UNDER THE "BIG W": 12 BILLION STOLEN
One of my favorite movies is "IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD" directed by Stanley Kramer. Remember Spencer Tracy, the mild-mannered chief of Police, who manipulated all those frantic people in order to rob them blind? He had plotted for years to steal the fortune under the big "W". What a coincidence. Guess the BIG "W" could stand for you-know-who of the same initial. Keep in mind, the money under the big W was stolen too.
Anyway, Dick Cheney reminds me of Spencer Tracy's character in that movie. He had no conscience, just like Cheney and Rove. I see Cheney and Rove (they are interchangeable) as the puppet masters standing behing the puppet Bush, pulling all the strings. They will stop at nothing to rape and pillage and ruin our country. They gave no-bid contracts to firms like Blackwater and Haliburton — and guess what? Over nine billion dollars was stolen by "ghost" employees. Turns out that 25% of all no-bid government contracts awarded to Bush's cronies, always "disappears" to the wealthy elite at the top of the chain. And we wonder why the average American cannot afford to survive. The "trickle-down" theory at its finest. This is the most un-Christian thing I've ever heard of.
IRAQ'S MISSING BILLIONS: In a hospital room in Iraq, a newborn baby struggles to breathe. Doctors are deeply frustrated by the severe lack of equipment to save her. The hospital, meant to have benefited from a $4 million refit, is a germ-infested, dilapidated structure with raw sewage leaks in the kitchens and operating rooms. It has melted lighting fixtures. Ants crawl around on the floors. This hospital is just one example of how the huge funds allocated for restoration have somehow gone missing.
In this revealing documentary, Dr. Ali Fadhil, a young Iraqi doctor, sets out to learn what has led to the catastrophic results when money was put into the care of the U.S. led coalition. What emerges is a disturbing tale of corruption and fraud.
As word spread of the kind of money that could be made in Iraq, foreign contractors negotiated deals fast and furiously. CBC Newsworld
From The Age
TENS of billions of dollars have been lost through fraud in Iraq and mismanagement, with some of the money possibly funding the insurgency, a US House of Representatives Committee has been told.
The claims came at the start of a four-day hearing by the House Government Oversight Committee, headed by Henry Waxman. Representatives of eight big companies with contracts in Iraq, including Haliburton, will testify at the hearing, and can expect a hostile reception from the Democrat-controlled committee.
Mr Waxman said the hearing would expose breathtaking "waste, fraud and abuse" and made it clear he intends to pursue senior Bush Administration officials about their role in botched Iraq reconstruction programs.
He said disorganisation and confusion in the Bush Administration after the fall of Iraq meant that billions of dollars had been wasted or stolen and had still to be accounted for.
He said the US Federal Reserve shipped 363 tons of cash, totalling $US12 billion, packed in wooden boxes to Iraq during the Bremer administration from March 2003 to June 2004 but it had "disappeared".
"Who in their right minds would send 360 tons of cash into a war zone?" he asked as Mr Bremer sat silently. "But that's exactly what our Government did."
Mr Bremer did not dispute the claim that $12 billion — about a third of the reconstruction budget for 2003 — could not be accounted for and that there was no paper trail that could help explain what happened to it.
"The country was in chaos and the banking system was a shambles," he said. "We had to simplify the contracting rules. Such regulations are simply not designed to deal with wartime conditions."

Join the Impeachment Race in State Legislatures
New Mexico and Vermont are in a race to be the first state to send impeachment resolutions of Bush and Cheney to Congress (see details below). Several other states are also in the race, including Maine (http://www.maineimpeach.org) and New Jersey (http://www.impeachthem.com). A state legislature, without a governor, can petition the House to begin impeachment, and a single Congress Member can force an impeachment debate by accepting the state resolution.

Another great article, Lydia. War has long been a mechanism useful for transferring wealth from the lower and middle classes into the pockets of the super-rich. What sets this war apart from earlier ones is the scope of that transfer and the shameless audacity with which the puppet masters carry it out.
ReplyDeleteAfterdowningstreet.org is a great place. I check it regularly. I have already contacted my local reps about an impeachment initiate here in Oregon. They support it and it has been introduced in both houses. As for talking to my representatives in DC, aides from all three have come to recognize my voice on the phone. Wu's and Wyden's people are always happy to hear from me. Gordon Smith's are not. His aide hung up on me yesterday morning when I told him Smith is a liar and a hypocrite.
You do such a great job here. :-)
Thank you Tomcat! You do such a great job too. I love your blog, and will visit more frequently when these deadlines are over. Want to contribute to your spiritual progressive dialogue, which I believe holds many answers.
ReplyDeleteThose impeachment proceedings have been stalled in various states for three years now. It's not likely to happen, but it could, especially now that Democrats control the lion's share of state legislatures across the country.
ReplyDeletePeople are tired of Republicans. People are tired of greed and corruption and heavy-handed political "dialogue" where more than half the country is ignored and so their voices are stilled and important opinions treated like Congressional pages dressed in tight T shirts and jeans.

