"I will set a different tone. I will

Tee Shirt (no longer) Available
Due to the dismal lack of sales on this item, I have decided
to pull it from the market. There weren't enough sales to
make it profitable, only irritating. |
Rhetoric -vs- Reality: we've heard the rhetoric, and now we've lived thru the
reality. See for yourself with the video above exactly how Bush is "restoring civility and respect" in the post-Clinton era.
As for Christian presidents, Bush isn't worthy to even wash the feet of Jimmy
Carter. Can you even IMAGINE Carter doing something like flipping off America?
Regardless, you Fundies are all thinking:
Thank goodness we have such a good and devout Christians leading our country!!!
Bush & Cheney are such better moral examples to our young people than that... BILL
CLINTON, who had- gasp! SEX outside of marriage. Who did he think he was
anyway, a man of the cloth such as Rev. Jimmy Swaggart or Rev. Jim Bakker,
carrying on that way?

Bush, Bushites, & Their Damn Crusade in Iraq
'We Will, In
Fact, Be Greeted As Liberators'
Pre-War Prediction of Dick Cheney, Meet The Press, March 16, 2003
750 Injured
Flown Out of Iraq Each Month
750 Per Month, Thanks
to George Bush This is the average
number of American soldiers that are injured so severely that they
are flown out of Iraq on hospital flights to Germany, month in and
month out, last month, this month, and every month to come, thanks
to George Bush- and those genius Christian Fundies that re-elected
him. Bush has these Americans driving around Baghdad etc. just to
provide target practice for Islamic snipers and bombers. And
let me remind the gung-ho pro-any-war types; there's no "glory" in
coming back from a war with a life-long brain injury, wearing a
dirty diaper and drooling on yourself for the rest of your life.

Just one out of 750 every month

Support The
Troops
Supporting the troops should mean keeping them out of
harms way unless the mission is absolutely necessary.
Iraq never was, nor now is, a mission that is absolutely
necessary. And the fact is, nobody even knows what the
hell the mission is anymore. Iraq is not worth to
the United States the horrible price that is being
extracted from our soldiers. You want to support the
troops? Get them the hell out of Iraq- now. Tell Mr Bush
to stop pissing away our military in this bullshit war
of his. |
"Support The Troops"
Republican Fundies:
"Support The Troops" to Fundy word twisters means sending
even more of them
into the meatgrinder of Iraq to die or get maimed.
Democrats: "Support The Troops"
means keeping them OUT OF Iraq in the first place to prevent
their being killed or maimed.
Question:
Who REALLY "supports the troops"????
Bill Maher
Commenting on George Bush

Bill Maher,
commenting on George Bush
This man, come on, let’s get real. Joe Scarborough did a
whole week of panel discussions on whether he was an
idiot.
And when you’ve lost Scarborough Country… And I think the
science is in on this question, I think he is, the people who were
defending him were saying, well, he’s just
inarticulate.
But inarticulate doesn’t explain foreign policy. I mean it’s not
that complicated. The man is a
rube,
he is a
dolt,
he is a
yokel
on the world stage, he is a
Gilligan
who cannot find his own ass with his own two hands. He is a
vain half-wit
who interrupts one incoherent sentence with another incoherent
sentence. …The alternatives (Gore and Kerry) would have actually
been better presidents both times. Al Gore would have been a better
president; John Kerry would have been a better president; NOT
because they’re democrats but because they READ. They’re READERS-
wow, what a concept. The republicans are the party of ideas. Big,
stupid ideas. … The surge means more of what’s not
working now. And this is an amazing situation, cause here’s George
Bush, the decider, deciding all on his own that this was a good
idea. This was not a recommendation from our commanders on the
ground. This was not a recommendation from the Iraq Study Group, as
you know. It’s not supported by the American people. It’s not
supported by the Iraqi people. It’s just President “Charles in
Charge” spit-balling, thinking outside the bun, and saying to
himself, “EVERYBODY else is wrong. I ALONE know what the right
answer is. I got everybody else’s recommendations, and then I, you
know, I talk to The Big Guy.” Even the Pope admitted being
wrong about that thing he said about the Muslims. But this
recovering alcoholic from Midland Texas,
HE cannot be wrong at ANY point. (The
Tonight Show, 2/20/07)
Emboldening The Terrorists
Barney Fife says: "Bush can do no wrong! So, whatEVER Bush did,
even break the law and bragging about it, well, it must have been
the right thing to do, 'cause Bush can do no wrong!"

"Let me tell you what is
endangering our troops: Sending our troops to war with
inadequate armor is endangering our troops. Not guarding the
ammo dumps is endangering our troops. What endangers our
troops is sending them to war without adequate numbers to do
the job." -Senator John Kerry, 11/18/05
"I like guys who've never been (to war) that criticize us who've
been there. I like that. I like guys who got five deferments
(i.e. Vice President Dick Cheney) and never been there and send
people to war, and then don't like to hear suggestions about what
needs to be done." -Congressman John Murtha 11/16/05

"Emboldening & Encouraging The Terrorists"
"Bring it
on!!!" G.W.
Bush
Thanks to George W. Bush's childish taunt inviting
Terrorists world-wide to come to Iraq and kill Americans, they have
been doing so now by the thousands. Brave but inept George is good at
starting fights that others have to finish, while he himself, Mr.
"Avoid Vietnam via National Guard" sits backs and
enjoys the mayhem from his easy chair safe in the White House. No one- I
repeat: NO ONE has "emboldened" or "encouraged" the terrorists
more than George himself with this stupid and
totally irresponsible taunt. Has any, ANYone, in this country, made
a personal and VERY public invitation to all the Terrorists of the
world to come and kill American soldiers in Iraq? Has Cindy Sheehan?
John Kerry? Michael Moore? If anyone is looking for grounds for
impeachment, here it is, for thanks to George's personal invitation,
terrorists from throughout the entire world have flocked to Iraq and
put over 2,125
Americans into body bags and blown arms and legs and other body
parts (think tits & dicks) off another 15,000 sons & daughters. "Emboldening The Terrorists"??? That's
you, George, you fucking dumbass.
Some of the other stupid things George has done that have aided, abetted and "emboldened" the enemy
(aren't those crimes???) are the following}
-
Disbanding the Iraqi army and stiffing them on
their pensions. RESULTS:
400,000 pissed-off well-armed & trained "I hate Americans!" unemployed
soldiers.
-
Allowing unrestrained looting to go on for a
month after our invasion. RESULTS: All
criminal records & government organization were destroyed.
-
Allowing Terrorists to empty out Saddam's
arsenals and ammo dumps. RESULTS: That
ammunition is now used in over 700 attacks PER DAY in Iraq.
-
Not ever putting enough American troops in to
get the job done. RESULTS: Always having to
go back and recapture the same areas: Fallujah- 4 times already.
-
Torture of prisoners, and desecration of the
Koran. RESULTS: Terrorists count this
as their #1 recruiting tool to sign people up worldwide to fight
against us.
-
Forcing American troops to drive around Iraq in
under-armored Humvees and totally UN-armored trucks rather than
using helicopters. RESULTS: Lots
of target practice for the bad guys, and 15,000 fucked-up
Americans.

