First of all I am tired of hearing when we leave Iraq, it will be a safe haven for al Qaeda…Bush has already provided a safe haven for al Qaeda on the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan….the Sunni are only about 20% of the population of Iraq…and even the everyday Sunni are fighting the Sunni in al Qaeda in Iraq…the Shiite which are over 60% of the population will never sit back and let al Qaeda run Iraq…al Sadr’s Shiite militia will never let al Qaeda run Iraq…the Shiite and Sunni are life long sworn enemies…Saddam ruled Iraq from 1979-2003, the Baath party from 1968-2003, does anyone really think the Shiite are just going to sit back and let radical Sunnis rule Iraq after 35 years of Sunni rule??? The Shiite don’t even want the everyday Sunnis to have a say in running Iraq…more fear mongering by Bush, Cheney, Rove, and the 27% who keep drinking the koolaid….
The real al Qaeda, which Bush has let reform, Bush even said bin Laden is not a priority, are the real enemy in the war on terror…whether we win or lose in Iraq, the terrorists in the safe haven of the Pakistan and Afghanistan border will continue to plot against America while we waste resources and our military fighting a civil war in Iraq…remember, even the Pentagon stated Iraq and Saddam played no role in the 9-11 attacks…the al Qaeda in Pakistan and Afghanistan are the terrorists we should be fighting…Once we change our strategy in Iraq, maybe then we will start fighting the real war on terror not the imagined one in Iraq…
Secondly, The first amendment states American citizens have the right to express their grievances against the government…as a life long Independent, I am fed up with the lies, deception, and blatant disregard for the wishes of the American people from Bush and Cheney. I am tired of Bush and Cheney’s blatant disregard for the constitution. I have a constitutional right as an American to express my grievances against Bush and Cheney…How does that make me unpatriotic, hate America?…When Clinton was Commander in Chief with our troops in Somalia and Bosnia, and the right wing attacked him, I bet none of you felt unpatriotic…When you never supported Clinton, did you hate your country? Only when a Republican President is questioned are people unpatriotic…and what Democrat, Independent, American wants to have more Americans killed in our streets?…What Democrat, Independent, American wants al Qaeda to continue to have a safe haven to plot attacks against America? I, we, have a constitutional right to be heard and not sit back and watch Bush run our military into the ground because we love our country and are patriotic when we express ourselves…just like the right wing expressed itself against Clinton…Did you hate your country when you wanted Clinton impeached?…I am just sick of hearing the koolaid drinkers say that I am not patriotic because I don’t trust, believe, or have any faith in Bush and the Repubs to do the right thing anymore…I don’t buy into the fear…and the if we don’t fight them in Iraq we will fight them here rhetoric…the real terrorists in Pakistan and Afghanistan are the terrorists who will attack us here….not the al Qaeda in Iraq…the latest NIE even stated that al Qaeda in Iraq is not a threat to America…When we stop combat operations in Iraq, al Qaeda will lose its recruiting edge…bin Laden will start losing recruits…
Thirdly, our troops cannot end the civil war in Iraq…our troops, our politicians, our President cannot stop Shiite from fighting Sunni, from Sunni fighting Sunni, from Shiite fighting Shiite…only the Shiite and Sunni leaders can stop the civil war…I am all for a aggressive war on terror, have been since 9-11, and I will always be…I am against a made up war on terror in Iraq…four and a half years after mission accomplished and what has Bush accomplished besides make the world more dangerous, help al Qaeda recruit new members in Iraq, and gave al Qaeda a safe haven in the mountains of Pakistan and Afghanistan…al Qaeda was not in Iraq when we invaded…Iraq and Saddam had nothing to do with 9-11…and the 27% who still believe those lies watch Fox Made Up News, read the Dredge Report, and believe whatever lies Bush and Cheney spew…show me any evidence from the Pentagon stating that al Qaeda was in Iraq before Bush and Cheney and Dumsfeld destabilized a sovereign nation …friends of mine who did Army intell in Iraq after 9-11, life long Republicans, told me that their was no evidence that al Qaeda was in Iraq…they said there were training camps in Kurdistan, but they were empty when we invaded Iraq…why would they lie?