Impeachment hearing in the House Judiciary
Committee is scheduled for July 25,
2008 at 10:00 a.m. Will this be an attempt
at placating the impeachment demands of the
populace or did Rep. John Conyers change his
mind and decide to really investigate high
crimes of the Bush Administration? Contact
your congressmen and urge them to have an
open and fair hearing of the evidence. It is
time for Bush-Cheney, et al to pay
the piper for their sins against humanity
and their crimes of greed and torture.

YOUR CANDIDATE AND THE
FOURTH AMENDMENT-
 Democratic
apparent nominee Barack
Obama played politics
with your civil
liberties- he went both
ways, voted for
amendments that he knew
would fail and then
voted for the FISA bill.
|
 Republican
nominee heir-apparent John McCain
decided to abstain - therefore he can
have it both ways. |
|
 Hillary
Clinton heard the message while
campaigning and even though she could
not stop the establishment super
delegates from going to Obama, she voted
for the people and the fourth amendment.
|
 Do
you feel the Democratic Party
going down the wrong road in
lock-step with the Republicans
with the nomination of Senator
Barack Obama? if so, contact
Howard Dean at the Democratic
National Committee and impress
upon him that FISA, War Funding
and IRAN blockade votes by Obama
lead you to believe he is not
the man for 2008. Ask him to get
the Super Delegates to
reconsider and support a
candidate who has Democratic
Party principles.

Republicans voted in lock-step
with Bush to shut out civil
liberties and continue to pay telecoms huge fees to spy on
you, me and everyone. The
following Democrats voted with the
Republicans- Let's vote them out
in November if they are up for
re-election and if not this year,
when they do run again..

Next up, the
IRAN WAR VOTE -
Will these same
Democratic party
imposters vote for a
blockade on IRAN,
an act of war?
If they do, this
vote will surely
be a vote
for $300.00
per barrel oil
and the
destruction of
America.

OBAMA'S CHANGE LOOKS LIKE MORE OF
THE SAME
Letter to
Jerry Pippin from columnist Jerry
Wilhite
|
|
Jerry,
First, I would say to you
that the people who have been saying that the Attorney
General could go against the telecon companies are
correct. However, there is no requirement to do so. It
could be, just as Bush's "I'm a uniter" statement, just
sop for the followers. We don't even know who will be
AG, much less whether he is "owned" by special
interests.
The amendments do remove immunity. That is a case
of a Democrat saying :"Enough!!"
Obama announced today that he would expand funding
to faith based charities, because government just
couldn't do it all. Let's think about that. The
war in Iraq is a tremendous loss of money and
manpower. The war in Pakistan is a waste of money and
manpower. The war in Afghanistan is a waste of money
and manpower. The wan on drugs may cost more than the
others combined.
The
General Accounting Office has demonstrated a
failure to properly account for our tax dollars.
Hundreds of Millions, maybe even BILLIONS of dollars
have disappeared in
Iraq. Until the GAO can get it right, keep the
money in house. I don't believe all faith based
anything is necessarily above embezzlement.
I want honest government the way it used to be.
Changing occupants in the Oval Office may not be good
enough. All incumbents, but a couple, should be voted
out of office. They simply have not done their jobs!!
I offer no solutions. I had thought Obama was the
answer. Now, I am not so sure. Sure wish I knew who he
was going to select for VP. Edwards would make me feel
better. Kucinich would make me ecstatic. Probably
won't be either.
I will reserve my final opinion for a while.
However, professional politician Obama is starting to
not look so good. Just my two cents worth!!
JW
July 1, 2008
My Answer - Wilhite, I
had suspected this all
along, too many of the
establishment
politicians were jumping
on the Obama train.
Looks like it will be
Bush Business as usual
with just a slightly
different spin. Too bad.
You have to give these
Bush people credit, they
know what favors money
can buy, indeed.

