Moose shit pie? but it's good!

"Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Friday that the Bush administration has probably made thousands of 'tactical errors' in its handling of the Iraq war. But she defended the invasion as the right strategic decision."

Bush Emphasizes Benefits of Guest Worker Program

That's good enough for me: Bush wants it, ergo it's shit. Oppose it like your life depended on it.

Daily Kos: Rove feared Yellowcake could sink Bush's reelection

Daily Kos: Rove feared Yellowcake could sink Bush's reelection
Bush knew. He knew. Everyone knew he knew. And they all know he lied.
He utterly failed to administer the oath of office, which must require that the man consider the facts of the matter.
He still utterly disregards the facts. Remove that man! Really. Remove him.

Bush Was Set on Path to War, British Memo Says - New York Times

NY times 3 years late and counting: we knew this then.
What the NY Times will NOT report on is the utter incompetence and stonewalling: the free press has no balls. None.

Bush's ethnic cleansing

"Part of the reason may be that most victims are Sunnis, and there is growing suspicion that they were killed by Shiite death squads backed by government forces in a cycle of sectarian revenge. This allegation has been circulating in Baghdad for months, and as more Sunnis turn up dead, more people are inclined to believe it.
'This is sectarian cleansing,' said Mahmoud Othman, a Kurdish member of Parliament, who has maintained a degree of neutrality between Shiites and Sunnis."

When the Sunnis are dead, there might be peace. And this IS a civil war and it is there because of Bush, because he conducted a war with such utter disregard for competence and the basic ethics of doing good labors on things. Because on his watch and because of his watch, people did bad things. Because, everwhere, on Bush's watch, and in our own house, people do bad things.

The empty president:
"Is President Bush the leader of our government, or is he just a right-wing talk-show host?
The question comes to mind after Bush's news conference this week in which he sounded like someone who has no control over the government he is in charge of. His words were those of a pundit inveighing against the evils of bureaucrats."

This captures the Bush admin: cheerleader, smarmy critic, a talk show host ordering a country to war!

roberts, scalia, thomas

fairly amazing that
1) Scalia is such an asshole
2) Roberts is stupid right out of the gate!
3) Clarence Thomas... no surprise at all.

"Roberts wrote that the ruling made no sense, given that the court had previously said it is constitutional for police to enter a house with the permission of one partner when the other is asleep or absent. Those rulings were unchanged by yesterday's decision.

Just by agreeing to live with someone else, a co-tenant has surrendered a good deal of the privacy that the Constitution's Fourth Amendment was designed to protect, Roberts noted.

'The majority's rule apparently forbids police from entering to assist with a domestic dispute if the abuser whose behavior prompted the request for police assistance objects,' he wrote.

But Souter called that argument a 'red herring,' saying that the police would still have legal authority to enter homes where one partner was truly in danger."

Oh shit: the FBI totally knew

the were told, in plenty of time, that there would be airplanes looking for targets. they were absolutely told. note the senate investigation did not find this... if you look at this incredible difference, you can reasonable say the Warren Commission was fatally flawed in denying an adversarial trial. It is likely the truth did NOT come out.
9/11 could have been stopped.

The Borowitz Report .com

"Stepping up to the microphone, an ebullient Mr. al-Sahaf said that conditions on the ground in Iraq “have never been better” and that the insurgency was “all but vanquished.” "

Bush could have said that.
Confuscious say: Truth is of no value to the man who has no need to speak it. And there is no truth without value.

A handsome (asshole) president

The Bush man is handsome, youthful, vigorous, tall, has all his hair: that is what a leader needs. That's all this country needs to go to war and stay there.
If he were pudgy like Clinton, we'd be well out of it.

queen bees, schools, and the unassertive drone

The assertive who claim "I can say that I speak for everyone" and the unassertive who don't/can't/won't say "no they don't".
You're supposed to STAND and be counted, not sit and be counted.

A completely bungled job

Milosevic Buried, With Praise and Condemnation
Too bloodless, too slow, too detached, in a world of their own... so, a genocidal murderer gets a heroes burial, and why not:
he was not convicted. that is some fucking lesson.
prosecuting genocidal murders is worse than just leaving them totally alone.

The Eden Illusion my ass

you gotta wonder abut who writes the editorials and what their interests and qualifications might me. and you have to take note that editorials are one way communications: have any comments? no thankyou.
so here network neutrality is dismissed. google is tarred (as if google were the only service of any kind to offer a toolbar) and as if google got to be and remains google for any other reason that it is far and away the best as fastest search engine ever and turned out to be a killer app for the net: not using google? you are at a disadvantage. tut tut.
and do companies work toward getting selected advanages: yes. they bid and buy and develop on an open market. and to some companies provide services for a price that will highlight a certain company: yes, and they sell that on the open market AND the mark, right in the result, that you are looking at a sponsored site.
but to have the telco do it? and without revealing the behind the scenes workings? so that what is undermined is the essential trust in the internet, making it quite an unlevel playing field, but who could tell?
oh, the the net isn't neutral now: that's the logic that used to be applied to women who objected to being raped: hey, they already did sex, and regularly! so what is one more?
if you haven't got anything that you can say good (ie, well), don't say it at all.
goddamn it! the press just shovels shit at us, nonfucking stop.

unlimited health care is not a right

health care is a governmental/societal provision that is for the good of those systems. there can be no "right" to be cured of whatever ails you. that is nonsense. the proof is, ultimately, is doesn't work, it cannot work. it is too expensive.