…show me some proof that al Qaeda was in Iraq when we invaded…there is none…even the Pentagon has said al Qaeda was not in Iraq when we invaded the country…Saddam hated anyone competing on his turf…the only connection between Saddam and bin Laden is they are both Sunni….end of story……I was even against even going to Afghanistan after 9-11…Afghanistan didn’t attack America…Bush and the military had no clue how to fight a war against a terrorist organization hiding in the desolation of the Afghanistan mountains…the war on terror, on the Taliban, on al Qaeda, will not be won with bombs and troops and force…the war will be won with special forces, black ops, and intelligence…small, strategic strikes…The war on terror will be won and lost based on intelligence…Bush and intelligence are two words that just don’t go together…
My dad was killed in Vietnam…don’t tell me I am unpatriotic…I support the troops…always will…and when a war is justified, I will even support the politicians who want the war…but the war on Iraq, like the war in Vietnam, was fought based on lies and deception…the metaphor of the dominoes will fall has been replaced with the axis of evil. How can anyone support the war machine behind both wars? And not supporting the war machine politics is totally different than not supporting the troops…I realize the right wing just cannot understand such a simple idea… …and if our military and government are so patriotic, when did a Appeals Court chastise the Department of Veterans Affairs on Thursday and order the VA to finally pay retroactive benefits to Vietnam War veterans who were exposed to Agent Orange and contracted a form of leukemia…The VA agree in 2003 to extend benefits to Vietnam Vets with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The VA still hasn’t paid the Vets what they are owed….the case action suit was filed in 1986 and in 1991 the government was still haggling over a technically instead of taking care of the troops…the governmental obstructionist bureaucratic opposition has drug on for 16 years…talk about not supporting the troops…like Bush not giving the troops the armor they needed…like Bushworld not giving troops the training they needed…like Bush cutting the VA budget during war times…like the Walter Reed fiasco…like the Repubs voting against the Webb amendment giving troops equal time off for the time they were in combat…and I don’t support the troops by speaking out…I am unpatriotic for speaking my mind…Enough…

King George, The Censor
The first U.S. surgeon general appointed by President Bush accused the administration on Tuesday of political interference and muzzling him on key issues like embryonic stem cell research. "Anything that doesn't fit into the political appointees' ideological, theological or political agenda is ignored, marginalized or simply buried," Dr. Richard Carmona, who served as the nation's top doctor from 2002 until 2006, told a House of Representatives committee. "The problem with this approach is that in public health, as in a democracy, there is nothing worse than ignoring science, or marginalizing the voice of science for reasons driven by changing political winds. The job of surgeon general is to be the doctor of the nation, not the doctor of a political party," Carmona added. The American people just don't matter to King George, over 70% of Americans are in favor of stem cell research...just not King George...
King George censors whatever he disgrees with just like the scientists researching global warming...see link below....

Vitter and Clinton
Repub Koolaid drinkers...get your head out of among other things, last millennium, last century, last decade, and welcome yourselves to 2007...welcome to the 21st century...we know about Clinton...get over it...can't you come up with another note? another tune? and if you are such good Christians, why do you only "forgive" fellow Republicans and not Democrats? Did I miss the part of the bible that states only Repubs can be forgiven?...guess you are not the great Christian role models you pretend to be...let's see you can forgive Foley, Haggard, Vitter, Delay, Gingrich, jailbirds Cunningham, Ney, Scanlon, Abramoff, etc, so why not Clinton? you are Christians of convenience...the words fraud and hypocrite also come to mind...no wonder I am an atheist...
Gut Feeling Is to Puke
Strange, Darth Dick has repeatedly stated that 75% of al Qaeda senior leadership has been wiped out and al Qaeda has been weaken...guess he just got more bad intelligence...strange, we left Afganistan and Pakistan where al Qaeda and bin Laden are to invade a country, Iraq, that didn't have any al Qaeda or Taliban in the country until Bush, Dick, Dumsfeld, et al, destabilized Iraq...and strange, al Qaeda has reformed and is as strong as ever...what brilliant leadership...
