Now The Story Can Be Told!
Much attention has been paid to Tenet's tell all book which left out this part:
W: We will invade Iraq. We will be greeted as liberators!
Tenet: Damn drunk...
Cheney: (reaching for shotgun) What did you say?
Tenet: Slam dunk! It's a slam dunk!

Move Over, MoveOn
You may recall the rigged poll that MoveOn did that left out immediate withdrawal as an option? The San Francisco Chronicle didn't. They asked, "Who's right in the Iraq war funding dispute? With over 1600 responses:
Oops
- Bush - 23%
- Congress - 30%
- Withdraw all troops now - 46%
From the Boston Globe In mosquito, a small tale of climate change
The unobtrusive mosquito's story illustrates a sobering consequence of climate change: The species best suited to adapting may not be the ones people want to survive. Scientists say species with short life cycles -- Wyeomyia smithii lives about eight weeks -- can evolve quickly and keep up with changing environmental conditions as a result. Rodents, insects, and birds, some carrying diseases deadly to humans, are genetically programmed to win. Polar bears and whales, which take years to reproduce, are not.Is that what they mean by the meek shall inherit the earth? Mosquitos and cockroaches? Thanks, Bush junta, for misleading the public about global warming.

Strolling To Armageddon
Never misunderestimate Bush's love for his quagmire. The White House Scales Back Talk of Iraq Progress In other words, the surge ain't working. Surprise!

Reign Over Me
I just saw Reign Over Me.
Adam Sandler did well and Don Cheadle, as always was great. The movie was especially poignant for me because while Adam Sandler played Don Cheadle's roommate in college my brother actually was Don's roommate.
Rich Little Had A Chance At Greatness

Rich Little had a chance at greatness but he didn't take it and he bombed at the correspondents' dinner. The noted Nixon impersonator could have made an entire routine out of things Bush did that Nixon got nailed for. He ducked comedy greatness and went for bland.

Stephen Colbert Gets Bombed
Google bombed that is. Yes, they still work except for when Google writes special code to protect George Bush from online criticism.
Bonus question - where were Stephen Colbert and I mentioned in the same article?
Obviously Congress Didn't Go About It Right

Uh-Oh
Headline: U.S. downplays Sadr bloc's decision to quit Iraqi gov't
When has the Bush junta ever been right about anything?

Your Taxes Are Due The 17th*
They aren't due on the 15th this year because it is Sunday. Do you know why it isn't the 16th? Happy Emancipation Day in D.C.!
*Rich Republicans are apparently exempted.

Be Careful What You Wish For When Irony Becomes Tragedy
George Bush, the aWol who got an early "honorable" discharge, has extended the combat stay of American soldiers in his lovely disaster once again.

Calling All Free Trade Sociopaths!
Time and again we are told sending our manufacturing jobs to China and our tech jobs to India is good for America and there is nothing the government can do because the WTO demands it. Funny, the WTO has declared America's anti-Internet gambling laws protectionist. The U.S. is ignoring it. Gambling over the Internet in a country that allows it does seem to be classic, textbook free trade. Perhaps Bill Bennet can hold forth on this issue.
How Will The Bush Junta React?
George "Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists" Bush might have to make some comment on the Pope's lament on the "continual slaughter" in Iraq and "nothing positive" from Iraq.

Gingrich's "Apology"
Gingrich apologized for his remarks about Spanish speaking people in Spanish. This is being spun as how sensitive and rehabilitated he is. However, I think he did it in Spanish so that his base wouldn't pay attention to it.

There Is Always An Agenda
Atrios gives kudos to Florida governor for restoring felons' rights to vote. Yay! Rush Limbaugh and Mark Foley can vote! Why isn't Florida's white Republican governor so quick to restore the voting rights of the 50,000 black Americans that Harris purged?
It's Going So Well In Iraq!®
This little piggie went to market. This little piggie stayed home. This little...
We interrupt this fable to report that the market the first little piggie went to visit was blown up the next day.

Stop It! Stop It! Stop It!
While it is good news that Obama and Clinton don't have to worry about financing their Presidential bids I find it disgusting that it is seen as a proxy for their fitness to be President. This is supposed to be a democracy not a plutocracy.

I Saw President Kerry Today
Yes, I believe Ohio was stolen. Sen. Kerry is a great speaker in person. TV doesn't do him justice.

Yeaarrrrrggghhh!
That's the spirit! Reid Says He'll Try to Cut Off War Funds
Like HTML Mencken Says
"In other words, these creeps are fuck-ups, and corrupt ones to boot. Stupid and evil — which might be the perfect catchphrase for our epoch."

Obama Flunkies Himself For Bush
Shortly after schooling Bush, Obama rolls over and ends up looking like a Bush flunkie.
Of course, if we stop funding the war just think how quickly Halliburton and Cheney will lose interest in it.
"I think that nobody wants to play chicken with our troops on the ground," said Obama.Sorry, Senator, the better response is: It is too bad Bush wishes to play chicken with our soldiers' lives by vetoing their funding.
Of course, if we stop funding the war just think how quickly Halliburton and Cheney will lose interest in it.
