Happy Year End...
I wonder if Dick Cheney and Scooter Libby are making any new year resolutions?"Randall Samborn, spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office, said he had no comment, but hopes to become very talkative in 2007!"

The EPA Closes its Libraries, Destroys Documents
Dear .....,
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has begun closing its nationwide network of scientific libraries, effectively preventing EPA scientists and the public from accessing vast amounts of data and information on issues from toxicology to pollution. Several libraries have already been dismantled, with their contents either destroyed or shipped to repositories where they are uncataloged and inaccessible.
Members of Congress have asked the EPA to cease and desist. Please call EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson at (202) 564-4700 and tell him that scientists and the public should retain access to this information. Urge him to immediately halt the dismantling of the library system until Congress approves the EPA budget and all materials are readily available online.
Please note: The EPA may tell you that the Union of Concerned Scientists has its facts wrong.
Sincerely,
Michael Halpern
National Field Organizer

Hmmm...Could this possibly have anything to do with global warming?? And, that huge, ancient chunk of ice breaking free of the ice shelf in Canada?
What a cute photo;-)
CC I like your list:-D
Markie, I bet you're right, they went about things the wrong way heehee
S-Q Someone told me that a couple of weeks ago, but only knew a few details-heard officials were shredding lot's of EPA studies! whats next???
Meeting a GF for a late lunch, have a great Friday everyone!
If I were Fitz I would not accept anything from Libby or Cheney. Not even Krispy Kremes.
Aaawwww...those puppy dogs are so darn cute in those silly hats! I should take them for a run...
We'd love to hear Randall speak this year! I bet he does have a proficient vocabulary even without practice. Did he get his KK?
Fitzie,
How about a New Year's Prediction thread this weekend...I'm sure JBs would enjoy prognosticating about 2007.
Hope you are getting your beauty sleep for the trial.
After their many criminal acts it's not much now that either can say to change it. Reading about President Ford's view of a loyal Republican looks like not even Libby can save Dick. Libby is like the loyal soldier but this time he should have looked to save himself. Bush should be looking for a real friend that he can appoint of Vice President who will pardon him like Ford did for Nixon. Ford laid a bomb on the Republican party and the White House. As he knew what he did wrong in 1974 he corrected in 2006. He planned to have his views aired by Woodward for the world to hear. The GOP can't get him to retract his statement or protect the Administration this time. Sweet as we heard all those wonderful remarks about how great, smart and caring Ford was as President from his GOP family. Only to have the bomb of how he disagreed the next day. Does the Republicans still honor a leader who totally disagreed and was the one who had to heal the country from that other corrupt President. You can bet Bush is smoking those mary jane's and drinking his booze this New Years.
Why hasn't Fitz let America see Randall as he's the go to man at the DOJ. The public should see what the spokesman looks like. I have a picture of him in my mind something like Orlando Bloom or Brad Pitt. I could be wrong or right.
I resolve to go hunting as soon as possible. Wanna come along Fitzgerald?

I want some of that cloned milk for my cereal
What will be the resolutions for Dead Eye Dick and baby cojones Irve. Well, Irve can't ask to be tall! LOL! More and likely those two bastards are praying that their plans don't foil! But, both of them will seal thier fate.. Both of them are finished..
Interesting listening to Woodward's tape of Ford last night on the news. Ford told Woodward to release that conversation of his opposing the Gerbil about Iraq after his death. I think that Ford wanted to protect his legacy and release that huge guilt that he had done to the American people in the past when he pardoned Nixon. Maybe he didn't want history repeat itself and he knew that thie was the Nixon era all over again with some of the same players.. But, nevertheless, Ford screwed the Gerbil in death by the release of those tapes. It will be on the lips of people..
My gf taped Oprah with Obama. I watched it. He said someone interesting. Obama said that the world of politics have changed and become divided. The focus has been politics and wealth and not doing the right thing. Maybe that is what Ford did in the end: do the right thing and speak out against Iraq. We all have to look for the candidate for 2008 who will do the right thing for the country and for the American people rather than the political party...Also, Edward's book: Two Americas, which he written when he was running for office with Kerry (which I downloaded for free on Edward's website some time ago) has exactly come true unfortunately.
Remember folks:
"God told me to attack Iraq"
That's right! I'm not crazy because God actually told me to attack another nation so he must not be a loving God
And regarding Randall? My prediction is he will say "no comment." But, I sound love for him to say after the "no comment" comment: Samborn out! That would be priceless...
*lol*
I'm too professional to say Samborn out! No further comment.
"I'm too professional to say Samborn out! No further comment.'
LOL! Yeah, whatever.. You need to loosen up Randall.. Do you prefer Grey Poupon on your hotdog or the 75 cent non-brand mustard, Sir, Randall?
Biloxi if I were as loose as you are we would discussing gas leaks instead of CIA leaks!
SPB's not loose- be nice!
It isn't nice to discuss human gas on the Prosecutor's blog.

