Vinci Code is fiction, in my opinion it better explains Mary Magdalene's role than what the Catholics gave her which was a prostitute. From the looks of this weekend, I think people agree!
Saddam Hussein's Benz bought...Osama still on the run
Do you remember right after we illegally invaded Iraq in March of 2003 the looting of stores and museums began? Well, apparently, our soldiers were also 'stealing' stuff from Iraq at the same time! Okay, First Sgt. Willaim Von Zeal didn't actually steal Hussein's Mercedez Benz, but he did find the vehicle parked in one of the luxury neighborhood driveways there and cut a deal with an Iraqi to get it. It hasn't been verified if it is one of Hussein's vehicles or not (though Federal Customs agents in the US has seized it), but the thought of our soldiers in a war zone buying and stealing stuff makes my skin crawl. In fact, when the looting began, I went online and posted that I wouldn't be surprised if tons of American CEOs now have in their offices pieces of Iraqi history that was stolen from the Iraqi museums by our soldiers. Of course, the neocons in this country said that no American would do ever that. Uh huh. Well, now we know that some American soldiers were pilfering and not fighting like Bush and his Warpigs would like for us to believe (hey, by that point, the oil wells in Iraq had been captured and secured so no need to continue the 'war front' unless the American population needs to be reminded we're at war!). This could be why the insurgency tripled! With our soldiers pilfering and cutting deals with the locals to buy stuff, no one was watching what was really happening. That's my take on it. Oh yeah, and then there's the video of our soldiers filling up an above ground pool and swimming. War is so much more fun these days with the wealthiest Administration ever in the history of our nation running it. Interesting, our soldiers can find the good deals on the goods in Iraq, especially if they are Saddam Hussein's, but they have yet to find Osama. Good grief.
One illegal gets republican backing to stay in America
If anyone thinks that the illegal immigration debate has NOTHING to do with skin color (hence the backlash against the brown Mexicans), then think again! Karl Rove stated that he wanted to make illegal immigration the talking point for republicans for the mid-term election knowing that the cannonball-headed neocons would take the racist-football and run with it! And run with it they have! So, I find it interesting (and to prove my point that skin color is the issue here in the immigration debate) that republican Senator Mike Dewine is standing behind 18 year old, white skinned Manuel Bartch to stay in the country because of the 'oopsey doopsey' Bartch encountered after his stepfather didn't adopt him when he came to this country on a temporary visa in 1997. Well, I wonder how many other illegal immigrants (especially those brown skinned ones) have a similiar story! I bet many! But because an illegal has white skin.......well......THE REPUBLICANS WILL STAND UP FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT TO HAVE AMERICAN STATUS. I find it very racial to say the least.
Iraq War veteran stabs wife to death
Not only did he kill her but he stabbed her 71 times with a meat cleaver to do it! Wow. How many more young soldiers are coming home and having fits of rage? I don't even want to know the number. I'm sure it would scare me if I knew the exact number. It is known, though, that quite a few soldiers have come home from Iraq only to take their life a short time later. Sad, very sad. War is endless because not only do our soldiers go over seas to fight and leave their family behind, they also come home eventually and bring with them the trauma of their experiences. As a liberal, I am against war. I don't care if the war is started under a republican or a democrat, war is wrong to me and it is never the answer. The repurcussions from war is endless and I worry about our soldiers and their families with having to deal with the effects it is having on their loved one. The fact that our military is now recruiting individuals with emotional disorders (bipolar, depression) concerns me too. If they join the military already not in touch with themselves, what will happen when he or she hits the battlefield and then comes home? Oh boy. I see our future as kind of scary because the Bush Warpigs want endless war to line the pockets of their corporate whore friends. They aren't thinking of the long term effects war will have on this generation. In fact, I don't think they care about it. What I do see is a generation of mentally disturbed veterans roaming our streets and families of these soldiers having to deal with it...alone.

Iraq has a new government!!! Iraqis not happy
With Iraq forming their new government today, you'd think the Iraqis would be rejoicing and singing "Hallelujah!" in the streets. Well some people are and they are American, meaning, the Bush Warpigs are thrilled about the news today but that's because they're hoping this will bring their approval ratings up. They want Americans to chant, "Iraq has a new government! Victory in Iraq! Victory in Iraq!", but the reality is.....the key positions in the government haven't been filled and the Iraqis are not happy about it. Oh boy. How much longer will we live in Orwell's world where war equals peace and new government equals not even close? I think the answer to that question is....when the Bush Warpigs leave the building(s) in Washington, DC.
Would someone please shove a Pinata down Bill O'Reilly's big hateful mouth!?!
Jees. I can't stand Bill O'Reilly of Fox News. He's nothing but an asshole. The man threatens everybody....everybody. Can you imagine being so f**ked in the head that you threaten anyone who disagrees with your political party or your Warpigs in the White House just because you think you're that important?!! He's threatened the French, he's threatened the island of Aruba, he's threatened Californians, he's turned off the microphones of 9/11 family members, he's told people to shut up on the air, and he is now threatening Mexico!!! Oh for the love of the Spaghetti Monster.... I hope Bill O'Reilly walks barefoot out in his yard this weekend and gets an aggressive infection after bacteria attacks the cut on the bottom of his foot! Let's hope he loses more than his foot! And if he only loses his foot, let's hope a liberal, democrat, or a moderate republican is nearby to shove it down O'Reilly's throat!!!!!!!!!!
The religious LEFT is getting noticed again
I'm going to be honest. I'm not religious. I find the Bible to be bunch of stories written over a period of time (hence the repeat stories) and then rewritten by the Catholics from the 1200's on to fit their own agenda....but....that doesn't mean I am against anyone wanting to practice their religion or their beliefs. I believe in the Freedom of Religion and always have but I don't like anyone to impose their beliefs on me. I don't consider myself an Atheist either because I've had spiritual moments in my life, but I do consider myself to be more Pagan where I have a deep connection to nature/Universal things (moon, sun, stars, planets, air, water, soil etc.) and that is where I find comfort. The past few years watching the religious right take over our country and acting like a bunch of bullies has really turned me off as it has others. 90% of our country is religious and/or spiritual, so it has really ticked me off (and many other rational people) that the right wingers consider everyone who is a liberal or a democrat as being 'soiled' and 'of sin'. Poppycock. If you read the words under my blog title, I've listed out all the things the right wing wackos have done in the past 6 years and it is the religious right who wants more than that out of them! Hell, the religious right would be happy if a gay/lesbian was murdered on a cable channel each week. They'd be happy to watch women walking into an abortion clinic only to be gunned down by an 'invisible' gunman. The religious right is wrong and Americans know it. What the religious right stands for is not what mainstream America stands for. The religious left is making a comeback now, not that they ever left, but after watching the actions of the religious right, especially in the last few years now, many Lefties are coming forward and publically saying that they are religious and spiritual too.....but in a loving, caring, and peaceful kind of way. Love it. Now, if only the religious right could take on those kinds of beliefs!
Has the US placed bandits at the Iranian border?
It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the US military or our intelligence agencies have sent bandits or squads to the border between Iraq and Iran to drum up trouble. Why? Because the Bush Warpigs outed one of our CIA agents who was part of a group that was in Iran spying to find out what Iran was doing in the nuclear field! Our only chance to know has been squashed and now we have nothing to rely on (and that is why Bush is lying when he says Iran is 'doing this' or 'doing that' because we just don't know what Iran is doing!). Because Bush and his Warpigs want to get into Iran (oil!!! tons of it!!!), I can see them putting bullies on the border to get Iran to retaliate or to start something with us. Years ago on the AOL message board I posted that our CIA does things in secret across the planet and we never know really where they are....except....when there is an excursion somewhere on the planet orchestrated by them and it rears it's ugly head on the news! Remember when the ex-Lebanese prime minister was assassinated and Bush immediately held a press conference here in the US and condemned Syria for the killing? Well, my immediate thought was where was our CIA when this assassination happened? What if we had CIA members in Lebanon and they assassinated the ex-prime minister just so the Bush Warpigs could crack down on Syria? Could be but we'll never know, will we? This type of secret killings or bullying is why many in the Middle East don't like us (as well as others across the planet). They know the truth and Americans do not. Those like myself who take an objective view of everything realize that America is not innocent all the time. We do and have done things that are shameful (think back to the Reagan years and the death squads down in South America! Raping and killing nuns for Christ's sake!). I love my country but I do not like it when my leaders do atrocious things in my name!