ReplyDeletePoor Mary Matalin. Imus juust asked her is she was aware that she was lying.
Great morning TV.
You can almost see mornings around the Carville household for the past year....Matalin comes down in her bathrobe, tugged tightly around her flannel pajamas. Carville is sitting there in his fuzzy flannel Big Dog pants (get it?) and T-shirt.
"Morning, hon!" he chirps.
"Shut your f*cking liberal trap, you weenie!"
"Love you too, dear!"
Thank you, Lydia. that was very nice of you to say. On the religious left editorial series, I put up the fourth installment yesterday and will probably do the fifth on Sunday. Your participation adds to the depth and quality there. whenever you make it over.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone see ANN COULTER on NBC Today show today? How do they allow her to come on show that's not on the Faux "news" network?
ReplyDeleteCoulter is on NBC because they've been cowed into presenting only right wing viewpoints on stories by Jack Welch.
ReplyDeletePlus, she gives him head.
Carl, Imus had Mary Matalin so mad she called back into his show an hour later wanting to argue with him. He finally hung up on her.
ReplyDeleteHe kept asking if she was running the Scooter Libby defense fund and that made her mad.
It was great TV
Imus, for all his right-wing nonsense, is at heart someone who likes stirring up trouble and has enough liberal left in him to know how to get to her.
ReplyDeletePity he stopped being a liberal so many years ago and started buying into his press.
Oh. Lydia, I meant to ask you, I know you're a big John Edwards supporter.
ReplyDeleteHow do you feel about this whole blogger thing? You know, how he hired two of the "Large Mammal" bloggers of Blogtopia (©Skippy) to attract other bloggers, then some crackpot wingnut from the Catholic Church pointed out how hateful they've been to him (gee...the guy only suggested that Jews were responsible for all the anal f&cking in Hollywood movies...go figure...), so he fired them, then rehired them today.
We've had to deal with William Donohue for years in NYC until he was finally laughed off the local TV stations for being such a jerk.
I was pretty pissed at Edwards, and told him so on his blog.
Imus isn't as right wing as you think. He daily pushed for John Kerry and Harold Ford.
ReplyDeleteHe likes McCain but has been badmouthing him lately because of the war.
He liked that idiot Santorum because he was pushing an autism bill.
He has blasted Bush and Cheney ever since the war began.
His sidekicks are right wingers.
Yea, I know he backed Kerry, but taht was because he realized was a screw up Bush was. He backed Dumbya in 2000.
ReplyDeleteHe also backed Bubba in 1992, but backed Dole in 1996 ("If it matters at your house, it matters at the White House"). He backed Ford, but he also backed J D Hayworth, which is a little like backing a funnier Adolph Hitler.
Carl:
ReplyDeleteHe dumped JD Haworth and banned him from his show, before election because he would go on and on about Bush.
I think he flops both ways but today he hates Bush and Cheney.
Ana Nicole Smith died today in Florida of a drug overdose.
ReplyDelete4 U.S soldiers died today in Iraq.
Which funeral will Bush come closer to attending?
Clue: He hasn't been to a soldiers funeral yet.
WHAT?
ReplyDeleteAnd she didn't accept my marriage proposal yet!!!!!
Wow, that's so sad...she had a really troubled life and she was clearly not handling it well, and as Lydia can attest, she got to live it out in the public eye.
ReplyDeleteNot to minimize the death of four soldiers in Iraq, not by a long shot, but you get immune to those stories when they happen every day.
Yea, from time to time he does that, banning folks from his show, but then he kisses and makes up. And never forget that he;s a big Lieberman supporter.
ReplyDeleteYou're right about that idiot Lieberman.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you would be crushed about Ana Nicole.
Bush will attend her funeral before he attends a soldiers.
Jealousy is such an ugly emotion, annymoose...maybe you should put all that hate and vulgar lust into your blow up rubber doll...
ReplyDeleteNot broken up, Larry. I feel about the same way I did when Princess Di was killed: sad because she had a lot to live for still.
ReplyDeleteTomcat said "Another great article, Lydia. War has long been a mechanism useful for transferring wealth from the lower and middle classes into the pockets of the super-rich. What sets this war apart from earlier ones is the scope of that transfer and the shameless audacity with which the puppet masters carry it out."
ReplyDeleteExcellent post Tomcat, and your absolutely right, wars are used to transfer wealth from the poor and middle class to the wealthy, i've posted on this fairly extensively over the last year, the seniorage that will very likely be used to finance these deficits and wars will devaste the poor and middle class.
I need to look into this more, as its inconceivable how 12 billion dollars can just be lost and unaccounted for, Bush and his pack of fools should be impeached JUST for that incompetence, however unfortunately there is far more corruption, incompetence and treason these evil men are guilty of.
Don't waste your time Carl, he/she/it can't even wipe his/her/its runny nose.
ReplyDeleteMike, Bucky Bush got 6 million of the missing money and the SEC didn't indict him, just a couple former officers from his employer.
ReplyDeleteMike,
ReplyDeleteThe $12 billion is a downpaymnet to Halliburton for the war on Iran...
Hey, maybe she and MooMoo can go do some TrimSpa...I hear that stuff will kill ya!
ReplyDeleteSo much for being broke up, huh, Larry :-)
ReplyDeletePigs with no life and no future would never try and better themselves by using Trimspa or anything else.
ReplyDeleteThe repugs have NO accountability, when we have a 9 billion dollar deficit that is like;y to destroy our economy and way of life and 12 billion just gets lost, and nothing is done, thats inconceivable............NO ONE loses 12 billion dollars, that money was stolen by the Neo Cons, and Congress had better do SOMETHING about it, I had not heard this before, but this makes me angry, I dont want another do nothing congress, if this Administration cant account for the money they need to be removed from office for incompetence and possibly theft.
ReplyDeleteWell, Mike, it is Congressional hearings that brought out the fact that the $12 billion was stolen.
ReplyDeleteIf Bush even thinks of making up a reason to attack Iran, Congress better be all over him like Mark Foly on pages with investigations and hearings.
ReplyDeleteBetween Uncle Bucky and Cheney's little ducky they should have all the funds for the Bush/Cheney/Rove retirement fund.
ReplyDeleteI'm dying for the confrontation when Congress puts the "DECIDER" in his place and he blows a gasket and goes ballistic like a 10 year old spoiled brat.

