The first name for Duct Tape was DUCK. During World War II the U.S. Military needed a waterproof tape to keep the moisture out of ammunition cases. So, they enlisted the Johnson and Johnson Permacel Division to manufacture the tape. Because it was waterproof, everyone referred to it as “duck” tape (like water off a duck’s back). Military personnel discovered that the tape was good for lots more than keeping out water. They used it for Jeep repair, fixing stuff on their guns, strapping equipment to their clothing... the list is endless.
After the War, the housing industry was booming and someone discovered that the tape was great for joining the heating and air conditioning duct work. So, the color was changed from army green to the silvery color we are familiar with today and people started to refer to it as “duct tape*.” Therefore, either name is appropriate.

I went over to the DHS site. For today, the special is...
Current Threat Level
June 22, 2007 — The United States government national threat level Elevated, or Yellow.
The U.S. threat level is High, or Orange, for all domestic and international flights. Only small amounts of liquids, aerosols and gels are allowed in carry-on baggage.
See the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) website for up-to-date information on items permitted and prohibited on airlines.
Recommended Activities
* All Americans should continue to be vigilant, take notice of their surroundings, and report suspicious items or activities to local authorities immediately.
Everyone should establish an emergency preparedness kit and emergency plan for themselves and their family, and stay informed about what to do during an emergency.

It's really wonderful to watch apologists for inaction now have to watch as action defeats evil. They will change the subject; they will attack those who got this entire story right while they got it entirely wrong. But they will never reconsider. That would require the kind of open mind that Conason jettisoned years ago. The forces of evil are being dealt a terrible blow on the battle-field.

Students from a radical mosque in Islamabad have released nine hostages, including six Chinese women, whom they accused of prostitution.
A top cleric at the Lal Masjid (Red Mosque) said they were freed after the authorities gave assurances they would shut down mixed-sex massage parlours.
The students broke into an acupuncture clinic late on Friday in the Pakistan capital, which they said was a brothel.
It is the latest in a series of acts by hardliners from the mosque this year.

Variety reported yesterday that Moore won’t debate Tom Delay on ABC News. He was originally scheduled to debate former Rep. Billy Tauzin:
On Thursday, former House GOP leader Tom DeLay called filmmaker Michael Moore a “plus-sized publicity hound” who is “chicken” because the controversial helmer canceled a skedded appearance this Sunday on a talker to debate health care issues, the subject of his “Sicko.”
~~~
“Guess he didn’t expect anyone to seriously take him on,” DeLay wrote on his Web site. “Had I known he was this chicken. . . ”

...recall the position of the McCarthy-Levin-Malkin-Crittenden right. It is that everyone in (Gitmo) is the "worst of the worst". They're all terrorists, according to Limbaugh and Romney. Romney's position is that he wants to "double Gitmo." (Why, by the way, has the press not followed up by asking Mitt what on earth he means by that literally nonsensical piece of pandering?) So, according to Malkin, the president is about to release 80 murderous, guilty Jihadist terrorists into the world. Let's see if Malkin even utters a squeak.
"JUST READ CONASON: This guy has done everything he can to stop the liberation of Iraq. Now watch him spin and squirm. He's spinning the "peace" movement as supportive of our troops; he's trying to portray the right as anti-Bush (sorry, Joe, David Frum beat you to that angle by several days); and then he lobs a few volleys at Charles Krauthammer and Richard Perle. It's really wonderful to watch apologists for inaction now have to watch as action defeats evil. They will change the subject; they will attack those who got this entire story right while they got it entirely wrong. But they will never reconsider. That would require the kind of open mind that Conason jettisoned years ago. The forces of evil are being dealt a terrible blow on the battle-field. But their chattering enablers are about to be politically annihilated."
Even if his realization that Bush is a horrible president is genuine, his condemnation of anti-war types back at the time the war began is unconscionable.

A trial of members of the feared religious police in Saudi Arabia over the death of a man in their custody has been delayed, according to reports.
The death was one of two fatalities a few weeks ago that sparked a media uproar and calls for a re-evaluation of the force's role and responsibilities.
The man, Ahmed al-Bulaiwi, was accused of socialising with an unrelated woman.
No new date has so far been set for the trial, which was to involve at least three police.

