TORTURED SOULS PRACTICE TORTURE

Gitmo abuses need full accounting

If the Constitution and law can be twisted to suit the White House in this situation, how long before we who strongly disagree with the Bushcheney begin to feel the force of this evil crew?

This blogger has said many things that could not be said in a country without constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.

Memo to the government:                                                                It's always better to "do the right thing".

FOX ?news?

The so-called FOX news channel is owned by some silly old dude named Rupert something-or-other. I never was sure of it until today when it came to me.

It is (drumroll),        Rupert Merdeflop

 

 

Tacky ATT Commercial

I really  dislike the ATT commercial currently showing on tv concerning their internet access.

Some jerk in a suit is standing on a deserted beach holding a laptop computer with a wireless adaptor is crowing about finding the internet. Behind him in the sand is an old twin engine airplane with "Amelia" painted on the nose.

TACKY!

Obama and Public Campaign Funding

The Obama campaign has decided to pass on public financing and stick with his proven fundraising system that has been very successful in taping small contributors.

The Republicans have started to pound him for "flip-flopping" on funding. BUT, this could be tactical as well as financial. It could force McBush to also give up public funding, and go hat-in-hand to the fat cats for enough money to be able to keep up with the opposition. Then Obama has a potent issue to fire away at him.

"Look at us. We have the support of the little guy, the man in the street, the soccer moms, etc, while the opposition has to go begging to the big money guys. And by-the-way, these big money guys brought you the mortgage crunch, the pending failure of investment banks, the Iraq war, blah-blah-blah", and so on and so forth.                                                

Not to mention they run on private money, not on the back of the taxpayer.

SOCK IT TO 'EM!!

Looks like fun!!

 

OBAMA FOR PRES. JOE BIDEN FOR VEEP?

The brilliance of mind, the range of vision and the soaring rhetoric of Barack Obama would be well balanced by Senator Joe Biden as his vice-presidential running mate. "Uncle Joe" as some of us like to call him has very long experience in the Senate and is known in many halls of power as a master of foreign affairs. When he speaks, you can "take it to the bank".

This could be a perfect match. Youth and age. Vision and pragmatism. Protestant and Catholic. Black and white. And most important, both very smart.

OK guys, you have the word now. Get busy!

WHAT IS THE MEANING
 
THE GREAT AND GOOD LEAVE TOO SOON
 
WHAT ARE WE TO DO

McWho?

John McKeating5, or John McWhoeverspockethesin is all in favor or off-shore oil drilling. I guess that means the oil companies are major contributors to his campaign.

The average voter who is probably clueless about this doesn't understand that if offshore drilling is started today, experts say no oil will be in the pipeline for as long as 20 years in the future.

Surely we can develop better sources of non, or at least minimally polluting energy that doesn't seriously deplete natural resources.

The longterm goal should be that oil is no longer burned to produce energy. Better it is saved to use in manufacturing and for lubricaton.

Save today. Live better tomorrow.
