Profile - President George W. Bush



What it Takes
To be a Republic, it takes the right stuff

when the president does it that means that it is not illegal.
There was a time when that statement was simply appalling. It and the philosophy behind it eventually brought down the President who uttered it, Richard Nixon. Today, cowardice in high places protects the puny pretender who holds court in his throne room previously known as the Oval Office.

An Open Letter
I got an email from a dear and respected friend referring me to a short video of a Bill Maher show. I guess this had been bubbling up within me for quite a while, so I took the opportunity to put it to pen.

Angelo Mozilo and Ronald Reagan
What? What? Well, it all began in a nice preacher's office at Pepperdine

Plain and Simple: Nothing But Ouster Will Stop Bush-Cheney Torture Regime
George W. Bush and Richard Cheney are simply LAWBREAKERS. They have absolutely NO REGARD for the LAW. Never have. EVER. Whether International law or American law, they both consider themselves ABOVE THE LAW. Coupled with their SADISTIC personalities - note Texas death penalties...shooting friend in the face - and the limitless POWER they wield, is it any wonder crime is up and rising. Here is CounterBias.com

Iran, like Iraq, must have its war.
Yup, that's right, everybody knows but you. We're going to war with Iran. Oh, and by the way, if you thought Iraq was bad...

The Surge is a Crock
How can we be sure the Surge is a Crock? Because Bush's lips were moving when he said it was a success...And if Bush's lips are moving, he's lying. Here's the lowdown from Greg Palast as published by BuzzFlash today.

Bush knew Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction
Salon exclusive: Two former CIA officers say the president squelched top-secret intelligence, and a briefing by George Tenet, months before invading Iraq. By Sidney Blumenthal

Manichean - What Does THAT Mean?
While perusing articles regarding George W, prompted by a note from a friend suggesting I read Glenn Greenwald's "A Tragic Legacy," I came across the word Manichean describing GWB several times. I didn't have a clue. Now I do.

Good Riddance
Bye Bye G.

Iraq = Viet Nam?
Isn't that rich? The Viet Nam Draft Dodger in Chief waxing nostalgic for the war he wouldn't fight while sending hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and Americans to their deaths in the Killing Fields of the Iraq Oil Fields.

Hypocrite, Thy Name is Bush
BuzzFlash.com provides a Hypocrite of the Week for us readers and I, like so many really appreciate the effort. This week, as so many before it, George W. Bush holds the title based on his recent speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars, most of whom are now either Viet Nam Vets or Iraq War Vets, equating Viet Nam with Iraq - preaching to the choir, as they say.

Above the Law
Oh, you thought that there was such a thing as an oversight committee and that they had oversight...

Permanent Military Presence in Iraq is On The Ground
The US Military has been building permanent bases and a giant US embassy in Iraq preparing for a long term occupation.

Bush Proclaims Himself King
That's right, Executive Orders HSPD-20 and NSPD-51 give Bush the right to suspend elections in the case of a national emergency (defined by whatever Bush calls a national emergency). Folks, we're in deep pooopoooo now.

Bush to Veto War Funding
In a suprising turn of events, Bush is going to try to veto the appropriation of funds for Iraq. But the political hemorhaging on the republican side is gonna kill him and cheney on the steps of the senate. Harry Reid will play Brutus.

Ladies and Gentlemen, It's On
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi went to meet the dictator today to express that there was no longer any felt need or desire to excuse the presidents idiocy in getting us into our second vietnam... Well, if you don't count Korea. Meanwhile, Christian Radio thanks Bush for keeping us from killing babies.

Bush Bypasses Senate
"I officially don't care what you think" - GW Bush

Libby Guilty
4/5 Counts, but still, retrial?

EPA Officially Has Authority
But Bush doesn't want them to do anything about it. So now you have the authority to enforce the laws, will you enforce them, Mr. Bush?

Gonzales - PLEASE NOW
Gonzales, pooor thing, had to postpone his vacation. Why do we let elected officials have vacations anyway?

Did Rumsfeld MicroManage Torture


Gonzalez: Political Firings, Yes, Illegal?
Who's to say...

Ex-Prosecutor John McCay Fired for Political Reasons
Says he was asked political question "Why would republicans be angry at him?" before being fired.

Gooding - Yes, I have something to Hide
Monica Goodling's got something to hide and just told the world so.

Republicans Rally Around Gonzalez
With his guilt a near certainty and the remaning questions being only the extent to which more upper-level white house officials can be dragged into the mire, Gozalez is holding on. He must know where the bodies are.

Libby and the Damage Done
Valerie Plame talks about what the politically motivated attack on her and her husband did to the American Intelligence Community and how the Presidentially Authorized Breach of Security has weakened our country's defenses against would-be terrorists - the real ones.

Gonzales - Sorry I fired you guys.
Here's the skinn: Gonzales fired people because they were prosecuting republican-friendly defendents effectively. He didn't do the same for other classes of defendents. He did it explicitly and with the direct knowledge of the president. That's troubling.

Draft Dodging Bush - the Harriet Miers Connection
Harriet Miers burried the documents. Palast, of course, got them.

Bush Pelosi agree - More war in Iran Now
That's right. Despite the two debacles we're already in, the Democrats won't stand in bush's way if he wants to invade Iran. Why not, Iraq has gone SO WELL!

Bush: Do I look like I care?
The American People have spoken, we want out of Iraq. So?

President Bush Threatens to Veto Pelosi's Anti-War Bill
At least she's trying.

Counting the Dead - Again
One of the ways we measured the evilness of Saddam was by the number of civilian Iraqi's he killed. Turnabout is fair play.

Targeting the Press
Now the Military has turned in "covert operations" to targeting Iraqi Press Operations, according to Reporters without Borders. Why? Because a free press in Iraq would be very bad news indeed for the brainwashing crowd here at home.

Big Oil, Big Brother Win Big in the State of the Union
Policy Shrapnel - can we create a police state under the radar of the massive failure in Iraq?

Mission Accomplished Recap
I know, you've seen and heard this before. But it's worth re-remembering today, while the same man who said that major combat in Iraq was over four years ago, made a complete idiot of himself by declaring victory, is asking for more troops than he started with to finish this outlandish war for the profit of his family and his friends, and with no better plan than he'd started with. In short, remember what kind of an idiot we're talking about here as today's US Military Death Toll goes to 25, the highest yet.

The "President's" Speech
Here it is, that guy who lives in the white house in that country that used to be the United States opened his mouth apparently again. Nothing changed, don't bother reading it, it'll just piss you off.

I have a great idea, let's do it AGAIN, AGAIN
Now I know, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice ... But politics doesn't work that way. In politics, fool me twice is an invitation to fool me a third and fourth and fifth time. As many times as we can. Double-dipping is not a faux-pas up in Washington. And so, when all hope is lost, when we know it was a bad idea in the first place and that nobody in the whole country wants to even hear the word Iraq again, all Bush can do is ask to go it again same, second verse same as the first.

Administration Tries to Suppress Documents
Documents leaked to the ACLU are being supboenaed by the US Government before their publication in direct contradiction of precedent and law.

"Occupation" or "Civil War"
You choose. The "enemy", if it's a civil war, is, um, not engaged with us. If it's an occupation, then there is no civil war. Can we at least agree on what words mean?

Chaves Calls Bush the Devil
Hyperbole? Maybe.

On Vacation
President George W Bush is on vacation, again. And I, for one, am relieved. For the next ten days, he will be off-line and, hopefully, not making things worse. Because that's what GW does - HE MAKES THINGS WORSE.

Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, Meine Mo
Is it over yet? Has the Fat Lady sung? We began this century with Saddam Hussein in Iraq holding the line against Shi'ite Iran ally Hezbollah and Sunni Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan. That wasn't good enough. Someone had the brilliant idea of taking Hussein out of the picture and now...

You heard I here First
Bush Lost - Feeney Hired a programmer to fix the Ohio election and the rest is history bubbah.

Iraq?
Whatever happened to Iraq?

Was George Orwell an Optimist?
Just asking. After six years of George Bush, I'm thinking Orwell's vision of the future is preferable.

NEWS FLASH: BUSH LIED
In court papers filed in New York federal court June 23, the U.S. National Security Agency asked AT&T Inc. to help it set up a domestic call monitoring site SEVEN MONTHS BEFORE SEPTEMBER 11, 2001.

Are You Better Off Today?
More than half of people surveyed in a BBC World Service poll say the re-election of US President George W Bush has made the world more dangerous. Not only are We not safer, the world is a more dangerous place because GWBush was born 60 years ago. Happy Birthday America. And Happy Birthday George.

Bush is CIA Leaker
Bush told prosecutors he directed Cheney to disclose classified information that would not only defend his administration but also discredit Wilson.

Court Rebukes Bush
A First for Bush...The Supreme Court finally found its footing and delivered a decision denying President George W Bush the power to re-write American history, laws and treaties. Bush says he'll "Take it under advisement."

Losing the Peace
I don't know why this one - in particular - is news. It's not news to me. I -knew all along- that we were going to lose the peace in Iraq. That's what happens when you gut a countries infrastructure by bombing them all to smithereens. But it's still sad - sad that our country, the US, made this mess that we probably -should- clean up. But everything we do just makes things messier. It's like we WANT there to be a mess in Iraq. Oh yeah, we did want there to be a mess in Iraq. Well, someone did.

Who is Domestic Spying Really Focused on?
The Anti-War Movement? Who? YOU.

A Roadmap to Martial Law
Okay, rumors, and hearsay and secret sources, but here's the scoop. The Dubya Administration ain't going anywhere if they can help it.

Bush Aims Guns at Americans
Secret Service Men aimed their weapons at protesters in Florida. What is this, China?

Bush can disobey 750 laws
In his unending quest for an imperial presidency, Bush regularly decides to ignore laws he doesn't like.

Bush Passes Gas
Here we are, a month into unreasonably high fuel prices, and Bush decides to free up some fuel from the federal reserves. Why? Because his numbers are falling!

George Bush is the Antichrist
Well, doubtful. But there's this rumor going around that he is, let's take a close look at the possibility.

