President Bush went on the offense yesterday 1/23/06 as usual. He insisted he would stay on the offensive in the war against terrorists. As if that makes him special or something? Anyone of either party would do the same thing in light of the world atmosphere today. He said he would continue to use every tool available to him in order to protect the American people. Again this is nothing special because anyone of either party would do the same thing. Of course he is though referring to the spying on of Americans. It isn’t the use of the tools it’s the misuse of the tools we have to be concerned about with President Bush. He again defended his decision to invade Iraq and take the fight to the enemy. I thought WMD was his first reason for attacking. He didn’t take the fight to the enemy. In Iraq he created the enemy. He is still creating new insurgents with his refusal to think, adapt, and overcome. He insists instead on telegraphing his intentions by insisting on staying the course and creating new insurgents.
He defended using the NSA to eavesdrop on Al Quaeda to protect us and only calls from outside the U.S. He forgot to mention we are having in country calls rerouted outside the U.S. then back in so we could legally justify monitoring them. He ridiculously says that if a terrorist is making a phone call too the U.S. he wants to know why? No kidding he is good! Again I will say it is his misuse of any power that concerns many of us. He said in the war on terror we need good intelligence. Again I will say intelligence good or bad is useless if the President fails to act on it responsibly as he does continually. He said our future depends on good intelligence services. Again he failed to mention its how you utilize them that’s important. It’s funny he is Johnny on the spot with terrorism questions. The only question he had trouble answering was by a student wanting to know why he cut federal public education funds. after much hemming, hawing, double speak, and backpeddling he managed to answer the question and escape speaking the truth. He plays verbal games but manages to somehow get the public on his side in regards to terrorism and the Iraq war, war is the Republican forte even if as in Iraq, he created it himself.
He then spoke about how important the Patriot act was. He still insists as he does with his tax cuts for the rich, that they be made permanent and now. I think congress made a wise move by making the last extension short and temporary. It should continue to be reviewed and closely scrutinized. Especially knowing the Presidents propensity to do whatever he wants. Any potentially harmful tool in his hands is a scary thought. It isn’t the Patriot act as much as the Presidents misuse of it that is of prime concern to many of us.
I believe that like John Kerry it is possible to protect America while still protecting the Constitution. Neither is being done adequately as many of us believe today. He insists Saddam had to go. Yes but only so he could fight his created insurgents and have a good issue to campaign on. He said Saddam was an immediate threat and had to go because he was firing at our planes in his country of Iraq. What? Every ridiculous excuse to justify his misact ions too many to list here, was obvious to an unbiased thinking man and full of holes. Myself, just looking at him makes me not trust what he says. Tell me what you think?

New Orleans, God, Chocolate, and Facts
In light of an article I saw in the NY Times I thought it appropriate to resurrect a blog I posted 9/25/05 in order to put a couple recent stories into perspective. To start with, it was surprising to me to find out that New Orleans even had a levee board especially in light of the damage incurred. You would have thought their job would be to secure the levees. We know now how sad a state of repair some of them were in. Instead they established an Airport and a marina. They also played a role in establishing a floating casino, top of the line fibre optic system, and spent 2.4 million on a Mardis Gras fountain and left the 9th street levee in the poorer area of the city in particular in a state of disrepair. This was all nice for businesses and the elite whose areas suffered relatively light damage.
The poor did suffer the brunt of Katrina and Rita. The devestation to these people in the first place occurred because of criminal neglect by authorities and local officials on every level. I contended that this natural disaster was allowed to clean out New Orleans of what the elite thought of as undesirable elements and failed for years to do it themselves. Now the are largely out with many choosing to stay out. I contended that the wealthy elite, largely white, and the politicians will now be able to rebuild for their own interests.
We thought New Orleans might now become a Republican city. This all seemed a distinct possibility especially with the French Quarter, the Convention Center, and the Garden District, were all largely high and dry and largely intact. It seemed obvious that the poor sections were now cleaned out and the housing projects gone compliments of Mother Nature and not God as Mayor Nagin ridiculously stated, and supposedly not from any design of mans. Along with these areas went much of Mayor Nagin's ill mentioned chocolate aspect of New Orleans. Enough of the poor and the blacks if you will, will be back for whatever reason primarily to service the needs of industries, the wealty elite and politicians, and various business interests. now reading the story in the NY Times that New Orleans might be rebuilt whiter and smaller it looks like the thoughts expressed last September might have been right on target.

Republicans fear Underhanded tactics by Republicans??
I know this is a touch button issue for many of you but here it is. This is a telling story to me as far as what the powers to be will do in order too get their way. It is pretty bad when in this instance you have Republicans fearing the underhanded tactics of their own party. Whoa!
It’s pretty bad when you have to fear the underhanded tactics of your own party. They should know the Presidents and Senates underhanded tactics. They’re just not used to having them turned on them. He will stop at nothing even burning those of his own party. To get what he wants.
I’ll explain the game real quick if it is needed. The President was given what he wanted and needed by keeping the borders insecure for his Necessary illegal immigrants, the clamping down of the lower classes, and supporting his many inept policies. Concern over border insecurity has hit the critical stage with much of the public.
Now that election season is upon us they are doing the right thing for them and their reelection not you. It is now President Bush’s responsibility to come through for them while still getting what he wants which as you know is a guest worker program and security for his illegal immigrants.
Doing the right thing and securing the Borders is not what he really wants. He continues to prove this by looking for ways to protect illegal immigrants and implement worker programs for them along with hopefully eventual citizenship. We do need migrant workers and immigrants but they should be controlled workers and immigrants.
So here we are you give me what I want which is a guest worker program and I’ll give you what you want and need for reelection which is Border Security.
Bay Buchanan and members of her committee are planning to take action. These concerned Republicans fear that Senators tied by big business interests will succeed in their efforts to pass guest worker programs into law. With the Presidents blessing and prompting they will succeed.
We have been saying this for years now if you haven’t found out the hard way yet, we the people do not matter. These Republicans work for the fundamentalists and other special interests that paid for and got them elected. They will force this on the American people like everything else because their corporate friends matter not the average American.
President Bush and his protégés will be underhanded in getting guest worker programs passed. As in every other instance he will get his way no matter who he has to step on. Just call him Karl Rove’s and protect his illegal immigrants he’ll be happy with that.

Bush's 3D political teacher Speaks Out(of line!)
Speaking of playing political games we now have his master and teacher of 3D Politics who to no surprise is under indictment himself for his once denied role in Plamegate. Which you know was the uncovering of an undercover agent that of course like everything else with this administration no one had anything to do with. President Bush’s teacher of 3D (deceitful, deceptive, divisive politics spoke on CNN and proved he is the master of deception.
He didn’t like the questioning during the Alito hearings. Myself, I don’t think they were serious or pointed enough. He accused Democratic Senators of being small minded and mean spirited. That’s a self description of President Bush himself, and many republican leaders, if we ever heard one. He used the old, tired, false, and ignorant, statement that Democrats have a pre 9/11 view of the world and the republicans have a post 9/11 view of the world. That makes Roves wrong again not the Democrats. Like the president he refuses to deal with the situation in Iraq and anywhere else and insists on staying the unthinking non adaptive line of staying the course.
He warned republicans not to fall prey to the corruptive nature of power as we know he did. He called the GOP’s progress in recent years a stunning Political achievement. Like many of you I agree but not for the same reasons. He also said this so called success is also a cautionary tale of what happens to a dominant party. He of course was decrying the democrats but his party has already fallen prey to the entitlement mentality. He said Republicans should learn from the failures of others. I say they can stand to learn a lot more from their own failures.
He doesn’t want ethics concerns to hurt his party. Like many of you I can only hope it is too late for that thin veil. Republican Party chairman Mehlman said that one of the oldest lessons of history is that power corrupts and most of us can agree they are a prime example. Mr. Roves still thinks that protecting America and fighting terrorism are the Republican strong points.
If we have learned anything we know that is not true and 3D politics are their only strong point. He told the tired old lie that Republicans understand the ruthless enemy and the threat they pose and the same is not true for the Democrats, another falsehood. He accused the Democrats of opposing the Patriot Act.
It isn’t the Patriot Act they oppose it is the president and the way he insists on misusing the responsibilities that come with it. President Bush’s teacher is dirty, underhanded, and deceitful. A little truth would be nice but will not be heard. Mr. Rove’s accuses the Democrats of being demeaning and small minded, he better look in the mirror. People have begun to see the truth.

todays Observation: I Thought Bush said Bin Laden didn't matter!
I tried to find what I had written the last time the Bush Administration said thet Bin Laden didn't matter any more. I failed to find it but we all know that in order to downplay our inability to find Bin laden or any of the other leaders scott McClellan, Bush,Cheney, Rumsfeld, they all say bin Ladeen no longer matters because he is not in charge and has to stay under ground. Hearing from Bin Laden and seeing our reaction clearly shows that just by his very being, he does matter. McClellan said Bin Laden is clearly on the run, okay so what?
Cheney's input to the tape from Bin Laden and his threat to attack the U.S. when they are ready was just that the tape should serve as a good reminder that a serious threat to the U.S. does remain. I thought Bin Laden's influence had wained and he dodn't matter? all along Bush and Cheney have been bragging that they and the Patriot Act were the reason we have not experienced another attack since 9/11. While all along we have been saying it was because al quaeda or whatever you want to call these Islamists, are not yet ready.
Right or wrong Bin Laden took the wind out of Bush's sails by announcing this is the reason and nothing else and when they are ready it will happen. Bin Laden's communication at this time is for two reasons. It serves to counter bush's false bravedo. It also proves that the so called terrorists were hurt during the recent airstrike in Pakistan. The attack is purported to have killed at least 4 leading Al Quaeda figures including their master bomb maker. they have been hurt but are not out. Bin Laden's suggestion of a possible cease fire is proof of that. As we all know, that is impossible and McClellan's statement that we do not negotiate with terrorists we take them out, could have been said by either party. A cease fire I think we could all agree, would benefit the so called terrorists and their refitting and would only be to our detriment. It doesn't take a Republican to realize that.

