Down In New Orleans...
2008-02-02 06:54:00
I would be presumptuous, indeed, to present myself against the distinguished gentlemen to whom you have listened if this were but a measuring of ability; but this is not a contest among persons. The humblest citizen in all the land when clad in the armor of a righteous cause is stronger than all the whole hosts of error that they can bring. I come to speak to you in defense of a cause as holy as the cause of liberty—the cause of humanity. When this debate is concluded, a motion will be made to lay upon the table the resolution offered in commendation of the administration and also the resolution in condemnation of the administration. I shall object to bringing this question down to a level of persons. The individual is but an atom; he is born, he acts, he dies; but principles are eternal; and this has been a contest of principle.Never before in the history of this country has there been witnessed such a contest as that through which we have passed. Never before in the history of A...

Talking WWIII Blues, John McCain Occupies the Dream Amplifier
2008-02-02 06:35:00
Some time ago a crazy dream came to me,I dreamt I was walkin' into World War Three,I went to the doctor the very next dayTo see what kinda words he could say.He said it was a bad dream.I wouldn't worry 'bout it none, though,They were my own dreams and they're only in my head.I said, "Hold it, Doc, a World War passed through my brain."He said, "Nurse, get your pad, this boy's insane,"He grabbed my arm, I said "Ouch!"As I landed on the psychiatric couch,He said, "Tell me about it."Well, the whole thing started at 3 o'clock fast,It was all over by quarter past.I was down in the sewer with some little loverWhen I peeked out from a manhole coverWondering who turned the lights on.Well, I got up and walked aroundAnd up and down the lonesome town.I stood a-wondering which way to go,I lit a cigarette on a parking meterAnd walked on down the road.It was a normal day.Well, I rung the fallout shelter bellAnd I leaned my head and I gave a yell,"Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man."A s...

Video of Levant's Interview with the Alberta Human Rights Commission
2008-01-15 23:02:00
[Although Levant was allowed to tape the session, he was forbidden from publishing it. He has chosen to publish it anyway.]Outspoken conservative commentator Ezra Levant will be before the Alberta Human Rights Commission Friday defending his former magazine's 2006 publication of a series of Danish cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.Members of Calgary's Muslim community were outraged when Levant's now-defunct publication, the Western Standard, published the cartoons in February 2006, shortly after their initial appearance in a Danish newspaper led to rioting and protests around the world.Syed Soharwardy, president of the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada, later filed a complaint against the Western Standard to the Alberta Human Rights Commission.Levant, the magazine's former publisher, will be on the hot seat today in Calgary during a commission investigation - a process he calls an "interrogation" - in which he'll be questioned extensively about the publication of the car...

Filipino Monkey. Yes. The Truth is Stranger than Fiction.
2008-01-12 02:16:00
Well that clears up one loose end.What has yet to be determined is how this audio track got placed on the iranian speedboat video track.Any takers?While we're at it, maybe someone could answer why after two days to analyze the situation, this particular mash-up was released.I gotta say. There's a part for Christian Slater in this story somewhere:)From the investigative reporters at the Navy Times.The threatening radio transmission heard at the end of a video showing harassing maneuvers by Iranian patrol boats in the Strait of Hormuz may have come from a locally famous heckler known among ship drivers as the “Filipino Monkey .”Several Navy ship drivers interviewed by Navy Times are raising the possibility that the Monkey, or an imitator, was indeed featured in that video.Rick Hoffman, a retired captain who commanded the cruiser Hue City and spent many of his 17 years at sea in the Gulf was subject to the renegade radio talker repeatedly, often without pause during the so-called...

Conspiracy Wearyist? Hormuz Was A PsyOp Aimed at the American People
2008-01-11 01:38:00
Known Facts1. Un-named Pentagon and Naval officials made a decision to combine this audio with this video.2. At the time they combined the video, said officials were still trying to determine if the transmission came from the speedboats or elsewhere. 3. The Fars news agency had said that the confrontation had been fabricated to present Iran as a threat to its neighbors before Mr. Bush’s trip so he could justify United States forces in the gulf.4. No explanations have been offered as to why the decision was made to combine audio of questionable provenance so as to create the impression of a dangerous situation.5. No mention is made by Naval or Pentagon officials of the fact that the US war ships were trolling very close to Iranian territory and were, in fact, in waters claimed by the Iranians as territorial.6. The press has breathlessly repeated assertions from un-named officials that the Naval commanders were on the verge of firing upon the speed boats. Not so. In its story cov...