Pat Robertson listening in on the 'God Surveillance Program'
Is Pat Robertson the Director of the "God Surveillance Program" in Washington, DC or did Pat Robertson mistakenly run over his head with his front tire while checking to see if his muffler was okay as he was backing out of the driveway today? Jees. The man is obviously delusional. I suppose with all that lying and deceiving he does to his 700 Club viewers every week to convince them to hand over their fortunes to by their way into Heaven, one is bound to start getting weather forecasts from God! If Pat Robertson wants to save our country, I think he should get back in his car, put it in reverse, hang out his driver's side door to check his muffler as the car is rolling backwards down the driveway, and then run over his head again, but this time, I think he should hit the break and let the tire sit on his head for a couple of hours. This simple act would make our country safer in say....two hours. Let's hope God tells him to do it.
Republican Senators have a 'closet' meeting to ban gay marriage
Well, it's official! The republican party stands for hatred toward others, lying, deceiving, conniving, and doing everything in secret! Of course, the meeting today could have been done in front of the cameras for Americans to see the debate, but instead, the republicans, who are always upset that gays could be in any closet you open, went into a closet to conduct their meeting. Huh? It's okay when the republicans go into a closet, but God forbid, any other American do so! Meanwhile, Bill Frist was jumping up and down and clapping his limp-wristed hands together because he has scheduled the Senate to vote on the admendment to ban gay marriage on June 5th. Bill Frist loved brain dead Terri Schiavo but he hates two living breathing people of the same sex who love each other. And they call themselves the "Party of God". Liars. The good news out of all of this? Gays are all the republican party have at this point to keep them from sinking! Americans don't trust them anymore, and just like the 2004 election, they'll bring the gay issue up as much as they can so they can stir up their idiotic, robotic, Koolaid drinking, "we can't think for ourselves", religious wacko base. It's all they have and it makes me happy. When Americans weigh illegally spying on Americans, starting wars on false pretenses, outing a CIA operative's identity during a time of war, a $7 trillion dollar debt level, more tax cuts for the uberwealthy, $3.00 gas, Hookergate and an approaching attack on Iran, against the gay/gay marriage issue.......Americans will know which is more important and will vote accordingly. Gays don't hurt our country or marriages but Republicans and divorces do hurt our country and marriages! In the meantime, it's hysterical watching the faggy republicans doing everything in their power to divert America's attention away from their criminality and their destruction of America!!! Of course, there are gay republicans out there who are probably standing to attention and hailing the republicans for doing what they did today. Not surprising because republicans don't like America being a free country. They want someone at the top of the food chain spewing what is right and what is wrong because they don't have the capacity to do what is right for themselves so they let others decide for them instead! They're pathetic. Hat tip to Russ Feingold though for standing up today against Arlen Specter by bringing attention to TRANSPARENCY and for pointing out the fact that this is a political move by the republicans and that there are more important issues to be debating!!!!!
Attorney General Gonzales unclear if his grandparents were illegal immigrants
I love it. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said yesterday that he has no idea if his grandparents were illegal immigrants or not. Really? Wow. Alberto never asked his mother and father, "When did Grammy and Grandpa come to America? Where did they live when they came? What did they do for work? Did they have a hard time fitting in upon their arrival? Did they ever learn English? And....what was their story for wanting to come to America?". Never once. It never came up. Huh. Liar. I am adopted and know more about my adoptive family's history and my birth family than Gonzales knows about his own bloodline for God's sake! There is something really wrong when a grown man, who is off Mexican descent, is the Attorney General of the United States, and who is in the back pocket of this criminal Administration, has no idea of his own history. There is something fishy about that and I think I know why. Alberto Gonzales knows that he is LYING to cover up the fact that his grandparents CAME HERE ILLEGALLY and he knows THAT HIS FAMILY SURVIVED AND LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER! Hey, when you're part of a Fascist Dictatorship Regime and you want to convince OTHER AMERICANS that building a wall on the border and using our National Guard to take control of it....well....you can't be admitting that your own family members also came scaling across the border and were hungry, tired, thirsty and needing shelter after they got here and they all turned out well! Gonzales wants us to believe: Mexicans = Bad for national security. Yup, SELECTIVE MEMORY IS WORKING WELL FOR THIS ADMINISTRATION. Asshole(s).
"Fairly credible evidence" is another diversion from the White House corruption & criminality
I love it. The Pentagon a few days ago released new video (3 extra frames of video I may add) to convince the American public that the conspiracy theorists have been wrong all along. They were also hoping that the video would divert America's attention away from their criminal activity. They're learning that Americans are smarter than that. Well, let's just say that my father, who believes a plane hit the Pentagon, after viewing this latest video is scratching his head now because he doesn't see a plane. The Pentagon has created more conspiracies. Love it. When the 'plane' video didn't work, the media is now reporting that the FBI is investigating a farm to find Jimmy Hoffa's remains because of 'fairly credible evidence'. Who cares! With all that is going on in the world, wouldn't you think the FBI would be working on more important investigations? Wow, now we know why Osama hasn't been caught -- they're not looking for him and I bet they are ignoring 'fairly credible evidence' on his whereabouts too! I wouldn't be surprised if the CIA is investigating the Hindenberg fire and I wouldn't be surprised if the NSA is now researching whether or not flossing is good for our gums! I've had it with incompetence. If any of the individuals in this administration worked for my business, I would have fired their asses a long time ago.
Truthout.org is standing behind their Rove Indictment story
Truthout.org reported this past weekend that Patrick Fitzgerald met with Rove's attorney for a good part of Friday, May 12th. Truthout.org said that their sources were telling them that Rove will face indictments and then released another piece hours later indicating that Rove was actually indicted on Friday, May 12th. The left wing blogs spent some time talking about it (most of us were hopeful that Truthout was correct! After 2 years of waiting for Rove to be held accountable for his role in the outing of Valerie Plame's identity, it was good to hear!) and the right wing blogs spent some time disputing the claim of the left wing blogs. Most of us who have spent years tuning into Truthout.org and know that this site is almost always dead-on right. They are well connected to insiders in Washington. Yes, from time to time they do give Cindy Sheehan space to post her thoughts, but mostly, they are concerned about the direction of the country and have wonderful journalists that keep us all well-informed.
Well...Truthout never took their original stories about Rove down and the mainstream media were scratching their heads about it (meaning...they were more inclined to believe the right wing blogs in that the story was false). It turns out that Truthout did receive insider infomation and Rove will be indicted at some point, though, the public may not be informed of it right off. Patrick Fitzgerald can keep any indictment secret if an indictment might come in conflict with the current court case. My hope is that Fitzgerald holds a press conference next week (or tomorrow!) to let the American people know that this Administration is finally being held accountable. Thankya Jeesuhs!
General Michael Hayden: spying to "connect the dots"
General Michael Hayden's nomination hearing will begin today on Capital Hill and I'm leary about it. He won't tell us anything new and will use Orwellian words to deny that his 'terrorist surveillance program' is illegal. Hayden has said that the government is spying to 'connect the dots', which sounds good and wonderful, but let's not forget that this is the same person, who heard the words 'Tomorrow is zero hour' and '...the match begins tomorrow' being said between TWO KNOWN TERRORISTS (who ended up being two of the hijackers on 9/11), the day before 9/11/01 and didn't interpret what was being said until 9/12/01. So, with all the listening in the world and with all the gathering of our phone calls (to create the largest database on the planet and in the history of it too)........it won't matter in the end. They won't be able to stop anyone who wants to attack us even if the enemy lays it out while on the phone. Because even if they hear key words being said on our telephone lines, it could take days, weeks, or months to figure out what is the intention of the callers is.......and by that time it could be too late. Like I've said before, the job of the CIA is to monitor activity outside the United States so I don't understand why if the CIA knows of KNOWN AL-QAIDA SUSPECTS USING THE PHONE (Bush is always touting that they are listening to al-Qaida! Why not round them up if they know they are using the phone! Jees), why they don't start over there to listen in! Why do they have to round up all calls made in our country since 9/11/01? I think it's because our government is incompetent. They're backtracking. They have no idea what they're doing (they've fired everyone who doesn't agree with their sinister agenda and are left with 'yes' people) and even if they hear the words, "death to America", "bomb", or "big wedding/big match", they won't understand it because of the lack of exact information, so in the end........we won't be any safer than we were on September 10, 2001. The reason why Bush's telephone surveillance program is so secretive is because they are using it to not listen in to terrorists....they are using it to listen in to political enemies and to anyone who doesn't agree with their ideologies. That is illegal on it's head, so today's hearing of Hayden won't get to the bottom of it. The program is so secret that Hayden will likely say that to to avoid having to answer anything about it! Hayden, Gonzales, and Bush have a whacked sense of what the 4th Admendment of the Constitution states. They are rewriting everything and Bush is giving himself permission to deny it's existance by using signing-statements. These guys are committing treason and are traitors to the very essense of our democracy!!! I despise them one and all!
Are our soldiers in Iraq killing in cold blood?
Last year, our Marines killed a 3 year old in Iraq in cold blood along with 14 other members of her family. What on Earth could a 3 year old have done to deserve to be killed execution style? Nothing. Can you imagine this? Imagine a 3 year old looking at the end of a gun and the last person she sees in her life is an American soldier ready to kill her! Three Marines have been relieved of their duty over this, which is good, but what emotional scars are they going to have knowing what they did to this poor child and her family? Oh boy. Remember, our soldiers will be home one day and just like after the Vietnam war...our streets may not be so safe for awhile. Our soldiers are tired. Many have been deployed 3 or 4 times and they miss their families. I'm not making excuses for them because killing a whole family in cold blood deserves no excuses, but Bush is using them too much and it is starting to show. Our soldiers are seeing the Iraqi people as the enemy when they should not be. The Iraqis have never hated Americans....it's their leaders who have had a problem with us. We must never forget that. But...with atrocious shootings such as this one in Haditha, the Iraqis will be forever be scorned and will over time hate America....and God forbid....could be chanting 'death to America' at some point! Al-Qaida was not in Iraq before we illegally invaded and occupied that country. The knowledge of killing a whole family in cold blood is fueling the hatred. The insurgency for the most part is the Iraqis who are fighting for their voice (Saddam had the country divided into 3 sects: the Kurds, the Shiites, and the Sunnis...and this kept them from fighting) and for control of the country they love. American soldiers are not helping squash the violence if they are participating in murder themselves! Americans have always been the calming factor for any nation upon our arrival, but not this time or ever. We illegally invaded on lies created by the Bush Warpigs, have allowed this country to disinegrate, and now our soldiers are doing things that is only adding to the violence instead of calming it. No more do we hear the words, "Here come the Americans!", because Bush has tainted our reputation big time. The world doesn't trust us and it's too bad. We are great nation and our soldiers have always reflected that, but having criminals run our country is having a trickled down affect. It's time for us to leave Iraq and let the Iraqis rebuild their nation. We have stolen their jobs, refused to give them electricity and water for any amount of time, and we are killing their people in cold blood. It wouldn't be 'cutting and running'. We have over stayed our welcome. We need to get out just to save our once great country's reputation! We are Americans.........NOT BARBARIANS.