That's interesting.
I got a lot of hits this month from the EPA to my website.
Kathleen, www.ActionLyme.org
EPA libraries - well, nobody wants big government.
Let's save money and outsource the jobs to some government contractor. That's what happened years ago to the EPA libraries.
This is just a continuation and erosion of information - by shortsighted politicians (let's cut the debt save money etc) that should be used to make decisions based on real facts/research/data/statistics. Now we can just be like those other Eastern block countries and make-up the stuff!
It's not just important for the government to have that information; it's also used by the private sector.
Does Fitz really need Lisa's permission to investigate ?
Hi. The CSM had some articles about the EPA online this month. Here's one about the library

Official: Saddam to Be Executed Tonight
An adviser to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said Saddam would be executed before 6 a.m. Saturday, or 10 p.m. Friday EST. Also to be hanged at that time were Saddam's half-brother Barzan Ibrahim and Awad Hamed al-Bandar, the former chief justice of the Revolutionary Court, the adviser said.

Stephanie:
I had said to my gf and others that that is not the real Saddam from the get go. I became suspicious when they found Saddam wondering a cave... Remember, Saddam has made known that he had doubles. Saddam is a very clever person.. I just don't believe that this is a cut and dry case of executing Saddam. I just believe that the last laugh will be on the Gerbil... Good point for bringing up that comment..

After all Saddam and Rumpelt were real buddies!
That's why I say that this War on Terror is bs of the first magnitude.
They're all buddies..
Don't get me wrong. I do know there are real Terrorist out there that want to do us big time harm. But I believe the real Terrorist are aligned with Nations who are financing the killing.
Cut off the head, the food, and the fangs and the snake withers and dies...
Hmmm.. An update about Apple Computer and Steve Jobs:
Apple admits board minutes were falsified over Jobs options
Apple Computer yesterday admitted that records of the board meeting that handed chief executive Steve Jobs 7.5m share options were fabricated. But the independent committee investigating the illicit backdating of stock awards cleared Mr Jobs of wrongdoing.
In its report published yesterday Apple reiterated the independent committee's findings from October that, while Mr Jobs "was aware or recommended the selection of some favourable grant dates, he did not receive or financially benefit from these grants or appreciate the accounting implications".
In a separate statement, the chairman of the special investigative committee, former presidential candidate Al Gore, and the head of Apple's audit and finance committee, Jerome York, said: "The board of directors is confident that the company has corrected the problems that led to the restatement, and it has complete confidence in Steve Jobs and the senior management team."
Currently Steve Jobs doesn't run Apple Computer. The board and shareholders run Apple Computer. Jobs needs to be very careful having someone run his empire. Even though he is cleared in wrongdoing, he will raise eyebrow to the public who wish to invest in a company such as Apple Computer..
"Maybe the Real Saddam is in Paraguay with Ken Lay!"
Saddam, Ken Lay, and Bin Laden are having drinks together in Hawaii.. Lay faked his death, Saddam had a double, and Bin Laden is frisbeeing out videos on a whim in hiding.. Amazing.. Make a good Twilight Zone remake movie...
Biloxi,
Come'on Biloxi, you really think that gerbil is gonna order the killing or capturing of Osama Bin Laden when gerbil is practically in bed with the Saudis ?
No way Jose..Won't happen!
Matter of Fact gerbil likes to use those videos when he wants to pass a law or something...
Keeping the sheople scared is the only game in town with the gerbil admin.
If the mass sheople ever loose their fear then the US Govt is gonna be in real trouble!
No! Hell no, GEF!
I was just saying that Bin :aden is frisbeeing out videos when he pleases and wondering this earth.. Of course, the Gerbil is in bed with the Saudis and so is the entire Gerbil family. They sold their souls to the Bin Laden family and the Saudis. That was clearly explain in the Michael Moore movie and the history of the Bush dynasty..

