Weighing "The Necessity Of Detention"

December 22, 2010

Of all of the policy differences I had with the still-unindicted Bush-Cheney regime, it was the "war on terror" extremities which were the most unAmerican and criminal. Extraordinary rendition…..kidnapping someone in one country and transporting that person to another country to be tortured. Torture……sleep deprivation, heat and cold deprivation, hanging from arms by chains, being [...]

Torturing Bradley Manning

December 16, 2010

One of the most regrettable practices our nation has embraced and defended over the last 10 years is the practice of torturing those we have incarcerated. Nothing is more cowardly than punishing a person who can not defend himself…..either physically or psychologically. The moment the news leaked to the world that America had adopted torture [...]

Conspiring For Criminals

December 3, 2010

In June of 2009 I blogged this…. There's no question now that Obama is pro-actively working to protect the Bush/Cheney criminal syndicate from any and all accountability. If Obama's administration continues down this path, and there's no reason to think otherwise, then Obama, himself, will be complicit in the obstruction of justice coverup of the [...]

Neo-Con Fringers Struggle With Insanity

November 19, 2010

The jury decision to convict one of the accomplices of the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombing in Africa, Ahmed Ghailani, on one count of conspiracy to blow up U.S. government buildings has created another round of insanity to break out amongst the usual-suspect conservative fringers. The trial was held in New York federal court because America [...]

2010 War Criminal Book Tour

November 9, 2010

Matt Lauer: (quoting from the American war criminal's new book) "It (9-11) redefined duty and it would redefine my job. I could never forget what happened to America that day. I would pour my heart and soul into protecting this country, whatever it took." Lauer: It took two wars, it took thousands of lives, American [...]

Travesty Of Justice In Nebraska?

November 5, 2010

There is a significant injustice going on out in Nebraska. One that needs everyone's attention. That's how egregious the injustice is. If injustices like the one currently being carried out in Lincoln, Nebraska are allowed to continue, then no American male will ever be safe….ever again. A 22 year old man from Lincoln was suspicious [...]

Looking Backward, Not Forward

September 16, 2010

President Barack Obama has stated repeatedly over the past 21 months that he prefers to "look forward, not backward", which meant, and still means, that he didn't, and still doesn't, want to bog down his presidency by illuminating the collossal failures and rampant criminality of the Republican leaders, Bush-Cheney. This gracious gesture on Obama's part, [...]

Wagging That Dog

September 10, 2010

Embarassment isn't a sufficient enough word anymore…..doesn't quite capture the powerlessness one feels as one watches a nation disintegrate into a state of ignorant confusion. On 9-11, 19 extremist Muslims hijacked planes and crashed them into buildings killing almost 3000 U.S. citizens. We were told by the president at the time that those 19 attackers [...]

It's Gonna' Be So Great

September 3, 2010

The voting machines haven't even been set up yet and already the Republicans, drool sloppily dripping uncontrollably from their mouthes, are pissing in their pants with excitement over the prospect of…..shutting the government down. Steve Benen at the Washington Monthly… Likely Senate candidate Joe Miller (R) in Alaska told Fox News last week that GOP [...]

Post-Reality America

July 15, 2010

Okay. The strategy has been clear for over a year and a half. Erase reality. Never allow reality to see the light of day, at least not from mass corporate media sources. Feature the 'controversy', never explain what is true and what isn't. Air as often as possible the wildest statements from the farthest-right conservative [...]
