The FISA Bill in the Senate Continues to advance and has reached another critica juncture, Lets see is something can be done!



The FISA bill in the Senate continues to advance and has reached another critical juncture. The Judiciary and
ACTFORCHANGE ACTIVISM UPDATE: November 30, 2007
Intelligence Committees have passed different versions of the bill. One includes dangerous amnesty provisions for telcos and one does not. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will now decide which version will advance to the floor, and he needs to hear that any form of amnesty is unacceptable.
You'll notice a new format in the action alert below because ActForChange is changing its name to CREDO Action. We changed our name on November 4, 2007 -- one year to the day before the presidential election of 2008.
For more on why we changed our name, visit our blog. To send an urgent message to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, please read the CREDO Action alert below.
Will EastonActivism Manager, CREDO Action


No amnesty for law-breaking telecom companies!


Tell Majority Leader Reid: No Amnesty for AT&T and Verizon
In past weeks, the U.S. Senate has crafted legislation to update the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). The Intelligence Committee passed a version that would grant retroactive amnesty to big telecom companies who colluded in Bush's illegal program to spy on Americans.
In response to citizen outcry, the Judiciary Committee passed a version that did not include the amnesty provisions. Now, Senate Majority Leader Reid will decide which version gets put up for a final vote by the whole Senate. He has the power as Majority Leader to stand up for civil liberties and protect the constitutional privacy rights of all Americans -- or he could cave in to the White House's demands to let its telco cronies off the hook. Tell Senator Reid to keep amnesty for telcos out of FISA
Why amnesty? Bush wants retroactive amnesty for the telecom companies to thwart civil liberties lawsuits that threaten to expose his own violations of the original FISA law. If these lawsuits aren't allowed to go forward, we may never know the extent of the Bush administration's illegal efforts to spy on American citizens without the required warrants.

Blackwater Security on Steroids, thats just what we need! That explains an awful lot but First...

When I saw this story the other day I saved it but dismissed its importance. I was looking at it again this morning and everything started to make sense, come into perspective, and really concern me as to the future! I saw visions of Van Damme's Universal soldier.
First I just heard that Bush was at the Pentagon discussing where we would concentrate our efforts when we are done in Iraq and Afghanistan. I can't believe they can be so stupid as to think they will succeed in anything. Why start now! Anyway we are in Iraq permanently and he just penned the agreement with them so what is he talking about?

Okay, I wanted to divert from my usual subject of bush and his Forever War today to showcase "Blackwater is alleged to be taking Steroids" imagine? I have visions of Universal soldier. In light of the fact that we are concerned that Blackwater will be employed on us as bush needs the terrorists to persecute his wars and we are Bush's real enemies.
Anyway, A lawsuit against government contractor Blackwater Worldwide accuses its bodyguards of ignoring a direct order and abandoning their post shortly before taking part in a shooting in Baghdad that killed 17 Iraqi civilians. Filed this week in U.S. District Court in Washington, the complaint also accuses North Carolina-based Blackwater of failing to give drug tests to its guards in Baghdad — even though an estimated one in four of them was using steroids or other "judgment altering substances." A Blackwater spokeswoman said Tuesday its employees are banned from using steroids or other enhancement drugs but declined to comment on the other charges detailed in the 18-page lawsuit.

The lawsuit also accuses Blackwater of routinely sending its guards into Baghdad despite knowing that at least 25 percent of them were using steroids or other "judgment-altering substances." Attorneys estimated that Blackwater employs about 600 guards in Iraq. The company "did not conduct drug-testing of any of its shooters before sending them equipped with heavy weapons into the streets of Baghdad," the lawsuit states.
Blackwater's contract with the State Department to protect diplomats in Iraq expires in May, and there are questions whether it will remain as the primary contractor for diplomatic bodyguards. Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has said his Cabinet is drafting legislation that would force the State Department to replace Blackwater with another security company. scarey Blackwater on steroids

Hearing of Blakwater's guards taking steroids before going on assignments explains an awful lot to me! I know like Republicans and everyone else today they didn't do anything wrong except get caught. I am sick of the norm since bush and his lousy example, that it is okay to lie as long as you get your way.
Anyway no wonder we hear of these guys jumping the gun and flying off the handle all the time. A war zone is adrenalin pumping without the inducement of steroids to turn you into Universal Soldier

** I am very concerned as these guys seem to be above the law despite efforts to reel them in and now finding out that they are on steroids as many of us feel these men will be used against us before this is done as we are Bush's real problem as he moves to take total control of us and our America

Yesterdays effort to divide and conquer the middle east will succeed and is bearing quick fruit as Arabs and Ahmadinejad react!


Bush the Destroyer: I talk often about Bush's use of Rove taught 3D Politics ( divisive, deceptive, deceitful, Politics) to achieve his goals. You know in the U.S that is new societal order and in the middle east he wants to create a new middle east order. Trying to achieve these will provide the impetus to pursue his desired new world order.We have been saying for quite a while that Bush has sped up the fall of the United States. It was headed the way of the Roman Empire but Bush sped up the process. I have also said many times that Bush is following the 19th century Russian Doctrine of Destruction and must create disorder before he can come to the rescue with his new order.

Yesterday it dawned on me that the middle east peace conference may bring Palestine and Israel together but beyond a shadow of a doubt it will prove only to set up the division in the middle east necessary for Bush to pursue his and Israel's plan for new middle east order providing the buffer zone Israel is after. It was no surprise to me that Syria was at the meeting as they are neighbors and it behooves them to at least show up and feign cooperation.
Look at this and think about the big picture in the middle east.
Bush: "We meet to lay the foundation for the establishment of a new nation -- a democratic Palestinian state that will live side by side with Israel in peace and security. "We meet to help bring an end to the violence that has been the true enemy of the aspirations of both the Israelis and Palestinians. We're off to a strong start."

Abbas: "I would ... like to speak to the citizens of Israel on this exceptional occasion to tell them: Our neighbors on this small piece of land, neither you nor we are begging for peace from one another. Peace is a common interest of yours and ours. Peace and freedom are our rights just as peace and security are your rights and ours. It is time that the cycle of bloodshed, violence and occupation end." "The exceptional opportunity that the Arab, Islamic and international presence brings today coupled with overwhelming Palestinian and Israeli public opinion in support of Annapolis, must be seized in order to be a launching pad for a negotiations process."

Olmert: "I have no doubt that the reality created in our region in 1967 will change significantly. While this will be an extremely difficult process for many of us, it is nevertheless inevitable. I know it. Many of my people know it. We are ready for it." "We want peace. We demand an end to terror, incitement and hatred. We are willing to make a painful compromise, rife with risks in order to realize these aspirations." "There is no Muslim state with which we do not want to establish diplomatic relations. Anyone who wants peace with us, we say to them, from the bottom of our hearts, 'Ahalan Wa'Sahlan' (Welcome)."
Quotes from Annapolis
Today the expected reaction: Arab commentators on Wednesday dismissed the relaunch of Israeli-Palestinian talks as a U.S.-staged media event unlikely to lead to Middle East peace. Some argued that U.S. President George W. Bush's real aim in convening Tuesday's conference in Annapolis, Maryland, was to rescue his image after failures in Iraq and Afghanistan, or to persuade Arab states their deadliest foe was Iran, not Israel.

"The failure of Annapolis is now clear. (President Mahmoud) Abbas will return to Palestine without anything," said Essam el-Erian, a senior leader in Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood. Lebanon's former telecommunications minister Essam Noman, writing in the opposition al-Akhbar newspaper, said the United States had succeeded in "dragging the Arabs to a diplomatic talkfest". Ghassan Charbel, editor of the London-based Al-Hayat daily, said Arab states had gone to Annapolis without illusions.

