Good morning Dem's,...Repost

So, the wanna-be drug store cowboy sounded off in Israel yesterday about Obama being willing to negotiate with Iran. Considering Bush's record of lying failure in everything he has touched, it is the height of arrogance for him to comment on anything. If he were wise, he would just keep quiet until he is out of office and then slink off to Paraguay.

The fact that the doddering old fool from Arizona chose to jump in after Bush's comments, only shows that he is again tying himself to Bush. That makes them both what? THE FAILURE TWINS!

I received a email this am from moveon.org. It seems that the SwiftBoat vets are saying they are really going to swiftboat Obama. Big deal! We expect that. Obama just keeps rising above it. Hillary came to his defense BTW. Nice.

All, in all, the Republicans still do not understand their failure, they again underestimate the bubbling anger of the public.

I look forward to the campaign, it's going to be real fun.

It's going to be a wipe out for the Rethuglicans, all up and down the ticket starting with the presidency.

In Texas, Rick Noreiga only trails Senator Cornpone by 4 points. Any small contribution you might make to Rick's campaign will be appreciated.

The fact that Bush took that cheap, cowardly shot at Obama started my day off well. I see the start of the death throes of Bush and his accomplishes already!

Senator Cornyn (Cornpone) commented on the court decision in California. Said he thought we need a national amendment banning same sex marriage. Cornpone, with that slick tupe' he wears has been a Bush enabler and boot licker since day one!

We have a rally good, honest man running against Cornpone here in Texas. A State Senator who served in Afghanistan. Rick Noriega. Any small contribution you can make to his campaign will be greatly appreciated and you will be helping to get rid of a true Republican carpet bagger and strike a blow for real Democracy.

Morning JohnBoy,

We had a good rain most of yesterday morning then sprinkles until well into the evening.

That disgusting POS who calls himself our president is done. He should just stay with his buddies in saudi aragheadiaia. In fact we should order the pilot of air force one to leave him in the middle east and fly OUR plane back empty.

His buddy bin laden is speaking out again. It seems he does this every election cycle just to make sure cheney's enablers are reelected.

I see through these bastards. Reopen the 9/11 investigation.

Here locally, a nice lady who worked for Enron got a check for $726 from a settlement on a class action lawsuit. She had lost 10's of thousands of dollars of retirement benefits.

Enron sent her a letter demanding the $726 back. Said they made a mistake.

When asked by a local TV reporter what she thought of the situation she replied,
"First they kick you in the ass, then they tell you to bend over so they can kick you in the ass again!"

This is not an isolated situation. Many former Enron employees have received similar letters from Enron. Good luck on getting that money back!

That cornpone sounds like a typical asshole repuke.
I am fed up with these people. It is none of their damn business what gay people do. As far as I am concerned, they are some of the best people we have around. They work hard and are really sensitive to people's needs unlike the so-called "compassionate conservatives".

Good morning JohnE, we ave had some of your rain over here too. Bush is a disaster that our grrandchildren will be paying the price for.

BTW, what is the situation on water in your area? Here, in parts of Texas, we have some sort of super water district where you can't even drill water wells on your own property. If I ever get enough money to move out of "Bush" country, I want to make sure my children don't have to buy water from Bush's aquifer in Paraguay.

first?

Enron is another story. They really screwed the state and the people of Califrnia. I'll bet the family's of lay and that other criminal have millions stashed away in a bank in Switzerland or the Cayman Islands but the neocon judges and attorneys will not go after this money. Every penny of the money should be recovered and distributed first of all the the pensioneers then to California. I'll bet the money would more than cover the losses from these bastard neocon bush and cheney buddies.

These judges need to be REMOVED.

Good morning, ALL!

Thank you, Michael.

geez zero to seven that fast!

Matthews skewering a repub pundit who has no knowledge of history.

Biden rips bush a new one.

Kerry rips bush a second new one.

and a third one in writing.

JohnBoy,

The state water people came out the other day and checked my well. They found that my standing water level is 340 feet (the well is 495 feet deep. The water infiltrates the fractures and runs under my propery from the mountains behind me.

They had a request from the railroad who wants to pump a well about a mile away and use the water for about two years to dust the roads while they build a second bridge up Abo Canyon. The state was checking all wells within a one mile radius before the issue a permit. They plan to run the information through a computer program to try to predict the drawdown. If it is too much then they will tell the railroad no.

It sounds like they are going to the tell the railroad no. What a waste of good water. The railroad can use a liquid (lignon sulfonate) left over from paper pulp manufacture. It provides really good dust control qualities and hardens the surface like asphalt. It is much better than water.

Another item of local interest only.
Spring Independent School District reported that a school employee took a school lap top computer home with her. Instead of locking it in the truck of her car out of sight, she left it in the passenger compartment while she stopped and went into a "business."

Someone broke into her car and stole the computer which contained the tax scores, names, social security numbers, gender, home address on some thing like 8000 students.

