Bush and the Republicans are losing the War on Terrorism. Retired generals who’ve commanded on the battlefields of Iraq are coming out in droves citing the incompetence of Rumsfeld, and by proxy, the Commander in Chief since he’s the “decider.” The National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) states that our mismanaged invasion of Iraq is allowing the terrorists to recruit more terrorists faster than we are eliminating them. Another words, we’re getting behind and becoming less safe as a result of George W. Bush and the Republican congress’ war policies.
Under President Clinton we captured the terrorists who attacked the WTC in ’93 and convicted them using the Rule of Law. As the threat from al Qaeda grew so did our response, including President Clinton authorizing the killing of bin Laden.
In ’98 Clinton was focused on the terrorist threat and used military strikes against al Qaeda targets. The Republicans, on the other hand were focused on White Water, Travel Gate, File Gate, and finally Monica. While the Republican leadership in this country was focused on the misuse of the Constitution’s articles of Impeachment and claiming President Clinton was using the military to change the news cycle away from the “bad news,” President Clinton was engaged with the destruction of bin Laden and al Qaeda. The Republicans were engaged in the politics of personal destruction.
After the USS Cole bombing, President Clinton set the internal workings of the White House on a war footing to overthrow the Taliban and kill bin Laden, but George Tenet of the CIA and the FBI wouldn’t certify that it was al Qaeda behind the bombings. President Clinton needed the confirmation to get basing rights in Uzbekistan to launch the military offensive. President Bush bestowed the medal of Freedom on Tenet, it must’ve been a “slam dunk” decision.
Finally, on Jan. 26, 2001 6 days after Bush became president, the certification came in — al Qaeda was, in fact, behind the USS Cole bombings. Bush did nothing. Well, that’s not true, he pushed his tax cuts for the uber wealthy agenda and went on vacation for 42% of his early presidency.
While Bush was on vacation we should have been overthrowing the Taliban, destroying al Qaeda and killing bin Laden.
That’s the unvarnished truth. This bullshit the Republicans keep spouting the President Clinton was making this a “law enforcement” issue is, like everything the criminally corrupt conservatives say, a lie.
Standing in front of a “Mission Accomplished” banner doesn’t make it so, and “Staying the Course” is a failed policy.
Voting Republican this year will endanger America of losing its first war.

Mayor asks for 10% increase in spending
By ANGELA GALLOWAY
P-I REPORTER
Mayor Greg Nickels wants to increase Seattle’s general fund spending by more than 10 percent over two years to pay for a broad array of initiatives — from new downtown “park rangers” to a small-business tax break and an overhaul of the city’s oft-troubled Monorail.
“The return of prosperity in our neighborhoods and business districts gives us the resources to improve our basic services,” Nickels said in his budget presentation to the City Council on Monday afternoon. “But we must also remain on guard, mindful of the rough financial waters ahead.”
The mayor has proposed no significant spending cuts, and only modest fee increases to some park services and construction permits.
In his plan to boost Seattle’s general-budget bottom line by $80 million, Nickels banks heavily on a couple of noteworthy uncertainties. For one, he counts on at least $40 million from a transportation tax package, the bulk of which voters have yet to approve. It’s slated for the November ballot. If voters reject it, Nickels’ office would help the council draft a new plan, Deputy Mayor Tim Ceis said.
Also, Nickels’ plan largely ignores a looming $20 million shortfall. The city expects to lose that much income in 2008 unless the state Legislature agrees to rethink business tax changes it adopted in 2003.
Rather than trim spending now, Nickels plans to continue lobbying Olympia. If he fails, he’ll ask the City Council to increase some business taxes over two years to make up $5 million. It’s unclear where Seattle would get the rest.
Seattle is just awesome!
Just keep right on taxing and spending.
No problem.
The sky is the limit.