I have to agree with them because they are right on. They got the message that Bush thinks he is the policeman of the middle east, is responsible for their safety and stability, and that Iran is their enemy not Israel. They know just the opposite. They know Bush will not press Israel as he is all for them.
Has Bush ever succeeded in dividing the middle east: Mohamed al-Sayed Said, deputy director of Cairo's Al-Ahram Centre for Political and Strategic Studies, queried Bush's understanding of the Middle East and his commitment to peace. "He is totally biased toward Israel and in his speech explained the maladies of the region only by reference to what he considered fanatics or extremists," Said said.

Saudi Arabia refused to shake hands with Israel and Syria was only there to demand the Golan Heights back. Syrians and Arabs are not optimistic and they should not be. Arabs doubt Annapolis conference
Ahmadinejad throws his venom in too: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Wednesday that the U.S.-brokered Mideast peace conference was a "failure" and that Israel is doomed to "collapse," lashing out at the Annapolis gathering that many saw as aimed at isolating Iran. "It is impossible that the Zionist regime will survive. Collapse is in the nature of this regime because it has been created on aggression, lying, oppression and crime," Ahmadinejad said after a Cabinet meeting, according to state-run television.

"Soon, even the most politically doltish individuals will understand that this conference was a failure from the beginning," he said, the official IRNA news agency reported. Iran has repeatedly condemned the Annapolis conference, saying it would fail to bring any peace for the Palestinians. Ahmadinejad said the Palestinian "resistance" — such as Hamas, which is backed by Tehran — must have a say in any settlement. You know that is not going to happen.
Ahmadinejad has raised controversy in the West with past predictions of Israel's eventual destruction, including a comment saying it should be "wiped off" or "disappear" from the map — and even critics at home said his inflammatory speeches were needlessly provoking the West against Iran. Ahmadinejad says Israel is Doomed

** It was obvious to me that Abbas and Olmert sincerely want Peace but they are overlooking two very important things that will blow up in their faces. They may in the end have Peace temporarily between the two Nations. However, they forget Bush may want their two countries peacefully sided by side but

1. He practices the Politics of division to create disorder to get what he wants and replace it with his version of new order. And
2. Iran's leaders amongst others do not want bush's new order they want theirs and will fight to the end to get it. When all is said and done the entire middle east will be embroiled because of Bush and when the rest of the world steps in to help Iran Bush will get his reason to take on the world and replace the disorder he created with his version of new world order or so he thinks.

I talk often about Bush's Politics of Division to get what he wants it just dawned on me with todays meeting that he's doing it to the middle east!


Divide and Conquer: I talk often about Bush's Politics of Division to get what he wants in the US, his middle east efforts at division to get what he wants just dawned on me!

Bush the Destroyer: I talk often about Bush's use of Rove taught 3D Politics ( divisive, deceptive, deceitful, Politics) to achieve his goals. You know in the U.S that is new societal order and in the middle east he wants to create a new middle east order. Trying to achieve these will provide the impetus to pursue his desired new world order.
We have been saying for quite a while that Bush has sped up the fall of the United States. It was headed the way of the Roman Empire but Bush sped up the process. I have also said many times that Bush is following the 19th century Russian Doctrine of Destruction and must create disorder before he can come to the rescue with his new order. I keep asking and still get no answer but why can't people see this and televise it and get it heard?

Anyway two things just occurred that really highlight his negative influence to the US and what he is doing to the middle east, and how what Israel and Palestine think will be success with Bush being the judge, will end up in total disorder around the world and per the doctrine he is following, enable him to so he thinks, implement his new world order.
We talk often of how Bush has purposely left the Border open, allowed illegal immigration to fuel his new societal order, has been widening the gap between the haves and the have not's, was destroying our America to replace it with his version, and like everything else he does, end in total chaos.

With that said I must say I do not like or agree with Pat Buchanan and he is dead wrong as to why America is Decomposing, coming apart. it is all Bush's doing but here are a few highlights of what he said and I ask you to please read the rest of this interview with the ignorant Hannity!

PAT BUCHANAN, AUTHOR, "DAY OF RECKONING"/CONSERVATIVE COMMENTATOR: Yeah, this would have been my time. It's a little past it for me but my ideas are out there. HANNITY: Look, I've said this to you many times. We're friends. Pat Buchanan is often ahead of his time. You were way ahead of your time on immigration in the debate in this country. Here's what you say in the book, and it scares me because a lot of — having read the book now, I'm afraid this may be true.
"America is coming apart. Decomposing. And the likelihood of her survival as one nation is improbable and impossible if America continues on its current course." Pat Buchanan, that's a scary scenario for all of us who love this country. BUCHANAN: It is. But take a look at the unity we had, say in the 1950s and early 1960s. What have we gone through? You had a cultural war that's divided us completely on matters of morality. You've got a wholesale invasion, the greatest invasion in human history, coming across your southern border, changing the composition and character of your country. You've got the melting pot that once welded us all together, which has broken down.
All of these things are happening, Sean, and frankly we've got have the kind of solid, firm, national leadership you need to deal with this crisis. HANNITY: You say we're on a path of national suicide. I want to ask this question directly because you say it's a day of reckoning. Do you really believe that America, the country we all love as we know it, is in jeopardy of existing? please read the rest I believe it
Buchanan is way off as to why this is happening and I advise you to ignore his and Hannity's ignorance after the conversation on America's demise. Bush the destroyer has purposely created division where there was none so he could use it for his Political gain and implement his new order out of his created disorder. Listening to the interview this morning at Annapolis I realized he is doing the same thing in the middle east to get what he wants there.
Look at this and think about the big picture in the middle east.

Bush: "We meet to lay the foundation for the establishment of a new nation -- a democratic Palestinian state that will live side by side with Israel in peace and security. "We meet to help bring an end to the violence that has been the true enemy of the aspirations of both the Israelis and Palestinians. We're off to a strong start."

Abbas: "I would ... like to speak to the citizens of Israel on this exceptional occasion to tell them: Our neighbors on this small piece of land, neither you nor we are begging for peace from one another. Peace is a common interest of yours and ours. Peace and freedom are our rights just as peace and security are your rights and ours. It is time that the cycle of bloodshed, violence and occupation end." "The exceptional opportunity that the Arab, Islamic and international presence brings today coupled with overwhelming Palestinian and Israeli public opinion in support of Annapolis, must be seized in order to be a launching pad for a negotiations process."

Olmert: "I have no doubt that the reality created in our region in 1967 will change significantly. While this will be an extremely difficult process for many of us, it is nevertheless inevitable. I know it. Many of my people know it. We are ready for it." "We want peace. We demand an end to terror, incitement and hatred. We are willing to make a painful compromise, rife with risks in order to realize these aspirations." "There is no Muslim state with which we do not want to establish diplomatic relations. Anyone who wants peace with us, we say to them, from the bottom of our hearts, 'Ahalan Wa'Sahlan' (Welcome)." Quotes from Annapolis

Republicans continue to Destroy themselves and their party as Bush Honors Gore at White House! Bush doesn't care so what's it worth? What'll Gore do?


Today I want to discuss the self destruction of the Republican party but knowing Bush does not care and the fact that some of us are very concerned that one way or the other the 2008 elections will once again be stolen. I want to talk about the two faced lying Bush as Gore is going to be there today to be honored by the idiot who lied and stole his election but first a reminder that a week ago we discussed the underhanded lying disinformation campaigning taught by Rove and used routinely By Republicans now being employed by Democrats against Democrats.

