Where is the Outrage?

In an interview with Bob Woodward of the Washington Post, Susan J. Crawford, has admitted that Mohammed al-Qahtani, the suspected 20th terrorist in the 9/11 attack on the US was brutally tortured while being detained in the Guantanamo Bay detention facility.  Brutally tortured by Americans while being held without regard for the Geneva Convention.
Tortured by [...]

Accountability on Horizon for Blackwater Murderers?

Defense Lawyers for the Blackwater 5 had thought to influence justice by having their clients surrender in Utah.  A state that traditionally supports the military, the lawyers for the defense hoped to find a sympathetic jury there.
Those hopes were squashed like bugs underfoot when a federal judge there ordered the defendants to [...]

Blackguards of Blackwater – Back in the News

Remember those 17 Iraqi civilians murdered by member of the ‘elite’ security force, Blackwater?  On September 16th, 2007, a firefight (if the strafing of civilians with automatic weapons can be considered a firefight!) in Nisour Square left 17 civilians dead, 14 of whom the FBI has determined were unjustifiable.
Well, the 5 Blackwater murderers [...]

Palin Pardons One While Hundreds go to Slaughter

You really have to wonder what she was thinking.  When President George H.W. Bush officially pardoned the first Thanksgiving turkey in 1989, it became a cute little White House tradition and photo op for the President and his family. 
A lighthearted moment for the 6 o’clock news normally filled with war and famine. [...]

Be Still My Heart

I’m so overjoyed I’m incapable of commenting!
Cheney, Gonzales indicted for alleged prisoner abuse
(CNN) – Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have been indicted on separate charges related to alleged prisoner abuse in federal detention centers, Willacy County, Texas, District Attorney Juan Angel Guerra told CNN Tuesday.
The indictment stems from [...]

Palin’s Failin’s – No Senate Seat For Sarah

I have been telling friends and family that once Ted Stevens was elected, Governor Palin was going to convince him to step down and hold a special election putting herself on the ballot.  That would satisfy the pundits who are calling for Ted’s resignation and satisfy the burning yearning in Sarah’s soul to [...]

"Kill Him" – Fact or Fiction?

We either have a faux Fox News story that it trying to diminish the impact of any "Incite to Riot" litigation against Palin or we have a cover-up.  What’s your guess??
Report: Secret Service Says ‘Kill Him’ Allegations at Palin Rally Unfounded
A Secret Service agent called charges that a man yelled "kill him" in [...]

Palin’s Failin’s – Her Response to Troopergate ‘An Embarrassment’

Yikes, I seem have been a little quick off the mark yesterday when I mentioned that the only real critical reports on the Republican VP candidate were from outside of our borders.  I’ll assume that Alaska is still part of the US for the purposes of this discussion, much to the chagrin of [...]

McCain Out of Touch

Presidential hopeful John McCain has shown time and again that he is far out of touch with the world as it is today.  He displays no clue as to the severity of our economic crisis, he has no idea where Spain is and that they are our ally in Afghanistan, and he has [...]

To Scare and Intimidate – Portland Officer on the Beat

I read this disturbing post on BoingBoing this morning about an Oregon man who was harassed by a Portland police officer for filming the officer on a public street.  The officer in question seized the camera and proceeded to give a ticket to the guy.
In the end, the District Attorney’s Office declined to [...]

Scientology to Stand Trial in France

Apparently the French government has decided that the Cult of $cientology is an ‘organized fraud’ and is "illegally practicing as pharmacists."  This is in keeping with France’s refusal to recognize the Cult as a religion.  Since the French government has declared that the Co$ is a commercial enterprise they are not bound by [...]

What you don’t know about $cientology

I stumbled across this interesting dissertation on the Cult of $cientology, L. Ron Hubbard’s delusions and the current ‘leaders’.  It’s one of the first articles I’ve seen that spells out the enormity of the con that they are running.

Colleges Tell RIAA to Kiss Off

With increasing frequency, colleges and universities around the country are telling the RIAA to find other ways to identify file sharing students.  In the past the colleges have collaborated with the RIAA (much like the French collaborated with the Nazis) when the burden was light.
But as the RIAA has increased their demands for [...]

Tom Cruise Named in $250M Lawsuit Against Scientology

Here’s an interesting turn of events, Tom Cruise is named as a defendant in a 250 million dollar lawsuit that cites the RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization) law as reason for the government to break up the Scientologists.  The claim by the plaintiff is that the CoS is a crime syndicate and [...]

Mukasey Keeps DoJ Like Gonzales Left It, Corrupt

I don’t quite understand the tactics of either the Congress or the Senate.  Rather than enjoy the next 178 days impeaching both of the liars and thieves we have in the White House, they would prefer to incessantly question someone like Michael Mukasey, the newest stain on the Justice Department.  Maybe they are [...]

Tom Cruise, Hollywood Has Been

Tom Cruise has recently been making a lot of headlines, but not as a headliner.  With his acting career overshadowed by his space alien affiliations, Tom has become just another aging, mediocre actor.
In the opinion of many, Tom’s career peaked with his 1983 portrayal of Joel Goodsen, the manic undies-clad pimp in Risky [...]

Bush to Attend Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Still President Bush has gone on record once again stating that he will, in fact, attend the opening ceremonies at the Beijing Olympics.  Despite harsh criticism from human rights groups world-wide, Bush has stated that he doesn’t need to skip the ceremonies to show his position on religious freedom and human rights.
I wonder [...]

Tee Ball at the White House

The world is going to hell in a hand-basket.  Oil prices at all time highs, the mortgage crisis forcing tens of thousands of American families out of their homes, and greedy Republican warmongers have embroiled us in an unwinnable war in Iraq.
Still President Bush has responded by hosting a Tee Ball game on [...]