Now, the school district has sent home a letter on the situation advising the parents to contact all three of the major credit agencies. etc. etc. It seems to me that since the school districts employee, through her misfeasance, should do all the clerical work necessary to mitigate this problem.

The Spring School District is one of the best in the Houston area. The district didn't have any trouble getting a bond issue for hundreds of millions of dollars approved to keep providing good schools. The property owners and parents have done their job, the school district should step up and do it's job in this situation it created.

Morning DooBee and Veneita.

cheney is awfully quiet this week. What, is he out doing a fifty state campaign for bush's twin?

This is so funny! Someone needs to find and roll that beautiful bean footage!

Hypocrisy on Hamas
McCain Was for Talking Before He Was Against It
By James P. Rubin
Friday, May 16, 2008; Page A19

But given his own position on Hamas, McCain is the last politician who should be attacking Obama. Two years ago, just after Hamas won the Palestinian parliamentary elections, I interviewed McCain for the British network Sky News's "World News Tonight" program. Here is the crucial part of our exchange:

I asked: "Do you think that American diplomats should be operating the way they have in the past, working with the Palestinian government if Hamas is now in charge?"

McCain answered: "They're the government; sooner or later we are going to have to deal with them, one way or another, and I understand why this administration and previous administrations had such antipathy towards Hamas because of their dedication to violence and the things that they not only espouse but practice, so . . . but it's a new reality in the Middle East. I think the lesson is people want security and a decent life and decent future, that they want democracy. Fatah was not giving them that."

The writer, an adjunct professor at Columbia University's School of International Affairs, was an assistant secretary of state and the State Department's chief spokesman during the Clinton administration.

Well, off to work.

Bush was taking a huge hit this morning on C-spann. One man said he isn't the pres of america, he acts more like the pres. of the republican party.

On the gay marriage issue, I thought I heard the mayor of San Fran say that the state supreme court was made up of 6 republican appointments. Could this be true. If so, with a republican govenor this is a "republican thing." Neither of our candidates was for it.

The timing couldn't be worse, and is suspect, just when you got people looking at their economic futures this republican court votes for gay marriage. Now will they try to get it on the ballot again in the fall. We can't let them hi-jack another election on this issue.

Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John McCain were walking down the street, Hilary was carrying a bowling ball, Barack was carrying a pool cue, and McCain was carrying a car door.
When asked why she was carrying a bowling ball, Hilary replied,” When I feel like chilling , I get together with family and friends and go bowling.”
Barack answered similarly,” When I feel like chilling I get together with family and friends and shoot some billiards.”
McCain said, “When I feel like chilling, I roll down my window.”

Thanks for the links. Bush is such a despicable excuse for a leader of the American People.

I listened to Pastor Ron Parsley briefly yesterday. He was ranting about "the left wing" blogs not quoting him correctly. Apparently he reads some of our blogs and is pretty thin skinned. His selling "miracle cures" in return for contributions reminds me of the church in the middle ages selling "dispensations" to the gullible to get their parents out of purgatory. Jesus warned of ravening wolves in sheep's clothing, think about that Rod!

take the quick vote

Kelsi needs the computer, BBS

Sen. Jim Webb is going to be on 'Press the Meathead with Timmeh' this Sunday. I wonder how he feels about Chimpy's little political speech in Israel? It should be interesting.

Saudi Arabia, Bush, and the Iraq War

Since a time shortly following our invasion of Iraq, U.S. forces began encountering foreign fighters from within Saudi Arabia. In fact, those Saudi fighters were encountered at far greater a rate than any other foriegn fighter inside Iraq.

This was a problem for us in Iraq. A far greater problem than we now face because with these fighters came the bulk of our enemies bomb making materials. And the roadside bombs made from these materials, remain the most deadly piece of armerment encountered by our troops in Iraq.

Now, we have found a way to improve relations with this group in Iraq. Today, we refer to them as Sunni, completely ignoring where they've come from. These are the Sunni fighters who recently agreed to refocus their attacks on Shia forces alone.

Iran, Bush, and the Iraq War

Before the Iraq war began, Iran expressed concerns. They cited the proximity of fighting in Afghanistan and a move into Iraq that would sandwich their nation between two U.S. led wars. Their concern was understandable after years of bad blood shared between our nations.

Still, foreign fighters from within Iran have trickled across the border when compared with those coming from Saudi Arabia. They have been far less damaging, in spite of the fact that our interactions have been deadly. Also, the roadside bombs they brought with them have created far fewer casualties than those brought in by Saudi fighters.

A few years ago, a bi-partisan group known as the Iraq Study Group met to consider these facts and others in deciding where we should go next in Iraq. Their recommendation was to engage Iraq's neighbors. George Bush ignored their recommendation.

Since that time our problems with Iran have worsened. The Bush administration has escalated tensions with many threats, threats not made against Saudi Arabia in spite of their more deadly presence in Iraq. And, since that time, our military has encountered Iranians in Iraq more often, not less often.

