ABC apparently felt sufficiently chastened to change the Berger segment after Democratic officials complained. The network said Thursday that the scene would be toned down, according to the Los Angeles Times… That said, Americans are smart enough to know that what happened on 9/11 was in the works long before the Bush administration took office. No amount of protest will change the fact that some of the dots now clearly visible were available for connecting during the Clinton administration.-RealClearPolitics
We can’t admit mistakes because we’re liberals so let’s make a big fat fake documentary and sit around and watch it with our heads up our as-ses. In your own little bubble.
Apply this to global warming. Now you know where I’m coming from. It’s all about agendas, to hell with the United States.

Democrats treated the 9/11 Commission Report as a sacred document. Information from the report was used over and over again to beat up on President Bush. Opponents of the President quoted commission findings frequently and they scored some political points. Thwack! An ABC mini-series based on the commission report, and even blessed by commission chairman Thomas Kean, is planned to air next week on the September 11 anniversary. Clinton administration officials and liberal bloggers are outraged by the portrayal of the Democratic administration, which is based on information from the same report they loved so much to selectively quote.-TownHall

But, by our lights, the president’s three recent speeches, taken together and bundled on top of Mr. Bush’s previous words and deeds, add up to an approach to the strategic questions facing this country that will be remembered for generations. They underline the fact that this administration has moved miles beyond the intellectual and moral confusion of the Clinton years. Mr. Bush’s speeches also pose an implicit question: Have other American politicians made the same progress?-NYSun

Let’s see what the liberal’s side of the war on facism is up to:
I’ve just come across an article in the Egyptian weekly, Roz Al-Yusuf, titled “Hezbollah’s Children’s Militias.” Reading it, set my hair on end. Hezbollah has recruited, says the article, 2,000 children between ages 10 to 15 for the armed militias in the Hezbollah affiliated Mahdi Scouts youth organization, founded in May 1985. The youngsters, according to the Egyptian weekly, are trained to become suicide bombers. In fact, Hezbollah refers to them as “martyrs.”-WashingtonTimes

Ironically, the Hamdan decision has given the administration a rare opportunity to exploit. Opponents of the administration’s handling of detained terrorists — which roughly includes civil-libertarian fanatics at the ACLU and a majority of the Democratic caucus — have been able to hammer their points precisely because the White House felt it was not bound by congressional oversight. While the Supreme Court decision has forced Mr. Bush to go to Congress, it has put the Democrats on the spot to explain to the American people why terrorists deserve the same rights as American citizens.-WashingtonTimes

In all, it appears a substantial number of plots were foiled because of the CIA interrogation program. They included attacks not only in the U.S. but on targets such as a U.S. Marine camp in Djibouti and the U.S. consulate in Karachi. Mr. Bush said that information from the program played a role in the arrest of “nearly every” senior al Qaeda member in U.S. custody. These detainees have proven invaluable to our general understanding of their organization and have helped the U.S. decipher captured documents and computer records and identified voices on recorded calls.-OpinionJournal

The vast majority of Sunnis are fighting not for ideology but for a share of power and (oil) money. A deal with them is eminently possible and could co-opt enough Sunnis to greatly shrink the insurgency. Even now, the insurgents have the capacity to massacre civilians and kill coalition soldiers with roadside bombs, but they have never demonstrated the capacity for the kind of sustained unit action that ultimately overthrows governments and wins civil wars.-RealClearPolitics
Cut
In Iraq, hardline Sunni leaders finally alarmed by what they have wrought are becoming interested in talking peace, and al-Qaeda is suffering heavy losses among its leadership and its ranks. Iran’s puppets there, the Shia militias, are a growing threat that must be brought into line, as violently and mercilessly as necessary. Again, pressure must be brought to convince Teheran of the error of its ways. Iraq’s democratic forces, growing stronger every day, must be given every opportunity to prevail if we want our efforts there to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion.-RealClearPolitics

Allowing a march to devolve into a circus where immigrant rights become inextricably entangled with pet issues of the far left, however, only serves to further convince those with conflicted feelings about immigration that this categorically is not their struggle.-AmericanSpectator

WASHINGTON - A Senate analysis of intelligence-gathering activities leading up to the invasion of Iraq is certain to rekindle an election-year debate on the justification of going to war.
The intelligence committee issued a portion of its analysis, labeled Phase I, on prewar intelligence shortcomings in July 2004. But concluding work on Phase II of the study has been more problematic, because of partisan divisions over how senior policymakers used intelligence in arguing for the need to drive Saddam from power.
Last November, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada forced the Senate into a rare closed-door session to discuss the delay in coming out with the new data.
The 400-page report to be released Friday covers only two of the five topics outlined under Phase II. Much of the information — on the intelligence supplied by the INC and Chalabi and the overestimation of Saddam’s WMD threat — has been documented in numerous studies.
But Rockefeller said the report would show how the “administration pursued a deceptive strategy, abusing intelligence reporting that the intelligence community had already warned was uncorroborated, unreliable and in some critical circumstances fabricated.”
In other words, the Republicans have been stalling any inquiry into the lead up to engagement in Iraq in order to keep us all in the dark because if we find out the truth abouth how they trumped up pre-war ‘intelligence’, they know we’ll hold them accountable. Republicans can’t let an honest independent inquiry happen and let the chips fall where they may because they are LIARS now and they were LIARS then ! ! !

