Whitehouse Doctor Sites New Study On War in Iraq
2008-06-07 20:29:00 Study confirms what has long believed to be true, Liberals have smaller breast then Conservatives. Can you tell how these women vote? (Hint the one on the right is a liberal) According to insurance call service technician, Robert Parker, small breasted women tend to be more liberal, sometimes even lesbians. "I have lived in Portland, OR for four years and I have only met two kinds of women," says Parker, "Lesbians and tinny titties." Parker who was kind enough to grant us interview on his lunch break elaborated further on his theory that is taking the country by storm. "You see I did not notice the phenomenon until visited home in Boise, suddenly I was surrounded by big breasted women." Parker goes on to explain that the combination of riding bikes and being a vegetarian not only makes a woman liberal it also gives them very small breasts. "Mr. Parker makes a very good point." Said Bush administration physici...

Dem Congressman Admits that Dems Lied About Stopping the War in Iraq to Win

UPDATE: Leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq NOT CAPTURED
2008-05-09 16:03:00 I posted yesterday that Abu Ayyub al-Masri had been nabbed and was off the street. Turns out, that story was not true: BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) — Abu Ayyub al-Masri, the head of al Qaeda in Iraq, has not been captured, a senior U.S. military official told CNN on Friday. Iraqi authorities said Thursday that al-Masri had been captured in Mosul. U.S. military officials were surprised about the report of Abu Ayyub al-Masri’s capture — first reported by Iraqi media and picked up by The Associated Press. And intelligence officials said they were skeptical, even though Iraqi officials said al-Masri was already in U.S. military custody. Al-Masri (”the Egyptian”), also known as Abu Hamza al-Muhajer, took the reins of the Iraqi al Qaeda offshoot in June 2006 after a U.S. missile strike killed his predecessor, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Since then, Iraqi officials have reported his death three times, his capture twice and a mortal wounding once. Too bad. I wonder how th...

Army Presents Iraqi School with Soccer Uniforms
2008-04-15 03:51:00 Soccer isn’t that big a deal in America, but in Iraq it is. Especially when you consider the Iraq soccer teams recent championship in the Asian Cup. Our soldiers over in Iraq noticed this love of soccer, and took some action: Soldiers from 3rd Platoon, Company A, 3rd Battalion, 7th Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, gave the local secondary school a boost in pursuit of their favorite sport. First Lt. Kevin Brown, a native of Indianapolis, along with members of his platoon, presented the headmaster of the Jurf Secondary School a complete set of soccer uniforms; enough to outfit a 16-man team, including a goalie and referee uniform. This is very important to the image of America in Iraq, and to counter anti-American sentiment. Plus, it is a very generous and giving thing to do: The platoon left the uniforms with the headmaster and returned the following day to take a team photo. Enthusiasm beamed on the faces of the young players as they hur...

ILWU to Shut Down West Coast Ports May 1 Demanding End to War in Iraq, Afgh
2008-03-06 23:27:00 by the Internationalist Group (via Stephen R. Argue) In a major step for the U.S. labor movement, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) has announced that it will shut down West Coast ports on May 1, to demand an immediate end to the war and occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan and the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the Middle East. In a February 22 letter to AFL-CIO president John Sweeney, ILWU International president Robert McEllrath reported that at a recent coast-wide union meeting, "One of the resolutions adopted by caucus delegates called on longshore workers to stop work during the day shift on May 1, 2008 to express their opposition to the war in Iraq." This is the first time in decades that an American union has decided to undertake industrial action against a U.S. war. It is doubly important that this mobilization of labor's power is to take place on May Day, the international workers day, which is not honored in the U.S. Moreover, the r...
Al-Sadr Comatose in Iran, Followers Vow Bloody Mess if Killed
2008-03-06 12:50:00 Word is that Al-Sadr got a hold of some bad fries at McDonals…ok, I made that up: Shi’ite cleric and leader Muqtada Al-Sadr was secretly transferred a few days ago from Iraq to Iran for hospitalization as he was comatose. It was reported that his illness resulted from food poisoning. His followers, being peaceful members of the Religion of Peace™, promised a “lake of blood” if anyone harms a hair on his head: ?In the event Sadr is harmed, Iraqi will them swim in a lake of blood,? warned Sheikh Sadeq al-Hasnawi. Hasnawi is one of the top officials leading the movement in Sadr?s absence. He said the cleric was currently in Iran ?studying and mediating? in the religious city of Qom which is the Iranian equivalent of Iraq?s holy city of Najaf where Shiite clerics are educated and trained. Hasnawi made the remarks in response to unconfirmed reports that Sadr was poisoned and was being hospitalized in Tehran. I guess they are denying that he is even sick, ...

News: The Cost of the War in Iraq: US$3 Trillion
2008-03-02 19:03:00 Before America invaded Iraq, officials in the Bush administration estimated the war might cost tens, at most hundreds, of billions of dollars. Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph E. Stiglitz and Linda J. Bilmes lay out very different figures in their new book, "The Three Trillion Dollar War: The True Cost of the Iraq Conflict." In it, they tally data on everything from troop pay to equipment to veteran's entitlements to larger social and economic costs, and examine how mismanagement, opaque accounting, and the privatization of the conflict have resulted in a megabill that Americans could be paying back for the next half-century.Stiglitz: "You can look at it and say, "This is a small percentage of a rich economy," or you can look at things like the proposed children's health-insurance program that was recently vetoed as too expensive?that can be measured in the cost of days of fighting in Iraq. Funding for a major autism research effort is equal to hours of fighting. Bush has said...