The Bush administration advertizes its actions as helpful to our troops in Iraq, and yet more die because of their actions. The Bush administration advertizes its actions as productive in resolving our conflicts, and yet our conflicts escalate. The Bush administration makes many promises which don't come to fruition.

Good Morning Democrats.

Democrats let US bring back our Constitutional homes blessed with Freedom and Democracy.

Lebanon, Bush, and the Iraq War

In Lebanon, Shia forces clash with Sunnis. Each receives support from without the country, the Shia through contacts with Shia communities elsewhere, including in Iran, and the Sunni from Sunni communities in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere.

Now, we had many years of peace in Lebanon before the 2006 attacks launched by Israel. And, while those attacks were not directly responsible for the escalation of tensions between Sunni and Shia there, the Bush sponsored foreign policy there did.

In 2006, the Bush administration extended its policy to confront Shia forces into Lebanon. This it disguised as aide for the Lebanese government reeling from recent attacks from Israel. This is a conflict that would not have occurred had it not been for the division of Shia and Sunni inside Iraq.

It's simple really. The Bush administration took sides with the most powerful force fighting us inside Iraq. They've appeased those forces in Iraq and appear to have begun assisting them elsewhere.

OK, I guess I can't read any newer posts unless / until I make a new one, so here goes.

This is the height of "OOPS!"

Tough Competition

Thaht's what they get by trying to move the convention as close to 9-11 as possible.

DPD,....Jim Webb would probably like to rip Bush's head off and show it to Cheney. But he won't, he'll just slice and dice the two up politically and give the carcases to the Iraqi's to do what ever they want with them.

You people are so full of sh^t. Have you no understanding of what is at stake here. When Edwards was out, you all had nice things to say to his supporters. You people have made so many of her supporters feel like you did not care about their votes. Her supporters have been characterized by the people supporting Obama as uneducated, racist, old hags. Well if your "MAN" (The only MAN who can unite America) does not feel like the 17 million uneducated, racist, old white women votes are important; don't get mad when a whole hell of lot of those votes are cast for someone else. Oh and by no means should any of you real true Democrats take responsibility for the role you yourself have played in alienating core constituents that have a long history of phone banking, fund raising, door knocking, and yes the most important- vote casting in support of the Democratic party- faithfully.
Take heart, I am sure you don't need us.

Good morning Marine, I have to leave soon, just wanted to say "Howdy!"

Good morning,

Beggars, commies and losers at lifes lottery.

Good Morning
Just logged on and had to share
For the Hillary supporters who are rushing to McCains side, voting against their childrens future on so many levels, just by voting republican, but here he is on the one subject that should turn your stomach if nothing else does, because you all care about the way women and girls have been treated and FAMILY VALUES.

McCain on Women,

about 4 weeks ago , I asked my great friend in Arizona who is an ardent Hillary supporter , about the McCain /Clinton friendship. With her permission-----Here is part of her reply {she is an old white bitter, pissed off female}

Hillary and John friends?
Don’t you believe it sweety----all that posturing to get the McCain centrist votes, was purely to help her win against Obama. She will do almost anything to get to go at the republicans in the General---she has been planning a revenge for how they treated her, for 9 years. She has had 527’s lined up for just about as long.
I can not believe Obama is going to take this opportunity away from her. She completely counted on the black vote.
The best revenge ever for the way they treated her, and Bill, would be for her to win President of the United States 2008!!!!!!! She was going to disembo_wel McCain, or any other republican that they put against her.

Unfortunately, she can’t go after McCain for all his womanizing, like they did Bill, but at least Bill didn’t abandon Hillary for his fantasies.

Can you believe the republicans are running a self professed womanizer, adulterer, party animal on their “family values” ticket. Their whole line up, except Huckabee and Paul, were old adultering, womanizing white hairs. And there are still republicans that can’t get over Bill Clinton’s womanizing ways.

Politically, it is impossible to go after them in the media for any other reason. If she is campaigning against them, it would be EXPECTED, and cheered by over half the country. I feel so bad for her right now, and just contributed what will probably be my last contribution.

Here is an example of their friendship and just a tiny part of what this mother has been carrying.

They have been on the hard end of his behavior."
But only a few news outlets, like the Phoenix New Times in Arizona and the National Journal, that ran an Associated Press story reporting McCain's 1998 joke suggesting that Chelsea Clinton was ugly and Janet Reno and Hillary Clinton were lesbians.

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?" McCain said at a GOP fund-raiser in Washington. "Because Janet Reno is her father."
McCain apologized to the Clintons. But more recently, McCain said on Fox News, "You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the 1940s who is still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the face for it."
http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2006/7/5/00548.shtml

Mine
Yes, it is very clear how McCain feels about women and their keeping them “in their place”

As he laughs with his buddies about “beating the bitch” (that would be a highly valued woman Senator and top running candidate for President of the United States of America)

A book is coming out quoting him calling his wife a cu_nt and trollop in public.

