Alberto Gonzales, executioner of Liberty
November 21, 2007 | Filed Under News, War, government, scandals | Leave a Comment
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales was instrumental in helping President Bush send Americans off to get butchered in the middle east. He, like President Bush, is complicit in crimes that not only violate federal and international law, but do a number on the Constitution.
There is nothing about this administration that is good for America. We’ve lost so much of our essence to these murderers, and they sit around and smile. The smug look on their faces is enough to make any American gag. In the end, justice will prevail. Good WILL triumph over evil, it’s unfortunate that the rhetoric about good and evil is now best focused on our own country. Blood is on their hands and God will be the ultimate judge.
President Bush and Attorney Gonzales better come up with a better plan around the divine than “Weapons of Mass Destruction” and “God told me to invade Iraq” because lying won’t be an option.
Swiftboat Veterans afraid to defend own lies
November 21, 2007 | Filed Under War | Leave a Comment
Mr. Pickens, in true form of the leadership of Swift Boat “Veterans for truth” spent an evening in which he defended his John Kerry slander in public. He essentially issued a challenge in front of an American Spectator audience –you know, the “Patriots” that helped President Bush lie to get us into war to murder our children. Pickens said that he would give a million dollars to anyone who would prove any of the allegations against John Kerry as false. If you recall, the Swift Boat liars popped out of obscurity in 2004 to slander John Kerry and effectively help President Bush retain his position of power.
Now, for the drama:
John Kerry gladly accepted the challenge and promised to take the money to give back to VETERANS of the war. T Boone “Mr. Patriot, himself” Pickens took the offer off the table.
Dear Mr. Pickens,
Thank you for your response to my acceptance of your challenge.
I’m grateful that you are prepared to make good on your word and fulfill the offer you made publicly at the American Spectator Dinner in Washington, D.C. on November 6th.
I must remind you, however, that this was and is your “challenge,” not mine. You are, after all, the one who said explicitly at the dinner — in a way that was calculated to challenge any naysayer — that you would give one million dollars “to anyone who could show that anything the SBVT said was false.” (RedState.Com) These were your words — and nowhere did you ever suggest, as you are now trying to, that your challenge referred specifically and exclusively to any advertising by the SBVT.
As you know, the lies of the SBVT were not confined just to their ads; they were a constant barrage of television, radio, Internet, speeches, and forums in which — significantly bankrolled by you — they launched and repeated lie after lie. Your challenge expressly stood behind all of their allegations.
It is disturbing that in reaffirming the challenge you issued, your parsing and backtracking seems eerily reminiscent of the entire approach of the SBVT — say one thing, put out an allegation, then duck and weave, hedge and bob when your words catch up with you. I want to believe that this was not your intent because I am told that you are a man of your word, not “all hat and no cattle.”
Honor and duty, which you purport to defend, demand that you not selectively back away from your original challenge. Your offer clearly said — boldly, unequivocally — to an audience of your friends and supporters — that you would give “a million dollars to anyone who could prove wrong anything the Swiftboat Veterans charged about Kerry.” (AmericanThinker.com) In my letter, that is the offer which I accepted.
I was interested to read in your response that you don’t want to see the SBVT “maligned,” and that you aim “to prevent this important part of American history from being unfairly portrayed.” I accepted your offer precisely because I want to prevent the honorable records of the courageous men who served with me from being maligned by the repeated lies of this organization. I want to see the word “Swiftboat” restored to its original meaning — synonymous with honorable service to country, not political lies aimed to distort and divide. I would hope that your interests should also be in protecting the record of all those who served our country.
As I’ve said to you before, I am prepared to prove the lie and marshal all the evidence, the question is whether you are prepared to fulfill your obligation — no variations, no back pedaling, no retreat, no new bets, no changing the subject.
The only thing remaining now is to set the date for our meeting in an appropriate forum, after which I look forward to you keeping your word and writing a check for one million dollars payable to the Paralyzed Veterans of America so that we can put your money to good work for veterans who have returned home from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Sincerely,
John F. Kerry
United States Senator
It is typical, that not even in the interest of “truth” as was the so-called cause of Swift Boat Veterans in 2004, would they stand up and weather the storm. What a bunch of pussies, seriously. If I were a member of the group, I’d leave because if all they are trying to do is ‘keep their reputation in tact’ at this point, they’ve already lost. They are nothing more than a smut peddling interest group that works to undermine soldiers, not honor them.
LOSERS.
evidence of President Bush’s treason revealed
November 20, 2007 | Filed Under Law | Leave a Comment
The President can deny his involvement in federal crimes all he wants, but sooner or later the truth is going to come out and it’s going to sting. America needs some kind of justice, in fact ‘justice’ itself needs vindication, because it has been cast aside as anti-American for some time now. What are we going to do with this President? He outs a federal agent because her husband doesn’t like him and exonerates the one man that was a proven link to all of the corruption. Maybe President Bush’s biggest mistake in office from a personal standpoint, won’t be that he lied about Iraq, but that he was so interested in getting his friends off the hook that he’s going to end up taking the fall. The best part of it all is that he is responsible for violating the law and betraying the trust of American citizens and in the end, the right perpetrator may pay the ultimate price.
WASHINGTON (CNN) — The White House is denying a claim in a new book by former White House spokesman Scott McClellan that top administration officials — including President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney — were involved in his “unknowingly” passing along false information about the involvement of Karl Rove and Lewis “Scooter” Libby in the leak of a CIA operative’s identity.
Amid a burgeoning controversy about the leak of Valerie Plame Wilson’s name, McClellan went to the White House podium in October 2003 and told reporters that Rove, the president’s top political adviser, and Libby, Cheney’s chief of staff, had not been involved.
“There was one problem. It was not true,” McClellan writes in his new book, “What Happened,” which is scheduled to be released in April. “I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the vice president, the president’s chief of staff and the president himself.”
Reacting to the release of an excerpt from McClellan’s book, which was posted Tuesday on the Web site of the book’s publisher, PublicAffairs, White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said, “The president has not misled his spokespeople, nor would he.”
The portion of McClellan’s book released by PublicAffairs did not give any specifics about the actions of Bush, Cheney, Libby, Rove or then-Chief of Staff Andrew Card with regard to McClellan’s dissemination of the false information.
There was no immediate comment from McClellan, who served as White House press secretary from July 2003 until April 2006.
In the excerpt, McClellan writes that “the most powerful leader in the world had called upon me to speak on his behalf and help restore credibility he lost amid the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So I stood at the White House briefing room podium in front of the glare of the klieg lights for the better part of two weeks and publicly exonerated two of the senior-most aides in the White House: Karl Rove and Scooter Libby.”
In March, Libby was convicted of perjury and obstruction of justice for lying to investigators and a federal grand jury about his contacts with reporters concerning Wilson, the wife of Joe Wilson, a former U.S. ambassador who had accused the Bush administration of misrepresenting intelligence on Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq.