Instead of renting a boring Horror movie you can just pop in the latest Terror Warning from our Desert Movie Star Osama Bin Laden.

Folks,
Check this out from the Gerbil's website:
Presidential Message on Eid al-Adha
I send holiday greetings to all Muslims gathered to celebrate Eid al-Adha.
For Muslims in America and around the world, Eid al-Adha is an important occasion to give thanks for their blessings and to remember Abraham's trust in a loving God. During the four days of this special observance, Muslims honor Abraham's example of sacrifice and devotion to God by celebrating with friends and family, exchanging gifts and greetings, and engaging in worship through sacrifice and charity.
America is a more hopeful Nation because of the talents, generosity, and compassion of our Muslim citizens. This holiday reminds us of the values that so many of our citizens hold in common, including love of family, gratitude to God, the importance of community, and a commitment to respect, diversity, tolerance, and religious freedom.
Laura and I offer our best wishes for a memorable holiday.
And notice that the idiot President never mention the holidays in this country such as Hannikah and Kwanzaa!!! And now he reached out to Muslims in the celebration of Eid al-Adha. I don't think that the drunk knows what that celebration is. He gives his best wishes to Muslims yet racial profile Muslims in this country...
"Yep. Matter of Fact I don't understand why the Videos just aren't packaged and carried by Blockbuster video.."
GEF:
And notice that Bin Laden uses tapes instead of DVDs and mp3 players.. LOL! Yeah, I am waiting for Bin Laden's video to be available and Blockbuster or Netflix subscription... Pass the popcorn please....

I actually think that many people ARE in fact losing their fear, starting to question things, and beginning to think for themselves.
I very much look forward to this trend continuing --- and magnifying.
Stephanie,
I'm getting paid for telling you you're NOT insane!
LOLMAO*) Kidding!
We all are observing many things that just don't jive!
There's a level of Propaganda that's being thrown at the American people for reasons of an Agenda for the benefit of Business Interests and the New World Order.
We know that is happening!
S-Q, it certainly makes you wonder why those two things would be done at the same time doesn't it?
Nice dance music Geffy;-)
Yeah Jan "we" it makes me feel a little sick to think about what this "president" just keeps doing in our name and you know dubya never revokes a death sentence.
SPB said "racial profile Muslims in this country...Yup and I've met Muslims who feel afraid of this for their young adult sons-thanks again for nothing bush. Whipping up prejudice and misunderstanding wherever he goes...
But thanks to whatever, the weather has been lovely. DC is even warmer looking forward to putting some congressional types to the test next week - I hope they're ready to be converged upon by military families. I am sure each one get a visit hehe
More people calling and writing their senators and reps during this time really helps, hint hint JB's and others;-) Just send them a postcard that says END THE WAR

The Gerbil is clueless of the Muslim holiday:
Eid ul-Adha (Arabic: عيد الأضحى), or Eid-e Qurban (Persian: عید قربان) or Kurban Bayramı (Turkish) occurs on the tenth day of the Islamic month of Dhul Hijja. It is one of two Eid festivals that Muslims celebrate. Eid ul-Adha is celebrated by Muslims worldwide as a commemoration of Prophet Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son Ismael for Allah.Others celebrate Eid ul-Adha as it marks the end of the Pilgrimage or Hajj for the millions of Muslims who make the trip to Mecca each year.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eid_ul-Adha
Do you think the Gerbil will take a trip to Mecca? I don't think so. And he never mention this Muslim holiday last year...

