After 2 year publishing delay, Bush Admin. releases masterpiece Strategy for Victory. Novel universally panned by war critics.

I caught most of Bush's speach yesterday streaming on NPR. While he sounded well rehearsed, it seemed to be full of the same old rhetoric that he's been rehashing for the last two years. What did shock me though, is how quickly he worked 9/11 into his speech! A mere 27 seconds in...

It's the first year that every class of midshipmen at this academy arrived after the attacks of September the 11th, 2001. Each of you have volunteered to wear our nation's uniform in a time of war, knowing all the risks and dangers that accompany military service.

Our citizens are grateful for your devotion of duty. And America's proud of the men and women at the U.S. Naval Academy.


I sat there and tried to remember all the Iraqi's that were on those four planes that attacked our country. Funny. I couldn't remember one of them being from Iraq. Maybe Saudi Arabia or Egypt. Apparently, they still want to trod out the ol' guilty by association horse and pony show. Still, 80% of the public doesn't buy that anymore.

I did however, come across a sure connection between Al Quaida and Hussein... as shown below:
(From a recent press release from the Whitehouse, justifying the bombing of
Iraq)

1. In December of 2002, actor Sean Penn went to Baghdad,
home of Saddam Hussein.




2. Sean Penn is married to actress Robin Wright Penn.




3. Robin Wright Penn made the movie "Forrest Gump" with Tom
Hanks.




4. Tom Hanks made the film "Apollo 13" with Kevin Bacon.




5. Kevin Bacon made a Visa card commercial with Indian-born character actor
Sahid Benjali.




6. Sahid Benjali used to bartend at the Lingerie Club in Hollywood.
In the early 80's he served drinks to Carmen bin Laden, a former USC
student, who is Osama's sister-in-law (estranged).






There you have it! Bring out the big guns!!!!

Universal Healthcare or Corporate Welfare?

Ever since Hillary Clinton's overreaching Universal Health Care project fell flat in the 90's, we constantly hear Republicans tying the very idea of government sponsored healthcare to Communism and Socialism. Privatization supposedly offers more choices and provides a lower overall cost to the consumer. In theory, they are somewhat correct. In practice, however, that is not the case. The healthcare industry is rapidly consolidating. There are maybe five major players nationally at this point, and as with what is happening to many American industries, you can pretty much make a safe bet that in the next few years, there will be even less choices. Much of this is due to deregulatory legislation that has been very healthy for corporate America over the last few years. I think this is one of the major drawbacks of an unfettered Capitalistic economy. When there are no stops in place, the Corporation is allowed to grow and absorb all that it can, thus eliminating competition and incr...

Right Wing Cheerleader of the Week Award

Image
I'm a frequent reader of right wing propaganda. I'll admit that. I think there are quite a few decent, straight forward Republicans out there who run excellent commentary on their blogs. They are typically warm and open to respectful debate. Mike M. 's blog is a good example. However, I am convinced that there are some real nut jobs out in the blogosphere, who's primary goal is to berate and destroy any opposition to their polar ideology. So, with all due respect, I've opted to create a weekly award to highlight randomly selected right wing nutjobs' hate filled contribution to our online community as well as the political landscape. This section will appropriately be labeled "The Right Wing Cheerleader of the Week Award", in honor of everyone's favorite Yale cheerleader! Without any further ado, this week's Right Wing Cheerleader of the Week Award is given to Ottman, over at The Creative Conservative . Otto is a fearless general of mis-informa...

How to Cheat, Lie, and Steal and Blame it on Your Opponent - For Dummies

Image
Blognonymous has a great post on a new Washington Post chart that basically shows what Democrats have said all along... Abramhoff was lining three Republican pockets for every one Democrat pocket. But if you read sites like anti-Dem No Agenda or Espella Humanzee , you'll see how Republican apologists are trying to spin the whole "they did it too so it's okay" arguement. In fact, No Agenda makes no note of the blatent corruption happening on their side of the aisle. Typical. Still, I haven't heard squat from the MSM about Bush's $100,000 in campaign contributions received from the lobbyist. Of that $100,000, the Administration has agreed to return 6% of the amount to charity. That's kinda like donating a small portion of your bank robbery pot to the Red Cross.