No wonder Homeland Security Czar Chertoff has a gut feeling...but he doesn't raise the alert level, doesn't boost security, says we are vulnerable six years after 9-11...Haven't we made ourselves safer in the last six years under Bush's stellar leadership? Shouldn't we be less vulnerable now, six years after 9-11? Shouldn't we have solid intelligence? Chertoff should recruit some psychics to help augment his gut feelings...brilliant leadership...
The Senate on Wednesday voted against advancing a measure that would have restricted combat deployments by requiring that troops spend as much time at home as in battle. The 56-41 vote on the proposal by Sen. Jim Webb, D-Va., fell four votes short of the 60 needed to cut off debate. Remember Repub Koolaid Drinkers that the Repubs voted against the troops today...voted against allowing our troops to be home as long as they were at war...at least the Dems supported the troops today...the Republicans failed again to support the troops ...just keep pushing the troops, keep extending their deployments...at least the Dems supported the troops and the bill...nice work Repubs...another one of the Repubs main talking points shot down...Walter Reed ring a bell too....at least some Repubs are growing some balls and breaking away from Bush....

Fun With Food
A series of posts for a blog I post on...I started the fun with food....
Even wonder why most of the Jesus and Mary images end up on E-Bay if they are so sacred? The Blessed Mary Grilled Cheese Sandwich, the Jesus Christ Cross Potato Chip, the Jesus Christ Pierogi, The Weeping Jesus Rock, The Jesus on an Oyster, etc...what I am missing?...you would think people would turn them into sacred shrines...but no, their first thought is I can make money selling this on E-Bay...strange...Wonder if Jesus and Mary get a cut?
Me....
I just want to say that I don't see it about the Virgin Mary watermelon. It looks like a misshapen slab of raspberry gelato to me. Actually, my wife and I were wondering what PART of the Virgin Mary's anatomy that watermelon was supposed to look like...
Flipkid, Blue Stat
Do all these people realize that what they see on their food items, cloud formations, misshapen tree bark, etc., might not be Jesus but Charles Manson? I once saw a face on my slightly charred Chapati that resembled Jesus, but I was informed by the chef that it was not Jesus, but the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. I looked again and decided it was closer to Charlie. With a burning ember, I added a Swastika between the 'eyebrows', just to update it a bit, slathered on some curry sauce and lentils(who vaguely resembled the Left Field Crowd at Yankee Stadium), and ate it/them. It all depends on your point of view I guess.
Steve, Cedar Falls Iowa
I saw Bill 'O in my jello (lol) maybe I will see Ann Coulter in my split pea soup. Yuck, Peace, Denise! P.S. Maybe I will see Bushwhacked in my oatmeal.
DCOHN, Cleveland, Ohio
Steve...you mustn't play with the embers in your food...where are your manners!!! sounds like a Zappa song though...you crack me up...but, why didn't you sell Charlie on E-Bay?...the added feature of the "Swastika between the 'eyebrows'" would have gotten big bucks!!! Rage on!!!
DCohn...please save me the Coulter in the Pea Soup after your vision...I want to frame it and sell it on E-Bay to her twisted and tormented fans!!!
Me
Steve. Dude. You are peculiar in all the right ways. I won't be able to have my usual toast for breakfast tomorrow with out checkin' for Charlie. Thank you very very VERY much.
Todd, New Orleans, LA
Speaking of finding images in things, my dog just 'pinched a loaf' in the frint yard, and lo and behold, there was an image of Ann Coulter in it. Problem is, the dog turned around for a quick sniff and saw it, too. Went running into the woods loudly yapping and yowling his head off. This was three days ago, and I haven't seen him since!
Buzz, a.k.a "oh, where oh where can my Buzzy dog be?"