I have said for quite a while now that if we are to be able to compete with and beat this underhanded Republican disinformation campaign we must like it or not play the game on their level but we must not be damaging our own party for personal gain at the expense of our America. This just plays into Rove's and Republican hands.With only 30 days until the first votes are cast in the Iowa caucus, every candidate and campaign is looking for an edge, and clearly some folks are finding those edges in dirty tricks — nasty information, sometimes false, often spread anonymously. It's a murky world and often tough to tell what's true, what's false and where any of it is coming from. This weekend, conservative columnist Robert Novak reported that agents of Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., claimed her campaign has scandalous information about Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., but they have decided not to use it.The Obama campaign quickly took the item and used it to tar Clinton as part of the proverbial problem. "If the purpose of this shameless item was to daunt or discourage me or supporters of our campaign from challenging and changing the politics of Washington, it will fail," an Obama campaign statement said.Dirty tricks have been a part of American politics as far back as the mudslinging in the 1800 race between Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. The Dirty game
Democratic sniping against their own is not subsiding but I am happy to hear that the Republican frontrunners are doing it to each other and it is taking a toll. GOP hopefuls Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani exchanged numerous verbal spars over the weekend -- just days before the two will meet face-to-face at the CNN/YouTube debate. The bulk of the battle stemmed from Romney's decision on Friday to call for the resignation of Massachusetts Superior Court Judge Kathe Tuttman -- 20 months after he appointed her.

Romney defended his decision Saturday, saying that Tuttman had "showed an inexplicable lack of good judgment," and that, despite her "record of being a law and order prosecutor," her poor judgment requires her to step down. Giuliani, who was also in New Hampshire, told The Associated Press on Saturday, "the governor is going to have to explain his appointment and the judge is going to have to explain her decision."
Romney shot back -- making jabs at Giuliani's judgment. Romney pointed to his rival's close friend and former New York police commissioner, Bernard Kerik, who is being indicted on multiple counts of corruption and fraud. "It's strange to have him bringing forward my selection of individuals to serve, judges and so forth, when he's got Bernie Kerik all over him these days. When someone he knew was under investigation, he recommended to the president to be secretary of Homeland Security?... Throwing stones from a glass house is never a wise thing to do," Romney said in an interview to be aired Monday on CNN's "The Situation Room." romney, Giuliani attacks get personal
Also, The back-and-forth backbiting between Republican presidential rivals Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney spilled over into Sunday as Giuliani contended that the former Massachusetts governor has fumbled on health care and economic matters.
Asked by a diner patron about Romney's health care program while governor, Giuliani said Romney "made a mistake" by mandating coverage for all Massachusetts residents. "When you mandate it, it ends up costing you much more money," said Giuliani, a former New York mayor. Repug backbiting continues
Being from Massachusetts I will tell you Romney is as worthless and as big a liar as Bush. His damage was wide spread and is still coming to light. I am happy to see the Republican back biting and I can only hope they eat themselves up though I do question whether or not it matters knowing many of us think that if there is an election in 2008 it will by hook or by crook stolen by the Republicans.
That said I am still happy to see Sen. Trent Lott of Mississippi, the No. 2 Republican in the Senate, will announce his resignation effective this year, FOX News has learned. Lott, 66, was re-elected in 2006 amid speculation that he would retire. Instead, against his wife Tricia's wishes, he ran again, regaining a Senate leadership position after being forced from the top Republican seat in 2002, following remarks he made that were seen as racially insensitive.
Lott, who is serving his fourth Senate term, was expected to discuss his plans later Monday. Lott becomes the sixth Senate Republican this year to announce retirement, possibly posing more difficulties for an embattled GOP that will be trying to retain the presidency and fight further losses to Democrats who regained control of both houses of Congress last November.

His leaving also will create an open Republican leadership slot, but FOX News has learned that Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona will make a run for that spot. Lott's decision to remain in the Senate last year was aimed in part at using his clout to push for repairs to his state's coastal region after the wrath left by the 2005 hurricane season, including hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Lott's own coastal home was destroyed by the storms. Good or bad you decide
* I thought Lott was tired of the game and wanted out now because he was sick of playing the sole role of blocking any Democratic efforts to help the country and the people. Then I found out all these idiots are getting out before the new law kicks in and they have to wait 2 years before they can be Lobbyists and steal real money. I can only hope all recent events help destroy the Republican Party though as I said and many feel the same way, I absolutely expect another stolen election.
** Quickly I want to touch on Al Gore going to the White House to be honored by the idiot who stole his Presidency. The two will meet today in the Oval Office, where President Bush will honor the American winners of this year's Nobel's, including Gore, the former vice president who claimed his share of the Peace Prize this year for his work on global warming and also claimed a majority of the popular vote in the presidential election of 2000 but lost to Bush in the Electoral College -- following a 36-day court fight over a disputed 537-vote margin for Bush in Florida.
Listen to this BS! "The president is very pleased that both Vice President Gore and Mrs. Gore will attend today,'' said Dana Perino, the White House press secretary. "President Bush personally called Vice President Gore and asked him to attend… They will meet privately… in the Oval… prior to the visit with the other Nobel laureates.
"This president is looking forward to having a private meeting with him,'' she said. Yet the Oval Office ceremony with the Nobel laureates will serve as a "photo opportunity,'' not a public ceremony per se, the White House says today. What's said in the Oval Office may well stay in the Oval Office. Look at this BS
** I am sick of the games, underhandedness, and two faced lying initiated by this mis-Administration. I am sure there will be a private meeting first but only to hopefully eliminate any unwelcome surprises. I would love for Gore to take the opportunity to announce a run for the Presidency. Wow would that change the landscape! Either that or he should accept Bush's congratulations and instead of shaking hands with the chief idiot, simply nod and walk away! What do you think?

Today the latest on what we will be facing around the world virtually alone as Bush takes total control or us to fight his wars!





Bush will take on the entire world for God!








First I have to say I am peeved because this timely writers strike is just too coincidental. I was just listening to all the Democrats saying they would not cross the line and talk Politics. It really bothers me because with Bush having passed a law to go after those that hamper his war mongering and finding out that the Treason of Plamegate came right from Bush, now is the friggen time to speak up!
Now, Yesterday we discussed the worlds leaders abandoning us as Bush continues to clamp down on those that disagree with his warmongering! Today the latest on what we will be facing around the world virtually alone! I was perusing the news around the world this morning so I could relate the latest in what is happening around the world in this Bush created unstoppable world Break down! we are increasingly alone with Israel and it only pleases Bush more as he thinks he is doing Gods work and this will only gain him favor.

Anyway yesterday at the end of the day I said I hate to tell everyone but we already have a dictatorship, it is already here. Bush like everything else he is doing underhandedly is merely trying to invoke the word Democracy to hide his true meaning and mask what he is really doing which is to have total control while he works for God and prepares this hell on earth he is creating for him right here.