How can Rumsfeld be so Stupid?
Yesterday we were wondering what could Ahmadinejad be thinking? Today we have to wonder just how could Rummy be so stupid? It makes sense I guess that he would take exception to Iran's rhetoric against Israel, and much of their incessant nonsensical diatribe. However, to suggest that the U.S. military has the resources to do something about Iran if it becomes necessary? Is this guy brain dead? He compared ignoring Ahmadinejad to ignoring the threats of Lenin and Hitler. Okay, he might have a point there. However doesn't he understand what he and Bush has done to America and our future military ability in responding to anything at all let alone deal with the results of attacking Iran? We could expect less help than we got in Iraq and he should at least think about that. The question was asked , while we are fighting a war in Iraq and Afghanistan could we handle a war in Iran if it came to that? He replied Yes we could.
He is known for his incessant speech but what the hell is a force sizing construct that we feel good about? Does he forget too that we are still in the Balkans, the Phillipines, and God knows where else? doesn't he remember that it was the military that pulled out Bush's chestnuts after Katrina, Rita, and probably dozens of other natural disasters this last year alone? Does he forget that besides Bush's ineptitude troops that could have responded instantly were in Iraq and Afghanistan? He was asked whether the world could afford to let Iran have a nuclear bomb? His asanine answer, time will tell. Time will tell, first I thought the question was overstepping the issue. I know we don't trust their real nuclear ampitions but I though we wanted to keep nuclear capabilities out of their hands at all. Also isn't trusting Iran with a nuclear bomb a bit like trusting Jack the Ripper with a knife? Time will tell what is that?
Many of us have known from the beginning of the Bush escapades, the spending of his nonexistant Political capital, and his outsourcing of his political divisivness and Christian fundamentalism around the world, that their would be a definite return of the draft if he continued with his ineptitude. Bush, Rummy, and the likes, are still insisting this will not be necessary. Just where do they think the necessary troops and hardware are going to come from? Can someone, anyone tell me? Short of dropping a nuclear bomb on Iran and starting if it isn't already WW3, which should be out of the question, how can Rummy be so stupid?

Iran holding a Holocaust Conference, what are they up to with this?
As you know, Iran has now announced they will be holding a conference on the Jewish Holocaust. In light of the fact that their President has openly advocated that Israel be erased from the planet. In light of the fact that they have openly declared the attempted extermination of Jews by the Nazi's in WW2 to be a myth. In light of the fact that Ahmadinejad has advocated the movement of Israel to someplace in Europe if the Europeans really believed they should have a country. Ahmadinejad has declared the myth of jewish genocide was the pretext of forming israel and has been placed above God, religion, and prophets. With the EU3 (Britain, Germany, and France) along with at the least the U.S. trying to prevent their nuclear ambitions from proceeding to what appears to be a destructive end. you have to wonder just exactly are they trying to do now?
Iran is attempting to rewrite the history of the holocaust. can this be for real? can anyone really believed none of that really happened? what is their ulterior motive? the timing of this conference is perfect but for what? Iran is saying they are of the opinion that it is useful and necessary to hold a conference on the attempted Jewish genocide during WW2 where revisionists(those that believe the holocaust to be a myth) can freely express their opinions. just why eludes me?
This conference has to be only to give the EU3 a who just happened to be involved on one side or the other of the attempted genocide, the formation of Israel, and now the attempt to keep nuclear capabilities out of the hands of Iran? Maybe it is simply to build anti E.U. and U.S. sentiment to gain Muslim and Iranian public support for their nuclear efforts? What else can this conference possibly be about or achieve? Can someone please tell me? Having mulled this over for 4 days now I still can't figure this one out. I am curious and I'm sure you all have your own constructive thoughts.

The Bush Doctrine: A Doctrine O fact/President Bush Uncovered
Due to an interest on the subject yesterdayin light of Gore's speech here is a reprint of an article formulated aftes 9/11,written 2 years ago, and still can't get circulated. You will be scared. Please feel free to open your dictionaries. What strikes us as the Presidents ignorance of society, its classes and the world is not that at all. All the realities of what he is doing to us and the world are going to hit you right in the face. It will all make absolute and total sense. One word damn it right under our noses the whole time too. What is worse is that it is described all too starkly right in our dictionaries. Hold on here it is. NIHILISM. *2 Ethics-rejection of all distinctions in moral value, constituting a willingness to refute all previous moral theories. *3-The belief that destruction of existing Political or social institutions is necessary to ensure future improvement. this Doctrine was first used by the Russians in the mid 19th century. Damn right under our noses. If that doesn’t shake you nothing will? The other four versions of this word especially the two action versions which you all know will scare the hell out of you when you realize what they are. This is fact and it is doctrine, it is dictionaried, and it is indeed fact. We as the lower classes better move fast. This doctrine is followed only in order to replace existing societies and Governments and President Bush as we can all attest to is well on his way.
First he has to finish breaking down existing societies and Government rule. As you all are experiencing his new policies every day you know that in fact he is well under way. He is almost complete in his bringing down of the lower classes and the Democratic Party. Hopefully this will wake up the country quick enough to prevent the Republicans from invoking the nuclear option in every aspect of our ggovernment which so far has been prevented. There has got a be an awakening as to what the ruling Republican Party is up to and we are hearing it now but it is merely brushed off as coming from disgruntled Democrats. They have good reason to be suspect, if further erosion is allowed we are in trouble. If this is allowed it will complete the Republican choke hold on the country. Regardless of your Political persuasion this is our country. For our own good as Americans we can not allow this to happen if we can help it. We cannot allow him to emplace his idea of a society and a Government. In case any one has been sleeping we are all aware how good his plan is for the illegal immigrant. He needs them to work and feed his idea for society. He needs them in order to fully implement his plan for our country. He continues the illusion of concern. He is giving the illusion that he is concerned about illegal aliens obtaining American drivers licenses. He says he is in favor of and is passing the National I.D. Act. Do not be fooled once again. He plans on giving millions of them legal status anyway remember? All this too is obvious now that he has been uncovered. Now we have to act accordingly.
His plan for society is horrible for the lower classes as you are all experiencing first hand. You see fist hand how every single day he continues to tighten the noose around the lower classes and furthers the cause of the elite. He only needs the lower classes for their taxes. They are needed to fund his illegal immigrants in order to complete his plan. The illegal immigrants are necessary in order for him to fully implement his plan his Governmental system and have it work according to his plan. It all makes sense now that you hear the unbiased truth doesn’t it?
He needs the taxes of the lower classes in order to fund his social security program for the elite. He needs the lower classes in order to fund all the negative results of taking care of the rich and you are just seeing the beginning of it. He is letting the elite corporations and companies off the hook. Once again you the lower classes are going to be left footing the bill with your taxes. The tax funded Federal systems can not take much more before they are overburdened to the point of failure. This too is necessary for his planned society to be implemented. Planned obsolescence, you have to wonder what if anything he plans on replacing it with.
The wealthy and the Christian Right Republicans as you are seeing will be the only benefactors of his entire plan for society. Of course when this is mentioned to him he will deny everything, laugh it off, say it is merely speculation, and continue with his plan. It is indeed sadly enough for us in the trenches of society, undeniable fact. He falsely again makes you think the rich are going to be paying their share of his proposals. It is again an illusion. You are in fact being hood winked and BUSHWACKED. He is in fact giving the wealthy back hundreds of billions of their so called contribution, back to them. He very wisely chooses to let you forget about this little fact. His sliding benefits proposal for his elitist social security program is going to slide all the way through the middle classes. All the while he is touting the wealthy’s contribution to his plans he is giving them back much of their so called contribution.
This is all fact. It is in fact doctrine. It is in fact in the dictionary. He is in fact saying one thing and doing another as he likes to accuse everyone else of doing. He is in fact doing this right under our very noses. As you all know, he is now outsourcing his idea of Political divisiveness. This is in fact being done to spread his idea of society and Government around the world wherever he can get a foot hold. The negative repercussions of this are just beginning to rear their ugly head. It will in fact end as world wide pandemonium. It is a fact that this too as part of his plan for the world. Watch Iraq and the Middle East closely. This too in fact is just the beginning of their breakdown.
*Unbelievably what the President is doing to our country and what is happening in every situation around the world today can be summed up in one word. This is unbelievable. 40 years of thought and theory and it can all be summed up in just one word? You have to look this up in my life long Bible, the dictionary. Personally I have never heard this word in the first three forms of it. However the fourth is scarily familiar to the whole world. It is exactly where we are headed if we do not smarten up real quick.
*Nihil
*Nihility
*Nihilism
**annihilate
***Annihilation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*nihil-nothing, a thing of no value
Annihilate-to destroy completely, wipe out, render void, abolish wipe out completely, render helpless, and overwhelm completely, Bush’s middle class policy.
*Nihilism 1. A Doctrine that nothing exists is knowable. Or can be communicated. 2. Ethics-rejection of all distinctions in moral value, constituting a willingness to refute all previous moral theories. 3. The belief that destruction of existing political or social institutions is necessary to insure future improvement.
*Annihilation-Total nothingness, utter destruction, Planned or not this is well underway as far as the Middle Class is concerned.
*Nihility-Non existence, nothingness, this is the final step in the process and if we are going to turn this ship around we better do it before it is too late.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***There are then two schools of thought, if he is not purposely trying to bring about the Christian idea of the end of the world, he better turn the ship around because it will happen, planned or not under this program. This is fact not theory