In case you’re not familiar with why this is such a big deal, it can be summarized using a single word: TREASON.
a tale of conservative shame and guilt
November 20, 2007 | Filed Under News, scandals | Leave a Comment
Conservatives can be weird sometimes. One of the issues that has been raised throughout the early 21st century is the rampant hypocrisy that plagues the GOP. They say one thing and do another. For years, they’ve been the “party of family values”. Yet, one scandal after another, we find that conservatives are into tapping toes in Airport bathrooms. Conservatives also seem to like same sex anal play more than openly gay people, it seems.
I know a tightwad is probably going to report the page as ‘improper’ and it will be taken down, so here’s a screen shot of the above linked page:
I’m not judging them for being into ass play, but you have to admit that it’s a bit hypocritical to have such a profound interest in dirty play and play the holier than thou card in public. It’s not just gay sex that they seem hypocritical about, but cheating on wives, prostitution, drugs, bribery, the scandals run the entire gamut of ‘evils’ that they claim they are above. Now, as a semi-religious person, I recognize that no man is free of sin. We are all susceptible to evil, Republican or not. The problem is that the party has taken the stance of criminalizing liberalism and bedeviling all non-Christians, and when it is discovered that they themselves are among the biggest culprits of sin, they say nothing. You could hear a pin drop — in a room filled with conservatives– after all of the gay scandals and the revelation of Madam Palfrey’s whores.
So what is the party going to do now, it’s seriously crippled right now and everyone is disgusted with the GOP and its direction. Yes, even conservatives are shaking their heads in disgust at what the party has become. Only the neo-conservative nuts are defending the party’s evil ways these days, it’s really sad.
Rudy Giuliani is President Bush to the extreme

