		<description>The whole thing, of course, is based upon the questionable premise that the U.S. &quot;should&quot; be the predominant power in the world.  THAT is the thing you should be going after the Bush Mob on, not some piddling leak case.  The relevant question is, who&#039;s gonna disarm us?

THE MOB  by David Venhuizen

The Bushy-tailed Mobster came â€˜round here
Talking of his need
I said no wait a minute, man
Youâ€™ve got need mixed up with greed
Come on, he said, thereâ€™s a madman loose
Everybody get on my bus
I looked back at the only madman I could see
Said tell me, whoâ€™s gonna disarm US?

CHORUS
Whoâ€™s gonna disarm us, my friend?
When the world says donâ€™t bombâ€”discuss
So when the Bushy-tailed Mobster kicks up his next fuss
Tell me, whoâ€™s gonna disarm US?</description>

		<description>Impeach the murdering bastards that send our youth to their deaths for their oil profits.

Impeach the murdering bastards that have bankrupted the treasury.

Impeach the murdering bastards that make the rich richer and the poor dumber and more poor.

He also is dislexic, paranoid, and has bouts of temper that border on insanity.

He is a pathetic excuse for an American.

		<description>Sexless, you ignorant Nazi....

I have seen the documentation on dumbya (you call him dear leader) and his childhood obsession of torturing animals.

You spout your lies, and long drawn out tripe and you actually think people read your insane posts filled with the rantings of a biggot, fascist shrubite talking points/inaccuracies, but you are mistaken.  Some may respond when they have had enough of your tripe, but we don&#039;t actually think you offer anything of value here.

So, like someone else said earlier about you... you are truly simple and pathetic.</description>

		<description>Mighty Aphrodite: One can imagine what you look like based on what you write: Teeth bared, fangs dripping with bile; a pockmarked face from years of deep, cystic acne, which to this day persists, scaring your face, your soul; halitosis that offends from ten feet away; body odor that couldnâ€™t be cured even after a twenty-four our douching; morbid obesity; a balding scalp. And those are your good points. What a misguided, vile pig you are. You arenâ€™t even worth pity. Quit boring people with your nonsensical blather.</description>

		<description>Zwack,

You aren&#039;t able to differentiate between the actual blog, LGF, and the comments on the blog, apparently. Just look at this blog here, ThinkProgress. You have me coming in here trying to have a reasonable debate, and people just start calling me Nazi, fascist, KKK, and I read some calling for the execution of Bush and others.

Please, don&#039;t tell me that this isn&#039;t as extreme as the commenting at LGF. That still has nothing to do with the blog LGF itself. Of course it attracts commenters that are a bit on the fringe of the right, but blogs like this one attract the same thing from the opposite side.

Does that warrant me in calling ThinkProgress &quot;Think Fascist Progress&quot;? Of course not.

I mean seriously, if we go to DailyKos and Democratic Underground, tell me, please tell me, that you don&#039;t find the same kind of appalling comments as you do on LGF. You are kidding yourself. It has nothing to do with LGF itself, and you know it.

mighty aphrodite,

You must have been talking about yourself and the people attacking me on this blog when you said:

&lt;em&gt;They are wrong, they know they are wrong, but when someone points this out in any fashion they go into attack mode.&lt;/em&gt;

The problem is, I haven&#039;t attacked anyone. You guys attacked me once I set foot on this blog. Doesn&#039;t that mean that you are wrong, and you know you are wrong, and when I pointed it out, all of you started attacking me with ad hominem?

I never did that towards you guys. You attacked me.

&lt;em&gt;That smirking chimp in the WH is pure evil. As a little boy he tortured little animals with fireworks. As you know most little boys that do that type of thing donâ€™t grow up to be pResident, they grow up to be serial killers.&lt;/em&gt;

So now you are writing Bush&#039;s biography for him without knowing the slightest thing about his childhood? Gee, how... intellectual.

big papa,

&lt;em&gt;Scott Ritter, Hans Blix, Paul Oâ€™Neill, Richard Clark, General Shinseki, Brent Scowcroft, Joe Wilson- all Republicans, all American patriots who chose truth over deception, all proven justified in their individual assessments of the situations in which their expertise was called upon for comment/advice, all savagely attacked by the Bushites and their worthless inbred disciples.&lt;/em&gt;

Ehm... Hans Blix is not even American. LOL. Joe Wilson hasn&#039;t been a Republican for a long time now. I don&#039;t know about the others, but you have just gotten two of them wrong. I wouldn&#039;t be surprised if you got a few more of them wrong as well. Hans Blix, a Swede, is suddenly an American patriot.