KABUL, Afghanistan - A suicide car bomber struck a convoy of U.S. military vehicles in downtown Kabul on Friday, killing at least 16 people, including two American soldiers, and wounding 29 others, officials and witnesses said.
The blast, near the U.S. Embassy, came as NATO chiefs appealed for member nations to send reinforcements to combat resurgent Taliban militants fanning the deadliest violence in five years. A top British general said the fighting in volatile southern Afghanistan was now more ferocious than in Iraq.
While King George jerks us all off in Iraq, our troops in the real battle ground of Afghanistan are undermanned, ill supplied, and left to fend for themselves. Republicans have NO concern for our troops other than the use they can make of them as political pawns ! ! !

If you want to educate yourself about everything that is going on , Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) gave an excellent summation of current events on C-Span yesterday.
No spin, just the facts and I could not believe a Republican was telling it like it is. He pulled no punches and stated the neocon failures. His conclusions are the same as mine because it is the truth.
Also, The Dems introduced the security act. It is not just rhetoric, it is an actual plan. Clinton and the Dems introduced it yesterday and she stood out among the best of the Dems. Check out Kerry on Hardball last night and he is bashing w like he has never before. The Dems have grown a spine.

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A roadside bomb in Baghdad and a mortar attack on Shiite pilgrims south of the capital killed five people Friday, authorities said, a day before tens of thousands of people were expected in the Shiite holy city of Karbala for a religious festival.
A roadside bomb also struck an Iraqi army convoy in a village near Karmah, 50 miles west of Baghdad, killing four Iraqi soldiers, police said.
An American soldier died after being wounded in a roadside bomb explosion south of Baghdad, the U.S. military command said. A British soldier died Thursday of injuries sustained when his patrol came under fire in Qurnah, about 35 miles north of Basra, on Tuesday.
The 10 deaths came a day after U.S.-led forces turned over control of Iraq’s military command to the Shiite-led government, a key step toward the eventual withdrawal of foreign troops.
+++But the ceremony in Baghdad’s heavily fortified Green Zone only transferred authority for one of Iraq’s 10 divisions and its small air force and navy, and it remained unclear how quickly Iraqi forces would be prepared to take over security.+++
Insurrgent are still not having their “last throes” that Republicans LIED to us about then and they continue to LIE to us now when they said that military control was turned over to Iraqi forces yesterday. Today we learn that this purely ceremonial occasion “only transferred authority for one of Iraq’s 10 divisions and its small air force and navy”.

Clinton, 9/11 and the Facts By William Rivers Pitt
The fifth anniversary of the September 11 attacks is less than two weeks away, but the avalanche has already begun. Oliver Stone's film "World Trade Center" has been advertised in all corners and is being screened across the nation. CNN has announced that it intends, on the 11th, to rebroadcast all of the coverage of the attacks from 8:30 a.m. until midnight. If you don't have cable, they say, you can watch it for free on the CNN web site. ABC intends to mark the occasion in far more grand a fashion. Starting September 10th and ending September 11th, the network will show a miniseries titled "The Path to 9/11." According to reports from early screenings, the writer/producer of the miniseries, Cyrus Nowrasteh, has crafted a television polemic intended to blame the entire event on President Clinton. Nowrasteh, an outspoken conservative of Persian descent whose family fled Iran after the fall of the Shah, spoke last year at the Liberty Film Festival, described by its founders as Hollywood's first conservative film festival. Govindini Murty, actress, writer, and co-director of the Liberty Film Festival, wrote a review of "The Path to 9/11" for the right-wing online news page FrontPageMag.com. In the review, Murty states, "'The Path to 9/11' is one of the best, most intelligent, most pro-American miniseries I've ever seen on TV, and conservatives should support it and promote it as vigorously as possible. This is the first Hollywood production I've seen that honestly depicts how the Clinton administration repeatedly bungled the capture of Osama bin Laden." FrontPageMag, it should be noted, held a symposium back in May to argue that the Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, which were never found despite being the main reason for invasion, were actually spirited out of Iraq by Russia on the eve of the 2003 attack. So it goes. Leaving aside the wretched truth that the far right is once again using September 11 to score political points, the facts regarding the still-lingering effort to blame the Clinton administration for the attacks must be brought to the fore. Nowrasteh, at several points in his miniseries, rolls out a number of oft-debunked allegations that Clinton allowed Osama bin Laden to remain alive and free before the attacks. Roger Cressy, National Security Council senior director for counterterrorism in the period 1999-2001, responded to these allegations in an article for the Washington TimesBy Sean loves Dick