Where are the windows on the 'plane' that hit the Pentagon?
Here's a question I have about the 'plane' that hit the Pentagon on 9/11: WHERE ARE THE WINDOWS ON THE PLANE? It occurred to me today while I was working that the grey streak in the video that the Pentagon says is a 'plane' (but the 'plane' landed in the parking lot doing 5-600 mph and hit the Pentagon straight on and never broke up as it hit cars and trees!) there are no windows for the cockpit or for the passenger's seats at all in the footage! What the hell. I've been having a hard time with the missile theory because I can't explain where the passengers went, but after seeing this latest video, I still have questions about it. How do we know that Flight 77 wasn't instructed to land somewhere else and the passengers have been detained and are still being detained? Huh, sounds absurd doesn't it? But I don't see a plane in the footage either! If they are being detained, it's possible that they think they were kidnapped by the hijackers on that day (which a few were on that plane) and still think that today right at this moment! Hey, it's a theory but after watching the grey-missile-like thingy hit the Pentagon in the video, it makes you wonder! And why did reporter, Jim Mikilicheski (sorry...have no idea how to spell his last name!), say moments after the 'plane' hit (he was at the Pentagon after it got hit) that there was no way a plane hit the Pentagon and why an Air Force sargaent at the scene told him the same thing because when they looked at the hole in the Pentagon the size of the impact hole didn't match up in their eyes? Hmmmm....a lot can be learned about that day just by the first reaction of people on the ground. And where are all the other videos from local businesses that the Pentagon snatched up within an hour of the Pentagon being hit? Huh? Where are they and why won't they release those ones? Quite a few of the 9/11 victim's families want the tapes released too so these aren't odd questions! Is the Pentagon conspiring to keep the truth from Americans once again? I think so. I still have tons of questions about that day and I'm sure I will never learn the answers because this Admin is one of the most secretive and I'm sure they've destroyed the evidence. (Let's not forget that most of the FAA's conversations that day with NORAD and other government officials ended up destroyed and placed in trash cans)