BUSH
BUSINESS Works
Because He Shares the Wealth!
Much like the old time pirates on open
seas, Bush and company loves to give
away US tax payer financed borrowed
money. Remember the 8 billion in paper
sacks taken to
Iraq to buy loyalty and to allow
old cronies to take their share, just
like the mafia used to do in the
counting rooms of Vegas? Well now we get
the official word, two billion
Pentagon borrowed dollars is
missing. It went to
Pakistan, but no one knows who
got it? Government accounting is
creative especially at the Pentagon, but
they just can't cover up the fact that
two billion is missing.
Where did it go, payoff to Ben Laden for
helping the crooks take over the US
government and steal, steal and lie, lie?
Then there is crooked General Motors-trained
executive who decided he was a General and
ruled the country of Pakistan with an iron
fist; he needed to get a little of the
goodies too and he did.
|
On a hot humid day in June in the US, it is
apparent that we have been had by
Bush/Cheney and now McCain wanting to be
Bush 3? Will the country wise up and throw
the bums out and into jail cells or will
FEAR take over with another terrorist attack
just before election time? If the stakes of
liberty and pursuit of happiness for the
general population were not so high, one
would have to congratulate these two-bit..no
that's two-trillion-dollar crooks for their
ability to keep on stealing, lying and
cheating, and oh, what are a few hundred
thousand fatalities in the pursuit of
wealth, the world is too populated anyway,
right?

McCain and Obama were seated next to each other at
today's memorial service for Tim Russert |
THE
OTHER SIDE
OF THE TIM RUSSERT EULOGY
Tom Brokaw with a bottle of Russert's
favorite beer, Rolling Rock, toasted:
"There will be some
tears, some laughs, and the occasional
truth." This is a difficult column to
write and it is full of danger. The
danger of misunderstanding. First of all
by all accounts
Tim Russert was a fine man, most
liked him a lot.
|
|
He was by all accounts a
family man, a devout
Catholic and at least atone time he was like me a
liberal when it came to political
matters. Then there is the overriding
factor that will also be apparent in
this article: Tim Russert was wildly
successful, while from common roots much
like myself, he rose to the very top of
a couple of professions and his career
makes mine look like a minor league
player. |
So why write anything?
Shouldn't Tim Russert be allowed to rest
in peace, after all, look at what has
been done in his name in just recent
days. President Bush, Laura, the first
lady, Jack Welch the former chairman of
Russert's parent company GE, heaping
praise on this man. The obvious emotions
of his fellow colleagues and competitors
being truly felt and transmitted to
everyone.
The two
presidential-to-be candidates, John
McCain and Barack Obama sitting
together, even the Clintons were there,
competitor CBS news even offered a video
feed of the memorial service. But there
is something that needs to be said to
counter balance the natural re-writing
of history by the media on their fallen
media leader, so I am going to say it in
the next paragraph and just let it hang
out there for the reader to contemplate.
The problem with the
career of Tim Russert rising to the top
is the problem we have with the
corporate media today and have had for
some time. It was just brought home with
the untimely death of their leading
journalistic general. As far as Russert
was concerned, religion and his beliefs
based on that religion were evident in
his work as an editor of truth. He was
in charge of the NBC news bureau and his
liberal background working for Democrats
in the past was over-compensated by his
effort to show fairness to the other
side. In short, he slanted his "Meet the
Press" questions in favor of the neo con
movement. It was apparent to many
liberals and in death, the elite of the
corporate crowd and the leader of the
neo conservative movement President Bush
himself showed up with emotion to honor
in their opinion a good foot soldier for
their movement.
Russert in this writer's
opinion is solely responsible for
Hillary Clinton's demise as the apparent
nominee of the Democratic party. Russert
had allowed without prejudice, the right
wing conspiracy to trash President
Clinton by using his forum every Sunday
morning, with Russert not asking hard
questions about war, graft, abuse of
power by the Republican party. Yet he
hammered away at the Democratic players
with tough questions. He seemed to have
it in for the Clintons.
Why would he say two
months ago that "this contest is over,"
referring to Hillary's race and it
appeared to me the NBC news bias for
Barack Obama and John McCain was there.
Hillary is a better person than me, I
guess. I would not have gone to his
funeral; but I guess that is just
another piece of the evidence of what is
wrong with national politics. The
players decided sometime ago that
Russert and NBC would be the national
deal makers, why?
Well, it was easy to see
the pure sadness in the eyes of former
GE chairman Welch as he revealed a
personal relationship with Russert the
other night on TV. The same with the
President of the United States. This is
not the time to write about the sins of
corporate media and what they have done
to America, we do that on a regular
basis already.
Corporate influence and
religious ideology should be out of
government and I think it should be out
of the media coverage of politics as
well. Tonight the sun sets on the tomb
on Tim Russert, for the first night of
many futures days and nights. In the
corporate board rooms and the news rooms
of the networks and across America, the
work will continue, reporting news
hourly and daily.
Russert was a good
warrior for the corporate world, for the
big media world, a king maker in
national politics. Is this the way we
want our news to be told in the future?
I salute Mr. Russert for his success and
for his humanity on a personal level,
but did he do us any favors in his loyal
pursuit of ideals that are fine for the
million dollar a year men in
communications and corporations; but
what about the rest of us?
Shouldn't a reporter,
especially one who has clout, one who
controls the destiny of so many who work
for him, shouldn't he have been a little
more objective in the matter of the
Clintons, the matter of war under false
pretenses, the matter of billions being
stolen by a fraudulent administration?
Our sympathy goes out to
the Russert family and to NBC news; but
I leave with this question. How did a
political animal with no journalism
training become the boss of the most
important news bureau in the NBC news
family? Well, one thing is apparent Mr.
Welch liked him a lot.