More Bush Bungling Unveiled...
2008-01-10 21:36:00
Herr Busch smirked his way through a news conference intended to test the credibility of his manufactured Iranian speedboat incident. This raises many troubling questions. It turns out that the bomb threat may not have come from the boats, thus raising the question of who made the threats, and the US may have been intentionally provoking the confrontation by deliberately sailing in waters they know the Iranians' claim as territorial.Is Herr Busch's incompetence so bad they can no longer stage manage an incident better than this?The US Navy are now hedging their bets on their version of the incident:The Navy never said specifically where the voices came from, but many were left with the impression they had come from the speedboats because of the way the Navy footage was edited. Today, the spokesperson for the U.S. admiral in charge of the Fifth Fleet clarified to ABC News that the threat may have come from the Iranian boats, or it may have come from somewhere else.

George McGovern Gets His Peach On

Why I Believe Bush Must GoNixon Was Bad. These Guys Are Worse.By George McGovernSunday, January 6, 2008[excerpts]As we enter the eighth year of the Bush-Cheney administration, I have belatedly and painfully concluded that the only honorable course for me is to urge the impeachment of the president and the vice president.Bush and Cheney are clearly guilty of numerous impeachable offenses. They have repeatedly violated the Constitution. They have transgressed national and international law. They have lied to the American people time after time. Their conduct and their barbaric policies have reduced our beloved country to a historic low in the eyes of people around the world. These are truly "high crimes and misdemeanors," to use the constitutional standard.In a more fundamental sense, American democracy has been derailed throughout the Bush-Cheney regime. The dominant commitment of the administration has been a murderous, illegal, nonsensical war against Iraq. That irresponsible ventu...

Royal Pain in the Ass at 16000 Pennsylvania
2007-12-11 23:34:00
In a nutshell, these three Bush Administration legal propositions boil down to this:“I don’t have to follow my own rules, and I don’t have to tell you when I’m breaking them.”“I get to determine what my own powers are.”“The Department of Justice doesn’t tell me what the law is, I tell the Department of Justice what the law is.”When the Congress of the United States is willing to roll over for an unprincipled President, this is where you end up. We should not even be having this discussion. But here we are. I implore my colleagues: reject these feverish legal theories. I understand political loyalty, trust me, I do. But let us also be loyal to this great institution we serve in the legislative branch of our government. Let us also be loyal to the Constitution we took an oath to defend, from enemies foreign and domestic. And let us be loyal to the American people who live each day under our Constitution’s principles and protections.-Senator Sheldon Whitehouse on ...

It's Giuliani Time
2007-12-10 21:57:00
We look upon authority too often and focus over and over again, for 30 or 40 or 50 years, as if there is something wrong with authority. We see only the oppressive side of authority. Maybe it comes out of our history and our background. What we don't see is that freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do. Rudy Giuliani , March 20, 1994For a better understanding of what freedom looks like under Rudy, consider the case of Abner Louima.In 1997, 30-year-old Abner Louima was married, had one child, and had been living in Brooklyn, New York for the previous six years. Although he had trained as an electrical engineer in Haiti, Louima worked as a security guard in a water-and-sewage plant in Flatlands, Brooklyn.On August 9, 1997, Louima visited "Club Rendez-Vous", a popular nightcl...

Dirty Fucking Hippies Have a Point
2007-12-07 18:20:00
1967. The Grateful Dead talk about the hippies' rejection of the Greatest Generation's values and world view. They reject working for a paycheck, social, racial and global inequality. Frustrated by the world as they find it, they drop out.It's been going on in one form or another since the dawn of the time.The only thing that will reverse it is the inability of their withdrawl to be successful. Their inability to find the space and the financial means to achieve their goal. A small, local, peaceful community in which they are free to be themselves, free from the imposition of beliefs and goals which are not there own.In some ways, it is harder now, than it was then, financially, to withdraw from the world.Excellent piece.

It will not only be a long war, it will be a hard war. That is the basis on which we now lay all our plans. That is the yardstick by which we measure what we shall need and demand; money, materials, doubled and quadrupled production -- ever-increasing. The production must be not only for our own Army and Navy and air forces. It must reinforce the other armies and navies and air forces fighting the Nazis and the war lords of Japan throughout the Americas and throughout the world. I have been working today on the subject of production. Your Government has decided on two broad policies. The first is to speed up all existing production by working on a seven day week basis in every war industry, including the production of essential raw materials. The second policy, now being put into form, is to rush additions to the capacity of production by building more new plants, by adding to old plants, and by using the many smaller plants for war needs.