"We're not listening..." says Bush
Well, what do you know! Bush basically said today that he is keeping a record of all of America's phone calls, but he's not listening to them! Oh really? So what he is saying is that the government is just recording all our calls and using our calls to determine patterns (hey, if you call that Chinese take out place way too much....you could trigger a red flap you know! You terrorist you!).......but if they hear the words "nuke, kill, Death to America", well, they're not listening so it doesn't matter what you say! Oh for the love of the Spaghetti Monster....does he really think we're stupid? Is it possible that Bush and his Incompetent Warpigs know that there are thousands of al-Qaida terrorists in our nation and realize now that they didn't secure our borders right after 9/11 like they should have.....and are now backtracking by recording everyone's phone calls to cover their incompetent asses? I think so! Only an incompetent leader would do something like that. Like I've always said, even if there is a terrorist attack after 2008 I will blame the Bush Regime FOR NOT DOING WHAT WAS BEST FOR AMERICA'S SAFETY AFTER 9/11/01 BY NOT SECURING OUR BORDERS, OUR COASTLINES, AND OUR PORTS! They will be to blame and no one else. They're listening to their opposition and not the terrorists because they can relate to the terrorists and not us.
When an indictment is coming...bring out the 9/11 footage!
Rove is acting all tough in public, but word behind the scenes is that he is nervous because HE WILL BE FACING INDICTMENTS here soon. Of course, the main stream media is discounting Truthout.org 's Jason Leopold's scoop that Rove was actually indicted on Friday, May 12th. I wouldn't be surprised if Rove's attorneys asked Fitzgerald to hold off on publically announcing his charges so Rove get ready for it (and to give his agenda to the other Warpigs in the White House for his absense). What is really irritating me is that the main stream media isn't looking into what Leopold said! They are just agreeing with the right wing blogs and other right wing sources (Washington Post) that there is no truth to Rove being indicted here soon. So..... ...it made sense that the Pentagon would release more footage of the plane hitting the Pentagon on 9/11 to divert Americans away from all issues! In my case, it didn't work. I watched the video today and.....I still can't see a damn plane! I really don't believe the missile theory either but how the hell could a 757 land on the ground with cars in the parking lot in it's path and hit the Pentagon at ground level without breaking apart first? I'm sorry, but this new video has made it worse. People are still going to question it and bringing it out today does not take away from the fact that Rove is going to be indicted and Bush is going to still lose approval rating points every day until he starts coming clean with the American people! Jees.

Rove Monster on Immigration: 'We're doing a heck of a job"
"We're doing a heck of a job". (translation: "we have no idea what we're doing, but we're hoping that we appear on the surface to look like we know what we're doing, and hopefully we've convinced the American people of that") Have we had enough? I have!!!!! (raising my hand high over the crowd, jumping up and down in the midst of the American idiots who thinks Bush is doing a wonderful job!)
Bush nightly...
I truly believe this is what Bush looks like at 11:30 every night after a whole day of lying to the nation. Normally, if I had a person in my life who looked like this I would try to coax him or her into therapy, but for some reason, I want Lunkhead to trip over his coffee table and smash his head into the wall and then give him another one to throw back!
The Commi Bastards are Spying on ABC, NYT, & WaPo!
When I think of a paranoid person, I think of a person squating down in the corner of his or her home with eyes wide open, sweat pouring down the face, and their hands pulling their hair out because every noise around them is making them think 'they're coming to get me!". Well, now when I think of paranoid, I think of the president and vice president of the United States. Why? Because they're paranoid. Why? Because they are so consumed with not allowing their sinister plot against America to come out into the open that they are now resorting to spying on the phone calls of reporters at ABC, the New York Times, and the Washington Post. The Paranoid Warmongers are listening to these phone calls TO FIND OUT WHO IS LEAKING INFORMATION TO PRESS ABOUT THE ILLEGAL THINGS THE BUSH WARPIGS ARE DOING! Incredible! I'm so furious with these guys that I could vomit. I've had it with them. They campaigned on a big fat lie in 1999 and 2000 and as soon as they WERE SELECTED to run this country in 2001..........they've been lying ever since. They hate America and they hate Americans. Everything about them proves that. Giving the finger to the press, telling members of Congress to FUCK OFF, calling reporters ASSHOLES, debting our country to the hilt, ignoring intelligence so our country will be attacked, creating fake wars by creating fear and using that fear to get what they want, and PLAYING GUITAR while our FELLOW AMERICANS were drowning in their freakin attics!!!! I hate them. They are the wrong type of person to give power to. I mean really, would you allow your son or daughter to be baby sat by the KNOWN pedophile next door?!!! Dumb ass Americans have given these guys way too much power. Who do I blame equally for all the bullshit in our country since January 2001? The Congress. Republicans have controlled all levels of government........and starting with the Congress....their shit has rolled downhill. Bastards! Everything they've done has been to hurt Americans....not help them (not country the top 5% of this country which are those people making $150,000 plus). Have you had enough? I have dammit. The republican party is always touting how Communists are the enemy of America, but look what the Bush Commie and the Cheney Commie are doing: SPYING ON AMERICANS BECAUSE THEY ARE PARANOID AND SCARED OF THE OPPOSITION. Sounds very Communist and Fascist to me!!! They've turned our nation into a Communist Fascist States of the Corporate Ruled. It's over....our country that we all grew up with and loved.....is gone. We can't trust our own damn country anymore. Bastards.

THIS IS HOW I'M FEELING TODAY.......

