Here’s Osama bin Laden in a 2004 audio message: ‘The most important and serious issue today for the whole world is this Third World War, which the Crusader-Zionist coalition began against the Islamic nation. It is raging in the land of the two rivers. The world’s millstone and pillar is in Baghdad.
{{{Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.) asked Army Lt. Gen. David H . Petraeus during his confirmation hearing yesterday if Senate resolutions condemning White House Iraq policy “would give the enemy some comfort.}}}
{{{Senate rebukes Bush- Urinal Front Page}}}
What means more to the AJC, cheap political points or the security of the United States?
The article from above in the Urinal makes absolutely no mention of the pork that was added into the spending bill, not one word.
Anti American democrat party harpies is what this “news” paper is.

{{{Those of you who criticize Mike Luckovich should note that all three political cartoons in this week’s Newsweek are Mike’s! We have a gem here, people!}}}
I thought that all three cartoons sucked so it makes perfect sense that PMSNBC’s “News” week would be so aroused by them
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
At one point, Schumer asked Sampson to confirm that McNulty had been left out of the loop on the forced resignations of eight U.S. Attorneys, a patently absurd question, given that DOJ emails and time stamps confirmed that McNulty was clearly in the loop on all firings, as were his chief of staff and a key aide, David Margolis.
So if Sampson lied about this, what else was he lying about?
You can pretty much throw out all of his testimony.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
{{{However, in the five and a half years since September 11, 2001, there have been roughly 40,000 killings by gangs and gang members in this United States of America, mostly in the African-American and Hispanic sections of large cities. Huge swaths of major American cities, especially my home city of Los Angeles, are “no-go” zones for law-abiding people from outside the neighborhoods and even police go into them reluctantly. The innocent women, children, old folks and non-gansgsta men in the communities are living in a nonstop reign of terror. We watch on the national news every day about the killings in Baghdad — and they are terrible. But the local news in every large city and many medium-sized ones begins with a parade of killings by gangs in the past 24 hours, killings of old people in their living rooms, of little girls heading home from church.}}}
When will CNN lead with this?
Can’t they score any political points with it?
3000 deaths in the war on terror versus 40,000 deaths for nothing, absolutely pointless mindless barbarism, we don’t hear a freaking peep from the pinkos.

Love the ‘toon.
To make the picture more accurate, there should be 2.8 water fountains labeled Neo-cons and 7.2 fountains labeled American Patriots.
Also, the Neo-Con fountain needs to mounted on a wall covered with mold, with rodent feces sprinkled underneath – what’s good enough for our vets is good enough for them.
Oh, and since they don’t really care about the environment – the water can come straight from the “Hootch”.

Yes it’s a true great divide. The Democrats do all they do to divide and conquer. Only their division envisions defeat as part of their plan for victory. And now Cartoon Boy is blaming the Republicans for the divide when the Democrats have violated their pledges about cooperation and inclusion - i.e. allowing the minority to introduce amendments etc… They are just acting the way they did in the forty straight years they controlled the House of Representatives.
They are also busy manufacturing scandals where none exist and ole Chucky Schumer was saying guilty until proven innocent yesterday during the Senate Judiciary Committee Inquisition.
And What do all of you apologists for America’s enemies say about the coerced confessions of the British sailors and the fact that the Iranians have gone back on their word to release the woman sailor? I guess you all agree with Rosie O’Donnell - America and her allies are always wrong!

Well, my first post didn’t make it in, so let’s try again ml.
I find it somewhat “subversive” that you would use “water fountains” to make your point. I’d like some clarification. Is the Democratic party the defeatists or are the large percentage of minorities that vote Democrat “the defeatists”.
On to the real reason for the “great divide”.
Veto Any Iraq Withdrawal Timeline, Veterans Tell Bush
“The IVAW head also criticized the Democrats for “putting forth the image that they’re trying to end the war” but instead using their opposition as “a stalling tactic to put them in place to do well in the 2008 elections by continuing to make the administration look back without actually ending the war.”
“Kurpius agreed that the votes in Congress are “pure, partisan politics” even though the troops’ lives are in the balance, but he was more concerned with the impact the final bill would have on the eventual outcome of the Iraq war.”
“”America will not lose the war in Iraq because of enemy action; our defeat will be caused by the lack of American resolve to finish what it starts,” he said.”
So, the VFW and the IVAW agree on something.
Democrats suck. They’re political opportunists.

