July 2005

07-18-05   Basically the new Republican House Plan For Social Security Is that If you Choose a private account you loose the Guarantee of any Social Security Benefits at all. See Story Here Or If the link is down Click Here

So let's say you loose everything in your account to say something like say ENRON... or World Com... now you don't have a dam thing to fall back on, But The CEO.s of the failed companies get to keep all your money and now you...you get nothing, not even Social Security.

Just like everything else they the cannot destroy all in one shot they will destroy one piece at a time. This time by again attacking "F.D.R.'S New Deal" in spite of the overwhelming national opposition to changing Social Security so they will do what they do best, if all else fails... Dismantle the program one brick at a time 

07-19-05   We Now Have the Next Big Distraction From the Bush Administration.

Every time the Bush and the republican party gets caught with their hand in the cookie jar it's stall, lie...stall, lie...and stall and lie some more. Then create another disturbance even bigger than the last one and while no one is minding the store the old "last big issue" gets swept under the rug. Just a refresher to the last few forgotten items, "Osama dead or alive", no armor for the troops, Halliburton lost millions of dollars, billions of dollars allocated for Iraq are still missing, Enron... Tom Delay... Downing Street Memo...Karl Rove. So now he nominates someone of very strong conservative background that believes that Roe ( Of Roe v Wade) should be over turned, even though 60% of the country does not want it overturned. In a brief Roberts had filed with the Supreme Court while serving as deputy solicitor general in the Reagan administration. In the decision, Roberts said "Roe was wrongly decided and should be overruled," referring to Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that established a woman's right to abortion. It looks like Bush has picked the next "Big Distraction" to take the heat off his good buddy Karl Rove, or should I say Karl Rove picked the Next "Big Distraction" to take the heat off himself?

You want to wake up from this nightmare? 

Then we need to Impeach George, put him in a federal prison, along with Dick, Karl, Delay, Bill (as in Frist), and all the rest for treason and lying us into a war for no other reason except Profit... profit for a handful of select few. 

Guess what? You didn't make the list of the select few.

In the mean time contact your Senator and tell them NOT To Confirm John G. Roberts

07-21-05  House and Senate Democrats, plan their own forum Friday .Senate Republican Congressional Committee Chair Elizabeth Dole declared, "It is incredibly irresponsible for individuals and organizations to make accusations based on rumor and innuendo. It is unfair to the investigation and even more unfair to Karl Rove."

Does anything about the highlighted line sound at all familiar?

The Supreme Court used similar langue to stop the vote count in Florida saying that a recount would do irreparable harm to the candidate, meaning Bush. I think that you Republicans need some new lines the old ones are wearing a little thin.

07-21-05  Washington Post Above The Fold ...Valerie Plame's Name Was Marked Secret In The Memo

CIA Operative's Identity Was Secret, Memo Says Any Bush administration official who read the document should have been aware information was classified, say government officials.

OK Karl, Bush, and all you Righties! Now we all know, that you knew, and the proof is in the memo Valerie Plame's name was marked SECRET.

SECRET means you cannot tell any one (as the law reads) "You cannot divulge the persons identity", by saying Joe Wilson's wife you in effect gave away her Identity. Joe Wilson only has one wife.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

07-28-05  CAFTA Passed By 2 Votes  Republicans hold the vote open illegally to get CAFTA passed by 2 votes.    Tom Delay Did it again the vote was against it when the time expired for the vote and then Tom Delay broke the house rules and held the voting open for an additional 2 hours till he twisted enough arms to get the votes to pass the bill. What this means is that American jobs will be subject to even more OUTSOURCING. 

    We need to stop chasing the next shiny object and stay on point. If we did months ago perhaps Tom Delay would have already gone down and his replacement would have never tried this stunt knowing that there would be repercussions. But what have we got now? Rumsfeld, dropped to chase Halliburton, dropped to chase Delay, dropped to chase the  Downing street memo, dropped to chase Rove, dropped to chase Roberts. What do we have to show for it? Just a lot of exposed stories allowed to fade into memory and the same bunch or criminals running everything as before, but doing even more horrific things, ignoring the laws and screwing America.

07-30-05   Something I read at http://www.wwmeli.org/PostElection/ back when it was first posted and to this day NO Main Stream media has even come close to raising or asking the Question. What Do You Think?

2005-07-04 How did all these fireworks get here?

Well it’s 4^th of July and there are fireworks shooting into the sky from every neighborhood on Long Island . Yes, that’s Long Island NY and if you were sending a truck or car full of fireworks to this area (only Grucci specialty fireworks are made here) it would pass through the City of NY on the way. Don’t we have new security measures, truck inspections, explosive detectors and other measures that would prevent all these explosives from entering NYC? How did they all get here? I’m not talking about a few fire crackers and bottle rockets in a car, I’m talking about huge quantities of every possible type of pyrotechnic display. What’s going on here?