*Unbelievably what the President is doing to our country and what is happening in every situation around the world today can be summed up in one word. This is unbelievable. 40 years of thought and theory and it can all be summed up in just one word? You have to look this up in my life long Bible, the dictionary. Personally I have never heard this word in the first three forms of it. However the fourth is scarily familiar to the whole world. It is exactly where we are headed if we do not smarten up real quick.
*Nihil
*Nihility
*Nihilism
**annihilate
***Annihilation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*nihil-nothing, a thing of no value
Annihilate-to destroy completely, wipe out, render void, abolish wipe out completely, render helpless, and overwhelm completely, Bush’s middle class policy.
*Nihilism 1. A Doctrine that nothing exists is knowable. Or can be communicated. 2. Ethics-rejection of all distinctions in moral value, constituting a willingness to refute all previous moral theories. 3. The belief that destruction of existing political or social institutions is necessary to insure future improvement.
*Annihilation-Total nothingness, utter destruction, Planned or not this is well underway as far as the Middle Class is concerned.
*Nihility-Non existence, nothingness, this is the final step in the process and if we are going to turn this ship around we better do it before it is too late.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***There are then two schools of thought, if he is not purposely trying to bring about the Christian idea of the end of the world, he better turn the ship around because it will happen, planned or not under this program. This is fact not theory

Consequences of Alito's confirmation will be serious business!
With Mr. Alito being called even by the Republican Majority for choice as being out of step with mainstream Americans you know that is why the President wants him. This final day of hearings was a waste of breath time and money. His confirmation is a foregone conclusion and average americans should be worried.
Let’s just take a minute to discuss the consequences of the political circus we called Alito’s confirmation hearings. As we witnessed, these hearings appeared to be a foregone conclusion and a political forum and sideshow. With the importance of the task at hand I think the PR should have been done away with. At least the issues could have been debated seriously even if his confirmation is a foregone conclusion. The expected confirmation of judge Alito to the Supreme Court will make him the decisive vote in several upcoming cases that are very important to averages Americans.
He will have an immediate impact in the areas of abortion, religion, and the death penalty, issues important to most of us. With election campaigns, executive power, and the environment being big issues at the moment, his confirmation will set the stage for big changes in these areas too. President Bush’s nominee of like mind could tip the balance to the Right and hopefully not the extreme right on maybe a dozen important issues on which the Justices have been traditionally closely split. With that said I don’t think Mr. Alito will be voting in the same direction as Sandra Day O’Connor would have. Average Americans do indeed have a lot to be concerned about with Mr. Alito’s confirmation.

We're overreacting? can that be possible with Iran?
President Bush has recently declared Iran to be a grave threat to world security. With 90 fighter bombers now within striking distance of Iran the President better be prepared to use them because we will be taken to task. We know Iran is a threat to the world but what happened to us not being the world’s policemen? We will do this if need be. And ground troops will be necessary in the end. Iran will also have the unity of its youth and the majority of its citizens against the west that has heretofore eluded them.
After 3 years and with tensions continuing to ratchet up between much of the so called civilized world and Iran we now have Iran trying to buy more time for their nuclear research , fuel enrichment program, and their various known and unknown nuclear activities. The other day Iran accused us of being back in the medieval period. Yester day that was changed to being accused of being in the Dark Ages. Today the U.S. and its supposed allies against a nuclear Iran are being accused of scientific apartheid and overreacting.
Iran is getting desperate in their refusal to cooperate and their desire to finish their nuclear capabilities before action is taken against them. Okay so it is scientific apartheid. Iran has shown for the safety of the world that it is necessary. With Iran’s professed desire to see the west destroyed, Israel wiped off the planet, and their insistence on nuclear testing, uranium enrichment, their refusal to cooperate, and their expressed desire to spread nuclear knowledge throughout very volatile Islam, just how can you over react to Iran’s actions as Iran claims?

Todays fact: The Iran situation is coming to a head!
It seems that we are discussing Iran routinely with their incessant verbal ignorance, their insistence on proliferating nuclear knowledge throughout Islam, and their insistence on continuing their own nuclear programs. I once thought it was up to Israel to deal with Iran. Now I’m not to sure. I once thought it looked like a setup with Iran, china, and Russia, against the U.S. and its interest. That’s something else I don’t know about ant more. I also did a blog asserting that Iran was attempting to start WW 3 believing that with the superpowers occupied they would steal power in the Middle East. That too is in question in my mind.
We know Ahmadinejad has many detractors in Iran as President Bush does in the U.S. however once Iran is attacked the citizens will unite as we did after 9/11, not for the man but the cause. 2006 is only bringing a ratcheting up of Iran’s official rhetoric against Israel and also with its insistence on enriching nuclear fuel and possessing so called peaceful nuclear technology. They continue to ignore protests against their nuclear programs. They claim our concerns are medieval. Knowing the way Islam was at that time maybe they should be. Their ignorance of the E.U.’s threat to refer them to the Security Council is nothing new.
What is new is the U.S. has at least the ear of Russia and China. Personally when push comes to shove you have to wonder who they will side with in the end. With the threatened referral of Iran to the Security Council they have merely threatened to block U.N. inspections of their nuclear facilities which is not a good thing. All countries should have the right to use nuclear power as it might benefit the world if handled responsibly. However not with Iran who wants Israel and the west destroyed. I feel that the recent proclamation by an Israeli general that that Iran’s nuclear program can be destroyed is in many respects counter productive.
As we have learned in the past it doesn’t take much to give President Bush an artificial sense of optimism. In the end it seems the job of neutralizing Iran’s nuclear programs seems largely to be left to the U.S. president bush has recently declared Iran to be a grave threat to world security. With 90 fighter bombers now within striking distance of Iran the President better be prepared to use them because we will be taken to task. We know Iran is a threat to the world but what happened to us not being the world’s policemen? We will do this if need be. And ground troops will be necessary in the end.

Fact:Bush turns up the ignorance to get his way in Iraq!
As the president continues to speak up his Iraq ineptitude he is only increasing his incessant tirade against those that voice dissent to his ineptitude calling everyone that disagrees with his demonstrated lack of sense defeatist. He ridiculously equates questioning his lack of thought process with giving incentive and comfort to insurgents.
What does he think his insistence on staying the course is doing? He is trying to use this as a wedge issue to hopefully get people to vote for the corrupt Republicans this fall. He’s saying that if the Democrats don’t stop questioning his motives then they may suffer at the ballot box in November. His ineptitude is in reality giving more incentive and comfort to insurgents than any dissention voiced by those that rightly question the Presidents lack of direction in the war in Iraq. Democrats say the President should heed his own advice and well he should.
Both parties should smarten up, drop the political games at least until we take care if the situation in Iraq, and play their games later. President Bush urges campaigning Politicians (code for democrats), to conduct the Iraq debate responsibly while at the same time he refuses to and steps up the ignorance and arrogance instead. He said he welcomes honest criticism while nothing could be further from the truth and he just ignores it anyway.
He did go into Iraq under false pretenses and that is from an average citizen and not a Democrat. There is now way he will win in Iraq as he thinks of a win and that too is from an average American and not Howard Dean. We know he did not attack Iraq because of Israel or oil. However we do know he misled us and that is an inescapable fact. Just think about all the facts that have leaked out in the Downing Street Memo, Operation Able Danger, and a multitude of other obvious cover up’s and half truths that have come to light so far.
I have to agree with the Democrats here that President Bush has no right trying to say what can be discussed and what can’t. Patriotic Americans will continue to ask the tough questions as they should for the soldiers, regular citizens, and America as a whole. That makes those that question the Presidents misdirection realists not defeatist as the president wants them to appear as in order to serve his own purposes. The Presidents latest in a series of speeches designed to rally support around his lack of direction in Iraq is more of the same stay the course poor me speech only he is purposely more adamant and arrogant attempting to turn the people on the Democrats. Once again he is guilty of playing the games he is telling everyone else they can’t. What say you?

Todays Fact:Alito will be nominated and we are in Trouble!
Let us take a few minutes and discuss the nomination of Sam Alito to replace Sandrah Day O’Connor on the Supreme Court. In October of last year I did a diary in which I suggested that the nomination of Miers for this position was a setup from the get go. He gets his way no matter how underhanded he has to be to get it as we all witness. He knew that both conservatives and Liberals would be against her. Poor President Bush he’s forced to go with Mr. Alito who he wanted in the first place. He’s forced to go with a true Conservative in his own frame of mind.
I don’t know if anyone else noticed this but the Republicans have without saying it shown that Miers was a ruse and a farce. With Alito and John Roberts the President will have his team in place to interpret the Constitution as he thinks it should be. With Miers defeat via withdrawal the President was pretty much guaranteed Mr. Alito’s nomination. Threat of a filibuster is of course being heard but it will not happen. Conservative republicans will have their way. Senator Graham announced President Bush’s intention from the start by saying he promised well seasoned well experienced nominees both of which we know Miers was not.
Like John Roberts Alito is what the president said he wanted in the first place. In addition he has a long troubling history if decisions detrimental to average Americans. He is both commended and criticized for answering all questions while saying nothing. He will continue to answer nothing honestly and he knows how to get his way. He is of the same frame of mind as the president. He is his man, he will get in, and we are in trouble.
Yesterdays hearings were very contentious. With Senator Specter’s arrogant ignorant tirade against Senator Kennedy’s remarks if there was any question before it became obvious that Mr. Alito is and will continue to be railroaded through. Today is the 4th and final day of questioning. With Mr. Alito being called even by the Republican Majority for choice as being out of step with mainstream Americans you know that is why the President wants him. This final day is a waste of breath time and money. His nomination is a foregone conclusion.