You liberals remind of a stupid oafish clod that I knew when I was growing up. This dullard used to get his jollies by chasing younger kids that would walk by the back of his house, like he did to me one day. To correct this, I traveled by the front of his house the next day with no problems. It took him 6 months to figure out what was going on and soon after that started chasing me again.
So I had my friend walk through the following day, get this moron to chase him and lead him by the corner of a building, which I was standing behind out of sight with a 2 X 4.
Needless to say, the clod pinko did not chase anyone anymore.
This^^ is exactly what Bush needs to do with Congress.
Lead them to the corner of a building and crease their freaking foreheads.

RECOMMENDED READING
Bush’s veto pen kills troops.
Bush’s veto sends troops to Iraq without rest, without armor, and without training. No president in American history has ever abandoned troops in the field to die. But George W. Bush is about to show you he’s “man enough” to do it, just to prove he can.
That’s because he’s not serious about accomplishing anything in Iraq. Nobody could look at his record of failure there and conclude otherwise.
As for his concern about setting an artificial deadline, with or without this bill there’s already an artificial deadline: January 20, 2009. Because it’s simply not physically possible to elect another president so willfully ignorant and as openly traitorous as this one. In short, George W. Bush is the only person on the planet who believes this occupation can feasibly last one day longer than his term in office. So anyone who pretends that moving the date up a few months is going to make a damned bit of difference in this disaster just isn’t doing any serious thinking about the situation.
But in the meantime, George W. Bush will veto troop readiness, and then lock himself in his bunker while they die.
And he’s chomping at the bit to do it, too.

Signers of this petition so far include 2,660 physicists, geophysicists, climatologists, meteorologists, oceanographers, and environmental scientists (select this link for a listing of these individuals) who are especially well qualified to evaluate the effects of carbon dioxide on the Earth’s atmosphere and climate.

For all of you committed Socialists out there and Republicans (political appeasers) who think that giving in to the Socialists is a good idea, I just lifted this from the Encyclopaedia Brittanica. I checked Wikipedia and they had the identical article:
After a series of privatisations and reforms in the late 1990s and early 2000s, government intervention in the Romanian economy is somewhat lower than in other European economies.[17] In 2005, the liberal-democrat Tăriceanu government replaced Romania’s progressive tax system with a flat tax of 16% for both personal income and corporate profit, resulting in the country having one of the lowest fiscal burdens in Europe, a factor which has contributed to the growth of the private sector.
The reason I have cited this for you folks is that the Defeatocrats have decided to RAISE taxes by a total of $400 billion after the next election by letting the tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 “die.” I guess they want a stagnant economy with zero growth and high unemployment as they have in Franc, Spain, Germany and Great Britain right now?

Did you see the video of “M C Rove” the other night on the news? I would guess that old Rove was about the geekiest kid in the neighborhood, even geekier than Luck. It’s no wonder that the trauma he experienced from the taunts of the other kids turned him into the kind of freak he is. Too bad he wants to take it out on the rest of the nation and the world.
Bush is the same way. Always dismissed as the family clown who would never make anything of himself, he tries to compensate by getting in way over his head and the whole country suffers.
I hate to think of Cheney’s childhood. His persona only reveals a hint of the darkness within. I wonder if a book will ever be written about it. It might be more entertaining that Mailer’s new historical novel on Hitler’s childhood.