I so love the odes to the “manly” conservatives, chest-pounding exercises in self-delusion, that our friends on the right post here with frequence. History, of course, evidences an unyielding march to the left. While we experience episodic hiccups in this march, such as the present era when we witness fundamentalist regressive tendencies like the Taliban in Afghanistan and evangelical “Christians” in America’s red states, hiccups always pass. Once Bush and his blindered collaborators finish with their thrashing of rationality and common sense, we will once again, invariably and indubitably, see an expansion of civil liberties, a cultural flowering, and sustainable economic growth. These periods when pouty children raised on fairy tales govern are necessarily followed by eras in which the adults take over again. I have always found the conservatives’ notion that they are the productive, responsible members of society most amusing, almost charming in its naivete. In fact, if conservative ideology had triumphed throughout history, humankind would still be living in caves. Liberalism is the product of the freethinkers, the open-minded, the initiators and creators; these are the people who pushed nomadic clans of bug-eaters into cohesive communities. These people, who recognize the value of community, are responsible for literature, music, science, ethics, and all of those pursuits which make life worth living. Conservatives may take credit for selfishness, anti-intellectualism, and war. Conservative thinking reflects unmerited self-congratulation that is best addressed through prescription pharmaceuticals. Oh, and by the way, liberal gals fuck way better than those of a conservative bent. Conservative gals in bed are much like the federal deficit: just dead crushing weight.

From todays open thread:
82 83
Of course it was not her fatlyingthreatening ass on that Black Hawk. It was not your children. No!
It was my men, my brothers, my team, my country riding in that chopper. Your only connection is that you watched it all from the safety of your living room, passing judgment about what you know nothing. Those men were doing the bidding of their country, protecting your fatlyingthreateningass. They knew the risks. They knew death was a possibility. A soldier knows that it matters not how death finds you. You are still just as dead. You will never understand the meaning of war. You will never understand what it takes to kill another human being. You only see it from your protected little house on your TV screen, while you eat dinner.
I am sickened by the right wings appetite for war and death. Lets nuke ‘em all. Lets send in a few bombs. Lets just take them over. The problem is that you never feel the death. You are not there to see it. This administration will not allow pictures of flag draped coffins to be published. Why do you think that is? You are the dumbest, fucking moron on this blog. You have not one God damn right to pass judgment or to demand the death of another human being. You have never worn the uniform, sworn to protect this country, uphold the constitution. You have never faced a death that results from our own inhumanity. You have never knocked on the door of your soldiers parents home and, without saying a word, told them that their child is dead. Gone. Forever. I have done this. More times than I care to remember. It is true, they know as soon as they see the car park and you get out in your Dress Uniform. Often, you don’t even get to the door. They meet you outside. Some, realizing the pain of this awful duty, try to comfort you. How is that for irony?
You want to argue that the other side started this. What exactly did Saddam start? There are 100s of senior military officers who have resigned their commissions over this “war†on terror. Are they traitors? Are they appeasers?
Hell the fuck no!
They are men of principle, men of conscience who refused to continue to participate in the killing of innocents, ours and theirs, in the name of a war that simply should not be. I swore to uphold the constitution and protect this country. I also swore to serve the President. The first two promises trump the last. Rather than refuse a direct order, or to give an order that was clearly not in line with the first two vows, I left the service when my last reenlistment came up.
I possess the ability to kill. I also possess the ability to reason. That makes me different from you and the rest of the animals in the jungle.
You come to me when you have faced the absolute horror of death. You come to me when you have held the mother of a slain soldier for hours, until she stopped crying long enough to call someone to be with her. You call me when you have stood at the grave site of a soldier as they lay him in the ground. You come to me with your sanctimonious, simple solutions for the worlds troubles when you have done these things. When your child has faced these things. Otherwise, shut the fuck up. You don’t know what you are talking about. You only know you are getting attention.
You will get very little from me from now on.

