Guiliani Thinking Is "Outside The Box"

October 31, 2007

The stupid saying "thinking outside the box" has been with us for a bit now and has been used in a variety of ways for a variety of reasons. Thinking unconventionally, I believe, is the original intended meaning. Rudy Guiliani, for example, thought "thinking outside the box" meant he should remain as New York's mayor [...]

Freedom To Kill With Immunity

October 30, 2007

This will work out just oh-so-dandy….I'm quite sure….
The State Department promised Blackwater USA bodyguards immunity from prosecution in its investigation of last month's deadly shooting of 17 Iraqi civilians, The Associated Press has learned.
…
"Once you give immunity, you can't take it away," said a senior law enforcement official familiar with the investigation.
…
Three senior law [...]

If A War Protest Falls In The Woods And No One Hears It….

October 29, 2007

Anti-war protesting is just so boring. That must be why the Knee Pad U.S. MSM didn't much cover this weekend's protests. If an anti-war protest isn't heard or seen, did it really happen at all?
Tens of thousands of people have taken part in demonstrations against the war in Iraq in cities across the US.
Rallies took [...]

From The American Gulag Front….

October 29, 2007

You just know we're living in memorable times when something akin to "The American Gulag Report" is necessary, but hey….crazy times, we live in…..
An American military lawyer and veteran of dozens of secret Guantanamo tribunals has made a devastating attack on the legal process for determining whether Guantanamo prisoners are "enemy combatants".

A Tale Of Two Disasters

October 28, 2007

It's really something to behold. America's president commenting on Southern California fires the other day. Contrary to popular opinion that started sometime in 1999 or 2000, no one I know would like to sit down and have a beer with this president. Why? Basically because he's an immature pr*ck.
Commenting on any distinctions in response to [...]

Unbridgeable

October 27, 2007

Bear with me on this one. The Reverend's mind works mysteriously at times….that is, when it's working at all.
Nicole Belle at Crooks and Liars posted the top ten "dangers" to the U.S., considered to be so by FamilySecurityMatters.org, obviously a far right group. Think Progress, MoveOn.org, Media Matters and "universities and colleges" made the top [...]

King George Junior

October 26, 2007

When Alberto Gonzales stepped down as Attorney General I fully expected King George Junior to nominate a wingnut of significant proportion to fill Alberto's shoes. Instead, the King nominated Michael Mukasey, who, at first glance, didn't seem like your average neo-conservative attorney.
The Senate had some hearings with Mukasey. The first day was congenial enough, Then [...]

These guys kept watch lists too….for America's safety.
Everything old is new again.
Bush and Cheney are keeping us safe. Here's how they are doing it…..I mean besides invading and occupying a country that didn't have any of them there ter'rists in it, and emptying the U.S. Treasury…..
SCREENING FOR TERRORISM
The number of terror watch-list records [...]

Why Are They So Crazy?

October 25, 2007

You think the guy in the picture is crazy?
FOX media actually tried yesterday to tie Islamic terrorists in with the Southern California fire disaster. To which Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow responded….
KO: Why are these guys and the rest of the right so in love with the trappings of patriotism and at the same time, [...]

Rudy's Foreign Policy & The "Values Voters"

October 25, 2007

Rudy Guiliani has a foreign policy advisory group…umm…advising him on which middle eastern country he should attack should he (god forbid) be elected president….or in the remote chance that the Supreme Court selects him. You know, you can't rule that out.
Suffice it to say that if you like your foreign policy served up bloody, lawlessly [...]