Is it too little too late?
Now we at the tip have been calling for the impeachment of George Bush since, well, since he was elected. He's scum, there're no two ways about it. He's got to go, etc... But, it's only two years now 'till he's gone anyway. And while an impeachment circus would be more entertaining than the possibility of nuking Iran, really, what's the point?

Waking The Dead
What do you have to do to wake up the remaining bush supporters?

Cowards
It is true that we at the TIP have been complaining about George W. Bush for five years, now. But we've never taken on his enablers. I think its time we did.

President Admits Involvement in Plame Leak
In a suprising and shameful turn, the President openly admits he did something considered illegal - he outed Plame.

Who is Harry Taylor? A Patriot!!
I would hope from time to time that you have the humility and the grace to be ashamed of yourself inside yourself.

The Plame Lie - from Whitehouse.gov
Bush LIED about whether he knew about the Plame Leaking - he said it was bad and that they were going to get to the bottom of it... Here's the transcript, for your reference.

Bush Authorized Plame Outing
Libby talked to Addington who said, basically, if the President authorizes it, it's not illegal. Sounds like Nixon. Turns out that when Bush said he'd fire anyone caught leaking classified information from his administration, he was talking about HIMSELF!

The White House Memo
Not just the downing street memo - but the White House also kept records of communications between Bush and Blair that recorded Bush's determination to go to war no matter what - and to "fix the intelligence" to fit his agenda.

The Conyers Report
The downing Street Minutes and the Downing Street memos proved what we knew - that Bush intended to lie to get us to believe that there were Nuclear weapons in Iraq. No weapons, folks, it's a lie. Wake up. Now that he's spying on us too, is that bad enough?

The Mission was Indeed Accomplished
That's right folks: The Big Oil Companies made $115 Billon In Profit in 2005 AFTER the Iraqi invasion. BEFORE the Iraqi invasion, in 2002, they made $34 Billion in profit. Mission Accomplished. Better yet, they've got the Secret State Department Memo's saying this was the plan -all along-!

Tracing the Trail of Torture: Embedding Torture as Policy From Guantanamo to Iraq
They told him, "We are going to cut your head off and send you to hell."

Bush Knew About Katrina Disaster Before and Did Nothing
That's right, he'd had a full, detailed briefing and he did nothing - for days.

Bush - The Leaky Bucket Poll
Bush's approval rating now at an all time low over domestic spying, his handling of iraq, his failures in helping katrina victims and indictments close to the presidency. This, my friends, is a leaky bucket.

It's Very Simple, Really...The President is Breaking the Law, Again
For more than five years, Americans have been obliged to witness the rape of our National Treasure, National Intelligence, National Resources and National Good Will. According to Federal Whistle Blowers, we are now witnessing the rape of our System of Laws. Can it be that finally, lawmakers are taking notice?

What's wrong with people?
After guffawing and chuckling and puking through the state of his union address where he basically said "It's my country, I own the supreme court, all you liberals fuck off, oh and by the way I'll be reading your emails, na na na-na na" I've finally come to the core problem with America - Americans. What is wrong with us? How did we get to be so gullible?

Now What?
President Bush whines that the Democrats don't have an alternative to his insistance that America keeps fighting a losing war in Iraq for reasons that 1)keep changing and 2)never make any sense. Well, NOW WHAT?

52% of Americans Favor Impeaching Bush over Wiretaps
Zogby Presents the Facts

Chinese Defeat US
You remember, the Chinese Handcuffs, the Monkey Puzzle...that's what we called those small strips of colored grasses woven into a cylinder. Put your two indexes fingers in, and the harder you try to get out, the tighter they get. President Bush has stepped into one in Iraq, and no matter how hard he struggles, he can't get out.

Are We Finally Catching On?
Bush Polls show him at the lowest approval rating yet, unelectable by any standards, untrustworthy, and decidedly disapproved. After 6 years of the jedi-liar getting away with murder by sacrificing goats in the basement of the whitehouse to get people to believe his lies (maybe not litterally, but certainly praying to Baal, anyway), the citizens of the US are starting to wake up.

Watergate-Redux
The Plame-Novack-Libby-Rove-Cheney-Bush scenario is strangely familiar. Oh, yeah, I remember...Watergate!

A few years late, but...
Ipsos polled americans and found that they favor impeaching Bush if he lied about Iraq. Now how do we decide whether he lied when they said there were weapons of mass destruction and we knew where they were?

Katrina - What A Mess
The FEMA chief was replaced by a Coast Guard Admiral because Mr. Brown, former election manager for GW Bush, knows nothing about handling emergencies and didn't know there were homeless and hungry people in New Orleans until 24 Hours after the storm. Bush didn't know either, by the way.

Katrina Brings Bush Down
With the most devestating storm in recent history hitting the south, the best the administration can come up with for it's reprehensible handling of the matter is that FEMA wasn't ready. Well, why wasn't FEMA ready? Because Bush put a political friend in charge rather than someone who know what they were doing.

Iraq Tribunal Recommends Indictment of Bush/Blair
WORLD TRIBUNAL ON IRAQ DEMANDS BUSH AND BLAIR INDICTMENT AT INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT

Thank Goodness the Chimp's Personally Overseeing ...
Anarchy in the USA...

What exactly did Rove tell the President?
Apparently, Rove told the president that he'd spoken to reporters about Plame - Bush knew while he was denying it to the public.

You Shall Know the Truth and the Truth Shall Set You Free
Free to seek employment elsewhere if you're a pentagon employee during the Bush Adminsitration.

The Dog Ate My Weapons of Mass Destruction Part Deux
Here it is, the legal-begal roundup by John Dean. A classic, an oldie, but we musn't forget. Bush lied, people died.

The Story Never Written
The current hub-bub regarding the journalists' supposed right to keep confidential communication confidential has convoluted what should have been part and parcel of the biggest story of 2003 - the one that was never written.

Co-Dependant
I don't know much about the subject, but I've been told that there are a few dead-on traits of an addict. Our president is showing us all the signs and insisting that we become his Co-Dependants.

Palast to Conyers - Don't Stop
Greg Palast broke the Downing Street Memo and continues to show that there is ample evidence to impeach the liar in chief.

John Conyers - The Bravest Man in Politics
The only one willing to stand up and speak the truth!

The Downing Street Memo
As if the meeting wasn't enough, the brits followed up with a memo outlinging how the case for war was weak and involvment in such a war was bound to lead to a protracted "nation building" effort aka QUAGMIRE.

The Downing Street Minutes
A secret memo unearthed outlines British plans to pump up the case for war in Iraq specifically mentions Bush Administration plans to do the same.

A Splinter in Newsweek's Eye
Newsweek reported that U.S. interrogators desecrated the Koran at Guantanamo Bay. Reports of that and other illegal methods of interrogation have been reported by both Detainees and Detainors for years. Why the uproar?

US, Tried to Kill Hostage, Killed Spy
Let me get this straight. The Insurgents took an Italian journalist hostage for about a month. Then they let her go, then the Americans tried to kill her but killed their own spy instead. And they say Bush doesn't know how to run a war. Still no WMDs, though. Good stuff, guys.

What the meaning of REPENT is.
Four years ago, the nation was caught up in defining "is." Did they or didn't they? It does seem inane, doesn't it. Today, the linguistic niceties of "is" is morphed into what the definition of "torture" is. Not quite so trivial as "is," "torture" is killing people.

Let Them Eat Cake
GWBush just let fly with a real gaff. Too bad he didn't do it before the election, eh?

Rice is Wrong
As National Security Advisor, Condoleezza Rice said no one had any reason to believe Terrorists would use an airliner as a weapon. She was lying.

Hear Ye, Hear Ye
Paul Krugman, Economist and columnist, is asking us to pay attention now. He tried to get our attention in 2000 when Bush was talking about his tax cuts - but most Americans wanted to believe in some miracle cure rather than facing the facts. Social Security demands we face facts. So Hear Ye, Hear Ye.

The Soft Bigotry of Low Expectations
That's Bush on Bigotry. Like "Soft Porn." or "White Lie." Bigotry is bigotry, Porn is porn and a Lie is a lie.

Iraq's Founding Father
GW wasn't available for the American Revolution staged, we're told, by American Patriots. When American Patriots staged the Viet Nam Revolution, he avoided it. Now, GW is determined to throw an Iraqi Revolution.

Generalissimo Bush
How many of the 56 million voters, when they cast their vote for Bush, every dreamed he would show up at Camp Pendleton playing dress-up?

Maimed in Iraq, then Mistreated, Neglected, and Hidden in America.
For those who had sacrificed their lives and limbs to preemptively protect the U.S. against Saddam Hussein’s nonexistent weapons of mass destruction, Bush’s war has been a complete failure.

Vote Early, Vote Often
George W. Bush is not qualified to be president. And no amount of on-the-job-training is ever going to change that.

Oops, He DID IT Again!
While Bruce Springsteen travels across country cajoling his audiences to register and vote for John Kerry, Britney Spears is Bush's most famous supporter. And that makes perfect sense, since her big hit "Oops, I Did It Again" seems to perfectly define George W Bush's four years in office.

ADMINISTRATION MISLEADS ON MISSING EXPLOSIVES
Not to put too fine a point on it, but the Administration is running as fast as it can from this. The other excuse...ITS A PLOT!! 60 MINUTES WAITED TO EXPOSE THE ADMINISTRATION'S INCOMPETANCE UNTIL JUST BEFORE THE ELECTION!!

A Creep in Wolves Clothing
A pack of wolves circling...that's the image George W. Bush wants leave us with. What he still doesn't know is - he and his pack are the wolves circling this camp.

Does That Mean God Was Wrong: Reprise
President George W. Bush intoned more than once as the rationale for War On Iraq-"I was called by God for this moment." Now that the Intelligence has been exposed as - well, less than intelligent, Did God have it wrong?