Who does better know America?Belafonte, John Gibson or?
I'm sure most of us agree that it is terrible to turn on the TV and hear obviously biased incorrect political diatribe being expressed. As we have said in the past, it plays good to your audience but serves no public service. It does however do a disservice to themselves and the society they supposedly know and care about. In this case I noticed on biased fox news that john Gibson's show last night was titled who knows America Better Belafonte or me? The answer is obviously neither.
First off that isn't the question. The question is who speaks the truth Belafonte or Gibson and the answer is again neither. Gibson pleasured himself in doing nothing but stupidly demeaning Belafonte just making fun of him. Let's hear some truth here. Belafonte called President Bush the greatest terrorist in the world and Gibson suggested that statement might be treasonous. Voicing the truth is not treasonous and many of us think the President is our biggest problem not the terrorist. I do agree with Gibson that it was wrong for Belafonte to say millions of Americans agree with Chavez's revolution. I can't say I care one way or the other but some of you but not millions do agree with Belafonte.
My fault is with the fact that neither side voices the truth, knows, or represents what we the people feel and believe. Gibson goes on to show his chasm of reality as to average Americans. He said we are too busy stuffing our 401(k) accounts. He said we are too busy financing our new cars, houses, and going on vacation to care about Chavez. I think most of the lower classes are too busy reeling from what the president continues to do to them and keeping themselves afloat period. Gibson was wrong again in stating that many of us benefit from corporations so we like them. Get real John! He finished off his proof that he knows nothing about America by stating that Chavez and Belafonte should sell their revolution somewhere else. I say that Gibson should be the one to take his revolution elsewhere. What do you think?

Todays Fact: Bush's unity in Iraq will happen against us!
Bush continues to insist our economy is going great guns. as we all know, average Americans do not benefit in this. However with that said it has to be because of the materials required for bush's created Iraq war. with the costs reaching as high as 2 trillion dollars according to Nobel award winning economist Joseph stillgitz we need all the money we can get. That monstrous expense in itself is a victory for the insurgents in Iraq. He keeps urging Iraqi unity. He unwittingly has given them the motivation for them to unify and against us. Bush says the Iraqi's have shown a willingness to come together for the sake of national unity.
It looks like they will be able to temporarily set aside their differencesin order to concentrate on us andouur removal from their soil. With Bush insisting on staying the course and refusing to exercise any sense at all he still refuses to learn anything at all from Vietnam. He still insists on overstaying our mispercieved welcome. He is purposefully making us the targets. A sunni politician has recently declared the U.S. as the enemy. With murders increasing of both Sunni's and shiite's now at more than 500 since Bush's so called succesful electionthey are killing each other as we knew they would. After a U.S attack on a crowded Shiite Mosque killing 60 we gave the sunni's the perfect opportunity to declare unity with the Shiite in declaring that we must get out of Iraq.
With Iraq continuing to degrade it is fundamentally in worse shape despite all our money, effort, and american lives, than during the Saddam days. Bush continues to insist on doing the wrong thing and strengthen their unity. He is succeeding and it will be turned against us. With Iran's meddling in the election and their insistance on enrich uranium and having nuclear capabilities things are about to open up in the Middle East as we knew they would. a great success for Bush and his straightening out of the Middle East. Just what were his real intentions anyway?

Todays Feeling:No Delay be unique admit your guilt!
I refuse to believe that once again a Republican has had to step down only after things became too hot and he is being commended. This time as you know it was Delay. There have been so many dirty Republicans that it would be easier to name the honest ones. In this case Delay is being commended by Republicans for putting party and country first. Let’s get real doing the right thing for the country was not even a thought. You can be sure he was thinking about the party only because they wanted him to step down before they were affected. You can bet he stepped down also for himself of course.
His stepping down of course had nothing to do with Abramoff preparing his list of corrupt lawmakers. Without a doubt he was in bed with Abramoff. However of course he did nothing wrong and again true to form has already professed his innocence and being railroaded having been wrongfully accused. He has gone so far as to threaten us the lower classes. He say’s he is going to continue running for congress, He continues to say he has done a good and honest job, and the republican work is not done. That is a threat if we’ve ever heard one. This has become absolutely sickening
I am an independent but I have to agree with the Democratic assertion that the culture of corruption in the Republican Party is so pervasive that Delay stepping down is window dressing and will do nothing at all to clean up the Republican Congress. As we all know, the Nation has been up for sale to the highest bidder people be damned. With few exceptions we must clean house
ourselves next election and start if we must with a clean slate and new Republican mindset. Please feel free to make a list of the corrupt and leave you comments.

Robertsons ignorance increased with percieved dominance of the Republican Party
As we have said many times in the past, regardless of what the Religion extreme Religiosity is the most dangerous force in the world. It has been the force behind many of society’s problems and reasons for wars since the beginning of time. Right here in the U.S. We have developed great problems in the daily fabric of society by the purposeful infusion of hard line religious beliefs into our Political system. Fundamentalist Christianity is playing a very boisterous and unhealthy role in our Government. It is felt by many who are capable of unbiased thought. It is beginning to cause much animosity amongst many some of which as myself, are even Christian.
However we all feel Religion does not have a roll in our Political system beyond driving you to do the right thing for the country and its people. There is no role for any one Religion to feel they can force there beliefs on the rest of America and its citizens. Isn’t that what we are accusing the Islamists of doing? President Bush has done this at each and every opportunity he gets. We could be talking about any number of Republican leaders in this administration right now but we are instead talking about Pat Robertson (AKA televangelist).
As the republican Party is doing increasingly well as far as the fundamentalists are concerned, many of them are increasingly emboldened to acts of immorality as you witness by the politicians. As religious leaders their role is not to advocate dominance but tolerance so with this in mind Pat Robertson has stepped over the line many times over the years. He advocated the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Right or wrong that isn’t the point. This guy has been over the top for years. He must learn to control his mouth and like Bush he never will.
Many Fundamentalist Christians, not all, have been too forward and loud in their pushing of Christianity on the country and the rest of the world. It is counter productive to the good of the country, the world, and Christianity. What Mr. Robertson thinks does not matter. Pat Robertson continues proving himself to be a major quack. Thankfully as far as I’m concerned he has proven once again the dangers of Christian fundamentalism in our society. I mentioned earlier I felt the president had no right to inject his feelings and beliefs into the debate between intelligent design and evolution and neither did Robertson.
Pat Robertson a proven crackpot has also announced that God won’t help the town of Dover because they don’t want divine intervention taught in their schools. What happened to the God that loves everyone? What happened to the god that loves all? It’s there way or the highway. I don't think the likes of Pat robertson realize the corruption and depravity of these so called fundamentalists has finally come to the fore front. I refuse to believe someone that professes a love for Christ and God can make such a stupid statement as God gave Sharon the stroke because of his stance in Gaza. Come on, these fundamentalists in and out of government must be brought under control before they sink us. Their corrupt negative influence has come to light in the publics eyes at last. Hopefully Robertson and the likes will go south as the republican party does. With that said Bush shows no let up himself only a willingness to continue his corruptive fundamentalist unbridled religiosity.

As the republican Party is doing increasingly well as far as the fundamentalists are concerned, many of them are increasingly emboldened to acts of immorality as you witness by the politicians. As religious leaders their role is not to advocate dominance but tolerance so with this in mind Pat Robertson has stepped over the line many times over the years. He advocated the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Right or wrong that isn’t the point. This guy has been over the top for years. He must learn to control his mouth and like Bush he never will.
Many Fundamentalist Christians, not all, have been too forward and loud in their pushing of Christianity on the country and the rest of the world. It is counter productive to the good of the country, the world, and Christianity. What Mr. Robertson thinks does not matter. Pat Robertson continues proving himself to be a major quack. Thankfully as far as I’m concerned he has proven once again the dangers of Christian fundamentalism in our society. I mentioned earlier I felt the president had no right to inject his feelings and beliefs into the debate between intelligent design and evolution and neither did Robertson.
Pat Robertson a proven crackpot has also announced that God won’t help the town of Dover because they don’t want divine intervention taught in their schools. What happened to the God that loves everyone? What happened to the god that loves all? It’s there way or the highway. I don't think the likes of Pat robertson realize the corruption and depravity of these so called fundamentalists has finally come to the fore front. I refuse to believe someone that professes a love for Christ and God can make such a stupid statement as God gave Sharon the stroke because of his stance in Gaza. Come on, these fundamentalists in and out of government must be brought under control before they sink us. Their corrupt negative influence has come to light in the publics eyes at last. Hopefully Robertson and the likes will go south as the republican party does. With that said Bush shows no let up himself only a willingness to continue his corruptive fundamentalist unbridled religiosity.

Lawmakers call for Lobbyist reform, are we impressed?
Today is 1/6 and what a surprise. With the revelation that Abramoff is dirty and has admitted to corruption and bribery and knowing he has bilked millions out of clients illegally. With the revelation that many in the public think our law makers are dirty. We know there are many especially republicans who are quaking in their boots knowing they too are guilty but will falsely admit to innocence which is the norm in Congress. Amazing, all of a sudden Lawmakers from both parties are calling for reform of the lobbyist system. The very system they know was dirty and anti average American. Yet the very system they relied on financially in order to get reelected. Again I will say, are we supposed to commend someone for doing the right thing after they are caught being less than moral?
What a surprise the very Bill calling for reform that has already gained a majority of support has always been controversial and could never gain support. As we have said that President Bush will not do the right thing for the people and will not adhere to the law unless forced to do so. He has set the example for the rest of government and sadly enough for the public to act in kind and they do. We know ½ a million dollars have been returned so far by Lawmakers. The big concern to me is yes the determined direction of the government bought by lobbyist monies. But more importantly is the countless millions they have defrauded innocent (maybe not) people out of.