No More Bush!
2007-11-25 10:24:00
Australia's new leader Kevin Rudd vowed Sunday to tackle climate change and Iraq war policy, a day after sweeping veteran prime minister John Howard from power in a stunning election landslide.Rudd pledged to implement his campaign promises as a new era dawned for Australia after Saturday's poll ended nearly 12 years of conservative rule by US President George W. Bush 's closest remaining ally in the war in Iraq.Voters abandoned Howard, 68, who presided over a record economic boom and became Australia's second longest-serving leader, in a humiliating drubbing in which he is also likely to suffer the indignity of losing his parliamentary seat of 33 years.As the campaign hubris dissipated, Rudd, 50, said his centre-left Labor Party would immediately begin work on fulfilling campaign pledges, which included tackling global warming and withdrawing combat troops from Iraq.In his first press conference as leader, he also reached out to Australia's traditional allies, offered Bush an o...

Sweet Robotic Future & The Time of a Loving God
2007-11-25 02:54:00
George Weston was comfortable. It was a habit of his to be comfortable on Sunday afternoons. A good, hearty dinner below the hatches; a nice, soft, dilapidated couch on which to sprawl; a copy of the Time s; slippered feet and shirtless chest;--how could anyone help but be comfortable?He wasn't pleased, therefore, when his wife walked in. After ten years of married life, he still was so unutterably foolish as to love her, and there was no question that he was always glad to see her--still Sunday afternoons just after dinner were sacred to him and his idea of solid comfort was to be left in utter solitude for two or three hours. Consequently, he fixed his eye firmly upon the latest reports of the Lefebre-Yoshida expedition to Mars (this one was to take off from Lunar Base and might actually succeed) and pretended she wasn't there.Mrs. Weston waited patiently for two minutes, then impatiently for two more, and finally broke the silence."George!""Hmpph?""George, I say!

Why Milosevic, But Not Kissinger ?By Peter TatchellGuardianApril 25, 2002I lost my bid to have the former US secretary of state, Henry Kissinger, prosecuted on charges of war crimes in Indochina, but there is good reason to hope that a future, better prepared attempt might succeed.Refusing my application for an arrest warrant at Bow Street magistrates' court, Judge Nicholas Evans said he was not "presently" able to draft a "suitably precise charge" based on the evidence "of generalised allegations" that I had submitted. Judge Evans doubted whether I could produce more specific, admissible evidence. But his comments leave open the possibility that he might issue a warrant in the future - if I can produce stronger evidence of Kissinger's culpability in the killing, maiming, torture and forced relocation of civilian populations in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia in the late 60s and early 70s.It is now my intention to liaise with human rights lawyers and organisations in the United States, ...

Strong Smelling Man
2007-11-21 21:13:00
He loves to cuss, gets a jolly when a mountain biker wipes out trying to keep up with him, and now we're learning that the first frat boy loves flatulence jokes. A top insider let that slip when explaining why President Bush is paranoid around women, always worried about his behavior. But he's still a funny, earthy guy who, for example, can't get enough of fart jokes. He's also known to cut a few for laughs, especially when greeting new young aides, but forget about getting people to gas about that.US News & World Report 8/2006Bob Woodward reports in his new book, State of Denial, that President Bush loves to swap fart jokes with Karl Rove. Before a morning senior staff meeting in 2005, Woodward reports, Bush schemed to have Rove sit in a chair that triggered some sort of high-tech whoopee cushion activated by remote control. The prank was postponed in deference to news of the al-Qaida bombings in London. When the gag was carried out two weeks later, the room erupted in riotous ...

Hmmmm.... A Cloud of Hate You Say?
2007-11-18 08:32:00
THE CLOUD OF HATE Muffled drums beat out a nerve-scratching rhythm and red lights flickered hypnotically in the underground Temple of Hate s, where five thousand ragged worshipers knelt and abased themselves and ecstatically pressed foreheads against the cold and gritty cobbles as the trance took hold and the human venom rose in them. The drumbeat was low. And save for snarls and mewlings, the inner pulsing was inaudible. Yet together they made a hellish vibration which threatened to shake the city and land of Lankhmar and the whole world of Nehwon. Lankhmar had been at peace for many moons and so the hates were greater. Tonight, furthermore, at a spot halfway across the city. Lankhmar's black-togaed nobility celebrated with merriment and feasting and twinkling dance the betrothal of their Overlord's daughter to the Prince of Ilthmar, and so the hates were redoubled. The single-halled subterranean temple was so long and wide and at the same time so irregularly planted with thick pi...