Where's Wolf, Tim, Chris?
The Mis-statements, Gaffs, Goofs and assorted deliberate Mis-leading words of George W Bush & Assoc. are legion. From childish nicknaming to churlish name-calling, the Presidential tongue is both legendary and lethal. Yet all the 24 hour talkers can talk about are the ramifications of Kerry saying Mary Cheney is a lesbian.

With Trembling Fingers
The irreducible truth is that the invasion of Iraq was the worst blunder, the most staggering miscarriage of judgment, the most fateful, egregious, deceitful abuse of power in the history of American foreign policy.

Bush May Be the End to the Republican Party
Bruce Bartlett, a domestic policy adviser to Ronald Reagan and a treasury official for the first President Bush, told me recently that ''if Bush wins, there will be a civil war in the Republican Party starting on Nov. 3

Bush's Mismanagement Deadly
George Bush, who himself is nothing more than an aging Frat Boy, appointed tens of thousands of his goofy friends to positions of responsibility throught the government. His friends mismanagement are causing deaths from Afghanistan to Iraq to California.

The Debates
Who won? Hard to tell. First, we should discuss who showed-up.

The Emperor Has No Clothes
Despite President Bush's rosy assessments, Iraq remains a disaster. If under Saddam it was a 'potential' threat, under the Americans it has been transformed to 'imminent and active threat,' a foreign policy failure bound to haunt the United States for decades to come. - Farnaz Fassihi

Jonathan Chait He's So Bad, He Might Be Perfect
Under an odd logic, Bush deserves another term. Shouldn't he suffer for his blunders?

Bush V Kerry II
I'll not try to give a blow by blow - others, notably "Daily Kos" are doing a great job of that. I'll point out one Bush consistency..."I just don't understand..." That's right, George, you don't. And that's the problem.

A Chilling Message from Dick Cheney
"[As] our country experienced war and national emergency, I have watched our Commander-in-Chief make the decisions and set the strategy... America's friends know they can trust -- and America's enemies know they can fear -- the decisive leadership of President George W. Bush." - Vice President Dick Cheney, from "Thank You, President Bush"

Bush Aides Admit Bush Stoking Fears of Terrorism for Political Gain
The Hubris!! It's not enough that he's doing it...He has to actually ADMIT IT and still there are those who blindly follow him. Amazing.

Bremer Joins the Throng of Rats Deserting Ship
Unfortunately, 150,000 American soldiers are still on board and dying in ever growing numbers. Just like he did in in Viet Nam, Bush is AWOL, at home, in a losing political campaign, leaving the dying to others.

Iraq spells Quagmire
'President Bush wanted to turn Iraq into a democracy that would be an example for the Middle East. Forget about democracy, forget about being a model for the region, we have to salvage Iraq before all is lost.'

Iraq Spells Quagmire
Farrel continued - 2 "I have never seen so much loose thinking about democracy," countered [scholar] Thomas Carothers. . ."The idea that you can produce a democratic tidal wave throughout the Arab world is a dangerous fantasy. What we are ending up producing is incredible hatred."

Iraq Spells Quagmire
Maureen Farrell continued - 3 "We tend to overlook a basic rule: that people prefer bad rule by their own kind to good rule by somebody else,"

Iraq Spells Quagmire
Maureen Farrell continued - 4 "The neoconservatives around George Bush are crazy. They actually believe the United States can run about the world, overthrowing governments by force and establishing democracies in their place. . . This crowd has the gall to sneer at people trying to keep the United States out of war as being 'appeasers,' if not traitors."

Iraq Spells Quagmire
Maureen Farrell continued - 5 Things are so bad, in fact, that retired Air Force colonel and former military planner Mike Turner says that if Bush stays in the White House, we will, in all probability, lose this war. "This war is an exercise in colossal stupidity and hubris which has now cost more than 1,000 American military lives," he wrote. "And now, in a supreme act of truly breathtaking gall, this administration insists the only way to fix Iraq is to leave in power the very ones who created the nightmare."

Treat Terrorists As The Criminals They Are
Of all the horrible mistakes George W. Bush made in the past three years...

FREE SPEECH = BAD CITIZEN?
Mr. George W Bush is apparently under the mis-apprehension that the Republican Party did not run presidential candidates during World War II, the Korean War, or the Viet Nam War - as he accuses Mr. Kerry of being a "bad citizen" for criticising his handling of the Occupation of Iraq.

Bush Threatens World Peace and Prosperity
You won't see that in MainStream Media headlines, but they still havn't caught on to the Bush form of of communication - say one thing and so the opposite. So the AP Headline is 'President's Speech Tuesday to the U.N. Calls for Building a Better World' which can only mean BIG TROUBLE.

Priceless
"There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again." --George W. Bush, Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 17, 2002

THIS IS THE BIGGEST POLITICAL AND MILITARY BLUNDER THIS COUNTRY HAS FACED SINCE…
WHAT HAS BUSH EVER DONE THAT HASN'T TURNED TO SH**?

The problem is that he still refuses to come clean about it.
WELL, THAT'S PART OF THE PROBLEM. THE OTHER PART IS HE'S A DAMNED LIAR WHO CAN'T BE TRUSTED TO HOUSE SIT, LET ALONE WHITE HOUSE SIT.

A Couple Salon Teasers
David Talbot: Kitty Kelly's new book and a David Talbot news article, both good reasons to subscribe to Salon online.

Osama Who? Anothe Bush Flip-Flop
According to a new report, the President has dangerously underfunded and understaffed the intelligence unit charged with tracking down al Qaeda's leader.

Kerry Challenges Bush Record on Issues
Sen. John Kerry accused President Bush on Wednesday of presiding over an "excuse presidency," challenging Bush's credibility on jobs, the record national deficit and the war in Iraq.

Gramm Delivers the Goods
Bob Graham, Senator from Florida, Democratic Presidential hopeful, and longtime member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, promised he had the President's cajones in a vice. His book, to be released tomorrow, is the proof.

Sharon Bush Speaks
Belatedly, but plainly, Sharon Bush, the former wife of brother Neal Bush (Silverado fame) has finally broken silence and ranks and spoken to Kitty Kelly, the muck-raking British Biographer of Princess Di and Prince Charles.

Joe Roche - Army Specialist Writes Home
Bush quoted an "army specialist writing home" from Washington DC.

Open Mouth - Insert Foot
Bush has done it again - inadverdently told the truth. That's twice in one week. Has he gotten religion?

Catastrophic Success
President George W Bush uses this expression, "Catastrophic Success," in a Time Magazine article this week. At first glimpse, it looks like a Freudian Error. But no, its a quote from Donald Rumsfeld and General Tommy Franks.

Connecting the Dots
Washington is abuzz. Who said gave what to whom and why? And why now?

Prosecutor Who Attacked Kerry Admits Lying
Sticks and Stones may get you a Purple Heart, but Lying about it will get you fired! Alfred French, who called Sen. John Kerry a liar in a political commercial, conceded that he was relying on the account of war buddies, not what he witnessed.

Bush's Swifties
Wolf, Wolf, Wolf, Wolf ... Bush's lies are all catching up with him, folks. So much so that his handlers (if he weren't president, they'd be wearing white coats) have him hiding out in Crawford in communicado (drying out?) until he swoops into New York next Thursday night just long enough to accept the nomination.

What Did You Do During the War, Mr. Preznit?
Brad DelLong has offered this piece of journalistic insight. I've wondered why it was so difficult to delve into GWB's National Guard Service. Apparently, no one else has made the effort.

This is rich
According to Bush, by continuing to return to the Swift Boat Liars commercial, Kerry is avoiding talking about what Bush wants to talk about...his record!

The Fear Factor
The Bush reelection commercials. rather than beng a symphony of life, seem to hit a few discordant notes over and over. It is noise coming out of the Bush/Cheney Team. As has been said so often, they have nothing good to say, so they keep putting out White Noise, Political Static.

Rood, too
It's amazing, isn't it? A man who wasn't even there, who has a history of working for Richard Nixon, the originator of the "Enemies List" had the unmitigated gall to think he could spend someone else's money to destroy John Kerry's reputation.

Swift Boats Shame
Two things should be considered before discussing this Swift Boat Shame: 1) If what John Kerry says is true, no one will change their vote if they were going to vote for Bush. 2) If what John Kerry says isn't true, no one will change their vote if they weren't going to vote for Bush.

Bush in Viet Nam Fraikus
Bush is fighting the Viet Nam War all over again. And his tactics are the same this time as they were then...Send Him!

WOLF!! III
As we've said before, that's the problem with Bush's Lies: Just when is he telling the truth? The Labor Department says as many as 107,000 workers could lose overtime eligibility but about 1.3 million will gain it while the Economic Policy Institute says 6 million will lose, and only a few will get new rights to premium pay for working more than 40 hours a week.

Pre-emption Doesn't End at Our Borders
As several people patiently tried to explain to our Conceptually Challenged Commander in Chief, the Proglem of Pre-Emption is Someone is Bound to Pre-Empt US. Well, no Iran has threatened just that.

Bush's Failures Spread to Another Continent
One of the books George W. Bush has famously NOT read is, undoubtedly, HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE. Bush has aliented Europe, Asia, Asia Minor, and now South America. That leaves Australia and North America. Canadians have already voiced their contempt for Bush. America will make its alienation clear on November 2.

Abu Ghraib Probe Points to Top Brass
Where was George W Bush 35 years ago while John Kerry was taking fire in Viet Nam? Where was he when John McCain was being tortured in a North Viet Namese POW camp? We just don't know. His service records are blank. But we know where he was a year ago while his troops were torturing POWs in Abu Ghraib. He was sitting in front of the Buck, stopping.

What Happened on the Bridge
A first-hand story of what happened, sort-of.

He Hit Me First!
U.S. officers said they had not provoked clashes during the delegation's visit to Najaf Tuesday, saying fighters from al-Sadr's Mahdi Army had attacked them first. Al-Sadr's fighters accuse U.S. troops of starting the fighting earlier this month.

The Daily Mislead
This site sends a daily dose of Bush Lies Exposed. Its worth it to sign up: www.Misleader.org

Troops Coming Home
If it was anyone else, I'd be overjoyed. But it's Bush. I'm skeptical. I'm worried. I'm wondering what he's got up his sleeves now.