Beyond Impeachment: We
All Can Play a Role in Bringing the
Bu$ch-Cheezey RICO Junta to Account
Larry W. Bryant has the right idea.
He recently wrote a letter to the US Marshall's office
in DC saying he wanted to put Bush/Cheney under citizens
arrest for high crimes against the US. Bryant helped us
with an impeachment drive we did in our hometown of
Muskogee in which we wanted to get a citizens grand jury
to look at the crimes of the Bush Administration. We
halted the drive with only a few hundred signatures left
on the required amount due to the landslide sea-change
off-year congressional elections. We mistakenly thought
the Democratic Party would pursue such obvious
miscarriages of authority created by Bush and company
over the IRAQ war, voter fraud and massive graft in the
billions to close associates. It did not happen.
Now Bryant is off on a new romp for
justice and truth and he has a point. If Bush/Cheney and
others can escape without punishment for their crimes
what will the next group who seize power feel they can
do and get done without retribution? His efforts have
been met with stony silence by those in charge including
his own congressman, James Moran.
Check out his on line petition and sign it:
CLICK HERE
Contact your congressman and others in power with a plea
for justice. When Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney and their
associates leave office, they will all be billions of
dollars richer thru graft. The Constitution
protecting individual citizens will be lying on the
ground trampled by ambitions of the few for more power
unchecked and the moral authority of the United States
throughout the world will be in half-light, diminishing
every day before our very eyes.
We salute Bryant and all others who do have a sense that
harm has been done to Lady Liberty, she was literally
raped and pillaged before our very eyes by this group of
characters never before seen in the history of this
great nation. We must repair the damage, it is almost
too late.

CNN
correspondent Jessica Yellin said that network
executives had pushed her not to do hard-hitting
pieces on the Bush administration. Will other
brave reporters come forward? Will other news people
come forward with the truth? The evidence is
everywhere that the American people have been
propagandized for years in the name of honest news
reporting and now the truth is coming out, these men
and women of journalism have created crimes against
humanity under the cover of patriotic fever for a
war everyone knew or should have known was a
creation of the neo-con movement for fun and profit.
Will anyone
go to jail? Manslaughter, negligent homicide and
perjury crimes are rampant and now in the cover up
torture, black mail and other crimes are being
committed daily by members of the press, members of
this administration. Just today, Friday, May 30,
2008, while men and women die under false pretenses
our secretary of state is in a hotel in
Europe
with the rock group KISS partying it up. When will
the American People say. "Enough is enough." We
submit to you many TV news men, major newspaper
correspondents should be fired, executives of these
organizations need to be prosecuted and members of
the administration should be held accountable and
prosecuted.