Clinton, 9/11 and the Facts
Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, emerged from the meeting and said, “These are very controversial provisions that the [Clinton] White House wants. Some they’re not going to get.” ….[Hatch] also said he had some problems with the president’s proposals to expand wiretapping. — CNN, July 30, 1996 So Bill Clinton, rather than just breaking the law as Bush did (then again, perhaps this is why Bush broke the law - he knew from history that the Republicans controlling the congress would oppose his efforts to expand wiretapping), decided to go to the Republican congress in 1996 and ask them for increased authority to do more eavesdropping in order to stop the terrorists - stop September 11. Senior Republican Senator Orrin Hatch, one of the GOP’s top picks for the Supreme Court and a GOP committee chair, objected. The Republicans stopped President Clinton from getting all the tools he needed to stop the next September 11 - well, no, actually they opposed giving President Clinton all the tools he needed to stop the actual September 11. Could September 11 have been stopped if the GOP had given President Clinton the tools he requested to stop Osama and Mohammad Atta from killing 3,000 people in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington? Maybe we need to ask the Republicans up for re-election why they wanted to appease the terrorists? Quote: President Clinton urged Congress Tuesday to act swiftly in developing anti-terrorism legislation before its August recess. “We need to keep this country together right now. We need to focus on this terrorism issue,” Clinton said during a White House news conference. But while the president pushed for quick legislation, Republican lawmakers hardened their stance against some of the proposed anti-terrorism measures.—CNN, July 30, 1996 There’s even an audio clip of President Clinton practically begging the Republicans to give him the tools he needed to stop Osama and the terrorists. Trent Lott said no. Orrin Hatch said no. Do these men really deserve to run the Congress during a time of war? How about addressing this?

Republicans have to have Clinton as their strawman in order to throw the focus off the REPUBLICAN failure to capture bin Laden AFTER 9/11 when he was cornered in Tora Bora and King George had to have his Iraqi cowboy moment instead.
According to the Republicans, Clinton was supposed to be clarivoyant and foretell the 9/11 attack before his tenure in office was through, but Bush who let bin Laden go free AFTER the event was blameless.

Well lookee lookee, the ever so enlightened U.N. realizes their shortcomings too late, but continues them to this day. They’re still trying to negotiate with terrorist nations who are thumbing their nose at them.
U.N. Unveils Counterterrorism Strategy
UNITED NATIONS (AP) - The president of the U.N. General Assembly unveiled a long-awaited strategy to combat terrorism, the result of a year of often bitter work to meet world leaders’ demands that the United Nations help its 192 members fight the scourge.
Much of the strategy, distributed Thursday, repeats previous commitments - for example, promises to implement earlier General Assembly and Security Council resolutions. It also makes promises that are ambiguous and difficult to fulfill: promoting the rule of law and “a culture of peace;” meeting the Millennium Development Goals; encouraging dialogue between people of different faiths.
A scourge? Is that like an epidemic. 192 countries? So it’s like….global? Long-awaited? Let’s see, does that include acts before the GWB Administration?

Acctually Marsh Arabs are really their own people with different traditions.
“Who Are the Marsh Arabs and Where Are They?”
“The Marsh Arabs, put simply, are a semi-nomadic people whose unique way of life, until recently, has remained unchanged for 5000 years. Until the 1980s, there were around 100,000 Marsh Arabs who inhabit the wetland region of the confluence of the mighty Tigris and Euphrates in Iraq. The land that they once called home used to cover an area of 600,000 square miles.”
“The Marsh Arabs are directly descended from the Sumerian and Babylonian cultures which have long since disappeared from the area the Mi’dan currently inhabit. As an ethnic group, they predate the flood described in the Sumerian epic Gilgamesh and they have been left, more or less, to their own devices. All the great empires that have traipsed through the area have left the Marsh Arabs alone. The inhospitable marsh lands have proved effective in keeping the Marsh Arab culture intact and unwanted visitors out.”
“After the First Gulf War (1991) Saddam Hussein aggressively revived a program to divert the flow of the Tigris River and the Euphrates River away from the marshes in retribution for a failed Shia uprising. The plan also systematically converted the wetlands into a desert, forcing the Marsh Arabs out of their settlements in the region. Less than 5% of the marshes remain today.”
Even today, the marshes are no near where they were previously.