Todays reality-at the very least Iraqi civil war is imminent?
We closed our conversations about Iraq in 2005 with the declaration the President Bush was wrongly and prematurely calling the parliamentary elections a success when it we nothing more than an election under gunpoint and total lockdown. We knew the real success or failure of the election would be after security was back down to the normal high. We closed out 2005 with increasing violence bringing to light the true results of the election.
With all of the President’s recently announced so called successes in Iraq you have to continue to think about this. With our hopefully improved defenses against IED’s. With our increased standing up of capable Iraqi defense units. With our continuing joint U.S. Iraqi operations designed to disrupt and hopefully quell various terrorist capabilities. Now we have the recent announcement that Iraq’s largest oil refinery is slated to close because of security concerns. This will only serve to further cripple Iraq and seal their fate of total anarchy set into motion by President Bush.
With these supposed successes and supposed successful steps towards democracy and in the face of decreasing allied troop support in Iraq we have announced a troop draw down of our own. Our troops have fought valiantly and have earned this. We all want that but the facts continue to point towards the failure of President Bush’s ill advised plans and insistence on staying the wrong course. We have opened 2006 with still increasing violence, murders, car bombings, and the explosions getting increasingly horrific and deadly. We have had more than 130 murdered Iraqi’s today and 11 U.S. soldiers from multitudes of bombings and murders of every sort imaginable throughout Iraq.
Since the beginning of President Bush’s created Iraq war and necessary war on terrorism we have been calling for a civil war. President Bush knew that at the least that was one of the consequences of attacking Iraq before ha ignored all good advice against attacking and did so anyway. With the results as we called them, coming to fruition it looks like we were right. Quite a good election huh? With more than 240 dead and 280 wounded in just 5 days and the definite knowledge that Iran at the least stuffed ballots and intimidated voters. The Sunni’s have a reason to be concerned. Civil war looks imminent to me. What do you think?

2006 should witness the downfall of Republican dominance?
With the promise of President Bush to stay the course in all respects and continue 2005 through 2006 you have to be very concerned. Being an average American that from the get go sounds ominous and like a threat. In light of the demise of the lower classes under this President you have to be very apprehensive. While he continues to daily worsen the plight of the lower classes and call the country as experiencing prosperity you have to worry about his concerns and the future. Likewise, with the almost daily examples of corruption coming out of this Administration and the President promising more of the same in 2006 we are witnessing as we speak some of the worse corruption this Administration has spewed forth.
Of course no one has ever done anything wrong they are all innocent. At least that is the line of denial until they are backed into a corner. True to form there was nothing but denials until the evidence was undeniable with Abramoff. You have to wonder how deep the denials and corruption will go now? Who will get caught in the trap this time? 2006 is shaping up to look like it is developing into a major rupture of the Republican Party we hope. So let us just take a minute and give the subject of Jack Abramoff and corruption some time and what recent developments might mean for the Republican Party from the eyes of the unbiased.
We are hearing that there may be a couple dozen from both parties brought down by Abramoff when he is through disclosing who he has been bribing. There seems to be politicians on both sides of the aisle as well as their aides. I hope this spells the end of innocent Delay and his hopeful comeback. As we said in our last book, our politicians do not work for us they work for lobbyists and special interests. Now we are going to get the proof. The hopeful result will be the demise of the republican big government, financially irresponsible, so called compassionate conservative party and the average American getting the government back. With 435 House seats and 33 Senate seats up for grabs in November we can hope for the best.
There was a recent Gallop poll done in which almost half of those polled believes Congress to be corrupt. Personally I believe it to be closer to 90% for the Republicans and 75% for Democrats. With the recent Abramoff admission Senators are running scared and rushing to donate his contributions to charity like they are just finding out about his corruption or something and want to appear clean, yeah right no one did nothing or knew nothing. With all the corruption we have all been witnessing almost daily from the Republicans and public opinion being against them at last. You have to believe that the reason Carol Keeton Strayhorn turned her back on the Republican party was not out of fear of the competition in running for governor of Texas but instead out of the realization that the Republican Party at the point is a weight around your neck. It should have happened long ago but this should spell curtains for republican domination.

We start the year with just one more double standard!
Doug Flutie's drop kick yeserday wasn't that amazing? On the other end of the spectrum but mind bogglingly stupifying is this. Yesterday was also New Years Day and 2006 appears to be starting ominously for average Americans. President Bush has promised to stay the course of corruptive ineptitude at home in Iraq and around the world. Knowing what he showed us last year alone you have to be very concerned. Somebody will straighten me out if I am wrong and please do. Right off the bat he has shown that he is going to continue business as unusual. This is today’s hot button issue that raises questions of double standards to many of us. Sadly enough double standards are situation normal with the President and his administration.
His justice Department is investigating the leaking of the fact that the President Okayed the NSA and others to spy on Americans. I know there is or was a mock investigation but I do not remember him willingly having the Justice Department investigating the leaking of Valerie Plame as a spy or Bush being adament about knowing the truth as to the leak even remotely, or announcing how damaging these asctions are to the country? I know Plame was a Democrat and Scooter and Rove’s are his Republican cronies but still. Do not try to tell the truth and get in this presidents way. Dan rather can tell you that first hand.
There too the truth was told but it put the President in a true disreputable light so Mr. Rather was made to take the fall in order to protect the Presidents false image. I have been listening to the Sunday talk shows today and the Republicans believe this must be investigated because during times of war our ability to spy must not be compromised. This double standard crap has got to stop. It was no big deal when it was a democrat that was ratted on. With this Administration the childish political games will not stop but must. Both parties are so busy attacking each other that once again the facts and what should be important is not even mentioned. Sadly enough we start 2006 as we ended 2005 and this is not good for America.

Wer'e in trouble, Bush Promises to make 2006 as bad as 2005!!
Today is New Years Eve and we just heard the Presidents weekly radio address. It was his last hurrah for 2005 and he was talking about how he wants to continue his abuse of the past through 2006. This has to really scare you the average American. He vowed to continue what to you and I as average Americans witness and experience as the continued destruction of society and the country as we like to remember it. He still thinks we are the envy of the world. This is still partially true but only because a large part of the world is still behind us in their progression. Due to his insistence on continued tax cuts for the wealthy. His continued destruction of the lower classes, his continuing outsourcing of his Karl Rove’s taught 3D politics contributing to world disorder he is continuing to erode this envy as we move into 2006.
He continues to insist that 2005 was a good year for the country both home and abroad. As an average American you have to ask yourself for whom, the rich, the Fundamentalist Christians? He doesn’t have a clue about reality anywhere. He still insists that political progress in Iraq is looking good and continuing to move forward, unbelievable. He can somehow still insist we are showing improvements in the U.S. economy. Again we have to stress that he is referring to the elite and the Christian fundamentalists that he works for not you the average American. We all experience his so called prosperity and economic improvements in the lower classes. Having read this book you also now know why. As a country of average Americans we can not take much more of his so called prosperity. I can only say in closing this for the year that I hope to God someone, anyone, can influence this President and make him do the right think for the country and its legal lower classes. Good luck to us in 2006!

Bush's supposed Iraqi success will Fail In The End?
Today is 12/31/05. Before we put the subject of Iraq and Islam to bed for the year I just want to point out a couple more facts for us to think about. We have been hearing of one Shiite murder after the next. We are starting to hear of an increase in the murders of Sunni’s. You have to believe these are retribution killings and will only continue to increase as the country deteriorates into total bedlam as we knew it would. As we have continually said, this will not end with Iraq. Iraq is only the beginning thanks to President Bush. The remainder of the Middle East and the world will be right behind it. Either President Bush is totally corruptively inept and clueless as many of us have believed him to be from the beginning he has to have known the consequences of his toying with the Middle East and world political systems.
With all of the President’s recently announced so called successes in Iraq you have to continue to think about this. With our hopefully improved defenses against IED’s. With our increased standing up of capable Iraqi defense units. With our continuing joint U.S. Iraqi operations designed to disrupt and hopefully quell various terrorist capabilities. Now we have the recent announcement that Iraq’s largest oil refinery is slated to close because of security concerns. This will only serve to further cripple Iraq and seal their fate of total anarchy set into motion by President Bush.
With these supposed successes and supposed successful steps towards democracy and in the face of decreasing allied troop support in Iraq we have announced a troop draw down of our own. Our troops have fought valiantly and have earned this. We all want that but the facts continue to point towards the failure of President Bush’s ill advised plans and insistence on staying the wrong course. With this being New Years Eve and the announcement of more U.S. deaths raising this years total to 841 just four short of last years how can we announce any success and announce perspective troop reductions? President Bush seems to want to ensure failure in Iraq as many of us have felt from the get go. His new planned world order seems to be planned world disorder and failure. As we continue into the future and with 2006 right around the corner we can only hope.

Merry Christmas! Despite Bush we survived to see another!
Merry christmas! it's Christmas 05 and it looks like we will survive the year as a Nation despite President Bush's corruptive ineptitude. At this point in light of what we have seen from this administration we have to be very concerned about 06 and the near future of this Mation as we know it and want to pass it on to future generations. the president is not finished lowering the the lower classes and increasing the status of the elite and he has plenty of time to finish his plan.
You have to be very concerned with the future as long as this president is in control of it. i have to laugh thinking about what I noticed was a big topic on dkos this morning. where to live in the country? first you better worry about having it to pass on to our children thanks to bush's misdirection. besides that the big concern was hurricanes, shoppiing, and restaurants. It seems to me that the safest place in the U.S. is the east coast below Maine and New Hampshire. we do have some cold weather to deal with there but not the extremes found in more northly States nor the extreme heats. You have the hurricane belt but what about tornadoes and earthquakes that cover much of the remainder of the country? You do have the snow birds but to my recollection Florida has become the sexually deviant capital of the country so despite hiding from the fires and hurricanes, etc, your youth are never safe. Any way you look at it we are not safe as long as President Bush is in charge.

