Tastes Like Chicken

May 12, 2009

The script writers for the teevee program "24" should be hired by our defense department as full time military planners. Eliminate the middle men. That way our great protector-leaders can skip over all the liberal whining horsesh*t over torture and get down to protecting us like real men should. Why bother with pansy-assed anti-torture appeasers [...]

How Many Americans Must Die For Bush?

May 6, 2009

Philip Gourevitch of The New Yorker writes…
"When one of the prisoners resisted, (Corporal Charles) Graner later told Army investigators, “I bashed him against the wall.” Running hooded prisoners into walls was also standard practice at Abu Ghraib, but this prisoner fell to the floor, and blood ran out from under his hood, and a medic [...]

Obama On Torture & State Secrets

May 2, 2009

All the Very Serious People in the Village, as well as all the usual-suspect Rush-Fox-Dick-Newtie types, have proceeded to build mountains out of the tiny molehill Obama gave them to work with in his answer on Wednesday night about torture. Obama seemed to agree with the 'for-torture' crowd when he said this….
"not because there might [...]

Gangsters, Banksters, & Serious News People

May 1, 2009

Soon, the new revelations about the criminal gangsters of torture, aka the George W. Bush administration, will quietly, and with the whore-media leading the way, be swept under the rug. Of this, I have no doubt.
Our representative democracy will, as it did during the Ford administration, set yet another precendent in defense of lawlessness, [...]

Torturing Detainees Cost American Lives

April 29, 2009

Conservatives, arguing that Bush era torture crimes should not be investigated or prosecuted, have chosen to resort to a slogan in defending their position. Torture, "saved American lives". Therefore, the slogan implies, torture should not be prosecuted as a crime.
Not only is the slogan not factual, the truth is just the opposite of the slogan. [...]

Enhance This

April 28, 2009

War on terror. Evil-doers. Axis of evil. Islamofascists. Mission accomplished. The Patriot Act. Weapons of mass destruction. Operation: Iraqi Freedom.
Phrases, words, memes,……which have no comprehensible meaning by themselves, some are even oxymoronic,…..all repeatedly written and spoken to mislead, to make Americans think one thing is really something else entirely.
An American war of aggression, a [...]

The GOP Is Getting Even More Extreme

April 24, 2009

I shouldn't be surprised, really. I mean, W. came out of Texas, so I shouldn't be surprised to find that one half of Texas Republicans polled now think the state should secede from the United States.
"Do you approve or disapprove of Governor Rick Perry's suggestion that Texas may need to leave the United States?"

The Reckoning

April 23, 2009

Today's Akron Beacon Journal editorial has it wrong. That comes as no surprise to me. Those who write the editorials for the Beacon have been way behind the Bush curve for years. There would be no reason to expect a change now.
The editorial calls the Bush-Cheney torture regime "a failure of imagination". Sorry…. [...]

Despicable New York Times Article

April 22, 2009

I'm sick to death of reading mindlessly written bullsh*t like this from todays' NY Times….
This extraordinary consensus (to torture) was possible,… largely because no one involved — not the top two C.I.A. officials who were pushing the program, not the senior aides to President George W. Bush, not the leaders of the Senate and House [...]

Jane Harman (D-CA): Bush Co-Conspirator

April 21, 2009

From 2002-2006 Republicans controlled Congress by an ever-so-slight margin, so if Bush-Cheney were to be successful in carrying out their criminal plans against America and some foreign countries, it would take the help of, at least, a few congressional Democrats.
A prime example of the veracity of this claim is found in Senator Jay Rockefeller's [...]