his rich Arabian lover even richer. And watch how he continues

AN_APOLOGY_FROM_A_BUSH_VOTER
AN APOLOGY FROM A BUSH VOTER
Monday, May 8th, 2006
By Doug McIntyre / Host, McIntyre in the Morning Talk Radio 790 KABC
There’s nothing harder in public life than admitting you’re wrong. By the
way, admitting you’re wrong can be even tougher in private life. If you don’t
believe me, just ask Bill Clinton or Charlie Sheen. But when you go out on the
limb in public, it’s out there where everyone can see it, or in my case, hear
it.
So, I’m saying today, I was wrong to have voted for George W. Bush. In
historic terms, I believe George W. Bush is the worst two-term President in the
history of the country. Worse than Grant. I also believe a case can be made that
he’s the worst President, period.
In 2000, I was a McCain guy. I wasn’t sure about the Texas Governor. He had
name recognition and a lot of money behind him, but other than that? What?
Still, I was sick of all the Clinton shenanigans and the thought of President
Gore was… unthinkable. So, GWB became my guy.
For the first few months he was just flubbing along like most new Presidents,
no great shakes, but no disasters either. He cut taxes and I like tax cuts.
Then September 11th happened. September 11th changed everything for me, like
it did for so many of you. After September 11th, all the intramural idiocy of
American politics stopped being funny. We had been attacked by a vicious and
determined enemy and it was time for all of us to row in the same direction.
And we did for the blink of an eye. I believed the President when he said we
were going to hunt down Bin Laden and all those responsible for the 9-11
murders. I believed President Bush when he said we would go after the terrorists
and the nations that harbored them.
I supported the President when he sent our troops into Afghanistan, after
all, that’s where the Taliban was, that’s where al-Qaida trained the killers,
that’s where Bin Laden was.
And I cheered when we quickly toppled the Taliban government, but winced when
we let Bin Laden escape from Tora-Bora.
Then, the talk turned to Iraq and I winced again.
I thought the connection to 9-11 was sketchy at best. But Colin Powell
impressed me at the UN, and Tony Blair was in, and after all, he was a Clinton
guy, not a Bush guy, so I thought the case had to be strong. I was worried
though, because I had read the Wolfowitz paper, “The Project for the New
American Century.” It’s been around since ‘92, and it raised alarm bells because
it was based on a theory, “Democratizing the Middle East” and I prefer
pragmatism over theory. I was worried because Iraq was being justified on a
radical new basis, “pre-emptive war.” Any time we do something without
historical precedent I get nervous.
But the President shifted the argument to WMDs and the urgent threat of Iraq
getting atomic weapons. The debate turned to Saddam passing nukes on to terror
groups. After 9-11, the risk was too great. As the President said, “The next
smoking gun might be a mushroom cloud.” At least that’s what I thought at the
time.
I grew up in New York and watched them build the World Trade Center. I worked
with a guy, Frank O’Brien, who put the elevators in both towers. I lost a very
close friend on September 11th. 103 floor, tower one, Cantor Fitzgerald. Tim
Coughlin was his name. If we had to take out Iraq to make sure something like
that, or worse, never happened again, so be it. I knew the consequences. We have
a soldier in our house. None of this was theoretical in my house.
But in the months and years since shock and awe I have been shocked
repeatedly by a consistent litany of excuses, alibis, double-talk, inaccuracies,
bogus predictions, and flat out lies. I have watched as the President and his
administration changed the goals, redefined the reasons for going into Iraq, and
fumbled the good will of the world and the focus necessary to catch the real
killers of September 11th.
I have watched the President say the commanders on the ground will make the
battlefield decisions, and the war won’t be run from Washington. Yet, politics
has consistently determined what the troops can and can’t do on the ground and
any commander who did not go along with the administration was sacked, and in
some cases, maligned.
I watched and tried to justify the looting in Iraq after the fall of Saddam.
I watched and tried to justify the dismantling of the entire Iraqi army. I tired
to explain the complexities of building a functional new Iraqi army. I urged
patience when no WMDs were found. Then the Vice President told us we were in the
“waning days of the insurgency.” And I started wincing again. The President says
we have to stay the course but what if it’s the wrong course?
It was the wrong course. All of it was wrong. We are not on the road to
victory. We’re about to slink home with our tail between our legs, leaving civil
war in Iraq and a nuclear armed Iran in our wake. Bali was bombed. Madrid was
bombed. London was bombed. And Bin Laden is still making tapes. It’s
unspeakable. The liberal media didn’t create this reality, bad policy did.
Most historians believe it takes 30-50 years before we get a reasonably
accurate take on a President’s place in history. So, maybe 50 years from now
Iraq will be a peaceful member of the brotherhood of nations and George W. Bush
will be celebrated as a visionary genius.
But we don’t live fifty years in the future. We live now. We have to make
public policy decisions now. We have to live with the consequences of the votes
we cast and the leaders we chose now.
After five years of carefully watching George W. Bush I’ve reached the
conclusion he’s either grossly incompetent, or a hand puppet for a gaggle of
detached theorists with their own private view of how the world works. Or both.
Presidential failures. James Buchanan, Franklin Pierce, Jimmy Carter, Warren
Harding — the competition is fierce for the worst of the worst. Still, the
damage this President has done is enormous. It will take decades to undo, and
that’s assuming we do everything right from now on. His mistakes have global
implications, while the other failed Presidents mostly authored domestic
embarrassments.
And speaking of domestic embarrassments, let’s talk for a minute about
President Bush’s domestic record. Yes, he cut taxes. But tax cuts combined with
reckless spending and borrowing is criminal mismanagement of the public’s money.
We’re drunk at the mall with our great grandchildren’s credit cards. Whatever
happened to the party of fiscal responsibility?
Bush created a giant new entitlement, the prescription drug plan. He lied to
his own party to get it passed. He lied to the country about its true cost. It
was written by and for the pharmaceutical industry. It helps nobody except the
multinationals that lobbied for it. So much for smaller government. In fact,
virtually every tentacle of government has grown exponentially under Bush.
Unless, of course, it was an agency to look after the public interest, or
environmental protection, and/or worker’s rights.
I’ve talked so often about the border issue, I won’t bore you with a rehash.
It’s enough to say this President has been a catastrophe for the wages of
working people; he’s debased the work ethic itself. “Jobs Americans won’t do!”
He doesn’t believe in the sovereign borders of the country he’s sworn to protect
and defend. And his devotion to cheap labor for his corporate benefactors, along
with his worship of multinational trade deals, makes an utter mockery of
homeland security in a post 9-11 world. The President’s January 7th, 2004 speech
on immigration, his first trial balloon on his guest worker scheme, was a deal
breaker for me. I couldn’t and didn’t vote for him in 2004. And I’m glad I
didn’t.
Katrina, Harriet Myers, The Dubai Port Deal, skyrocketing gas prices,
shrinking wages for working people, staggering debt, astronomical foreign debt,
outsourcing, open borders, contempt for the opinion of the American people, the
war on science, media manipulation, faith based initives, a cavalier attitude
toward fundamental freedoms-- this President has run the most arrogant and
out-of-touch administration in my lifetime, perhaps, in any American’s lifetime.
You can make a case that Abraham Lincoln did what he had to do, the public be
damned. If you roll the dice on your gut and you’re right, history remembers you
well. But, when your gut led you from one business failure to another, when your
gut told you to trade Sammy Sosa to the Cubs, and you use the same gut to send
our sons and daughters to fight and die in a distraction from the real war on
terror, then history will and should be unapologetic in its condemnation.
None of this, by the way, should be interpreted as an endorsement of the
opposition party. The Democrats are equally bankrupt. This is the second crime
of our age. Again, historically speaking, its times like these when America
needs a vibrant opposition to check the power of a run-amuck majority party. It
requires it. It doesn’t work without one. Like the high and low tides keep the
oceans alive, a healthy, positive opposition offers a path back to the center
where all healthy societies live.
Tragically, the Democrats have allowed crackpots, leftists and demagogic
cowards to snipe from the sidelines while taking no responsibility for anything.
In fairness, I don’t believe a Democrat president would have gone into Iraq.
Unfortunately, I don’t know if President Gore would have gone into Afghanistan.
And that’s one of the many problems with the Democrats.
The two party system has always been clumsy and imperfect, but it has only
collapsed once, in the 1850s, and the result was civil war.
I believe, as I have said countless times, the two party system is on the
brink of a second collapsed. It’s currently running on spin, anger, revenge, and
pots and pots and pots of money.
We’re being governed by paper-mache patriots; brightly painted red, white and
blue, but hollow to the core. Both parties have mastered the cynical arts of
media manipulation and fund raising. They’ve learned the lessons of Watergate
and burn the tapes. They have learned to divide the nation for their own gain.
They have demonstrated the willingness to exploit any tragedy for personal
advantage. The contempt they have for the American people is without parallel.
This is painful to say, and I’m sure for many of you, painful to read. But
it’s impossible to heal the country until we’re willing to acknowledge the truth
no matter how painful. We have to wean ourselves off sugar coated partisan lies.
With a belated tip of the cap to Ralph Nader, the system is broken, so
broken, it’s almost inevitable it pukes up the Al Gores and George W. Bushes.
Where are the Trumans and the Eisenhowers? Where are the men and women of vision
and accomplishment? Why do we have to settle for recycled hacks and malleable
ciphers? Greatness is always rare, but is basic competence and simple honesty
too much to ask?
It may be decades before we have the full picture of how paranoid and
contemptuous this administration has been. And I am open to the possibility that
I’m all wet about everything I’ve just said. But I’m putting it out there,
because I have to call it as I see it, and this is how I see it today. I don’t
say any of this lightly. I’ve thought about this for months and months. But
eventually, the weight of evidence takes on a gravitational force of its own.
I believe that George W. Bush has taken us down a terrible road. I don’t
believe the Democrats are offering an alternative. That means we’re on our own
to save this magnificent country. The United States of America is a gift to the
world, but it has been badly abused and it’s rightful owners, We the People, had
better step up to the plate and reclaim it before the damage becomes
irreparable.
So, accept my apology for allowing partisanship to blind me to an obvious
truth; our President is incapable of the tasks he is charged with. I almost feel
sorry for him. He is clearly in over his head. Yet, he doesn’t generate the
sympathy Warren Harding earned. Harding, a spectacular mediocrity, had the
self-knowledge to tell any and all he shouldn’t be President. George W. Bush
continues to act the part, but at this point whose buying the act?
Does this make me a waffler? A flip-flopper? Maybe, although I prefer to call
it realism. And, for those of you who never supported Bush, its also fair to
accuse me of kicking Bush while he’s down. After all, you were kicking him while
he was up.
You were right, I was wrong.
DEMONcrats
 "Demoncrats"???
-ReFundican Sen. Bill Frist,
Nov 1, 2005
Sound familiar to all you Atheists out there? It should.
You hear these lies and slander all the time from good and holy
Christians, who have decided that lying and slandering are no longer
sins like Paul said. Yes, the usual smears and
LIES that Fundy Christians used to reserve only for us
Atheists are now being re-tooled for use against half of the entire
county- the Democrats. Yes, now for anyone to have
morals and goodness and convictions and principles you must first of
all be a
ReFundican!!! ReFundicans are now the ONLY good people left in the
world. If you're NOT a ReFundican, then you're an Attila the
Hun "without convictions" and "without principles" burning and raping as you rampage down the boulevard.
Hypocritical Republican Fundy Senator Frist bemoans the fact that
Democrats "have no convictions", unlike his own party and himself,
which, with the indictments and charges handed down, will soon have
lots of convictions! Enjoy jail, Mr. Frist!!!
Thought Question: If Christians were really defending the
truth, would the truth use lies and deceptions to defend itself
with???
Garbage In, Garbage Out
Pres. Bush is accusing the Demoncrats with a, "They wanted the
war too!!!" whine. What he's failing to mention is that the
reasons congress wanted the war had all been supplied
by Bush & Co, and were all deliberate lies at worse, or "cherry
picked", that is, taken out of context, at best. In other words,
garbage. And Bush knew they were garbage, but fed it to congress
anyway. So don't blame congress. All they knew was what Bush
told them, and if they are guilty, they're only guilty of
trusting Pres. Bush. Like I said, Garbage In, Garbage Out.