If gerbil ever took a trip to Mecca every muslim there would instantly stop and bow to the gerbil.
The Muslims would all yell!
"All Hail the little emperor man who's made our jihad very Successful!"
Praise be to gerbil, King of the GINN!
And Tonic!
May Allah beware his Wrath!
Stephanie,
Amen!
T:
I have friends on a personal level who are born in Muslim faith or converted to Muslim religion that are feeling like they are being racial profiling.. But, the Gerbil is being a hypocrite to the Middle Eastern citizens overseas praising democracy yet showing injustice for minorities in this country... But then again, when you have a daddy like Poppy Bush who would buy the Brooklyn Bridge and wipe the Gerbil's butt everytime he gets into trouble, well, there you go...
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.

The Gerbil would not survive in Mecca. He would cry for his daddy to come pick him up! LOL! I remember a friend of mine gave me the Autobiography of Malcolm X. It was interesting reading what Malcolm X's findings in his trip to Mecca and the religion as he broke ties with the Elijah Mohammad. Someone told the Gerbil about this Muslim holiday. So, he was popped like a puppet to say something about the Muslim holiday since Hussein was going to be executed...
Biloxi,
Yeah, gerbil wouldn't do very well in Harlem either. They'd skin him alive and make a purse out of his behind.
Others would make a wig out of his white hair after they scalp him.
The gerbil would be scared out of his Al Gore.. :)

LOL! Funny photo of the Gerbil.. You know the Gerbil would be caught dead in Harlem.. Now, I haven't been in Harlem in quite sometime. But, I do know Harlem is a lot different than when I visit that area.. Could you imagine if the Gerbil gone to the Apollo Theatre? Ha Ha! that would be too funny.. You are right. He would be skinned alive in Harlem. Did you see how the Gerbil acted when he was in New Orleans with the Katrina victims? He needed a drink..

9. Scooter Libby will be exonerated. During the course of the trial Joe Wilson will be forced to testify and he will be asked questions such as, why weren't you paid by the CIA for your Nigerian trip? Why didn't you submit a written report? Why did the CIA allow you to do a op ed piece in the New York Times? How many times did you tell people your wife, Valerie Plame worked for the CIA?

Yes SPB one of my friends has a son away in college in a mid-western state and she worries about it. She knows people whose kids have been harassed.
Racial profiling was a no go in my criminal justice education. When it happens to folks you know are not terrorist material you know its gone far beyond what we consider fundamental rights as Americans
GEF:
Well whatever it is. I will never forget I watched on T.V. when he said that he was pardoning Nixon for all past, present, and future crimes.. Also, when he had to appear to Congress and explain why he pardoned Nixon. It was hard pill to swallow back then. Yes, Ford was the accident President but the year 1974 is very hard to forget in history...
Biloxi,

Did you see how the Gerbil acted when he was in New Orleans with the Katrina victims? He needed a drink..
Yep, I never seen a white boy so scared as the gerbil was in New Orleans..
He probably imagined there was a black man hiding in every nook and cranny and that one would just pop out of a manhole cover and pull him down into the underground soft underbelly of NOLA.
Hee hee hee!
Biloxi,
Oh dang-it Biloxi you let the cat out of the Bag..
Yep, I remember that Gerald Ford was prone to accidents. He would fall before every speech and on every stair case.
Those feet of his were too big for the stair case. Like walking on Clown shoes..
He must've fallen at least 150 times..
If you saw a man falling on the way in to make a speech, yep don't worry that was just Gerald Ford!

"Scooter Libby will be exonerated."
Please... Pass the weenies..

"Yep, I never seen a white boy so scared as the gerbil was in New Orleans.."
GEF:
You know as well as I do that the Gerbil has issues being in the same room with a minority. He looked like he needed a drink after Rosa Parks' funeral, Coretta Scoot King's funeral, the NAACP event, Katrina, and so on.. Yes, GEF, he will say on his soap box that he has minority friends and hire minorities in his cabinet.. But actions speaks louder than words. He put his sneakers on when he was done with his speech with the NAACP. He was sweating bullets with a hostile audience. I saw his speech. It was priceless.. LOL!
"Oh dang-it Biloxi you let the cat out of the Bag.."
Oh come on, GEF! That was a part of history that no one will forget. And of course, I remembered the Carter-Ford debate.. Remembered that?? Ford blew his chance for the Presidency.