The LLNL is the government agency viewing my blog
I found out which government agency is viewing my blog. It's the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California. Sounds innocent enough, but after I went to see what they were all about, I quickly realized they are connected to the National Security Agency! (The official site is linked in the title above) Now, why would they want to look at my blog? Hmmmm...could it be because I have written quite a few posts about 'Divine Strake' which is the 700 ton nuclear bunker-busting bomb that our military is going to test in the Nevada desert in June? Could be...or it could be that I compare Bush and Hitler a lot too. Just in case I need to leave the country fast, I have a bag packed. LOL
NSA is snooping on my blog
At the bottom of my blog there is an icon that reads, "Site Meter", and it tracks how many people are viewing my site etc. This meter is actually pretty cool because not only is it tracking the viewers, but it also gives me a ton of other information about them (none of it personal....so don't worry) such as what part of the country or the world each person is from (no addresses...just location), what IP service they are using, and how many minutes they are staying on. Well, today I decided to click on 'organizations' to see what the hell that was all about and I found that the United States Government has visited my site (you can see it above...I've linked to the page) about 1% of the time! Yeah, the Feds love my little 'insanity' corner of the Internet! I haven't investigated further to see if the government is spending any time on my blog but it would be interesting to find out. If it comes up 0:00 then I will know that the Feds quickly tapped onto my blog and kept going which would be very similiar to what the NSA is doing with our phone records right now. I bet because of the content of my blog (which is full of 'key words' if you know what I mean LOL).....their computers are being activated to 'look' at my blog. Creepy stuff to say the least, but I also feel a sense of accomplishment, because I've spent years online bashing Bush and the rest of his Warpigs and it's great to finally be getting some attention from the very people who I despise. Huh, my own little online protest is working after all these years...good for me. :-)
Tony Snow's 23 minute 'gaggle' (can you say meltdown?)
Tony Snow was to officially start doing his televised press conferences on Monday, May 15th, but Friday he decided to do an informal 'gaggle' with the White House Press Corps and.....flunked. AOL is reporting that Tony had a 'meltdown' within the 23 minutes he had with the Press. I knew it. I've been hoping all along that the 'fair and balanced' Fox News host would cry on his first day....well....he didn't cry but the Press had him backed into a corner and he spent most of the 'gaggle' googley-eyed! He didn't know the answers to most of the questions. To be honest, I wouldn't want to be in his shoes because I'm not a good liar! How is Tony going to get through all of this? Just because he is connected to Fox News, which is an extension of the Oval Office, doesn't mean he was the best pick for the job! It's too bad this Administration wants to keep the country in the dark, because even if Tony doesn't do a good job at lying...Americans will know that he is lying....because he is connected to that God awful news network. No one will take him seriously...even if he drops to the floor crying and asking for forgiveness from God!!! Since Bush is going to be doing his address to the nation on Monday, Snow Job Tony Snow won't be starting his job until Tuesday. Oh how I can't wait for Tuesday! Let's hope Karl Rove has been indicted by that time so Tony will have to take a million questions on it! Woohoo!
Rove Monster told Lunkhead he will be indicted
Hey, how did that picture get in here? I wanted a picture of Karl Rove and got the Creature from the Black Lagoon instead...what the.... Well, well, well, the Rove Monster has told Lunkhead (our president) that he will resign once the indictments against him come forth in connection with CIA operative outing. (Thankya Jeesuhs!) Apparently, insiders within the White House are confirming this anonymously and they are also saying there will be a list of indictments....one of which will be perjury. We already knew the Monster was lying his ass off to the Grand Jury to protect Bush and the other lying Warpigs in the People's House, but what is so irritating is that it has taken two years for it to finally come to light!!! I don't know about you, but I want the Rove Monster to be sent back to his lagoon to live for a long time and I want a very large rock placed on top of him to keep his squirmy, scaley, slimey body from ever coming back to the surface. Sounds good to me, but I'm sure Lunkhead will figure out a way to have cellphone contact with him because the Monster has been the man's brain for years.....and we are already seeing Lunkhead slip into madness just in the last two weeks since Rove's departure! The Monster said he wanted to spend more time focusing on the upcoming elections (translation: The Monster wants to figure out how to steal, fix, rig, or manipulate the mid-term and next presidential election without anyone catching on this time) and from that moment....Bush has had that 'deer caught in the headlights' look. Bush can't function without Rove and after admitting to us this past week that his surveillance program is really cool and wicked legal (notice how Constitutional scholars haven't come out to support his position...why?....because no one who has studied the Constitution will agree with Bush!....why?....because his gigantic spy program is illegal!).....I'm afraid of what he will admit to all of us next week! Rove's indictment and possible future jail time will be good for the country because it will show accountability and most Americans want to see that right now, but I'm not so sure it will be good for this White House who is cracking at the seems. This is a White House who doesn't like to lose any battle no matter what kind of battle it is, so it makes you wonder what's in store for us now? Scary to think about.

The Dictator's Men
Can you guess which man served loyally to Hitler and which man currently serves loyally to Bushitler? Hmmm...it's hard to figure it out, isn't it? I suppose, one is black and white and one is color so that is a good giveaway! Heinrich Himmler is on the right and he committed suicide at the end like Hitler because the cowards knew that everything they did was illegal, autrocious, and they knew they were war criminals. General Michael Hayden is on the left and he has run the NSA for a few years (he's been spying on us for years!). He was recently nominated to head the CIA (all Bush cronies get promoted after they commit crimes for him and in some cases....they receive the Medal of Freedom), and because of his loyalty to Bush, well, he is partly to blame for our country becoming a dictatorship in a few short years! Uncanny that Hitler and Bush would both have men below them who would do anything for their Father and who look exactly alike! "...full blown dictatorship"~Jack Cafferty, CNN 5/11/06
Here's what CNN's Jack Cafferty said today on Wolf Blitzer's show, "The Situation Room":
CNN's WOLF BLITZER: ...[some wisdom] from Jack Cafferty in New York. CNN's JACK CAFFERTY: I don't know about wisdom but you'll get a bit of outrage. We better hope nothing happens to Arlen Specter, the Republican head of the Judiciary Committee, because he might be all that's standing between us and a full blown dictatorship in this country. He's vowed to question these phone company executives about volunteering to provide the government with my telephone records and yours, and tens of millions of other Americans. Shortly after 9-11, AT&T, Verizon and BellSouth began providing the super secret NSA with information on phone calls of millions of our citizens, all part of the war on terror, President Bush says.Why don't you go find Osama Bin Laden and seal the country's borders and start inspecting the containers that come into our ports?The President rushed out this morning in the wake of this front page story in USA Today and he declared the government's doing nothing wrong and all of this is just fine.Is it? Is it legal? Then why did the Justice Department suddenly drop its investigation of the warrantless spying on citizens? Because the NSA said Justice Department lawyers didn't have the necessary security clearance to do the investigation. Read that sentence again. A secret government agency has told our Justice Department that it's not allowed to investigate it. And the Justice Department just says okay and drops the whole thing.We're in some serious trouble here boys and girls. Here's the question."Does it concern you that your phone company may be providing your phone records to the government without your knowledge or permission?"If it doesn't it sure as hell ought to.