Yeah, I guess facts don&#039;t mean much when you are trying to make a farce of a statement...

I don&#039;t remember the Bush administration attacking Scott Ritter, the wannabe child-molester. Shinseki wasn&#039;t attacked either, he resigned honorably. Richard Clarke and Joe Wilson have lied their asses off for partisan purposes.

When you pretend that only one side is &quot;evil&quot;, you are only fooling yourself. There are transparently partistan hacks on both sides, not just one.

&lt;em&gt;Make no mistake, a new Civil War is afoot and it ainâ€™t just in Iraq! &lt;/em&gt;

Yeah, overthrow the duly elected government of the USA. How... democratic!</description>

		<description>Zwack you are trying to get your point across to sextongs and his/hers/its mind is incapable of critical thought.

Its views are myopic, just like the smirking chimp in the WH.  They are wrong, they know they are wrong, but when someone points this out in any fashion they go into attack mode.

The attack mode is standard policy for all those type of wack-o-reich-wing types.  They pretend to be civil, but are clearly projecting their own feelings of wrong onto others.  Psych 101.  Anyone with a basic knowledge of human behavior knows the signs to look for.

That smirking chimp in the WH is pure evil.  As a little boy he tortured little animals with fireworks.  As you know most little boys that do that type of thing don&#039;t grow up to be pResident, they grow up to be serial killers.  Either way, they grow up the same. 

A person that kills 2-40 is called a serial killer.  A person in power that murders tens of thousands is called a leader.  Go figure.</description>

		<description>Seixon,

&quot;Little Green Fascists? Look, I have many different blogs on my blogroll, so just picking out one of them isnâ€™t very conclusive. Iâ€™d also ask why you call them that. Do you call everyone who disagrees with your politics fascists? Not very civil.&quot;

I had a very good reason for picking LGF and calling it Little Green Fascists...  I read a bunch of postings on there once, without knowing anything about the blog or who ran it or what their political opinions were.  They were calmly discussing the &quot;Palestinian Problem&quot; and what should be done about it.  

Suggestions varied from tactical nukes, to a massacre of every non-Israeli living in the West Bank and the Gaza strip.  There were no &quot;moderate&quot; voices raised.  All there was was a bunch of people saying that &quot;Genocide was the only solution&quot;... There was no hint of Irony or Sarcasm anywhere in the postings.  They just felt that killing everyone they had decided that they didn&#039;t like was the only way forward.  How do you feel about those &quot;moderate&quot; proposals?

HAve you ever heard &quot;Beyond the Fringe&quot;?  In particular the &quot;America&quot; sketch always strikes me as being too true.  

&quot;Like us, the Americans have two political parties, the Republicans, who are like our Conservative Party, and the Democrats, who are like our Conservative Party!&quot; 

As a Brit living in America this is too true.  What you call the Left is moderate to most of the rest of the world.

<p>&#8220;Little Green Fascists? Look, I have many different blogs on my blogroll, so just picking out one of them isnâ€™t very conclusive. Iâ€™d also ask why you call them that. Do you call everyone who disagrees with your politics fascists? Not very civil.&#8221;</p>
<p>I had a very good reason for picking LGF and calling it Little Green Fascists&#8230;  I read a bunch of postings on there once, without knowing anything about the blog or who ran it or what their political opinions were.  They were calmly discussing the &#8220;Palestinian Problem&#8221; and what should be done about it.  </p>
<p>Suggestions varied from tactical nukes, to a massacre of every non-Israeli living in the West Bank and the Gaza strip.  There were no &#8220;moderate&#8221; voices raised.  All there was was a bunch of people saying that &#8220;Genocide was the only solution&#8221;&#8230; There was no hint of Irony or Sarcasm anywhere in the postings.  They just felt that killing everyone they had decided that they didn&#8217;t like was the only way forward.  How do you feel about those &#8220;moderate&#8221; proposals?</p>
<p>HAve you ever heard &#8220;Beyond the Fringe&#8221;?  In particular the &#8220;America&#8221; sketch always strikes me as being too true.  </p>
<p>&#8220;Like us, the Americans have two political parties, the Republicans, who are like our Conservative Party, and the Democrats, who are like our Conservative Party!&#8221; </p>
<p>As a Brit living in America this is too true.  What you call the Left is moderate to most of the rest of the world.</p>