I Suppose I Have
Always Been Naïve
by Jerry Wilhite
05/30/08
I suppose I have always been naïve…but I trusted
politicians. Now, like a firestorm, I learn that a
few may have been deceitful. What a shock to my
little, ole country-boy mind.
A former Press Secretary, for no less noble an
institution than the White House has confirmed what
many had only suspected. President Bush, Vice
President Cheney, and others among their staff
grossly misled the American public prior to
“shocking and awing” the world with more bombs than
we could afford. I, in my innocence, would never
have thought it possible.
The mere thought that the same men who saved New
Orleans, wherever it used to be, and the same men
who forged an energy policy to protect Americans
from rising oil costs would be deceitful just went
against my grain.
I have been angry with the media being embedded
with troops because I feared a bond might be forged,
which would cause our media to just print news
releases rather than facts. It turns out I was
horribly wrong. As a perfect example, President Bush
announced, in a warrior type way, “Mission
Accomplished”. The media has paid zero attention and
continues to talk about dead and dying people in the
newfound Democracy of Iraq. Hell to the Chief!!
I suppose growing up in Oklahoma may have been
partially responsible for my mind-set on
politicians. We had Will Rogers to keep us straight.
Texas had Billy Saul Estes. They were worlds apart
in attitude and character. Now this disgruntled,
whistle blowing, former Press Secretary tells us
that Bush-Cheney, and probably McCain are more Estes
type.
My god, say it isn’t so; politicians lacking in
morals and scruples. Give me back the good old
times!!
wilhite@jerrypippin.com
The country is buzzing today over a
tell-all book by former White House Press Secretary
Scott McClellan. In his explosive memoir, McClellan
reveals that the Bush administration ran a
"political propaganda campaign" to mislead the
American public on the war in Iraq.
But he takes it one step further,
implicating the mainstream media for its role in
"enabling" this propaganda: "The national press
corps was probably too deferential to the White
House" in spreading the president's case for the
war, McClellan writes. The mainstream media didn't
live up to its watchdog reputation. "If it had, the
country would have been better served."
 This should be a shock to everyone.
The president's own spokesman lays a large share of
the blame for Bush's pro-war propaganda on the
media's "deferential" treatment of
White
House spin.
Please become part of a growing
people-powered campaign to investigate this scandal
and make media more accountable to the public:
Make Mainstream Media Answer for Spreading Pro-War
Propaganda
Click on the link above and sign a
letter that urges House Committee Chairs
Ike Skelton,
John Tierney and
Henry Waxman to convene full congressional
hearings about propaganda in the news.
The media's complicity in promoting
this war was confirmed Wednesday night by CNN
correspondent Jessica Yellin who said that
network executives had pushed her not to do
hard-hitting pieces on the Bush administration
as the nation readied for war.
"The press corps was under enormous
pressure from corporate executives, frankly, to make
sure that this was a war presented in a way that was
consistent with the patriotic fever in the nation,"
Yellin told CNN's
Anderson Cooper. (Watch

WORLD ORDER or OLD WORLD ORDER CONTINUED?
Researcher Don Nicoloff believes he can prove that

that McCain and his heritage was largely invented
out of thin air by two Republican Presidents,
Theodore Roosevelt and
James Buchanan- in conspiracy with
Prince Albert/King Edward VII and one of his
mistresses, most likely Lady
Randolph Churchill. It
is very detailed but worth the time to read the case

BUSH TRIES FEAR TACTIC AS
GOP CONTINUES TO FALL - MISSISSIPPI NOW HAS A
DEMOCRATIC SENATOR..
(5-14-08) Republican panic grips Washington as
Mississippi House seat goes Democratic. In a last minute
effort to stop the tide of a coming Democratic
Landslide, President Bush has pulled out the terrorist
card again. This time he says an ultimate act of
terrorism is if the Democrats get elected to the
Presidency. He says they will pull out of
Iraq and create another terrorist attack on
America. Meanwhile evidence is showing the neo-con's
have cried wolf once too often..a bedrock of Southern
Support went down last night when Mississippi elected a
Democratic candidate to house in a special election.
Travis Childers, a Democrat, won a
special election for a House seat in
Mississippi on Tuesday night, defeating
Republican opponent Greg Davis and lengthening a string
of Democratic victories in solidly Republican
congressional areas. The win by Childers adds to
potential trouble for the Republican party in the fall.