I'm Making a List I'm checking it Twice and I need your help!
Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and we'll find out which of our Politicians have been naughty or nice. Today I am compiling a list of the events this Administration has purposely implemented in order to harm the lower classes and sink them ever further. There have been many as we all sadly have experienced. I know I will miss many but between you I know you won't. So please add your sad recollections to the list. Following is my list: First I want to remind you that in Bush's own words, you the lower classes are only an unfunded liability. He proved that by lowering his so called unfunded liability by cutting your Medicade, cutting your Medicare, reducing your public education funds, and any other number of federal programs you rely on for your survival. He has proven to be public enemy number 1 to the lower classes not Bin Laden. he has allowed border insecurity and illegal immigration. your loss for this primarily is in your taxes paying medical expenses etc which are required by law while you are left to your own demise. He has allowed high tech jobs as well as working class jobs to be taken by millions of indian's and anyone else who can come in and fill the slots while he cuts your education funds. He is using your tax contributions to support corperations. By passing another new law he has doubled the percentage rates and the minimum payments you must make on your credit cards. again for your own good. He killed your last ditch effort to save yourself by changing to your detriment as you know, your ability to file for bankruptcy. State, local, and property taxes have soared. Tax deductions that traditionally benefit the middle Class have been either reduced or taken away altogether. Please feel free to help me complete the list and tomorrow we'll find out which politicians have been naughty or nice.

In Anwar to drill or not to Drill that is the question?
I just want to take a minute o discuss the Senates action today 12/21 concerning drilling in Anwar. I for one am happy to say the president was thwarted in his effort to drill for oil in Alaska’s Anwar Wildlife refuge. The debate over the oil drilling has been going on for years. It has become fierce enough of late to have the senators delay their Christmas break. It was not expected to be a close call in the respect that it may pass or the Vice President would have been called there to do the wrong thing and ensure its passage. The Republicans displayed their usual underhanded politicking by tucking the drilling approval into an omnibus defense bill.
This bill also included billions of dollars for Katrina relief and billions more in home heating subsidies for the poor, elderly, and disabled. That the underhanded Republicans knew would have to pass with the careers of these Senators at stake if they were made to look unpatriotic or uncaring of the needy and the Katrina victims. Still, with filibuster being threatened by Democrats and some Republicans, Senate leaders were expected to withdraw the drilling legislation from the defense bill and it would be dealt with later separately. As far as I am concerned this is a victory for the Democrats and a rare defeat for the President. However as chief of the Yukon’s said, as long as there is a public majority in the house and Senate and especially with the President in office this drilling issue will never go away and you can bank on it.

Strike costs potentially a lot higher than just financial!
In the case of this illegal transit strike in already shocked New York City, Mayor bloomberg is doing the right thing and handling this responsibly and correctly. The strike by the Metropolitan Transportation authority brought the city’s bus and subway systems to a grinding halt. During an average week these systems carry approximately 7 million passengers. You can only imagine the amount of people it would carry during Christmas and the loss in revenue not only to the city but what about all the private businesses.
These thugs going out on an illegal against the law strike are kicking the very people that give them their living. This is going to cost an already strapped New York City around $400 million a day. Some people across the city will undoubtedly pay for this ignorance forced upon them with their jobs. Mayor Bloomberg is right in saying this action is unconscionable and you can’t break the law and use it as a negotiating tactic and for what? They are tired of being under appreciated and disrespected. They are no different than many of the rest of the country.
The people support them, pay for their living, and utilize and depend on their services. What more acknowledgement and show of appreciation can you ask for? You can bet they are not underpaid and have a superior benefit package. One of their chief grievances is that the Transportation Authority wants them to pay a larger share of their health care. Again I say, why should they think they’re any different than the rest of the country? Their action leaves a bad taste knowing what NY City has already been through and knowing that the Medicaid and Medicare are going to be cut for the poor, elderly, and disabled.
Judge Jones is fining the Union $1 million per day as the strike is in defiance of a court injunction. The law also allows a fine of 2 days pay for every day on strike. That one as far as the worker in the trenches goes sounds a bit stiff but. The city is also seeking damages of their own as well they should. One gentleman who was interviewed felt that the striking workers should all be fired. I tend to agree with that thought. Give them the opportunity to come back to work, if they do not then hire new workers. Air traffic controllers paid for their refusal to work with their jobs. As in that instance I feel it is right to do that here too.
These transportation workers are going on strike at a critical time for the city and its people. They are willingly and knowingly biting the hand that feeds them. These illegal strikers are messing over the very people that are the system. They are purposely trying to hurt the very people who give them their living. They are essentially stabbing the very people who support them.
Without the people of the city from every walk of life, there would be no transit system. This is not only hurting the city and everyone that relies on the public transportation system but it is worse than that. This improves the chances of would be terrorists to booby trap now unused and possibly unwatched transit facilities. We will have to watch, wait, and listen, to see if we will not pay a much higher price for this illegal irresponsible strike than just financial costs.

Their action leaves a bad taste knowing what NY City has already been through and knowing that the Medicaid and Medicare are going to be cut for the poor, elderly, and disabled.
Judge Jones is fining the Union $1 million per day as the strike is in defiance of a court injunction. The law also allows a fine of 2 days pay for every day on strike. That one as far as the worker in the trenches goes sounds a bit stiff but. The city is also seeking damages of their own as well they should. One gentleman who was interviewed felt that the striking workers should all be fired. I tend to agree with that thought. Give them the opportunity to come back to work, if they do not then hire new workers. Air traffic controllers paid for their refusal to work with their jobs. As in that instance I feel it is right to do that here too.
These transportation workers are going on strike at a critical time for the city and its people. They are willingly and knowingly biting the hand that feeds them. These illegal strikers are messing over the very people that are the system. They are purposely trying to hurt the very people who give them their living. They are essentially stabbing the very people who support them.
Without the people of the city from every walk of life, there would be no transit system. This is not only hurting the city and everyone that relies on the public transportation system but it is worse than that. This improves the chances of would be terrorists to booby trap now unused and possibly unwatched transit facilities. We will have to watch, wait, and listen, to see if we will not pay a much higher price for this illegal irresponsible strike than just financial costs.

Cutting the working class vitals and keeping their Pork
I, like most of you find it very repugnant that the House just approved $39.7 Billion in spending cuts. These are the unfunded liabilities the President said we must decrease. I find it sickening that we are saving that money at the expense of the lower classes while the President insists on giving the rich back their taxes. These so called savings are going to be in health care (Medicaid and Medicare etc.), education, and other Federal programs critical to the lower classes. That is despicable in itself, especially after the tremendous damage he has steadily inflicted on the lower classes from the get go.
This information gets worse when you realize these senators never once gave a thought to cutting their Pork Barrel Projects. Since 1990 $150 Billion has been spent on pork barrel projects. In 2004 alone that irresponsible spending was $22.9 Billion. In this years irresponsible much touted transportation bill there were in that bill alone, 6,376 unnecessary pork projects totaling to $24 billion. Yet they somehow can be proud of saving money on the backs of the needy? That’s our Republican compassionate conservative led senate for you. This is unconscionable to those that have one.
In my first book titled Life in The Trenches of American Society I explained a winning solution to this immorality. I will repeat it because it is getting more important as time moves on, the so called war on terror continues unabated, and we continue to have irresponsible Republican control of the country. Now let us talk about a very much needed and good idea of how to let Politicians have the pork to take home to their States. This will enable them to get even more. At the same time they will be helping out the country in homeland security by helping to secure our Borders at no additional cost. There would be no limit to the financial benefit they could potentially bring to their population. The only limit would be of their own making in their desire or lack there of in doing the right thing for the country and helping in Homeland Security Programs of every order. Of course this program too would have to be watched by an independent council or something along that order as does everything in this Administration today.

Todays Fact: Once again we are watching a dance around the truth, now it's illegal eavesdropping!
This is interesting! Once again we are hearing calls of wrong doing by the President. This time it is coming loud and clear from both sides. We are talking about the recent foreclosure that the President gave the okay to have Americans and others spied on without court approval. This broke on 12/17 and of course was instantly denied by the President. Condi of course came right out in his defense. The following day 12/18 with the facts piling up and being undeniable, ha did the standard thing for him and his administration. When cornered and only then, come clean. What bothers me is that there are some who commended him for telling the truth. You do not getting commended for being honest when you only did so under duress. The President has never been honest and he will not be honest now.
During an interview with Tim Russert Condi Rice continually dodged the real questions and answers. As during the 9/11 commission hearings it was obvious that she was being dishonest and evasive. She continually said the President was acting under Constitutional authority. She would not however state that Constitutional Authority. Whenever there was a dicey question she dodged it by saying you know I’m not a lawyer. She dodged every conversation specific issue saying she would not discuss what went on between her and another party. Pretty convenient isn’t it? She only says I do know he had the authority. How would she know that but nothing relevant if she was not a lawyer?
She continually said the President was acting under Presidential Authority covered by FISA (The Foreign Intelligence security act). Then we find out in conversations with Senator Arlen Specter, (R-PA) and Senator Carl Levin (D MI) that there is a secret court that is the check and balance of those rights. Laws as you know are for everyone but the president. He believes he is above the law. The President continues to insist that he acted within the law but he will not cite that law. That’s because he is still looking for one to cover his corruptive ineptitude. As we have cited many times in the past, if he cannot find one to cover himself he will resurrect an old obscure law to fit his selfish desires. The president is obviously being less than honest once again to put it mildly. I don’t care if we are at war or not. We have rules and laws even in times of war that are designed to be implemented in secret. Even President Bush must be held accountable. He is out of control and has an over inflated sense of worth and must be held accountable for his now numerous misactions.