Does that even sound possible? Could President Bush have a successor that is as dangerous, if not more so, than him? Five years from now, will Americans be talking about how we JUST had the worst President in the history of our nation serve a term in office?
I don’t have a lot of faith in my fellow American voters, but I do have faith in God. I can’t imagine another four years of the brutal regime of governance that Bush has brought to the United States. This country needs to reject the ideals of fascism and turn to liberty. Without liberty, a sense of justice, and a desire for free democracy, our nation is nothing more than World War II Germany, maybe even worse.
We’re not responsible for destroying the lives of millions of Jews, but we are committing atrocities in disturbing numbers and history will not write kindly about this generation. Help alert your friends and families to the dangers of having another neo-conservative puppet in the oval office. To do anything less is a disservice to everything this country stands for and that’s not what YOU are about.

Some people have a profound interest in preserving humanity, peace and justice. If you aren’t doing anything to solve the problem, you are part of the problem, right?
Bush has endangered America long enough

The President needs to go, bumbling idiots don’t deserve to preside over the United States. He’s received so many opportunities to ‘do the right thing’ and he’s failed miserable. I don’t like to knock the President too often, even though I know he is the biggest buffoon to become part of the political process in all of American history. It drives me up the wall when I see our enemies doing precisely what they should be doing, cracking our balls on the international stage.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, has called on Opec members to stop pricing oil in “worthless” US dollars. “They get our oil and give us a worthless piece of paper,” he told reporters at the close of a two day meeting of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries in Saudi Arabia. The fall in the value of the dollar has weakened the purchasing power of Opec members and helped push oil prices to nearly $100 a barrel. Ahmadinejad is to meet Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan president, later on Monday to discuss the issue. Chavez echoed Ahmadinejad’s sentiment, saying “the empire of the dollar has to end”.
The President didn’t just pick a fight with Iraq, he’s made President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a villain, (a no-brainer, but sheesh.. the timing is bad given American war sentiment) he has mocked Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, China and a host of other “anti-American” countries. If you leave the United States borders, the rest of the world is far more liberal than even hippieville, California. Yet, with this knowledge, our administration still chooses to marginalize the nations of the world and humiliate Americans by picking fights that we can’t “win.” The propaganda machine will try to paint everything in terms of “win or lose” and “American and un-American”, but the truth is that we live in a world of greys not black and white. Impeachment would be a wonderful solution if justice could be swiftly imposed on this administration. We need a new President, yesterday, this administration is killing America.
I no longer want to feel dead, I don’t like being hated by everyone in the world for loving and embracing the stars and stripes.

Everyone wants to change the world, not everyone has the guts to stand up for their beliefs. Which member of society are you? The passive, submissive, weak and fearful or are you a doer, a revolutionary?
The choice is a simple one, you’re either with us or against us in fighting the injustice that the Bush Administration has brought up on the world.
Chuck Norris approves of this message

Did Mike Huckabee make a funny? I kinda dig the light tone of this campaign ad given what negative, mean, and hateful propaganda is floating around on the Internet. It’s not the best political ad out there, but it’s worthy of posting.
“That’s not a chin behind Chuck Norris’ beard, it’s another fist…” — Classic.
In other news, Chuck Norris is a moron:
Was “Iraqi Liberation” a fraud?

Is this video a tool of propaganda artists, or are they exposing the true propaganda artists?
Propaganda Artists? You decide.
“the whole war, it’s like an American movie. You know the end, you know the heroes, you know the ‘bad guys’ are going to die.”
You know, it really bothers me that IF the United States (my country) tried to stage this for the media for the purpose of promoting propaganda to support war, they should hire much better ‘directors’ and producers. It’s ridiculous how horrible of a job the media did covering and reporting on the Iraqi liberation ‘movement’. I remember the famous images, and I even went out and bought a news paper when Saddam Hussein was captured. The media has historically been instrumental as a tool for ’success’ and ‘defeat’ in American wars, and the Iraq War is no different.