Religious students at a mosque in Islamabad, Pakistan's capital, have released nine people who they had earlier kidnapped and accused of running a brothel.
The hostages, including six Chinese women, were released on Saturday after authorities intervened and allegedly gave assurances that the government would stop mixed-sex massage parlours.
Abdul Rashid Ghazi, a leader at the mosque, said the nine had been released in the interests of friendship between Pakistan and China.
The writer says "The US is based on Freedom of religion, speech, etc. which means you can believe in God any way you want (Baptis, Catholic, Methodist, etc.) but you must believe."

The Sagrada Familia, the barleysugar-turreted fantasy that has become the symbol of Barcelona, has been under construction for 125 years without planning permission. The religious authorities seeking to complete Antoni Gaudi's extravaganza confessed this week "the works haven't had a licence for 125 years".
The city hall has turned a blind eye to the spectacular expansion of the Temple of the Holy Family, a gesture of tolerance unlikely to be granted anyone planning a Barcelona loft extension. But a recent dispute over whether a proposed high-speed train link might undermine the monument's foundations has turned the public spotlight on the unlicensed status of Gaudi's best-known work.

More of them are coming home, with injuries of a scope and magnitude the government did not predict and is now struggling to treat.
Survival rates today are even higher than the record levels set early in the war, thanks to body armor and better care. For every American soldier or Marine killed in Iraq, 15 others have survived illness or injury there.

Hey, Steverino - what's the story on the lady you made faint at the bus stop?
I'm really rather suprised this has not been mentioned here today.
The federal government recorded a $1.3 trillion loss last year -- far more than the official $248 billion deficit -- when corporate-style accounting standards are used, a USA TODAY analysis shows.
[snip]
Modern accounting requires that corporations, state governments and local governments count expenses immediately when a transaction occurs, even if the payment will be made later.
The federal government does not follow the rule, so promises for Social Security and Medicare don't show up when the government reports its financial condition.

“Newspapers are dying, and there are two reasons why,” said the Fox News host and Creators Syndicate newspaper columnist. “One reason is the Internet. The other is ideology.”
O’Reilly contended that many newspapers are losing circulation because they’ve allowed the “liberal” ideology of their editorial pages to “bleed into news coverage” — despite, he said, there being a greater number of “traditional conservatives” than liberals in the American population.
The result? “Audiences are estranged from most major newspapers,” O’Reilly told the columnist attendees. “They hate you. When someone hates you, they’re not going to give you your money.”

Tony Blair will retain the use of his prime ministerial country retreat for a few days after he leaves Number 10 next week, it emerged yesterday.
Aides refused to confirm, on security grounds, whether the departing prime minister and his wife, Cherie, would stay at Chequers in Buckinghamshire.
But renovations on their new £3.6 million home in central London are not expected to be complete in time for their departure from Downing Street on Wednesday.
Considering the archival nature of the Internet and the speed at which documents can be recovered (instantly), it's astounding that these political pundits can write with such shameless conviction.

How many times did he bail out into the Pacific, leaving the rest of his crew to die?
Dude. WWII era Navy fighter planes were single seat. There was only one crew member on each plane.
He wasn't in a fighter. He was in an Avenger.

Did you read the Friedman response to Sullivan, just above the link? Interesting, in 2003 Friedman sounds almost sensible.

I've a vague memory from The Family that Bush pere left a number of comrades in the drink. More than just one. Am I wrong?
I am sorry. I am playing around and causing some problems with the historical record. GHWB was not a fighter pilot; he was a bomber pilot. And yes, he ditched his plane and his two crewmates died.

Canada's Anglicans could dramatically deepen the rifts within the worldwide Church over homosexuality this weekend by giving approval to gay blessings.
Such a step by the Canadian General Synod would all but extinguish the chances of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, averting schism.
Observers say the vote, which would give individual dioceses the discretion to allow same-sex blessings, is "on a knife-edge".

I doubt Bush is deliberately rewriting history. I suspect he doesn't know anything about his father's service, nor anything about the diff between fighters and TBFs.