BUSH USES
MARINES TO PROTECT POPPY FIELDS
(05-08-08) Last week, the 24th Marine
Expeditionary Unit moved into southern Helmand province, the
world's largest opium poppy-growing region [thanks
to Bush], and now find themselves surrounded by
green fields of the illegal plants that produce the main
ingredient of heroin. The Marines are not destroying the
plants. In fact, they are reassuring villagers the poppies
won't be touched. American commanders say the Marines would
only alienate people and drive them to take up arms if they
eliminated the impoverished Afghans' only source of income.
jUST AS THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE in SE Asia was
the center of illegal drugs in the 60s and 70s, when the
Senior Bush, and former President, was CIA director, junior
Bush will not be out done. The Country in 2000 with the
support and collaboration of the UN has almost completely
ended the illegal drug trade but then came the yanks and
opion cultivation again was on the rise beginning in
October 2001 US led invasion, production increased
dramatically, regaining its historical levels and
staying there.
Bush Business is not only good for the
military industrial complex but is heaven for the dopers
too. Does the Bush Mafia get protection money or are they
just in for a huge cut of the profits? |

Cheney says "Go to Hell.
Congress is not my boss."
(04-29-08) His lawyer says Congress has no authority
over Dickie boy and what he does as Vice President. Will the
Democrats in Congress take this insult or will they IMPEACH?
Enough is enough, let's tell Dick to go home. The battle
lines have been drawn because of requests from congressional
Democrats that David Addington, the vice-president's chief
of staff, testify about his involvement in the approval of
interrogation tactics used at
Guantanamo Bay. Ruling out voluntary cooperation by
Addington, Cheney lawyer Kathryn Wheelbarger said Cheney's
conduct is "not within the committee's power of inquiry"."
Cheney and his oil friends continue to make
money and give the finger to Congress. Shell Oil has
reported record profits. 4.58
billion pounds for Royal Dutch Shell and British
Petroleum made
$7.6 billion which
is 73 per cent over last quarter. |
 Voting
in the US Gets Tougher Under New
GOP
-Backed Laws
(4-29-08)
Election Day in Florida May Look Familiar Eight
years after the debacle of "hanging chads" [ coup
d'etat],
Florida once again seems to be courting electoral
trouble. 'Election' Day may end up looking oddly
familiar. According to independent elections experts, it
is now harder to vote here than in nearly every other
state in the nation. Some critics predict that tens of
thousands of potential voters will be kept off the rolls
-- many of them poor, black or Hispanic. Election
lawyers say Florida's Republican-controlled government
has introduced more restrictions on the voting process
than other states since 2000 and has fought harder to
keep them. Coup 2008 underway: The
Supreme Court ruling on Monday upholding
Indiana’s voter ID law is likely to lead to more
laws and litigation, voting experts said. Lawmakers in
at least four states may seek to pass stricter
regulations in the next year or so, the experts said. In
response, voting rights groups might sue on behalf of
individuals or groups in an effort to exempt them.
States can require voters to produce
photo identification, the
Supreme Court ruled Monday, upholding a
Republican-inspired law
that Democrats say will keep some poor, older and
minority voters from casting ballots. Twenty-five states
require some form of ID, and the court's 6-3 decision
rejecting a challenge to Indiana's strict voter ID law
could encourage others to adopt their own measures.
Oklahoma legislators said the decision should help them
get a version approved.
The US Supreme Court has ruled that all
states can demand photo identification papers from
voters in a decision which could impact on the US
presidential race six months before the 'elections.' |

DUBYA BREAKS RECORD
The
Gallup Poll which has 70 years of history and most
of it highly favorable to Republicans did everything
they could to slant the truth but it was hopeless. 69
percent of the US population has an unfavorable opinion
of George W. Bush..the worst
public opinion poll number for any US President
ever in the Gallup poll!
In a
USA TODAY/Gallup Poll taken Friday through
Sunday, 28% of Americans approve of the job Bush is
doing; 69% disapprove. If you add this up only 1 per
cent had no opinion of Mr. Bush. Most experts think this
will translate into a huge victory for whomever the
Democratic Party selects as their nominee in Denver in
August. McCain is largely seen as a clone of Bush so it
appears the era of Bush Business is coming to an end.

