Won't Get Fooled Again?

Yes, stop him please.

Someone has to !
The International Atomic Energy Agency has been looking at top secret data supplied
by U.S. 'intelligence' on Iran's weapons
development since 2002 and now concludes...

1) Pretty much all of it has proved to be wrong.

2)Some of it appears to be 'fabricated information'.

Only some of it?












Trust this guy?

Freedom On The March

Israeli warplanes, in order to fly across Iraq to strike targets in Iran ...need permission from the Pentagon.

No one else. Certainly not Iraq. It's not their air space...is it?

Lazy pets at the Lazy Q ranch.

But never let the hounds fool you, as soon as someone says the "S" word, squirrel, they're off like crazy rockets on a mission to nowhere fast.

Nice Friends GOP

An interesting story Friday, A N.Y. man was accused of funneling money for terrorists in Afghanistan and Pakistan through a Canadian bank. He sent $152,000 for night vision goggles and other equipment to terrorist training camps.

What's odd is Abdul Alishtari is a top White House/ Republican Party contributor.

He's a Homeland security contractor, he belongs to the National Republican Senate Inner Circle Member for Life ( that must cost a bundle), the White House Business Advisory Committee and he claims to be friends with Dick Cheney. Well, it took the intrepid Wonkette team to dig the rest of the scandal out.

The Don

Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has a reputation to maintain. In all of his complicated high profile cases, he's always gone after the master mind, the king pin behind every crime, never the little guys. That person is established early in the investigation.

That person is not Scooter Libby.

The experts have suspected and are now fairly sure that a conviction of Libby is necessary for the next phase of the investigation, not the end of the investigation.

And if Fitz brings down Cheney...there's some explaining to be done.

As in what did the President know and when did he know it?

OK? ( The okay is a cute little Rossism of course)

Truly Disturbing

Awol McWorst President ever has the stupidity to compare himself ( the worst president ever including theoretical nightmare constructs of what a worst president ever would be like even in theory) to George Washington and to compare the American Revolution to the Bush war on evil doers.

I hope most of America is cringing that President smirking McTorture Boy who has single handedly destroyed anything that was still good in America for a generation finally recognizes that their leader is beyond delusional and is a full blown psychiatric case.

So this was the promise of the founders in Bush's twisted sick mind. An evil empire of murderers, energy marauders, shameless thugs torturing the innocent and removing the rights of Americans, exposing CIA agents and attacking all that was great in the promise of America's future.

Well the other George must be rolling in his grave saying leave my memory the hell alone you sociopathic moron. The only other true comparison Bush could have made to past leaders he resembles would have been in Nazi Germany.

Hillary Light?

End Of The Line

An interesting perspective, that the groups in Iraq that Iran may be arming are the same groups in Iraq that the U.S. is supporting.

Groups that previously have been responsible for acts of terrorism against the U.S. are now allies... but helping who?

I guess this is just another reason, as if any more were needed for just getting the hell out.

Operation FUBAR

Sorry Mr. Taggert, Operation Surge ain't goin to plan.

Now don't get depressed again , we can always send in Mongo?

Who would have thought that Iraqi commanders ( being Shiite of course, as anyone Sunni was driven underground or fired 4 years ago) are giving 'Surge' targets to the U.S. that are only Sunnis?

Jesus.....that wasn't predictable?

Who would have thought that an operation starting a month after Bush announced it to all, isn't finding any weapons or insurgents anywhere in Baghdad?

Jesus....that wasn't predictable?

Who were the idiots that planned this operation and set it up as a 'last attempt plan' dooming any future efforts? Below is a rare group picture of the special operation surge organisers in their undisclosed Pentagon location.

Make Georgie Laugh

Iraqi insurgents offer peaceful withdrawal for U.S. forces in return for concessions?

People don't have rights when a superior force invades and occupies their country. Give us a break Iraq.

Who the hell do these Iraqis, I mean terrorists, think they are?

And what concessions? Rip up the made in Washington Iraq constitution that divides oil revenues and prevents anyone from suing the U.S. or the U.S from being liable or responsible for turning the area into a toxic nightmare for generations?

