All governments lie as I. F. Stone famously observed, but some governments lie more than others. And the neocon Bush regime serves up whoppers as standard fare every day. Why this propensity to lie? There are many reasons, but it is not widely appreciated that the neocons believe in lying on principle. It is the “noble” thing for the elite to do, for the “vulgar” masses, the “herd” will become ungovernable without such lies. This is the idea of the “noble lie” practiced with such success and boldness by Scooter Libby and his co-conspirators and concocted by the political “philosopher” Leo Strauss whose teachings lie at the core of the neoconservative outlook and agenda, so much so that they are sometimes called “Leocons.”

“Fitzgerald, Iraq and the Truth About Pre-War Intelligence.”

This morning on CNN he had thought about things overnight and told one lie after the other. He blamed the democrats on the intelligence committee for not finishing the task.

Now folks there are 540 or more incidents of pukes using the useless intelligence to argue for the war in Iraq. A lot of it on television. The dems want to show how the intelligence was misused by the pukes but the White House is blocking this effort. That is Phase 2, and that is what Roberts as been stonewalling at the request of Rover boy and the WH.

Statements like “a mushroom cloud”, etc., is what the democrats want to put out there, but cant. Now it seems that all this shit might come out in one place and the amurkan people can make up their mind whether they were lying and exaggerating, or what.

Yes, We Know who they are…

Stay Tuned.

Soon as I type it up that is and post it, Give a Few days or so por favor amigos.

Whos that You Say?

It was Osama Bin Ladens CIA operative name when they were supplying the “Freedom Fighters” with weapons.

(Evil Snicker) Heh Heh Heh…

The Dishonesty has caused much harm to Your Party, the Democrats and America in General.

When reading such words as below, it brings great sorrow to heart and mist to the ocular.

Lives have been lost, perhaps needlessly. Grandchildren that should have been, may not be.

This is From a Guy who was in Iraq. Here are his words (David Airhart)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

David: I was in the Marine Corps Infantry. I learned absolutely nothing of value in the rest of the world. I learned how to shoot guns and how to get yelled at a lot.

Ron: Jump school? Medic?

David: Nope.

Ron: I see that you served in both Afghanistan and Iraq. How long were you in both places?

David: I was in Afghanistan for 7 months , starting Christmas day of 2003, and in Iraq for 6 months, starting at the beginning of the war in March 2003.

Ron: Did you do more than one tour either place?

David: No.

Ron: What was a typical week like in country?

David: In Iraq: Mostly doing vehicle check points where we would search vehicles for weapons. We also patrolled cities such as An-Nasiriyah. We searched homes. We would knock on the door. If nobody answered, we would break through the door. We would throw all of their stuff around looking for munitions and stuff to make bombs with.

Ron: What was your impression of the Afghani and Iraqi people?

David: Most of the people that I met were really friendly. They seemed scared, anticipating the worst. The ones I met were cooperative.

Ron: Did it change as you spent more time in their countries?

David: No, not really.

Ron: Now, the big question. What made you decide to oppose the US wars in these countries?

David: Mostly personal reasons. Like the fact that most of the dead bodies that I saw were women and children, innocent civilians. Also, most of my friends that were killed were killed by friendly fire from close air support. It is obvious that there is some hidden agenda behind Bush’s motivation for going to war in Iraq, because they had nothing to do with the 9-11 attacks, and there were no weapons of mass destruction. We should know the real reasons that we are fighting and dying over there. At the very least, we should know that, be it a good or bad reason, it is important that we know why. If it is that crucial that it stays a secret, it is probably too crooked to be worth fighting for anyway.

You’ve got it pal!!

All of this crap about “let’s move on” right now, as if past mistakes need not be corrected, or the present and future consequences need not be examined is part of the current right wing psychobabble. “Let’s move on” is an attempt to obliterate history. It shows a disinterest in learning from past mistakes. But the bottom line is that it is just crap.

Go Rick!!

The administration has used this response many times when they’ve screwed the pooch and gotten caught.

It made me think of the abusive husband who just beat the living crap out of his wife and then tells her, “Don’t think about what just happened, Honey, you’ve got a picnic to plan for Saturday.

That is the true issue, Thank you for being honest.

Now can we get the Trash out of Government and stop the Chest Beating, Name Calling, and Blame Game Dialectics?

Correct me if I’m wrong but have you seen the new CNN/USA/Gallup poll just out showing that not only does junior’s polls stink, but republicans in general are going down the crapper with him? Here’s what it shows in case you missed it.

Better at handling healthcare: Democrats 59%, Republicans 30%. Gasoline prices: Democrats 51%, Republicans 31%. Handling economy: Democrats 50%, Republicans 38%. And the Iraq War? SURPRISE! Democrats 46%, Republicans 40%. I mean, the numbers are so bad that if I was a liberal, I would be laughing my ass off right now! It sure don’t feel good getting our rightwing butts handed to us, does it?

I’m so pissed right now that I’m going to have another beer and give some serious thought on slapping the crap out of the first pencil-necked conservative I run into trying to bullshit me.