I have to laugh! A return to the cold war is always discussed but There was a quick return to the cold war long ago. It has just become noticed because the world is sick of Bush's warmongering and openly ramping up to fight him. I have to laugh! The MDS (missile defense system) may or may not work but as I have said numerous times, It has already worked for Bush and provided the impetus for the world to gather together so he can fight them and get the excuse to stay in power to fight for the hell on earth he is creating for God. Yes not only is Russia and China along with the 135 non aligned Nations and most of the world openly helping Iran obtain their nuclear ambitions but they are supplying them the hardware to defend themselves often times with the manpower to man the complicated military equipment. It was at least 6 months ago now but Putin for one has given the Russian paramilitary orders to defend their Iranian interests against us if or should I say when Bush attacks. As I wrote, as the world abandons us Bush is daily tightening the noose around us as you know to enable him to take total control and prosecute his Forever War with only Israel if he has to. He will not stop!
The latest developments in Bush's failure in the middle east that will give him the excuse to ramp up his World War three! They are many. Former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif will try to return to Pakistan on Sunday, his second attempt since September. Sharif, leader of the opposition party Pakistan Muslim League, has been in exile in Saudi Arabia. He was convicted of tax evasion and treason after being ousted but was released in 2000 in exchange for agreeing to 10 years of exile in Saudi Arabia. Was it a fabricated charge?
Sharif retained his Pakistani citizenship but has not been allowed to travel to Pakistan or directly take part in Pakistani politics. His return comes a month after his predecessor and another opposition leader Benazir Bhutto returned to Pakistan, herself from exile. The developments came amid a state of emergency declared on November 3 by Musharraf, whose office at army headquarters where he serves as military chief is in Rawalpindi. He has called the measure necessary to counter rising tensions and terrorism. His opponents, however, say he used the measure to suspend the constitution, fire the country's Supreme Court justices and solidify power. Sharif just arrived lets see what happens

I have to laugh! This all sounds like a Bush style set up to steal power. Isn't it too much to be coincidence that Musharraf allowed Bhutto home then put her under house arrest where he could control her? Now he has allowed Sharif back and I expect the same thing. He arrest Bhutto supporters and he is now arresting Sharif supporters but I fully expect this to erupt to where Bush has the excuse to intervene and look forced to do so though support for and interference by Bush is the reason for this break down too.

In the middle east his breakdown progresses and despite everything because of his interference will only get mush worse until it to blows wide open. BEIRUT, Lebanon (CNN) -- Just hours before President Emile Lahoud was scheduled to leave office, an opposition boycott has kept Lebanon's parliament from choosing his successor.
The Syrian- and Iranian-backed opposition has suggested it might form a rival government against that backed by Western interests. Failure to settle on a candidate could lead to a power vacuum -- or worse. The army and other security forces were on full alert as the nation braced itself for possible violence. There will be no peace here as In the past two years, four members of the Lebanese parliament have been assassinated. Iran and Syria will see to it that there is no peace unless it is on there terms. Political deadlock in Lebanon.

Anyway knowing One of Lahoud's last acts as president was to order the army to maintain security. "There are conditions and risks on the ground that could lead to a state of emergency over all Lebanese territory as of the 24th of November 2007," said presidential spokesman Rafiq Shalala. "Therefore, the president has entrusted the Lebanese army with security." He said Lahoud is not declaring a state of emergency but calling on the army to maintain order.
Lahoud's decision to hand security to the military leaves in place, for the time being, the government of Western-backed Prime Minister Faoud Sinioria. The outgoing president took a swipe at that government, saying it is "illegitimate and unconstitutional -- and they know it. Even if Bush, America and the entire world said that it is a legitimate government, it is still illegitimate, and they know it. Lebanon President steps down leaves army in charge
Isn't that martial order leaving no President and telling the Army to maintain security.? I have to agree with Lahoud and Iran and Syria will ensure that Bush's interference fails here too.
Bush has left virtually no middle east country unscathed and despite the upcoming conference the entire middle east will fail. President Bush, who has avoided playing much of a role in the Middle East peace process, is now gambling that the time is right for progress in the troubled region. But the risks are high, and the odds for success seem long. The planned three-day conference in Annapolis, Md., and Washington this week comes with just 14 months left in Bush's term and his legacy tarnished by the war in Iraq.

Pushing for an Israeli-Palestinian peace has preoccupied more than one U.S. president. President Clinton made it a top agenda item in the closing days of his presidency. But with the notable exception of President Carter, whose Camp David sessions in 1978 led to a peace treaty the following year between Israel and Egypt, presidential Mideast peacemaking has fizzled.
The stakes for the session increased Friday when Saudi Arabia and other Arab states agreed to attend the conference. Egypt, Jordan and the Palestinians had already accepted the U.S. invitations. The stakes are high but read it this will fail too
Thanks to Bush and his interference in the middle east this will fail like everything he touches and the entire middle east will breakdown into chaos. When it does the rest of the world will get involved and Bush's world war three will get underway and all our concern will not stop the world breakdown Bush started.

Today we discuss the demise of world leader who support Bush's wars as Bush tightens down on us so he can fight alone if "we" have to,Bush won't stop!




The list is getting too long so Tomorrow we will discuss recent developments in the growing explosion in the middle east as it increasingly looks like Bush will prosecute this middle east breakdown as it is rapidly evolving into World war three and no one will stop it because world leaders and Islamists are prepared to fight it out to the death militarily because they all think they can win their way and the common people will be the losers.

First the countries of the world that have leaders that support Bush and his warmongering are slowly but surely turning on them. We don't have to discuss what Musharraf has done in Pakistan and the simple fact that it too will erupt until Bush has the excuse to go after them too. We know how this will all turn out regardless of the efforts of those of us that do not matter but we can't stop trying to make a difference. We are increasingly alone thanks to the chief idiot!

Yesterday Australia’s prime minister, John Howard, one of President Bush’s staunchest allies in Asia, suffered a comprehensive defeat at the hands of the electorate on Saturday, as his Liberal Party-led coalition lost its majority in Parliament. Another Bush supporting world leader bites the dust as Mr. Howard’s defeat, after 11 years in power, follows that of José María Aznar of Spain, who also backed the United States-led invasion of Iraq, and political setbacks for Tony Blair of Britain. The world is waking up and abandoning us as Bush continues to put a choke hold on our liberties and those that speak against his warmongering as you know, certainly if you have been following the recent conversation at Lydia's.

Mr. Howard may suffer the indignity of losing his own seat of Bennelong on Sydney’s north shore, which he has held for 33 years, to a former television anchor and rookie politician. He would be the first sitting prime minister to lose his seat since 1929. I want to point something out to you. That is stunning in itself but voluminously when you remember 1929, what it meant to the world, and who (Republicans) was in power when it happened and I keep saying on every scale this will be exponentially worse and it can not be stopped regardless of which party is in office next.
Mr. Howard has a strong personal relationship with Mr. Bush that is based on a similar socially conservative philosophy and a shared outlook on terrorism. Australian opinion polls have shown that although Australians remain strong supporters of the so-called Anzus alliance — the security pact among Australia, New Zealand and the United States — they do not approve of Mr. Bush or the Iraq war. “Howard is out of touch,” said George Varvaressos, 52, who voted in eastern Sydney on Saturday morning. “It’s the arrogance of being in power for too long — he hasn’t been listening.” Another one bites the dust
** Rudd who was a Diplomat in China speaks Mandarin and has a great relationship with China. China is not only fueling our economy but the Australian economy as well. As we are increasingly alienated by the rest of the civilized world someone like Rudd may be of use to us.
Anyway the world is wising up to Bush as we are but the other countries of the world care about their citizens where Bush does not and is increasingly silently stealing more power to keep us depressed so he can follow his wars. As Bush's mess worsens every day and the world abandons us we are increasingly powerless to stop Bush and are more alone against the world everyday.

With all roads pointing to future catastrophe: a 28th amendment to keep Bush in Control of the messes he created?

With all roads pointing to future catastrophe I see a good possibility of the 28th Amendment being to keep Bush at the helm of the mess he created himself!
I remember years ago hearing talk of a Constitutional Amendment to keep Bush in office if there was an increase in his created wars. That was specifically in regard to a possible war withy Iran. I am not the only one that sees that I am sorry to say as a small part of the future Bush has set in motion for us and the world. With the country environmentally and structurally falling apart as well as the growing dangers with Russia, India, Pakistan, China, hell around the world, If we are lucky enough to escape another stolen election or a Musharraf it dawned on me this morning that keeping the chief idiot at the helm of this mess is another possibility even with a Democratic Congress.