He does not believe women should get the same pay for doing the same work as a man, (the women who are simply supporting their children, cannot possibly have the same value as a man, who may need to pay big money for a prostitute)

He wants to put pregnant women, (the ones who don’t have the money to take time off work and fly overseas), single moms struggling to support their children, in prison and put their then motherless, homeless children in orphanages,
but allows that it is o.k. if you have enough money to send your girlfriends, mistresses, wives, and daughters overseas to have abortions.
Of course, HE won’t be supporting these children, private corporations have been set in motion, and your taxes will have to be raised to give these corporations to house these children in orphanages.
FAMILY VALUES as long the tax payer is forking out the money.

It is well known that it is not a man he has cleaning his many toilets in his many mansions, it is a woman, it is “their place”

More will be revealed in the UPCOMING BOOK THE REAL MCCAIN

And if you think that might be not so good for your daughters future, Obama was born in Hawaii to parents attending a higher education facility and his father has family in Kenya. Can you believe that his dad left him at 2 years old to go onto further his education, and his white mom and grandmother raised him?

Posted by hope23 on May 16, 2008 at 09:46 AM

What are the shriekers going to do about the LARGER group of people who voted for Obama?

I wasn't aware that WV even HAD 17 million voters who voted for her. BTW, Hillary won the majority of votes of the people with high income and higher education in the WV Primary. She must be an "elitist".

After all this race baiting and "elitist latte drinking egg heads" crap that team Clinton has entered into the vocabulary does she really expect ANY of those people to vote for her? She'd better not count on getting a large turnout in the AA community.

Here's a clue, she was supposed to win that State by that margin. As was she supposed to win OH by 25% (it didn't happen), PA by 25% (it was 8.5%), and TX (she LOST).

Somebody is going to be the last one standing in Denver, (if this contest even lasts that long) and THAT is who I am voting for in November.

Kerry on cnn

Biden on cnn. This was powerful. It's unfortunate that these guys can't be who they are in these videos when they run for president.

What kind of man would go after the daughter of an opponent ( little girl), calling her ugly, as a way to win favor with his party?
What kind of party, would enjoy this denigration, and give more support because of it?

Answer: McCain felt he needed to destroy a little girl, and the republican party clapped.

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?" McCain said at a GOP fund-raiser in Washington. "Because Janet Reno is her father." McCain apologized to the Clintons.

g'morning, high. here's an article i thought you might want to take a look at. we went through this with malathion and the apple maggot years ago with some communities declaring themselves as 'spray free zones'. also, individuals would put 'no spray' signs at the road along side their property. anyway, good luck!

The full report is available on the ISIS website. Northern California is in the grip of a horrific aerial spray programme designed to eradicate an insect pest, Epiphyas postvittana, the light brown apple moth. The residents living in or near the spray deserve the full story of the pesticide spray mixture.

ISIS Press Release 16/05/08
Sex Hormones and City Life
Is it safe to douse cities with synthetic pheromones? Prof. Joe Cummins
and Sam Burcher

A fully referenced version of this report is posted on ISIS members’ website. Details here.
http://www.i-sis.org.uk/sexHormonesInCityLife.php

Conclusion:The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDPR) assurances unreliable - synthetic pheromones lack adequate study It appears that the CDPR has not been entirely honest in expressing their opinion of the aerial spray mixture. They seem to have neglected the well documented toxicity of some spray additives. This has resulted in the reluctance to fully evaluate the impact of the aerial spray on a
very large population exposed to the spray. The evidence on the toxicity of the spray additives was clear while the toxicity of the synthetic pheromones is not yet thoroughly studied. There is a growing body of evidence indicating that the synthetic insect pheromones may also be active in mammals and probably in humans. In the fullness of time, it is likely that the synthetic insect hormones will be seen to have behavioural and cellular impacts on vertebrates and humans. Presently, these impacts have been documented in a few cases, but the field is advancing rapidly. Meanwhile, bureaucrats are using the absence of
evidence as evidence of the absence of harm.

cheers

Democrats' Energy Plan: Tax, Sue, and Investigate
By John Cornyn

More than two years ago, now-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her Democratic colleagues promised what they called a “common sense” energy plan to bring down prices at the gas pump. Since that time, the average cost of a gallon of gas has soared from $2.33 to $3.62, an all-time high.

Today, 744 days later, congressional Democrats finally unveiled their grand proposal to the American people.

To most Americans, addressing rising energy prices might include at least a bow to the law of supply and demand. It might contain some true common sense ideas such as stepped-up exploration, added domestic refinery capacity, or other measures to increase U.S. energy and reduce dependence on foreign supplies.

But Democrats made clear they have other priorities. They want to tax, sue and investigate their way out of this problem.