Well lets hope it happens because its exactly what we need to get our country back on the right track.
And your absolutely right America is sick and tired of the repugs and their ignorance.
Tony Snow was defending Nancy Pelosi wanting the jet to fly her and her family and friends back and forth.
ReplyDeleteSomething isn't right if Tony(liar) Snow defends you.
Eh. The way I see it, the country can buy an intermediate sized private jet, like a Hawker or Challenger, probably get it at auction from some drug seizure, and she can use that.
ReplyDeleteI mean, the simple fact is, she never demanded this jet. They asked her to put in a proposal and it was her first offer. I'm sure she would settle.
ReplyDeleteFox lie channel was badmouthing Pelosi this morning, because they claimed the military doesn't have enough planes to give her a big one, so she should want the same one as chubby Denny.
ReplyDeleteI nevfer understood why he needed one.
Larry,
ReplyDeleteNow who's fault is it if the military lacks equipment? Isn't it the President who sets their budget?
It's the President and he never had problems finding enough for the former speaker.
ReplyDeleteTwo Republican congressmen are saying that if either of the border patrol guards, (who were sent to prison for killing a drug smuggler crossing the border) are killed in prison, they will introduce impeachment legislation.
ReplyDeleteCarl, yes i was reading about that Edwards blogger thing today. So he rehired them?
ReplyDeleteMore on this in a bit...running out to take kids to play tennis..

Lydia named herself after Cornell.
Only one of them deserves the association. Here's a hint: it ain't Ann...
Larry,
ReplyDeleteImpeachment on what grounds?
Lydia,
ReplyDeleteYes, he rehired them after receiving assurances that they had no ill intention towards Donohue or the Catholic Church.
Funny how that works: Evangelical Republican Christians are taught that Catholics are evil and that the Pope is the Anti-Christ, yet for some bloody-minded reason, Catholics think their best political hope is with those cretins?
Carl:

You might as well get a Rush Limbaugh quote...or Ken Mehlman.
I also heard him say it on Lou Dobbs last night.

I feel so sad for Anna Nicole Smith, her baby daughter, and her son.
ReplyDeleteI actually grew to have a lot of compassion for her.
Such a tragedy and a waste. Imagine how incredible she would have been if she had gotten sober long ago.
So many people can't face their demons.

WELL SAID, CARL!
Death is terrible no matter who it is. We either handle life or life handles us.
ReplyDeleteSomeone has got to stop Bush from killing any more of our soldiers! Anyone who puts forth impeachment proceedings has my vote.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe we have to argue with people over the ethics of this war?
I am against corruption and this war. Why on earth would anyone be on the republican side? There is something inherently disturbing about "conservatism" if it represents greed and bloodshed, which is what the military industrial complex has boiled our nation down to.
It's all about money and power gets money.
ReplyDeleteNow John Warner and Chuck Hagel have informed both leaders that they will attach Warners anti-surge bill on legislation that comes along, because they are unhappy with the stalemate.
If they really care, why did they vote with McCain to stop the Democrats bill?
You can read the transcript of Don Imus's interview this morning with Mary Matalin.
ReplyDeleteImus had her upset.