BUSH PUSHES AND CONGRESS GIVES
(4-20-08) A bill that would have helped states pay to
switch to paper-election balloting systems and for
random audits after elections died out of a House
committee this week, but its prime sponsor said he is
not giving up the fight. U.S.
Rep. Rush Holt (D-NJ) said the bill he sponsored,
House Bill 5036, the Emergency Assistance for
Secure Elections Act, would help make the nation's
elections more accurate and secure by helping states
move to paper ballots over touch-screen electronic
machines. The bill, which needed a two-thirds majority
to pass, went down to defeat in the House 239-178, with
223 Democrats in favor and 176 Republican opposed, after
the
White House sent out a statement opposing the
measure. |

Cheney-Rascal of Sorts? Commentary
on the Media Reveals Itself to All
4-11-08- Rascal? May be too polite a word to describe
Vice President Richard (Dick) Cheney. The strange story
of the naked woman in the sunglasses got lots of
coverage even from CBS news but the real story here is
evidence has surfaced that Cheney loves torture and
signed off on doing it early on in the Bush
Administration. He was not the only one however, lots
of top level people signed on to the idea of torturing
suspects. Even the Justice Department said it was legal
but is that law? Most law professors don't think so. If
it were law then no administration would be held
accountable for any illegal activity.
We suggest that as long as Congress does not prosecute,
as long as US attorneys do not prosecute, then not only
is the Bush Business of torture going to continue, but
so will the stealing of funds, and many other illegal
activities that have assured the second Bush
Administration its rightful place in history, the WORST.

THE IRAQ SEQUEL PLAYS
OUT ON CAPITOL HILL
(
4-9-08) Theatrics and tactics played center
stage on Tuesday and today, Wednesday, on capitol hill.
Today in the Senate, Army
Gen. David Petraeus; actually used last years
script, as if the Senators would not catch on that they
heard the same words last year. Even down to the exact
dates the General said, in July a 45 day grace period
for assessment and then a decision on more or less
troops in September.
This re-run had stooge for the administration
Senator Joe Lieberman setting up the IRAN
monologue. As drama critics had expected, the good
General seized the question about IRAN's meddling in US
Army Affairs in IRAQ and ran with it. The indication was
simply, "We can't win in IRAQ so let's go to IRAN."
This was the same playbook used in
Vietnam by Kissinger and Nixon, promising to end
the war in '68 and by '70 moving into other neighboring
countries to "smoke out the enemy." When Henry and Dick
did it, it cost us 20,000 more casualties. This time
Dubya and the current DIck think the deaths of US Troops
will be fewer. Could it be because they plan to use
Tactical nuclear weapons?
A further indication that IRAN is on the front burner is
the announcement late Tuesday night that President Bush
has an important international policy speech to give to
the nation on Thursday night.
Hey, they re-ran last year's congressional testimony on
Tuesday why not rerun that speech Bush gave back before
invading
Iraq, just change the words from
Iraq to
Iran and Saddam to militant muslims? Bush
Business has bankrupted us morally and with this new
projected move, it will bankrupt us financially.
Have any of the economists noticed that the reason the
economy sucks is that the money has been sucked out to
fight IRAQ on credit?

 BUSH
ADMINISTRATION HAS PANIC ATTACK AND ACTS ACCORDINGLY
(4-4-08) Just when it seemed like the Senate was about
to pass a bill protecting journalists from revealing
their sources in stories about government wrongdoing,
Bush/Cheney and their puppet attorney General Michael
Mukasey have come out opposed to this bill on national
security issues. This is not a new tactic by Bush and
his cronies as they have used terrorism and national
security to cover their tracks in stealing billions and
even waging a war on untruths. Now these same people are
asking you to believe the traitors among us are the
journalist and whistle blowers.
A Department of Justice Web site was posted on Thursday
aimed at drawing support for administration
proposals which would gut the present Shield Bill. We
will watch the vote and tell you who is a friend of
honest journalism and who is not.