Neos become more laughable by the day. They’re like lab rats who have been trained to push a lever to get a reward; now that the lever is gone they’re still pushing air where the lever used to be.
Sadly for the rats, the world has moved on. Even sadder is the fact that the rats have not realized yet that the tired old mechanisms of deflection and obfistucation: to urban crime in the USA, Hillary and her wayward husband, or about anything other than the failure of neo-politics and conservativism ala George W. Bush, are not working any longer.
The advantage to be gained by attack politics has waned. The people are now fully awake and focused on ACTION. Republicans are now just alienating ever large segments of the voting population in a futile attempt to hold onto an intractable base that doesn’t have any ability to compromise and govern.
The Rovian windfall slash and burn strategy that had been embraced by Republican leaders is now becoming a very bitter harvest, indeed! Now they either have to alienate their base or eschew any possibility of appealing to centrists. They are well and truely, screwed beyond immediate recovery.
Genuine conservatives have now defected to the Democratic party where their efforts at conservative reform have more chance of bearing fruit. As Gov Schwarzenegger recently said in referring to Rush Limbaugh, neos have now become “IRRELEVANT”!

Taken in perspective, who could dreamed 5 years ago we could have this kind of disaster?
Harkening back to “Comments just too hard to believe”, Rummy the Dummy said you don’t necessarily have the Army you want when you go to war.
That’s true maybe, if the Japanese Navy attacks you in Pearl Harbor.
And I remember hearing 2-3 years ago about how some of the artillery units in Iraq were running patrols in Hummers.
That’s not what they are trained for.
And there were not enough MP’s so reservists from Pennsylvania were guarding POW’s at Abu Ghraib.
Bush and his people didn’t do the most rudimentary due diligence on this.
It really will come down to what Michael Moore asked in 2004: when will our young people trust us to send them to war again?
And this morning I had to laugh because I had an e-mail from the Army Recruiting Command.

I’m at a loss to understand why it is that even some people on our side and the conservative media think throwing Gonzales away is going to stop this.

There’s an election that’s going to hinge on stuff like this, and everybody the administration throws overboard is a tantamount admission to people that pay scant attention to politics there’s all kinds of corruption going on in there.

@@ - I said probably because I have no absolute proof that the Democrat will not follow the same route as the corrupt Republicans before. He may - or He May Not! That is entirely up to his moral standards. Money sadly corrupts most anyone.
But - He “Probably” will do the right thing with all the eyes now looking at the “Government Contract Process” especially after the events of KBR and Cheney.
I do not see your article saying URS Corp., got this contract in a no-bid contract, nor that Feinstein had anything to do with the bid process.
So - You are once again making a non-point argument.
whereas:
U.S. oil and war profiteers are making out like bandits. On January 7, 2007 the UK Guardian reported that Kellogg, Brown & Root (KBR), a division of the energy and military giant Halliburton, had secured contracts in Iraq worth $13 billion including an uncontested $7 billion contract to rebuild Iraq’s oil infrastructure. KBR has 30,000 employees in Iraq. Over 150 US companies have been given contracts in Iraq worth over $50 billion.
So again — I have to clarify a non-point question here that I already answered before.

I remember seeing a CBS report hosted by Mike Wallace in the 1960s talking about Franco in Spain and how he was no friend to free enterprise.
On the other hand, you and the other libs on this blog are constantly backing Socialist programs and ideals. You want higher taxes, more government interference in the economy and mock any reference to allowing the free market to solve problems, as it always does when allowed. You are Socialists because you back a “poddy” which aims to do all of these things - the more govenment the better. The best example of this would be the late Senator Wellstone from Minnesota.