You, Roger Rabbit and me all have something in common: we’ve been in fire fights, we’ve seen the worst of war and buried those results. You write from the authority of experience, I’ve written similar thoughts.
Until someone has been in our situation, experienced the silence before, the noise of extreme violence, the unforgettable smells, the images that are burned in each individual’s mind and the mental journey each soldier must take by themselves contemplating Man’s inhumanity inflicted on each other.
Those who have, know that the military option is the very last option at the disposal of the government. It’s irony is that it is born of diplomatic failure and ONLY ends in diplomatic success.
George W. Bush did a statesman’s job of bringing to bear diplomatic pressure to allow the UN weapons inspectors into Iraq. However, for reasons only know to George W. Bush and his inner most circle of confidants, he rushed the weapons inspectors out of Iraq and set the nation on a course of reckless war.
The truth that we can reason from the events we wittnessed is that George W. Bush realized that Saddam Hussein did NOT have a viable weapons program or “stockpiles” of WMD’s. If the UN inspectors certifed complicance of Iraq with UN resolutions, then all the bans, trade embargos, and no fly zones would have to be lifted and the designs of the neoconservatives to overthrow Iraq that go back to 1998 would have been lost.
In no uncertain terms, regardless of the lives lost or treasure squandered, they were not going to allow that to happen. What we are witnessing is the gross “Incompetence of Ideology” that is conservatism. It is a failed model of governing like communisum, fascism, nazism, dictatorships, war lords and caste systems.
Conservatism is proven to be a failed model of governing not by its opponents, but by the very people who have strived for decades to promotes its ideals.
Conservatives have ideas aplenty, the problem is they are generally bad for the masses and grand for the elite. America is in the midst of its worst Constitutional crisis and only those who are blinded by loyalty to one man, their president, and not the the ideals of the Constitution are to blame.
Those people come in the forms of followers like JCH, ASS, MTR who follow people like Bush, Cheney, Abramoff, Duke Cunningham, Ney, DeLay, Ken Lay, Fastow, Safavian, etc, etc, etc.
Radical Islamic extremist share in common the values of Conservative Christians. Both have hi-jacked great religions and poisoned them with the ideology. The don’t listen to opposing views, they won’t reason with others, they call all who challenge them infidels or morally bankrupt and enemies. Their tools of persuasion are fear, terror, violence, isolation, and torture.
The real enemy of America is in our presence and the enemy of our free-thinking, liberal Forefathers is conservatism.

Is torture right or wrong? I mean in the moral sense. Let’s go see…
Conference of Major Superiors of Men (the Holy See officially recognizes CMSM as the national representative body for men in religious and apostolic communities in the United States):
“CMSM condemns torture in all its forms regardless of putative justification, and encourages support and help for victims of torture throughout the world, but especially in areas under the control of the United States Government.”
United Methodist Church (Bush’s church):
“The Social Principles of The United Methodist Church condemns ‘…torture of persons by governments for any purpose,’ and asserts that it violates Christian teachings. The church also through its Social Principles further declares, ‘we oppose capital punishment and urge its elimination from all criminal codes.’ ”
National Council of Churches:
“…we find any and all use of torture unacceptable and contrary to U.S. and international legal norms. We find it particularly abhorrent that our nation’s lawmakers would fail to approve the pending legislation disavowing the use of torture by any entity on behalf of the United States government.”
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America:
“Our priorities are to:
– oppose genocide and other grievous violations of human rights such as torture, religious and racial oppression, forced conscription (impressment), forced labor, and war crimes (including organized rape);”
Presbyterian Church (USA):
“we declare that the following acts shock the Christian conscience and are a cause for Christian repentance:
1. torture and related violations of law by military and civilian agents of the government of the United States in the maltreatment of persons detained at Guantanamo Bay, Abu Ghraib Prison, and elsewhere;”
Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association:
“WHEREAS the use of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment of human beings is in direct violation of Jewish tradition and, in particular, of the Jewish view that every human being is created in the image of God and;
WHEREAS torture shatters and defiles the image of God…
the Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association calls upon the government of the United States:
1) To affirm publicly its commitment to upholding the letter and spirit of the laws regulating interrogation and detention, including the Constitution of the United States, Acts of Congress, and the international treaties that it has signed and ratified, including the Geneva Conventions.
2) To allow every person in the custody of the U.S. military, military contractors, or intelligence officials visits by the International Committee of the Red Cross, in accordance with U.S. obligations under international law.
3) To reject the practice (referred to as “extraordinary rendition”) in which certain prisoners are sent to countries which use extreme forms of torture in interrogations.”

