When you look at the chart, and you consider that they got a no-bid contract to clean up the mess prior to the mess and anticipation of the mess, it's hard not to question the motives. Particularly when the VP is so heavily vested in Halliburton. He set up the who fucking scam, after all. There really ought to be a law against profitting from war. Most profits should be put into accounts to pay for war reparations. If that was the case, then not many people would want to participate, and...

Some people get their knickers so knotted because I dis our fearless dubya. Apparently, there are 21 White Wash, I mean House individuals Link being investigated for the Plame leak. Well, really I do think they should all go to jail, starting with Rove.

Notice, this was published TODAY. I am posting this, because I've read this kind of stuff before, maybe as long as two years ago. Bush is not a nice man. He is not a moral man. He acts like a child who is losing a game, and wants to kick over the game board. But, this ain't no game, boys and girls. We're in deep shit. Is Bush Out of Control? By DOUG THOMPSON Aug 15, 2005, 05:46 Buy beleaguered, overworked White House aides enough drinks and they tell a sordid tale of an ad...

Response to AAR-funding scandal bull garbage Please read something a bit more timely and relevant to the issue you're trying to blow out of proportion. In fact, this "scandal" ended up being all about a slimeball named Cohen and about the Boys and Girls Club bookkeeping improprieties, and had nothing to do with Air America Radio. Per the Cybercast News Service Link : On June 24, the New York City Department of Investigation (DOI) announced that it was terminating all contracts with ...

Below is a post that I just sent to some friends at a usenet group. It really is a slice of my life, and I felt that I wanted to share it here. I'm not sure why. Maybe to impress some of you. Maybe to give you an inkling of my life. Maybe because I'm human. An anti-rightie, anti-dubya, anti-ID in science classes, a pro-humanist, pro-animals, pro-environment, anti-corporate money-grubbing, anti-tax cuts for the money-grubbing corporations, pro-choice, pro-friends, anti-shitheads, pro-com...

Evolution has "gaping holes". Intelligent design IS a gaping hole. "To explain the origin of the DNA/protein machine by invoking a supernatural Designer is to explain precisely nothing , for it leaves unexplained the origin of the Designer. You have to say something like 'God was always there', and if you allow yourself that kind of lazy way out, you might as well just say 'DNA was always there', or "Life was always there', and be done with it." --Richard Dawkins, The Blind Watc...

Ya gotta wonder............ Now that the story broke that Muhammed Atta and his gang were names that US intelligence had a year before 9-11, and they did nothing about it, basically dropping the entire ball, Ya gotta wonder........ Now that the 9-11 Commission has concluded its business and no longer has any subpoena powers......... Ya gotta wonder............ What else is going to come out about the failure of the intelligence to prevent the 9-11 tragedy? Basically, I'm not...

And that's all I wanted to say. (someday, they'll let me back, so we can debate scary suns.)

"Footage from a U.S. government-produced film, which was labeled top secret and kept out of public view for decades, is included in "Original Child Bomb," a documentary that will air on many cable stations Saturday, the 60th anniversary of the day that Hiroshima became the first city to suffer atomic attack." according to Knight Ridder news service and reprinted at Common Dreams Link They also have listed future airings. I am not able to get the Sundance Channel, so I will ask a frien...

Many of you here will ask "where's the proof?" A bit of research will easily find it. But, you're not going to find any such proof in the mainstream media or the rightwing rags that only parrot this administration's propaganda. I'll provide you with a few, however, to put you on the right track: The Raw Story - Path of War Timeline Link See Sept. 5, 2002 Cooperative Research Link Operation Southern Focus Link These three links have many more links embedded within them. ...

I just found this in the political forum. I think bigrickstallion is right on the money in his response to dr guy, but I want to reiterate a few things: First, I am not the only person who has left leaning politics. In fact, almost, if not more than 50% of the American population is left. So when any one of us posts our political leanings, it's not always going to be me. In fact, I sure wouldn't mind seeing more of us here. Secondly, I really do think that the moderators here shou...

Well, I have been outed as zinkadoodle. In fact, posting as zinkadoodle was an experiment. And no, ms whip lover, I never posted from work, as you accused me of. That was nothing but defamation, which you apparently revel in. Anyway, as zinkadoodle, I really did clean up my language, except maybe for a few slips, but nothing beyond the pale, or what any other blogger here at ju does. People even commented that I seemed like a cleaner version of dabe. Nice to notice that the politics are...

How to insult the JU way or get yourself banished to JU isolation I've not posted anything here for some time, since I was banished to my own blog. Why bother? In fact, I get the feeling that I'm supposed to come crawling to the site administrators to beg their forgiveness and please, oh please allow me to enter the forums again. I'm kind of adverse to doing that, and this is why........ I do not feel any modicum of contrition for my behavior. Sure, I took profanity over the to...