Unfortunately, their agenda will do nothing significant to increase the supply and reduce the price of gasoline in America.

Hi- just a hit and run in case Venieta hasn't posted this yet.http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080516/ap_on_go_co/media_ownership

On the Washington Journal on C-span today, a caller said that the military is deploying for 15 - 18 month lengths and when asked how long she will be deployed she said she didn't know she'd have to see AFTER THE AIR STRIKES IN IRAN HAPPEN IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS!

Think about it, Bush could really be going all over the world cutting deals about this. Fallon, the only reasonable general, standing in the way of this, has been fired. Is it true that the republicans putlaws on the books that say the Pres. can stop the election in a time of war? Remeber on Larry King when Jena said she didn't know who she would be voting for? She married a former aide to Rove, could it be she knows something we don't? What the F could we do about it if it came to this? If we started Impeachment proceedures now, could that stop anything?

Set your TiVo for noon (EDT). I'm sure the cable channels will cover this.

Obama To Respond Forcefully To Bush's Attacks Today

"What you're going to hear is a very vigorous response to what was an outrageous, unprecedented, and divisive attack from President Bush yesterday,"

(Obama foreign policy adviser Susan Rice)

check out Think Progress coverage of mccain's hamas remark.

May he say this on the Wednesday after the November elections.

President Bush accepted the stunning election results in the Palestinian territories yesterday with a conciliatory tone, saying the landslide victory of the militant Islamic group Hamas was rejection of the "status quo" and a repudiation of the "old guard" that had failed to provide honest government and services.

"There's something healthy about a system that does that," Bush said at a news conference.

guess who said

But the Bush administration is not running for anything in 2006 and, as a second-term president, George W. Bush need not succumb to political pressure. That means he should give far more weight to what Hamas does and less to what it says. The Israelis, most notably Minister of Defense Shaul Mofaz, say that Hamas has behaved “responsibly” since the election. In fact, Hamas has clamped down on terrorism against Israelis since the Palestinian ceasefire was agreed to last January.

I certainly hope that the mcCainStream Media finally points out the fact that the quote taken from the senator years ago about talking with Hitler was from a REPUBLICAN senator...from the great state of Idaho. He was a well-liked politician here who also was a huge fan of Communism.

Cate
That is some of the greatest news and a big step forward for freedom

"In recent years, we have seen an increase in coarse and violent programming, coupled with a decrease in local news and hard-hitting journalism," Inouye said Thursday night. "To say these trends are not in the best interest of the American people, and especially our youngest citizens, is clearly an understatement."

Obama issued a statement supporting the vote.

"Today the Senate stood up to Washington special interests by voting to reverse the FCC's disappointing media consolidation rules that I have fought against," he said. "Our nation's media market must reflect the diverse voices of our population, and it is essential that the FCC promotes the public interest and diversity in ownership."

Thank you!

In an amazing turn of events, the House of Representatives today voted AGAINST the supplemental funding for the war in Iraq!!

The bill would have provided $166 billion in war funding, the largest single provision since the war started in 2003. In a move that no one expected, dozens of Republicans voted "present," which is the same as abstaining on the vote. This meant that the 149 NO votes were enough to defeat the bill. (141 votes were cast in favor.)

This is a tremendous victory for the antiwar movement. The hard work of people all around the country secured those 149 clear NO votes. Click here for the roll call to see how your representative voted.

But our work is far from over.

The bill now moves to the Senate, where we can expect an attempt to add the war funding back into the bill. After that, the bill will go to a conference committee, then back for a re-vote in both the House and the Senate. That means we need to keep up the pressure on both the House and the Senate.

Here's what you can do:

Thanks Dems!

__________________________________________

I have been saying since Bush signed his executive order saying he could declare martial law unilaterally, without permission from anyone, and all that entails, to stop all elections and remain the president, because we are at war, even a war CREATED by him.

My questions here are:

1. Where does he think he is going to get enough military? Would our National Guard really follow his orders and turn on the American People?

2. What are the majority of the American people (the 80% that hate Bush and his policys), going to actually DO if this happens?

3. I know the DNC is aware of this possiblity---do you think they are prepared?

Even though I think this was the plan, I now believe that the political "climate" has changed so much, that the neocons won't attempt it.

I think the country and even the media has turned so unexpectantly against them, and transparency has become the name of the game, that they have had to change their plans to pull this off.

the axis of evil has been shown to be the created propoganda of PNAC, and as displayed by bush in Israel, he alone is still living in this bubble.

Is Senator Barack Obama Truly Too Elite To Be Elected President? -- John Dean

In an earlier column, I raised the matter of whether, and how, Senator Barack Obama's conspicuous intelligence may act as a barrier to his being elected president. I am returning to that subject now because it is clear, as the presidential primaries come to a close and the presumptive nominees – Obama for the Democrats, and Senator John McCain for the Republicans – begin their efforts to define each other for the general election, that this is going to be an issue.