“We assess that the global jihadist movement is decentralized, lacks a coherent global stragety, and is becoming more diffuse. New jihadist networks and cells, with anti-American agendas, are increasingly likely to emerge.

Here’s what the NIE actually says: “jihadist networks and cells, with anti-American agendas, are increasingly likely to emerge. The confluence of shared purpose and dispersed actors will make it harder to find and undermine jihadist groups.”

Sept. 25, 2006 — The shooting of a Houston police officer has sparked a new battle over immigration.
Juan Leonardo Quintero, an illegal immigrant, has been charged with killing a Houston police officer last week after a routine traffic stop.
Police Chief Harold Hurtt blamed the federal government for failing to secure U.S. borders.
Quintero allegedly shot Officer Rodney Johnson four times in the head while in handcuffs in the back seat of his patrol car.
Johnson arrested Quintero during a routine traffic stop for speeding but apparently missed the suspect’s gun in a pat-down search.
Following the shooting, a video showed Houston police officers pulling open the back doors of Johnson’s patrol car and yanking the suspect out of the back seat.
“It’s very easy to make a mistake. I am not saying a mistake was made,” one Houston police officer said. “Unfortunately, we are in the business where a mistake can kill you.”
The suspect should not have been in the United States.
Quintero was deported in 2004 after a conviction for indecency with a child.
“The subject was deported, and yet he came back, so if the government fulfilled their responsibility of protecting the border we would probably not be standing here today,” Hurtt said.
The Houston Police Department has been struggling this year to deal with the influx of Katrina evacuees and an immigration problem that is only getting worse.

Hey, Smeg, you lied to me. You said yesterday that all the generals that were coming out against the war were Democrats. But, Batiste is a life-long Republican who turned down his last star to retire and come out against this administration.
Brilliant!
Looks like Queen Chrissie thinks a toll on the proposed 520 bridge is in order. It must be quite a shock being treated like the barbarians of Pierce County who have a toll for the Narrow Bridge.
Very clever, I went and bought a t-shirt. Censorship, in any form, should affect the sensibility of all Americans.
Bush and the Republicans are losing the War on Terrorism. Retired generals who’ve commanded on the battlefields of Iraq are coming out in droves citing the incompetence of Rumsfeld, and by proxy, the Commander in Chief since he’s the “decider.” The National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) states that our mismanaged invasion of Iraq is allowing the terrorists to recruit more terrorists faster than we are eliminating them. Another words, we’re getting behind and becoming less safe as a result of George W. Bush and the Republican congress’ war policies.
Under President Clinton we captured the terrorists who attacked the WTC in ’93 and convicted them using the Rule of Law. As the threat from al Qaeda grew so did our response, including President Clinton authorizing the killing of bin Laden.
In ’98 Clinton was focused on the terrorist threat and used military strikes against al Qaeda targets. The Republicans, on the other hand were focused on White Water, Travel Gate, File Gate, and finally Monica. While the Republican leadership in this country was focused on the misuse of the Constitution’s articles of Impeachment and claiming President Clinton was using the military to change the news cycle away from the “bad news,” President Clinton was engaged with the destruction of bin Laden and al Qaeda. The Republicans were engaged in the politics of personal destruction.
After the USS Cole bombing, President Clinton set the internal workings of the White House on a war footing to overthrow the Taliban and kill bin Laden, but George Tenet of the CIA and the FBI wouldn’t certify that it was al Qaeda behind the bombings. President Clinton needed the confirmation to get basing rights in Uzbekistan to launch the military offensive. President Bush bestowed the medal of Freedom on Tenet, it must’ve been a “slam dunk” decision.
Finally, on Jan. 26, 2001 6 days after Bush became president, the certification came in — al Qaeda was, in fact, behind the USS Cole bombings. Bush did nothing. Well, that’s not true, he pushed his tax cuts for the uber wealthy agenda and went on vacation for 42% of his early presidency.
While Bush was on vacation we should have been overthrowing the Taliban, destroying al Qaeda and killing bin Laden.
That’s the unvarnished truth. This bullshit the Republicans keep spouting the President Clinton was making this a “law enforcement” issue is, like everything the criminally corrupt conservatives say, a lie.
Standing in front of a “Mission Accomplished” banner doesn’t make it so, and “Staying the Course” is a failed policy.
Voting Republican this year will endanger America of losing its first war.