WASHINGTON - President Bush is casting the war on global terrorism as the central issue of the midterm elections. But it’s a risky political strategy.
The approach carries reminders of failures in Iraq, prisoner treatment at Guantanamo Bay, warrantless wiretapping at home and Osama bin Laden’s endurance abroad.
Republicans haven’t done jack shiite domestically except try to throw the borders open to a brazillion ‘guest workers’, completely drop the ball in regards to disaster management, and try to turn our ports and air terminals over to foreign interests.

HANOI, Vietnam - U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said Friday the United States was committed to helping Vietnam join the World Trade Organization.
Let’s see, according to the Republicans, when America cut n run from Vietnam, we abandoned a society striving for freedom to the communist hordes when we had already ‘won the war’. They ignore the fact that the insurrgency in Vietnam was thereby denied its’ greatest recruitment tool (American occupation) and that Vietnam has since gravitated toward a free market system BECAUSE WE LEFT.
Now King George wants to bestow favored nation trading status on the Vietnamese communist hordes. Could it be that the Republicans are still trying to ‘fool ALL of the people ALL of the time’, once again ! ? !

Senate Balance of Power: GOP 49 Dems 45 Toss-Up 6
The Tennessee Senate race is getting closer and Rasmussen Reports now classifies the Corker-Ford race as a “Toss-Up.” Previously, it had been rated “Leans Republican.” This reduces the number of states in the Republican or Leans Republican categories to 49. Forty-five (45) Senate seats are favored to remain in Democratic hands while 6 are now in the Toss-Up category.
Oooooo, the Republicans are feeling their spincters pucker. The Democrats have the House sewed up and they’re closing in on the Senate, too.

I’m hosting a variety of issues that are of interest to me today. I’ve commented on the cartoon and there’s not much more that can be said in that regard…however:
Helping Katrina’s Victims
This kind of collective action can also help the poor increase the minimum wage, reduce discrimination, create unions that can negotiate higher wages and promote financing for the self-help programs that Mr. Williams touts.
Mayor Nagin did such a wonderful job of helping the poor pre-Katrina, and he’s still failing to this day. Barber is making great strides in his state.
Now a party that wants to “discourage an individual’s dependence on government” (Republicans) and not “encourage an individual’s dependence on government” (Democrats) would take a different approach.
States Must Find Welfare Recipients Jobs States are rewarded for efforts to succeed, not rewarded for efforts in doing nothing.
No fear of a socialist/communist government when you encourage individual responsibility. Their votes can’t be bought through government entitlement programs, something the Democrats advocate.

Freaking Idiot. I have read through the blog for 2 days now.
I’m trying to figure out what the POINT of your posting a sympathetic bio of the Marsh Arabs is since you are SO OPPOSED to our being in Iraq and keep asking Why?! Why?! Why?!
Here is what whistling in the wind Jay Rockefeller (D Intelligence Committee) said opn the Senate floor about Iraq being an imminent threat and a terrorist state when he voted YEA for the Lieberman/McCain resolution:
There has been some debate over how “imminent” a threat Iraq poses. I do believe that Iraq poses an imminent threat, but I also believe that after September 11, that question is increasingly outdated. It is in the nature of these weapons, and the way they are targeted against civilian populations, that documented capability and demonstrated intent may be the only warning we get. To insist on further evidence could put some of our fellow Americans at risk. Can we afford to take that chance? We cannot!
{{The President has rightly called Saddam Hussein’s efforts to develop weapons of mass destruction a grave and gathering threat to Americans. The global community has tried but failed to address that threat over the past decade. I have come to the inescapable conclusion that the threat posed to America by Saddam’s weapons of mass destruction is so serious that despite the risks — and we should not minimize the risks — we must authorize the President to take the necessary steps to deal with that threat. And so I will vote for the Lieberman/McCain resolution.}}
Et cetera, et cetera.

The incompetence of this Administration is truly frightening…
Yet we now know that the Bush administration allowed itself to be distracted from that task as the months passed after 9/11. Gary Berntsen, the CIA officer in charge of the operation, told me a year ago that he knows for certain that bin Laden was trapped in Al Qaeda’s Tora Bora hideaway after the fall of Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers in late 2001. As Berntsen records in his 2005 book “Jawbreaker,” bin Laden told his followers, “Forgive me,” and apologized for getting them pinned down by the Americans. But Bernsten says, the Pentagon refused to put in the necessary troops. This account is corroborated by Bernsten’s then boss, CIA senior officer Henry Crumpton (now the State Department’s counterterrorism chief), who made clear to Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney that America’s Afghan and Pakistan allies couldn’t take out bin Laden. “We’re going to lose our prey if we’re not careful,” Crumpton told Bush and Cheney, according to Ron Suskind’s new book, “The One Percent Doctrine.” Numerous accounts have also established that, shortly after Tora Bora, the president began diverting Special Forces troops, Predator drones and other resources involved in the hunt for bin Laden to Iraq.

