    Whoa.

    So sorry to offend your delicate countenance.

    I'm pissed that nobody at Salon (where I consider the population to be one of the more educated/eloquent on the web) thinks it's worthwhile to talk about what's happening under our noses. Hell, it's been declared. People who shout "conspiracy theory!!" and run the other way are frightened to think that a PNAC-type plan could be carried out to the effect it has been. I guess I can count you as one of that crowd.

    This is also a free forum, and I wasn't off-topic.

    So stow your righteous outrage and condemnation, buddy boy. That thing up your ass is making you act like a total jerkoff.

  • Um...

    Time and again, people on this site refuse to achnowledge that the PNAC's plan for America has been carried out almost in its entirety by the Bush administration.

    Really?

    I mean, really?

  • Sajwan -- they pretty much bank on the fact that many Americans are ignorant of what the CIA's been up to for the past 60 years

    Or, to put it another way, "Why do they hate us?"

    You said, "So the latest right wing propaganda has Americans not forgetting that Iran took Americans hostage in 1979, and are still so awesomely pissed 28 years later that they want America to unilaterally invade/bomb yet another sovereign state."

    I'm all for historical references if they're put in context, but no one mentions that the CIA overthrew the legitimate, democratically-elected Iranian leader, Premier Mosaddeq, in 1953. And then of course, we materially supported Saddam Hussein in the Iran/Iraq war that cost Iran approximately 500,000 lives.

    But of course, they kidnapped a group of Americans and held them hostage, so we must get revenge almost 30 years later by launching a massive aerial bombardment, sure to kill thousands of civilians. I guess we can call it even then, and start the process of winning hearts and minds.

    This strategic approach was developed by that collection of overeducated twits known as the “neoconservatives.” While Bill Clinton was in the White House, the neocons huddled at Project for a New American Century, hatching bold ideas about “benevolent global hegemony,” meaning American domination of the planet, and securing America’s status as the World’s Only Superpower — now and forever. Think old-fashioned nativism gone way proactive.
  • Hitler stalks you at every turn

    Grampa: Hitler stalks you at every turn!

    Lisa: Grampa!

    Grampa: Well, it does-- Aah! Hitler! There it is! Hitler!

    Lisa: It's only Maggie.

    Grampa: (laughs sheepishly) Oh, yeah. You know, at my age, the mind starts playing tricks. So-- Aah! Hitler!

    Lisa: That's only the cat.

    Grampa: Oh. Aah! Hitler!

    Lisa: That's Maggie again, Grampa.

    Grampa: Oh. Where were we? Hitler!

    apologies to Groening & Co.

  • Naive fools

    You all don't recognize the truth, do you?

    "Glenn is either planning the nuclear annihilation of Jerusalem with his Iranian paymasters, or planning the nuclear annihiltion of Tehran with his Zionist paymasters."

    He is of course planing both, acting on the orders of freemasons and templars.

  • @Newleft

    No worries, your not intelligent enough to offend me, just arrogant enough to annoy.

    Who isnt talking about PNAC? Who thinks its a conspiracy theory? You mean because we don't mention it when YOU want we 1. either don't know about it or 2. don't beleive in it/ think its conspiracy theory?

    In your arrogance, yet again, you assume i dont understand or know about PNAC. I do, i agree that its a plan being followed, i beleive its an iteration of their ideology, but unlike you, i realize that the topic here I dont lecture others about what they should be speaking of. I am merely commenting on the fact that no matter what the topic someone feels it should be another, or focused on differently. Well, i say, stop crying and start a blog. Other than that your an arrogant moron who thinks he knows and "sees" what other s dont. Here's a clue- you dont.

    Get over yourself.

    Really.

    And BTW, now your gonna tell me about whats in my ass? Jeez, you really want to control everbodies life dont you? Join the rightards, their right up your alley.

  • And did you contact the Criminal Investigations Division of the U.S. Army, Glenn?

    As I suggested you do yesterday? And will you contact the Judge Advocate General -- U.S. Army, today?

    Did you do either of these things, Glenn?

    If not, then why not?

    Oh, but you will go on Randi Rhodes ridiculous entertainment show this afternoon and have an exchange of spit with a world champion spitter, which will result in nothing. Randi Rhodes is the Left Wing's answer to Michele Malkin and not half as smart. You yourself said you didn't like what happened to you the last time you went on her idiotic, hyperventilating and mostly factually half-wrong show.

    You are a lawyer, for fuck's sake! Use your training! Use the real channels to get to the bottom of this.

    If you are as exercised about this Boylan thing as you claim you are, then just go right to the CID and the JAG and force them to either start a real investigation, or tell you why they won't.

    It seems pretty straightforward to me.

  • Christopher Michael Neill

    What Paul Dirks said. And what bamage confirmed.

    So you may want to be less dickish next time.

  • The "H" Word

    Hitler was the best friend Zionists ever had. They scare people with the "H" word like the church used to use Satan and his vast army of demons.

  • Garry

    Glenn has already commented, either in this section or on the other post about Boylan's Denial, that actions are being taken. He is working on this and I think it behooves us to be patient and allow those actions to coalesce. He doesn't necessarily owe us a blow by blow description of what is going on behind the scenes, especially if revealing it prematurely could interfere with what is being done.

    In the meantime, instead of being aggressively argumentative, the rest of us can add our voices to the chorus and keep attention on this as it deserves. I think you are on the same side as Glenn, and most of the rest of us, on this. So why are you so angry with him?

  • Hitler? Insane!

    Forget impeachment for the many crimes that he and his administration are guilty of! We need to impeach this man on grounds of mental defect.

    All the signs are there. The refusal to accept reality(WMD's, the civil war in Iraq, his belief that history will vindicate him), paranoia(anyone against his position is against the USA, MSM are out to get him), isolation(listens to no one but other neo-cons, handpicked audiences), inappropriate emotional reactions(laughing at serious policy questions, angry about challenging questions), inability to concentrate(google any press conference or speech).

    Now he wants to start another war without reason and without end. To secure stability in the mid-east.

    Tell me he isn't crazy.
