"Just wait"
So how much of a free pass will this incredible faux pas (or clear evidence of being delusional) receive from our ever obliging broadcast media?
he's a little bit insane, and people have probably just stopped bothering to brief him on anything important. they probably get tired of being told "ok, you've covered your ass, now".
Fucking Frightening!
They want good news from Iraq, but bad news from Israel
MR. HADLEY: Further in was not -- let's look at what we said. One was, loss of innocent civilian life. And one of the things that people have not reported is how much innocent civilian life is being lost in Israel.
There are only two possibilities:
1. Bush is, literally, certifiably insane and is suffering from the delusion that he has created a functioning Jeffersonian democracy in Iraq.
2. Bush is a pathological liar who will say anything, regardless of how starkly, demonstrably false it is.
It is impossible for me to say which would be worse.
OT: (Blogwhore--SOSIOUXME awreddy!!!)
Operation Iraqi Liberation
what bush meant--in iraq, they now have the freedom to kill people from other religions.
Hadley said this just as news was coming in that Israel had attacked a civilian convoy
But what they [Israel] said is, and I think you've seen some evidence, an effort to minimize the risk to innocent civilian life.
And on Washington Week last night, I heard that the Democratic Party is terribly split over what to do about Iraq.
Some fellow named Lieberman apparently supports the Preznit...so it seems the Democrats are terribly, terribly divided.
To that, Putin replied, "We certainly would not want to have the same kind of democracy that they have in Iraq, quite honestly."
That Putin is a pretty sharp fellow. But I have changed my mind; I would prefer it if the Shrubbery would stick to talking about what is for supper.
There are some very strange goings on going on in the Republican Party. Specifically, Bush and Kat Harris are really close to mental collapse.

Repost from dead thread. Atrios is ripping me off pre-emptively again. Wanker.
Good afternoon. I have slept late today, and as I'm trying to wake up, the first thing I read is that our President actually told the Russian head of state that Iraq was a model of democracy.
Ya know, I expect them to say that sort of thing to the gaggle, or to Brit Hume with a straight face, but you don't go trying that jackassery with people that actually matter. Does it occur to him that he just makes himself (and by extension, us) look like delusional lying asshats when he pulls stunts like that?
I'm glad Putin had the sense to laugh in his face when he said it. I can't imagine how furious the littlest king must have been about that.
The Guardian's reporting makes it clear that Chimpy knew very well he got punked by Pootie.
Bush's face reddened as he tried to laugh off the remark. ``Just wait,'' Bush replied about Iraq.

DWD! guess what book i received yesterday!
And one plausible theory for this is that Chimpy made some appeal to Pootie-Poot as a Christian in terms of Middle East policy
Q Can I ask, what did you take President Putin to mean when he said that they wouldn't participate in any crusades or any holy alliances? What was that a reference to?
MR. HADLEY: You know, I asked myself the same question. (Laughter.)
Q Did you get an answer? (Laughter.)
MR. HADLEY: I'm still taking it under advisement. (Laughter.) I'm going to let myself know what I think a little bit later.
Future generations will wonder contemptuously why there was no revolt.

WGG,
Someone here was trying to argue with me a while back on the fact that the original "acronym" for this war was NOT OIL (Operation Iraqi Liberation).
OIL - source wikipedia
OIL source, Senator Jim Bunning

UncommonSense
George W Bush is simply a dim witted Richie-Rich man-boy. As hard as his handlers try to make him seem a 'steadfast leader', moments like these uncloak the real truth.
It's quite miraculous that his handler's are able to do as well as they do.
His comments literally made me cry. I'm still overwhelmed with grief.

See, according to Jim Lehrer and a bunch of ombudspersons from major Amerkian infotainment papers, it isn't the journalist's job to report on subjective matters such as whether the Unitard™'s face reddened.
All that stuff is opinion, or analysis, or something insufficiently truthy. Who can objectively say that his face turned red? Maybe the lighting changed because a bird flew past the window, or a passing cloud blocked the sun.
Amerikan journalists must stick to reporting the facts.
Bush continues to be the greatest Special Education President we've ever had.

