ThinkFast: January 17, 2007
The Bush administration last night “declared its opposition to the House Democrats’ proposed cutting of student loan interest rates.” The House bill, to be voted on today, cuts interest rates on some college student loans in half and “would help an estimated 5.5 million students who get need-based federal loans.”
Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE) “will join two leading Democrats in introducing a resolution opposing President Bush’s buildup of troops in Iraq, putting a bipartisan stamp on the looming Congressional showdown over the war.”
Yesterday, nearly three weeks after the fact, President Bush said the execution of Saddam Hussein “looked like it was kind of a revenge killing.” On Iraq, Bush said, “I don’t quite view it as the broken egg; I view it as the cracked egg … that — where we still have a chance to move beyond the broken egg.”
“After progress in the early 1990s, the march of global freedom that President Bush advocates has stalled — from countries of the former Soviet Union to parts of Africa and East Asia,” the Freedom House organization declares in a new report, dubbing the trend “freedom stagnation.”
Charles Stimson, the top Pentagon official overseeing U.S. detainees, wrote a letter to the Washington Post apologizing for saying last week that corporate clients should consider ending their business ties with legal firms whose lawyers defend prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. “[T]hose comments do not reflect my core beliefs,” Stimson writes.
One day after the nation observed Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Virginia lawmaker Frank D. Hargrove (R) said that slavery ended nearly 140 years ago with the Civil War and that “our black citizens should get over it.” He added, “Are we going to force the Jews to apologize for killing Christ?”
$1.2 trillion: With the money going to the Iraq war, the United States could set up a universal health care system, provide universal preschool, carry out the recommendations of the 9/11 commission, double cancer research funding, increase funding to Gulf Coast reconstruction, and enact a “global immunization campaign to save millions of children’s lives.”
The United States has allowed just “466 Iraqis to immigrate under refugee status since 2003 — including 202 out of 70,000 slots for refugees last year — in part because of more stringent security screenings,” congressional testimony yesterday revealed. Iraq is “quickly becoming the largest” refugee crisis in the world, with roughly “1.7 million Iraqis displaced from their homes.”
“The botched hanging of Saddam Hussein and two lieutenants in Iraq by its Shiite-led government has helped to accelerate Sunni-Shiite sectarianism across an already fragile Middle East.” “The reality of the current situation is that we are approaching an open Sunni-Shiite conflict in the region,” warned Emad Gad, an international relations specialist based in Egypt.
And finally: Playing it safe, perhaps too safe, at this year’s White House Correspondents Association dinner. In contrast to last year’s performance by Stephen Colbert, a video of which became “one of the year’s most downloaded,” the WHCA has chosen a “less-combative host,” Rich Little. Little, 68, last performed at the event in 1985. “You will never please everyone no matter what you do,” the group’s president said. “My dad loved (Little), and I know he will appeal to an older generation.”

Jason Misogynist Hendler, this is right up your alley!
2 points:
1) Get over it??? Screw you Mr. Hargrove! I, for one, am not into erasing certain aspects of our history. The black community has every right to be angry about slavery, no matter that it was 140 years ago! So, you want them to get over the fact they were brutally taken from their homeland, were slaved over centuries, and once free, have been supressed eversince? FU, Hargrove, FU!
2) It was not the Jews who killed Jesus! It was a part of the divine plan, thus it was God who sacrificed Him! Any self proclaimed Christian who blames the Jews for the death of Jesus, or gets hisself in a tizzy over the roles certain Jews played, is, in one word, an IDIOT who knows nothing, NOTHING, about the Bible and the Resurrection.
and to top it off, Mr.Hargrove, upon learning that the Democratic delegate is Jewish, states that he shouldn’t be so thin skinned! NICE!
Can’t be any more of a bigot that that!