“And the Band Played On!!”
by Jerry Wilhite - 03/30/08
I don’t really know the origin of this, but feel it was a
tribute to the band on the Titanic who continued to play,
even as their ship tried to throw them into the sea. Today
we have a similar situation, the Obama-Clinton race for the
Presidency. Today, two bands playing on, in the near future
one survivor will stand victorious.
Many feel this race will damage the chances for the
Democrats in the general election. However, both parties are
fully entitled to fight to the end. The so-called mud
slinging that has occurred has been relatively very minor.
That isn’t the problem.
I believe this is the first time I have seen the
electorate so firmly committed to a candidate, no matter
which one. It is a very possible scenario to conclude there
will be two bands still playing at the convention. Large
numbers of followers of each candidate have said they will
vote for Nader, or McCain, or stay home if their candidate
is not the bandleader in the General Election.
I have repeatedly stated that I would prefer a Democrat
in office than a Republican. The Democrats have much work to
do to restore our rights and liberties. The Republicans are
quite happy to keep feathering the nest of their cronies
until our currency is worthless.
Think, people, before you give away your vote in a snit.
The losers in that scenario are all Americans. By all means,
fight like Hell for your bandleader. But, when push comes to
shove in the General Election, vote Democrat. We plainly
can’t afford Republicans anymore!!
Meanwhile, the bands play on!!

Final Months of Bush
Business Shows that Most "Friends" of the US Do Not
Trust Us Anymore
The record for being a friend to the US if you are a
leader of a small Arab Country is pretty clear. Libyan
leader Muammar al-Gaddafi warned Arab allies of the
United States that they could meet the same fate as
former
Iraq president Saddam Hussein, hanged in 2006
three years after the US-led invasion. "A foreign force
occupied an Arab country and hanged its president and we
stood by and watched," he told an Arab summit in the
Syrian capital.
"How can they execute a prisoner of war and the
president of a member of the Arab League?" Gaddafi
asked. He said Saddam had been a friend of the United
States during the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s "before
they turned against him and executed him. You could all
suffer the same fate, he warned. Even you, even we, who
are considered friends of America, one day (America) can
give the green light for our own hanging," said the
Libyan leader.
The Godfather of the Bush takeover of American politics,
former President Ronald Reagan ordered bombing Gaddafi
and the Libyan leader's daughter was killed in the
incident. The pretense was the Pan Am bombing over
Scotland which later evidence showed a likelihood
of its being a CIA act to rev up tensions for Republican
political purposes.

NORTH KOREA FIRES OFF SEVERAL MISSILE TESTS
and Pakistan says US not welcome to continue with "killing
fields" in their country. Meanwhile Defense Secretary Gates
wants to find our missing Nukes- orders inventory search..
remember last September the Nukes flying across country?
Well this week, nuclear fuses were given to
Taiwan by accident. Bush Business is out of control
when it comes to containing nuclear weapons. Open Rebellion
in
Iran, huge gaps in financial accountability of weapon
purchases, lots of missing money and missing weapons and
Bush today at Wright
Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton said, "My party is
the party of security." Could it be that Bush Business today
has moved from just making money to insane ideas about using
nukes?