Drive Out
The Bush Regime

Your government, on the basis of outrageous lies, is waging
a murderous and utterly illegitimate war in Iraq, with other countries in their
sights.
Your government is openly torturing people, and justifying
it.
Your government puts people in jail on the merest suspicion,
refusing them lawyers, and either holding them indefinitely or deporting them in
the dead of night.
Your government is moving each day closer to a theocracy,
where a narrow and hateful brand of Christian fundamentalism will rule.
Your government suppresses the science that doesn't fit its
religious, political and economic agenda, forcing present and future generations
to pay a terrible price.
Your government is moving to deny women here, and all over
the world, the right to birth control and abortion.
Your government enforces a culture of greed, bigotry,
intolerance and ignorance.
People look at all this and think of Hitler — and they are right to do so.
The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very quickly, in a
fascist way, and for generations to come. We must act now; the future is in the
balance.

Endless "Whack The
Gopher" Arcade Game
There are NOT enough American troops to hold the territory they
fight and die for. They invade a city, chase the Islamic Party
Poopers out of the city, then leave the city after a week or so,
and the bad guys move right back in. From the L.A. Times
(10/5/05 p. A3) "The offensive... brought Marines BACK to
Haditha... two months AFTER driving insurgents out of the area.
US forces suffered heavy looses in that early August assault: 14
Marines died when an armored vehicle hit a landmine. DAYS AFTER
American forces left, however, militants were BACK IN CONTROL,
dominating a region of 100,000 people with no... police force."
So tell me, Bushies, just WHAT THE FUCK did those 14 Marines die
for back in August, when you GAVE THE CITY BACK to the bad guys
just to be RE-taken by us in October??? Are you going to tell
their grieving families that, "yes, your only son died so that
Haditha could be free of terrorists... for a whole 3 days."
Those 14 Marines THREW THEIR LIVES AWAY FOR N-O-T-H-I-N-G.
Nothing. A total and complete WASTE OF HUMAN LIFE, thanks
to George Bush's lack of planning and stubborness.