A Sample of What a Democratic Ad could Look Like
Nuclear Advertising Atrios has a fun example of a possible nuclear attack ad the Dems might have at the ready if Bush continues down the low road using 9/11 fearmongering to sell his floundering presidency.

The Trend is Our Friend
That's Secretary of Treasury Don Evans slogan. When you can't find anything good to say, say "The Trend is our Friend."

Here's a Must Read
"I don't spend a lot of time trying to figure me out. ... I'm just not into psychobabble." But Dr. Justin A Frank is into psychobabble. He spent a good deal of time figuring out Bush, and now he shares his conclusions with us in Bush On the Couch Inside the Mind of the President by Justin A. Frank, M.D

Orange
Tom Ridge announced "credible intelligence" of threats to bomb or otherwise attack buildings in Washington DC, New Jersey and New York. Wolf.

And They're Off! Bush Criticizes Kerry's Record in Senate
Says Democrat Spent 19 Years in U.S. Senate With 'No Signature Achievements' Of course, we all know what Bush was doing during those 19 years. Bankrupting 3 businesses before bankrupting Texas - then on to bankrupting the US Treasury.

Bush Got It ALL WRONG!!
According to the 9/11 Commission Report that is scheduled to be released, it was Iran that was in cahoots with al Qaeda, not Iraq.

Bush Approves of this Political Ad
Bush has been on vacation, on his dirt ranch in Midland, for 40% of his time in office.

The CIA's acting director, John E. McLaughlin, told
Well, hell, that's enough to disqualify the man from any position of responsibility right there. "I think there's some debate about what his report said or didn't say. I just don't want to take a position on it."

Say What?
Bush tells his faithful we are "safer today than anytime since 9/11." If that's true, what's the hub-bub? Why is Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge telling us the chatter is louder? Why is Soaries planning to postpone the election?

TONY BLAIR TAKES PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY!!
Well, at least now we know who to blame. The CIA did at least sloppy work. MI-5 had it wrong, too. Still, Bush and Blair say they're glad they invaded Iraq and got rid of Saddam. Who do I see about my Mother? Brother? Sister? Son? Daughter? Father? Husband?

Donald Trump Would 'Fire' Bush Over Iraq Invasion
"Look at the war in Iraq and the mess that we're in. I would never have handled it that way," Donald Trump quoted in Esquire Magazine.

So, Does That Mean God Was Wrong?
President George W. Bush intoned more than once as the rationale for War On Iraq-"I was called by God for this moment." Now that the Intelligence has been exposed as - well, less than intelligent, Did God have it wrong?

Bush Says We Need More Intelligence
He would know...

CO-INKY-DINKY
The Pentagon announced today that GWBush's military records had mysteriously disappeared. Apparently, the dog ate his military records.

BUSH ADMIN TAKING AIM AT ELECTION
Planting seeds of doubt - that the November election will be interrupted by terror: that the Terrorists want Bush to lose or Kerry to win: that the Patriotic vote is for Bush. That's what Bush wants you to believe.

Going After Osama
With the November elections looming close, President GWBush is putting pressure on Pakistan and Afghanistan to find Bin Laden.

Don't Let's Lose Our Sense of Humor
"A new poll says that if the election were held today, both John Kerry and John Edwards would beat President Bush by double digit margins. The White House is so worried about this, they're now thinking of moving up the capture of Osama Bin Laden to next month." -Jay Leno

Iraq sovereignty: New Puppets on Old Strings
One headline reads "Al Sadr refuses to give up." One man's "Terrorist" is another man's "Founding Father."

The Polls are in - Bush is Down
Here's the AP Poll

Bowling for Terrorism
Who's right? Do you fight terrorism with guns or with economic and political aid and pressure?

Bush: "Do As I Say, Not As I Do"
When Move-On.Org accepted an ad comparing Hitler's rationalization of his invasion of Poland to Bush's rationalization of his invasion of Iraq, Bush called it Dirty Pool. Move-On.org promptly removed the entry. But when Bush's own campaign site intersperses clips of speeches by Democrats John Kerry, Al Gore and Howard Dean with the footage of Hitler, Bush does another hat-trick and more rationalizing.

Have You Been "Bushhitted?"
With a little thought you can probably bring to mind ways that you were were led down the your own private garden path and now know - you were Bushitted!

Bush's Security Keeps Him Safer
As George Bush heads for Ireland for an EU-US summit, he leans forward for the camera as the interviewer asks "Is the world safer now that the Saddam Hussein regime is gone from Iraq?" Bush answers in a voice carefully calculated to elicit reassurance "Yes, I truly believe we are safer, that the world is safer."

Duped or Dope
Sound familiar? The TIP ran that very article back on September 3, 2003. Was the President Duped, or is he just a Dope?

Reality is unravelling for Bush
Someone said "It's Lonely at the Top." It looks like its getting a lot lonlier as the Rats continue to desert the Bush Ship of State. Wave Bye-bye to Ted Olson, Bush's attorney.

Bush v Moon
Bush says God told him to go to war with Iraq. The Reverend Moon thinks he is God! The Founders devised a system of government separating Church from State. Today, we need to be concerned about separating the Sane from the Insane.

Four More Years
Vote, please!

A Father's Day Weekend
The NYTimes thought it appropriate to itemize John Kerry's weekend to remind us what a rich guy he is. The TIP is Fair and Balanced, however. So, here is Bush's weekend itemized, as well.

9/11 Comission Credibility Issue for Bush
The 9/11 Comission found that there were ample opportunities for the Administration to act before the 9/11 incident and that there appear to be no links between Iraq and Al Quaeda. This puts several Bush statements at odds with the truth.

Cheney DELUSIONAL
Bush/Cheney must have known what was in the 9-11 Commission Report before it was on CSPAN. Yet they both chose to contradict it - publicly.Wha?

Ex-U.S. Diplomats, Military Officers Urge Bush's Ouster
A group of 26 retired U.S. diplomats and military officers said Wednesday that President Bush should be voted out of office in November for damaging U.S. national security interests and America's standing in the international community.

Still Torture
When Pogo said "We have seen the enemy and it is us," he was talking about a different war, a different time. Yet the truth of it still rings. When we become the enemy, it becomes impossible to rationalize the war. When Bush becomes Hussein, who is the war criminal, who has the moral highground to prosecute?

Bush Looks To Vatican For Support
"George W Bush's blood lust, his repeated commitment to Christian beliefs and his constant references to 'evil doers,' in the eyes of many devout Catholic leaders, bear all the hallmarks of the one warned about in the Book of Revelations--the anti-Christ."

Powell Admits Big Mistake, Again
The Annual Terrorism Report issued April 29, 2004, boasted Terrorism was waning - and the Bush administration used the report in its re-election campaign. Problem is, it's another Bush Lie.

A Rationalization of Torture
These people who set about legalizing inhumane behavior on behalf of a president on whom they confer absolute power to order it at will are as shallow and evil as the cliché spouting president who demanded it. The slippery slope to totalitarianism started in a conference room where coffee and donuts and microsoft power point presentations on torture and pain were on the agenda one morning.

More on Abu Ghraib
Here's an interesting bit - Ms. Rice's memo: March 30: The other big news at work was a message sent to us from Ms. Rice, the National Security Advisor, thanking us for the intelligence that has come out of our shop and noting that our work is being briefed to President Bush on a regular basis.

Torture
While Americans sit slack-jawed staring vacuously at hour after hour of Stepfords shuffling past a deadman's coffin (on two coasts, no less!) a few, very few, are asking the Attorney General why the hell he thinks Torture is legal. And what news show is covering it? The Daily Show!

Stranger Than Fiction
Take this quiz and be amazed at just how low this Administration will go -- then get out and work for John Kerry.

Bush Lawyers Decide Torture Okay
Despite it being illegal in the United States, illegal according to the UN Charter, desperately immoral and certainly un-Christian, Bush's administration has declared unilateraly that it's OKAY to torture people. Welcome to Rome.

Is Torture Legal?
Randy Paul has offered us a Civic Lesson. Had the President's lawyers served him better, they would have done the same. Unfortunately, they were looking for an answer the chimp wanted, not what he should have had.

Ron Reagan Jr Blasts George Bush Jr
April 14, 2003 "Salon.com" -- The Bush inner circle would like to think of George W.'s presidency as more of an extension of Ronald Reagan's than of his one-term father's. Reagan himself, who has long suffered from Alzheimer's disease, is unable to comment on those who lay claim to his political legacy. But his son, Ron Jr., is -- and he's not pleased with the association.

Blood In The Water, and Everyone Can Smell It
The proof is in the details of the U N draft resolution

INCOMPETENT NINCOMPOOPS!!
Under the Bush Administration, American Intelligence has become an Oxymoron. The Vice President’s office is leaking like a sieve, and neither Congress, the FBI or the Justice Department is willing to rat him out! Cheney’s Friend and Confidante Chalabi Reportedly Told Iran That U.S. Had Their Code

MEA CULPA, INDEED
The New York Times issued a mea culpa this week, finally recognizing their part in enabling the dysfunctional appetites of our alcoholic President in his drive to War with Iraq.

Bush Denies Knowing Chalabi-Boy
George Bush has what my mother calls "a convenient memory." He knew Ken Lay when Kenny-Boy was providing him with a jet airplane when he was Govenor of Texas, but didn't know him when the ENRON stocks hit the fan. Now it's Chalabi-Boy's turn...

Nothing To Fear
Franklin Roosevelt said "We have nothing to fear but Fear itself." Sixty years later, George Bush's administration is hard at work trading on Fear - counting on it - to get Re-elected.

Gore's Theme for Bush Administration: Incompetent
The former vice president and Democratic presidential candidate attacked what he called the Bush administration's ''twisted values and atrocious policies'' in a speech Wednesday at New York University.