In June 1943, future-President George H.W. Bush became the youngest naval aviator at the time. While flying a TBM with VT-51 (from the USS San Jacinto), his plane was shot down on September 2, 1944 over the Pacific island of Chichi Jima. Both of his crewmates died; however, because he released his payload and hit the target before being forced to bail out, he received the Distinguished Flying Cross.
Another famous Avenger aviator is Paul Newman, who flew as a rear gunner. He had hoped to be accepted for pilot training, but did not qualify because of being color blind. Newman was onboard the carrier Hollandia (CVE-97) roughly five hundred miles from Japan when the Enola Gay dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima.[1]

Yeah, peanut butter and pickle alone wouldn't do that alone.
when my brother was visiting i told his kids that any foods starting with 'p' went well together. we had peanutbutter and pickles, potato chips, pineapple, pimentos and peppers.
then they all piled in the minivan and drove home. about 10 hours away.
The only reason Richard does owe Agent Orange a beverage is that they cited different references.

Modern accounting requires that corporations, state governments and local governments count expenses immediately when a transaction occurs, even if the payment will be made later.
The federal government does not follow the rule, so promises for Social Security and Medicare don't show up when the government reports its financial condition.
Not to mention the clusterfuck in Iraq being paid for "off budget", therefore never showing up in the "official" accounting of Federal spending.
This is a trick that El Fucktardo's dipshit of a father used to cover up the S&L bailout that one of his other wastrel sons, Neil, particpated in.

He had a tail gunner that didn't make it. And you are a gigantic jackass. I'm sure you got all over people that questioned Kerry's war service, and then you do the same. You are a blowhard hypocrite. Piss off.

When you get down to it, the bottom line on Andrew Sullivan is really that he is a prick, lacking in the virtue of honesty. He fails to give what is due to those who are due. The fact that he has some imperfectly realized redeeming qualities, just makes it that much worse.
Andrew Sullivan really is an asshole.

He's a fucking idiot.
Bushboy was trained to fly jet fighters, so he ought to know what typt of pilot his old man was.
I had an uncle that flew the Curtiss Hellcat dive bomber in the Pacific. He got killed long before I was born and I know what type of pilot he was.

"We -- We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons..."
...but, but why would Bush send us to war for fictitious reasons....AND why would Bush want Richard Clarke to lie and say that 9/11 was caused by Saddam AND not bin Ladin???
If American EVER answered that question honestly - both Bush and Cheney would fry like Timothy McVeigh (except Timothy died by lethal injection) so really, the chair would be two good for those two.
That man, George W. Bush just sit there and listen to a book about a goat while Americans in NY when splat on the sidewalk and why, because Bush KNEW, he knew what was going down, that SOB knew what was happening, he knew it - because some intelligence office cover his ass by telling Bush about a pending terrorist attack, and Bush said "well, you covered your ass" as if somehow, Bush already know about a terrorist plot.

Of course, that first Sully post was from March 24, the day after the Oscars and just a few days after the invasion. As he says in the second quote you use, it wasn't debunked for "a few weeks". How could he have known?

Sullied Sully. His ugly bloated writing in which he featured himself as the romantic second to the turgid President Bush, was full of a sentimentality and hatefulness that was spectacular and unique. Given his audience at the time of 9/11 and the start of the war, many of whom were formerly leftwing gays harkening to his call for independent thinking, his vehemence was particularly irresponsible and consequential. He pretended to have apologized, but I have not seen him eat his words in the slow and toxic attitude that is merited. Read the New Yorker article Sontag wrote that inspired his sneering Susan Sontag Award, and you will find the points she made are about as radical as what nowadays appears in a Peoria Journal editorial. Sully, you weren't fit to associate with her, though you tried to join the party by ridiculing her, you simply never were even near to an equal and thus, missed the point.
Now, somehow he has gone from a sentimental stance further to the right than Peggy Noonan, to a sudden middle of the road position. He has chosen to be an outspoken opponent of torture and spokesman for wholesome Christianity with all the conviction that a Miss America contestant chooses "making the world a better place" as her vocation. His resurrection of late, which finds him being quoted by Glen Greenwald and other places of polite socity, is just premature by a lifetime. Sullivan has not been forgiven and should not be in out and about with his quips but shackled in the public square with his own quotes hanging from his neck, just as they do in this post. Vile man, destructive, violent, legacy.
