DOESN'T MATTER ANYWAY, (FUGETABOUDIT)
[Read the article: Michael Mukasey's role in the Jose Padilla case]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The fact Mukasey stood up to BushCo and rejected it's plea to reconsider his Ruling, didn't matter ultimately, because they simply ignored the Court and went fishing for approval elsewhere, which they ultimately found. It all reminds me of poor hapless Kay Corleone,(the Democrats), in Godfather II, that packed the kids to leave Michael,(BushCo), and of his reaction, "Don't you know that that is an impossibility, that that could never happen"?, "Don't you know I would use all my power to see that never happens"? When the Democrats, er, I mean, Kay, continues to prod, Michael eventually slaps her down, which is all that will happen here, no matter what they do. After all these years of repeated and overt Criminal behavior by this President, does anyone really believe he would appoint his own hangman? You may be thinking that as Jr. walks into the Dubai sunset, pockets stuffed full of War Profiteering loot, free as a bird.

A STRAW FOR THE CAMELS BACK
[Read the article: What happens to private contractors who kill Iraqis? Maybe nothing]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This massive misadventure by Jr. and the Neocons, just keeps getting better by the day. I keep waiting for the World Community to find it's collective voice and tell them, "that's about enough of that", and bring charges before the World Court, citing all those who concocted this atrocity with Crimes against Humanity, and order a War Crimes tribunal in the Hague.
While we piss away our entire military and every bit of borrowed cash we can find, the Russians have begun to rebuild THEIR military, with the massive oil wealth Putin has secured, and have once again begun "Patrolling" eastern European Airspace in pre cold war style. The Chinese, who we only think about when we look at the million and one products in our homes that come from there, or are being recalled for killing us, are building the Worlds largest fighting force, and no one even mentions that they are the dreaded "communist menace", that just a short while ago was the cause of endless war in Vietnam. We don't make anything in this country anymore, and if we should suddenly be faced with a REAL threat from an unfriendly Government, we only have one toybox left to open, and that's the one that can end the world.
When we go out soon to cast our votes for the next group of deciders to reign over us, I hope we'll finally say, "that's enough of that", and ignore what the glossy box tells us is best. It's not only time for real change, it's absolutely imperative, and a matter of survival. We haven't the luxury of time, we are fresh out. The global ice is melting, and soon food, water, and a place to live could cause a new world war, and this time, we aren't the only ones with a nuke.
Ron Paul for President, 2008

IDIOT SON
[Read the article: Bush's stairway to paradise]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The fact the Bush Family unleashed this "Damien" on our society, will be THEIR legacy, not what Poppy did during his single term. Anyone could have looked at Jr. BEFORE he was installed in office and seen the trainwreck ahead.
He is simply doing what he's ALWAYS done, and that's to fuck everything up royally. In the past, Poppy would bail him out, and the numbnuts would amble away to the next disaster, assured of never having to be held accountable, no matter WHAT he did. But when he was crowned King, (and make no mistake, that's what he considers himself), he convinced himself, with the help of Cheney, Rove, Rummy, and all the rest of the neocons, that HE, and not Poppy, was the "Decider", and finally was going to hit that home run, score that touch down, win that big race, that had eluded him his entire life.......
and we all know how well that's turned out.

MSM and TRUTH
[Read the article: What you missed while watching the new "Bionic Woman"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It has been a very long time since you could watch ANY MSM broadcasts, and expect to get anything approaching the Truth, let alone some insight into WHY we as a Nation, have allowed Fascist Criminals to take Control of our Government and Military, for the purposes of Financial Gain for themselves and their Mega Wealthy Base. Listening to this gaggle of bought and paid for hacks, (except for Dennis Kucinich), reminds me of just how bad it's become. The fix is apparently in, and all the talking heads of the Fascist owned American Press have given the nod to Hillary as Heir to the BushCo Throne. I have already made a strategic assault on this Ramrod of Evil, and switched Party affiliation to Republican, so as to be able to vote for Ron Paul. He is the last hope we have as a Free Nation to stop our slide into the vortex of no return. This movement has huge legs, and I love how bewildered the MSM is at the polling results. They simply cannot report the truth without going against the SOP of the Corporate Owners.
To actually have an underdog like Ron Paul pull the rug out from under the Fascists is inspiring, and renews my faith that we might not be totally fucked after all.
RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT !!!
POWER TO THE PEOPLE !!!
DEATH TO TYRANTS !!!