Aside from its' value as an accidental food decoration, the image of Jesus has been standardized as a tall, strawberry-blonde with green eyes. I attended a religious college and once postulated that Jesus nee Yeshua, was only Half-Jewish, on his Mother's side. His father was God. It was left to speculate from current Images of Jesus and current translations of the Greek Religion, what his Dad's ethnicity was? My guess was either Norwegian, Swedish, or possibly Lithuanian. Although there were Teutonic Guards in the area, guarding Peter O'Toole...I mean Roman Officials. One of them might have played God to the half-starved Mary, and Surrogate Angelic Father to the future Redeemer, Gott'n Himmel! Heilige Scheiss!. In the end, it doesn't really matter as people will put their own faces on the both of them...or THEM, if you prefer. Maybe Danish?
Steve, Cedar Falls, Iowa
Buzz - kudos for the laugh. I think there's a turd in the cat box here that looks like Cheney. In fact, they ALL look like Cheney.
Sue, West Allis, Wisconsin
Sue- Do they SMELL like him, too? There, now that I'm on the FBI watch list (like I wasn't before...), I might as wall just say it; I bet your litterbox collection is smarter and less
ethically-challenged than Cheney, too.
Buzz
Steve, I didn't find Charlie on the toast this morning, but I swear saw Squeaky Fromme in the jelly.
Wondering
Wondering...she is in EVERYBODYS JELLY. Her wandering ghost body is still trying to find the Colt/Browning .45 Automatic Instruction Booklet that shows her where the 'Safety' is. She had it at her last breakfast before her Assinine...I mean her Assassination Attempt on Gerald Ford. The Family has always been unprepared when it comes to firearms, having better luck with cutlery. I won't tell you who's in your ice cream. (OK...Sadie Mae Glutz!)

Only The Republicans Can Save America
On Aug. 7, 1974, Rep. John Rhodes of Arizona, Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona, and Senate Minority Leader Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania went to an office in the Old Executive Office Building for the now-famous meeting with President Nixon, and they forced President Nixon to resign since his support in the Senate had collapsed. ”There are only so many lies you can take, and now there has been one too many," complained Arizona's Conservative Barry Goldwater. "Nixon should get his ass out of the White House—today!"
What Republicans in 2007 will grow some balls and do the same to Bush and Chaney...Only when the Republicans break away like Goldwater, Rhodes, and Scott did, will the country get any relief from King George and Darth Dick...the Dems cannot do anything on there own simply because our Congress is built on votes...60 votes is the magical number in the Senate...the Dems only have 49 seats...only when the Republicans stand up to Bush and Dick, will the majority of the people who no longer support the Bush Administration feel like their voice matters...The House is 232-201 with the magic number around 287 votes...again, only when the Republicans stop being lemming, cowering before Darth Dick and Darth Rove, will the majority of the people who have lost faith in the Administration of Dick and Bush have their voice heard...rag on the Dems all you want and they are have many issues too, but over Government, the House and the Senate, revolve around votes…the Dems can yap and yak all they want, but only when the Republicans break ranks will Dr. Evil and Mini Me be forced to resign…Independence Day 2007….King George III has been replaced by King George and Darth Dick and there is nothing we the people can do…. Castrated Republicans...Inept Democrats...I am only eloquently barking at the moon...
Bush and Cheney are too arrogant, ignorant, and delusional to ever resign...only the Republicans can affect any change in America...What are the chances of that happening? Republicans are lemmings without any balls...They just do what they are told by Cheney and Rove...let the revolution in 2007 begin...

Independence Day
Independence Day 2007...a celebration of our country's freedom from the monarchy of King George...I wonder what Washington, John and Quincy Adams, Madison, Payne, Franklin, Jefferson, Hamilton, all the soldiers who fought in the Revolutionary War, those who died, those who were scarred, etc, would think of the new King George...What would they think of the perversion and bastardization of their ideals, ideas, laws, morals, values....their Constitution...their Bill of Rights...