You can also read a better version on Huffingtonpost.
Good reading, better watching in person.
Crooks and Liars have a clip of the Imus interview with Matalin.
ReplyDeleteLydia,
ReplyDeleteI posted a goodbnye to Anna Nicole at my blog. I didn't know or care much about her, but I felt such empathy when she died this afternoon.
You know, she seemed like she was just getting it together...
Lydia,
ReplyDeletePeople don't side with the Republicans. Zomnbies, sheeple, do.
The buy into the mythology of the Republican view of the world: that it's America's world and America's playground.
Which might have been true fifty years ago, but that golden moment went by rather quickly.
Too much of our future has to be faced in partnership with the rest of the world. Humanity is only just now realizing that. The globe knows no national borders, no artfices of man's rule of "law" or whatever.
Humanity realizes it. Now we have to get the Republicans too, as well.
Larry,
ReplyDeleteThey voted with McCain because he's the nominee apparent.
Jeez, spend an hour on an exercise bike and suddenly I can't type a "b" without hitting the "n"? LOL!
ReplyDeleteThe reason that the US Government wants the Speaker of the House of Representatives to fly on military aircraft, is the same reason the have the President of the United States, and Vice President Of the United States, fly that way also, SAFETY.
ReplyDeleteBTW the Secretary of Defense has his own plane provided by the DOD. The Secretary of State has her own plane capable of trans Atlantic flight, the Secretary of the Treasury has his own plane, so does the secretary of Homeland security, so does every other cabinet secretary.
Security is needed because there are people both inside and outside the Unites States who are willing to hurt members of our government for various political and religious reasons. Since the Speaker of the House technically out ranks any cabinet secretary, being THIRD in line for succession to the Presidency ahead of all cabinet secretaries I think they should have at least as good a mode of transportation and security detail and ths various cabinet secretaries do. When Denny “the fat pig pedophile protector” Hastert was speaker he was even allowed to make extra stops to pick up other congressmen to aid him in the futile attempt to cover up after the Foleygate pedophile scandal broke. But the reichwingnut blogosphere always gave him a free pass, because he did their bidding and tried to keep the re-pubie corruption machine running at full speed.
The reason the reichwingnut spin machine went into over drive was the fact, that they could LIE about it. They could lie about why the Air Force who furnaces these planes based on criteria from the people responsible for the security of the person there are tasked with keeping safe for the people of this country to do the job they were voted in or hired to do, would have to use a larger plane for the flight to San Francisco. The bigger plane is required for security which includes the ability to make a non stop flight as per their requirements for security.
The right wing moronic spin cycle has lied about every thing they ever commented on, Look at gay-dalf, Tiny the Liar Dolty Boy, Mook Mook, crusty the clown and all his various scitzo sock puppet alter ego's. Not to mention the professional liars, Rush "The drug addicted gasbag" Limpballs, Bill "the Falafel King" O'Liely, Anny "the plagiarist hate monger" Tranny, Micheal "lies a lot" Malkin, and the liars on reichwing hate radio Fox Lies noise machine and the kool aid drinking talking heads of the Bush criminal empire(to include the ones the tax payers pay directly to lie for Bush the Dumb).
This is just another pathetic example of their hypocritical screeching and dishonest attempt to deceive the American people.
Carl, I too felt overwhelming sadness for Anna Nicole. We said a prayer for her, her son and baby girl.
ReplyDeleteWhen her son died I posted an essay with my condolences. It shattered me -- just the idea of losing a child, no matter what. And the guilt she must have been going through.
She recently said that her son was visiting her in her dreams, calling to her and asking her to come to him.
God Bless her, it makes me so sad. WE must never judge others; Jesus loved the fallen people, and the flawed they came to him for rest and forgiveness.

ReplyDeleteMe thinks Tiny the Liar was just channeling Johan Goldberg last fall. See if you can see the similarities;
ReplyDeleteIraq Bet Stirs War of Words Between FAIR Founder and Jonah Goldberg
A 2005 Iraq bet has stirred a war of words today between conservative columnist Jonah Goldberg and the founder of a liberal media-watchdog group.
Goldberg wrote on Feb. 8, 2005: "I predict that Iraq won't have a civil war, that it will have a viable constitution, and that a majority of Iraqis and Americans will, in two years time, agree that the war was worth it. I'll bet $1,000 (which I can hardly spare right now)."
The Tribune Media Services columnist/National Review Online editor at large added in the piece that the USO would receive the money if he lost the wager, which was made in the context of a dispute Goldberg and "Informed Comment" blogger Juan Cole were having at the time.
"The two-year period comes due this Thursday," wrote Jeff Cohen, founder of the Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) media-watchdog group, in an AlterNet article today. "Even Goldberg now realizes his prediction was totally wrong -- with poll after poll showing most Americans do not 'agree that the war was worth it.' (Not to mention what Iraqis think of the war or Goldberg's boast that 'Iraq won't have a civil war.') So shouldn't Goldberg, or somebody, pay off the $1,000?"
E&P this morning asked Goldberg for his response, and he e-mailed: "I offered the bet in a foolish fit of pique with Cole. ... Cole refused to take the bet. ... [Now] it seems that his fans want it both ways. They want to extol Cole as a prince for not accepting the bet, but they want me to be held accountable to it even though he never agreed to it. Countless blogs have been dishonest about this suggesting I owe Cole himself $1,000.
"Regardless, Cohen knows Cole never took the bet, but he's trying to muddy the waters. Indeed, I've admitted that Cole would have won. I've written that the Iraq War was a mistake. ... I join a long list of people whose expectations about the war and its handling turned out to be wrong in whole or in part. ... For the record, I still support staying there, because even if it was a mistake to go in when and how we did, that doesn't mean a precipitous withdrawal will make things better."
Will Goldberg still pay the $1,000?
"I will undoubtedly give more money to the USO and to similar charities in the future, as I have done in the past," he replied. "But I am adamantly opposed to jumping through hoops for the likes of Cohen and Co. Intellectual honesty requires that I admit that Cole would have won had he taken the bet. I have done that. ... I have no obligations to him or anybody else in this regard no matter how hard some people try to claim otherwise. ... When I give to charity, again, I will do it privately which is at it should be."
Seems to be a reichwingnut thingy, like pwaying with widdle dollies .......
Clif - great Superbowl commercial!
ReplyDeleteIf anyone missed Chris Hedges on the Colbert Report log into comedy central.com tomorrow and watch the interview if its posted, or try to catch the repeat.
ReplyDeleteHedges is the author of a book called "American Facists" which is about how the Christian Right is destroying America.
This guy said it right.
He was good, but Colbert's questioning of the African American lady who was trying to deny Barack Obama was Black was priceless, Colbert had her stymied several times, and made her look somewhat ridicules in her assertions.
ReplyDeleteWhy would she deny he was black?
ReplyDeleteLarry, it's not really known at this point that Anna Nicole OD'd, so at this point in time its only speculation.
ReplyDeleteI too am saddened of her untimely passing. This ranks in the same category as the tragic death of Marilyn Monroe some 45 years ago.
I don't know what to say at this point. She endured so much pain and emotional distress over the past five months; one has to wonder now if that was too much for her to handle. I have seen this pattern many times with other well known names, not only in Hollywood but in professional sports. Some have lived to tell the tale of fighting their demons, like pro wrestling's Kevin Von Erich, while others didn't make it.
Lydia's right, friends. Lets share a prayer for Anna Nicole. She is now at peace, alongside her son Daniel, as well as Jesus and his Angels.
will post soon on this story at robdon33.blogspot.com.