January 17th, 2007 at 9:44 amIf those freely made comments about the pro bono work for the Gitmo prisoners do not reflect Stimson’s core values, what are his core values? Put the lawyers in Gitmo also and attack the law firms? Since he did not need to make those comments, there is probably no excuse and apology that he can make that is real. Unfortunately he will never pay for damage that he has done. Not a one of those captives at Gitmo “hit the bottom line” of any company that we know of.
January 17th, 2007 at 9:44 amCharles Stimson: Regrettably, my comments left the impression that I question the integrity of those engaged in the zealous defense of detainees in Guantanamo.
Yes, the “impression” is there because you directly questioned the integrity of the defense lawyers and their firms. Couldn’t he just say he regrets making those outrageous statements and be done with it? But those who think they can do know wrong can’t apologize.

January 17th, 2007 at 9:46 amWhen I said there was going to have to be more sacrifice on the part of the American people, y’all didn’t think I was talkin’ ’bout the War Profiteers, didya? Heh, heh. No, ya see, it’s those little people, the ones gettin’ by on a government handout, those Government-subsidized loaners that go out to the needy. They need to keep payin’ those higher interest rates in order to help fund the War Effort. After all, somebody’s gonna have to pay for those no-bid, no accountability contracts and I sure as hell ain’t gonna have my “base” pay…they gotta pass their wealth on to their kids…that’s how we measure the strength of the American economy…by how much wealth my base can pass on to their kids….
What was the question again? Oh the poor? Well, Jesus says there’ll be poor always, so by keeping them poor, I’m just doin’ God’s Work.

January 17th, 2007 at 9:58 amDoomsday moves a bit nearer
The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is expected to move the hands forward on its Doomsday clock at the University of Chicago, a symbolic act reflecting nuclear risk in the world.
Despite renewed efforts from some of the world’s leaders, atomic experts say they feel the world is nearer to a nuclear disaster than it has ever been.
The symbolic timepiece counts down the minutes to a possible nuclear Armageddon and at 14:30 GMT simultaneous events in London and Washington on Wednesday will see the clock moved forwards from its current time of seven minutes to midnight.
The scientists have not said how much it will be moved.
January 17th, 2007 at 9:58 am#13, PoL – sounds like our school district, where the only thing now taught is how to pass a standardized test – long live NCLB – making rote robots out of once promising children.
#19 BnF – Sad, but most likely true in his mind. I have two in college and one going next year, and it is killing us financially. Yet, our tax refunds, you know, those great neocon Bush cuts that help us all have more to spend as consumers, as a sacrfice in the war on terruh, seemingly get smaller each year. Hmmm
January 17th, 2007 at 10:01 amKat, I can sympathize with you! We have twins that are 4, and a daughter who is 3. In 15 years, all three will be in college at the same time.
January 17th, 2007 at 10:14 amYIKES!
DRxJ – ours are 19, 18, 17 and 12. By the time the first three are finishing college, the last one will be ready go to college. When a financial aid officer at one school this year asked if we had lost our house yet to pay for college, I damn near died. Start saving now, you are going to need it. One school = 38,000. Second school = 23,000. Next years, about 15,000 ( got off cheap on that one). And we are pretty much middle/middle income Americans. It is almost criminal, I swear!
January 17th, 2007 at 10:19 amSuppose you are driving recklessly. You hit another driver and you are both killed. You’re widow appologizes to the innocent drivers widow. Your children appologize to the innocent drivers children. When they grow up their children appologize for their late grandfathers actions, and so it goes from generation to generation. How long should the decendents of the guilty appologize? Forever? How long should they pay for they actions of thier ancestors? If this scenario were to appear on Dr. Phil, He would tell the people sitting on his stage that it’s over and that they need to get over it. That would be the right thing, and the healthy thing to do. But let a politician say essentially the same thing and you interpret it as bigotry. Only weak people have no stomache for straight talk.