Do The Math:
We'll Be There Forever
On "Meet The Press" today (Oct 2, 2005) it was mentioned that
the Iraqi battalions that are able to stand on their own-
without U.S. forces- has decreased from three in July to
just one now. And as it will take about 140 of these
battalions of Iraqis to replace the U.S. forces there, and as
its taken (so far) two and one half YEARS just to end up with
ONE (which may or may not "disappear"), doing the math... that
means that America will have thousands of soldiers dying each
year in Iraq for another 347
years, up into the year 2352 AD. But
Bush calls for "patience". Patience, my ass!
-
Going Backwards =
"Moving Forward!" Also
mentioned on Meet The Press (Oct 2, 2005), but with no apparent
outrage, is just WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO 2/3rds OF
THE IRAQI BATTALIONS SINCE THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER??? This is what
Bush called "progress" in his national radio address yesterday-
progress to him is 2/3rds of Iraqi battalions
"disappearing" into thin air, and this moving BACKWARDS
Bush calls "moving forward"!!! Is Bush at ALL in
touch with reality, or has drinking got him living in la la
land????
-
500 Attacks EVERY DAY
Meet The Press, (Oct 2,
2005), also mentioned the number of daily attacks by the Muslim
party poopers is averaging FIVE HUNDRED- that's right,
500, each and
every day. Compare this number to the two
or three a day acknowledged on FOX or CBS etc news. Yeah,
George, that's REAL progress- IF you're an insurgent!
-
Honor The Dead With
Even More Dead? Bush
says the reason he can't pull out of Iraq is "to honor the
soldiers who have already died". Let me translate that into
plain English, so all can see the absurdity of it: he want
to "honor the soldiers who have already died" with even more
dead soldiers, as the only way to properly honor a mistake of this magnitude...
is by increasing the magnitude of the mistake! As there
will never come a time when he WON'T want to "honor the soldiers
who have already died" there will therefore also never come a
time when he can pull the troops out. Therefore, to the already
huge stack of dead rotting American corpses he intends to keep
adding even more dead rotting American corpses, world without
end.
-
How Many Dead So Far?
Imagine a typical bedroom 10' x
10' with an 8' ceiling. Now imagine it jam packed with dead
stinking rotting American corpses sent home from Iraq, crammed
in from floor to ceiling. It can hold about 90 bodies. Now
imagine 21 of these bedrooms stacked up vertically- to the
height of a 21 story building. That's how many he's gotten
killed so far, as of Sept 2005. And he wants it even higher, to
"honor those who have already died". This from the man who broke
the record for death row inmates executed while he was governor
of Texas. Pro-life my ass!
-
Just Like Our War With
Japan? San Diego, CA}
In a speech Tuesday,
August 30, 2005, Presidunce Bush, according to news sources,
"sought to cast the conflict [in Iraq] as the modern day
equivalent of America's World War Two struggle against Japan,
which ended 60 years ago this month." What Presidunce Bush
conveniently left out were THE two glaring giant humongous
differences, the differences that makes ALL the difference:
JAPAN ATTACKED US, IRAQ DID NOT.
And that Japan was the aggressor then, WE are the aggressor
NOW. And therefore, whatever moral guilt Japan is
painted with for STARTING that war, we are ourselves JUST AS
GUILTY NOW. (NOTE: While Bush was giving this speech to his rich
friends to drum up $$$ for the Republican party, thousands of
poor blacks were drowning in New Orleans for lack of being
rescued.)
-
Dying for WHAT Country?
American soldiers in Iraq aren't "dying for their
country" or "defending America"; they're dying
for Iraq,
and who,
deep down inside, really gives a shit about
Iraq- enough to die or get maimed for it, except maybe the people stuck living there, and alot of them
don't seem too crazy about it either. Do YOU, my reader, give enough of a shit about, say, Outer Slobovia,
enough to go DIE or get MAIMED FOR LIFE trying to improve it? Is
THEIR happiness worth YOUR misery? How about Timbuktu? Would you sacrifice your
son's life if it improved Baghdad's sewer system? Is THIS the new American foreign policy, to sacrifice
endless quantities of American troops in every fucked up place in the world
trying to unfuck them until we go broke and/or bleed ourselves
to death? Is a fucking SEWER SYSTEM the "noble cause" Bush
keeps saying our troops are dying for?
-
"Embolden the
Terrorists" What a
STUPID dittohead "talking point". How is announcing
a time schedule supposed to "Embolden the terrorists"??? They're
already "embolden enough" to blow themselves up to kingdom come. Maybe
Bush would like to explain just what the hell can possibly be
more bold than
that? You really want to "embolden the
terrorists"??? How about having the President of the United
States swagger up to the microphone and challenge all the
terrorists of the world to "Bring it on!!!" How's THAT for
"emboldening the terrorists"? As for setting a date,
IF John Doe Terrorist knew that America was going to withdraw,
say, tomorrow, do you think he'd blow himself up TODAY to make
America withdraw? If anything, setting a date would cause LESS
terrorism, NOT more.
-
"Aiding &
Helping the
Terrorists" Another
stupid dittohead slogan. Let me show you why it's soooo damn
stupid} The terrorists have moved TO Iraq
BECAUSE President Chickenhawk INVITED THEM THERE, and
not because of Cindy Sheehan or any anti-war movement!!! It was
Bush, not Cindy, who issued the insane "Bring it on!!!"
challenge to terrorists worldwide. Well, they HAVE "brought it
on", just like our idiot President wanted. Now once all
these terrorists get to Iraq (because, after all, they were
INVITED there, remember?) they then STAY IN IRAQ because it
gives them opportunity to practice target shooting, with your
sons and daughters being the sitting ducks. Therefore, if and
when the Americans LEAVE Iraq, the terrorists will ALSO leave
Iraq, as they'll no longer have a reason to BE in Iraq, the same
as if you removed all the deer from a forest, the deer hunters
will also leave. Therefore all you pro-war people, you want to
"aid and help the terrorists"??? Keep the troops in.

As Moral as Hitler What is the big moral difference between Bush
taking over Iraq based on a bunch of lies, and Hitler taking
over Poland based on a bunch of lies?

Cindy Sheehan
Secret Memo from Karl Rove to all Republican Lapdogs}
"Attack Cindy Sheehan! Kill the
messenger! Attack the messenger! Attack! Attack! Attack! Drown
out what she's trying to say and just attack her personally.
Make fun of her, mock her, insult her, SWIFT BOAT HER ASS!!! Do
whatever you WANT with her, even run over her crosses, scream at
her or shoot her- just for God's sake don't LISTEN to her or try
to answer her questions. Remember, she is ANTI-War and a
peacemaker and it's a lie that Jesus ever said "Blessed are the
peacemakers". We Republicans are PRO-War, PRO-Jesus, Go Jesus,
Rah! In Jesus' blessed name, Karl" Don't be
fooled- Rove is the one hiding backstage pulling the strings of
Limbaugh, Hannity, and all the rest of the right-wing puppets,
to "swift boat" Cindy with a smear campaign via all
these ad hominem attacks. Ad hominem attacks "are a
fallacy in which a claim is rejected on the basis of some
irrelevant fact about the the person presenting the claim."
This means, all the personal attacks they are making against her
carry as much intellectual
weight as "Of course Cindy is wrong! After all, she's got blond
hair!" After all the Christian slandering and gossip is
done, this fact remains steadfast and unmoved: Cindy's son DIED FOR A LIE,
a lie that originated from the good Christian LIAR George W.
Bush, and she just wants
that good Christian to grow enough BALLS to fess up to it! What's so fucking out of line about THAT???
Bush has the "swagger", now let the spoiled rich kid
grow the
BALLS to match that fake ass swagger and for the first time
since he was elected President face something other than a
hand-picked censored "We love you George!" kiss-ass
Fundy Christian audience.
Can "macho" George face-off with an angry mom? I doubt it.
George has always been a pussy, from skipping out on finishing
his National Guard duty, to having a total melt-down during the
debates with Kerry, and to only appearing before audiences who
have to sign a fucking LOYALTY OATH just to get in the door.
Pussy. Big time pussy. Bush is to macho as Henry Winkler is to
Fonzy on Happy Days.

"Stay the Course" Over 50,000 American lives were totally wasted
in Vietnam "staying the course" before we finally got the hell
out. Now, how many American lives will be flushed down the Iraqi
toilet by recycling that same stupid 1960's "stay the course"
slogan? Vietnam went
communist, and Iraq is already falling apart in bloody civil war,
so what lasting good will our having "stayed the course"
in either hell-hole have done? Let me repeat myself: 50,000
Americans paid the ultimate price in Vietnam because of a
mule-headed stubborn-ass president. What good lasting thing was
bought with all those lives spent? NOTHING. Vietnam is today the
same as if we had never gone in, except that 50,000 Americans
came home in body bags. Likewise in Iraq, all that's going to happen is to
have gotten a whole lot of Americans killed and fucked up for
life for no
good reason and the country will end up as it was before we got
there: fucked up, and probably worse so. Thank you George, you
fucking moron. Only a stubborn fool would "stay the
course" when said "course" is taking him straight into a brick
wall at 100 mph.

