Just saw this footage on French TV and wondered why it wasn't mentioned in US --
BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Al Jazeera television Saturday broadcast a videotape from the Islamic Army of Iraq showing a huge explosion against a U.S. foot patrol near Fallujah although it didn't explicitly link it to the attack that killed 10 Marines.
The al Jazeera announcer, however, noted the 10 Marine deaths Thursday near Fallujah as the tape aired.
The tape showed ground troops walking down a street on both sides of a Humvee when a huge fireball engulfed the scene, sending terrified Iraqi bystanders scrambling for their lives.
Al Jazeera said the Islamic Army also claimed responsibility for a series of other attacks against U.S. forces north of Baghdad, in Nasiriyah and another in Fallujah.
The ambush against the Marines from Regimental Combat Team 8 occurred Thursday outside Fallujah, the former insurgent bastion overrun by U.S. forces in November 2004. The Marine unit, based at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, has suffered some of the highest casualties of the Iraq war.
The U.S. command didn't release many details of the attack, but a witness said it occurred near a mill in the village of Amiriyat al Fallujah, just outside the city.
"More than 20 troops entered there and a huge explosion happened," said Mohsen Mohammed. "Afterward, the helicopters and tanks arrived in the area."
CBS News reported Friday night the troops entered the area in response to a tip but the tip may have been a set up.
In another video, also aired by al Jazeera, a group calling itself the Mujahedeen of Tal Afar claimed responsibility for destroying an American Bradley Fighting Vehicle as it passed in a sandy road in the northern city. The video showed that the bomb exploded under the Bradley but al Jazeera said it wasn't clear whether the footage were authentic.

Meanwhile, from the "Lies and the Lying Liars" dept:
The 100,000 pages of documents that Blanco sent to Congress on Friday include a series of letters starting with one Blanco sent
President Bush a day before the hurricane hit.
"I have determined that this incident will be of such severity and magnitude that effective response will be beyond the capabilities of the state and the affected local governments and that supplementary federal assistance will be necessary," Blanco wrote.
Three days after the storm, Blanco wrote Bush asking that the 256th Louisiana National Guard Brigade be sent home from
Iraq to help. The governor also asked for more generators, medicine, health care workers and mortuaries.
Five days later, Bush assistant Maggie Grant e-mailed Blanco aide Paine Gowen to say that the White House did not receive the letter.
"We found it on the governor's Web site but we need 'an original,' for our staff secretary to formally process the requests she is making," Grant wrote. "We are on the job but appreciate your help with a technical request. Tnx!"
The stack of documents also includes a timeline put together by Blanco's staff detailing the state response; notes expressing frustration about missing items such as a communications center for police and rescuers promised by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency; and e-mails working out logistics for New Orleans visits from Bush and cabinet members.
White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said Saturday that she hadn't seen the documents...
That's nice, dear. No go clean your room.

Just finished watching C-Span's book program in which Mary Mapes - the CBS reporter behind W's failure to fulfill his guard service story - was interviewed about her upcoming book by Brent Bozell (the head of a RW media monitoring organization).
Fascinating interview in several respects: 1) Conservative writers, on the program, get mushy interviews where their points are not dissected full throttle, whereas Mapes' perspective was attacked piece by piece throughout the entire interview 2) Mapes has come to the realization (just like many of us) that there is a coherent right wing apparatus that goes after anyone that stands in their way

NY Times -- the Iraq victory strategy put out by White House this week was written by a pollster
In their paper, "Casualty Sensitivity and the War in Iraq," which is to be published soon in the journal International Security, Dr. Feaver and his colleagues wrote: "Mounting casualties did not produce a reflexive collapse in public support. The Iraq case suggests that under the right conditions, the public will continue to support military operations even when they come with a relatively high human cost."
The role of Dr. Feaver in preparing the strategy document came to light through a quirk of technology. In a portion of the document usually hidden from public view but accessible with a few keystrokes, the plan posted on the White House Web site showed the document's originator, or "author" in the software's designation, to be "feaver-p."