Mayor asks for 10% increase in spending
By ANGELA GALLOWAY
P-I REPORTER
Mayor Greg Nickels wants to increase Seattle’s general fund spending by more than 10 percent over two years to pay for a broad array of initiatives — from new downtown “park rangers” to a small-business tax break and an overhaul of the city’s oft-troubled Monorail.
“The return of prosperity in our neighborhoods and business districts gives us the resources to improve our basic services,” Nickels said in his budget presentation to the City Council on Monday afternoon. “But we must also remain on guard, mindful of the rough financial waters ahead.”
The mayor has proposed no significant spending cuts, and only modest fee increases to some park services and construction permits.
In his plan to boost Seattle’s general-budget bottom line by $80 million, Nickels banks heavily on a couple of noteworthy uncertainties. For one, he counts on at least $40 million from a transportation tax package, the bulk of which voters have yet to approve. It’s slated for the November ballot. If voters reject it, Nickels’ office would help the council draft a new plan, Deputy Mayor Tim Ceis said.
Also, Nickels’ plan largely ignores a looming $20 million shortfall. The city expects to lose that much income in 2008 unless the state Legislature agrees to rethink business tax changes it adopted in 2003.
Rather than trim spending now, Nickels plans to continue lobbying Olympia. If he fails, he’ll ask the City Council to increase some business taxes over two years to make up $5 million. It’s unclear where Seattle would get the rest.
Seattle is just awesome!
Just keep right on taxing and spending.
No problem.
The sky is the limit.

I so love the odes to the “manly” conservatives, chest-pounding exercises in self-delusion, that our friends on the right post here with frequence. History, of course, evidences an unyielding march to the left. While we experience episodic hiccups in this march, such as the present era when we witness fundamentalist regressive tendencies like the Taliban in Afghanistan and evangelical “Christians” in America’s red states, hiccups always pass. Once Bush and his blindered collaborators finish with their thrashing of rationality and common sense, we will once again, invariably and indubitably, see an expansion of civil liberties, a cultural flowering, and sustainable economic growth. These periods when pouty children raised on fairy tales govern are necessarily followed by eras in which the adults take over again. I have always found the conservatives’ notion that they are the productive, responsible members of society most amusing, almost charming in its naivete. In fact, if conservative ideology had triumphed throughout history, humankind would still be living in caves. Liberalism is the product of the freethinkers, the open-minded, the initiators and creators; these are the people who pushed nomadic clans of bug-eaters into cohesive communities. These people, who recognize the value of community, are responsible for literature, music, science, ethics, and all of those pursuits which make life worth living. Conservatives may take credit for selfishness, anti-intellectualism, and war. Conservative thinking reflects unmerited self-congratulation that is best addressed through prescription pharmaceuticals. Oh, and by the way, liberal gals fuck way better than those of a conservative bent. Conservative gals in bed are much like the federal deficit: just dead crushing weight.