 Voter
Fraud by
Rush Limbaugh - Will They Prosecute?
There are two things about this report below I
wish to comment on. First of all, let's by all means
send Rush to jail for encouraging voter fraud and
perjury on innocent people who somehow believe the BS
that Rush puts out every day. There is an investigation
going on in
Ohio about voter fraud. It is against the law to
swear your loyalty to the Democratic Party under oath
while intending to influence a vote while being a member
of another political party.
Rush Limbaugh urged everyone to cross over and
vote for Hillary in
Ohio and
Texas,
in effect breaking election laws in
Ohio. Limbaugh not only should be punished but
also the stations in
Ohio who broadcast his plea without disclaimers
and that would be all, General Managers, CEOs, and
Program Directors they can all go to a prison in
Ohio..a private prison where meals are skimped
for profit, where guards don't have obey civil rights
laws and where torture is routinely practiced on
inmates, usually of color. Yes, this is a great idea.
Secondly, Rush may think he
is king but he is not, his ratings are flat and in many
markets fading, and have been for sometime. So he and
conservatives can kid themselves all they want, but Rush
is not the reason a million more Democrats voted in
Ohio than Republicans. The country has had it
with the double standard of cheap punks who are running
the Republican Party including the lying leaders, Bush,
Cheney, and McCain. They have killed a million Iraqis in
a war started under false pretense and the naive support
of ordinary Americans who tend to believe their leaders
despite the unbelievable tales they tell for power and
money. America is waking up and the Republican party is
now going to suffer the consequences of cynical behavior
praying on the fears of good Christian people who tend
to believe they (Republicans) are on God's side. I think
a reality check will show God was active in human
activities long before America existed.
Personally as a member of
the media for over four decades, I think many of the
"moves and shakers" need to leave with the discounted
Republican movement. These media kings in search of the
almighty dollar over ethics and morality are guilty of
treason. Their lock on the human emotions created by
what we refer to as the "buzz" of day to day media
blitzing must be broken and responsible ownership of TV
and radio stations, networks and even in my business,
Internet Broadcasting, must prevail or all is lost for
America. The hacks who promoted the propaganda of the
Nazi and Communist war machines are envious of how
corporate America and the hyper-conservative movement
has taken over America's independent thinkers.
God save the Queen? How
about God save us from ourselves. This is a time when
the golden rule is needed to be our guide; unfortunately
I see the power brokers unrepentant and conniving
waiting for the next chance to get what little change is
left in your jeans in the next round of fear mongering.
JibJab_Media makes the point that our media
associates and friends have indeed lost their way and we
as American citizens are the worse for it; in fact, we
may not survive much longer due to the neglect and
deceit of the corporate media -

  March 20,
2008 and the War in IRAQ is five years and still going
strong. Mission Accomplished?
Trillions of Dollars spent and Haliburton and friends
of Bush/Cheney have made 200 billion plus in profits. A
million Iraqi's have died, 4,000 combat deaths for US
Military and estimates of thousands more who were off the
rolls because they died later in military hospitals and were
not counted by the lying cheats who conned their way into
this phony war against terrorism. Fitting that today, a
video of
Osama Bin Laden appears threatening violence against
the
European Union. Bush Business is good and the script
writers of the greatest fictional account of a war on
Terrorism continues to grind out the saga of stories based
on half truths and fears generated by religious interest.
Bush Business remains strong even though the results of Bush
policies have weakened the financial structure of America
and the world. Will these corrupt unprincipled men remain
in power, passing the torch of greed and deceit to McCain
and company? Stay tuned, the epic battle of good vs. evil
continues ... |

Bush
Business is Good -
Well at least for some people. If you are a Gold merchant,
it almost made a thousand dollars an ounce today (3-13-08)
and Oil is $110.00 a barrel. Why? Because Bush Business
rules allow for excessive charges without penalty. It was
the way Dick and Dubya saw the world, and so far they are
getting their friends in high places richer than anyone
could have ever dreamed and oh yes, the Democrats can't even
stop Torture. Veto override failed in the Congress this
week. Will Bush and Cheney go quietly? Not if the money
people get their way. |

Federal employee opens letter containing powder,
threat to Bush
--Information about threat to president turned
over to
FBI 10 Mar 2008 (TX) There was no anthrax
or any other dangerous substance in an envelope that
was opened Monday in an office at the federal
building in downtown
Fort Worth, officials said. The letter did,
however, contain a threat to the president [sic] of
the United States, and it also warned that anthrax
was enclosed, officials said. Some powder fell out
of the letter, but a subsequent field test indicated
it was harmless. [See:

 Could
it Be that Mr. Bush has Finally Seen the Light?
(03-05-08) - It has been apparent for some
time that George W. Bush has failed once again in his career
choices. His presidency will go down in history as one of
the most lackluster and corrupt ever. Today, just before a
photo-op during which he would endorse John McCain and his
run for the Presidency, Bush decided to give a preview of
his next career change.
The question is simply, should
Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, or even George Burns be worried
about their dancing legacy?
Once again Bush is pursuing a
dance career after he has tried managing baseball teams,
drilling for oil, and running the great state of Texas - as
well as the good old USA - into a desperate situation
financially.
While George dances, his beloved
home state of Texas is turning from Red to Blue before his
eyes.
