This Is Not A Democracy, It's A Republic........

Gravatar You had me at "great big giant teat."


Gravatar You'd like one?


Gravatar I'd never turn one down, if that's what you mean.


Gravatar Good stuff jenn, I ran across you on the site of a friend and thought I'd visit-glad I did and I invite you to do the same anytime at:

Gravatar Thanks for dropping by Michael. Like your blog.


Gravatar F%*k Mexico.


Gravatar Succinctly put Laura.

I think I'm just about done with them myself, in fact, most of Central America.


Gravatar By the way Will, that was pretty funny there with the Jerry Mcquire reference. : )


Gravatar It doesn't happen often, but sometimes I have some funny in me.


Gravatar Nicely done, Jenn! I got here from our mutual buddy Mike at Mike's America. I've got you blogrolled now, so could I persuade you to check mine out (similar to yours in ideology)? Thanks!

Jonathan


Gravatar Off topic, but interesting. According to the White House, it didn't happen. In England, they're on trial. Go figure.

British men face trial over "Jazeera bombing" leak

By Katherine Baldwin / Reuters

LONDON - A British court on Tuesday ordered two men to face trial on charges of leaking a memo that a lawmaker said described a plan by U.S. President George W. Bush to bomb Arabic television station Al Jazeera.

The defendants, civil servant David Keogh and Leo O'Connor, a researcher who worked for a former British lawmaker, face a preliminary hearing on January 24 on charges of breaking the Official Secrets Act and their lawyers are pushing for the secret document to be disclosed.

A British newspaper reported last year that the memo of a meeting between Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair in April 2004 detailed a proposal by Bush to bomb Al Jazeera but said Blair had persuaded him against the plan.

The story was dismissed as "outlandish" by the White House and Blair denied receiving details of any U.S. proposal to bomb Al Jazeera.

Britain's attorney general has warned media they will be breaking the law if they publish details of the document.

British Member of Parliament Peter Kilfoyle told Reuters on Tuesday that he had been briefed on its contents by Tony Clarke, the lawmaker who employed O'Connor, after he received a copy.

"He made me aware of the contents," said Kilfoyle. "There was a discussion about bombing Al Jazeera headquarters in Qatar and also about the attack on (the Iraqi town) Falluja."

"My understanding ... is that Blair and (former U.S. Secretary of State) Colin Powell were against the bombing of Al Jazeera," said Kilfoyle, who opposed Britain joining the U.S. in invading Iraq, as did other rebel Labor party members.

Blair's spokesman declined to comment on Tuesday on Kilfoyle's remarks.

Al Jazeera has repeatedly denied U.S. accusations it sides with insurgents in Iraq.

In 2001, the station's Kabul office was hit by U.S. bombs and in 2003 Al Jazeera reporter Tareq Ayyoub was killed in a U.S. strike on its Baghdad office. The U.S. has denied targeting the station.

NOTHING TO EMBARRASS BRITAIN

O'Connor's lawyer Neil Clark told reporters outside Bow Street Magistrate's court on Tuesday that he had been shown the document ahead of the committal hearing but could not discuss the contents. He said it was a four-page memo marked "Secret."

"It's what I expected having read the media," he said. "I didn't think that there was anything in there that would embarrass the British government."

O'Connor has already indicated he will plead not guilty at the preliminary hearing on January 24.

Keogh's lawyer Stuart Jeffery declined to comment on whether he had received the document.

"We've still got a number of enquiries to make as to what has been revealed," he told reporters.

Keogh also faces a second charge under secrecy laws which prohibit disclosu


Gravatar Yes, not only off topic, but frankly sounds like a load of crap. : )


Gravatar Well, the English government obviously thinks it's more than a "load of crap." Punishing the dudes who leaked official top secret government files is a lot of trouble to go through if it wasn't anything important.

Let me know when you're out of denial. I realize it's not mainstream news here, which is why you and most others don't care, but do you think maybe there's a reason for that?

The fact that Dubya had a plan to blow up a news organization, and it is a fact, isn't scary to you?


Gravatar I heard about it months ago..... I was under the impression that it was an offhand remark.

Same thing as when I make comments like,"My dog would be a better coach than Schottenheimer".


Gravatar I'm confused.

At any rate, I guess it doesn't matter. It wasn't a topic anyways.

Carry on.


Gravatar You need to aim a little higher with your kick...then seal the border, add mines, quicksand, gun towers, trap doors with tigers. We are being invaded! This is a national security issue, not a human rights campaign!


Gravatar Is this a blog or a museum?


Gravatar Uh, Blog?


Gravatar Just wondering, because it's updated with new stuff about as often as exhibits are.

Just a cheap shot, that's all.

I was bored yesterday and hoping to see something new on here.


Gravatar Don't worry, you'll get your Friday Funnies soon.


Gravatar Oh, hey Will, this is from my brother..... hee hee hee.

I really must read your blog more often, it's more entertaining than Bill O'Reilly and David Letterman (together). That guy Will just doesn't seem to get it. The have always and will always pay more taxes than the poor. What he's really trying to say is that he'd like the rich to pay the same "percentage tax to income ratio" that the poor pay.

The stupid liberals always harp on that. If Joe Sixpack making $30K/yr is paying 15% ($4500) fed taxes but the rich doctor making $300K/yr is paying only 10% ($30K/yr) it isn't enough for them. They want the doctor to pay 15% also. Fucking communists/socialist loser liberals don't understand that in a consumer driven economy you have volume makers and margin makers. Joe Sixpack is a volume maker spending a few dollars at Wal-Mart and making there sales add up to billions every year (with 10% margins 'cause Joe needs cheap clothes) because there are millions of worker-bees just like him.

Now, you take the doctor and he buys a Hummer, a boat, and first-class airfare on United and they all get 20-30% margins that make those companies really profitable. It's economics 101.

Maybe I could post that message up on your blog and the stupid f*ck would finally get it. Voodoo economics - he needs a little voodoo up his doodoo.

Hee hee hee..... Sorry Bro, had to share.


Gravatar "Jenn's brother does not care about poor people." - Willye West

So, in a nutshell, the economy and ensuring that the rich get richer is far more important than leaving low-income families with more "peanuts" to spend.

Econonmy 101 vs. Common Sense and Compassion 101.

"Voodoo economics - he needs a little voodoo up his doodoo."
I see that the cornball sense of humor runs in the family.


Gravatar Typical Liberal Golddigger.


Gravatar Hey, the day we stop paying taxes is the day I start saying the government doesn't owe me anything. Especially when they're nothing but a bunch of dicknoses tossing around millions of dollars like it's nothing. (Illegally, at that.)


Gravatar To the commenter who said:

F%*k Mexico.

I wish this commenter would visit my country one day.