Bush Avoids Voices of Protests at Yale
"I'm profoundly worried about the way this country is going," Anne Tyler Calabresi, 69, of Woodbridge, said. "And I'm furious about the lies George Bush has told to us again and again. He has led us into a war that is destroying our reputation around the world and creating implacable enemies around the world that we didn't have one year ago."

Bush Takes On Iraq
I'm still a little confused as to why Bush believes he is responsible for Iraq's Peace and Freedom. Who elected him? Who asked him?

Feeling Safer?
Al-Qaida Said to Have 18,000 Militants for Raids

5/20/04
A couple things: Bush now says he doesn't think he should have a say in who will be the leader of Iraq. Chalabi's house is searched, his computers confiscated.

The Newsweek Article
Dropping Geneva would allow the president to "preserve his flexibility" in the war on terror. His reasoning? That U.S. officials might otherwise be subject to war-crimes prosecutions under the Geneva Conventions... which were defined to include "any grave breach" of the Geneva Conventions.

Gee, I sure hope Iraq turns out okay...
George Bush broke it, now we own it. Let's have a garage sale and see if we can find a buyer.

Truth In Court
Did the Administration Lie to the Supreme Court? Hard to Believe, but apparently, it's true.

Bush Contradicts Self At His Own Press Conference
Any kid who ever told a lie knows that the hard part is keeping the lies straight. You know, you've got to remember what you said before so you don't contradict it, or you'll get caught. Well, Bush is caught.

Bush's Lies
What makes anyone think anything good will come of a lie? Satan is a Liar, a Thief and a Murderer. Anyone who lies will steal and murder.

Bush, Rumsfeld, Cambone, Boykin, Miller
Because of the now famous photos taken at Abu Ghraib, the US Senate is finally taking up their job of oversight. Some interesting people keep popping up. One of the most interesting names that popped up at Tuesday’s Senate Armed Services Committee hearing was United States Army Lieutenant General William G. Boykin, the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence.

This Is A Hold-Up
Three and a half years ago a thief walked into the White House and said "This is a hold-up. Empty your pockets and put everything you have into this bag." In six months, he's finally going to leave.

Just How Bad Does It Have To Get?
Stripped of all rationales for the Iraq invasion, Bush declared America's moral superiority over Iraq. America was going to remake Iraq in our image. We were going to deliver Democracy, Freedom, Human Rights. Instead, we've delivered death, occupation, rape and humiliation. The Hearts and Minds of the Iraqi people are set against America and Americans. The roses we were supposed to be greeted with are thorns. Abu Graib was Saddam's torture chamber, and now it's ours.

Bush Doesn't Apologize
Today, the President of the United States, George W. Bush, told you he thought the abuses that were exposed were "abhorrent." However, he stopped short of actually taking responsibility for them or apologizing. Instead, he tried to assure you that these kinds of abuses in no way represent the American People and he said he wanted to get the facts and prosecute those responsible. President Bush lied.

As Suspected, Bush Went to Iraq for the OIL
The Secret Iraq Strategy, a detailed 270-day schedule for an asset grab, tells us that, if Bush didn't go into Iraq for the oil, he sure as hell ain't leaving without it.

Kerry Strikes Back
After taking it in the chin for two weeks, John Kerry says he's not going to allow Bush and his surrogates to set the agenda. 'Bout time.

Ambassador Joe Wilson's Book
THE POLITICS OF TRUTH In 1991, President George H. W. Bush called Ambassador Joseph Wilson a "True American Hero." In 2003, President George W. Bush’s White House tried to intimidate critics and punish Wilson for what he knew -- and finally made public -- about the administration’s lies before the invasion of Iraq.

I Admit It, I'm At A Loss
I cannot for the life of me understand what the upside is to the W Bush Administration. Could someone please explain to me what he's doing right?

Bush's Bankruptcies
It occured to me that we all do best what we've practiced most. And to that end, I was wondering, what does Bush do best? Well, he bankrupts things.

Sovereignty
Its not that I want to ignore this, but as long as words remain meaningless to this administration, why bother?

Bush's Goal - Rule the World
Bush told a gathering of journalists - whom he called ""The Politburo," "We're changing the world for the better." I have a couple questions...Who is "we" and What does "better" look like?

Wave Bye-Bye to the Free Press
The Bush Years may be remembered, more than anything, for its pressure on the Free Press. Amazingly, the Free Press isn't pushing back.

Peggy Noonan’s Pearl Harbor
Unfortunately, a nightmare scenario involving another terrorist attack in November, followed by four more years of Bush and a return to the draft in 2005 is, at this point, not as far-fetched as it once seemed. Nor is the prospect of frightened Americans goose stepping along, snarling, once again, at anyone who dares to peek beyond the smoke and the mirrors.

BUSH-CHENEY 2000 TO PAY $90,000 CIVIL PENALTY
The Federal Election Commission (FEC) has entered into a conciliation agreement with Bush-Cheney 2000, Inc. resulting from the failure to report to the FEC receipts and disbursements associated with its recount activities. Bush – Cheney 2000, Inc. has agreed to pay a $90,000 civil penalty.

Spin
To the Editor: David Brooks (column, April 17) says, “To his enormous credit, the president has been ruthlessly flexible.” Yet when John Kerry demonstrates this quality, it is defined as “wavering” and “indecisive.” A curious contradiction. JULES GLASER Santa Rosa, Calif., April 17, 2004

Will Bush Be Responsible?
The truth of how the US got into the War on Iraq is becoming more and more clear. The TIP and other Internet News Outlets have speculated for years, and now the proof is leaking out of the Administration. Will Bush be made to take responsibility?

Midas Touch
Yes, this Prince of a Bush, Crowned by Antonin Scalia, has the Midas Touch. Everything he touches turns to ashes, though.

Why the Press Conference, Why Now?
It occurs to me, that by having an all out Press Conference this week, then appearing with Blair, the President is out in front of questions to come.

Imagine
George W Bush and Tony Blair performed for the journalists today - the fifth time this week that Bush spoke to the press. He must believe his numbers are really hemorrhaging!

Molly Ivins
My, what a full plate we have here as a result of President Bush's primetime press conference. Most importantly, the president believes in freedom.

Iraq
April 1 - April 14: 91 Americans Dead, 40 Kidnapped. 800 Iraqis Dead. The President feels the need to Face the Nation.

Bush's News Conference
Bush announced he is ready to tell America what's going on in Iraq. How the hell does he know?

Massachusettes National Guard Told They Aren't Going Home
A National Guard Battalion of MPs were set to return to their lives when the rug was pulled out from under them - at least three more months.

In His Own Words
"A Country that hides things is a Country afraid of getting caught." GWB Early in Bush's Press Conference, he condemned Iraq and Libya, North Korea, presumably all of the nations in the Axis of Evil. But as he should know, when you point one finger at someone else, you point three at yourself.

White House Warned of Al Quaeda Hijackings Months before 9/11
As we knew a few weeks after the 9/11 incident, the FBI had warned of Al Quaeda's plans to hijack American Aircraft and had requested more resources and informtion. The Bush Administration did nothing.

FBI Very Active in Al Quaeda Investigation Months Before 9/11
The FBI Was very active trying to determine what particular threats Al Quaeda was planning and able to fulfill. White House blames the FBI for no apparent reason, for their inaction.

The Shit's Hit the Fan
Iraq is ablaze. Nearly one year after the President declared major military operations over, Iraq is more at war than it was during the initial invasion.

Incompetent or Malevolent
The Al Quaeda threat was identified during the first Bush Administration. It was kept at bay successfully for the duration of the Clinton Administration while diplomatic methods were used to resolve conflicts. When Bush took office he effectively did nothing about it except aggravate it with more aggressive international policy. It's not complicated.

America Won't Turn and Run
President George W Bush moves his lips and says America won't turn and run. But what is Bush's record?

Deanna Laney and George W Bush
Laney is judged insane and will get help. Bush is still perpetrating his crimes.

Powell, "Failed Intelligence", Gee, Ya Think So?
Secretary of State Colin Powell conceded Friday that his presentation to the United Nations in February, 2003 "may have been wrong."

Rice to Speak
Condaleezza Rice has finally agreed to testify in public, under oath. We'll see. I'm still skeptical. But then, I have my own take on the behind-the-scene shananigans in the Oval Office.

Is Bush Unhinged
Robert Higgs is Senior Fellow in Political Economy at The Independent Institute and editor of its scholarly quarterly journal, The Independent Review. He is also the author of Crisis and Leviathan: Critical Episodes in the Growth of American Government and the editor of Arms, Politics and the Economy: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives.

Don't like American Jobs being shipped overseas? Don't support the Bush Campaign - they use them pretty exclusively.

Censure Bush over Killing Americans and Iraqis for no Reason
Hundreds of Thousands of people outraged over Bush's lies about Iraq's ability to deploy so-called "Weapons of Mass destruction" are asking their Senators and Congresspeople to Censure Bush.

Bush Sees the Light - Legalism
In a Christian country, legalism - the theory that one has specific duties to perform in order to enter heaven - should have been discredited centuries ago by the apostle Paul, but reading has never been Bush's strong suit.

Salon.com - the New Pentagon Papers
Manufacturing a war is big business. Now we get to see how it's done - from the Inside.

Blix: Bush, Blair Knew They Were Hyping Case for War
So that's it right? They lied to start a war. Game over, he's got to go. Right?

Houston, We have a Problem
Kerry takes on Bush at home, sort-of, Texas, one of the states hardest hit by the employment problem.

Bush Capitalizes on 9/11 Sympathy and Makes Excuses
With no particular accomplishments to tout, Bush instead plays the terrorism card - again.

Did I Say There Were More Jobs?
Ooops. Sorry, mistaken. Revised my reports for December and January and thank God people are giving up looking for work because otherwise the unemployment rate would look REALLY bad....

190 Lies of Bush
Thanks to Reader Clarence Swinney

Four More Lies from the Lying Son of a Bush
The Bureau of Labor Statistics released its monthly Mass Layoff report yesterday, Feb. 27, which showed "there were more mass layoffs in January 2004 than in any previous January for the nine-years that such records have been kept" IF BUSH IS PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK - I GIVE UP, WHERE ARE THE JOBS, JOBS, JOBS?