		<description>Re #17: Since RunningDogLackey chose to denigrate me and my profession, I seems only fair that I take a few seconds to respond.

In the first place, most advertising agencies are beyond the means of the small to medium business owner. In the second place, who really cares what magazine and/or newspaper editors think. Using the internet, the little guy can distribute a news or feature story to a highly targeted local, regional, national or international audience without their assistance. What&#039;s more, if they know what they&#039;re doing, the copy they write normally ends up generating continuing readership because most it ends up getting and holding top search engine placement for six months or more.</description>

The 15-month proconsulship of the CPA disbursed nearly $20 billion, two-thirds of it in cash, most of which came from the Development Fund for Iraq that had replaced the UN Oil for Food Program and from frozen and seized Iraqi assets. Most of the money was flown into Iraq on C-130s in huge plastic shrink-wrapped pallets holding 40 â€œcashpaks,â€ each cashpak having $1.6 million in $100 bills. Twelve billion dollars moved that way between May 2003 and June 2004, drawn from accounts administered by the New York Federal Reserve Bank. The $100 bills weighed an estimated 363 tons.

Once in Iraq, there was virtually no accountability over how the money was spent. There was also considerable money â€œoff the books,â€ including as much as $4 billion from illegal oil exports. The CPA and the Iraqi State Oil Marketing Board, which it controlled, made a deliberate decision not to record or â€œmeterâ€ oil exports, an invitation to wholesale fraud and black marketeering.

Thus the country was awash in unaccountable money. British sources report that the CPA contracts that were not handed out to cronies were sold to the highest bidder, with bribes as high as $300,000 being demanded for particularly lucrative reconstruction contracts.</description>

		<description>Ryan,

You just keep repeating the same lines over and over. Liar, liar, liar. That&#039;s all you can say. You have no substance to anything you say. I&#039;m not a Republican, and you have no reason to call me one other than the fact that I disagree with you.

I love how the term &quot;fascist&quot; is being tossed around here like it was a frisbee. Such as:

&lt;em&gt;Did you see the Atlanta Hawks vs. Green Bay game today. Every time the camera showed the sidelines it was lined with cops. Atlanta is a fascist city for sure. Iâ€™ve yet to see that kind of paranoia at any other football stadium. &lt;/em&gt;

OMG! Security personnel! We don&#039;t want any of that! Susan, go read up on what fascism really is. You clearly have no clue and only seek to use loaded words where ever you go to seem as if you have something important to say.</description>

		<description>It is sad when people aren&#039;t smart enough to give a little critical thought to the motives and statements generated by this so called administration.

I find myself saying why did they say that?  What are their motives.  We know for a fact that what they are telling us is not what they are truly up to.

Just like anyone saying:  I am a Christian.....blah blah blah......

Beware, if they have to qualify anything with &quot;I am a Christian&quot; then they are getting ready to nullify that statement with the next.

True Christians prove they are Christians, they don&#039;t have to tell you so that you will know.  They illustrate it by their actions.

So, Pat Robertson, GW dumbya, cheezycheeney.... you are ALL BUSTED!</description>

&quot;Do you call everyone who disagrees with your politics fascists?&quot;

Nope, just your NeoCon masters. You know, the guys who have highjacked the republican party and the Christian religion. The NeoCons are fascists. Bow down to your fascist master. Good little Republican zombie. You&#039;ll notice that I did not call you a NeoCon. They wouldn&#039;t have you, only want to use you.</description>