In no way shape or form was it said or IMPLIED that we should have left Saddam in power. However, you can say that it was Bush Sr. fault for what happened to the marsh Arabs. The Bush Sr. Administration pushed for a Shia uprising to overthrow Saddam and his government from power. Because we gave them little, if no backing the shia’s failed and were punish and killed by Saddam. Part of the punishment was the draining of the Marshes and farm land areas.

Iran has never in modern times invaded her neighbors, yet we worry obsessively that she may develop a nuclear weapon someday. Never mind that a radicalized Pakistan has nuclear weapons; our friend Musharraf won’t lift a finger against Bin Laden, who most likely is hiding there. Our only defense against this emerging nuclear threat has been to use, and threaten to use, weapons that do not meet the needs of this new and different enemy.”

That video doesn’t prove anything. Except that Predators take lousy video.
From an operational perspective, acting on that Predator feed would have been difficult. 3-7 hours is a reasonable timeframe to send missiles that way. Unfortunately, to saturate the Tarnak Farms (to provide a reasonable kill probability if he remained in the area) would require a huge number of missiles. Without establishing a pattern with a reasonable expectation that he would remain in the area, then a missile strike would be very risky. If it failed, then Bin Laden would be tipped off and greatly increase his security making future attempts much more difficult. A second failed attempt to kill him would have many other negative repercussions as well. A Special Forces strike team was, at the time, virtually impossible logistically due to basing and aircraft range limitations (to say nothing of overflight permission), especially considering the force needed to kill hundreds of terrorists in the camp.
So a decisionmaker in this situation is faced with a choice: Conduct a relatively low probability-to-kill missile strike or collect further intelligence on patterns of behavior, travel, etc. to ensure success in a future strike. If it were me, at that time, I probably wouldn’t have ordered a strike either. With 20/20 hindsight I might have tried, but killing Bin Ladin in 2000 would not have prevented the 9/11 attacks as the operation was already underway.
So that video proves squat. Just another bizarre effort by the Bush pukes here to deflect blame from the American President who let 9/11 happen. On his watch.

Time to educate the wingnuts:
“In the late 1970s and the 1980s the CIA spent over $4 billion on a program called “Operation Cyclone.” This was our contribution to setting up training schools in Pakistan and elsewhere, including the U.S. itself, to teach “sabotage skills.” The purpose was to use these individuals in fighting our enemies in the Middle East, including the Soviets. But as one could predict, this effort has come back to haunt us, as our radical ally Osama bin Laden turned his fury against us after routing the Soviets. It is estimated that over 12,000 fighters were trained in the camps we set up in Afghanistan. They were taught how to make bombs, carry out sabotage, and use guerilla war tactics. And now we’re on the receiving end of this U.S. financed program— hardly a good investment.”

“From “The Declaration of Independence”… it’s a little piece of U.S. history the Bush-Bots seem to have never read… the most germane section I have extracted below for your review. See how it pertains to today’s discussion:
“Prudence indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shown, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security.”
Do we need to CHANGE OUR WAYS? Meh. Worked for 200+ years hasn’t it? Hasn’t it? Do we need to remove a despot… yeah. Time’s come. Tony Blair is waving the white flag. “Gee Golly Dub” should follow suit. You’ve failed America. You’ve failed History… hahahaha… failed History. Like it’s a course! Cause that was probably true! Ok, nm. Onward. We CANNOT be a free peoples if we are under the rule of such a tyrant. So many citizens (hello, polls?) have said they are NOT satisfied with THIS administration. They want the ADMINISTRATION to acknowledge their concerns and DO SOMETHING. Nil is done. Nothing has changed. Why are we “staying the course” if the CITIZENRY wants the “course” to change?! “Because we stand behind the president!” Grrrreat. Is that what you plan on telling your grandchildren? We “stood behind him and watched America dissipate. Sorry. Mulligan. Ya’ll should really plan better this time!”

Yes, I saw it a day or so late. The thing I found so amazing about the column was how liberals are so violently allergic to the very idea of offering their lives in the defense of the United States and their fellow citizens.
They would cower and whimper their way to safety and leave the women and children to fight the terrorists.