Yup, Depends..
It was just announced that Hussein is dead.. I know I know, GEF? Show me proof.. I know you will say that..
I dug this up. The Carter-Ford debate:
Ford berated Carter again for speaking in "broad generalities" and charged him with advocating defense budget cuts. Ford also made what most observers considered to be an important blunder. In response to a question asked by Max Frankel of the New York Times concerning the Soviet influence in Eastern Europe, Ford said, "There is no Soviet domination of Eastern Europe, and there never will be under a Ford administration." Frankel responded, "I'm sorry ... did I understand you to say, sir, that the Soviets are not using Eastern Europe as their own sphere of influence in occupying most of the countries there?" Ford responded, "I don't believe ... that the Yugoslavians consider themselves dominated by the Soviet Union. I don't believe that the Romanians consider themselves dominated by the Soviet Union. I don't believe that the Poles consider themselves dominated by the Soviet Union. Each of these countries is independent, autonomous, it has its own territorial integrity, and the United States does not concede that those countries are under the domination of the Soviet Union."
In response Carter said he'd like to see Ford "convince the Polish-Americans and the Czech-Americans and the Hungarian-Americans in this country that those countries don't live under the domination and supervision of the Soviet Union behind the Iron Curtain."
News reports about the debate were dominated by Ford's statement and its potential effect on the race. Most observers felt the debate proved to be a turning point and the key to Carter's narrow electoral victory. A post-debate Gallup poll on October 15 showed Carter six percentage points ahead of Ford, 48 percent to 42 percent.

"For all I know they're just blowing air in the wind while the real Saddam gets escorted to Ken Lays Hideout!"

Biloxi,

And meanwhile the gerbil is trying desperately still trying to equate Iraq with the War on Terror.
He'll probably say something about to that effect in his next speech...
Watch the Gerbil next Biloxi.
Since the American people are pretty forgetful they'll think Saddams death has some bearing on the War on Terror and the gerbil thinks this will help his case for Escalating(surge) the war in Iraq with more troops!
No one remembers that there were no WMDs found in Iraq but that was just a minor inconvenience!
THE SPIN CYCLE IS ON MAXIMUM!
Here's the Game Plan folks:
"Saddam's Death = Progress on the War on Terror = We need a surge(Escalation) of the war!"
DOH!! TRICKED AGAIN!
Bwahahahahaha!
"No one remembers that there were no WMDs found in Iraq but that was just a minor inconvenience!'
Yes, GEF! And notice that the media is more focus on the execution of Hussein and not focused in that fact that there were never any WMDs from the get go and why we really invade Iraq? The Gerbil may think that Huseein's execution is in his favor but he is wrong on that. Bad timing. With now the release of Ford's conversation with Woodward and the 110 Congress investigation come January, the Gerbil may want wish to turn back time. Otherwise, everything that the Gerbil touches in 2007 will turn to sawdust...

Happy new year....
Couric broke in and said Saddam is dead. My niece said Arabic sites reporting he is dead.
Did the Pentagon release the names of dead soldiers that they previously hadn't said anything about, or lied about?
Final posting:
Another GOP may be bailing out of politics:
On Omaha, Nabraska KMTV Ch. 3's Thursday 6pm news, Joe Jordan reported that while Chuck Hagel won't reveal his Presidential plans until January 2007 at the earliest, two Hagel insiders said Hagel:
1) will NOT run for President
2) and will NOT run for re-election to the U.S. Senate.
There go folks! Good night! Biloxi man out!!!
Let's see what was the QUESTION? New Years Resolutions for Libby/Cheney?
"I vow to plead the FIFTH for the rest of my life - forever and ever, amen."
Fifth? Do you prefer Jack Daniels, Dewars, or Smirnoff?
I mean, my DANG LIPS IS SEELED now, rite now... yall got any duck tape... I need sum halp here, I kain't keep my own dang mouth from chammerin'.... halp sumbody......
Got inny... Ripple Wine. then pass that duck tape on over here now
Should Bush Be Hung Too?
"It looks like when you wake up tomorrow morning Bush will have had Saddam Hussein executed, hung. Brutal revenge? Primitive? Barbaric? Yeah. But I'm not crying over Saddam's carcass. The poor and the powerless and their innocent children get killed everyday as a result of decisions made by the wealthy and powerful. It's nice when ruthless political leaders take it in the neck. It happens far too rarely; it should happen far more often. I would hope Saddam's fate would put some fear into the Putins and Bushes of the world. It won't though. The question the members of the DWT team have been debating all day is whether or not Bush should also be hung. No one doubts that Bush deserves severe punishment for his gross crimes."
This from the blog Down With Tyranny! Great commentary!