Bush's Biggest Bungle
Nine months into his presidency, George W Bush was exposed by al Qaeda to be a world class bungler - by missing every indication he had of what would become known as The 9/11 Hijackings. A cover-up was initiated, and persists to this day.

Bush's 200 Million Surrogates
"I'm really proud of him. I love to have the opportunity to go around the country and talk about him." That's Mrs. Laura Bush talking to reporters. Mrs. Bush is talking to reporters because her husband won't.

Bush "Jumping In"
Jumping into a volatile election-year debate on same-sex weddings, President Bush on Tuesday backed a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage - a move he said was needed to stop judges from changing the definition of the ''most enduring human institution.''

Chalabi Scandal (Yes, Another One
Our Tax Dollars At Work - supporting the Hard-working Chalabi family - at our expense. Thank you very much, George W. Bush!

Jobs, Jobs, Jobs
President Bush has said he has three priorities when it comes to the economy: "Jobs, Jobs, and Jobs." I guess that makes Bush a three-time loser. For three years, U.S. workers have hemorrhaged jobs and if things continue as they are, he'll make it four for four.

Bush, Bremer, Iraq Founding Fathers
When asked what would happen if Iraqi leaders wrote into the constitution that Islamic Sharia law is the principal basis of the law, Bremer suggested he would wield his veto. "Our position is clear. It can't be law until I sign it," he said.

The Boy Who Cried Weapons of Mass Destruction
In 2001, George Bush claimed that there was a massive threat from a variety of nefarious enemies of the free world which was their ability to deliver "weapons of mass destruction." This story sounds familiar.

Molly Ivins Wants Us to Remember
Just for the record, since the record is in considerable peril. These are Orwellian days, my friends, as the Bush administration attempts to either shove the history of the second gulf war down the memory hole or to rewrite it entirely.

She's Baaaack
Helen Thomas, the First Lady of the White House Press Corps, has covered Presidents since John F Kennedy. She was not-very-politely asked to leave by Bush Press Secretary Ari Fleischer. Now, she's back. Today's exchange says it all:

Still AWOL
The President is trying really hard to stop the bleeding on the issue of his service in the Air National Guard. So far, though, he has only just scratched the scab. Now, its becoming infected.

AWOL II - Silver Spoon Service
One of the great things about being a rich service-person is that you still get paid when you fail to show up for duty while you're working on a political campaign or going to Harvard.

George Bush - The Lost Year
A nice analysis from axisoflogic.com.

AWOL? !
As is usually the case, there's more to this story than meets the eye - and George W Bush is using carefully chosen words to deflect inquiry. Nevertheless, the truth is slowly emerging.

Kean will Subpoena Bush
The 9/11 Commission is running out of time and patience. Held at arms length by the Bush Administration, chairman Thomas H. Kean has threatened to subpoena the President's Daily Brief.

President Sets Out Commission Task
On Meet the Press, President Bush defined his vision for the Intelligence Committee he just commissioned - and its not what you think.

BOOBS
Its the big story, isn't it? Chris Matthews, Wolf Blitzer, Robert Novak, Tim Russert - they've all exposed and re-exposed - ad nauseum, Janet Jackson's Boobs. The truth is, we're the Boobs.

Bush the Bull
Here it is, the first article about Bush the Raging Bull "He's been chomping at the bit for a while to get into the fray." -Charlie Black, Republican Strategist Can I laugh out loud?

Tom Daschle Answers Bush Budget
...the Administration has omitted essential facts and data that will have enormous consequences for our fiscal future and our economy.

Bush's Record
Reader CLARENCE SWINNEY contributed this article. Would you hire George W. Bush? Resume:

Moving Right Along
Bush Named Panelists in Iraq Intelligence Probe Personally, I thought the group would more closely resemble the 31 of Ronald Reagan's administration indicted, but we'll have to settle for these:

There was No Failure of Intelligence
US spies were ignored, or worse, if they failed to make the case for war. The truth is that much of the intelligence community did not fail, but presented correct assessments and warnings, that were overridden and suppressed.

Liar, Incompetent or Space Cadet?
"When politicians or government officials lie, reporters have an obligation not only to include the truth somewhere in the story or let opponents make a counter-charge, but to say forthrightly that the official has lied."

Excuses, Excuses
The next president, whoever he is, is going to have to pole vault over the piles of crap bush is leaving at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Join with Move On to ask Congress to Censure the President
Congress has the power to censure the President -- to formally reprimand him for betraying the nation's trust. If ever there was a time for this, it's now. Join our call on Congress to censure President Bush at:http://www.moveon.org/censure/?id=2298-178753-JGriuo83jen0Tg9HrRVtpw

Irony Polarizes Planet
The nomination of US President George Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair for a Nobel Peace Prize is, of course, ludicrous. It merely deepens the widening golf between those who favored the invasion of Iraq and those who were opposed.

Another Opening, Another Show
The Bush Administration is calling for an investigation into the Phony Iraq Intelligence Conclusion regarding WMDs. Another investigation for Bush to evade.

Oh Ari, Ari
Calling a white house press secretary a liar is a little like claiming a marathon runner has endurance, but Ari is a classic.

The Dog ate my Weapons of Mass Destructions
"When we see suffering, and tyranny, and starvation and brutalization, this nation will act," Bush said. "We've made some tough choices recently but all these choices are aimed at one thing, to make America more secure, the world more free, and the world more peaceful."

Leader or Mis-Leader
George Bush is in the eye of a Washington storm - Democrats attacking his administration from the left for misleading the nation about going to war - and Republicans attacking him from the right for the ballooning budget deficits.

Where's the Apology?
Other presidents would have liked to bully the C.I.A., stonewall investigations and give huge contracts to their friends without oversight. They knew, however, that they couldn't. What has gone wrong with our country that allows this president to get away with such things?  

Bush and Hussein
New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd sits George W. Bush and Saddam Hussein down on her analyst couch and discovers why so many died.

U.S. off to Afghanistan, again.
Just in time for the Spring Electioneering Season, Bush plans to send Americans Soldiers back to Afghanistan to hunt for Osama Bin Laden. Timing is Everything...

Bush, Alone, is Accountable
"Nobody will want to know better and more about what we found when we got to Iraq than this president and the administration," Rice said, but "Whatever the outcome the administration would not change its position that Saddam had to go."

The Kelly-Kay Nexus
David Kay is trying to help the President wriggle free from his responsibility for the War on Iraq. The Administration seems to think it can call it all an accident!

Bush Backs Away from WMD Claims
In a final reversal of the prime justification used for the war in Iraq, Bush admits that they might have been wrong.

Bush Wants the Facts, Belatedly
Today, nine months after invading Iraq, President Bush says he wants to wait to learn what the actual facts are. Too bad he didn't wait for the facts before invading Iraq.

Who Owes Who an Explanation?
The White House today backed out of its position that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (or even more than a blueprint for developing a program) after David Kay, the chief weapons inspector said that there were no such things. David Kay said, "I actually think the intelligence community owes the president, rather than the president owing the American people." Who owes who what?

Bush knows something we don't know
For three years, Bush supporters have been using this and other excuses. The jig is up!

Cheney vs Kay
Two reports published today contradict each other. Is it a question or who you believe? Or is Cheney still is his "My mind is made up, don't confuse me with facts" mode?

Bush is Out in the Cold
If the Shiites don't get their way, Iraq will be plunged into a civil war and the Americans will be stuck in the thick of it with no good reason to be there and no good way to get out.

If You're So Smart...
My father would ask me, "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?" when I was a kid. We'd all laugh, but it sunk in. Maybe Bush isn't so stupid.

The New Poll
The State of the Union?

State of the Union - 2004
What to listen for as Bush gives his fourth - and LAST State of the Union

Bush and Scott
Bill had his Monica. Now Bush has his Scott!

The Outrage Gap
George Bush and his advisors just don't get it! They seem outraged by former Secretary of Treasury Paul O'Neill revelations about the US attacked Iraq - not because they are true and reveal Power Drunk attitudes in the White House, but because O'Neill made them at all.

Bush Planned Iraq Invasion Before 9/11
With the last of the excuses now well out of the realm of possibility, shouldn't someone start wondering why we went to war?

So Bush Had To Reform Medicare, Huh?
Like we've said before, when Bush says "Reform"... WATCH OUT! The ink wasn't even dry on the paper before President Bush broke his promises to the Seniors and sponsoring legislators, adding a small item that insures seniors won't get prescription coverage.

FOUND! WMDs!
After taking the World to War in Iraq promising Weapons of Mass Destruction, Chemical and Biological, the Justice Department finally has their man - in TEXAS!

The Old Bait and Switch, Again
Bush uses the words of the Compassionate Conservative, promising jobs to immigrants. But his real game is more profits for his friends and contributors.

That was Then, This is Now?
In an article in The Nation, David Corn asserts that "When voters evaluate politicians, they care less about history than they do about present-day results and ask, what are you going to do for me (or us) now?"

God's Blessing Him
Pat Robertson, the effectual Pope of the Southern Baptists and Fundamental Branch of the American "Church" received The Word Of God and declared GW the winner of the 2004 election.

Pundits say voters have short attention spans. Liars rely on the truth of it. If we want our Democracy back, we need to prove them all wrong. Helen Thomas, the veteran White House journalist for the Hearst papers, help us to remember

And the Administration Goes on Lying
The nation''s official jobless rate is 5.9%, a relatively benign level by historical standards. But economists say that figure paints only a partial — and artificially rosy — picture of the labor market.

9/11 Kean Preliminaries - Administration Delay Hinders Progress
The Bush Administration again came under mild but inconsequential fire from an insider Thomas Kean, co-chair of the committee responsible for drafting the Homeland Security laws, who blamed the administration for unreasonably withholding critical documents.

Jose Padilla Held Hostage - Officially
Well, it's official. The Bush Adminstration can't take american citizens hostage. But they still are holding him. That's called kidnapping, it's a crime.