"It's the largest database ever assembled in the world"
For a few months now, the blogs have been talking about how AT&T had given American's phone records to the NSA, but for some reason the 'liberal media' didn't pick up on it until today.....and now Americans are finally outraged about it! What is bothering most liberals and democrats today is the SIZE and the AMOUNT of personal phone records and information that AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, and Bellsouth gave them! It appears to be close to 200 million Americans have been affected (which would include Bush supporters too) and if you know how many Americans are currently living in America, well, you know that your info is now sitting in the 'largest database ever assembled in the world'. A poster on Americablog brought up a really good point today about all of this. He or she said that the government is taking our phone calls, putting it in their database, and then as more calls are added to each person's little section of the database, eventually, the government can make an 'intention assessment' of what you are doing. In other words, if you constantly call the Arab restuarant in your town to order takeout and the government sees a pattern, well, they can assume from their data (wrongly so of course) that you are indeed doing something sinister (even though you know you are just ordering food)! Or if you are one who calls your local bakery to order 'yellow cake' a lot because it's your favorite type of cake, then well, the government can 'safely assume' that you are in the process of creating a nuclear bomb. I don't trust the government right now and don't like the idea of them recording or snooping on our personal phone calls, but what bothers me the most is the we have paranoid people working in and for the White House and they are the ones who will be interpreting what we are saying and that scares me to no end!!!!!!!! Can we trust them? No. I feel like laying down on the ground and crying while watching the clouds slowly go across the sky. I do because I don't recognize my country right now and it hurts. It hurts bad. Some are referring to the White House now as the Kremlin. Some are saying that the markets are crashing. Some are saying we've been a dictatorship for awhile now. Some are saying the Bush Warpigs are planning another attack on our country and on Iran. Some are tired. I am tired. The one person who could fix all of this and make it go away is the most corrupt president our country has ever witnessed. He and his Warpigs are doing exactly what they planned to do back in the 1990's through the right-wing think tank called the Project for the New American Century. They hate America and our values and they are working feverously to destroy it. They have made our nation into the very Evil nations that they say they want to rid the Earth of. I despise and hate them all. What I don't understand is why isn't the NSA or our other Intelligence agencies not contacting overseas telephone companies to spy on the terrorists there? Why? With the knowledge that 200 million Americans have been wiretapped or spied on by the Feds, are we to now say that there are 200 million terrorists calling our country right now? Well, if you heard Bush today, that is what he was implying. If that's the case, then where are the arrests of these people? Where are they? I'll tell you where they are.....they're no where. Bush and his Warpigs came into the White House in January 2001 and that is when they started spying on Americans. Which Americans? Liberals and democrats, that's who. We are the enemy to these paranoid lunatics. They're not spying on anyone in this country to protect us. They're spying on us and lying about what they're doing because they know what they are doing is illegal. Even Attorney General John Ashcroft back in early 2001 refused to allow Bush and his Warpigs to do this type of spying, and that's going some, because Ashcroft is a complete whacko! Ashcroft knew what Bush and the rest wanted to do was not within the confounds of the Constitution or any other law on the books. So, Ashcroft is gone and now we have Gonzales....a real crony. Gonzales is the Brownshirt who is allowing Bush to ignore all laws of our country right now!!! Please, make it stop! General Michael Hayden has been nominated by Bush as Director of the CIA and all of this information doesn't look good for him that's for sure. Why? Well, for starters, he was the one that told the country that the Intelligence community had heard the words on September 10, 2001, "Tomorrow is zero hour" by one of the hijackers (who they were tracking by the way!!!!), and no one interpreted it until September 12, 2001! 9/11/01 happened anyways, so my point is, it doesn't matter what they are hearing while they are spying on all of us, because in the end, they won't REALLY know the intention of the people talking and can't be trusted to make the distinction either or can't be trusted TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE INFORMATION THEY ARE HEARING! So, because I'm a liberal, I don't like the idea of giving up any of my rights (even in a time of war), especially when we have paranoid lunatics running the country. I refuse to bend on this issue either. I would rather die than live in a dictatorship....and by the looks of it.....we are living in one. Like I said above, there is one person who could change all of this but he is the same guy who said that God told him to attack Iraq and kill the people there. He's a lunatic and I will never ever ever give up one right for him....ever. In fact, I wouldn't give up my rights for anybody...I don't care who it is. What are our soldiers fighting for in Iraq? Our freedom. Bush has lied to our soldiers too, because while they're over there fighting, dying, getting maimed, or coming home paralyzed, their Commander in Chief is saying that our Constitution "is only a God damn piece of paper" and is giving the finger to the Bill of Rights. I feel sorry for our soldiers and their families. I know that some of them feel the way I do because I've heard from them online. If there truly is a God, let's hope God is on the side of the American people and gets rid of the fungus who inhabit the People's House in Washington DC. They've done enough to our country. It's time for them to be gone and be done with it. Americans are hurting and the Bush Warpigs are the cause of it!

Another republican pleads guilty to funneling money
Tom Noe has pleaded guilty in Ohio for illegally funneling money to Bush's 2004 campaign. Good. In addition to this charge, Noe has also been charged with stealing $1 million dollars in a coin scam has pleaded not-guilty to this. If republicans couldn't funnel money, launder money, or steal money, I think it's possible that they would shrivel up and die like the Wicked Witch on the Wizard of Oz! It's so incredible to me the amount of illegal activity that current republicans are involved in and that they get away with, so it's nice to see one of them every so often face some jail time for Christ's sake. For the sake of the nation, I hope democrats win back control in November so hearings and investigations can REALLY begin and bring those in the House, the Senate, and the White House accountable for their crimes. How wonderful that would be!
Why was Bush's Itinerary found next to a trash can today?
Everyday we hear from the Bush Warpigs that they are making us safe, that they are our protectors, and that they would love for us to believe, if it weren't for them, we'd all be running around naked asking for duct tape and plastic because we're so scared without their strong arms around us? Well, isn't it a little disturbing to find out that Bush's Itinerary for his Florida trip (he's been there a day or so now) was found today next to a trash can by a custodial worker and that all fingers point to someone from Bush's entourage is the one who put it there? What the hell. Does that make you feel safe? One thing the enemy of any president or leader would love to have in his or her hot hands would be the schedule for this person. Why? Oh, let's just say that there are people out there all the time, every day, and every single minute who want to harm our president and all leaders across the planet. So, having the schedule would be a good thing to have and what I don't understand is why whoever is in charge of keeping track of Bush's Itinerary didn't think what he or she was doing was not dangerous and didn't stay within normal procedure. Okay, I'm not protecting Bush or standing up for him, but what I am doing is forming my own little conspiracy. Yup, that's what I'm about to do. After reading about this subject today, I learned that information such as a presidential Itinerary is always burned in a burn bag....always. These documents are not something that one would leave lying around, but yet, this stack of papers was left in plain sight....next to a trash can. Uh huh.
When will Tony Snow start taking questions from the Press?
UPDATE: SNOW STORM COMING MONDAY, MAY 15TH & THE WASHINGTON POST WANTS TO KNOW WHAT QUESTION YOU WOULD ASK 'SNOW BALL' On May 5, 2006, Scott McClellan said goodbye as the Press Secretary. May 8th was Tony Snow's first day, but if you go to www.whitehouse.gov and look at that press briefing, you will find that Snow only said 59 words which consisted of him introducing John Negroponte to talk about the resignation of Porter Goss etc. Even on Tuesday (Press Briefing linked above in title), Snow didn't say one word but McClellan , who is supposed to be back in Texas waiting in a rocking chair for Bush to return, handled the whole briefing. What is going on? Is Tony getting cold feet or is the Administration trying to get through the scandals of last week to make it easier for Tony when he finally starts taking questions? I have no idea but it seems odd to me. Everyone is waiting anxiously for Tony to start because we want to see what direction he is going to take. If he does what Scott did, then we can pretty much consider the White House Press Briefing a non-essential part of our American dictatorship. There has been talk about not televising the press briefings. That makes sense when your country is a dictatorship, doesn't it? Pigs.