The neo-com fantasy-spinners at Disney would love to sugarcoat history. Revisionism is the Bush dynasty’s tool. It’s a tactic that will haunt them.
It’s not the inaccuracies of “The Path to 9/11” that make ABC’s mini-series so upsetting. It’s the situation on the ground in Afghanistan now.
This television movie about the rise of Al Qaeda comes at a time when the Taliban is flaunting a resurgence in Afghanistan. Sept. 11 drove the United States to clean out that terrorist hole-in-the-wall, once and for all. After all the lessons learned from Sept. 11, the Taliban is back and growing stronger while the American military there seems as bogged down as it is in Iraq, powerless to check the spiraling violence.
Hindsight is heartbreaking and disturbing to watch, even in a made-for-television movie. But it’s even harder to take when those steps continue to contaminate the present.
You remember Afghanistan? And the Taliban? And al Qaeda? And Osama? No, Bush and his groupies can’t be bothered.
Wher’s Osama?

Gianni Magazzeni, chief of the U.N. human rights office in Iraq, which tracks casualty figures from Iraq’s government, confirmed Thursday that the government-run Baghdad morgue had reported 1,536 dead for August.”
And commented, “Let’s see, body counts averaging 15 per month now up to 1,500 per month. Are they still greeting us as ‘liberators…’”
Well, let’s see…prior to removing Saddam, the dead were simply tossed into mass graves after Saddam’s cronies gassed them or hit them with chemicals. At least now, they get to go to a morgue.

ATPATT,
John Kerry the Leaker:
{The outrage over Plame) seems stranger still in light of the fact that the aforementioned Senator John Kerry is himself guilty of outing CIA Agent Fulton Armstrong several weeks ago at a confirmation hearing for UN Ambassador Nominee John Bolton.}
The CIA had asked that the agent’s name be withheld, but that did not stop Kerry from inserting it into a question to Bolton: “Did Otto Reich share his belief that Fulton Armstrong should be removed from his position?” In answering the question Bolton replaced “Armstrong” with the pseudonym “Smith,” but of course the damage had been done.
John Kerry and “normalizing” relations with Vietnam:
{{In 1991 the Senate created the Select Senate Committee on POW/MIA Affairs to investigate the possibility that U.S. prisoners of war and soldiers designated missing in action were still alive in Vietnam. Acting as chairman, Kerry helped persuade the group to vote unanimously that no American servicemen still remained in Vietnam. In doing so, he helped begin the process of normalizing U.S.-Vietnamese relations.}}
But Kerry’s participation in the Committee became controversial in December 1992 when Hanoi announced that it had awarded Colliers International, a Boston-based real estate company, an exclusive deal to develop its commercial real estate potentially worth billions. Stuart Forbes, the CEO of Colliers, is Kerry’s cousin.
Note that the last blurb is from a Dem website, so it’s possible that it’s all a lie. Ha Ha.

Evidence continues to accumulate that the Bush idiots misplanned the “liberation” of Iraq. Bungled it. Sent young Americans to die in a sucking sandpit. Incredible incompetence that defies comprehension.
From this morning’s Hampton Roads (VA) “Daily Press”:
Months before the United States invaded Iraq in 2003, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld forbade military strategists from developing plans for securing a post-war Iraq, the retiring commander of the Army Transportation Corps said Thursday.
In fact, said Brig. Gen. Mark Scheid, Rumsfeld said “he would fire the next person” who talked about the need for a post-war plan.
It gets worse.
Rumsfeld ordered planning for the Iraq war to begin just months after 9/11. He was living the Downing Street Memo motto: Fix the facts to support the policy. And dumb civilian that he was, he never grasped the possibility that at least some Iraqis might resent the destruction and occupation of their country:
“In his own mind he thought we could go in and fight and take out the regime and come out. But a lot of us planners were having a real hard time with it because we were also thinking we can’t do this. Once you tear up a country you have to stay and rebuild it. It was very challenging.”
I can’t WAIT until that scene is depicted in the upcoming expose, “Iraq: Dubya’s Disaster, or now the Neocons screwed up the nation and the world”.

“We really thought that after the collapse of the regime we were going to do all these humanitarian type things,” he said. “We thought this would go pretty fast and we’d be able to get out of there. We really didn’t anticipate them to continue to fight the way they did or come back the way they are.
“Now we’re going more toward a civil war. We didn’t see that coming.”
While Scheid, a soldier since 1977, spoke candidly about the days leading up to the invasion of Iraq, he remains concerned about the American public’s view of the troops.
He’s bothered by the nationwide divide over the war and fearful that patriotism among citizens will continue to decline.
“We’re really hurting right now,” he said.

What is the mission of US troops in Iraq?
To protect the underwriter’s liability in the reconstruction. If we cut and run, then the insurance companies would have to pay out anyway, so the army will stay put: for that reason and that reason alone.
Saudi underwriting? That would explain why clinton didn’t dare kill osama with saudi royalty in the vicinity, now wouldn’t it?
Iraq reconstruction fact: You dont set that much committed money and resources in motion without underwriting. Fact.