Rudolph W. Giuliani told a grand jury that his former chief investigator remembered having briefed him on some aspects of Bernard B. Kerik’s relationship with a company suspected of ties to organized crime before Mr. Kerik’s appointment as New York City police commissioner, according to court records.
Mr. Giuliani, testifying last year under oath before a Bronx grand jury investigating Mr. Kerik, said he had no memory of the briefing, but he did not dispute that it had taken place, according to a transcript of his testimony.
Mr. Giuliani’s testimony amounts to a significantly new version of what information was probably before him in the summer of 2000 as he was debating Mr. Kerik’s appointment as the city’s top law enforcement officer. Mr. Giuliani had previously said that he had never been told of Mr. Kerik’s entanglement with the company before promoting him to the police job or later supporting his failed bid to be the nation’s homeland security secretary.

HHS official quits after Medicaid action KEVIN FREKING Associated Press WASHINGTON - The head of the federal office responsible for providing women with access to contraceptives and counseling to prevent pregnancy resigned unexpectedly Thursday after Medicaid officials took action against him in Massachusetts.
The Health and Human Services Department provided no details about the nature of the Massachusetts action that led to Dr. Eric Keroack’s resignation.
Just five months ago, Keroack was chosen by President Bush to oversee HHS’ Office of Population Affairs and its $283 million annual budget. The pick angered Planned Parenthood and other groups that support abortion rights, which viewed him as opposed to birth control and comprehensive sex education. Keroack had worked for an organization that opposes contraception.
“Yesterday, Dr. Eric Keroack alerted us to an action taken against him by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ Office of Medicaid. As a result of this action I accepted his resignation,” Dr. John Agwunobi, assistant secretary for health, said in a terse statement Thursday evening.

REPUBILCANS “SEXY BACK”??? The New York Post, of all venues, reported recently that the Tennessee senator had of late become something of a sex object for “Capitol Hill hotties,” one of whom complained about “all these other women” who wouldn’t leave the senator alone. “I can’t get up to get a cocktail at a party without coming back and finding some girl sitting at my chair,” the woman was quoted as saying.
Margaret Carlson, the writer for Time and host for CNN, is described this way: “She calls his apartment all the time. It’s the joke all over Washington that Margaret has this huge crush on him. And Fred is clearly not interested.” (To which the gallant Thompson responded: “I generally don’t comment on these matters, but as it relates to the statements made about my friend Margaret Carlson, I should be so lucky.”)

Is Rudy also in the pockets of the Mafia? You decide:
Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani acknowledged again Friday that he made a mistake when he recommended Bernard Kerik to be the nation’s homeland security chief. The acknowledgment followed a report in The New York Times that the former New York City mayor was warned about Kerik’s relationship with a company with suspected ties to organized crime even before Giuliani appointed Kerik as New York City police commissioner.
Apparently Kerik’s Mafia ties did not even matter to Rudy way back in 2000. This could be a big problem for ole Rudy in ‘08.

Just an observation here on the British sailors being held by Iran.
The location of the sailors provided by the UK govt places the 2 boats 1.7 miles inside Iraqi waters an hour before the incident took place, this is the last location called in by the UK sailors as they boarded a ship to inspect it.
An hour passes without any update on location.
6 Iranian boats surround and arrest the 15 sailors on two UK boats.
The legality of the incident is dependent upon a line in the water. The question I have about this is in a region with 3 US aircraft carrier groups with all attendent ships, constant air survailence by US and UK forces, if the British location is correct, how would 6 Iranian boats get 1.7 miles inside Iraqi waters without challenge?

These questions are for the real Americans posting here.
I am a right-wing nut job in training and I support the war, the President and hate liberals. Lately however I have been limited to beating them with clubs rather than logic because for some reason I can’t answer these commies’ questions about Iraq. Help me out so that I can address them. These are a few:
1) Isn’t our presence in Iraq putting off the inevitable blood-letting that will take place whenever we leave? Won’t the Shia and the Sunni and the Kurds fight for their own interests and seek to dominate as much of the resources of the country as they can? Isn’t it simply a question of when?
2) Because the Shia are the dominant sect won’t they win a large portion of Iraq if not the whole and then allay with Iran, their Shia brothers?
3) Won’t the Shia set up an Islamic state similar to Iran and the Taliban that at best tolerates and at worst harbors terrorists?
4) Aren’t we in the same or worse position than we were before March 2003 vis-a-vis the Middle East at the cost of thousands of lives and billions of dollars?
5) What should victory look like to us real Americans? How will we know it when we see it? How we will get there?
I understand that the name calling and attacks are fun, especially with bats, but I’d like to hear some constructive arguments that I can use for when my arms are tired.