'Divine Strake' nuke test has been postponed
On June 2, 2006, our military was prepared to test a 700 ton nuclear bomb in the Nevada desert, but thanks to concerned Americans who sued the military, this test has been postponed until June 23rd. Okay, it's only a few weeks after the original planned date, but the lawsuit was to allow further information to be studied and for further research before the test takes place for everyone's safety. I actually don't want the test to take place at all! I think this test is a foreshadow for things to come and it worries me greatly. If there is a fallout from this test and Americans become sick, we know who to blame, don't we? I've got my finger ready to point!!!
"Victory in Iraq!" is the new mantra for the Dept. of Agriculture
Does that makes sense? Does it make sense to have the Department of Agriculture to be touting to it's minions that 'victory in Iraq!' is exactly what our agriculture needs? LOL Oh my God, well, apparently Bush is feeling the weight of the 31% approval rating icon on top of his body, because he is now resorting to telling all department heads below him that they have to take his talking points on the war and run with it!!!! Holy crap. What will our Fuhrer do next to spread his message? Maybe tattooing 'Victory in Iraq!' on all new babies born in the United States starting June 1st? Or maybe instead of having pictures of missing children on the back of milk cartons, Bush can have his talking points printed there instead? Or maybe he'll have small aircraft fly all over the country hauling a banner behind them with those words on it for all beach goers, all fans in stadiums, and all people in our country can view? Jees. Bush is obviously losing touch with reality. I'm really starting to become scared of the man. For the past 6 years I've called him Lunkhead because he's about as smart as a 6 week old zygote, but watching him sink into madness and resorting to sicko propaganda techniques is absolutely frightening!!!!!! It's totally frightening and I fear for my future as well as my son's. Because....where is our country heading if we have a president who refuses to obey any law in this country, who starts wars on lies, who is allowing his corrupt corporate whores to steal our treasury, and who is telling his Departments to help him fight his war in Iraq when these deparments have nothing to do with the war at all (or war in general!) and it's only to help him with his approval ratings!!!! Frightening, I tell ya. Damn.
Two Maine soldiers killed in Iraq this week
It never ends and it never will because we have lying, stinking, warmongering, thieves running our country right now and they know war is good for their pockets. The End. My heart goes out to the families of the fallen here in Maine.
Not surprising...Michael Hayden connected to Hookergate
Funny how Bush keeps rewarding bad behavior. No wonder his twin girls are out of control! General Michael Hayden (or Hitler's Himmler), who was nominated by Bush to take over the controls at the Central Intelligence Agency, is another pig connected to Hookergate. It doesn't appear that he may have hired prostitutes, but his underlings were dealing with MZM, which is a company owned by Mitchell Wade. Oh boy. Why is it that our government has become so perverted now? In the 1990's blow jobs were the perversion that the religious right wanted to rid the Earth of, but now, we see that the republicans are the perverted ones (and can be easily bribed I may add), so where are these same religious righters now? Incredible.

When Rumsfeld gets a tongue lashing....bring out the propaganda!
How pathetic Rumsfeld and the Bush Administration is when someone in this country holds their feet to the fire. Rumsfeld, a few days ago, found himself in the middle of a 'protester beehive' while giving a speech. One of the protesters was a retired CIA analyst who pointed out the lies of Rummy by reading back his own words to him. Ouch. So now, the propaganda is flying to make Rummy look like a militarian extraordinaire! Oh yes, when someone makes Rummy look like a lying chickenhawk while running this big fat lie of a war, make sure to remind your fellow Americans that Rummy used to be in the military! The above linked article has Rummy being concerned about a fellow Navy man who back in 1956 was left behind in Bejing, China after his plane was shot down. Of course, this one sentence from the article pretty much sums it up:
Rumsfeld's personal link to the Deane case is a coincidence of history not publicly reported until now.Oh please. This is just propaganda at it's best coming from the most corrupt Administration on all levels of government ever in the history of our nation.
Right wing talk show host has had enough of George - Wow!
Everything Doug McIntyre says is everything that I've said for years now. It's nice to know that some republicans are finally catching up and catching on to the evil ways of the Bush Administration. I don't care how much you love someone (like the republicans have loved Bush over these past 6 years)...years of lying will break that bond. It has and the outrage is starting to ooze out. I tip my hat to right wingers such as Doug McIntyre who understand that the path the Bush Admin is taking us down is the wrong one and is a non-partisan issue. It's an American issue and we are the ones who can stop the madness! Kudos to McIntyre

Why is the 'liberal media' reporting on the Kennedy crash?
Patrick Kennedy, who is the House Representative for the state of Rhode Island and who is also the son of Ted Kennedy, Senator from Massachusetts, crashed his car @ 3am on Thursday morning not far from the House. Because he's a Kennedy, the 'liberal media' is reporting more on this crash rather than the Watergate-Hookergate scandal (see post below)! Now why is that? Why is the 'liberal media' reporting more on the Kennedy crash rather than all of the corruption coming out of Washington from the republican side of the isle every day practically? Huh? Well, I think the 'liberal media' is wanting something (anything!) to divert the nation's attention away from all that neocon corruption and Kennedy is the answer. Here's what I hope: I hope Kennedy gets off scott-free and after it is over, I hope he holds a press conference and tells the American people what really happened: that he was high on coke, crack, anti-depressants, and on most barbituates from A-Z and drunker than his father that night, that he tried to run over the White House Security officer on purpose and is upset that he missed him, and that while he was driving like a drunken madman he was hanging out his window yelling, "Bush is a scum! Warpigs suck!". I hope he does that because the Bush Warpigs have gotten away with so much criminal activity, corruption, and have made it clear to the American people that they hate us, that it only makes sense that A DEMOCRAT GETS THE CHANCE TO BEAT THE SYSTEM WHILE GIVING THE FINGER TO IT. Heil Patrick! And.....good for him for admitting that he has addictions and for telling the officer that he wasn't drinking when he really had had a few! Hey, I don't know anyone who gets pulled over who says, "Yeah, I'm smashed. Arrest me." Never happens and it never will. I hope Patrick gets the help he needs and comes back ready to go to fight for the people of his state. The Kennedy family, even though they've had quite a past, has always used their wealth and power to do good for the American people and abroad. The Peace Corps and the Special Olympics are two that come to mind.
Porter's Prostitutes? Could be
Uh oh. Porter Goss has resigned as the Director of the CIA. Oh boy. Is it possible Goss is the 'high intelligence official' who also hired some prostitutes while he was in the House of Representatives along with Duke Cunningham and other House of Representative members? Could be. Is it possible that Goss knows he's in trouble and would rather be referred to as the 'former CIA Director'? I think so, and how wonderful it will be that in the end a sex scandal will slowly bring down the most corrupt Administration to ever to walk the halls of the White House and all other offices connected to it!!! (I still have my fingers crossed that "Hot Tub" Tom Delay was also getting blow jobs by finely dressed prostitutes under the poker table he was sitting at the Watergate Hotel! Oh please, please, please....) Remember the good ole days when the president would get a blow job from his intern and have a little fun with a cigar and no one died because of it? Remember that? Well, fast forward to today and not only do we have prostitutes (please God...let some of the prostitutes be men!! Please!!!) being hired with our money for our government officials (prostitution is illegal while blow jobs by an intern are not!), but these same people are behind the destruction of this country and behind the big fat lie of a war in Iraq!!! Many have died during the WarPimps Regime and I long for the days when a 'wag the dog' moment consisted of a rocket launched at an empty building and no one died! It will be interesting to see how the Bush Regime spins Porter's resignation. I'm already hearing the news programs say that Porter was frustrated because he couldn't get certain things done within it. Bullshit. He has completely overhauled the CIA and it's still not functioning correctly. He was acting like a pimp by hiring himself some prostitutes and that is why he is jumping ship!