Todays Fact: Our Self Created self perpetuating deviant Society
Just take a minute and listen to this evaluation of our society’s problems. I think you will all agree. I woke up last night at 1: am thinking of a poll question for a Diary I was going to submit in the morning. The subject of Border insecurity and illegal immigration is very contentious. So I was trying to word it right. I never did get it. At about 3: am I started thinking of the following issue. Listen to this and tell me your feelings about this. I will include them in our future book. The Blog will be titled “Our self created Self perpetuated Deviant Society”. If you continue to raise the bar on existence in America as the President is purposely doing you create an environment that the overwhelming majority must struggle in. Those that can no longer struggle are left to their own demise and to do as they desire.
Many people as a result are falling through society’s moral cracks. Social deviancy has been around since the beginning of man. However we have created an environment domestically, financially, and socially, where people are left to flounder. They are on their own to do as they see fit. They feel nothing for no one just their own selfish often deviant satisfaction. We have socially and legally created an environment for sexual perverts and deviants of every order to germinate, bloom, and flourish.
The legal system caters to the deviants as they are their primary source of revenue. The President’s new idea of society only makes the problem worse and allows it to flourish despite what he thinks. We can turn this around. We must regain control of our financial system. We must regain control of our legal system. We must regain control of out society as a whole in order to turn this deviancy around. This deviancy has not always been so abundant. We have created a society where this is allowed to flourish. The problem is us. The tendency for malconformance and deviancy has always been there as we know. We though are increasing it purposely. Our purposely over stressed society has made these tendencies a requirement for many in their minds for their personal needs and survival. Today’s society is forcing many of these tendencies to come out much to the demise of moral society. please let me know what you think about this.

Todays Thought:securing the Borders is not for you or the country!
Today is 12/17, as of late we have finally heard a desire to take care of our Border insecurity. I just want you to think about this. As we have said many times in the past, Congress and the president deserve no credit for this. They are finally doing what they were duty bound to do immediately following 9/11. You should not be rewarded or look for accolades for taking care of your responsibility and doing what you should have done in the first place. This is not being done for your security or because it is the right thing to do.
Congress gave the President what he wanted by leaving the borders open, clamping down on the lower classes, and supporting his many inept policies. Now that it’s election time, they are doing the right thing for them and their reelection hopes not you. It is now the President’s turn to come through for them not you. Doing the right thing for the country and securing the borders thus putting a damper on the presidents supply of necessary illegal immigrants is not what he really wants. He continues to prove by looking to protect illegal immigrants and implement worker programs for them along with hopeful eventual citizenship.
The Mexican government is upset with the crackdown. This crackdown will take away their number one source of income, illegal immigration to America. Mexico claims now that they want a bilateral management of border insecurity and illegal immigration. If this were to be the case I agree with it 100%. Up to now though as most of us know, it has been unilaterally controlled and managed by Mexico. We will now step forward and take care of our border responsibilities. If Mexico really wants responsible bilateral management of our mutual borders then they should step forward and handle their end. Securing their southern borders would be a welcome start. Then we can log the illegal immigrants that are already here. We can then go forth and handle this correctly to the benefit of all. We do need migrant workers. They should be controlled migrant workers not out of control as it is now and Mexico and others would like to see it stay. we can do what is right for Americans and America and help those that need it if we do this right but we will not you can be sure.

Bush cannot handle the responsibility of The Patriot Act
On 12/10 we wrote this as we had been listening to the president lecturing on how important the Patriot Act has been in the war against terrorism. I believe under the right Administration and discipline that this is an important tool to have. I rarely agree with President Bush. I do agree with him in that the patriot Act at this juncture is an important tool in our information gathering arsenal. Like many of you though, I feel it is a dangerous weapon in the hands of a man like our current President. I find Nancy Pelosi a little to hard core anti Bush but like many of you again I have to agree with her assessment that there should be an extension but it should only be for 3 months in order to assess, evaluate, and hopefully come to an agreement as to whether it is being used properly or not. If it was anyone other than President Bush it would be easier to believe that the responsibility that comes with the Patriot Act would not be abused. We have found out the hard way that giving this president Carte Blanche with anything is a mistake.
Today is 12/16 and we now know The Patriot Act Renewal failed. I don’t know what I feel about that yet. President Bush has shown he cannot be trusted with the awesome responsibility of The Act. It has just come out that he okayed spying on Americans and other without warrants immediately following 9/11. Of course Condi came out in his defense and denied it. The president has said ahead of time that he would vote against a 3 month extension. The baby is going to hold his breath until he gets his way. Republican Senator Kyle said in failing to pass what the President wants, opponents are effectively allowing the Patriot act to expire and helping the terrorists. Isn’t that what Bush us doing by refusing to sign an extension that would enable close scrutiny and the prevention of abuse that has already begun coming out. God forbid if the terrorist hit us if this expires. I hear I told you so already. We already know and discussed that this administration cannot be trust with any power and he continues to prove it. If he vetoes a responsible 3 month extension when and if any resultant security problems crop up they are his direct responsibility.

Subject: Premature Celebrations over Iraqi Voter Turnout
You’re going to like this next discussion. First I just want to say I just heard that the President has made it clear that the U.S. does not engage in torture. He also made it clear we didn’t engage in nation building that he is now bragging about. I have to bring a couple of points forth that have not been mentioned and you have to listen to so you can have the full picture and think for yourself. The President is now bragging about today’s voting outcome in Iraq. As well he and the Iraqi’s should if it were that cut and dry but think about these little facts.
You can’t expect terrorists to be roaming around under total lockdown. You can’t expect car bombings when vehicles aren’t allowed on the road. You can’t declare a victory when the vote is under the defense of a gun barrel. That isn’t all of it. Sunni’s came out this time in order to legally try to get their majority rule. If they don’t get it there are no guarantees here. The terrorists many of which are Sunni’s and Saddam loyalists as much as we might want to think they are they’re not stupid. They know with all the Sunni’s out to vote if they were out murdering voters they would be killing Sunni’s too. They know this would turn the people against them even further and it would only serve to hurt their cause. I will feel good about today’s events when security is back to its normal high, vehicles are back on the road, and the insurgency bombings and murders aren’t even higher than they were before the election.

Todays thought: What happened to we are not into Nation Building?
I had a conversation today that mede me feel I should remind us all of something. President Bush gave his fourth speech on his plan for Iraq and his assessment as to how things were going. Overall I really don’t have much to say about it except that it was the same old rhetoric with 2 distinct exceptions. Surprisingly I haven’t heard either of these points mentioned. Particularly surprising is that the Democrats haven’t capitalized off of these two admissions. President Bush was being commended for being honest and admitted to being accountable for believing bad intelligence as the rest of the world and both parties did. While saying the intelligence was wrong but taking out Saddam was right. I disagree with that statement as many of you do and that doesn’t sound like taking responsibility to me. It sounds like just some more rhetoric from the artful dodger. He still has not been honest and if he was he shouldn’t be getting credit for something he should have done years ago. The big turn around to me was the fact that right from the beginning he has insisted that we are not in the business of Nation building. Am I the only one in the country that listened today when he said that unseating Saddam was not our only original goal? He now says that building a successful Democracy in Iraq was one of our original goals. Isn’t that a standard Bush about face? Isn’t that also called Nation building?

Reality will hit and Bush's Polls will go back down where they belong!
Now that the Presidents polls that he supposedly does not listen to are going back up after 4 misconceived speeches on events concerning Iraq. He somehow thinks he has the moral standing to say that he believes Tom Delay is innocent. You can be sure he is guilty and who is this President with no moral standing whatsoever thinking he should be believed? To top that off we now have Robert Novak Republican partisan and columnist who broke the Plame story to begin with apparently cooperating with the investigation. We know Mr. Cheney has already been implicated in the treasonous act of outing an undercover CIA agent.
Now Mr. Novak admits that he is convinced that the President himself almost definitely knew who was responsible for the leak. I will guarantee you that the President did know if he didn’t in fact okay the leak himself. Remember who his teacher of deceitful, deceptive, divisive, 3D politics was and his moral standing. We will never learn the truth but it is a bit funny when you think of this. At one point before the investigation started to point in his direction the President vowed to fire whoever was involved in leaking the name of the undercover agent. Just imagine this; if he was honest he would probably go down in history as the first president to have himself impeached. Just hold on, reality will hit the people again and those polls will be down again where they should be.

Today's Thought:Bush deserves to be drowned out??
Today is 12/13 and once again I am compelled to set Bill Oreilley straight. His show last night was extremely biased of course. It was titled the Anti-Bush Campaign. I just have to say, I am not far left that I am aware of but I believe it is in the interest of the future of our country to have an Anti-bush Campaign. He feels that it is wrong to disrupt the speech of a President. Normally I would agree with that. This is anti America president Bush though. He does not deserve a forum or to be heard. You command respect you don’t demand it.
He cited a far left ad saying that the Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very quickly, in a fascist way, and for generations to come. He dismisses this as stupid rhetoric. I hate to tell him, it is true and only a small part of the doctrine Bush is following. He says the Ad accusing Bush of being like Hitler were amusing because it is the far left that is acting like Hitler’s brown shirt’s. He says it is people like Jane Fonda and Ward Churchill of the so called far left that are the ones behaving like Hitler. Both parties to me are guilty.
Oreilley goes on to say how he listens to all views in the so called no spin
Zone yeah right, before he ignorantly discounts it. He would do well to remember that extremism exists in both party’s, Republicans are just masters of deception and P.R. There are far left that play into Bush’s hand by making the entire Democratic Party look extreme and totally divided. There is also far Right that is finally beginning to be heard by the general public and is beginning to hurt his cause and that’s a good thing. People like Oreilley who are obviously based in their evaluation also only serve to help us and hurt the president which again is a good thing.