Republican always have to run down the Democrats cause that’s all they ever had. They can’t point to THEIR plan to win in Iraq cause THEY NEVER PLANNED, consequently they’re reduced to placing token bandaids on the hemmorhaging catastrophy that is Iraq today. They can’t point to improvements in foreign affairs because they have denigrated America’s standing in the theater of world opinion.
Their economy is stagnant, mortgages are failing at a rate unparalleled in american history, basic personal freedoms have been seized in the name of ‘safety’, the health crisis and the number of America’s uninsured have remained unaddressed and have thereby increased exponentially, the national debt continues to soar unabated, energy costs have rocketed through the stratospere, they have attempted to outsource vital american interests in the transportaion sector to foreign muslim governments (Dubai Ports) that probably have no great love of America, at best, and worst of all they have virtually eliminated the system of checks and balances instutued by the founding fathers through abrogating their congressional responsibilities to provide oversight to a President who so very clearly needed it.

Good briefing from the MOD. It says a lot and misses alot at the same time. There is no time reported for the abduction, and no overflight to determine location, and the tracking for the boarding party is offline at 9:10 AM. Nor does it say how many ships were invloved.
This should be an easy thing to figure, what I cannot understand is that in the worlds most heavily monitored and patroled waterway how, from intial reports, 6 iranian ships can get 1.7 miles inside iraqi waters and not be challanged, or have any cooberating radar track of where they are. There should be EC2 coverage of the area from the US. There should be radar tracks of all ships from the cornwall.

Yes, this is not the first time that Iraq has taken hostages. And why was that…
In the midst of World War II in 1941, Nazi Germany began Operation Barbarossa and invaded the Soviet Union, breaking the Nazi-Soviet non-aggression pact. The act had a huge impact on Iran, as the country had technically declared neutrality. However, Iran had maintained good relations with Nazi Germany and was seen by some as a potential member of the Axis. Thus a preventive invasion was staged by the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union.
During the subsequent military occupation, the Allies forced Reza Shah to abdicate in favor of his son, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. He replaced his father on the throne on September 16, 1941. It was hoped that the younger prince would be more open to influence from the pro-Allied West, which later proved to be the case.
The Shah also authorized the creation of the secret police force, SAVAK (National Organization for Information and Security, which was organized with the help of the CIA and Mossad). This infamous agency operated its own secret prison, used torture extensively, assassinated dissidents, and kept the CIA informed. Abuses by SAVAK laid the foundation for support of the Islamic Revolution which swept the Shah from power in 1979 and resulted in exile for the remainder of his life.
Reluctantly, on 22 October 1979 President Jimmy Carter allowed the Shah to make a brief stopover in the United States to undergo medical treatment. The compromise was extremely unpopular with the revolutionary movement, which were against the United States’ years of support of the Shah’s rule, and demanded his return to Iran to stand trial.
This resulted in the kidnapping of a number of American diplomats, military personnel and intelligence officers in what became known as the Iran hostage crisis. Once the Shah’s course of treatment had finished, the American government, eager to avoid further controversy, pressed the former monarch to leave the country.
The Iranian revolution and hostage crisis occurred because America supported a brutal, murdering dictator and tyrant, much as it supported Sadaam Hussein when he was America’s darling in the Middle East. Today we can only wonder if Iran was as justified in taking British hostages as they were in storming the American embassy in 1979. Historically speaking, you

You’re the one with it backwards.