January 17th, 2007 at 10:44 amLooks like the Democrats pulled the old “bait and switch” with the voters on their student loan pledge:
“Following up on an election-year promise, House Democrats said Friday they plan quick action to lower interest rates for student loans.
Their proposal, scheduled for a vote next week, would cut interest rates on some student loans in half. However, the college tuition plan has been scaled back since it was first touted on the campaign trail last year.
The interest rate relief would apply only to need-based loans and doesn’t help people who take out unsubsidized student loans — a distinction not made in the campaign literature Democrats handed out before winning control of Congress last fall. The measure also abandons a pledge to reduce rates for parents who take out loans to help with their kids’ college costs.”

Its not about forgiveness or apologies from the criminal. Its about justice. Blacks in your country are a minority facing racial discrimination since they got to work in the tobacco fields. Indians were exterminated by the white men and now they lived in little reservations where they forget all their cultures with a bottle of alcohol. Nobody wants an apology. People look for justice. But try to explain that to yourself.

Comment by Juan C
What part of the word apologize don’t you understand? Do you see the word justice in the article anywhere at all? Just how many tobacco fields do you think there are in this country? Most of the workeres are probably illegal aliens and not blacks anyway. Yeah there are some pockets in the deep South where racial discrimination is practiced, but in the rest of the country it simply isn’t so. I have lived in three major cities in the US, and in all three blacks have decent jobs, live in decent homes, and drive decent cars. Granted many do not, but many whites don’t either. Blacks even have more opportunity to go college than whites do. The vast majority of people in this country do not hate black people, and they do not try to keep them down or try keep them from succeeding. In many cases they don’t want to do what it takes to succeed. They waste their school years on being cool and kill their opportunities for continued education. Do the white people in this country need to be brought to justice for that? Are you suggesting that slavery is still to blame?

But:
Like Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), Bush said that he would “strongly oppose†raising taxes on the wealthy to help offset the increasing costs of war in Iraq because he wants “people to feel like their life’s moving on.â€
Right. Heaven forbid we stop cutting taxes on the ultra-rich. It might hurt our fabulous economy, unlike having to come up with $1.2 trillion that had never been budgeted for. Any Democrats in Congress who are afraid of rolling back the tax cuts for the rich clearly must be out of touch with the vast majority of people in this country. It’s not even a framing problem anymore. The numbers are so overwhelming, coupled with the fact that Bush is the first president to wage a war without raising taxes–giving tax cuts instead– that a rollback would be more than welcome by anyone but the hardcore right-wingers. Just do it! Roll back the tax cut on anyone making over $300,000. That may seem like a high threshold, but it’s about all it should take.

Just another neoconservative trying to use a fake apology (”I didn’t really say what the audio/video/article says I said — if I did, I didn’t mean it”) in an attempt to cover up the fact that he has a terminal case of foot-in-mouth disease. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…I don’t believe that anyone anything that they don’t genuinely mean (even if they don’t want to admit it to themselves) and that’s doubly true when it’s out loud and/or when there’s reason to believe that it will be on the record. It may not be something that they wanted splashed on the front page of the newspaper — but that doesn’t necessarily signify that they didn’t mean it! Nothing comes out of the mouth that hasn’t already been in the head or the heart — and while people may regret what they said later on (either because of a change of heart or simply because they know that there may be negative consequences for speaking so freely), they almost certainly felt it or thought it when they said it.

Ican’t believe you’re so fantastically close-minded you can’t tell when someone is turning a phrase. You accuse me of a ‘literal translation of the Bible’, based upon your beliefs about Hell. Are you really so dense you can’t see the logical fallacy there?
And you wonder why I don’t take people who believe in a literal interpretation of the Bible seriously? This is why, dolt…because if you’re mentally deficient enough to trust your ‘magic book’ over the evidence of your senses and reason (which contradict the ‘magic book’ a thousandfold), you’re not worth the effort of attempting to converse with you.
Being religious is not an excuse to fail to be rational. If you truly believe that we were created by a divine Creator, for some sort of purpose, then you must acknowledge that this Creator gave us the ability to think critically for a purpose as well. Failing to use a gift of God could be construed as a sin, could it not?