"Stay, uhhh, the course! And, uhhh, icknore that wall
uphead! Jezzus talks 2 me so me perfek- no musteaks-
ebber!" Read all about the melt down at 1600 Pennsylvania

Bush's Crappy
Crusade in Iraq

2,314 PLUS
Blown-Apart Blood & Guts
scrapped off the ground & funneled into a body bag
Reasons that
Bush Must Go
President Chickenhawk continues the pissing away
of our military with his
crappy crusade in Iraq.
How many
is enough? How many dead Americans is Iraq worth? As Jesus said, the
WISE man counts the cost before he sets off to build a
house. What's the COST in American lives to enable Iraq to limp along a few
months more before disintegrating in a massive civil war? 10,000?
100,000? 1,000,000? 250 million? Every man, woman and child in
America? What's the COST, Fundies- how much- what's your limit in
human blood Fundies, or don't you have a limit? Give me a NUMBER for
how many
American lives Iraqi "democracy" is worth? George has
always had a problem with knowing when to say when, but it's sober common sense.
When do we say when- what's the number?
What number are you comfortable with? One was
too much for me. --Cindy Sheehan

Terror Alert Prediction
(Wednesday, Oct 26, 2005 @ 7:30 PST) As I write this,
the Indictments in the CIA leak/treason investigation case have yet
to be released. They are expected shortly. But based upon past
behavior of the rich spoiled brat occupying the White House, this is what
I predict will follow the release:
-
Terror Alert:
Within days a much publicized "Terror Alert" will be
issued. Of course, there will be no REAL terror threat. This
will merely be partisan politics using the whole alert system to
distract people from bad news about Bush. In debate circles it's
called a "red herring".
-
The Prosecutor:
Within a week, stories will surface attempting to make the
prosecutor look like Satan himself. He wet his bed till he was
eight; he played hooky in 9th grade, whatever. It will be Karl
Adolf Rove attacking- attacking & destroying being the only
strategy he seems to know.
Will I be right, or will I be wrong? We shall see...
UPDATE: The indictments came out Friday. The countdown begins...
BZZZT!!! Right on the money... A new
TERROR ALERT came out Tuesday, Nov. 1st, but was
mostly IGNORED by the media because the lying sacks of shit (all
good Christians, by the way) running ruining this
government have too often cried "The sky is falling!!!" for anybody
to take these bullshit "Terror Alerts" serious anymore.
Set Free... of George Bush
"Ye shall know the truth,
and the truth shall set you free"
John 8:32
Truth:
Bush & Co. lied us into a frivolous war
"What the White House has to fear is a trial...
where all the secrets of
what was done to stampede us into war come spilling
out. This case...
could also become about whether we were
lied into a war General Odom calls the
'greatest strategic
disaster
in the history
of the United States.'"
*Pat Buchanan 10/20/05
Truth:
Bush & Co. attack Americans for telling the truth about their
frivolous war
"When Joe Wilson told the truth, the Administration's
reaction was to attack him,
attack his wife, and attack Iraq. That's
the real crime here, whether (or not)
Rove, Libby, or anyone else is indicted."
*Bob Shrum, 10/17/05
Truth:
Starting frivolous wars is a crime against humanity
Former dictator Saddam Hussein is currently on trial for his life,
in a Baghdad courtroom. He is on trial for horrendous crimes. One of
those crimes he is accused of, and may pay with his life for, is
EXACTLY the same thing George W. Bush did: starting
frivolous wars for no good reason in which hundreds and hundreds of
his own soldiers have died. What I want to know is this: if it is a
crime- a horrific crime- a crime beyond the pale- for Saddam Hussein
to have done this, why is not similarly a crime for the drunk from
Texas? What hypocritical double standard has Saddam on trial for his
life while our own version of Saddam struts around free???
"The chief prosecutor, Jaafar Mousawi... gave an
overview of... Hussein's horrific crimes.
Two million Iraqis,
he said, were killed in
unreasonable wars
against Iran and Kuwait" ** |
 |
 |
Hussein
4Unreasonable War
4Two Million Killed |
Bush
4Unreasonable War
4Two Thousand Killed |
| Other than the
numbers, what's the damn difference???
Truth:
Starting frivolous wars is a crime
WHY ISN'T BUSH IN JAIL
AWAITING HIS
OWN TRIAL???
"Americans are tired of investigations
and scandal, and the best way to get rid of
them is to elect a new president who will
bring a new administration, who will restore
honor and dignity to the White House."

of Proof," 9/15/00]

Expect a
Stupid President to do Stupid Things
Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, who was Colin Powell's right-hand man
for 16 years, and the former director of the U.S. Marine Corp War College at
Quantico, had these comments at a policy forum at The New America Foundation on
10/19/05}
Cheney & Bush Are In It For The Money:
The "Cheney-Rumsfeld cabal" is influenced by the business world and that
Cheney was a member of the "military industrial complex." "How much
influence on their decisions? I think a lot -- in how much the decisions reflect
their connections with the cartels and the corporations and so forth, I think a
lot. I think the president, too....Don Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney, from the
business world – how much influence on their decisions? I think a lot – in how
much the decisions reflect their connections with the cartels and the
corporations and so forth, I think a lot. I think the president, too. You bring
this sort of idea that the bottom line is everything.
Bush is Ignorant & Apathetic of Foreign Affairs:
"You've got a president who is not versed in international relations and
not too much interested in them either."
Disaster in Iraq / Idiots Running the Government
And I would say that we have courted disaster in Iraq, in North Korea, in
Iran. Generally with regard to domestic crises like Katrina, Rita –
and I could go on back – we haven’t done very well on anything like that in a
long time. And if something comes along that is truly serious, truly serious,
something like a nuclear weapon going off in a major American city, or something
like a major pandemic, you are going to see the ineptitude
of this government in a way that will take you back to the Declaration of
Independence. Read it sometimes again. I just use it for a tutoring class for my
students down in the District of Columbia. It forced me to read it really
closely because we’re doing metaphors and similes and antonyms and synonyms and
so forth, and read in there what the founders say in a very different language
than we use today. Read in there what they say about the necessity of the people
to throw off tyranny or to throw off ineptitude or to throw off that which is
not doing what the people want it to do. And you’re talking about the potential
for, I think, real dangerous times if we don’t get our act together.
Stupid People Put In Charge
Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith, whom most of you probably know
Tommy Franks said was the stupidest
blankety, blank man in the world. He was. (Laughter.) Let me testify to
that. He was. Seldom in my life have I met a dumber man.
(Laughter.) And yet – and yet – and yet, after the secretary of State agrees to
a $40 billion department rather than a $30 billion department having control, at
least in the immediate post-war period in Iraq, this man is put in charge.
Not only is he put in charge, he is given carte blanche to tell the State
Department to go screw itself in a closet somewhere.
Bush is Destroying The U.S. Army
We may have to do that anyway because my army right now is truly in bad shape
– truly in bad shape. And I’m not talking about the billions and billions
of dollars of equipment it’s burning up in Iraq at a rate 10 or 15 times the
rate its life cycle said it should be burned up at, but I’m also talking
about when you have officers who have to hedge the truth, NCOs who have
to hedge the truth. They start voting with their feet, as they did in
Vietnam, my war. They come home and they tell their wife they’ve got to go back
for the third tour and the fourth tour and
the wife says, uh-uh, or the husband says, uh-uh,
and all of a sudden your military begins to
unravel. And the signs are very
concrete right now that the Army and the Marine Corps – to a lesser extent the
other services because they’re not quite as involved in the deployments that
we’re talking about here and the frequency thereof, the op tempo as we say it –
problems are brewing. Problems are brewing.
Bush is Basically Brainless
Kim Campbell, the former prime minister (of Canada), at the panel we had, she
said, we’re not anti-American, we’re scared; we’re scared to death the giant
has no head. You’re in the world and you have no head.
Bush is an Undiplomatic Brute & Bully
I like to use the world gracelessness, and I use that word because grace is
something we have lost in the modern world. It’s a very important product. It’s
very different, for example, to walk in with a foreign leader and find something
you can be magnanimous about. You don’t have to win everything. You don’t
have to be the big bully on the block. Find something you can be magnanimous
about, that you can give him, that you can say he gets credit for, or she gets
credit for. That’s diplomacy. That’s diplomacy. You don’t walk in and say,
I’m the big mother on the block and if everybody’s not with me, they’re against
me, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. The difference between father and son,
in my mind, sort of comes from that attitudinal approach to the world.
Bush Has Destroyed 50 Years of Diplomacy
So if you’re unilaterally declaring Kyoto dead, if you’re declaring
the Geneva Convention is not operative, if you’re doing a host of things
that the world doesn’t agree with you on and you’re doing them blatantly
and in their face – as I said before, without grace – then you’ve got to
pay the consequences, and the consequences are your public diplomacy people have
a really tough job. And is Karen Hughes going to turn it around? I pray for her
every night.

