Now that the captured British sailors and marines have sold their stories, with the blessing of the MOD, the MOD has banned all personnel from selling stories.
Maj Gen Cordingley, commander of the Desert Rats during the 1991 Gulf War, said it was "unfortunate" that the MoD was "using" the Royal Navy personnel as "a propaganda tool".
The father of Lance Corporal Thomas Keys - a British military policeman killed in Iraq in 2003 - said he found it "offensive" that the MoD allowed the Royal Navy crew to speak out, but prevented his son's colleagues from talking.
Reg Keys said: "When my son died, his colleagues were not allowed to speak to their families about it, let alone the press.
"It seems to me that it is selective. If the story aids the government in their propaganda against the Iranians, they will allow people to speak, but if it is embarrassing to the government or the Ministry of Defence, you are not allowed to."
Shutting the door on an empty barn. This is one of the most cynical examples of propaganda I have ever witnessed.

Reminds me of Dylan in 1966 at the Sydney Press Conference where he brags that he "can sing the blues better than a 100 colored musicians" because "they all moved to the suburbs."

Imus is so full of it. He, or his Neo Nazi lacky Bernard, have been spewing this nasty stuff for years. My guess is he's been ordered by the suits to say anything he needs to, to save his miserable show.
I stopped listening a few years back, but before that I had been a listener for many years. Before he started taking himself seriously, he actually could be funny. Sad thing is, he was always a mean, petty bastard. A bully too. Has always used his show to intimidate critics and sell lots of crappy Imus swag. Hopefully, he'll be gone soon.

David Gregory,on the conventional wisdom express via 2002
GREGORY: But I think there's also a carryover of Bush's strength in the Bush years, which is management of foreign policy and management of the war on terror. And I think Democrats -- one of the reasons they do want to assert themselves on foreign policy is to persuade voters that "we can own this issue, and we can be trusted with it."

So I make myself some coffee and open my dead tree version of the NY Times this morning only to see a call for blogger ethics on the front page. How interesting. Another call for "managed civil speech" (which is claimed to be "freer" than unfettered free speech.) There was no word on who would be the managers of such speech, but I think we can count on those who call for it to be the ones who feel they are most qualified to define and enforce it. (Apparently, this will all be done "voluntarily" and will be dealt with through purges and link boycotts and the novel concept of moderated comment sections. Or something.)
Meanwhile, on the media page is a story about the execrable Don Imus and the fact that he routinely makes racist, misogynistic and eliminationist jokes on his show while half the Washington press corps spends time there kissing his ring. For some reason that kind of "incivility" doesn't upset the journalistic prima donnas half as much as the uncivil blogosphere does.
So what's up with this?

According to something I read this morning, Imus spends $26,000/child to keep them at his faux ranch for a few weeks a year. Many other charitable organization do much better. For instance, the charity maintains the ranch year round, and Imus and his family utilize it several times a year, but the kids only visit during the summer.

these people would have to, essentially, reapply for their job. and the commission would judge them based on criteria developed by the commmsion.
after this, the commission would make recommendations to the new executive for keep or sack all the bush appointees.

As always, it's gonna depend where you plant them. I'll be putting them in on the side of the house that faces east and is cut off from the strong sun after noon - they should work. In Albuquerque? Same rules - keep them out of more than five or six hours of direct sun, sheltered from strong winds, rich soil with enough water.

IMUS: "Don't talk about me doing used car commercials. I'll bet you I've slept in a house with more black children who were not related to me than you have.
And to Imus that's what they are. "Black children." Nappy headed props for him to hide behind.

Barndog,
O there's one Christmas CD I like - It has one really beautiful Irish song sung by an Irish soprano in Irish and I just love it.
But mainly, yah, they sound alike. And I am allergic to "easy listenin' "

In case you hadn't seen it before, file under No Duh:
Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver knows he's doing alright
Hear him whip the women, just around midnight
Drums beating cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' where it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doing alright
You should a heard him just around midnight
I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
I'm no school boy but I know what I like
You should have heard me just around midnight
Ah, brown sugar how come you taste so good?
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, whew
Just like a black girl should

Oliphant always seemed to me like he knows something but is too timid to actually say it so he keeps his knowledge to himself and his friends. It is like he enjoys the knowledge but he also likes being liked by his political friends and would never do anything to jeapordize that friendship.
In other words, clueless.

Well, Keith O's take on Imusgate should be pretty intersting tonight.
Keith never in my experience takes on Imus or Tweety, though there is ample opportunity. I'm guessing it's because they are on the same network.
But maybe tonight will be different.

Bush Faces Rough End of Term
tikistitch
Ooo thank you, I had not.
Bush has vowed to veto such legislation, and while Democrats lack the votes to override it they have not backed down on that front or in other battles with the White House, such as the prosecutor purge.
Who was it who was saying that the Democrats were backing down? Yesterday people were posting the quote. And it referred to an article that said no such thing.
Poor widdle CooCoo and all his widdle twolls - they are so done ruined and fucked!

after this, the commission would make recommendations to the new executive for keep or sack all the bush appointees.
euphronius, Night School!
Nice, except all the politicals who were presidential appointments or Schedule C appointments will be dismissed automatically at the conclusion of Shrub's term. They are none of them career or career-conditional employees and thus have no shelf-life past the end of the administration.
The problem is that a great number of career or career conditional GS positions were converted to Schedule C or Presidential appointment positions - and thus, come the end of the administration, the occupants will be removed, the positions will no longer exist and the infrastructure of the agencies to which the appointees were grafted will be so weakened and so understaffed that it will be extremely difficult for it to function. It's one thing for ten percent. of your employees to be nonfunctionals and removed from active duty - it's quite another when you've lost 30 or 40 percent. and there's no way to regain the jobs involved.
If you thought it was tough to get a camping permit thru a federal park, or get an SBA loan approved or have the EPA follow thru on research now.... Try it when there's 30% left effectives. That's the consequence.

Pardon me while I vomit my Vulcan breakfast.
First Seder is out and now this shit? (Oh btw, I can say shit, since I'm not broadcasting on a publicly owned radio network and I don't have a producer with a seven second delay protecting me.)
Of course Imus is talking about his camps where he works with kids, Yippee and Brian Sussman works with foster kids whoopiee fraking do. That doesn't excuse their racist comments. Sussman has kids who are mixed race. Great. Imus has a camp for kids .Great. That doesn't excuse their PATTERN of continued violent Rhetoric and racist and anti-Muslim comments.
As Mike Stark said to the hosts at KSFO when they whined about some comments, "WE already apologized." "how many times do you have to apologize before you realize you are incompetent and find another profession."