... The law offices of Hamid Rifai in Clifton, NJ, filed a notice of claim against President George W Bush for a $30 million wrongful death action on behalf of Dima Tahboub, the widow of slain journalist Tareq Ayyoub. The lawsuit names President Bush "in his capacity as president of the United States and commander in chief of the armed forces." ...
...on 12 July, Rifai filed notice of wrongful death claim on behalf of Tahboub, 38, and claims that Ayyoub was intentionally killed 8 April 2003 when the United States bombed the Baghdad offices of the Al Jazeera news network. Tahboub resides in Manchester, UK, and is steadfast in thought that the United States intentionally caused the death of her husband when it was revealed in November 2005 that President Bush had told Prime Minister Tony Blair it was a strategic move to bomb Al Jazeera.
The case is unlikely to gain much traction, because in October 2001 President Bush signed executive orders absolving him personally of any liabilities in the name of fighting terrorism, which included future activities or any (current or future) international war tribunal. However that does not worry Rifai, who contends that if President Bush does not respond to the notice of claim that they will file a full lawsuit to which entitles the case to the discovery and investigative processes protected by law.
You're welcome, plantsman!
Can you see the anti-Semitism? Destroy an airport with planes right on the runway, some of them carrying American citizens, and bomb civilian infrastructure while totally ignoring the terror camps in the south that might be argued to be legitimate targets, and these unhinged Arabs call Israel an "enemy."
After incidents like this, how can anyone look to this man for anything. It stupifies. I can't believe this is where we've come to.
i doubt he kicks Barney. he probably kicks one of his aides, choosing the last one to tell him something he didn't want to hear.

the only thing Bush has done that I approve of is the time he turned to Karl Rove in a meeting and told him to go walk Barney.
I just have to say holy fuck. You don't stand in Russia next to Putin and threaten the country. That "just wait" line may be ignored by the weenie press in this country, but it will no doubt have strong diplomatic ramifications.
I won't be surprised if Putin decides to oppose the US at every opportunity from now on. That was an unbelievable personal insult, not to mention how touchy Russians are about being perceived as a super power. Treating them like a colony will not sit well.

US Plans Air Bridge Out of Lebanon
Pentagon and U.S. State Department officials are working on contingency plans to get about 25,000 people out of Lebanon to escape Israel's military campaign, launched after two Israeli soldiers were kidnapped by Hezbollah guerrillas.
An "air bridge" is the term for planes that would move in swiftly and ferry people out in quick succession.
You know they know the seriousness of the situation...Bush is just holding back because he wants his war with Iran, and the Israel Lebanon War is the key to it.
And notice how pissed off Putin looks. He doesn't have to say the word "cowardly douchebag."

1. Bolton tells U.N. that Syria and Iran are directly responsable Hamas and Hizbollah.
2.Hizbollah flys drone into Israeli ship.
3.U.S. Navy ships move into Lebanese waters to pick up U.S. citizens due to bombardment of Lebanese roads and airports.
4. Gulf of Tonkin II?
Israel is leaflet dropping on civilians warning them to get out. Except Israel has pretty much locked them in--bombed out the airport, shot up the main highway and bridges and blockaded the port.

good question Monica!
Israel has given Syria 72 hours to stop Hezbollah or Syria gets it next:
You know, we're not supposed to advocate the destruction of what the Israeli state has become because that's supposedly the same thing as advocating another holocaust (Zionists trying to hide their crimes behind non-Zionist Jews again), but can anyone doubt now that the Israeli policy of terrorism-inpsiring disproportionate punishment is the most dangerous thing in the world right now, and that it would be worth reconstruction in Tel Aviv to stop it? They are a nation of the most dangerous thing in the world, armed cowards seeking to demonstrate again and again how tough they are with brutality that is the opposite of anything that could make them safer.

Ok, perspective on the Bush/Putin exchange:
I don't think the Russians would have interpreted the "Just wait" as a threat. I think they would have interpreted it as "just wait, Iraq will come out great, we're turning the corner, blah blah blah..."
The real slap in the face was the premeditated and utterly artless insult Bush served up at the first of the exchange, when he suggested to Putin that what Russia has created for itself democracy-wise was inferior to the massive clusterfuck Bush has created for Iraq democracy-wise.
I mean, WTF? Putin's a smart guy, as are you, my fellow Eschatonians...put yourself in his shoes, having been on the receiving end of a pretty egregious, publicly-delivered insult from a guy you know to be a complete idiot. Regardless of the geopolitical repercussions, would you:
a) Resist the temptation to reply in kind or
b) Deliver a righteous bitchslap of truth and show obvious pleasure whilst doing so?
The "just wait" response was what one would expect from an idiot used to braying his ignorance to a compliant audience who would never dare to correct - it reflects how badly it throws Bush to have anyone publicly disagree with him, and how particularly unable he is to parry an opposing opinion delivered with wit. He panicked and his bumbling mind, never adept at finding words, settled on the ambiguous "just wait" as a defensive parry. But not, I think, as a threat.