ABC News: Midshipman Testifies About Alleged Rape

If you get that drunk, you shouldn't even be in the Navy. You should always be able to take care of yourself. Yeah, you might lose, no shame in that, but sober and awake: is that too much to ask?

Cheney loads his gun: he will bomb in Iran

'scuse me, but what the fuck is a vice president doing stating national policy? Is George Bush such a total asshole? (hint: yes)

see, if I were Iran, I'd get a bomb from North Korea, I'd put it on a boat, I'd have it set to detonate if and only if it were attacked.
Just as insurance, I'd move a couple of auto-detonate bombs to South Korean border.
Actually, these Kim Jong Il or something and his Iranian counter part are no nuttier that Cheney. And Chavez is going to get the message too: Bush has ignited a cold war, and it is getting warm.
yep, I'd get at least one small doomsday device.
doesn't have to be forever, just until the United States comes to it's senses. But until then, oh yeah, I'd have a bomb.
And just for starters, I'd shut off the oil, totally. I'd build a huge reservoir, and just keep pumping, but nothing would leave the dock.

U.S. Is Seeking Better Balance in Iraqi Police - New York Times: "The United States faces the possibility that it has been arming one side in a prospective civil war. Early on, Americans ceded operational control of the police to the Iraqi government. Now, the police forces are overseen at the highest levels by religious Shiite parties with militias, and reports of uniformed death squads have risen sharply in the past year."
Oh, you mean that the democracy and the police and all this stuff we put together is killing you? Oops. My bad. And I do rather like the tone of the article, that is, the US is in a dicey position. Anybody notice that the Iraqis are really hurting from our "saving" them?

George Bush, again

Criminal Probe in Tillman Case Set to Open
When George "mission accomplished: Bush is the commander in chief, and he gets away with it, well, yeah, mistakes will happen.
If anyone thinks that it was only Tillman and not tons of other people, us, Iraqis, well that would be Geroge Bush class stupid.

Nuclear Deal Faces Skepticism From Congress and Allies - New York Times: "In concluding its nuclear deal with India, the Bush administration faces significant opposition in Congress and tough questions from its allies"

World news from The Times and the Sunday Times - Times Online: "FRESH charges of incompetence and dissembling were laid at the door of the White House yesterday after the release of tapes which show George Bush being warned about Hurricane Katrina’s devastating impact before the storm hit New Orleans"

U.S., India Seal Nuclear Deal

U.S., India Seal Nuclear Deal: "The agreement, which requires congressional action, is a major break with prior U.S. policy, which barred nuclear assistance to nations, like India, that have refused to sign the 1968 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty."
Pity Bush never discovered his dick. Or that it turned out to be Dick Cheney.
HIstoric, my ass: destrutive, unknowing, anything to save his own ass. (Iraq. And oh year, he's gonna get bin Laden. Hey George: you already had all your "at bats", the clock has run, it is so totally over.

CNN.com - Fox criticizes closure order for U.S.-owned hotel - Mar 1, 2006

CNN.com - Fox criticizes closure order for U.S.-owned hotel - Mar 1, 2006: "The U.S. Treasury Department said the hotel had to expel the Cubans to avoid violating the long-standing U.S. embargo against the communist-ruled island. But most Mexicans were angered by efforts to apply U.S. laws here, and the expulsions caused widespread resentment."
consider, again, UAE port management deal again. observe the influence of any foreign organization. observe that most likely, UAE would agree to persecute on demand according to Bush.
The executive office is out of control.

Bush is a total liar

CBC News: Bush was warned about threat of Katrina, video shows
He didn't ask question one. He did not ask "are we prepared for a levee break?" The man should go directly to hell and rot.

When Politics Defeats Science

not fair: politics are totally in play and pure science is not at the table.
how much does this stuff cost? how often can you take it? what happens if you take it a week late? do you still need birth control prescriptions?
would this be a cost effective way to get birth control: use it after you've fucked? might that be better? or worse? how about 10 doses in a row, day after day?
also, if you're 13... is that good for you? what about with alcohol?
somebody is NOT telling all the truth... if it's not the whole truth,
it's just not truth.

Bush Again Defends Deal on U.S. Seaports

this is interesting.
kind of like creationists: it does NOT matter what facts may be on the table, they just believe what they want to. they call in noble. I call it a human perversion.
