Kafka's "The Trial" Moves to Canada

We don't charge terror suspects like other criminals. As pointed out by Alison at Creekside from the star.com,

"Under the anti-terror legislation, the government doesn't need to prove an accused terrorist took part in or even knew about a specific plot.
All it has to prove is that he knowingly participated in the activities of a terrorist group and contributed either directly or indirectly to anything "enhancing" its abilities."



In Kafka's 'The Trial', Joseph K. was condemned and considered guilty with simply having been charged. In the U.S. rights were circumvented with Guantanamo, a place to indefinitely hold people without any human rights considerations, people mostly rounded up without evidence or just cause in many cases.

In Canada we create a crime, have a trial, then convict people even for their thoughts and associations apparently...

And here I was thinking that it's lucky the technology doesn't exist yet to determine subconscious crimes... as I've had a few directed towards certain political figures...

Cats Have Dreams Too

Happy Caturday to indoor cats everywhere.

Memorial to Another Hero

A memorial to the courage of the Iraqi shoe thrower.

George wasn't capable of catching the irony, that the most dangerous nation on earth that had to be invaded for our safety was so dangerous that the only defense we'll remember is that some guy threw a shoe back.

Bush is a monster.

Hmmm...

It's not like she hasn't heard that one before.....the little cutie.

$20 Billion in Bonuses

Boundless greed...

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised God doesn’t work that way, so I stole one and prayed for forgiveness.- Emo Philips

Banksy in New Orleans

Heh

Poor George, has to suck it up in his new Dallas mansion in a former whites only enclave...that until recently continued to segregate...
poor George watching the gradual exposure of the truth, that one man's delusion and total incompetence is everyone else's national nightmare....sadly of epic proportions.

ZZ Top Brown Sugar

Just the thing after a long day...

Great Expectations

Harbinger of Hope

The worlds intelligent, competent professionals have been locked away for 8 years during our modern equivalent to medieval darkness, is it possible now, that unleashed on the worlds challenges, could these competent among us resolve all of our problems so elegantly?

I hope this is an omen of things to come.

CNN's Rick Sanchez vs.

Heckuva Job Georgie

Bush has thought long and hard about the federal response to Katrina and he has decided that they couldn't have done more....in fact they did a heckuva job...

This man is too stupid to ever get it...his catastrophic failures...and he's really the only case for water boarding just because he's an arrogant stupid bastard beyond any rehabilitation who must meet some reckoning...somewhere...sometime...for wilful negligence causing many many deaths and endless suffering.

A Fine Choice

Maybe he`s too intelligent or too moral for the Senate?

Bad Time To Quit Smoking

Felicitous Caturday

And what will this Caturday bring....peace on earth, economic prosperity and good health for all?....oh that's right, that shangrila is sadly not our world...here on glorious earth, everything is wasted or fought over with needless suffering for all....which is why cats forbear dogma.

Is We Winnin' Yet?

After recent intelligence gathering successes attributed to giving away free Viagra to Afghan war lords with too many young wives, the newest U.S strategy in Afghanistan is to arm everyone with AK-47s and hope for the best in the ensuing shootout....

Merry Holidays

2009 sucks already.

Behind all of the economic fear and confusion...

We're being robbed by the super rich. Which makes no sense to want more when you already have more than everyone?

$1.6 Billion in bonuses to executives of banks getting bail outs!

The demands for more carry on...

"Benefits included cash bonuses, stock options, personal use of company jets and chauffeurs, home security, country club memberships and professional money management, the AP review of federal securities documents found."

This is how the wealthy repay you when during war time, they get the largest share of tax cuts.

Where's the revolution?

Maybe We Should Bail Out the Environment First

We could probably kick start a new 21st century economy bailing out the environment... and still put the Bush administration on trial at the same time...

Blagojevich speaks, says he's done nothing wrong

This guy breaks me up...has to be a coke head or owe a ton of money to lie that bad....

Santa's Next?

Justice....

Will a nation of laws give a pass to the most corrupt administration ever?

Heh

Horrifying art...but I can't look away...Marcel Duchamp revisited?

He'll be missed like the putrid pall of death shrouding the Middle Ages...where nothing was accomplished, science was evil and religious nuts justified cruelty and torture to stay in power.

There's a Reckoning Pardner

So Obama meets with the incompetent boy king of disasters tomorrow...I would hope but doubt that Obama raises the issue of a string of murders from Katrina to Iraq caused by the willful incompetence of a President who must face justice soon...or justice will be hollow in America...I hope Obama raises the issue that no one is above the law and that no one can lie a nation into an unnecessary war without consequences...

Damn!

Cindy McCain fretting about paying more taxes...will she be able keep the 13 houses?