NEWS ALERT
From the News:
Saddam has been executed!!!
About minutes ago...
I just saw a photo of (the real) Saddam Hussein on the AOL home/news page.
It reinforced my belief that it is Not the same person who was captured (and presumably hung).
The eyes, the face really does Not look like the same person.

Columns/All_nudists_aren_t_eq.shtml
Gee, for a couple of guys who were all aflutter a few weeks ago about nude children and nude adults mixing at a nudist camp, U.S. Rep. Mark Foley and Gov. Jeb Bush are sure quiet about Club Natura.
Foley, in need of an issue for his run for the U.S. Senate, and Bush, who has nothing more important to worry about what with all of Florida's problems solved in the recent legislative session, got their underwear in a bunch a few weeks ago when they discovered that Lake Como, a Pasco nudist resort, has been running a summer camp for 11- to 17-year-olds from nudist families off and on over the past 10 years.
Naked kids at a nudist camp, a phenomenon that has been going on since the '30s, doesn't really seem to have caught on as an issue. This despite Foley's coming up with a report that a man who was once associated with an organization that began sponsoring the camps sold legal videotapes of children participating in nude events in other countries a year after the man had left.
Published August 10, 2003
Wow. Foley should know too back in 2003. Bastards.
P.S. Look at Saddam's lower teeth in photos. Looks like they caught a double, no wonder Saddam's wife said it wasn't her husband.
Saddam's crimes against humanity and torture did it for him. What are Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and their ilk's excuses? Why are they different?
FREEDOM!
We will have to claim it, but it's ours for the taking. Happy New Year to All!
Happy New Year!

