Neo-Con William Kristol gets creamed.
Some might say that it's in appropriate to act in such a manner. I say that he's lucky to get just that. A reasonable response to what he advocates might be a 1000lb bomb on his house with all of his innocent and defenseless children and grandchildren inside.

Horrific isn't it? I don't wish it upon him. So why does he wish it upon the people of the Middle East?

Check out the estimated Iraqi Body Count. There is some information (caution, graphic images) that the US government won't give you. Notice all of the children. How do you justify THAT, neo-con motherfuckers?

Ok. She's dead. My condolences to her family and a big FUCK YOU to the media and right wingers who a) will keep this issue alive and b) made it a public issue to begin with. What does a Christian who believes in an everlasting afterlife want to spend extra years attached on life-support for (unless he/she knows they're going to burn in hell...)?

This is an insightful and well-informed article on this issue and the last you'll hear about it from me. I have a living will to write.

The 9/11 Secret in the CIA's Back Pocket
"The Bush administration is suppressing a CIA report on 9/11 until after the election, and this one names names. Although the report by the inspector general's office of the CIA was completed in June, it has not been made available to the congressional intelligence committees that mandated the study almost two years ago.

"'It is infuriating that a report which shows that high-level people were not doing their jobs in a satisfactory manner before 9/11 is being suppressed,' an intelligence official who has read the report told me, adding that 'the report is potentially very embarrassing for the administration, because it makes it look like they weren't interested in terrorism before 9/11, or in holding people in the government responsible afterward.'"

I'm a little pissed off and though I rarely write this much in here.. bear with me; or don't, I don't really care.

I was watching some nonsense local news this morning and they were polling people about the upcoming election and, damn, I got fed up. A young African American female college student said, "I Like George Bush. I like The No Child Left Behind thing." What an idiot! I know I'm supposed to respect that people have different opinions and blah balh blah but this chick clearly either cannot or will not read. Bush doesn't fund No Child Left Behind so if you vote for him because of that you're a simple-minded fool who's putting your life, liberty, and pursuit of inane shiny objects on the line based on a bit of flimsy rhetoric.

Of course, it's more likely that she doesn't have a real opinion of her own and was simple grasping for an answer so she could be on TV. Isn't that the ultimate goal of every Amurriken these days? Get on TV and get a million dollars? Sorry, moron, soon that million dollars won't be enough to gas up your SUV for a week because you let this Republitard walk the Earth thinking he's king of the world. Just because you want a president who thinks Jesus Christ is his personal savior. By the way, I hate to break it you but, a guy who may or may not have lived and died 2000 years ago isn't going to save you from shit. You want a savior? Hire a bodyguard. You want to pray to an all-mighty heavenly force? Don't expect me to really respect that. You wouldn't respect me if I steered clear of black cats, would you? There's about as much proof in one as in the other.

Lets get back to the president for another minute. If you're still reading, you probably aren't undecided but, I bet you have some friends and family who are thinking Bush is a good choice. Ask yourself, "Do I really care about this person? Are they usually a thinking person?" and, if the answers are yes, slap them. Hard. Twice. Give them the straight facts. Point out that George W. Bush is such a fanatic that he honestly thinks that the "jury is still out" on Evolution. Newsflash: It's not just a theory anymore! (What does he think, that an all-mighty intelligence whipped us up out of the ether? If that's the case then he'd better admit to believing in aliens visiting Earth because there's his God, right there.)

Next, point out that in 2000 Bush said he was going to restore accountability to the White House (which was his way of saying that, if he got a blow job, he'd admit it) and yet he later told Bob Woodward the following:

"I'm the commander - see, I don't need to explain why I say things. That's the interesting thing about being the president. Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they say something, but I don't feel like I owe anybody an explanation."

Look, people, this shit is ridiculous. Wake the fuck up and if you are awake, kick the dozing drone beside you or, before long, it'll be past the point of no return.

The following was forwarded to me from a reliable source:
"I spoke with Sy Hersh recently after delivering some documents to him (you'll read more on this in mid-September), and found him bubbling as ever, with a focus on the terror alert announced on Saturday. He says he has some information about this from a tipster at the Department of Homeland Security and also some information from a White House source close to [Karl] Rove.
In sum, he says that Gov. Dean's charge that this is all political manipulation is 100% correct. The data that was the basis of the alert has in fact been in US hands for two years plus and was previously rejected as a basis for an alert due to its staleness. A decision to go to alert status came from within the White House and was driven by a strategy that Rove has been fine tuning for two years on fear manipulation as an election tool.
Also, as The New Republic previously reported, the arrests in Pakistan that provided the "context" for these alerts was also scripted and agreed in advance between Musharraf and GOP officials. Rove has very detailed research which purports to show that terror alerts can be manipulated to drive support for Bush. Rove is looking for a series of such alerts with growing intensity up to the election date. The alerts will all be timed to divert attention away from Kerry whenever he scores an important success or has a positive appearance. Rove originally planned to announce this alert on Friday, but others in the White House felt this timing would be too obvious, so it was put back a day. Brian Ross at ABC News has been working on a story on this."
Now this is the sort of thing that many of us expected. Manipulate the media and the fears of the public to keep focus off the fact that this administration has repeatedly lied to the American people and the World ever since they stole power in 2000. People, do us all a favor and get out and vote. Not only that, but, get everyone you know to vote too. It's in the best interest of the nation and the world. Honestly, if you want the people of the United States to deserve any respect in the world, you need to make it your mission to get these people out of office.

Without really knowing it, I've long been a fan of Ricky Jay. You may recognize him from such movies as Boogie Nights, House Of Games, or, most recently, HBO's Deadwood. He's written up in the June edition of Smithsonian Magazine.

Now he's not just an actor; thats more of a sideline than anything. He's a master illusionist and a historian of all things magical and altogether unusual. He's performed on stage and written several books. Check him out.

Put on your tinfoil hats, spike the Kool-Aid and get a few grains of salt with which to view the following sites. I don't know if i believe any of this one hundred percent but I do believe in questioning what my government tells me; especially this government.

Here are a few choice foilhead sites:
InfoWars
Break For News
Conspiracy Planet
U.N. Observer

These particular pages are about the death of Nick Berg. My sympathies go out to his family but, at the same time, I have questions. Lets start with: "When did AlQueda start issuing orange jump suits to its prisoners?" Is that some sort of devious irony connected to the strikingly similar garb issued at Guantanamo Bay?

Lastly I'll leave you with this link: a sort of clearinghouse and link farm to various foilhead sites - What Really Happened.