WHAT IS A LOYAL REPUBLICAN?
A FACIST!
Fourteen Defining Characteristics Of Fascism By Dr. Lawrence Britt
Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.
Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.
Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.
Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.
Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.
Obsession with National Security - Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.
Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government’s policies or actions.
Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial busines

Bush Caught Hyping False Iraq Spending Deadline The Bush administration has been trying to force Congress to abandon its support for an Iraq withdrawal time line by claiming that a “clean” Iraq spending bill must be signed by mid-April or U.S. troops will suffer. The Hill reported, the Pentagon and the White House have been “sounding alarms and sketching worst-case scenarios if Congress does not pass the 2007 supplemental by April 15.”
Renewing his veto threat on Wednesday, President Bush told Congress “the clock is ticking for our troops in the field“:
BUSH: Congress continues to pursue these [withdrawal] bills, and as they do, the clock is ticking for our troops in the field. Funding for our forces in Iraq will begin to run out in mid-April. Members of Congress need to stop making political statements, and start providing vital funds for our troops.
Meanwhile, Rep. John Murtha (D-PA) and others have been arguing that Bush is wrong, and that funds won’t dry up until June, giving plenty of time for negotiations:
Murtha says he believes the April 15 date for funds running out is incorrect. Based on the inquiries he’s made, he said, the Pentagon will start running out of money at the beginning of June.
“We’ve never had a year where they didn’t give us bad information,” said Murtha, who’s known for his contacts inside the military. “We’ve been asking people and we think it’ll be the end of May.”
Now we know who’s right. A new report from the Congressional Research Service makes clear that Bush’s deadline is completely fabricated:
In a memo to the Senate Budget Committee dated Wednesday, the congressional analysts said the Army has enough money in its existing budget to fund operations and maintenance through the end of May — about $52.6 billion. If additional transfer authority is tapped, subject to Congress approving a reprogramming request, the Army would have enough funds to make it through nearly two additional months, or toward the end of July. Using all of its transfer authority, the Army could have as much as $60.1 billion available.
See the full CRS report HERE.
Commenting on the report, Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) said, “This study confirms that the President is once again attempting to mislead the public and create an artificial atmosphere of anxiety. He is using scare tactics to defeat bipartisan legislation that would change course in Iraq.”

RW: “Sleaze liberals” What are you talking about? Who are you talking about? They own you. You’re a fool. You have lost your capacity for critical thinking. Your carping about liberals makes you look stupid. Why does our thinking for ourselves bother you Bush toadies so much?

Another proud week for Bushie and the All-American Patriots and warriors who support him and his ilk. Well done.

The bull dy-ke Hillary defense:
{{{BOSTON — Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, amid a growing clamor for his resignation, acknowledged Friday there is confusion about of his role in firing U.S. attorneys and said he doesn’t “recall being involved in deliberations” over which would be ousted.}}}
Bravo Albert! Give those pinko goons some of their own medicine, that was the Clinton stock answer for everything, even when caught red handed with hard evidence against them.
If I were Albert, in the middle of the show trial I’d have my cellphone ring, I’d ask for a moment from the chief inquisitor and then would speak loudly into the phone “no Mr. President, I don’t need that pardon, yet.”
And then bust out laughing in Waxman’s f’ed up face.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Daniel,
Didn’t you spend most of this week saying you weren’t a liberal? Come Friday afternoon and you claim to not only be a liberal, but a proud one.
Law enforcement has to do with prosecuting or investigating a crime. Bringing people to show trials to try to find a crime is a witch hunt.

{{{House Of Representatives Silent on British Hostage Crisis WASHINGTON (AP) - Members of the House left Washington on Friday for their two-week spring break without weighing in on the international crisis tormenting the nation’s closest ally: the capture of 15 British sailors and marines by Iran.}}}
Silence is approval, right?
Or maybe in their mad rush to start the two week vacation, the “tough” “grinding” schedule under Pelosi, they forgot to say something?
Could be that it wasn’t worth the effort, you can’t attach pork to a statement.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