Not to take away from Anna Nicole, but what I think is truly sad is what these twisted fools are doing to our country.
ReplyDeletePresident's Day is Monday, when I was a child growing up President Day used to make me think of our great presidents of the past who were great men, good men, respected by everyone, how does the world look at President's Day now after 6 years of GWB's treasonous reign of evil.
Better yet how does the world look at America now?
America was always a bastion of goodness, a symbol of freedom, a land of opportunity, where hard work was rewarded.
What have we had under GWB's reign of evil: we have become a symbol of evil, a world bully that attacks pre-emptively like a common street thug, we take what we want and do what is best for us without listening to other countries needs or wants, diplomacy and peace have become a dirty word to the Bush Administration.
Obeying and defending the Constitution and protecting our cherished freedom and privacy has drawn scorn and derision from this Administration, freedom of speech is abhorred by the repugs when it dissents from their talking points. They use fear and safety as talking points to destroy freedom, to undermine and destroy every bit of goodness that has been a symbol of our country and to seize more and more power and push their self serving agenda.
Our Country is slowly being transformed into an evil police state run by a cabal of megalomaniac dictators, the poor and middle class are losing more ground economically to the ultra wealthy, more and more good paying middle class jobs are being outsourced overseas while the rich robber barons, criminals manipulating the laws and our tax dollars to steal money from working class people become ever richer and more powerful, just as the robber barons like Jay Gould did in the Gilded Age.
What do kids think of now on Presidents Day, do they think of good men like Lincoln and Washington, men they respect and aspire to emulate, or do kids today both in America and around the world associate it with evil men, GWB, Dick Cheney, Hitler etc.......
For Hitler is who the Neo Cons have been emulating, from his rhetoric to instill fear in the masses, to discredit the opposition, to destroy freedom in the name of safety, to attack other countries pre emptively, from his giving the masses a common enemy to fear and hate, and a patriotic cause to rally around etc...
I wonder if in 6 short years the repugs have turned President and Presidents day into a dirty word, just as they have with America or the word Liberal, which are botyh symbols of freedom and goodness.
GWB NEEDS TO BE IMPEACHED ASAP before he can do anymore damage to this country.
The Virginian Pilot is reporting that Phillip Busch has filed a complaint with the Norfolk police against TV Evangelist Pat Robertson.
ReplyDeletePhillip Busch says Robertson threatened to kill him and his family at a legal proceeding Wednesday in federal court.
Busch is suing Robertson in federal court for misappropriation of his image in the promotion of Robertson's protein diet shake.
Robertson was accused in 1995 of making similar threats during a public feud with a former business associate.

Great post, Lydia.
ReplyDeleteHearing about these tons of cash being dropped to the fates in Iraq leads me back to a story that I wrote back in 2005 about tons of the dumped cash and a certain American K Street lobbyist firm.
Barbour Griffith & Rogers received $320K in the second-half of 2005 - lobbying fees from the Kurdistan Democratic Party.
Knowing fully well that the fight over Kirkuk is a powderkeg waiting to explode, I really have to question the lobbyists and their representation of the KDP at a time when our troops are over there giving their lives for these warring factions. It may not be illegal, I'm no expert...but it smells of rotten and unethical activity.
Carl, I know Kerry Von erich is dead, he's been dead for a decade or two, I think Kevin is dead as well, most of that family has either died or suffered some type of misfortune.
ReplyDeleteLatest polls say its going to be Rudy vs. Hillary.
ReplyDeleteThese two would be quite interesting to watch.
They need to get to the bottom of that 12 billion dollars being lost, "NO ONE" just loses 12 billion dollars, someone needs to be held accounable, my bet is that GWB, Cheney, Rummy, and all their Neo Con and Halliburton buddies as well as high ranking military and CIA people all have secret bank accounts were that money has been divided up.
ReplyDeleteBush Co needs to buy loyalty and that blood money is probably to pay off various Generals, Cia operatives, Contractors, foreigners etc to buy their loyalty, Hitler did the same thing, being generous with the war spoils was the one of the only ways to get many people to loyally support his twisted and genocidal agenda, dividing up war profits to buy loyalty is as old as mankind and as long as the people in charge have a big stick to instill fear and keep order this ensures honor among thieves at least for a time until the agenda or the controlling force of evil collapses.
Too bad neither one will ever make it past the primaries, although with that motley bunch the repugs have anyone could actually win.
ReplyDeleteLydia, It's hard to hear you in that YouTube thingie.

Mike,
ReplyDeleteKerry's dead. Kevin is the only surviving von Erich brother.
And Lydia?
ReplyDeleteYou interrupt whenever your heart desires, dear. We hang on your every word.
Is Kevin crippled, Carl?
ReplyDeleteI knew one of the brothers had survived, but I didnt think it was Kevin, guess I was wrong.
Kevin did retire from wrestling, even tho he's only like 44. He has four kids and lives in Dallas still.