A Letter to All Who Voted for George W. Bush
Michael Moore, Sunday, September 11th,
2005
To All My Fellow Americans Who Voted for George W. Bush:
On this, the fourth anniversary of 9/11, I'm just curious, how does it feel?
How does it feel to know that the man you elected to lead us after we were
attacked went ahead and put a guy in charge of FEMA whose main qualification was
that he ran horse shows?
That's right. Horse shows.
I really want to know -- and I ask you this in all sincerity and with all due
respect -- how do you feel about the utter contempt Mr. Bush has shown for your
safety? C'mon, give me just a moment of honesty. Don't start ranting on about
how this disaster in New Orleans was the fault of one of the poorest cities in
America. Put aside your hatred of Democrats and liberals and anyone with the
last name of Clinton. Just look me in the eye and tell me our President did the
right thing after 9/11 by naming a horse show runner as the top man to protect
us in case of an emergency or catastrophe.
I want you to put aside your self-affixed label of
Republican/conservative/born-again/capitalist/ditto-head/right-winger and just
talk to me as an American, on the common ground we both call America.
Are we safer now than before 9/11? When you learn that behind the horse show
runner, the #2 and #3 men in charge of emergency preparedness have zero
experience in emergency preparedness, do you think we are safer?
When you look at Michael Chertoff, the head of Homeland Security, a man with
little experience in national security, do you feel secure?
When men who never served in the military and have never seen young men die in
battle send our young people off to war, do you think they know how to conduct a
war? Do they know what it means to have your legs blown off for a threat that
was never there?
Do you really believe that turning over important government services to private
corporations has resulted in better services for the people?
Why do you hate our federal government so much? You have voted for politicians
for the past 25 years whose main goal has been to de-fund the federal
government. Do you think that cutting federal programs like FEMA and the Army
Corps of Engineers has been good or bad for America? GOOD OR BAD?
With the nation's debt at an all-time high, do you think tax cuts for the rich
are still a good idea? Will you give yours back so hundreds of thousands of
homeless in New Orleans can have a home?
Do you believe in Jesus? Really? Didn't he say that we would be judged by how we
treat the least among us? Hurricane Katrina came in and blew off the facade that
we were a nation with liberty and justice for all. The wind howled and the water
rose and what was revealed was that the poor in America shall be left to suffer
and die while the President of the United States fiddles and tells them to eat
cake.
That's not a joke. The day the hurricane hit and the levees broke, Mr. Bush,
John McCain and their rich pals were stuffing themselves with cake. A full day
after the levees broke (the same levees whose repair funding he had cut), Mr.
Bush was playing a guitar some country singer gave him. All this while New
Orleans sank under water.
It would take ANOTHER day before the President would do a flyover in his jumbo
jet, peeking out the window at the misery 2500 feet below him as he flew back to
his second home in DC. It would then be TWO MORE DAYS before a trickle of
federal aid and troops would arrive. This was no seven minutes in a sitting
trance while children read "My Pet Goat" to him. This was FOUR DAYS of doing
nothing other than saying "Brownie (FEMA director Michael Brown), you're doing a
heck of a job!"
My Republican friends, does it bother you that we are the laughing stock of the
world?
And on this sacred day of remembrance, do you think we honor or shame those who
died on 9/11/01? If we learned nothing and find ourselves today every bit as
vulnerable and unprepared as we were on that bright sunny morning, then did the
3,000 die in vain?
Our vulnerability is not just about dealing with terrorists or natural
disasters. We are vulnerable and unsafe because we allow one in eight Americans
to live in horrible poverty. We accept an education system where one in six
children never graduate and most of those who do can't string a coherent
sentence together. The middle class can't pay the mortgage or the hospital bills
and 45 million have no health coverage whatsoever.
Are we safe? Do you really feel safe? You can only move so far out and build so
many gated communities before the fruit of what you've sown will be crashing
through your walls and demanding retribution. Do you really want to wait until
that happens? Or is it your hope that if they are left alone long enough to soil
themselves and shoot themselves and drown in the filth that fills the street
that maybe the problem will somehow go away?
I know you know better. You gave the country and the world a man who wasn't up
for the job and all he does is hire people who aren't up for the job. You did
this to us, to the world, to the people of New Orleans. Please fix it. Bush is
yours. And you know, for our peace and safety and security, this has to be
fixed. What do you propose?
I have an idea, and it isn't a horse show.
Yours,
Michael Moore

The Ever-Changing Storyline of WHY We Invaded Iraq
"Why doesn't someone ask Bush why the
story line
for why we invaded Iraq has changed so many times?"
-
To take over the oil fields so the Terrorists couldn't. (2)
-
To put "Freedom on the march!" Iraq's democracy will
shine like a beacon of hope in the Middle East and thus inspire Muslims
elsewhere in the region to do likewise.
-
To allow the provisional constitution to be completed.
-
To allow Iraq the joy of having an American election.
-
To save the world from Iraqi nuclear warheads on missiles.
(And who can forget THIS classic fear-mongering line? "We
don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud")
-
To save the world from Iraqi biological attacks.
-
To fight terrorists "over there" so we don't have to fight
them elsewhere, like say, in London subways.
-
To save us from all those weapons of mass destruction.
-
To attack all those hundreds of al Qaeda bases and
terrorists camps in Iraq.
-
To save Israel from all those hundreds of SCUD missles
hiding in Western Iraq.
-
Because it would be such a "cake-walk" and the Iraqi's would
welcome us with open arms.
-
Because of George Bush's deep respect for the United
Nations, he just couldn't stand it anymore to see Saddam ignoring U.N.
Resolution 1441
-
To save the Iraqi people from that awful despot.
-
To punish Iraq for flying those planes into the World Trade
Center on September 11, 2001 (1)
1) President Bush said:
"the battle of Iraq is one
victory in a war on terror that began on September the 11th, 2001. With those
attacks, the terrorists and their supporters declared war on the United States.
And war is what they got."