    Will Tony Blair spin the wheel of Arabic misfortune and attack the one it points to? Or maybe a more measured approach and choose Iran as the next target.  I will be interesting to see if reason prevails in England and the next move will be to hunt down the people who committed the crime. We cannot keep up the doctrine that says "We have the right to revenge and if the innocent get in the way..." This action reaction is only getting worse. Ever since Bush went off on his mission of finding WMD... no change that, freeing the Iraqi people... no change that, bringing freedom and Democracy to...no change that, getting... you know the reason has changed so many times I'm not sure what the official reason is anymore. 

I do know this though.

There were no terrorist in Iraq before Bush Invaded an unarmed nation. and yes unarmed, they had no air force, no ground defenses, no ground to air defenses, no tanks and we now know, most certainly no weapons of mass destruction.

There are now an estimated 250,000 terrorist there now. Funny but when you think about Bush and Rumsfield told us over 2 years ago there was to be 250,000 trained Iraqi troops there now? Then we were told there would be 250,000 trained troops there by the end of last year, in his speech just 2 weeks ago Bush Claimed 160,00 trained troops, and the reality is about 60,000. Why is it we send our American citizens into a war with 13 weeks of training to fight for another country and in over 2 years we cannot train Iraqi's to fight for themselves. Could it be that the very troops that we train that later dessert the American Iraqi army and now with their new found training become part of the insurgency army? Just a thought.

By official count 80,000 Iraqi civilians are now dead, Iraqi citizens are being killed at a faster rate than under Sadum. Every time an innocent person is "collateral damage"... isn't that such a nice way of putting it "collateral damage", rather than calling it like it is, an innocent person was killed, and for what? For having the misfortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Before under Sadum at least you knew what would get you killed. Weather it was speaking out against Sadum or his government of against his policies. Now it can happen any time anywhere for no reason at all except that some one decided that your death would be acceptable "collateral damage".  Does  "collateral damage" make you feel less guilty over killing someone, someone who's only crime was just being there. Someone's mother or son or wife! Does "collateral damage" somehow make it right? Could that family and friends of the "collateral damage" become so enraged with grief that they will now stop at nothing to avenge the death of their family? Is that not the right we claimed on 911? 

  Here's a historical prospective for you. Man as a whole has waged war against each other from our very beginning. From a time before Islam, or Christianity, or any religion, or belief system. Religion has only given man a curtain to hide the face of prejudice and greed behind.
There has been the rise of one Empire after another. Each claiming the same mantel of justification, that "we must kill them before they kill us". The reality each Empire wanted the resources of the country they invaded. That is exactly what this is about, it's all about oil. It's about those who will control it. It's about people on both sides lying to everyone so that the masses can be convinced to hate the other side.
Why is it small children of all race and religions play together and get along? Can it be because they do not know the meaning of religion, money, or power?
If you feel so strongly against the Islamic people then why is it, there was no outrage when this president was committing the lives of Americans to bring, freedom and Democracy to Iraq, which the last time I looked that country was mostly Islamic.
So which is it save them or bomb them, you can't have it both ways.

Maybe when we stop allowing a handful of people from using hate and fear and the power of a military to plunder the wealth of other countries, so it can be taken by the few, maybe perhaps then there will be peace.

Until then it seems that it is up to the few to try to bring reason and peace to the many.

    Below is a list of the Supreme Court judges and the president that appointed them to the court. Take note 7 of the 9 were appointed by a Republican President. Of the 7  appointments, 4 were by two of the most criminally involved administrations to date prior to the Bush administration.1 by Nixon for Watergate. 3 by Reagan with Iran Contra, which involved the US government by selling drugs to raise money to buy guns and military equipment to give to a country that the congress specifically said not to get involved with. Then 1 by Ford who took over for Nixon and later pardoned Nixon of any wrong doing after his impeachment. As to the remaining 2 of the 7 they were appointed by Bush Senior, who by the way was part of the Reagan Whitehouse as the VP for those of you that do not know. As to the last two they were appointed by Clinton, who was impeached, for having sex and then saying he didn't.

Could there be any correlation that our country has had a steadily sift to the hard Right?

Could there be any correlation and the loss of individual freedoms because the highest court in the land has been packed by criminal presidents, who believed that the law was not for them and that they chose to ignore the laws. I might add that they were not punished by the law either, for whatever reason.

Could there be a correlation between the rise of corporate dominance and the loss of American manufacturing and the middle class in the name of a buck or should I say a Yen or a Euro?

Could there be any correlation between to loss of our freedom to make choices for ourselves and the politicians ever increasing control over our lives?

For those of you that vote Republican and don't like what is now happening in America consider this the next time you vote.

Thought Of The Day

07-04-05   The Truth Is Starting To Come Out That Over 9,000 American Solders Have Died In Iraq What Is It Going To Take For You To FINALLY GET INVOLVED AND SAY ENOUGH!!!!