As I noted in my prior piece, Republicans have consciously and consistently run presidential campaigns portraying their candidates as smart enough to be president, yet a far cry from the kinds of 쬩beralsnd 쩮tellectual elitistsith whom most Americans would shrink from sharing a few beers. Of course, Republicans simultaneously have labeled their Democratic opponents as just that kind of far-left elitist.

Frankly, I have been waiting for this GOP anti-intellectual strategy to backfire, and for Americans to declare that they have had enough of these efforts to dumb down the presidency. After all, eight years of President George W. Bush's anti-intellectual stance, staggering inarticulateness, and clear pattern of incompetence may well encourage Americans to vote for a chief executive/commander-in-chief with brainpower commensurate with the demands of the job.

For the moment, though, Republicans are busy placing Senator Obama in this liberal, intellectual, elitist mold, and they are succeeding. Americans have not yet fought back forcefully, insisting that they want the kind of intelligent, educated president they deserve.

REpublicans will once again attempt to dumb down the office of President

CNN just reported that Saudi Arabia has told Chimpy to "shove it". They WILL NOT increase oil production just to make him and his doppelganger look good right before the election. No more replay of 2006 at the pump.

Yesterday I went past a gas station at 7ish AM and the price was $4.029. At 2:30PM I went past the same one and it was $4.079. (For regular at the cheap, off brand place, not even a major company).

I guess someone has to call Dr. Evil and ask permission to put the squeeze on Exxon / Mobil.

Which is worse, saying a dismissive sexist statement or in your apology one not recognizing that it is a dismissive sexist statement you call “all kinds of people”(women)?
Barack Obama has personally apologized to a female television reporter for calling her "sweetie", chalking the name up to a "bad habit".
Obama's encounter with Peggy Agar, a reporter at WXYZ network in Detroit, was the second time in two months that he raised eyebrows by calling a woman "sweetie".
The row began when Agar asked the Democratic presidential frontrunner, who is putting the finishing touches on a successful campaign against Hillary Clinton, how he would help American autoworkers.
"Hold on one second there, sweetie," Obama told her, adding that she could ask him the question at a press briefing after his tour of the Chrysler auto plant in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
Agar never got her opportunity. On that night's local news broadcast, she quipped: "This sweetie never did get an answer to the question."
But Obama moved quickly to mend hurt feelings by leaving a voicemail on the reporter's cell phone while she was sleeping after an early morning shift.
"I'm calling to apologize on two fronts. One was, you didn't get your question answered … I broke my word. I apologize for that and I will make up for it," Obama said.
"Second apology is for using the word 'sweetie'," he continued. "That's a bad habit of mine. I do it sometimes with all kinds of people. I mean no disrespect and so I am duly chastened on that front."

Shimon Peres sees eco-fuel fighting "terror"
Mon May 5, 2008 7:19pm BST

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli President Shimon Peres on Monday hailed his country's new weapon against the threat of "terrorism" from its Middle East neighbors -- the electric car.

Outlining Israel's development priorities in an address to foreign journalists to mark this week's 60th anniversary of statehood, Peres said reducing global dependence on oil would curb oil-producing states' ability to fund Israel's enemies.

"Oil ... is not only polluting the air, it is also promoting terror," said the 84-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner, who has long promoted Israel's now powerful high-tech industries.

Peres argued that manifold increases in oil prices in recent years had contributed to a rise in financing for terrorism in the Middle East, and said an Israeli project to design a green car run on batteries, as well as plans to develop solar power, would in turn hit oil producing countries' budgets.

"We are not going to fight the producers of oil," he said. "But we are going to introduce alternatives."

The McCain campaign said Friday that his position had remained consistent: no dialogue with rogue or suspected terrorist nations or parties without pre-conditions.

Electricity: Fuel of the Future

Source: Stanford Daily
[May 08, 2008]

SYNOPSIS: Not only does electricity meet the needs of the transportation sector, it triumphs over both biofuels and gasoline in all relevant metrics.

By Nick Enge

“America is addicted to oil,” admitted President Bush in his 2006 State of the Union address. Petroleum accounts for 40 percent of all energy use in the United States today, and a whopping 96 percent of U.S. transportation energy. Our addiction is a major contributor to our economic problems (the deficit, high product prices), our social problems (terrorism, war) and our environmental problems (resource depletion, climate change). If we want any chance at continued prosperity in the future, we will need to free ourselves from oil.

In order to break our addiction to this admittedly awe-inspiring substance, we will need a swift economy-wide fuel shift toward an energy resource that is domestic, efficient, economic and clean. Despite the hype around biofuels, the only fuel that truly meets these needs is electricity.