Sportswriter views Katrina damage...and is outraged
You can tell the Katrina damage is still huge and making an impact when a sportswriter and his wife take a trip through it and he uses his sports column to write about it! Peter King of Sports Illustrated wrote a scathing article on what he saw when he went to the Ninth Ward in New Orleans and boy....is he upset. We all should be upset about the 'truthiness' of the failure of our local, state, and federal officials lack of response to the devastation. The state of Maine had a 'Katrina' back in January of 1998 too. We had a devastating ice storm that knocked out power to much of the whole state (there are 1.3 million people in our state and 1 million were without power). And? It got very little news coverage. I remember listening to the radio to see if the national news was talking about it and never heard anything. My son and I were some of the lucky ones because we only went without power for seven days, but my folks and many others in the state went without power for two weeks or more and anyone living on an island....went at least a month without it! Ice is damaging. Large trees fell easily across roads and down onto homes smashing everything in it's path. Branches (some as large as garages) would just fall to the ground without much effort. I remember standing outside and listening to the sounds of branches and trees cracking not knowing if one would hit me. It was a devastating eerie sound. Walking? You couldn't walk on the ground to even get your mail. Each piece of grass had a 1/2 inch thick layer on it and the lawns were bumpy, hard, and slippery, which made it almost impossible to take just a few steps. The ice storm of 1998 brought Mainers together though. Neighbors banded together to take in people who didn't have wood stoves to heat their homes. We fed each other by cooking on our outdoor gas grills. We tried to make the best of it while we all suffered from being cold, bored, and having to ladel our toilets out because we had not water. The one thing that will always stick in my mind was Central Maine Power. No one in the state loves the electric company. We don't like their prices and their monopoly on us, but during the Ice Storm, we loved CMP. Why? Because the employees were also suffering the same as us back at their homes. They knew how we were all feeling. As CMP made their way slowly through the state they were met with open arms! People came out of their houses and gave the workers food, coffee, and anything they needed or wanted because they were our saviors!!!! They were here for us and Mainers felt it. Another hero of the Ice Storm of '98? Home Depot. Yup...Home Depot. They refused to price gauge Mainers during their time of need! They could have, but they didn't. They sold their gas generators to us without raising their regular price by even a $1.00. Wonderful....and Mainers will never forget that either. My point of sharing this? Well, after reading Peter King's scathing article, I realized how much the New Orlean people must be suffering. I couldn't imagine being rounded up like cattle and herded off to another state with no money and no way to reach family or friends. How tragic. And how tragic that no one on the local, state, and federal level said, "Hey, we need to get everyone back here to work together to rebuild our (and their) great, beautiful city!". No one said it and they're still not saying it. I'm sure some don't want to come back, but god damn it, release the money to give the people who do want to come back some hope and let them band together as neighbors to get the job done. We had it here in Maine back in 1998 and I would give anything to be able to share that attitude with the people of New Orleans! We love you all and are hurting right along side you. Americans have not forgot about you....but the government has. Shame on them for turning their backs.

Man in Ohio smashed a Diebold machine a few hours ago!
Well, it's official...Americans are outraged and in the case of this Ohio man, he smashed a Diebold voting machine because of it! Isn't that freaking hysterical?!! The man is 61 years old too, which is an age you wouldn't expect this kind of behavior from...the smashing of electronic equipment in a public forum, but it happened. He was pissed. When are our state and federal officials going to get it through their thick heads that Americans know they are being duped by the very people we are voting for? The Diebold machines are corrupt and they have been patented by corrupt people. Americans have had enough and we want our country back and returned in the condition it was prior to 2000 presidential election!!!!! I don't blame the man for becoming upset because we're all upset. We vote because we want it to be counted. We don't vote because 'we hope our vote went through correctly'!!!!
Oh how the 'truthiness' hurts the Bush Warpigs!
Two evenings after Steve Colbert of Comedy Central gave a scathing 'comedic' routine at the White House Corresponsdence Dinner, where he picked off the legs and arms off all that were there in attendance, John Stewart of the Daily Show (Colbert's show is a spawn of Stewart's show) talked briefly for a moment to Colbert before Colbert's show was to start. John made the comment to him that he looked different and Colbert sarcastically said back that he had lost some weight, where in turn, Stewart jested, "did you lose weight from having to run from Washington?". I howled! I thought that was perfect, because there was Steve Colbert....the 'Hero of America' laughing at himself along with John Stewart knowing full well he had two days earlier.....given George W. Bush and his Warpig Media the finger in a public forum! Just like Steve Colbert announced on his show on Monday that he had the most wonderful weekend of his life, I have to agree. He make my weekend and he made my life. Colbert reminded me that when speaking truth to power, your voice can crack (his didn't) or you can just plow forward with your truth and say it strong and loudly! Thank you Steve for the lesson that peace does indeed take courage! Michael Scherer of Salon.com has written a wonderful piece on Colbert's performance on Saturday evening and he explains how irony is deadly to those that just don't get it. (the article is linked in the title)
Is George H.W. Bush connected to JFK's assassination?
This post has nothing to do with war, I know, but I find it very intriguing. For years online on the blogs and message boards, there has been talk about how Bush Sr. was connected to John F. Kennedy's assassination back in 1963 and there is much written about it online. But something very interesting is happening now.....journalist Jack Anderson dies recently of old age and within days the FBI is knocking on his widow's door to retrieve all of Anderson's private papers. Hmmmm....their reason for doing this to this family before the mourning sets in? Well, according to the FBI, they want Jack's papers because they say he has papers in his possession that are connected to the America-Israeli Public Affairs Committee. Oh poppycock. Many that knew Jack Anderson say that he never did any reporting on that subject and wasn't even interested in it. Well, it appears that ole Jack has papers in his possession that could reveal that Bush Sr. knew Lee Harvey Oswald's American host. Now that's an interesting notion, don't you think? I think so. Big Brother works in very mysterious ways because for years many bloggers could go to www.bushbodycount.com and it would list out all of the people that Bush Sr. was connected to who were either murdered or he had connections to the murderer. With Big Brother being Big Brother, now when you go to the above website, instead of the long detailed list, there is a picture of dead Iraqi children! The above linked article in the title of this thread has a lot more information and it is worth the read!
Blogging Baghdad:The Untold Story
A friend of mine online just sent me the link to this NBC blog called, "Blogging Baghdad: The Untold Story", and I found it very interesting. Apparently, NBC journalists are blogging their experiences from Baghdad which is wonderful! But....yes but....the post that is linked above is by Tom Aspell, who is an NBC News Correspondent, and he is pretty much reflecting that life in Iraq hasn't been much better for the Iraqi people since Bush took Saddam down three years ago. I haven't gone through the other posts at this time but it will be interesting if any NBC correspondent has found anything positive within the country that we destroyed (on a big fat lie no less).
Republicans still refusing to bend over backwards for Americans
Well, well, well, wouldn't you know it? The republicans were in the process of proposing a tax on Big Oil (hey, they're scared about the mid-term election and are trying to 'make nice' with Americans right now), when suddenly, out of the blue like a rocket, Big Oil & Big Business came sweeping in, hanging on ropes, and punched the lights out of Bill Frist and the rest of the republicans in the Senate! That punch 'knocked some Big Oil sense into them' and the Bill was dropped, scortched, stepped on, spit on, ran over with 24 gas guzzling SUVs, and hung like a Pinata in the center of the Senate with the republicans yelling, "What were you democrats thinking! A tax will never work! Poor Big Oil & Big Business!!! See what you almost made us do?!!!!". Idiots. The next time you see Bill Frist on your t.v.......spit on his face for me, will ya? The article is here and also linked through the title.
