So, Karen Hughes was up for confirmation for her new post on Capitol Hill, and NOT ONE SINGLE DEMOCRATIC MEMBER OF THE USSFRC could be arsed to show up and ask questions?

Benador Associates is a public relations firm that promotes conservative writers and speakers dealing with U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East.

So there are these peculiar archipelagoes of opaqueness in the world of news, where journalists are at the mercy of single sources that appear solid. It is very dangerous for the US cable news channels to depend so heavily for analysis of things like Iraq and the war on terror, on retired military officers and on well-connected cyphers like Walid Phares. (Hint to cable news personnel departments: if an academic has a spotty publication record and is at some small place or doesn’t have a proper university post, but you get a call pushing him from some rightwing think tank in Washington or from the Benador Agency, be suspicious).

Q: What is the fundamental difference between a Baathist and a Bushist?

A: Two letters.

HAHA

He has NO credibility with me whatsoever.

As for why the Dems ducked Karen Hughes? GET A CLUE. The Dems = GOP lite.

Face it. The Republic is D E A D.

Roberts authorized and rubber stamped the “Imperial” Presidency for der Shrubenfueher, that’s who he is.

He has now fully authorized (and as a SCOTUS judge will affirm) Chimpy’s unfettered right to incarcerate ANYONE on a complete WHIM and at his SOLE UNFETTERED DISCRETION.

You remain at liberty solely at the Preznit’s pleasure. The Executive will circumvent constitutional law through Executive Order, incacerate, try and convict you. Judiciary need not concern itself with a thing so insignificant as the continuing liberty of all American taxpayers and citizens of the world AT LARGE.

The do-nothings in Congress have just invented a new crime “Narco-terrorism” which effectively ties any drug-related activity (sales, possession, use, etc.) to TERRORISM, which places these activities within the ambit of that conduct to which the “extraordinary rendition” rights of the Executive apply.

Get it?

WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER

I think thinkprogress is suggesting that Biden is behaving like Zell Miller.

Bush’s approval ratings are lower than they have ever been, but congressional Democrats just can’t seem to absorb that fact. What are they waiting for?
Think Progress tells the sorry story of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee meeting…

“What causes the documented high level of civilian casualties — 3,000 – 3,400 [October 7, 2001 thru March 2002] civilian deaths — in the U.S. air war upon Afghanistan? The explanation is the apparent willingness of U.S. military strategists to fire missiles into and drop bombs upon, heavily populated areas of Afghanistan.”

When U.S. warplanes strafed [with AC-130 gunships] the farming village of Chowkar-Karez, 25 miles north of Kandahar on October 22-23rd, 2001, killing at least 93 civilians, a Pentagon official said, “the people there are dead because we wanted them dead.” The reason? They sympathized with the Taliban [our former allies]. When asked about the Chowkar incident, Rumsfeld replied, “I cannot deal with that particular village.”

To lighten a bit: Great analogy, Ken #10, Pro wrestling

One of my current neighbors is the former “Doctor Death,” and he has some great stories of the choreographed matches with the likes of Gorgeous George. The analogy with our “representatives” is outstanding. They go through the motions for us dumb clucks in the paying audience, and force us to take sides with each other, as I am doing with ‘fake but incomplete’. They’re playing golf with each other and lifting glasses at their exclusive clubs while we duke it out on these websites. I thought we were paying THEM to duke it out? Who needs them if they always agree with each other? We need a “peoples congress” (and perhaps a ’shadow government’) where Clandy, Fake, Mike, Ken and all us other yappers can let it fly. As Edward Abbey said: Democracy — rule by the people — sounds like a fine thing; we should try it sometime in America.