"Three days after the storm, Blanco wrote Bush asking that the 256th Louisiana National Guard Brigade be sent home from Iraq to help. The governor also asked for more generators, medicine, health care workers and mortuaries.
Five days later, Bush assistant Maggie Grant e-mailed Blanco aide Paine Gowen to say that the White House did not receive the letter.
"We found it on the governor's Web site but we need 'an original,' for our staff secretary to formally process the requests she is making," Grant wrote. "We are on the job but appreciate your help with a technical request. Tnx!"
(the whitehouse doesn't allow emoticons, so an assist was provided ms grant she no doubt wanted judging from her email)

Bush hates New Orleans.
Why?
Joe Liberal in the South
Nah, he just doesn't give a shit. Before Katrina, I bet he couldn't find NOLA on a map. Probably can't, even now...

(Mapes cont'd)
3)Mapes, who along with Rather, got fired over the documentation, maintains that the internal memos regarding W's failute to attend servicies were authentic, that experts came to differing conclusions about their authenticity. She based her conclusions on collaborating interviews & the fact that defined print spacing & subscripts were used in typewriters then, contrary to the blogs & right wingers point about the kernels not existing 4) Mapes claims that CBS just caved after the right wing onslaught, not because of the evidence but because of the pressure 5)Bozell continually pursured the line of attack that Bush was treated unfairly, that Clinton, Gore weren't subject to similar scrutiny over their service issues (hah).

Which is why every time you deal with a right winger you need to shove that ignorant shit right back down their throats and send their severed head back to their little sugar daddies.
No prisoners, only fertilizer.
Just got back from having a meal with a group of folks I've worked with in a volunteer capacity for
the last twelve years. One couple brought along a guy who used to work with us. His kid went to school with my older kids, so of course I asked after his son. He said his son had graduated the U of Michigan with a degree in poly sci and was working in the home office of some Congressman from Michigan. He proudly told me his son had met Tom DeLay. My reply was "I hope he washed his hands real good after that."
The Dem couple in the group started to laugh; a dear friend, Republican but not hopelessely so, blanched, and from the look on his face, I'd say the man in question immediately took me off his Xmas card list.

dirk gently, sociopathetic
well, i still don't entirely like dean, i hated him as a canidate (he would have been savaged) i don't know what the term would have been, but swift boating would not have covered it.
still, he's been right on every pronouncement. not a little bit right, but like a sledge hammer on a 10 inch spike right. no one can refute that. except the batshit insane. unfortunately, that is the powers that be.

L. Brent Bozell III "serves as Executive Director of the Conservative Victory Committee (CVC). An independent multi-candidate political action committee, the CVC has helped to elect dozens of conservative candidates over the past ten years. He has also served as National Finance Chairman for the Buchanan for President campaign, and Finance Director and later President of the National Conservative Political Action Committee."
As a longtime conservative shill his line of questioning ain't much of a shock.
13thregeneration: Its not the line of questioning but the ferocity with which he went after her.

Just finished watching C-Span's book program in which Mary Mapes - the CBS reporter behind W's failure to fulfill his guard service story - was interviewed about her upcoming book by Brent Bozell (the head of a RW media monitoring organization).
Fascinating interview in several respects: 1) Conservative writers, on the program, get mushy interviews where their points are not dissected full throttle, whereas Mapes' perspective was attacked piece by piece throughout the entire interview 2) Mapes has come to the realization (just like many of us) that there is a coherent right wing apparatus that goes after anyone that stands in their way
(cont'd below)

Bozell is a nutcase, so this is amazing even for C-Span. Bozell is revealed in all his craziness in David Brock's excellent book The Republican Noise Machine as is this entire right wing apparatus that was long in the making.

JT: I've seen this several times on C-Span's weekend book segment: conservative writers get pleasant, temperate interviewers who seem mushy liberals & ask polite questions while liberal authors, or those who write critically of right wing schenanigans, get these obnoxious, bulldog right wingers interviewing them. There's definitely a pattern here.
