Playing the game
[Read the article: Sarah Palin's museum of trite right-wing tactics: 1980-2008]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Name the American president to whom this letter was written.
Mr. President X:
You call your country 'a peace-loving, civilized,defender of human rights and personal freedoms', but what you are doing turned it into a monster, the world's biggest factory of the highest technologies of death.
You speak of ethnic cleansing in Kosovo, but what do you and your counsellors know of Kosovo? It is a battle-field sacred to all Slavs, where the destiny of Europe was decided six hundred years ago. It's the place where Serb epos was born. The people living there have always cherished it and protected it from any profanation. For Kosovo is the Serb Golgotha and the Resurrection. Many Serbs and Montenegrins that for years had lived in the United States often come to the Kosovo field to take a handful of the sacred earth to their temples and homes. Your hopes, Mr. President, for a split in our people and for a victory over them are futile. Today's Serbs and Montenegrins are the descendants of the fighters that marched to eternity in 1389.
You bombed the Serb city of Kraguevac where the Nazi Germans shot 7,000 people including whole schools of children together with their teachers. Also you were extremely cruel to our sacred places, our cities, our nature and our children. I am sorry for your daughter . She will be horrified by what you have done. Your image is forever disfigured by the crimes you have committed.
Yole Stanishich
No, this voice and thousands like these in those days were never given publicity in the NYT so for you it does not exist, consequently it does not matter. Your mind is still full of sweet memories of dreaming to lower yourself onto the Presidential Kneepad. Your trusted NYT told you the story of the poor, witch-hunted genius who had illuminated the world, and when that story came to an end, it told you the story of the ugly Evilbush who turned our noble Gryffindor into a miasmatic Slitherin. But the Sun will rise again ...
Well, there's my answer to your Kissinger angle, at least he is somewhat on par, remember tho that he gave no orders. But this Yoo guy who is nothing but a chinovnik? You say no to him, yes to the terrorist?
So no, you can keep your beer. It is not beer anyway, just kool-aid.

How sad in its pathetic transparency
[Read the article: Meet Sarah Palin's radical right-wing pals]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Salonistas are rejoicing over an article that unearths associations between Palin and the (perfectly legal) AK secessionist movement - whose members are described in exaggerated, dramatic terms like "ultraconservative far right". It seems these deeply rotten, pathologically immoral, murderously violent people want a lawful referendum on Alaskan secession.
To be precise: "The Alaskan Independence Party is dedicated to ultimate independence of Alaska and its people by peaceful and lawful means" (thank you, Akdoggie)
Well, leftsoes fainting in all directions.
Now, this is supposed to be equivalent to associations to terrorists who (illegally and criminally) actually bombed targets, including homes of people ("pigs") where children slept, induced riots, and murdered cops. These people who were self-admittedly marxists, are not described at all, let alone in terms like "ultraradical far-left". Obama's associations, which have been amply documented on numerous websites, are simply dealt with as "well, it is discredited".
Ayers & Dohrn were leaders of an illegal organization whose "founding document called for a white fighting force to be allied with the Black Liberation Movement and other radical movements[ to achieve the destruction of US imperialism and achieve a classless world: world communism." (thank you, Wikipedia)
Leftsoes yawn.
One ultranaive soul (7amosprop) even wrote here: come on, how bad Ayers could have really been if he is a college professor today.
And (s)he votes, I bet!

Salon's Machinist, Cyrus Farivar, quasi-corrects Green Gleenwald in the Palin email hack case
[Read the article: Major shock: Eavesdropping powers abused without oversight]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Wald Greenglenn, who is usually obsessively meticulous, or perhaps meticulously obsessive, in updating his blog entries, is now forever known on the vast, wide expanse of the Internet as the Blogger Who Never Found Out Who Hacked Palin's Yahoo Account.
His blog entry, where he advocates that people who have nothing to hide should not be upset if their email accounts are hacked, states, and now will state in perpetuity:
"The available evidence strongly suggests the hacker is loosely part of an assorted band of Internet pranksters ranging from the juvenile to the psychopathic. Conventional political agendas (“Vote Obama!”) don’t exactly appear to be their interest. "
Well, well.
The hacker was known, within about 24 hours and is now, as of today, indicted.
The Machinist mentions the fact of the indictment but he is verboten, jawohl, Herr Stasiunterlagengesetzesoffizer, to mention that he is the college-age son of a politician. A democrat state congressman.
But I am free to say it so here it is, as public service.
Some listen to things illegally they should not be listening to - it is a crime.
Meanwhile others, much more than the illegal listeners, do not listen to things they could freely listen to. It is worse than a crime - it is stupid.

He's talking about yous, Salonistas!
[Read the article: The end of "Opus"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"I'll be on my couch Sunday mornings screaming at Brokaw and Stephanopoulos to call out the blathering bastards on their stupid fucking talking points and pin the dancing, lying, spinning Tasmanian Weasels down about something, ANYTHING for Christ Bloody Sake THE COUNTRY IS GETTING STEERED INTO CHAOS AND INSOLVENCY AND WAR BY ITS UNREAD UNINFORMED DULLARD SHEEP CONSTITUENCIES AND YOU JUST LET THE CANDIDATE SAY ONE MORE TIME WITHOUT OBJECTION THAT HE'S GOING TO CUT TAXES WHILE HE CALLS FOR FREE 24 KARAT GOLD FRANKFURTERS TO BE INSERTED INTO EVERY AMERICAN'S ASS JUST BECAUSE BUTT BULLION POLLS WELL."
Very well said.
Fear doesn't so much rule the wood pulp news industry. More like pee-on-themselves existential terror.
Bullseye as well.
I begin to wonder if by never reading comix (does one read comix?, watch, look at?) I have actually missed something.