Though you know as well as I do he created this mess but will of course deny. I researched the Amendments and the possibility of this happening in the form of a 28th Amendment and was amazed to see the amount of proposals that have failed. With horror seeing all the failures in amending marriage, prohibition, States rights, and many more I started fearing many of the scenarios we continuously discuss in regard to us being totally controlled by Bush a more or less permanent decider.
I see nothing but chaos for us. Anyway it made me look at our Constitution knowing it means nothing to Bush beyond something he must self interpret to follow his plan for total control. Looking at the first 10 amendments (The Bill of Rights) and the other 17 Amendments, the Constitution as we all know already is absolutely worthless.

Naomi Wolf's too late book on the End of America is not news but john Kasich's response is frightening and why we are in trouble!






Yesterday I was sent information pertaining to Naomi wolf's new Book America, The End of a Democracy. I read it of course and agree with it but in my reply I said as I do in every instance that we have discussed all of this numerous times and by the time someone who will be listened too writes a book about it, it is already too late to stop it. In light of numerous past discussions I first want to list the 10 steps listed to end a Democracy as they pertain to us and you will agree.

1. Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy. After 9/11 the Patriot act was passed, fear constantly pressed on us and Bush started his power grab.
2. Create a gulag . Once you have got everyone scared, the next step is to create a prison system outside the rule of law
3. Develop a thug caste: Blackwater and private security even at times various Governmental agencies.
4. Set up an internal surveillance system
5. Harass citizens' groups
6. Engage in arbitrary detention and release
7. Target key individuals: Threaten civil servants
8. Control the press
9. Dissent equals treason: We know only Bushco can commit treason as they set up their new America
10. Suspend the rule of law: The John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007 gave the president new powers over the national guard. He can now send New York's national guard
Fascist America in 10 easy steps

Remember the 14 common threads of Fascism: keep the entire world in mind but particularly how everyone of them applies in America today. This is scarey!
* 1. Powerful and continuing expressions of nationalism. Bingo!

* 2. Disdain for the importance of human rights. Bingo!

* 3. Identification of enemies/scapegoats as a unifying cause. Bingo!

* 4. The supremacy of the military/avid militarism. Bingo!

* 5. Rampant sexism. This is the only thread "I hope" does not apply here but does with the Islamists

* 6. A controlled mass media. Bingo!

* 7. Obsession with national security. Bingo!

* 8. Religion and ruling elite tied together. Bingo!

* 9. Power of corporations protected. Bingo!

* 10. Power of labor suppressed or eliminated. Bingo!

* 11. Disdain and suppression of intellectuals and the arts. (at the link read how it does apply)

* 12. Obsession with crime and punishment.

* 13. Rampant cronyism and corruption. Bingo!

* 14. Fraudulent elections. Bingo!

Anyway no one capable of a thought process can deny what is happening today unless they are one of the enablers. With that said I caught Faux news John Kasich interview Naomi and I use to respect him until i watched the interview video and he wouldn't let her get a word in edge wise. He was sarcastic and kept cutting her off. Very quickly he shut her off and said no more the conversations over. Please watch the ignorance
It was hilarious watching john Colberts interview of Naomi and you will enjoy it too. The Colbert Report
Anyway you look at it we know Naomi is right but enough will not listen and I am afraid it is too late to alter what is going to happen here and around the world but I, you, we cannot stop trying and must stay together.

I have to laugh: When I heard Bush was pardoning Turkeys I thought he was talking about those in his Mis-Administration!








I absolutely hate seeing those hateful warmongering faces!
Yesterday afternoon there was a few breaking stories of interest. As usual I like to think about them and put them into context before I put them out. Some of the issues were being bandied about at Lydia's I think very well. Now that I have had time to think things through I am going to quickly list the stories, add the links, and add some points of view I have not heard as there are more than a few subjects and I generally like to expound on one.

* First I know we have discussed many times that there are too many daily crises to discuss and get the truth out on that we do not have time to dwell on one and remember them. I have never seen such a catastrophe as this mis-administration! With that in mind I want to remind you first that the increased mine accidents are a result of laxed safety measure since the advent of this mis-administration. I must admit I forgot all about those 6 miners who were trapped in Utah. They have now been entombed in the mine probably never to be recovered and their relatives notified. That is horrible! I haven't heard anything on it yet but I know there were shortcuts taken by the company and the Feds were supposed to take charge of the rescue operation and did not but let the inept mine owner run the show. Why? Only now are they looking at what they call Retreat mining in Utah

* There was a good discussion going on last night and today at Lydia's. The stock market just closed down another 225 points. It will get a lot worse as the reality of the lies set in. I forecast a Dow 10,000 a while back telling people this is not a little correction and if you haven't already ignore the links in the stories but please read why and who was at the helm the last time this happened. The coming Greatest Depression

* Much attention was paid to the fact that Former White House spokesman Scott McClellan says top administration officials -- including President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney -- were involved in his "unknowingly" passing along false information about the leak of a CIA operative's identity. McClellan stood at the White House podium and said that Karl Rove, the president's top political adviser, and I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Cheney's chief of staff, had not been involved in the treason of outing Plame. We knew the lies and rot came right from the top but the truth will never be known and they will all be given executive privilege and be given immunity. what I have yet to hear mentioned is, if McClellan says he passed on false information and he knows it doesn't that mean he knowingly lied for Bush and the rest of them as we knew he was. Being a master liar is a job requirement in working for Bush especially as a White House spokesman. You have to lie period because of all the White House corruption!

* Damn I just heard the idiot is trying to keep Pakistan from trampling Democracy instead of promoting it.The Audacity!

* anyway the discovery of the ability to retrain skin cells to be stem cells could kill the entire issue of pro lifers but I am sure they will come up with something as they could theoretically be used to create life! The useless controversey

* You better be scared about the Bush Supreme court deciding to hear the case of whether or not Americans have the right to beat arms. Bush says we deserve to bear arms but I don't trust him. After all this time why hear it now during this idiots underhanded lying rule? The issue is military or civilians and what constitutes a militia.
* * I had to look up the definition and civilians can be a militia but I am scared that civilians and military will be separated and they should not be. Look at the dictionary definition: any army composed of citizens rather than ordinary soldiers. Any male between 18 and 45 and not already in one of the branches of the military.Knowing our fear for the future here it it the definition of unorganized militia that scares me: This is scary! Any of various groups of disaffected citizens that are organized to resemble an army and that oppose the authority of the Government. Boy are we in trouble!

* I wanted to discuss Gibson on Faux News defending Bush and decrying Rosie O'Donnell calling him a war criminal and that he was right about Iraq, the economy, and stem cell research but this is enough for now. I just want to say Rosie is right and Bush the idiot has been right about absolutely nothing.

US to add more troops to Pakistan tribal areas! Did you know we were there? So it Begins, World War Three!


You know I am very concerned about Pakistan knowing its proximity, its Islamic militancy, Its possession of nuclear weapons, and its growing volatility. On the 12th I did a story updating the tenuous situation in Pakistan with promise of US intervention. I do frequent updates as to its role in 9/11 and the developments in Pakistan because in this mis named war on terror, as goes in Pakistan so goes the US and the world. On the 12th I wrote Welcome to World War Three

I won't get into what we now call pulling a Musharraf but what I have learned this morning makes it necessary to update Pakistan's developments and our involvement there. First, now I understand why Musharraf says he will take off his uniform. As embattled President Pervez Musharraf and his political opponents grapple over the country's future, an equally crucial role may be played by a less known figure -- a blunt-talking, chain-smoking, golf-playing general who by all reports would like the army to get out of politics. Gen. Ashfaq Kayani, 55, Musharraf's designated No. 2 man in the military, is slotted to be the next army chief of Pakistan when Musharraf gives up his uniform, as he has promised to do. That would give him enormous influence in a country with a history of military rule and coups. A major question is just how loyal he and Pakistan's other generals are to Musharraf during the current crisis.

