I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
First! Ha!
Second.
At least 25 bodies were found in different parts of Baghdad over the last 24 hours, police said. The bodies bore signs of torture and had gunshot wounds.
That happens all the time in any random big city in the US.
Sigh. Just like any city in America, right?
Damn!
So what are we on about now??

It looks like I owe Moe a coke.
In Bushboy's surrealistic world what is "acceptable" is blind obedience to him and his delusions of grandeur.
The man is certifiably stupid if not insane and should really spend the rest of his days in an asylum, reading, "My Pet Goat," or some other child reading material that he can just barely comprehend.
It's the president's job to call things unacceptable.
Blair devastated as Army chief savages his approach to Iraq
The authority of Tony Blair was left battered last night as he attempted to play down a rift with the head of the British Army over his unprecedented warning that the presence of foreign troops was "exacerbating" the security situation in Iraq
The devastating assessment by General Sir Richard Dannatt, the chief of the general staff, infuriated ministers and caused alarm in Washington.
However there was widespread backing across the Army yesterday as soldiers of every rank praised General Dannatt for standing up to the Government.
Still think we shoudn't torture? Here's proof that we need to. The enemy does. We need to be able to fight without restraint, to win, to acheive victory. The liberals with their handwringing are holding us back.
Meanwhile, this interesting tidbit of information on Predatorgate™ :
WASHINGTON — The Human Rights Campaign today released a new nationwide poll that shows the aggressively coordinated attempts by anti-gay right-wing leaders and anti-gay groups to brand the Mark Foley scandal as a gay issue are a resounding failure.
The new, nationwide poll shows that, by a 2-to-1 margin, voters believe that “this type of behavior is typical of politicians” over “this type of behavior is typical of gay men.” The poll also showed support for either civil unions or marriage for same-sex couples...
Couple that with the U.S. Attorney in Az. now investigating Jim Kolbe as another "page fondler", and I'd say we've got a perfect storm...of corruption, not gayness.
Oh, sure! Run off and leave me with my cat, and my biscuits and gravy lust downstairs, willya?

How do you both wring hands and use hands to hold back?
Maybe Bush should send Iraq a "Thinking of You While You Tolerate Incomprehensible Violence" card this weekend. It should get there by Wednesday if the mailman isn't decapitated.
Still think we need freedom, and the rights guaranteed us in the Constitution? Here's proof that we don't. The enemy doesn't. We need to be like our enemies to win, because America isn't about rights and freedom -- it's about winning and being scared.

Gary, how do you know those people weren't tortured and killed by US-sponsored death squads?

Schools to teach kids the arithemetic of war.
Nazis sent people to death ovens. Means we should too, in winger logic. Luckily, our constitution and the geneva conventions were written by responsible adults.
[nothin' says lovin' like somethin' from the oven.]
Gotta run out for awhile.
quelli, gli americani, son' pazzi!
I prefer the moral high ground to the sewers of Sadr City. No torture. Just because the enemy does it is no reason to emulate them.
Oh, sure! Run off and leave me with my cat, and my biscuits and gravy lust downstairs, willya?
Sorry man, I was busy............
More evidence of how we're "winning" in Iraq.
My God, when Jim Baker knows that we're fucked, who's left to support this fiasco?
DAVID BROOKS: Something will happen.
American taxpayers will erect a statue in Baghdad to the liberator of Iraq and there will be joyous celebrations with flowers and chocolate and gunfire..er
The networks will cover it 24/7. The American people will feel good about what's happening in Iraq and then go vote two days later.
And here I thought "Gary Ruppert" was some sorta weird joke about that 9-11 conspiracy guy. Must have the name wrong-- what is the name of that guy, used to be a cop, gives lectures and so forth?
Met Menezes trial set for next year
The trial of the Metropolitan Police, which faces health and safety allegations over the death of Jean Charles de Menezes, will not be heard until October next year - more than two years after he was shot dead at Stockwell Underground station.
Mr de Menezes, 27, a Brazilian electrician, was shot by anti-terrorist officers who mistakenly feared he was a suicide bomber.
The Metropolitan Police are being prosecuted under health and safety laws over alleged "operational errors" in planning and communication which fell short of criminal offences.
The force is due to apply for the charges against it to be dismissed at a pre-trial hearing early next year.
Blair has surely earned his fate.
O by all means, let's become exactly like every one of the countries we've ever condemned or fought. Let's just let civilization go and become barbarians, everywhere.
Then we can all fight each other until everyone is dead.
Problem solved.
No more America - we'll just be Baghdad West.
who's left to support this fiasco?