I really hope that somebody can get Bush to think for a change.
This country is not in any kind of mood for that idiot to suspend the elections.
There are too many people on both sides of the fence who would love to see him go, feet first if necessary.
Bush cannot depend on the loyalty of the military. They swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States against ALL enemies both foreign and DOMESTIC. Bush has already shown his disrespect for the Constitution. I'd guess all his yes-men would have to circle the White House, against the rest of the military, and the betrayed veterans.
As for the National Guard, there are already state governors who are protesting his misuse of the Guard. They would demand that the Guard return to their home states, I don't see them riding to Bush's rescue.
Then there's the young people, who are already primed for change. There would be riots in the streets like you wouldn't believe, and I'd bet the cops would be on their side this time.
It would be like a big spring uncoiling, who knows where it would fly.
My Mom's parents came to the US to escape the Mexican Revolutionaries in 1914. I don't really want to have to move back there to escape a revolution here.
I'm not discounting anything, though, because right from the get-go when Bush went into Iraq after being told that it was a stupid idea, Dubya has made really dumb decisions right down the line.
I wouldn't put it past him to do the dumbest thing ever before he leaves (or is dragged out of) office.

Good afternoon, all.

John Boy,

Then we just counter Cornyn by asking why the ERA hasn't been ratified by the Republicans in the last eight years.

That should take care of the working women's vote that the GOP is trying to target this year and make everyone question why Republicans don't want to fix any real problems.

All these GOP incompents do is try to divert attention from their failures to perform the simplest governmenatal tasks by introducing fake issues.

Americans are pissed with these GOP jerks trying to evade responsibility for their actions. They're incompetent cowards who have no answers, so they continually hiding behind Jesus when they screw up.

Jesus isn't going to save them either come November. Christians are tired of Republicans using the Lord as a political pawn. Even evangelicals have moved on to advocating a decidedly Democratic agenda.

And why has this nation ratified the ERA? What's wrong with it? I want some answers from the RNC. Let's not let them backpedal any longer of things like this.

He's probably considering what the families of dead or injured soldiers would think if they saw the commander in chief performing such tasks. By kissing the asses of the oil sheiks he is attempting to show some solidarity with those poor families. Now, since those sheiks merely patted him on the head and sent him to eat at the children's table, lil' Bush will likely continue his showing of solidarity by riding a camel.

BINGO! I've been saying for some time that the first thing out of the new President's mouth during the inaugural speech should be "take that out of mothballs, dust it off and have it on my desk by next Monday. I'll sign it that day."

No need to tinker with it, no need for any "debate". It would have been passed and ratified years ago except Phyllis Schlafly got the Pugs in the IL Senate to doom it. IL was the ONLY Northern State not to approve it, and it only lost by 1 state. Let the Chamber of Commerce howl.

The second and third things should be to bust up the media conglomerates, and take all that friggin' "medicine advertising" off the tube. The networks will howl, but let them howl all they want. They had 30 years of free reign, and now it's time to take the keys away from the irresponsible teenager, so to speak.

Posted by TomN on May 16, 2008 at 01:17 PM

Because of the deteriorated condition of our national electric grid, if we are to rapidly shift more toward electricity, generating sources will almost certainly need to be of a more local rather than regional nature. Currently, considering only replacing internal combustion engines in cars, the equivalent of almost 3 times the current national electric production capacity would be required. We need immediate legislation requiring the imposition of conservation measures if we are to have any 'breathing' room to allow for alternative sources to come on line before our current situation becomes a catastrophy. I would hope Congress looks seriously and quickly at such remidies as conservation pricing where 'the more you use, the more you pay', reduced national speed limit with a precentage of fines going to fund alternative energy developement, mandatory 'green zones' within major metropolitan areas, major expansion of public mass transit and national passenger rail systems, and a 'carbon tax'. We can not continue throwing our country and its hard working people into the insatiable stomach of Big Oil.

Blue,

That's what they call it...misleading? Not a lie.

So then it's true and McCain is backpedalling. Typical for every Republican...even the self-described mavericks.

bbl.

There is NOTHING in the Constitution of the United States which gives the president any right to suspend the elections presidential or legislative.
The Constitution DOES state that the president must swear (or affirm) to }"TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY PRESERVE PROTECT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES".
The Constitution also states that the president "SHALL TAKE CARE THAT ALL LAWS SHALL BE FAITHFULLY EXECUTED."
My favorite the president, vice president and all civil officers SHALL be removed from office on impeachment for TREASON, BRIBERY, AND OTHER HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS."
BUT, and it's a biggy here. Section I states with NO uncertainty that "He shall hold office for A TERM OF FOUR YEARS." No ifs ands nor buts. FOUR YEARS!
Amendment XX to the Constitution states quite firmly that "The term of the president and the vice president SHALL END AT NOON ON THE 20TH DAY OF JANUARY ... of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified."
Amendment XXII to the Constitution states "NO PERSON SHALL BE ELECTED TO THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT MORE THAN TWICE...." Again no ifs ands nor buts.
In other words, no matter what powers Bush falsely claims to have or what machinations he tries, at the stroke of noon on the 20th of January 2009, Bush is out of here, and if he tries to stay longer, the Secret Service, the Capitol Police, or for that matter, any citizen of the United States can arrest him and frog march his butt out of the White House and into the nearest hoosegow, and if he tries to resist arrest deal with him accordingly.

