What exactly are you for?

Is cutting and pasting others' comments the only thing?

That is the extent of your comments for as long as I've been on here.

I don't really understand the constant cutting and pasting-as to what your are truly trying to accomplish on this site.

Seems like much wasted energy spent, much pentup anger, much hostility, much disregard for anothers' opinion,..for a mind that is closed to wanting to know information that you don't already know and don't agree with. (although I think it's called learning).

I guess I would just like to know if you've ever asked yourself that question?

Perhaps life is better spent-trying to build positive relations-giving off negativity both outwardly and inwardly-is not a healthy thing. Buying into the politics of fear is not healthy either-and just becasue you may be afraid-does not mean the rest of us are.

Please take this into consideration.

were not about WWII on Communism-it was about the time AFTER.

I was trying to point out that the US made some bad deals with the Russian Jews who migrated into our govt.and took over-hence the neocon views.

But instead of adopting the principles of a Democratic society-underground/illicit groups were formed (with govt. backing) sympathetic to Israel and continuing to replay WWII with revenge always on the forefront of the neocon mind.

These groups continue to operate in the govt.;Ledeen, Feith, Rhodes, Franklin, Wolfowitz-all at one time during their career having been accused of spying. Notice nothing has ever stuck?

Hmmmm. does that mean they are innocent?

nope.

Not when it's done by committees sympathetic to thier cause.

ADL in 93 was found to have over 12,000 files on groups around the nation-islamic, environmental...

which they were selling to the San Fran police and other govt agencies.

Ironic now, that AT&Ts' & Kleins' stories of NSA spying should also be in San Fran.-looks like the just found a way to legalize it under Cheney/neocons.

There are other instances too-of being undermined by those very neocon groups supposedly defending Americans.

The USS Liberty is another example-it was a spy ship-which Israel bombed. 2 other ships were in the vicinity-yet none came to the rescue of the Liberty-kept away on purpose?

What about the Jonathon Pollard case-where neocons were accused of selling military secrets to China?

Then there is the Franklin case of AIPAC that has been dragged out (on purpose)about Franklin knowingly passing off defense secrets (he worked in Feiths' office), not to mention the fact of using known liars like Chalabi,Curve Ball, and Ghorbanifar (used during Iran Contra)-as some sort of "credible" witness to Mideast secrets (Iraq & Iran).

Do you think it's a coincidence now-that Israel is now 4th in the world for munitions? Think the wars and Jonathon Pollards aren't all connected here-are not connected to the fact that the Likud movement has made Israel 4th in supplying the worlds' munitions?

Kills 2 birds with one stone now, doesn't it-perpetual war for more technological breakthrough to copy and bootleg-and revenge-doesn't matter against who anymore, the propaganda can take care of that after the fact.

this morning as I read C. Krauthammers' column.

It was too funny.

He starts out with:

When the Democratic presidential candidates pause from beating Hillary with a stick, they join in unison to pronounce the Democratic pieties, chief among which is that GWB has left our alliance in ruins..."

going on:

Sarkozys' trip earlier this month to the US was marked by a rousing speech to Congress in which he not only called America "the greatest nation in the world" (how many leaders of ANY country say that about another?)but pledged solidarity with the US on Afghanistan, Iran, Lebanon, the Middle East, and nuclear proliferation.

je'taime USA! Whoohoo!

I think my daughters' imitation of the Frenchs' elitist attitude is probabaly closer to the truth-(in her best French accent):

"you stupeeed Amereeecaaans...".

Then Kraut goes on about Angela Merkel:

In Germany, G. Shroeder is long gone. His successor is the decidedly pro-American Angela merkel, who concluded an unusually warm visit with Bush last week.

Did Kraut happen to catch the press interview with the 2 of them-which looked unusually strained-if not altogether constipated. In her defense, she was probably just on guard to know at what inopportune moment she was going to get the all-out shoulder massage,with the Cheney Vulcan death grip should she annouce more troop pullouts.

Then there's Brown of Australia-which K. says was unusually strong. Guess GW must have overlooked that fact that Australia does not want sanctions on Iran and wants a diplomatic approach.

The entire piece was just a bunch of self-imposed neocon asskissing supposedly by all of our allies.

It's too bad people can actually read and see the actual interviews with these leaders-who probably feel like they've been led down the proverbial "wabbit-hole".

What contortionists these neocon pundits are-who can kiss thier own ass while giving the finger to reality,all while doing the do the usual Texas 2-step Rovian propaganda dance in a flight suit.

It actually is somewhat entertaining-to see the measures they reach for these days-when it's not downright pathetic, (if not highly unethical).

I did not know Krauthammer was in a wheelchair and was not trying to be a smart-aleck when I said neocon "contortionist".

As usual cosmic karma usually bites me back-

A contortionist is me trying to reconnect a dryer vent hose that came off (a very tight squeeze to get behind).

One of these days I'll learn! lol