Reagan's Chief of Staff on Palin's lack of qualifications

So John's hiring judgement wouldn't cut it at your local McDonalds...maybe this whole mavericky thing is just a euphemism for incompetent...stupid?

Rats

Can the McSame Failin ticket get so bad that even Bush distances himself from them?

Selling Crazy

Selling the wacked out right to voters ain't goin' so well, ya betcha...

It's the eleventh hour and time for Focus on the Family to take over with the usual vote for Obama means certain terrorist attacks, gay marriage, Russian take over of Eastern Europe and last but not least, a Supreme court that allows homosexuals in the Boy Scouts... sleeping with young boys in tents...yes...Obama will raise your taxes and destroy the Boy Scouts...

McCain supporter: Obama is anti-American

A new McCarthyism is where it's all been going.
This lady defines dangerous whackjob.

Doing God's Will From the Governors Office

It's hard, very hard work doing the Lord's work.

It's good to have lots of money to spend on important projects.

Sure, her friends all have guns but no one will get hurt when they actually secede from the Union.

I guess there can be only one George Bush per lifetime...although she did fill her legislature with unqualified friends and cronies and learned to do official monkey business on private email accounts and challenged any detractors as disloyal and haters of the cause.

Thanx-Caturday

30 days & 30 nights of Rovian Politics to Go

Jesus Christ America!

It's desperation time for the Repuke ticket.

Palin is regurgitating that Obama said that the U.S is bombing Afghan villages ,killing civilians and that this should disqualify him from being President. Not far from the sad truth but not even what he said.

What he said of course, over a year ago, was that more troops are needed rather than a sole reliance on air power which inevitably kills innocent civilians .

So the claim is bogus and patently stupid however..and there are many examples...shouldn't someone who believes that dinosaurs existed at the time of Jesus be disqualified from holding office above mayor of Alaska's meth capital?

Exactly

Bailout Failout

Bush has finally lost his scaremongering touch = No bailout for the wall street criminal elite.
Why wouldn't you expect these corrupt people to steal the bailout money too?

Maybe there will be better options that actually do something for the economy.
How about $700 billion to save the environment and create millions of green jobs?

Fail

Bailing Out The Bush Pyramid Scam

Or...is it a Nigerian e-mail scam?

Dear American:
I need to ask you to support an urgent secret business relationship with a transfer of funds of great magnitude.I am Ministry of the Treasury of the Republic of America. My country has had crisis that has caused the need for large transfer of funds of 800 billion dollars US. If you would assist me in this transfer, it would be most profitable to you.I am working with Mr. Phil Gram, lobbyist for UBS, who will be my replacement as Ministry of the Treasury in January. As a Senator, you may know him as the leader of the American banking deregulation movement in the 1990s. This transaction is 100% safe.This is a matter of great urgency. We need a blank check. We need the funds as quickly as possible. We cannot directly transfer these funds in the names of our close friends because we are constantly under surveillance. My family lawyer advised me that I should look for a reliable and trustworthy person who will act as a next of kin so the funds can be transferred.Please reply with all of your bank account, IRA and college fund account numbers and those of your children and grandchildren to wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov so that we may transfer your commission for this transaction. After I receive that information, I will respond with detailed information about safeguards that will be used to protect the funds.

Yours Faithfully Minister of Treasury Paulson

Snowbilly Soaps

Don't Question Me

Way ahead of Bush/Rove and all on her own little guile...wow!

1) Hire unqualified friends and cronies to maintain absolute loyalty.
2)Label anyone who challenges you 'haters' to be attacked or fired.
3)Conduct government business on private email accounts so they can never be subpoenaed.
4) If you repeat a lie often enough it becomes the truth.

Lincoln Chafee on Sarah Palin

'Cocky wacko'...muahaha

One former GOP senator agrees that Palin would be insane in a position of authority.

Much is made of her thin qualifications but experience is insignificant compared to whether her world view is dangerous...
unless voters are keen on a second Crusade to top off the Bush years.

Hail Mary Away....

Newt Gingrich in drag... I thought he'd move to the center with Lieberman instead of this far right snowbilly surprise.

McCain admits that he can't use a computer yet...well this demonstrates the kind of pick you make when you're not on the internet!

The trail of malfeasance wasn't too hard to find from this do as I say not as I do train wreck.

Ready to Lead the Free World

Big night for the Mayor of Wasilla.

Doesn't believe in evolution, sex education, human contributions to global warming and has no interest in world politics, ....aka=Republican candidate for VP...

but she is skilled at shooting wolves from a helicopter and lying about her record.

Vacuous barracuda...check.

Insufferable Quisling

I hope this disloyal buffoon has jerked off Bush and McSame for the last time.

Disappear like Zell Miller.