Interesting that the idea of adding a bill of rights to the Constitution was originally controversial because the Constitution did not specifically enumerate or protect the rights of the people, rather it limited the rights of the government...there was worry a Bill of Rights would be interpreted as the only rights available to the people... I highly recommend The Federalist Papers by Hamilton, Madison, and Jay...the book was written as a response to the Anti-Federalists back in 1787-1788...The anti-Federalists were already worried that the Constitution merely replaced the King with a President...a King with the government...the foreshadowing by the Anti-Federalists has come true in Dick and Bush...

Libby Gets Communion
I cannot give anyone evidence of a conspiracy to out Valerie Plume because Libby was convicted of perjury and obstruction of justice...Special Prosecutor Fitzgerald, a Bush appointee, was never able to get to the truth behind the conspiracy due to the lies and obstruction..."Sand was thrown in my face." to paraphase Fitzgerald...our judicial system, what justice is left, is based on truthful testimony, so was Fitzgerald's investigation...However, due to Libby lies and obstruction, the conspiracy to out a covert agent can never be proven or disproven...If Libby, Cheney, Bush, Rove, etc, had nothing to hide, why the perjury and obstruction? The truth will never be revealed...truth and Bushworld are mutually exclusive...The White House is under siege by subpoenas in the AG firings and the warrantless warrants, especially Card and Gonzales's midnight trip to Ashcroft's bed to circumvent Comey, Ashcroft's stand in...and now Libby's sentence is commuted...set against the back drop of terror attacks...is it me or does all this seem to convenient, to much coincidence...almost planned....
I wonder how much Cheney pushed King George into commuting Libby's sentence...Bush does Cheney's bidding...So Libby gets communion for his sins...an Appeals Panel of two Bush appointed Judges and One Dem Judge found nothing in the case to appeal...the jail sentence was well within the guidelines....nothing inappropriate had been found...the Bush appointed Prosecutor, the Bush Appointed Judge in the case, the Bush appointed Appeals Judges all acted within the law...Bush respected the verdict but felt it was wrong...Bush and Dick are above the law...no laws apply to them. Dick even has his own branch of government now outside of the executive branch....news to everyone, even his fellow Republicans...until the subpoenas came, then he returned to hide behind executive privilege...
Would anyone really be surprised if the alleged terrorists in Britain and Glasgow were on Cheney's payroll?
The last few months, whenever the White House or Cheney was faced with subpoenas, three groups of D-List terrorists have either thought about bizarre plans or have acted out a poorly hatched plan.....The only people killed in Glasgow and Britain were two of the terrorists...no innocence people were killed...we had the pizza delivery plan to shoot troops at a military base...troops armed and trained...then we had the geriatric terrorists, one a drug addict, one a part time homeless person, who planned to light a match around jet fuel, which isn't as flammable as they thought...nothing but distractions...nothing about Cheney would surprise me anymore...

Goodbye Brown, Goodbye Education
Justice Stephen Breyer's dissenting opinion on the integration ruling..."This is a decision that the court and the nation will come to regret...As a result, the decision reverses course and reaches the wrong conclusion. In doing so, it distorts precedent, it misapplies the relevant constitutional principles, it announces legal rules that will obstruct efforts by state and local governments to deal effectively with the growing resegration of public schools, it threatens to substitute for present calm a disruptive round of race-related litigation, and it undermines Brown's promise of integrated primary and secondary education that local communities have sought to make a reality"
Do you really think white schools in the south are voluntarily going to accept black students? They barely wanted to accept black students when they were forced to integrate...George Wallace and Bull Connor ring a bell...1963...47 years ago...and there are many George Wallaces and Bull Connors still in the south and north...Do you really think schools anywhere will voluntarily accept black, Hispanic, Muslim, or other minorities students after this ruling? Blacks have only had the right to vote for 43 years...Brown v Board of Education was 1954...with all the racism in America, to think Brown vs Board of Education has not lost its power with this ruling is naive...Even the NFL had to be forced into changing its hiring policies to ensure teams at least interview black coaches when position were open...and that was in 2003/2004...How you anyone can think southern schools, schools anywhere, will openly accept blacks students, minority students, after this ruling is beyond me...