Iraqiization of the War a Total Failure

Iraqi forces may need years of preparation
By Tom Lasseter / Knight Ridder Newspapers
HIT, Iraq - (KRT) - American Sgt. LaDaunte Strickland, sweat pouring down his
face, stared at the four Iraqi soldiers sitting in the shade of a truck.
They were supposed to be helping Strickland and a group of U.S. Marines man a
vehicle-control point, a basic operation in which troops hope to catch
insurgents at traffic stops they set up quickly on the roadsides.
"Come on. Come on! Get up," said Strickland, 30, of Cleveland, stabbing a cigar
in the air to make his point. "Damn, will you PLEASE get up!"
The Iraqis didn't stir. Without an interpreter - a common occurrence - the
Iraqis didn't understand Strickland, no matter how loud he got.
Three weeks of patrols and interviews in restive Anbar province suggested that
Iraqi security forces will need years of preparation before they're ready to
take charge of the complex and violent tribal areas of western Iraq. President
Bush has said repeatedly that U.S. troops will withdraw only when Iraqi troops
are ready to take over.
Many of the Iraqi troops were in poor condition, unable or unwilling to complete
long foot patrols without frequent breaks. They often didn't know what to do in
complicated situations, standing back and letting American Marines and soldiers
take the lead.
Most of the Iraqi troops interviewed were Shiite Muslims - the majority
religious group in Iraq - who were long oppressed by Sunni Muslims, Anbar's
predominant ethnic group but a minority across Iraq. That history creates
obstacles to establishing trust with the locals.
In Fallujah, after a U.S. assault last November routed the insurgency that had
demolished the town's police force, the Interior Ministry sent in its Public
Order Battalion. Residents accuse the battalion of being a de facto Shiite
militia.
Marine Maj. Shaun Fitzpatrick, 36, of San Antonio said the Marines were aware of
the sectarian problems and were hoping to put a predominantly Sunni police force
on the streets in coming months. Until then, he said of the public-order troops,
"Basically, they're Shiite and they're from Baghdad or Basra (a Shiite town).
We've had problems. There are inevitable cultural clashes."
In the meantime, insurgents are attacking new police stations and intimidating
contractors.
The Iraqi National Guard, heralded last year as the answer to security in the
area, has been disbanded because morale was low and insurgents had infiltrated
it. The old national guard trucks, with their blue emblems, now sit rusting. As
with the Iraqi Civil Defense Corps, the predecessor to the national guard,
American officials say the new Iraqi army and police will establish security in
places such as Anbar.
However, the police force has collapsed in Ramadi, the provincial capital. Two
divisions of Iraqi soldiers - a total of 12,000 men - are to establish security,
but so far only 2,000 are available, and half of them lack basic training.
Hit, a city of 130,000, has no police force. North of Hit, in Haditha - near the
site of attacks that killed 20 Marines this month - the police chief handed over
all the patrol cars to the Marines in January.
"He said, "We can't protect these anymore,'" said Maj. Plauche St. Romain, the
head intelligence officer for the Marine battalion that oversees Haditha,
Haqlaniya and Hit. "He turned in the uniforms and (armor) vests, too."
That police chief was assassinated in April.
"It was pretty obvious what happened with the police. Their police stations got
blown up and a lot of them were murdered," said Army Maj. William Fall, 48, of
Cresson, Pa., who oversees Iraqi security-force operations in Ramadi.
Marine Capt. John LaJeunesse, who works with the police in Ramadi, said it
wasn't fair to put too much blame on the police. Those who've remained to get
trained and be part of the new force haven't been paid in two and a half months,
he said.
So far, a little more than 5,900 police officers have been screened for all of
Anbar, about half the number needed. Most of those still must be trained, said
LaJeunesse, 30, of Boise, Idaho.
"The ones that stay are working without pay, and the insurgents are threatening
their families," he said.
During a recent operation in Haqlaniya, a squad from the Iraqi Intervention
Force, one of the more seasoned units in Iraq's army, swept through
neighborhoods looking for insurgents. One of the soldiers was so overweight that
he had trouble putting on his flak vest.
During a raid on a suspected insurgent hideout, the Iraqis discovered they'd
forgotten their bolt cutters. Instead of sending someone back to get them, they
tried breaking a lock off an outside gate with the butts of their AK-47s. By the
time they were through, they'd made so much noise that everyone in the
neighborhood was aware of their presence on what was supposed to be a stealth
operation.
When they arrived at their second objective, still without bolt cutters, the men
wanted to use grenades to breach the door.
Their supervisor, U.S. Army Capt. Terrence Sommers, stepped in and said they'd
risk hurting themselves and would give away their position to insurgents.
"They've still got a ways to go," said Sommers, 34, of Trenton, N.J.
One of the Iraqi officers, Maj. Ahmed, said his men were less than motivated
because they didn't understand why the Americans kept sweeping through towns and
moving on without leaving troops behind to secure them.
"The people are scared to give us information about the terrorists because there
are many terrorists here. And when we leave, the terrorists will come back and
kill them," said Ahmed, who gave only his first name out of fear of retribution
from the insurgents. "The army has to stay in these cities; that way we would
have control. But this way, no, it doesn't make any sense."
On a nighttime raid in Ramadi this month, U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Chris Chapin,
a military adviser to the Iraqi army, said he hadn't been able to get the Iraqi
troops to mount a platoon-sized operation. Chapin had no interpreter with him,
and none of the Iraqis could speak English.
"We definitely need to do something about this interpreter thing," said Sgt. 1st
Class Anthony James, 33, of Vicksburg, Miss. "I don't see things changing here.
We're not reaching the people."
Because the Iraqis and Americans couldn't communicate with one another, they
frequently ended up wandering in the middle of the street, yelling commands in
English and Arabic and heading in opposite directions.
Chapin, 39, of Proctor, Vt., walked around at one point, yelling, "Lieutenant,
where is my lieutenant?" Two of the target houses were within a block of each
other, and the entire neighborhood was probably aware of the soldiers' presence,
blowing any chance of making a quiet entrance.
"They're always getting bunched into a gaggle, especially at night. I think it's
because they're scared," said Sgt. Adam Detato, 24, of Montoursville, Pa.
"Between the language barrier and a lot of them having a fifth-grade education,
it's hard to teach them our tactics."
In Hit, Strickland finally managed to get three of the Iraqi soldiers to help
him with the checkpoint. The fourth remained in the shade, making hand gestures
indicating that he needed a light for his cigarette. Within five minutes the
other three were making frequent motions toward the sun and then in the
direction of the base. "Finish?" they asked. "We finish?"
A Marine standing nearby suggested to Stickland that maybe the answer was to
train Iraqis as traffic police, give them orange vests and have them do traffic
stops on their own.
Strickland laughed. "Yeah, until the muj finds out the Americans gave them the
vests; then they'll kill `em," he said, referring to the insurgents by the
Arabic word for "holy warrior," mujahedeen. "When they have problems, these guys
will just leave their uniforms and walk off."