GREAT ARTICLE JUDE, I remember. Hope everyone reads your article.
thank you
Carl, turn your volume up. It sounds fine over here.
ReplyDeleteOK, the sound got better about two-thirds of the way through, Lyd. All I could hear at first were the laughs of the guys in the audience, even with the volume up.
ReplyDeleteLydia, Jude,
ReplyDeleteWe killed five Kurds this morning in an airstrike.
Washington Post:
ReplyDelete"The bottom line is that intelligence relating to the Iraq-al-Qaeda relationship was manipulated by high-ranking officials in the Department of Defense to support the administration's decision to invade Iraq," Levin said yesterday. "The inspector general's report is a devastating condemnation of inappropriate activities in the DOD policy office that helped take this nation to war."
Carl, we killed five human beings this morning. More than Kurds, these are human beings. Sickening
ReplyDeleteKarl Rove explained the Bush immigration policy to an audience of Republican backers, that "I don't want my 17 year old son picking tomatoes or cleaning hotel rooms in Las Vegas."
ReplyDeleteMust think his boy is too good for manual labor.
Bush's latest lapdog Robert Gates claims he has undeniable proof that Iran is meddling in Iraq.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't the world have undeniable proof that Bush is meddling in Iraq?
Get ready for World War III
Must think his boy is Massa...
ReplyDeleteLydia,
ReplyDeleteTrue, those were five human beings, but since Jude brought up the fighting near Kirkuk, I thought it was important to note that we may taken sides without even meaning to.
Mike said, "I need to look into this more, as its inconceivable how 12 billion dollars can just be lost and unaccounted for...."
ReplyDeleteThanks Mike. The answer, of course is all too obvious. The money was not lost and was accounted for. The problem is that the people of the US will never get to see THAT balance sheet.
Carl, agreed, I was just adding to what you said. Jude's article is chilling.
ReplyDeleteIf Bush wants his "surge" he should just get Cheney and Rummy to pay for it with this stolen money.
And by the way, Pelosi casually said that Rummy still has an office at the Pentagon. EXPLAIN WHY!!!??? He was fired, dismissed. Why are our tax dollars going to pay for Rummy anymore. Why is he allowed to keep his desk?
Democrats have no backbone either.
ReplyDeleteThey rant and complain about Bush and the war, then what do they do. They will approve the increase in troops and give Bush the funding he wants because they don't want to look like they are punishing the troops. They could cut off funding which would basically end the war and bring everyone home, but they won't.
Rummy also has a large staff to go along with his neverending job.
ReplyDeleteNot to change the subject again, but I just found the video footage of our Too Close For Comfort DVD release press party. Check it out in the sidebar of my blog. It's Sara, Jackie and Monroe.
ReplyDeleteJim Bullock and Deborah Van Valkenburgh and me.
I used to have the biggest crush on Jim Bullock. I was the only person who had no idea he was gay.
The video starts at that point, but I wll download the full video with Harrison on the Edge interview soon.
Jim is hilarious. He used to do a great Paul Lynde imitation.
Very funny videos
ReplyDeleteDo you and Deborah still hang out together?
Uhhhhhh......Lydia, I cant find these videos of yours on Youtube? Do you have a link or something?
ReplyDeleteHurry, or I,ll put gum in your hair.
:D
Strange, I havent been banned???
ReplyDeleteObviously, Lydia misses me...LOL!
:D

The videos are on the blog page, in the sidebar.
ReplyDeleteThe part just before we talk about Jim being gay, was cut off.
Right before it was cut off, I was saying how in love I was with Jim Bullock, and that I was the last person to know he was gay.
The Libby CIA leak trial has taken an interesting turn.
ReplyDeleteTrial exposes White House crisis machine
ReplyDeleteBy PETE YOST,
Associated Press Writer
Fri Feb 9, 4:50 PM ET
WASHINGTON -
David Addington, chief legal adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney, says he was taken aback when the White House started making public pronouncements about the CIA leak investigation.
In the fall of 2003, President Bush's press secretary was categorically denying that either Karl Rove or I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby was involved in exposing the identity of Valerie Plame, a CIA employee married to a critic of the war in Iraq.
"Why are you making these statements?" Addington asked White House communications director Dan Bartlett.
"Your boss is the one who wanted" them, Bartlett replied, referring to Cheney.
So far, the testimony of Addington and other administration aides, along with documents and Libby's audiotaped grand jury testimony, have provided a rare glimpse of how the Bush White House scrambled to respond to a political crisis as it intersected a criminal investigation.
ReplyDeleteAt the intersection was Cheney, along with Rove and Libby, who were working in the summer of 2003 to rebut claims by Plame's husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, that Bush had misled the nation about prewar intelligence on Iraq.
The White House denials on behalf of Rove and Libby came just before Rove secretly began acknowledging to the FBI that he had confirmed Plame's identity for conservative columnist Bob Novak, who first published her name and relationship to Wilson
Testimony and documents in the trial show Rove joining Cheney in trying to undercut Wilson's claim that the administration had twisted prewar intelligence to exaggerate the Iraqi threat.
ReplyDelete"We're a day late in getting responses to the story," Rove told a staff meeting, according to Libby's notes.
"Get the full story out," Cheney told aides, according to Libby's grand jury testimony.
According to Libby's notes, some of which surfaced at the trial, Bush expressed interest in a May 6, 2003 New York Times column critical of the administration and referencing an unnamed former ambassador, who turned out to be Wilson.
ReplyDeleteWhen is Lydias Ann Coulter book hitting the shelves?Its about a year and a half late as is.
ReplyDeleteLydia,
ReplyDeleteHow is Jim J doing these days? Last I heard he was pretty ill. I think it's pretty amazing that, as early as he contracted HIV, he's managed to stick around and thrive.