Thought for today: Should Tooky Williams die?
I just want to take a minute to discuss the Tooky William’s case in California. Again, this opinion is coming from someone with no bias or political standings. Having listened to those that want to see him die for his crimes and those that want to see him live listen to both sides and listen to the implications involved here. We know he is responsible for the shotgun deaths of 4 people and that he co-founded the Crip’s a very violent gang. On the other hand we also know he has become an advocate against violent gangs, has written books promoting youth responsibility and accountability. He has also become a role model in prison and has had a movie produced about his life.
I have heard this opinion already but I will repeat that we are sending the dead wrong message if he is put to death. Yes, he did kill 4 people but he is responsible for helping thousands of American youth. Yes he should be held accountable and he is. I believe life in prison is called being held accountable. Under normal conditions I can agree that he should pay with his life but not in this case. If we were to go ahead and put him to death we would be sending the wrong message to all that commit violent crimes. Don’t try to improve yourself because we are going to kill you no matter how much you turn your life around and help society. There we go, Arnold refused clemency we were just told now we’ll see what happens as a result?

Bush uses Divide and Conquer on the Democrats once more!
I was awake last night thinking about all that is happening in the current Administration, a little problem I was having on my web site, Joe Lieberman’s being used by the President, and last but not least Karl Rove’s and his 3d( divisive, deceptive, deceitful)) Politics. Everything came full circle. I realized how I must end this book and the exact tactics once again being used by the president and why. All along I have been labeling the Presidents Karl Rove’s taught Political ploy as 3D. It in fact is. He not only uses these divide and conquer tactics in America in general to turn the people on each other. He uses it successfully on the Democratic Party continually. He proves this once again this time by using Mr. Lieberman’s stance on the Iraq war as a means of dividing the Democratic Party.
He uses it on his own Party in order to sway them into giving him what he wrongly wants for his own selfish plan for society. As you know, he has successfully outsourced this technique of poisonous divide and conquer Political tactics around the world. Sadly the negative results are playing out all over the world right now. We see it in the purposeful division in the Far East. We are watching it in the tensions and political division in the Stan’s (ex soviet Bloc satellites).
Worst of all we watch daily the negative results of these tactics of division. The problems he has caused with these tactics of division will not be overcome in Iraq. They will also continue to spread throughout the Middle East. Not just in Syria, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, it will encompass them all and turn them on each other. We can already see this happening but things are still only getting started. It looks to me like Karl Rove’s a man that enjoys God like status in the Republican party is the purveyor of the worst problem to ever hit the world and the President is his too willing tool. God help us!

He uses it on his own Party in order to sway them into giving him what he wrongly wants for his own selfish plan for society. As you know, he has successfully outsourced this technique of poisonous divide and conquer Political tactics around the world. Sadly the negative results are playing out all over the world right now. We see it in the purposeful division in the Far East. We are watching it in the tensions and political division in the Stan’s (ex soviet Bloc satellites).
Worst of all we watch daily the negative results of these tactics of division. The problems he has caused with these tactics of division will not be overcome in Iraq. They will also continue to spread throughout the Middle East. Not just in Syria, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, it will encompass them all and turn them on each other. We can already see this happening but things are still only getting started. It looks to me like Karl Rove’s a man that enjoys God like status in the Republican party is the purveyor of the worst problem to ever hit the world and the President is his too willing tool.

Todays Thought: A high price for one but a message to Terrorists!
Taking into account that we just talked about the changes in airline security two days ago this incident with a passenger getting shot and killed really strikes home. You listen to the course of events and all the facts and you have to admit that the air marshal acted appropriately and did the right thing. When you have a passenger running hysterically through the plane yelling that he had a bomb if his backpack what do you expect. His wife was yelling that the man was Bipolar so you have to feel for them both. You know though that they had to shoot him. If all the terrorists had to do to keep you from preventing terrorism was to say that a suspect has a medical problem then we would be in serious trouble.
In this case the Air Marshals ordered the man to the ground and he refused. End of discussion in today’s environment. After the shooting all the luggage was put on the tarmac. The dogs were brought in, found a couple of suspicious bags and as a result they were blown up as they should have been. I’m sure any of us would have been a bit nervous but as they should have to ensure the plane was secure the police boarded the plane and had everyone put their hands on their heads. I’m sure it was all scary but everything seems to have worked as it should have. Like you, I feel bad for the victim but it does send a strong message to any potential terrorist threatening your safety. In turn I would think it in the end makes passengers feel a little more secure knowing they are being looked after.

Todays Thought on Torture Camp Realities, You Decide!
Let’s give Condi Rice a little evaluation time by we the people, average Americans in the trenches of society. First, we know for a fact that she will not and cannot be honest. She will make the President look good at all costs. As we all know that is what she has done right from the start including the 9/11 commission hearings. This as we all know is why she has been promoted to Secretary Of state. We also know she is no dummy but the loyalty to a fault is the most important requirement. The President as we all can agree at this point cannot be trusted or believed. With that in mind you know Condi Rice and others will go to any measure to make him appear honest and law abiding.
In defense and in sync with the Presidents insistence that the U.S. does not torture or will not fly suspected terrorists to countries that do she of course denies that this is being done. Condi during her visit to Europe denied the existence of any so called torture
camps. Whether there was or not you can decide for yourself. Listening to others of the same mind, some of us are convinced that in fact there was. You can be guaranteed that Condi is doing her now famous dance around the straight answer and the actual facts. You can bet that in fact the U.S. is not flying suspected terrorists to European countries thus enabling Condi to appear to be able to answer that question honestly. You can also bet that we have been turning our heads if we have to, but have facilitated others to do it for us.
You can also bet that when she said there were no torture camps or suspected terrorists in Europe as she said, that by that time there were none. Again she was able to appear as being truthful. As rumors are now saying, they were flown out of Europe ahead of Condi’s visit. They are rumored to have been flown to African countries. Who knows, you like me will decide for yourself. I know many of you do not agree with me on this. With that said it is my own opinion that suspected terrorists that are most often caught armed to the teeth, fighting to the death, and already having killed Americans allies or innocents, should be treated accordingly.
They should be taken by interested countries to those countries for proper interrogation. I do not agree with torture but unconventional methods are often necessary. I feel whatever it takes to get to the truth as long as we remain moral then so be it. Your life may depend on it. These are not innocents, boy scouts, or conventional combatants we are talking about here. Some I know do not like it or agree but we must act accordingly.

Thought for the day: Airlines security changes,what do you think?
We might not like it, but disseminate all the information unbiasedly and you too might think the Government is doing the right thing in the changes involving airline security. At first light you listen to the changes proposed by the TSA (transportation Security administration) and you first thought has to be, what on earth are they thinking? Listen to all this and think it through rationally and independently and you might thing otherwise.
When I first heard that 6 inch screw drivers and 4 inch knives would be allowed, like you I thought this was ludicrous. Having in mind that I have been saying from the get go that we must all hold ourselves personally accountable and get involved, think about this. 6 inch screwdrivers and 4 inch blades will be allowed on board. As one passenger said, do you realize how much damage that will do to a person? This is true but think about this, there will also be increased random searches and more efficient pat downs. The time saved by no longer looking for items that can do personal harm but not bring down a plane can now be better spent. There will be more time spent in searching for explosives and other means of bringing down an aircraft.
If terrorists were able to make it onto a plane they would know under cover security agents were amongst the passengers ready to take appropriate action and neutralize the situation. Passengers themselves are increasingly wary. Passengers will now jump in knowing their lives and the lives of others are in fact at stake. Cockpit doors are now reinforced. Pilots have the option of arming themselves and taking self defense courses. Chances therefore of a terrorist being able to bring down a passenger jet will be minimized. It makes sense that pilots like the proposed changes but stewards, stewardesses, passengers, and others in the cabin, don’t like them. These are normal emotions because these changes are not likely to affect the pilot’s or the aircraft. They do however put the passengers and the crew in the cabin in further danger. They are in the cabin so it is their lives that would be put in further danger not the pilots or the TSA’s unless we learn another hard lesson. Thinking through all the rhetoric I for one came to the conclusion that this seems like the best course of events. As far as I’m concerned these changes sound positive. Once these changes are accomplished they should start focusing their attention on outward means of bringing down a passenger jet or any aircraft for that matter. What do you think about all this?

The current Government is inadequate & we Must help ourselves!
As we all know, the government on all levels for whatever reason failed miserably with Katrina. The levees to say the least were inadequately maintaned on a State & Federal level. Now we hear rumors of the people threatening to rebuild the levees themselves to make sure they are done right. I'm sorry to say that it has come to that but it has come to that. That attitude is needed everywhere. As I will continue to say, the current Government at least cannot handle it. We must get personally involved. We can't count on the Government right now to do the right thing. It isn't just the politically charged border insecurity and illegal immigration issue. It isn't just the fiasco of Katrina and Rita. It isn't just the mishandling of Iraq or the war against terrorism. It isn't just the overspending by these so called financially conservative Republicans. It isn't just the so called compassionate conservatives massive abuse of the lower classes. neither is it their inefficiency, insistence on homeland insecurity, or their obvious say one thing and do another policies. It is everything everywhere, we can not trust or rely on the administration. This ineptitude starts at the top and goes right to the bottom, it is all pervasive. We must wake up and get personally involved.

Flash! America in I.C.U and only we can get her out
We know President Bush is Inept.
We know V. P. Cheney is Corruptive.
Sctry of State Rumsfeld is Unorthodox.
Sadly our fate is in their hands. We are in I.C.U. and sadly they are in charge of it.
Listening to the presidents plan and the political response to it, you realize none of them have a clue as to reality olny their own selfish interests.
After listening to the presidents ridiculous rosy financial picture, living reality and hearing the bleak picture painted by retiring Greenspan who can now be honest and his warnings are not good for America. You have to conclude that we are in serious trouble and no one in power seems to care or do anything about it. This is Bush's I.C.U. and as you know, no matter how good the care is only you can get yourself out. It is up to us, we the people to get us out of Bush's ICU.