N-GA, If street cred is what you have. No thanks. I’ve seen your challenges one time too many. I’ve never witnessed anything so stupid in my life.
rushncap has been a good read on occasion, problem is it’s not often enough. Calling people liars when you can’t prove it is careless and stupid.
midori, No, I’m not Andy, but then you’re ignorant enough to believe anything, so is it any wonder you’re paranoid?
getalife, I said it earlier, you socialist dreamers scare me more than any terrorist ever could or would.

Half way, Collin. Wow, congrats. And yes, I’ve read them, along with some (not all) anti-Federalist papers.
Was your whole long diatribe a build-up to your gem about me supposedly having sex with someone? Took you that long to set up that “joke”?
And I was not calling you a liar. You’d have been a liar if you said “I read the Federalist papers”. You didn’t. I simply called attention to that fact. If I were calling someone a “liar” you’d know it. Now go blow something that moves.

As usual, Clinton figures that the rest of us are too stupid or lazy to look it up for ourselves. And having read the complete report when it came out more than two years ago, I think it is an inescapable fact that a vacillating, equivocating administration had more than one opportunity to take out terrorist mastermind Bin Laden, but blew it.
We always hear you weenies harping on “where’s Osama” unless of course, we are talking about the first president that missed him:
“He expected the missiles to fly. When the decision came back that they should stand down, not shoot, the officer said, ‘We all just slumped.’ He told [the commission] he knew of no one at the Pentagon or the CIA who thought it was a bad game. Bin Laden ‘should have been a dead man’ that night, he said.”
And here’s one reitred military general that I bet you pervert pinkos don’t make a big deal out of what he thinks:
Lt. Gen William Boykin, a founding member of the elite Delta Force, told the commission, “…opportunities were missed because of an unwillingness to take risks and a lack of vision and understanding.”
You’re right, metrosexuals, where is Osama?

Hearing voices again, are we? I never said that Iraq had WMDs. But you’re deep into your booze fueled fantasy land. Saying Bush never claimed a Saddam-Osama link. Then denying it. Saying Clinton helped kill Kurds, then ignoring evidence he protected them. Saying the Kurds lived in the marshes, then saying you never said it. (oh it was so DELICIOUS posting those links to your fibs!) Saying the “allies” restored the marshes, then ignoring evidence they didn’t.

Well, exactly. They supposedly spent years working on it to get it absolutely right, to get the absolute truth, and then they’re frantically staying up late the night before it broadcasts snipping out ten minutes here and there, because Bill Clinton and Sandy Berger and various other Clintton apparatchiks object to this or that line here and there. I mean, that makes them look pathetic, it makes ABC, I think, look ridiculous, in fact, because there’s hundreds of these tapes out there. People are going to know exactly what lines were cut and what weren’t cut, and I don’t even think it works for the Democratic Party, because it reminds people that in fact, when…if you’re of a conspiratorial bent about 9/11, and a lot of people are, the only guy who’s actually been discovered to be destroying evidence is old Sandy Pants himself, Sandy Berger.-HughHewitt

Either these liberals think you are stupid or these liberals are stupid; pick your choice:
Bush had no intention of putting enough troops on the ground to rout the Taliban and catch Osama bin Laden; he didn’t plan to spend the money or make the commitment to rebuild Afghanistan; he didn’t have the vision or the patience required to resurrect a failed state. So it comes as no great surprise that, five years after Sept. 11, Afghanistan has reverted to a caldron of violence and corruption, a haven for jihadists and narco-terrorists, a miserable backwater teeming with contempt for central government authority.-QueenPinkoAJC
I’m going with the first choice, Mother Lib knows how stupid and easily led the pinko nation is:

Not only is Queen Pinko being blatantly dishonest by placing the blame where it doesn’t belong, she’s covering for the same multilateralism that these libs pushed so hard for.

CAPITOL HILL Sep 8, 2006 (AP)— A Senate intelligence committee report says there’s no evidence Saddam Hussein had a relationship with terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi or his al-Qaida associates before the Iraq war.-A BS
Really?
National-security adviser Sandy Berger suggested that the U.S. send just one U-2 flight, but the report says Clarke worried that even then, Pakistan’s intelligence service would warn bin Laden that the U.S. was preparing for a bombing campaign. “Armed with that knowledge, old wily Usama will likely boogie to Baghdad,” Clarke wrote in a February 11, 1999 e-mail to Berger. The report says that another National Security Council staffer also warned that “Saddam Hussein wanted bin Laden in Baghdad.”-Powerline

This is not an exhaustive list. And while we do not know what proportion of al Qaeda’s senior ranks are dead or in jail, Zawahiri must write letters to associates to find out whether his messages have aired on al-Jazeera. Al Qaeda has spawned imitators and affiliates, which trade on its radical infamy. But the ability of bin Laden and Zawahiri to plan and execute terrorism seems to have been massively degraded, and it shows in the fact that five years later there has been no major terrorist attack in the U.S., nor any, anywhere, comparable in scale to the attacks of that day.-OpinionJournal