Kayani's importance is such that U.S. envoy John Negroponte, who knows the general from previous intelligence work, met with him twice on his whirlwind visit to Pakistan last weekend. So far, Kayani and the army are standing cautiously behind Musharraf, even if some soldiers privately disagreed with Musharraf's decision to declare a state of emergency Nov. 3, analysts and diplomats say. The top generals are more likely to just watch and wait for now; their main concern is whether a deteriorating situation might force them to confront civilian protesters and further undermine the military's shaky standing.
"I think currently the men are behind him," said a Western military official who spoke on condition of anonymity. "They're letting the politics play out." By his own schedule, Musharraf came a step closer to resigning as army chief of staff Monday when Pakistan's Supreme Court dismissed all but one legal challenge against his being president and military commander at the same time. Musharraf suspended the constitution earlier this month on the eve of the expected ruling, which could have declared his presidency invalid. Monday's ruling was made by a newly constituted court, which Musharraf packed with sympathetic justices after the emergency decree. It is expected on Thursday to reject the final challenge, which is a minor one. Musharraf has hand picked the courts to support him and he has appointed all the top Generals so he has sufficiently stacked the deck in his favor but this is very volatile pakistan and the military is sick of fighting its own people for the US so who knows? I was surprised to read about all the military coups. Please readThe tangled History

Amidst this volatility we are preparing to blow the whole thing wide open. A new and classified American military proposal outlines an intensified effort to enlist tribal leaders in the frontier areas of Pakistan in the fight against Al Qaeda and the Taliban, as part of a broader effort to bolster Pakistani forces against an expanding militancy, American military officials said.
If adopted, the proposal would join elements of a shift in strategy that would also be likely to expand the presence of American military trainers in Pakistan, directly finance a separate tribal paramilitary force that until now has proved largely ineffective and pay militias that agreed to fight Al Qaeda and foreign extremists, officials said. The United States now has only about 50 troops in Pakistan, a Pentagon spokesman said, a force that could grow by dozens under the new approach.

The proposal is modeled in part on a similar effort by American forces in Anbar Province in Iraq that has been hailed as a great success in fighting foreign insurgents there. But it raises the question of whether such partnerships, to be forged in this case by Pakistani troops backed by the United States, can be made without a significant American military presence in Pakistan. And it is unclear whether enough support can be found among the tribes, some of which are working with Pakistan's intelligence agency.

Altogether, the broader strategic move toward more local support is being accelerated because of concern about instability in Pakistan and the weakness of the Pakistani government, as well as fears that extremists with havens in the tribal areas could escalate their attacks on allied troops in Afghanistan. Just in recent weeks, Islamic militants sympathetic to Al Qaeda and the Taliban have already extended their reach beyond the frontier areas into more settled areas, most notably the mountainous region of Swat. All I see is Hell while American security officials say they see security Improvements. You read it and tell me

* All I see with an American military presence in Pakistan is an increase in desertions, deaths, and PTSD, as this so called war against terrorism will quickly erupt into World War Three and further Bush's Forever War!

Listen to Robert Novak? Come on! Democratic nominees are not stooping to Nixon's tactics but to Rove the master who was involved with Nixon too!


I have said for quite a while now that if we are to be able to compete with and beat this underhanded Republican disinformation campaign we must like it or not play the game on their level but we must not be damaging our own party for personal gain at the expense of our America. This just plays into Rove's and Republican hands.

With only 45 days until the first votes are cast in the Iowa caucus, every candidate and campaign is looking for an edge, and clearly some folks are finding those edges in dirty tricks — nasty information, sometimes false, often spread anonymously. It's a murky world and often tough to tell what's true, what's false and where any of it is coming from. This weekend, conservative columnist Robert Novak reported that agents of Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., claimed her campaign has scandalous information about Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., but they have decided not to use it.
The Obama campaign quickly took the item and used it to tar Clinton as part of the proverbial problem. "If the purpose of this shameless item was to daunt or discourage me or supporters of our campaign from challenging and changing the politics of Washington, it will fail," an Obama campaign statement said.Dirty tricks have been a part of American politics as far back as the mudslinging in the 1800 race between Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. The Dirty game

Rove and the Republicans have put the dirty politics on a new never before seen level and I am afraid it is here to stay! This information once again comes from the idiot Novak who as you know is a FOX News contributor who added that he did not believe there were any Republicans behind the effort — as some have alleged since his column was published Saturday — to force Democrats to fight against each other. Novak's initial report said: "Agents of Sen. Hillary Clinton are spreading the word in Democratic circles that she has scandalous information" about Obama, "but has decided not to use it. The nature of the alleged scandal was not disclosed."
On Monday, Novak told FOX News that claims that there is actual dirt on Obama might not pass the sniff test. "This is very similar to the kind of trick that Richard Nixon used to pull, where he would say, 'I know some very bad information about the communists supporting George McGovern, but I can't put that out because it wouldn't be right, but I'm just too good of a guy,' " Novak said. he also said he had no proof of the scandalous information. Then why doesn't he just shut up

Listening to this crap I find it necessary to reiterate something I pointed out a few months back and that the champ of dirty politicking Karl Rove was around then too. What a coincidence and he has been reaping the rewards for his underhanded politicking ever since. remember, with life long executive privilege he can not be touched and is more brazen and dangerous than ever.Karl Rove, 56, who served as chief strategist for President-elect Bush's presidential campaign, will manage the Office of Political Affairs, the Office of Public Liaison, and the Office of Strategic Initiatives at the White House. Before joining the campaign, he was president of Karl Rove and Company, an Austin-based public affairs firm. Rove attended the University of Utah, the University of Texas at Austin and George Mason University. He has taught at the LBJ School of Public Affairs and in the Journalism Department at the University of Texas at Austin.Underhanded Rove's education
After hearing on CNN that Rove attended numerous colleges but never graduated I went through numerous sites trying to find where that was mentioned and I could not find anything. Not even a mention of it in his White House autobiography. I found that surprising and that it was never mentioned. While I was digging besides the numerous interesting articles out there many which were never mentioned I found that he was born in 1950 and said he dreamed about being in the White House from that day.Worse I found that his lying underhanded tactics is what got him his start in Daddy's administration and the rewards for this started from day one and as you know continue today How Bush's Brain Hijacked Washington: Rove's ties to Bush the Elder commenced in 1973, when Poppy was the Republican national chairman and Karl aspired to be the president of the College Republicans. It was a post Rove could not win by the numbers. To circumvent them, he claimed that the organization was not adhering procedurally to the College Republican charter, and mounted credentials challenges to supporters of his opponent, Robert Edgeworth. In the end Rove essentially declared himself the winner of a separate election. The controversy got kicked upstairs to Bush, who awarded the election to Rove. Later, in retaliation, Edgeworth leaked to the Washington Post that Rove was teaching dirty tricks seminars to young Republicans--and fresh off the humiliation of Watergate, no less.

