Just a bunch of spam. In 2011 some will thrive and prosper and others will despair and fail. Same as it ever was. No point in quoting whole articles or book chapters. This is only promotional bill posting not any kind of invitation to discourse. Misleading Topic title as well. ![]() I agree. Its a flippin blog for goodness sakes. Just opinion. |

where is all the hope and change? this sounds more like hopelessness and despair.. what exactly would it solve by putting bush and cheny on trial? just to make you and a handfull of others happy? Here is a small reminder I can google this all day and get the same results. (CBS) When no weapons of mass destruction surfaced in Iraq, President Bush insisted that all those WMD claims before the war were the result of faulty intelligence. But a former top CIA official, Tyler Drumheller — a 26-year veteran of the agency — has decided to do something CIA officials at his level almost never do: Speak out. He tells correspondent Ed Bradley the real failure was not in the intelligence community but in the White House. He says he saw how the Bush administration, time and again, welcomed intelligence that fit the president's determination to go to war and turned a blind eye to intelligence that did not. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "It just sticks in my craw every time I hear them say it’s an intelligence failure. It’s an intelligence failure. This was a policy failure," Drumheller tells Bradley. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/04/21/60minutes/main1527749.shtml take a wild guess who told him they were their... bush did not go to iraq himself and look, ya know? We've gone beyond ridiculous to the criminally insane. |

I would not call Iran, N Korea, China, Russia, or even Saudia Arabia our "allies". Well Russia and SA are more ally-like than the others but <ahem> we still have been known to have some points of disagreement. ![]() I agree that they are brutal police states compared to the U.S. and I am glad you cede my point. The U.S. is nowhere near nor are we ever likely to drift toward the kind of Govt and religious control exercised over the population in those countries thank goodness. Apparently no longer content to simply shill for a growing police state, Fox News decided to take what passes for the law these days into its own hands today, turning in a 46 year-old grandmother from Indianapolis, Indiana for having a “possible terrorist link.” The entire case against the woman, one Kathie Smith, appears to have been based around data culled off of her Facebook page and the content of emails they exchanged with her. The Department of Homeland Security in Indiana confirmed that their first information about Mrs. Smith was when Fox News sent them a video in which she allegedly makes “anti-American comments.” The case against Mrs. Smith is virtually entirely circumstantial, and is available, in all its grim details, on Fox News’ website. http://news.antiwar.com/2010/12/28/citing-facebook-posts-fox-news-turns-in-indiana-grandmother-for-terror-link/ Is Granny spry? ![]() Well thanks for pointing out this one. ![]() Nutjobs who "likes" the terrorist Anwar Al-Awaki on facebook? Granny should know better than to post pro-jihad videos and describe known terrorists as childhood friends if she does not want to be questioned at the airport or customs... ![]() "In the nearly six-minute video under investigation, Smith and her husband, known online as Salahudin Ibn Ja'far, 28, appear posing and hugging and holding weapons interspersed with photos of known and suspected terrorists and assorted jihadist propaganda, like an Awlaki sermon album cover. There also are photos of German Taliban Mujahideen -- German nationals who have formed their own splinter group within the Taliban -- and mug shots of members of the Saarland cell of Islamic Jihad Union charged with plotting failed terror attacks against U.S. targets in Germany, including a 2007 plot to bomb the U.S. Air Force base at Ramstein." I doubt she is a serious threat but hey we don't joke about bombs while going through airport screening now do we? ![]() And Foxnews paranoia about Granny makes the U.S. a Nazi-leaning, police state how exactly?? HAHAHAHAHA.... ![]() http://www.foxnews.com/us/2010/12/28/indiana-grandmother-muslim-convert-investigated-possible-terror-link/#ixzz19SlPSqzR |