From todays open thread:
82 83
Of course it was not her fatlyingthreatening ass on that Black Hawk. It was not your children. No!
It was my men, my brothers, my team, my country riding in that chopper. Your only connection is that you watched it all from the safety of your living room, passing judgment about what you know nothing. Those men were doing the bidding of their country, protecting your fatlyingthreateningass. They knew the risks. They knew death was a possibility. A soldier knows that it matters not how death finds you. You are still just as dead. You will never understand the meaning of war. You will never understand what it takes to kill another human being. You only see it from your protected little house on your TV screen, while you eat dinner.
I am sickened by the right wings appetite for war and death. Lets nuke ‘em all. Lets send in a few bombs. Lets just take them over. The problem is that you never feel the death. You are not there to see it. This administration will not allow pictures of flag draped coffins to be published. Why do you think that is? You are the dumbest, fucking moron on this blog. You have not one God damn right to pass judgment or to demand the death of another human being. You have never worn the uniform, sworn to protect this country, uphold the constitution. You have never faced a death that results from our own inhumanity. You have never knocked on the door of your soldiers parents home and, without saying a word, told them that their child is dead. Gone. Forever. I have done this. More times than I care to remember. It is true, they know as soon as they see the car park and you get out in your Dress Uniform. Often, you don’t even get to the door. They meet you outside. Some, realizing the pain of this awful duty, try to comfort you. How is that for irony?
You want to argue that the other side started this. What exactly did Saddam start? There are 100s of senior military officers who have resigned their commissions over this “war†on terror. Are they traitors? Are they appeasers?
Hell the fuck no!
They are men of principle, men of conscience who refused to continue to participate in the killing of innocents, ours and theirs, in the name of a war that simply should not be. I swore to uphold the constitution and protect this country. I also swore to serve the President. The first two promises trump the last. Rather than refuse a direct order, or to give an order that was clearly not in line with the first two vows, I left the service when my last reenlistment came up.
I possess the ability to kill. I also possess the ability to reason. That makes me different from you and the rest of the animals in the jungle.
You come to me when you have faced the absolute horror of death. You come to me when you have held the mother of a slain soldier for hours, until she stopped crying long enough to call someone to be with her. You call me when you have stood at the grave site of a soldier as they lay him in the ground. You come to me with your sanctimonious, simple solutions for the worlds troubles when you have done these things. When your child has faced these things. Otherwise, shut the fuck up. You don’t know what you are talking about. You only know you are getting attention.
You will get very little from me from now on.

My Left Foot:
You, Roger Rabbit and me all have something in common: we’ve been in fire fights, we’ve seen the worst of war and buried those results. You write from the authority of experience, I’ve written similar thoughts.
Until someone has been in our situation, experienced the silence before, the noise of extreme violence, the unforgettable smells, the images that are burned in each individual’s mind and the mental journey each soldier must take by themselves contemplating Man’s inhumanity inflicted on each other.
Those who have, know that the military option is the very last option at the disposal of the government. It’s irony is that it is born of diplomatic failure and ONLY ends in diplomatic success.
George W. Bush did a statesman’s job of bringing to bear diplomatic pressure to allow the UN weapons inspectors into Iraq. However, for reasons only know to George W. Bush and his inner most circle of confidants, he rushed the weapons inspectors out of Iraq and set the nation on a course of reckless war.
The truth that we can reason from the events we wittnessed is that George W. Bush realized that Saddam Hussein did NOT have a viable weapons program or “stockpiles” of WMD’s. If the UN inspectors certifed complicance of Iraq with UN resolutions, then all the bans, trade embargos, and no fly zones would have to be lifted and the designs of the neoconservatives to overthrow Iraq that go back to 1998 would have been lost.
In no uncertain terms, regardless of the lives lost or treasure squandered, they were not going to allow that to happen. What we are witnessing is the gross “Incompetence of Ideology” that is conservatism. It is a failed model of governing like communisum, fascism, nazism, dictatorships, war lords and caste systems.
Conservatism is proven to be a failed model of governing not by its opponents, but by the very people who have strived for decades to promotes its ideals.
Conservatives have ideas aplenty, the problem is they are generally bad for the masses and grand for the elite. America is in the midst of its worst Constitutional crisis and only those who are blinded by loyalty to one man, their president, and not the the ideals of the Constitution are to blame.
Those people come in the forms of followers like JCH, ASS, MTR who follow people like Bush, Cheney, Abramoff, Duke Cunningham, Ney, DeLay, Ken Lay, Fastow, Safavian, etc, etc, etc.
Radical Islamic extremist share in common the values of Conservative Christians. Both have hi-jacked great religions and poisoned them with the ideology. The don’t listen to opposing views, they won’t reason with others, they call all who challenge them infidels or morally bankrupt and enemies. Their tools of persuasion are fear, terror, violence, isolation, and torture.
The real enemy of America is in our presence and the enemy of our free-thinking, liberal Forefathers is conservatism.

