Kucinich: ‘We went to war for the oil companies’

Rep. Dennis Kucinich, who has introduced measures to impeach George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, said Thursday that oil executives who secretly met with the vice president in 2001 should be held criminally liable for pushing an illegal war.

“Our nation's soul is stained because we went to war for the oil companies and their profits. There must be accountability not only with this Administration for its secret meetings and its open illegal warfare but also for the oil company…

Lanny Davis, noted Hillary Clinton backer, Lieberman suckup, Bush apologist, author of a book decrying gotcha politics [no linky to garbage rule] and purveyor of gotcha politics against Barack Obama, is joining Fox as a contributor.

I do not wish harm on anyone else like Bill O Rielly like I saw on the Post above. I just wish that Tim Russert was still here. I loved watching him on Sunday mornings and I do not know who else will be able to fill his shoes. I will miss him…

KUCINICH THREATENS with 60 Impeachment Article’s!

Former 2008 Democrat presidential candidate, said if the House fails to act on his articles of impeachment, or if the articles are sabotaged in committee, he will come back with 60 articles. Earlier this week, the maverick Congressman introduced 35 articles of impeachment against Bush.

An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the boy should give some thought to choosing a profession. Like many young men, the boy didn’t really know what he wanted to do, and he didn’t seem too…

Dick Cheney’s Incest Joke Irks West Virginian Lawmaker

[His incest “joke”] rubbed folks in the Mountain State the wrong way, especially those who are sick and tired of hearing West Virginia incest jokes. Already, members of the West Virginia congressional delegation - Republicans and Democrats alike - are ticked off.

My brother-in-law Warren W Burnett a former Police Officer here in the Monsey NY area of Ramapo Township NYS once quoted himself as saying ” I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.” How true he was. While this might be…

Americas Decline Is Largely Self-Inflicted

In a month of horrific natural disasters it’s instructive to consider what one of the biggest UNnatural disasters in memory looks like. That is the decline in America’s position in the world from where we were when George W. Bush inherited power on Jan. 20, 2001.

The issue goes way beyond Bush's decision to invade Iraq in the middle of the war in Afghanistan. U.S. government literally broke down during the Bush years. The interagency process was destroyed as Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld set up what…

Clinton Says to Root For Filly in Derby…Horse Dies

Hillary Clinton urged her supporters to root for the lone filly, Eight Belles, in the Kentucky Derby today. Eight Belles finished second and unfortunately had to be euthanized on the track after breaking both legs. The race was won by a horse named Big Brown. Is this a sign of things to come in the upcoming primaries?

Should Sen. Clinton come out and loudly say "No (pause) You (pause) Caaaaaaannn't!" ?

When Sock Puppets Rule Our Media

Tomorrow’s New York Times reports about the Pentagon sock puppets who have been posing as “military experts” on the nation’s national news and political-talk broadcasts. […] It’s a thorough and devastating portrait, and every word deserves reading, largely because it lays bare the machinations that went into selling the war to the public.

Interestingly Dave, I suspect that they are probably opposed to it, because they probably understand the ramifications of the destruction of the Geneva Conventions. I am sure that none of them ever viewed it was quaint? while they were on…

Why We Boo

It’s become clear to just about everyone that the American media aren’t informing them or helping to sort through difficult issues in the course of this presidential campaign, and are instead focusing on the trivial, the silly, the truly insignificant, as though these kinds of effluvia constitute the reasons why we vote.
