June 8th will be remembered as a good day for freedom loving peoples everywhere. In Iraq, the brutal terrorist and Al Qaeda mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was killed in a U.S. air strike. And in Washington, the indicted former House Majority leader and K Street mastermind Tom Delay bid adieu to Congress.
But while Zarqawi went out with a bang, Delay hardly went out with a whimper. For the details, see:
"Delay's Parting Shots."

Chimpy is going to Crawford next weekend. it might be his 1st visit since Katrina, at the very least one of the rare visits he's made there since last August.
Is Wilson talking about his impending indictment?
June 8 will be remembered by freedom-loving people everywhere as another day of lies, chicanery and downright bad business by the Cheney administration. The Zarqawi story is already falling apart, and Tom The Asshole Delay obviously hasn't learned anything about Americaq, and won't until he spends several years in prison. Avengingangel is another tool in the box of rocks that is the American Right, Always Wrong.

As Chimpy bikes with the Danish PM, all hell breaks loose in Gaza
Six people, including three children, have been killed by Israeli shells which hit a beach in the northern Gaza Strip, Palestinian officials say.
They say at least 25 people were wounded in the shelling.
The Israeli military says it has halted all shelling of Gaza and has launched an inquiry into whether ground-based artillery could have been involved.
I took a leak in my hat.

Did it start with; "What are you wearing?"
Oh, now, Tom DeLay is the paragon of righteous, American manlitude, a veritable Cincinattus of Sugarland, a towering myth of wisdom and strength sprung to colorful life!

Al Qaeda mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi
As Prof. Juan Cole has explained, Zarqawi was never part of al-Qaeda. He merely copped the name as a bit of clever marketing.
He had no connection to Bin Laden, who is STILL a free man, thank you George Bush.
Is Wilson talking about his impending indictment?

Really, DeLay has been fooling us all these years. He's really William S. Burroughs, living out some bug-powder induced nightmare of centipedes and mugwumps. Just too horrid, exterminating rational thought.

Wave to the camera, Atrios. they keep panning over the crowd.
Republican U.S. Rep. Marilyn Musgrave's re-election campaign was already heated, and it just got smelly as well: Her staff accused a Democratic activist Thursday of leaving an envelope full of dog feces at Musgrave's Greeley office.
Musgrave spokesman Shaun Kenney said someone stuffed the envelope through the mail slot in the door on May 31 and then sped away in a car. Kenney said most of the preprinted return address was blacked out, but staffers used the nine-digit ZIP code to trace it to Kathleen Ensz, a Weld County Democratic volunteer.
Ensz told The Associated Press she left the envelope at Musgrave's office but said it "wasn't in the office doors, it was in the foyer." Asked what she meant by the act, she declined comment.

Yeah, that inquiry is going to go real far. I am sure they'll find that the women and children were poised to shell Israel from their position on the beach. Trouble is, they won't point out that the shells in question were seashells.

'If you spot Waco pastor Steve Kreins handing out $1 million bills, don’t be alarmed. Rather than peddling funny money, the senior pastor of First Church of God says he is just trying to spread the good word.
For the past several weeks, Kreins has distributed religious tracts in the form of bogus bills. While Kreins and others who give out the pretend money stress they are simply using a novel means to spread their message, U.S. Secret Service officials say they are breaking federal law.'
'The tracts are sold by California ministry co-founded by Kirk Cameron, an actor on the television series “Growing Pains.” According to the ministry’s Web site, the tracts sell for $5 for a pack of 100.
Lowery said the tracts violate a federal law that says reproductions of currency must not be two-sided and cannot be the same size as the real thing.
Kreins, who said he handed out 40 or 50 of the bills Thursday at a Waco hospital, said they are a handy way for him to instigate a conversation to expose others to his faith.
“They are commonly known as icebreakers,” Kreins said. “There have been many different kinds out there, but people are more likely to pick one of these up than one with the flames of hell coming off the front cover.”'

OT: Sister describes terror raid as 'barbaric'
The sister of a man shot in the shoulder by police during an anti-terrorist raid in east London described the actions today as "barbaric and horrific".
In the family's first public comment on last Friday's raid, Humeya Kalam released a statement to mosques in Forest Gate ahead of protests organised by a controversial Islamist group following Friday prayers.
"On the morning of Friday June 2, myself and my family were awakened by what can only be described as barbaric and horrific actions taken against an innocent family," Ms Kalam said in a statement.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one in the community for their tremendous support and insha'allah that will continue."