Where's your book?
No?
Then shut up.
Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteEverything is going according to a much better plan, thank you for asking.
Worf -- this Scooter Libby trial stuff is amazing! I have to re-read everything you posted.
I've been watching LinkTV all night. The have a four hour special called "The End Of Oil". Fascinating stuff. I didn't know that Texaco had raped Ecuador so badly that Ecuador went from being one of the world's most prolific oil sources to having none to speak of anymore. And most of the oil was spilled into the ground water and rivers and lakes.
ReplyDeleteGod, Big Oil sucks!
I'm so sad about Anna's death too! Over at AMERICAblog there is tons of talk about how the media is focusing on it too much. I agree to a point, but jees, the last six months of her life and then her untimely death sure has me very upset on what caused her death and has sprung me into fits of my eyes welling up for her!
ReplyDeleteShe may have not been perfect, but she always appeared to me to have a good heart and her childlike manner was so funny at times. So many nasty things have been said about her after her death, it makes me sad that people are like that and willing to post it for all the world to see. She was suffering over the loss of her son on top of all the other stuff she was dealing with. As a mother myself, I could feel her pain.
It's such a tragedy what happened. Her whole life was that way, unfortunately.
Hi Lydia! Yes, the Libby trial is heating up for sure. Treason loves company over there in the Bush Camp, huh? Wow!
ReplyDeleteSorry to leave so quickly, but I'm going to bed. :-)
ReplyDeletebetween the Libby trial and the missing 12 billion dollars there should be Plenty of cause to impeach Bush and Cheney and try them for Treason.
ReplyDeleteMike,
ReplyDeleteIf I had my druthers, I'd watn Rove more than either of those.
They're lame ducks. There's very little harm they can do anymore.
Rove however...
I see Cheney and Rove (they are interchangeable) as the puppet masters standing behing the puppet Bush, pulling all the strings. They will stop at nothing to rape and pillage and ruin our country. They gave no-bid contracts to firms like Blackwater and Haliburton...
ReplyDelete-Lydia Cornell
That's outrageous! So the obviously all hundreds of other firms with comparable oil field service capabilities are suing, since they were not allowed to bid for the booty ... right?
Thanx Lyd....I found your vids!
ReplyDeleteThe two videos are old news, however, the Pechanga one I have never seen.
:|
Its quite clear yoyu need JMM to freshen up the act. Destiny looks like she doesnt know what to do with her hands half the time......very unprofessional!
As a former supporter, I must admit it is you who keeps the show alive....although Destiny is kinda hot.......LOL!
Hmmmmmm......wonder how many times we've had it out on the blog?
I,ll e-mail you about appearing on a comedic talk show........surely your not chicken?!
I agree completely Carl, i'd like to see that lying slandering Naszi's hide nailed to a wall.
ReplyDeleteI thought he might be finished after the last election when america clearly said they are sick of the "smear and fear", the loies and the nazi like propaganda and rhetoric, but the BS is starting up again, so I think Rover was just laying low.
Its like these fools are brain damaged or retarded or something the way they think smearing Obams with their Osama/Obama chant or showing him morph into a terrorist or claiming he is a Muslim is going to make people think this respected politician is a terrorist, its laughable its so pathetic.
Same with Al Gore, the way they attack global warming means they are scared sernseless of these two and extremely desperate. its laughable how the little troll minions get their talking points and follow them like good little brain washed robots and discrediting global warming is clearly one of their talking points, funny thing is all they are discrediting is themselves.

Hey Foole you show me 100 firms that provide services comprable to Halliburton, put the pointy dunce cap back on pops.
ReplyDeleteOh and BTW, better run and hide till the we hours when everyone goes to bed, so Thu and Clif dont rip you to shreds and brualize you like they did a few nights ago, I havent seen anyone get beat up that bad since Troll Tex around Election time, it was a thing of beauty.
Saint hillary will save us. She will nationalize all the eevil corporations and as a result, our economy will thrive.
ReplyDeleteAfter nationalizing health care and pharmaceuticals, she will ciphon off the income of eevil energy corporations who will then have no incentive to develop the expensive, difficult-to-get oil in places like the deep water offshore.
So after stifling petroleum production, in order to make us more energy independent, hillary will shovel billions more to Archer Daniels Midland, who currently turns about 20% of the nations' corn production into federally-subsidized ethanol:
The Archer Daniels Midland Corporation (ADM) has been the most prominent recipient of corporate welfare in recent U.S. history. ADM and its chairman Dwayne Andreas have lavishly fertilized both political parties with millions of dollars in handouts and in return have reaped billion-dollar windfalls from taxpayers and consumers. Thanks to federal protection of the domestic sugar industry, ethanol subsidies, subsidized grain exports, and various other programs, ADM has cost the American economy billions of dollars since 1980 and has indirectly cost Americans tens of billions of dollars in higher prices and higher taxes over that same period. At least 43 percent of ADM's annual profits are from products heavily subsidized or protected by the American government. Moreover, every $1 of profits earned by ADM's corn sweetener operation costs consumers $10, and every $1 of profits earned by its ethanol operation costs taxpayers $30.
-ADM: A Case Study In Corporate Welfare
Yes saint hillary will save us: She will disrupt market forces and ruin our energy industry in order to put the federal government in control of developing "alternative energy" sources.