The Louisville case was about a transfer of a kindergarten student brought by a white family...and the Seattle case was about a high school student...while the case my eventually apply to college, the ruling was mainly about K-12...for me college education is a different problem for a different rant...everyone should be able to get a quality high school education...that was the point of Brown...separate was not equal...and this ruling will lead to black schools and white schools...1954, 1963, 1964, the Civil Rights Acts, wasn't that long ago...2007 looks like a return to our past...
I can get the details, but in a survey in 2000, of 1708 senior executives in the private sector, there were three African Americans, two Asians, two Hispanics, three Indians, and eight women....18 of 1708 positions were filled with minorities...tell me racism and sexism doesn't exist...I bet the numbers are not that different in 2007...if minority children cannot get access to quality education in high school and with the weakening of Brown of Education, minorities will never have the same or equal chance whites have... minorities will never have the same or equal chance whites have to be executives, President, simply get an education...
Today the Supreme Court ruled against racial integration of our schools...Where is Bull Connor? Good Old John Roberts was again the lead Neocon and to quote the Chief Justice: "The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discrimination on the basis of race." Huh?...and he even invoked Brown vs Board of Education and said his ruling didn't overturn Brown...yet Brown declares "that the discriminatory nature of racial segregation violates the 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees all citizens equal protection under the laws"..."Brown v. Board of Education laid the foundation for shaping future national and international policies regarding human rights." Might was well Repeal Affirmative Action too...
So we are back to separate and not equal...White kids get the seats first, the hell with the black kids...why should they get a chance at an equal education...hell, let's just repeal the Civil Rights Acts too that them damn liberals fought for...let's just go back to lynching...them damn blacks aren't people anyway...bet the KKK is happy today...and yes, I was a victim of reverse discrimination once...I survived...and the person of color picked over me ended up doing an amazing job...maybe even better than I could have done...this Supreme Court and Bush and Dick will lead us back to the Dark Ages...
Do you really think white schools in the south are voluntarily going to accept black students? They barely wanted to accept black students when they were forced to integrate...George Wallace and Bull Connor ring a bell...1963...47 years ago...and there are many George Wallaces and Bull Connors still in the south and north...Do you really think schools anywhere will voluntarily accept black, Hispanic, Muslim, or other minorities students after this ruling? Blacks have only had the right to vote for 43 years...Brown v Board of Education was 1954...with all the racism in America, to think Brown vs Board of Education has not lost its power with this ruling is naive...Even the NFL had to be forced into changing its hiring policies to ensure teams at least interview black coaches when position were open...and that was in 2003/2004...How you anyone can think southern schools, schools anywhere, will openly accept blacks students, minority students, after this ruling is beyond me...
The Louisville case was about a transfer of a kindergarten student brought by a white family...and the Seattle case was about a high school student...while the case my eventually apply to college, the ruling was mainly about K-12...for me college education is a different problem for a different rant...everyone should be able to get a quality high school education...that was the point of Brown...separate was not equal...and this ruling will lead to black schools and white schools...1954, 1963, 1964, the Civil Rights Acts, wasn't that long ago...2007 looks like a return to our past...
I can get the details, but in a survey in 2000, of 1708 senior executives in the private sector, there were three African Americans, two Asians, two Hispanics, three Indians, and eight women....18 of 1708 positions were filled with minorities...tell me racism and sexism doesn't exist...I bet the numbers are not that different in 2007...if minority children cannot get access to quality education in high school and with the weakening of Brown of Education, minorities will never have the same or equal chance whites have... minorities will never have the same or equal chance whites have to be executives, President, simply get an education...
Today the Supreme Court ruled against racial integration of our schools...Where is Bull Connor? Good Old John Roberts was again the lead Neocon and to quote the Chief Justice: "The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discrimination on the basis of race." Huh?...and he even invoked Brown vs Board of Education and said his ruling didn't overturn Brown...yet Brown declares "that the discriminatory nature of racial segregation violates the 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees all citizens equal protection under the laws"..."Brown v. Board of Education laid the foundation for shaping future national and international policies regarding human rights." Might was well Repeal Affirmative Action too...