OT: 30,000 England fans converge on Frankfurt
More than 30,000 English football fans have descended on Frankfurt for England's opening match against Paraguay, helping to create a noisy but carnival atmosphere in the German city.
About 20,000 England fans are expected to be inside the Waldstadion for the game tomorrow, and a further 10,000 are expected to watch the match on a huge, double-sided screen, anchored on stilts in the middle of the river Main.
As planes at Frankfurt's two airports and trains at the main railway station disgorged more and more England supporters, German and British police praised their behaviour.
"We have had a very peaceful day and a very peaceful night. There have been no arrests of England supporters in Frankfurt or anywhere else," said Stephen Thomas, the man in charge of the British policing operation in Germany.
watertiger: so THAT'S what Murray Waas looks like. I thought he was older.
He obviously needs to grow up.

Did I just hear that some General said
they can't be sure whether Zarqawi
was shot before he died?
Did I hallucinate that?
Zarqawi 'alive when found'
· US most-wanted 'died on stretcher'
· More 'martyrs' to come, says Mullah Omar
· Fears of retaliatory attacks
The al-Qaida leader in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, survived Wednesday's initial air attack and died in the presence of American troops, US forces said today.
Major General William Caldwell told a news conference in Baghdad that the Jordanian-born terrorist mastermind was the only person in the house to survive the bombing and was alive when authorities arrived at the scene.
He said Zarqawi died as US forces "went into the process of providing medical care" and insisted he was not killed by Iraqi or coalition forces on the ground.
"Zarqawi did survive the air strike. The first people on the scene [Iraqi security forces] found him and put him in a stretcher," Gen Caldwell said. "Then US forces arrived on site. They began the process of identification and had some facial recognition."
Did I hallucinate that?

Not sure was the general pink and have an elephants trunk?
Did you notice there are no penetrating wounds on Zarqawi's head?
Someone earlier mentioned that the concussion from the explosion killed the fool. Makes sense.
Of course, I am cynical to the point that I would not put it past them to keep Al Zawhatever on ice so's they could produce him when needed.
Mauray Waas - there is no reporter for any major newspaper working on this story at least twice a week.
He kept watching for the big newspapers to go after the public record - but they didn't.
Some of the newspapers seem to act like they hope the staory will go away (because of their embarassment of being involved in the story)
I Wonder how George Bush feels about this?
France and the UK are to set up a joint nuclear energy forum, French President Jacques Chirac has announced at a summit with Tony Blair in Paris.
The two countries will share expertise - bringing together ministers, businesses and industry experts.
Also on the agenda was a common defence policy, European enlargement and Iran.
Mr Chirac said he was delighted to report a sense of solidarity and agreement. The upbeat mood contrasted with the summit atmosphere a year ago.
so THAT'S what Murray Waas looks like. I thought he was older.

The struggle against the rigged system in place here reminds me that even the most rigged system once in a while produces unexpected results. It just requires a lot more pressure to make the results you want to see happen.
That and watching the Kansas Republican Assembly (the Freeper wing of the state Party) and the state Club for Growth cause the middle to repudiate them is heartening.
Hell the Alabama Republicans even repudiated ten commandments Moore. Which I consider a move in the direction away from the abyss.

The thing that gets me about Zarqawi is the lack of dust. There was a photo of him before he was cleaned up, when he still had blood on his cheek and nose - but no dust in his hair or face.

Just a very important point missed by the Lying Rick thread that I must bring up here--
It's not accurate to say that "most" parents send their kids to public schools. Rather, 90% of all children at any given time are in public, rather than private, schools.
I don't think this point is made anywhere near often enough. The creeps who slam public education are, essentially, saying that 90% of all children's parents are negligent/strange/weird.

Presuming you don't run into him in a drunken stupor and cause an international incident.
Jürgen Klinsmann is known as the diver because when he was playing for Germany would often dive, which would look like a foul and therefore his team would be awarded a penalty.

Muslims protest over terror raid
Around 100 people have protested about an anti-terror raid in east London a week ago, claiming it was symptomatic of oppression of the Islamic community.
Earlier the sister of two brothers held in connection with an alleged terror plot criticised the police's "barbaric and horrific actions".
Humeya Kalam's brothers, Mohammed Abdul Kahar, 23, and Abul Koyair, 20, were arrested in Forest Gate last week.
Ms Kalam backed a separate "peaceful" protest in Plashet Park next Sunday.
At Friday's demonstration outside Forest Gate police station protesters chanted: "British police go to hell" and "Tony Blair murderer" and waved plaques condemning the police and the government.
Yes Virginia, there is a vast right wing conspiracy:
A little-known organization closely tied to the Republican Party and the Bush administration and often accused of promoting partisan policies and ideology abroad is now heavily involved in efforts to establish democratic institutions in Afghanistan and Iraq, RAW STORY has learned.
The International Republican Institute, though billing itself as an independent nonprofit unaffiliated with the Republican Party, acts essentially as a wing of the GOP. Its is chaired by party presidential frontrunner Senator John McCain (R-AZ), and Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE) and Representatives David Dreier (R-CA) and Jim Kolbe (R-AR) serve on its board of directors. Many of IRI’s high-ranking staff members have at some point worked directly for the Bush administration.