Thanksgiving Leaves a Bad Taste in the Mouths of the Troops
Stars and Stripes, the officially Pentagon-authorized newspaper of the U.S. military, is bucking for a court-martial. President George W Bush really has only one trick, but he plays it over and over and each time, like Lucy pulling away the football, the press falls for it.

The Bush Administration Repudiates International Law
George W. Bush deliberately and consistently ignores and brakes International Law. As he does, he sends a message to every criminal of every ilk in every country - SO CAN YOU!!

I'll Take Carni Games for $200, Alex
President George W Bush was in rare form this week. He managed to offend just about everyone who was paying attention. Unfortunately, the Talking Heads turned to Al Gore's endorsement of Howard Dean instead of keeping their eyes where they should be - on the Shell Game we now call Government.

We've Got 'im
Now that Saddan Hussein is in the hands of the Americans, what are we going to do with him?

Stop The Count
Sound Familiar? It's the tactic taken by the Bush administration during the 2000 election, and now is being employed by the hand-picked Iraqi ruling council - Stop Counting the Civilian Dead. I wonder who's idea that was?

Rumsfeld using Israeli Advisors in New Offensive
We know President Bush was a bad student, after all, he was drinking for the first 40 years of his life. But wasn't anyone in his administration paying attention?

Brainiac Strikes Again
Apparently Bush's Brilliant (albeit UNCONSTITUTIONAL)idea to give our tax dollars to American Parochial schools wasn't enough. Now, he wants to give our tax dollars to Indonesian Parochial schools - the Madrases teaching young Muslims to hate America and use their bodies as bombs to destroy Americans.

White House Wants Kerry to Apologize for Profanity
That's what the headline says. But before we go throwing stones, let's examine exactly what we're the headline is talking abut.

Bush Sells Iraq
We are talking about something called "sovereign debt." And unless George Bush has finally 'fessed up and named himself Pasha of Iraq, he is not their sovereign. Mr. Bush has no authority to seize control of that nation's assets nor its debts.

9/11 In Neverland
Think you're already amazed, alarmed or appalled enough by the state of US journalism today? Chew on this a while and think again.

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses
We've all heard them. Weapons of mass destruction, fighting terrorism, stop Saddam, bring democracy to Iraq. Yeah Right.

Good-bye, Mr. President: The Secret Resignation Letters
Arriana Huffington has published excerpts from her upcoming book, "Fanatics, Fools and Alpha Males," due in March, 2004. In it she quotes from actual letters of resignation - and fanticizes what the first drafts might have looked like.

Better Watch Out
We know this guy too well by now. He's up to something...What's he afraid we're going to see?

Bush Family Business II
We've written extensively about the Bush Family Business. As reported on FOX news, (Fair and Balanced, you decide) the Bush Family Business is PUBLIC SERVICE. However, that is just the TIP of the iceberg.

Bush Brings Midland to Buckingham
Anyone that's ever been to Texas recognizes the flat, dusty, treeless landscape. Some people love it, just as some love the desert. Others prefer the heavily forested mountains. Bush, apparently is a lover of the treeless Texas landscape and is exporting it every chance he gets.

Is Bush Beyond the Law?
The GOP preached and screeched for four years that no man, not even the President of the United States is above the law, remember? And went so far as to impeach a president for lying about consensual sex. This president lied about non-consensual WAR!!!

Mr Blair: "We stay until the job gets done."
Have Frick and Frack succeeded in turning worldwide attention away from the thieves in Washington and London and onto Baghdad?

A Safer and More Peaceful World
This is rich... Bush says when American Soldiers Invade Iraq they will be greeted by the Iraqis with flowers. So, Bush goes to visit the Queen (that's Elizabeth, of our closest ally, England) and has to take along what little remains of our Army to protect him.

CIA Finds No Evidence Hussein Sought to Arm Terrorists
The CIA's search for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq has found no evidence that former president Saddam Hussein tried to transfer chemical or biological technology or weapons to terrorists, according to a military and intelligence expert.

Frost and Bush discuss Weapons of Mass Destruction.

The President In His Own Words Part III
President Bush addresses the continued challenges of bringing peace to postwar Iraq, the possible repercussions of his policy of regime-change and preemption and the struggle to end violence between Israelis and Palestinians. The American leader also reflects on what lessons he has learned as president during this tumultuous time.

Unable to Establish an Iraq/Al Qaeda Connection, Bush Builds One
President Bush, introducing a new linkage between guerrillas in Iraq and global terrorism, said in an interview to be broadcast today that attacks on U.S. forces are partly the work of "mujaheddin types" and fighters seeking "revenge for getting whipped in Afghanistan."

A Parable
There was once a rich young man who, hearing of the beauty of the City of Baghdad, decided to see for himself. He invited his friends to come along, offering to pay their way. His friends, who had many times visited the city, accepted his invitation, though they were not so enchanted by the ancient capital.

Oh, What a Tangled Web We Weave...
Fear of a nuclear attack, 9/11 Payback, Weapons of Mass Destruction, Regime Change, Liberation of Iraq, Democratization of Iraq, Democratization of the Middle East...it’s taken a score card to keep track.

Bombs Over Baghdad - Again
Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage told reporters in Baghdad that the Bush administration was ''sobered by the problem'' of increased violence. 'Bout time the President sobered up.

U.S. Closes Diplomatic Missions in Saudi Arabia
For two weeks, President Bush has squeezed his cheeks as he assured Americans that everything is going just great in the War Against Terror. So well, in fact, that the terrorists have redoubled their arracks on US forces worldwide.

Americans RIPPED OFF Again
Each administration has its own character. Kennedy, Camelot. Johnson, Viet Nam. Nixon, Watergate. Carter, Iran. Reagan, Iran-gate. Bush I, Iraq. Clinton, Monica. Bush II, Anonymous.

One in Seven - Flailing Support
One in seven people now agree with George Bush's assessment that Iraq was involved in the terrorism which led to 9/11 and that the war could be justified on that basis.

Bush's Other Wars
The Bush Administration characterizes itself at war with Terrorism. The reality is, Bush is at war with History, Reason, even Truth. How long can the charade continue? Sidney Blumenthal exposes the Intelligence fracus before the Iraq war.

There's Only One Issue in this next election - Abortion
That's right. Not unemployment. Not gun control. Not health care. Not imperialism. Not Cronyism in the government. Not terrorism - Abortion.

Piling On
In a speech to university students, MSNBC host Chris Matthews characterized President Bush as a shallow-thinking, unlearned man who when confronted by aides with the decision about going to war with Iraq was given something to think about for the first time in his life.

The Lying Spreads to Condoleezza Rice
The administration's excuse for everything - pointing fingers - is now the modus operandi for the National Security Advisor. But the facts don't jibe with her spin. Damn, those nasty little facts.

Two Words: Emperor's Clothes
Paul Krugman must be hitting some sensitive nerves at the White House, because Krugman, a New York Times editorialist, has been the focus of Republican attack dogs for a month. Here is his latest column called A Willful Ignorance

The 9/11 StoneWall
AP Reports Even the ultra-conservative Thomas Keane is being stonewalled by the White House on the 9/11 Attacks. Why the cover-up?

140,000 Voters in Iraq Will Vote to Rid Us Of Our Madman
While Bush plays lip-service to his support of "our men and women in the Armed Service" he plays fast and loose with their lives, their liberty, their health and wealth.

Charity Begins at Home
Barbara Bush Calls Democrat Line-Up a 'Sorry Group' The very image of the pot calling the kettle black.

Bush Looting Our Future
George W. Bush is like a man who tells you that he's bought you a fancy new TV set for Christmas, but neglects to tell you that he charged it to your credit card, and that while he was at it he also used the card to buy some stuff for himself. Eventually, the bill will come due — and it will be your problem, not his.

Did Someone Say "Crusade"
Bush said it was a "Crusade" then claimed he'd mispoke. But did he? Americans are split about 50/50. Some believing the Iraq War was about Weapons of Mass Destruction, Terrorists and 9-11. Some believing its about Oil. Could it be a Crusade?

White House Officials Leak Bush's Order to Stop Leaks
At one point, the senior official said, Bush himself asked how bad it was. "This isn't as bad as [George] Shultz vs. [Caspar] Weinberger, is it?" he asked, referring to a legendary Reagan administration rivalry between secretaries of state and defense. One top official reportedly nodded and said it was "way worse."

KISS
The Justice Department asked the White House to hand over any information that could lead to the source of the leak to Rober Novak outing Valerie Plame. Let's make it easy, look at telephone records.

Bush Administration Set to Gut Endangered Species Act!
Capitulating to intense lobbying efforts by the zoo, circus and trophy hunting industries, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is attempting to significantly weaken the Endangered Species Act.

BUSH LEAVE HIS FOOTSTEPS IN THE SAND
Just as he has in each and every endeavor of his life, George W. Bush is leaving a trail of failure in his wake.

Bush - I lied - Again - So What?
It having become evident that President Bush doesn't care what people think, he came out and said it today. And while he did it, he lied again. I mean, come on, how many times do you have to lie on TV and get caught before you start thinking - jeez, maybe I shouldn't lie on TV.

David Kay - Sorry about the Progress Leaks, I was Wrong
Nope, still no weapons stockpiles, no evidence WHATEVER of a biological or chemical or nuclear weapons program. Apparently, it was all just a cruel ruse to get the people of the US afraid enough to back a war.

Different Lies - Same Story
With the death of David Kelly and the Hutton Inquiry, just about all the British Government Knew and was reporting to the British People has been discredited as known-to-be-false before the war. This includes the African Uranium story of which we are so fond here in the States.

Why All The Fuss
Novak''s Column: "Wilson never worked for the CIA, but his wife, Valerie Plame, is an agency operative on weapons of mass destruction."

What If?
I had a dream...that Putin and Bush finished their little conference. And afterward, they walked out of the Oval Office shoulder to shoulder to hold one of those double press conferences in the Rose Garden.