Lawyer Ends Up Dead After Taking On Rove
Wednesday December 27th 2006, 10:26 pm
It’s fishy as hell.
Paul Sanford, a prominent Aptos, California, attorney, who accused Karl Rove of treason in the Plame outing case, took a leap from the Embassy Suites Hotel in Monterey Bay on Christmas Eve. Police describe it as “probable” suicide, even though it appears Sanford was not depressed.
***********************************
Okay people, this is hugely important, and we need to take action.
This story was not picked up by any of the national mainstream media.
THIS Story --- "The Suspicious Death of Attorney Paul Sanford" ---needs to be on everyone's tongues!
Would all of you who care about the future of this country please forward this article to as many websites and other media as you possibly can?
Okay everybody:
Ready -- Set -- FORWARD!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/december2006/281206lawyer.htm
***********************************
Saddam's execution needed to be timed around Eid al-Adha and that is why Bush mentioned it. I am sure his advisors (the Saudis) told him that when Saddam is executed, even more hell will break loose in Iraq, especially if it happens during the haj. The greeting was nothing sincere at all; it was all about getting on record that he reached out to some people he knew would be very angry about Saddam's execution. Saddam had those Kurds killed while he was still considered an ally of the United States. Of course, folks from other countries will see the hypocracy in the U.S. a lot faster than most Americans. If Bush ever mentioned Kwanzaa, Hannukah, Cinco de Mayo, etc. that would just make me wonder what he is up to or whose votes he is trying to get.
Ford has been in bad health for the past few years. He was very smart to release the interviews after his death. Then he could criticize in a very professional way without having to listen to those criticized snark back and defend themselves.
The clueless at NBC were trying to convince the American people that Ford pardoned Nixon because they were buddies and played an audio tape of Nixon calling Ford while he was still majority leader (or was that minority leader). Anyway, Ford pledged support but that was *before* Nixon resigned. Dear NBC, duh. Of course while Ford was still leader and before Nixon resigned he would provide support for the president. And NBC, you folks totally missed the irony that Bob Woodward did those important interviews with Ford released after his death. That speaks volumes, even without Ford saying one word. Ford could have had his complete pick of anyone to do those interviews. There is also a journalism award named for Ford and that would not have happened without Ford's approval. That speaks volumes, too.
As for the EPA libraries closing, geez, that's old news. That has been in the works for a long time. That is supposed to be a cost cutting measure. Libraries are not considered valuable anymore. The stuff Laura does for libraries is just for show and oriented around getting little kids to read. Overall, federal funding cuts for libraries the past few years have been quite large. If you all want to look at sneaky stuff, then go look at the lists of things the federal government that is supposed to be destroyed for national security purposes that is in government depository libraries(usually found at large universities). There is the sneaky stuff.
Another brilliant insight from GrandmaNuk:
"Saddam Hussein was a poor representative of human behavior, but his steel-handed tactics kept the various Muslim sects in Iraq from falling into the chaos that we
have today."
Saddam Hussein was the Josef Broz Tito of the Muslim world.
Pelosi said in her response Friday, ''I believe the dignity and decorum of the United States House of Representatives are best preserved by maintaining the current system of televised proceedings.''
Good Morning,
Happy New Year everyone. Betty Buckaneer and I are going to a New Year's Salon for a little while on the Eve-but that's it for me.
It takes me a long time to pack;-) I wonder how many people will be in town for the Ford funeral...I'm sure DC will be more crowded than usual. And what a lovely blight to see cops walking around like Barney Bad@ss with their M-16 slung over their shoulders. I guess they forget the stat that MOST police officers never draw their weapons in the course of duty!
Nightowl and GMNUK, interesting comments:-)
I wonder if Dubya is feeling smug today, with one foe down. Too bad the rest of the world considers him a tyrant too! HA
FRODO: What a pity Bilbo did not stab the vile creature!
GANDALF: It was pity that stayed his hand.
FRODO: But he deserved to die!
GANDALF: Indeed! Many who live deserve to die, and many who die deserve life! Can you restore it to them? Then be not too quick to deal out death, for even the Wise cannot see all ends.

