Faced with loosing control of congress, Cheney and his pack of radical conservatives have sunk to an all-time low. According to his statements on Fox News (imagine that) insurgents are stepping up their violence in Iraq with the hopes that we will vote the Republicans out of office.
Cheney: “Whether it’s al Qaeda or the other [...]
Not to revisit recent topics, but I must say that I really am amazed that the mainstream press has finally started talking about the Downing Street Memo. More than two months after the memo was leaked, the so-called “liberal” media has finally gotten around to covering it, albeit not with much enthusiasm.
Not that they came [...]
A secret British document revealed last month — the Downing Street Memo — all but confirms a sickening truth. Obsessed with Saddam no matter what the cost, President Bush and his aides dragged the nation to war with fixed evidence and false claims about non-existent Iraqi WMD’s.
The Downing Street Memo makes clear that Bush wanted [...]
The Howard BEAN: A Cafe For America has begun an international campaign for a new owner, its current owner announced today. The Montpelier, Vt., cafe opened on election day 2004 and was named (tongue-in-cheek) after a certain former Vermont Governor who is the chair of the Democratic National Committee. The cafe [...]
Since George W. Bush took office his secrecy with respect to the media has been unprecedented. He rarely holds press conferences, and on the rare occasions when he does, his answers are constantly obfuscated by double-speak and misdirection. Thus it is for good reason that the blogosphere and independent media became suspicious when little known [...]
The quotes below are taken from a New York TImes article from Feb 19, 2005. Doug Wead is a personal friend of George Bush. During the course of writing a book about then future president he secretly recorded some private conversations.
NOTE: We are currently trying to acquire the entire transcripts of these tapes, as well [...]
Yeserday, the National Security Archive posted the widely-debated, but previously unavailable, January 25, 2001, memo from counterterrorism coordinator Richard Clarke to national security advisor Condoleezza Rice.
The document was central to debates in the 9/11 hearings over the Bush administration’s policies and actions on terrorism before September 11, 2001. Clarke’s memo requests an immediate meeting of [...]
Nobody is going to pretend that I am a fan of the Bush administration, but no matter what your party affiliation, or how you feel about his leadership, you have to admit that this video, which shows Bush flipping the bird, and then laughing about it, really does illustrate just how little class the man [...]
I would like to add my voice to the millions of Americans who wish to remain in good standing with the rest of the world by distancing themselves from the conservative radicals who are running this country. This morning a friend sent me a link to a website called sorryeverybody.com, and while I am deeply [...]
From the looks of things, about half the US poplulation, and the vast majority of the rest of the world are not too happy with Tuesday’s disasterous election results.
I have to say, I agree 100%. I had hoped that the damage caused over the past four years could be corrected, but with another term [...]
Let’s get it right in 2008 with Howard Dean!
I’ve waited to say it, but I won’t keep it in any longer! I’ll be writing more on this when I’m done with work for the day, but for my own sanity, I need to say this now.
Today, the Democratic party, and every coward who was too [...]
Is our President a deranged mental patient?
Angry Candy Productions has come out with a cartoon that is both very funny and mind numbingly sad because of how much it rings true. Set to the background music “Hail to the Chief” we watch as an action figure representing the only president who has ever tried to [...]