It is the same reason I kept my dinasour analog cell phone as long as I could---it didn't have a tracking devise imbedded in it.

Also, considering the deteriorated condition of our electrical grid, we need to look at subsidizing the installation of wind/solar generation for homes, farms, and community government, hospitals, and small businesses.
By installing grid tied solar with battery backups, such entities can pay for their solar installations in reduced power bills, and also have emergency power available when the grid crashes.
Electrical power should not be in the hands of the few.
The Rural Electrification Act of the Depression era brought power to farms and small towns that the major power companies snubbed. We have regressed to another era of Big Power, which (Enron being one of the worst cases) leads to abuse in this de-regulated climate. De-regulation has also lead to the deterioration of the grid, since many companies consider maintenance of their assets as a liability and not a means of continuing to profit farther into the future although at a slightly reduced rate.
Enough of this abouse!
Electrical power to the people!

White House Notebook: Bush a bit wary of drinking the water

On a sun-baked tour Thursday of an ancient Israeli fortress overlooking the Dead Sea, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert took a sip of water from a silver cup, then handed it to President Bush.

Bush looked into the cup, then quickly set it down. He wasn't sure he should wet his lips with water from an unknown source.

He is up to something - sooo glad the GOP wanted America armed, we might just need to cling to those.

The ongoing race for the Democratic Presidential Nomination may be causing angst for party leaders, but the competition has been good for the Party label. In fact, the Democrats now have the largest partisan advantage over the Republicans since Rasmussen Reports began tracking this data on a monthly basis nearly six years ago.

During the month of April, 41.4% of Americans considered themselves to be Democrats. Just 31.4% said they were Republicans and 27.2% were not affiliated with either major party.

It must be difficult for republicans to conduct research when they have trouble getting their lard a--es through a series of tubes

FACT: There is no debate among scientists about the basic facts of global warming.

The most respected scientific bodies have stated unequivocally that global warming is occurring, and people are causing it by burning fossil fuels (like coal, oil and natural gas) and cutting down forests. The U.S. National Academy of Sciences, which in 2005 the White House called "the gold standard of objective scientific assessment," issued a joint statement with 10 other National Academies of Science saying "the scientific understanding of climate change is now sufficiently clear to justify nations taking prompt action. It is vital that all nations identify cost-effective steps that they can take now, to contribute to substantial and long-term reduction in net global greenhouse gas emissions." (Joint Statement of Science Academies: Global Response to Climate Change [PDF], 2005)

The only debate in the science community about global warming is about how much and how fast warming will continue as a result of heat-trapping emissions. Scientists have given a clear warning about global warming, and we have more than enough facts — about causes and fixes — to implement solutions right now.

The only issue left up in the air about global warming is whether or not republicans cold dark hearts will measure any change

Barack Obama wasn't alone in largely ignoring West Virginia's Democratic presidential primary. For political analysts, the contest that really resonated Tuesday night was in Mississippi.

McCain did, what Bush would not do, set an Iraqi withdrawal date. He had to after his Intelligence gave this 100 year statement of Mission Accomplished.

Kenneth Lay manipulated Enron with false Intelligence, so is Cheney & Co. doing the same with Chevron and His other Big Oil alliances? By propping up the spot market for Iraqi hidden reserves, then letting it implode like an Enron Bomb. Where is all the Iraqi oil going, America is not seeing it? Is this oil under OPEC control? It should not be.

It is like Halliburton tainted water disappearing in Enron Creative Accounting of Halliburton, Blackwater, and Republican Iraq War Contractors. In a fairy tale, it is like they haul in water and haul out oil. Maybe we need to make oil analysis like with DNA markers to see where the oil is coming from. If Congress had it own Intelligence, it could use its power to do its Homework to find out.

Since Al-Queda is supported within Saudi Arabia by Sunnis, and Hizbullah and Hamas by Shiite Iran. Are we taking Iraq from Sunni to Shiite control? That means Saudi Arabia will increase oil prices to fight Shiite control of the area and then Iran will increase the prices to fund Hizbullah and Hamas social satellite states around Sunni Saudi Arabia with America in the middle of its own Bush creation of Mission Accomplished Intelligence.

With Iraq receiving so much more for its Cheney inflated oil on the spot market, then it can take over all its infrastructure with the huge profit, so America can rebuild our own infrastructure that Bush neglected in his Mission Accomplished statements.

What do you have in a Bush Autocratic Republic? What you have is Republican fiscal responsible defections and Conservative human religions swearing off corporate government that merged a Royal religion.

They want God Bless America in US holding hands together and hugging each other as a nation called the United States of America.