Is torture right or wrong? I mean in the moral sense. Let’s go see…
Conference of Major Superiors of Men (the Holy See officially recognizes CMSM as the national representative body for men in religious and apostolic communities in the United States):
“CMSM condemns torture in all its forms regardless of putative justification, and encourages support and help for victims of torture throughout the world, but especially in areas under the control of the United States Government.”
United Methodist Church (Bush’s church):
“The Social Principles of The United Methodist Church condemns ‘…torture of persons by governments for any purpose,’ and asserts that it violates Christian teachings. The church also through its Social Principles further declares, ‘we oppose capital punishment and urge its elimination from all criminal codes.’ ”
National Council of Churches:
“…we find any and all use of torture unacceptable and contrary to U.S. and international legal norms. We find it particularly abhorrent that our nation’s lawmakers would fail to approve the pending legislation disavowing the use of torture by any entity on behalf of the United States government.”
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America:
“Our priorities are to:
– oppose genocide and other grievous violations of human rights such as torture, religious and racial oppression, forced conscription (impressment), forced labor, and war crimes (including organized rape);”
Presbyterian Church (USA):
“we declare that the following acts shock the Christian conscience and are a cause for Christian repentance:
1. torture and related violations of law by military and civilian agents of the government of the United States in the maltreatment of persons detained at Guantanamo Bay, Abu Ghraib Prison, and elsewhere;”
Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association:
“WHEREAS the use of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment of human beings is in direct violation of Jewish tradition and, in particular, of the Jewish view that every human being is created in the image of God and;
WHEREAS torture shatters and defiles the image of God…
the Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association calls upon the government of the United States:
1) To affirm publicly its commitment to upholding the letter and spirit of the laws regulating interrogation and detention, including the Constitution of the United States, Acts of Congress, and the international treaties that it has signed and ratified, including the Geneva Conventions.
2) To allow every person in the custody of the U.S. military, military contractors, or intelligence officials visits by the International Committee of the Red Cross, in accordance with U.S. obligations under international law.
3) To reject the practice (referred to as “extraordinary rendition”) in which certain prisoners are sent to countries which use extreme forms of torture in interrogations.”
The consensus? Not so much.

“We assess that the global jihadist movement is decentralized, lacks a coherent global stragety, and is becoming more diffuse.”
Cue the conservative cheering section. Here’s what the WHOLE paragraph says:
“We assess that the global jihadist movement is decentralized, lacks a coherent global stragety, and is becoming more diffuse. New jihadist networks and cells, with anti-American agendas, are increasingly likely to emerge. The confluence of shared purpose and dispersed actors will make it harder to find and undermine jihadist groups.”
Which was pretty much what I had replied without having seeing this NIE. But don’t believe me. Read it for yourself.
Whoops. IT was MWS who posted the earlier pulled-out-of-context quotes.
Here’s what I replied to the quote I just poseted above:
MWS quoted: “A large body of reporting indicates that people identifying themselves as jihadists is increasing…however, they are largely decentralized, lack a coherent strategy and are becoming more diffuse.”
I replied: Another way of saying that al Qaeda has effectively “franchised” terrorism, allowing ops to proceed without central direction, making them harder to detect and track.
Here’s what the NIE actually says: “jihadist networks and cells, with anti-American agendas, are increasingly likely to emerge. The confluence of shared purpose and dispersed actors will make it harder to find and undermine jihadist groups.”
Makes me kind of prescient, doesn’t it?

Nice post. I just read that the demographic sector that most supports Bush’s policies on interrogation of terrorist suspects is that of evangelical “Christian” Republicans. Such support is utterly incompatible with the message of the Gospel. These people live in a Neverland, which rational minds will never penetrate.