My initial take was Bush said "just wait" in reference to Russia's democracy. Seeing the video, however, I do think he was defensively trying to justify the Iraq failure.
So maybe not a threat so much, but definitely an insult. Putin will find it easy to work against the US on Iran or anything else. Bush is working real hard to restart the Cold War, isn't he?

In my case, the people I know who voted for Bush either had a lot of money, or else they hated liberals and liberalism more than they actually liked Bush. (So basically they voted for Bush out of spite.)

The Saar-5 ship that was attacked was actually hit with an Iranian/Chinese cruise missile. They have lots of these and hopefully they'll arm them with chemical and biological weapons to take care of the zionists once and for all.
In the mean time I'd like to thank all of the lefists in the west for their unfaltering support in eradicating the zionist germ all these years. Soon we will be able to share in the bounty of their ending.

No doubt exercise helps clear his brain, but if it were any clearer, it'd be a patch of blue sky. He needs to unclear his brain, and let a little reality intrude, and wipe that barbecue grin off his face.

Bush wants there to be a World War III, and he wants to be the leader of the “Christian Army”.
There is no other way to interpret what is going on.
Since the beginning of his Presidential aspirations, Bush has proclaimed that God has chosen him specifically to lead the world, because he will do great things. Bush has also stated that he likes to talk in code words, especially to the evangelicals in his support base.
Yesterday, when asked a very intelligent and detailed question about the ramifications about the multifront war erupting in the Middle East, Bush replied “I thought you were going to ask me about the pig”. Bush mentioned “pig” as many times as he possibly could during the press conference, which was dominated by the violent events of the Middle East. It’s obvious why Bush kept mentioning a pig during this press conference, as attested by the way that the right wing extremists are rejoicing at Bush’s use of the word.
It’s another Bush code word for “Slaughter them Muslims”.
Bush is an “End Timer”.
He’s deluded himself into believing that he’s God’s man, chosen to lead the Christian Army against all Evil.
He wants to be the man who brings on the Rapture. This is why instead of trying to defuse the Middle East powder keg, Bush has always chosen to throw gasoline at it instead.
He’s sick, twisted and brain damaged from all of the cocaine and whiskey.
It’s time for someone to bring up the 25th Amendment.

It's contagious. The MSNBC fembot was going on about Lebanon attacking Israel quite a bit, till her producers obviously reminded her it was Hezbollah in her ear. Sheesh.
If you believe in God, or some version of God, which Bush does, and he becomes elected President, even if it's with the help of Rove, Diebold and the SCOTUS, he would naturally assume they're all doing God's work.
And since he was able to stumble into office (God's work also) in his mind, it's perfectly logical and consistent that he's God's agent on Earth.. and everything he does or says is not only correct, it is, in fact, the Will of God.
Of course this makes Karl Rove an Angel, in this scenario.

The Syrian-backed Hezbollah and the armed wing of the Palestinian group Hamas were working to stop progress on a two-state solution in the Middle East allowing Israel to live side-by-side with an independent Palestinian state, said Bush.
'Terrorist elements are acting to stop the advance of democracy,' he underlined.
More disgusting Dem compliance with GOP whining:
Once again, the Republicans don't mind doing evil, but suddenly become delicate little flowers when it comes to discussing evil. And the Dems do what Dems do. Comply:
Democrats pulled an Internet ad that showed flag-draped coffins Friday after Republicans and at least two Democrats demanded it be taken down on grounds the image was insensitive and not fit for a political commercial.
The ad by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee called for a "new direction" and displayed a staccato of images, including war scenes, pollution and breached levees as well as a photograph of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay doctored to look like a police mug shot.

Hey friends. Only have a brief moment of net access, but I saw Atrios' post on teen driving, and thought I'd mention something he may be interested in. Since we have moved to Chapel Hill/ Carrboro (we signed our lease and will finally be in our own place again August 1, I'm so excited I can't stand it) one of the things I love the most is the free bus system, which takes a ton of the pressure of us as parents to either: a) transport the teens everywhere, or b) let them drive more than I'd feel comfortable with. Definitely one solution to the teen driving fatality problem is better public transportation.
They love it b/c they have freedom, and we love it b/c it's way more safe.