Hey Moe
Jane Aaraff is looking for you
Some readers and viewers think we journalists are exaggerating about the situation in Iraq. I can almost understand that because who would want to believe that things are this bad? Particularly when so many people here started out with such good intentions.
I'm more puzzled by comments that the violence isn't any worse than any American city. Really? In which American city do 60 bullet-riddled bodies turn up on a given day? In which city do the headless bodies of ordinary citizens turn up every single day? In which city would it not be news if neighborhood school children were blown up? In which neighborhood would you look the other way if gunmen came into restaurants and shot dead the customers?
Almost unimaginable
Day-to-day life here for Iraqis is so far removed from the comfortable existence we live in the United States that it is almost literally unimaginable.
It's almost impossible to describe what it feels like being stalled in traffic, your heart pounding, wondering if the vehicle in front of you is one of the three or four car bombs that will go off that day. Or seeing your husband show up at the door covered in blood after he was kidnapped and beaten.
I don't know a single family here that hasn't had a relative, neighbor or friend die violently. In places where there's been all-out fighting going on, I've interviewed parents who buried their dead child in the yard because it was too dangerous to go to the morgue.
Imagine the worst day you've ever had in your life, add a regular dose of terror and you'll begin to get an idea of what it's like every day for a lot of people here.
Positive story we’d love to tell
So I'm particularly intrigued by a comment by an American - I'm assuming he's American - who is actually in Baghdad and believes we're exaggerating.
"I am in Baghdad teaching the Iraqis and I have to let you know some realities the press doesn't tell you," wrote Bob in a comment to the Baghdad blog. He tells us those things are the schools or hospitals the U.S. military has built and that things are a lot better than the press says they are. I would really like to find Bob. I would be grateful if Bob would get in touch with us.
Still think we need freedom, and the rights guaranteed us in the Constitution? Here's proof that we don't. The enemy doesn't. We need to be like our enemies to win, because America isn't about rights and freedom -- it's about winning and being scared.

I really think that if Ruppert wants to torture people - and apparently he does - that he move to Kazakhstan and apply for a job as a torturer.
Ruppert is no American.
Fuhrman.

Is she hot?
Downy Owls!!!

No, no not Fuhrman. Some guy who says 9-11 was an inside job. Thought it was Ruppert.
Imagine the worst day you've ever had in your life, add a regular dose of terror and you'll begin to get an idea of what it's like every day for a lot of people here.
or as i like to say: Add a sniper...
that's really all you'd need. imagine walking through your town knowing in the back of your mind there were snipers lurking at any turn...you never hear the shot that kills you...

Today is Gary's birthday!!!
What does skin color = MED mean?
The racist asshole from the O.J. Simpson trial, y'mean?
No, the "From the Wilderness" guy - Michael C. Ruppert.
Ruppert is no American.
Tena
Just a quick drop-in to chime in w/Tina:
Ruppert's just another anti-American right-wing extremist fanatic.
No different from bin Laden's suicide bombers in philosophy - he just doesn't have their nerve.
Thanks, Dave, that's it.

unless he's changed his stripes considerably, mike ruppert is no 'right-wing, anti-american...'

Liberal approach pays off as use of cannabis drops to 10-year low
The popularity of cannabis has plummeted with 600,000 fewer people smoking or eating marijuana than three years ago.
The new figures for England and Wales contradict claims that the current, more liberal approach to the drug, introduced nearly three years ago, has resulted in rising cannabis use.
Figures released yesterday by the Home Office reveal that overall drug use in England and Wales has dropped, although the abuse of cocaine has risen. The consumption of other class A substances, such as heroin, has remained static. Possible explanations for the decrease include the growing awareness that cannabis can cause mental health problems, and that marijuana abuse is being replaced by binge drinking.
No, woody, just nuts.
Burh's "Bring 'em on" death taunt is up to...
2754....2759 American victims
'That happens all the time in any random big city in the US.'