The song is brilliant, and technically well done too.
Fact: Muuuuuuuuslims who are dead can no longer wage “jihad”. Even Carl Grossman understands this. Now, second point: Dead Democrats can still vote, even without ID.
Sen. Hillary Clinton defended her husband’s angry performance on Fox News Channel this weekend, saying he did a ‘great job’ on national security. Teresa defended Carl, saying he does a “great” job. Anyone else see a “trend” here????????????? hehe, JCH
Sept. 25, 2006 — The shooting of a Houston police officer has sparked a new battle over immigration.
Juan Leonardo Quintero, an illegal immigrant, has been charged with killing a Houston police officer last week after a routine traffic stop.
Police Chief Harold Hurtt blamed the federal government for failing to secure U.S. borders.
Quintero allegedly shot Officer Rodney Johnson four times in the head while in handcuffs in the back seat of his patrol car.
Johnson arrested Quintero during a routine traffic stop for speeding but apparently missed the suspect’s gun in a pat-down search.
Following the shooting, a video showed Houston police officers pulling open the back doors of Johnson’s patrol car and yanking the suspect out of the back seat.
“It’s very easy to make a mistake. I am not saying a mistake was made,” one Houston police officer said. “Unfortunately, we are in the business where a mistake can kill you.”
The suspect should not have been in the United States.
Quintero was deported in 2004 after a conviction for indecency with a child.
“The subject was deported, and yet he came back, so if the government fulfilled their responsibility of protecting the border we would probably not be standing here today,” Hurtt said.
The Houston Police Department has been struggling this year to deal with the influx of Katrina evacuees and an immigration problem that is only getting worse.
Border Patrol said thousands of illegal immigrants crossed into the United States each month.
Johnson received a commendation for valor for pulling several children from a burning building.
He leaves behind a wife who is also a police officer and their five children. [……..As long as illegals vote Democrat, nothing will be done. Tough shit for the dead cop and his family. In the next 5 years, add another 20 million “Democrat-to be” illegals.]
Daddy love,
Isn’t that report written by the same Intelligence guys who said there were Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq?
You didn’t believe them then – why do you think they are right now?
Where is the investigation on the leak to the NY Times?
When is a special prosecutor being appointed?
When is the Times editor going to jail for publishing classified information?

Do the words free and open press have any meaning to you at all?

Are you not troubled by your government lying to you? Or is it OK if it is in your “best” interest?
If that doesn’t turn your stomach enough, please note that the State Employees Pension Fund is UNDERFUNDED now by $4 Billion AND the Health Benefit Plan is also UNDERFUNDED by an undetermined amount which is also likely in the Billions.

But da moonbats are in charge. Do I see a sinking ship. WHere are the Republicans on this issue? Why are they not using this to hammer the state donks?

By the way, I don’t hate you. I despise you. I loathe you. But I don’t hate. That would just not be very Christian of me.
-Commentby My Left Foot— 9/26/06@ 1:28 pm
So now you’re a Christian? Tough keeping your stories straight eh? Maybe Teresa can help you out.
You hate me/you don’t hate me, you loathe me/you don’t loathe me, you despise me/you don’t despise… pick and choose, sweetcheeks because, (pay very close attention now) YOUR OPINION IS INCONSEQUENTIAL TO ME.
You and that twit that was stupid enough to marry you, a vile, vicious, hate-filled, foul-mouthed punk, seem to think if you pound out well written “stories” about your oh so glorious and pity poor me painful past in the “military” that somehow that gives anything you say credence and weight.
News flash: it doesn’t.
I don’t give a far rats ass if you lick Teresa’s boots when she walks in from where ever the hell it is she goes when she leaves you home alone, I don’t care if you wore a uniform, I don’t care if you didn’t. I don’t care about the scars on your belly or your non-existant soul.
One thing I did catch though, sweetcheeks, is that your tantrum trumped your “honor”..
I swore to uphold the constitution and protect this country. I also swore to serve the President. The first two promises trump the last. Rather than refuse a direct order, or to give an order that was clearly not in line with the first two vows, I left the service when my last reenlistment came up. -Commentby My Left Foot— 9/26/06@ 12:41 pm
Now, gee, why doesn’t that surprise me?
You did get one thing right though, sweetcheeks:

Hey, Smeg, you lied to me. You said yesterday that all the generals that were coming out against the war were Democrats. But, Batiste is a life-long Republican who turned down his last star to retire and come out against this administration.
What do you have to say for yourself?