Oh and a hearty good evening FF.
ReplyDeleteLokk at idiot Mike trying to impress Lydia over & over again, yet he asked her along time ago for good books to read regarding Hitlers rise to power.
ReplyDelete:D
LOL
DUHhhhhhhhhhhhh......Im Moose!
OK Mike, whats your perspective on the end of the war needledick?
ReplyDeleteHow has it shaped who we are today?
"It insults my intelligence to hear morons like you comparing your fellow Americans to individuals who threw dozens of 5 y.o. kids on burning railroad ties..... ALIVE!"

The rabbit hole is never pretty....period!
It's just awful that George Bush makes them do this.
ReplyDeleteTGIF Volt, Moo Moo, and Mikey -- you party animals! May I pour y'all a drink? I have some Jack Daniels rocks for the Conservatives and a nice Mecca-Cola with hemlock flavored punch for the lib boys.
ReplyDeleteI'll pass on the JD FF, but if'n you got some Jose Cuervo gold handy I'll take a couple of shots straight...
ReplyDeleteI see dkb is very upset about A N Smith's untimely demise. I can see they have much in common.
ReplyDeletePersonally I cried myself to sleep.
You got it buddy. Even got some lime and salt. Party on Garth.
ReplyDeleteActually, Volt, I just recently read something about Bush that impressed me immensely while studing several of my books, however, what he said was probably instilled upon him by one of his advisors.
ReplyDeleteThis has to do with the thread I wanted to post on your enourmously unpopular Ruffian Blog....LOL!
Carl, actually Jim Bullock is doing great, is glowing with health, and seems to be in remission. He not only starred in Hairspray on Broadway last year, but played a teacher character named "Monroe" on my kids' favorite Nick series Ned's Declassified Survival Guide.
ReplyDeleteWe may do a reality show together, but it has to be classy. Right! LOL
Lime and salt is for libs.
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting on your thesis JMM...
KayinMaine,
ReplyDeleteI, too, am crying constantly over Anna Nicole. Maybe it's because we are mothers, I just feel such overwhelming sadness for the grief she went through over her son's death.
Grief killed her more than anything.
God bless her.
Maybe Jim's time with Tammy Faye helped?

Cool Volt....I would appreciate it. Moving my mouse around seeking links pisses me off.....LOL!
ReplyDeleteMike
While I do appreciate your interest in Hitlers rise to power, it is equally important, if not more, that you study his decline and the events that preceded it.
I feel sad when great people, or people who make a contribution to others die.
ReplyDeleteAnna Nicole Smith was no self-made Marilyn Monroe. She was a taker -- not a giver. She made no sacrifices for anyone. She had no dignity and was disgusting to watch.
A N was a pair of huge boobs -- that's all ... and she milked them for all they were worth.
Agreed FF, but I must feel sad for her children......selfish bitch!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you Johnny. While I found many articles which MENTION the show, I can't find one entirely dedicated to it. If you google "The Jim J. and Tammy Faye Show" you come across many snippets about it.
ReplyDeleteI also read it only lasted 4 months. Hmmm? seems like it was longer than that...
"A N was a pair of huge boobs -- that's all ... and she milked them for all they were worth."
ReplyDeleteAt least you've kept abreast of things FF. I personally find the hoopla udderly ridiculous. Definetly not top shelf.
btw, you like the new digs?
ReplyDeleteFF said
ReplyDelete"Anna Nicole Smith was no self-made Marilyn Monroe."
I love Maryilyn and feel intense remorse for her, however, she was found by a photographer while working in a aircraft factory......her rise was not intentional!
Thanx Volt
ReplyDeleteI,ll muster up the courage to move my mouse and look into this.......much too interesting.
Strange Lydia offers no insight into this???
Im sure Jim Bullock has been here many times....why doesnt he offer us some insight as well?
I must admit though, Miss Moo Moo actually thinks hes cute.....WTF???

Indeed I find this incessant volume about voluputousness tidious and not the least bit titillating.
We surprised Jim on the Jim and Tammy Faye show. I must have a tape somewhere. I'll try to find it and convert it to DVD.
ReplyDeleteDeb, Nancy and I all came on the show and gave Jimmy a huge birthday cake. I was holding my toddler.
Well titillation is overrated. Still it's a nice stroll down mammary lane...

A N was our "royalty". In Britain they pay their losers massive sums of money to humiliate themselves with narcissistic excess which the paparazzi captures for public consumption on shows like jerry springer, watched by cretins.

ReplyDeleteYeah, good times. You remember Heather Thomas from "The fall guy" with Lee Majors? I thought she was hotter than Heather Locklear...
ReplyDeleteI don't either anymore FF. I usually flip between Fox news, the Discovery channel and TLC.
ReplyDelete(I like the car and bike shows, American Hot Rod, Overhaulin, Rides and American Chopper...however I can cite Fox's prime time line up by heart!...LOL)
Although when visiting, I am often subjected to reruns of "Becker". I actually like that show even though I have no use for Ted Danson...
ReplyDeleteI'd rather watch Laurie Dhue on Fox News; or watch Sara Evans sing some Country-Western.
ReplyDeleteActually I'm not sure what Laurie Dhue is up to these days. Didn't she go into syndication with Geraldo? She's not on the main FOX news channel anymore.