No respite in Middle East showdown
Israeli gunships have attacked central Beirut for the first time in Israel's four-day-old assault on Lebanon as the civilian death toll neared 100.
The renewed fighting prompted the Lebanese prime minister, Fouad Siniora, to repeat calls for a ceasefire on Saturday, saying
Israeli attacks had turned Lebanon into a disaster area in need of international aid.
"We call for an immediate ceasefire backed by the United Nations," Siniora told a news conference in Beirut. "I declare today that Lebanon is a disaster zone in need of a comprehensive and speedy Arab plan ... and [it] pleads to its friends in the world to rush to its aid."
There's a flaw in this argument, somewhere...

It's like how everyone thought that Bush would kick ass in the foreign policy part of the debates and flounder in the domestic stuff.

Exactly.
Reagan was a pussy, and it's been downhill ever since.
Who can argue with that logic?
Why I love the Rude Pundit.
OK, I read all the stuff that says the "Ken Lay Lives!" people are dumb tinfoil-hat conspiracy theorists.
So, my question is this. Why has no one actually addressed the facts? Where's the evidence that Lay is really dead? A Colorado medical examiner says a guy is dead, and I'm sure he's right. However, there is no guarantee that the dead guy was Lay. Moreover, Colorado is a big RED state and there is no reason NOT to suspect the medical examiner.
My point, and I do have one, is that it seems terribly convenient for Lay to have "died" right about now. And for Colin Powell to have shown up in the same hospital the next day. And for the government to no longer be able to get the piddly $43 million that Lay was to forfeit. And for Lay to no longer have to testify in a plea deal to keep out of the major ass-pumping prisons.
Yeah, I think he's probably dead, but I also think THAT'S entirely too convenient. Funny thing about Bush, lots of people seem to turn up conveniently dead for some reason.

And now, our report on the Middle East Peace Process:
I see Israel has begun killing civilians again. Thirty four reported today.
Bush is yelling at Syria to stop Hezbolloh while refusing to say shit to Israel as they continue to attack Lebanon, after attacking Syria, after shelling the beach.
Got to hand it to these guys. If there is a way to create a general war in the M.E., I believe this is the crew that can do it.
Of course, the US and the rest of the world will suffer, not to mention all the innocents within the region.

Britain sends warships to Middle East
Britain will be sending two ships to the Middle East as part of contingency plans to protect its interests as Israel's land, sea and air offensive against Lebanon continues, officials said Saturday.
A ministry of defence spokeswoman said the aircraft carrier Illustrious and the warship Bulwark would shortly be sent to the Middle East, but she would not comment on news reports that they would be used to evacuate Britons from the area.
"As you would expect we are monitoring the situation closely and are engaging in prudent contingency planning," said the spokeswoman, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with government policy.

Well, it's not as if the US of A ever declared war against Iraq, either. So we're not in much of a position to complain. Which is one of the problems with starting preemptive wars and quite a few of us pointed that out when Bush decided he wanted to attack Iraq.

On another topic, this is rather odd, I think:
Roads and bridges built by U.S. taxpayers are starting to be sold off, and so far foreign-owned companies are doing the buying.
On a single day in June, an Australian-Spanish partnership paid $3.8 billion to lease the Indiana Toll Road. An Australian company bought a 99-year lease on Virginia's Pocahontas Parkway, and Texas officials decided to let a Spanish-American partnership build and run a toll road from Austin to Seguin for 50 years.
Few people know that the tolls from the U.S. side of the tunnel between Detroit and Windsor, Canada, go to a subsidiary of an Australian company — which also owns a bridge in Alabama.

Israel kills 34 civilians in strikes
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/
20060...HNlYwMlJVRPUCUl
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Israel killed at least 34 civilians on Saturday, including 15 children, in air strikes meant to punish Lebanon for letting Hizbollah guerrillas menace the Jewish state's northern border.
Israel's bombing of Lebanese roads, bridges, ports and airports, as well as Hizbollah targets, is its most destructive onslaught since a 1982 invasion to expel Palestinian forces.
For the first time, ports in Christian areas were bombarded and a helicopter missile hit a lighthouse on Beirut's seafront.
Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora demanded an immediate U.N.-backed ceasefire, denouncing Israel for turning his country into a "disaster zone." He appealed for foreign aid.
An Israeli missile incinerated a van in southern Lebanon, killing 20 people, among them 15 children, in the deadliest single attack of the campaign launched by Israel after Hizbollah captured two of its soldiers and killed eight on Wednesday.
cause they don't like people seeing what they are doing.
As the Faux news crew found out.
Of course, the US managed to off a few journalists who got too close to some bad stuff in Iraq.