One of his main goals now, also like Truman, is to institutionalize some of his antiterror policies by putting them on firmer legal and political ground so future presidents can use them. That’s what his speech this week on military tribunals was mainly about, and the same goes for warrantless wiretaps and CIA interrogations of al Qaeda suspects. For all of the controversy they’ve caused, Mr. Bush is convinced that the next president will be grateful to have these tools. And despite all the partisan rancor surrounding them, Mr. Bush’s legacy in defending them is likely to be lasting.
When I put to him the criticism made by Newt Gingrich, among others, that the U.S. security bureaucracy is too slow and unwieldy, he couldn’t rebut it fast enough. “I disagree strongly,” he says. “We were stove-piped in the past. We had an FBI whose primary responsibility was white-collar crime or criminality. We had a CIA that couldn’t talk to criminal investigators. And we’ve changed all that.”-OpinionJournal

They have brought the end of two cruel and dangerous regimes, and they continue to plant the seeds of liberty in their place.

Contrast that^^ to what the Jolly Green Goofball has to say:
Third, we are threatened not just by gun barrels, but by oil barrels. The great treasury of jihadist terrorism is Mideast oil. We fund both sides in the war on terror every time we fill up our gas tanks. We must liberate the Middle East from the tyranny of dependence on petroleum, so that the region is no longer isolated from the global economy. Nothing will change if autocratic regimes are kept in power by pumping prosperity out of the ground and paying off their own people with petrodollar welfare checks. We must end the empire of oil. We need a comprehensive strategy to break our oil addiction.-BostonHeraldJonhBandaidKerry

Why can’t we Americans wise up and see the Islamic fascist threat? I blame the news media first, and irresponsible politicians like Howard Dean second. The hatred the committed left-wing press has for President Bush is almost unprecedented. The liberal media is obsessed with Bush and devalue him 24/7. This means that even when the president is correct on policy, the Bush haters will not admit it. They have succeeded, especially overseas, in convincing millions of people that Bush is the world’s greatest threat, not the fanatical Muslim jihad.-HumanEvents

It’s no secret that former Clinton administration officials, including the former president himself, are quite sensitive to questions about their response, or lack thereof, to al Qaeda’s attacks on America.

As it enacts new rules for military commissions, Congress—as well as the public—should keep two overriding principles in mind. One: While the jihadists detained at Guantanamo Bay must have due process of law before they can be criminally punished, they are not—despite a billowing cloud of confused reasoning, misleading testimony and downright propaganda—entitled, under the U.S. Constitution or relevant international law, to the same level of procedural protections enjoyed by the lawful soldiers of sovereign states. Two: The methods of warfare employed by unlawful combatants in the war on terror fully justify extraordinary trial rules.-OpinionJournal

When a liberal obstructs America from producing it’s own oil, this must be what they want:
Last year, the hemorrhage of cash flowing abroad to pay for crude oil imports topped $230 billion; this year it could easily reach $300 billion. But there’s another aspect of this outflow of capital — some portion of every dollar we spend on imported oil finds its way into the hands of nations who wish us ill. Oil money is funding groups like Hamas, Hezbollah and al Qaeda, enabling them to plan and perhaps execute the next September 11-type attack. It is also oil money — much of it from Saudi Arabia — funding the madrassas or Islamic schools that spread the radical, militant Islamist viewpoint that gave us the Taliban and September 11 and is now feeding civil strife throughout the Islamic world.-WashingtonTimes

Finally, after all these years, “conservative” Steve Chapman says something I agree with:
But five years on from the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the most striking event is the one that didn’t occur. There has been no attack on American soil linked to Osama bin Laden and his colleagues. On that one day, they were able to hijack four airplanes, kill nearly 3,000 people and strike fear in every American. And in all the days since, they have been unable to do anything remotely comparable.-RealClearPolitics

Bin Laden may have thought so, too. As it turned out, though, he didn’t ignite an Islamic war against the United States — he only provoked the wrath of the world’s greatest military power, which proceeded to crush his little band like ants.

Five years on, half America has retreated to the laziest old tropes, filtering the new struggle through the most drearily cobwebbed prisms: All dramatic national events are JFK-type conspiracies, all wars are Vietnam quagmires.

And, given that free societies tend naturally toward a Katrina mentality of doing nothing until it happens, one morning we will wake up to another day like the “day that changed everything.” Sept. 11 was less “a failure of imagination” than an ability to see that America’s enemies were hiding in plain sight.MarkSteynChicagoSunTimes