Bush promptly excommunicated Edgeworth from the Republican Party for his disloyalty in leaking the story. Rove, along with his friend and College Republicans ally Lee Atwater, became favored Bush protégés. Rove moved to Texas in 1977 to toil as a fundraiser on George Sr.'s failed presidential-exploration PAC, the Fund for Limited Government. A year later he worked on an unsuccessful primary run for the Texas legislature by George W Bush. Rewards for underhanded politicking
He was ruthless in chasing his goals, especially when it came to rivalries or power struggles with his own Republican cohorts. I was really surprised to see the well documented trail of underhanded Politics starting with Richard Nixon through his Fathers Presidency and now bush's and he continues to get away with it and be rewarded for it. Please read it. I wish we knew and made more of this years ago.

Sadly this dirty politicking has spread and seems to be a part of the Political landscape today. However I think these tactics should not be used to destroy members of our own party because it only plays into Republicans hands and serves their purpose. We must concentrate on them and getting our America back and get rid of Bush's.

Attacking Iran is why Iraq was attacked so Democrats waste their time, Chavez warns against the attack as Iran says the pressure is illegal!



Hell, the UN and the rest of the world were powerless to prevent Iraq from being attacked. They couldn't stop the idiots Cheney and Bush from lying until they found an excuse to attack Iraq so they could get our military back into the middle east and they will not leave. they will find the excuse to attack Iran per their original plan. This plan was formed in 1996 before Bush was elected to push it through.
It is Cheney's job to push it through and they will not stop. They continue to be committed to their basic plan: Destroy Iran and Syria, and make Israel the dominant power in the region. When I was googling looking for this report I found many in reference to helping Jordan and Turkey which is interesting in light of what has been transpiring of late with Turkey but here is the Perle Wurmser Report I wanted to show you. A clean break
They will not leave period and even if they did the damage has been done and the middle east breakdown will commence embroiling the entire middle east then encompass the entire world. It will not be stopped now despite a threat by Democrats,Chavez to hit us where it hurts, our wallets and our gas tanks, and the UN. Also remember that monstrous monument to this middle east failure Bush is building in Iraq. There is no end in sight and the exorbitant cost is approaching 3/4 of a Billion dollars.
Anyway, I find it laughable that anyone thinks Bushco will listen to them but A Democratic senator on Saturday accused President Bush and congressional Republicans of hindering his party's attempts to chart a new course in Iraq even though U.S. troops are fighting violence "they cannot possibly resolve." They don't get it but Bush wants a permanent presence in the middle east and doesn't want the problem resolved. He just needs an excuse to stay there until the middle east explodes!

Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pennsylvania, said increased troop levels ordered earlier this year to give Iraqi politicians breathing space to meet political and diplomatic goals have not had the intended result."That means our troops are fighting for a peace that we seem more interested in achieving than the Iraqi politicians do themselves," Casey said while delivering the Democrats' weekly radio address. read the wasted concern
The Iraqi Politicians do not want unity they want their own separate Autonomy. They need us to leave so they can go after each other but Bush will not leave until he furthers this mess and we are forced to continue fighting!

Chavez is even adding his two cents. In his opening address of a rare OPEC summit, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez warned the United States on Saturday that oil prices would further surge if the U.S. contemplates an attack against his country or Iran. The summit of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries opened Saturday in Saudi Arabia, with heads of states and delegates from 12 of the world's biggest oil-producing nations listening to a recitation from the Quran.

After the quotes from Islam's holy book, Chavez warned that the U.S. should not target OPEC members for foreign policy reasons. "If the United States attempts the madness of invading Iran or attacking Venezuela again, the price of oil is probably going to reach $200, not just $100," Chavez said. While Iran has been in a standoff with the U.S. over its nuclear program, left-wing Chavez is a bitter antagonist of President Bush.
"We are witnessing constant threats against Iran. I think OPEC should strengthen itself in this capacity and demand respect for the sovereignty of our nations, if the developed world wants a guaranteed supply of oil." It was the third full OPEC summit since the organization was created in 1960. Chavez's whole story

Meanwhile Western pressure on Iran to halt its uranium enrichment program has no legal basis and will not prevail, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said Sunday in the wake of a U.N. report that Tehran sees as a major political victory. "If threats and adventurism are aimed at depriving the Iranian nation of its legal nuclear rights, they will never succeed," Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini told reporters.
"I do not see any legal basis for illogical and unrealistic endeavors" against Iran's nuclear program, Hosseini said. On Thursday, a report by the U.N. nuclear watchdog concluded that Iran has been generally truthful about key aspects of its nuclear history, but warned that its knowledge of Tehran's present atomic work was shrinking. please read the whole story

* Bush's pressure on Iran is working as any idiot would have expected, they are going further underground with their efforts and it is just a matter of time before Bush can scare enough people to find his excuse to attack. Despite all the threats from here and around the world and advice to the contrary he will ignore all good advice once again as he did to get in the middle east by attacking Iraq.
He will once again ignore all good advice so he can attack Iran and further what he thinks will be his new middle east and world (dis?)order. Remember, at the same time, Pakistan is preparing to erupt and the world is rallying to go against Bush!

One example of how long we've been dealing with this underhanded crap as Dems find their voice while Bush lies to the public again today!


One example of how long we've been dealing with this underhanded crap as Dems find their voice while Bush lies to the public again!

House Democrats distinguished themselves this week when they stood up to the White House’s latest military funding steamroller: approving only $50 billion of the additional $196 billion the president requested for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. They also set conditions on the funding, including demands that troops start coming home from Iraq within 30 days and that the withdrawal be completed by mid-December 2008.
Senate Democrats quickly brought the House plan to the floor. But, ever the spoilers, Republicans blocked it, as they have other attempts to rein in Mr. Bush’s war-without-end in Iraq. Predictably, the White House — which always prefers fear-mongering to serious debate — accused Democrats of undermining the troops. Even Defense Secretary Robert Gates got into the act, threatening to direct the Army and Marine Corps to begin developing plans to lay off employees and terminate contracts next year unless Congress approves new funding within days.

Lawmakers, regardless of party, and the American people will always stand behind the brave men and women in the armed forces. Congress has already approved some $800 billion in funding since Sept. 11, 2001, for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. But that hardly measures the full cost in blood and treasure. More than 800 troops have been killed in Iraq in 2007 alone, making it the deadliest year yet for the American military there. Read the whole story
I heard threats of base closings and cut backs and it reminded me of the last time the chief idiot played this game. Supposedly it was not Political but you know damn well it was and it will be this time too to teach a lesson to those that voted against him. Look at the chief idiots response then look at what he did 2 years ago!
I had the ill fortune of being in the car this morning when the chief idiots address came on this morning chastising the Democrats for making him be responsible and I hope this time they stick to their guns. Senate Republicans on Friday blocked a Democratic bill that sought to link $50 billion in additional war funding to the goal of withdrawing American combat troops from Iraq by the end of next year. And Senate Democrats blocked a Republican bill that would have allocated $70 billion to the war without conditions.

They went on vacation instead. I heard Bush threatening tax increases on the middle class because of Democrats. Since when does he care about the middle class he has purposely been destroying since he got in office. I am so sick of this idiots games just so he can get his way on continue his wars. As I was driving I decided to look at the last time he pulled his crap on the military to get his way. It was sickening to see just one example of the chief babies tactics of I am going to hold my breath until you give me what I want! look at what Iraq war veteran John Bruhns said. It is right on
Anyway, It's sickening, remember this? 10/28/05 Update! A Little more time for the Apolitical Political Bush Base Closings
With the proposed base closings due to be a reality in mid November I thought it was time to just remind us all how crooked these closings were and still are. In light of what is happening right now with the Rove's investigation and implication of Cheney you know the President was involved and as in this situation nothing period gets done without his knowledge or okay and he knows the truth none of us ever will. Right from the get go we discussed the proposed Military base closings. In one of our discussions we talked about the fact that telling the public they had nothing at all to do with Politics was totally false and erroneous.