Republicans and Lynching- Hand in Hand
Senator Lamar Alexander (Republican-TN)
Senator Thad Cochran (Republican-MS)
Senator John Cornyn (Republican-TX)
Senator Michael Enzi (Republican-WY)
Senator Chuck Grassley (Republican-IA)
Senator Judd Gregg (Republican-NH)
Senator Orrin Hatch (Republican-UT)
**Senator Trent Lott (Republican-MS)
Senator John Sununu (Republican-NH)
Senator
Craig
Thomas (Republican-WY)
Above is a list of the good Christian white Senators who declined a
chance on June 13, 2005 to publicly
apologize
to the world for the 4,742+ blacks and others lynched by fellow good
Christian whites in this country. Up until 1960 over 200
anti-lynching bills were introduced into congress, only to be shot
down by- you guessed it- good Christian whites in Congress.
Regarding the list of Senators above, connect these dots: each and
every one is WHITE and REPUBLICAN and a
*FUNDY CHRISTIAN. If you are a black
African-American, never forget this: regardless of their hype to the
contrary, ***Christianity and the Republican Party are NOT
now and never WERE your friends.
*All listed as 100% ok by the rabidly Fundy group Christian
Coalition. **Sen. Trent Lott got caught singing the
praises of white supremacy groups in 1998. ***The Bible is
quite vocal in its support of slavery. |

Bush- That Sinking Feeling

(by Mark Smith)
Mr. Bush's policies have had two years to back up his boast of being
a great "war president", but instead Iraq is worse than ever. Now
he's asking for these same failed policies to be continued
indefinitely, maybe even 12 or more years (Rumsfeld, 6/26/05). This
means a preschooler when Bush started his stupid crusade might die
in it when he turns 18- shades of Vietnam. All this leaves me with a
sinking feeling and a few questions. For example, if the best
fighting force in the world, the U.S. army, led by "God's chosen
man" himself, has proven incapable of solving the problem, how will
handing off the problem to an untested Iraqi army get any better
results? And since when is handing off a problem, rather than
solving it, the best choice? Seems more like an immature evasion of
responsibility- we screwed up their country, we could at least give
it back to them in the same or better condition we found it. And if
the Iraqi's will solve it due to (eventually) having double the
American troop strength, will that be proof that Bush knowingly
fielded only enough troops to bleed and die, but never enough to get
the job done right? And if a Muslim leader ends up solving what
stumped our Christian president, should George trade in Jesus for
Mohammad? |

Save America from Saddam!!!
(by Mark Smith) Picture this: a recruiter runs up to a jock graduating High School , "Hey,
would you be willing to lose a leg to save America from Saddam's
nukes?" The jock says "I'm not sure man. I love America,
but I also love having both legs." The recruiter then says "I'll let you wear
this cool uniform!!" To which the jock replies "Sure then!" As soon as he gets the uniform on,
he's thrown in a plane to Iraq, gets his leg blown off, then flown
back. At the secluded airport where the Army hides it arriving dead
and wounded two MP's strip off his uniform, leaving him in his
underwear on the dark runway hopping on his one remaining leg. "Hey
you bastards!" the jock yells "You already took my
leg to save America from getting nuked, but now my uniform too?"
They yell back to him as they're leaving, "There never were
any nukes you sucker- Bush just wanted himself a war, and the Army
sure as hell don't want no cripples, so you're
fired! Now hop the hell out of here." |

Free Trade
(by Mark Smith) Not since
*Lincoln freed
the slaves in 1863 have American Christian businessmen been able to make such
a profit off the slave labor of others. According to recent news,
the rich are getting even richer even faster than before. This is
all thanks to places like China, allowing US retailers like Wal-Mart
(owned and run by hyper-Fundies)
to pay next to nothing for merchandise produced by slave labor,
resulting in insane profits. And though paying 10 cents per hour to
eight year olds working 12 hour shifts is illegal in America, it's
all perfectly ok if done by American companies by proxy in China. Of
course, they're not exactly slaves- after all, they have a choice:
they can work (for 10 cents an hour), or they can get a bullet in
their head (which their family has to pay for). When American
Christians get caught traveling overseas to obtain what's illegal
and/or immoral here (hookers, drugs, underage girls, pedophilia) the
churches rightly condemn them. What then of American Christian
businessmen who fire their American workers, then travel overseas to get cheap slave
labor replacements? Is slavery now alright, as long as it's
done outside the borders of the USA? *Speaking of Lincoln,
it appears he had more sense than most Fundies do today. "Lincoln
had doubted the divinity of Christ and the infallibility of the
Bible." (TIME magazine, July 4, 2005, p. 40) |
Amend The Constitution! (by
Mark Smith)
Seeing how the evil Demon-crats may try to impeach our good & godly
president for his war crimes regarding his invasion and conquest of
Iraq upon false pretenses, we should amend the constitution so that
such immoral and unchristian actions will be perfectly legal in the
future. We propose the following:
Whatsoever a Republican president says, be it true or false, becomes
the official true truth upon which our government shall act.
Therefore, if a Republican president claims (with or without
manufactured false evidence) that Canada or Mexico or England or
Russia or China or France or the Vatican
or
all of them put together have secret weapons of mass destruction,
that becomes the truth- the true truth- and we as self-declared
global defenders of freedom and all that's good in the world- we are
free to declare war on those godless heathens, take them over, for
their own good of course, and Halliburton gets to make vast
profits off of rebuilding them as just compensation for everyone
else's time and trouble. And we get to set up whatever type of
government we want, again, for their own good. And any who oppose us
in these countries or at home will automatically be labeled as
"terrorist combatants" under the Patriot Act, and get locked
away in Gitmo without trial for life.
Amen and Amend the constitution now! |

George
Galloway- Iraq War Based on Pack of Lies |

It took a foreigner,
George Galloway, a member of Britain's Parliament,
to break thru Bush's gag on the U.S. media to expose the Bushit (Bush + Bullshit = Bushit)
on Iraq for what it is.
Too bad he can't run for president, but he is scheduled to be on a
speaking tour in the USA, summer of 2005. You can read below what he
said in testimony before a Senate sub-committee (3-17-05),
or click his photo and hear for yourself.
**********************
"I gave my heart and soul to stop you
committing the disaster that you did commit in invading Iraq.
And I told the world that your case for the war was a
PACK OF LIES. I told the
world that Iraq, contrary to your claims, did not have
weapons of mass destruction. I told the world, contrary to your
claims, that Iraq had no connection to al-Qaida. I told the
world, contrary to your claims, that Iraq had no connection
to the atrocity on 9-11, 2001. I told the world, contrary to your
claims, that the Iraqi people would resist a British and
American invasion of their country, and that the fall of
Baghdad would not be the beginning of the end, but merely the end of
the beginning. Senator [Coleman], in
everything I said about Iraq I turned out to be right and you
turned out to be wrong, and 100,000 people have paid with
their lives, 1,600 of them American soldiers, sent to their deaths
on a pack of lies. 15,000 of them wounded, many of
them disabled forever, on a PACK OF LIES. If the world
had listened... to me, we would not be in the disaster we are in
today. Senator, this (hearing) is the mother of all smokescreens.
You are trying to divert attention from the crimes that you
supported, from the theft of billions of dollars of Iraq's
wealth. Have a look at the real "oil for food" scandal, have a look
at the 14 months you were in charge of Baghdad, the first 14 months,
when $8.8 BILLION dollars of Iraq's wealth
went missing, on
your watch. Have a look at Halliburton and the other American
corporations, that stole not only Iraq's money, but also the money
of the American tax payer. Have a look at the oil that you didn't
even meter, that you were shipping out of the country, the proceeds
of which went who knows where. Have a look at the $800 million
dollars to gave to American military commanders to hand out around
the country, without even counting it or weighing it. Have a look at
the real scandal breaking in the newspapers today, that the biggest
sanction busters... were your own companies, with the
connivance of your own government."

against Saddam- that being the case, let Bush or his daughters go over and
fight it, and this time no chicken-shit hiding out in the Texas Air
National Guard. |

Three Strikes

What is it for the secretary of defense?"*

**WASHINGTON — When the white-maned lion of the
Senate engaged the steely-eyed defense chief in verbal combat over
the war in Iraq this past week, Americans saw the terms of our
dilemma in sharp relief.

infrequently, boring. Not this one before the Senate Arme | |