So, it’s official. Saddam executed. Whatever his crimes, it makes me sick that Bush and Blair are going to get away scot free.
Bush and Blair invaded Iraq because, they would have us believe, Saddam posed a threat to the rest of the world. WMDs can be fired at British territory (Cyprus?) in 45 mins, were the news headlines back in ‘03.
So, they went in there knowing this to be untrue.
In my books that counts as a war crime, the moral equivalent of Hitler’s invasion of Poland, which took place after some German soldiers dressed as poles fired on some German soldiers.
Saddam is captured, and, after a show-trial executed, as, wait for it, a war criminal.
Am I missing something?
I’m as mad as hell about all this.
I’ll give you my ha’penny worth about Ford and what the New Year has in store in a mo’.
BTW, GNMNUK, Bush doesn’t give a monkey’s about the rights of unborn babies, or for any one else for that matter.
It’s just about getting the votes of the idiot Christian right.
If Bush is a genuine Christian, then I’m Monica Lewinski.
And I’m speaking as a Christian.
I’ve just read the news on the CBS website.
By all accounts he died bravely. A darn sight more bravely than those evil creeps Blair will die when, or if, justice ever catches up with them. They’ll die soiling themselves.
It completely escaped comment in my parents' household this morning, and my father's someone who followws the news on CEEFAX religiously.
I had to choke back a tear when I read it. Not because I liked Saddam. He was a nasty piece of work. But it’s so grotesquely unfair that he pays for his crimes and others can just rewrite history.
T,
That was cool, thanks for sharing that!
A tale of three (actually four) exiles!
I've been slowly reading (for the 3rd time), Isabel Allende's House of the Spirits, and I've been reading the fictionalised, but true to history account of the coup and imposition of martial law in Chile.
Page after page of unrelenting horror.
What sticks out is that people thought that a coup couldn't happen here, could it.
And, then when it happened, they were in denial.
The right which had sanctioned it, expected the generals to hand power back to Parliament once they had sorted out the mess Allende was supposed to have got the country into, a mess orchestrated by the CIA and ITT.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Funny that three of my favourite books, all of which fall into the category of one or other kinds of magic realism, are written against the background of a coup or foreign invasion.
Milan Kundera's the unbearable Lightness of Being.
I read two essays by Milan Kundera on the Jewish contribution of the culture of Mitteleuropa (Mahler, Kafka), and how, after the annihilation of the Jews partitioning of Europe at Yalta, Central Europe ceased to exist and pan-slavism was imposed, and an extract from this book in the literary magazine, granta, in a hotel room in Arrezzo, one weekend back in 1985.
Because there was a long queue for the only copy of the English translation of this book when it came out later that year, I decided to buy it in Spanish and read it on the long trainride through the ever-changing landscape (greenery, desert, mountains) between the Basque country where I was living at the time and Madrid.
I had already begun to speak falteringly, and read, Spanish, but found the thick accent of Las Arenas very difficult to understand.
When I got to Madrid, I found I could speak Spanish better, either that, or the Madrilenos speak Spanish much more clearly.
I managed to book a hotel room without trouble at the station, and awoke the following morning feeling that I could speak a whole new language!
The second book is Isaac Bashevis Singer’s The Slave, about a Jew living in Poland in the aftermath of Bogdan Chmielnizki’s Cossack incursions into Poland in the seventeenth century.
And the third, Isabel Allende’s The House of the Spirits.
Which brings me to the main point of this comment.
If the Chilean middle-classes thought that a coup could not possibly happen in Chile, are we any wiser?
Of, course it couldn’t happen here, could it?
Could it?
A happy new year, everybody!
Jan, glad you liked it "Lord of the Rings" ;-)
Anthony, indeed he was a bad guy and that doesn't give them the right to revise history. Makes you wonder how much of our history has been "revised"...
Fitz, where ya been? Think this blog runs itself? heehee
Happy New Year to all my "Fitz blog buddies"! S-Q you've got mail:-D
T,
History gets revised as history is being made, especially in time of war, let alone after the war is over and the victors can write what they like. As Churchill said, "The first casualty of war is truth".
You can bet your bottom dollar that if truth is indeed the first casualty of war, then by the time that war nears it's end, truth is in a pretty bad way!
A classical example of how histiry is revised is the way we were told, then and now, that we had to srop the bomb on Japan because they refused to surrender.
As Gore Vidal argues, on the basis of several published books with citations, the Japanese had been willing to surrender on the condition that they retained their emperor, and had been contacting the US admin through the embassies of neutral countries.
The US insisted on unconditional surrender and dropped the bomb, as Vidal says, to frighten the Russians.
And as it happened, McArthur decided to retain the emperor anyway.
As Voltaire said, "History is a lie that is generally agreed upon!" Wise words indeed!
Churchill also said that truth was so precious it had to be rationed which, frankly, I find deeply sinister.
If you want to know why Churchill said that, read "A MAN CALLED INTREPID."

Godd morning, sleepyheads. Finally got home form work. It's been a hard day's night. I think they let their skimmer leak on that Saddam deal. Killing him is just gonna make the situation over there more unstable.

Amazing how many things fail to get reported or taught in this country. No wonder we grew up ignorant.

When Jimmy Carter was in office, he had prohibited the sale of weapons to either Iran or Iraq. Reagan removed Iraq from the list of nations that sponsored terrorism. Iraq was now eligible for U.S. government loan guarantees which he needed as the costly war was bankrupting his country. Although shipping arms to Iraq was illegal, by keeping this information secret from Congress and the American people, they were able to do an end-run around the Constitution and the War Powers Act.
Fitz , whose kids are those on our couch ?
the man who jumped out the window ?
maybe they microwaved him until he was crazy enough to jump
don't under estimate these people...........they do not want to go down
