Things are really going well in Iraq. We're making so much progress. Repukes should be so furking (JU acceptable swear word) proud. An excerpt from today's CNN article: Thursday's blasts were the most deadly single-day string of bombings since September 14, when more than 100 people were killed in Baghdad in strikes claimed by Al Qaeda in Iraq, the group led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Earlier, the U.S. Marine Corps reported that five U.S. Army soldiers were killed Wednesday in Ramad...

Are the reports true that the dubya dummy has gone back to the bottle? He's a drunk and a druggie who was reportedly sober for a number of years. Is he hittin' the booze again? I wouldn't be the least bit surprised. Some people say that any president who takes a drink now and again is not a problem. I agree. EXCEPT dumbya. A sober drunk cannot take one drink. Regardless, he's out of control, anyway. I am not the least bit surprised. He's got blood on his hands, and blood money i...

Saddam's trial begins on October 19, 2005. It's going to get very interesting, because in order for him to put on any kind of appropriate defence, he will have to bring up some things that our government likely wishes would not be brought up. But, the defence team, if they are going to provide a vigorous defense, must insist upon some historical facts. Of course, none of these thing will actually serve to condone the atrocities committed by Saddam, but he will drag down some significant Am...

I was thinking about writing an article about why I think conservatives are conservatives, why republicans are republicans and why in hell they cannot, or refuse to put together the facts that would make the sanest of people go hmmmmmmm......................... In other words, it seems to me that republicans refuse to accept facts, but instead rely solely on some kind of preconceived notion of morality, that being their definition of morality, in spite of and regardless of facts that w...

I thought about putting this in the Humor category (for about 1/10th of a second), but decided it belongs in Politics. Three Texas surgeons were playing golf together and discussing surgeries they had performed. The first said, "I'm the best surgeon in Texas. A concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident. I reattached them and 8 months later he performed a private concert for the Queen of England." The second said, "That's nothing. A young man lost both arms and legs in an acc...

"Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel." - Samuel Johnson "Merchants have no country. The mere spot they stand on does not constitute so strong an attachment as that from which they draw their gains." - Thomas Jefferson "The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it comes strong than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism - ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controll...

This is no joke. We get horsie idiots for FEMA, doggie doctors for Womens Health, and f*cktards in the white wash, I mean house. Planned Parenthood Federation of America Interim President Karen Pearl issued these comments on the appointment: "The appointment of Dr. Norris Alderson, a man who has spent the majority of his career in the office of veterinary medicine, to the position of acting director of the FDA's Office of Women's Health speaks volumes about the priority the Bush a...

It astounds me when dubya proclaims, rather pointedly, and in the hopes that people will like him better than the less than 40% who like him today, that in spite of the huge federal spending program that will occur to clean up after Hurricane Katrina, he's not going to raise taxes. Huh????? How can this be, you ask? Well, it can not be. He is a liar. It's typical dubya speak, pulling his speeches out of his ass (Rovian style) to dupe people. But, people are beginning to resent getting...

A day late. A dollar short. And, thank God. I guess now he'll go work for his ol' buddy, Allbaugh, at Halliburton.

It's like adding insult to injury. First FEMA furks up the job of disaster relief. But, that's not enough for them. No. They have to funnel FEMA payoffs to their buddies and cronies and other asswipes that the dubya dummies call their friends. But, this example goes beyond the pale (whatever that threshold is), and is a slap to every American, and certainly to every victim of the Katrina disaster. This story is the stuff of corporate cronyism and outright fascism. I invite you to read ...