The best book I've ever seen on lebanon in the 80's is this one:
Inshallah by Oriana Fallaci
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product...glance&
n=283155
quick review
From Publishers Weekly
Civil war-torn Beirut is the setting for Fallaci's ( A Man ) latest work, a powerful, labyrinthine study of human character in apocalyptic circumstances. The novel takes place in the fall of 1983, when a barracks bombing killed dozens of U.S. Marines. At the headquarters of the Italian peacekeeping contingent, a rich cast of characters confronts the unpredictable brutality of religious conflict. The unit's general, called Condor; Charlie, a self-styled counterespionage agent; Pistoira, a swaggering killer; Sugar, the bookish munitions expert, and other uniformed misfits struggle to survive an impossible mission. Rendering the complex antagonisms of contemporary Beirut, Fallaci shows a talent for incisively capturing classic human foibles, as one beleaguered soldier after another tries to negotiate the cultural borders of a chaotic city. In the novel's climactic scenes, the Italian troops, like the well-meaning armies of other nations, are obliged to withdraw before an inferno of religious fanaticism. In prose dense with details and asides, Fallaci starkly conveys Beirut's nihilistic atmosphere; her depiction of the futility of combat is acerbic, and her narrative fully reflects the ironies that emerge when men behave like beasts.

Wow! Israel does fight the way we do: 7 journalists injured in the first 48 hours of Israel's assault on Lebanon--and not just the Hizballah controlled station--they also attacked reporters covering bombing activity.
The three New TV workers; reporter Bassel Al-Aridi, cameraman Abd Khayyat and assistant cameraman Ziad Sarwan; were injured when their vehicle was hit by shots fired from an Israeli helicopter as they crossed a bridge in the south of the country, where they had gone to cover the fighting. The attack took place while Israel was bombing bridges and other communications infrastructure.
New TV said despite being in a specifically demarcated as press the New TV vehicle sustained more damage than any other, "which suggests to us that it was a targeted attack against our vehicle."

What I've heard is that the further along that project went, the more cost over-runs happened and the shoddier the work became.
Oh, it means chechnya...

Yes. Heat destroys vitamin c, for one thing.

By Monday, if Syria doesn't get Hezbollah to stop, Damascus will be destroyed. Iran's next.
Oooooh - Broccoli & Roquefort Salad from the Duck.
so why is it that apparently Bechtel
Because doing business this way apparently makes you king of America.
is there a difference in the nutritional value of raw vs cooked vegetables?
Actually there is quite a bit of difference in taste, texture, nature of the fiber, and vitamin content between cooked and raw.
(eating both is best)

Cook your carotenoids
Heat is good for some vegetables such as carrots and tomatoes, which contain substances called carotenoids. Carotenoids, including beta carotene, lycopene and lutein, are plant compounds that help reduce the risk of disease by acting as antioxidants in the body. Heat and processing (for example, making tomatoes into sauce, paste or juice) change carotenoids into a form that's easier for the body to absorb.

In my opinion, the latter are almost always distasteful.

you have the Czech Republic and Sloveina.
Israel has backed itself into a corner.
none of their policies are working
they are just blundering around in the Lebanon and in the Gaza Strip.
From your link:
The scale of the operation may also be an attempt by Mr Olmert and his defence minister, Amir Peretz, to establish military credibility in the eyes of the Palestinians and other states in the region: neither man has a long track record of military experience, and neither has been in power for more than a few months.
"I believe the current [Israeli] government will see this through, not because they are strong but because they are weak," said Israel Harel, a settler leader. "Neither the prime minister nor the defence minister has a security background, and the army has made tactical mistakes. Therefore, they all have to prove that they can do what previous governments, who were led by stronger personalities such as Ariel Sharon and Ehud Barak, can do ... on the surface this is all about freeing captured soldiers. But underneath it is about the prime minister ensuring that he can carry out the next phase of disengagement."
The blind leading the lame. This is what happens when unqualified people are chosen to run the country. Everyone pays the price.

Well, if by "blundering around" you mean using American military gadgets to kill people and destroy their property, then, yes, we agree.