Katherine loses another one
The chief of staff for U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris announced his resignation Thursday, becoming the latest in a long list of staffers to leave the Longboat Key Republican.
Asbell was her fourth chief of staff, coming to the job less than a year ago.
She doesn't look happy, either
Consider the source: That would be Ricky Santorum who had all of his children "touch" their stillborn baby brother in some bizarre private ceremony.
That's fucked up.

From the Krugman article:
On one side, a measure that would have increased scrutiny of containers entering U.S. ports, at a cost of $648 million, has been dropped from a national security package being negotiated in Congress.
Again?! Fuckers.
Here are the basic facts On the issue that CIA led us to war -(nuclear weapons) the CIA said that was all crap.
There was no damage done - she would have been undercover, and the undercover company was exposed.
There was damage assessment - no report out yet - waiting for results Libby investigation. there was damage done.
He called it -"nothing short of treason"

Because: (1) They don't have phones at Camp David and (2) In DC Bush just answers his own phone so he has to keep stopping to talk to everyone who calls the WH switchboard and says, "I'd like to speak w/ the president, please."
Give me a fucking break.
Palestinians killed on Gaza beach
Seven people, including three children, have been killed by Israeli shells which hit a beach in the northern Gaza Strip, Palestinian officials say.
At least 30 people were wounded in the shelling, they say.
The Israeli military says it has halted all shelling of Gaza and has launched an inquiry into whether ground-based artillery could have been involved.
Four other people were also killed in separate Israeli air strike in northern Gaza on Friday, Palestinians said.
It's news to me, but welcome. What should I have them do?

Global refugees 'at 26-year low'
The number of refugees worldwide has reached a 26-year low, says the UN refugee agency, the UNHCR.
More than six million refugees - people who cross international borders to flee persecution or violence - have returned home since 2002, the UNHCR said.
In contrast, the number of people living in refugee-like conditions within their own countries has grown.
As a result, the UNHCR's annual global count of uprooted people rose to nearly 21 million in 2005.
This compares with 19.5 million in 2004.

Ricky looks like he's inbred.
And then there's the story about his missus.
How she once lived with the doctor who delivered her....forty years her senior who performed abortions.
What was Ricky Retardo - her penance?
OMG, ESPN is carrying the 2006 World Cup. See you in a few weeks.
Some of the matches are going to be on ABC, such as Ing-ER-Land vs Paraguay tomorrow. All the matches will have HD coverage as well.

...oh, sorry, was watching the World Cup.
"Did you notice there are no penetrating wounds on Zarqawi's head? Not even a beebee size piece of shrapnal wound. Very strange when compared to other bodies from a similar sort of attack."
All of this can be answered or explained rationally. For starters he could have been in a position where his head did not recieve the bulk of the contact with projectiles resulting from the explosion. He could have been in a part of the room that had more solid construction. There could have been obstacles in the way or even people who could have taken the bulk of the impact. He was an important figure. He probably kept bodyguards near him in close proximity at all times. The location of the explosive, where it entered and where it detonated, was it a clean burn? Some bombs and missiles do not detonate cleanly because of the time it takes from the moment of detonation where the chemical reaction spreads throughout the explosive material before the kinetic energy does. Sometimes the kinetic energy spreads faster than the chemical reaction thus the ends of the explosive material are blown away before the reaction can detonate all of it.
Thus the bomb may have been advertised on the news as having a certain yield but that yield may not have been fully realized in the explosion.
All of these and more could easily explain the random nature of the event in question since who really knows what was going on.

Idiot. Has Bush ever spent a weekend at the WH working. Someone tell Bush there is a war on and that terrorist number one is still free and plotting to kill Americans five years after 9/11/01.
FDR worked so hard during WWII that it killed him. Bush only breaks a sweat when he bikerides. Bush will go down in history as the worst President ever so move over Buchanan here comes Georgie.

Billy B, you hadn't heard that story? I guess what they wanted to do was their own business, but when they went public with it in an effort to further their own agenda, they opened themselves up to the totally justified criticism.
They used their own baby, just as they did when they had the 13 year-old sign the letter asking for campaign donations.
Creepy people.

Her writing letters to the fetus....brrrrr!
Her doctors told her in the beginning that the child would not live.
Noooo, she'd rather risk leaving her other kids without a mother for her stupid religious beliefs...the beliefs of a church that hates women!
She and her goofy husband SO deserve one another.
Their kids, I feel sorry for.
I would imagine that forcing his children to view and touch a dead fetus did a number on them psychologically.
In all fairness to Santorum, that was Plan B.
It isn't the Santorums' fault that the the bronzing company turned them down.
The company was also cool to the idea that whichever Santorum parent died first would have their hands removed and bronzed to make a personalized Praying Hands sculpture.
All of these and more could easily explain the random nature of the event in question since who really knows what was going on.
