Why "They" Hate Us

October 19, 2009

Glenn Greenwald…
"One of the most astounding feats in propaganda is how we've managed to take people who live in a country which we invade, bomb and occupy — and who fight against us because we're doing that — and call them "Terrorists," thereby "justifying" continuing to bomb and occupy their country further."
That sentence may not [...]

U.S. Blocks Investigation Into Israeli War Crimes

October 17, 2009

A call to, at least, investigate….
The U.N. Human Rights Council voted Friday to endorse a Gaza war crimes report that calls on Israel and Hamas to investigate alleged abuses, or face possible referral to international war crimes prosecutors.
What was the U.S. position?

The Nobel Peace Prize

October 10, 2009

I must say that I really haven't been surprised by the response of conservatives and Village-whore media to President Obama's winning of the Nobel Peace Prize yesterday. From the start of his presidency it has been made clear that the main objective of Obama's instant-opposition has been to see Obama "fail." Winning a prestigious award [...]

Uniquely Exceptional Quagmire

October 7, 2009

The United States is a uniquely exceptional country in the world and always has been. Take the former Soviet Union as an example of how superior the US. is. The Soviets were silly enough to allow communist authoritarians to rule over them. The U.S., on the other hand, is a much more advanced society in [...]

Enemies of the State

October 3, 2009

The 2016 Olympics went to Rio, Brazil……conservatives celebrate America's loss.
Consider the glee by America's new enemies…..
Beck: "Oh, it's so sweet" that Chicago's bid failed; "savor this moment."
Breitbart website: "It is kind of like the world community saying to President Obama, 'Not only no, but Hell No.' "
Limbaugh: For those "upset that I sound gleeful [...]

Exceptionally Imbecilic

October 2, 2009

Yesterday, the House voted 258-163 to approve a non-binding recommendation prohibiting the transfer of detainees from Guantanamo to the U.S. for trial or imprisonment. 88 Democrats voted with the majority.
Here's the typical defense for continuing, indefinitely, American offshore gulags…..
"There is no reason these terrorists, who pose a serious and documented threat to our nation, [...]

Crystal Balling It

September 30, 2009

No, crystal balling it ain't as arousing or provocative as, say, Teabagging it…but crystal balling it is a bit more coherent and understandable than TeaBagging it…so there's that.
One year ago on October 13th, in a blog post entitled, The Upcoming Obama Presidency, The Reverend typed out these predictions….
".…..after having paid very close attention to what [...]

A Case Study In Disinformation

September 26, 2009

In a capitalistic society like ours where even "news" is consumed according to brandname, FOX, NBC etc, just like Cheerios or Wheaties……disinformation becoming rampant, I guess, is inevitable.
Today's capitalistic information providers seem to be pulling off the impossible, i.e., convincing Americans that they can have whatever facts they so desire. A kind of designer-news-and-information boutique, [...]

Partly Funny With A Chance Of Crazy

September 25, 2009

The imaginative Steve King (R-IA) says that gay marriage is a "purely socialistic concept."
Have you noticed how conservatives and Republicans see socialistic threats, like, everywhere? Damn odd, if you ask me.
Here's Rep. King in the House explaining how President Barack Obama is the "star of ACORN, the lead, chief organizer."

King is a wild and crazy [...]

Is Political Violence Part Of The Plan?

September 18, 2009

Nancy Pelosi made some very sobering comments yesterday about the potential for political violence inside America….
"I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw this myself in the late '70s in San Francisco, this king of rhetoric. … It created a climate in which violence took place. … I [...]