Ha. Next they'll want war reparations and an apology from the Bush and Cheney families.

Pirates and marauders don't make concessions.

Relax, Don't Do It

Evil scumbag traitor, war profiteer and energy marauder Darth Cheney has essentially been completely outed now as the motivator behind exposing a CIA agents identity and in attacking Joe Wilson inappropriately from the White House and in producing deliberate wrong intel to run a country into an illegal war but hey, relax, no consensual activity with an intern was involved.

So, clearly not impeachable issues.

And after all, he is a Republican. They're expected to do that kind of stuff?

So let's just carry on, no one get upset and when a Dem's in the White House in 2008 it will of course be back to lies lies lies and sex sex sex.

We Interrupt Today's News Headlines For Knitted Kittens

Treason For Two

The Plame trial is making it clear that Cheney, not Libby his minion, was orchestrating a smear campaign against Joseph Wilson.

This is a severe abuse of his authority and easily an impeachable offence, if the Dems chose to act like Republicans.

It's also becoming clear that Bush knew what was going on even though he claimed to be serious about getting to the bottom of the outing of a CIA agent.

What does Bush or Cheney have to do to get impeached anyway?

The picture below, recreated of course in lego, shows Cheney in happier days, shooting an old friend in the face. Ah, the good old days.

Escalating Evil

What about slashing medical care for the poor and the elderly to help pay for more deaths in Iraq?

Bush has that covered too.

More Treason At The Top

At the same time that treasonous inveterate liars George and Dick are blaming all troubles on Iran in an apparent run up to 'lie the nation into war' part 2, the latest National Intelligence Estimate is saying the opposite, that Iranian or Syrian involvement is not likely a major driver of the violence. Well what would they know? The NIE is only a consensus view of all 16 U.S. intelligence agencies.

Impeachment is necessary, now, for both.

Death Wish In Iran

Nobody can put you in a state of extra strength Sartrian existential despair faster than the lying smirking petulant sociopathic emperor chimp, Awoll McAsshole.

Seriously. There aren't enough troops to secure Baghdad so obviously a ground offensive against Iran or even Grenada at this time is out of the question? Well, assuming you were sane or an adult, neither of which Bush is.

But the U.S. has lots of planes and bombs and there isn't currently more carrier/naval presence since 2003 in the Gulf for nothing. Bush's plans are crumbling and he's being backed into a corner. Military strikes are his only source of power now.

They were going to give ironclad proof that Iran was supplying insurgents in Iraq. But now they've gone back to the drawing board to retool the evidence. Stephen 'Dr. Strangelove' Hadley is mad. Who cares. You shouldn't be in Iraq. All Muslim countries support fellow clan in other Muslim countries who are at war.

Let's assume Iran is supporting insurgents. Who would they be supporting? Only one group is friendly to Iran and that's the Shiite militants. But those are the allies of the U.S.

Maliki and the Shiites are the main supporters of the U.S., (more accurately those tolerating U.S. presence to defeat Sunnis) in Iraq.

Who kills the most U.S. troops in Iraq? The Sunni insurgents. Who supports them? Every other Sunni dominated government in the M.E. Like Saudi Arabia. Well they get a pass because of their close ties to the Bush/Cheney cabal. But Bush/Cheney have no business dealings with Syria. So they could be bombed too. Bombing will not resolve issues. Bombing will ensure future suffering and problems for Americans. Guaranteed.

So what should the U.S. do? Get out now. That wont happen. Talk? That's admitting personal defeat for Bush and he obviously doesn't care how many die in this lost cause = despair.

Clinically, if one ascribes to psychiatric opinion, this a manifested death wish which usually leads to suicide. In this case, national suicide.

Deja Vu to '72

Seriously?

What has to be done to end this imperialist adventure for oil in the Middle East?

Does it necessarily have to drag on in human misery and agony until the current misadministration from hell is gone? Why is that, when everyone agrees it's wrong and finished?