07-24-05   You Want To Wake Up From This Nightmare? Then We Need To Impeach George, Put Him In A Federal Prison, Along With Dick, Carl, Delay, Bill (as in Frist), And All The Rest For Treason And Lying Us Into A War For No Other Reason Except Profit..............Profit For Them That Is

Consider This

07-10-05  We Are All Nothing But Cannon Farter To Those With Money And Just      Something To Turn A Profit On.

From Fox News' July 7 breaking news coverage between 1 and 2 p.m. ET:

SMITH: Some of the things you might expect to happen, for instance, a drop in the stock market and some degree of uncertainty across this country -- none of that really seen today, and I wonder if the timing of it -- that it happened in the middle of the night and we were able to get a sense of the grander scheme of things -- wasn't helpful in all this.

HUME: Well, maybe. The other thing is, of course, people have -- you know, the market was down. It was down yesterday, and you know, you may have had some bargain-hunting going on. I mean, my first thought when I heard -- just on a personal basis, when I heard there had been this attack and I saw the futures this morning, which were really in the tank, I thought, "Hmmm, time to buy." Others may have thought that as well. But you never know about the markets. But obviously, if the markets had behaved badly, that would obviously add to people's sense of alarm about it. But there has been a lot of reassurance coming, particularly in the way that -- partly in the way the Brits handled all this, but also in the way that officials here handled it. There seems to be no great fear that something like that is going to happen here, although there's no indication that we here had any advance warning.

Source for above: http://mediamatters.org/items/200507070007 

Bottom line... It's one thing to think it...It's another to not only say it, but to say it so that the people who have lost their family members can hear it is quite another story. 

What's that I here...?

(Chirp Chirp)

Nothing

Why is it that not one person... No in the Whitehouse, No one in the news, said Britt should Resign or at the very least apologize to the British citizens...!

Don't hold your breath!

Political smears by right-wingers are nothing new. In the election of 1800, John Adams had a surrogate newspaper publisher write an article about "Dusky Sally," the half-sister of Thomas Jefferson's deceased wife, who was also one of the Jefferson family slaves. Jefferson succeeded in avoiding the issue, and his friends pointed out that it was merely about his personal life, not national security.

George W. Bush may not be so fortunate.

Today comes the revelation in The Wall Street Journal that "A key department memo discussing Joseph Wilson's Niger trip was classified 'Top Secret,' and the passage about his wife's CIA role was specially marked 'S/NF' -- not to be shared with any foreign intelligence agencies."

Perhaps even more damning are reports that the Top Secret-S/NF document was apparently first delivered to Air Force One when George W. Bush and Colin Powell (who had apparently requested it from analysts within the State Department) were flying to Africa in 2003.

Somehow - nobody knows at the moment - the information in this Top Secret-S/NF document (the identity of Joe Wilson's wife) then migrated from Air Force One to George W. Bush's assistant, Karl Rove, and Dick Cheney's assistant, Scooter Libby. Rove and Libby then immediately began "dialing for dollars" - calling reporters with this juicy bit of Top Secret-N/SF information - in an attempt to politically assassinate Joe Wilson.

Which raises the question: "What did the President know, and when did he know it?"

It's unlikely that Colin Powell would have called Rove and Cheney (to give instructions to Libby) with the information in the memo - that was above his pay grade. Ditto for Ari Fleischer. And it's extremely doubtful that the pilots on the plane even knew about the explosive information they were carrying as they flew across the Atlantic.

Which leaves George W. Bush, as the only other person on that plane with the means, opportunity, and motive.

Thus, perhaps, the reports that Patrick Fitzgerald has now subpoenaed the phone logs of Air Force One.

Those of a certain age among us remember well the shocking moment when Nixon's lawyer, John Dean, confirmed to Congress that Nixon himself was involved in the Watergate scandal.

The urgency Bush brought to deciding on and releasing the name of John Roberts coincided relatively closely with a growing press awareness that the Sop Secret-S/NF memo with Plame's identity started it's long path to Bob Novak on Air Force One. Time - and an awakened press corps (and hopefully an awakened Congress) - will tell if Bush's own fingerprints are all over this treasonous act of political revenge.

 I seem to remember a lot of talk about "The Rule of Law" during Bill Clintons Impeachment trials, but to this administration they just seem to ignore all the rules and all the laws. They just blatantly lie… to not only the American public but the world as well. The truth is that the world knows about their lies. The truth is covered up with the cooperation of the media in this country. We need to expose every single one of these people, starting with, George W. Bush, then moving on to George Bush Sr., Ronald Reagan, Dick Chaney, Don Rumsfeld, John Bolton, and Karl Rove and the rest of all compliant parties in this lie. They need to be exposed. They need to be incarcerated for the rest of their lives, and their ill-gotten fortunes confiscated as is now done with drug enforcement laws, so that they do not ever come back again seeking to enrich their fortunes at the expense of American citizens or America’s good name. Thank You For All Your Work. You Sir, are a True Patriot.