The Marshall Plan?
Did I hear Mr. Bush correctly? Did he compare his squatter status of Iraq with the Marshall Plan? In his effort to BAMBOOZLE the world body into supporting his ill-conceived adventure, Bush is comparing his Iraq invasion to World War II.

Wouldn't Recognize the Truth if it Bit Him On His Ass
George Bush's speech to the United Nations on Tuesday, 9/23/03, displayed the usual tone-deaf rhetoric that has become a hallmark of his foreign policy. While there were no outright lies, he was, as a British Cabinet Minister once said, "economical with the truth." Indeed, the president was positively miserly with the truth this time around.

Bush Takes His Case to FOX
Bush, known for his articulate defense of his administration - NOT - in an interview with Brit Hume called Ted Kennedy to task for his accusation of "fraud." HE DID NOT SAY IT WASN'T TRUE. You've got to listen carefully to Bush. In a few weeks, he'll be defending himself saying he didn't lie when he said Kennedy was "uncivil."

Ivins Hits Another Homer
The administration is now in The Full Ostrich on Iraq: Dick Cheney put on a fabulous performance last Sunday on Meet the Press, in which he insisted everything in Iraq is tickety-boo, right as rain and cheery-bye. I haven't heard anyone lie with such gravitas since Henry Kissinger was in office.

CNN Poll
  In retrospect, what do you think of Bush's case for war? 47% He deliberately misled the public 200,076 31% It was completely legitimate 132,138 22% He may have stretched a little, but the overall reasoning was sound 94,679 Total votes: 426,893 Note on Poll Results    

This Is Not A War, We Were Never Here
During the last six months, the Administration has backed out of every statement they made about the Invasion of Iraq - from Nuclear Weapons to Terrorism

Roadmap Dead - Isreal Puts out the Hit Palestinian Leadership
After the "roadmap to peace" was put forward by the Bush Administration, one thing promptly happened - the exact opposite.

The Lie was a Lie
Um, we mean, Bush's statement "That British Intelligence" believed that Iraq was seeking uranium from Africa turns out not to have been true. British Intelligence apparently knew that they weren't. Instead, it was the Prime Minister who believed it. So technically, the lie should have been: Tony Blair says that the Iraqi's are trying to get uranium from africa.

White House Admits Letting Bin Laden's out of the Country on 9/12
On 9/11 and 9/12 all the planes were grounded. A well-known but never admitted fact was that the Bin Laden family had several members in the country as of 9/11. During the mayhem, President Bush gave the okay for them to leave the country while the rest of the nations' planes were grounded.

The Bush Defense
President Bush Defended the Economy today saying "It could be worse." Well, yeah, duh. But as a matter of fact, it hasn't been.

Blair Lied, so Bush Lied
It's come out officially in the inquiry into the Death of David Kelly that the Prime Minister's office was "sexing up" the evidence, exaggerating their claims about the danger of the Iraqi regime in order to make a case for war.

Pointing Fingers at Bush
Bush is creating an unbroken record of Lies, Deceit, Obfuscation and Chaos, both at home and Abroad. He's failed in Foreign Policy as well as Domestic. Before the Bushies have time to create more disastrous history, Americans have got to wise up and remove this man and his minions from office.

Duped? Doped? Bush as the Victim
Americans now believe Iraqi ex-patriot and politician Ahmad Chalabi, may have had his own agenda in accusing Saddam Hussein of producing WMD and Chemical and Biological Weapons. Chalabi wants Hussein's job!

Right and Left Meet in Opposition to Bush Imperialism
Meet the "Committee for the Republic" formed to ignite a discussion in the establishment about America's lurch toward Empire.

The Worm Turns
Congress on hiatus finds the folks at home asking some hard questions: War, the Economy "Mainly, people want reassurance that the administration knows what it's doing," said Sen. Robert F. Bennett (R-Utah) The shift in public opinion on Iraq was noted by many in both parties.

Can This Fight Be Won?
President George W. Bush and his frontmen Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and Gen. John Abizaid, head of the Central Command are all on the hunt for reinforcements. With little luck. The Bush Administration has managed to alienate the entire globe since a short-lived period of good-will following the 9-11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.

More Lies from the White House
We all know there've been some whoppers coming out of the Bush White House. This one will cause untold thousands, maybe millions of American deaths.

US/Pakistan Agree NOT to Capture Bin Laden
In a suprise move, the US and Pakistan agreed not to continue the Hunt for Osama Bin Laden widely blamed for the WTC Bombings.

Losing the Peace - As in Afganistan, Iraq is Proving an Intractable Problem for the Bush Administration
With daily deaths and bombings by what the Administration claims are Saddam Loyalists (though it's never explained WHY there would be Saddam Loyalists, given that everyone wanted him out so bad), his popularity is waining before the all-important election year. The problem seems to be that the Bush Administration is incapable of finishing what it starts.

Bush's Other Unemployment Problem
Americans aren't the only unemployed people giving Bush a hard time. How about 400,000 unemployed Iraqi soldiers.

Millions of Americans now share a feeling that something pretty basic has gone wrong in our country and that some important American values are being placed at risk. And they want to set it right.

More UnDiplomatic Diplomacy Towards North Korea
His Boss called Kim Jon-il a "pygmy," a new low in international diplomacy. Now U.S. Undersecretary of State John Bolton throws fuel on the fire just as North Korea agrees to meet with China, Japan, South Korea and the US to talk about the Non-Proliferation Treaty Kim is ignoring.

Building a House of Cards
Bush's Lying Becomes Chronic Call me naive. But I still am occasionally surprised that George W. Bush keeps getting away with his dog-ate-my-homework presidency. The latest example was his press conference a few days ago, his first since March.

Often-Wrong Cheney
When the Whitehouse goes to Cheney to defend itself, you know something's gone wrong.

As Ridiculous as it is Grotesque
The Pentagon under Admiral John Poindexter has come up with a new way to profit from death and war.

The Rumor Mill
It's been going around that Bush has been holding the news of the Weapons of Mass Destruction and the Demise of Saddam Hussein for election-time. But if that's so, there's a lot of dying going on for it.

Bush's Consistent Failing - No Concern for the American Economy
With month after month, year after year and week after week losses of jobs, overall standard of living, quality of education and health care, Bush's vulnerability in the homeland is clear.

Tough-Guy Stance Not Working In Korea
North Korea continues to build its nuclear program while Bush continues to toughly refuse negotiation. At this rate we'll be involved in a cold-war with North Korea within a year.

Hadley Did It
So apparently it wasn't George Bush who "sexed up" his report of the immanent threat of attack from Iraq, it was Hadley. At least that's the story du hour.

No CIA Consultation on Bush WMD State of the Union Speech
Bush didn't consult the CIA on the inclusion of the Niger Uranium claim in his state of the Union Speech. Story now confirmed by Washington Post

Cliff-Notes Style Reading Gets Bush D- on State of the Union Address

Why won't this go away? Durbin Charges that WhiteHouse Pushed for Niger Uranium Claims
In a closed-door senate Inquiry we find that the CIA thinks that the White House pushed for the inclusion of the Niger Uranium Claims.

CIA Officials Didn't get Copy of State of the Union Address
Bush spokesperson said today that the CIA should have objected to the Niger-Uranium claim. This is contradicted by CIA reports to Congress.

Bush Told Tenet to Keep the Niger Claims In
IIn a suprise twist, the CIA had told the Administration not to use the Niger Intelligence which it knew to be phony. The Bush administration decided to keep it in themselves over Tenet's objections.

The Hard Questions If Tenet Told Blair Why didn't he tell Bush

150,000 Soldier Security Force
As two more soldiers are killed today in Iraq, Bush redefines security with what we usually mean by military occupation.

More DoubleSpeak
Lying About the War and Lying About Lying Somebody Put Him Under Oath!!

BRING 'EM ON!
Bush uttered these words, perhaps the most consequential words of his life, last July. What has been the effect? Are Americans going to forgive and forget this astonishingly arrogant command from our Commander in Chief?

The Anonymous Reuters Lie
Reuter's publishes more 'disinformation'. Intelligence anonymously reports Iraq 'pursues' WMD program. No details, no accountability, no sources, no news.

Iraq War is Over, but the Fighting Goes On

Of course, the New York times reported otherwise.

Write Your Congressman, and while you're at it, Sign the Impeachment Petition
The President took the nation to war based on his assertion that Iraq posed an imminent threat to our country. Now the evidence that backed that assertion is falling apart. Richard Butler, the chief U.N. weapons inspector in Iraq in the 1990s and a supporter of the war, recently wrote, "Clearly a decision had been taken to pump up the case against Iraq."

Gosh, D'ya Think They Might Have Lied
Bush Administration said we were in imminent danger of an attack, remember. Lest we forget...

Call for Impeachment Widens
While Bush narrowly escaped being dragged into Enron, it was not, in any event, his doing. But the war in Iraq is all Bush's doing, and it is appropriate that he be held accountable.

Three Excuses - Oops, did I say Iraq, I meant Syria
Now Colin Powell has directed the world's attention to Syria's harboring of 'war-criminals', weapons of mass destruction, and supporting of terrorists. Waid, haven't I heard this before?

Liberation Anarchy Iraq
As the US Military control over the area is secured, anarchy reigns as civilians reject their so-called liberation.

so that's it, no weapons, no saddam, no liberation
While many may consider this a great triumph, those of us who are watching carefully are wondering why no weapons were found, why Saddam was not captured (or at least his body found) and why the Iraqi's aren't happy to see us.

Three Diplomatic Mistakes
Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, the Kyoto Global Warming pact, and the International Criminal Court. What do they have in common?

Excuse Number II - Liberating the Iraqi People
So far the Bush Administration has presented three main reasons why we should force a regime change by war in Iraq. Their first reason - Weapons of Mass Destruction - appears to have been completely blown apart by their failure to find any and false reports that they had. What about excuse number II - Liberating the Iraqi People from Sadam's Despotism.

Haliburton Awarded Massive Iraqi Oil Reconstruction Deal
Cheney's friends at Haliburton were awarded a massive contract to help rebuild Iraq after the war was done. Bush requested 16 Billion to pay for the reconstruction.
