A Modest Proposal
Mr Cheney,
I hereby challenge you to a test of torture. Over the course of a few days, I will have trained professionals administer enhanced interrogation techniques to you. You will be subjected to nothing stronger than we have subjected the detainees that we have held in the War on Terror to. You will be waterboarded, [...]
McCain had Iraq in his sights from the beginning
Want the blueprint for how we got into Iraq? McCain lays it out for all to see.
September 11, 2001: “To be honest with you, Dan, I never thought that an operation of this sophistication and size would take place. I just never did. But I don’t think there’s any doubt that there are countries [...]
The DHS Starts Ripping Off Really Bad Star Trek
And this is how you know that your government exists only to transfer taxpayer funds to their pals — witness: an Electronic ID bracelet that also stuns misbehaving passengers.
Someone at Homeland Security is actually thinking about this device that you’d be fitted with when you check in; that will somehow also be coded to [...]
If you haven’t read this…you really should
Hidden behind that appearance of objectivity, though, is a Pentagon information apparatus that has used those analysts in a campaign to generate favorable news coverage of the administration’s wartime performance, an examination by The New York Times has found.

We are safer
Suicide The large number of attacks — more than double the number in any of the past 25 years — reflects a trend that has surprised and worried U.S. intelligence and military analysts.

Do quotes like this scare you?
“You can’t really repair anything that is broken until you establish security,” said Lt. Col. Dan Barnett, commander of the First Squadron, Second Stryker Cavalry Regiment. “A wall that isolates those who would continue to attack the Iraqi Army and coalition forces can create security conditions that they can go in and rebuild.”
I guess coming [...]
The American People are stupid if
They believed anything Bush said yesterday about “troop withdrawals” and Iraq not being an “endless war”
Once again the only person calling the schmuck out is Olbermann
” Last year he escalated the war in Iraq, today he announced that there would be deescalation beyond July, yet somehow stood there with a straight face and lied about [...]

draft anyone?…no, not crappy Bud lite…
“Today’s Army is out of balance,” Cody said.
General Richard A. Cody graduated from West Point in 1972, flew helicopters, ascended to command the storied 101st Airborne Division, and then, toward the end of his career, settled into management; now, at fifty-seven, he wears four stars as the Army Vice-Chief of Staff.
He continued:
The current demand [...]
I thought I would let you know…
The terrorists won. I think when the President suspends the 4th Ammendment as a country we really should pack it in.
Couple that with the fact that no one in our country is even a little bit outraged (those that matter at least) pretty much makes their winning a slam dunk. Bin Laden 500 [...]

and now a few words from your pResident
Presiden Bush yesterday was at it again trying to urge Democrats to pass a $100,000,000,000.00 spending bill.
One of the lessons of September the 11th is what happens overseas matters to the security of the United States of America, and we must not forget that lesson,” Bush told a gathering of military families at the White [...]
Stricken from the Record
Since 2001, over a million records in the National Archives have been hidden from view, due to fear of terrorists. Here is a fun quiz to see what sorts of things have been removed. Some of the documents were available for 100 years. I just find this silly…