Bush as we all know , does nothing at all unless it is part of his political game. So once again this master of deception was saying what we wanted to hear and playing his Political game. The facts right off the bat told us again the opposite of what he was saying. We all know this is standard fare for him. The States that came out in favor of him in the 2nd election did well with the proposed Base closings. The bases that came out against him took the biggest hits during the proposed closings. It didn't matter if the bases were exemplary or vital to our military mission. California took a big hit because republican Governor Arnold could not deliver the State for the President. Massachusetts took a hit for the same reason.

Otis in Massachusetts is where the fighters that responded on 9/11 came from. It is one of the best reserve bases in the Nation. He wanted to put all our B1's in one place in his brother's State. That makes good sense. The Bible Belt States did well under the proposed closings. He said as far as he is concerned he thinks the proposals should be final. Political, naw! One and one still equals two as far as I know.
There are many inequities in these proposals. Many we will never know unless some disgruntled individual comes forth with the truth. Regardless of what Mr. say one thing and do another says. He keeps tight reign over what happens in his misadministration. That is precisely why it is so screwed up. Even though he would have us believe he has ne control over most of what happens in Washington and the Pentagon in particular, you know nothing can be further from the truth.

As we all know he is a master political game player. It is his behind the back club to be used against anyone he perceives as having done him wrong. He does a lousy job of disguising this fact. In addition to all his inequities in his administration and in these proposals we can now add this one. Now we are hearing that the money supposedly saved from these closings was false. It was purposely contrived in order to inflate the supposed savings. Why should we be surprised to find the 9 member panel doing the investigation has found the savings inflated by 30 billion?

How much did it cost us this time to find out we were lied to again? I know, just another little oversight. This is standard fare for this administration as we all know. As in all the other instances he will get away with this one too. Someone else's fault not mine, just another victim of circumstances. The poor picked on guy. He suffers from the Rodney Dangerfield Syndrome. He gets no respect. You have to wonder how deep the rot will go in this case too when the truth is eventually to some degree known and what if any the real savings after all was said and done really were.Read more

This has been going on from the getgo How much more of this idiots childish lies can we take?

Bush Double standard on Bonds, another horrific example of Bush abuse of wounded vets,last nights debate, we must focus on one thing!

I just heard of a war Vet who died in the VA recently and we were responsible for killing him when Iraq couldn't. They had a few other examples. That highlights that part of this story. I am sick of the damn excuses. I had a picture up but rethought it because I felt for the sufferer at the hands of the VA. I am sick of the problems many Iraq Veterans are encountering in trying to get care despite what we are ignorantly told and it is not only a few.

Bush Double standard on Bonds, another horrific example of Bush abuse of wounded vets,last nights debate, we must focus on one thing: Take our America back!

Knowing the Obstruction of justice that goes on every day in Bush's misadministration and gets away with I was once again taken aback by his misdirected idea of justice to fit his need. I found it disturbingly two faced and once again double standard for the chief idiot to pass judgment on Barry Bonds indictment on Obstruction of Justice and Perjury. Federal prosecutors Thursday accused baseball's reigning home-run king of using steroids and lying to a grand jury about it during a probe into the use of performance-enhancing drugs in professional sports.

A federal grand jury in San Francisco indicted seven-time National League MVP Barry Bonds on four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice, the Justice Department announced. Bonds, 43, repeatedly denied he had knowingly taken banned substances during his December 2003 testimony to an earlier grand jury investigating the distribution of steroids by a San Francisco-area laboratory.

Even the White House is weighing in on the indictment of baseball slugger Barry Bonds, calling it a "sad day for baseball." A spokesman says President Bush is "very disappointed" to hear the news. Bonds was indicted yesterday by a grand jury for perjury and obstruction of justice.They supposedly are worried about getting the truth out to the public, Since when?

Perjury and obstruction of Justice is the hallmark of the Bush Mis-Administration and I have never heard of anything but support for it coming from him. When Scooter Libby was indicted on multiple counts of Obstruction of Justice and perjury Bush let him off the hook and said he was a good man. What? Why isn't he concerned about the Black eye he and his Mis-administration have given our Government and the country. I happen to agree with him on Bonds but he has no room to criticize anyone else. The idiot has set the low standard. Obstruction of Justice! What about Rove, Cheney, Bush, Rice, Gonzo, everyone else in this Mis-Administration. They may all get Presidential protection but they are to a person guilty.

Plus, I was horrified when I saw another story this morning about a hero whose nightmare I have been following. It bothered me greatly as we just talked about the abuse of our soldiers again yesterday as bush continues to screw them over while saying how much he cares about them. what's new? Anyway:
Ty Ziegel peers from beneath his Marine Corps baseball cap, his once boyish face burned beyond recognition by a suicide bomber's attack in Iraq just three days before Christmas 2004. He lost part of his skull in the blast and part of his brain was damaged. Half of his left arm was amputated and some of the fingers were blown off his right hand. Ziegel, a 25-year-old Marine sergeant, knew the dangers of war when he was deployed for his second tour in Iraq. But he didn't expect a new battle when he returned home as a wounded warrior: a fight with the Department of Veterans Affairs.

"Sometimes, you get lost in the system," he told CNN. "I feel like a Social Security number. I don't feel like Tyler Ziegel." His story is one example of how medical advances in the battlefield have outpaced the home front. Many wounded veterans return home feeling that the VA system, specifically its 62-year-old disability ratings system, has failed them.
"The VA system is not ready, and they simply don't have time to catch up," Tammy Duckworth -- herself a wounded veteran who heads up the Illinois Department of Veteran Affairs -- told the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee in March. VA Acting Secretary Gordon Mansfield said cases like Ziegel's are rare -- that the majority of veterans are moving through the process and "being taken care of." He also said most veterans are fairly compensated. Read more on the 28,500 wounded in Iraq
I am disgusted! Examples like Ty's are not rare and they should be nonexistent. It is just one example of Bush's lack of concern as he follows his own path! I am sick of hearing the stupid excuse the VA is not ready and doesn't have time to catch up. BS, it has had 5 years. Employ an Army if you need to but get it done. Stop the lying, we owe it to them!
Lastly, last nights useless pissing contest in Nevada was grossly misdirected and focused on the nominees attacking each other and their proposals on how to fix the countries ills but not the real problems. read the wasted mudslinging and games
* We must get rid of these Republican idiots! We are not going to do it playing childish cute games. There is only one issue. There is only one thing we have to focus on. There is only one point to hammer home and no one mentions it, runs on it, or is smart enough to highlight it. Instead they play standard childish Political games and it will be to ours and the countries demise. We have to run on undoing all of Bush's damage to our America so he could set up his new America. He needed to widen the gap between the wealthy and the rest of us and he has. We continuously exhort the fact that the middle class's plight continues to worsen and the help to those that need it has decreased under Bush. Healthcare has worsened. Everything has worsened for average Americans and on purpose under Bush as corporations and the affluent have been his only priority.

**Why does no one point out in every single category how much worse things are under Bush than they were before this nightmare happened. We have all the figures. there are no games needed just use the facts before and after Bush. Just say I want to give we the people's America back to them. I want to undo all the damage Bush has done to America. I want to rebuild the successful America we have spent generations to build for all Americans and Bush has destroyed in a few short years. I think we can rebuild the mess Bush has made of our America. The world I am afraid is another story as he has awakened nationalist fervor around the world that as we see in Pakistan will not be quelled or placated and we will be forced to react to it want to or not. Knowing this we must get back into office and put America back in order so we can deal with the terrible future Bush has set in motion for us and the world.
